Chapter 762: Siege in the Classical Era
Zhang Tuohai drove the flying saucer directly above the palace.
At this time, he could see three vehicles parked at the gate of the palace, a Hummer, a luxury RV and a tank.
These players are using the vehicle-mounted machine guns to suppress the palace.
There were five or six players holding assault , using the car body as cover and firing bursts of fire into the palace.
Behind them, there were thousands of soldiers holding various weapons. The eldest prince, wearing golden plate armor, was directing everyone to prepare ladders and battering rams in preparation for breaking through the gate of the palace.
In the palace, people would occasionally fight back with bows and arrows.
It's just that it's scattered and not on a large scale.
It was a shame to see the players below holding epoch-making weapons and actually fighting to a draw with the natives holding bows and spears.
"Are your cars just for show? You need ladders and battering rams to attack a palace like this? Why don't you just drive in? Just drive in, step on the accelerator and push the palace gate open and rush in. You don't even have that much courage. You're still hesitating at the door and you still want to rebel?"
Zhang Tuohai couldn't stand the actions of these players and rebels and almost forgot his position.
However, the actions of these players are indeed annoying. It would be fine if the RV and Hummer could not climb the more than ten steps, but isn’t there a tank?
A tank can’t be unable to climb up just a dozen steps, right?
No way, no way?
Wait, this tank is a Saint-Chamon?
That's okay.
When Zhang Tuohai saw the specific model , he instantly understood why these players didn't drive tanks to ram the palace gate.
It's just that Saint-Chamond's performance doesn't allow it.
The Saint-Chamond tank was a tank developed by the Gauls during World War I. This tank had a huge body and two short and small tracks, even shorter than those of some authors. It could not even cross a wider trench, let alone the more than ten high steps.
The saddest thing is that the front armor of this old tank is only 14 mm, which can only bully cold weapons such as bows and arrows. Even if the opponent's weapon is replaced with a bolt-action rifle, it would probably have been blown up long ago.
Zhang Tuohai estimated that if the four machine guns on the vehicle had not been so powerful, they might have been surrounded by the palace guards by now.
At this time, the eldest prince wearing golden plate armor and his men finally prepared the ladders and battering rams for siege.
Hundreds of strong men, under the protection of tower shields, pushed the huge battering ram slowly towards the city gate.
At this time, the defenders on the city wall were also well aware of the danger of the battering ram. If the battering ram was really allowed to get close, the city gate would inevitably be breached , and their last barrier would be gone.
The defenders on the city wall began to fight back desperately. Not only were their bows and arrows wrapped with cloth strips soaked in kerosene, but they were even covered with boiled feces.
All kinds of debris hit the battering ram like raindrops.
However, as soon as they appeared, the players guarding below finally found an opportunity and started firing with machine guns and assault rifles, killing a large number of defenders in one go and causing the attack on the city wall to come to a halt.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the eldest prince commanded his rebels to push the battering ram to the city gate.
Bang!
With a dull thud, the huge battering ram hit the city gate.
The huge city gate made of solid wood was knocked open, leaving a huge gap with a diameter of more than one meter.
The attack made significant progress. The rebels roared excitedly, pulled the battering ram and continued to hit the city gate.
Seeing all this, Princess Jiali on the flying saucer was extremely anxious. She shouted loudly: "Guy, what are you doing? Are you really going to rebel? I didn't expect you to be such a person. You actually colluded with outsiders to attack your own kingdom. You are betraying me!"
The eldest prince in golden armor heard the voice, turned around and saw Jiali on the flying saucer, a look of astonishment appeared on his face.
According to his plan, his elder sister should have died at the hands of those orcs long ago.
Unexpectedly, she survived and was riding in those strange vehicles of foreigners.
However, he quickly regained his composure and said with a joking smile: "What qualifications do you have to criticize me? Aren't you also colluding with those outsiders? Moreover, the orc disaster occurred when my father was in power, which shows that he was completely incapable of governing this country. In this case, is there anything wrong with me taking over the power?"
"Someone, knock her down for me."
The eldest prince Guy waved his hand, and immediately a group of archers changed direction and aimed their longbows at Zhang Tuohai's flying saucer.
Guy had seen players using drones before, and had even shot one down with a longbow, so when he saw the flying saucer, he was not too surprised. He just treated it as a relatively large drone. Although it could fly in the sky, it was nothing special. It could be easily shot down with a single salvo.
"Ready, fire!"
whoosh whoosh whoosh!
Arrows shot at the UFO like raindrops, completely .
However, when the arrows were about to hit the flying saucer, they simply hovered in mid-air, as if the stop button was pressed.
The next second, the arrows fell to the ground one after another, without even scratching the paint of the flying saucer.
"What's going on?"
Prince Guy was shocked. He had never seen such a thing before.
If the UFO's armor was thick and blocked the arrow attack, it would still be within his understanding. However, the fact that it didn't even touch the armor and lost power and fell down when it was still five or six meters away from the target was really beyond his cognition.
Even the rune armor passed down by our ancestors is only more durable. I have never heard of it being able to make an arrow lose kinetic energy far away.
"What on earth is this?"
Prince Guy felt that something was beyond his control.
Especially his eldest sister who was supposed to die outside.
"Attack her! I don't believe she can remain invincible forever. The rest of you, continue to attack the palace. As long as you take the throne, all the previous rewards will be doubled!"
Guy drew the long sword from his waist: "Come on!"
Encouraged by the huge sum of money, Guy's soldiers worked even harder. The longbowmen continued to cover the flying saucers with fire, while the rest continued to push the battering rams to hit the crumbling city gates. Some quick-handed soldiers even hung ladders with hooks on the city walls and climbed up with shields in hand.
