Qin Emperor

After all, it was discovered a little late. When the archer's arrow was shot and blocked by the opponent's shield, circles of bloody ripples had already erupted in Foluo's forward army.

All the Flor warriors shrouded in blood and light suddenly had their muscles swelled, their eyes filled with blood and light, and they rushed towards the city at a faster speed than before.

Bloodthirst is exactly the bloodthirst of the blood mage.

Among magicians, blood mages are an alternative existence. For magicians from other departments, blood mages' individual combat abilities are not strong. They don't even have any outstanding attack magic. However, blood mages appear in wars. , but it is more effective than any magician with other attributes. Their bloodthirsty skills can add bloodthirsty effects to warriors over a wide range.

Once enveloped by the bloodthirsty effect, the combat effectiveness of the warriors can be instantly increased by one and a half times, and at the same time they will lose their sense of pain and become fearless of death. In other words, a warrior under the bloodthirsty effect of a blood mage will immediately become a dead warrior. Of course, this also has disadvantages. When the bloodthirsty effect disappears, the warrior's vitality will be greatly reduced. A bloodthirsty attack will shorten the life span by at least three years.

Under the full force of more than a dozen blood mages, the thousands of Foro warriors charging at the front suddenly entered a bloodthirsty state and rushed towards Sfort City at a faster speed. At the same time, those Florian landfillers also quickly transported sandbags towards the moat.

Ming, those blood mages have been solved. Ye Yinzhu shouted in a deep voice. He knew that if these blood mages were allowed to perform freely. Then, what our side will face will all be Death Soldier level impacts.

At the same time, Ancelotti also gave the order to attack. In an instant, the ballistas and catapults fired simultaneously, and the sound of their machinations spread throughout the city.

The eyes merge into one. With a click, a bolt of lightning shot out from Ming's single eye. The shield in front of Xue Fa's body was shattered. The next moment, the mage had turned into charcoal.

The mountain giant's natural ability, Thunder Strike, was not something that these fragile mages could contend with. After receiving Ye Yinzhu's order, Ming quickly killed more than ten times and easily eliminated the blood mages in the enemy's battle formation. . The release of his one-eyed thunder immediately caused the surrounding Eastern Legion to turn their attention. It's just that no one has the intention to ask about the secret at this time.

While Ming was dealing with these dozen blood mages, the thousands of bloodthirsty Foro soldiers at the front had already rushed to the moat.

The power of heavy crossbows and catapults is absolutely terrifying. Although the speed and strength of these bloodthirsty soldiers have been greatly improved, before they can swim across the moat, they are immediately hit by a hail of arrows and huge rocks. Complete destruction.

Ye Yinzhu shouted: Stop the catapult attack.

The archer continued. All magicians are prepared to respond.

The losses during the siege were undoubtedly huge, but the Foro people seemed to have no idea what life and death were, and launched rounds of charges. Aerial ladders were placed directly on both sides of the moat, and a large number of landfillers braved the rain of arrows. Transport sand and gravel forward. When one group of landfillers dies, another group will rush up immediately and continue to push forward the bags of sand and gravel they dropped on the ground.

Blood and corpses were scattered in large quantities in front of Sfort City, and this cruel war finally began.

Under the city, the siege equipment continued to move forward. Forro's side erected dozens of arrow towers in front of the city and fired at the head of Sfort City. Unfortunately, these archery towers cannot be equipped with heavy crossbows. No matter the range or lethality, it is far from comparable to the defense of the city.

At this time, although it was difficult for the Florians to cross the moat and pose a real threat to Sfort City, the Milanese in the city knew it. This is just the beginning, the real hard battle is yet to come. The moat in front of the city is being filled with bags of sand and gravel. The Foro people's charge also became more rapid.

A large number of shields were erected at the top of the city to resist the arrows fired from the opposite side. Ancelotti eagerly said to the unarmored Ye Yinzhu: My lord, please retreat a little to avoid being injured by the flow.

Ye Yinzhu shook his head. His expression was very calm and he was not moved by the situation below the city. Marshal Ancelotti, please go and supervise the logistics troops of the army. You must ensure the quantity of various supplies in the city.

At least thousands of archers from the Kingdom of Floro were firing volleys below. It was impossible without flowing arrows, but Ancelotti soon discovered that Ye Yinzhu didn't have to worry about the problem of flowing arrows at all. By his side, he didn't know how to use the arrows just now. The big man who induced the thunder and lightning by some means was halfway in front of him. No stray arrows could pass in front of him. Even if there were arrows shot from the side, they were all easily blocked by him raising his hand. The most shocking thing was that this The strong man actually used his own body to block the arrow. The powerful arrow hit him and could only make a muffled sound, but could not cause any harm.

At this time, the 40,000-strong army of Foro's vanguard had completely arrived at the city. At the front were the heavy armored infantry transported to the front line by chariots. Although this type of infantry was slow, its defensive power was extremely amazing. Every infantryman Holding a tower shield taller than their own bodies in their hands, they came to the moat. Every three heavy infantrymen did not know how to put the tower shields together to form a strong defense line. Even a heavy crossbow was very powerful. It is difficult to penetrate their giant shields that are half a foot thick.

Ye Yinzhu looked at the scene below the city coldly. This was a standard siege method for the Florians. He had seen a detailed introduction to this siege method in the military book. The tower shield was in front, and the purpose was not Attack, but to reduce one's own damage as much as possible. Now the target of the Florians is not Sfort City, but the moat under the city. With this tower shield, although it cannot protect the Foro soldiers in the far back row, it can at least reduce the damage by half, or even two-thirds. At the same time, various siege equipment behind Foluo were also advancing rapidly. As long as the moat was filled, it would be the time for the people of Foluo to launch a general attack. In order to be able to enter the city of Sfort and achieve the purpose of supporting war with war, the people of Floro have become reckless and are willing to make all-or-nothing efforts.

Catapult. Ye Yinzhu shouted. The catapult that had previously ceased fire under his order was pulled up again. With a rattling sound, dozens of huge stone bombs fell from the sky and headed towards Falling across the moat.

Screams resounded for a while. Although the tower shield had amazing defense, it was still far behind compared with the huge rocks fired by the catapult. The power of the catapult was perfectly displayed on them, and even some siege equipment that was pushed too fast stopped in front of the catapult.

Although Ancelotti was not a famous commander, he was definitely a famous general. Seeing that the tower shield wall was smashed to pieces by the catapult, he immediately commanded the archers on the city to speed up and shoot downwards. At this time, the archers don't need to aim at all, they just need to keep firing their bows and shooting arrows. There are so many Florians below that even a blind man has become an expert archer at this time.

Kussler stood behind the Florian army, quietly watching the tragic war ahead. He knew that this battle itself was a war of attrition, and the Florian soldiers were paving the way forward with their lives and blood. the way. At this time, he has no other choice. If he wants to move forward, he must pay the price.

Marshal, is it time to let the magician take over? A soldier beside Kussler suggested in a low voice.

Kusler shook his head and said: No, it's not yet time. What we have to do now is to consume the opponent's defensive weapons. At the same time, we must also use this time to fill in the moat. Otherwise, even if our magic The division completely suppressed the opponent and had no chance to rush to the city. Come here.

Marshal. A messenger bowed and saluted.

Pass my order to the forward troops and ask them to do whatever it takes. I will give them half an hour to fill up the moat, even with their corpses. Kusler's voice was cold and solemn. You know, he wasn't kidding.

The Foro people's charge became more ferocious. One tower shield fell down and another was erected. More and more corpses piled up by the moat. A whole hour passed. In this hour, the people of the Foro Kingdom The forward troops paid at least 5,000 lives.

However, their sacrifices were not worthless. Fully half of the moat in Sfort City had been filled, and the depth of the sand and gravel filling was not even as deep as the corpses of the Foro people.

The archers at the top of Sfort City have been replaced by the third batch. Each batch of archers will only retreat when their arms are so sore that they cannot lift them. The heavy crossbow's lethality is the most astonishing, but it also has the least accumulation of arrows. Once this heavy arrow with an inch thick body is fired, if it hits the right location, it can even shatter the tower shield. Once it is shot into the crowd, at least several lives will be taken away. On the top of the city, in addition to heavy crossbows, archers lined up in three rows. They drew their bows, stepped forward, and released arrows. The three rows of archers almost achieved seamless release. A large number of bows and arrows poured down the city, constantly harvesting the lives of the Foro people.

Ancelotti said solemnly: Your Excellency, if the current situation continues to develop, it won't be long before our moat will be filled by the Florians. By then, they will definitely launch a more ferocious attack. If I judge That’s right, the Florians are waiting for that time to release their magic on us.”
