Chapter 393

Although Nord did not prepare the siege equipment in advance, Nord would take some carpenters and blacksmiths with him. They all belong to the baggage team and are responsible for the logistics work of Nord's army. After testing the strength of Jiman City, Nord thought of the carpenters of the baggage team.

Because the siege equipment Nord wants to build is not a simple item such as these ladders and wooden stakes, but a more advanced nest car and ladder. The nest car is an instrument similar to the mobile arrow tower. It has four wheels under it, and the middle is hollow, which allows archers to shoot arrows at the soldiers on the city wall at the top of the nest car.

Because the height of the nest car is not lower than the city wall, the archers hiding in the nest car can shoot with the archers on the city wall at the same level. Moreover, due to the height, the advantage of the city wall is basically gone.

No matter how to avoid and hide, as long as these soldiers stay on the wall, they can't avoid the attack of Nord's long-range forces. In this way, Nord's archers have great advantages. With the nest car, those archers can change the siege into a mode similar to the city defense, just like everyone on an equal footing. What depends on their personal strength.

However, it is obvious that the strength of Nord's long-range force is much stronger than the archers of the seaman kingdom. However, the reason why Nord did not use the nest car before is that it is very difficult to build, and it is also a disposable item. Although the nest car built is very strong and can be stored for a long time.

But the volume of this thing is too huge. Nord can't run around with it. Although there are four wheels at its feet, it's impossible to push it around, and it's too stupid. It's cost-effective to build one and push it around the world when attacking the city.

Nord didn't want to waste this effort before, so he didn't plan to build a nest car. If Nord had to build a nest car without attacking a town, it is estimated that it will take at least ten days for Nord to arrive in GIMAN city next year. Even if Nord builds many at the same time, it will take at least a long time.

Another kind of ladder can be understood very well. It is a ladder made of paper stacked in two sections. This ladder built by Nord is an advanced ladder. It is somewhat similar to the structure of the nest car, but the upper part of the ladder has become a folded wooden board. Soldiers can climb the wall directly through the ladder above, It can effectively avoid the damage of archers on the city wall to siege soldiers.

When these two kinds of siege equipment were determined, Nord began to set up camp and slowly build siege equipment. Another siege method Nord did not give up. Instead, Nord did not plan to attack the city during the period when he was building equipment. Therefore, Nord planned to give the enemies of Jiman city a two pronged approach to let them see Nord's means.

Moreover, during this period of preparation, Nord did not let the archers of Ximan kingdom in the city idle. Nord would send some long-range troops to provoke outside their range every day. As long as the soldiers in these arrow towers dare to show their heads, they will be mercilessly attacked by Nord archers.

Although the damage to the enemies on the city wall is very small, especially in the back, the enemies simply ignore the provocation of Nord's forces, Nord still sent archers tirelessly to provoke under the city wall. It's better than nothing. Anyway, beating children on rainy days is idle.

Moreover, this is also a powerful blow to the enemy's morale. As long as Nord persists in provocation, there will always be some soldiers of Ximan Kingdom who can't help it. After all, the soldiers are full of blood. Even the soldiers of Ximan kingdom are very bloody. Although the use of such behavior is very ruthless, the war itself is very cruel, Nord must win because the loser will have nothing.

Nord can catch more than a dozen fish from the arrow tower of the Ximan Kingdom every day, and it is less and less, because there are fewer and fewer bloody or rushed soldiers. They can learn from the casualties of their companions, and slowly they become more mature and numb.

More than ten days later, after Nord built the nest car and ladder, Nord slowly pushed them to the battlefield. Suddenly, this behemoth like an arrow tower attracted the attention of the soldiers of the Ximan Kingdom on the city wall. Including the nobles of the Ximan Kingdom, they took a breath and looked at the nest car and ladder slowly advancing towards them, His eyes were filled with horror.

Nord's soldiers pushed the behemoth hard. Even if there were four wheels at the bottom, they were all made of wood. It was very difficult to move the nearly three story building. Dozens of soldiers were needed to push near each nest car, and the movement still squirmed forward at the speed of a turtle.

Yes, it's wriggling. The speed of these nest cars is very moving. Even in plains like Jiman City, the operation of nest cars becomes very difficult, not to mention those places with complex terrain. Nord said that it is a one-time tool and there is no mistake.

For most of the day, Nord's soldiers finally pushed the nest car within 300 meters of Jiman City, and then it was time for those long-range troops to perform. Nord had prepared more than a dozen nest cars for the siege. Recently, Nord's 20000 soldiers basically had no chance to be idle.

Even if there is no battle, the soldiers of Nord's army have no free opportunity. They have a lot of work to do, even harder than when they fight, but these hardships are very worth it. Now is the time to achieve results. Nord is staring at the nest car in the rear, I want to see if the siege equipment that took so long to build is useful.

The long-range troops standing on the nest car feel very comfortable, because their vision is very broad, which is no worse than the city wall. The long-range troops in the nest car basically have a glance at the progress of the city wall, and then they can easily harvest the lives of the defensive soldiers on the city wall with the sharp tools in their hands.

The soldiers on the city wall fell down like cutting wheat. Even the soldiers in the arrow tower had no resistance, because their range could not reach Nord's nest car at all, and could not threaten the long-range troops in the nest car. This may be the rogue of the range. As long as I shoot farther than you, you have no way to take me.

After the nest car appeared under Jiman City, the soldiers of the Ximan Kingdom on the city wall became seriously injured. They didn't expect that this behemoth would be such a rogue that it could make Nord's long-range forces play such a powerful power, even if it agreed that the Ximan kingdom with archers as the main force, Those nobles did not expect that one day they would suffer such a strong arrow rain on the city wall.

Looking at the great victory of the siege, when Nord was going to use the ladder to attack the wall of Jiman City, Nord suddenly found that the ground shook, and then heard the deafening sound of horse hoofs.
