Chapter 144: A Blockbuster
The atmosphere inside and outside the city of Diliang City is just as tense, although the besieging side is fully prepared, but it is still unknown whether it can capture this Diliang City.
As for the side defending the city, the mood is not much different from that of the True Demon King, Love Demon and Xiao Ning who are besieging the city. Although the defenders of the city are more dominant, generally speaking, if the besieging side is not a little sure, how can they take the initiative to provoke it, since it is to provoke, it must be to do everything well, including losses.
"Siege!"
The True Demon King doesn't want to delay more time, the demons of the Demon Realm are different from mortals, they don't need food and grass supplies, so it's useless to be sleepy, and they can only adopt a strong attack strategy.
In fact, the reason why the defending side of the city has an advantage is not because of the city wall itself, if it is just an ordinary city wall, the demon realm monk can completely jump over it. However, there is another role of this city wall that the Demon Realm monks cannot ignore, and that is the carrying of the city protection formation.
The base of the city protection formation will not be in the city wall, but this city wall is used to assist the city protection formation, and increase the city protection formation, it can be said that this city wall is under the shroud of the city protection formation, which poses a threat to the demons, and even a sharp weapon for attack.
Bo Bo ......
After the True Demon King ordered the siege of the city, the Demon Soldiers and Demon Generals separated from the concentration and divided into three teams. There are about 30,000 demon soldiers and demon generals led by the true demon king, and the remaining love demons have 20,000 demon soldiers and demon generals, and the love demons have also invested in this attack on Diliang City, although they are not as big as the real demon king's investment, but the demon soldiers and demon generals he brought are his own.
Xiao Ning took 10,000 demon soldiers and demon generals, he originally didn't have any manpower, it was allocated to him by the True Demon King, but now the overall combat effectiveness of these 10,000 demon soldiers and demon generals has increased a lot, and it is not even worse than the 30,000 demon soldiers and demon generals in the hands of the True Demon King.
Three teams attacked from different places.
Of course, the True Demon King was the main attacker, and the 30,000 demon soldiers and demon generals under his command attacked the main gate of Diliang City.
The 20,000 demon soldiers of the love demon attacked the north gate of Diliang City, while Xiao Ning's 10,000 demon soldiers attacked the west gate of Diliang City.
Xiao Ning, the Love Demon and the True Demon King attacked separately, and the Demon Soldiers and Demon Generals of Diliang City could only deal with them separately.
The number of demon soldiers and demon generals in Diliang City defending the city is actually not less than that of the demon soldiers and demon generals under the real demon king, and these demon soldiers and demon generals have both Diliang City's own generals and the strong reinforcements he invited.
"Kill!"
As the siege unfolded, there were also murderous voices inside and outside Diliang City.
Airplanes......
The Great Array of Earth Beam City Protectors began to operate, and a strong fluctuation spread.
Whether it is offensive or defensive, the beginning of the war is the most important. Once you start to take the initiative, then you will suppress the other party to fight, so that the morale of the demon generals will also be encouraged, on the contrary, the morale of the suppressed demon generals will inevitably be affected, and even impatience and even cowardice.
Obviously, both the offensive and defensive sides are well aware of the importance of the start of the big war, so when attacking and defending, they are doing their best.
Whoosh ......
The bow and crossbow are the best attack weapons, whether they are offensive or defensive, they can be covered with a bow and crossbow.
However, the bows and crossbows of the defending side were clearly sharper in this regard. It's not because of how strong the demon soldiers and demon generals on the defending side are, how strong the bow and crossbow are, but because of the formation of the city protector of Diliang City.
The protective formation of any city is not only defensive, but also has a strong offensive ability and the ability to assist the attack.
Although the invocation of the city protection formation to attack is powerful, the consumption is also large, so the defending side will not use it easily until the last resort, but it does not prevent them from using the city protection formation to assist the attack.
The main force of the auxiliary attack is to increase the attack power of the demons on the defending side, and increase the attack power of the defending side to produce a stronger combat power than the individual force.
The protective array of this Liangcheng also has such a function, so the bows and crossbows shot by the defenders of the city are sharper and more penetrating.
However, for the use of the Diliang City Protector Formation, whether it was Xiao Ning, the Love Demon or the True Demon King, they had already done their homework, because the function of this formation did not surprise them much.
Dangdangdang......
The sound of gold and iron resonating came out, and the arrows shot from the head of the city of Diliang City met the defensive shield of the besieging side.
Although the besieging side does not have the amplification of the protective formation, they can form a formation and rely on the transformation and amplification of the battle formation to increase their strength.
In addition, the shields in the hands of these demon soldiers are specially treated, and they are strong enough to withstand the attack of at least ten arrows from the defending side.
Ten arrows may not seem like a lot, but the battle formation is constantly changing, so it is difficult for arrows to attack ten times in a row at one point.
Of course, difficult is not absolute, some of the more unlucky demon soldiers encountered a rain of arrows, and the result was very tragic, and the destruction of the shield was also staged all the time.
At the beginning of the battle of power and defense, it seemed to be different from what was expected, the attacking side became a defense, and the side that should be defending became an attack, as if the cart was turned upside down. However, in reality, this is not the case, and siege warfare is different from ordinary general confrontations, in that the defending side is generally the first to attack, and the besieging side suffers more casualties than the defending side.
The reason is also simple, because the defending side occupies a favorable position, and in addition to being attacked by surprise, they tend to inflict more damage on the besieging side.
However, this kind of loss is generally within the scope of consideration of the besieging side, and they also allow their own side to lose more, so don't look at the current besieging side being suppressed, what the final result will be, but it is not certain.
"Attacking ......"
The first to prepare for the attack on the besieging side was the True Demon King, and the demon soldiers and demon generals under his command were all elite, even much stronger than the 10,000 demon soldiers allocated to Xiao Ning, so although they suffered the most attacks, the speed of completing the first counterattack was also the fastest.
Whoosh ......
The first round of counterattack by the True Demon King's siege demon army was also a bow and crossbow.
However, the arrows shot by the True Demon King's team were different from those of the defenders of Diliang City.
This kind of arrow is called "piercing the clouds and breaking the ground" arrow, the arrow is very kind, and it is engraved with a small formation, it shoots very well, and it has an acceleration function when it falls, and it can penetrate the slightly weaker formation defense, which is a sharp weapon for siege.
Of course, the power of this "Cloud Piercing and Breaking the Earth" arrow is strong, and the price is also very high, and the True Demon King showed this kind of arrow, which also shows his determination to win the Earth Beam City this time.
"Ah......h
I have to say that there is indeed a reason for the fame of the "Piercing Clouds and Breaking the Earth" arrows, and it can also be said that it is well deserved, the first wave of arrows from the True Demon King to penetrate the clouds and break the ground has achieved results, although the demons who defend the city in Diliang City are also prepared, but it is not easy to prevent these arrows, so the city was also screaming for a while.
Sometimes that's it, you know that there are threats to many things, and you will take the initiative to prevent them, but there is no 100% thing in war, and even if you are prepared, there will still be losses.
"Attacking ......"
The True Demon King's attack had just come to an end, and the attack order of the Love Demon had also been issued.
Whoosh ......
It is still an arrow that "pierces the clouds and breaks the ground", and the love demon is also prepared, and this siege is also related to his vital interests, so of course he must do his best.
The attack of the True Demon King of Love Demon made the situation turn around, and two waves of "Piercing the Clouds and Breaking the Earth" arrows came down, which had already caused a lot of losses to the human demons guarding the Earth Liang City.
However, whether it was the True Demon King or the Love Demon, there was no relaxed expression on his face at this time.
Although their "Piercing the Clouds and Breaking the Earth" arrows have achieved some results, they have not made the demon soldiers and demons guarding the city of Liangcheng break their muscles and bones, and this kind of "Piercing the Clouds and Breaking the Ground" is very valuable, and they can't prepare too much, and although most of this thing falls on the city wall, some of it can still be used, if it is collected by the demons guarding the city, it will also become a weapon against them, so whether it is a true demon king or a love demon, they can't be happy at this time.
"Attacking ......"
After the True Demon King and the Love Demon completed the first round of counterattacks one after another, Xiao Ning also gave the order to attack here.
He has a small number of demon soldiers here, so he has to prepare to attack, and the speed is a little slower.
Whoosh ......
It is still an arrow that "pierces the clouds and breaks the ground", but Xiao Ning's momentum here is obviously not as strong as that of the True Demon King and the Love Demon.
Boom Boom Boom ......
"Ah......h
"What is this, how can it still explode!"
"It's on fire, what kind of fire is this?
“......”
However, although Xiao Ning's momentum when attacking here was not as strong as that of the True Demon King and the Love Demon, the results achieved were much greater than that of the True Demon King and the Love Demon.
It turned out that Xiao Ning also knew that he was the weakest of the three siege teams, although the True Demon King gave him enough support, but it was inevitable that he still put the main strength on himself, so Xiao Ning had to think of another way.
His method is actually not complicated, that is, when training the soldiers of the human demon clan, the weapons used in the siege of the city were transformed, and for this reason, Xiao Ning used the water demon clan and the wind demon clan that were subdued in the Tianji Tower.
In fact, the transformation is not complicated, that is, an additional formation is added to the siege weapons, and a thing is added behind the arrow of the "Piercing the Cloud and Breaking the Earth" arrow.
This thing is a small round bead, just like an elixir, this thing is a pill, but it is not a medicine, but the Five Elements True Fire Pill refined by Xiao Ning himself, and it is an enhanced version, the Great Five Elements True Fire Pill that will explode by itself.
This Great Five Elements True Fire Pill has two effects, one is to self-detonate and produce greater destructive power, and the other is to avoid the demon clan defending the city from recycling and reusing the "Cloud Piercing and Breaking the Earth" arrow. The self-detonating "cloud-piercing and ground-piercing" arrows, even the arrows and arrow shafts were all blown up, and naturally it was impossible to be recycled.
It was also this Great Five Elements True Fire Pill that caused the demons defending the city to suffer heavy losses, and even the city walls were blown up into a gap.
"This guy is amazing!"
Whether it was the True Demon King or the Love Demon, after feeling the movement on Xiao Ning's side, they all sent their men to investigate, and the result naturally surprised these two demons, I don't know how Xiao Ning came up with such an offensive method.
"Send them all the remaining cloud-piercing arrows we have left, and now the strategy has changed, attack from there!"
After learning about the situation on Xiao Ning's side, the True Demon King and the Love Demon made the same decision almost at the same time, that is, to put the focus of the attack on Xiao Ning's position.
