The ninth battle (2)

With every shout, a black rain of arrows and caltrops were spit out from the city walls of the defense. The soldiers who had lost the protection of the skin were howling and screaming under the blow of the arrow rain, running around to avoid, and even disrupting the pace of their comrades. However, when they entered the hell of the enemy's best strike zone, it was not easy to hide. The place where the flaws exposed was like a fast magnet, firmly attracting the enemy's attack points. Each crack of the skin always brought a crazy rain of arrows, and the entire position was suddenly in chaos, and the layout of the attacking party was disrupted.

Standing on a high mound, Kaman coach Miley was watching the battle coldly, with silver hair as snow as snow. The gentle breeze gently brushed the silver hair on his head, wrapped his arms, and his face was as calm as if he was always watching a beautiful face.

"Master, the enemy's caltrops are extremely lethal to our skin, causing great losses to the soldiers. There is some chaos ahead. We..." An adjutant glanced at the leaders of the corps standing silently behind the commander and quietly stepped forward.

"Order the catapult and the archer to push forward, focus on attacking the opponent's catapult area, move the arrow tower closer to suppress the opponent's archers, and also order the catapult to install oil bottles to attack appropriately. The archers of the arrow tower cooperate to focus on attacking the opponent's catapult." Miley calmed down as if he had even moved his eyes from the front.

"Yes, Grandmaster." The adjutant replied quickly.

"Order the front line commanders to organize on the spot and protect the shield soldiers. They must complete the tasks and do not retreat in the face of the battle. Those who violate the order will be executed on the spot without asking for instructions." Miley's voice became even colder. The adjutant who heard it seemed to be stabbed by the cold wind that came from hell, and his strong body couldn't help but shrink.

After the adjutant's figure leapt away on the hill, Miley took his gaze from the front line, with a faint smile on his lips, and asked loudly: "What do you guys think? It seems that the Derlock still has a try. It seems that we all underestimate each other."

The few people behind him dared not interrupt for a moment. After looking at each other, Earl Dominic, the commander of the Seventh Corps of the Empire, answered respectfully. He was promoted to Earl by the Empire for his excellent performance in the offensive and defensive battle in Jiayuguan. This was a rare honor among the imperial generals. He was grateful and deepened his belief in serving the country.

"Master, although we defeated the coalition forces of the Tanghe people and the Gerok people in the Western Front Battle, there seemed to be only two field divisions of the Tanghe people and several army corpses of the Gerok people. They were the strongest Wang Family Imperial Guard Corps and suffered the loss of one soldier and one soldier. Now they rely on the city. Morlington is not only the capital of the Gerok people, but also the last hope for all of them. If the trapped beasts are still fighting, they will definitely fight to the death. We really cannot take it lightly." Dominic was full of respect for the old commander in front of him, not only him, but who is not the case with his colleagues?

"Haha, Dominic, you are still the same as before. You have not changed at all. You are mature and persistent, and you think twice before you act. It seems that the Prime Minister and Old Nick and I have made the same comments on you." Miley laughed loudly, not taking the unfavorable situation in front of you at all.

"However, what you said is true. They are desperate. Now they are desperate and will definitely make a last-ditch effort. I am not worried that we can take down Molington, but how to deal with the Jerokes while minimizing the damage to our living power is worth our careful consideration. However, since it is a war, there will inevitably be sacrifices. I am afraid that the city in front of us will be solved without bloodshed. "Merley looked at the other people again and asked casually, "Hullley, what do you think?"

The one named after Miley was Viscount Hurley, the commander of the Fourth Corps of the Empire. Although he was a great nobleman in the Empire, he was an unknown illegitimate son. He did not reluctantly admit his identity until his father died. He was ashamed of this and refused to recognize his family. He was promoted to Viscount with his tenacious perseverance and outstanding military achievements.

"When we go back to the Grand Marshal, the Marquis Dominic said it very well. The Grand Marshal also said it just now. The Derlocks seemed to be quite prepared. As soon as we used our skin, the enemy used caltrops to deal with us, causing us huge casualties. I doubt that our internal information was obtained by the enemy's spies, otherwise the enemy would not be able to be so thoroughly prepared for the response. You must know that the production of caltrops cannot be done in a day or two. This also shows another point that the enemy may have conducted quite detailed research on us a long time ago, and we were prepared for it. We may not have suffered minor damage in this battle." The man with a tough look on his face bowed respectfully.

"Well, Grand Commander, Bei Yi also agrees with the opinions of the two commanders, but Bei Yi believes that the element that determines the outcome of the war is not the one or two new weapons. Moreover, although the caltrops pose a great threat to the skin size, they probably do not have much reserves, but we are fully prepared. It is impossible for an isolated city to last long without reinforcements. As long as we fill the moat, I think their doomsday is coming." The one who followed the words was a young military-style general standing beside Hurley, with a eagerness to try. Although Kaichu expressed his agreement with the opinions of the two commanders, the second half expressed his tactful dissent.

"Haha, the younger generation is so terrifying, Torey is so magnificent." After a haha, Miley commented on the opinions of the people, making people wonder what he actually thinks. Just when the people were looking forward to his opinions, he turned his attention back to the battlefield.

The situation on the battlefield has improved under the strict supervision of the commander. After all, it is a first-class military power. The quality of the army can be fully demonstrated at this point. After the initial panic and the commanders' full command and arrangement, the soldiers' emotions quickly stabilized. The oar and shield soldiers flocked to fill the gaps as much as possible, and the soldiers who controlled the leather straps quickly pushed the leather straps from the second and third lines to the front line, in order to resist the arrows and flowing stones falling like raindrops. The soldiers pushing the carts reorganized and quickly advanced to the moat in the established order.

At this time, the motorized arrow tower that received the order began to quickly advance towards the city wall. The crossbow and catapult car had also entered the long-range strike range of the defensive party. At the same time, they also had the ability to attack the defensive party on the city wall. After a while of turmoil, Kaman's powerful strike ability was reflected.

After several test shots, the catapult cart and the crossbow cart quickly entered the state. Although they were attacked by huge rocks from the top of their heads from time to time, how much impact did this have on them? With each order from the commander, the stones, oil bottles, and crossbow arrows swept towards the wall like hurricanes, bringing a huge impact to the defending city. Many catapults placed on the walls were either destroyed by huge rocks or hit by oil bottles. The rockets tilted from the arrow tower followed like maggots attached to the bones, which immediately caused a large number of catapults, not only burned a large number of catapults, but also affected nearby arrow holes and castles.

The burning fire burned wherever the oil flowed everywhere. The fire demon vented its power frantically, burning people when he saw people, burning things when he saw things, and even the miserable castle was hit by oil bombs and caused a fire. The soldiers in the castle became a pile of coke in just a few minutes.

This tragic scene seriously affected the morale of the defensive soldiers. Seeing some unfortunate soldiers being flocked by oil and swelled by flames, rolling and slumping on the city wall, but still unable to extinguish the flames. Let the raging flames burn the flesh and blood on their bodies, the companions next to them could only watch the unhelpful love and prevent the companions who fell into the abyss from implicating themselves at the last moment. The miserable scream was enough to make anyone present creepy. In a last resort, the battlefield commanders had to cry and kill the soldiers who were helpless and pushed them down the city wall. Their painful howlings were indeed an extraordinary torture to the nerves of other soldiers. Some soldiers even fell into the wall and died under the stimulation of this sound.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the crossbowmen on the approaching archery tower also concentrated their strength to attack the enemy archers who were already in chaos on the city wall at almost the same height. The crossbow arrows erupted through the powerful torque force of the machine spring swept past like a wheat cutting machine. The huge impact force penetrated the soldiers' bodies fiercely, and the plasma and brain marrow splattered everywhere, forming a strange blood-fire battle scene. The archers without protection were like heavy rain and storms. After a gust of wind and rain, only corpses in the pool of blood and wounded soldiers crying for help were left.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Balins felt like a knife, but the long-term battlefield had already trained his nerves as if they were cast as iron. He had already predicted the enemy's cruelty and made all kinds of preparations. Although he did not expect the enemy to launch such a fierce attack as soon as he came up, he still looked as usual. On the one hand, he ordered the soldiers who had been prepared to quickly extinguish the flames with sand, and on the other hand, he also ordered the archers on his own side to adjust the attack direction and use the rocket to focus on the opponent's arrow tower.

This move was effective soon. Although it was coated with fireproof paint, it was made of all wood. Under the attack of rockets with oil-soaked rockets, several arrow towers were quickly ignited and a raging fire was ignited. The huge towering arrow tower became a fire kiln that bought people's lives. The narrow passage inside the arrow tower made the soldiers in a mess unable to escape at all. Heart-wrenching sounds filled the entire battlefield. Until the huge arrow tower that had been burned fell to the ground and turned the soldiers into ashes, the tragedy was over.
