Throne of Vientiane Civilization
Chapter 911 The Rat Tide Arrives
The sound of the horn echoed over the fortress. Before the winter officially arrived, the ratmen army that had arrived at the front line could not wait to launch the first round of offensive towards their southern fortress!
On the top of the wall, Bai Tu, who opened his eyes wide and looked at the battlefield outside, gasped on the spot.
Even if he was mentally prepared in advance, he was still completely stunned by the horrifying scene in front of him.
Until he saw this scene with his own eyes, he could not imagine that the enemy's troops could be so many that they could completely fill the entire battlefield!
Looking at the dense ratmen outside the wall, surging towards their fortress like a black tide, at this moment, Bai Tu felt a tingling scalp.
Compared with the scene in front of him, the small ratmen they had solved before were just like children playing house! They were not of the same level at all!
Bai Tu tried to adjust his emotions and subconsciously turned his head to look at Soros and others beside him.
At this moment, Soros and his men all looked calm. It was obvious that they were used to such a scene.
Their calmness made Bai Tu relax a little bit, and at the same time, he recalled what Diak had said to him before.
With the Lizardmen troops to back him up, nothing will go wrong!
Thinking of this, Bai Tu suddenly felt relieved.
At the same time, Soros's voice came over.
"Just as we discussed before, we are responsible for the wall, and you are responsible for the city gate area."
After all, they are two troops. They have never cooperated before. There is a lack of tacit understanding between them. If they are forced to get together, it is inevitable that they will drag each other down.
In this case, the best way is to divide the work!
Let the two troops each be responsible for the defense of an area, while not hindering each other, and share each other's pressure.
With this as a premise, Soros naturally took on the more stressful wall defense work.
Unlike human troops who need to use siege equipment such as ladders and siege towers, the ratmen have special claws on their hands and feet, which enables them to crawl quickly on the wall.
The best way to prevent this trick is to pour oil on the wall.
But the disadvantage of this trick is also obvious, it consumes too much oil.
And it can only work for a while. After a long time, when the lubricating effect of the oil declines, the ratmen will still crawl.
In this era, oil is not cheap, and the amount is limited. It is definitely unbearable to pour it all the time.
Therefore, when the lizardmen are in good condition, they will basically choose to let the ratmen come up and fight on the top of the wall. When the condition is bad and they need to adjust and recover, they will take the means of pouring oil to curb the offensive of the ratmen and buy time for their own rest.
"Archers, get ready!"
As the rat tide continued to advance, Bai Tu, who was standing on the wall, grasped the timing and quickly ordered!
"Shoot!!"
In an instant, a black rain of arrows swept out! Falling in the rat tide, a piece of blood was splashed!
But this was obviously not enough to curb the advance of the rat tide, but instead made the hungry rat slave soldiers quickly excited.
The rats who were shot and wounded became their food directly, and were eaten up almost in an instant!
This scene was shocking and frightening to Bai Tu, who saw such a scene for the first time.
"Shoot! Keep shooting!"
Invisibly, the psychological pressure that had accumulated made him unconsciously urge the archers below to speed up the frequency of shooting.
At the same time, the rat tide advanced frantically under the rain of arrows and soon came under the high wall.
"Ready the wooden sling!"
"Smash it for me!"
The heavy and huge wooden sling was pushed down from the top of the wall. The moment it landed, it directly burst into a piece of blood plasma, smashing a large number of rats into meat paste. This bloody scene fell into Bai Tu's eyes, and at this moment it was inexplicably relieved.
It even curbed the advance of the rat tide outside the wall for a time.
However, the rat slaves outside the wall seemed to have no idea what death was. They continued to advance while gnawing on the flesh of their people.
The suppression of the wooden beams could not continue forever.
The high frequency of throwing quickly consumed all the wooden beams on the wall.
This gave the rat slaves under the wall a chance to finally climb up the vertical wall at an astonishing speed.
It was completely different from the feeling when he got the information from Soros before. Bai Tu, who witnessed this scene with his own eyes, could not see a trace of blood on his face at this moment.
"Damn. What kind of monster is this?!"
For the defenders, the city wall is the biggest reliance, but this group of monsters that can fly over the eaves and walls makes Bai Tu, who is standing on the wall, feel insecure, and the pressure in his heart is doubled.
Recalling what Soros said to him when he analyzed the enemy and arranged tactics.
It sounds so simple, but it is really fucking deadly to do it! !
"It's almost time for you to go down. The area on the wall will soon become a battlefield."
Soros, who said this, still looked calm. After all, unlike Bai Tu, who had just arrived and was facing the ratmen for the first time, Soros had seen such a scene every year and had long been accustomed to it.
While he was talking, a ratman had already climbed up the wall.
But the next second, he was chopped off by the blue lizard sword and shield soldier guarding the wall. His body fell off the wall and became food for the rat slave soldiers under the wall.
The sudden change in the situation made Bai Tu's face uncertain, but he did not stop. He almost left the battlefield on the wall at the fastest speed and rushed to the city gate area.
At this time, the archers in the back continued to shoot arrows, shooting the rat tide outside the city with arrows, while the spearmen used the small windows arranged on the city gate to stab the spears and attack the rats outside the gate who tried to destroy their city gate.
This design is indeed very useful for the characteristics of the rat tide.
But when Soros explained the design of this part, he also specifically reminded him that he could not shrink behind the gate and defend it.
Although the group of rat slave soldiers outside were unarmed, their destructive power was extremely amazing.
As long as they were given enough time, let alone the brick and stone walls, even the iron-clad gates, they could dig through you!
The attack of the rat tide has always been continuous. Once it starts, you will not be given a chance to breathe.
In this case, if the gate is damaged, they will have no chance to repair it.
The existence of this gate is not for you to defend behind the gate at the beginning.
Instead, it is used to contain the attack of the rat tide and buy you time to recover when your condition declines and you have no strength to fight the rat tide head-on in a short period of time.
It is obviously not that time yet!
"Open the gate! Prepare to fight back!!"
Bai Tu, who shouted this sentence, did enough ideological work for himself.
He had seen the scale of the rat tide on the wall, and he knew what was waiting for him outside the gate of the fortress.
It undoubtedly took great courage to issue this order at this moment.
As soon as the gate of the fortress was opened, the scene at that moment was like a river bursting its banks, and the terrifying rat tide poured directly into the passage inside the gate! It seemed to fill up the entire passage space.
The horrifying scene made the faces of the soldiers in the passage turn pale instantly.
At the critical moment of life and death, perhaps to boost courage, some soldier suddenly shouted loudly...
"For the Emperor!"
With this shout, countless soldiers seemed to have found their backbone and started shouting wildly!
"For the Emperor!!"
"For the Emperor!!!"
