Bringing Beauty To Infinity
Vol 10 Chapter 43: New Tactics for Trebuchets
"Falmore. Fantastic."
Poromo knew the value of this victory. He came to meet Farmer himself. after he dismounted. He gave Farmer a warm hug.
"Brother. Thanks to Mo Xue for teaching me the cavalry and shooting tactics. We not only eliminated these wolf cavalry. We also caused a lot of casualties to the Orc infantry."
Falmo gave his brother a brief report on the whole process of the battle.
Boromo heard the words. Sadly sighed. Said: "This tactic is too demanding for soldiers. We are all of Gondor. Except for these 3,000 people who can shoot arrows on horseback. Other soldiers can't use this tactic at all."
"Ah...yeah. That's right. Brother. Sauron's army has grown in size again. Let's be careful this time. Aragorn's reinforcements won't arrive in two days at the earliest. In the meantime. We worked hard."
Falmer recalled the boundless orc army he had seen not long ago. My heart became a little heavy.
"Brother. You must have confidence. Although the enemy is strong. But we have Miss Mo Xue's help. We will be able to defend it."
Boromo patted his brother on the shoulder. He continued: "Go and rest. The Orc attack will take a while. We still have a tough fight to fight."
Falmore nodded when he heard the words. Turn away.
At this time, the half-orc commander was still waiting for the news of the wolf riding. But since the wolf cavalry attacked, there has been no news. but. The human cavalry did not harass again. The commander gave the order to move on.
With the dark clouds covering Minas Tirith. The army of orcs finally arrived at the city.
"Ah...humans. I'm going to kill you all."
The orc commander raised his head and let out a howl. right in front of him. There is a tower made of wolf cavalry heads. Such a tower. In the words of the Chinese people, it is "Jingguan". The Orc Commander faced such a demonstration by humans. Heart is full of anger.
as a commander. Of course he is not reckless. He was not carried away by anger. Attack without caring. Instead, he quietly observed Minas Tirith from a distance.
The city of Minas Tirith was divided into seven layers. The road into the fortress winds its way around the hills. Whenever this road passes the position of the vertical main gate. It all goes through an arched tunnel. There is a huge rock that just divides the entire city in half. The only exception is the first layer. Part of this special landscape is a natural mountain. Part of it is the ingenious work of a skilled craftsman.
This huge rock with a sharp blade is located behind the main entrance square. All the way to the top floor of this circular city. Another fortress was built at the very top of the rock. Let the defenders in the top fortress overlook the main gate seven hundred feet below. The entrance to the fortress in the city faces west. It was carved out of solid rock. Then there is a ramp leading to the seventh gate.
The original semi-circular outer city wall has been transformed into a prismatic shape. This project has to be said to be a miracle. It was successfully remodeled with the participation of all the people of Minas Tirith. some of. Many construction machinery designed by Mo Xue according to local conditions have come in great use.
Facing the murderous ribbed city wall. The half-orc commander showed a solemn expression. He had never seen such a city wall before. He had to tread carefully.
at this time. On top of the seven hundred-foot rock of Minas Tirith. Mo Xue reluctantly put away the sniper rifle. This spot overlooking the main entrance is an excellent sniper spot. However, because the enemy outside the city walls is still far away. Although Mo Xue has confirmed the position of the enemy commander. But the sniper rifle in his hand couldn't hit the target that far. At this time, she only continued to use the scope to observe the movement of the enemy. Then promptly notify the city defense forces.
"The trebuchet. Hit me."
The orc commander looked at the ribbed city wall for a while but couldn't see much. I was a little anxious. according to the predetermined plan. Offensive started.
"Boom."
"Boom."
The trebuchets of the orc army are operated with the help of trolls. The frequency of stone throwing is very high. Huge boulders flew into the city. It caused a lot of damage to the buildings in the city. Some of the stones thrown very accurately even hit some of the watchtowers.
"Where's our trebuchets. Let them taste it."
Boromo saw the orcs use the trebuchet. He gave the order with a sneer.
After a while. A huge boulder shot out from the third floor of Minas Tirith. But the stone did not yield any victories. It only fell a few dozen meters in front of the orc formation. After landing a few rolls. No damage was done to the enemy.
"Hehe. Human feet are weak..."
Look at this unreliable rock. The orcs let out a mocking laugh.
But in a watchtower that the Orcs didn't notice. A human messenger is loudly conveying the order: "Tighten the noose three times. Concentrate on firing."
followed by a sound of a spring. The orcs outside the city raised their heads in horror. They arrived at dozens of huge stones and flew over almost at the same time.
"Boom." "Boom."...
The power of dozens of boulders landing at the same time is very huge. The human throw was quite accurate this time. Dozens of boulders covered the range of the two orc trebuchets. Not only did the two trebuchets fall apart. It also smashed the half-orcs within the attack range into meat sauce.
After a while. Another boulder flew out. Landed near another trebuchet. after. The dozens of boulders that followed smashed the catapults nearby.
"Hey. This method is awesome."
Boromo saw the effect of the trebuchet attack. Excitedly waving his fists. The trebuchet's attack method was also improved according to Mo Xue's suggestion. Except for some oversized, immobile trebuchets. Mo Xue proposed a method for the centralized use of trebuchets. The first stone is used to measure the angle and orientation of the throw. The observer passes through where the first stone falls. Figure out how other trebuchets adjust. certainly. Tools and methods required for the calculation. All from Mo Xue. in this era. Even the smartest soldier. It is also difficult to understand the rationale here. But isn't there a teaching method called "cramming teaching"? Observers do not need to understand the rationale here. Just follow the steps exactly.
Poromo began to take this approach less seriously. But Mo Xue convinced him with practical results. At this time in actual combat. This relatively advanced tactic paid off immediately.
When the third positioning stone flew out of the city wall. The wise orc immediately fled from the vicinity of the stone. Not even the trebuchet could be bothered to operate. This cowardly behavior annoyed the commander.
"The striker backs up temporarily. Vampire. Get on me. Destroy the trebuchet."
The orc commander then issued a new order.
