Chapter 651 Menacing Attack

thump! thump! thump!

Accompanied by the sound of heavy and powerful footsteps, under the cover of rows of strong heavy infantry holding giant shields at the front.

The long-distance phalanx composed of densely packed longbowmen has already begun to draw their bows and arrows, pointing the arrows straight into the air, making a throwing posture.

In the blink of an eye, hundreds of arrows were ready to be fired under each city wall, and each sharp arrow shone with a cold light under the bright sun.

Woo...

A dull horn full of murderous intent sounded, and the attack began.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The piercing sound of feather arrows piercing the air one after another.

Almost at the same time, all directions of Kongqing Town were covered by arrow feathers galloping across the sky.

These nearly 2,000 feathered arrows may not be considered a huge thing for a giant like the Mountain Fortress, but they are enough to pose a huge threat to a small city like Kongqing Town... It was originally like this.

However, due to Lei Xiao's advance arrangements, the ordinary infantry with weaker defenses had already hidden in the safe area under the city wall.

But now, distributed on each city wall are several ordinary heavy infantry squadrons that have already taken precautions.

The heavy second-tier heavy armor and second-tier giant shield are enough to withstand most of the arrows, so that only a few soldiers who were hit by several arrows at the same time were knocked down under the powerful impact force. On the ground, struggling to get up.

Since the first wave of feather arrows shot by the opponent was blessed by wind magicians who are proficient in auxiliary magic, compared with ordinary arrows, their range and power have increased.

Therefore, although our archers hidden in many archery towers counterattacked immediately, they were quickly suppressed by the opponent's second wave of arrow feathers due to the limited shooting openings and the lack of other long-range forces on the surface of the city wall. down.

Under the city wall, these enemy archers hidden behind the heavy infantry switched from the initial volley to continuous alternate throwing, leaving almost no chance for the soldiers on our city wall to breathe.

"My lord, the opponent's army is well-organized and well-trained. Although it can't compete with the army directly under the royal family, it can be regarded as an outstanding existence in the ranks of ordinary garrison troops."

In an archery tower on the city wall, Burt's sharp old eyes stared at the battle situation below the city, and said.

"It's true. With the same equipment, except for the veterans of Kongqing Town, those recruits who have not been recruited for a long time are definitely not the opponents of these guys."

Looking at the arrow feathers falling one after another from the sky, the Guanzhong who had just returned from the deployment swallowed involuntarily.

If it was placed in Kongqing Town before the lord's arrival, facing such an opponent, I am afraid that it would not take half a day before the place would completely change hands.

"And judging from the greedy expressions of these soldiers full of murderous intent, once the city is broken, I'm afraid it will definitely cause a **** storm in the whole city."

On the orange-white face, there was a stern expression, and the black eyebrows were tightly frowned.

"It seems that my spending money in Kongqing Town has already been coveted by these guys."

Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows lightly, also staring at the battle situation below the city.

During this period of time, whether it is the infrastructure construction, city defense construction of Kongqing Town, or a series of measures to benefit the people, I have tried my best to avoid being too ostentatious, and try my best to minimize the money-making ability, but even so, it is still early It has already become famous.

"If you are too talented and rich, you will be envied by others."

Thinking of this in his mind, Lei Xiao pondered for a while, and then said to the commander of the defense army of Kongqing Town in front of him: "Guanzhong, please describe to me the overall defense situation of Kongqing Town in detail."

"Lord Lord, the four walls of Kongqing Town are in charge of the four garrison captains Vasson, Yar, Oss, and Wood respectively."

"After careful reorganization, the garrison brigade under the command of these four people is composed of more than half of veterans and strong recruits, and their combat effectiveness has reached the highest level at present."

The people in shining armor immediately bowed and saluted, and responded: "In addition to the garrison brigades under their respective command, the four of them were also assigned to a second-tier guard squadron directly under the city lord's mansion and two treatment teams to cooperate with the defense team." Army defends."

"Of course, according to the orders of the lord, most of these soldiers are currently hiding in various parts of the city wall and have never shown their faces."

"As for those who stay in the city, the magician squadron under the lord's command, the two princess guards, and the trade fair guard squadron have been guarding the city lord's mansion, granary, and other important facilities in the city with small teams as units. This part of the soldiers is under the charge of Lin."

Not long after, a more urgent horn sounded, and the general attack began.

Almost at the same time, all the unused catapults under the four walls were pushed out.

One by one, the round stone bombs, which were doused with special alchemy potion and emitted thick and billowing smoke, were carried into the "spoon" of the catapult by well-trained soldiers.

call! call! call!

As the strong ropes were cut off by the sharp blade, a large number of smoking stone bombs flew into the air in an instant and smashed towards the city wall at high speed.

However, most of these rolling heavy stone bullets did not fall on the city wall, but on the wooden deer village that had already been laid under the city wall.

boom! boom! boom!

In the smashed deer village, sawdust mixed with mud splashed and fell apart, and a large amount of black smoke rose up with it.

Not long after, under the second and third waves of stone bombs, the surrounding area of Kongqing Town was almost completely covered by thick black smoke, so that the soldiers on the city wall could not see clearly what was going on under the city. scene.

"My lord, this is a smokescreen sent by the enemy!"

A dense energy shield suddenly appeared around the orange-white body to block the smoke, and then said: "It seems that the enemy is obviously trying to do some tricks!"

"Don't worry."

Lei Xiao, who was also covered with an energy shield, smiled lightly and said, "We can just follow the plan, it seems that the enemy is preparing to throw himself into the trap."

After speaking, all the subordinates who surrounded Lei Xiao started to act one after another.

Under the city wall, looking at the city surrounded by thick black smoke, Ansem's fat face was full of excitement, and he said to Baldwin beside him: "As expected of the Earl, so the defenders on the city become blind!"

"Let's go, let me bring death and fire to this city that dared to disobey His Royal Highness."

Bodwin smiled subduedly and waved his hands. The soldiers who had already surrounded him immediately rushed towards the city wall with siege ladders on their shoulders.

In an instant, the earth trembled, shouts of killing rang out everywhere, and the soldiers besieging from all sides roared and launched an attack almost at the same time, the momentum was extremely astonishing.

It wasn't until the red-eyed soldiers were about to rush to the city that the arrow rain of the longbowmen in the back row gradually extinguished.

Then, under the cover of heavy infantry, they began to advance in the same way, so as to further support the soldiers who attacked the city and prepare to rush into the city gate at any time.

As long as the soldiers rushing up the city wall open the city gate, everything will naturally be settled.

Looking at the situation where the victory is almost guaranteed, the faces of these soldiers are even more murderous. When they enter the city, what awaits them will undoubtedly be innumerable gold and silver treasures!

"An idiot who dares to oppose His Highness the First Prince will only die! How can these **** stop us?"

Among the earth-shattering shouts of killing, Baldwin, who was holding a long-handled ax, was the first to bear the brunt, and a strong killing intent surged out along with his galloping.

"Soldiers, step down to Kongqing Town, use a sharp sword to end everything you see, everything will be ours!"

And Anzem was not to be outdone. Surrounded by two strong men of the third-order magic system, his fat body was supported by the wings of magic, and he also flew towards the city.

The actions of the two ~ made the soldiers beside them feel morale boosted, and they rushed towards the city wall with scarlet eyes staring at each other.

It didn't take long. Surrounded by their own personal guards, the two commanders and deputy commanders of the vanguard corps rushed up the city wall together with the first echelon.

With a monstrous killing intent, when the two led their respective elite squadrons through the thick black smoke, ready to kill, they were stunned by the sight before them.

In the second half of the wide city wall, a young man with an indifferent expression stood there quietly surrounded by followers who hardly emitted any energy fluctuations and densely packed golems and puppets. are waiting for their arrival.

"Everyone, welcome to my city. Since you're here, let's save your life."

The young man grinned, and suddenly showed a very bright smile.

Before Baldwin and Anselm could react, a monstrous terrifying aura suddenly surged out from the entourage behind the young man, and swept towards them whose faces gradually changed into horror.
