The Origin of Arcane

Such cases are rare after all. After all, they have been trained for a long time, and they start to attack under the urging of the captain and deputy captain.

There are also very few, even in the face of the threat of military law, they can't pass the hurdle in their hearts, and their whole people are about to collapse.

None of the captains and deputy captains actually enforced the military law, but they were quickly replaced from the top of the city. All the Yongye soldiers present knew that these guys would be permanently removed from the main corps, even the engineering corps They will not be taken in, and they can only do some irrelevant logistical work.

War is never cruel.

In this situation, there is no other way but cold-blooded slaughter. If you can't even adapt to such a scene, how will you adapt to the more brutal war in the future? It's better to eliminate them early to prevent harming others and yourself.

Like clouds and arrows raining down.

Those unarmed mountain people were nailed to death on the road before they ran halfway.

These bastards don't leave us a way to survive at all. We have to rely on ourselves to rush over. Only by rushing over can we have a way to survive!

Come on, I don't want to die, I just want to live, I just want to live!

Kill! Kill! Kill!

The mountain people behind gave up the fantasy of being able to hide behind the ice wall, and rushed towards the ice wall desperately, carrying siege equipment.

They surrendered to the enemy in order to live.

In order to live, they are not afraid of death.

Everything seems to be full of contradictions, but everything actually happened.

I don't know if they regretted it at the moment of their death. If they didn't put down their weapons and resisted to the end when they faced the barbarians from the very beginning, at least they could retain their dignity as human beings.

Regardless of the eternal night guards on the ice wall, or the mountain Kentana barbarians watching coldly, they all know that these mountain people are just a group of cannon fodder.

Test the reaction on the ice wall and at the same time consume the opponent's arrow stock.

Therefore, only the defenders on the first ice wall fired from beginning to end, not to mention the defenders on the second ice wall did not move, even the real killer ballistas and catapults were not used.

That's all. Bear Yale spat heavily.

Although the throwing of Andis' longbow can pose a certain threat to the warriors of the Cliff Clan, it is far from fatal. The Kolei beast from the Kentana Ice Field has long evolved its skin to be extremely thick in order to resist the severe cold. Leather armor tanned with it is much more defensive than ordinary leather armor.

What's more, the sturdy and thick skin and muscles of the warriors of the Cliff Clan are the best double armor.

With just this thing and an ice wall, there is no way to block the footsteps of the cliff clan fighters.

Shield!

As soon as the bear Yale stretched out his hand, two barbarians around him lifted up a huge shield.

Rather than saying it is a shield, it is better to say that it is a pile of logs spliced ​​together, and a patchwork of several layers of animal skins nailed to it is suitable.

Yale put it on his hand, waved it casually twice, vigorously, and showed a satisfied smile involuntarily.

Beauty and ugliness don't matter to him, the most important thing is durability.

Not only him, but the other mountain Kentana barbarians also have a shield with the same shape, only a few sizes smaller.

Cliff! Huha!

Cliff! Huha!

Cliff! Huha!

In a burst of wild cries, the human bear Yale took the lead and rushed towards the ice wall.

What formation! What a collaboration!

Is it important?

unimportant.

At least it is not important to the barbarians in the mountain Kentana. They just need to rush over and chop off each other with one axe.

The enemy has crossed the No. 1 attack line, the catapult is ready, let it go.

The enemy has crossed the No. 2 attack line, the defensive ballista is ready, let go.

The enemy has crossed the No. 3 attack line, and the rapid-fire ballista is ready and released.

The biggest advantage of fixed-point defense is that the range can be calibrated in advance. Conspicuous targets around the city, such as a uniquely shaped tree or a huge rock, may be the marking points of the defensive equipment on the city.

A seasoned and battle-hardened general would use cannon fodder to destroy these conspicuous landmarks before attacking the city, or add some misleading markers to prevent his elite from being hit hard during the attack, causing too much damage. Big loss.

Although Bear Yale has shown his shrewd side and understanding of war, it is limited to their savage wars, and their understanding of the kind of army that is proficient in using war equipment is very limited.

Not to mention those very hidden marking lines, even some very conspicuous landmarks have not been cleaned up.

The most direct consequence is that the Yongye Army's catapults are terribly accurate, and the only thing they need to calculate is the amount in advance.

boom! boom! boom!

Stones weighing hundreds of pounds, endowed with powerful kinetic energy, are full of lethality, and they cannot be carried by the body, even the talented mountain Kentana barbarians.

A little carelessness caused the shield to burst, and he was smashed into an indistinguishable fleshy paste. The boulder rolled seven or eight meters before stopping.

Compared with the powerful catapult, whether it is a large ballista or a rapid-fire ballista, the power displayed is a bit unsatisfactory.

Although the shields held by the barbarians in Kentana in the mountains have a taste of shoddy workmanship, they are thick enough. Even the arrows fired by a large ballista can barely pierce one person. The situation with Blood Gourd is far from it.

The rapid-fire ballista does not break the defense directly, not even the Andis longbow. After all, it is a projectile, and there is a chance to bypass the shield and directly nail the opponent's upper body. , and finally stop shooting directly.

cliff!

The mountain Kentana savages were still shouting frantically, not affected by the casualties of their companions at all, no, it should have been affected, making them more fanatical and faster.

Throw a spear!

Halfway through the charge, the mountain Kentana savages began to counterattack.

The icy and snowy environment of the Kentana Ice Field made bows and crossbows a luxury. Even if they moved to the east of the Andes Mountains, they did not let them develop the habit of using bows and crossbows.

But it doesn't mean that barbarians don't have their own long-range attack method - throwing spears, which is the favorite of those born with brute force.

The Skull Crusher Legion had three short spears in their hands. During the charge, a wave of medium and short-range strikes came first, which made it easier for them to tear apart the enemy's formation.

The mountain Kentana barbarians are also good players, and they are all spears that are not much worse than the defensive ballistas of the Yongye Army. Although the workmanship is a bit rough, no one doubts its lethality.

No matter how dense the defensive catapults on the city wall of the Yongye Group Army were, there were only two or three hundred of them, but there were thousands of mountain Kentana barbarians below the city wall making projection movements at the same time. These were thousands of moving human-shaped catapults.

Tactical evasion! Tactical evasion! Tactical evasion!

Officer Yongye yelled loudly, his voice was distorted because he was too nervous.

For the Yongye Army, this war will most test the response ability of those low-level officers. Those who can detect the situation in time and respond can make the team they lead avoid casualties as much as possible.

As for those who are unresponsive, they will make themselves and their team members pay a heavy price, and will be directly strangled into blood gourds by densely packed spears.

However, most of the spears failed to hit the city head, but were nailed to the city wall in a mess.

At first, I thought it was because the other party was inaccurate and missed, but when I stretched my head to look down, I couldn't help but gasped. These spears nailed to the city wall were simply excellent leverage points. The opponent only needed to lightly With a light jump, and then with two or three times of leverage, he can directly turn over the top of the wall.

Who said that these savages don't know how to use tools, and in just a few days, they found out the weakness of the earth, rock and ice city. As for whether it was intentional or unintentional, it is unknown.

After all, an earth-rock ice city is an earth-rock ice city, far less resistant to construction than masonry structures.

If it was a real city castle, most of these spears would bounce off directly. Fortunately, just before the siege, they were still pouring water on it to reinforce it. The ice layer was already objective, otherwise it would be deeper.

Climbing on slippery ice may be difficult, but for the barbarians of the mountainous Kentana, it should not be too easy. They spend half of their time living on perennially frozen ice sheets, and they have been honed since childhood.

Fire oil, fuel oil!

Fire oil was originally one of the trump cards prepared by the Yongye Army. It was not intended to be used unless it was a last resort. After all, they were guarding an ice city now, and fire oil was used to kill one thousand enemies and damage eight hundred.

But judging from the current posture, it is very likely that the opponent will take down the first city wall with a single charge, and the city wall will be lost soon, so it doesn't matter whether it can cause damage to it.

Fire oil, also known as devil's blood, is known for its violent flammability and tarsal properties.

Xiao En knows the value of this kind of thing, but limited by the current technology, let alone using it, even a general level of purification can't be done, so it can only be collected intact and used as natural combustion Bullets, the lethality is still considerable.

When he fought against the snakes controlled by high-frequency signals, he had made great achievements, and now he once again showed his toughness.

Buckets of black kerosene smashed down, not only dyed the outer layer of the ice wall black, but even the surrounding tens of meters of the city wall were covered with this stuff.

At first, the barbarians in the mountainous Kentana didn't take it seriously at all. After wasting the spears in their hands, they screamed, threw away their heavy shields, and rushed towards the city along those spears. Until countless rockets shot down.

boom!

The explosion caused by violent combustion echoed in the air, and the tongue of fire ruthlessly licked everyone who entered its domain.

Ahhh...

Countless mountain Kentana savages who were caught off guard were directly pushed out by the sudden flames, screamed and fell off the top of the city, turning into a huge torch, howling horribly, rolling crazily on the ground, Not only did the fire not go out, but it was contaminated with more black fire oil, which made the fire burn more violently.

In the beginning, it was still a cry for help, save me, and finally turned into a cry for help to kill me, to kill me.

The warriors of the Cliff Clan beside him did not hesitate at all, they went down with an ax and sent him directly back to the embrace of the ancestor spirit.

Hehe...

There are also a small number of extremely tough mountain Kentana barbarians, ignoring the raging flames on their bodies, and rushed to the top of the city with a strange smile, causing the Yongye Army to panic, and six or seven long spears stabbed out at the same time. Push the opponent out.

However, such terrifying and almost perverted warriors are in the minority after all, including the bear Yale. The first moment he realized something was wrong, he shrunk his huge body into a ball, blocked the black fire oil falling from the sky with a super shield, Saved my life.

While retreating quickly, he picked up a small shield discarded by others from the ground and protected his vitals. This kind of caution saved his life again. A spear pierced through the shield, almost hurting his arm. It was stabbed in half.

The firing angles of ballistas and catapults on the first wall were affected, but the large catapults on the second wall and between the two walls were not. They were showing power at a slow but continuous speed. It seemed that every blow Both took the lives of several mountain Kentana barbarian warriors.

Aw!

The human bear Yale roared like a wounded beast. The victory was close at hand, but he was interrupted by the opponent's vicious means, which made him feel extremely aggrieved, but he was helpless. If some clan fighters rushed up, they would be sent to death.

The warriors of the Cliff Clan were not afraid of death, but they would not be wasted on this kind of meaningless attack, so they could only give orders to retreat.

The black fire oil burned for a full two hours before it slowly extinguished. The previously reinforced ice layer was completely roasted. Even if the spear thrown by the barbarians in Kentana had not been burned, it lost its support and fell to the ground. .

Although the ice wall was damaged to a certain extent, it was not fatal.

First, the ice wall has adopted a multi-layer cross structure from the very beginning, and local damage will not affect the internal structure.

Secondly, the ice wall is thick enough, even the top can run a horse.

Not to mention burning for two hours, even if it burned for a day and a night, it would not be able to burn it down.

This is naturally the credit of Mr. Ferdinand. After all, this is an ice city with ice as the main adhesive. Naturally, full consideration should be given to fire resistance, at least it can last longer.

The mountain Kentana savages were slow to launch a second attack.

First, the throwing spear in his hand was almost consumed and needed to be replenished.

Secondly, they couldn't figure out how many of those dark things were still in each other's hands.

At that time, they just rushed up, and then they came back without success. During the process of charging and returning, they were the targets of the opponent's long-range attack weapons.

This charge alone reduced the number of barbarians in the mountain Kentana by more than 300 people.

This is the sum of all losses after entering the mountain.

If they come here again three or four times, the Cliff Clan will kneel here.

The Yongye Group Army also took the opportunity to fetch water, poured the city walls, and re-strengthened them. In order to facilitate the water fetching, the Yongye Group Army moved several manpower water trucks and set up pipelines at high altitudes to fetch water 24 hours a day.

A day and a night of hard work not only restored the city wall to its original state, but also made it stronger. The sparse light snow that began to fall in the morning turned into heavy snow at noon. The temperature dropped sharply, and the inland lake showed signs of freezing. helpful.

In the face of life and death, no one is a fool.

The mountain Kentana savages never launched a full-scale attack after that, but used the wheeled turtle tactic.

Wearing a crude but super-resistant log shield, like a tortoise, he slowly advanced. After the distance was almost the same, there was a wave of destructive spear throwing.

The manufacture of these throwing spears is even cruder than that of the first wave.

At least the first wave was iron-clad, able to nail into the ice wall, and all subsequent waves became sharpened log sticks.

Obviously, these barbarians don't have so many iron resources to spend on these disposable consumables.

Even so, when they are filled with powerful kinetic energy, their lethality is still quite terrifying. Although there is no way to penetrate the iron-studded Tang's studded armor head-on, the powerful impact kinetic energy generated by it will make those soldiers who are shot, at least The bone is broken and the tendon is broken, and the severe one is bleeding in the abdomen.

Fortunately, this is in the Yongye Army, and they have done a lot of research on injuries in this area. As long as they are handled properly, the death rate will be greatly reduced. If they are replaced by other armies, they can all be included in the death list.
