Chapter 40 Catapults

Updated: 2012-04-02

Xiao Yu's small plan caused Karu's army to be killed in an instant, which made Karu's face gloomy as if water was about to drip out of it.

With an army of 20,000, he thought it would be easy to take down the Lion King, but now he has suffered such a significant loss.

This Xiao Yu is really too despicable and shameless.

"Bandao, get on me and suppress those archers." Originally, according to the plan, the crossbow would have to wait for a while before getting on, but the insults and major losses caused by Xiao Yu to Karu made him angry and put the crossbow into the battle sequence in advance.

The soldiers who operated the crossbow chariot received the order and immediately pushed the crossbow chariot and headed under the city wall. When they were about to reach the attack distance, they began to attack.

Although the crossbow cart is fighting from the city to the city, its powerful power is no shorter than the attack distance of the arrows shot from the city.

This is just an ordinary crossbow cart. If it is some crossbow carts that are blessed by magic, and with magical annihilation arrows, the range it reaches will be even more terrifying and powerful.

Xiao Yu watched Karu's crossbow cart start moving forward on the city wall, and knew what Karu had thought. He waved his hand and immediately adjusted the direction of the ten catapults and aimed at the four crossbow carts distributed together.

"Prepare, let it go." Xiao Yu personally directed and issued an order.

Suddenly, hundreds of rocks flew down from the city in the sky, like meteors falling from the sky, and smashed directly at the four crossbows over there in an extremely dense formation.

Buzzing...

The sound of the rocks flying in the sky was filled with a terrifying power, as if countless locusts were rushing towards me.

"What is that?" The soldier operating the crossbow chariot looked up at the stones all over the sky, and was a little dazed, not yet able to react to what was going on.

By the time they realized it, the stones had reached their heads, and because they were too densely distributed, they had no place to hide if they wanted to dodge.

Xiao Yu's use of this long-range heavy weapon is definitely different from Karu's troops. Karu's crossbows are light infantry distributed behind several square formations to help the siege to suppress the archers on the city, so that they can successfully climb to the city.

The purpose of Xiao Yu using the catapult is to use large-scale concentrated heavy firepower to cause absolute suppression and fatal damage to the opponent.

This is the different thoughts of Xiao Yu's previous life and people in this cold weapon era.

Only when heavy weapons are used together can they generate huge power and suppress and devastating blows on the other side.

Xiao Yu naturally saw more than 20 crossbow chariots on the other side, and he naturally knew that if these crossbow chariots were within range, it would cause huge damage to the elves archers on the city.

These elves archers are all his treasures. They have finally been trained to level 3, and Xiao Yu will be heartbroken even if he dies.

Therefore, Xiao Yu naturally had to destroy these heavy weapons before they entered the range.

This is like in that era when I saw the opponent having heavy firepower of mortars, I had to kill all the opponent's mortars first, so that I could gain a better advantage than the opponent.

In this case, Xiao Yu could hit them, but they could not pose a threat to Xiao Yu's troops.

When two armies intersect, they must kill the other party's heavy firepower first. This was also common sense in the past when the hot weapons era.

Xiao Yu has tested the power of the catapult car and is very satisfied with the distance and power. He has absolute confidence that on the top of the city, these catapult car can completely suppress any powerful siege equipment brought by Kalu.

Originally, there were not many machines in this era that could be better than the beast tribe's catapult car, and Xiao Yu and the others occupied a high place, so the delivery distance was definitely much stronger than the other party.

Therefore, before the opponent launches an attack, they can completely kill the opponent in their cradles.

Now, the only problem that troubles the catapult car is the accuracy issue. The long-range weapons of this era are not as accurate as Xiao Yu's era. If Xiao Yu had ten meters of the catapult car, it would be considered accurate.

Therefore, Xiao Yu directly covered up the problem of accuracy with a large-scale fire-focused attack. If a catapult was shooting at a crossbow, he might not be able to knock out a catapult for several consecutive times.

But ten catapults were fired at one place together, and each catapult was placed with seven or eight thirty or forty kilograms of stones, and a total of nearly one hundred stones were covered in densely.

No matter how large the error is, under such intensive attacks, there are always stones that can hit the target and kill the opponent's crossbow.

Sure enough, the huge power formed by the stones weighing thirty or forty kilograms and the free fall movement of more than twenty meters high not only smashed the skeletons of the crossbows directly, but also turned all the soldiers controlled nearby into meat paste.

The four crossbow chariots together were all smashed into pieces.

"Well, I'm a good match. These ten catapults were not bought in vain. Although the price is a bit expensive, it's definitely a good deal."

Xiao Yu narrowed his eyes and was very satisfied with the first use of this catapult.

In just a short time, in less than ten seconds, the slaves and orcs of the Black Iron Clan had filled the catapult carts again and could launch a second attack.

The orcs' hard worker was also transferred by Xiao Yu to participate in the defensive battle. At the beginning, Xiao Yu wanted to use the loopholes to make the orcs' hard worker a warrior. After all, although they are not as strong as the Beast soldiers, at least their physical advantages are also there, and ordinary soldiers should not be their opponents.

But after testing their combat abilities, Xiao Yu gave up this idea directly. It was as if the elf archers could not improve their melee ability. Orcs were very good at working hard and could endure hardships, but letting them fight was really hard-working. Adou was really unbearable, and he couldn't help him in any way.

It seems that they are tall and big, but any elite human soldier can easily kill them. There is no way, Xiao Yu can only pull them up as laborers when he is in such logistics assistance.

Although they can't fight, moving stones, carrying catapults, etc. is still very useful. They are very strong and have a strong body. A few orcs can carry the catapults away by hard work, saving the amount of orc infantry.

"Switch the target, prepare, and let it go." Xiao Yu shouted loudly again.

Buzzing...

The stones in the sky fell down again, like countless meteorites landed, and the other party’s five crossbows were smashed directly, turning into a pile of firewood.

A series of catapults and fire attacks directly shocked Karu's army. They were all shocked to think that Xiao Yu had a high-level magician who could release large-scale spells such as "meteorites falling from the sky".

This must be done by a magician of level 5 or even level 6.

The operator of the crossbow cart saw the power of Xiao Yu's powerful catapult, and did not dare to go forward again. He quickly wanted to retreat, but how could Xiao Yu let it go easily? He continued to command ten catapults to carry out three fire-raising attacks, killing Karu's six catapults again.

Karu's more than 20 crossbows are now only a dozen, and half of them are lost.

"What are they? Do they have a sixth-level magician?" Karu looked at the stones falling all over the sky, and instantly smashed several crossbows into pieces, and his eyes were almost protruding out in shock.

At this time, although there was no help from the crossbow chariot, many light infantry had already rushed to the city, boarded the ladder, and began to attack the city.

With the promise that Karu was the first to climb to the city to reward him, these infantry still climbed up the city walls desperately in the rain of arrows.

Although they had just seen something whizzing past the city, they didn't have time to think too much in the chaotic battlefield. They could only block the arrows, move forward quickly, and climb up the city wall.

One hundred human infantry held shields in front of them to guard against the crossbowmen below the attack, and the orc infantry followed closely behind. They were full of expectations for the arrival of Karu's soldiers.

At the same time, Karu's heavy infantry were gradually approaching the open city gate, and the elves' bows and arrows were directly aimed at them from the beginning.

Xiao Yu knew that bows and arrows were purely wasting feather arrows against heavy infantry, so he ordered all elves archers to shoot only light infantry, while heavy infantry allowed them to come.

"Prepare to meet the enemy." Long Hui shouted loudly as he looked at the Carru soldiers who were about to climb up the wall.

……………………

The third update is here. I went out today. I just came back. When I saw everyone’s rewards and red tickets, Xiaosa was very grateful and relieved. Although it was still very different from some great masters, it was obvious that many people like Xiaosa’s works, so Xiaosa could only repay everyone in a better state and update them more.
Chapter completed!
