As soon as the sky dawned, passionate drums sounded outside the city, and huge war machines slowly advanced, driven by the green-skinned orcs.
These war machines were loaded with zombies and undead creatures. After discussing with the leaders of these two races, Nettray was responsible for filling in the moat.
Zombies and undead creatures are on the siege machinery.
Each small cart is loaded with soil, and there is a shaman under the cart. They are fixed under the cart by ropes.
The green-skinned orc warriors alone need to create a road in the turbulent moat that can allow siege machines to pass. I wonder how many people will die before they can succeed?
So they took the initiative to ask for help, used shamanic witchcraft, and used the stones, wood, and soil prepared by the orc warriors to find a road that could be passed casually in a short period of time.
It's just that this path requires them to use shamanic power to stabilize it.
Only then did he realize that the shaman was hiding under the cart and rushing forward with the orc warriors.
Hiding down there, no one can find them!
"War is about going all out." Knightley said to the descendants next to him: "Especially when dealing with humans, you have to have the momentum to move forward in an indomitable way, and either you die or I die, so that the other party can fall into your rhythm."
"I would also like to take this opportunity to see the world of heroes and the attack methods of the major hero races."
From their position, they can see the situation on the battlefield ahead, and command the troops in front through the sound of horns and drums.
The huge Kodo beasts are on the left and right, their big eyes looking forward eagerly, and they are also eager to fight.
It's a pity that adults won't let them go.
Dong dong dong....
Under the guidance of simple drums, the orc warriors pushed the carts, held up shields made of wood, and rushed forward without any formation.
The moat of the South Gate Fortress is about twenty meters wide. To facilitate entry, the gate and the side occupied by the orcs have suspension bridges that can be pulled down and raised.
There is a very narrow and raised place in the middle of the river, where the suspension bridges on both sides fall at the same time. This is a more critical point and one of the main attack directions of the orc army.
The orc soldiers ran forward quickly, and when they came to the river, they entered the attack range of the soldiers on the city.
Last night, after the leaders of the various clans went back to discuss, more than thirty heroes exited the fortress.
Lin Ya wrote down the names of these people not to hold grudges, but to record their contributions.
After all, others have helped.
Organize 150 archers, thirty Gog, and thirty lizard archers.
210 ranged troops.
Logistics and supplies are the responsibility of the fortress defenders.
"Free Attack!"
When the number of archers is too small to form a large scale, it is better to let them attack freely.
This will cause greater damage.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh...
The arrow feathers sank into the shield of the orc soldier in the distance. This was no ordinary arrow. It contained the fighting spirit of the soldier. It easily shot through the simple shield and hit the orc soldier hiding behind the shield.
Orc soldiers fell from time to time, but with more than 200 long-range troops, how could it be possible to stop the assault of nearly 5,000 orc soldiers.
The orc warrior came to the moat and threw the stones in his hands into the river.
The water depth of the moat is about 3m, and the flow speed is not fast.
The stones fell into the water and stirred up a lot of water. More than a hundred stones were thrown down, but only a few were exposed, but they were still too far away from the other side.
The orc warriors pushing the wooden cart came to the river, and the orc shaman hiding inside hid under the wooden cart and carefully cast spells.
Since the terrain cannot be changed, earth magic is used to help the soldiers cross the river.
Then they use ice spells.
More than twenty shamans who came to the river hid under wooden carts and carefully cast spells.
The main reason is that I am afraid that the cemetery on the city wall will be interrupted by magicians.
A large number of orc warriors stood behind them. They wanted to cross the river, but conditions did not allow it.
On the other side of the river, there is a flat terrain of more than fifty meters between the city wall and the moat.
This means that they entered the flat area after crossing the river, without any cover, and could only be exposed to the Cemetery Clan army.
There are not only the Cemetery Clan troops in the South Gate Fortress, but also troops from other major races, including various flying troops.
In a wide and flat area, reinforcements from the rear cannot support, and the enemy occupies a favorable location.
Soldiers in the past only met death.
So they waited quietly for the shaman's witchcraft.
They believed that the shaman could lead them through.
"What are those orcs doing?"
The human hero next to Lin Ya asked curiously: "Just stay by the river and let our long-range troops practice?"
Nearly five to six hundred orc soldiers stood on the river bank, neither throwing anything into the river nor putting down the items in their hands.
Most of them hold wood in their hands. Of course, this thing can be used as a shield at critical moments.
Strong logs can stop bows and arrows.
The corpse witch said calmly: "They are waiting for the shaman's witchcraft!"
Witchcraft is actually almost the same as magic. Shamans hide it and think they are not exposed.
But when the elements started to move, the corpse witch keenly sensed the creatures hiding under the wooden cart.
To these heroes who are not yet too mature, he said: "You can close your eyes and use your mental power to perceive it, and you will find that the elements are flowing towards the wooden cart that is being protected by the orcs."
"Then based on the flowing elements, we can sense that those orc shamans plan to use ice elements to freeze the river."
After hearing this, Lin Ya immediately tried to sense it, and it was exactly what the Corpse Witch said. She could feel the elements flowing.
And when you perceive it, you can clearly feel the coldness, which is a characteristic of the ice element.
Different elements have different characteristics. If it is a fire element, you will have a burning sensation like a burning fire.
"It really is!"
Lin Ya's expression changed: "Isn't the moat useless?"
The moat is a very important part of their defense system. It can prevent the enemy from entering the large war machine.
Based on the current situation on the river, if the orcs want to transport the large war machines at the rear to the city wall, they must first build a bridge on the moat or fill in a certain stage.
But now the other side only needs to freeze the river surface to push the war machine closer to the city wall.
Corpse Witch nodded: "Yes, so you haven't discovered that in the heroic world, the moats of all major races are different?
The effect of magic on the moat is, at best, a waste of some magic points from the mage.
Therefore, the major moats in the heroic world are built according to racial characteristics without special resources, such as fire that cannot be extinguished by magic, and lava that cannot be frozen."
"Don't worry too much." The Corpse Witch had already received the news from the master and said to Lin Ya with a smile: "Let them come, this will be their burial place."
"Are you so confident?" Lin Ya heard the incomparable confidence from the corpse witch's language: "Without a moat, they will drive straight in. Those war machines store a large number of dark creatures. Once they get close to the city wall, those dark creatures will rush to the city wall.
Come up."
All major races have flying units. In addition to combat, flying units also have another task: reconnaissance.
The war machine of the dark creature is huge, and it makes quite a lot of noise when it moves.
Zombies and undead creatures enter the war machine under the sight of the flying arms of all major races.
This is why Lin Ya is so worried.
The Corpse Witch smiled confidently: "The more they come, the better."
"I also ask City Lord Linya to transfer the heroic world troops from other cities.
The target of the dark creatures is the South City Gate area, and there is no need to stay behind in other areas.
We only need to drag the dark creatures into the southern city, and the winner of this victory will only be us.
Believe me!"
Lin Ya frowned, suddenly thinking of a person in her mind.
There has been no news from that person for a long time.
When Lin Ya thought of this, she looked at the Corpse Witch in shock. The Corpse Witch knew that Lin Ya had already thought of it and nodded to Lin Ya: "Your guess is not wrong."
"Didn't you lie to me?"
The corpse witch nodded affirmatively: "I definitely didn't lie to you."
"Okay, I'll call in the other troops right away!"
When the other heroes were confused, Lin Ya sent people to transfer the troops from the DC area.
Then she thought of a question: "Many military types are very resistant to the Cemetery Clan army. If the Cemetery Clan army is allowed to fight alongside them, it may cause a bad reaction!"
The corpse witch had already prepared for this: "Then we don't count them together, just like the areas we divided before, divide them into different areas.
Wouldn’t it be great if one race is responsible for one area?”
"This is a defense plan prepared for you."
Lin Ya took over the defense map. The areas divided above were all within the city. According to different streets and different race combat strengths, each hero was accurately assigned to which street and which house!
"Are you going to start a street fight with them?"
Lin Ya was shocked by the corpse witch's plan: "Aren't you afraid that something will happen?"
Corpse Witch: "Don't worry, the winner of this battle is only us, and it will only be us."
"Hurry and prepare, the orcs have already started preparing to cross the river."
Lin Ya was about to say something else, but when she saw the curious eyes of other heroes around her, she stopped talking.
Lead the heroes to lead their respective troops and head to the defense area assigned to them by the Corpse Witch.
I saw that a layer of ice had begun to pick up on the moat, and the thickness was increasing rapidly.
The orc soldiers holding mud in their hands threw the mud onto the ice to increase friction and speed up their march.
The war machines in the rear are also slowly approaching the river.
5,000 orc soldiers, mixed with various dark creatures, zombies, and undead creatures.
At first glance, there are all dark creatures, giving people the feeling of a doomsday zombie siege.
Woohoo~~~
The orc soldiers were holding their breath. From time to time, their comrades fell down around them, but they had no way to deal with the enemies on the city wall.
Now I can only endure it.
The desolate horn sounded, announcing the beginning of the general attack.
It also means that the ice surface of the moat is enough for the orc soldiers to move forward.
After receiving the order, the orc soldiers jumped up and fell onto the ice without causing any ripples or cracks.
They rushed forward through the area where soil had been spread.
On the 20-meter ice surface, the animal soldiers had already rushed to the other side in just a few breaths.
Click, click, click...
The huge war machine also fell into the ice, in order to allow the war machine to cross the river smoothly, as well as go down and up the river.
The orc soldiers used wood and stones to build a ramp. The huge war machine fell onto the river, and the ice made a cracking sound.
The orc soldiers were a little panicked, but they still pushed forward. The shaman's face turned pale, and his witch power poured into the river crazily, making the ice stronger.
This allowed these soldiers to push forward boldly.
An hour after the army was dispatched, the orc army finally arrived under the wall of the South Gate Fortress.
The city wall is nearly 20 meters high. Without war machines, the orcs would have no choice but to turn around and run away when seeing such a fortress.
For a fortress like this, if your weapons are struck on the wall, no trace will be left.
Melee troops cannot engage in hand-to-hand combat with the opponent. If there are long-range troops, they will also be hunted by the opponent's long-range troops.
The opponent occupies a favorable location and is at an absolute advantage. How can you shoot better underground than on the city wall?
Facing this kind of fortress, the only option is to turn around and run away.
Click, click, click...
A huge well with a height of more than 20 meters rushed to the shore first, and it was full of mutated zombies. The wood in the hero world is hard enough and the material is good enough. If a war machine like this is made of ordinary wood, it will probably fall apart if touched.
From a distance, you can see that the city wall is getting closer and closer, and the orc warriors pushing the cart are getting harder and harder.
Gulu gulu...
The wheels are rolling rapidly, and the zombies in the well are ready.
Bang~
There was a dull collision sound, and the well wall hit the city wall head-on, and the zombies on top almost fell off.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh...
More than a dozen arrow feathers were stuck on the wooden board of the well.
Roar!
A seemingly ordinary zombie pushed open the well, roared, and jumped towards the skeleton soldiers.
The shape of the zombies changed in the air, from an ordinary zombie of about 1.7 meters to a muscular zombie, with a body size even over two meters.
They are powered mutant zombies.
The mutant zombie jumped down and hit the skeleton soldiers. Just after landing, 3 or 4 bone knives stabbed into his body. The power of death swallowed up all the energy in the zombie's body.
Don't think that it can't hurt him because it also belongs to the power of death of undead creatures.
The skeleton soldiers are not very ruthless.
They won't be able to fight back like zombies. For creatures with relatively strong individual strength, they need to be more ruthless and not let the opponent explode.
Jump down and kill each skeleton soldier, and kill each group as they come, using blade against blade.
When they encounter enemies that cannot be killed instantly or that are restrained, they choose to die together.
Fall down from the city wall together.
The walls of the fortress also have air-forbidden circles, which can be seen as increasing the gravity of the ground below, whether they are skeletons or creatures stronger than skeletons.
The least serious ones are serious injuries.
As the first war machine arrived, the second war machine slowly climbed onto the shore, bringing a large number of zombies with it.
In just ten minutes, the city wall seemed a little chaotic. There were a large number of strong zombies, that is, mutated zombies. They were very smart and would not fight alone with the skeleton soldiers. After they landed, they first defended the position under their feet.
Create an open space for the zombies behind so that they have a place to stay when they fall down.
In this way, the number of zombies on the city wall will increase.
Half an hour later, the zombies had already secured a certain area on the city wall. At this time, the second Well Lan slowly approached the city wall. The undead creatures above excitedly jumped onto the city wall.
The one leading the charge was a creature that was about 6 meters tall and huge, or fat to be precise. It looked like it was made up of countless kinds of creatures whose bodies were put together.
When he jumped onto the city wall, a large amount of yellow slurry was sprinkled on his body, and the stench was so high.
However, as soon as this creature hit the ground, its legs were chopped off by skeleton soldiers. Skeleton soldiers like to deal with such huge creatures.
After cutting off the opponent's legs, the skeleton soldier plunged into the opponent's body, yes, slashed the belly of the huge creature, and then plunged into it.
It's overwhelming inside the opponent's body, and when it comes out, it's covered in colorful, white maggots crawling everywhere.
The green-skinned orcs cheered for these undead creatures under the city wall.
They did not climb up the well and rush to the city wall, but shouted from below and hit the fortress gate with a ram on the other side.
Before they came, they received orders to stay under the city wall as much as possible before the skeleton army showed its defeat and before the city gate was opened.
Wait until there are zombies and undead creatures and consume some of the skeleton army before moving on.
The zombies and skeletons didn't feel anything, because they saw the orc army working hard to attack the city, pushing the war machines and ramming the city gates with rams.
The Dark Alliance Army had a total of three wells and four ladders. After all the wells were mounted on the city wall, the ladders slowly arrived.
At this time, there was chaos on the city wall. The troops on both sides were in the middle.
The corpse witch has retreated to the house below, leaving only 800 skeleton soldiers on the city wall, responsible for resisting the dark creatures on the city.
The battle has lasted for five hours. The dark side has suffered a lot of losses, and there are not many skeleton soldiers left on the city wall.
Members of the South Gate Alliance, seeing the city wall taken away so easily, always felt that the Dark Alliance's actions were too smooth.
The defending troops did not put up much resistance and just let the opponent occupy the city gate.
Click click click....
The dark coalition occupied the city wall, rushed below, and opened the South Gate Fortress gate.
"Come on!"
"kill!"
When the green-skinned orc soldiers saw the city gate open, they swarmed in and rushed in.
The army behind was also ready to move.
Netrelian said to the old shaman Netre: "Grandpa, the city is broken, we can go up!"
Netley always felt that something was wrong, and the fortress door was too easy to open.
He always felt that the soldiers guarding the city were letting loose.
"hold on!"
Netley moved his hands in front of him, and the situation at the city gate appeared. He saw various flags on the houses in the city.
Netrian smiled happily: "They are going to start a street fight with us."
"In order to fight, we don't even need city walls now." Knightley couldn't help but shook his head. The most important defense measure for a city is the city wall. These heroes retreated from the city wall and chose to fight inside the city.
"Order the entire army to dispatch!"
Netrei waved his hand, and about ten thousand dark creatures of various shapes behind him rushed forward excitedly.
They all couldn't wait to rush into the city.
"The fish is in the net!"
To the east, there is a huge army of skeletons, riding south on rafts...
