Chapter 1165 (2/2)
No block.
You can only fill it with your life.
William frowned. Even if he was one of the top ten generals in the world and was good at using tricks and soldiers, he couldn't do the job of ”a clever woman can't cook without rice”. Of course, he believes that even if the steel wings do not have an impact shield, it is not a problem to block the charge of the skeleton cavalry. After all, the skeleton cavalry is only a third-order undead. At best, it is a fourth-class army. If the standard is poor, it is only the level of the third-class army. It is no problem to block the steel wings that have reached the level of the fifth class.
However, this is a cavalry charge after all. Without the special ability of impact shield, there will be casualties.
In the case of casualties that can be avoided, William is not willing.
But before William and others came up with a good way, those skeleton mages who gathered together launched acid rain magic.
Green rain began to fall in the cloudy sky.
”Hide!” William roared in a deep voice.
Those steel winged soldiers standing under the city wall immediately looked for buildings nearby to take shelter.
The wild fortress has been empty since it was broken for the first time. Although the Cruz touch destroyed one-third of the fortress, this unmanned city has plenty of places to rest. Therefore, even if there are nearly 100000 troops, there is no place to rest. At this time, except for 30000 steel winged soldiers on the wall of the fortress, the rest of the Legion were taking a rest for the next war, so the acid rain had no impact on them.
What's more, now that they have received William's order, these people will not come out to make trouble.
The 30000 steel winged soldiers standing on the wall also began to form ten small steel winged arrays according to Cecilia's urgent orders.
Each array of 3000 people, collect shields, stick to each other, stand on the side, and lift only 800 shields.
The impact shield is a heavy tower shield. One shield can accommodate three to four people to hide together, and the coverage area formed when 800 shields are lifted together is naturally not small. Four hundred people are enough to hide in 3600 people. However, the shield lifting method of the steel wing array is not to fully expand the heavy shield, but is similar to the construction method of the white bone ladder: shield folding shield. In this way, although the scale will be smaller, the scale of 3000 people is still enough.
This way of stacking shields can naturally ensure that only a part of the impact of one shield is borne each time. Just adjust the angle of lifting the shield and the overlapping place, and one shield can be reused three or four times. Even if it is calculated three times, this small steel wing array can make a resistance time of up to nine minutes. As for the last minute, it can only fight to completely lose 800 impact shields.
As for Levi and other strong people, they are naturally not afraid of this acid rain magic. Although William is just an ordinary person and has no self-protection ability, he has a group of strong people around him, which is more than enough to protect him.
Because of the fall of acid rain, the defense capability of the whole fortress wall was almost completely disintegrated.
However, the damage of this kind of large-scale magic does not distinguish between the enemy and ourselves. Therefore, the attack range of casting magic is only limited to the wall of the fortress and the whole fortress, and does not expand the range to the white bone ladder under construction.
Therefore, without any interference and obstruction, the construction speed of the white bone ladder obviously becomes faster and more crazy. Almost every minute, we can see that a new layer of the white bone ladder has been built. At this time, the height of the whole white bone ladder has reached 20 floors, and the height is almost 17 meters, and the spread length is more than 30 meters. Except that there is no structure at the gate, the white bone ladder built around the walls on both sides of the gate has an unusually complete prototype.
I'm afraid that in a short time, the 30 meter high wall will not be able to block the undead army outside the Great Wall.
But soon, the army of the dead didn't even let the garrison of the fortress watch the progress. Because of the need to stop acid rain, the steel winged defenders hold the impact shield high, and those who do not hold it high also close in the array, which is very much like an eagle with convergent wings. Therefore, those skeletal archers have a higher chance of free attack. In order to avoid losses, William could only order Abaza to retreat the steel wings on the city wall, not too close to the edge of the city wall.
Looking at the originally offensive and defensive war situation, just because there was a skeleton mage group in the undead army, the good situation was completely suppressed and subverted, and even the counterattack could not be done. William's heart was almost bent and vomiting blood.
Since he became the military commander of the void duchy, he has never fought such a cowardly war!
William's teeth are almost broken!
