Chapter 45: Fire Goblin
On the city wall, Weiy controlled a crossbow platform. The bow strings on the crossbow platform continued to bounce back and forth, shooting arrows into the goblin phalanx. Although he did not systematically learn how to aim the crossbow platform, for those under the city wall,
With such a dense concentration of goblins, even a six-year-old child shooting randomly here can bring down a large number of goblins.
It seems that because the crossbow platform on the south city wall did too much damage to his army, the goblin leader in the rear roared at the goblin soldiers beside him. The goblin soldiers waved the flags in their hands, sending a signal to the rear of the army, and this signal
It represents attack.
The catapults at the rear of the goblin army were equipped with projectile ammunition. Although dozens of catapults were destroyed by Doro City's magic crossbows the day before, the remaining dozen or so catapults still constituted the defense of Doro City.
A huge threat.
Seeing the signal ahead, the goblin controlling the catapult pulled down the launch rope. With the sound of the rope tightening, the flaming boulder flew towards Doro City.
"Cover!" Weiyi saw this and shouted to the team members around him.
Although it was Vey's first day, it could be said that he had just taken up the post, but the extremely high obedience of the Thunder Falcon Legion soldiers made them quickly adapt to Vey's identity. In addition, most of the soldiers in the seventh team had seen Vey yesterday.
strength, so they don't have much prejudice against Wei Yi in their hearts.
After hearing Wei Yi's order, the soldiers of the seventh team turned sideways without hesitation and hid in the cover behind the battlements.
A huge flaming stone ball landed more than ten feet away from Weiyi. The soldiers there were engulfed in flames before they could dodge in time. The stone ball almost broke through the city wall and hit the third wall near the city wall.
The layers inside the city wall stopped. The layers inside the city wall were all made of solid bluestone layers, but the soldiers below didn't know what was happening above, so they were crushed to the ground by the collapsed bluestone ruins and perished.
Wei Yi looked at the direction of the city wall that was hit by the stone ball, his eyes full of shock and anger. In just an instant, dozens of soldiers on the city wall suddenly disappeared, and dozens of lives left the world in the blink of an eye. The thick black
Smoke rose from the city wall, and Wei Yi's thoughts were brought back by the movement near the city wall.
This is the horror of war. Not only the south city wall was attacked, but several other city walls were attacked even more violently. Hundreds of thick black smoke rose above the walls, taking away each one like a dark cloud from hell.
life.
After hearing the siren, Rabir and Yadir separated. Rabir returned to the south city wall, while Yadil followed the city defense generals to garrison on the west city wall closest to the south city wall because of the condition of the west city wall.
Not optimistic either.
"Are you okay?" Wei Yi dusted off the dust on his body and called to Waverly with some concern.
"I'm fine." The pale Waverly raised her head behind the battlement bunker and signaled to Wei Yi that she was fine.
Wei Yi breathed a sigh of relief and looked outside the city, but his pupils suddenly became the size of a pinhead.
I don't know when two more protruding bamboo heads appeared on the edge of the city wall. The blue-white bamboo heads looked very abrupt on the iron-gray city wall. Weiyi had an idea, he picked up a soldier's ax and gently stretched out the battlement.
Outside, on the reflective side of the axe, a long ladder was set up on the city wall, and the goblin was quickly climbing up the ladder.
"Drona, the goblins are coming up!" Vey roared upon seeing this.
Not far away, Drona's expression changed when he heard Wei Yi's warning. After he quickly poked his head out of the gap in the battlements to observe, he quickly turned to the rear and shouted: "Karl, tell them to bring up the oil!
"
A soldier at the rear left in response. Soon, rows of soldiers passed through the narrow stone stairs of the city wall and climbed up the city wall carrying basins of dark yellow liquid.
"All fall down, I want to see what these bastards will do!" Drona spat and cursed loudly.
The soldiers trotted to the battlements, stood with one foot on the battlements, and poured basins of oil down the city wall.
The goblins who were still on the ground were okay, but the goblins on the bamboo ladder were not feeling so well. The oil was poured on the smooth bamboo ladder, and many goblins slipped without paying attention and fell from the bamboo ladder more than ten meters high.
Underground, you will be seriously injured even if you don't die.
Wei Yi took the bucket from the soldier behind him. He opened the lid of the bucket, and a pungent smell of oil hit his face. He frowned slightly and held the oil bucket, pouring the oil directly onto the bamboo ladder in front of him.
Weiyi heard the goblin roar when he fell from the bamboo ladder. A sneer appeared on his lips, and he muttered: "You will also suffer."
After Wei poured the oil, he threw the oil barrel directly off the city wall. He asked the team members beside him for a flint and steel. He quickly made a torch, stood up and lit the torch with the flint and steel.
"Captain, are you going to..." The soldier's eyes lit up, and he instantly understood what Wei Yi meant.
Wei Yi smiled slightly, nodded, and said: "Go tell other teammates and let them do the same."
The soldier nodded slightly excitedly and ran away.
Wei Yi stuck his head out, and at this time another goblin climbed up the bamboo ladder. The top goblin was only four or five meters away from Wei Yi. Naturally, the goblin also saw Wei Yi who stuck his head out, and he roared at Wei Yi several times.
He shouted angrily at Vey in goblin language.
Wei Yi smiled, stretched out the torch, and leaned on the oil-stained bamboo ladder. The goblin at the front suddenly stopped talking, and his angry eyes instantly turned to horror.
Flame plus accelerant plus bamboo, there is only one consequence.
In the blink of an eye, a tongue of fire enveloped the bamboo ladder from top to bottom. The goblin on the bamboo ladder screamed, his body was instantly surrounded by flames, and he fell into his companions below.
If you look at it from a distance, after the goblin bamboo ladders on Weiyi's side started to burn, bamboo ladders on the south wall were set ablaze one after another. It was obvious that other soldiers started to follow Weiyi's actions after seeing it.
With the oil poured from the city wall to fuel the combustion, the fire snake burned quickly along the oil traces, spreading under the city wall and forming a sea of fire. The goblins in the sea of fire screamed one after another, and many goblins were burning with orange-red flames.
He ran wildly for more than ten meters before falling to the ground.
When the soldiers on the city saw the goblins running away in panic, they couldn't help raising their weapons and cheering. Although it was only a small partial victory, it still played a big role in improving the morale on the south wall.
"Good idea!" Waverly came to Wei Yi and gave him a thumbs up.
Wei Yi extinguished the torch and said slowly: "They used flames before, and this time it is their turn to try the taste of flames."
The goblins built bamboo ladders to climb the wall under the cover of catapults, thinking that the humans on the wall would suffer heavy losses under the attack of the catapults. However, they did not expect that the soldiers on the city had already hid behind the bunkers to avoid a huge disaster.
A massive loss of combat power.
The basins of oil on the south city wall temporarily contained the goblin attack, giving the soldiers a slight chance to breathe. But within a few minutes, the second wave of more ferocious goblin attacks came towards the city wall.
However, this time the hard crossbow on the turret had been replaced with a new bowstring. The soldiers manipulating the hard crossbow hit the catapults hundreds of meters away with shocking accuracy. As the catapults were destroyed one after another, the goblins obviously
They could no longer sit still. Behind the goblin army, several goblin leaders discussed. Under the protection of more than a dozen soldiers, a goblin leader rode towards the mountains behind the battlefield, while other leaders signaled their men to launch a full-scale attack.
attack.
"Are you injured?" When Waverly left, sharp-eyed Vey saw traces of blood seeping out of her arms.
Waverly glanced at her arm, curled her lips and said: "It was just scratched by a stone, no need to make a fuss! I can't die from this small injury."
Wei Yi looked at her worriedly for a while and said, "Be careful."
"I know!" Waverly turned away and returned to her seat.
I don’t know whether it’s because of Vey or because Waverly is a mage. The two defensive positions around her are defended by two senior soldiers. With the senior soldiers with strong martial arts skills, Vey can also feel relieved about Waverly.
