Chapter 808: City Defense Weapon

In the past, when the human race fought against the Vigorous Bull Demon Race, it was already very proud to be able to achieve one-to-one casualties.

Now, with the death of 320,000 people, the Great Bull Demon Clan paid a price of 500,000 people, but they were defeated.

However, this is just the beginning.

After defeating the 400,000 army of Li Feng and others, the Vigorous Bull Demon Clan advanced all the way to Blood River City.

Hearing the news, Lei Jiuming had a gloomy expression on his face.

Only after the war started, 320,000 people were lost, how long can the remaining 1.2 million people last.

Thinking of this, he felt extremely irritable in his heart: "Come here, go and invite Nangong Wuliang here."

Soon, Nangong Wuliang arrived.

"I've seen the commander in chief." Nangong Wuliang said while cupping his fists.

"Nangong, when will the military reinforcements arrive?" Lei Jiuming asked directly.

Nangong Wuliang thought for a while and said, "Two days later, 100,000 people will arrive, three days later, 50,000 people will arrive, five days later, 200,000 people will arrive, and finally 150,000 people should arrive Arrive in a few days!"

Hearing this, the worry on Lei Jiuming's face has not diminished in the slightest: "Nangong, you must be aware of the current situation in Blood River City. When those half a million people arrive one after another, Blood River City may be broken. Therefore, I hope you If it can be conveyed to the military aircraft battalion, it is best to mobilize another million troops within three days, so that there is hope of defending Blood River City."

Nangong Wuliang nodded: "Okay, I will convey your request to the military aircraft battalion. As for whether the military aircraft battalion will send troops, I don't know."

"Please!" Lei Jiuming thanked.

Sending Nangong Wuliang away, Lei Jiuming rubbed his head in pain. At most, there is still an hour before the army of the Bull Demons will approach the city. Although Blood River City has a high wall and thick walls, it may not be able to survive the onslaught of the Bull Demons. block.

An hour later.

Nearly two million soldiers and horses of the Great Bull Demon Clan have arrived at the Blood River City, densely packed, and the scalps of the soldiers on the city wall are numb for a while.

With a flash of his figure, Song Yan appeared on the city wall.

"attack!"

On the side of the Bull Demon Clan, the flag surged, and then nearly two million Bull Demon Clan roared and rushed towards Blood River City.

The Vigorous Ox Demons don't have many tricks to fight, almost all of them are brutal attacks.

But the Bull Demons are superior in their physical strength and strong physique. Even if they fight for three days and three nights, they will be no problem.

In comparison, the human race's physical strength and physique were inferior to the Vigorous Bull Demon Clan. Even the defenders of the city, seeing the densely packed Bull Demon Clan rushing towards the bottom of the city, the faces of the human warriors on the city wall turned pale.

"Let the arrow!"

"Shhhhhhh!"

Dense arrows fell from the sky, shooting the bull demons rushing forward to the ground, but immediately more powerful bull demons rushed in.

In addition, on land, the speed of the Bull Demon Race was very fast, and they rushed under the city wall in less than ten breaths.

As soon as they got under the city wall, those bull demons waved their huge weapons and smashed the city wall frantically, intending to smash the city wall down.

Seeing this scene, Song Yan couldn't help shaking his head secretly, this bull demon clan was useless except for being reckless.

Of course, the human race is not much better, and there is no other way except to use arrows to defend.

The siege battle lasted for more than four hours. The Vigorous Bull Demons left behind tens of thousands of corpses and retreated. Seeing the retreating Vigorous Bull Demons, the human soldiers on the city wall couldn't help cheering.

Just when Song Yan was about to leave, he found a group of bull demons shrouded in black robes suddenly appeared on the battlefield.

There are probably more than a hundred of these bull demons, and they all hold a blood-red crystal similar to the size of a skull in their hands, and they are even muttering words.

"Who are they?"

Song Yan grabbed a soldier and asked.

"do not know."

The other party shook his head blankly.

With a thought, Song Yan activated his perspective power, looked again, and found that the bull demons shrouded in black robes were using the skull crystals in their hands to absorb the souls on the battlefield.

For a moment, Song Yan couldn't help frowning, feeling something was wrong.

With a flash of his figure, Song Yan returned to his courtyard, and then started to write with a pen.

Half an hour later, he came to the Commander's Mansion with what he had written.

When seeing Lei Jiuming, Song Yan couldn't help but be surprised. The other party has the cultivation of a martial artist, but at the moment he looks haggard.

"What's the matter with you kid?" Lei Jiuming asked bluntly.

"Here are some methods of defending the city that I thought of. If you think it is suitable, try it!" Song Yan gave Lei Jiuming what he wrote in half an hour.

Lei Jiuming opened the paper, looked at it seriously, and immediately burst into applause.

In the early morning of the next day, there were thousands of simple trebuchets on the walls of Blood River City. At the same time, there were iron pots beside the trebuchets. The liquid in the pots was boiling and emitting a foul smell. The firewood was burning fiercely.

In a quarter of an hour.

The army of bull demons attacked again.

It's so dense that you can't see the end.

Two thousand meters, one thousand meters, eight hundred meters.

"The trebuchet is ready!"

With an order, the two soldiers put pieces of boulders weighing a thousand catties on the trebuchet.

"put!"

"Swoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"

A thousand big stones flew out at the same time and smashed into the army of the Bull Demon Clan.

Immediately, more than a thousand bull demons were smashed to death.

Seeing the meritorious service of the catapult, the human warriors couldn't help being very excited, and continued to load the catapult with stones.

"Play it again!"

"Whoosh whoosh!"

Another round of flying stones flew out, directly crushing more than a thousand bull demons to death.

However, after two rounds, the vanguard of the Bull Demon Clan had already attacked under the city wall, swinging their weapons and smashing the city wall.

"fall!"

Nearly a thousand large iron pots that hit the boiling foul-smelling liquid were set up by two soldiers on the city wall, and then poured the boiling liquid inside.

"Ah! Ah!"

"Roar! Roar!"

The boiling and foul-smelling liquid that fell from the sky splashed on the bodies of the Vigorous Bull Demons, scalding them and screaming, and even many of them were directly burned to death.

In an instant, nearly ten thousand strong bull demons were injured.

At the same time, the trebuchet did not stop working, and each round could take away the lives of thousands of demons, much better than bows and arrows.

Groups of peasants carrying wooden buckets appeared on the city wall, pouring the excrement in the buckets into iron pots.

Yes, the foul-smelling boiling liquid just now was boiled dung water.

Feces are the excrement of the human body. Once boiled, it will cause a large burn area if it is contaminated, and it is easy to be infected. The most important thing is that the feces contain various toxins. Once it is poured into the mouth and nose, it will inevitably be poisoned.

Half an hour later, some trebuchets started to go on strike. After all, these trebuchets were driven out, and the quality was not good. It was very good to last half an hour.

After another half an hour, most of the trebuchets were almost useless.

As a result, another weapon for defending the city began to appear - the rolling log!

In the blink of an eye, it was evening again, and because of the addition of three defensive weapons, more casualties were caused to the Vigorous Bull Demon Clan, at least twice as many as yesterday.

Hearing the news, Lei Jiuming couldn't help laughing.

And Song Yan came to the city wall again, looked at the group of black-robed bull demons collecting souls on the battlefield below, and couldn't help wondering: "Could it be that the purpose of the bull demons to promote this war is to collect souls?"
