Chapter 913: City Gate Attack and Defense
As soon as a gap opened up in the city gate, the rat slave soldiers who were blocked from the door got in through the crack at the bottom like crazy.
Regarding this situation, the speed dragon cavalry led by Tash were all calm, without any surprise.
On the contrary, Bai Tu's nerves quickly became tense. The rat man's madness could be said to be far beyond his imagination!
Before this, he could not believe that there was such a crazy race in the world.
In order to reduce the probability of unexpected situations, they quickly speeded up and raised the city gate.
"The whole army charges! For the Emperor!!"
"For the Emperor!!!"
Shi Lei originally fought to boost morale in response to the invasion of the green-skinned troops. The slogans shouted out now, due to a combination of circumstances, can be said to have completely spread among Da Zhou's troops.
One by one, one learns quickly.
Amidst the passionate war roars, the dragon cavalry filed out from the city gate. The rat tide that rushed in was hit head-on on the spot, and was defeated by this swift charge!
At this moment, the speed dragon cavalry who rushed into the rat tide was like the sharpest blade, tearing apart the black rat tide completely with the force of breaking bamboo!
But at the same time, a large number of rat slave soldiers also seized this opportunity and poured into the city gate passage.
When he ordered the city gate to be opened before, Bai Tu had anticipated this situation in advance.
It’s not like we’re in chaos now.
"On top of the spear formation! Block the exit!"
The spearmen who had withdrawn from the city gate passage were all waiting outside the passage.
Now that Bai Tu gave the order, they immediately formed a spear formation again and blocked the exit at the other end of the passage with the shimmering spear points.
As long as the rat slave soldiers cannot break through this blockade, there will be no way to truly invade the inside of the fortress.
Of course, just blocking this end is definitely not safe enough. It cannot withstand any risks. If there is a slight mistake, the rat men will completely invade the interior.
"Advance! Push the battlefield outside the city gate!"
After stabbing to death the group of rat slave soldiers rushing to the front with a smooth attack, Bai Tu immediately ordered to advance. .
"For the Emperor!"
"For the Emperor!!"
The support of the Velociraptor Cavalry greatly boosted the morale of the soldiers. At this moment, one by one, It's like taking a shot of chicken blood, as if all the pressure has been swept away, and the state has improved significantly.
With every step forward, the spears in the hands of the soldiers thrust out again and again. The momentum of the entire advance was unstoppable, and the battlefield was pushed outside the city gate in a short period of time.
At the same time, the entry of the Velociraptor Cavalry was like dropping a bombshell into the rat tide.
For the fragile rat slave soldiers, the lethality of the cavalry charge is not insignificant. The speed dragon cavalry led by Tash maintained an astonishing momentum and killed towards the periphery of the battlefield. !
Their purpose is very obvious, which is to directly break through the rat tide and escape from the battlefield!
Charging towards the rat tide requires a lot of risk.
If he didn't have enough experience, even Tash, who has always been ambitious, wouldn't dare to do this.
After all, the density and scale of this rat tide are too exaggerated. If the cavalry unit suddenly stalls in the middle of the charge and is surrounded by the rat tide, it will basically be dead!
At this moment, looking at the Velociraptor Cavalry troops dividing the battlefield with their powerful charges, the Ratman Commander in the rear position had a slightly gloomy expression.
【What's going on? The Velociraptor Cavalry is coming out now? Could it be that the other side sensed that I wanted to attack directly? 】This wave of offensive, the Ratman Commander's idea is very simple, that is, to use the lizard people's inertial thinking to make the opponent subconsciously think that their offensive this year will still be the same as in previous years, slowly fighting a war of attrition, and completing the annual attrition task. Return home.
At the same time, on the surface, he did pretend to be that way and did not perform any obvious operations.
But in fact, they are using their strength secretly.
In this state, if the opponent is relaxed and careless due to inertial thinking, then he can immediately seize the opportunity and attack the opponent's fortress.
At that time, the main battlefield will be transferred directly to the opposite fortress. The change in the environment will be enough to limit the performance of the opposite cavalry troops. Once this situation is formed, they will have won more than half of the victory.
Who would have thought that at this juncture, the Velociraptor Cavalry would dispatch directly.
The charge of the Velociraptor Cavalry not only quickly reduced the strength of their rat tide, but also achieved the effect of dividing the battlefield. During this period, they inevitably drew away a large number of rat slave soldiers, which in disguise weakened their siege force.
Considering the Skaven Commander's original plan, this is obviously not a good thing.
"Commander, do we want to continue the attack now?"
The adjutant beside him is undoubtedly aware of this. The number of their rat slave soldiers is indeed huge, and they also have night vision. , and it doesn’t matter whether the attack time is day or night, it doesn’t make much difference to them.
But! The issue of physical strength cannot be ignored.
This is also the biggest reason why the rat troops will withdraw and recuperate in due course.
However, at this moment, facing the adjutant’s question, the Ratman Commander shook his head.
“No, continue the attack!”
“A group of humans came from nowhere and got involved with the lizard people.”
“The lizard people went first. No matter, humans don’t have night vision, it’s good for us after dark, and it’s also good to cause more casualties to the opponent.”
With the rat leaders speaking out, the rat tide offensive continued.
During this period, the sun set in the west and the sky quickly darkened. However, the rat tide showed no intention of retreating and still surrounded their fortress on an astonishing scale.
Facing this situation, Soros, who was standing on top of the wall and commanding the battle, knew it well.
This battle is probably going to last until dawn...
[These stinky rats have indeed identified the fact that human soldiers have no night vision. 】
The shrouded night doubled the pressure on the soldiers led by Bai Tu. Bai Tu made a prompt decision and ordered the city gate to be closed.
While allowing the soldiers time to rest and recuperate, it also gives themselves time to carry out subsequent deployments.
Baitu, who had already realized the importance of the city gate, did not let the city gate close for too long and quickly opened it again.
At that moment, the tide of rats crowding outside the city gate did not disappoint him at all and immediately rushed in.
However, this time, what greeted them was no longer the sharp spear array of the spearmen, but burning fire arrows!
At the same time, the rat slave soldiers who rushed in quickly discovered that a large amount of wood had been piled up in the city gate passage without knowing it, and there was enough kerosene poured on it!
Almost the moment the fire arrow fell, the astonishing fire suddenly sprang up and engulfed all the rat slave soldiers who rushed up!
