Chapter 153
Chapter 153
Outside the city walls.
Wilkin got busy early in the morning.
Because Thanos gave the order, we must try to attack the city today.
So Graham, Khaled and Alexia, as well as the captains of the various teams, were also called over.
"Everyone, after communicating with each other in the past three days, it is clear that the enemy is unwilling to surrender, so the higher-ups told us to prepare for a strong attack.
During these three days, the siege troops had built seven siege vehicles and 22 ladders, and the underground people also dug a tunnel to the vicinity of the city wall.
Do you have any good ideas for siege now? "
Naturally, they didn't have nothing to do every day during these three days.
As usual, they sent envoys to Bazhir Town to persuade them to surrender, but it obviously failed.
At the same time, it also began to manufacture various siege weapons and dig tunnels.
Everyone around heard the words, you look at me, I look at you, but no one spoke first.
After all, the large number of people involved and the scale of this battle were unprecedented for them.
Everyone was afraid that an incorrect idea of their own might lead to the failure of the war, so no one spoke.
In fact, Wilkin was also afraid of losing the war, otherwise he would not have asked everyone for their opinions before the war.
After a while, seeing that no one spoke, he could only continue: "Since no one spoke, then I will arrange the task."
After a while, he started roll call, arranging who is responsible for which direction and what is the main responsibility.
After half an hour, he finally made arrangements, and began the official siege.
But because it was still in the morning, it would soon be high temperature at noon.
So it was just a tentative attack to create some pressure on the enemy, and then retreated.
Then there is the constant testing of the undead army.
Even the skeleton shooter was sent out this time, just to make the enemy more tired.
And the enemy in Bazhier Town reacted very quickly, and immediately sounded the alarm bell, and more soldiers came up.
There is no chance for them to sneak attack at all.
But Wilkin wasn't in a hurry, he just let the undead troops keep putting pressure on the enemy, and didn't mean to attack the city immediately.
For this reason, he also pushed the siege engine and the ladder into the distance, pulling them out of the range of the enemy.
Made a gesture of ready to move.
This really put enormous psychological pressure on the enemy, and there were no less than 600 people on each side of the city wall.
But as the sun rose high, it was noon, and the temperature was getting higher and higher. It had climbed to more than 50 degrees, and even eggs could be cooked.
The enemies on the city wall saw that the siege troops had not launched an offensive for a long time, so some people began to be lazy and ran to hide in shaded places.
And in the coalition of survivors.
Wilkin sat on the undead mount, basking in the sun, looking coldly at Bazhier Town.
He had been looking at it like this for six hours without moving.
Seeing the enemy start to relax at this time, a cold light flashed in his eyes.
"Send the order, let the siege vehicles and ladders start to advance! The undead troops keep up! The human soldiers are ready! The underground people start planning!"
Following a series of orders, the coalition of survivors began to operate at high speed like a sophisticated machine.
……
"Ding dong! Ding dong!"
Waves of alarm bells began to echo in the sky above Bazhir Town.
At that time, people's reaction to this was not as strong as before. They just slowly picked up their weapons and walked towards the city wall.
"Damn it, those skeletons are here again, do you want to let people rest?"
"We're pretty good. At least we still have a chance to rest. The brothers on the city wall are being tortured. The sun is still outside."
"Let's go quickly, or the captain will scold your mother again later."
"Wait a minute, let me cool off for a while, anyway, those skeletons won't really attack the city."
"This damn weather is so hot."
At this time, people didn't realize that the alarm bells were different from the previous ones, and thought it was just a feint.
Even Maruane ended his meditation reluctantly in the laboratory.
"These damned guys, why are they here again..."
He also didn't think the enemy would launch a general attack at this time.
Because the weather is too hot.
They couldn't stand it, and neither could the enemy.
But at this moment, a soldier ran up from downstairs in a panic.
"Master Wizard, it's not good, the enemy has launched a general attack!"
Hearing this, Maruane just nodded lightly, and said impatiently: "Understood, I'll go right away."
In the past few days, the enemy has launched a "general attack" not a hundred times, but eighty times, basically once every hour, and he is used to it.
The soldier looked anxious, and continued panting: "No, my lord, the enemy's siege vehicles and ladders have all been pushed over!"
Hearing this, Maruane became a bit more serious.
But still didn't take it too seriously.
"Well, let's go now."
After finishing speaking, he walked downstairs slowly.
If he heard the enemy's general attack two days ago, he would have used his magic power to fly out.
But now he is smart and knows to save mana, so he started to use it away.
Seeing this, although the soldiers were very anxious, they did not dare to continue to press.
After all, Master Wizard's temper is well known.
If I really offend the other party, I guess I will be on duty at the city wall in the afternoon.
After a while, Maruane came to the downstairs of the laboratory and frowned when he saw the soldiers who were a little flustered and the exclamation on the city wall.
From this posture, it doesn't look like a feint attack. Could it be that the real siege has begun?
Thinking of this, his heart was full of gloom, but he still waved his hand, grabbed the magic staff that flew out of the laboratory, and then flew towards the city wall.
After reaching the city wall, the uneasiness in my heart really became real.
I saw those ten-meter-high cloud ladders in the distance, which were slowly advancing. At this time, they were only about 20 meters away from the city wall.
And those siege vehicles almost came near the gate of the city.
Those skeleton soldiers who never dared to enter within 100 meters in the past held up their huge shields and followed behind these siege weapons.
In addition, there is also a new skeleton archer who also lay down in a strange posture and fired arrows 50 meters away from the city wall.
"Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..." piercing the air, sounded from time to time.
Of course, the soldiers on the city wall also gripped their bows and arrows and launched a counterattack.
But those skeletons are hard to hit. Even if you are lucky and hit the bone, it will not cause fatal damage.
Only those arrows that hit the skull can truly kill the skull.
After Maruane knocked away a few arrows that were coming at him with his staff, he immediately shouted with an ugly face: "Where are the cavalrymen! Charge me!"
Guarding the city gates is tantamount to death, and you must take the initiative to break the situation.
This is one of the few things he learned about defending the city.
There is no way, the wizard needs to learn too much, and he can also learn some knowledge about attacking and defending city walls. After becoming the garrison of Bazhier Town, he has done his best for this job.
