Volume 12 [Creation! The Death of the Terminator!] Chapter 52 Seven Inches
The sky continued to be gloomy and black, as if the billowing black clouds were pressing down on the ground. The pale black clouds and mist were rolling, and even the Holy White Tower at the highest point of Minas Tirith was swallowed into the clouds and mist. He stretched out his hand. There was drizzle everywhere, and even if you stayed in the tent and warmed yourself by the fire, the dryness on the front made the moisture on your back more vivid, with a lingering stickiness.
Since the shocking reversal of the war situation on the entire Paliano Plain, Sauron has not been depressed by the 200,000 dead orc army, as well as the believers and war elephants in the south, because he has also seen the great results of the battle, and for him In other words, even if the battle fails now, if the royal bloodline of Isildur's line can be cut off, the battle will be worthwhile!
He knew very clearly that being able to forcefully reach a stalemate in the previous crisis situation was already a very difficult victory.
So the excited Sauron poured more divine power here. This damp weather was like genital warts to sex life, seriously damaging the bowstrings of the long-range weapons guarding Minas Tirith, and For the Umba pirates who were to be the main combat force, they would feel uncomfortable if they were not exposed to the humid water vapor.
At this time, two days had passed since the battle, and both sides were stubbornly stalemate, seemingly waiting for their own reinforcements. On Sauron's side, Saruman's elite orc army has been setting off for two days. It is led by Faerun, an archer who is more powerful than Ruiz.
After hearing the bad news about Aragorn, the elf king Eldron agreed to his daughter's request and acquiesced to the princess Alvin to lead a small group of his tribe to rush to avenge his fiancé. There is no doubt that if these elves If you enter Minas Tirith and participate in the battle to defend the city, the difficulty of defending the city will increase tenfold. After all, the arrival of Faerun, a marksman, will definitely not cover up the fact that the orcs are not good at long-range attacks.
At this time, the leaders of the dark side also gathered in front of the 3D structure diagram of Minas Tirith at this time. Under the illumination of the satellite, the situation here was clearly visible. The Human Alliance directly gave up the second, third, and fourth first city wall, and then defend the fifth city wall.
Because the length of the fifth city wall is only about half of the first city wall, and when the attacker launches a large-scale attack, he must follow an S-shaped path like the Ruopanshan Highway. Therefore, there is already sufficient space for early warning, and shorter city walls can greatly make up for the shortage of manpower.
After the defenders made such an arrangement, Sheyan and the others also felt extremely overwhelmed. Did the reputation of the most dangerous city in the continent of Minas Tirith come to nothing? With the opponent retreating like this, if they wanted to attack the city on a large scale, they would probably have to walk five or six kilometers just from the foot of the first city wall to the gate of the fifth city wall.
To be more specific, the road is in the shape of a "bow". Enter through the gate on the left side of the first city wall, then walk forward fifty meters to the bottom of the second city wall, and walk along the right side. Go up two or three kilometers and then you will reach the rightmost gate of the second city wall. After entering, you have to repeat the above procedures to reach the bottom of the third city wall, then walk a long way to the left to reach the rightmost gate. There are three city gates... and in the process of walking, you have to withstand the opponent's projectiles all the time. An ordinary army would have been shot to pieces while marching.
"According to the latest data we have, the opponent's Jazz also spared no expense in exchange for a group of manpower. The defensive force has reached about 3,000 people." Jax, the leader of the Blu-ray team, said with a gloomy expression.
"In fact, those damn pirates are completely useless. We are very passive when attacking the city. The opponent can use the city wall to inflict astonishing damage to us."
"We are not here to listen to your depressing words." Bai Xiwen said disapprovingly. After making a deal with Sheyan and the others, Bai Xiwen, who holds the Sword of the King, can be said to have exponentially more say in the team. With this weapon, he successfully won over more than 70% of the team. The elites are ready to show their talents in the future world of Lord of the Rings.
For Bai Xiwen, his way of looking at the problem is from the enemy's side - even if the reinforcements from the elves come, the reinforcements of several hundred people are just a small fight! Does the other side dare to come out to fight?
Before being surrounded by tens of thousands of troops, Sheyan and the others guarded the Dark Hall brazenly and killed Aragorn to make a comeback. Now this group of people almost all have legendary equipment, especially the MT. I am afraid that among their contractors in this period, it is The first strong man to possess a shield of legendary quality! With this group of people guarding the Dark Source Hall, it is almost impossible to fall. Since our own side is already in an invincible position, we should worry about the other party.
"Actually, the reason for the current situation is that our plan at that time was actually not well thought out." Under Fang Senyan's instructions, Liao Shi said seriously:
"The flooded area and time were at least one-third less than our previous estimate. The biggest reason for this is that we forgot one thing and did not flood the river below Minas Tirith. The big hole created by the earthquake was predicted.”
The earthquake below Minas Tirith is a classic work created by the Contractor Think Tank of the Human Alliance. It cleverly destroyed more than 80% of the siege equipment of the siege team in one fell swoop, and it was still under the city of Minas Tirith. It left a terrifying scar on the earth.
When Fang Senyan and the others burst the embankment to fill the river, this scar on the earth swallowed up at least one-fifth of the river water, which directly caused the degree of mud and the amount of flood water to decrease to varying degrees.
"If there hadn't been that big pit, the defenders at this time should not have exceeded two thousand people." Jiao Shi concluded. "But the question we have to face now is, should we continue to seek stability and wait for reinforcements to arrive, or should we try to attack and end the war before those damn elves arrive?"
"If the elves come, we will be even more passive." Jax pointed out the hidden danger very simply: "The elves can launch a fatal strike from five hundred meters away, and the darkness will become their ally. They can take advantage of Constant harassment and sneak attacks at night, and their high perception in the dark make it difficult for them to ambush, and our troops will be slowly exhausted by their cannibalizing guerrilla warfare. "
Bai Xiwen smiled proudly:
"Although the elves are powerful, these sissies in the woods have a fatal weakness. This weakness should be in Master Zi and I. I believe that as soon as they arrive, they will be unable to bear it and come to fight us. Because the leader That woman of theirs, oh, she must be a widower and she must be determined to die. All she needs is this Anduril and Evening Star necklace to appear in front of Alvin's eyes. How could she be able to bear it and not rush over?"
It can be said that Jax's statement has its own truth, and Bai Xiwen's judgment of intention was not wrong. At this time, Sheyan closed his eyes and thought carefully for a while and said:
"Have you ever considered calling for reinforcements?"
Besieging a city for reinforcements is a very common tactic, but although it is common, it is still often used. The reason is that it is completely similar to a conspiracy plan. The reinforcements have to be rescued and have to come. So the attackers who are waiting for work have no choice in this regard. He already has a huge advantage by nature.
Bai Xiwen muttered:
"It's not that the method of siege and reinforcement is bad, but the people in Minas Tirith must have very close communication with the elves now, unless the people in Minas Tirith encounter a danger that really cannot be broken. The situation will then escalate, which may cause the elves to be in chaos and rush all night to get into trouble. But..."
Bai Xiwen was trying to save face for Sheyan, but the hidden meaning behind it was not stated directly, but there was no doubt that the people in Minas Tirith felt the strong oppression, which was imminent.
Fang Senyan already said:
"Before that, we have to do two things. The first thing is to deal with the damn city wall of Minas Tirith! Our people have to rush to the fifth city wall. If we advance according to normal rules, then I had to endure the rain of arrows and walk for several kilometers.”
Having said this, Sheyan sneered:
"Then we won't take the route that the enemy wants us to take! In fact, the straight-line distance from the gate of the first city wall to the fifth gate is only about three hundred meters, and according to field surveys, it is only about three hundred meters. Only the first city wall in Stirith is extremely strong, but the quality of the rest of the city walls is a bit poor, not to mention that the regent of Gondor for hundreds of years seems not to have paid attention to it. "
Jax said with some scorn:
"No matter how poor the quality is, it is still a city wall. In this era without firearms, do we have to rely on pirates to dig it out?"
Fang Sheyan said calmly:
"So, our team has made the decision to make an investment."
After Sheyan said his words, as if to add footnotes to his words, a shrill roar suddenly came from outside. The sound was obviously sharp and penetrating. It was very unique. When heard, it sounded like an elephant. A shrill scream!
Immediately afterwards, the earth shook slightly, and abnormal ripples appeared in the cups held in everyone's hands...
The iconic creature from the Hadlin people in the south, the most terrifying siege weapon to date, makes its debut again!
After some discussion, Sheyan and the others actually exchanged for this terrifying weapon! Mammoth giant war elephant! You know, the contribution points and Sauron badge required to redeem this thing are almost close to the value of the legendary equipment, and this thing is still one-time, there is no way to take it back!
But it must be said that this move has already hit the Human Alliance's seven inches! With this war weapon that is more than ten meters high, the advantage of the city wall is just in vain. (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!)
