Chapter 166 Unlucky Orc

Edis misasse estimated the situation. He and his commanders determined that the human retreat was due to lack of stamina, so the orc army began to reassemerge. Their purpose remained unchanged, annihilating all human soldiers, and capturing those strange equipment. The orc empire took out a large shield made of wood from their ladens, long-range attacking bows and arrows, and organized the next attack.

This orc army is fully ready for battle. More than 2,000 giant bear warriors with iron armor are placed as the main force in the middle main attack position. Behind them are 10,000 of the most elite orc warriors and 300 Bimeng giant beasts. As a unit like the Chinese army, it is enough to defeat more than 50,000 Pu in an instant. Human forces

The orc army has prepared shields. Although the defense of these wooden shields is very limited, it is indeed better than nothing. The orc troops on the left wing are 20,000 orc infantry. They are the troops that did not participate in the war yesterday and have complete combat effectiveness. The right wing is 3000 wolf knights who did not participate in the war yesterday, and more than 8,000 infantry left in the war yesterday, and the wolf knight troops defeated yesterday were left in the rear to guard supplies and ships.

The army of orcs maintaining the traditional formation began to move forward slowly. After walking all morning, they finally found the target they were going to attack - Rome Newport. The whole Xingang defense line is divided into grassroots design. There is a barbed wire defense belt more than 10 meters wide in the front, and a 7 meters wide trench behind it. Sea water is introduced in it, and then there is a short wall with a height of 5 meters behind it. More than 4,000 large crossbows are arranged on this wall. The main purpose is to ensure that the magic cannon is cooled. The enemy will not quickly approach the wall. Further on, there is the main wall, which is 15 meters high, which is much shorter than the ordinary human wall in order to save costs. However, more than 700 magic cannons are arranged on the wall, which is about the number of all the guns of the Third Division, but the caliber is much larger. Then there are strange iron shelves. These iron shelves have two uses. The first is to put the infantry's shield on it, and then the crossbow troops can easily shoot and hide behind the shield to load them. There is no need to worry about the enemy's counterattack. The other function is that once the wall is lost, it can be here when retreating. Some ready-made iron shelves wrapped with barbed wire can quickly turn into barbed wire defense belts to prevent enemy pursuit. Every detail of this set of defense measures is designed for killing, which is extremely exquisite.

The magic cannon on the city wall faces in all directions, but more than 300 magic cannons can be fired at the same time in the main direction. Coupled with the magic cannons of the fourth division defending the city, the orcs will face thousands of magic cannons, which is enough to devour the lives of thousands of beasts in an instant.

At noon, against the hot sun, the first attack of the orc troops began. When they had their siege equipment, they rushed to the seemingly small wall. Their siege equipment was prepared to attack the elf city of Erihar. Naturally, they did not pay attention to the small city in front of them.

But they were wrong. After the orcs attacked, they found that they were a little wrong.

The orc troops constantly attacking with crossbow arrows slowly advanced near the wall. From time to time, crossbow arrows penetrated several orcs and nailed to the ground. Small crossbow arrows also shot through wooden shields from time to time to kill the orc infantry behind. This slow advance was like hell for the orcs behind the shield, fighting back. The orc archers fell in pieces, and the countless arrows shot into the opponent's city wall did not weaken the opponent's counterattack strength at all. Some orc archers even doubted whether their bows and arrows really shot into the opponent's archers' phalanx. Their bows and arrows did shoot into Romer's crossbow attack phalanx, but the casualties were indeed limited. The Romer archers with armor also had the defense of iron shields, and only a few dozen people were really hit because of bad luck.

The orcs who finally approached the wall found that the barbed wire in front of them were wider and higher than yesterday's. These orcs had no choice but to start dealing with the barbed wire in front of them. The most effective way is to press the wooden shield on the barbed wire and then walk over the shield. In fact, these orcs They did this. As a result, the orcs who jumped over the barbed wire net stepped into the 7-meter-wide puddle. The fate of these orcs can be imagined. In order not to survive, they had to hold their wooden shields, but without shield defense, they had to face the continuous rain of arrows, but in an instant, the whole The moat turned blood red, covered with the bodies of orc warriors.

Edits, the orc commander in the distance, looked distressedly at the struggling orc attacking troops and hesitated whether to continue to attack the troops. It is estimated that those miserable attacking troops have paid more than half of the casualties. The reason why the whole line has not collapsed is that these orcs, which are completely suppressed by the opponent's firepower, dare not even try to escape easily.

"Don't move, don't push me! There is a river ahead! Bastard!" An orc shouted loudly.

"Who the hell are you calling, I...ah!" The man was hit by a bow and fell down before he finished speaking.

Some orcs crossed the dangerous moat with the help of their companions and other people's shields and hid under the wall. They did not dare to speak loudly. Because they had lost almost all the siege equipment, they did not dare to launch an attack. They could only squat at the foot of the wall and look forward to the hellish day.

The orc siege troops in the distance are also facing a huge test. They build trewarts and old-fashioned crossbow guns for siege in a relatively safe place. These weapons are equally large in size and power, which is also the main means of the Orc Empire to attack the city. Their way to deal with the heavy wall is to find a way to make it bigger The stones were cast on the wall and completely destroyed.

But this time they are doomed to be unlucky. The large crossbow made of Romai's fine steel has an unparalleled range advantage. These small crossbows began to attack those siege weapons in range. As a result, the attack of the strong crossbow made the orcs who were building siege weapons and preparing shields at all pay. At a heavy price, some large catapults were damaged by crossbows and could no longer be used.

After paying the price of about 7,000 people, the troops of the Orc Empire still struggled on the first two lines of the Rome Newport defense line. Unexpectedly, only a few hundred orcs scattered close to the first wall of Rome Island.

The price paid by Rome Island was hundreds of casualties on the first wall and the deaths of hundreds of archers.
