Why is it said that siege warfare is the stage to show the upper limit of strength?

Because when it comes to abuse, everyone can perform at a dominant level.

But when faced with a brutal siege, it was clear who was strong and who was weak.

The Sea of ​​the Undead is very strong, but its strength lies in its consumption.

All the coalition armies began to attack, tearing apart the sea of ​​undead like a sharp blade, and quickly reached not far from the city wall. Half of the core legions were responsible for clearing the area and blocking the approach of the undead.

The Flesh Nest, a border fortress, has a unique characteristic.

Strong on the outside and weak on the inside!

The external defense is strong, but the internal defense is weak.

On the city wall facing Diya, the space for attacking is not too large, but facing the Falcon Principality is several times larger, making it easier for the attacking side to launch.

As long as border fortresses have this characteristic, it is difficult to attack from the outside and easy to attack from the inside.

Because when building, you need to consider how to recapture it after it is occupied by the enemy.

The several-kilometer-wide wall of flesh and blood is crowded with not only war machines, but also a large number of necromancers, corpse witches, necromancers, bone archers and other long-range troops.

If we attack by force, we won't even be able to reach the city wall without paying a heavy price.

Before the armies of both sides take action, it is natural that the war machinery must be consumed first.

The Falcon Principality is well prepared this time, and of course it is impossible to fill this hole with military units.

In a city defense battle, the defensive side has too much advantage. If they really want to use troops to fill the hole, then at least most of their legions must fill the hole to have any chance of breaking through.

Catapults arrived one kilometer away from the city wall, and the coalition forces formed a half-moon formation centered on it.

Note that these are 'catapults', not 'trebuchets', there is a huge difference.

The trebuchet sacrifices most of its attributes and retains its mobility, while the trebuchet is extremely bulky, but its attack range and attack power completely crush the trebuchet.

These hundreds of catapults are heroic war machines and are extremely easy to carry.

Asking for directions!

Needless to say, it goes without saying that these hundreds of catapults are used to test the defense of the Nest of Flesh.

The real siege weapons are not the small catapults carried by these heroes.

A few kilometers away behind the army, a convoy was unloading the upper parts, and a large number of craftsmen were busy.

Trebuchet!

These behemoths being assembled are the real siege aces.

With a range of several kilometers, it crushed the catapult carried by the hero.

However, after considering the portability, I have to admit that this is a kind of balance.

It takes less than half a day to assemble a large trebuchet, which is considered fast. If there weren't a large number of craftsmen, it wouldn't be surprising if it took more than a day.

The coalition forces blocked the front of the Flesh Nest to prevent the other side from coming out and destroying the assembled trebuchet.

Zhao Hao, who understood the siege tactics, was not in a hurry to let the Storm Legion perform, but continued to kill the cannon fodder undead on the edge of the coalition forces, and the Seventh Legion also followed.

Not to mention the players, who have a tacit agreement to use the two legions as the core to crazily destroy the surrounding undead.

The undead in the Sea of ​​the Undead are numerous in number but weak in strength!

It directly makes the players go crazy. They come to the battlefield not for justice, but for contribution and experience. Now is the time to gain a lot.

after a while.

Boom, boom!

The golden dragon transformed by Zhao Hao landed on the ground.

The loss is pitifully small!

With the blessing of Memphira, only about three digits of Silver Pegasus were consumed to death, which was completely worthless compared to the harvest.

I don't want to continue because of my physical strength.

Although the dragon's endurance is not low, the combat state is different from ordinary flying, which consumes a lot of energy. Over a period of time, most of the energy is consumed.

Dinner is next, and of course you need to regain your strength first to cope with it.

"grown ups!"

After finishing the ultimate transformation and returning to the back of the crystal dragon, Memphela said hello.

"Well, you don't have to worry about losses in this siege!"

Zhao Hao gave instructions.

Because no matter how much they lose, as long as they produce enough value, the Falcon Principality will foot the bill.

The reason is very simple, that is, this counterattack is of great significance to it.

If it fails, the southeast region will completely turn into the Land of the Dead, which will be continuously eroded by Diya in the future, and may even perish.

When the army was halfway through, he received a clear instruction from his 'big brother' that all the expenses would be paid by Zhao... No, all battle losses would be paid for by the Falcon Principality.

Now he is eager to lose more. As long as he doesn't show off, he will definitely die as many as possible.

It would be even better if the player's death could also be regarded as the sacrifice of the Storm Legion.

"Um!"

Meng Feila nodded slightly, and she also understood the hint in Zhao Hao's words, that is, don't be stingy with losses if you have reasonable opportunities.

The Storm Legion suddenly stopped, leaving players who were enjoying the killing to complain.

However, Zhao Hao will not change the order because of this, after all, he is not here to be a nanny for these players.

At this time, the battle between the war machines of both sides became more intense.

Although there are many heroes under the command of Filial Son Sword, the war machinery carried by heroes such as catapults can only be used by siege fighters by default, and they cannot be used by defenders.

Therefore, the small trebuchets on the city walls are all manufactured.

Hoo, ho!

A large number of stone bullets drew an arc in the sky and fell towards the area where the siege team's catapults were.

As we all know, the accuracy of the trebuchet is completely dependent on the hood.

If it were a city wall, it would be difficult to miss such a large target, but it would be a bit difficult to accurately hit a small catapult that is not much larger than a carriage.

It's all about quantity over luck.

The most important thing is that the attack speed of stone throwing is extremely slow, and one shot every few minutes is considered good.

However, corresponding to the attack speed, is the terrifying attack power.

Hundreds of kilograms of stone bullets, under the action of weight and inertia, are completely beyond the ability of flesh and blood to resist.

Occasionally, you can see stone bullets hitting soldiers and smashing them into pulp.

In terms of quantity, Xiaozijian had the overwhelming advantage, with thousands of trebuchets almost crowding the city wall.

Here comes the problem!

How did the opponent get so many trebuchets?

It is recognized that the undead are not good at war machinery.

Because the Land of the Dead doesn't have much wood at all, and it's not good at forging metal. It doesn't even have materials, so how can it be good at manufacturing.

Therefore, Erwuzi must have sold it to the other party.

But if you know it, you know it, but no one will pursue it.

Because all major forces cooperate with the undead, but the degree of cooperation varies.

Even though the Templar Church is the evil nemesis, it doesn't mean there are no problems.

At least a few of the strong men among the undead defected from the Holy Church. If the intelligence had not been blocked well, the Holy Church might have long been known as the "Training Class for the Strong Undead".

Trebuchets damage each other against each other.

But time is on the side of the coalition forces, because those large trebuchets are slowly being assembled.

Once these war machines with a range of several kilometers and several tons of heavy stone bullets are added as weapons, fire suppression can be achieved.

The defenders were limited by the width of the city wall and could not use large trebuchets.

Therefore, the opponent will definitely find a way to destroy the large trebuchet, and this is also their opportunity.

Opportunity to severely damage the defending unit.

Now, the opportunity has come.
Chapter completed!
