Valon: Even a supporting character can change his fate.
Chapter 648: Attack the City Again
Unlike the inexperienced Thorn last time, the army this time is led by an experienced general who has been through many battles and has absolutely no problem with experience.
But this veteran with many military achievements also has a flaw, which is that he thinks too highly of himself. Especially after winning battles in succession, he gradually became arrogant and thought that the undead were just so-so and Thorn was just a fool.
In this way, the army led by the old general won victory after victory and soon reached the core area of the undead.
When the old general saw Thorn tied to the top of the city wall, breathing out more than breathing in, he was furious.
Thorn was a member of the royal family after all. He could call the other party a pig or a fool, but he could not be humiliated by a mere undead.
However, Thorne's current situation is also beneficial to the battle situation.
The enemy was obviously about to die, so the kingdom's army no longer had to worry about the enemy using Thorn to threaten to retreat when the siege was about to succeed.
Even if the other party did so, the old general would not give up, but the other party was a member of the royal family after all. If he really didn't give him any face, he would inevitably be harassed by those brainless idiots when he returned.
But now, all problems are solved.
Let the accompanying troops rest for an hour and assemble various siege facilities during this period.
The undead were not stupid either and did not sit there and wait for death. As soon as the other party appeared in the first town, the lich quickly returned here.
Now that we see the other party building siege facilities, we naturally won’t sit back and watch them complete it.
During this period, many skeleton soldiers and zombies were sent to carry out the attack, but unfortunately the effects were not obvious. The kingdom's army had long anticipated that the other side would come to destroy these facilities, so they deliberately gathered troops for protection.
It wasn't until the Blood Abomination took action that the two catapults were destroyed.
But for many siege facilities, the lack of two catapults is not a problem.
When all the siege equipment was assembled, there was a wave of stone throwing attacks. Although the undead side actively fought back, a gap was eventually smashed into the city wall.
Seeing the gap being created, the old general ordered an attack on the city.
A large number of soldiers rushed up. In addition to those carrying weapons, some were carrying ladders and pushing siege vehicles.
There was only a gap in the city wall, and the space was not very large.
It is indeed possible to use the catapult to further expand the hole, or create more holes, but doing so will take a very long time.
It is afternoon now. If we wait until night, it will be the world of the undead, and the vision of human soldiers will be affected to a certain extent.
Besides, slingshot requires stones, and not all stones can be used for throwing. A lot of the stones they brought had been consumed in the previous siege, and they didn't have much left.
The battle for the top of the city was very fierce. Many soldiers were knocked down by rolling logs and falling rocks before they could even climb halfway. Even those who made it to the top of the city soon died under the siege of the undead.
It was as if he didn't see these old generals.
Come to think of it, in a siege, without the use of siege facilities such as catapults, the defenders still have a great advantage.
But this will all be over soon.
The siege vehicle, carrying a rain of arrows, has approached the enemy's city gate. Once the gate is knocked open, the soldiers will rush in and the battle will be over soon.
Even though the rain of arrows from above was very dense, the siege vehicle finally arrived under the city gate. However, before the heavy battering ram could hit it, the gate slowly opened from the inside.
Just when the soldiers pushing the siege vehicle were confused, a large number of armored skeleton soldiers rushed out from it and started hacking at them.
Many soldiers were unable to react in time and were killed by the skeleton soldiers who rushed out before they could even draw their swords.
These skeleton soldiers who rushed out did not stop at all after killing the soldiers pushing the carts, and launched an attack on the soldiers following behind.
As the door opened wider, a blood abomination staggered out from inside. Its target was very clear. It held a big hammer in its hand and launched a burst of attacks at the siege vehicle in front of it.
The soldiers at the back were stopped by the skeleton soldiers at the front and could only watch as the siege vehicle was smashed to pieces by the blood abominations.
After smashing the siege vehicle, the Bloody Abomination had no intention of stopping. He rushed out waving the hammer in his hand. Along the way, no matter whether it was a skeleton soldier or a human soldier, anyone who dared to stop him would be knocked away.
When the Blood Abomination rushed into the human army, it swung the hammer in its hand and started smashing around, not only killing the soldiers who couldn't dodge, but also because of its huge body and powerful attack, for a moment no soldier dared to attack it.
"Shoot! Shoot!"
The advantage that was hard-won must not be destroyed by a blood abomination, so the old general directly ordered archery.
Arrows rained down on the Blood Abomination like raindrops, and in a blink of an eye, it was covered with dense swarms like a hedgehog.
Even though the Blood Abomination is vulnerable to arrows, this guy has thick skin and flesh. Ordinary arrows hitting his body will at most cause some fleshly pain, but will not hurt him at all.
Seeing that the blood abomination was still attacking, the soldiers sent by the nobles did not dare to go up. The old general had no choice but to send out his elite troops to kill the blood abomination.
After a hard battle, with more than a dozen soldiers sacrificed and thirty seriously injured, the Blood Abomination was successfully killed.
However, what they don't know is that the blood abomination that is killed is the most terrifying.
The bloody abomination's body fell to the ground. Its huge body first shrank into a ball, and then quickly expanded and exploded before the people around it could react.
Those who were close were directly blown away by the impact force of the explosion, and the rest, even if they did not fly away, were covered with minced meat.
The minced meat is highly corrosive and toxic, and will react immediately when it comes into contact with the human body. The blood mist produced after the explosion is also highly toxic to humans.
In an instant, many human soldiers fell down in pain.
There was no time to mourn for the dead soldiers now, as the appearance of the Blood Abomination had already wasted them a lot of time.
Taking advantage of the chaos, the other side had begun to repair the gap opened by the catapult and push down the ladder.
They must attack as soon as possible, otherwise all their efforts will be in vain.
However, the appearance of the Blood Abomination dealt a heavy blow to the morale. Even if the soldiers rallied, their morale was no longer as high as at the beginning.
Just when the soldiers focused all their attention on siege, something strange happened again.
A group of tall and strong jungle trolls rushed out of the woods and attacked the left flank of the human army.
The sudden attack caught them off guard, and just as they were organizing their men to counterattack the group of jungle trolls, their right flank was also attacked by seven or eight ogres.
