Although the Alliance did not know the intentions of Sauron's side for a while, what was the use of using precious trebuchets to fill the soil during such a critical period of time - so what if they filled up the muddy area? The city wall was not broken, and the mainland's first
Is the reputation of a fortified city in vain? Are they trying to fill the first wall with the corpses of orcs?
However, the Alliance also knows very clearly that every second passing by is like gold. It is absolutely impossible for the contractors of Sauron on the opposite side to do things in vain, so they are still sniping desperately.
The giant catapults below - although these catapults only aimed to hit the front area of the city wall, they had already retreated from Minas Tirith.
The catapults on the city wall were outside the bombardment range.
But at this time, the Jazz ordered to sniper the operator of the giant catapult. Although the Orcs were rough and thick, if they couldn't drop one shot in seconds, they would send two snipers together. If two people couldn't drop them in seconds, four would be on them.
One hit will kill.
This kind of attack undoubtedly made Sauron's contractors bleed in their hearts. However, what can they do after they are shot? They can only spend a lot of contribution points and grit their teeth. Finally, on the eve of sunset, Mi
The muddy ground outside the city of Stirith was covered with a thick layer of sand and gravel from the Anduin River.
Immediately afterwards, a large number of orc slaves rushed forward, each carrying a plank on his head, and using the boulders thrown outside the city as cover, they used planks to pave a road to the gate of Minas Tirith!!
!
As a fortified city on the mainland, Minas Tirith's gates are certainly extraordinary and are divided into three levels:
The first layer is made of the body of Grondos, the oak demon wood that is as famous as Treebeard, and is immune to any fire attacks!
The second layer is made of adamantine mixed with lead, and almost all long-range attacks will be absorbed in this layer.
The third layer is made of thirteen-year-old hazelnut boards mixed with mithril threads. Legend has it that the thirteenth-year-old hazelnut tree can make the most powerful wands, plus mithril threads that are highly sensitive to magic.
, the four major magics of "renewal", "self-healing", "deflection field" and "advanced sliding" can be permanently fixed on it.
Therefore, it is actually a big mistake for the enemy to attack the city gate, because in terms of protective power, the city gate even far exceeds the city wall of Minas Tirith.
If a hundred huge boulders hit a place on the city wall of Minas Tirith, then it is likely that the city wall cannot withstand such an impact. However, if these one hundred boulders hit the city gate, everyone will be affected.
But they can pat their chests and say that they will be safe and sound.
Therefore, the city wall of Minas Tirith is known as the "Unbreakable Wall". From the perspective of the defenders, if the enemy focuses on attacking the city gate, the defensive force can be concentrated on one point to provide relief to the enemies below the city.
More powerful direct damage!
But there are exceptions to everything. There is no invincible city in this world. But after a moment, the orc defenders outside the city let out a deafening howl. The sound even reached the sky.
, covering up all the noise.
They were shouting a word at the same time, and the voice was pious and believing, as if they were humble believers shouting for the omnipotent god!!!!
Ge, Long, De…….
Grond…….
Grond!!!
When the army of Mordor, led by the Witch-King of Angmar, the leader of the Ringwraiths, was sweeping across the Middle-earth continent, the biggest enemy they faced was the terrifying gate defense of the kingdom's capital.
For this reason, under the personal intervention of Sauron, a huge and astonishing city-breaking hammer was built using black iron mixed with fine gold. Its length is as high as a century-old sacred tree. Shake.
The blacksmiths of Mordor have worked hard for at least one hundred and seventy years to forge this terrifying weapon. Its tip is shaped into the shape of a roaring wolf's head. It is ferocious, dark, and ferocious. The gaps between the teeth of the wolf's head are always on fire. The terrifying flames come from the high temperature of the lava from the doomsday volcano.
Sauron personally engraved dark secret patterns on it, permanently instilling the four powerful destructive spells of "catastrophe", "breaking barrier", "area force field deflection" and "wave of exhaustion". In order to commemorate the ancient Hell Hammer, they named this city-breaking hammer Grond. Four unicorn monsters slowly crawled out from the mire in the south, dragging it, surrounded by many orcs, from the mountains. The Gaogang troll elite is responsible for the use of the entire device.
At this moment of dusk, when darkness was approaching but had not yet arrived, Grond's city hammer was crushing heavily on the fertile land of Paliano Plains, and appeared in front of everyone as the King of Destruction dominating the world. .
The length of this giant hammer is even more than forty meters, and the height will never be less than ten meters. On the dark and green torso, there is a light like water shining on the mountain. At least thousands of strong orcs surround it. The one dragging it along was the dark unicorn, breathing heavily and letting out an angry and low roar.
A total of seventeen names are engraved on the torso of Grond's city ram. These seventeen names, without exception, are all the last kings of the royal capital who were smashed by Grond's city ram. When darkness approaches, the ghosts of the imprisoned kings will appear around these names, wailing miserably. And their pain and fear will add huge power to Grond's battering ram!
Obviously, the time and opportunity of the attacking party were also chosen quite well. Relying on the advancement speed of Grond's city ram, when they entered the catapult range on the city wall of Minas Tirith, the sky was just right. Darkness. Darkness has a great impact on defenders who are good at using long-range weapons anyway.
The orc arsonists relied on the cover of darkness to arrive on the battlefield first. Wherever they went, fire and smoke filled the air, causing the defenders' shooting to be even more disrupted by the darkness and smoke. , and the flickering light will reduce the attack accuracy of all enemies by at least 10. For the defenders of Minas Tirith who rely entirely on long-range attacks to output damage, this is already a very significant weakening. .
At this time, from the main formation of Sauron's Legion, the nine Nazgul Knights once again took off on the terrifying Snake-necked Bat Dragon. Both the Nazgul Knights and the Snake-necked Bat Dragon are extremely perverted dark creatures. Since they are Dark creatures will naturally not be affected by darkness!
However, the giant eagle that can restrain them during the day cannot maintain its superb combat level at night!
Because vision relies on visual cells on the retina, and the visual systems of humans and birds are different. Humans have two types of visual cells, cones and rods. There are three types of cones in humans,
Red, green, blue. The main function of cone cells is to sense strong light and color. In other words, they have vision and color perception during the day.
The rod cells mainly sense weak light, that is, they have light perception in the dark. However, most birds only have four kinds of cone cells and no rod cells, so they cannot see things at night. Obviously, the giant eagle is neither a human nor a human.
It has no blood relationship with bats and owls, so this is an inherent flaw in biological species, just like humans are born unable to breathe underwater like fish.
It can be seen at this point that it is definitely not unreasonable for the Blu-ray team to be selected by Space to lead this battle.
There is a great relationship between the status and strength of the contractor. Because Liao Shi and Aziz have shown extremely strong strength, their status has also increased, and it is very convenient to inquire about anything.
Fang Senyan learned from the reef that the Blu-ray team had specially formed a staff group, and today's offensive was instigated by them. It was known as a four-way attack. As you can see in front of him, the appearance of Grond's battering ram was from one line.
The strength of the Nazgul remains unchanged at night, but the strength of the giant eagles from the Misty Mountains plummets, so they can also be used as the main force of the attack.
"Then the third line of attack...?" Sheyan pondered: "That should be what I deduced!"
At this time, the excited shouts of the strong orcs suddenly came from the distance. It turned out that it was not just the alliance that had powerful mages. Zeus was in the limelight at this time. His specialty was gravity control. This guy joined the opponent.
After Grond entered the siege ram team, he directly reduced the gravity near the extremely heavy siege ram to the lightest level!
As we all know, the defenders will definitely try their best to interfere with the gathering when the battering ram is close to the city wall. However, after reaching the bottom of the city wall, the attack will not be so strong due to the shooting angle, so entering from the battering ram
The journey from the enemy's firing range to the city's bottom can be said to be the most brutal road to death. The longer the delay, the more people will die.
At this time, Zeus suddenly halved the gravity in the area near Grond's siege hammer. So it not only doubled the movement speed of this giant gun? More importantly, it also caused various ogres, soldiers, etc. nearby.
Becoming as light as a swallow, you can dodge better!
While most of Minas Tirith's attention was focused on the advancement of Grond's siege ram, there seemed to be something huge squirming in the darkness. It wasn't until it calmed down that it
Little bits of flames lit up.
That was a brazier for igniting petroleum bombs! And there were countless orcs busy nearby.
Beside the brazier, twenty-five giant trebuchets appeared indistinctly!!
