Chapter 1122, burning the city walls
Seeing that there were many werewolf warriors not far away, pushing a cart to transport stone bullets to werewolf warriors near the city wall, Bian Jun's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
Although the stones thrown by the werewolf warriors are not very accurate, they cannot withstand the stones are cheaper. There are many nearby mountains and streams. In addition to the need to put in some physical strength, they are basically a business without any money.
On their side, whether it is a strong bow or a strong crossbow, they all have strict requirements on the holder and arrowhead.
The crossbowman is better, after all, the powerful crossbow relies more on mechanical structure.
After those players holding strong bows pulled the bow five or six times in a short period of time, their physical strength was obviously lost, and many players were almost unable to lift their arms.
Now the Northern Expedition Alliance players behind the city wall not only need to find ways to attack those enemies who are trying to climb up, but also always pay attention to dodging and flying everywhere.
They must always maintain a high concentration, otherwise they may be injured by a catapult from where they fly.
Although the lethality of the casting stone is not as good as a crossbow, it brings huge psychological pressure to the players of the Northern Expedition Alliance on the top of the city.
Whenever players see someone around them being thrown into blood, their hearts will tremble involuntarily.
It’s not that they are timid and afraid of death, but that the bloody scene is so terrifying with screams.
Fortunately, those players whose head and face were injured quickly chose to commit suicide on the spot, otherwise the continuous screams of the players could directly destroy the psychological defenses of other players.
The players who were injured and unable to bear the pain chose to commit suicide on the spot, but they were completely relieved, but as they committed suicide one after another, the defensive pressure on the city suddenly increased.
Faced with the fierce attack of the enemy, Bian Jun now did not dare to let his players find cover to dodge.
Because the city wall was too low, taking advantage of their chance to squat down and dodge, the werewolf warriors under the city wall could immediately follow the wooden ladder to cross the city wall.
Once more werewolf warriors crossing the city walls have risen and they have a firm foothold on the city walls, Luqiao Town will be in danger.
With such a low city wall, the enemy only needs to break through a section of the city wall and then pour in along the city wall, and the entire section of the city wall will completely lose its function.
Because strictly speaking, Luqiao Town cannot be regarded as a real city at all. At most, it is a huge yard and an earthen wall outside the yard.
So if you want to stick to the complete formation of the Colorful Bridge, Bian Jun and others must guard the entire six-kilometer-long earth wall outside Luqiao Town.
Although Bian Jun had 30,000 elite Northern Expedition Alliance players under his command, it was still very difficult to use 30,000 people to defend the low six-kilometer city wall.
Six kilometers are six thousand meters. When defending, one person stands at every interval of one meter, and six kilometers are six thousand people.
30,000 divided by 6,000 equals five, which means that only five players act as substitutes for each meter of defense.
This werewolf army in the Dashi Kingdom chose to launch an attack on the entire city wall at the same time.
Relying on the advantage of large populations, the defenders of Luqiao Town did not dare to gather together easily. In other words, the more than 30,000 people under the Bian Army are now evenly distributed on the six-kilometer city wall.
Originally, they had no pressure to defend with the advantages of having long-handed weapons and crossbows, but as the werewolf warriors under the city wall also had the ability to attack "long-range" the attack, their advantage immediately became extremely weak.
Although the lethality of those cheap stones is simply not the same as the crossbows in the hands of players, there are more werewolf warriors under the city wall shot dead and injured by the crossbows in the hands of players.
But unfortunately, there were more werewolf warriors outside Luqiao Town than them, and most of the injured players on their side chose to commit suicide on the spot in unbearable pain.
So as the battle continued, the city walls in many areas gradually became sparse, and the situation became increasingly unfavorable to them.
"I passed our military order and immediately prepared to implement the plan to burn the city wall. Except for the players responsible for setting fire, everyone else stood on the city wall for me until I died in battle."
Seeing that they would continue to be in such a stalemate, they didn't even have enough people to set fire for a while. After several struggles, Bian Jun finally issued a new order cruelly.
Whenever you encounter a war, you will be defeated before you can win.
This is an attitude of many people with great wisdom to consider things.
Anyone of this type of people has very meticulous thinking and rarely make mistakes that should not be made.
Although not everyone has great wisdom, they have mastered various advanced experiences summarized by their predecessors. Therefore, when many players make some plans, they like to first consider what will happen if they fail, and then prepare for various preventions.
The reason why Sun Junbo is deeply trusted and valued by Lu Chenguang is not that his abilities are much higher than other players, but that he has always been cautious in his work and rarely makes mistakes that he shouldn't have made.
It is precisely because of this advantage that he can stand out in the talented Sun and Moon Sect.
Crossing the river from Luqiao Town this time was a big test for the Northern Expedition Alliance.
Considering that Chu Tianba deliberately arranged them in Luqiao Town, where the city wall was low, he had no good intentions, and after Sun Junbo could not hide the Colorful Bridge, he thought of the possibility that Luqiao Town would be lost.
In order to delay time as much as possible and wait for the complete formation of the Colorful Bridge, Sun Junbo sent someone to collect a large amount of various animal oil and dry firewood overnight, and then sent it directly to the shore of Luqiao Town.
After receiving the dry firewood and animal grease sent by Sun Junbo, Bian Jun asked his players to place all the dry firewood and animal grease under the wooden platform behind the city wall.
The city wall of Luqiao Town is very special. It consists of two parts: earth wall and a wooden platform next to the earth wall.
When defending, all the players of the Northern Expedition Alliance stood on a wooden platform of 1.5 meters high. The wooden platform, which was as long as six kilometers long as the earth wall, was equivalent to a road on the city wall.
The wooden road is built with solid wood, which is itself a flammable substance.
If the wooden platform is filled with tincture and dry firewood, once the fire starts, the six-kilometer-long city wall will immediately fall into the sea of fire.
At that time, not only will the people on the wooden platform be buried in the sea of fire, but the entire Luqiao Town will immediately become a forbidden place until the flames are completely extinguished.
In order to allow this long fire dragon to burn longer, Sun Junbo collected almost all the nearby fish oil.
Near Nanyang Lake and Dushan Lake, the nearby villages can be short of anything, but only fish oil is available.
A large amount of fish oil combined with a massive amount of firewood, and a wooden platform that is solid wood, once the fire is burned, it will definitely not be extinguished in a short period of time.
In addition to fish oil and firewood, Sun Junbo also sent a lot of charcoal to Bian Jun at the last moment, and now the charcoal has been placed under the wooden table.
So once this fire is released, unless God suddenly rainstorm, the wolf Wujian and others outside will have to sigh.
It is precisely because of such complete preparation that Bian Jun dared to nod and admit it directly after being exposed, otherwise he would have to make some excuses.
Because Wolf Wubian had no evidence to prove that they were not from the Mahayana Buddha Kingdom, he most likely would not dare to take action immediately.
Although there is a plan to lock down the city in the sea of fire, Bian Jun will not easily launch this plan unless it is absolutely necessary.
Because the teleportation arrays in the entire Henan and Hubei region have all failed, their lives are more precious now, and once they die in battle, it will be difficult to return here in a short time.
When the battle began to gradually tilt towards the werewolf, Bian Jun knew in his heart that he might be in trouble today.
With the responsibility of guarding Luqiao Town, Bian Jun could not abandon his brothers who followed him and escape alone. He had to live and die with his brothers. Only in this way can the players under his command be willing to follow him all the time.
Moreover, there were people in the rear who were responsible. Even if he escaped, he would not have anything to do. So after arranging people to prepare to implement the plan to burn the city wall, he was ready to die on the city wall.
However, since their lives are relatively precious now and cannot be easily lost, Bian Jun is preparing to bring a group of werewolf warriors from the Dashi Kingdom to bury them.
When the players who stay on the wooden platform can't resist the enemy's attack for a while, they will put the enemy on the wooden platform and immediately let the people behind set fire.
Before the flames are completely burning, they will tightly entangle the enemy who attacks the wooden platform, and then be buried with the enemy in the sea of fire.
In this way, they not only defended Luqiao Town, but also further weakened the military strength of the Dashi Kingdom, and they were also dead.
As Bian Jun's order was transmitted to each section of the city wall by the command soldiers, hundreds of players soon stepped down from the city wall.
The absence of these hundreds of players responsible for setting fire has no big impact on the entire battle situation, so the battle situation has been in a state of anxiety.
As time went by, the arrows carried by the Northern Expedition Alliance players on the city wall were soon completely consumed.
In comparison, the cheap stone in the werewolf warrior's hand was still firing.
There was no way, there was a stream full of pebbles nearby. The werewolfs were very fast to replenish the stones with enough manpower.
Seeing that the enemy's long-range attack on the city wall suddenly fell silent, Lang Wubing, who was supervising the battle not far away, immediately showed a cruel smile.
He shouted to the werewolf warriors who were throwing stones ahead: "Brothers, the enemy's arrows have been consumed. Throw away the shield and smashed them hard for me.
Dapeng, now you will immediately lead my Iron Wolf Guard to attack me hard, there, and there.
I want you to quickly break through one of the city walls and then cover the army outside the city to kill themselves."
"The last general's order!"
When Lang Wubing heard that he was finally going to send him out, Lang Dapeng licked his lips excitedly and then took the order to leave.
After Lang Dapeng led the Iron Wolf Guard, who was more elite than the ordinary werewolf warriors, the pressure on players of the Northern Expedition Alliance on the city wall was getting greater and greater.
Seeing that werewolf warriors were constantly rushing to the city walls in several places where the Iron Wolf Guards were attacking, the nearby players instinctively supported them.
It doesn't matter if they rushed over to support it. The Iron Wolf Guard's focus on attack was temporarily protected, but because of their departure, their original location immediately became precarious.
As a last resort, the player who was close to the danger left his post to rescue the risk again.
This method of dismantling the east wall and repairing the west wall can only treat the symptoms but not the root cause, and it also has great side effects.
As the battle continued, the side effects began to appear, and the defense line of the entire Northern Expedition Alliance quickly became riddled with holes. Werewolf warriors had already rushed up the city wall and stood firm in many places.
"What are you waiting for? Hurry up and set the Rockets."
Seeing that the player responsible for setting fire behind was still observing the situation, Bian Jun, who was covered in blood, immediately shouted loudly.
After hearing Bian Jun's roar, dozens of cloud-piercing arrows immediately flew into the sky.
After hearing the harsh sound of the cloud-piercing arrow, the players who were already ready immediately put the arrow soaked in the turbid oil into the brazier. After the arrow ignites the flames, they quickly shot the rocket onto the dry pyre for ignition.
As rockets were about to hit the dry firewood pile under the wooden platform, the dry firewood covered with fish oil immediately started to burn.
In just a few dozen seconds, the hot oil fire ignited the charcoal on it and began to spread towards the wooden platform where the enemy and us were fighting.
"No, the fire is on the bottom of the wooden platform. Come on, evacuate."
Feeling the high temperature and smoke coming from the wooden platform, many werewolf warriors who attacked the wooden platform immediately became uneasy. They turned around and wanted to escape from the sea of fire before the fire had just risen.
"Stay here for grandpa and let me bury you!"
The werewolf warriors wanted to retreat, but how could the players of the Northern Expedition Alliance, who had already been red-eyed, let them leave easily?
When the werewolf warrior turned around and wanted to escape, the players rushed forward one after another, entangled the enemy and prevented them from leaving.
Faced with the perseverance of the Northern Expedition Alliance players, many werewolf warriors had no choice but to turn around to fight, because if they didn't turn around, they would just be buried under the players' knives.
"If you don't let me leave, then everyone will die together."
After being unable to evacuate, many werewolf warriors were very fierce and launched a more fierce attack on the Northern Expedition Alliance players who were obsessed with them.
"If you die together, you die together. I am afraid that you will have a ball. Anyway, I have a gold medal for exemption, and I will soon become a hero again, and you will go to the eighteenth level of hell."
