Chapter 994 Zhao Pan's Discovery
The second round of the dwarf army's attack is coming soon.
In this round of offense, John Sal opened a hole card that did not surprise Zhao Pan too much.
That's the cannon!
After seeing the strange weapon of yesterday, it is really not surprising that the other party can take out the artillery.
In the previous round of siege battle, the opposite side didn't directly push out the cannon, probably because they were afraid of the three-bow crossbow they deployed on both sides of the mountain wall.
However, after the battle yesterday, half of the mountain walls on both sides were blown down by the explosive packs of the opposite balloon soldiers, which weakened the firepower of the Beishan Fortress.
Only then did John Sall open the trump card of the cannon generously.
At the same time, probably in order to guard against the sniping of the elf archers, the large shield soldiers stood around the cannon, almost forming a tank formation, leaving only one muzzle outside.
From a distance, it really does have the meaning of a 'tank'.
Amid the roar of artillery fire, a new round of battle started again! The dwarf heavy armored infantry in heavy armor covered the dwarf musketeer and quickly advanced towards the north mountain fortress.
Faced with such a situation, Zhao Pan, who was standing on the wall, saw the move, and while letting the defending troops on the wall suppress it with long-range firepower, he quickly issued an order...
"All thunder mages, prepare for the second-order thunderstorm technique!"
Under the rapid chants of the mage troops, the Thunderstorm Technique, a second-order attack spell, was already pinched in their hands.
Seeing the moment when the dwarf heavy armored infantry on the opposite side broke into their attack range, Zhao Pan waved his hand...
"attack!!"
After this order, a large number of thunderstorm spells immediately smashed towards the dwarf heavy armored infantry below.
After the thunderstorm technique exploded, the raging electric current suddenly made the dwarf heavy-armored infantry who invaded from outside the city let out a shrill scream, and then fell heavily to the ground.
This situation gave John Sal, who was commanding the battle at the rear, a tight heart, but Zhao Pan, who was standing on the wall, was already showing obvious joy on his face.
"it is as expected!"
In the previous battle of defending the city, Zhao Pan, who was standing on the wall, had been observing the opposite side.
In the face of the heavy armored infantry wrapped in thick armor, the effects of attack spells such as explosive fireballs, gale bombs, and flying stone techniques do not seem to be particularly good.
But this thunderstorm technique alone seems to have caused obvious damage to the opponent, and it can even be said that the effect is outstanding!
Before this, Luo Ji obviously hadn't specially taught him the physical reaction that metal can conduct electricity, mainly because the current Myriad Realms civilization does not need this kind of knowledge for the time being, but at this moment, Zhao Pan has passed My own observation, found this.
He may not know the principle here, but as long as he knows that thunder spells are useful for heavy armored infantry, it will be easy!
"Thunder Mage continues to cast thunderstorm, all elf archers, put on lightning arrows!"
The issuance of a set of orders directly caused the violent current to rage on the battlefield.
John Sall watching this scene is also heart pumping.
The heavy armored infantry that he was proud of was actually planted on that metal armor? Killed by the opposing magic armies in terms of attributes? !
With such a high frequency of thunder-type attacks, he had never encountered many on the battlefield of the black iron rank.
The screams of the dwarf soldiers kept getting into his ears at the moment.
Before he could think about it, John Thrall quickly ordered the dwarf musketeers under his command to suppress the opposite wall.
In a series of dense gunshots, the suppression of the dwarf musketeer played a certain role, and bought him time to think.
At this moment, the balance of pros and cons in John Sall's mind is swinging from side to side.
This invasion war, if he insisted on fighting, obviously can be fought.
Because according to his experience, a spell attack like this cannot be cast endlessly.
Once the mana of the mage arms is used up, it will take a long time to recover, and in subsequent battles, they will no longer be able to continue to provide effective combat power.
As for the magic arrow with attribute attack, although he had never seen it before, it could not be a bargain no matter how he thought about it. It was a precious military material, and the quantity was definitely limited.
In other words, as long as he consumes it, he has a chance of winning.
However, the price paid during this period will inevitably be a little too high.
To pay such a price for a Yodel Senko who disliked each other with him?
John Sal would be happy to have a ghost.
But if it is withdrawn like this, the big brother of the alliance is a little difficult to explain.
For a while, John Sal's mood was also a little irritable.
"Fire! Keep firing at me!!"
The power of their dwarf cannons is obviously beyond doubt. After all, the racial talent is there, and the destructive power caused by the blasting of the cannonballs is even stronger than the cannons of Ten Thousand World Civilizations.
The roar of artillery fire put a lot of pressure on the defending troops.
Seeing an opportunity, John Sall retreated decisively, allowing the battle to temporarily end in a situation of non-compromise.
After the war, looking at the devastated fortress city wall, Zhao Pan's face was full of solemnity, and he quickly called the goblin engineers over and asked them to carry out urgent repair work on the city wall.
On the other hand, John Sal, who had withdrawn to the camp, was also determined in his heart after simply counting the casualties of his army.
"Damn! Just this one, after this invasion battle, it is an explanation for the big guys in the alliance, and I won't get involved in the future troubles!"
After making up his mind, John Sal couldn't help but start to think about how to deal with the lightning-type magic attack on the opposite side.
As a modern man, he naturally knows that the key here lies in the 'conductive' properties of metal armor.
But what can he do? Where can he find armor that acts as an insulator for a while?
Although it is possible to use up all the mana of the opposing mage in a war of attrition, the price is really painful.
As his thoughts flew around, his eyes swept across the bare trees outside the camp, and John Sal, who seemed to have thought of something, slapped his thigh fiercely...
"Go and chop down all the big trees you can find nearby for me!"
The action on the side of the dwarf camp reached Zhao Pan's ears immediately, causing his brows to wrinkle slightly.
"Large-scale tree cutting? What is the other party trying to do?"
Obviously, in a fundamental sense, Zhao Pan, who is still an ancient man, cannot understand the actions of a modern player in a short period of time.
"Continue to stare, confirm their follow-up actions, and report to me as soon as possible."
The update is sent, and I also thank the book friends for their monthly passes of "Seven Deadly Sins and Wrath", "Witch Remnant", "Thousands of Rain", "A Touch of Sadness", "FiVE", and "DustDream"!
