It looks simple, but it's easy to say.
Isn't it just to let the soldiers who maintain the shield wall in front get out of the way while the defensive crossbow is firing?
But it is such a simple thing, but it is not easy to do it!
Shooting with a crossbow behind the shield wall and firing a bow and arrow behind the shield wall are two different concepts.
A large ordnance of the bed crossbow level is not as easy to control as a bow or hand crossbow.
This is not the first time it has been said.
Those big shield soldiers blocking the front, and the bed crossbow firing from behind?
In case the soldier operating the crossbow defending the city bed misses.
Or something happened to the defensive crossbow, causing the attack trajectory to deviate.
The big shield soldier standing in front will end up dead without a place to bury him!
It's like standing in front of the muzzle of a cannon as it fires.
As long as you are a person, you will be afraid and nervous.
What this defending force just showed is discipline and trust!
This is a force with iron discipline and absolute trust between soldiers!
How could such an army be easy to deal with?
Realizing this, Lombard completely lost the casualness and calmness he had at the beginning, and his entire expression became visibly serious.
"The bed crossbow continues to attack! The archers spread out left and right, retreat to the two wings, and take lob shots for cover!"
A series of orders were issued quickly.
The troops sent by William Zhang to attack the city this time can undoubtedly be called a well-trained elite troops.
The remains of the siege bed crossbow did not hold them back.
Soldiers of the elves, under the pressure of being taken away by a shot from the siege bed crossbow at any time, began to manipulate the siege bed crossbows they were responsible for.
On the other side, the elf archers who also received the order retreated to the left and right wings of the entire battle formation.
Afterwards, one by one, they bent their bows and set their arrows, and then quickly aimed the arrow's front sight at a height close to [-] degrees above their heads.
Immediately afterwards, Lombard gave an order.
The elf archers fired their arrows at the same time.
A salvo shot out immediately.
The overwhelming rain of arrows almost fell from the sky.
Pressing against the wall of Hot Sand City!
When learning the range of the elf archer on the opposite side.
Zhao Pan was obviously already guarding against this move.
Because no matter what kind of archer, there are basically only two attack methods on the battlefield.
One is a penetrating shot, and the other is a lob shot.
Penetration is equivalent to straight-line sniping, and the arrows shot are almost in a straight line.
It is an attack aimed at killing the enemy in front of him with one arrow and piercing through the enemy's body. The accuracy and lethality of this attack are very impressive.
The lob shot is an auxiliary method. After the shot, it has a huge parabola and can fly farther.
However, there is basically not much power left when you open the bow and release the arrow. The power depends entirely on the inertia when it falls, and the accuracy is also reduced, so it is generally used to suppress the enemy's formation or cover.
All changes remain the same, on the battlefield, apart from these two attack modes, it is difficult for archers to have a third one.
After confirming this point, it will not make people feel overwhelmed.
But even so, it was undoubtedly the first time Zhao Pan encountered a lob shot from 400 meters away.
Neither their human archers nor the orc vulpine archers had such an exaggerated range.
In previous siege battles, the only thing that could threaten the top of the wall at that distance was the siege bed crossbow!
The range advantage of the elf archers on the opposite side was greater than he expected.
If left alone.
They couldn't fight back, and the siege troops on the opposite side could advance unscrupulously.
At this point, Zhao Pan's steady voice sounded on the wall again.
"The No. [-] and No. [-] three-bow bed crossbows switch to scattered arrow mode, attacking the elf archer troops on the left and right wings outside the city respectively, and the other three-bow bed crossbows try their best to destroy the siege equipment on the opposite side!"
The elf archer's ultra-long-range lob shot suppression is an unsolvable attack for most players in the same rank.
Just like Luo Ji had the advantage of the three-bow bed crossbow at that time.
However, facing this range, the 'Scattered Arrow' that Michelle Ye had researched before was just able to counterattack!
The goblin soldiers manipulating the three-bow bed crossbow moved quickly.
The surrounding shield-bearing soldiers are responsible for protecting their safety.
A specially made 'scattered arrow' was quickly installed.
During this period, the siege crossbows of the elf army outside the city were naturally not idle.
Directly towards the wall of Hot Sand City, launched the first round of salvo!
However, the skills of the elf soldiers on the opposite side to manipulate the siege equipment are obviously not as skilled as the goblin soldiers.
At the same time, coupled with the psychological pressure that may be blown up at any time.
The first round of volleys they vowed to make ended in a disastrous end.
Although they didn't hit empty, they all fell on the city wall.
But at this time Lombar's goal was obviously not the city wall.
To him, hitting the city wall of Steam Sand City was not much different from being shot empty.
However, he is a veteran of the battlefield after all.
Lombard was quite calm.
He knew that a large ordnance such as a siege bed crossbow needs to slowly adjust the attack angle according to the landing point of each attack.
Within three rounds of salvo, if it can destroy a defensive bed crossbow on the opposite side, that is high precision.
Those who can blow up the target in the second round are at the level of a sharpshooter.
As for their siege bed crossbow that was destroyed by the first round of fire from the opposite side.
Even Zhao Pan and the goblin soldier who shot that shot had to admit that there was a lot of luck involved.
Unless the target is too big, such as city walls, city gates, and sentry towers.
Otherwise, if you want to fire in the first round and hit it with one blow, saying that there is no luck in it, it is probably false.
The offensive on both sides continues.
Compared with the continuous lobbing and suppression of the elf army outside the city.
The counterattack from Steam Sand City was relatively weak.
But definitely strong enough!
Taking advantage of the opportunity of the opponent's siege bed crossbow to re-strike and reload the crossbow.
The siege bed crossbow on the Steam Sand city wall fired again!
After the simple adjustment of the attack angle by the goblin soldiers, the hit rate has definitely improved significantly.
At that time, only another loud bang was heard.
There was no direct hit, and one of the heavy crossbow arrows flying out should have only scratched the edge of the siege bed crossbow.
But that tyrannical power is enough to destroy the siege bed crossbow.
At the same time, the special scattered arrows that were shot towards the left and right wings also opened with two 'bang, bang' sounds.
The rain of arrows scattered like a celestial maiden scattered flowers, swept directly towards the formation of elf archers below!Want to chat about "{?$article_title?}" with more like-minded people, follow "Youdu Literature?" on WeChat, chat about life, and find friends~
Chapter 658, Flying Around
The sudden rain of arrows overwhelmingly overwhelmed them.
That momentary change came so fast that the elf archers below couldn't react at once.
Even the expression on his face remained unchanged for a few seconds.
On the contrary, it was Long Barr who stood in the center and commanded the siege. After hearing the 'bang, bang', he was startled when he quickly remembered something.
Before his brain reacted, his hands holding the sword had already waved it one step ahead!
A swing of the sword directly set off a strong gust of wind!
Lombard was not an elf mage, the reason why he was able to cast the third-order gust of wind all benefited from the magic weapon in his hand that was carefully forged by their elf craftsmen.
Of course, a long sword with a third-order spell like this cannot be a rotten item.
In an entire elven civilization, there are only two.
One, in his hand.
The other one is in the hands of Zhang William, who is the king of elves.
From this point alone, one can see his status in the elf civilization.
Of course, the two long swords also have strengths and weaknesses, and Zhang Weilian's is better.
And weapons like Karen and Hudlin.
That would be one level lower than him.
It's just a simple addition of an enhanced spell that increases attack speed and power.
At this time, a sword was swung out, and Lombal, who had triggered the Gale Art, directly blew away the rain of arrows.
Disintegrate the crisis of the archers on this side.
However, he can save the left side, but he can't save the right side!
The screams from the elf archers on the right made his heart twitch violently.
In the very urgent situation at that time, he habitually asked the elf archers in the back row to form a layout to disperse the firepower on the other side.
As it turns out, getting used to this stuff is pretty scary.
Even Longbar, who is a veteran on the battlefield, was fooled by his own habits at that moment.
Instead of concentrating long-range arms in one place, spread out the two wings.
This is a very common layout.
Because this layout has many advantages.
For example, you can further increase the suppression range of the archers' lob shots.
For example, when the opponent wants to counterattack, facing two elf archers scattered in two places, the firepower on the opposite side will also be dispersed.
And if the opposite side concentrates fire on one place, then the elf archers on the other side can unscrupulously carry out comfortable output.
For another example, this layout can also prevent the rear row of troops from being taken away by the enemy cavalry units that may come out in one go.
The advantage is very clear.
But the special situation of the Myriad Worlds Civilization caught Lombard by surprise!
However, he did not bring the two archers back together.
Instead, taking advantage of the reloading time of the crossbow defending the city on the opposite side, quickly let the shield-wielding troops step forward to protect.
The wild wind technique on his long sword is not endless.
Even an elf mage like Iverson cannot cast Tier [-] spells unscrupulously.
Let alone him?
