The swords from both sides kept coming and going, and they kept shooting back and forth. Suddenly, there was a sound of breaking wind in the sky, and a huge boulder was thrown towards the unified army camp.
Many officers of the United Army suddenly widened their eyes, and Aslan's heart couldn't help but tighten.
What he worried about most finally happened.
"Prepare the trebuchets! The aviation magic brigade will look for the enemy's trebuchets immediately and destroy them for me." Aslan said with the walkie-talkie.
"learn!"
After receiving the order, Jedoo and Will Dillon quickly led their team members to conduct high-altitude reconnaissance. They quickly noticed the location of the catapult. Although it was covered by invisibility magic, the flying boulders could not cover it up.
Bang bang...
The aviation magic brigade fired pyroblast bombs at the trebuchet position.
However, it was blocked by the magic shield of the Ten Directions Alliance magic legion.
If you want to destroy the trebuchet, the magic bullet has no effect at all. At most, it can only leave a bullet hole in the trebuchet.
"It seems that I have been prepared for it!" Aslan muttered.
"Report the location of enemy trebuchet positions."
"Directly ahead, at a position of 500 meters, we will arrange smoke immediately." Jedoo replied calmly, casting a giant red circle symbol magic in the sky of the trebuchet.
Seeing the red ring appearing in the sky, Char's face changed slightly.
"Move all trebuchets immediately."
Kira immediately asked people to make arrangements. The catapult, which was originally preparing to load the second round of boulders, quickly moved its position. However, these trebuchet soldiers had never experienced this kind of battle in which they fired one round and changed places, and the catapults did not do this.
On the one hand, in preparation, many of the horses pulling the cart have been put to the rear.
Now we can only ask the surrounding soldiers to help push the cart together.
After seeing the coordinates, Goode quickly asked someone to calculate the attack distance as an angle, and two soldiers placed a boulder the size of a millstone on the trebuchet.
"emission!"
Nearly a hundred boulders also flew out of the unified army camp, and they dropped them purposefully toward the red marked area in the sky.
As soon as the magic shield was opened, it was crushed by nearly a hundred boulders.
Under the blessing of gravity falling in the air, each boulder weighs from more than 200 kilograms to more than 2,000 kilograms. It is not able to be resisted by a magic shield. If it is a solid earth wall, it may be able to withstand one or two.
Rumble!
Many huge rocks hit the catapult, directly smashing it into pieces. Many soldiers were directly smashed into pulp. Jeddu, who was in the sky, quickly reported the situation back.
Looking at the catapult troops that had suffered heavy losses, Xia Ya's face became gloomy and uncertain. He looked up at the sky and quickly came to his senses.
"We must vigorously develop high-altitude magic props when we go back. The sky is too important. If you can't protect your sky, there will be no secrets in front of the unified army, and the formation of troops will be just a joke." Xia Ya said with an ugly face.
.
He had to admit that Lord Mero brought the Sky Force to its fullest.
Just because the catapults of the Ten-Party Allied Forces were misfiring, it did not mean that the United Army's catapults were misfiring. Under the command of high-altitude scouts like Jiedu, they continued to launch covering strikes against the Ten-Party Allied Forces.
The error of the trebuchet is very large, but for a densely packed army, as long as it is thrown, several of them will be hit at any time. If the boulder starts to roll again, it will be a nightmare for the soldiers in that area.
When the ten-party coalition forces were less than 500 meters away from the main camp, the five-unit bed crossbow began to show its power. Crossbow arrows that looked like spears were shot out one after another. Whether it was a shield or a shield car, they were all pierced.
Many soldiers who persisted here could no longer control the fear in their hearts, and some of them went crazy and directly charged. The timid soldiers retreated subconsciously, and then their heads were beheaded by the supervising team behind them.
The crazy Allied Forces of the Ten Parties screamed in a voice that they themselves could not understand, and they crashed directly into the military formation of the United Army. At first, they were basically chopped into pieces, but as more and more Allied Forces of the Ten Parties bumped into them,
, the two sides fell into a hand-to-hand fight.
As more and more troops from the Ten Directions Alliance crowded in.
Aslan made a gesture to the flag bearer, who quickly gave instructions to the trebuchet platform.
Goode quickly turned around and shouted loudly: "Change to incendiary bombs, reduce the load, and launch it at a short distance."
The soldier who was about to move the stone quickly put down the stone in his hand and ran to the bottom counterweight box.
The trebuchet uses the lever principle. One end is equipped with a counterweight box. This counterweight box contains heavy objects, and the other end is equipped with stone bullets to be launched. Before launching, the end where the ammunition is placed must be pulled down with a winch, pulley or directly by manpower.
The other end with the heavy object also rises at this time. After placing the stone bomb, release or cut the rope, let one end of the heavy object fall, and the stone bomb will also be thrown out. This kind of trebuchet passes through the *** area.
It was introduced to China and was called "Hui Hui Pao".
By the mid-14th century, some trebuchets were capable of ejecting projectiles weighing about 454 kilograms, which were extremely powerful. Modern tests have shown that a trebuchet with a boom length of about 15.2 meters and a counterweight of 10 tons can eject projectiles of about 90-136 kilograms.
The stone projectile was thrown about 250 meters away.
Because the weight box of Aslan's trebuchet is blessed with gravity magic, and the boom is also blessed with acceleration magic, the trebuchet is much more powerful than the trebuchets in history. It can easily lift a boulder of more than 200 kilograms.
Throw it five hundred meters away.
The iron blocks on the counterweight box are all accurately made according to standards. Each block is 200 kilograms. One kilogram more will not work, and one kilogram less will not work. With the precise weight of boulders and incendiary bombs, the trebuchet can accurately hit the target.
and distance.
The incendiary bombs were quickly ignited, and then at Goode's order, they were all thrown out, illuminating the not yet bright sky as hot as noon.
The incendiary bomb hit the ground and exploded instantly, sending flames flying everywhere.
The fuel oil added with bract fruit powder is more viscous and more resistant to burning. Once it gets stained, it cannot be shaken off immediately.
For a moment, the entrance to the unified army camp was engulfed in a sea of fire.
The attacking ten-party coalition forces are even more crazy. They will not even have a chance to retreat now because their retreat is blocked by the sea of fire.
At the same time, it also caused a gap in the attack formation of the ten-party coalition forces.
Aslan made a gesture to open the door, and the flag bearer quickly opened the door. Arthur, who had been commanding at the city gate, quickly ordered the soldiers to retreat and set up formations on both sides of the gate, allowing the soldiers of the ten-party coalition who had gone crazy to rush into the camp.
Inside.
The soldiers of the ten-party coalition who were fighting crazily suddenly felt the frontal pressure lighten and rushed into the camp inexplicably. Before they had time to cheer and surprise, the crossbowmen on the high platforms and arrow towers on both sides pointed their crossbows at them.
Phew…
A large number of soldiers from the ten-party coalition fell to the ground in an instant. Many of them still wanted to fight hard, but hooks and sickles appeared from all directions, quickly hooked them, dragged them into the position, and hacked them to death.
