Chapter 413

Riding on a Griffin, the Duke of Turing saw numerous boulders piled up in front of the wall of Fenglei castle, one in the East and one in the West.

At the end of the night yesterday, Turing Tuo heard a report from the scouts. He immediately ordered the scouts to investigate again.

After paying the price of hundreds of lives, the scouts returned that Sauron's army was transporting boulders to the battlefield beyond the wall, trying to create obstacles on the battlefield to prevent the army from attacking the city.

At that time, Turing Tuo was hesitant to send cavalry to stop Sauron?

Sauron's army was too close to the city wall of Fenglei castle. It was completely within the range of all artillery and catapults. More cavalry were sent, and they were all going to die. There were fewer cavalry to send, but they didn't work, so they were killed.

And it was hard for Soren to change anything in just a few hours.

Early this morning, Turing Tuo and Chen took a look from the height. As expected, hundreds of meters in front of the Fenglei Fort defense line were densely covered with obstacles made of huge stones.

The tallest is only half a person tall, and it's completely disorganized!

Looking down from the sky from a Griffin, these boulder obstacles are also very sparse.

Chen Li burst out laughing and said: "Sorun is really poor in skills. Just a few stones, he even wants to block my army of several hundred thousand?"

He completely ignored these scattered boulders and obstacles, and they did not seem to be able to stop them.

And the arrow on the string, have to send, time is not good for you!

Every day of delay, someone may surrender to Sauron.

The appearance of these boulder obstacles can not affect Chen Li's will to fight a decisive battle. Hundreds of thousands of troops are still charging madly!

……

Sauron stood at the head of the city, feeling the shiver under his feet. Looking at the soldiers around, they all look blue.

Looking at hundreds of thousands of surging soldiers, it really seems like an endless tide.

At this time, the originally solid and thick Fenglei Fort defense line appears particularly fragile.

Take a deep breath and Sauron looks behind. Tens of thousands of troops have lined up on the ground behind the walls.

In the whole city of Tianshui, about 170000 soldiers can be used by Sauron, of which 100000 are placed in the defense line of Fenglei fort, and 100000 pairs of soldiers are separated from each other.

Of the 100000 garrison troops, 30000 were distributed over the city wall, including 15000 rock robbers and 15000 Soxhlet city guards.

The remaining 70000, all in the barracks space behind the city wall.

Ten thousand Luan Yang revenge army, 15000 rock bandits army, and 45000 new Southeast army.

The new Southeast army was reorganized from the captives of the southeast army of Chenwei. Soren was most worried about this army.

Sure enough, 45000 new Southeast Army soldiers were pale and blue, and even their bodies were shaking slightly.

They must be full of fear and reverie.

In fact, many of them have changed their armour, and they have changed their weapons.

So they have a certain sense of gratitude to Soren, but on loyalty? It's hard to overestimate, especially when it comes to life and death, anything can happen.

On the contrary, Luan Yang's Revenge army had red eyes, ferocious faces and a desire to fight. They wanted to wash away their humiliation.

In particular, Tu Liyang found Sorun several times and asked him to arrange Luan Yang revenge army to take the lead.

According to Sauron, Luan Yang's Revenge army has good fighting will and general combat effectiveness, so it can't take the lead.

Those who stick to the front line of the city wall can only be the most loyal and elite Saussure city guards, as well as the most ferocious rock bandits army!

And the rock bandit corps, heard the enemy outside the tsunami like shouting, all of a sudden the whole body was excited to shiver.

To fight, to kill, and still so many people.

It's so much fun, it's so much fun!

"Ha ha ha..." The army of rock bandits above the wall has begun to cut their faces with knives and burn their morale.

Under the city wall, the rock bandits were unable to sit still. They started to lick the blade with their tongue and licked their blood.

"Gaga..."

"Wuwuwuwu..."

The new army of Southeast China could not help but relax a little.

One of the soldiers turned his head and saw that they were all acquaintances. He could not help but say to a fellow countryman on the side: "in fact, marquis Sauron is a little arrogant, but he is still a good man. The reorganization has not disturbed us. We are all together."

……

"Fight to the death, the one who retreats will die!"

"Sauron

The charge from the army, the front has entered the range of artillery!

"Fire Fire Fire... "

Sauron's order!

"Boom, boom!"

There was a series of loud shouts of tsunami from the door.Then, hundreds of solid bullets shot out like black lightning!

At this time, there was no need to aim. The whole battlefield was on the flat ground between two mountains, which was only about four miles wide.

Hundreds of thousands of troops, like ants, can hit with their eyes closed.

"Shua Shua Shua..."

Hundreds of solid shells, suddenly hundreds of blood channels. Where he passed, all his bones flew and died.

One shell can kill dozens of people!

A round of shelling brought thousands of casualties.

However, for a 400000 army, it was a drop in the bucket. It was like a splash from a pond and soon disappeared.

The preparation time for each round of artillery firing is too long. Even if Sauron's artillery is skilled enough, it still takes about six or seven minutes.

When the afterloading rapid fire gun comes, that's the real gospel.

Soren imagined that if there were hundreds of rear loading rapid fire guns, all of which were self-propelled shells, plus high explosives. That's guaranteed to kill these hundreds of thousands of people.

If there are Markham machine guns, not too many, a hundred will do! Sauron promised to kill the 400000 in a few hours.

Unfortunately, none of these Sauron!

Not to mention the afterloading rapid fire gun and Markham, which he would not have in his lifetime, except for high explosives.

At present, his only hope is that these boulders in front of him can be effective!

……

Hundreds of thousands of troops still roared forward.

It's only two miles away from Fenglei fort.

From here on, the ground ahead is no longer flat.

Last night, after sleeping, Sauron felt fresh and had an idea.

Therefore, he sent tens of thousands of troops and thousands of pack horses to transport the stone strips which had not been used up in the construction of Fenglei Fort defense line to the outside of the city wall, and put them randomly to create obstacles on the battlefield.

There are advantages and disadvantages in placing these things. The disadvantage is that it will affect the lethality of guns and stone throwing machines, and it can not completely stop the soldiers from leaving the army, so it can only be effectively delayed.

But what is the most important thing for Soren?

Time!

If the firing interval between guns and catapults is too long, then create obstacles to slow down the enemy's speed and time.

Time is more precious to Sauron than gold.

Soon, the vanguard troops from the army had already rushed within a mile, and all kinds of obstacles here became more dense.

The soldiers who were carrying the siege ladder can still be unblocked and helpless. At this time, they need a hundred turns and thousands of turns, and the speed is even slower.

"Catapult, launch!"

"Whoosh, whoosh..."

Hundreds of giant catapults, hurling them.

This time, all of them were original cluster bombs. There were countless lead and steel bullets in the powder bag of several hundred jin.

Huge powder ball, in the air across an arc.

Fall into the sea of enemy troops.

"Boom, boom..."

Earth shaking explosion!

That terrible picture, appeared again!

As if a metal storm had blown by, nearly a million steel balls exploded suddenly.

The whole area, completely empty!

Because of this area, there are boulders everywhere. After numerous steel ball lead bullets are fired at the top, they will rebound and cause secondary damage.

There was a cloud of blood in the air.

After a long time, some people got up again and again!

"Go, go, go..."

The officer next to him roared desperately!

Suddenly, the soldiers, covered with blood, continued to rush forward.

Some of them slowed down, while others fell to the ground directly after a few steps and never got up again.

Behind countless troops, still madly rushed up.

But within 800 meters of the city wall, it was immediately blocked by numerous boulders. It's like a huge wave hitting the reef and blocking it directly.

All of a sudden, the whole army of charge formation chaos!

……

Soren's strategy was to stack boulder barriers between 800 and 150 meters from the city wall.

In this way, the enemy 800 meters away will be hit by solid artillery shells.

If the enemy is within the range of 100 meters to 500 meters, hit them with a stone throwing machine.

The enemy within 150 meters will be hit by artillery, shotguns and scorpion type stone throwers.

This kind of obstacle separation tactic was originally a whim of Sauron. He thought that it might be effective, but it was difficult to fundamentally change the situation of the war.

However, I didn't expect that it played such a big role.

If the number of people is small and the impact is not great, just shuttle between these obstacles.However, he was separated from hundreds of thousands of troops. Once he charged, he could not stop at all.

The front wants to stop, but the back is constantly crowding up. What's more, it's a siege army, which needs to carry more than ten meters of siege ladder.

All of a sudden, the whole army was completely stuck in these obstacle areas. Not only did the speed slow down, but also countless armies crowded into a group.

On the battlefield, time is precious, especially for Sauron, every minute is gold.

Because of his catapult, his gun can be fired once every six or seven minutes.

……

On the battlefield, the army of Chen Li was clearly divided into three parts by Sauron.

The first part, which has already broken into 150 meters, has already attacked under the city wall. There are only about 230000 people in this part.

The second part was stuck in the 800 meter boulder barrier. It was very crowded and slow, with tens of thousands of people.

The third part, 800 meters away from the city wall of Fenglei castle, hundreds of thousands of people have slowed down completely, waiting for the troops in front to pass through the boulder obstacles.

The 800 meter boulder obstacle group is like a filter, which can make the enemy changeable and slow down, and give Soren the most precious time.

Soon, the second round of several hundred guns in Fenglei Fort defense line is ready!

By this time, 230000 people had already rushed under the wall.

"Scorpion catapult ready, launch!" Sauron gave an order.

Hundreds of small and medium-sized scorpion catapults were launched, and the powder balls with tens of Jin were thrown out.

This kind of catapult is launched by elastic force, and it can hit a short distance of more than 100 meters. But it's smaller and faster.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!"

Hundreds of gunpowder balls flew more than 100 meters and hit the 230000 troops who rushed under the city wall.

"Boom, boom..."

The explosion was so violent that countless steel balls and lead bullets were fired.

Thousands of lives were harvested.

Soon, the second round of shelling is ready!

However, Sauron did not attack the 230000 enemies under the wall with artillery shells, but used solid shells to attack the enemies 800 meters away.

Because the enemy there is more crowded, can cause more crazy damage.

As for the twenty or thirty thousand enemies under the city wall, rush up and rush up!

"Boom, boom..."

Hundreds of guns, boom again!

Hundreds of solid iron balls, like lightning, make a sharp whistling sound across the air and hit the enemy 800 meters away!

Because of the obstacles in front of the boulders, the army here is already crowded and full of people!

After hundreds of iron balls hit!

"Brush..."

The plough opened hundreds of blood channels.

Sauron's shelling created unprecedented damage.

Countless enemies were crushed to pieces and killed.

Even, because of the tragic death, people turn pale!

……

At this time, the front army of Chen Li had already rushed under the wall.

After two rounds of killing, only about 20000 people rushed under the city wall, but the army of Chen Li in the back continued to pass through the obstacles and rush under the wall.

"Climb the wall, climb the wall!"

"Bang bang bang bang!"

After a loud noise, hundreds of siege ladders were added to the wall, and countless soldiers climbed up like ants.

For the sake of the war, Chen Li even rebuilt the siege ladder, half of which were welded with iron bars.

Although the siege ladder is heavy and needs more than a dozen strong men to carry it, it is very strong and is not afraid of fire.

The head of the siege ladder carried a huge fire shield.

One in three is wearing a fireproof Cape!

"BAM Bang Bang..."

On the wall, countless barrels of fire oil fell down.

And then countless rockets were fired.

All of a sudden, the whole city wall under the burning ground burning.

"Ah Ah Ah... "

The soldiers without fire-proof cloak, once burned by a big fire, immediately sent out a terrible cry.

Struggling in the flames, soon there was no sound, fell dead!

"Climb, crawl, crawl..."

The elite Dragon Guard Corps, regardless of the terrible howl around them, is not enough for the flames all over the sky below, and climbs up crazily!

Finally

In this desperate frenzy, today's decisive battle began less than an hour. After paying the cost of 560000 casualties, Chen Li finally climbed up the wall of Fenglei fort for the first time!

Fight, entered the most brutal white-edged war!

Ten thousand rock bandits on the wall, like wild animals, were fighting and fighting.……

At this time, Soren closed his eyes instead!

Although the most cruel battle has just begun, but he has faintly seen that this decisive battle, he should win!

And the main reason for winning is that a small group of boulders.

Slow down the speed of the enemy, filter the number of enemies, so that the whole battle, into a very delicate rhythm.

This group of boulders divides the battlefield into three parts. Sauron's most sophisticated weapon can achieve maximum lethality.

Artillery hit long-range, stone throwing machine hit medium range, scorpion type stone thrower hit short-range, rock bandit Corps fight hand in hand!

Once the battle enters this active rhythm, it is really about to win!
