The Fengxiang City Alliance did not participate in the first wave of offensive against the Persian Empire. Although they learned some about the firepower of the Persian Empire on the Internet, most people have not seen it with their own eyes. Jingfeng and others led an army of hundreds of thousands to attack
During the initial tentative attack on the Persian fortress, many people were frightened by the firepower of the Persian Empire.
The sky was filled with arrows. Thousands of players had not rushed to the city wall, but half of them had already fallen. There were also those thick ballistae, and the top-notch players had no resistance in the face of those ballistae.
The players didn't even touch the city wall, and the death squads were basically wiped out.
"Hiss! No wonder the major guilds are so enthusiastic about siege equipment. This is completely forced by the Persian Empire!"
If Zeng Yi were at the scene, he would definitely be very happy. Anyone who has experienced the powerful firepower of the Persian Empire will probably suffer from firepower phobia. Once this "disease" is contracted, it is a terminal illness and cannot be cured at all.
Only powerful siege equipment can alleviate the symptoms of this "disease".
In a sense, Zeng Yi is actually an angel in white! The reason why he is in the arms business is to cure diseases and save people.
Fengxiang City paid the lives of thousands of players, and it was considered that it had a certain understanding of the firepower of the Persian Empire. When they launched another attack, Jingfeng and Hua Qianyuexia divided the player team into two teams according to the advice of the staff.
, Jingfeng and Hua Qianyuexia each led a group to attack the fortress from front to back.
The siege equipment is also evenly distributed, with half placed on the front and rear battlefields. When players attack, they also start to charge at a distance. In this way, the power of the Persian Empire's bows and arrows will be greatly weakened.
The real attack began. The teams that had been assigned long ago rushed forward with catapults. In front of each catapult, there were hundreds of strong and powerful players holding large shields to protect the catapult.
There was even a player who, in order to protect the catapult, had his body covered with bows and arrows, like a hedgehog. But when the Persians tried to use ballistae to destroy the catapult, that hedgehog... bah... that player
He bravely rushed forward again and blocked the ballista with his own flesh and blood.
The main reason why players are so heroic is actually the player's immortality. Every time he dies, although he will lose some martial arts proficiency, the guild will also compensate him. As long as he dies on the battlefield, the guild will definitely give him compensation.
.
Some players know that they are unlikely to join the top group, so they don't care much about the number of their deaths. Just like the players in the Suicide Squad, they are all in the guild and actively ask to go. The Suicide Squad is also at the bottom
Among players, it is one of the fastest-growing industries to make money.
Under the artillery fire of the Persian Empire, the catapult finally reached the predetermined position. The catapult was not damaged, but most of the players protecting the catapult were killed.
After the catapult arrived at the predetermined position, it finally began to show its power. The boulder was thrown towards the Persian Empire fortress. The soldiers of the Persian Empire had to be heroic, but in the face of the boulder, they had no room for resistance. Unfortunately, the player's siege equipment was still too powerful.
If there were less, if there were more, maybe we could break through the Persian defense line with just the catapult.
Although the Persian fortress has not yet been conquered, the investment of catapults has greatly limited the firepower of the Persian defenders, especially the ballistae. As long as the player detects the position of the ballistae, the catapult will immediately attack it!
The war was very fierce. The player suddenly took out the catapult, which shocked the Persian Empire. Compared with the beginning, the players now are not powerless to fight back. The defenders of the Persian Empire were very aware of the power of the catapult, but they did not
any solution.
The players attacked from the front and back, and the Persian Empire had to divide its troops to defend both sides. The players relied on the catapults and the numerical advantage to successfully attack the city wall. However, the tall city walls were specially strengthened by the Persian Empire according to the light skills of the people in the Central Plains. The average player's
It is impossible to go up with light skills. Players with good light skills among first-class masters can fly up, but there are only a few players among first-class masters. Although they successfully attacked the city wall, they were unable to break through the defense of the Persian defenders.
Jingfeng and others who were directing the battle frowned when they saw this situation from behind. Several staff members said: "President, Ming Jin, please withdraw your troops. If this continues, all the first-rate masters will be lost on it! And the weather is dark.
It’s getting dark too, so withdraw first and discuss countermeasures!”
Jingfeng nodded and immediately contacted the people from Tianxiang Guild.
The first-class masters who stormed the city wall fought bloody battles, but they all knew in their hearts that it was impossible for them to break through the Persian Empire's defense alone. After receiving the order to retreat, those first-class masters withdrew one after another.
After withdrawing, the players withdrew from the Persian Empire's firepower range, and the top leaders of the two major guilds immediately gathered to discuss countermeasures.
"Although the offensive on the first day did not achieve any results, it still succeeded in attacking the city wall. This is enough to show the power of the siege equipment. I believe that as the war progresses, there will be no problem in breaking through the Persian Empire's defense! But if you want to break through
There is a problem that must be solved first in the city. The walls of the Persian fortress have obviously been specially strengthened for players! We must find a way to make it possible for ordinary players to climb the walls!"
"This is indeed a problem. Only top-notch experts can attack the city wall, but they cannot break through the Persian Empire's defense line!"
"Why don't you ask Boss Ni first if there is a ladder?" In fact, NPCs have very mature solutions to deal with tall city walls, and ladders are the main means of dealing with tall city walls.
A ladder is a tool used to climb over city walls and siege the city. Some types of ancient ladders have wheels underneath and can be pushed, so they are also called "ladder trucks" and are equipped with defense shields, winches, grappling hooks and other equipment.
, some are equipped with pulley lifting equipment. The inventor of the aerial ladder is generally believed to be Gongshu Ban (Lu Ban), a skilled craftsman of the Lu State during the Spring and Autumn Period. At that time, King Hui of Chu ordered Gongshu Ban to build the first aerial ladder in history in order to achieve the goal of dominating the country.
Xu Shen notes in "Huainanzi Military Training": "The ladder can stand on the clouds, so it can overlook the enemy's city." Therefore, climbing high to detect the enemy's situation is another function of the ladder.
Zeng Yi was chatting with the Xueyiwei guys when he suddenly received a message from Jingfeng, Hua Qianyuexia and others. When he saw a few people asking about the ladder, Zeng Yi instantly understood that there must be trouble in the siege.
The city wall is so tall that ordinary players cannot attack it!
