Heroes of Silver Moon
Chapter 476: : The barbarians strike (10)
All the lords expressed dissatisfaction with Simon's concealment of the number of enemy troops, but in the end, it was these lords who sent the private army to the city wall.
This had nothing to do with reasonableness, it was purely Valéry who persuaded them with his fists.
In the desolate and savage southern border, as long as the fist is big, everything is easy to talk about.
On the third day after the arrival of the lord coalition forces, the mighty barbarian army officially launched the attack.
The first ones to appear were still the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled. The defense line of the city wall was more than 30 kilometers long. Although it sounded very long, it was simply impossible for the barbarian army.
Therefore, the barbarians who launched the offensive in the first wave were only about 50,000.
Regarding how to fight this battle, under Valery's arrangement, Simon had already communicated with the lords.
The first person to appear on the stage was naturally his humanoid bomber.
"Meteor fire shower!" Simon drained one-third of his mana in one breath, which is equivalent to all the mana of an ordinary master-level mage, and it is also the limit he can bear. If he uses more mana, his body will collapse and shut down. Fall into a coma like last time.
Red flames began to surge in the sky, and clusters of large fireballs fell like meteors, exploding in the dense army of barbarians, and immediately blood and flesh flew, nearly ten thousand barbarians were injured or died.
All the lords watching the battle on the city wall suddenly opened their mouths into an O-shape, and even Simon's father Valery's eyelids twitched unnaturally.
The barbarians have low combat power, not to mention that they are old, weak, sick and disabled. It is not difficult to deal with nearly ten thousand enemies, but if you want to kill so many people with one person, one spell, and one breath like Simon, These lords thought they couldn't do it.
How about saying that the mage is the ruler of the battlefield! Now Simon's humanoid bomber, according to the standards on Blue Star, is at least at the level of heavy artillery or rocket launchers.
In this era where most of them are still using cold weapons to fight, this is simply an unmatched force!
Seeing this mighty power with his own eyes, the resentment on Fritz's face became more obvious, but Simon had just shown his might, so he didn't dare to attack again for no reason.
"What a kid who got **** luck!" He said sourly in his heart.
Why? Why does this kid possess such earth-shattering power at such a young age.
Why? Why does this heir of the Hawke family dare to break away from the family and open up territory by himself? Where did he get the courage?
How could he build such a majestic city wall in such a short period of time!
Wait, wait, etc., and so on, he and Simon have no personal grievances. Although the families of the two sides have secret rivalries, the overall relationship is not bad, but he just can't see that others are so good, so he attacked Simon when he first met. .
Nearly one-fifth of the casualties did not make the roaring and charging barbarians retreat. Most of them were mentally retarded and didn't know what fear was.
They only know that as long as they break through that city wall, they will have something to eat, and they won't have to go hungry anymore.
boom! boom! boom! boom! This is the second step, the attack launched by the soldiers of the new army.
The sound of rifle shooting made the lords on the city wall, as well as the private army on the city wall ready to fight, tremble with fright.
The muzzle fire kept flashing, and the bullets raged like a storm, penetrating the bodies of barbarians one after another, reducing the number of enemy troops again.
Each soldier in the new army distributed fifteen rounds of ammunition. This round of shooting only used five rounds each. Thousands of people.
Although the barbarians didn't wear armor and had a thin body, the probability of a bullet penetrating twice was still too small, let alone some of the soldiers hit the bullet in the open space.
If it weren't for the fact that there were too many soldiers firing, it would be impossible to tell them apart. Simon really wanted to drag out all those who fired empty shots and beat them up.
Ma De, these bullets are all made by him with his hands. With such a dense offensive formation of barbarians, even if they shoot with their eyes closed, they can basically hit them!
After regaining consciousness, the lords and their private army quickly looked at the strange weapons in the hands of the soldiers of the new army.
"Master Simon, the weapons in your hands seem to be interesting!" Seeing the casualties caused by the new army's five rounds of fire, a lord said with a gleam in his eyes.
Fighting barbarians all year round, these lords have nothing to say about their military literacy, and they can see the advantages of this bolt-action rifle at a glance.
The first is the long range, almost four times that of the militia longbowmen, and two and a half times that of the regular army longbowmen.
This kind of range suppression is almost terrifying!
The second is the fast rate of fire. It took less than fifteen seconds to fire five rounds of salvo. This rate of fire can only be achieved by the most experienced archers.
A group of lords brought 20,000 private troops, including about 1,000 regular army archers, and about 3,000 militia archers. It is possible that less than a hundred people can achieve this rate of fire.
Finally, it does not consume energy, which is also the most critical point. Every time a traditional archer shoots an arrow, he must use his energy to pull the bow. After shooting fifty arrows, the archer is basically exhausted and needs to withdraw from the battle. rest.
Of course, this data varies greatly, and after a battle, unless it is a defensive battle, the archer has a chance to shoot twenty arrows at most, and his energy is completely in a state of surplus.
Anyway, that's what it means. After shooting a certain amount of arrows, the archer needs to rest, but the weapon held by the soldiers of the new army is obviously very similar to the crossbow, and it is easier to operate than the crossbow, and it consumes almost no energy.
In other words, as long as there are enough arrows, these soldiers can keep fighting.
Just because they saw these advantages, when these lords looked at the weapons of the soldiers of the new army, their eyes glowed green, like wolves seeing meat.
Living in the southern border, especially near the Gelug Mountains, where barbarians frequently harass them, what good weapons mean, these seemingly rough lords are very clear in their hearts.
Simon glanced at these lords, and said coldly: "Don't think about it, this kind of alchemy crossbow is very expensive, and the arrows are even more expensive. You have no possibility to equip this weapon in large quantities!"
Just kidding, now the logistics supply of weapons for the entire new army has made him rush to work almost day and night, how could it be possible for these lords to add orders at this time.
What's more, hot weapons are an important means for Simon to ensure the military hegemony of the army, how could it be revealed so casually.
Hearing what Simon said, all the lords laughed awkwardly.
Of course, they knew how much they could harvest from one-third of an acre of land each year. This kind of alchemy weapon, which looked very powerful at first glance, took it for granted that it was very expensive, and it was simply unrealistic to equip soldiers in large quantities.
"Since this kind of weapon is very expensive, why can your soldiers equip it all!" Fritz thought he had grasped the flaw, and asked Simon quickly.
The embarrassing lords showed a look of watching the show again. After all, it is human nature to watch the excitement.
Simon looked at Fritz coldly, and said coldly: "I am a master alchemist, do you have any other questions? If there are other questions, then I don't mind, I will throw you off the city wall now!"
He has a gentle temper, but if he is provoked again and again, he will inevitably get angry. Moreover, he basically doesn't hate anyone in his life, even his enemies, but the only thing he hates is brain damage or mental retardation!
For this kind of brain-dead or mentally retarded person who has no self-knowledge at all, if his strength is insufficient, he will generally choose to stay away, and if his strength is sufficient, he will generally choose to kill him directly.
Since coming to this world, most of the people Simon has encountered, even most of them, including enemies, rarely have an IQ that is not online.
Getting along with these people whose IQ is basically online, whether they are friends or enemies, is always a good thing that makes people happy physically and mentally.
But there are always some idiots, brain-dead, and mentally retarded, who use their extremely offline IQ to insult his IQ by the way.
For example, the second child and my boss, Master Loren of the Hood family, or the boss of the gray gang, Daxie, who is in the slums of the capital and wants to have **** with noble women all day long, even at the expense of the royal princess.
There is also the casino that set up Guy and others, and the Heather Chamber of Commerce to which it belongs.
Being an enemy of these brain-damaged people, Simon felt that his whole body was in a panic, and it was very uncomfortable!
Because being an enemy of this kind of person, there will always be a feeling of lowering your own level. The enemy Simon really expects is the one who sits on the throne, firmly controls the situation of all parties, and treats everyone as pawns the old king.
Or like now, these barbarians who want to push him directly in one breath.
Only by being friends or enemies with such smart people can Simon find the sense of IQ superiority as a time traveler and a historian.
After learning so much history, watching so many dynasties rise and fall, and seeing so many conspiracies and tricks, even if you can't be friends with those smart people, you still can't be with these stupid people all day long!
Now, another brainless person appeared in front of him, how could this not make him feel disgusted!
"You!" Fritz pointed at Simon angrily, and was so angry that he couldn't speak, but he didn't dare to continue to attack, because he knew very well that Simon, who had a powerful force in his hands, might not care about Cochrane where he was at all. family.
"Alas, calm down, calm down." Seeing that the two had a tendency to turn against each other, the lords who had been watching the show immediately made peace.
The enemy is present, and internal hostility at this time is of no benefit to anyone.
Without paying attention to this idiot, Simon returned his gaze to the battlefield.
After his magic bombardment and the new army's bullet storm, the barbarian army has dropped from 50,000 to less than 35,000, and they have also entered the range of the archers of the lord coalition army.
"Let go!" Following Valery's command, first a thousand regular army archers raised their bows and set arrows, and a rain of arrows roared down.
The casualties continued to increase, and the barbarians continued to advance against the rain of arrows.
After the enemy approached to a certain distance, Valery raised his right hand again. This time it was a militia archer with poor quality. Rounds of larger arrow rains fell, forming two death boundaries on the battlefield.
Leaving a field of dead bodies, the barbarians with more than half of their casualties finally came to the foot of the city wall.
A simple ladder made of withered vines and dead wood was erected on the city wall, fully arousing the ferocious kobolds and jackals, howling and using their hands and feet, quickly climbing up the ladder.
The goblin with a more flexible mind was still heroically huddled at the end as usual, thinking about how to retreat the fastest for a while.
There were more than 20,000 barbarians, and only a hundred ladders were erected. There was no way to deploy all the troops. The soldiers of the new army at the front of the city wall retreated as planned, leaving the place for the armed militiamen with spears .
This kind of armed militia armed with spears is also the main force of the lord's coalition forces.
The army is blocked by the city wall, and there are too few ladders that can climb the city wall, and the superiority in numbers cannot be deployed.
On the human side, it is just the opposite. There are city walls to block the enemy, and there are only more than a hundred positions to defend. Basically, before the barbarians have climbed to the city wall, there will be a dozen or so spears, shooting at them from different directions. It pokes into a hedgehog.
Every few years, they have to fight the barbarians. Although they can basically win the battles in the past, they still need ordinary soldiers like them to fight to the death. There are not a few people who died in the battle. It has never been easier to fight like today.
Even though it was on a noisy battlefield, there were already tens of thousands of barbarians dead under the city wall, and there were still barbarians climbing up the city wall through ladders, but the soldiers of the lord's coalition army on the city wall looked relaxed and comfortable, even Many people chatted.
While chatting, the movements of his hands did not fall, and along with the others, he stabbed those ruthless barbarians to death with a spear.
As time goes by, when the people in front are tired, the people behind will take the turn.
The barbarians clinging to the city wall were stabbed to death and fell. After the number gradually became sparse, even the mentally retarded barbarians felt fear in their hearts. Under the leadership of the goblins with few casualties, more than ten thousand remnants began to flee .
In the evening~www.wuxiaspot.com~ the barbarians sent people to collect the corpses again as agreed, and Simon had ordered that no one be allowed to attack.
But when he saw that those savages who came to collect the corpses took away the arrows stuck on the ground in a fair manner, he became angry, he was really angry!
If the barbarians were to take away all the arrows today, I am afraid that the arrows will be simply repaired and poured on their heads tomorrow.
Simon has always boasted that he is a smart person, and he absolutely cannot accept such things as reaping the consequences of his own consequences!
So he took out a rifle and fired recklessly. The number of barbarians killed was not many, but he had already shown his attitude.
Before the barbarians had finished collecting the corpses, they were frightened and hastily left the battlefield. Immediately afterwards, the emissary, who was about to cry in fright, appeared in front of Simon again, asking why Simon did not follow the agreement and launched an attack on the barbarians who came to collect the corpses. attack.
Simon also expressed his attitude in a friendly manner, directly manipulating the soil to form two giant hands, lifting the goblin messenger upside down, and then the fist formed by the mud almost punched out the bile of the messenger.
In the end, the two sides reached a consensus that the humans should collect the arrows first, and then the barbarians would come to collect the corpses.
When building this city wall, Simon didn't consider running outside, so he didn't set up a city gate, which forced him to blow up a small section of the city wall and modify it into a city gate.
Its engineering efficiency left the lords stunned, refreshed their understanding of mages and alchemists once again, and understood why Simon was able to build such a huge city wall in a short period of time.
Only Simon smiled wryly in his heart, Ma Dan, if he knew this, he would not rush to repair the city wall destroyed by that barbarian spellcaster a few days ago.
