Chapter 431: Killing multiple things with one fell swoop (Part 2)
As Cons nodded, the horn thought for a moment, and the forward of the sword and shield hand who received the order flew out an arrow and inserted it on the ground of the 100 meters in the 100-meter-meter-long land. Then an arrow shot out from the back formation, inserted it a hundred meters behind the upper arrow.
Then the sword and shield hand slowly moved forward. When the team arrived at the next arrow, the team stopped, and two onion teams shot out from the front and back. They just stopped and waited for the arrow to hit the wall after the entire team stopped. The large army that had been waiting behind quickly led the arrow into the sword and shield hand queue.
When the sword and shield hand advanced, Ultrahan ordered his archers to start testing the effective range of the bow and arrow. He didn't care about those sword and shield hand. By the same token, there were quite a lot of archers on Ultrahan, and he had just divided up a batch of equipment from Har Castle, and he did not lack co-construction and arrows.
Hum, I'm more than a bow and arrow? Look at me not shooting you to death! Ultrahan muttered to himself and looked at the enemy who was getting closer and closer. When the enemy reached the range of the bow and arrow, Ultrahan immediately waved his hand, and the dense rain of arrows immediately shot towards the Kons's sword and shield hands.
Cons's sword and shield hand did not foolishly fight alone, but instead put the wooden shields on the front row on the ground, the second row of the wooden shields in the front row, and the third row of shields were raised and placed on the second row of shields that were already one person tall. In a moment, a dense wooden wall appeared in everyone's eyes. Ultrahan's arrows were like rain hitting a banana, and they were inserted into the wooden shields. Almost all of them did useless work.
A few arrows that could fly over the wooden shield were easily blocked by the small round shield.
Cons didn't look closely, and waved his hand, and a huge chirping sound of teeth sounded, and then a whizzing sound of breaking through the air, a denser and more violent rain of arrows hit the walls of the town.
The soldiers who were still pulling bows and shooting archers on the walls saw the opponent fighting back, and immediately hid under the walls with fast reactions. The slow reactions could only scream and fell to the ground and died like a hedgehog.
Because he was proud of standing on the wall and volleying with his bow from a high place, Althan's subordinates were all leather armor except for the guards around the officers who were equipped with shields and small groups of elite soldiers.
In fact, this leather armor is just a good-looking and warm purpose or can resist the attacks of knife and ineffective arrows, but it cannot provide any protection for sharp arrows, assassinations and other attacks within the range, so screams sounded one after another.
Ultrahan's heartache tears were almost coming out, and his soldiers were killed in an instant! He couldn't help but shouted angrily: "Shield! Put a shield for me!"
In fact, there was no need for Ultrahan to give orders. At the critical moment, his soldiers had already voluntarily lifted the shields placed together to block their bodies. Although the casualties were immediately reduced, they were also because the soldiers were hiding under the shields, so they didn't have to fight back with bows and arrows.
Cons first shot three times, and then three times, he divided the archers into eight teams in order of five hundred people, and launched continuous and intensive shootings on Ultrahan's wall in sequence.
Originally, a archer would lose his power by shooting dozens of arrows in a row, but now he only shoots once after eight rounds, and every round the officer will deliberately provoke the command.
"Take the string, aim, shoot!" Just shouting this command took more than ten seconds, so that every archer could have time to rest. According to the archer's speculation, he had the strength to fight by using two bags of arrow pouches. He felt relaxed, and his current attack was like shooting training.
Ultrahan also noticed that the attacks on the arrow rain were not so dense. He took a risky look and found that the opponent's arrow formation only shot hundreds of arrows every time. Seeing this, the first thing everyone thought of was that the enemy did not bring baggage, so he wanted to save some arrows!
As soon as this idea came out, Ultrahan immediately became excited. He also sent some people to cover the shield by following the Cons army, while others shook their arms and pulled their bows and shot arrows.
However, because Ultrahan's soldiers were so excited, the officers had not had time to stop them, and perhaps they did not realize that when the officers began to take turns shooting, Ultrahan's archers had already drawn the bow five or six times in a row, all of them were a little breathless.
On the side of the Cons army, seeing the enemy's arrows raining violently several times and then sparsely falling, Cons waved his hand again, and the round shield hands split into a group to move forward, and the sword and shield hands in the front row roared forward, and the shields in the second row were lowered, and the shields in the third row became the second row, and the wooden shields in the fourth row were placed on the third row of shields.
The wooden wall did not change, but there was an extra row of shield hands holding large shields and slid forward, and there were also a group of round shield hands behind them.
Seeing the enemy approaching, Othan immediately shouted: "Stones, hot oil, and ready to roll the wood! As soon as they approach, they will smash them to death and burn them to death!"
The soldiers also knew that these enemies carrying turtle shells could not solve the problem with bows and arrows, so they immediately prepared the defense facilities on the wall. However, the sharpshooter specially drawn by Cons also aimed at these people early. When they saw that they had emerged, they immediately shot an arrow to take the opponent's life.
After a few times, Ultrahan's soldiers had to hide under the shield and carefully prepared for the things that were about to be thrown down the wall.
It seems to be a very fierce urban offensive and defensive battle. In fact, the wall of Ultrahan is only three meters high and two hundred meters long on one side hits the wall. In other words, if there is siege equipment, throwing a batch of turbulent oil and shooting rockets can burn the wall. It’s a pity that Cons did not bring siege equipment, so it was so furious that it was like this.
However, don't think that Cons's losses will be heavy.
Cons had 5,000 people, and only one wall was shot. With the complete protective equipment, only dozens of people were killed and killed by the bows and arrows at the beginning. On the other hand, nearly two hundred people had been shot to death.
The reason why the attack and defense wear must be so large is that Ultrahan has a short wooden wall, and the number of Cons's archers is more than twice that of Ultrahan, so it is not surprising to get such a battle loss ratio.
However, this is also temporary, because the siege party suffered heavy losses and had not yet broken out.
The sword and shield hand that was about to approach the wall suddenly stopped, which made the Ultrahan soldier who had already raised the stone and rolling wood could only curse and put down the things in his hand, and pay attention nervously.
These sword and shield hands, which were only about ten meters away from the wall of the town, stopped in place as if they were afraid of death, and used their shields to protect themselves tightly.
It turned out that the Ultrahan archer who was still shooting at this side was so angry that he shot directly at close range. He usually did useless work, but there were also powerful archers who shot arrows through the turtle shell, causing screams inside.
Such offense and defense were of course praised by Pao Ze, but such archers were also the target of the sharpshooters on Cons' side, so they just smiled proudly under Pao Ze's praise, and the next moment they were taken away by a sharp arrow.
When the turtle shells were wondering what the turtle shells were parked there, the Cons army divided up another shield soldiers who were moving forward, and this time the one who followed him was replaced by archers.
Seeing the enemy's actions, Ultrahan's face immediately became dark. Seeing this scene, the idiot also knew that the enemy was trying to slowly move the large army ten meters away from the town wall.
However, the side of Ultrahan recovered immediately because they could not think of any harm to them. It was amazing that the battle to the city broke out early.
Although everyone didn't care about the enemy coming forward, it was always unhappy to the wall of the town so easily that the enemy could not lose anything. Therefore, people kept attacking the turtle shell outside the town. Although they caused some damage to the enemy, these people were shot and killed by the sharpshooter on Cons' side.
In a short while, the Cons army had gathered nearly a thousand people ten meters away from the town wall, which greatly increased the pressure on the Ultrahan army. Ultrahan had begun to consider whether to open the town gate and endure to drive away such a turtle shell.
Just as everyone was hesitating, the turtle shell position outside the wall suddenly opened and shot sharp arrows. At such a close distance, it was really like a death.
Ultrahan, who was suppressed and unable to emerge at all, felt very regretful in his heart. Why did he have no catapult carts in his town, and his army had no city crossbows? Otherwise, how would he tolerate the turtle troops outside the town so presumptuously!
The cursing Othan didn't even remember that the catapults and the city crossbow could not be placed on such a short and narrow town wall.
Seeing that the town wall was suppressed, Consbon Town behind sent out a row of shield soldiers again. In addition to the archers, there were also a group of attacking soldiers carrying axes.
Seeing the axe soldiers, Ultrahan couldn't help but look back and forth on the walls and the axe that emitted cold light. Ultrahan's face turned green. He never thought that the siege troops without siege equipment could make him anxious.
He touched the wooden wall and sighed. How good it would be if it was made of stone. He raised his head and shouted angrily: "Clog the gate of the town for me! Never let them in!"
The soldiers of Ultrahan also knew that the situation was critical, so they hurriedly blocked stones and wood at the real door. The hill-like objects blocked the town gate. The Ultrahan soldiers breathed a sigh of relief and began to climb the town wall to prepare for the fight.
The reinforcements came to the turtle shell, the archers entered the formation and joined the suppression ranks, while the shield soldiers continued to cover the axe soldiers.
Seeing the axe soldiers leaping over the turtle shell formation, the Ultrahan soldiers panicked and, under the orders of the officers, raised stones, oil tanks and other objects to throw.
However, how could the turtle shell array ten meters away really let them go easily? Especially after adding a group of archers, there were more than one aiming. In addition, the shots of the archers behind them were shot by the archers. These Ultrahan soldiers who stood up and prepared to throw objects fell to the ground and died screaming.
The wall was suppressed, and the axe soldiers easily approached the wall. They spread out, shook their arms and swung their axes and slashed at the wall.
They did not attack the town gate, and everyone knew that the town gate was blocked, and the wooden wall was easier to break.
Hearing that the slashing was just below him, the soldiers of the Ultrahan in this direction did not look up. The one who was half-squatting on the wall directly hugged the stones, oil tanks, rolling woods, and hay just threw them out. The sound rang out, but there was no scream. Although it was strange, no one dared to stand up and look around.
At this moment, the town of Consjun outside the town kept firing arrows at the area where the axe soldiers attacked. Each round of arrow rains of thousands of arrows covered the walls of this location three times in a row. All soldiers hiding in the walls were inserted into hedgehogs, and there was absolutely no possibility of throwing objects down again.
The axe soldiers under the wall ignored the things falling on it, because the shield soldiers united the shields together to form a wooden cannon beside the town wall, blocking the objects falling above their heads for the axe soldiers.
Shield soldiers are not having a good time now. It is not much for stone oil tanks to hit the wooden shield, but the impact of the logs is too strong, and their hands are numb. If it weren't for the shaking of the canopy, if it weren't for the two shield soldiers holding a shield, if the walls of the town were not high, they would probably have been killed on the spot.
From a distance, you can see that these Cons soldiers are surrounded by stones and wood, and more of them are hay. Looking at the hay that almost covers the knees of the shield soldiers, everyone knows that a little fire is that these soldiers will be seriously injured if they are not burned to death.
The officer squatting beside him saw this scene and couldn't help but shouted angrily: "Archer! Just light the rocket and set the axe soldiers below! There are already a batch of oil tanks and hay under them. Burn them to death!"
After the officer's order was issued, all the soldiers around him were hesitating. Although the officer was extremely angry, he also knew that he would not rebel on the spot now.
Thinking of Ultrahan's kindness toward him, the officer gritted his teeth, picked up the bow and arrow, lit the rocket, then took a breath and stood up suddenly, pulling the bow and shooting arrows at the axe soldier.
