252 Sugar-coated cannonballs and the drowning (4D, ask for monthly pass)(1/6)
Dongzheng City is the city of Sousa.
This city was built by Sosa, and even its name commemorates Sosa's achievements.
During the Holy War eight years ago, Sousa was still a master hero and had been serving as Queen Catherine's bodyguard.
Roland retreated to the Reedy Lake, and the Deep River was renamed the Burning River. Queen Catherine and Sir Mulak tried to turn the tide and prevent Orver's invasion.
Ofer built a Ranluo City near the Ranluo River, and the entire battlefield fell into a stalemate.
Neither the devil nor the castle forces could have imagined that the turning point of that holy war would be a little-known master hero.
Under the orders of Queen Catherine, Sousa led a large number of crusaders to detour from the eastern border of Erathia, passed through the long and dangerous wild monster area, and cut into the rear of Over.
Historically known as the Crusades.
Sousa successfully embarked on a legendary path in battle after battle, and her Crusader troops also advanced into the extremely powerful miraculous unit, the Glory Crusaders.
Sousa continued to harass the hell's rear, making it impossible for the hell forces to pursue the victory.
Later, as the great explorer Christian joined Erathia, the human forces adjusted their troops, and the situation on the battlefield finally reversed.
The two new legends, Sousa and Christian, have become a problem that Over cannot solve. If they continue to fight, it will become a war of attrition for both sides.
This ultimately led to the decisive battle between angels and demons starting early and the Holy War ending early.
That holy war was supposed to be a huge defeat for the castle forces, but it was forced to a draw by Sousa's Crusade.
Turning the tide before it fell and holding the building back from falling, Sousa became famous in one battle.
After a holy war was fought, statues of Sosa wearing a hooded helmet were erected in various cities in Erathia.
No citizen of Erathia would have thought that Sosa would choose to rebel.
The church had been controlling the trend of public opinion, spinning the news that Sosa was captured by Hell during the last Crusade and was a spy from Hell.
However, with Sir Mulak's rebellion, the church's public opinion offensive collapsed instantly.
One is Erathia's new female war goddess Sousa, and the other is Mrak, who has fought through life and death for Erathia several times and can be called a model knight.
Behind them stood the two strongest arms of the human camp: swordsmen and knights.
These two arms are the main fighting class of the human camp.
As a result, most sensible people in Erathia realized that something was wrong.
Sousa and Sir Mrak, are they rebelling against Erathia, or the angels and the church?
This issue also caused an uproar among players.
The first main mission that castle force players receive is to attack Dongzheng City.
The main city, Dongzheng City, together with the county towns and acropolis of Dongzheng City, have a total of forty-five cities.
Players will receive a large number of meritorious deeds and rewards for any city they conquer.
In his previous life, under siege by angels and other church heroes, Sousa only lasted three months before entering a long period of escape.
But now, everything has changed.
The increase in the intensity of the war forced the church to temporarily put down its siege on Sosa. The angels did not come, and the pseudo-legends in various cities were also ready to support the main battlefield at any time.
Only the lord of White Rock City, the pseudo-legendary hero Gail Moss, and the church's pseudo-legendary hero Judas are holding back Sousa's troops.
The two pseudo-legends knew very well that they were no match for Sosa.
They can only passively fight, stationed in the nearby main city, and wait for church reinforcements.
For a time, Sousa was left alone.
There is even room for a ride on Catherine's Hail the Queen, which is located in the remote eastern region of Mrak.
If the NPC forces don't take action, the players can't do anything either.
With the current player's combat power, it's okay to follow the NPC forces to fight against Qiu Feng. But isn't it just asking for death to be the main force in attacking Sosa's city?
Any NPC hero can hang up players and hit them.
Therefore, players who took on the main mission of counterinsurgency could only continue to perform logistical tasks similar to hard work in the city.
Such as cleaning city gates, digging trenches, etc.
The reward is low and it takes a lot of time.
Among so many players, there are some guild players that stand out.
"Are there any more shells? The trebuchets are all empty."
"I'm coming!"
Outside Dongzheng City, an extremely interesting scene occurred.
A large number of players pushed a dozen extremely crude simple catapults that seemed to break at the touch of a touch, throwing ammunition one after another towards the Eastern March City.
Logically speaking, as long as the player has this level of strength, a master-level hero from Dongzheng City can take care of the player.
However, neither the heroes nor the soldiers in Dongzheng City were indifferent to the players' siege behavior.
He even looked at them with eager eyes.
"Whoosh!"
A cannonball landed on the city wall and rolled twice.
Two Crusader NPCs immediately came up and opened the cannonball.
The hollow cannonballs are not filled with gunpowder, but bags of supplies!
Food, clothing, daily necessities, and tools needed to build a house.
They are all the materials most needed by Dongzheng City, which has accepted a large number of refugees.
Most of this food is potatoes, and a small part is food collected from players by the World Hegemony Guild.
Along with the food delivered to the city, there was also a note from the World Hegemony Guild's appendix.
"War has no mercy"
"Timely Rain Chamber of Commerce Support Materials"
"We will never forget your contribution to mankind"
The Crusader held up the note with some emotion, and a dull voice sounded in the armor: "What batch of supplies is this?"
"The twelfth batch."
"On the first day they only had one catapult, but in the past two days there have been more and more."
"They are all our brothers. Her Majesty the Queen and Lord Sousa will never walk alone."
The simple catapult made by the logistics player has very poor combat effectiveness. When it hits the wall made of white stone in Dongzheng City, it cannot even do any damage, but it perfectly fulfills the task of transporting supplies.
Even before Qige came, the reputation of Jiyu Merchant Guild was already known to everyone in Dongzheng City.
As the catapult made a "crunching" sound and looked like it was about to fall apart at any time, players who were professional war machine builders quickly began to repair it.
Soon, Dongzheng City's counterattack began.
The crossbow arrows of the ballista are hung with heavy packages and shoot near the open space of the player's position.
After the shooting was completed, the players quickly stepped forward to recover the shell casings used for camouflage, as well as the worn-out armor and broken swords provided by Dongzheng City.
Some of these worn-out armors were still stained with solidified blood. They were from Sousa's soldiers, and some were from soldiers who had died in previous sieges.
They are all standard armors of human forces, and no one can tell which side they are from.
These armors will be used by the players of the Timely Rain Merchant Guild in exchange for war merits and used to exchange for more supplies and merits.
Merit can be exchanged for players to recruit quotas for heroic soul units.
In the main line of "Counterinsurgency Souza", players' heroic soul units can be exchanged with NPCs using merit points.
As long as there are enough recruitment quotas in the main city, players can continue to recruit new heroic soul units.
This is currently the best way for players to quickly acquire troops.
There is one last cannonball.
The master hero Nathaniel, who was responsible for guarding the Eastern March City, waited quietly.
Soon, a catapult that had barely been repaired fired the cannonballs.
The cannonballs were quickly delivered to Nathaniel.
He quickly opened it to check.
"Jihad Intelligence"
(The support from the angel tribe on the middle line has arrived. Queen Catherine launched a counterattack in the morning, and the middle line has recaptured Aromatherapy Lake.
Christian Legend on the Western Front has left and is returning to the Central Front.
The Legend of Talis cooperated with the angel tribe's reinforcements to severely damage the Legend of Hell Ignatis, but was then attacked by Maris and was almost killed.
There was a conflict between Ogatavia and Zeda on the Eastern Front, and both Zeda and Ogatavia suffered losses.
