Chapter 155: consecutive blows
"This...it's impossible!" General Sidorius was already in disbelief. The shadow infantry soldiers he led on to the battlefield managed to hold on to the present, but under this wave of arrows, there were almost not many left.
The shadow infantrymen themselves do not carry shields, and the armor on their bodies is also the adult infantry armor of the empire, which means that they are not outstanding in terms of defense, and it is not easy to survive so many arrows. .
With such a rain of arrows, how could this be a small town erupting? That kind of big city at the heart of the kingdom is nothing more than that, right?
After all, archers are only an important arm of defending the city, not all of them. Shooting so many sharp arrows one after another must be a rotation shot. How can this small town be able to do it?
"Damn, don't fight for now. Hurry up and take care of it, otherwise few will survive." General Kryon on the side also growled angrily. He is the best at saving people with medical care. .
He knew that with the current situation, if he continued to fight, it would not be impossible for the entire army to be wiped out!
General Agathon looked up and looked at the high city wall with a gloomy expression, and finally agreed to the retreat requests of many lords.
"How is this possible, a small town, why are there so many archers." The lord on the side said angrily, although they were not the core positions like General Sidorius and General Kryon, but still The casualties were horrendous!
"You can't fight like this," said another lord.
"I propose that we shoot at them, after all, there is only one town!" At this time, a lord also frowned.
General Kryon on one side also had a sullen face. Although he was ruthless, he was also very caring for the soldiers under his command. Under his men, the casualties were always the lowest.
"I agree with the decision, we have several times the number of Butte Township, and there are probably more archers than their soldiers.
But we used the siege method with the least efficiency and the most casualties. There is no doubt that this is a stupid act! "General Kryon said with a serious face, and many lords nodded secretly.
They didn't have the same thoughts as General Kryon, but they also understood that the soldiers were too damaged and affected them too much.
"Okay," General Agathon nodded, finally agreeing with the opinions of many lords.
So in the next period of time, the two sides began to shoot each other, but the small town of Bute was condescending, and with its height advantage, the distance between the arrows shot and the crossbow arrows had a huge advantage.
And the archers from the empire, either the output distance is insufficient, or they have to take great risks to shoot under the arrow rain in the town of Bute.
"Which idiot came up with this method!" Archon Levius shouted angrily. His Shadow infantry casualties were particularly staggering, but what made him even more indignant was that such staggering casualties did not seem to get the answer. Some results.
The consul was very angry, with a look of choosing someone to devour, General Agathon couldn't help but feel a little flustered. In terms of status, the Livius consul was even higher than him.
"Let the soldiers with shields raise their shields to attack." The lord on the side said in a deep voice.
So a large number of imperial soldiers put their shields on their heads again, carrying the rain of arrows abruptly, and pushing the huge siege vehicles towards the front.
Some soldiers exclaimed that the arrow rain in the sky would not avoid them because of this, and even the top of the siege vehicle was smashed by the arrow rain, making the entire siege vehicle look crumbling.
Although many soldiers can hide under siege vehicles, they are not absolutely safe.
But anyway, the situation is much better than before, but...
"Hysteresis spell!" Along with a burst of cold drinks from the sky, several arrow towers in the four states of the city wall suddenly lit up.
The round cusp above the minaret is covered with a layer of gray-black luster, and the dark horror is gloomy and cold, making people feel a little awkward.
But the next moment, a gray light and shadow appeared in a section of land under the city wall, and the next moment, many soldiers changed their colors.
Because they feel that it is difficult for them to move forward, and it takes a huge amount of strength to take a step, just like in the sea, there is a huge resistance and it is impossible to rush.
How is this going? How can it be so evil?
"It's a spell? Sure enough, as rumored, there is a rumored magician in this marquis!" General Agathon's expression changed, and Levius was also full of disbelief when he was in power.
They don't find it so difficult to accept the existence of these things, but they can't accept it. A mere marquis can have all of this!
The previous snake worship religion, but only in a few battles, will there be these shadows. The terrifying snake **** Azdahaka is also very stingy with these gifts.
Why is there such a terrible thing in a small town in this district, or a small town in the marquis?
"Come on! Fighting qi is burning, you can't let the people of the Lion Realm Kingdom see jokes!" Another anger shouted, and a lord shouted.
For this kind of thing, the Empire is somewhat prepared after all, the fighting qi burns, and the fighting qi protects the body in a short period of time enough to repel a lot of not very powerful magic.
At this time, General Agathon was also nervous. Fortunately, it still seemed to be useful. After all, the spells transformed by the magic tower were the lowest level, and were very different from the elements of the mages themselves.
At this moment, many soldiers seem to be a lot faster, although they are not absolutely immune, but compared to before, there is still a big improvement But there is a cold hum in the air. , "Concentrated acid spell!"
Suddenly, one after another of viscous liquid spilled from the air, which was transparent like water, but when it really fell, there were bursts of painful exclamations, and... screeching terrifying sounds,
Concentrated acid corrodes everything without any suspense, and a soldier is screaming, even with their sophisticated armor, they can't stop the corrosion of this concentrated acid!
Everyone couldn't believe why this liquid was so terrifying. Some people screamed and saw that their arms had already exposed the bones. Under the city wall at this time, there was no doubt that there was purgatory on earth.
"No!" There was another scream, and the siege vehicle had begun to collapse with some cracks. Obviously, some important parts were eroded.
And this has made countless soldiers panic, not to mention the weight of the siege vehicle, the key is that for the vast majority of soldiers, the barrier to defend against the rain of arrows has been lost!
For a time, the morale of the imperial army fell to the extreme.
