The human ladder suggested by Gongsun Liang really played a big role.
Using the bodies of their comrades as ladders, a large group of coalition soldiers stood at the same level as the top of Yaoshan City and started fighting.
The soldiers of the Golden Crow tribe on the top of the city and the coalition soldiers on the ladder all formed a neat military formation, like two copper walls and iron walls, clashing fiercely together. Spears and halberds pierced each other, broadswords and heavy swords slashed at each other, heavy axes and flails slammed together, and heavy tower shields squeezed and grinded against each other, constantly emitting dazzling sparks.
The weapons stabbed hard on the shields and armors. The defensive runes on the shields and armors lit up, and each warrior's body was shrouded in a faint light curtain. The weapons also lit up with a dazzling light, and the weapons with various destructive runes attached hit the defensive barrier, constantly making harsh sounds.
The warriors on both sides were equally elite, and their strength and cultivation were also very different, but soon everyone discovered something was wrong!
The weapons of the coalition soldiers slashed hard at the Golden Crow warriors. The shields and armors of the Golden Crow warriors were as stable as mountains. No matter how hard the coalition soldiers slashed, their bodies would shake slightly due to the heavy impact. The armor and armor on their bodies, The shield in his hand was not damaged at all.
When the weapons in the hands of the Golden Crow soldiers slashed at the coalition soldiers, the fire splashed and the sound was much louder. Firelight burst out. Seeing the shields in the coalition soldiers' hands cracking in large numbers, the armor on their bodies continued to break. , as soon as the soldiers from both sides came into close combat, a large group of coalition soldiers had their shields shattered and their armor pierced, and they were killed and injured in large numbers by the Golden Crow soldiers.
Broken bodies fell from the top of the ladder, and many coalition generals roared with fear and anger.
Obviously, the shields and armors worn by the coalition soldiers were more than one level worse than the weapons worn by the Golden Crow soldiers. Compared with the ordnance on the Golden Crow soldiers, the armor and weapons on the coalition soldiers were as fragile as if they were made of wooden boards.
The sharp-eyed wizard discovered that the runes flashing on the armor and weapons equipped by the coalition soldiers were wrong. For example, a set of the most basic defensive runes should be composed of thirty-six serially nested rune restrictions. When the armor of the coalition soldiers is attacked, the number of defensive runes that light up is obviously not enough!
If the number of defensive rune restrictions is wrong, a complete rune nesting cannot be formed at all, and an effective rune array cannot be formed. The armor's defense will definitely be greatly weakened.
It was just that the number of defensive runes was not enough. What made the wizards dumbfounded was that they found traces of many gravity runes in the weapons of the coalition soldiers - and the only use of these gravity runes was to increase the power of the weapons. weight!
In other words, a set of armor originally weighs only three hundred kilograms. After adding the gravity rune, the weight of the armor can be increased to one thousand kilograms!
No one would be stupid enough to add gravity runes to the soldiers' armor. Even if there were, they would be anti-gravity runes, which would help reduce the weight of the armor, allowing soldiers to wear thicker armor and provide stronger defense!
Originally, an ordinary soldier could only wear heavy armor one inch thick. After adding anti-gravity runes, some important defensive parts of his armor could be thickened to more than half an inch. In this way, the defensive power of the heavy armor could be increased by at least several times. ten times!
No one is stupid enough to put gravity runes on the armor to make the armor heavier. This does no good to the warriors. It will only make them move slower and greatly weaken their combat effectiveness!
"What's going on?" A general of the Gaoyang clan suddenly grabbed a clansman next to him and took off his armor. Grabbing the thickest breastplate, General Gao Yang picked up his sword and slashed it down. Hearing a 'click' sound, the five-inch-thick breastplate was easily split open. This seemingly thick and unusually thick breastplate was among the It was actually four inches empty!
The breastplate looks like five inches, but is actually only one inch thick!
With such a thin breastplate, coupled with cut-and-dry defensive runes, how can this armor have any defensive power
The existence of those gravity runes is to increase the weight of the armor, making the soldiers wearing these armors feel that this is a real set of heavy armor forged from pure alloy! So that no one would notice, these armors are all hollow!
"I'll fuck you and kiss your mother!" Seeing this set of hollow breastplates, the generals of the allied forces were all shocked.
They suddenly raised their heads and looked at the men of the tribe who were fighting with the Golden Crow warriors at the top of the ladder. The weapons in their hands could not break through the armor of the Golden Crow warriors, but the Golden Crow warriors easily stabbed them with the spears in their hands. It can penetrate the bodies of five or six coalition soldiers!
"What the hell is going on?" The generals of all tribes were furious. They snatched sets of armor from their own tribesmen and split them open with weapons on the spot. As expected, these armors with bright appearance were all made of Hollow!
Hollow, hollow!
The five-inch thick breastplate has four inches empty, which is quite conscientious.
Those less important shoulder pads, arm guards, knee pads, combat boots, etc. are simply cast-in-one metal shells with two thin layers of iron on the inside and outside, which have no defense at all.
"These armors, let our tribesmen wear such armors on the battlefield?" The generals of all tribes went crazy, and they roared loudly.
These armors are all 'high-quality products' that the newly ascended Emperor Xu deployed from the human race's warehouses. Is this the so-called high-quality armor
Emperor Xu's rise to power was inseparable from the support of the major clans, so Gongsun promised that Emperor Xu would provide a sum of military supplies from the public treasury of the human tribe alliance to arm private soldiers for the major tribes that supported Emperor Xu!
All the armaments for this expedition to the tribal alliance in the Yaoshan Territory were provided by Emperor Xu, and they were all high-quality products from the public treasury of the Human Tribe Alliance! But the so-called fine products are actually all hollow shells!
"Emperor Shun would not do such a thing... Nothing like this has ever happened before... These ordnance..." The generals of all clans looked at Gongsun Lang who was supervising the battle from behind with burning eyes.
Gongsun Lang was grabbing Gongsun Liang in great embarrassment: "My brother, you killed me, Gongsun Xiong, damn, he is not my brother, he is my enemy! Where did these armors come from? how come?"
Gongsun Liang bared his teeth and looked at Gongsun Lang: "Before the expedition to Yaoshan, Master Xiong ordered all the major factories and workshops of the tribe to work overnight... Because it is a hollow product, it is very simple to forge, and it can be finished in one day and two nights. !”
A muffled sound of "dong dong" was heard, and a large group of tribal generals rushed to Gongsun Lang's side and surrounded him.
"Gongsun Lang, what's going on with these armors and shields?"
"You're just going to fool us with these junk?"
"This is murder. Do you want to kill all our people?"
"You have to give us an explanation, you have to give us an explanation!"
Gongsun Lang rolled his eyes and suddenly howled miserably, spitting out blood and fell to the ground.
