Chapter 937 Launch
When the time came to the next day, Li Huailin returned to the barracks of the undead clan again, which is next to the Haier Gallo River. The undead clan is now camping here. Although the number of troops of the undead clan is now small, the same demon People from the other side of the clan can't get through, so don't worry about being attacked.
During this day, the news that the demon army defeated the main force of the undead tribe by relying on the strategy of water attack has spread to every corner of the mainland. This battle can be said to be a complete victory for the demons. They only lost 5,000 engineering troops, but they defeated the regular troops of the undead that were several times larger than them, and caused them to lose more than half of them. For a while, the confidence of the demons in fighting against the attacks of the two armies was also beaten back. The pessimistic demon civilians seemed to have found a life-saving straw. Coupled with the vigorous propaganda of the demon government, the demons instantly The morale of the clan increased greatly.
At the same time, the human army also responded. According to the current intelligence, the troops in the main city of the Demon Race have assembled to a scale close to 100,000, so just relying on their 60,000 troops alone is There was no way to take down the main city of the Demon Race, so Colin, the Marshal of the Fourth Legion, temporarily stopped advancing and set up camp on the spot, waiting for the order from the palace. make plans.
For a while, the wind direction of the war seemed to be tilted towards the demons. On the surface, the demons had a great chance of defending this attack, although it was because they lost a lot of cities. The loss of the demons here is also quite serious, but at least there will be no such situation as the dwarves.
At this time, the reinforcement troops of the undead race finally arrived to join the troops in front. Hearing the news from the front, Rick here also accelerated his marching speed immediately. At night, he had already joined up with the remnant troops of Sudaisi here. After resting for a night, the troops were slightly refurbished. , and then continue to make trebuchets according to Li Huailin's request, because there are a lot more people. So the progress is relatively fast, by noon. About 6 temporary trebuchets have been set up, but the soldiers are still a little confused. After all, there is no target to attack on the other side. Are they going to completely tear down the wreckage of the bridge here?
This is a good way. Because although the bridge has been blown up in the middle, there are still a lot of finished products left at both ends, so it does not need to be so troublesome to rebuild after the war is over. It is estimated that it will be completed in a few months. repaired. But if it is completely demolished, it will take a lot of effort to rebuild it. As before, it is estimated that it will take the power of the whole country to rebuild a bridge here, and the demons will suffer a lot.
But why use trebuchets to demolish bridges, why not use engineering bombs directly. Although it is a little difficult to make, it doesn't mean it can't be done. The efficiency is obviously higher than that of the trebuchet.
Although with doubts. But all the undead soldiers didn't ask much. After all, this was His Highness's order, and they were just soldiers. At most, they complained to their superiors, but they dare not ask.
In this case, Li Huailin finally came back. Just after teleporting to the station, I saw several trebuchets that had been erected and several trebuchets that were being erected. It seems that the progress is pretty good.
"Your Highness!" Ruk and Markham here also just came over to meet up, and when they saw Li Huailin appear, they immediately came over to say hello.
"Oh, here we come." Li Huailin greeted casually, then immediately put his gaze on the side of the trebuchet, and asked Matt Xiuen next to him, "Are you ready?"
"After measuring, there are at most twelve trebuchets that can be placed here.
"Here's Matthew Huenhui reported, "Six units have been built now, and the next six units are still under production as you can see. "
"Six stations." Li Huailin nodded, "Forget it, let's start working without further ado."
"Wait, Your Highness." Su Desi suddenly came over and said, "The preparations are not yet complete. The ammunition for the trebuchet is not ready yet. You can see that there is a forest next to it, and wood is very easy to get. But the large stones are a little troublesome. We found a place with a lot of stones nearby, but there is still a distance from here, so we need to make some transport vehicles to carry them back. The vehicles are still being made .”
"Ammunition?" Li Huailin was taken aback for a moment, "When did I say to make ammunition?"
"Huh?" Su Deis was slightly taken aback, "But didn't you say, Your Highness, that you want to make a trebuchet? If there is no ammunition, how does the trebuchet work?"
"..." Li Huailin was depressed for a long time, and then said directly to Su Deisi, "Come on, you come here first."
"Oh, yes, Your Highness." Although he didn't know what he was doing in the past, Su Desi followed Li Huailin.
Walking all the way forward, Li Huailin came directly to the side of the trebuchet in the first row, then pointed to the launcher of the trebuchet here, and said to Su Deisi: "Okay, you are the first, go up."
"Huh?" Su Desi was stunned for a moment, "Your Highness...this..."
"Go up." Li Huailin said again.
"..." Su Deis hesitated a little, but quickly stood on the launcher of the trebuchet. Since the trebuchet is still very large, it can basically launch stones weighing 1 ton, so Su It is relatively spacious for Daisy to stand on it.
"Your Highness... this side..." Although it's quite spacious, it doesn't feel good to stand on it. After all, it's so dangerous. When the launch lever below is pulled, Sudesi here will fly out directly.
"Stand up." After Li Huailin finished speaking, he looked at the opposite side. He didn't expect that the demon soldier who was cut into a stick by himself was still alive and strong. Although he couldn't move, the bleeding stopped and he lay on the ground. It can't move, but the name is still displayed, indicating that it still has life, and it can be used as a teleportation point.
Li Huailin pointed to a soldier next to him, and then said to him: "I will let go later, you just pull this pole."
"Huh?" Su Desi on the top was terrified. This is a launch lever, and he will fly out when he pulls it.
"Yes, Your Highness." Undoubtedly, the soldiers here obeyed the order.
"No, Your Highness, what did I say wrong here?" Su Desi said quickly. Even so, he still didn't dare to get off the launch pad.
"No, just let you experience it for the first time, and set an example for the people below." Li Huailin said, because Li Huailin was present, all the soldiers are now gathered around to see what's going on, and they are all looking at the situation here. .
"A role model? What kind of role model?" Su Desi asked here.
"You just need to stand." Li Huailin waved his hand directly, and after a teleportation, he came to the opposite side of the bridge, pulled out his own light, and then put it on the bridge and said, "Okay, let it go."
"Attention! Let it go!" The soldier who received the order immediately put his hand on the lever here, and the surrounding soldiers immediately stepped back a few steps to avoid being affected.
"Wow!" Sudesi here shouted, before he had time to react, suddenly a huge force came from under his feet, the next second Sudesi's whole body suddenly accelerated, and then flew towards the other side of the river past.
With a muffled sound of "bang", Su Desi hit the opposite bridge directly. Due to the huge force of the trebuchet, Su Desi here bounced twice on the ground like a ball, and then It slid on the ground for a few more meters before finally coming to a stop. It was already more than 20 meters away from where it landed before.
Needless to say, the onlookers here all swallowed their saliva, the fall was so hard that it hurt just to hear it, Lord Sudeis here did not know where he offended His Highness, and he was punished so cruelly. The criminal law, this is really too miserable.
But when the soldiers here were sighing, Su Desi moved a little on the ground and sat up: "It hurts... But... it doesn't seem to be so painful..."
"Huh?" All the soldiers were taken aback for a moment. They could stand up so quickly after hitting the bridge with such force. The strength of Lord Sudeis must be too strong.
"How is it?" Li Huailin also walked over at this time, and said to Su Deisi on the ground, "Is there anything wrong?"
"Uh... I don't know why it doesn't seem to be very serious." Su Desi stood up while talking, and then looked at his body up and down. He didn't feel any injury, although the one that hit the ground before It was really painful at the time, but it seemed that the pain here disappeared a lot in an instant, and now it seems to have fully recovered.
"Nonsense, the blood recovery like the halo, even if you are about to die, it will give you full recovery in 20 seconds, let alone a fall." Li Huailin said, "Okay, do you understand what to do?"
"This?" Su Desi thought for a while, and then understood, "Could it be... Your Highness wants to launch all the soldiers here?"
"Of course, otherwise why make so many trebuchets?" Li Huailin said.
"This... is this okay?" It is really unheard of to use soldiers as cannonballs to cross the river. Sure enough, only Li Huailin, who is known as the god of war, can think of it, but it sounds too much. It's wild, but after thinking about it, it might really work, after all, didn't I just come here.
"Okay, the speed starts to work." Li Huailin said.
