After this round of attacks, the barbarians on the city wall have become panic-stricken, their military morale is low, and they are ready to mutiny and flee at any time!
The leader of the alliance can only ask all of their soldiers who are temporarily unable to fight to withdraw from the city and replace them with another group of people who have not experienced the war to replace their defense, lest the city wall be breached for this reason.
However, they certainly did not expect that these crossbow formations were far from the end. Next, there would be more destructive trebuchets, crossbows and other engineering equipment that were even more powerful for Chen Qiang.
Throughout the day, the entire city wall was occupied by roaring boulders, which continued to fall like meteors. In order to defeat these barbarians at once, Zhong Yu mobilized his 1,000 catapults from the rear and prepared enough boulders to serve as ammunition. .
These catapults and boulders could be made without consuming luck points and could be made entirely with the technology of the Three Kingdoms. However, Zhong Yu was throwing them at the barbarian city as if they were free of charge.
The entire city was covered with the remains of buildings that had been dug into deep pits or destroyed by boulders. There was blood everywhere on the city walls. It was a scene caused by the corpses of barbarians being crushed into minced flesh by boulders.
This scene lasted for him for three full days. Huge boulders were thrown into the city every hour, every minute, every second, day and night, without any rest. Until three days later, all the trebuchets and ballistae were thrown into the city due to the long time. The work will only stop after it is completely scrapped.
At that moment, the entire city was in a state of disrepair, with numerous walls collapsed and huge boulders piled up everywhere inside and outside the city, blocking traffic.
And it's not like those barbarians have never thought of organizing elite soldiers, summoning a group of people with extraordinary strength to break out of the city, implement a beheading tactic, and directly destroy these trebuchets, so that Zhong Yu's army will have no more means of siege. Can implement primitive tactics such as ant attack and siege.
But without exception, they were all repelled by Zhong Yu's crossbow troops who were preparing to protect the trebuchets outside the city, using waves of arrows that could penetrate their fighting spirit. The goal was not achieved, but they were even lost. A lot of manpower.
Of course, in order to repel those barbarians with extraordinary strength, the crossbowmen who originally had more than 10,000 people were killed by more than 300 barbarian assault teams, which was a heavy loss.
After the barbarians discovered that this method did not work, they gave up immediately and quickly returned to the city before the enemy army came to surround them. They only lost more than fifty people who were killed or injured when they were hit by the crossbow array.
He never came out after that, but hid in the city and waited for Zhong Yu's army to use up their trebuchets and boulders, and then they would come back to calculate the general ledger.
This time came quickly. Three days later, when he saw that the morale and strength of the barbarians had been severely damaged, Zhong Yu finally ordered the army to go out and have a decisive battle with them.
The two armies made an appointment together to set up their positions on the plain and engage in an upright decisive battle. Zhong Yu did not need those siege equipment, and the barbarians could not hide in the city and be cowardly turtles, and directly used their own bravery to fight. A win or a loss.
Flags are flying and the wind is howling. On the battlefield, there was a sea of people. The two sides were divided into two camps, each lined up. On one side, there were more people and well-equipped soldiers. Every soldier suddenly looked excited and full of fighting spirit. There were 200,000 of them, but they were Zhong Yu’s army. .
The other side was much miserable. There were no uniforms. Many people just wore an animal skin and rushed to the battlefield with a wooden weapon in their hands. The number of people was also much smaller, only more than 10,000. Nearly 20,000 people.
Many people still have injuries on their bodies, and their faces are a little pale and frightened, but some people have anger and fighting spirit on their faces, full of expectations for this war, but in general, the morale, equipment, and personnel quality of both sides are barbaric. People still seem to be at a disadvantage!
The decisive battle began soon. With the orders from the leaders of both sides, soldiers from both sides entered the frontal battlefield one by one, fell into the battle formation, and began to fight for their own destiny in this meat grinder!
When the front only relied on their own personal martial prowess, many barbarians had some advantages at first, because there were many extraordinary powers with fighting spirit in their army.
Using these people as vanguard soldiers to carry out small-scale tactical breakthroughs brought a lot of trouble to Zhong Yu's army, which had never experienced such personal bravery and was so powerful that it was unbelievable.
However, the well-educated officers under Zhong Yu quickly reorganized the fighting spirit of the soldiers, allowing them to cooperate with each other to kill, and held back those with extraordinary power with their lives.
As the war progressed, batch after batch of soldiers were filled in. The small number of barbarians soon discovered that they had no one to fill the battlefield and make up for the gaps in the front lines of all parties!
The barbarians, who were at a numerical disadvantage, were soon surrounded by an increasing number of Zhong Yu's troops. They were besieging them from all directions. The number of casualties suddenly increased, and the situation on the entire battlefield became precarious.
Seeing that his army would collapse and be annihilated if it continued like this, the leader of the Edel tribe roared angrily, led his three hundred personal guards as the last batch of reinforcements, and went to the battlefield to support himself!
As a fourth-level warrior, the leader of the Edel tribe is naturally not comparable to those of ordinary third-level players. As soon as he came on the scene, he opened up the situation.
He led his guards, who had undergone rigorous training and had strong discipline and reached the first level of strength, to quickly break through the imperial army that came to stop them. They broke through the entire army formation in one fell swoop and gave Zhong Yu a large army. caused great hindrance to its operation.
And the clan leader showed great power, waving the heavy sword in his hands wantonly. Every time he fell, he would take away several lives. However, after a while, hundreds of people died in his hands, and this number is still there. The efficiency of saving several lives every second increases rapidly.
The soldiers behind the clan leader also used their clan leader to disrupt the organization and coordination of Zhong Yu's soldiers, and took advantage of the situation to cover up and kill them. With their first-level strength, they really had a great effect.
A big gap was opened in the entire defense line. Wherever the barbarian army passed, not a single Zhong Yu's soldier could survive. Thousands of soldiers in the entire battlefield either fled or died.
In this way, wherever the leader of the Edel tribe passed, the imperial soldiers who had long been frightened by him gave way to a road wide enough for his three hundred troops to pass, allowing him to run wild throughout the battlefield. , the situation on the battlefield instantly deteriorated.
In other places, the barbarian soldiers who had been beaten back steadily because of the small number of people on their side, saw that their leader was so brave, and instantly defeated the imperial soldiers who they thought were difficult to defeat.
Their morale was greatly boosted, and their fighting spirit suddenly rose. They once again relied on the bloody courage in their bodies to kill the enemy on the opposite side, and for a while suppressed Zhong Yu's army.
And all of this is not the most terrifying thing. What is really terrifying is that the clan leader led his personal guards and targeted Zhong Yu’s attack, intending to capture and kill Zhong Yu in one fell swoop, thus defeating this disparity in strength. war!
