Seeing the giant arrows raining down from the sky.
The 300 griffin riders only felt cold sweat break out on their backs as they desperately tried to dodge.
However, each griffin was carrying a heavy boulder on its back, so they could not dodge at all.
Moreover, in order to concentrate their firepower on the griffin riders of the Flame Demon tribe, the 300 griffins of the Silver Alliance were all lined up neatly together.
So …
In an instant, the screams of the griffins rang out in the air.
One by one, griffins were hit by the arrows, screaming as they fell.
These griffins were lined up too neatly, and they were too slow. That was why the 700 arrows of the Flame Demon tribe only hit their target 20% of the time.
Over a hundred griffins were hit. Some died, while others were heavily injured.
Griffins were very intelligent animals. Seeing that so many of their companions were injured, they completely ignored the griffin riders on their backs. They all turned sideways to throw off the boulders on their backs, turned around, and fled!
Seeing this scene …
The Silver Alliance chiefs, who had just finished bleeding, felt their hearts bleed again.
Griffins, precious griffins. They had lost over a hundred of them in one go.
Damn it, the Flame Demon tribe even had giant bows that could aim at the sky.
At this moment, many of the chiefs could vaguely see that these giant arrows were shot from the tall trees and the hidden towers on the hillside.
Just how many secret weapons did the Flame Demon tribe have?
This time, Devil King's son-in-law, Naishu, finally could not take it anymore. He said coldly, "Is this how you usually fight?"
The Silver Alliance Leader said in a trembling voice, "No."
Naishu said, "Then how do you usually fight?"
The Silver Alliance Leader said, "Lower your head and charge forward. Once you reach them, kill them!"
Naishu said, "Then lower your head and charge forward. Once you reach them, kill them, don't you?"
"Yes!" The Alliance Master of the Silver Alliance shouted, "Second formation, charge!"
The earth-shattering war drums rang out together.
The second line, a total of four square formations, forty thousand soldiers, charged madly again!
This time, it was still led by Constantine and Alfonso.
The two stared at the sky. Once they saw any traces of the limestone bombs, they would immediately close their eyes and roar.
Soon, the army of forty thousand charged within 500 meters of the city wall.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh …"
Sure enough, another volley of giant ballista bolts and three thousand giant bolts took the lives of another three hundred or so people.
However, Constantine and Alphonso still led the forty thousand strong army in a desperate charge, not even slowing down.
"Catapult, fire …" Following Suo Mo's order, the Dragonblood Legion's main force was sent out.
The gigantic catapults fired dozens of lime bombs in an arc, smashing towards the army.
Constantine and Alphonso roared, "All soldiers, close your eyes and slow down. Listen to the drums and advance!"
"Boom boom boom …"
Tens of thousands of kilograms of quicklime smashed onto the ground, creating a dust storm.
However, only a small portion of the Silver Alliance soldiers had their eyes injured this time.
Moreover, the 40,000 strong army continued to advance in the dust storm by relying on their neat formation and the rhythm of the war drums. Although their rhythm and order were slightly messed up, they still managed to safely pass through the limestone dust storm.
Sure enough, the Lime Bomb attack was very easy to deal with. He could only catch them off guard the first time!
After charging through the lime dust storm, the 40,000 strong army of the Silver Alliance had already charged within 300 to 400 meters of the Flame Demon Tribe's city walls!
Suo Mo took a deep breath and waited quietly.
The enemy army had entered the 300 meter range.
They had entered the 200 meter range!
Suo Mo gave the order and roared in unison, "Fire!"
Immediately, the 20,000 soldiers on the seven-kilometer city wall released their bowstrings.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh …"
Tens of thousands of arrows were fired at the same time, densely packed like a rainstorm!
The Silver Alliance's army died one after another. This round of shooting had resulted in more than four to five hundred casualties.
The remaining forty thousand strong army continued to charge frantically.
"Fire at will …" Suo Mo ordered.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh …"
The Flame Demon Tribe's soldiers on the city wall seized this golden opportunity to fire arrows with all their might.
To the barbarian soldiers, 200 meters only took them less than half a minute to cross!
The barbarian army surged onto the city wall like a tidal wave!
"Bang, bang, bang, bang …"
Dozens of huge siege ladders slammed into the city wall.
Countless soldiers climbed up without any regard for their lives.
The barbarian world did not lack iron, so these ten-meter-tall siege ladders were all made of iron. Only the barbarian soldiers could move them!
After experiencing two setbacks from Li in today's battle, the Silver Alliance's army finally charged onto the city wall for the first time and began the real siege!
…
Suo Mo saw the Silver Alliance soldiers climbing up like ants.
Suo Mo's breathing stagnated as he felt a great pressure.
"Prepare the boiling oil, pour!!"
Following Suo Mo's order, the ropes of hundreds of pots of oil were pulled. The huge oil pots flipped over, and dozens of kilograms of boiling oil were poured down!
This was boiling oil.
Once it was poured down, one's entire body would be cooked!
"Ah … Ah …"
The barbarian soldiers who were splashed with boiling oil had their skin and flesh cooked. They let out incomparably mournful screams as they fell.
"Fish oil bombs, smash!"
Immediately, the Flame Demon Tribe's soldiers on the city wall raised their fish oil bombs and threw them at the siege ladders with all their might.
"Bang, bang, bang!"
The fish oil bombs were filled with coarse pottery. When they smashed onto the steel siege ladders, the fish oil inside splashed onto the ladders.
In just a few seconds.
The enemy soldiers at the front had almost climbed to the top of the city wall.
"Light up, fire!"
The fire arrows shot out and suddenly ignited the fish oil on the siege ladders.
In an instant, the entire ladders were set ablaze.
"Ah … Ah …" The soldiers on the ladder, after being burned by the fire, screamed and fell down.
Some of the barbarian soldiers were incomparably brave. Even after their bodies were set on fire, they still desperately climbed up.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh …"
And the Flame Demon Tribe's expert archers on the city wall specialized in taking care of these especially brave enemies!
…
The battlefield had entered a state of daytime, and the area below the city wall had become a meat grinder!
The ten-meter tall city wall was indeed a huge line of defense. It allowed the soldiers on the city wall to kill the enemy with relative ease.
The Silver Alliance's soldiers were definitely not afraid of death as they frantically climbed up the siege ladders.
And the guards on the city wall desperately threw fish oil bombs at the siege ladders, causing all the ladders to be surrounded by fire at all times.
Soon, the siege ladders were all burned red!
Dozens of siege ladders, hundreds of them, all of them were burned red!
The enemy soldiers used mud and water to desperately extinguish the fire on the siege ladders. Then, they put on leather gloves and wooden shoes and continued to climb up the ladders.
However, the fish oil bombs still smashed down crazily.
After the fire on the siege ladders was extinguished, it was reignited and then extinguished again.
At the same time, the rolling logs, boulders, and arrows on the city wall fell like a storm, almost crazily reaping lives!
The entire battlefield was filled with flames, corpses everywhere, and the sky was shaking!
…
Time passed quickly!
The sun gradually set in the west!
Six hours later!
The sun set in the west, and night fell!
The Silver Alliance's gongs sounded again!
The red-eyed soldiers gritted their teeth and began to retreat!
And this time, the Flame Demon Tribe did not throw lime bombs, nor did they shoot strong crossbows.
Instead, they allowed the remnants of the Silver Alliance to retreat successfully!
The city wall, which had been fighting for six hours, was already pitch-black.
The dozens of siege ladders on it were repeatedly burned red and then repeatedly extinguished with cold water. They were either twisted out of shape or cracked.
The ground below the city wall was densely packed with corpses, truly piling up like a mountain!
…
Inside the Silver Alliance's camp!
The headcount was done. After six hours of fierce battle in the afternoon, there were about 15,000 casualties. Most of them were burned to death, while some were smashed to death or shot to death!
In the first day of fierce battle, the Silver Alliance's 120,000 soldiers had suffered nearly 30,000 casualties.
This loss could be said to be huge!
The twelve tribal chiefs in the central camp all hung their heads dejectedly.
They really did not expect that a mere Flame Demon Tribe would be so difficult to deal with.
They thought that it would be a one-sided battle, but in the end, they ended up with their heads bleeding!
The atmosphere in the camp was very depressing and depressing!
"Hahaha …" Nai Shu suddenly let out a burst of laughter. "Chiefs, why are you so dejected?"
The Silver Alliance's Alliance Master knelt on one knee and said, "I bear the responsibility for today's crushing defeat. Please punish me, Prince Consort!"
Nai Shu said, "That's right, you did make a huge mistake, especially in the battle in the morning. The first time the army panicked and order collapsed, you should have immediately sounded the gongs to retreat. Also, getting 300 Gryphon Riders to line up and carry heavy weights to attack the Flame Demon Tribe's giant ballistae and catapults was also a huge mistake. But there were no mistakes in the battle in the afternoon. I saw a brave, fearless, and elite barbarian army! "
All the chiefs raised their heads and looked at Nai Shu doubtfully.
They had thought that Nai Shu would fly into a rage after being beaten so badly today. They did not expect him to become so easy to talk to.
"That's right, the number of casualties does not look good. We have nearly 30,000 casualties, and we have yet to ascend the enemy's city walls. We also did not cause much damage to the Flame Demon Tribe," Nai Shu said. "But what did the enemy base their victory on? It was fish oil, white ash, and the secret ballistae. Especially the fish oil, which burned our siege ladders red, making it impossible for our soldiers to climb up. "
"But the enemy's fish oil is limited, and this situation is not unsolvable. We just need to get our soldiers to wear iron gloves and iron boots. Of course, it is already too late to mass produce metal gloves and boots, "Nai Shu said." But I believe that the enemy's fish oil will be used up very soon. Once the fish oil is used up, the Flame Demon Tribe's human hybrids will become lambs waiting to be slaughtered. Once they enter close combat, the Flame Demon Tribe will be destroyed! "
"So, we will fight like today, using human lives to deplete the Flame Demon Tribe's fish oil. I want to see how much fish oil they have."
… …
Within the Flame Demon Tribe!
The Flame Demon Tribe had obtained an unprecedented victory in today's battle.
They had eliminated nearly 30,000 enemies, and their own casualties did not exceed 2,000!
The entire tribe's morale was greatly boosted, and their fear of the enemy was greatly reduced.
Only Suo Mo was deeply worried, because he could see very clearly. The victory in the morning had been won by using lime bombs, and the victory in the afternoon had been won by using fish oil fire.
Now, the lime bombs had already lost their effectiveness.
And there were not many fish oil bombs left. Even though the women of the tribe were still brewing fish oil with all their might.
But the battle in the day had already used up 80% of the fish oil.
There were only 70,000 kilograms of fish oil left from the 280,000 kilograms in stock.
This amount of fish oil could only support the battle for two hours at most!
And once the barbarian army charged up the city walls and engaged in close combat, the true danger and the true test would come!
Suo Mo stood at the top of the city wall and looked into the distance, thinking, "Ling, where are you? Did you borrow soldiers? If you still don't appear, the Flame Demon Tribe will be in danger! "
The entire Flame Demon Tribe was celebrating their victory, full of confidence. Only Suo Mo and the others saw the true danger tomorrow!
… …
In the dense forest 80 miles away from the Flame Demon Tribe!
Lan Ling led an army of six thousand centaurs and marched at an unhurried pace!
The centaurs were really awesome. When they ran at high speed, the sound of their hooves was like thunder.
However, when it came to concealing their tracks, the six thousand centaurs didn't make any noise.
That was because when they ran, they used their front hooves to land on the ground. The layer of skin was even harder than steel.
And when they moved stealthily, they used the back half of their hooves to cushion the ground. This part of the flesh was tough and full of elasticity, and almost made no sound when they landed on the ground.
Lan Ling saw the battle in the day clearly, and it made him very excited.
The situation was better than he had imagined.
The Flame Demon Tribe relied on themselves and all kinds of weapons to not only repel the enemy, but also achieve glorious results.
"Master, we only need to charge at those lowly barbarian soldiers, and we can defeat them. We can kill them all!" Xie Li Khagan said, "Our brothers can't bear to kill anymore. When will you let us start a massacre?"
Lan Ling said, "Tomorrow, tomorrow. If nothing goes wrong, tomorrow at noon, you will descend from the sky, reverse the situation, and annihilate all the enemies! "
… …
At the same time, a bird was captured in the Silver Alliance's camp. There were a few words written on the feather.
There was less than one-third of the fish oil left!
Someone in the Flame Demon Tribe secretly sent information outside.
The White Rakshasa King's son-in-law, Nai Shu, looked at the sky and muttered to himself, "Less than one-third. That is to say, at noon tomorrow, we can kill our way into the Flame Demon Tribe and kill all the human bastards!"
… …
The next day, dawn!
An intense battle started again!
Lan Ling led the centaur army and was 15 miles away from the Flame Demon Tribe!
The moment of destruction was coming!
