Chapter 58 Artillery Strike
The goblins who escaped had told Skarsnik that Wisenberg's plan had failed a few days earlier.But it never told Crossi that according to the original plan, the Beastmen would enter the city from the underground passage dug with painstaking efforts, and Xie Yue would attack from the outside. With a two-pronged approach, the chances of capturing Nun City are still very high.But now the plan has to be changed. The elite imperial army has not appeared until now, which means that Fort Desolation is also abolished. Skarsnik plans to return to Eight Peaks Mountain with his own legion. As for those beastmen, let them go to hell Bar.

Looking at the long history, there are only a handful of goblins who can successfully climb to the top of the food chain. Obviously, Skarsnik is one of them. His extraordinary cunning and vicious nature are his capital for emerging.To unite all that can be united, to discard all that can be jettisoned, is nothing more than normal for Skarsnik.

------

Zhang Hao arrived at the left side of the goblin army to ambush the day before Skarsnik implemented his plan. He spent a day summoning a full complement of twenty artillery groups.Ten cannon squadrons, one squadron of four guns, forty guns.There are also ten teams of Hellstorm Cannons. These ten teams of Katyusha from the Warhammer World are not very accurate, but there are too many factors that determine victory on the battlefield. The Hellstorm Cannons with both visual and sound effects are the best tool for lowering morale. , besides, facing four full strength (the empire's normal team is 120 and 90 people, the orcs are 160 to 200) and nearly seven or eight thousand goblin orcs, as long as they don't fire at their backs, I believe the effect should be adequate. .

According to the slaves in the Wessenburg cage, Xiao Suya's mother had been taken away long ago, and Zhang Hao had been observing carefully during the time he was hiding, but he did not find the place where the slaves were held.

"Since this is the case, there is nothing to worry about, everyone! Let these goblins feel the wrath of the empire!" Zhang Hao rode a horse and walked up to a hill with a horn, followed by Croz and Lilith, and The gryphon knights were hiding in the forest next to the artillery position that had just been established.

"Wooooow~" The low and slow sound of the horn slowly radiated from Zhang Hao's position to the entire goblin camp and Nuen City.The first to react was the defenders of Nun City, and various cheers came and went on the city wall.

In the direction of Feidorf in Wissen Province, it seemed to be responding to Zhang Hao's horn, and there were bursts of horns not far behind Skarsnik, and Tok led the elite of the Imperial Army to the goblin barracks. behind, and not far away.

The giant cannon that fired first, the head-sized steel shells flew into the dark night sky with gunpowder smoke and loud noise, and the target was the most conspicuous giant spider in the camp.

"Boom! Boom~" This sudden shell with its extraordinary armor-piercing ability instantly seriously injured the giant spider, like a panicked mouse running around in the camp with its strong physical fitness, making its final struggle.

Following the steel cannonballs are the overwhelming explosions and flames of the Hellstorm Cannon. The giant cannon is a single-point armor-piercing attack. The explosion range is not large, and the damage to huge creatures is super high. The effect of hitting dense crowds is also quite significant.The Hellstorm Cannon is a large-scale coverage attack. The explosion effect is obvious. One point at a time, the casualties of Xie Yue's troops, which are still full of low-level units, are instantly doubled and their morale plummets.

After several rounds of blows, the entire camp was terrible. The giant spider who accompanied Skarsnik in the South and North Wars and made great achievements died very aggrieved in the artillery fire of the empire. If it wasn't killed by the bomb, Skarsnik wouldn't let it go. Its rampage in the nest caused confusion among the goblin troops preparing to form a defensive lineup. Many goblins died directly under the giant spider's feet and belly.After recovering now, Skarsnik immediately dispatched his jumpers to launch a counter-charge against the artillery positions of the empire, and at the same time sacrificed his evil moon battle flag to forcibly gather the troops. As for where did so many artillery come from, it has no time to think.

Skarsnik's jumping troops are composed of little monster Squigs. They are Skarsnik's only mobile unit. Ten teams of jumping troops were ravaged by artillery fire, and only five or six teams were left. They jumped in the direction of the artillery. Rushing away, the speed is not slow.

In the artillery position, Zhang Hao is naturally not afraid of any troops sent by Skarsnik to harass them. After receiving the order, the Griffin Riders lined up and rushed out of the forest. Little monsters, the result was exactly what Zhang Hao thought. These little monsters barely warmed up the knights.The artillery behind Zhang Hao was still firing in an orderly manner. In such an area, firing from a slightly different angle from time to time did not require the gunners to think.

When the bombing was going on outside, a fierce battle broke out in Nun City. Under the sound of artillery, Zhang Hao also vaguely heard the shouts of killing in the city. Zhang Hao secretly yelled that it was not good, and finally figured out that Skarsnik had been besieging the city for so long. That’s why they didn’t shoot. It turns out that this guy has been digging holes. I don’t know how many people went in. It seems that it’s time to hurry up. Zhang Hao took out his command pistol and fired a shot into the sky. Yellow smoke appeared in the sky. Although it was covered by night, Tok still saw the signal and began to lead the army to narrow the encirclement.

The soldiers of the empire lined up in a battle formation and started to march towards the goblin camp with neat steps, while the long-range troops moved forward quickly, and began to attack when they reached the furthest distance. I don't know if it was because of equipment or talent, the entire orcs and goblins The tribes didn't have any reliable long-range infantry. Facing the special care of crossbowmen and musketeers, they collapsed after a few rounds.When the signal flares of Tok and Benny also lifted off, the artillery fire of the empire stopped, and Zhang Hao led the Griffon Knights to charge.

After breaking into the camp, Zhang Hao felt a little emotional. The morale of these goblins was so high. They didn't even scatter after being hit with so many shells. It would be impossible for humans to persist.The knights were still fighting their way towards the center as if they were in no-man's land. There was no decent resistance at the periphery.

Relying on the incomparable lethality of the Griffin Knights, Zhang Hao got the green light all the way, and Tok and Beanie were forced. The first thing the soldiers encountered was a group of tauren charging desperately, and the long-range troops patronized to suppress the goblin shooter and The Horn-grabbing Raiders made this group of troops mixed with night goblins fight together with the soldiers of the empire. The beastmen, relying on their innate physical advantages and the poisoned night goblins, were even on par with the human troops. This made Tok and Benny a little embarrassed. Their immature command and battlefield response made them fall into the counterattack of goblins and beastmen, which was a bit bigger than the original idea of ​​destroying everything.

Of course, what they don't know is that the effect of Skarsnik's Evil Moon Battle Banner is the reason why the low-morale goblins are so brave, and it is also Skarsnik's real trump card for daring to run so unscrupulously in the empire's territory. Month: The goblin troops within the range will never retreat.

　Happy Mid-Autumn Festival, the poor author is on duty twenty hours today.
