Lord Harland

Chapter 66 The Defense of Fort Vick II

Sophia's mobilization achieved very good results, and the tension and fear of the soldiers in the two newly formed squadrons eased a little.

At the same time, the orc brigade began to slowly approach Vickburg.

The wild boar captain, Shamok, was reckless and rude. Without any investigation, he rashly launched an attack on Vick Fort.

And in order to show his bravery, he even took the lead in charging.

Shamok let the three kobold squadrons play the vanguard, and used them as cannon fodder to consume the defenders' arrows and wood.

He brought two wild boar squadrons to the center.

The third echelon consisted of snake-bodied heavy infantry, followed by two tauren squadrons.

The werewolves are cavalry, protecting the orc flanks.

The two goatman squadrons were the weakest in combat effectiveness, and Shamoke used them as logistics transport troops.

When there is a severe food shortage, Shamok will even eat the goatmen.

Under the leadership of professional officers, the kobolds slowly approached the city wall.

Fort Vic is not particularly large and is built on the mountainside.

On both sides are cliffs tens of meters high, and behind them are hillsides.

To conquer Fort Vic, there is only one way to climb the mountain and attack.

Although the climbing path is not narrow, only two squadrons can be put into combat at one time.

Although Sophia was commanding a battle for the first time and had little experience, some of the officers under her command had experienced many wars in northern Xinjiang.

Her uncle Vito is an old military officer. Although he is only a third-tier soldier, he has experienced nine orc invasions.

War experience also surpassed that of William.

By identifying the flag, Vito immediately found the orc commander.

After the orcs lined up, Vito aimed the trebuchet at the two wild boar squadrons, preparing to attack the second echelon of the orcs.

After the kobold entered the range of the catapult, Vito did not expose the catapult, but let the archers on the castle draw their bows.

When the kobold was less than a hundred meters away from the castle, Vito passed down the military order.

"Archer, let go!"

The archers on the top of the city had already fully drawn their bows, and they let go of the strings almost at the same time after hearing the order.

Immediately, more than 200 arrows were shot down, and several kobolds were shot down on the spot.

The archers at the head of the city kept shooting arrows, and they shot five or six rounds in one minute.

The closer the kobolds are to the walls, the better the archers' hit rate.

By the time the two kobold squadrons started climbing the city wall, the casualties had already exceeded [-]%.

Without urging, the kobolds quickened their pace and climbed the city wall vigorously.

After finally climbing to the city wall, they were stabbed by spearmen from the top of the city, and fell down the city wall like a gourd, and they all died.

Several kobold officers ordered one after another.

"Raise your shield, pay attention to your feet, and defend yourself against arrows.

Concentrate on attacking one place.

Pay attention to protect the wooden ladder to prevent it from being pushed down and destroyed by humans. "

Sophia carefully observed the battlefield, and after spotting the kobold commander, she immediately launched a magic missile.

Sophia is already a magician with five rings, even if she releases a magic missile with one ring, it is enough to threaten low-level professionals.

Several magic missiles flew from the top of the city and hit the two first-order kobolds accurately.

The violent explosion engulfed a small group of kobold fighters, and in an instant, two first-order kobolds were unprepared and lost their lives on the spot.

The remaining kobold officers raised their shields one after another, hiding themselves among the ordinary kobold soldiers.

As the casualties increased, the kobolds finally couldn't bear it, and retreated under the city wall.

In the first tentative siege, the kobolds suffered [-] to [-] casualties, and the castle suffered minimal casualties. Only five or six soldiers were injured by stones.

The kobold's temptation made Shamok think he had figured out the fortifications of Fort Vick.

Soon he punished a few fleeing kobolds, and then forced the kobolds to attack the city again, but this time two quilboar squadrons were also preparing to enter the battlefield.

Shamoke also followed the two wild boar squadrons and personally led the team to attack the city.

When the two quilboar squadrons entered the range of the counterweight trebuchet, Vito immediately issued a military order.

"The No. [-] and No. [-] Catapults fired [-] catties of stone bombs with a counterweight of [-] catties.

Catapults No. [-], [-], [-], and [-] fired [-]-jin stone bombs with a counterweight of [-] jin. "

After the military order was issued, the heavy trebuchet was launched immediately, and stone bombs fell from the sky.

The landing point was almost very close, and it accurately hit the wild boar formation.

All wild boars who were hit by heavy stone bombs were instantly reduced to meatloaf.

The stone bomb hit the ground and rolled around, and the powerful kinetic energy injured more than a dozen people.

A stone bullet hit Sha Moke. Sha Moke is a fifth-level fighter and his reaction is very fast.Seeing the stone bullets falling from the sky, he jumped up with all his strength and escaped the first wave of stone bullets.

Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, another stone bomb hit him.

Two hundred catties directly killed a third-tier wild boar squadron leader, and powerful kinetic energy rolled towards Shamoke.

Sha Moke kicked hard, and his strong thick legs broke the stone bullet.

But there was severe pain in the limbs instantly, and the left leg was broken by the stone bullet at the same time.

Sha Moke jumped vigorously on one leg, and led the wild boar squadron to run wildly. He took two rounds of stone bullets before he passed this death journey.

Sha Moke endured the severe pain, and the fury in his heart reached the extreme.

Prepare to slaughter all humans after breaking the city.

Especially the beautiful human girl at the head of the city, who cut off her delicate flesh little by little, and crushed her bones.

Let her watch her body alive, being swallowed into Shamoke's stomach bit by bit.

Torturing a human noble girl makes Shamok very excited every time.

Just when Shamoke was secretly fantasizing about breaking through the human castle, a fireball landed from the top of the city, aiming at Shamoke.

Sha Mok broke his leg, and his reaction and speed were a bit slower than normal.

He was just about to dodge when the fireball fell from the sky and hit Shamoke fiercely on the chest.

The fireball exploded instantly, and the violent energy killed and injured more than a dozen wild boars.

Shamoke was located at the center of the explosion, relying on his high professional level and strong magic resistance, he managed to barely survive.

But this fireball directly hit Shamoke severely, putting his life in danger.

The wild boar has conflicts with the fox, and the magician of the fox is not willing to serve the Shamok brigade.

In the entire Sandmok brigade, only one tauren is a magician who can use healing techniques.

Fortunately, the tauren magician was relatively close to Shamoke, so he quickly used the healing spell for minor wounds, hanging Shamoke's life.

The orc brigade was severely injured, which immediately plunged the besieging orcs into chaos.

By the time the tauren deputy captain took over the command, the siege battle had already ended without a problem.
