Chapter 359, siege the city again
The perspective turned back to Luo Ji. The seventh day had passed, and the system prompts in his ears did not sound. It was obvious that Li Yuanjie was planning to fight him to the death.
But he was a Bronze player after all. After the invasion time was extended to one month, Li Yuanjie apparently took a deep breath and stopped rushing over to attack the next day.
On the seventh day of the siege, although the casualties of the orc army were very light, it was still necessary to slow down for a day or two and adjust the state.
During this period, of course Luo Ji would not be polite to him. He directly regarded the military camp in Shangyuan City as his front office. He farmed when he needed to farm and stocked up on resources when he needed to. Over time, he simply didn't want to.
I panicked, and took advantage of the city defense style, and the whole person became more and more stable.
On the tenth day of the invasion battle, Li Yuanjie realized that he could not adjust for too long, as adjusting for too long would be detrimental to him as the invader. He decisively gathered his orc army and launched another round of siege battle.
The physiques of the orcs are extraordinary. Although it only lasted for three days, many of the arrow wounds on the bodies of the tauren and elephant men have healed with scars after applying herbs, showing super resilience.
, this is also the biggest reason why Li Yuanjie dares to stay and fight to the death, and it is also one of the advantages of the orc civilization.
The heavy footsteps announced that the orc army was approaching again. Looking at the orc army appearing in the field of view of his telescope, Luo Ji's pupils shrank. This time, four elephant men actually appeared on the opposite side.
Regarding this, Zhao Pan also had a heavy expression on his face. In the previous siege, Li Yuanjie sent out three elephant men. He thought that his previous method worked and killed one of them, but he did not expect that the elephant man
Still alive.
That's right, the fourth Elephant Man who returned to the battlefield is another one of Li Yuanjie's support. Counting the time, the Elephant Man who was withdrawn previously has been recuperating for nearly nine days.
Although it cannot be said that it has been completely restored, its basic combat effectiveness is already there. The purpose of moving it out this time is mainly to intimidate the opponent and put some pressure on the opponent's players.
As for charging into battle, he would definitely not let the Elephant Man stand in front of him. He would huddle behind and occasionally throw a few boulders to destroy the wall on the opposite side. Li Yuanjie was still very tolerant of these four rare Elephant Man units.
.
The war horn had been blown again, and Luo Ji, dressed in military uniform, quickly climbed onto the wall and motioned to the soldiers on the side to light the smoke on the beacon tower.
The billowing smoke that could not be dispersed by the wind soared straight into the sky. This was a signal to other troops. There was no doubt that in this battle, he was going to fight the opponent seriously.
Under this premise, considering the rationality of the city defense configuration, it is obviously impossible to place seven three-bow crossbows on the city wall.
After all, we have seen the previous city defense battle. Seven three-bow crossbows were placed to occupy the space on the wall, resulting in insufficient troops. They could not suppress the large force on the opposite side and were pushed up by the opposite side in a short time.
The walls of Yuancheng were low, so they had no choice but to throw oil barrels and set fire to force the other side to retreat.
When the battle began, Luo Ji still handed over the command of the city defense to Zhao Pan. In his entire civilization, there was probably no one who knew how to fight a city defense better than Zhao Pan.
The city is at war.
Five three-bow crossbows opened fire at the same time. Zhao Pan's intention was obviously to attack the two elephant men on the opposite side who had been injured, and in this way quickly reduce the opponent's siege force.
However, Li Yuanjie was not stupid. He knew that the Elephant Man who had been injured before would be targeted. Therefore, in this siege battle, he did not have the four Elephant Men lined up in a row and advance at the same time like before.
A square formation was set up.
Let the two elephants who were basically uninjured attract damage, while the two injured elephants stayed behind, obviously only preparing to let them deal damage.
The reduction in the number of three-bow crossbows undoubtedly reduced the pressure on the Elephant Men, making it relatively easy for them to advance forward. However, Luo Ji and Zhao Pan did not panic at all, because they both knew in their hearts that the main event was coming.
It's in the back.
Gritting his teeth, he withstood the boulders thrown by the four elephant men. Seeing the opportunity, the archers who were ready to go fired a volley, launching a more powerful arrow rain offensive than before. The overwhelming sharp arrows continued to attack the city.
The orc army outside.
Faced with the suppression of such a dense amount of arrows, even the strong orc troops were obviously unable to be completely immune to any impact, and the entire advancement speed dropped significantly.
The situation was obviously getting a little worse, which made Li Yuanjie at the rear look ugly for a while, and then roared repeatedly, "Tell the elephant man to aim his crossbow at the bed on the opposite wall!!"
However, at this time, just relying on its few roars will obviously not have any effect. The Elephant Man Slinger is not invincible. Standing three hundred meters away, it can smash a huge boulder on the opposite city wall.
This is already an incredible power.
And after the boulder is released, due to its heavy weight, it will definitely fly lower and lower. It is simply a dream to hit the three-bow crossbows placed on the wall.
Unless they shorten the attack distance to one or two hundred meters, but once they reach that position, you have to face two other realities...
One reality is that the attack accuracy of the Elephant Man slingers is actually very poor. Even the three-bow bed crossbow in Luo Ji's hand can't say that it will hit 100% of the time, let alone the Elephant Man throwing boulders with his bare hands?
Because these boulders are too large to be polished, each piece has a strange shape and it is very difficult to control the accuracy.
Another reality is that after the distance is reduced to one or two hundred meters, it will be very painful for the five three-bow crossbows on the wall to hit you.
After taking two deep breaths and calming down, Li Yuanjie obviously realized this. Of course, he knew the weakness of the Elephant Man's slinger, but at that moment, his mentality was a little explosive.
At this point, retreat is impossible. The price has been paid for fighting to this point. It is unjustifiable not to snatch a wave of human slaves and resources back.
Of course, another important reason is that the orcs worship the strong. Continuous victories can greatly increase their loyalty to you. This increase is far greater than that of humans. However, once they fail, their loyalty will also be lost.
Very fierce.
What follows is often a rebellion, and in order to consolidate its rule, even if it is a tragic victory, it will definitely fight this one hard!
