Outside the city, the rumble of iron hoofbeats rang in the distance again. After a brief rest, the Japanese armored cavalry launched a second charge.
Judging from the surging cavalry chao in the distance, Tanigawa Eiji dispatched at least twice as many troops as the first time.
"This time the opponent has doubled their troops, please be careful." Zeng Jun reminded loudly.
"Don't be afraid. No matter how many people there are, as long as we can't break through our fire demon wall, it will be in vain." Meng Dieying said disapprovingly.
However, facing the second overwhelming heavy armored cavalry in Japan, the idlers of Wenling read a different flavor from it.
I saw him frowning and saying: "The pure cavalry charge has failed, and under the defense of our shield wall and the fire demon wall, the strength advantage is obviously unable to be exerted. However, this time more cavalry will be sent, Tanigawa Eiji How could you be so stupid?"
Binglan looked at the armored cavalry in the distance, and nodded thoughtfully and said: "I don't think he is that stupid. If he is really that stupid, the shogunate will definitely not be the first guild in this region. "
So, what is the reason for Eiji Tanigawa's move? Is it because he deliberately shows weakness to the enemy? This is completely unreasonable. He sacrifices the lives of a large number of elite cavalry to achieve the purpose of making the opponent underestimate the enemy. Showing weakness to the enemy should not be like this. Demonstrative.
Moreover, they are attacking the city now, and the Chinese players are defending the city. Even if there is some feeling of underestimating the enemy, it is estimated that not many people will be stupid enough to open the city gate, mobilize all the troops and horses out of the city, and take the initiative to attack in order to speed up. The battle is decided quickly.
What defense seeks is "stability". Under the current premise of stability, any move to lure a snake out of its hole is a boring trick. Wenling idlers cannot be fooled, Zeng Jun cannot be fooled, Ice Blue, Peony Pavilion, Murder None of these people would be fooled. Even the leader of the Three Thousand Harem, the Seventh Young Master who holds the title of "Demon King of the Worlds" in the City of Tongtian, would not make such a mistake.
Therefore, at this time, Tanigawa Eiji had absolutely no reason to show weakness to the enemy, especially in this way.
Tanigawa Eiji is probably not a person who is good at playing with tactics. He may never be able to master Chen Cang's trick of openly building the plank road in secret. Without letting Zeng Jun and others guess for a long time, Tanigawa Eiji's tactical intentions have already passed through his subsequent troop deployments. will be revealed automatically.
As the cavalry advanced, behind the mighty cavalry camp, those rough-looking trebuchets with jet-black paint on their exteriors, driven by manpower, slowly moved forward along with the cavalry team.
"He wants to use ordinary trebuchets to smash down the shield wall outside our city." Zeng Jun said, pointing to the army of ordinary trebuchets that were struggling to move forward in the smoke raised by the cavalry.
"The tactics that Eiji Tanigawa came up with are indeed direct, simple and crude, but I have to admit that this is also a good method." Wenling idler sighed.
Immediately afterwards, the Wenling idler changed his subject, his voice suddenly raised an octave, and he said to the players inside and outside the city wall: "This time the enemy used a large number of trebuchets to cooperate with the cavalry charge. The next battle will definitely be difficult. Everyone must Be mentally prepared to sacrifice at any time.”
"If people are on the wall, the city will be destroyed and people will die." EQ took the lead in shouting.
"People are as long as the city wall remains, but the city is destroyed and people are dead." The uniform roar shook the sky, and the sound waves were louder than the waves. After impacting the mountains in the distance, they bounced back and continued to echo in the sky.
Feeling the high morale on the city wall, the smile on Uncle Wenling's face was brighter than the chrysanthemums under the winter sun. He stroked his non-existent beard on his chin and said with a hearty smile: "The young men are indeed full of blood, and their morale is so high. , even if all the players in this area rush forward, I won’t worry at all about not being able to defend it, hahaha.”
As the cavalry charged, the trebuchets on the city wall began to roar again, and the arrows, as dense as locusts, flew quickly through the air, drawing parabolic arcs and hitting the cavalry camp in the distance, which was running wildly in the wind.
The arrows fell to the ground, creating large craters of different depths on the ground. The cavalrymen and their mounts were groaning miserably as they were hit. The knights' vitality and blood drained away, and the boulders that hit the men and horses were shattered piece by piece. It came, but failed to directly kill those rough-skinned and fleshy cavalry.
The dense falling arrows caused huge damage to the armored cavalry, but at the same time, the trebuchets behind the cavalry accurately measured the distance between themselves and the city wall.
One after another well-maintained and shiny trebuchets entered the area where the rain of arrows fell, and continued to push forward slowly. Along the way, they were hit by arrows that were constantly thrown from the city wall. Some of the trebuchets were lost, but none People chose to retreat, and the army of trebuchets propelled by human power was still crawling forward with difficulty on the ground where arrows and stones were raining down from the sky.
After crawling for another distance, as the young commander in charge of commanding these trebuchets made a stop gesture with both hands, the trebuchets stopped and began to quickly fill with huge black stones under the control of the player.
Then the strong warrior quickly pulled the noose and tightened the trebuchet's machine spring. With the slogan, he let go, and with a "buzz" sound, the machine spring rang, and the trebuchet's curved beam quickly bounced back, The huge stone bullet was thrown out, leaving a parabola in mid-air, and finally, with the powerful power of the immediate speed bonus, it hit the shield formation formed by the cavalry in front of the city wall.
With a sound of "Boom.", gravel flew into the sky, dust flew into the sky, and two white lights instantly lit up below the falling stone, triggering a small-scale panic in the surroundings. Several players with residual blood fell from the broken boulder. He dragged the shield out with difficulty, spat out a mouthful of blood-stained saliva with a "Bah!" and stuck the shield in his hand in front of him again.
"The second one, the third one, the fourth one... Thousands of huge black arrow stones drew dense arcs in the air with the roar of the trebuchet, and hurled the stones with the scream of tearing the air. They were thrown out of the machine camp, and then raindrops fell on the Scorpion Tiger Cavalry that formed the shield wall within 40 yards outside the city, killing and wounding countless heroic Scorpion Tiger Cavalry. Once the rain starts, it seems to never tire. , never means to stop.
As the arrows continued to fall, more and more people died in the Scorpion Tiger Cavalry.
"Old Lei, afterimage mirage, what did you do? Each one of you claimed that the artillery under his command rarely fired cannons. Why haven't you smashed those trebuchets after so long?" Zeng Jun frowned deeply. Lock, turned around and yelled at Ye Ming and Afterimage Mirage.
"Damn, you think I'm thinking this time, the enemy has sent twice as many cavalry as last time. We currently have less than a thousand trebuchets. We have to attack cavalry and other artillery positions. We don't have enough energy.
Fierce, how can the battle be solved so easily?" Ye Ming complained.
"Idiot, who asked you to hit those cavalry? You don't know how to concentrate your firepower on those trebuchets first." Zeng Jun scolded.
"Uncle arranged it this way." Afterimage Mirage replied in a low voice.
"Uncle." Zeng Jun looked at the idlers in Wenling with an inquiring look in his eyes.
Wenling Xianren also had a frown on his face, and explained to Zeng Jun with a grimace: "There are too many cavalry, and the defense is high. There is no need to use trebuchets to consume some of the energy and blood first. Just rely on the fire wall technique and blizzard."
It’s hard to stop it, especially since our shield wall has been so severely damaged.”
"Then... listen to uncle." Zeng Jun said calmly.
When attacking cities and territories, Zeng Jun is often good at coming up with some ingenious schemes. Although they seem very risky, they are usually very effective. But when fighting positional battles, especially defensive positional battles, the uncle is the real tactical expert. "Little
The reputation of "Zhuge" is definitely not in vain. At this time, the uncle's judgment is more accurate than anyone else.
"Continue to attack." Afterimage Mirage shouted loudly to the player responsible for operating the trebuchet.
The arrows in the sky were like locusts, and they continued to fly towards the enemy formation, some of them hit the cavalry camp that was moving at high speed, and some of them hit the trebuchet position hidden behind the cavalry.
A few minutes later, the last row of cavalry was completely out of the shortest range of the trebuchet, and the trebuchet could no longer attack those cavalry teams.
"Now, concentrate all your firepower and smash all those pesky trebuchets." Wenling Xianren turned to Ye Ming and Afterimage Mirage and said.
The reeds of the trebuchets on the city wall continued to roar, throwing stones one by one towards the trebuchet positions outside the city. Inside the city wall, the crossbows hidden in the arrow towers suddenly roared again, and thousands of arrows were fired.
The crossbow arrows, which were as dense as raindrops, splashed down on the cavalry in the front row, causing damage numbers one after another. They took over the baton from the trebuchet and continued to consume the cavalry's health.
God's Demonic Wound raised his long bow and threw out a stream of colorful arrows, announcing the attack of the second wave of cavalry from the army of archers on the city wall.
After a while, the mages on the city wall waved their staffs one after another, summoning fire wall spells. A fire wall spell that stretched for several miles was instantly formed in front of the broken shield array of the Scorpion Tiger Cavalry. The width of the fire wall was still about 5 yards.
"The shield array behind the wall of fire has been broken. This is our only chance. Don't be afraid of sacrifice. Kill me fiercely. Loulan will not be returned until it is broken." The Nara desert said an ancient Chinese saying, with the iron armor behind him like water.
The cavalry once again tore the fire wall built by the mages into scattered flames, and launched a fierce attack on the shield formation that was already somewhat damaged by the trebuchet's desperate bombardment without hesitation.
As Nara Desert said, they know very well that there is only one such opportunity, because once those trebuchets are pulled out to join the battle, it will be difficult for them to have the opportunity to return safely and organize another battle, because of the trebuchets in China, especially the Dawn Union.
