Chapter 49 The Observer from the Great Iron Village

When Datie Village started to make guns, the war between the two countries outside Morning Glory Town also fell into a stalemate.

At first, the temple of the Lionheart Kingdom sent a thousand awakened people to the outskirts of Morning Glory Town to fight the Tauren. They thought that the battle would end in one day, but unexpectedly, the Tauren Kingdom sent far more troops than they imagined.

A thousand Templar Lions used the lion's roar to roar across the air, causing concussion and coma effects on the tauren within 30 meters, and the total number of stuns reached more than 400 people.

After being stunned, the tauren who were not dizzy immediately poured in from behind. According to incomplete estimates, there were 5000 tauren. They crowded forward and woke up the tauren in front with their punches and kicks.

The awakened tauren has strong resistance and recovers from dizziness. Although their movement is greatly slowed down, they can still wake up the soldiers around them.

So the Tauren held a heavy shield and thousands of ordinary lion soldiers fought fiercely on the official road in the mountain forest. After a battle, the Tauren retreated back to the Moonlight Valley Fortress.

The Lionheart Kingdom had 300 injuries and 100 deaths, while the Niutou Kingdom had around [-] injuries and more than [-] deaths.

The Niutou Kingdom suffered many injuries, but not many deaths. Not afraid of the threat of the Lion Heart Kingdom, it continued to occupy Moonlight Valley, the eastern throat of the Lion Heart Kingdom, and was ready to trample on the Lion Heart Kingdom again after a rest.

After the lion soldiers rested for a few days, the kingdom's army had assembled outside Morning Glory Town, and they blew the counterattack horn against Moonlight Valley, throwing in 3000 ordinary soldiers and [-] Templar knights.

Arriving outside the Moonlight Valley, I found that the tauren army had smashed the ground, and it was difficult for the cavalry to cross the ground in front of the fortress gate. Dismounting and fighting, they were no match for the invincible tauren, and once the tauren went out to fight, they would be restrained by the lion cavalry , the two sides fell into a stalemate.

"Damn tauren, are they going to go to war!"

On the small hill outside Moonlight Valley, in the tent built on the slope, the Templar Knights of the Lion Clan slapped the big table angrily, their eyes burning.

Next to him, several Templar leaders also raised their lion beards, angry at the tauren's open war.

"The trebuchets have arrived, are you attacking the city today?"

A full-scale war is a very heavy burden for both countries. Once the war starts, the national economy will be affected. Most of the food will be shipped to the front line, and an immeasurable amount of food will be consumed every day.

"Attack! The king ordered us to fight quickly, don't give the opponent a chance to delay!"

"If you ask me, I shouldn't have transferred those 5000 people back then, otherwise I can hold on for a while longer." The former commander of Moonlight Valley was full of displeasure and sulking.

As a border fortress, once the war strikes, it is difficult to defend the city wall without enough troops.

According to the normal rhythm of war, attacking a city requires about ten times the troops. The Lionheart Kingdom has brought [-] troops, which has not yet reached the threshold of ten times the troops, but it has reached the scale of a full-scale war.

The Lionheart Kingdom has a total of [-] active troops. In the future, it will look at the situation of the siege before considering whether to add more troops.

After all, there are neighboring countries on the left and north of the Lionheart Kingdom, and there may be a beast tide in the south, so we need to be careful, and we can't withdraw all our troops to fight against the Bull Head Kingdom.

After a while, the giant trebuchet was transported to the outside of Moonlight Valley, and it could throw 260 kilograms of stones as far as [-] meters.

This is only the theoretical best range. A group of lion soldiers moved out the trebuchet components and slowly assembled the trebuchet.

Moonlight Valley is an important military area. The border wall facing the Tauren Kingdom is as thick as 20 meters, and the wall facing the Lionheart Kingdom is only [-] meters thick, and its height is not as high as the outer city wall. Catapults need to hit many rounds to smash down the city wall.

During the construction of the trebuchet, someone saw a huge black shadow rising from the Moonlight Valley Fortress.

The circular black shadow draws a beautiful arc in the sky, rising higher and higher, rising to the top of the arc and then descending, heading towards their catapult.

Staring at the boulder, the lion soldiers couldn't help but turn pale in shock. They covered half of their mouths and shouted: "They also use trebuchets!"

Catapults are widely used in the cold weapon era of the orcs. They are siege weapons and are most suitable for siege.

"When I retreated, I ordered people to destroy the catapults. Those catapults were brought by the tauren."

The temple leader's face was gloomy. He hacked up all the trebuchets, and none of them were usable, so the other party also brought trebuchets.

Of course, the accuracy of the catapult needs to be considered. A [-]-kilogram stone fell to the ground and created a large pit. The dust splashed and hit a few lion soldiers who were fleeing in a hurry, but the catapult missed.

Boom boom boom, the Moonlight Valley Fortress threw stones one after another.

Seeing that some stones were about to hit the trebuchet, the lion soldiers guarding the assembly team jumped up, and the white golden lion cloak fluttered in the wind, revealing the gleaming silver plate armor inside.

"It's a Templar!"

The orc who assembled the catapult stared wide-eyed as he watched a Templar knight bounce on the spot, jump onto the lever of the catapult, press down heavily and jump up, holding the huge shield in his hand and hitting the stone head-on. piece.

With a bang, the stone changed its parabola due to the impact of the giant shield, and fell next to the trebuchet.

And the templar knight who jumped up into the air and fell from the sky, and a group of plate armor knights wearing white-faced golden lion cloaks quickly picked up the man, and found that the other party's breastplate was completely cracked, his hands were full of blood, and he was dead. In a coma, this life is crippled.

These are the Templars of the Lionheart Kingdom. After awakening the divine talent, their bodies grow stronger all the time, and they don't stop growing until middle age. At their peak, the Templars can leap five or six meters high. It can lift a weight of 250 kilograms with one hand, which is called infinite strength.

Because of the strong jumping power of the Templars, the border walls of this world were built very high, often more than ten meters or 20 meters.

As for the higher wall, the orc artisans with backward technology said that the wall was too high, and the city wall needed to bear too much weight, so they could not solve this problem.

Moreover, they did not invent advanced lifting equipment. If they bite the bullet and lay bricks, the cost will be astonishing.

With a whoosh, another Templar knight who was in his peak period leaped high, with a loud bang, the fluttering white-faced golden lion cloak was stained with blood, and fell to the ground.

And with him fell a great stone from the enemy's kingdom.

After a while, the trebuchet was completely completed, and more than [-] Templars died on the side of the Lionheart Kingdom. The Templar delegation was furious and ordered to smash Moonlight Valley.

A siege battle began.

In the dense forest far away from the Moonlight Valley, a figure disappeared in a flash. No lion soldier noticed his figure, let alone knew that the man's tail was a cat's tail.

In the woods, the sun was slanting to the west, and the cat clan orcs were wearing simple leaf camouflage clothes, hiding in the shade of the tree canopy, and wrote a string of words composed of special passwords on a piece of paper with leaf juice:
"There are about 3 lion soldiers, and the tauren guard the city. The weapons are mainly swords and guns. There is a battle of stone throwing on both sides. The range of the trebuchet is more than 200 steps..."
