Chapter 35 Battle of the Eight-sided Slope 2

The orc infantry advanced for another period against the attack of the original catapult and crossbow cannon, but they entered the scope of the original bow and arrow attack. Next to the fortifications, when he saw that the orc infantry had entered the range of his attack, he did not hesitate to order the soldiers to attack. The dense arrows shot at the orc infantry phalanx.

"Wow! Whoo!" Behind the orc infantry queue, the dense sound of horns sounded with the original man's bow and arrow. In the original world, the archer's bow and arrow range is almost the same as the infantry's charge distance. In fact, it is the same in the era of cold weapons in the earth world. The archers of the defending side shoot arrows, and the attacking infantry will launch a charge. Because only in this way can it not only reduce the unnecessary physical loss of the attacking infantry, but also reduce the casualties of the infantry.

" crossbow! Free attack. Jiang Dongfang saw that the orcs opposite had launched a charge, and he immediately gave orders to the crossbow artillery. When the orcs launch a charge, it is no longer necessary to use rows of giant crossbow arrows, that is, heavy javells, to kill the enemy. Now as long as the crossbow can delay the enemy's attack, it will be successful.

"The catapt! *." Jiang Dongfang also issued new orders to the catapult troops. When the two armies are approaching, hitting the enemy with * will bring more chaos to the enemy. Now, the effect of * is several times stronger than that of boulders.

However, these attacks of the original man did not stop the attack of the orcs. Inspired by the Horn, the orc infantry still rushed to the original position. On the way to attack, orc soldiers were constantly shot by bows and arrows by original soldiers, or were directly pierced by heavy javelins fired by crossbows. As soon as the orc infantry in front of them fell to the ground, the infantry behind them trampled on their bodies and rushed forward. In the process of charging, the soldiers can only move forward without hesitation or retreating, otherwise, their bodies will be knocked down by the following soldiers and trampled directly to death. Therefore, war is cruel! This is especially true in the era of cold weapons. As a charging infantryman, you are either killed by your opponent or trampled to death by your companions. You can only move forward without hesitation!

When the orc infantry approached 30 meters in front of the original position, the son waved the sword in his hand and shouted, "Sword and shield soldier! Spear soldiers are ready for hand-to-hand combat! The archer continued to shoot arrows. After saying that, he put the sword back into his waist, and then touched an infantry spear from his side and held it tightly in his hand.

"The cataping machine, retreat!" Jiang Dongfang also found that the orc infantry was approaching the original defense line. On the one hand, he commanded the crossbow cannon to continue to attack the orc phalanx, and on the other hand, he quickly commanded the catapult to retreat a distance. Although these two long-range attack weapons are similar, the trebuter and the crossbow gun, their attack methods are completely different. A catapult is a parabolic attack. If the ammunition it emits to hit the target, it must fly through the air; while the crossbow gun is different. It is a straight attack. As long as the object blocks the route of the heavy javelin it fires, it will become the target of its attack. Therefore, when the orc infantry approaches the original front, the catapult will retreat to adjust the attack distance, and the crossbow does not need to make any adjustments.

"Transport team! Stop moving forward!" The group standing on the crossbow gun also issued an order, "Protect the crossbow cannon with weapons!" Although these long-range attack weapons are powerful, they do not have close defense capabilities. When the orc soldiers killed it, it could only wait to be separated by the orc soldiers.

The soldiers who were originally responsible for the transportation work listened to the order of the group, and they immediately picked up the knives and guns that had already been placed near the crossbow gun, and then stood in front of the crossbow position and formed a defensive wall.

"Bear Cavalry! Wolf cavalry! Attack." On the other side, the Capricorn rode on the horse to inspect his cavalry troops, and then issued an order to attack the bear cavalry and the wolf cavalry, "Honor is with you! Kill them all."

"Wuch!" The bear cavalry sat down and let out a roar, and then ran forward and rushed up. After that, 500 wolf cavalry followed them and also launched an attack on the original position. In addition, about a thousand orc cavalry also followed the back of the bear and wolf cavalry to charge the original position. In addition to the bear cavalry that launched an attack on the original man, 50 bear cavalry were also reserved for maneuvers.

At this time, on the original man's front line, the orc infantry had rushed to the original man's defensive position. With the help of the protection of the fortification, the original people suppressed the orc infantry before the fortification. Although the orcs are stronger than the original man, they dare not get too close to the original man's fortifications in front of the thorny fortifications on the outside. The orc soldiers in the back row did not know the situation in front of them, and they still pushed the soldiers in front of them to approach the fortifications. In this way, the orc infantry had another chaos. If the orc soldiers in the front row are knife and shield soldiers, they can use shields to block the thorns to avoid harm to their bodies. And if they are long gunmen, if they can't resist the push of the soldiers behind them, they can only be pushed to the fortifications and stabbed to death by thorns.

On the fortifications, Ziyi held a spear and pricked down the orc soldiers with the original spear soldiers. The knives and shields guard the eel and spear soldiers to guard against the damage that the orcs may cause to them. Similarly, the archers also hid behind the swords and shields or fortification bunkers. They got up and quickly shot arrows at the orcs, and then quickly retreated or squatted down, allowing other archers around them to launch a new round of attacks against the orcs.

"Wow! Whoo! Whoo!" After the orc infantry array, there was a short horn. The orc infantry were relieved to hear the sound of horns. They knew that it was the voice calling for them to withdraw the whole team. Under the call of the Horn, the orc infantry slowly retreated for a while, while the bear cavalry and wolf cavalry attacked the original defense line along the cracks of the orc infantry.

" crossbow! The crossbow!" Seeing this, he stood on the low wall of the fortifications and shouted, "Bear cavalry! The bear cavalry is coming!"

Now, the crossbow positions and catapult positions behind the fortifications have been adjusted. Some soldiers in charge of defense informed Jiang Dongfang, Zhang Zhentian and Qiqun of the discovery of bear cavalry. Hearing this, Jiang Dongfang immediately ordered to adjust the target of the crossbow attack. Under his command, 40 crossbow guns stopped attacking the orcs. After hanging the heavy javelin, the crossbow soldiers were waiting for the appearance of the bear cavalry. After adjustment, the catapult is desperately throwing * and other flammable things outside the fortifications.

"Mr. Zhang, do you think we are on the reserve team?" While watching the changes in the attack and defense of the two armies in front of the fortifications, he respectfully asked Zhang Zhentian around him, "If the bear cavalry approaches our defense line, I'm afraid the soldiers on our front line will not be able to resist."

"Then do what you think!" Zhang Zhentian answered with nod. Although he is now appointed as the commander of the three armies by the Lord of Yanyun, he knows that he is not as better than the generals of Yuqun to lead the army to fight. Seeing that Zhang Zhentian agreed to his request, he immediately asked Zhang Zhentian to resign, and then he got off the crossbow and rode to summon the army back.

"Wow!" The bear cavalry rushed to the fortifications while talking. Under the control of the bear cavalry, the giant bear under their seat either waved a huge bear's paw or directly hit the original man's fortifications with a helmet-equipped head.

Although these original fortifications have been reinforced several times with soldiers, they are all temporary buildings. At the beginning, no deep foundation was dug. Therefore, under the repeated attacks of the bear cavalry, the original man's fortifications cracked and shook sharply.

" crossbow! Shoot." When Jiang Dongfang saw that the crossbow had been adjusted, he immediately issued an order to attack. Whew! Whew!" The giant crossbow flew over to the bear cavalry who was hitting the fortification outside the fortification. Ah, disgusting!" With the shooting of the giant crossbow, the bear in the crossbow roared in pain from time to time. Some of these injured war bears fell to the ground seriously, but some rushed up to the original position because of their injuries.
