Chapter 204: Battle to defend the city

With the efforts of Aragon, Legoras, Jinpi and the elves, the ladder on this city wall was pushed away again, and a long list of orcs on the ladder fell under the city wall in exclamation.

On the command tower of the Fortress of the Horn Fortress, Xiyoudon calmly directed the human swordsman to kill these orcs who rushed in through the support channel within the city wall. He was not surprised that the orcs could break up to the city wall. At this moment, the siege battle was originally fought.

There are several passages in the city wall of Holy Helmet Valley that can quickly transport swordsmen with strong melee ability to top up. The swordsmen are wearing one-piece chain mail and holding iron shields and steel swords. They have strong melee ability. Even if they cannot defeat the elite orcs who kill the city wall, they can rely on their defense to hold back the orcs who kill the city wall, and then shoot the arrows on the city wall. Even if the strong orcs who rushed up are strong, they can only die.

The defense gradually resisted the orcs who were killed by the siege ladders, and four ladders on the city wall were pushed away.

However, the battle was still going on. The orcs did not give up and put the pushed siege ladder onto the city wall again. The orcs under the city wall quickly climbed up along the ladder like ants, climbing the six-meter-high city wall. It would take more than ten seconds to speed these orcs.

The warriors of the Holy Helmet Valley Castle and the orcs of Saruman fought on the city walls. Gradually, the defense won the advantage of defensive battle with the powerful combat power of the swordsman who quickly supported the swordsman, Aragon, Legoras and Jinpi.

However, the orcs had many attacks. In addition to the orcs climbing the siege ladder, a group of orcs used their shields to protect a car crashing in the city, and rushed towards the city gate along the stone slope leading to the gate of the Holy Helmet Valley.

The orcs carried the arrow rain of the elves defending the elves archers near the gate of the Holy Helmet Valley. After sacrificing nearly a hundred orcs, they finally relied on the protection of the iron shield formation and pushed the rushing city into the gate of the Holy Helmet Valley Castle, and began to push the rushing wood with iron heads to the rushing wood gate.

Inside the city gate were more than a hundred strong swordsmen supporting the city gate with their bodies to prevent the city gate from being knocked out by the car that rushed to the city gate.

The Gate of the Holy Helmet Valley also has a special defensive means. A wooden skateboard is built above the city gate, which allows the defense to smash stones down through these skateboards. Several young recruits struggled to lift a few seemingly small stones, put them on the skateboard, and then fell along the skateboard to the orc holding a shield in front of the city gate.

The weight of these stones was extremely heavy. When they hit the shield held by the orc, they immediately caused the shield to split. When they hit the orc's iron armor, they would also cause the iron armor to be concave.

Many orcs were hit and screamed and turned to the ground. However, soon the orcs were added with arrow rain and stones, and the battle in front of the city gate gradually became fierce, no less than the defensive battle on the city wall.

The gate of the Holy Helmet Valley Castle is made of special iron wood. Under the continuous impact of the car, the door panels are fine, but the entire stone door frame is loose, and tiny gravels and stone powder are spilled down from time to time, making people worry about the safety of the city gate.

The comprehensive siege battle made everyone in the Holy Helmet Valley Castle nervous, and the screams and the collision of swords sounded in a whole circle.

The bloody battlefield produced a forceful evil spirit, causing the siege and defense to fall into blood-red killings, and only a few heroes could maintain a little bit of rationality.

Hievon, who was located on the command tower of the Fortress of the Horn Fortress, looked at the entire battle situation with a cold expression. The combat power of the Orc Legion burst out made him feel worried.

Although as a defensive party in the siege, the losses of the Rohanate Kingdom are far less than those of the orcs, even if they kill a thousand enemies, they will lose three or four hundred themselves. Until now, the Rohanate Kingdom relies on experienced veterans to fight against the orcs. If the veterans die, the combat effectiveness of the defensive party will definitely drop by more than 50%. At that time, facing the orc legion with thousands of people outside the city wall, can it still stand like this?

But the current situation can only allow veterans to stand in front. Now the Orcs are in full swing. If the attack cannot be blocked, the Holy Helmet Valley Castle will really allow Saruman's Orcs to conquer it in one fell swoop.

Hiyoudon couldn't help but sweep his eyes across the battlefields of the castle again, but he said to himself, "Saruman, do you have the only way to do this? If it's just like this, let you taste the hard rock of my Rohan Kingdom! Even if we fight one by one, we will resist to the end."

It has to be said that the defensive ability of the Holy Helmet Valley Castle does make the orcs feel as difficult as gnawing stones under the current situation.

With the tenacious combat effectiveness of the thousand trained veterans in the Holy Helmet Valley Castle, more than three hundred elves archers, three hundred guard knights, and several Aragons, thousands of orcs were repelled from attacks again and again.

If there is no special change in fighting like this, the morale of the orcs will disappear. If they lose their momentum, their strength to attack the city will not be as strong as it is now. They can only retreat and rest before they can continue to attack the city.

The city wall was densely filled with orcs. They held up their shields and formed a shield wall under the city wall, which could not only resist the bows and arrows shot from the city wall, but also block the actions of orcs under the shield wall.

Some orcs holding shields were shot down by bows and arrows, and soon other orcs were filled with shields, which made the ground outside the city wall seem to be lifted two meters high.

Under the cover of the shield wall, where the canal in the Helmet Valley city wall is located, the orcs are secretly tampering, just as the original plot of the movie, Saruman knew the flaws of the Helmet Valley castle from the beginning and was ready to use this canal to explode the city wall with **.

Just when the orcs were in a stalemate, they were secretly preparing the means to break the city, but the defense party could not take into account the orcs' conspiracy in the chaos.

Even Hyoudon, who had received a reminder, did not notice the conspiracy hidden under the shield wall.

At this time, the orc was still taking out the stream and transporting ** to the canal under the city wall. The suicide-like orc raising fire naturally disappeared under the orc's shield wall, and naturally it would not be discovered by Aragon like in the plot.

Fortunately, others will forget it, and those who are familiar with the plot, such as Zhu Lingsan and others, will not forget it. At this time, their position is on the ditch.

In the entire battle situation, the orcs deliberately weakened their offensive relatively and did not build siege ladders here, so the Rohanguo soldiers who were defending the city wall ignored their attention here.

But Zhu Lingsan and the others carefully monitored the actions here. Just as the orcs were transporting bags of bags wrapped with iron blocks from behind to the ditches under the city wall through the cover of the shield array, Zhu Lingsan's team took action.

In fact, before this, Yu Mingxia, Lai Yanming and others had already joined the defensive battle on the city wall. In such a battle situation, of course, they could not stand here with no action.

Even if they didn't want to do it, there were still ignorant orcs who were alive and dead to kill them, so the assault guns in their hands had already sounded, helping the Rohanate soldiers and elves on the city walls to shoot the orcs rushing up.

Just when the orcs broke into the camp of elf archers and killed elves, the elf noble general Halda, who led the elf archers to support this time, would die at the hands of the orcs, but now he is still safe and soundly shooting the orcs with the bow and arrow in his hand.

This is of course the result of Yu Mingxia, Lai Yanming and others who are familiar with the plot, taking special care of protection. Considering the requirements of the Heavenly Dao mission, the three key plot characters of Aragon, Legolas and Golden Pi must be protected. It is only a small task to protect Harda who is with them.

In fact, the assault guns in their hands did not have much effect when facing the shield formation formed by the orcs under the city wall. Instead of wasting bullets on these iron shields, it was better to shoot orcs who climbed up along the siege ladder. Besides, their dozen guns faced the ant-like orc army under the city wall, which was just a drop in the bucket. It was better to concentrate on shooting orcs who broke into the city wall, so that they could reflect the lethality of their assault guns.

So what were Zhu Lingsan and the others doing to the orcs under the city wall who planned to blow up the city wall?

Of course, it is a heavy machine gun that has not been fired on the city wall.

This heavy machine gun that Zhu Lingsan took from the arsenal belongs to the Belgian Browning heavy machine gun series. It weighs nearly 40 kilograms and is about 1.65 meters long. The theoretical rate of fire can shoot 45 to 555 bullets per second. It can be said to be a major weapon on the battlefield.

In such a cold weapon battlefield, if there is unlimited bullet supply, only one gun may kill all the orc legions. Unfortunately, Zhu Lingsan and others do not have unlimited bullets to supply machine guns. Zhu Lingsan just brought eight boxes of machine gun bullets.

So at the beginning of the city defense battle, the heavy machine gun remained silent. Zhang Donglin held the heavy machine gun in both hands and pulled the handle on the back of the heavy machine gun. Looking at the battle around him, he felt itchy. He kicked his feet and placed the bullet boxes with heavy machine gun bullets aside.

However, he also knew that his task was very heavy, so he had to force himself to suppress his feelings of trying to fire.

Now he naturally could not see what was happening under the dense iron shields under the city wall. He only heard Zhu Lingsan shouting at him, and was stunned for a moment before pressing the shooting trigger.

So the heavy machine gun on the city wall also began to spray flames. In the battlefield where yelling like thunder, the "clang-clang-clang" sound of the heavy machine gun still attracted a lot of attention.

The shell that jumped out of the heavy machine gun was raised in the humid air, and it jumped and rolled on the ground of the city wall. Bullets as big as a thumb shot onto the shield array under the city wall, and the debris that were hit by the iron sheet and wooden boards made of iron shields flew across.
