King’s Kingdom
Chapter 196: The behemoth appears
"The King's Kingdom (
The decrease in the number of casualties on both sides is mainly due to the potato chip monsters. In fact, the defenders in the city have not yet suffered casualties. The enemy has paid more than 30,000 monsters for casualties, and still no monsters have touched the edge of the battlements. .
Not being able to climb the battlements naturally meant that they could not cause damage to the warriors. With the poor arrows with little power, they could not break the warriors' armor at all, and could only play a piece of music.
The arrows shot by the Ultra people are indeed a lot stronger, but they can’t break the protective layer of the iron armor, and they can shoot some pits and pits from the outermost armor, and some arrows with higher strength and better angles can be shot. Ya can break the tie armor, but he can't do anything about the chain armor inside.
What's more, on the inside of the chain armor, there is a leather vest and a set of armed clothes. It is almost whimsical to want to kill the Lan Yin army with bows and arrows.
Theodosius looked at the monsters that kept shooting below, and the corners of his mouth evoked a smile that could not be concealed.
At this point in the battle, including him, most of the soldiers were no longer nervous, because the attack of the monsters was too weak.
Not to mention the rushing vehicles that attack the city gates, and there are no siege vehicles necessary for attacking the city walls. If there are no engineering vehicles, at least there must be well-made long ladders, right? As a result, their long ladders are also shoddy, and they are not equipped with key components.
Apart from a sufficient number, it is useless, but what is the use of dense monsters and long ladders under the city? You can't even touch the edge of the battlements, let alone siege the city.
The warriors sticking out were also seen by Theodosius. Their heroic performance was inseparable from the thick and sophisticated armor on their bodies.
Why did he equip his soldiers with such powerful armor? Isn't that what saves lives in this situation?
He saw with his own eyes that a soldier with more than a dozen arrows stuck in his body still supported the long ladder motionless, preventing the monsters on it from climbing up the city wall.
This kind of effect that he can still fight like a hedgehog is what he wants. Unarmored units and heavy armored units are really two concepts. It is true that a soldier in heavy armor can stand up to ten unarmored soldiers.
The archers rested, and the shooting frequency decreased a lot, but the giant crossbow and the trebuchet did not rest. The giant crossbow has a winch to assist, and it does not require much physical strength to load. The same is true for the trebuchet. Rotation can be carried out, there is no need to stop and rest at all.
It can be said that these trebuchets can keep firing as long as they don't fall apart.
The effect of the crossbow gun fired by the giant crossbow is amazing. The enemies in the distance are shot through the body in twos and threes, and the catapult is similar. Although the formation of the enemy is loose, the bouncing stones can still cause damage, which is more than the attack will occasionally fail. The giant crossbow works just fine.
But the most brilliant results were actually the infantrymen who didn't use bows and arrows and didn't operate trebuchets and giant crossbows. They only needed to throw the stones in their hands outside the city wall to cause damage to the enemy.
Although the monsters have always adopted a loose formation, it is difficult to maintain it under the city wall. Even if they consciously do not gather together, the monsters who are still charging behind will crowd them together.
This prevented every attack of the soldiers from being in vain. Theodosius occasionally stuck his head out and looked down, a feeling of emptiness and loss came to his heart.
At this time, if there is a Greek fire, an incendiary bomb, a grenade explosive pack, one can be reimbursed for one or two hundred, but unfortunately he does not have any of these large-scale lethal weapons, even if he gives him some gasoline, he will Can kill all the enemies below.
He had forgotten that the walls of Ikopish were made of wood...
Even if the giant wood has excellent fire resistance, China still can't change its wooden structure, can it?
In this stalemate, more than 20 minutes have passed. This time, the casualties of the enemy in the siege have reached more than 40,000. In addition to the previous siege, more than 70,000 monsters were buried here.
Just when all the fighters felt that they could hold on like this and end the battle until dawn, they heard a roar from all directions.
"The sound of hooves? There are also cavalry on horses among the monsters?" Theodosius made a guess immediately.
But soon he rejected his conjecture, because no creatures other than humans can use horses to fight, even the cavalry of the Otts can only ride wolves or corrupted horses.
The cost of the creation of the Light God with obvious pedigrees like a corrupt horse is not small, and it is obviously not what the monster army in front of him can have.
"What is it?" He looked into the distance, puzzled.
"Bull!" Theodosius looked at the giant creatures running, and saw at a glance what they were.
The wild bull has left a deep impression on Theodosius. Its huge body and powerful strength are almost unsurpassable among monsters~www.readwn.com~ Even he has tried to see if he can do it before. Tame this creature and act as a helper in ploughing the fields, just like Sharma in his previous life.
However, it is a pity that no matter what method was tried, this behemoth would not give in. In the end, Theodosius could only order someone to kill it, dispelling the idea of taming the bull.
"But what role can bulls play in siege warfare?" Theodosius pondered the other party's thoughts in his heart.
Bulls have only four hooves, no upper limbs that can be used for climbing, and they still land on all fours, which logically cannot be used in siege warfare.
Hit the wall?
That's even more impossible. How stupid is it to think of this kind of cerebral palsy method. Bulls are indeed strong, and few creatures except giant dragons can match them.
But no matter how strong it is, there is an upper limit. Can this giant wooden city wall, which is as high as 12 meters and 6 meters thick, can be knocked down by these four or five meters in length?
"Wait..." Theodosius' expression gradually became serious. He saw the powerful species riding on the backs of the bulls, and a bad feeling gradually rose in his heart.
"You won't use them to fix the long ladder, will you?" Theodosius looked at the long ladder, which was held in mid-air and could not touch the city wall. The ominous prophecy in his heart became stronger and stronger.
The soldiers who operate the giant crossbow are not fools, and they shifted their target to these behemoths at the first time.
One or two hundred crossbow guns were fired, because the distance was too far, so the hit rate was not ideal, only forty or fifty hit the target.
Although the bull has rough skin and thick flesh and a huge body, it is still flesh and blood. There is still no room for resistance in the face of a powerful crossbow gun. As long as it is hit by the torso, it can only whine and fall to the ground and kick its legs.
