Chapter 53: Death Fire Zone

Of course, if the rain of rubble could really kill an orc warrior by one, maybe Sun Lin would still have a smile on his face at this time, but it turned out that this was impossible. The rain of rubble caused a certain degree of deterrity to the enemy, as was the case with the hand cannons of the late Middle Ages, and was far more deterrent to the enemy than it was to the enemy.

When a large number of fist-sized gravel that was polished into a diamond-shaped shape with a relatively sharp appearance fell into the orc troops, the sharp sharp horns instantly cut the heads of many orcs, and the more gravel shattered instantly after hitting the ground, turning into countless sharp stones into the legs of the surrounding orcs, but this is the best result that the gravel can do, and the orcs who can really die in this rain of rubble are not even 2, but there are more than 100 orcs who have been injured to varying degrees, But these wounds didn't have much effect on the rough-skinned orcs who were not afraid of death, at most they just slowed down the advance of some orc light infantry, and even there were bursts of laughter in the orc troops, but in the next moment, when five loud noises came from the sky above the orc troops, these arrogant orcs all closed their mouths.

When 15 medium-sized trebuchets threw a large amount of gravel rain at the orc troops, the same 5 heavy trebuchets were also controlled by more than 20 engineers to throw 5 incendiary barrels out of the coffin, but because this is a single weapon, it needs to measure all aspects of data before it can be launched, so the arrival of these burning barrels is later than the gravel rain, but in terms of power, it is definitely several times stronger than the gravel rain.

"Boom, boom, boom!" Five loud bangs rang out one after another, and the barrels filled with crude oil shattered in the explosion, while a large number of burning sparks fell from the sky carrying wood residues and other objects, and from a distance it looked like a rain of fire, but these fire rains had one more thing than ordinary rain, and that was terrifying lethality.

No matter what kind of oil they are, they all have a characteristic, that is, they are not easy to be directly extinguished by water, and besides, where does the water come from in this huge wasteland? So when some unlucky orcs are touched by the falling sparks, the result is the same, that is, the whole body immediately burns up and becomes a mass of charred meat, and those sparks that fall to the ground also ignite the legs of many orcs around, and the unlucky ones become charred meat, and the lucky ones roll on the ground to extinguish the fire on their bodies, and are trampled into meatloaf by the other orc light infantry who can't stop the charge. The original team of more than 6,000 people instantly had many small holes emitting black smoke and flashing red light.

However, although the lethality caused by the 5 heavy trebuchets was extremely impressive, this did not break the confidence of the orc troops, on the contrary, after seeing the death of their companions, these orcs were all aroused by the blood like those half-orcs last time, and they were divided into two teams with red eyes, and under the leadership of the orc light infantry commander with stronger combat power and taller stature, they divided into two orcs and rushed towards the target. The trebuchet on the edge of the "God Blessed" cliff continued to throw a rain of rubble to block the orcs' advance, but at this time, the only thing that Sun Lin did not expect but made sense happened: "Damn! Are all those heavy trebuchets falling apart? Medium-sized trebuchets have already thrown the third round for 10 seconds, and they only have a second round, isn't that a deliberate attempt to drag the battle? ”

"But, but under Sun Linmian, those burning barrels are not so easy to fill, for the sake of safety, those heavy trebuchets have to take off the throwing belt after each launch to reabsorb water, and those burning barrels that have been carried over also need to go through a short treatment before they can be released into the throwing belt, you must know that if you accidentally burst a burning barrel, the entire stone tower will be ignited! So please also ask Sun Linmian to calm his anger. A certain engineer standing on the side wiped the cold sweat on his body and quickly explained that although Sun Lin was still a benevolent king and was very good to the people under his rule, the same Sun Lin was also a dictator and was extremely strict with his soldiers.

"Humph! Forget it, anyway, the initial goal has been achieved, the enemy is about to enter the distance of 45 yards, pass the order, tell the longbowmen to start moving! Shoot arrows or something casually, and be sure to hit the orc troops with all your might. ”

With the height of the cliff, the longbowmen's attack range was nearly doubled, while the scattered but large ranks of orcs and the random consumption of arrows in the stone tower made the longbowmen completely ignore the mistake on their heads, and as soon as the orc troops advanced to the range of the longbows, the 220 longbowmen guarding the various parts of the "God Blessed" canyon immediately unleashed long-range strikes. Countless iron arrows were shot out by the longbowmen one by one as if they didn't want money, piercing through the orc light infantry who didn't even have decent leather armor, and the orc light infantry had no armor at all, and in an instant, the casualty rate of the two teams of orc torrents soared up in an instant.

After the stone rain is followed by a rain of arrows, after the rain of arrows is a rain of fire, but this is not over, because when the orc troops advanced another 50 yards, as the winning weapon of the last Nottingham Wooden Fort District, the scorpion crossbow also began to rotate under the control of many engineers, the only regret is that although the scorpion crossbow after more than 1 month of testing and improvement, the original weapon was changed from a large crossbow arrow to a cast iron javelin, which strengthened the lethality of the scorpion crossbow to a certain extent, And in the most primitive of the scorpion crossbow head, the aiming point made of three wooden strips (Zhilu Dao equilateral triangle?) If you know the way, then you should know the principle of the sight, the point where the vertical line drawn by the 3 corners intersects is the red heart) is to increase the accuracy of the scorpion crossbow by as much as 40%, but unfortunately the hero is useless, because the formation of the orc team is extremely scattered, so that each time the cast iron javelin shot can only kill 2 orc light infantry at most, if you can shoot 3 in a row is lucky, 4 is stepping on shit, 5 is God and his old man has descended again. However, in general, the shooting speed of the improved scorpion crossbow was still very satisfactory to Sun Lin, and the damage caused was also very considerable.

"300 yards.............200 yards............... 100 yards, huh, it seems that in the end, we will have to fight with these orcs for the city wall, this is really a bad situation, you must know that there are at least more than 3,000 orc infantry on the other side who have not joined the battle............... But maybe it's better than the city of Nottingham, and there's a more horrible area of death fire there...................
