As the barbarian phalanx gradually advanced, the killing force leaked from Tongkou City not only did not decrease, but also became more serious. Mu Wutao knew the soldiers of Longxiang Army and was not afraid to fight them. Even eager to fight.
The first wave of stone bullets fell to the ground one after another when they were still a long way away from the city wall, causing ice and snow to scatter outside Tongkou City. They did not even touch the edge of the west wall of Tongkou City, and they were just a source of ridicule.
Grandma He would not let him go. She spread her giant wings in anger, ignoring the rain of arrows fired from the demon barbarian's front line. A pair of iron scale claws grabbed the left wing of the demon-winged barbarian and tore it off fiercely. , the blood feathers scattered all over the ground, and then flew back together slightly, barely being entangled by the strong man among the monsters.
The remaining Demon Wing Scout soldiers fled to their own formations, never daring to come up again.
Compared with the majestic city walls of Hengshan, Guanhe and other cities, which are often thirty or forty meters high, the walls of this city re-erected at the mouth of Tonghe River are not even three meters high, which is by no means high. The elite warriors of the tribe They can even rush over with one leap.
The individual strength of the human generals is still a bit weak, but dozens of people, thirty or fifty people, using dense halberds and indestructible shields, can still suppress the capable barbarians. Under the city walls.
"This is the power of ordinary people!"
At this time, standing on the city wall of Tongkou City, whose defense was far inferior to that of Guanhe and Hengshan, Wu Jingyin looked at the army of demons and barbarians gradually approaching the city, and his heart palpitated.
A group of demon-wing soldiers dodged one after another, but the leader of the demon-wing barbarian just folded his wings in front of him and came forward without dodging.
This places extremely high demands on the strength of the parts used to make the sling crossbow.
When all kinds of monsters lined up in a phalanx, roaring, or advancing solemnly, filling his field of vision, he still couldn't help but feel thirsty.
Mu Wu Tao was far less brave than Muller and others, but he used his strengths and avoided his weaknesses. Over the years, he specialized in witchcraft and followed the path of witchcraft and barbarian practice. He even spent a lot of money to purchase a large number of sects from merchants who were willing to trade with monsters and barbarians. Ancient books, wanting to get a glimpse of the mysterious cultivation method of Yanzhou Sect, he also dabbled in military formations and military techniques, and knew that the pressure that the soul felt at this moment was the killing force that could only be gathered by the elite tiger and wolf divisions. .
War birds are extremely precious and have too many uses. They will not easily participate in the bloody massacre. However, they will not allow the enemy's demon-winged scouts to fly directly to the sky above Tongkou City to show off their power.
Afraid of the terrifying power of heavy-bore crossbows, the main force of demonic barbarians crossed the Tong River from the west and invaded Tongkou City. In addition to cutting down trees and building a large number of large shields and shield carts, they did not dare to get too close to the city wall in the early stage. A dozen hastily built catapults were pushed up, rising and falling, throwing huge stones towards Tongkou City with the sound of howling wind.
Even though Tie Kun is annoying, Muller has to admit that sometimes some of his tactical suggestions do have merit: giving up the gap and fighting for sections of the iron and stone city wall with the generals of the Longxiang camp is the way to go. Their chance to win.
Grandma He's figure was the fastest, as if a golden rainbow light was flying towards her, and suddenly stopped in mid-air. Thousands of golden rays of light were seen, shrouding dozens of demon-winged warriors.
Liao Yunkui and Wu Jinglin led their troops to guard Beicheng. In order to avoid miscommunication, Liu Chun stayed by Chen Hai's side and was responsible for the communication between the two sides. Seeing the weak offensive of Yaoman in the west, he was filled with emotions. .
"Fight! Fight! Fight!" Mueller couldn't stand Mu Wutao's sarcastic eyes, and roared an order, asking the northern and southern wings to launch a general attack at the same time.
The stone bullet did not lose all its kinetic energy when it hit the ground. It would continue to roll forward with inertia for two to three hundred meters before stopping. At this distance, the monster warriors were knocked upside down, and there were several simple catapults. , was directly washed apart and turned into a piece of rotten wood.
Although Tongkou City was not completely surrounded, leaving dozens of large or small gaps, many barbarian generals were worried that these gaps might be traps deliberately left by Long Xiang's army.
This demon-winged barbarian can cultivate a pair of scale wings to be more indestructible than gold and stone, and his cultivation is not weak.
Grandma He dodged lightly and circled in mid-air, then flew away with a chirping sound, and continued to fly high into the sky to monitor every plant and tree on the battlefield.
Grandma He was furious. She waved her wings continuously and rushed towards him with wind and thunder. She opened and closed her giant beak and pecked hard at the steel wings of the demon-winged barbarian.
"Buzz buzz", the horn sounded continuously, bang bang bang, the earth trembled, and more than two hundred wilderness elephants were once again driven from the rear to the forward line...
Muller, who was personally supervising the battle in the west, gave the order with an expressionless face at this moment. He mobilized 3,000 soldiers from his headquarters. Facing the howling north wind, they wore strong armor and roared to cover a dozen catapults and continued to move forward. Advance.
The demon-winged barbarian general is not bad at all, but how can he be a match for Granny He in the air? He was beaten to a pulp within three or five blows, and he didn't dare to fight, so he had to run away to his own formation.
However, the manufacturing principle of the catapult is very simple, but it is not easy to throw a stone projectile of one to two hundred kilograms or even hundreds of kilograms two to three thousand steps away.
Mu Wutao squinted his eyes and looked at the black and blue city wall in front of him.
The principle of the weighted sling crossbow is extremely simple. The demon beast is not a monster with low intelligence.
Wu Cheng originally asked him to come over to show his goodwill, but with his bravery, he did not refuse.
Or maybe, as Tie Kun had guessed, the heavy-bore crossbow consumes so much energy that even the Longxiang camp can't afford it
Only by rushing forward, the sling crossbows on the inside of the city wall would not pose any threat to them.
Muller on the ground could see it clearly, and he became angry. He grabbed a giant axe, exhaled loudly, and from a distance of thousands of steps, the giant ax whirled with electric light and slashed towards Granny He.
At this moment, Wu Daoyin's left shoulder sank intuitively. With a sudden movement, he subconsciously unsheathed the Cloud-Zhanying Sword behind him with a "crack" sound. He wanted to prevent the enemy's sneak attack, but found that Qi Hanjiang was standing behind him.
Mueller sent out the Demon Wing Scouts to reconfirm the location where the heavy-bore crossbow might be hidden, but it was obvious that the limited Demon Wing Scouts in his hands were unable to break through the air defense net formed by the Longxiang Army's War Bird Battalion. …
Mueller had been extremely tall before, nearly a foot tall. At this time, he roared to the sky, his thick muscles expanded rapidly, and the dragon's shadow writhed, and finally integrated into Mueller's body, making his body even stronger than before. With his bare feet and a black iron battle axe, he took the lead to kill at a gap in the west city of Tongkou.
"..." Mueller bit his fangs angrily with hatred.
At this time, from the battle formation of barbarians on the opposite side, dozens of Demon Wing tribesmen flew out and flew over quickly.
Wu Daoyin watched helplessly as he saw the formation of demons and barbarians, with more than a dozen large or small gaps torn open in front of his eyes, as well as lumps of blood and flesh that could not be avoided.
If you want to fight, you must put all your chips on the table without hesitation. Success or failure will depend on this.
At this time, perhaps they can only do what Tie Kun suggested. Regardless of where the Longxiang Army deployed the more than ten heavy-bore crossbows, they just attacked from all directions. Longxiang Army only had a dozen in hand. It is impossible to take care of all corners with a heavy-bore crossbow.
"Mueller, you said that the enemy has extremely terrifying heavy-bore crossbows. You have suffered setbacks before, but why haven't you shown up yet? Isn't this an excuse you made up to cover up your previous defeat?" Mu Wutao asked sadly. He still did not forget to put pressure on Mueller.
Up to this time, the defenders had not used heavy-bore crossbows. Could it be that the defenders no longer bothered to use such sharp weapons as heavy-bore crossbows against them
Without waiting for Chen Hai's greeting, Grandma He, who was hovering in the sky to monitor the battlefield, came forward with dozens of war birds to fight.
The marching demon barbarian formation was stagnant and chaotic for a while, and then streaks of fiery red and khaki brilliance scattered from the bone staffs held by the wizards and barbarians accompanying the army, and waves of manic and bloody auras filled the barbarian soldiers. Making amends in the battle formation made the blood of the barbarian soldiers boil and their fighting spirit expanded, allowing them to ignore the pain and dispelling the fear in the hearts of the barbarian soldiers.
Sections of Tongkou City's walls that are stronger than gold and stone can be used for defense by the generals of Long Xiang's camp. But if they can capture these walls and start street battles based on these sections of walls, they can suppress Tianji to the maximum extent. The power of the chariot, but first they must be able to capture this section of the city wall.
Dozens of sharp golden rays of light that resembled sword energy struck it, sparks were flying, but the pair of iron wings were not damaged at all.
Long Xiang's army had won several victories before. He thought that the monster army had been defeated. At least this winter, he would not think of storming Tongkou City. Deep down in his heart, he also looked down on the huge front line of Guanhe and Hengshan in the past. The demon of pressure.
Only then did Wu Daoyin realize that he had lost his composure and had fallen into Qi Hanjiang's eyes. He wanted to defend himself, but seeing the contempt revealed in the corners of Qi Hanjiang's mouth, he felt ashamed for a moment. The corners of his mouth wriggled a few times, but he did not say anything. What words come.
Because of the fear of heavy-bore crossbows, many siege methods were not used. This made the barbarian soldiers fighting on the city have to rely on the most primitive tactics to fight against the well-trained battle formations of Long Xiang's generals on the city wall, resulting in extremely high casualties. It was so tragic that Muller was weeping in his heart after looking at it, but could he press more war beasts and soldiers up and find a breakthrough point through the gap in the city wall? Or should we first conduct a closer reconnaissance of the defenders' deployment within the walled city
What kind of elite force was this? Mu Wutao placed a heavy mark on Long Xiang's army in his heart.
The sky was gloomy, the north wind was sharp, and the clouds were getting thicker and thicker. Under the gloomy sky, three square formations of barbarian soldiers slowly approached Tongkou City from the east, south, and west directions, surrounded by simple war equipment.
At this moment, a desolate horn sounded, as if the music of death was playing between heaven and earth.
In particular, since the Blackstone Khanate established itself on the west coast of the Vast Sea, it has also captured a large number of human craftsmen and attaches great importance to the manufacture of palaces and weapons. Therefore, it is not surprising that catapults appear in the demonic battle formations.
The Longxiang soldiers on the west city wall responded calmly. Even on the wall that was only seven or eight steps wide, they were strictly required to form small battle formations ranging from a dozen to thirty or fifty people.
…
Wu Daoyin was filled with emotion as he stood on the city wall. He thought to himself, how terrible must one's cultivation be to be able to catch a thousand-jin falling rock thrown from three thousand steps away from the front? Even if he were to stand in front of the huge boulder coming with the force of wind and thunder, the defense formed by several high-level seal talismans would probably be destroyed at once.
The dozens of heavy sling crossbows deployed by Long Xiang's army in the west city wall have long been ready to go, full of the desire to drink the blood of demons and barbarians.
However, when he saw the thousands of Longxiang soldiers standing on the city wall, Mu Wutao felt an inexplicable pressure that was difficult to dispel.
"There should be changes next." Chen Hai said calmly.
Taking advantage of the interval between the catapults firing stone projectiles, thousands of barbarian soldiers gave up their reliance on a dozen crude catapults and rushed towards Tongkou City together, setting up crude wooden ladders on the low buildings. The city wall was directly attached to the city, and they had to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the guards on the city wall.
Seeing the fierce battle in Tongkou West City, Muller did not dare to relax a little, and constantly dispatched elite troops to strengthen the offensive. At the same time, he was also paying close attention to the development of the situation on the entire battlefield.
"The army becomes powerful and gains momentum!"
This is a real counterweighted stone crossbow. Crossing the sky 2,500 steps wide, dozens of stone bullets that are thicker than a stone millstone hit the demon and barbarian battle formation diagonally with incomparable accuracy. .
Not to mention other things, when thousands or tens of thousands of barbarian soldiers blocked the gap, at this time, dozens of people were crushed out of the city in Tianji chariots. What a terrifying scene it was
Mueller was abrasive, but he was not stupid.
"The demon barbarian's extremely accurate spear throwing, and the crazy fighting method that is almost crazy and unable to feel pain after being stimulated by the blood ritual witchcraft | have made us suffer enough over the years, but look at their siege of Tongkou City today. , I am really much more reserved, it seems that I was really scared by the heavy crossbow."
Seeing that Wu Daoyin was also a powerful person in the late stage of Mingqiao Realm, but was so devastated when he saw the barbarian soldiers attacking, Qi Hanjiang smiled and said nothing.
The auxiliary soldier cut the rope, and the stone bullets in the ammunition bag came out, drawing a beautiful and cruel arc in the air, and fell into the monster formation.
