Almighty Lord of Another World

Chapter 280: 2 attacks

The cannon slammed into gold as soon as possible. Had it not been for Aiwen to need this kind of scene to boost morale, he wouldn't want to expose the weapon of the cannon so early.

The other two fortresses were also shelled under the command of the Helena sisters, and the effect was effective. Not only did the enemy and us both horrified, but it also made the coalition forces full of confidence in this war.

But cannonballs are too expensive. Instead of old-fashioned solid round bullets, we use new multi-purpose cannonballs for different purposes. Even the dwarves are exquisite in craftsmanship, and it takes a lot of time to make a cannonball.

The big guys in the Three Kingdoms front arm inquired about the performance and price of this weapon. After understanding, people thought that other than the three empires could not afford such a price.

One of the biggest benefits after the cannon rang was that the half-orcs no longer dared to walk under the fort in groups, because there was a large gap between the teams. Kamal Corussa believed that the reason why the loss was so large just now was because the orcs were too dense, allowing the opponent to seize the opportunity to greatly weaken it.

And Aiwen wants to force the Orcs to abandon the big group and charge, so that the fortress defense pressure is not so great. If the Orcs are refueling tactics, then the soldiers of the Three Kingdoms Front Army who come to practice can calmly face this war.

The second attack began. Orc warriors sparsely spread across the frontal battlefield of the fortress. There were many shamans and axe-throwing warriors among them. The former was the gain state of the Orc warriors, and the latter was the cover for the siege.

In the face of this loose offensive formation, although there are a lot of people, there is no momentum bonus from the formation, so that the people in the fortress are calm, and they calmly start the steps of defending the fortress. It’s time to shoot arrows and prepare. The preparation of rolling wood and stone rolling wood and stone, everything is proceeding in an orderly manner.

The half-orcs running chaotically under the fortress only gathered together when they were a hundred steps closer to the city wall, forming small groups and rushing up.

After the shelling was over, the cannon was evacuated from the position, leaving only ten full scenes. The original shooting window was occupied by the elf marksman. For the scattered enemy targets, they were still holding special sniper bows. The troops deal with it best.

Although the deterrence of the cannons made the Orcs dare not press the territory with large troops, this still couldn't change the fierce situation of the siege battle at the beginning.

The half-orc warrior with the added state roared and climbed upwards. Sometimes there were several arrows in his body without slowing down until his head was penetrated by the arrow of the wizard marksman before falling under the ladder.

There are many military commanders in the Three Kingdoms Front Army who are watching the battle, and they are also very interested in the structure of the three fortresses.

Different from the mainstream castle structure, the three fortresses are designed with bastions. Every 30 meters, there will be a protruding corner arranged like teeth. This design allows the attackers to be defended at any angle. The arrow of the person covered it, and there was no way to hide. If the attacker succeeds in climbing the wall at the corners, he will find his footing is very small when he comes up, and the defender can easily organize a lineup three times as large as his own to eliminate or drive the climber down.

Therefore, this kind of bastion is the best fort design for defensive warfare. It has no major shortcomings except for the long construction time and high cost.

The five hundred elf sharpshooters on the second floor of the fort have been rotated twice. They have the highest killing efficiency in the defensive battle, reaching a kill rate of about 50%, followed by the human crossbowmen. After all, humans do not have the natural movement vision and tracking skills of elves, but they can also take away two or three half-orcs with ten arrows.

From time to time, axe-throwing warriors hiding in the group of orc warriors succeeded in sneak attacks, and soldiers of the First Army began to suffer casualties.

Camal Corusa, who was watching the battle from a distance, ordered: "Let ten stone-slinging giants test it out and see if they can attack the wall from a safe distance."

The attendant turned to convey the order, and soon saw a group of stone-slinging giants walking forward, behind them were several large carts pushed by the orc warriors, loaded with huge stones.

Coming to the edge of the area hit by the saturated shell just now, the ten stone-sling giants over five meters high were a little nervous. The so-called standing tall and looking far, their height is just right to have a panoramic view of the situation they were bombarded just now, so at this time they also dispersed and marched forward like the previous siege team, hoping that the magic flame on the opposite side would not come. To them.

However, the sling giants are destined to not be fast, they can be appropriately flexible, but the carts that transport ammunition can't keep up with their weird footsteps, they can only bite the bullet and move straight forward, and when they enter the attack position, they will let the sling giants come and fetch the boulders by themselves. Right.

"Come to work, come to work!"

The gunners of the remaining ten cannons in the fort found the target without prompting. It was too conspicuous.

The artillery commander picked up the binoculars that had been popularized in the First Army and observed for a while, and said to the remaining artillery groups: "Your ten artillery groups ~www.ltnovel.com~ have the best training results, but are they okay? It still needs to be tested in actual combat. Now the ten big guys on the opposite side are your targets this time. This time they are hitting moving targets from a long distance. If the gun group hits the target first, you will get a day’s vacation, Lord Irwin. A bottle of special wine!"

"Long live!"

The ten artillery members cheered loudly. For the soldiers of the First Army, fame and fortune were not their pursuit, but the desire to speak without affecting their faith was still very necessary. As a result, Aiwen also adjusted the form of commendation for outstanding personnel. While the original benefits remained unchanged, food and wine rewards were added. As a result, the First Army started a small climax of military training.

The artillery crew is in place, the No. 2 drug bag, and the armor-piercing projectile are ready. This type of armor-piercing projectile is a shelled hard-core armor-piercing projectile, with a layer of two metal shells on the outside, and a thin layer of brass as a hoop. After the projectile is launched, the brass is worn and consumed by friction in the barrel. As soon as the shell came out of the chamber, the two shells fell off by air resistance, leaving only the needle-shaped projectile inside to fly forward. The advantage of this kind of armor-piercing projectile is that it has high shooting accuracy and long range.

The gunners in the gun crew are all outstanding in the selection, and they are quite skilled in real-time calculations. They all held their breath, locked their own target with the gun sight, and then slowly adjusted the cannon's shooting parameters to wait for the opportunity. The deputy next to him was holding the hammer in his hand, his eyes fixed on the gunner's other hand, as long as the signal was sent, the hammer would instantly fall to trigger the cannon and fire the deadly shell.

At this moment, even the elven marksmen not far away slowed down their firing speed, and they wanted to see how this sharp weapon could kill those behemoths.
