The artillerymen used torches to ignite the stone bombs, and then a group of five people pulled the rope. Suddenly, fireballs roared out of the air, piercing the sky with billowing smoke!
"Watch out for fireballs!"
"Don't panic, hold on to your formation!"
On the city wall, after seeing so many fireballs shot out by the trebuchet, the defenders inevitably started to commotion.
Fortunately, the city lord is also experienced, and has his own knights from the royal capital to step forward as a supervising team.
Anyone who disturbed the morale of the army would be taken away with a knife. The disturbance was soon calmed down.
But the arrival of the fireball was something they were unable to stop.
Boom! Boom!
The fireballs were stone bombs coated with gasoline. The ones that hit the wall were fine, leaving only spider web-like cracks and a charred area, but the ones that fell into the defenders were extremely powerful.
The flames hit the soldiers and immediately spread all over the body. The fireballs could also roll and were larger than ordinary people. Under the impact, one fireball could kill and injure more than ten people.
For defenders who were unlucky, sometimes a fireball happened to sweep over the squad just as they were lining up, and the entire squad of twelve was wiped out.
"Fight back! Fight back quickly!"
The officers and soldiers of Rongtie Fort were hit by two waves of fireballs, and they started shouting and cursing.
The artillerymen in the bunker were crying and looking at their leader at a loss.
The artillery commander was an old officer in his fifties. He bit his thin lips and insisted not to fight back.
"The distance is too far!" the artillery commander sighed distressedly: "The range of the ballista is only 800 meters. Counterattack is just a waste of ammunition and exposes our attack position."
"Then we can't just do nothing!" A tall red-haired knight strode behind the artillery commander.
"It's Lord Mitte, the leader of the Knights!" Seeing the red-haired knight, the artillerymen leaned back one after another.
"The morale of the troops on the city wall who were beaten without fighting back was severely damaged." Captain Mitte quickly came to the artillery commander and took out a dark red seal.
"The world's rare thing...the seal of the Lord of Wind." Captain Mitt Knight said: "It can give all objects the power of wind and reduce the resistance during flight."
"This is the rare thing in the world! I didn't expect that the Lord of the City would be willing to take it out." The artillery commander was a veteran, and he couldn't help but recall it when he saw the seal.
"No, this does not belong to the city lord." Knight Miter shook his head: "This world wonder belongs to the Grand Duke of Yanan. The Grand Duke asked me to bring it to help this time."
"So that's it. Did the city lord even give away his family's rare items in order to beg for surrender?" The artillery commander couldn't help but feel a little disappointed when he heard the secret.
He had a feeling of being betrayed by his master's family.
Knight Mitt patted the ballista next to him: "Use the power of the Wind Lord's Seal and counterattack quickly."
"But Master Mitte Knights." The artillery commander hesitated and decided to fulfill his duties: "Even if you have the power of the world's wonders, the range is still not enough!"
"It doesn't matter, shoot quickly!"
Knight Mitte ordered dissatisfiedly, and the artillery commander had no choice but to give the order.
Soon, when the fifth wave of fireballs streaked into the sky, Ironfort's ballistae struck back.
The crossbow arrow with a light red gas shield flew through the air at a faster speed than usual, and the trajectory it drew caused a burst of cheers from the officers and soldiers on the city wall.
Puff!
The crossbow arrow traveled a distance of more than 1,200 meters before falling to the ground and piercing into the soil.
Apart from boosting morale, the ballistae accomplished nothing as the artillery commander said.
This result made the conceited Knight Miter's face tense up unnaturally, but he still ordered the shooting and continued to use the strange objects in his hands to enhance the crossbow.
"Oh! This distance...well, it is consistent with the rumors!" Seeing the performance of the crossbow arrows and noticing the faint red light, Xiao Yu touched his chin and his eyes flashed:
"This is the effect of the world's rare objects. This is not a one-time consumption type. Once I occupy this city, I can take this thing as my own!"
"But... before that, please clear the way for my army!"
Xiao Yu took out the Moon Chasing Crossbow and fired the crossbow arrows at several ballista positions on the city wall.
bump!
Compared with its kind that could only fly 1,200 meters after being blessed with the effect of World Rare Objects, the Moon-Chasing Crossbow easily flew over a distance of more than 1,500 meters and smashed through the bunker, knocking away the ballistae and officers and soldiers inside.
Scattered in the air.
Just like this, one arrow at a time, the ballistas on the city wall soon collectively misfired.
Knight Mitte, who had just used up the energy of his seal and left a bunker, felt a harsh sound piercing the air. The wind pressure even affected his body shape. He couldn't help but hold on to Cheng Duo and turn around.
Suddenly, he was shocked to find that the fortress behind him had been smashed into ruins, with ballistae and other objects scattered in the air.
And the black shadow that crashed into the fortress still hit the city lord's mansion, cutting off a corner of the mansion.
"Not good!" Looking at the ruins, Mitte Knight's expression changed, and for the first time he regretted his arrogance.
"Those rebels are about to start a general attack!"
Unexpectedly, the enemy was so terrifying. Mitte Knight, who easily wiped out the strongest ballistae defense system in the city defense system, had already guessed the future.
Sure enough, General Babu, who was very sensitive to the situation on the battlefield, waved his arm, and the guards immediately dispersed and gave orders.
A few barbarian warriors wearing Keke brand armor and holding Pepsi brand shields took the lead and rushed out shouting and holding ladders.
The rest of the barbarian vanguard followed closely behind them pushing siege engines, causing the whole earth to tremble.
"Quick! Shoot! Shoot!"
"So fast! Those savages run so fast!"
Amidst the shouts of the city wall defenders, the drunken barbarian warriors stimulated their physical potential, and ran out steamingly at the speed of flying men, like cheetahs rushing to the city wall.
The defenders' bows and arrows hit their shields and armors. Although most of them penetrated the armor and shields, the aluminum alloy material blocked these arrows that had lost their inertia, leaving most of the dead barbarians with only flesh wounds.
Flesh wounds would not have any effect on the barbarians at all.
In fact, after being drunk, even if these dead barbarians were shot in the eyes, they continued to charge against the rain of arrows without realizing it.
puff!
The ladder leaned against the city wall, and the defenders quickly sent heavy armored soldiers forward.
It's just that the first ones to climb the city wall were the berserker warriors among the barbarians. After drinking enough wine, these shirtless men's blood boiled to the limit. Their strength was already comparable to the extraordinary power used by the first-level knights.
.
As soon as they jumped into the enemy's formation, they swung their battle axes or heavy hammers fiercely, and blood splashed all around them.
"Kill, kill these barbarians!" an officer shouted in horror, urging his men to approach the climbing barbarian monster.
After a while of fighting, the officer seized the opportunity of the barbarian being grabbed by his hands and feet by several subordinates, and quickly went around and slashed at him with a knife.
Snapped!
The sword flashed across, and a scratch appeared on the back armor of the barbarian opposite.
It’s just that this touch doesn’t feel right!
The officer was stunned for a moment. He found that the blade he swung was actually slid away by the opponent's strange armor, causing most of the force to slide away. Maybe the killing blow just broke the barbarian's skin?
"Roar!"
The injured barbarian's eyes were blood red, and his hair fell out in large swaths. Immediately, his figure grew from 1.78 meters to 2.56 meters, and even his armor was in tatters.
The barbarian, who became stronger after becoming bald, gasped with hot breath and shook away the people around him. He grabbed the officer who attacked him, ignored his plea for mercy and tore the officer in half alive and with armor!
"It's the violent transformation of barbarians!"
The leader of the Mitte Knights was just about to order the knights to attack. When he saw the barbarians on the city wall becoming bald and getting stronger, he couldn't help but take a breath:
"Where did Enric find the barbarians... It's just a collective madness, there are so many monsters that can become violent... God, there are at least two hundred violent barbarians equivalent to knights!"
"The wilderness barbarians have such strength. They have already entered the Ironforge Plains. How could they join Enric?"
The old city lord who hid in the tower of the inner city also said in disbelief: "God, could it be that Enrique has some secret method that stimulates the blood power of barbarians? Yes, that must be the case, so the secrets of the royal family are
It’s going to have something to do with wilderness!”
