After the attackers stopped at the edge of the trebuchet's attack range, nearly ten thousand people totaling in four directions gradually dispersed, gradually forming into a large circle, completely surrounding the city where Bai Xiaofei was.
Looking down from the air, the enemy and the city look like an enlarged version of a copper coin with a round square hole, and the "hole" in the middle looks particularly weak!
However, this "copper coin" did not exist forever. As a long horn sounded, the besieging soldiers began to charge towards the city crazily.
But this charge is completely different from the previous three swarms!
The charge this time was divided into batches. Each batch rushed out two to three people from a large circle at approximately equal intervals, and then the next batch inserted the empty weapons of the previous batch.
A batch is produced in a similar way...
Just like that, groups of people rushed over in scattered groups. Seeing this scene, Bai Xiaofei wanted to pull the conductor out and give him a good beating!
This is equivalent to destroying Bai Xiaofei's city defense equipment!
Let's fight. With this level of fragmentation and the flexibility of the second-level soldiers, you won't be able to hit a few people.
Don't fight. Once a person crosses the minimum attack distance of the defensive equipment, you won't be able to fight even if you want to!
And Bai Xiaofei can imagine that once the soldiers get close to the city wall, the siege equipment will definitely follow them. When the two sides attack, Bai Xiaofei will be in a dilemma!
"Inform the other three side walls that the people controlling the trebuchets cannot move for a moment, even if people rush to them and chop them! As long as the opponent's catapults enter the attack range, they must be destroyed before their walls are included in the attack range!
"
"The others stay put and don't use the heavy crossbows for the time being. The archers give priority to attacking the opponent's archers. The remaining people are responsible for preventing the soldiers from climbing the wall!"
A series of orders were blurted out, and the soldiers on the city wall immediately started to move. The advantage of being at a commanding height allowed Bai Xiaofei's long-range capabilities to always crush the opponent in range. This is why siege battles are difficult to fight.
Of course, the premise is that you are accurate enough, otherwise it is just a waste of arrows if you can't hit and have a range advantage...
But it turns out that Bai Xiaofei's soldiers are very reliable!
The devil is one foot tall, and the devil is one foot tall.
The attackers had a small victory in approaching the city wall. Soon, Bai Xiaofei came back in the wall-climbing battle! Row after row of ladders were put up on the city wall, and the attackers began to fight as if they were not afraid of death.
Climb up, but it turns out that you will still die if you are not afraid of death...
Either they were lifted off the ladder or stoned to death. Bai Xiaofei did not allow the attack with fire now, so so far, the siege soldiers died in a bloody mess.
As for the advancing catapults, they were fatally attacked at the first opportunity, but there were always a few survivors among the five, and they also threw two stones decently, although Bai Xiaofei's defense equipment was not damaged.
, but several people were killed.
But that's it. Under Bai Xiaofei's careful attention, none of the catapults got a second chance to attack.
The seemingly dangerous fourth wave was finally annihilated under the city wall after lasting for two hours, and by this time more than half of the day had passed!
One or two o'clock in the afternoon is the hottest time of the day, and it is also the time when people are most irritable. Therefore, the attackers wisely did not choose this moment to attack. After all, their morale has been reduced to a limit.
Four consecutive waves of attacks, with dozens of times the troops rushing in, without even touching the city gate, it's no wonder that morale is so high!
Therefore, after fighting the fourth wave, Bai Xiaofei and his hundreds of soldiers had a long rest period.
However, the fourth wave of attacks also made Bai Xiaofei understand one thing.
That's why the other side behaved like he did before!
They are testing!
Testing all the defensive capabilities of the city, and at the same time testing how to effectively attack, the fourth wave of organization has allowed them to find a way to restrain the city's defense equipment. If you guessed it right, their next goal should be to study how to climb the wall!
Bai Xiaofei doesn't know what new methods will appear on the other side. All he can do is rest well and be ready to fight at any time!
The waiting time always passes very slowly. Although it cannot be said that the days are like years, it is not an exaggeration to describe it as torture.
Gradually, Bai Xiaofei could see the soldiers starting to chat or play something in groups. Compared with the tense state at the beginning, this kind of relaxation was not a good thing for combat effectiveness.
However, Bai Xiaofei couldn't stop them, because if the spirit was kept highly tense without any meaning, the result would be more losses than gains.
However, what Bai Xiaofei didn't expect was that he would wait until the sun set and the sky became dark!
"Make a fire! Light up the entire city wall!"
After smelling a hint of danger, Bai Xiaofei immediately made the correct reaction and set up huge torches one by one.
At the same time, a group of people outside watching Bai Xiaofei's reaction sighed together.
In fact, in reality, Bai Xiaofei is right to do this, but if Bai Xiaofei does this at this level, he will lose the meaning of the welfare level! He may even be defeated!
Carefully consider the conditions for passing the level this time. The criterion for determining whether the city is broken or not is actually the civilians. As long as you ensure that more than half of the civilians survive in the end, then you have not failed!
The word "welfare" lies in the fact that the first four waves of sieges each time have nearly 10,000 people, and the four waves add up to nearly 130,000 troop points! As long as you take it to the next level, you will make a sure profit without losing anything!
The people who refreshed the command list all chose to find ways to hide the civilians before the arrival of the fifth wave, and then led their own people to abandon the city wall and defend the entrance until the end of the night. Even Sima Ye was no exception.
The reason for this choice is not because they don't want to work hard to win with normal means, but this fifth wave of attacks is too fucking BUG!
That kind of attack cannot be dealt with through the accumulation of the first three levels!
To describe it in four words, it is crushing by force!
Yes, this is what Bai Xiaofei sees now!
Just now, Bai Xiaofei sensed something was wrong. When he looked into the distance, the dark night sky blocked everything. So, Bai Xiaofei ordered a wave of rockets to be fired...
Then he saw so many soldiers that it made his scalp numb!
After the rockets were fired, they simply gave up sneaking, shouted slogans and rushed over in the same way as the fourth wave, except this time the density was much greater than the fourth wave!
Moreover, the catapults at this time had already brought the city wall into the attack range. Coupled with the terrifying number of twenty catapults on each side, the first wave of huge rocks smashed down on the city wall with a devastating attitude!
“Close to the wall!!!!”
This was the only thing Bai Xiaofei had time to shout...
