The Sky Alliance has fought many times with the four major alliances, but this is the first time they have faced each other head-on after reaching level 60.
Players who have reached level 60 can not only perform three career changes, but craftsmen can also create more advanced offensive weapons, such as terrifying war machines such as advanced catapults!
This is also the first time that an advanced catapult has been used on the battlefield in the spiritual world. Players from both our and enemy sides have yet to witness the powerful power of this advanced mechanical weapon.
In fact, in the ancient historical battlefields of China, the emergence of catapults has a very long history.
Catapults are the weapons with the longest attack distance, the largest attack range, and the most lethality in ancient battlefields. They are also the best long-range firepower used to siege cities.
However, in the actual ancient battlefields, not many catapults were used in each battle, because this kind of equipment is difficult to manufacture and difficult to transport. Under normal circumstances, if you attack a city, you only need a few catapults to defeat the defenders.
It acts as a deterrent.
But the situation is different in the spirit world. The cities in the spirit world are far stronger than the ancient cities in reality, and the number of people participating in the battle is also more amazing.
In the game world, it is not difficult to manufacture and transport catapults. The appearance of such a large-scale catapult participating in the battle also makes such a battlefield even more grand!
Just the first round of catapult firepower covered the sky outside the city. As the smoke slowly dissipated, it could be vaguely seen that all the siege vehicles on the ground outside the city had stopped moving forward, and there were players everywhere.
Corpses, and many enemies were lying around the siege equipment, their bodies covered with a thick layer of sand and gravel.
"I'm going, my ears are almost going deaf."
"How many people are left alive?"
"Brother, are you dead?"
…
The large group of siege players were so stunned by the attack just now that they didn't realize that the battle was not over yet.
"Don't get up, get down quickly, the enemy's attack is coming again!" Some smarter branch leaders were reminding them loudly.
Whoosh!
At this moment, an astonishing roar sounded again above the city tower, and a second wave of stone bullets flew into the sky again...
The siege players turned pale with fear and quickly fell to the ground again.
"Brother Prodigal Son, what should we do?" Gu Yue Hanxing looked at the battle ahead and asked anxiously.
"You are also the commander. Secretly, you don't know what to do?" Cangqiong Langzi turned his head speechlessly and continued to issue orders: "Hurry up and let the armored vehicles behind you rush up to help the brothers in front resist the attack of stone bullets. Since the siege is
Once you have started, there is no possibility of retreating or stopping.”
"Understood." A group of commanders quickly urged their subordinates to mobilize more equipment to help.
The sound of rolling wheels sounded lively again. Although the siege convoy in front was faced with the firepower of stone bullets and could only stay where it was and was beaten, the convoy behind was still moving forward. A large number of tall shield vehicles were pushed by the players.
Push forward from the gap.
Clang clang clang!
As the stone bullets hit the ground again, the sound of metal knocking became more intense.
Because this time, the enemy's shield convoy quickly moved forward and formed a shield wall, blocking all players behind them.
Broken stones were flying everywhere, but they all splashed on the shield frame, and sparks could be seen everywhere.
A large number of shield vehicles quickly came forward to support them, and the players lying on the ground quickly hid in a safe area behind the shield vehicles.
The emergence of advanced shield vehicles temporarily gave the siege army a break. After all, the shields of advanced shield vehicles were taller and their protective power was almost doubled.
"The armored vehicles moved forward quickly to protect the siege convoy and continue to advance. The catapults and crossbows from behind quickly moved up." The Prodigal Son of the Sky issued instructions one after another.
"Understood." The commanders of the Sky Alliance issued orders respectively, and all the mechanical legions began to step forward.
Moving with the mechanical legion, there are also a large number of combat players of various professions. They crowd around the mechanical legion and continue to approach the city.
"Command the defense tower to fire with all your strength as soon as the enemy enters the 100-meter area. But remember, don't hit those shield vehicles. It is a waste of firepower. Try to attack the gaps between the shield vehicles and try to bypass the arrows from the arrow towers.
Just attack the enemy with the shield wall." Li Ming looked at the rows of shield vehicles outside the city merging together to form at least three layers of shield protection, and knew that the Sky Alliance had made careful preparations in advance to attack Fengyan City.
.
"Understood." All senior players conveyed his instructions.
Whoosh whoosh!
In an instant, the entire city tower was full of firepower. Those armored vehicles protected the enemy and kept advancing. They had already entered the 100-meter area. A large number of black figures were all hiding behind the armor and following them. They were getting closer and closer to the city tower.
Already...
"Brother Ming, these shields are really a headache. Is there no way to destroy them?" Avril asked.
"Destroying high-end armored vehicles is more difficult, but it's not impossible. It's just that it consumes too much money for us." Li Ming replied with a frown.
"Then if we can't destroy these armored vehicles, our city tower will be in danger. Once they get close to the moat, our defense towers and mechanical legions will not be able to continue attacking them..." Fu Ziyan worried.
Mechanical weapons have a long range and are powerful, but they have a very troublesome shortcoming. They can attack very far away, but cannot target enemies that are too close.
The same is true for defense towers. The attack range of stone towers is from 50 meters to 100 meters outside the city wall; the attack range of energy towers is between 10 meters and 100 meters outside the city wall.
Only the arrow tower has a larger attack range and can attack enemies between 5 meters and 100 meters outside the city wall.
But if the enemy is allowed to rush into the moat, it means that they have entered the shooting blind spot of the defense tower, and they no longer have to worry about encountering the threat of the defense tower.
At that time, the only ones who can protect the city wall are the players themselves.
"Although shield vehicles have strong defenses, their durability will still be consumed when faced with attacks. As long as we concentrate our firepower to attack, the more attacks the shield vehicles withstand, the greater the chance they will be destroyed," said Kun Shao.
.
"But the opponent's mechanics are following behind. No matter how hard we hit, if they repair it at the same time behind, we still can't do anything about it." Xiaozhu reminded.
"Then kill their craftsmen. In short, this battle must be fought without consuming too much of our materials, and we must not let the armored vehicles show off their power in front of our tower for a long time." Li Ming said.
"Kill their craftsmen? How should we fight?" Avril asked in confusion.
"Although I don't want to consume too many resources in Fengyan City, as long as I find the right target, it doesn't matter if I consume a little occasionally. All the mage legions will lock on the shield vehicle and attack. Once the enemy's craftsmen start repairing it, they will use catapults.
Lock the thunder and fire bombs behind each armored vehicle and use the thunder and fire bombs to kill them as much as possible," Li Ming said.
He understood that the consumption of thunder and fire bombs should not be too high. After all, there would be many life-and-death battles later that would require this material to save lives. But now it was only aimed at the craftsmen players on the opposite side, so the thunder and fire bombs could be effective without consuming too much.
What's more, with the help of the catapult, the throwing range of thunder and fire bombs will be very accurate, instead of players throwing them casually, often losing their way... (To be continued)
