Chapter 19 Tar-Jordel 4 starts
Covering the sky and blocking out the sun.
The smoke and noise caused by the marching Chaos Legion can be detected several kilometers away.
The huge skeletal chariot made of heads at the front exudes an aura of terror and blasphemy. The slight shock caused by fifty thousand people walking at the same time is enough to be felt by the town defenders several kilometers away.
The entire legion is dominated by Chaos Warriors, supplemented by a large number of monsters and behemoth units. These terrifying and ferocious existences can scare the faint of heart with just one look at the timid ones.
The ancient dragon demon holding a huge warhammer has a huge body, which makes people feel despair at a glance. The thin limbs of the giants of the Chaos Wasteland, the round belly and the ugly face make people wonder if they are eating.
How many of the same kind did it take to mutate into this appearance?
The most terrifying thing is the chaotic eggs with weird and changeable postures. These chaotic creatures, which have received too many gifts from darkness and failed to control these powers, were completely controlled by the evil god of chaos after losing their last trace of reason, and their bodies began to deform and grow irregularly.
.
The final use of these creatures is to dedicate the last remaining body of themselves. Most of them are mutated from the Chaos Warriors. Most of them walk and have different shapes.
But there are also some Chaos Eggs that have mutated wings and can fly for short periods of time.
"Blood sacrifice to the blood god! Skull sacrifice to the skull throne!"
These believers of Khorne can't wait to conquer the city wall in front of them. They only met some wild beasts and a few elves along the way. They have already been unable to bear the rage in their hearts and want to show their bloody bravery and sacrifice it to Terror.
Abused.
These creatures of chaos, whose muscles were far more developed than their own brains, were led by the demon without fear or questioning. After hurriedly making some wooden ladders, they began to prepare to attack the city without rest or anything else.
Prepare.
"Blood sacrifice to the blood god! Skull sacrifice to the skull throne!"
The big demon standing on a hillside didn't say much. It didn't have much sympathy or recognition for these pitiful creatures that were attached to evil gods in reality. It just waved its hand and made them, who had already lost patience, begin to attack the city.
.
Under the blessing of the evil god, the physical strength of the Chaos Warriors, monsters and behemoths is almost unlimited. They start sprinting when they are still three or four kilometers away, without any thought of conserving their physical strength or energy.
The Chaos infantrymen holding battle axes and hammers high are the main force of the entire legion. They lead the way, shouting all kinds of strange sounds and words, with almost no sense of reason in their blood-red eyes. Some even think that the people in front are blocking them.
Without hesitation, he struck down with his axe, cutting down the fellows in front of him.
"Roar!!!"
However, those huge dragon demons and giants did not invest at this time, otherwise they would definitely make the already chaotic charge scene with serious accidental injuries more bloody.
…………
The words were divided into two parts. Just a moment before the Chaos Legion outside the city began to attack, Carter and his team were assigned to their posts.
This kind of behavior of putting the garrison in place just before the battle is very unreasonable, and it can also be seen from the side that there are quite a few problems in the management level of the elves.
Under the leadership of Aragon, the ten men from Jidongfang followed the messenger who led the way and came to their posts.
"Where is the equipment depot? If you need ammunition, go get it yourself. The rolling stone is here, and there is the intersection leading to the lower level. You just follow the command of Captain Bernalsin!"
After hurriedly explaining the general situation, the messenger who led the way left directly, leaving behind ten people who had not yet adapted.
"Captain, this is too casual!"
Lilian was quite dissatisfied with the attitude of the messengers and superiors. It was very dangerous to be unfamiliar with the environment in which they were stationed. It was very likely that they would get lost because they were not familiar with the roads, resulting in delayed material transportation and failure to block the siege attack.
Even if you use a military longbow to deal with these big guys, you have to shoot at the gaps in the armor from a distance of more than ten meters to penetrate them. Only ballistae can threaten them from a long distance. Any slack may cause great danger.
"I understand, but stop complaining and follow the arrangements first."
"I'm going to report to the guard here. You should familiarize yourself with the nearby environment and defensive equipment as soon as possible!"
After Aragorn finished explaining, he waved and walked towards the guard who was not far away wearing a general's armor and a wind-riding helmet.
…………
If there is a book, it will be long; if there is no book, it will be short.
The ten people from Jidong Dun arrived at the middle part of the city under the arrangement of the city guard general.
Most of the high elves' city walls will take advantage of the height of the natural terrain, so most of the city walls are very high, and they will use the entire mountain as a natural city wall, and build independent rooms in it, in order to deal with the generally heavy armor and rough skin.
The Chaos army arranged a large number of crossbows above and inside the city walls to fire crossbow arrows that were as thick as arms.
The ten people from Jidong Dun were arranged into a room in the middle section of the city wall. There were rectangular independent rooms at regular intervals on the wall. There were also some small holes on the floor that could be seen directly below for throwing stones.
The rectangular shooting port in front of the bed crossbow is much larger than normal. If the attacker is thin enough, he can even squeeze in.
Outside the room they were defending, there was a passage that directly connected to the inner city for moving troops and transporting supplies.
At this time, everyone, including Carter, was wearing unicorn armor that covered their thighs, and their upper body was wearing solid half-plate armor. The pointed helmet that could protect the entire head was not worn for the time being.
Although they were guarding the middle section of the city wall, generally speaking, the chance of close combat was very small. It was enough to fire crossbows and arrows as quickly and accurately as possible. But Aragorn still ordered everyone to prepare.
, anything can happen in the battle. If they are attacked on the city wall and they are not even equipped with armor, the situation can only be described as embarrassing.
Every second on the battlefield is important. If you fail to move in time or are casually killed by a stray enemy because you are not wearing armor, then your death will be too unfair.
"Be prepared for everything! The enemy will attack soon!"
Sure enough, following Aragorn's words, only a little outline of the Chaos Legion could be seen in the distance and began to charge.
…………
"kill!!!!"
Looking around, there were charging Chaos Warriors everywhere, mixed with a large number of terrifying monsters that had no idea what they had mutated.
Most of these monsters have bloated bodies and a huge volume of two to three meters in height. When encountering such filthy creations in the wild, they will be easily defeated. There are not many mortals who can remain rational after seeing such terrifying creations.
.
They quickly approached one kilometer away from the Tal-Zhodel city wall, and based on the already chaotic and fast charge, they once again accelerated their pace.
Blessed by the evil god, they can hardly feel the pain and fatigue of their bodies. Even the armor on their bodies is basically integrated with the Chaos Warriors, and their use will basically not affect their movements.
The speed of most Chaos Warriors has reached the speed of Bolt's 100-meter sprint, and some mutated monsters and Chaos Eggs are even running at the speed of a car.
Of course, these are not able to scare the high elves guarding the city wall. They have prepared magic and thick crossbows waiting for them to approach and deliver them to the door.
Compared with the cries of the Chaos army, there are no extra sounds except the sound of horns and drums on the wall of Tal-Drowdel where the elves are stationed. Basically, the defenders on the wall have a bow in their hands.
Taken together, the archers guarding this city wall and behind the city wall waiting to fire volleys have at least three thousand bows and hundreds of thousands of arrows waiting to unleash their fury.
The crossbow has been strung and arrows set, and we are waiting for them to approach the pre-made reference positions.
One thousand meters, nine hundred and fifty, nine hundred, eight hundred...five hundred, four hundred meters.
The troops of the Chaos Army have already approached the effective shooting range of the war machine, but the elves on the city wall are still waiting, waiting for them to enter the three hundred meters distance where they can guarantee a hit.
Whether it is a bow, a crossbow or a crossbow bed, the maximum range and effective range of long-range weapons are always different. Just like a bow can use the wind direction to make a light arrow float seven or eight hundred meters away, but that kind of float over
The arrows are meaningless, and the high elves even have specialized people studying how to make the arrows fly farther so that they can win in competitive matches. However, in order to ensure the power on the chariot, the shooting range must be shortened.
The same goes for the bed crossbow. Although it can shoot one kilometer away, if you want to penetrate the plate armor given by the evil god, you must wait until the crossbow bed is about three hundred meters to effectively kill. Otherwise, even if it hits these Chaos Warriors at a super long distance,
It's hard to be fatal. It relies entirely on the kinetic energy of the 'collision' to kill the Chaos Warriors. But as long as they can't be killed, it's just a matter of taking a short rest based on their exaggerated recovery capabilities.
"Three hundred and fifty meters!"
