Chapter 763: The Rich Trebuchet War

As Daniels expected, although the Condor Army has been winning now, and they have a great advantage in strength and strength, they are indeed the one who is eager to end the battle as soon as possible.

Because as more and more troops are transferred to the Guanzhong Basin, even if the Condor Army has grabbed the reserve grain on the Loess Plateau, their logistical pressure is still very great.

The autumn harvest season in the Northern Hemisphere is approaching.

After the new grain is harvested, it can relieve the logistical pressure of the Condor Army a little, but if it continues to drag on like this, the new grain is estimated to be consumed soon.

If the demon army dragged on the south bank of Weishui for a year and a half, then it would drag on for another half a year in those Shu roads in the Qinling Mountains, a few more months in the Hanzhong region, and another year and a half on the passage into Sichuan.

Then when the Condor Army invades the Sichuan Basin, I am afraid it will be four or five years later.

If it really took four or five years to attack Sichuan and Shu, then Ning Yuan would definitely end the war with the Demon Clan immediately.

Because his real enemy is the Northern Expedition Alliance, which is watching the excitement on the south bank of the Yellow River, not the demon clan who has been pushed to the fore by the Northern Expedition Alliance.

Although the Condor Empire and the Demon Clan were mortal enemies, Ning Yuan was not ready to fight the Demon Clan to the death at first.

It was the Northern Expedition Alliance that took the initiative to send the demon clan to the Condor Army through a series of behind-the-scenes operations.

Then the next thing is simple, after the two enemies of life and death collide head-on, they start fighting directly without any nonsense, and they both vow to kill each other.

It can be said that neither the Condor Empire nor the Demon Clan is ready to fight a life-and-death battle with each other.

However, both of them are enemies of life and death, and after colliding head-on, only one side can survive.

So even though neither of them was willing to go to war so early, they had to do everything in their power to defeat each other.

If the demon army had retreated directly to the Hanzhong region to defend to the death, then Ning Yuan would probably have stopped there, temporarily spared the demon clan, and let them live for a while.

However, the demon army retreated directly to the south bank of Weishui to build a defensive line, completely preparing to fight the Condor Army to the death.

Therefore, when the Condor Army launched the battle of crossing the river, the war between the Condor Empire and the Demon Clan was destined to not end easily.

Now the demon army has built a second line of defense with its back to Qinling, ready to carry out this kind of dead knock to the end.

And after Ning Yuan led the Silver Pegasus Legion to suffer heavy losses in the Qinling Mountains, there was only one tactic left for the Condor Army to use, and that was to launch a strong attack from the front.

Although Ning Yuan has always tried his best to avoid attacking the enemy's position head-on, this does not mean that the Condor Army's ability to attack the enemy head-on is not good.

In fact, the Condor Army's frontal attack ability has always been the best batch, but Ning Yuan does not want to see too many casualties in the army, so he has been trying his best to avoid it.

When all the tactics he could think of were declared unsuccessful, Ning Yuan didn't care about it, and directly ordered the major legions to press on all fronts, preparing to break through the position of the demon army from the front.

He wanted to tell Daniels with practical actions that he had only confronted each other before, because the Condor Army did not want to fight, and when the Condor Army wanted to fight, the fortifications they built were just a pile of wasteland, and they could not stop the Condor Army's progress at all.

Although this battle is destined to be unable to completely wipe out the demon army on the south bank of Weishui, Ning Yuan wants to let every demon warrior know through this battle:

Their so-called strongest race on the ground is nothing more than wishful thinking, and in front of the elite army of the Condor Army, their little strength is simply not enough.

......

After leaving enough troops to continue besieging the demon defenders in Baoji, Ning Yuan transferred all the other main battle infantry legions to the forward position.

At the moment when he decided to launch a strong attack from the front, Ning Yuan directly withdrew all the players of the Dragon Legion who were continuing to attack the second level in the Bao Slope Path.

The players of the Dragon Legion have been attacking for so many days in a row, but they still haven't been able to shake the demon defenders on the second level, and continuing to attack will only dampen the morale of the players.

And instead of sacrificing in vain, it is better to let the players continue to shine on the frontal position.

After all the major legions were in place, Ning Yuan immediately ordered the engineer regiment to push out the trebuchet that had been assembled, and then handed it over to the players of the Dragon Legion.

After receiving the trebuchet from the Engineer Regiment, the players of the Dragon Legion immediately pushed the trebuchet towards the demon army's position.

When they came within range of the enemy trebuchet, they were immediately hit mercilessly by the enemy's trebuchet position.

Under the dense rain of stone bullets, many players of the Dragon Legion were directly stoned to death, and most of the trebuchets they were pushing were also destroyed.

However, even this did not scare the players of the Dragon Legion pushing the trebuchet.

After being heavily bombarded by the enemy's trebuchet position, they immediately stopped their advance, then calmly refilled the trebuchet with elixir and launched a counterattack on the demon army's position.

It's just that without calibration, the stone projectiles fired by the players can't threaten the demon army's trebuchet positions at all, and the stone projectiles they fire can kill some hapless demon warriors is already very good.

After a few rounds of firefighting, most of the trebuchets pushed out by the players of the Dragon Legion were destroyed, and the players who pushed the trebuchets and stone-pushing carts were killed by thousands.

On the other hand, the demon army, except for some unlucky eggs who were killed by stone bullets, all the trebuchets on the battlefield were intact.

In the first wave of tentative long-range attacks between the enemy and the enemy, the demon army won a complete victory.

"How? Donnie, do you need me to send another batch of decoys? ”

On his own trebuchet position, Ning Yuan looked at the dwarf craftsman who was in charge of calibrating the trajectory of the trebuchet bomb, and asked.

"Back to Your Majesty, my calibration engineers and I have found the location of the enemy trebuchet position.

Now it only takes His Majesty to send a team of men to attract the first wave of enemy fire, and we will be able to destroy most of the enemy's trebuchets at once. ”

Hearing Ning Yuan's inquiry, Donnie replied with a confident face.

"Okay, then I'll send someone to help you attract the first wave of enemy fire."

Ning Yuan agreed to Donnie's request.

"Wang Gang, you lead three thousand Tenglong legion soldiers to push a hundred trebuchets and continue to shoot at the enemy." Ning Yuan commanded to the player general of the Dragon Legion behind him.

"Yes!"

After receiving Ning Yuan's order, Wang Gang immediately turned around and left.

Soon, Wang Gang led the players of the 3,000 Tenglong Legion to push a hundred trebuchets on the top.

After Wang Gang and the others entered the firing range, the trebuchet position of the demon army immediately opened fire.

In an instant, dozens of trebuchets were smashed by stone projectiles, and hundreds of players died.

And after the first wave of stone projectiles was fired from the trebuchet position of the demon army, another trebuchet force led by Donnie quietly appeared fifty meters behind Wang Gang.

"Attack."

After quickly filling the elixir and completing the calibration, Donnie immediately ordered the trebuchets on the Condor side to attack.

As countless stone projectiles were thrown into the air by trebuchets and then fell on the position of the demon army, hundreds of trebuchets of the demon army were destroyed in an instant.

"Hurry up, get me those trebuchets that are still intact, and move them to the rear."

Seeing that his trebuchet position had been devastated, the demon officer in charge of the command immediately shouted loudly.

Just now, he had always thought that the generals of the Condor Army who were in charge of commanding trebuchets were stupid, and sent them hundreds of trebuchets for them to smash.

When he saw the devastating blow to his trebuchet's position, he finally reacted.

It's not that the enemy's commanders are stupid, it's that the enemy has a lot of money, and some of them are trebuchets.

The 200 trebuchets that had just been delivered to the door were deliberately given to them by the Condor Army in order to find a position where they would place the trebuchets.

When the Demon Clan was lost in the continent, they had never seen a siege weapon like a trebuchet.

The trebuchets in their hands were given to them by strangers who had taken refuge in them.

Although after seeing the power of trebuchets, they also recruited a group of craftsmen who could master this skill, and now there are a number of craftsmen who can make trebuchets in the barracks.

But it will take at least several days to build a trebuchet, and at the current rate of destruction, it may be too late to build it on site.

So he had to do his best to save as many trebuchets as he could, otherwise they would be beaten without them.

The demon officer who commanded the trebuchet could understand this truth, how could Ning Yuan, who had personally designed this plan, not know this truth?

After devouting this plan of "having deep pockets and bullying others", Ning Yuan was already ready to make a move, and it was impossible for him to give the enemy any respite.

After successfully tricking out the first wave of enemy stone-throwing bombs, Ning Yuan looked at the sky at the first time.

When he saw the Seraphic Scout in the sky waving the red flag desperately, he immediately ordered another trebuchet force to press it down.

After deciding to launch a strong attack from the front, Ning Yuan immediately sent Seraphic warriors to reconnoiter the forward position of the demon army.

When he learned that there were less than 300 trebuchets left in the demon army's positions, he immediately decided to fight the enemy in a trebuchet battle.

The Condor Army assembled thousands of trebuchets on the south bank of Weishui, so Ning Yuan was very bold enough to use 200 trebuchets as bait.

In the end, he succeeded in deceiving the location of the demon army's trebuchet position, and then took advantage of his own large number of trebuchets to deal a devastating blow to the enemy's trebuchet position.

After learning that his own stone throwing had successfully destroyed a large number of enemy trebuchets, Ning Yuan decided to strike while the iron was hot and strive to directly break through the enemy's position today.

While the demon warriors were busy moving the trebuchet to the rear, Donnie commanded the trebuchet position to fire a second wave of stone projectiles.

Due to the heavy trebuchets of the demon army, after receiving the order, many demon warriors had just arrived at the trebuchet position and had not had time to transfer them.

So the second wave of stone projectiles fired by the Condor Army once again destroyed dozens of trebuchets of the demon army.

After being attacked in two waves, there were only a few dozen trebuchets left on the position of the demon army still intact, while there were still more than 700 left in the Condor army, and the demon army was no longer capable of continuing to suppress the Condor army in terms of long-range attacks.

As the members of the Condor Army Engineer Regiment continued to push the trebuchets onto the battlefield, hundreds of trebuchets were firing at full fire, and the positions of the demon army were bombarded indiscriminately.

Under the suppression of such unreasonable long-range firepower of the Condor Army, those demon defenders who were defending the forward positions were suddenly so pressed that they couldn't lift their heads.

Even the dozens of trebuchets that had been saved with great difficulty had once again suffered misfortune, and before they could be pushed out, they were smashed by boulders falling from the sky.

In the face of the unreasonable attack method of the Condor Army, Daniels, who was standing on the conning tower, had a solemn face.

"Come on, organize a death squad at once, rush over for me, and destroy the enemy's trebuchets."

Although reluctant to take the initiative, Daniels knew that if the Condor's trebuchets could not be destroyed, they would be able to bombard their positions as long as the Condor had enough stones.

Although the stone projectiles thrown by the trebuchets can't kill many people, if the enemy continues to bomb like this, the morale of the demon army will be greatly affected.

Therefore, no matter how reluctant he was, he had to send death squads to attack the enemy's trebuchet position, and he must not allow the enemy to attack so recklessly.

Soon, a demon death squad of 20,000 people was assembled in the rear.

Under the order of the demon commander who led the team, 20,000 demon warriors rushed to the trebuchet position of the Condor Army in the distance under the rain of stone bullets from the Condor Army.

After seeing that the enemy finally couldn't help but rush out, Ning Yuan smiled faintly and immediately ordered the Condor Guard, who had already arrived in the designated direction, to go up.

After receiving the order to act, the heavily armed Condor Guard immediately followed the gap between the trebuchets to the front of the trebuchet's position, and then used the giant shield and spear to set up a pinprick jungle array.

When the Condor Guards set up the formation, a group of Sappers of the Condor Army pushed large black iron boxes to the empty space left by the Condor Guards.

When the 20,000 demon death squad rushed to a distance of fifty meters from the needle-piercing jungle array posed by the Condor Guard, the sapper in charge of manipulating the iron box immediately pulled down the launch switch.

With a sharp sound of breaking the air, countless gaps suddenly appeared between the originally dense demon army formations, and those demon warriors in front of the iron box were all pierced by sharp crossbow arrows.

That is, after Hancheng, the Divine Eagle Army's hive ballista was once again powerful.

After seeing a large number of companions beside him fall directly, the demon warriors who survived were suddenly shocked into a cold sweat.

It's just that there is no time for them to think about any problems on the battlefield, so they can only stubbornly continue to rush forward.
