The effect of the catapult is quite obvious.
Since the accuracy of the catapult is not high, about half of the stone bullets did not hit Stormwind City, but only hit the ground in front of Stormwind City, or just hit the city wall. But even so, the heavy stone bullets still hit the ground And the city wall brought one big hole after another.
Fortunately, the soldiers had already hid under the wall at the top of the city, so these stone bullets did not cause any damage to them.
However, the powerful deterrence of the stone bullets truly frightened the soldiers defending the city.
Every stone bullet that hits the city head will make the soldiers tremble, and the scattered gravel reminds them of the terrifying power of these stone bullets.
If anyone is unlucky enough to be hit, they will all turn into meat paste.
Compared to city walls, stone bullets cause more serious damage to buildings within the city.
Those stone bullets that flew over the city wall caused huge damage to the residences close to the city wall. As long as an ordinary house was hit, it would definitely cause the collapse of the entire building. Those incendiary bombs that lit the fire caused even more damage in the city. The fire was raging, and many wooden houses were burned at once. If most of the houses in Stormwind City were not made of stone, the spread of the fire would cause big trouble to the defenders of Stormwind City.
Fortunately, because the existence of the catapults was known in advance, the residences near the city wall had been evacuated long before the battle began, so this wave of attacks did not cause many casualties.
Unfortunately, that's not all the Twilight's Hammer attack has to offer.
As the orc laborers began to carry ammunition and prepare for the second round of stone-throwing attacks, the Twilight Hammer army also began to move towards the bottom of the city tower.
The existence of catapults can effectively suppress the defenders at the top of the city, preventing them from emerging and causing damage to the soldiers attacking the city. The infantry can take advantage of this and get as close to the city wall as possible under the cover of the catapults.
The form of war suddenly became critical.
With terrifying stone bullets flying above their heads and enemies as dense as a tide beneath their feet, who could withstand this for the defenders of Stormwind City?
At this moment, King Llane Wrynn stood up.
It must be said that Ryan is indeed an excellent king. When the situation was critical and the morale of the soldiers was low, he decisively put on his armor and risked his own life to climb the tower.
"My bravest soldiers, I am your king, Llane Wrynn." On top of the city, Llane used his loud voice to attract the attention of the soldiers.
"There has never been true peace in the Kingdom of Stormwind. Our ancestors came across the sea from the continent of Lordaeron and established our home here. We fought with the trolls of Gurubashi, and we fought with Elwin. The jackals in the forest fought. We expanded my homeland step by step and established the great country we have today. Your contribution is due to this."
Speaking of this, the soldiers all recalled the glorious battles in the past, and they couldn't help but puff up their chests.
"However, the Kingdom of Stormwind was invaded. Their opponents were ferocious orcs. They killed our people like pigs and dogs. They burned our pastures and occupied our farmland. Now, they want to invade Stormwind City. We The last hope is to kill all our relatives. So now, I need you to stand up again. I need you to stick to the city and block those green-skinned monsters. Their wives and children are behind you. You are the last hope of Stormwind City."
Lian's words made the soldiers truly understand their responsibilities and understand that they must sacrifice.
Ryan pulled out his sword and raised it high
"I am lucky to have a group of brave soldiers like you. I, your king, Llane Wrynn, will stand with you and face your enemies with you, raising my sword against them.
"Either you or I, maybe tonight or tomorrow, may die in this damn war. But it doesn't matter, because we will use our lives to build the strongest fortress for our wives and children behind us. For the Kingdom of Storms!"
"For the Kingdom of Storms!"
The soldiers followed Ryan and shouted slogans loudly.
Ryan's speech made the soldiers feel excited and full of courage. The timidity of facing the orcs had disappeared from them unconsciously.
Throwing stones Although the machine is still terrifying and the orcs are still terrifying, they have no fear because they are fighting for themselves and their families.
As the Twilight Hammer soldiers get closer to the city wall, the catapults gradually increase their speed. As the slinging distance increased, the city wall gradually ceased to be the target of catapults.
Human soldiers began to show their heads on the city wall. They carried the rolling logs and stones that had been prepared long ago, ready to be used at any time.
And human beings Like the siege of the city, the orcs set up ladders under the city wall. The Twilight Hammer warriors climbed up the ladders one after another and launched an attack on the city. The humans on the city were not to be outdone. The stone was thrown downwards at the orc soldiers.
The high city wall gave the falling logs and stones a huge potential energy. Even the strong orcs and taller ogres would not be able to deal with these high-altitude projectiles. There was no room for resistance.
Many orcs and ogres who were eager to attack were smashed and fell from the ladder in an instant, falling into a puddle of meat. The unlucky ones were also rubbed by rolling logs and rocks, and were The skin and flesh were torn apart, the bones were shattered, and he was seriously injured all at once. However, even such a tragic situation failed to slow down the offensive of the orc tribe.
On the contrary, the blood of these casualties inspired the hidden bloodthirst in their hearts, making them They became even more fanatical, and howled angrily as they rushed up the ladder to the top of the city. Soon, an orc broke through the obstruction of the throwing objects and climbed up the tower along the ladder, but before he could gain a firm footing, several orcs came with a sharp weapon. The sword thrust forward and cut him into pieces.
Unfortunately, among the orcs who climbed onto the city, there were only two orcs after the first one.
Although the first batch of"lucky ones" who successfully climbed onto the city were all killed by the soldiers guarding the city. It was solved immediately, but there were more and more latecomers, and soon the soldiers were unable to suppress everyone. In this way, the orcs and ogres were able to take advantage of their strong individual strength and gain a foothold on the city.
It didn't take long for several gaps to appear on the top of the city. The powerful orcs opened up several footholds on the top of the city and tried to use this as a base to expand their advantage.
Faced with this situation, the soldiers guarding the city They did not feel afraid, but regardless of the difference in strength, they attacked the orcs one after another, vowing to take back the city and suppress them. For a time, the narrow city wall became a millstone of flesh and blood, and countless warriors from both sides laid down their lives here. They were fighting, and the bodies on the ground were piled up like mountains._To read the underlined version of the novel, please download Feilu Novel A
