The mighty lord of online games

Chapter 458

At night, the enemy was still attacking, and Zhang Qiang had already retreated. The Earl of Sweden who took his place defending the city, the enemy attacked the city continuously overnight, and did not give the Vikia soldiers in the city a chance to breathe.

When Zhang Qiang was defending the city, the enemy rushed to the city wall for about two hours. Zhang Qiang led the general guards to fight the fire and knocked down the enemy's bad city wall.

Afterwards, the enemy invested more and more troops, wave after wave, even though they died under the city wall, they still did not give up their attack.

As soon as this wave of enemies started to climb the city wall, another wave of enemies had already assembled and waited a mile away.

As soon as the enemy rushed up the city wall, another wave of people had already started holding torches and pushing siege vehicles, choosing a place and continuing to attack.

The fighting has continued to the east and west gates.

It is that the enemy at the south gate has not yet launched an attack, but there are still many enemies at the south gate. According to the information returned by Polcha's reconnaissance, there are about 2000 enemies at the south gate.

Zhang Qiang slept for about three hours and couldn't fall asleep.

The enemy's nasty catapults started throwing stones into the castle again. Many places were set ablaze by the flaming stones. Those that were set alight were the servants' thatched houses or wooden houses, Threzk The fort, like a place that never sleeps, is full of flames, thick smoke, firefighting sounds, shouts, screams, and shouts, one after another.

Lesarit ran over, "My lord, Earl Siwa has dispatched soldiers from the south gate to guard the north gate,"

Zhang Qiang looked up at him, "Is Earl Siwa directing the defense now?"

Lesarite said: "Yes, my lord, you said that the guarding power of the south gate must not be weakened, so I have been paying attention to this matter. As soon as Earl Siwa's order came down, I came to report to you."

"Let our people go up, and we must not leave the South Gate empty." Zhang Qiang turned his head and said to Lesarit.

Lesarit said with some embarrassment: "Master Lord, this is not good, our people just rested for two hours, and in the previous battle, our people suffered heavy losses, 160 of the 130 people just added died. , Our troops killed a total of 300 people during the four-hour guard, more than 800 people, and now it has become less than 500 people."

"It has to be blocked. We can't let the enemy successfully attack the south gate. Then everyone will be finished. If I am captured, no matter how many soldiers I have in my army, they will still be captured by others. It's better to die."

Lesarit finally led the soldiers to join the defense of the south gate.

Zhang Qiang constantly received battle reports, "The enemy also suffered heavy losses in the siege overnight. At least 30 trebuchets were destroyed, 30 bed crossbows were destroyed, more than 3000 soldiers were killed, and more than 50 siege towers and siege ladders were destroyed. "

One's own losses: "1100 soldiers were killed or injured, 18 trebuchets were destroyed, 30 bed crossbows were destroyed, all the rolling logs and stones were thrown away, the boiling water was no longer available, the enemy repeatedly rushed to the top of the wall, the enemy's siege towers and The siege ladders were all over the city walls, and it was impossible to clean them up, and the enemy soldiers rushed up continuously, and the fighting continued."

Zhang Qiang stood up, walked out of the castle hall, and wandered around the castle hall.

Soon, I came to the place where the craftsman was building the defensive equipment, and I saw Yatiman muttering something to the general craftsmen.

I walked over and saw them discussing something with a machine that looked like a trolley.

"What is this?" Zhang Qiang asked Yatiman.

Yatiman replied: "This is a defensive device called a simen knife car written in the principle of mechanics. There is a sharp blade in the front and a movable wooden board with holes in the back. Soldiers can shoot arrows while hiding behind. Come here, the first thing you have to face is the sharp blades in front. These blades can catch the enemies approaching at high speed by surprise. When they collide, they will be hung on the knives. Moreover, these knives can be launched at a certain time to hurt the enemy. A complete shelf can block the enemy's way forward and create obstacles for the enemy."

The craftsman on the side said: "My lord, we need manpower to complete the construction of such equipment. He can make up for the lack of troops. Only two soldiers can operate him. One is pushing, and the other is squatting behind the cart with a crossbow. , You can see that there is an auxiliary hoe underneath, which can be fixed on the ground to prevent the enemy from hitting it hard and destroying the knife cart."

Zhang Qiang wandered around the knife cart, and then said to the craftsman on the side: "Why don't you open a few more holes, and then arrange a few rows of crossbow arrows on it, the crossbow arrows can be set by the soldiers, anyway, his role is to shoot ahead , there is no need for an angle, no need to calculate the enemy's movement speed, the enemy always runs towards the only direction, must pass this place, you can also add a few knife carts with a pitching device, which can shoot down and climb The enemy on the ladder can also block the enemy rushing from the ladder on the siege ladder or the siege tower."

The craftsman's eyes lit up, staring at Zhang Qiang, as if seeing an alien, Zhang Qiang heard Yatiman slap his head vigorously after a while, "Master, what you said is really good."

Zhang Qiang said to the craftsman on the opposite side, "Can it be realized?"

The craftsman nodded his head like a chicken pecking at the rice, "Yes, yes, my lord, I found that you are the most advanced craftsman. I have been a craftsman for so many years, and I haven't thought of this. I just made it according to the mechanical drawings of the predecessors. How to make it better, never said to add something of your own on top of that, you inspired me today."

Zhang Qiang turned around and said to Yatiman: "Did you hear that? You have to learn to think by yourself in the future, and add some things of your own. No, let's make something first to verify our ideas."

Yatiman said embarrassingly: "My lord, my main business is engineering construction, not mechanical manufacturing. I am more suitable for building towers, or building walls, and some other buildings. I think this is why I and a junior Francois the craftsman, you are using me as a carpenter, but I am not a carpenter, I am a construction engineer."

Zhang Qiang was speechless, "Then I'd like to see what good buildings you can build for me, but before that, you have to help this master craftsman to build these corkscrews according to what I just said. .”

"It's my lord. Before I want to do other things, I will complete the task you gave me." Yatiman said.

Zhang Qiang turned around and walked to other places. Before leaving, Zhang Qiang said to Artiman: "François is already an intermediate craftsman. He is indeed a qualified craftsman, but you are not a qualified craftsman. Maybe you Is a qualified junior engineer."

The master craftsman brought by Rod Laboye smiled and said: "That's right, I think craftsmen should be divided into carpenters, blacksmiths, engineers, mechanics and other sub-classes, but their collective name is still craftsmen, which is not bad. "

Zhang Qiang said to the craftsman, "What's your name?"

The craftsman said with a smile: "Sebastian. Dear lord, master craftsman of Vikia, Sebastian, I am actually a Swadian."
