Chapter 379: Nanzhao National Palace
Bang, bang, bang! ~~
The catapult in front of Lin Mu was constantly throwing huge stones, specifically aiming at the crossbow beds on the battlements of the city wall.
Whoosh... The huge stone tore through the air and hit the target crossbow bed hard. With a bang, the precision crossbow bed broke apart.
The generals guarding the city saw that the enemy's catapult was targeting the crossbow bed, and immediately ordered the shield-bearing soldiers to stand on the crossbow bed and use their bodies to resist the falling rocks!
Some powerful generals snatched the huge fine steel shields from the shield soldiers and also stood in front to prevent the enemy from wantonly destroying the crossbow bed.
"The archers of the seventh, eighth, ninth, and tenth teams of the third part, shoot at the house on the left!" The generals guarding the city felt that the catapult in that house was a big problem and had to be suppressed to prevent it from causing more losses to their side.
When the rain of arrows was thrown at Lin Mu, he felt a murderous aura directed at them and shouted loudly: "Attention, shield soldiers, the enemy's arrows are coming! Hold on!"
Before the voice faded, Lin Mu's figure had disappeared from the spot, and suddenly appeared in front of the Red Fire Catapult, taking out a shield from his backpack.
Holding the shield in his left hand and the gun in his right hand!
Dingdingdang, Lin Mu easily resisted the enemy's arrows.
"Block! Everyone protect!" Arrows like a rainstorm suddenly emerged from the night sky, covering this area of houses, and between the intersections, they attacked Lin Mu and his men brutally and ruthlessly.
After easily resisting a wave of arrows, the crisis hidden in the dark night suddenly came!
"Hey, the dry goods are coming!" Lin Mu seemed to have sensed something, slightly bent his body, and held the shield.
"Bang!" With a loud noise, Lin Mu staggered slightly and stepped back a few steps. It turned out that just now, he used the shield to block a crossbow arrow three fingers thick.
When blocking, the shield tilted slightly, slightly dissipating 80% to 90% of the fierce force, deflecting the crossbow arrow and piercing through the stone slab in the house, making a thumping sound.
But even so, Lin Mu felt that his left hand holding the shield was trembling slightly, which was a short-term sequelae left after the huge impact.
After slightly adjusting his state, Lin Mu glanced at the conditions of other catapults next to him, but found that the situation was a bit bad.
Seventeen catapults, three of which were damaged by thick crossbows and lost their effectiveness.
In addition, there were three shield soldiers in front of the catapults, who were pierced through the body by crossbows in the dark and stuck straight on the back wall. Scarlet blood dripped and the sound echoed in the dark night. Although it was light, it was even more terrifying in the dark night!
Then, another wave of arrows gushed over like a tide.
One after another, the arrows that came at high speed from the front hit the catapults with clangs when the shield soldiers behind them could not catch up with the front to resist.
Crack! Crack! Crack!
The harsh metal sound resounded in the house, and the three catapults fell down, and three more catapults were destroyed!
The ferocity of the enemy should not be underestimated.
There were only seventeen catapults in total, and within a few breaths, six catapults had lost their effectiveness and were scrapped under the enemy's seamless means!
"Damn it, the enemy's arrow attack is too brutal. If this continues, we won't be able to hold on for long!" Lin Mu struggled to deflect another crossbow arrow, and after glancing at the situation next to him, he roared in his heart.
However, it is rude not to return the favor! While Lin Mu suffered heavy losses, the situation on the opposite wall was not good either.
After being thrown several waves of boulders by Lin Mu, many crossbow beds were also destroyed, and the number of soldiers killed could not be counted for the time being, and the losses were also tragic.
Moreover, during these waves of fighting, Dian Wei's troops, like a tide, had already approached the city wall and started to fight on the city wall!
I saw that the two leading generals, like tigers and leopards hunting, suddenly jumped up to the top of the wall and started to fight hand-to-hand with the enemy.
Under their cover, the soldiers in the rear also began to slowly climb up the not very high city wall and started a hand-to-hand battle!
There will be two if there is one, and three if there are two. The soldiers of Dian Wei's troops began to slowly gain a foothold on the city wall, started a positional battle with the enemy, and plundered the enemy's space.
However, in order to climb the city wall, Dian Wei's troops paid a high price. The corpses on the ground looked very scary under the illumination of the fallen torches.
The sporadic firelight, accompanied by the smoke and dust rising up, set off the entire battlefield very tragically!
On Lin Mu's side, he encountered a huge crisis.
It turned out that the enemy's crossbow bed actually "took care" of him. Two thick crossbow arrows, like lightning, attacked him head-on with bursts of air-breaking sounds. Even though Lin Mu reacted quickly, he only used his shield and Dragon God Spear to deflect the crossbow arrows in a rather embarrassing way.
It was very difficult for Lin Mu to resist these large weapons, not to mention other shield soldiers.
Some shield soldiers had already changed four or five shields, and the shields under their feet, which were full of arrows and even broken, were thrown away in a mess.
"Swish! Swish! Swish!" Three air-breaking sounds, wrapped in a horrifying momentum, suddenly attacked Lin Mu!
Asshole, three crossbow arrows! A flash of horror flashed through Lin Mu's mind, and then his whole body of dragon energy swelled, forming a green shield that wrapped his whole body, and the Dragon God Spear and the slightly damaged shield also emitted a faint green fluorescence.
Lin Mu's eyes lit up, and he stared at the crossbow arrows in front of him like a hawk. He suddenly exerted force with both hands, holding the shield with his left hand, and stretched it forward violently. In an instant, he swung it violently, and two thick crossbow arrows with murderous aura were hit by the shield and violently penetrated the stone slab in the house, half-entered, extremely violent.
At the same time, Lin Mu's right hand was not idle. He exerted force with his right hand, and swung the blade of the Dragon God Spear he held fiercely on the crossbow arrows.
Bang! Bang! With two sounds, the attack of the three crossbow arrows was defeated by Lin Mu, but it was not so easy for Lin Mu. The shield in his left hand had been shattered to the ground under the huge force and was scrapped!
In addition, there was a crack at the base of his left hand, and bright red blood came out. Lin Mu felt a strong tearing pain.
However, when Lin Mu felt the sting, the enemy's attack was still coming. Hearing four death-like sounds in the night sky, Lin Mu could only prepare to retreat and no longer stand in front of the catapult.
The enemy's attack was really brutal and beyond Lin Mu's expectation. Lin Mu cherished his life and jumped away!
Just when the soldiers on the Red Fire Catapult exclaimed, at the critical moment, a shield suddenly threw over and knocked four thick crossbow arrows horizontally away. In mid-air, the thick and tough crossbow arrows were actually broken, and then turned into powder and scattered in the air. It was so terrifying!
The attack of the four crossbow arrows failed to destroy the catapult.
It was Feng Zhong! Only Feng Zhong could create such a horrifying scene now.
Feng Zhong, who had reorganized the elite, returned here. After seeing the emergency, he shook his divine power and suddenly took action to save the Red Fire Catapult.
Lin Mu, who was in charge of the defense, was barely able to deal with three crossbow arrows. He staggered and was seriously injured.
"Huh! Fortunately, Feng Jin came here, otherwise this catapult would be lost!" Lin Mu shook his left hand gently to relieve the pain, and said to Feng Zhong with a touch of relief.
"The crossbow beds of these thieves are quite good. As long as we can survive a few rounds and wait for the catapult to destroy their crossbow beds, everything will be fine!" Feng Zhong said with a faint smile.
Sure enough, after Feng Zhong resisted this wave of attacks, no more brutal crossbow arrows appeared in the dark night. In this confrontation, Lin Mu's catapult won a big victory!
"My lord, the soldiers have been arranged. Five thousand elite soldiers are hidden in the central army. After the army attacks the city wall, they will be like a sharp knife, piercing the heart of the city lord's mansion!" Feng Zhong raised his weapon lightly, with a hint of murderous eyes.
"Okay! All troops, attack the city!" At the command, the soldiers of Feng Zhong suddenly rushed out of the street and charged.
Some of the soldiers of Feng Zhong were skilled in archery and horse riding. They shot arrows while running, constantly putting pressure on the defenders on the city wall. However, some of them accidentally injured friendly troops. Some soldiers of Dian Wei were entangled with the enemy after attacking the city wall, and were also innocently shot!
In the chaotic and noisy battlefield, there must be many cases of accidental injuries, but there was no commotion.
In reality, the three-meter-high city wall may be difficult to climb, but in the mythological world, the quality of each soldier is super strong, and it can be easily handled with a few kicks.
With the suppression of Dian Wei's troops, the soldiers of Feng Zhong easily climbed the city wall after paying a little price.
Next, as Feng Zhong planned, after climbing the city wall, Feng Zhong led Lin Mu and 5,000 elite soldiers to cross the city wall and jump into the inner palace.
Then, he summoned the dragon scale horse and ran towards the destination.
On this trip, Lin Mu’s goal was very clear, the national palace of Nanzhao Kingdom!
