Chapter 144: Attacking the City

Generally speaking, it is very beneficial for the defenders to defend a strong city.

When the strong city in front of us was in the hands of the Tengu clan, it held out for a long time under the strong attack of the evil god camp.

The attackers successfully captured this strong city after paying several times the price.

The commander of the evil god camp had this idea and deployed the defense in this way.

The city gates were sealed, and the spacious city walls were full of fanatical evil god believers. Giant siege crossbows were set out and aimed at the Zerg army under the city.

Siege crossbows are relatively light and effective siege weapons, but this kind of exquisite and precious siege weapon is not available in the entire alliance.

The Zerg did not find siege crossbows in the combat supplies seized in the alliance city last time. The evil god camp deployed siege crossbows here this time, which shows their attention to the Zerg.

After the elite forces of the alliance were integrated, the Zerg army officially launched an attack on the city occupied by the evil god camp!

...

Eighteen thousand Zerg Hydralisks, under the close protection of twice as many Zerg Zerglings, rushed out of the formation, rushed to their effective attack range, and launched a fierce attack on the enemies on the city wall!

Most Hydralisks used the spike attack mode, and a few Hydralisks used the splash decomposition attack mode.

A large amount of Zerg biological decomposition liquid fell from the sky, splashing on the city wall, landing on the evil god believers and various defensive equipment, sizzling!

Those soldiers with weak armor or exposed parts of the body stained with Zerg biological decomposition liquid screamed and rolled to the ground, and many soldiers disappeared directly!

Those powerful armors stained with Zerg biological decomposition liquid were also constantly melted and corrupted under the action of the decomposition liquid, losing their defensive capabilities.

Even some precious defensive weapons such as siege crossbows were destroyed in this splash decomposition attack of Zerg Hydralisks!

The Zerg Hydralisks' extremely strong armor-piercing spike attack made all the enemies exposed in the shooting range on the city wall unable to raise their heads.

"Bang...!"

"Bang...!"

The intact siege crossbows on the city wall launched a counterattack. With the dull sound of the crossbow strings, thick siege crossbow arrows shot towards the Zerg Hydralisk phalanx.

The siege crossbow arrows flew very fast. The idle Hydralisks in the phalanx sprayed spikes with all their strength to intercept, and less than half of the siege crossbow arrows were successfully shot down.

Siege crossbow arrows shot into the Zerg Hydralisk phalanx. Even if the Zerg puppies took the initiative to use their bodies to block the Hydralisks, they could not completely prevent the siege crossbow arrows from damaging the Hydralisks!

The siege crossbow arrows were extremely powerful. Many crossbow arrows could penetrate three at a time. After piercing the two Zerg puppies guarding the Hydralisks, they could also pierce the Hydralisks with strong defensive capabilities!

Some unlucky Hydralisks were hit in the vitals and disappeared like the enemies, returning to the embrace of the system.

For the first time in this world, the Zerg Hydralisks were reduced in number!

There were also many severely injured Hydralisks, who could only withdraw from the battle and rest in the rear.

Faced with the casualties of the Zerg Hydralisks, Wu Qing did not care. Whether it was the puppies or the Hydralisks, they were just Zerg fighting tools and could be sacrificed.

As long as this sacrifice could bring benefits to the Zerg, there would be no problem.

It was like an ordinary person selling a hair and earning money for a meal. There was nothing to regret or not. This was a truth.

…

These siege crossbows on the city walls were a threat. The Zerg hosts flying high in the sky found the positions of the siege crossbows on the city walls one by one. More than 300 one-star Hydralisks rushed out of the Hydralisks square formation and rushed to the appropriate attack position, continuously spraying Zerg biological decomposition liquid at the siege crossbows scattered at different positions on the city walls.

A large amount of Zerg biological decomposition liquid instantly corroded the siege crossbows on the city walls and the surrounding personnel and materials, leaving them riddled with holes!

Discovery, positioning, and attack, the Zerg's cooperation was extremely precise, and they immediately solved the weapon on the city wall that posed the greatest threat to the Zerg Hydralisks.

Hydralisks are the core arms that provide continuous long-range output for the Zerg, and their losses need to be minimized.

Without the siege crossbow, a weapon with a super long range and powerful power, on the city wall, the Zerg's Hydralisks can suppress the entire city wall with firepower.

Before the Hydralisks upgraded their splash decomposition attack, they had almost no curved shooting ability. In each battle, they either relied on favorable terrain or their own height advantage to obtain a good straight-line attack range.

Now with the attack mode of splash decomposition, even if you hide behind the city wall, the Zerg's biological decomposition liquid can drown you!

The army of the evil god camp, which is mainly composed of the bugbears, is more embarrassing in that they do not have a well-organized long-range arm with a long enough range.

Their long-range attacks are mainly based on stone throwing and spear throwing. Except for the elite archers in the hands of the long-armed ogres, the long-range attacks of other arms cannot reach the Zerg Hydralisks under the city even with the bonus of the height of the city wall.

A small number of elite long-armed ogre throwers are not very useful if taken out alone, and they are easily killed by concentrated fire.

Therefore, when seeing the range of the long-range attack of the Zerg Hydralisk, the long-range attack troops originally deployed on the city wall by the evil god camp were all withdrawn, and the soldiers left on the city wall were all to cooperate with the siege crossbows.

The evil god camp has studied the Zerg's troops and is clear about the advantages and disadvantages of the Zerg Hydralisk, the core troop. There is no problem with the location of their siege crossbows and the deployment of troops on the city wall.

But they didn't expect that the Zerg Hydralisk had an additional area-killing attack method that could be curved, and destroyed the most critical and powerful weapon of the city wall defense as soon as it came on the field.

In this situation, the evil god camp was very embarrassed. The front wall was suppressed by the Zerg Hydralisk and no one could get up. This tall and solid city wall could no longer play its due role.

"Hu...!"

"Hu...!"

Suddenly, dozens of millstone-sized boulders flew high from the city and flew randomly in the direction of the Zerg army.

The trajectory of these flying stones was very scattered and there was no pattern. Judging from the flight height and strength, the flying distance of the boulders was very far and could fall into the Zerg army.

Wu Qing knew that these ultra-long-range stone attacks were not thrown by catapults, but by a giant with a height of more than ten meters.

Wu Qing learned that there were many branches of the giants in this world, and the differences were also very large. He had seen the giants in the city through the perspective of the reconnaissance puppy. Judging from the characteristics, the giants in the city should be a kind of mountain giant.

Their tall and strong bodies are like stacks of boulders, and they can throw millstone-sized stones a long distance.

In addition to throwing stones, their size shows that they are also good at close combat.

Facing this kind of long-range attack that flies far but is not fast enough, as long as there are enough Hydralisks to intercept them, they will not fall.

Dozens of boulders exploded one by one in the air, causing no damage to the Zerg.

Two more batches of boulders were thrown in the city, and they were successfully intercepted by the Zerg Hydralisks, and the mountain giants in the city stopped.
