Chapter 812: The Coalition's Killer Weapon - Mage Payne!

"Boom, boom, boom!!"

The sound of explosions continued to come, and the rain of flying stones and arrows filled the entire sky, and as far as the eye could see, the siege troops outside the city stretched for dozens of miles, and the specific number of people participating in the siege was too many to count.

The biggest siege battle since the launch of the Beacon service has finally broken out!

The eastern wall of Xinyue City became the key target of the coalition forces, and the enemy army rushed in like a wave, and then was repulsed by the Pingzhou army, leaving corpses in one place.

In several key attack areas, mountains of corpses several meters high have been piled up at the base of the city wall. That is, the will of the army in the beacon fire to fight is far beyond reality, otherwise the siege battle is so tragic that the soldiers would have collapsed in fright.

"Target, Dongjihai District, three rounds of covering attacks!"

On the city walls, a minor colonel of the Mechanics Regiment commanded his soldiers to control the catapult.

Because there are too many large-scale defense equipment, the Combat Regiment, which is a professional, is no longer enough, so the ordinary soldiers of the Combat Regiment, as small commanders, can lead the field regiment and Yellow Turban auxiliaries to control the city defense equipment.

Although the power and attack efficiency of this equipment are slightly reduced, it can make the most of the massive defense equipment and kill and injure the enemy as much as possible.

Under the command of the commander of the mechanic squad, the non-commissioned officers dressed in various armor and costumes operated one after another stone-throwing trucks and aimed at the Jihai area.

"Three, two, one, put!"

With the order of the junior colonel in charge, dozens of torches smashed into the enemy position with the sound of whistling wind, and the iron cannon that was constantly spitting projectiles immediately fell silent.

However, in the process, three Pingzhou defense equipment were also damaged, and dozens of soldiers were injured or killed in battle.

And this is just an inconspicuous corner of the siege war, all kinds of offensive and defensive equipment are constantly competing, you come and go, beacons are all over the sky, corpses are everywhere, and there are mutual injuries.

However, the Pingzhou Army occupies a favorable geographical position, and the average sophistication of equipment also exceeds that of the coalition army, and the ratio of equipment loss in the process of bombardment with the enemy army is basically maintained at about 1:5.

Since entering the National War Continent, Shang Ji has been making preparations for defense, and after the Holy Grail is in hand, the manufacture of garrison equipment has become the top priority of the Pingzhou Army.

Relying on the production efficiency of the Death Continent to three times and the massive life and production players supported by Yan Huang, plus the Gongyi family in command, the Pingzhou Army has produced more than 100,000 pieces of various large-scale garrison equipment in the past few months.

Relying on these garrison equipment, the six giant cities in the Pingzhou Military District were simply armed into hedgehogs, and Xinyue City, which was a key defense target, became an iron hedgehog!

The coalition forces stormed for three days, leaving only countless corpses, and Xinyue City was still as stable as Mount Tai!

Unlike the Pingzhou Army, which has always sent soldiers to attack the city at close range without clearing the threat of enemy long-range artillery fire, the coalition army commanded large engineering siege equipment to carry out long-range attacks on the city walls and the city walls, and also sent a large number of troops to attack the city with the most traditional and inefficient method of ant attachment!

However, in the face of the heavily defended Xinyue City, the enemy's ant-attached siege almost became a "suicidal" siege, and the most common situation was that the enemy army was killed in the middle of the road by violent arrows before they could rush to the root of the city wall.

Not even the hoplites who defended their lives were not enough, and the walls were not only ordinary archers, but also densely packed with bed crossbows. This kind of bed crossbow relies on the strength of the machine, the structure is complex, the body is huge, it needs a huge territory as a support, the mobility is basically zero, and there is almost no actual combat value in the field, but it is fixed on the city wall for defense, and the effect is outstanding!

Even a high-ranking hoplite who is directly hit by these bed crossbows can have the effect of a sugar gourd, and if you are lucky, you can pierce four or five enemy soldiers.

And this kind of machine bed crossbow is also one of the few kinds of equipment with practical value made by the public loser with reference to the real mechanical theory, combined with the special rules of the beacon fire.

There are blasting torch carts, stone throwing carts, and various types of large crossbow machines, including bed crossbows, and a large number of archers. Even if you are lucky enough to rush to the root of the city wall, there are things like slapping rods, falling logs, and rolling stones to greet you.

In short, the siege war of the coalition army is quite hard, hundreds of people are killed every minute and every second, but it is still far from breaking through the city!

"According to the order, the eighty-fifth and eighty-seventh corps withdrew, but the two corps suffered heavy losses. Especially the 85th Army Corps, there are less than 50,000 surviving soldiers and more than half of the casualties! ”

In the coalition camp, an officer reported to the generals in the tent with a blank face.

"We can't go on like this, in just three days, we have lost more than two million troops, and at this rate, we will be wiped out in one month!"

The representative of the Swiss district stood up with some anger and said, and the representative of the Dutch district nodded again and again.

It's not that the two regions have suddenly reconciled, but that the vast majority of the two million troops lost in three days came from their two regions!

In siege warfare, few people will choose to send the elite main force to the siege

Unfortunately, the armies of the two districts of Ruihe are the bottom cannon fodder army within the coalition army, and this kind of hard work naturally falls on their heads.

In order to escape the fate of being cannon fodder, the two regions had to temporarily unite against the current siege plan.

"If not, what can we do?"

The Chilean representative said coldly, but when he spoke, his eyes kept sweeping to the Brazilian representative who looked up, obviously it was Brazil that could really make up his mind, and Chile was just a mouthpiece.

The Yiduli representatives, on the other hand, looked at their noses and noses, and did not seem to hear the following arguments. Although Italy has formed an alliance with Switzerland and the Netherlands, the alliance is very loose, and if it wants to help the two regions of Sweden and the Netherlands get out of the sea of suffering, it is likely to cause damage to Italy's own interests, and the representatives of the Italian region will naturally not be so noble.

"We don't care, if we continue this senseless sacrifice, our two countries will refuse to send troops to war again!"

The representatives of the two districts of Ruihe suddenly became a little angry when they saw that everyone looked disapprehant. The two glanced at each other and said in unison the words they had prepared a long time ago.

"Huh??"

The people in the big tent were all shocked, and the representative of Yi Duli frowned even more, and said unhappily: "Mr. Ingnazio, Mr. Simoneta, do you know what you are talking about?" ”

"Of course, we know what we say and do, and we can guarantee that everything we say is authorized by the domestic parliament!"

"What are you going to do?"

"Traitor!"

"Coward!"

……………………

As soon as the words fell, a righteous rebuke immediately sounded in the big tent, but if you listen carefully, you can find that this rebuke seems to be a little panicked

The representatives of the two districts of Ruihe changed their previous cowering appearance, raised their heads slightly, looked at everyone with disdain, and ignored the accusations and abuses around them!

However, I have to admit that hooliganism can sometimes be really useful, especially at times like these.

Although the two armies have suffered heavy losses these days, the combined forces of the two armies still have more than 7 million troops, more than a third of the total strength of the coalition forces.

Once they withdraw from the alliance, the total strength of the coalition forces on the Eastern Front will drop to 12 million, and the strength advantage will be greatly weakened.

If the two armies of Rui and Dutch had done more ruthlessly and directly turned to the side of the Pingzhou army, then the coalition forces on the Eastern Front could basically be declared annihilated.

Of course, unless forced to do so, the Swedish and Dutch armies will not choose this path, after all, if they take refuge in Shangji, it means that they can only rely on others in the future, and the end will not be much better than Poland and Peru, which surrendered before.

However, looking at the expressions of the two representatives of the dead pig who are not afraid of boiling water, the two main countries of Brazil and Italy are also a little painful, and they really have nothing to do when they encounter this kind of shameless 25 countries!

The two delegates looked at each other for a moment, then nodded lightly, and the Brazilian representative hesitated for a moment, and then whispered an order in the adjutant's ear.

In the midst of everyone's astonished gaze, half an hour later, a mysterious man wrapped in a black cloak appeared in the big tent, and the Brazilian representative cleared his throat and stood up and said, "Everyone, please allow me to introduce to you, this is the killer of our trip, the undead tyrant Master Payne Makat!" ”
