Ordinary fantasy adventure in Faerûn

Chapter 325 Siege
At this time, the devil's artillery no longer had the power of the past, and the originally uniform shooting began to become extremely sparse. Except for the magic tower's offensive, which was still fierce, almost all fortresses and the walls around the fortress began to show obvious lack of firepower.

The devil's side has been trying their best to restore their invincible artillery battle array as soon as possible, but it is a pity that the devil's side does not intend to give them this opportunity.

"Seize this opportunity!!!"

The wolf-snake demon once again issued an order to the demon army. Under his command, thousands of minotaurs rushed towards the iron wall in front of them. Obviously, the wolf-snake demon as the commander had a lot of experience in fighting demons. , can be so proficient in seeing through the arms rotation of the devil's side, this guy has definitely commanded more than one bloody battle in the abyss.

After realizing this, Nohir's brows jumped sharply. The stronger the devil's side is now, the greater the pressure it puts on the devil, and the more likely he is to sneak in. The devil's side has such an experienced commander. , this is the best thing for him.

Nohill continued to focus all his attention on the battlefield below. Such a fierce battlefield was the opportunity he had been waiting for. Once the devil's defense was broken even a little bit, he could directly take advantage of the chaos. They rushed into the fortress due to the situation, and then directly lurked and disguised themselves.

At this time, one of the magic towers above the Devil's Legion Fortress has begun to condense energy. The strong energy fluctuations have gathered in just a few seconds. It will plow through the Devil's legion in the next moment. A red line of death was drawn, but at this moment, the Balor Fire Demon, who had been driving away low-level devils from behind and had never officially taken action, finally took action.

Balor Balrog quickly flew towards the magic crystal floating above the barrier. Upon detecting the dangerous creature, the crystal magic energy cannon instantly turned its attack target. A frost ray shot fiercely at Balor Balrog, but was easily blocked by it. He dodged, and after dodging the attack, he did not stop for a moment, and continued to fly towards the crystal cannon at the fastest speed.

When he was close enough to the crystal magic cannon, the Balor Balrog suddenly raised the giant decapitating sword in his right hand, and slashed hard at the wall next to the magic cannon.

This blow containing infinite power directly broke through the magic defense around the mana cannon. The fire whip of his left hand was thrown out directly, entangled with the crystal, and then with a sudden pull, the whole crystal exploded. Come, and finally shatter into fragments of different sizes accompanied by colorful magic fluctuations.

They came under the city wall. This was a very critical move, because as long as they came under the city wall, the demons no longer had to worry too much about the threat of artillery. It didn't matter even if the devils replenished their ammunition.

A large number of tauren seized this opportunity and gap. They charged forward quickly, and finally crossed the dead line drawn by artillery and magic cannons.

As long as they come under the city wall, the fire suppression they face will be reduced to the greatest extent, but this does not mean that the devils can sit back and relax. The devils must have more design flaws in this defense than those cannon fodder devils. It became clearer that they had deployed targeted defensive measures as a matter of course.

The devil's side densely distributes artillery in this 300-meter-high iron wall. This design makes its concentrated attack extremely powerful. Often a single salvo can directly destroy a large area of ​​targets, but because of this In this way, artillery located at high altitudes will inevitably be unable to hit the lower part of the city wall, which is a blind spot in the design.

The direction of the demons' attack was the area on the far right among the four fortresses. This area was also the weak defensive area that first suffered from insufficient firepower. With the successful attack of Balor Balrog, the fire protection of the right wall was It was directly reduced to the most vulnerable location in the entire battlefield.

The two bottom layers of artillery are special equipment that can be extended out of the battlements to freely adjust the shooting angle. They can directly pose a threat to the demons below. They also stationed a large number of defenders in the holes in the bottom wall.

Those who can be stationed here are the elites among the devils, and are extremely good at team fighting. They place specially lengthened 12-meter giant spears in the holes that have been reserved in advance, and form a group of 3 to 4 devils. The devil is responsible for one such spear.

And this kind of spears are also very densely arranged. In the 20-meter-high battlements below, there will be such a large killing weapon almost every five meters left and right, and every three meters up and down. Whenever a demon approaches the city wall, they will They would grab the handle reserved on the spear together, and then violently push the long steel dragon outward. "prick!!!"

Following an order, thousands of steel spears thrust out at the same instant, and the unlucky ones closest to the city wall were pierced directly in just an instant.

Such a uniform attack is full of cruel beauty. These giant iron spears make the entire fortress seem to have turned into a whole steel hedgehog.

Normally, the presence of these spearmen alone would be enough to successfully buy time to reload the artillery. After all, they were protected by steel city walls and could output as much as they wanted in a quite comfortable state.

Except for the holes reserved for artillery and spears in advance, the entire city wall below does not have any extra weak points, not even a door leading directly to the outside world.

This design is all to prevent the demons from directly using all their strength in the early stage to break through the gate and break into the fortress.

In the early stages of the bloody battle, the demons were very tenacious in their momentum. This kind of thing has not happened in previous battles. In order to prevent this from happening, the demons have since then specially raised the gate into the fortress. 20 meters.

If you want to enter through the main entrance, unless you can fly, you can only rely on the defenders inside to lower the suspension bridge. Now there are only two ways in front of these demons.

Either they can climb to a height of 20 meters by stepping on enough corpses, and then directly break through the devil's door with their numerical advantage under various attacks, or they can simply rely on their own strength to stop climbing. , but directly and brutally dismantled the city wall in front of them.

The demons chose the second path. There was no time for them to slowly break through the unknown door. Encouraged by the wolf snake demon, these minotaurs burst out with all their strength, and they were able to Called crazy animality.

All the tauren are so fearless of death, even if the tauren in front of them are pierced by a series of spears, and large numbers of demons fall down like slaughtered pigs and dogs, but such tragic casualties But it will not arouse the fear of the tauren behind at all. They will only grab these weapons before the spears are retracted, and try to use all their strength to destroy them.

But it is a pity that although the Minotaurs are very powerful, because of the unique design of several scattered handles on the back of this weapon, it is difficult for them to directly pull the spear out of the city wall, and it is almost impossible for them to pull the spear out of the city wall in a short time. This kind of spear was completely destroyed within a short time, but even so, the large number of tauren on the battlefield bought enough time for the siege troops with their fearless style.

A siege force composed of more than 20 giant bull demons has arrived under the city wall. These giant bull demons are at least four meters tall and three meters wide. Once they get close to the city wall, they will lower their heads and attack fiercely. Hit the city wall.

The giant bull demon's horns are strong enough to penetrate steel and can cause damage to the city wall itself. Its power is enough to break mountains and crack rocks, which ensures that their approach is by no means a useless effort.

The Tauren's desperate cover created a comfortable output environment for these giant beasts. If that small piece of city wall was really hit by these 20 or so giant beasts in turn, Nohir was sure that it would be directly broken open by a few meters. A big hole measuring meter long and wide!
