Chapter 934 Big Push

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    This unexpected situation did not disturb Du Yuanzhi.

    I saw that he directly took over the command of Gaoling City Wall, and then shouted loudly

    "Don't worry about anything else, all the three-bow bed crossbows will focus on attacking the siege bed crossbows and catapults on the opposite side, replace the return guns with gravel shotguns, and attack the enemy's main force!"

    "At the same time, the archers and crossbowmen are ready, and as soon as the main force on the opposite side comes within range, they will start suppressing firepower!"

    The issuing of Du Yuanzhi's order allowed the soldiers on the wall to find the backbone at once.

    To put it bluntly, the opponent's general siege method of "big push" is disturbing them, and at the same time putting pressure on them, so that the soldiers operating the defense equipment on the wall do not know which one to fight.

    It's easy to break it, just hold it steady.

    Soldiers come to block, water comes to cover, as the defenders of the city, they have the advantage of the city wall, so there is really nothing to be afraid of.

    The closer the distance, the official start of this war!

    On the top of the wall of Gaoling City, a three-bow crossbow opened fire frantically, trying to destroy the enemy's siege equipment that threatened them.

    Such a clear-cut style of play gave way to Owen, who was in the rear, clearly aware that his "big push" did not seem to have much disruptive effect on the defending force in front of him.

    But it doesn't matter, the big deal is to fight hard, and he is quite confident about his siege army.

    The three-bow bed crossbows of both sides are carrying out crazy long-range strikes on each other.

    For a while, it was hard to say who had the upper hand.

    During this period, the main force of the Europas also held their shields high and steadily advanced towards Gaoling City.

    After waiting for the opponent's main force to enter their firing range, the return artillery arranged on the top of the Gaoling city wall finally opened fire, and the overwhelming rain of stone bullets directly turned into a powerful suppressive force, smashing towards the enemy troops outside the city  .

    At the same time, the archers and goblin crossbowmen on the wall fought one after another not to be outdone.

    It has to be said that this long-range firepower is simply astonishing, and it puts a pressure on Owen, who was originally full of confidence.

    But it wasn't enough to scare him.

    The infantry units under his command are basically composed of large shield soldiers and shield axe soldiers with both offensive and defensive balance.

    Every soldier is equipped with iron-covered shields, helmets and other armor, all of which are designed to allow them to rush to the wall against the long-range firepower from the opposite side.

    As long as the distance is shortened to that point, the rear troops on the opposite side are basically useless.

    Of course, before that, his own rear troops will spare no effort to cover the main force!

    "Archer troops, all shoot arrows and suppress the wall!!"

    Owen yelled in Europa with a strong accent.

    The sweeping rain of arrows flew directly towards the wall of Gaoling City.

    At the same time, the catapult that entered the attack range also began to throw huge boulders quickly, and in the process of bombarding the opposite city wall, it kept making violent muffled noises.

    "Do you need me to lead troops out of the city to meet them?"

    Seeing the intruders getting closer and closer outside the city, Guo Zhen quickly asked Du Yuanzhi.

    "Not for the time being. The intruder's forces overwhelm us. Going out of the city to meet them will inevitably cause a lot of casualties. It is more beneficial for us to defend the city wall."

    While speaking, Du Yuanzhi quickly gave orders to the soldiers on the side.

    "Be prepared to throw rolling logs and rocks, and pay attention to the ladders coming up from the opposite side!"

    In the time between speaking, the main force of the enemy has already rushed to the city.

    On the top of the wall, the guarding soldiers who had been waiting there for a long time, followed Du Yuanzhi's order resolutely, and greeted them with rolling logs and stones.

    During this period, a large number of opponents' ladders also hit the wall.

    The first reaction of the soldiers who noticed this was to push the ladders down.

    However, the truth is not that simple.

    They found that one end of the ladder was fixed with a metal hook, and when it was on the top of the wall, the hook was buckled on the top of their wall like a claw.

    In addition, there are several soldiers supporting there under the ladder, and it is not so easy to push down the ladder for a while.

    Those Europa soldiers held shields in one hand and climbed quickly on the ladder, making them look like nimble monkeys. In a short time, they?Close to the top of the war-torn wall.

    Du Yuanzhi, who was aware of this situation, quickly signaled the infantry on the wall to rush forward to meet him.

    With the help of a large number of ladders, a large number of Europa soldiers rushed to the wall, and a melee on the wall began.

    The whole situation has completely fallen into a stalemate of consuming each other.

    This fierce siege battle lasted until the evening before it ended with the temporary retreat of the invaders.

    As the night darkened, the combat conference room of the Gaoling City Barracks was still lit with fire.

    Du Yuanzhi frowned deeply and looked at the post-war statistics in front of him.

    Logically speaking, after such a fierce siege battle, the number of casualties of the opponent's siege troops should be absolutely not too small.

    However, the facts are completely different from what Du Yuanzhi expected.

    In the process of cleaning up the battlefield after the battle, he found that the number of enemy soldiers' corpses was much less than he expected!

    "Iron skin"

    At this moment, what Du Yuanzhi was holding in his hand was an enemy soldier's helmet.

    At the moment of starting, he could clearly feel a metallic texture.

    According to the craftsmen in the city, the enemy is covered with a layer of iron on the armor.

    This approach is not complicated, but it effectively increases the defensive capabilities of these armors.

    This is obviously the main reason why the opponent's casualties are so small in this battle.

    And the fact is indeed the case, Owen pays great attention to the soldier's 'defense', or in other words, the ability to survive on the battlefield.

    A soldier can only create value if he is alive, what use is there if he is dead?

    It is precisely because of this concept that the troops under his command are basically shield soldiers.

    At the same time, although it was already night, the intruder's field camp was still brightly lit.

    The engineers who went out with the army are repairing the siege equipment damaged during the day.

    The medical soldiers are also treating the wounds of the wounded soldiers.

    In the tent, he took off his heavy armor. At this time, Owen was eating military rations while looking at the casualty report in his hand with a slight frown.

    The casualties of this first round of siege battles were higher than he expected.

    The firepower of the defending city on the opposite side is indeed a bit fierce.

    This time, I may have picked a hard bone.

    However, this first match was nothing more than a tentative skirmish for him.

    ? While getting to know the opponent's background, it is his purpose to consume the resources of the opponent's city defense.

    This is a one-month war.

    It is necessary to take a long-term view and count backward step by step.

    And the trump card of this wave is obviously still firmly in his hands!
