Chapter 93: Goblins and Werewolf Warriors
If you want to say that the Battle of Nottingham suffered the largest loss in the battle compared with the population of Nottingham at that time, then this battle will not be the first Battle of Nottingham, nor will it be the one that later invaded by the demons, but the one that happened at the end of March of the second year of the new calendar of the Sun Never Sets Empire, and the Battle of Nottingham City Defense since the beginning of that battle can be regarded as a real city defense battle, because since the beginning of that battle, The orcs who came to capture Nottingham did not just assign a large number of light infantry mixed with heavy infantry and light cavalry, but began to send a large number of cannon fodder light infantry, heavy infantry composed of the warrior class within the orc tribe, and several strong wolf cavalry light troops and ............ Swift assault orc death squads and goblin troops dedicated to siege the city!
As the secrets of the New Delhi Peninsula full of cream and juice spread in the orc fantasy of the northern orc tribes, there were as many as 4 large orc tribes and the rest of the small and medium-sized orc tribes were more than 10 figures. And what is different from the past is that the large orc tribe that came this time is not a single green-skinned orc tribe like before, but a mixed tribe mixed with all kinds of orcs, which also means that among these orc tribes, there will be one of the most common, but the most comprehensive danger for fortifications - goblins! And then Bobby was even more caught off guard by the fact that this mixed tribe also included one of the orcs in order to raid the ......... Or rather, the famous orc race with death squad tactics - werewolves.
Goblins have always held the profession of professional technicians in the orc forces, though to a certain extent, the things they create are very different and insecure. For example, these brain-pumping technicians once invented a slingshot-style machine called the "Orc Long-Range Fast Delivery Machine" that can throw their own fighters out of the woods, and it turned out that they did succeed, but this weapon can only be effective against those orcs with large tonnage, such as the Minotaur or the Mammoth, and it should be noted that although this machine is feasible, the insecurity inherent in goblin weapons makes this machine 30% feasible instead of 80% feasible. Because the quality of goblin brand products is never guaranteed, if the simple human trebuchet made by a goblin is fired more than 10 times, then these orcs who control the trebuchet are estimated to kneel down and be ecstatic for a long time, and even cry out, because it is a miracle that there are no casualties caused so many launches for them! Because 90% of the human trebuchets made by goblins can collapse into wood on their own after an average of 5 uses, and because of their huge size (such a short goblin actually makes trebuchets as tall as 5 stories every time), it can take some orc lives every time it collapses.
But in the same way, although the things made by the goblins have no durability, the weapons they make are absolutely terrifying in terms of power, at least the power of each of their trebuchets is equal to that of the combat machinery that Sun Lin can produce now, the most powerful heavy torsion trebuchet in all aspects is on par with the newly developed Spring Giant Crossbow, which is a giant crossbow that can only be installed on large stone towers, and requires 6 people to operate at the same time, which is a weapon specially used to combat enemy siege weapons, Each giant crossbow fires a 6-meter-long javelin about every 35 seconds, and if the point of attack is correct, the giant crossbow can instantly shoot a siege tower in two, and in order to match the God's blessed mountain valley underground, the giant crossbow can not only rotate, but also tilt the crossbow head 30% downward. Perhaps his only drawback is that the giant crossbow spins extremely slowly.
The power of being able to shoot through a siege tower in one blow can show how powerful this giant crossbow is, and the same is true of the human trebuchets made by the goblins, on the night of the end of March, that is, when the orcs are attacking the city, the goblin siege troops suddenly appeared under the horrified eyes of the human defenders, and dragged out more than 40 giant human trebuchets from the orc camp, although Bobby, who found out about this situation, was eager to send cavalry troops to raid outward, But after seeing the ant-like orc infantry legion behind more than 40 giant human trebuchets and the countless wolf riders on either side, Bobby had to give up and let the only five giant crossbows in Nottingham's territory carry out long-range strikes. Although the effect is good but the effect is not great, there are still about 30 giant human trebuchets were dragged to the designated position for projectile, as a result, in just over 30 seconds, the original solid stone wall (at this time Nottingham is still in the state of the castle, the resistance is not as good as the city wall in the fortress state) was instantly smashed in several places, and the towers equipped with medium-sized torsion trebuchets collapsed 4, according to the statistics after the war, under the first projection of the orc troops, a total of more than 100 human warriors without any defenses were killed on the spot, More than 170 people were killed or wounded, and five houses were damaged. Of course, in the same way, in a round of projectiles, a total of 6 trebuchets on the orc side collapsed after the projectile, killing more than 100 controllers, including more than 10 goblins, which can be regarded as a little comfort to the human side.
If you look at it from an ordinary point of view, each projectile damage is about 5, which counts the trebuchets that were shot by the giant crossbow point, the damage caused by these trebuchets is actually not large, at most it will cause hundreds of casualties, a few cracks in the city wall, and a few arrow towers will collapse. But this is from the perspective of humans, and from the perspective of the orc front, especially from the perspective of the new death squad in the orc army, the werewolf troops, these trebuchets have reached their strategic goals, and those walls that have been smashed out of the cracks by trebuchets have become the fastest way to climb the walls of Nottingham in the eyes of these werewolf warriors!
So in the next battle, under the surprised eyes of Bobby and a group of human soldiers, more than 1,000 werewolf warriors with short axes, fluffy wolf heads, and a height of more than 2 meters suddenly rushed out of the formation, rushed towards the walls of Nottingham, and then ............... The werewolves were immediately attacked by a storm of arrows, resulting in heavy casualties.
Nonsense, Bobby is not a fool, seeing this group of alternative orcs, Bobby's first reaction is of course to directly order the arrow to be shot, and even if Bobby doesn't say it, these longbowmen will shoot directly, because no archer can let a group of live targets shake in front of their eyes.
