Alien Lord

Chapter 612: Heavy Casualties

? The power of the golden juice is still a little smaller than that of the stone and the rolling log.

Seeing the golden juice on the top of the city, the number of rolling logs and stones began to decrease, and the morale of the Black Wind Bandit soldiers below the city was greatly boosted.

Next, countless Heifeng bandits soldiers launched an attack again, and countless Heifeng bandits climbed up through a large number of ladders.

But at this moment, from the horse face of the left city wall and the urn city on the right, the figures of the archers who had disappeared from the crenel for a long time reappeared. They stretched out their faces with firm faces and their hands were very steady. Holding the bow and arrow, under the command of the commander, he aimed at the Heifeng bandits on the ladder.

"Shoot!" With an order, the archers attacked from both sides, and countless arrows shot at these black wind thieves. Their firepower was extremely fierce. Whenever there was a shower of arrows, there would be a horrific scream from outside the city wall. Crying, those Black Wind Bandit soldiers who were hit, even though they were wearing several layers of heavy armor, faced such a close-range heavy arrow attack, their armor was broken, and they screamed and fell from the ladder.

Among them, there are still a few quasi-warriors. Although relying on their strong strength, they escaped the death threat of heavy arrows, but they fell directly from the 40-50 meter high ladder, and finally fell to their deaths. thing.

The ones who were even more unlucky fell directly to the ground and became string gourds.

You know, on the ground at the foot of the city wall, there are countless Heifeng Pirates with spears waiting to climb the ladder. Therefore, those Heifeng Pirates who fell from the ladder will inevitably fall directly to these pikemen. above the tip of the gun.

At this time, the hundreds of Black Wind Pirates archers under the city, after shooting more than a dozen rounds before, felt that their arms were not enough at this time, so the number of suppressed arrows was also greatly reduced. The threat above the city is insufficient.

Even those powerful ballistas, although the ballista does not have to worry about arm strength, but after more than half an hour of continuous suppression and shooting, the heavy arrows you carry on the ballista will consume almost the same amount. If you want to display its power again, you have to wait for the people behind to bring you arrows, otherwise, these giant ballistas are just waste.

Without the counterattack suppression of the giant ballista and archers, the archers on the city wall shot at the black wind bandits more cheerfully. Correspondingly, the number of losses of the black wind bandit army began to rise sharply.

As for the soldiers of the Heifeng Pirates climbing the city, they have to be busy climbing the city at this time, and it is impossible to shoot arrows. Only some powerful archers are left, and they are still shooting from a distance, which is regarded as suppression. However, the number of such warrior archers Too few, in such a big battle, it won't play much role, not to mention, Lin Ze still has such warrior archers, so at this moment, Lin Ze's side has an absolute advantage.

"Hehe, these Black Wind Bandits are not a real elite army after all. They actually have a vacuum of firepower when attacking the city. It seems that the Black Wind Bandits are like this!" Lin Ze said with a smile.

Lin Ze saw the black wind stealing the giant ballista under the city wall. Seeing this, Lin Ze relaxed a lot.

Because, a truly elite army definitely considers everything before the battle. During the middle of the battle, there will never be a firepower gap. Even if there is a firepower gap, it will be after a long battle. There is no way to appear, not like these black wind bandits under the city wall. After only an hour of fighting, there was a vacuum of firepower.

At this moment, Lin Ze's determination to win became even stronger!

...................................

"My lord, the brothers suffered a lot of casualties." A guard next to Lu Ming said with a trace of unbearable eyes.

"Yeah, the casualties are not small!" There was also a trace of grief in Lu Ming's eyes, the enemy's strength was beyond his imagination.

Not far from the outside of the siege army, Lu Ming stood directly at the front, surrounded by hundreds of shield chariots, and thousands of heavy infantry guarding him. The strength of the archers in Lin Ze's hands made him Lu Ming didn't dare to underestimate it in his heart.

Looking at the soldiers of the Black Wind Bandits on the top of the city, several or even a dozen of them would be killed every second, Lu Ming, as the commander, was deeply saddened.

Lu Ming was familiar with the East City Gate before, so Xiao Quan was directly appointed as the first general. This is not only the importance Xiao Quan attaches to Lu Ming, but also the opportunity Lu Ming asked for.

For this reason, Xiao Quan directly handed over 50,000 troops to him, and 30,000 cannon fodder troops were also handed over to him for him to use to attack the city.

Unexpectedly, before approaching the moat, there were hundreds of casualties in the army, all of whom died under the stone bomb attack of the enemy at the top of the city, and several of them were warriors. You must know that every warrior in the army has comparable combat power Hundreds of Heifeng bandit soldiers were killed by stone bullets without even getting close to the moat. At that time, Lu Ming was really depressed psychologically.

Then, on the way to the moat, hundreds of black wind bandits and hundreds of cannon fodder were killed and wounded by the enemy's stone bullets and archers on the city. The number of casualties in the middle increased to ten. several.

The corners of Lu Ming's eyes twitched!

Then, after approaching the moat, under Lu Ming's order, the siege troops were divided into three groups. On the left side of the city gate, a leader of the Heifeng Bandits with a thousand households led four or five thousand Heifeng Bandit soldiers and more than 3,000 cannon fodder troops to command the siege. At the city wall on the right side of the city gate, another 4,000 to 5,000 troops, plus 2,000 cannon fodder troops, led the attack by a Heifeng bandit leader of the 1,000 household level.

In the middle is the most important siege location. Lu Ming directly dispatched a commander-level leader of the Black Wind Bandits to launch an attack with an army of 6,000, plus 6,000 cannon fodder troops.

For the next battle, Lu Ming explained in detail before these troops set off. First, let all the archers serve as cover to suppress the attack on the city wall, and then let those cannon fodder troops fill the moat and clear the front of the city wall. Those who reject horses, staghorn wood, and barbed wire.

It can be said that Lu Ming's offensive plan is still very good. The moat, horse repelling, antler wood, and caltrops were all quickly settled.

Of course, the casualties paid in the middle also made Lu Ming heartbroken. Just on the side of the siege troops on the left, there were thousands of casualties in the army. Forty or fifty of them were quasi warriors and warriors, especially hundreds of shield chariots and giant ballistas were destroyed.

This is only the casualties of the attacking troops on the left, as well as the casualties of the attacking troops on the middle and right, which are also no less than the casualties of the attacking troops on the left. Lu Ming's heart aches because of this.

The casualties of the cannon fodder troops were not too heavy, but it was impossible for them to participate in the attack.

The cannon fodder troops are originally consumables, so they are all without armor or only wear tattered leather armor. In the middle, they not only have to risk the shooting of the enemy's archers on the city, but also many of the cannon fodder troops The feet of the personnel were pierced by sharp barbed caltrops, and many people had their hands injured when carrying those horses full of iron thorns.

In this way, these cannon fodder troops have lost their combat effectiveness for a while.

Lu Ming felt a pity for a while. He really wanted these cannon fodder troops to consume more military supplies of the enemy on the city wall, so as to reduce the casualties of his elite troops. Unfortunately, this idea can only be thought of now.

With great difficulty, the moat was filled up, the horses, antlers, and caltrops in front of the city wall were cleared away, and a large number of siege equipment was brought up. The ballista and archers also suppressed the attack on the city wall. At this time, The soldiers of the Black Wind Pirates began to ascend the ladder to the city.

Seeing this, Lu Ming was actually extremely excited in his heart at that time, he thought that success was just around the corner.

However, soon, the cruel reality let Lu Ming know that success seems to be close at hand, but it is only close at hand, and it is still far away from his real success.

The Black Wind Pirates' siege troops were here, and they were hit by countless stones and gold juice from the enemies on the city, and countless enemy archers on both sides also shot at the same time, which caused the casualties of the siege department to increase rapidly.

Lu Ming roughly estimated that there were nearly 2,000 Heifeng bandit soldiers casualties here, and half of them were heavy infantry in heavy armor.

These soldiers had not climbed the city wall yet, and the casualties were so heavy. Including the casualties of the quasi warriors, the number of warriors had risen to three or four hundred. How could Lu Ming not let Lu Ming burst into tears? !

In the distance from the left side of the east city gate to the right side of the city wall, there are now scattered corpses of Heifeng bandit soldiers, as well as countless screaming wounded.

Some dead soldiers all had huge mouths and horrified expressions in their eyes, especially those who were scalded to death, scalded by golden juice, and smashed to death, smashed, or injured by huge rolling wooden stones The soldiers of the Black Wind Pirates looked even more miserable.

That's good, at least they won't feel pain anymore when they die.

Those who are really suffering are those injured Heifeng bandits. Using the medical methods in the Heifeng bandit army, these injured Heifeng bandits soldiers will not survive nine times, and many of them will even directly die of pain.

Before he died, he would have to suffer from severe pain for a long time. Thinking about such a situation, he felt scared.

Among these wounded and corpses, nearly two to three hundred were heavy infantry from the Black Wind Bandit Corps. In addition to the damage to them caused by rolling wood and stones and golden juice in the city, some of them were targeted by Lin Ze's archers. Take care, under the close-range shooting of heavy arrows, the two layers of heavy armor worn by the heavy infantry did not bring them safety.

The heavy arrows of the archers in the city can easily break through their double-layer armor, causing them to die tragically on the ground.

Or be knocked off the ladder directly, fall heavily on the ground, and become a string of gourds...
