Chapter 32 The trench belt
The performance of Orff's wolves greatly stabilized the morale of the territory.
Yan Xing also appropriately used his heroic stunts to "inspire" and once again improve the morale of his army.
After the initial panic, all the farmers entered their respective positions under the command of Lawhans, Gospar and Eddie. The main force of the Eternal Territory concentrated on fighting against the rushing Broken-Eared Wolf pack.
But the attacking wolf pack did not place all its strength on the frontal breakthrough.
During the running, they automatically divided into eleven teams and continued to spread towards the two wings.
Among them, the werewolf teams were circling around the left and right of the Eternal Leader. They will deliberately make more noise and stir up more smoke and dust to attract more defensive forces to other directions of the guard direction.
The lack of available warriors is indeed Yanxing’s most troublesome problem now.
He had only nine werewolfs, so he could not divide his troops. He could only ignore the attacks of the Broken Ear Wolves on the flanks of the territory and handed over the two directions to the defensive system and several arrow towers on the flanks.
Anyway, the territory is so large, so you give priority to the frontlines, so it is not too late to support other places if there is a crisis.
"Prepare to shoot!" Yan Xing took out a marble from the bullet bag and put it into the leather pocket of the slingshot, and pulled the rubber band at the wolf pack that was rushing forward.
The werewolf and the farmers who heard the order also pulled the slingshot in their hands together.
The broken-eared wolf pack approached quickly, while the trench belt ahead of them forced them to slow down.
The trench is two meters wide, which is not equal to the werewolf's jumping force, but the other side of the trench has an iron fence with an iron fence of two meters in height.
The iron fences and trenches were wrapped in iron ropes with thorns. The irregularly shaped barbs were chilling just by looking at them, and the perception of danger made the brave werewolves dare not touch them.
The attacking werewolf slowed down in front of the trench zone and then diverted to the nearby passage.
At this time, the werewolf is only thirty meters away from the protective wall, and the power of the slingshot can effectively damage the werewolf.
But Yanxing did not order shooting.
He waited for all the werewolf to enter the trench zone.
The three trench zones have front and rear passages, but they do not go straight. The werewolf enters the trench zone and must move sideways to reach the forward intersection.
All roads in the trench zone allow only one werewolf to pass through. On one side are the second trench covered with barbed wire nets, and on the other side are the iron fence wrapped with barbed wire nets.
Werewolf must be careful when walking these passages. If you accidentally fall into the trench or hang it on an iron fence.
Yan Xing patiently watched the werewolf walk into the trench one by one, and then watched them look for a path through the second trench like a maze.
After the last werewolf entered the trench zone...
"shooting!"
Yan Xing shouted loudly and shot the marbles first.
Immediately afterwards, behind the protective wall, on the arrow tower, "bang", "bang", "bang"... sounds connected together, and the marbles shot out formed a barrage and shot at the werewolf in the trench zone ahead.
A part of the marbles hit the iron fence in the trench zone, knocking out sparks.
A part of the marbles penetrated through the gaps in the iron fence.
The werewolfs traveling through the trench zone were densely lined up in front of the territory defenders horizontally.
The marbles hit the werewolf's body, which was not fatal but very painful. The sparks picked up by the side and the marbles flying over by the side also caused considerable psychological pressure on the werewolf.
In panic, some werewolfs fell into the trench beside them with one foot, and some werewolfs were hooked by the barbed rope net on the iron fence.
The trapped werewolf was eager to get rid of it, but the direction of the iron spike on the barbed rope net was messy. As a result, the more you struggle, the deeper the piercing, and the tighter it was entangled.
The blood flowed out, and the hooked werewolf howled in pain.
Some werewolfs quickly rescued their companions, but they did not help at all except tearing their companions' wounds even bigger.
And at this time, pieces of iron marbles shot over again.
After wave after wave, the shooting speed far exceeds the crossbow. With the continuous attack, the werewolf who was trapped in the trench area could not move forward or retreat, could only choose to squat on the ground with his head held.
Although this kind of iron marble hurts to hit the body, it is better than falling into the trench.
"Go away, don't stay here. Go away, rush over!"
Broken ear, who was also in the trench area, saw his warrior being suppressed in this narrow and dangerous area, yelling loudly.
At this time, he saw the weapons used by the defenders in the human camp.
That's a slingshot?
Duan Er couldn't figure out why the slingshot had such great power at such a long distance. But he knew that if his soldiers were not allowed to leave the trench area as soon as possible, there would only be more casualties.
However, the marbles shot from the human camp are too dense, and the werewolves without protection can only protect their heads first. If they cannot see the path clearly, they will naturally fall apart. If they are hit by the marbles shot in their legs, they will fall directly into the trench.
In just a short time, more than a dozen werewolfs were planted in the trench. Many werewolfs were hung on iron fences to block the path of the werewolf behind them.
The trench belt became an insurmountable gap, and the werewolves trapped inside became living targets for the territory's defenders to attack at will.
Yan Xing, who was commanding the battle on the arrow tower, did not expect that the trench belt he designed and laid out was so powerful.
Judging from this situation, the broken ear-breaking wolf pack seemed to be unable to break through the first defense of the territory, and would be completely destroyed by itself.
I was so worried before the war started, so I prepared so many weapons.
But...where is the poisonous fly with broken ears?
If he doesn't release the poisonous fly now, he will have no chance in a while.
Yan Xing scanned the battlefield and above his territory. This is not a swamp environment, with a wide view of the grassland and not many places to sneak. The poisonous flies are as big as they are, and it is not that easy to get close with so many eyes.
The broken-eared wolf pack is trapped in the trench zone without posing a threat. The only surprise soldier who can turn the situation around is the five poisonous flies.
But just as Yan Xing focused on the air, several yellow lights suddenly appeared in the trench zone.
Then Yan Xing saw that a few werewolfs were covered with a layer of soil, and the soil layer turned into a stone armor after the yellow light penetrated.
What's the situation?
Didn’t werewolfs all light infantry combat units? Why did they suddenly wear armor?
Could it be...this is magic?
Yanxing knew that there was magic in this world. Some of the items he brought were also regarded as magical alchemy weapons by his subordinates.
But Yanxing knew what those things were, and they had nothing to do with magic.
Now in front of him...
The soil automatically covers the werewolf's body and turns into stone armor again!
magic!
Yanxing's eyes were full of fanaticism.
