Chapter 597 Fire Attack!Fire attack!
More than 4000 Dunlanders were driven by the orcs to attack.

Chang Wei knew that the orcs had weapons to attack the city, so he would not let them get close to the city.

That is to say, time is limited, coupled with the shortage of materials, otherwise Chang Wei will let the strong beasts know what it means to defend the city that never falls.

Now, all they could do was shoot arrows when the Dunlanders approached, and then pour kerosene and light the siege ladder when it was set up on the wall.

Destroying the opponent's siege equipment is the way to go.

After all, siege warfare in this world is still at a very primitive stage, and the orc army cannot carry large siege equipment. Their big bombs are already at the forefront of technology.

Although there is not much kerosene, it is enough to light the long ladder.

The Dunlanders were startled when they saw the long ladder burning with flames. Then the kerosene flowed down very smoothly, and they were set on fire.

The Dunlanders screamed and jumped down the long ladder, but the flames of kerosene were not so easy to extinguish.

Although King Theoden did not have time to bring too many supplies, he was not unprepared to prevent siege. After all, this was common sense. At most, it was not as much work as Chang Wei.

Therefore, the quantity of kerosene is not bad, but Chang Wei likes to use fire to attack. The main reason is that when playing with poison, it is easy to hurt yourself first and then others, and it is easier to control flames.

Of course, Chang Wei also watched the sky at night and chose the fire attack when he found that the wind direction was favorable to them. Otherwise, if the wind direction was against the wind and there was a fire attack, wouldn't he be burned?
More than 20 long ladders were ignited by the flames. The raging flames made the long ladders that were not easy to burn after treatment now crackle.

However, in addition to the siege ladder, the Denlanders also smashed the castle gate. They used thick and huge trees to smash the door. After Chang Wei saw them raising their shields to resist the arrows, he did not let anyone Keep shooting so you don't waste your arrows.

It's just that they don't have any good methods in this direction besides shooting arrows.

But Chang Wei has already asked people to make Molotov cocktails.

Take a fragile wine bottle, fill it with kerosene, plug a rag into the mouth of the bottle, and light a flame to create a simple Molotov cocktail.

Chang Wei threw such an incendiary bomb, and it hit the siege tree trunk. The wine bottle shattered with the sound, and the kerosene inside splashed. At the same time, the flames on the rag ignited the kerosene, instantly burning the siege tree trunk. stand up!
At this time, the Denlanders finally couldn't bear it any more, and they had the intention of retreating. Any creature was afraid of the flames.

"This thing is really useful!"

Aragorn looked at a box of Molotov cocktails next to him. He didn't know the use of such things before, but now he knew.

I couldn't help feeling that Chang Wei was always able to come up with new tricks, which made him not even know what to say.

And Aragorn and the others also had the idea that they could make such a simple Molotov cocktail casually, but it was very lethal. Those Dunlanders who were splashed with kerosene had no time to take off their clothes. Then he fell down with a howl and was burned to ashes.

There was a strange burnt aroma in the air, but anyone who smelled it couldn't help but vomit.

The Dunlanders wanted to retreat, but the Orcs did not agree. They betrayed the humans and took refuge with Saruman, thinking that they would be treated well.

As a result, they did not expect to be used as cannon fodder and food by the strong orcs, which made the Dunlanders feel very angry. However, the strong orcs were outnumbered and they did not dare to resist. They could only swing their swords at the weaker ones.

But now there is no way to even do this, because the Horn Castle is obviously a tough nut to crack.

The strong orcs pressed forward, and the Denlanders who retreated were beheaded with their swords.There was no other way, the Denlanders could only charge again.

Fortunately, the orcs also came along this time.

This time, the Horn Castle failed to stop the attack. Although it also caused casualties, the Orcs and Dunlanders still charged to the bottom of the city wall.

However, because the siege ladder was burned down, they could only choose to attack the castle gate.

Seeing that the city gate was in danger, Aragorn asked the elven archers to cover him. He jumped down with the holy sword and rushed out from the north side of the city gate.

The Orcs and Dunlanders were caught off guard, and Aragorn, armed with the holy sword Fire of the West, was unstoppable.

Every swing of the sword was accompanied by the sound of howling and fierce wind. This holy sword was incredibly sharp. The armor and shield of the strong orcs were no more than tofu in front of the holy sword. Aragorn chopped melons and vegetables, and the autumn wind swept away fallen leaves. block.

The dwarf Gimli and the others also jumped down. Except for the dwarf Gimli who wielded his axe, the others all used elven daggers to attack, which also caused one-sided casualties to the strong orcs.

Legolas's arrows were all in vain. Every time he loosened the bowstring, one or two orcs would fall, and their armor could not block Legolas' arrows.

At this time, the strong orcs took out new siege tools.

Hook!

This kind of thing is more laborious than a long ladder, but it is light and easy to carry, and at the same time, there are many!
Just because of Chang Wei's negligence, hundreds of hooks were thrown up. Some hooked on the city wall, and some hooked on people. They immediately screamed and were pulled down by the strong orcs.

Those strong orcs and Denlanders who had hooked the city wall quickly climbed up along the hook ropes. Chang Wei, with quick eyes and quick hands, grabbed the Molotov cocktail, lit it, and smashed it down. The place he hit was not the strong orcs, but the city wall itself!

The fire oil splashed and spread, and the flames spread all over the city wall.

"Clap! Clap! Clap!"

Others quickly followed suit and threw Molotov cocktails, and the rope of the hook was quickly ignited. The Orcs and Dunlanders had to retreat in front of the fire wall tactics.

The city walls were cracked by the flames and made rattling noises. Even the intense heat wave and steam made the defenders unable to open their eyes, so naturally they could not continue to hold on.

Fortunately, the strong orcs and Denlanders could not continue to attack the city.

The flames lasted until midnight and then extinguished, leaving white smoke and the unpleasant smell of oil smoke rising from the charred city walls.

Neither the Orcs nor the Denlanders continued their attack, but they could see that the people in the Horn Castle relied too much on fire attacks, but it didn't matter, fire attacks couldn't be used all the time.

Fire oil and wind direction are all factors that limit fire attack. Otherwise, if fire attack is so good, why hasn't it become mainstream?
Isn't it just consumption? With such a large number of strong orcs, there is really no need to worry about consumption.

Chang Wei actually didn't understand why they didn't change the big bomb into a grenade and throw it in. In that case, the Horn Fort would not be able to defend it.
