Chapter 1131: The first step

There were hundreds of Ratmen warriors who rushed out at the same time as Iron Head.
-After more than two months of death trials, the outstanding people selected from among the tens of millions of rebels naturally have their own ways of survival.
Some Ratmen warriors were as fast as lightning. A few rabbits flew and flew down, swallowing hundreds of arms, and using high-frequency and high-speed changes in a small area, they avoided dozens of arrows in a row.
Some Ratmen warriors are as powerful as iron heads, holding giant wooden shields inlaid with several layers of bone fragments and carapace. The thickness of the shield exceeds the width of the palm of the hand. The top is densely packed with arrows, and they can still be carried on themselves. In front of you, running like flying under your feet.
The hands and feet of some Ratmen warriors were extremely long. They waved slings tanned with wild beast tendons, and threw the sharp, sharp-edged projectiles onto the wall with precision. Go in the crenel.
In the prosperity era, there were two main methods for the rat people to pick the mandala fruit.
Or, like a leaf, with hands and feet flexibly, climb directly onto the mandala tree and harvest the fruit.
Some rat people like to use slings to aim at the branches full of mandala fruits and shoot them down with precision.
The latter often practiced slinging through Yang with one hand and a hundred steps.
The range of the sling can't be compared with the condescending crossbow.
But after crossing the five trenches in succession, the distance between the Ratmen Warrior and Hundred Blade City was still less than a hundred arms.
The sharp-eyed Ratmen warriors can even see the panicked expressions of the wolves, tigers and leopards in the fortresses on the walls.
Aiming at the eye sockets of the jackals, tigers and leopards, throw stones like rain.
Whether it can hit the target or not, it can effectively suppress the shooting from the tower.
The Ratmen warriors who charged at full speed took the opportunity to rush to the bottom of Hundred Blade City, where the archers on the wall were shooting dead ends.
And with the temporary felling and rough trimming of the mandala tree trunks in the past few days, it knocked over hundreds of Juma set up under the city wall.
Afterwards, the Ratmen warriors worked together to erect the trunk of the mandala tree high and put it on the city wall as a simple ladder.
Such a ladder, of course, has no stability at all.
But as a high-ranking orc, he has experienced blood and steel tempering. The Ratmen warriors who can rush here are not on the ancient earth. They can be compared to ordinary soldiers on the battlefield of cold weapons.
Swish Swish!
Their bodies are as light as apes, and they can climb as fast as walking on the ground on the "cloud ladder" that is almost parallel to the city wall and perpendicular to the ground.
Some people even shouted violently, their legs suddenly swelled for a round, jumped high, and they could jump over half of the tree trunk.
There are also rat folks from the Darkmoon clan territories, who have the talent of reptiles. Very small scales grow on the palms and soles of the feet. They can contract muscle fibers to make the scales stand up high, like small ones. The barbs hooked firmly to the seemingly smooth wall.
In this way, there is no need for a ladder to climb directly on the wall, and you can climb up like a giant gecko.
In a short while, the wall on the south side of Hundred Blade City was densely covered with Rat People Warriors who showed their abilities.
There were ten times more Ratmen warriors, shouting the battle cry of "Rat God Blessing", like a raging tide, following them.
Of course, the defenders on the wall would not wait to die.
The walls of the City of Hundred Blades were originally inlaid with a large number of sharp blades polished with metalized mandala branches.
Many sharp blades, in addition to containing rare metal elements, also contain trace spar ingredients, and were engraved with ancient runes by the priests of the gold clan, and with the audio of blessings, an offensive rune array was implanted. .
When they sense that the life magnetic field of carbon-based creatures is approaching, they will automatically activate the offensive runes, releasing frost, flames, lightning, high-frequency oscillations and other destructive forces.
This unique defense system is also the origin of the name "Hundred Blade City".
When a large number of Ratmen fighters climbed the ladder and tried to rush to the tower.
All over the city walls, like thorny blades, suddenly burst into extremely dangerous light.
Some sharp blades ignited raging flames.
Some sharp blades spewed out a mist of ice that made people freeze instantly.
Some sharp blades burst out with dazzling electric arcs, like a translucent viper, penetrated into the gap between the shields and armors of the Ratmen warriors, directly scorching the ratmen warriors to their skins, bursting bones, and screaming. Fell off the ladder.
There were even more sharp blades, spinning like the blade of a meat grinder, and half of the ladder was chopped to pieces with the seven or eight Ratmen warriors clinging to it.
These sharp blades effectively retarded the climb of the Ratmen Warriors.
But after all, this was not three thousand years ago, the Hundred Blade City, which was enough to stand up against Chijin City, had a solid defense system.
Because of the lack of quantity, there is a huge gap between the sharp edge and the sharp edge. As long as you carefully observe it, it is possible to find a way to bypass the dangerous area.
And because of the "Curse of Light", the power of the totem in the depths of the earth is sealed, so that the rare metals and trace spar elements contained in the newly grown mandala branches are far incomparable to those three thousand years ago. .
The sharp blade polished with such a mandala branch could not withstand the full excitation of several destructive powers.
As a result, after several rounds of fire, frost, and thunder and lightning eruption, while a large number of Ratmen fighters were swept down the ladder, these sharp blades also lost their chilling luster, as well as the solidity of cutting iron as mud, or seemed to melt. The steel slumped down, or it morphed into real branches, and was soon burned into black charcoal sticks.
"Mouse bless!"
"The Great Horned Rat God cast a curse and helped us destroy the defense on the city wall!"
The Ratmen warriors did not understand the principle.
But it does not prevent them from using the craziest ideas to come up with the most perfect explanation.
After dropping hundreds of fragmented corpses, they rushed up again like a rainbow.
This time, among the Ratmen warriors who rushed forward, there was an iron head wielding two giant axes.
And Meng Chao and Ice Storm, who followed him silently and escorted him.
In fact, Tietou was almost the first Ratman warrior to rush to the city of Hundred Blades.
But because he comes from the territory of the Bloodhoof clan, he has the blood of wild elephant and bull head, and he is huge in body, so he is not good at climbing by nature.
After trying several times, they all slid off the simple ladder.
Of course, Meng Chao and Ice Storm also moved some small hands and feet in the dark.
The first battle is not so easy to fight.
Before the sharp blades on the wall have reached the fatigue limit and have failed, the first batch of Ratmen warriors who tried to climb the wall must have a very high probability of death and injury.
Even Meng Chao and Ice Storm did not have the confidence to guarantee the safety of the iron head under the condition of adding all the swords.
Besides, the first one to climb the city wall will be able to go down in one go. This is too exaggerated and will inevitably arouse the suspicion of experienced officers and priests.
Now, the wall of the city has been driven by the rat people's frenzy, wading several roads.
With the thick skin of the iron head and a little bit of "luck", it seems reasonable to make the first achievement.
"The Rat God helps me, it's invulnerable!"
A simple-minded man who didn’t understand that every moment of his death, when the sharp blade inserted in the city wall sprayed flames, frost and electric arcs at him, he would inexplicably sore his hands and feet, twitch his muscles, and then fell from the ladder again and again. After coming down, even though he fell into the sky and was embarrassed, he also managed to escape several fatal blows dangerously and dangerously. What was going on.
He lacked a string in his mind, and he didn't want to figure it out at all.
Anyway, don't ask, ask is the blessing of the bighorn rat god, and it's over.
He only felt that his luck on this climb was exceptional.
I don't know who smashed the simple ladder he was climbing, and just leaned crookedly on the other ladder.
Around the two ladders, the sharp blades that were originally shiny were all drooping down dullly, seemingly ineffective.
It turned out to be hit by mistake, and opened a green channel directly above the city wall!
And when he climbed to the height of twenty or thirty arms in one breath, and was only half a step away from the crevice on the city wall, several heads of jackals, tigers and leopards protruded from the crevices, holding large metal claws with long poles. , Tried to cross his ladder, and knocked him to the ground even with the ladder.
But from behind him, a few slings flew from nowhere, accurately hitting the eye sockets, eyebrows, nose and throat of the jackals, tigers and leopards, and immediately knocked these city defenders to the ground, even fainted on the spot, and fell directly from the buttress. , Fell into the creeping rat people frenzy.
In front of the iron head, the door suddenly opened.
This man who thought he had received the blessing of the big horned rat god, so invulnerable, suddenly roared and jumped onto the city wall of Hundred Blade City.
"Rush up!"
"Someone rushed up the wall!"
In a siege battle in the Cold Weapon Age, whether the attacker can ascend the tower and start a hand-to-hand battle with the defenders is of iconic significance.
Before the attacker has ascended the tower, the casualty exchange ratio between the two sides is very likely to reach ten to one.
The defending army is fully able to wait for work on the tower, slowly using arrows, boiling oil and falling rocks, consuming the number and morale of the attacking party.
However, once the two sides started a war of intestines on the wall.
The casualty exchange ratio will change from ten to one to one to one at an alarming rate.
If it is not possible to immediately and resolutely expel the attacker who has boarded the city wall and plug the gap.
The isolated defenders are exhausted by the attacked party with dozens of times the number advantage. It is only a matter of time.
For a moment, all the Ratmen warriors seemed to have heard the call of the Big Horn Rat God again.
The blood, which was already close to boiling, burned even more, injecting surging power into their muscle fibers.
They made their climbing speed continue to accelerate, jumped up the city wall in one go, and reluctantly moved closer to the iron head to form an indestructible arrow.
