Lord of War

  In the first round of arrow shooting, thousands of skeleton soldiers were eliminated on the spot.

  But this number is a trivial number for the undead cannon fodder of more than 300,000. It can even be said that it is simply a number that can be ignored, especially the skeletons that were crushed into bone fragments on the spot are just the most ordinary skeleton warriors.

Although there are more detailed divisions of skeleton warriors, they can basically be classified into three types: skeleton swordsmen with swords, skeleton pikemen with spears, and skeleton archers with bows and arrows. They can be summarized as close range and middle range. And three types of long distances. Because it is a unified form of resurrection undead, so there are relatively consistent configurations in body shape and weapons, and there are rarely too special situations. After all, they are only second-order undead creatures, and it is not very worthwhile for those necromancers to waste their minds.

  However, only skeleton swordsmen and skeleton archers appeared on the battlefield at this time. Perhaps because they knew that they were going to attack the city, they did not see the skeleton spearmen.

  In the field, the spearman’s lethality is much higher than that of the sword soldier. However, in a siege, unless it has entered a battle for occupation and conquest of the city wall, the spearman is not suitable for the environment of a siege war at all.

  After the first round of arrow rain covering blows, soon more undead creatures stepped on their companion’s corpse and continued to charge.

  And this time, the real war begins.

  The undead army spread out is exactly the same length as the entire fortress wall, but unlike the wall, they have a greater thickness. Moreover, after suffering from the loss of the first wave of arrow rain covering blows, the Undead Vanguard has undergone some subtle changes-this change does not seem to be special, but the one that rushes forward is no longer Skeleton swordsman, but a lower-level skeleton soldier.

  This is a first-order skeleton creature. Their body bones look a little gray and yellowish, as if they are severely deficient in calcium, and there are even cracks in some places. Even the weapons in his hands were rusty, and it seemed that they couldn’t kill people at all. But on the contrary, they have equipment that other undead creatures don’t have—shields. This round wooden shield, which doesn’t even have iron skin, may not be able to block a powerful arrow shot from the steel-winged soldiers, but it is used to weaken the arrows. The arrow covers the power of the blow. But it is enough.

  ”Don’t worry about those skeleton soldiers!” Although Abaza has not entered the golden realm. But he is no longer the stunned green back then. He can tell at a glance that these skeleton soldiers pose no threat at all. If it weren’t for the location of the undead creatures of the skeleton system, he didn’t even want to waste precious arrows on them. Those skeleton warriors.

   “No.” This time it was Levi who spoke against it.

He slid the bow and arrow in his hand back to Abaza, and explained: “In other places, we may be able to ignore these skeleton soldiers. But in the city defense battle, it is absolutely not possible. Because these guys are the attack of the undead army. The city ladder. Once these guys are allowed to build a road against the city wall, the skeleton cavalry behind can charge once.”

   “Charge?” Abaza was taken aback, then laughed, “Then let them come.”

   Then, the entire steel-winged soldiers laughed.

  Levy is a newcomer who has just joined the Void Duchy, so he didn’t know that Iron Wing’s most famous record was blocking the group charge of the most famous cavalry regiment in the Kingdom of Darbion. Maybe other enemies will let the steel wings throw the rodents, but only the cavalry charge that has made countless infantry armies distracted. But it is the method they least need to worry about.

  Levy didn’t understand why these people laughed so happily.

Alfred stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder: “Iron Wings. It’s called steel. Do you think it’s just nice? The most feared thing in their army is to charge. Whether it’s a cavalry or a knight, For them there is no difference.”

  Just as Alfred was talking to Levi, the steel-winged archers had already fired two more rounds of arrow rain. But after all, they did not completely let go of the skeleton soldiers, but began to restrict their offensive steps in a targeted manner. However, the main attack coverage is still slightly further behind, and the undead creatures are the real main combat forces of this vanguard. .

   “Two-thirds benchmark!” A scout issued a warning.

  The leading force of the Undead Army is close to the position of two-thirds of the benchmark.

  ”The second and third rows of the bow troops alternately cover shooting!”

  Abaza raised his right hand, and with a sudden wave, the archer in the second column no longer shoots at full length. Instead, he and the archer in the third column alternately cover and strike the undead creatures that are close to the second marker line. Only the archer standing in the forefront still kept shooting at the farthest undead creatures in a full-stringed state, but because the second row that was supposed to shoot alternately gave up the farthest shooting, so in combat efficiency Naturally, it is no better than before.

  But this time, all the steel-winged archers standing on the city wall started shooting, and the coverage area was naturally wider, and the threat to the undead army was naturally increased a lot. Almost every moment, there are thousands of undead being hit by powerful arrows into pieces of bone fragments, most of which are directly shot through the skull with an arrow, extinguishing the fire of the soul.

   But even so, as far as this undead army is concerned, it is still completely unable to shake it.

  And as more undead troops rushed to the front, skeleton archers also began to appear in the sight of the steel-winged soldiers.

  But in the face of these skeleton archers, no one took them seriously.

The Void Principality may not have a special understanding of the information and materials of the undead, but it still understands the most conventional undead knowledge: the skeleton archer, the second-order undead creature, the effective shooting distance is less than 100 meters, and the best killing distance is 30 meters. To sixty meters. In other words, the so-called skeleton archers are not much more threatening than an Orion holding a hunting bow.

  While standing on the 30-meter-high city wall, it is the defender of the city. The skeleton archers are even 300 meters away from the city wall. In the eyes of the steel-winged archers, these skeleton archers are no different from living targets. So there is almost a tacit understanding, all the arrows of the steel-winged war archers avoid these skeleton archers. Because all the Void Barbarians, including Abaza, thought it was a problem with the commander of the Undead Army, and they used the Skeleton Archer so quickly.

  If the undead army attacked the city wall, and then let these skeleton archers advance under the city wall, then it might pose a certain threat to the defender.

  As for now?

  No one cares at all.

  The distance between the two-thirds mark and the half-chord mark. Only about a hundred meters.

  So when the undead army crosses the two-thirds benchmark. Naturally, he quickly pushed the front line to the half-string benchmark position, which was only about two hundred meters away from the city wall. If it is a real siege war, then the offensive team will generally start desperately forward after reaching this position, and then try to start fighting on the city wall and the defending army-everyone who has fought a city war offensive and defensive knows that, the more It is close to the city wall, especially at the distance of the last 100 meters, this kind of fighting between offensive and defensive sides will be more **** and tragic.

  But when facing an unconscious army of undead. The situation is naturally very strange.

  All the undead creatures did not make any final crazy charges. Instead, they kept their tepid rhythm slowly advancing. The defenders of the steel wings naturally wished that the undead army would continue to do so, because they had more time to shoot. This may not be able to truly eliminate the undead creatures siege to the city, but it can at least weaken the number of these undead army to a certain extent.

   Facing these undead army that has entered the half-string benchmark, Abaza didn’t say anything, just made a tactical gesture.

  Soon, several messengers began to wave command flag signals.

  At the next moment, the other third of the steel-winged soldiers who had not boarded the city wall also began to take down their bows and arrows. Then hit an arrow. Under one command of the command flag, all the Void Barbarians immediately released their right hands. Throw out the arrow on the bow.

  The dense cluster of arrows draws a parabola from the fortress, and then shoots at all the undead army that crosses the half-chord pole. Under the double force, these undead soldiers quickly received a more deadly blow than the fortress wall-although the coverage of this wave of arrows was much smaller, and even the accuracy of the head was much worse, but in terms of penetration strength, It was an attack far beyond the city wall defenders.

  The continuous arrow strikes, under normal circumstances, are long enough to make the enemy’s morale close to collapse. Even a general death-wave war or a skeletal invasion war is enough to let the undead commander know how difficult the fortress is. It is definitely not so small that a cannon fodder can be swallowed. The best option is to retreat and reformulate. Strategy: Or change a place to attack, or mobilize the undead regular army sequence.

   But this army of cannon fodder in front of him, it seems that he doesn’t understand the truth of war at all, and it is still just a brain attack, completely ignoring the casualties and consequences.

In just a few minutes, from the advancement of the undead army to the present, although the skeleton army at the front line is only a hundred meters away from the city wall, the casualties of this undead army are also from the beginning. Thousands of skeletons have suffered more than 30,000 damages.

  Even the entire Skeleton Sea can feel its obvious weakening and reduction.

   “The situation is not right.” William frowned slightly.

“Undead cannon fodder, it is impossible to have such crazy aggressiveness.” Levi also found the problem, “We have used up tens of thousands of arrows. Even if we can only solve one skeleton every three arrows, the enemy is at least More than 30,000 were killed in battle.”

  ”This is not an ordinary temptation, but a consumption of our strategic materials!” William said in a deep voice, “If this is the case…”

   “Wow!”

  A sharp arrow made of polished arm bones suddenly strikes William Breaking the air!

  I saw a silver light suddenly lit up in the air-Levi reacted in the first place, and swung his sword to intercept the arrow.

  But in the next moment, the sharp sound of breaking through the air sounded one after another.

  In an instant, the steel-winged soldier at the forefront fell down like a harvested wheat. Many of the unlucky ones are directly planted directly from the 30-meter-high city wall to the ground; while most soldiers are directly hit on vital parts, such as the throat, eyes, etc., only a few of the steel-winged soldiers are lucky. Escaped this sudden wave of catastrophe, but suffered a little injury.

   “Bone Archer!” Lay defended William and quickly retreated to the rear.

   “Leadun!” And Abaza’s voice sounded at the same time as Levi’s shout.

  Without any hesitation, the steel-winged soldier standing in the forefront gave up and continued shooting, and then quickly picked up the impact shield next to it. Protected in front of him. This method of not hesitating in order to save the soldiers of the steel wings from the next disaster-the clanging collision sounded at a speed that was not inferior to the previous arrow rain of the steel wings.

   “Damn it!” Abaza let out an angry roar, “When did the undead become so cunning! Those bone archers are actually hidden among the skeleton archers, the number is at least 20,000!”

if we assume. Skeleton archers are just the words of the most common archer in the human army. Then the bone archer can be regarded as a strong archer with the upgrade of the archer arms. In terms of shooting strength, penetration or range, the bone archer is much stronger than the skeleton archer. Such undead creatures that reach Tier 4 already have a shooting distance of more than two hundred meters, and the arrows they use are special bone arrows, which allows them to enjoy a certain degree of damage bonus.

  If Levi was not with William just now, it is very likely that the wave of conspiracy attacks will cause the entire fortress to lose its supreme commander.

  But the current situation. There is not too much advantage for the side of the steel wings.

  More than 20,000. Perhaps more skeletal archers, when they came to the half-string benchmark position two hundred meters from the fortress wall, began to launch a fierce counterattack. But in this kind of counterattack, they did not stop, but continued to advance toward the front of the line. With the advancement of these bone archers, their attacks became more and more fierce, and it could even be said that they were completely suppressed. Live the steel wings on the city wall and shoot.

  They are not afraid of changing lives with steel-winged soldiers. But Abaza couldn’t give this kind of brainless order that was basically a death-death behavior. He could only take advantage of the momentum of these skeletal archers to pause slightly, and then ordered the second and third row of war archers to launch a counterattack. Although he already knew it. They couldn’t stop the undead army from advancing without caring about loss, but when they were really suppressed and could not slow the progress of the undead, Abaza still felt very angry.

   While the skeletal archer launched a counterattack, it seemed to be an offensive signal for the entire army of undead.

  The skeleton mage, who had stayed in the distance without any movement at all, finally started to move forward again at this time. Every time their staff suddenly fell on the ground, a black ball of light would shoot to the ground in front of them, and then soon, those skeletons that were not badly damaged would be reorganized again.

Although this spell has a big flaw, it can only make these skeletons the lowest level of skeleton soldiers, but when everyone on the wall saw these skeletons that had been wiped out once again, they got up again. Still feeling depressed in his heart for a while.

  Alfred squeezed the battle axe in his hand, his face looked very gloomy: “These **** bones…. William, let me attack!”

“Go to die?” William sneered mercilessly, “This level of scale, even if you, Clover and Abaza all rush up, it won’t help. The enemy is just forcing us out of the city. Why do you want to satisfy the opponent’s tactics? No matter how many of these skeleton soldiers, they will not be able to play any role in the battlefield. They really attack the city wall and they will be broken with a single shot, so they are just material consumables.”

“Summoning skeleton soldiers in front of the battle is just to weaken our confidence and morale.” Levi also added that in dealing with the undead army, Levi from the floating island can definitely be regarded as a professional scientific personnel. They are just materials used to build the ladder path…. The real trouble is the skeleton mages. I bet there must be bone mages mixed in them.”

“Abaza, order all steel wings. Except for the reserve team to maintain coverage strikes, the war bow troops on the city wall don’t care about other undeads. If they want to build a ladder, let them build it. You just need to find the right opportunity to give the opponent’s skeleton mage. Come and be cruel.” William said faintly, there was no eagerness on his face, some were just calm and calm. If the redness on his face hadn’t completely faded, I’m afraid no one would believe that he is still excited now. Status, “Since these skeleton mages dare to enter our attack range, then there is no need to be polite with them.”

   “I see!” Abaza’s voice was a little excited.

  He couldn’t figure out too much truth, but he knew that skeleton warriors and skeleton soldiers were not worth any money at all. If they could shoot arrows at those **** skeleton mages, then the value would be great. But for those bone archers who had killed many of his brothers, if given the opportunity, he didn’t plan to let it go.

   Soon, Abaza found an opportunity to shoot an overly forward skeleton mage on the spot.

  This caused a panic in the entire group of skeleton mages, and many skeleton mages stepped back and did not dare to step forward. And such a move undoubtedly annoyed the bone archers, and their attacks suddenly became more fierce.

   But this time, no one was worried. Instead, there was a burst of laughter.

  The morale that had been slightly low, was soon promoted again and restored.

  However, the skeleton soldiers who rushed forward finally arrived under the wall. (To be continued~^~)
