Chapter 46: The Fierce Battle Continues
The beastman infantry launched a fierce attack and soon drove all these infantrymen out of the city gate. Those who were not driven out had already been trampled to death.
The ferocity of the beastman infantry was once again revealed at this moment. The one hundred beastman infantry guarding the gate were all carefully selected by Xiao Yu, and had reached level 4, with extremely powerful strength.
A 4th-level beastman infantry can take down five or six human soldiers as long as they don't get caught in the enemy's formation.
Roar...
The beastmen's furious roar filled the entire city gate, and the surrounding soldiers saw the beastmen infantry rushing over, all of whom swarmed around to try to kill the beastmen infantry and then attack the city.
Xiao Yu beckoned with one hand and summoned the Great Magician over.
"Cast Ice Cone at the city gate." Xiao Yu said to the great magician who had just recovered his magic. This primary magic potion was indeed slow in recovering magic, and even a great magician like him needed about four or five minutes to fully recover his magic.
It's estimated that when high-grade magic potions can be produced, recovery magic will become faster.
The great magician smiled proudly and nodded, then walked to the top of the city gate tunnel, and a large piece of ice cone technique was scattered down.
A group of soldiers who had just come over to launch a fierce attack on the city gate were immediately pierced by this piece of ice, and many fell to the ground with miserable howls.
Last time, Xiao Yu had dispatched 50 Elf archers to support the Beastmen infantry as heavy firepower to help them defend the city gate together. However, this time, Xiao Yu chose to use a Great Mage to support the Beastmen infantry.
Because the scale of this time's Karu army attack is too large, all the elf archers are unable to be called over and must hold the city wall, so Xiao Yu calls over the great magician.
The Great Magician's Ice Cone Spell now basically covers an area about the size of a city gate, and once soldiers come over, the Great Magician can take them all out with one Ice Cone Spell, relieving the Orc infantry and alleviating their pressure.
"First rank, ready, fire! Second rank, ready, fire!" Xiao Yu looked at Tailande and searched for another magician, immediately directing the riflemen to start suppressing firepower.
The Musketeers' continuous shooting made it impossible for any magician to dare show their head, and anyone who did would be shot, so there was no way to chant magic.
Hmph... Ah...
Along with a scream on the city wall, a new soldier under Long Hui was directly penetrated by a strong crossbow and fell off the city wall.
The enemy's catapults, although mostly destroyed, still had four that reached the shooting range. However, catapults also require accuracy, and although their accuracy is much stronger than that of trebuchets, at such a distance and with such high city walls, they can only be roughly scattered and cannot achieve absolutely accurate shooting.
At this time, the other side's five catapults had also reached firing range, and large stones flew up from below, pounding against the city walls.
However, the catapults under the city wall were not as powerful as those on top of the wall. Moreover, the catapults used by the Karu army were all large stones, and each catapult could only launch one huge stone at a time, unlike Xiao Yu's choice of dozens of small stones, with each catapult launching seven or eight such scattered shots.
Large rocks have the advantage of large rocks, and small rocks have the advantage of small rocks. A large rock can hit a target all at once, and can even blast a hole in a city wall, but because there is only one huge stone, the accuracy is much worse.
The first few giant rocks were all projected into the air and smashed into the city.
"The first catapult group, aim at the first crossbow cart on the left side, prepare, fire." Xiao Yu chose to deal with the crossbow carts first in response to the threat of the crossbow carts and catapults.
Boulders as big as catapults can be dodged if one is quick enough, but their true power lies in intimidation. However, the same cannot be said for crossbow carts.
The accuracy of the ballista is much higher than that of the catapult, and a powerful ballista can even take out a level 3 ice shield mage in one shot.
This was absolutely not what Xiao Yu wanted to see, so he had to take out the crossbow cart first before dealing with the catapult.
Four consecutive volleys, with a wide range of covering fire, accurately took out four scattered catapults. Although the catapults also fired several times, causing some damage to the city head, fortunately, it did not cause too much damage.
A beastman infantry was pierced through the chest by a powerful crossbow bolt, but still stood upright, swinging his large axe to continue fighting.
Xiao Yu immediately called two beastmen to pull the guy down, pulled out the crossbow bolt, and poured healing potion into the wound. After a period of accumulation, Xiao Yu had also accumulated a lot of healing potions, but in this big battle, the consumption rate of healing potions was also very fast.
Xiao Yu's order was not to be stingy with the medicine, holding on to life was the most important thing, so the use of the medicine was also very extravagant.
After the four scorpion carts were destroyed, Xiao Yu ordered the ten catapults and four blade carts on the city wall to attack Carrot's catapults.
The massive scattering once again took effect, and Karu's catapults were all destroyed in no time.
They've taken out the enemy's catapults and ballistae, so all that's left are the mages and warriors. But these two threats are much smaller, the only threat is actually their numbers.
The number of people on the other side is still much more than theirs.
The battle at the city gate was extremely fierce, with Karu's soldiers charging forward time and again, each time thinking they could break through the defense of just over a hundred beastman infantrymen. However, under Grom's leadership, these men were repeatedly repelled, either retreating in defeat or falling to become ghosts beneath the blade.
The heavy infantry also wore thick armor at this time, working with the light infantry to try and break through the city gate's defenses. Their thick armor made it clearly impossible for them to climb the city walls, so they could only choose the city gate as their battlefield to launch an attack.
Although the beastman's greataxe is very sharp, it is still quite difficult to cut through the heavy infantry's armor with one blow.
The power of the beastman's big axe chopping, can't keep up with the power of the blade car, but it doesn't matter, Xiao Yu taught them a special method to deal with this heavy infantry.
Xiao Yu's method was to hold the axe horizontally and slap it hard against the heavy infantryman's head, even if he was wearing a steel helmet. If he were slapped like that by an Orc's strength, he would definitely get a concussion.
If the heavy infantry were to use shields to block the beastmen's head-butting, Xiao Yu told them another method. At this time, they would use the beastmen's large feet to directly kick the heavy infantry's knees.
Knees are joints, protection is not strong, although there are knee pads, but the big toes of the orc infantry can still crush the knees of heavy infantry.
It turned out that Xiao Yu's method of dealing with heavy infantry was very feasible. The beastmen relied on their powerful strength and sturdy physique, slapping their heads and kicking their knees, making it easier to deal with than light infantry.
Light infantry can still dodge and weave against beastman infantry, but heavy infantry with their thick armor can't dodge at all, they can only choose to take the hit head-on, so they can only suffer a tragic fate.
Heavy infantry are a powerful force everywhere, if they were ordinary human soldiers, they would have no way to break through their defenses, all they need is shield striking and chopping, it's easy to kill ordinary human soldiers, but it doesn't work at all on beastman soldiers.
Buzz buzz buzz......
A burst of golden light fell one after another, and Xiao Yu was caught off guard. The Great Magician had already reached level 9, and Xiao Yu directly upgraded the water element for the Great Magician.
In an instant, two water elements appeared beside the great magician, helping him defeat the Karus soldiers below.
Jian Sheng has also reached level 11 due to the continuous killing during this period, and Xiao Yu chose to upgrade Jian Sheng's Whirlwind Slash again.
A 2nd-level Whirlwind Slash has a power of 100%, far surpassing the 50%.
Whoosh... whoosh... whoosh...
Jian Sheng unleashed the 2nd level of Whirlwind Slash, with a range that was now much larger than before. His entire body seemed to be surrounded by a layer of intense Dou Qi, like a harvester continuously reaping lives.
Thailand also reached level 11, Xiao Yu gave her another strong strike halo. Now on this battlefield, the effect of the strong strike halo is too great, because it's not just her own strength that's being boosted, but the entire long-range unit's strength.
