i have a super island

Chapter 946 Enemy on all sides
It was originally a situation where the enemy was in the dark and we were in the clear, but now there was still a thick fog on the battlefield, which made the defenders fall into an extremely passive state.

In the absence of sight, those ordinary mermen hiding in the dense fog could not be seen at all, only those fighting mermen whose heads were like hills could vaguely see their shadows.

Compared with ordinary merman and male merman, fighting merman is the most dangerous existence.

If this thing rushed to the city wall and slammed it hard, the city wall would have to be knocked out of a big hole.

In order to prevent these fighting mermen from approaching the city wall, the soldiers could only keep their eyes wide open, trying their best to see clearly which direction the fighting mermen were coming from.

Once a fighting merman is found approaching, the cannons on the city wall will all turn their muzzles and shoot wildly at the fighting merman in the thick fog, and then the body of the fighting merman will collapse.

Facts have proved that even fighting mermaids are flesh and blood, as long as the firepower is strong enough, they still have to die.

……

A fierce blocking battle was going on on the western city wall, with the continuous sound of artillery and muskets, and every round of shelling and every salvo of muskets could kill a large number of mermen.

At the same time, several other city walls were also attacked by sharks.

After these mermen came out of the water, they first attacked the western city wall with all their strength. Later, they found that the firepower of the western city wall was too fierce, so they began to detour from the north and south directions, and attacked the north and south city walls with lighter firepower.

Fortunately, before the start of the war, Fang Fang ordered people to block the two city gates tightly with merman corpses, so it was impossible for those merman to enter the city through the gates for a while.

On the city wall, Blake stared at the ferocious monsters fiercely, and waved his hand, "Let go!"

Only the sound of bowstrings snapping at the top of the city was heard, and crossbow arrows with thick trunks flew out, shooting through the fighting mermaids who were rushing to the front.

"Prepare the bow and arrow, let it go!"

While the crossbow was being reloaded, the soldiers with bows and arrows began to shoot randomly at the sharks below the city wall.

The mermen don't have shields, so it's hard to defend against the arrows shot from top to bottom. For a while, many mermen were hit by arrows and fell to the ground, and then they were run over by their companions behind them, crushing their bodies into the sand.

There are more than [-] soldiers from all nations on each wall. With so many soldiers shooting in volley, it is not an exaggeration to describe the scene as arrows raining down.

Compared with the long attack interval of muskets, the attack interval of bow and arrow is much shorter.

The musket needs to be filled with gunpowder, then poured into the projectile, and the barrel needs to be cooled after it gets hot, while the bow and arrow can be used immediately.

If the two sides lined up to shoot at each other, bows and arrows are definitely not the opponents of muskets, but under the specific conditions of defending the city, and facing sharks who can't use weapons, the performance of bows and arrows is really no worse than muskets .

Soon the mermen who attacked the east wall were all killed, and then the mermen who attacked the north and south walls were also repelled.

However, the situation on the west wall is not very optimistic, because this is the main battlefield where the mermen land, and nearly half of the mermen attack from here, and there is the problem of the shooting interval of the muskets mentioned before, which is serious. The firing frequency of these English soldiers was limited.

"No, there are more and more sharks below, you have to find a way!"

The Duke of York came to Fang Fang with a very serious expression on his face. He had seen all the situation on the battlefield, and knew that if this continued, the western city wall would not be able to withstand it.

Fang Fang also knew that the situation was critical, so he had to make adjustments in the troops defending the city. He called the messenger and ordered: "Send the order, and send a hundred archers from the east wall! Fifty each from the south wall and north wall." Archers come here!"

"Yes!"

Several messengers immediately split up and acted separately, Fang Fang returned to the wall again, drew the bow and arrow in his hand, and shot at the sharks who tried to get close to the city wall.

About 10 minutes later, soldiers transferred from the other three walls had arrived at the west wall.

"Leave it to my soldiers to stop those ordinary mermen, and leave your artillery to those big guys!" Fang Fang said to the Duke of York.

"My artillery will blast all those big guys who try to get close to them into scum!" The Duke of York's face was full of murderous looks.

Under the joint command of the leaders of both sides, a powerful counterattack force was formed on the city wall.

Archers are better at dealing with ordinary mermen, and can kill them at a faster speed.

The English soldiers put away their muskets and turned to operate the cannons. A few people were in charge of one cannon and used all the dozens of cannons on the city wall.

The flames on the city wall shot up to the sky, and there was a lot of killing sounds, and the people in the city were not idle.

The smelter is brightly lit, and Lu Fengmei is leading the workers to burn molten iron, which is poured into molds to make arrowheads.

The newly produced arrows were assembled immediately after cooling down, and bundles of brand new arrows were sent to the city wall to become weapons in the hands of the soldiers.

……

In the tent, Wallace sat up rubbing his neck.

"Damn it!"

He cursed bitterly at James who knocked him out, and wanted to touch the musket beside him, but found that the musket was gone.

At this moment, the man's heart was completely out of balance. He didn't expect that his favorite fiancee would betray him. That feeling made his life worse than death. He wished he could kill Jenny and that wild man right away.

"That's right, where is Jenny, where did that shameless woman go?"

Wallace found that Jenny was no longer in the tent, and Dang even wanted to find her whereabouts.

Before stepping out of the tent, he took a rapier in his hand, determined to find Jenny and James for revenge.

When he walked out of the tent, he couldn't help being stunned by the scene in front of him. All the natives on the island were running back and forth, constantly transporting combat supplies to the city wall, and the city was in chaos.

Just two steps out, a reckless guy bumped into Wallace's body, knocking Wallace into a stagger.

Wallace grabbed the man by the collar and took a closer look at his father's exclusive doctor, Pirro, "Dr. Pirro, what are you doing?"

"me……"

Dr. Piro had already been terrified by the scene outside the city. He didn't want to stay in this city and wait to die. However, the gates to the north and south of the city were blocked, and there was no other way to escape from the city. I can only scurry around the city like a headless chicken in a hurry.

Faced with Wallace's questioning, Piro couldn't say that he wanted to run away, he hesitated for a long time, and suddenly said: "It's the sharks, the sharks are coming!"

Hearing that the sharks were attacking the city, and seeing the chaos in the city, Wallace suddenly felt that this was an excellent opportunity. He wanted to take advantage of the chaos to kill Jenny who had betrayed him, and make her pay for the betrayal.

"Did you see Jenny?"

"Jenny, Jenny...she seems to be in the infirmary."
