Chapter 507: Siege of the Undead (reward plus more)
Chapter 507 Undead Siege
Although the Stone Demon is powerful, the surface psionic defense will still be knocked down when hit by thousands of enchanted bullets.
And there were many extraordinary people in the fortress, even legendary powerhouses, especially the two legendary army commanders, killed two stone demons in a blink of an eye.
At the same time, on the city wall of the fortress, the enchanted cannon whose muzzle was facing outside was also turned around, aiming at the stone devil inside the fortress.
The target of the stone devil is very large, and the movement is not fast. Even the cannon is relatively easy to aim, especially in the fortress of the Eastern Barrier. Almost every artillery position has an extraordinary person who uses mental power to lock the target to assist in aiming. The hit rate of the cannon was greatly increased.
"The infantry retreats, prepare to shell!"
A loud voice came through the amplification magic, and the soldiers fighting below immediately retreated neatly. Immediately, the sound of "BoomBoomBoom" came in a row, and more than 30 enchanted cannons were divided into five groups. , the artillery fire poured down, locking the five stone devils.
However, at the same time as the sound of the cannon, the locked stone devils shrank their heads into balls, and were hit by the first cannonball and rolled to the side, avoiding most of the artillery fire. Even so, the power of the cannon is undoubtedly displayed. The powerful enchanted armor-piercing bullets splashed the soil and rocks hit by the stone devils. One of the stone devils took a step slowly and was directly hit by the cannonball on the torso. It can be completely extinguished after being turned on and off twice, and with a bang, it collapses directly.
"Jie Jie Jie It's useless, my king's army has arrived, human beings, your eastern barriers will be broken again!" The voice of the broken gong just now came again, and a translucent figure appeared in a stone on top of the devil's head.
"Jie Jie Jie I can already smell killing and blood!" Another translucent figure appeared.
"Kill it! For the great king!" The translucent figures screamed wildly. At the same time, outside the fortress wall, a thicker and thicker black line appeared on the horizon in the distance. Exhausted undead creatures, densely packed, no less than one million!
"Quick! It's the army of the King of Ghosts, sound the red alarm!" On the highest observation deck of the fortress, the soldier who saw this scene shouted tremblingly, and hurriedly pressed the red button one meter away.
In an instant, an alarm that was more piercing and harsher than the alarm of the Stone Demon raid just now rang through the entire eastern barrier.
On the other side of the fortress of the Eastern Bulwark, the spider queen's undead army had already made an appointment with the King of Ghosts outside, and launched an attack on the Eastern Bulwark at almost the same time.
Ten minutes later, the undead army commanded by the King of Ghosts rushed under the city wall of the fortress, without stopping at all, just like a tide, it hit directly. Among the undead troops, the lowest-level skeleton soldiers and zombies rushed to the front. Many of them were huge in size but had low combat effectiveness. After rushing up, they were stacked under the city wall, forming a huge steep slope, allowing the skeleton soldiers and zombies behind them. Climb up, layer by layer, and stack up until the height below the fortress wall is filled. This is also the routine of the undead army to attack the city.
At this time, in the interior of the fortress, the number of stone devils that broke in was still increasing, and they continued to fall from the air like meteorites, causing more casualties.
These golems are controlled by ghost mages in an attempt to cause greater chaos for the human army.
But the human legion in the Eastern Fortress did not panic. These more than 100,000 people are the most elite troops in the entire human kingdom. They are guarding the Eastern Fortress to guard against the enemies of the undead kingdom all the time. And now the undead army is only to be expected, and even many soldiers are not afraid or shrinking, but are eager to try and fight!
"Aim at each artillery position! Don't panic, follow the code, listen to the command... let it go!" The artillery commander on the city wall shouted expressionlessly, pulling his neck.
"Boom! Boom!" The cannonballs were fired in layers and in an orderly manner. After the initial tension and fear, the soldiers on the city wall had recovered, ignoring the surging undead outside, and meticulously stuffing the cannonballs into the barrels.
Suddenly there was a sound of breaking in the air, and densely packed giant bats swooped down through the clouds. These bat zombies, which were spawned by undead magic, were extremely huge. The bat wings stretched more than two meters, and their hind paws were holding kobold zombies or dwarf skeletons. Small in size, flexible in movement, and powerful in attack, the undead troop dives down from the air like a bomber and throws the captured undead.
In an instant, thousands of huddled zombies or skeleton soldiers rained down, and only one tenth of them fell on the city wall, causing huge losses to the artillery of the fortress.
"Mage Corps, Magic Shield!" A major general was in charge of commanding the battle over the city. As those bats appeared, he immediately ordered the Mage Corps, followed by a near-uniform sound of chanting spells. These mage groups trained by the military are different from ordinary magicians. They often only refine a few magics. For special war scenarios, the magic power must be enough to ensure the endurance of the battlefield. Although individual combat is weak, it is absolutely necessary to join forces. An enemy's nightmare.
In the next moment, a light blue magical barrier appeared on the wall of the fortress.
The ordinary magic shield, the joint spellcasting of the mage group, turned into a large magic barrier.
"Against the air, fire a volley of rifles!" The major general shouted again through the amplification magic.
With a sound of , more than 10,000 infantrymen pulled the bolts, knelt down on one knee, raised their heads and raised their guns.
The infantry was divided into three rows and deployed at the back of the city wall. At the front was a colonel commander with a beard. He drew his sword, raised it to the top of his head, and shouted: "Let it go!"
With a bang, tens of thousands of enchanted rifles pulled the trigger together, and the sound overwhelmed the cannon in front of it in an instant! Immediately, he quickly pulled the gun and loaded the bullet, and the well-trained tens of thousands of people were almost uniform. The colonel followed the tactical code, shouted the name of the action step by step, and then shouted: "Let's go!"
The undead thrown from the sky were either blasted up in the air, or fell on the magic barrier and ejected outside the city wall, which did not affect the artillery that poured shells on the undead army...
Through hundreds of crows, far or near, Green was watching this sudden war.
As early as the outbreak of the war, he got the news, and traveled directly through the spiritual world to the vicinity of the Eastern Wall and released the crows to the periphery of the battlefield.
Although Greene has participated in wars of tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people before, it is the first time he has witnessed a war of this scale with millions of combat units pouring into the battlefield.
That kind of shocking scene, especially the city wall where the army of millions of undead rushed to the eastern fortress like a tide, that kind of impact can still feel the unparalleled impact even from the crow's perspective.
The so-called crowd tactics, and only this scale is qualified to be called [human sea]!
Moreover, it was the first time that Green saw the undead's multi-arms fighting together, directly air-dropping stone demons and bomber-like mutant bat formations at the rear of the enemy. On the frontal battlefield was the paving cannon fodder army, followed by a powerful assault. Arms, in the back are the long-range throwing siege troops, in addition to the undead archers, there are also rotting catapults, which can directly throw the corpse with the corpse explosion into the human fortress, or hit the magic barrier opened by the mage group. , blasting waves of shaking...
There are no less than dozens of undead armies participating in the battle, all kinds of cooperation and various tactics, which makes Green dazzled. Compared with the undead army that once made Green complacent, both in terms of numbers and various tactical cooperation are very immature. , If the high-level arms and heroes are excluded, the two sides will conduct a fair contest. Green carefully considers it, and the odds of winning are still small.
And through this war, Green also discovered a misunderstanding before him.
Because he has the advantage of the cemetery from the beginning, the undead he obtained is much stronger than other necromancers, and it is unnatural that he has formed the prejudice that "the soldiers are more expensive than the elite", but this is precisely contrary to the The original intention of the Necromancer, coupled with the limitation of the number of people in the cemetery itself, and the outstanding achievements of the elite undead army in the previous battles so far made him ignore the expansion of the undead army.
But this time, seeing the army of millions of undead attacking the city, Green suddenly realized that he was a little too petty.
If it is now that he is facing an army of millions of undead, in the case that both the legendary and natural disaster-level powerhouses are restrained by the enemy powerhouse, only his elite undead army of about ten thousand people, plus the fog Can the world's 50,000-60,000 servant army really resist the army of millions of undead?
And this is just a ghost king under the command of Princess Mulesina. In addition, there are several undead lords that Princess Mulesina can dispatch. The total number of undead armies with combat effectiveness in the entire undead kingdom is probably more than 500. Ten thousand!
Green couldn't help but fall into contemplation. Next, he must find a balance between the quantity and quality of the undead troops, but in any case, the number must be expanded, but how to expand and where to start must be carefully considered.
At this time, the undead army siege has entered the next stage. The undead army flocking to the fortress wall has filled a frontal **** more than ten meters wide under the towering city wall. The real elite assault troops in the undead army began to attack. , most of them are undead creatures above the official level, forming an army of nearly 30,000 people, under the cover of long-range troops, they are not afraid of death to launch a charge...
On the human side, they have long been familiar with the undead siege routine. After finding the formation of the slope, the artillery began to move backwards, wearing heavy alchemy armor, it seems that the heavy armored soldiers nearly three meters high slowly boarded Front of the city wall.
