The dense stone bullets smashed into the attacking snow giant team, and the snow giant that was hit fell to the ground almost immediately.
Although the Snow Giant is equal to the human knight in terms of rank, in a real fight, it is almost impossible for an ordinary human knight to defeat a snow giant warrior alone. The snow giant's size advantage is too great for humans.
But being big is sometimes a good thing, and sometimes it's a bad thing. When you are big, the target is naturally bigger, so the hit rate of the thrown stone bullets becomes much higher. In this round of hundreds of stone bullets, the hit rate actually reached
An astonishing 20%, more than ten snow giants were directly hit and fell to the ground.
Even an earth-level master would not be able to bear the impact of such a stone projectile thrown thousands of meters away. The strong body of the Snow Giant warrior looked extremely fragile in front of the stone projectile.
In addition to the snow giants who were directly hit and fell immediately, a considerable number of snow giant warriors were injured by the bullets, because the ground in the snowfield is almost all solid frozen soil, and the ground has no power to absorb the kinetic energy of the stone bullets.
All stone projectiles will bounce back violently after hitting the ground. Although their power is not as powerful as a direct projectile hit, hitting the snow giant after bouncing up can still cause serious injuries to the opponent. Most of them hit the lower body and can immediately cause injuries to the legs.
A fracture occurs.
One round of projectiles from the trebuchet reduced the number of the attacking Snow Giants to nearly thirty, and made the leader of the Xuefeng Tribe who was watching the battle behind feel a pang of pain.
However, there was no turning back when the bow was fired, and at some point, soldiers from the Royal Court came behind to supervise the battle. The Xuefeng tribe could only continue to direct the soldiers to attack and speed up the advance.
"Divine Mighty Crossbow!"
"preparation!"
"put!"
"Buzz, buzz, buzz..."
A low machine sound sounded, and the snow giant had entered a distance of 500 meters from the first line of defense, which was considered to be the best attack range of the divine crossbow. The power of these divine crossbows that can hurt the dragon is quite astonishing.
It's not much weaker than the trebuchet just now.
There were not many divine crossbows arranged on the periphery, only about twenty, but their shooting accuracy was higher than that of the trebuchets. After one round of shooting, a dozen more snow giants fell to the ground.
"Boost!"
"Rush over!"
"Smash those weak humans into meat pies!"
The figure of the snow giant is getting closer and closer. The distance of several hundred meters does not even take ten seconds for the snow giant to enter the running state. The Shenwei crossbow that has fired a round of arrows is still being loaded nervously, and the soldiers responsible for melee combat
Under the command of the officer, they had already raised their spears and picked up the oil drums, and were preparing for a hand-to-hand fight.
"Dong, dong, dong..."
The sound of the running snow giants shook the earth, and every sound was like knocking on the hearts of the soldiers in front. Only when facing these behemoths nearly ten meters high can one feel the powerlessness, even if the soldiers were standing in front of them.
It is difficult for them to feel safe enough even with large and sturdy horses.
Discipline and morale maintain their courage in facing the snow giant.
"boom!"
"boom!"
"ah!"
The first snow giant successfully rushed into the human horse-rejecting formation. The four-meter-high large-scale horse-repelling formation could not stop the running snow giant. Most of the snow giants running in front jumped up and jumped over
A thin defensive formation on the outside.
But before they could start their killing spree, the stinging pain on their soles made them roar in pain.
To cooperate with the Juma, ground spikes were placed not far behind. These spikes were carefully covered by the snow by the defenders. Some unlucky snow giant warriors stepped on the spikes as soon as they jumped in.
Originally, due to their rough skin and thick flesh, it would be difficult for ordinary soldiers to cause much damage to them even if they stabbed them with a spear. However, using their own weight to step on the spikes made it easier to break through the defenses.
The giant's feet were directly pierced by sharp thorns, and he shrank to the ground in pain, and his mobility was greatly reduced.
"Team kerosene! Come on!"
The Dragon Army soldiers who had been prepared here immediately, under the leadership of their respective captains, rushed towards the snow giant in their hands with kerosene and torches.
This is also the experience summed up by humans in the last battle of Snowfield City. Except for knight-level masters with fighting spirit, ordinary soldiers can't really cause any harm to the snow giants with the weapons in their hands. They use weapons to attack the snow giants like those in World War II.
Just like a soldier holding a rifle to fight a tank, he can only hear the sound.
To injure the Snow Giant as much as possible, you must hold a bucket of kerosene and pour it on it, and then ignite it to cause real casualties to the Snow Giant.
"boom!"
"ah!"
Several huge torches soon appeared on the human outer positions. The ignited snow giant fell to the ground and rolled in pain without dying, which cleared some traps for the similar people behind.
"boom!"
However, the sacrifices required to ignite the snow giant are definitely not small. The fallen snow giant is not really powerless to resist. Looking at the humans approaching, even if it is suffering from great pain, it still knows to pick up the stone spear and stone ax in its hand to resist.
.
Often, four or five human soldiers would be swept away with one sweep of their stone spears. These flying soldiers would have almost no chance of survival, and even leaving intact corpses was a luxury.
What's more, the snow giants from behind are also constantly pouring in. In addition to the snow giants that jumped over Juma at the beginning, the snow giants behind began to move away from Juma and destroy the traps. There were even snow giants using ice blades to destroy the spikes on the ground. Obviously
There is also some preparation.
"Buzz, buzz, buzz..."
However, the soldiers in front fought hard and bought time for the reloading of the Shenwei crossbow. More than twenty Shenwei crossbows on the periphery fired again. Although the two sides were now mixed together, there was no need to worry about accidental damage to a target as big as the Snow Giant, and because the distance was enough
Nearby, more than twenty crossbow bolts were fired, and at least a dozen more snow giants fell to the ground.
"Why do these despicable human weapons feel more terrifying than before?"
The leader of the Snow Wind Tribe had participated in the attack on Snowfield City before. Although the human war equipment at that time was powerful, the accuracy was not that high, and he felt a little uneasy.
But the outer defense line cannot stop the impact of the Snow Giant. The soldiers of the Snow Wind Department have a high tolerance for casualties. Perhaps they were created as war weapons. Even after being out of control for many years, the Snow Giant still retains its warlike nature.
, facing the resistance of the dragon army, it was aroused to be ferocious. Because of its strong individual strength, the first circle of defense was quickly smashed to pieces by the snow giant.
"Sir Richard! There is a gap in the third section of Beiwai's defense line! Hundreds of snow giants have crossed the defense line!"
"Sir Richard! The outer five sections of defense have been breached by the Snow Giant. The Snow Giant is only 500 meters away from the city wall!"
"Lord Richard, something is wrong!"
Christine, who was commanding with Richard here, seemed to notice something unusual when the snow giant broke through the defense line, and suddenly said to Richard:
"I don't see the purpose of the Snow Giant. If it is a test, we should not send so many troops. Even if we only send half of the troops and attack a few points on the outer defense line, we can still break through smoothly. The outer defense line is just a buffer to delay the Snow Giant and avoid
They can just attack the city wall directly."
"If it is a large-scale attack, sending so many troops is not enough. At least they should be followed by a part of the reinforcements to attack in a relay, so as not to give the defenders a chance to breathe."
"Haha, it seems that their internal problems have not been solved."
Compared to Christine's doubts, Richard had a thorough understanding of the Snow Giant issue. The Snow Giants attacking this time were tribal warriors. There was a bit of the chairman's intention of using the enemy to consume the unknown, which seemed shrewd.
In fact, it is beyond stupid.
However, Richard would not be polite. If the other party wanted to consume it, he would just accept it as ordered.
"Let the golem and the mighty crossbow activate."
"Yes, sir!"
At a distance of five hundred meters, magic mages and archers are still out of reach, but they have already entered the attack range of magic mages and divine crossbows. The hundreds of divine crossbows in the city are several times the number in the last war. Only the King Kong Golem is because
The reason for the lack of materials is that there are only more than 20 units.
Richard gave the order, and the entire Snowfield City seemed to be activated. The number of hundreds of Shenwei crossbows was already quite terrifying. They were obviously heavy weapons at the level of bed crossbows, but they fired like a volley of bows and arrows, with King Kong in the middle.
The red energy rays emitted by the golem caused hundreds of casualties to the soldiers of the Xuefeng tribe outside.
The two rune crossbows enhanced by Christine's skills also performed quite well. If the divine crossbow is a covering strike, the rune crossbow is a precise sniper, and it is fully automatic. Although the power is not higher than that of the divine crossbow,
There are too many crossbows, but the killing effect is several levels higher.
After the Divine Power Crossbow fired a round and entered the reloading stage, the Rune God Crossbow could continue to attack non-stop, causing casualties to the Snow Giant even with a single arrow. It felt a bit like a dull knife slicing flesh.
"stone!"
"Fight back!"
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh..."
"Bang, bang, bang..."
Of course, the Snow Giants can't just stand and take a beating. Although they are hindered by the disgusting horse-defying defense line on the outside, it does not mean that they have no means to launch a counterattack against the city wall. The Snow Giants do not have fancy siege equipment. First, the snowfield
The resources and productivity cannot reach that level. Instead, most of the time, the Snow Giant itself is a powerful siege machine. Most of them have stones slightly larger than human heads hanging on their bodies. With a wave of their arms, the effect is
Not much worse than a catapult.
The flying rocks rained down from the air, and most of them hit the heads of the defenders on the city wall. Even if the defenders had already prepared to set up the curtains, those who were hit were still turned upside down, especially the soldiers operating the divine crossbows. In order to ensure the shooting frequency,
Unable to hide behind the wall, they could only carry the stone bullets and continue fighting. At least more than two hundred soldiers were killed by the stone bullets, and more than ten Shenwei crossbows were damaged.
There was even a stone bullet that accidentally flew towards where Richard was standing, but before Richard could make any move, the sword master on the side had already unsheathed his sword, and a burst of fighting spirit split the flying stone bullet into pieces.
Cut in half.
Facing the casualties on the city wall, Richard and Christine showed almost no emotion. They still stood firmly at the top of the city, urging the soldiers operating the divine crossbows to continue attacking.
If the fight continues based on this casualty ratio, the first person to be unable to withstand it will definitely be the Snow Giant.
"Buzz, buzz, buzz..."
The mighty crossbows on the city wall once again exerted their power. These carefully trained crossbowmen were not affected by the snow giant's stone bullets at all. If a companion fell to the ground, no matter how tragic the death, the crossbowmen prepared next to him would immediately rush to take his place.
His position is not afraid of exchanging lives with the snow giant.
Hundreds of giant arrows were fired at the Snow Giant again, causing dozens of casualties. Coupled with the attacks of the rune ballista and the Vajra Golem, the Snow Giant once again cost nearly a hundred casualties.
Before even touching the city wall, the snow giant suffered more than 20% casualties.
The soldiers of the Xuefeng Tribe were still fighting with gritted teeth, trying to overcome the entanglement of the humans at their feet, while the leader of the Xuefeng Tribe who was watching the battle from a distance was so distressed that he couldn't stand it anymore.
