Chapter 461: The First Attack

The most severe order Howard issued to the NJ City defenders is not allowed to leave the protection area of ​​the city wall. No matter how the enemy provokes or how the enemy moves, everyone sticks to their own position and completes their tasks.

Therefore, no matter how the orcs clamored, the multi-grand defenders who left the city to defend would never take a step.

Only the crossbows occasionally shot an arrow on the city wall, or after a roar, a shell crossed the moat lava river and the defenders outside the city, and landed on the open space between the two armies.

The crossbow gunner and gunner perform pre-fighting calibration according to convention. Crossbow arrows and artillery shells are different from magic, and these parabolic weapons are easily affected by some objective conditions, causing the aiming point and landing point to deviate. Live-fire shooting must be carried out before the war, and then according to the landing point being affected by the wind direction and environmental elements, it is possible to provide a reference angle for other artillery positions.

The catapult cart on the back of the city wall also had huge rocks thrown out one after another, and the observers in the air recorded the landing point of each huge rock.

The abyss devils of the Hell clan took multiple races of flying troops and flew along the city walls. Some hero units rushed out from time to time to show off their flying skills.

The orc who has a bad temper and advocates attacking can no longer hold back when he sees the defenders not leaving the city wall.

Amid Bemon's roar, the orcs' soldiers pressed forward.

Then, he temporarily stopped at the limit of the range of the war equipment in the city. The shells and boulders fired by the military academy had no potential energy when they rolled here. The Bemons kicked these annoying things away with contempt.

The Cyclops walked forward, and a group of first-level orc troops, big-eared monsters, opened the transport truck that transported the stones, and the irregularly shaped stones rolled down.

Of course, the orcs were reluctant to spend resources to transport thrown stones from the stone wilderness to the Cyclops. These stones were all stones they pulled out from the orcs' city warehouses in the main world, and some were stone bricks that were removed from the city walls.

The shapes of these stones are very irregular and the weight is not uniform. If thrown out like this, the flight trajectory will not be easy to grasp. It will neither hit the target nor allow the stone to roll up after it lands to cause secondary damage.

Therefore, these stones need to be trimmed and polished.

The big-eared monsters took out chisels and hammers around the pile of stones, knocked and beat the stones, knocking off the edges and corners on the stones to make them round and spherical.

The stone balls were rolled to the feet of the Cyclops.

The Cyclops carried the stone ball and advanced again. They wanted to take the defenders standing outside the city into their range, and then use intensive attacks to smash a road leading to the NJ City wall for the subsequent army's attack.

At this time, above the gate of NJ City, Howard ordered the war equipment on the city defense to start an attack.

Two abyss devil heroes who were responsible for delivering orders took off from the city gate tower. They shouted orders of attack on the green flags and flew at high speed along the battlement line of the city wall, left and right.

As the devil of the abyss flew past, thick smoke rose, and amid a string of roars, the black projectiles shot towards the enemy in the distance.

The crossbows fired short spears, and rows of catapults threw the boulders into the sky.

The NJ City defenders opened fire first, and war equipment poured shells, short spears and stone balls into the orc army's sudden line of troops through various launch methods.

The orc army was blinded by the sudden attack of the defenders. After the ball-shaped solid artillery shell rebounded on the ground, it rushed into the orc army formation in a low manner; the huge rocks rolled and crushed them all the way; the short spear could penetrate the bodies of several orcs.

Even Bemon couldn't hold on for long in such an attack, let alone the cyclops who were being taken care of, and fell down a row in an instant.

Let out a whine of unwillingness.

Aren't we outside the range of enemy long-range weapons? How did they hit us...

The tall body brings strong power to the Cyclops and makes them more likely to be hit by long-range weapons. As the only long-range soldier that can siege the city, Cyclops are the most preferred targets for the defender.

In order to attack these cyclops as soon as possible, Howard designed a trap.

Ranged war equipment has a longer attack distance than ordinary magic and long-range troops, and this attack distance is affected by many factors and is not a fixed value.

The shooting of the NJ City defenders' war equipment deliberately narrowed a little bit under Howard's order, allowing the orc army to make a wrong judgment on the attack range of the defenders' war equipment.

Therefore, when the Orcs were moving forward and stopped and thought they were still outside the farthest attack range of the defenders' long-range war equipment, the orcs on their vanguard had already entered the range of the NJ City defenders.

Those cyclops who were preparing for stone casting were closer.

The error in judgment caused the orc army to suffer a head-on blow when it was not ready, and the Cyclops, which were not protected on the front line, suffered heavy losses. Without a large-scale long-range suppression force, rashly attacking a city with strict internal and external defenses would be a futile death. The orcs' target was Shangjiang City, and they could not lose too much force in NJ City. Therefore, after the attack was frustrated, the orc army immediately retreated and retreated to the farthest distance of the defenders' war equipment.

The orc attack was knocked back before it even started.

NJ City stopped attacking, the battlefield returned to quiet, and then the whole city burst into cheers. They had never thought they could repel the attack of a high-level plane army. Although there were even more cruel battles waiting for them, this battle allowed the defenders to see... the high-level plane is not invincible.

The defenders were as powerful as rainbows.

The attacking orcs did not have a morale influence due to the defeat of an attack. There were constant civil wars in the wilderness, and orc warriors had experienced any battle under any circumstances. For warlike orcs, death is not terrible, and powerful enemies are not terrible. The bloodier the battlefield, the more they can stimulate their potential combat effectiveness.

The retreating orc army reorganized a new attack, and the reserved one-eyed soldiers moved from the back to the front, and reorganized into a long-range suppression team. The shamans and Bemons stood together. This attack they would help the Cyclops create physical and magic defense lines.

After the senior shaman realized that NJ City was not a soft persimmon, he began to jump to the master to perform divination.

The orc army adjusted the position of the military formation based on the results of the divination, as well as the main attack direction after the war began.

After seeing that the orc army was preparing for a second attack for too long, Howard said to Daliang beside him: "I guess the orcs are using divination techniques to interfere with the battle. Those are high-level shamans who master master masters divination techniques. I wonder if the prophet you invited can fight against the enemy in divination techniques.

We cannot rely too much on mysterious techniques, these are just auxiliary.
