Chapter 539 Goliath Siege

January 27, 5 years.

The lords who had prepared the eastern defense line passed through the very short buffer zone in the center of the defense line and launched an offensive against the Goliath Knights.

The assault force led by three hundred well-dressed lords arrived at the main city of the Goliath Knights under the cover of night. These people never dreamed that the first wave of attacks they encountered would come from the east.

The first wave of expeditionary troops on the eastern defense line were directly thrown into the battlefield after completing their own training and reorganization. They received support from 'forces' from the air.

Explosives and light infantry weapons support from Standard Mining.

There is also the ‘form accelerator’ provided by the Round Island Alliance.

The conditions offered by these two cloud forces to the ground lords are very simple. They have resources... and the right to develop resources.

In exchange, they would support the land lords in winning the war.

The Round Island Alliance thought a lot about which side to bet on, and finally made the final decision when they saw the staff of Standard Mining in the conference room. They decided to bet on the eastern defense line with Ji Lin.

The argument is over, they believe in the eyes of their enemies.

Ji Lin doesn't care about this, he won't change his bet because of this.

One code equals one code.

It's just that the support fleet will stagger the order of its support to avoid everyone being embarrassed together.

This has nothing to do with people on earth, and it doesn’t have anything to do with it now.

"Let me tell you the bad news first. We are divided into the trapped camp."

Gao Yu sighed and raised the attack plan he had just received towards the two fellow villagers he met on the road.

Humans, undead, elves.

Three unrelated forces formed a simple fighting group. Most of the lords formed fighting groups of three people in this way.

꾮provides cover, 꾮supports each other, and 뀪makes up for the shortcomings of their troops and troops.

A month's recovery period is too short.

"What is trapped in the camp?" Undead Lord Hui Xia raised his hand.

"It means we rush forward to die in the first round." Elf Lord Li Xiangyan replied concisely.

Gao Yu glanced at Li Xiang and agreed with his explanation.

Those who fall into the camp are those who rush forward to die in the first round.

"The heavy artillery bombardment did not go very smoothly. The bastion built by these European turtles was too hard. We had to rush up and break the wall. Before these European barbarians could react, the entire city wall was blown open."

Gao Yu pointed to the bunker in the distance. The expeditionary force's large-diameter mortar bombarded a corner of the bastion where the Goliath Knights were located, but it did not completely destroy the firepower fulcrum on the wall.

This is very troublesome. If the opponent recovers and controls the city wall, he can effectively curb the expeditionary force's offensive.

"Can't the beast troops help us clear the way? I remember that there are Chimera and Rotten Leviathan in the army." Hui Xia raised his hand again.

"Good question. The beasts are the personal property of the lords in the rear. They can't put these things into the battlefield before we take out the heavy artillery on the city wall." Gao Yu said: "After the bad news, let's have some good news."

The cavalry following him stopped and unloaded a large number of long wooden boxes to the ground.

"Fixed-loading rifles and a few boxes of 10-gram explosives. Send them out. We have half an hour to prepare for the attack."

Hui Xia and Li Xiang's eyes widened.

The only advantage of being trapped in the camp is that you can get pretty good weapons, such as this single-shot rifle with fixed ammunition.

For a single-shot rifle that does not require a complex mechanical structure, the most valuable part is the rifled barrel.

A factory under Ji Lin can produce a thousand pieces a month, and can easily produce 30,000 pieces a month.

After the air tightness of the rubber is improved, it has good accuracy at medium and long distances.

Gao Yu took out a shiny single-shot rifle, held it in his hand, and blew a whistle.

This thing is much better than any rune sword.

"Hui Xia, let your undead cavalry be loaded with explosives and rely on you to break the wall. Li Xiang, have your eagle cavalry be ready and help us suppress the enemies on the wall at low altitude."

My heavy cavalry is responsible for helping you attract attention and undertake the task of attacking and breaking through.

All three lords have mobile cavalry.

There are not many, a total of 400 mixed cavalry, the most important of which is Hui Xia's Death Horror heavy cavalry, fifty heavy cavalry... This kind of skeletal cavalry that is not afraid of death ignores most of the projectiles. Can release a halo of desolation to penetrate the enemy formation.

"Oh, by the way, Hui Xia, can the fire in your undead body be used to light explosive packets?" Gao Yu asked.

"Yes, I will find a way." Hui Xia nodded and replied.

The undead cavalry has an advantage that no other cavalry has. It can be micro-controlled by the lord. When it is full of explosives, it can be controlled by the lord to blast specific targets at any time.

The cavalry carried explosive packs to attack the city wall, opening a gap for the follow-up troops.

Inside the Goliath Knights.

The officer wearing a dark blue and black military uniform roared loudly, causing the new lords who had just been recruited in the camp to take action: "The sons of bitches are attacking at night, this is our base, give them some color!" "

While he was swearing, he kept moving his hand with the other hand.

"It's not armor, you don't have armor! If you know how to use a flintlock, go to the left to get a musket. If you don't know how to use a flintlock, go to the right to get a standard rune crossbow. If you don't know how to do it, just go to the front and get your own weapon. I'll hold on!"

They really didn't expect to be attacked from the east, but they didn't intend to just raise their hands and surrender.

John took the rune crossbow and twelve matching crossbow arrows from the quartermaster.

The standard crossbow arrows produced by the Goliath Knights were much better than the weapons John made himself. John was somewhat satisfied with his decision to join the Goliath Knights.

This was his first time to participate in a large-scale battle, and he was excited.

"Beat those Qi people!"

He shouted, leading to a chorus of boos, and even the blood of others boiled.

John imagined that the siege and defense battle was to lead his own troops to pour arrows on the wall.

"Good, very spirited! Now pick up your weapons and go to the southeast wall immediately. The defense battle is a good time for you to perform! Push them up and push them out!"

The officer laughed and scolded.

This excitement lasted until John saw the southeast wall pointed by the officer. The entire wall collapsed into dust in the explosion.

He realized that something was wrong.

He saw the heavy cavalry with pale flames rushing into the team that was still preparing after the wall was broken along the collapsed city wall.

The undead cavalry holding heavy guns made hoarse screams, and the rotten wasteland spread out around them, and the skin of the ordinary soldiers who could not avoid them began to fester.

"It's the undead heavy cavalry! Form a formation! Form a formation!"

A blond and blue-eyed lord commanded his troops to gather together and use the gun formation to stop the charge of the undead cavalry.

The best way to resist the heavy cavalry is to form a formation.

Group?

The suddenly blooming flames rose with a sound that was enough to tear the eardrums, and the instantaneous explosion shock wave swept the army of the Goliath Knights stationed in an arc with the broken gun tips like a pear blossom rain.

No one thought that these undead heavy cavalry were still hanging explosive packs.

"Great, 100 kg of explosive packs clear the way! Damn it! This is a battlefield!"

The heavy cavalrymen wearing black armor followed the undead heavy cavalry into the inner side of the wall. Gao Yu, carrying a rifle and holding a long spear, laughed loudly.

"Qi...Qi people?"

John shouted, raising the well-strung rune crossbow in his hand and aiming at the heavy cavalry rushing into the formation.

"I've said it many times, I'm not a Qi person, European barbarian... Go back to your hometown."

The big man cursed, raised his knife and cut John in half.
