Chapter 409: Siege

"Your Excellency Biester..."
General Jumonville wanted to speak, but was interrupted impatiently by the "Lord of the Black Castle".
"If there is anything else, Lord General, just talk to my lieutenant Nalfer. The ghost weather in this place is cold and humid, and it often rains, which is really unbearable!" Belest lazily. A yawn, "Sorry, I have to take a nap on the boat, I'm out of company first."
General Zhu Mengville watched the tall back of the mercenary leader ascend the gangway and shook his head helplessly.
Bilist’s arrogant attitude made him unhappy. Fortunately, the 100 mercenaries under Biester were kind to him and very dedicated. After receiving the siege order, he immediately took action, with the assistance of the sea blue officers and soldiers. , Collect stones on the spot as siege ammunition.
Large stones weighing more than a hundred pounds are hard for ordinary people to hold with both hands. The tall fire giant can easily pick up with just two fingers, throwing and playing as if picking up an apple, this magical power not only makes the same The people in the camp deeply admired it, and they also terrified the defenders across the fortress of Nisesi, and gave an ominous hunch to the fire giants' next move.
People's hunches soon evolved into real disasters.
The Fire Giant mercenary packed the collected stones into a large pocket that he carried with him. He dragged a thousand-pound pocket in his right hand, and on his left, he held a giant tower shield commensurate with his body. The main entrance is advancing.
Lieutenant Colonel Vasa has learned from the "Windstorming" sent by Joan that the Fire Giant mercenary regiment joined the enemy camp, personally rushed to command the officers and soldiers to defend the city, and observed the huge red-skinned figures through the telescope. The army attacked with ballistas, bows and arrows, and slingshots to stop the group of fire giants from approaching the city walls.
At this time, the Fire Giant mercenaries are still more than 300 yards away from the city wall. At this distance, the arrows launched by ordinary bows and crossbows are difficult to threaten them. Occasionally one or two arrows are shot on the body and are also ejected by the heavy armor. .
As for the catapults and ballistas, the range and power are enough to kill the fire giants. However, these large devices are usually used to deal with the same bulky and large siege equipment. By comparison, the fire giants are not large enough as targets.
Moreover, the Fire Giant is far more flexible than equipment such as siege vehicles. In the face of the giant crossbow or rock shot from the head of the city, either flash to avoid, or use a shield to block, like a mobile fortress, under the rain of arrows The falling stone moved on, and soon approached two hundred yards from the city wall.
Biele’s lieutenant Narver blew his horn, and the hundred giant fire mercenaries stopped. He dropped his large pocket full of stones, and with his hands he grabbed the steel giant shield and struck the ground.
The giant tower shield dedicated to the fire giant has a cone shape at the lower end and is deeply buried in the sand. The shield is equipped with a bracket on the inside, which can be folded and hidden normally. At this moment, the bracket has been expertly opened by the fire giant mercenaries to provide a stability for the shield Support point.
When all the hundred giant shields were fixed, a sloping shield wall was formed on the battlefield, providing an impenetrable bunker for the fire giant mercenaries, blocking the arrows and stones thrown by the opposing defenders.
The Fire Giant mercenary hid behind the shield wall, and the detective took out a hundred-pound rock from his pocket. Without hurrying to throw it, he held it in his palm and waited for a few seconds until the burning magic in his body was inspired and injected into the palm through his fingertips. The stones, which burned the originally cold rocks red like coals, were thrown out.
Throwing stones is the housekeeping skill of all Fire Giant mercenaries who have been practicing hard since childhood.
The stones thrown by their hands are not only heavy, but also as accurate as their eyes. They are all firmly locked on the ballistas and trebuchets erected on the opposite wall.
The burning stones, like meteorites, whizzed around with suffocating heat waves.
The stone projectile hit the ballista and the catapult, and at the same time destroying the equipment, it also broke apart on its own, turning into countless burning debris, splashing, igniting the surrounding defenders, and screaming and falling down.
The defending soldiers who were splashed, struggled to roll over and tried to extinguish the flames on their bodies. Inside and outside the city walls were bombarded by artillery, and the chaotic scene was terrible.
After a round of stone-throwing attacks by the Fire Giant Mercenary Corps, a complete ballista or catapult was no longer visible on the wall opposite the wall. All the "artillery shells" thrown by the Fire Giant were accurately blasted.
The garrison has not yet restored order, and the Fire Giant mercenaries have again lifted stones infused with scorching magic and launched the second round of throwing.
This time, they directly destroyed the city walls.
After a round of earth-shaking roars, a series of cobweb-like cracks appeared on the concealed wall of the defending army, only one step away from the collapse.
The Fire Giant mercenary is like a hundred humanoid turrets without emotion.
The crumbling wall in front of me, as well as the panic and despair of the small and weak human soldiers behind the wall, could not arouse the slightest pity in their hearts, still grabbing the stones step by step, injecting magic power to bake until they were red, and then throwing it leisurely and unhurriedly Go out.
The boulder dashed across the sky like a fiery meteor, and finally smashed into the city wall two hundred yards. It burst into a scorching shrapnel that burst into the sky, knocking down the defender on the wall and igniting it. Most of them were killed on the spot.
Faced with such a fierce offensive, George Vaasa felt powerless and had to order the defenders to evacuate the city walls, trying to avoid unnecessary sacrifices.
In such a situation, the city wall is destined to be untenable.
After the fourth round of bombing by the Fire Giant mercenaries, the city gate and the surrounding walls collapsed unexpectedly.
At the moment, the fortress of Nisesi, like a girl with her skirt removed, was exposed naked to the enemy.
The troops that were originally standing in front of the city wall withdrew like a low tide into the fort.
Although all the defending officers and soldiers, including Lieutenant Colonel Vasa, have fallen into deep despair at this time, what can they do besides sticking to this final position?
General Nalver, deputy head of the "Black Fort Mercenary Corps", once again sounded the marching horn.
The Fire Giant mercenary at the forefront, after hearing the news, put away the tower shield and marched forward.
Blocked in front of them is a trench with irrigation.
This kind of fortification to stop human beings is nothing but a shallow stream for tall fire giants. They wandered over easily and continued to advance towards the collapsed city gate.
The horn of Narver sounded for the third time, and the Fire Giant mercenaries stopped collectively.
They set up a shield wall right in front of the broken wall, took materials from the place, grabbed the fragments of the wall and used it as a cannonball, injected the talent magic power into a semi-melted lava, and threw it hard, hitting Nisse less than a hundred yards away. West Fortress.
Numerous hot stones hit the sky, smashing the wooden whistle tower at the top of the fortress, and then fragile doors and windows.
The fortress itself was also hit hard one after another, and the thick stone wall shivered under the fierce attack of the Fire Giant, and cracks appeared.
The violently shaking ceiling seemed to collapse at any time.
