Chapter 1657: Pawn points 2 (three)

The low horn sounded in the gun city, and the sound was clearly audible in every corner of the city. The faces of the people who heard the horns were quite ugly. It was a signal that the war was about to begin. Then, at the urging of the officer, the soldiers took up their weapons, and the voluntary militia began to send carts of shells and arrows to the defense line of the city wall.
A 17 or 18-year-old young man carried a box of shells to a cannon on the city wall, put down the shells, and looked down the city, the young face was suddenly full of panic. In the distance outside the city, a dark red line was advancing in the direction of Gun City, and the mighty lineup made this young man's heart beat wildly.
"Don't be in a daze, check the barrel," a middle-aged man next to him called.
The young man returned to his senses and said while doing inspections: "Will we lose?"
"I don't know." The middle-aged man gritted his teeth and said: "Maybe, but now, we have no other choice but to fight. I heard that these things don't leave prisoners. After several cities were attacked by them, All those who surrendered were killed."
"Why is this, where did these things come from?" the young man said scaredly.
At this time, an officer shouted: "The militiamen are coming with me and dispatching weapons."
The middle-aged man pulled the young man next to him, and the two of them followed the crowd to the quarters under the city, and received shields, swords or spears from the quarters officers and assistants. Some of these weapons were still stained with blood. They were taken from the hands of the dead. Holding a sword still stained with blood, the young man's hand was already trembling. The middle-aged man took his hand and said, "You will stand behind me."
After the weapon was issued, the quartermaster drew out his sword and said, "Follow me."
After the militiamen came to the city gate, the quartermaster stood at a higher place and shouted: "This is our city, this is our home. Today, we will defend it to the death! We must guard this gate. The monsters outside open it!"
"I will fight with you. If you want to die, I will die before you."
After speaking, he jumped down and stood in front of the militiamen.
Then there was a cannon on the wall, and the war began!
In addition to the gun city, some of the defensive artillery on the city wall was provided by the Panlong Empire army. The artillery from the Eastern Empire was painted vermilion, and the muzzle was cast into dragon heads. These red dragon cannons are powerful and have a longer range than the guns of the Gun City.
Therefore, the Red Dragon Cannon of the Orientals fired first.
A red dragon cannon fired continuously, and the shells arced in the air and landed on the distant battlefield. The exploding fireballs fell one after another. But the explosive flame is still not extinguished, and the monsters will directly slam out of the flame. Except for being hit and killed by a shell, the flames of the explosion pose little threat to them. Eboins combat units usually have extremely high resistance to fire and high temperature. They are born in the country of high temperature and flame, even the fire boy is not afraid of the flames caused by gunpowder in the material world.
Regarding this point, it has been repeatedly demonstrated, so the gun city has no plans to use cupping from the beginning. You must know that in the previous war with the Eastern Army, throwing cupping cans on a large scale created a large area of ​​fire and blocked the invaders' steps. But this is obviously useless on the Burning Legion, and it is better to use a musket or bow and arrow to be more threatening.
Ho Yi arranged a large number of musketeers and archers on the city wall. After the enemy entered the range of fire, the rain of arrows shot by the archers flew down and fell into the burning legion like dense raindrops. Those flaming horns who ran at the forefront to act as forwards were immediately shot into hedgehogs, but even if their bodies were full of arrows, they still died immediately, and they often rushed for a while before they fell to the ground. The soldier who was about to be replaced by a human was already breathless, and even Huoying frowned at this terrifying vitality.
A large number of flaming horns as cannon fodder continue to attract the firepower from the gun city, consuming the gun city's shells and arrows. Knowing this, Hoy could not order the army to stop the attack, even the flaming horned cannon fodder was much stronger than ordinary soldiers. These beasts are also good at climbing, and once they get on the wall, the consequences would be disastrous.
Therefore, the gun city’s artillery arrows kept going, and the city’s reserves were quickly consumed.
At this time, there was a sound of flapping in the sky, and a red cloud flew toward the gun city, which was an air unit composed of thousands of fire boys. The bellies of these fire boys were red, and then they sprayed fireballs in the direction of the gun city. For a while, the sky seemed to be raining a meteor fire, and the scene was extremely spectacular.
Huo Yi grinned and roared: "Hold the shield, be careful of the fireballs of those things!"
The fireballs ejected by the fire boy are so powerful that they can win in large numbers. Thousands of fireballs fell on the walls of Gun City like a torrential rain, causing a series of explosions and flames. However, after several battles, he has long experience in the offensive gun city of Fire Boy. Soldiers fighting on the city wall have a light shield with a fire barrier on the shield~EbookFREE.me~ After the fireball falls on it and explodes, the flame will quickly go out.
However, many places in the city were on fire, and soldiers already shook lime and quickly came to fire.
"Shoot me those guys above!" Hoy called.
As a result, half of the archers turned their arrows, and shot them at the fire boy above. The red cloud immediately fell over the fire boy's body, and the red cloud became thinner.
Huoyi breathed a sigh of relief. Those little monsters in the air couldn't shoot fireballs continuously. Every time there was a gap for a certain period of time, he also observed this several times before discovering this, so just catch the gap attack.
He breathed a sigh of relief on his side, and heard someone shouting on the other side: "Be careful, the other cavalry is coming!"
Huoyi looked down the city, and sure enough, an iron cavalry was coming towards the city wall. Knowing how powerful this cavalry was, Huoyi immediately ordered: "Prepare the trebuchet and smash it!"
Some strong men, shirtless torso, worked in pairs and put big rocks on the trebuchet throwers. After a while, there was a terrifying whistling sound from the city wall, and huge boulders flew out, drew a parabola and hit the flame knight's long array.
The flame knight is far superior to the flame knight in terms of mobility and combat power, but it is still as fragile as a piece of paper in the face of a boulder thrown from a high altitude. This overbearing physical attack is exactly the flame knight’s nemesis, a big stone. When it hits it, it will surely splash a huge flower of blood.
It's just that although the attack of the trebuchet is domineering, there are too many flame knights, and the trebuchet can't keep up with the speed of the flame knight. At this time, drums sounded under the city, and a team of cavalry in red armor and red clothes ran out from each side of the city wall. The cavalryman had a two-meter long spear. The gun was fastened to the back of the horse, and the cavalryman held it in one hand. The reins, holding the spear in one hand, launched a charge under the drum.
The cavalry of the Eastern Army also joined the war!
