Standing on the tower of Patrick's Fortress, you can see with your own eyes in the rubble wasteland just in front of the fort, the shadow players are arranged in neat phalanxes, with flags scattered and dust flying, one by one, the neat phalanxes are slowly advancing forward.
With.
Miss Ren was very excited, probably because she has grown up and has never had the experience of guarding her own guild station, so she was excited but did not convey any instructions.
"Shadow's performance in the later stages of "Zong Heng" was unexpected, and what he is best at is attacking cities and territories!" Crazy Qiao said while standing next to me.
I looked back at him, and then my eyes fell on the woman following him who was only level 1 and wearing novice common clothes. Although she also had the habit of hiding her ID, I guess she was known as "Female Zhuge"
Let it rain like rain.
Maybe it was chosen when establishing the character. Her face was covered with a thin gauze, revealing two intelligent eyes.
Seeing me looking at her, she smiled slightly and nodded, which was considered a greeting.
I nodded lightly.
The Shadows are famous all over the world for attacking cities and plundering territories. Anyone who has played "Zongheng" will know that their assassin troops are called ghost shadows. They often appear in unexpected places, with important enemy generals as their targets.
Assassinate the target; and the other is their siege equipment. From the encounter in the inclined road to the attack and defense of the fortress, it can be seen that the Shadows care about the siege equipment. They almost carry it with them and they are very flexible and easy to use.
.If it weren’t for the opponent’s wall-penetrating crossbow in the place of sloping roads, the Qing Gang would not be forced to take the initiative with a small number of people; if it weren’t for the catapults, our Dawn Knights would definitely be able to defend the entrance to the square.
, let alone such a critical situation. The assassins of the Shadow are terrible, but the siege equipment is more shootable. If the Shadow can use the siege equipment in outdoor encounters, it will be very powerful if it has a strong forward force.
headache.
Although the destructive power of siege equipment is very powerful, it can be said that no knight can withstand it, but its disadvantages are also very obvious, that is, it is very expensive! If you just buy a lv1 catapult from an NPC, it will
Two hundred thousand troops, not to mention the power, with the speed of assembly and movement, once the whole army starts to retreat, it will be difficult to take them away, and the level will be in vain!
And you can’t bring only one catapult at a time, you usually need at least ten, and here alone there are two million catapults!
There is also a lv1 wall-penetrating crossbow, which sells for 100,000. Based on Shadow's current equipment, there are no less than 30 units. Well, it costs another 3 million!
The building cart is necessary for siege, and the height of the level 1 building cart is only 10 meters (different levels of city walls require corresponding levels of building carts). The defensive power is not very good. Simply put, it is just a piece of wood.
The frame has a few boards nailed to the outside. Just like this, an NPC sells it for 150,000 yuan.
Now you know how Tianhen makes money! And how much it costs to fight a siege war!
These are just a drop in the ocean! Our shadows are even more exaggerated!
That is independent research and development. Very few people can really afford this kind of thing. First of all, you need to build two necessary buildings in your own location, one is a research laboratory and the other is an equipment factory. Regarding the investment in these two buildings
Resources and money, I don’t want to talk about them, they are things that we assholes can’t even think about anyway.
It's not these two buildings that cost more money, but...
The so-called research after the establishment of the research laboratory, such as physical mechanics, ballistics, gunpowder technology and a series of scientific and technological research, none of them are free of charge. Ordinary guilds would not dare to get involved in this area, because research
There is still a certain probability of success... a very cheating setting, probability! That is to say, it is possible that all the previous investment will be in vain, and once it returns to the time before liberation.
But Shadow is a different kind. They dare to research and develop new technologies and are not afraid of investment failure.
Once they develop a new type, such as the lv1 enhanced version of the wall-penetrating crossbow, you can imagine what the result will be in the battle between the two armies.
At the beginning of the game, even Shadow did not invest so much in researching these gadgets. However, they were one step ahead of other guilds in that they began to use siege equipment on a large scale, and they also used it in outdoor encounters.
!
"I'm afraid the next battle will be even more cruel than the fortress!" I smiled bitterly, "If we can't win, it will be like sending a huge gift to Shadow!"
In the battle to seize the fortress, there were already countless casualties. If there were another large-scale casualties during the counterattack, the one who ultimately won would receive an unexpected and generous reward.
Shadow, or Creation?
Crazy Qiao focused his attention on the shadows lined up neatly in front of the fortress, frowned slightly and said: "Defending the city, the last thing you want to encounter is the old bandit from Qianshan!"
Mu Xue also frowned and said in deep thought: "The siege efficiency of the Shadow Guild is indeed very scary! As soon as they came, we fell within a few minutes! If the Shadows had come earlier, Iserlohn Fortress would not have been able to defend it.
!”
This is the only thing we can be thankful for. They traveled a long way and when they arrived, time was running out! But there is nothing we can do about it. If they declare war openly, it will arouse the rejection of all the players in Silvermoon City.
Heart, and the level 5 walls of the fortress are really too high...
And if we go against the current to seize the port without declaring war on our fortress, we will take precautions and close the city gate in time, which will make it more difficult to attack the city.
Therefore, under the conditions at that time, Shadow could only choose to use a long-distance attack to enter the fortress and capture the meeting hall.
If I hadn't put a shot behind him, the fortress would undoubtedly have fallen into the hands of the shadows. After the shadows took control of the fortress, seizing the port would be a piece of cake. In the end, Silvermoon City would be attacked from both the east and west sides, taking the
It is not impossible to get to Silvery Moon City.
All the plans were perfect, but unfortunately, he did not expect that the rock-solid Fort Patrick would fall in just a few minutes. This was definitely beyond his expectation.
And all this is thanks to Bai Xiaosheng, Qianshan Yueying's former comrade-in-arms. Among the tips he gave me, there was a map that marked Patrick's troop deployment and the location of key buildings in great detail, as well as the map that affected the entire army.
How to hide the decisive factor in the war.
Patrick's Fortress is built on a mountain, backed by the Freya Mountains. There are not many other things about this mountain range, but it has the most doorways, one of which is an underground water channel connecting the fortress. Because the terrain in the cave is extremely
It's complicated. Without Bai Xiaosheng's map, we might not be able to find the cave that actually leads to the fortress even if we send 100,000 people.
The value of this message can no longer be measured by one hundred thousand! And it is priceless to me!
Although we have captured the fortress, we are about to face a greater test! It is the shadow siege army of the Knights of the Dawn that can destroy us in a few minutes.
