Just a second later, a large number of drow warriors holding muskets quickly raised their arms and lined up waiting for the firing order.

As out-and-out pragmatists, these black-skinned elves are not like their surface relatives who have an inexplicable obsession with bows and arrows. They believe that muskets are a crude weapon and are not elegant at all, so they refuse to use them.

Quite the opposite!

They are very fond of this long-range weapon that can be suddenly pulled out for a sneak attack after being loaded.

It's almost done to the extent that at least two people have it.

Some crazy guys will even be equipped with more than ten short guns, fixed on any place on the body that can be quickly drawn out.

In this way, multiple attacks can be completed against multiple enemies in just a few seconds.

Soon, when the first batch of cannon fodder goblins were driven towards the city gate and the wall, the muskets immediately erupted with a loud roar.

Bang bang bang bang bang——

The red firelight mixed with white smoke formed a shocking picture.

Since these firearms and bullets use "smoking gunpowder" invented by the god of craftsman Gond, burning will inevitably produce a large amount of smoke, which chokes many dark elves and begins to cough uncontrollably.

There is no other way, who told me that this is currently the only gunpowder that can be used on a large scale in Faerûn.

The other type is gunpowder extracted from mineral vein stones in the universe where Azeroth is located.

However, due to its greater power, the second type is temporarily only available to the elite troops of the West Coast Empire.

As the muskets began to fire, the ordinary goblins who were driven towards the city wall began to fall in pieces. Some of them even had no armor on them and were directly pierced two or even three times by the powerful lead-tipped bullets.

Although according to the plan of the orcs and the hobgoblins, they want to rely on their overwhelming numerical advantage to let the ordinary goblins swarm up the city wall first, so that they can avoid being shot by long-range weapons if they follow.

But the problem is that they obviously underestimated the power of the firearms after countless improvements.

To be precise, the muskets used by believers like Eilistraee are no longer the primitive and ancient front-loading muskets, but are close to the bolt-action rifles or shotguns used in World War I and World War II. The pistols are simple

Reliable revolver.

After all, these firearm design drawings are ready-made. Zuo Si only needs to provide them to the inventors of the Gond Church, and he will naturally get the corresponding finished products quickly.

This also means that as long as there are enough soldiers using firearms to form a cross-fire network, the number of casualties the enemy will have to pay if they want to rush forward and start climbing the city wall is definitely a very terrifying number.

The Battle of the Somme is the most typical example of this.

However, since the believers of Eilistraee did not have large-scale weapons or artillery such as heavy machine guns, after suffering more than two thousand casualties, a small number of goblins finally managed to enter the blind spot.

It's not that the empire doesn't have such weapons, it's that their economic capabilities simply can't afford such a costly thing.

"Be careful! Those goblins are climbing up from the right!"

"Pour the oil on fire quickly! Burn them to death!"

"We must not let these guys come up!"

…

Accompanied by the shouts, curses and roars of the dark elf defenders, dozens of drow immediately ran over from behind carrying heavy barrels and threw them directly from the city walls and gates.

At first, the goblins thought these were ordinary tools for defending the city, such as rolling logs and stones, so after successfully dodging them, they laughed at their opponents for not being able to throw anything accurately.

But just a second later, they realized how wrong they were.

I saw a few small bottles filled with hot glue being thrown down from the top, and smashed into pieces with a snap.

Then the fire that shot up into the sky suddenly turned a large area under the city wall into a horrific purgatory.

Because the wooden barrel will break during the fall, a large amount of flammable grease has already been scattered everywhere, so when it encounters the hot glue, it will immediately burn violently, and even cause a violent explosion.

The explosion sprayed fire oil onto the city wall, burning the goblins until they howled in pain.

After a while, the fragrant smell of barbecue reached the noses of everyone around.

The horrifying sight frightened the orc chiefs who had come from other parts of the Faerun continent and were dumbfounded. They immediately asked the drow leaders beside them: "What on earth is going on? Why do the enemies have so many terrible weapons?"

?”

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "It was provided to this group of traitors by the West Coast Empire.

But don't be afraid. Although these weapons are powerful, they consume a lot of logistics.

Once used frequently, it will break down very quickly.

As long as they continue to attack fiercely, they won't be able to hold out for long."

The drow leader pretended to be relaxed and comforted.

However, from the flash of insidiousness and cunning in his eyes, it is not difficult to see that he is completely deceiving the other person to die.

Because the believers of Rose have long understood the reality of the underground city in front of them.

Especially the most threatening firearms, ammunition and grease quantities.

So in the plan of the spider goddess Rose, the purpose of these orcs and goblins is to exchange their lives for bullets and kerosene.

"Send all the goblins up immediately!"

The orc chief turned to the hobgoblin warlord and made a request.

But the latter sneered and questioned: "Why? Even if these guys don't have much combat effectiveness, they are still my men. Unless you also send people to join them, I refuse to send more cannon fodder to die."

Obviously, orcs and goblins are not of the same mind.

After all, their gods have been hostile for a long time, and there is fierce competition for the same ecological niche in the wilderness.

Relatively speaking, the evil and lawful hobgoblins are far more powerful than the chaotic orcs.

Given the same number, the former can often crush the latter by virtue of organization and discipline.

Therefore, the hobgoblins look down on the orcs at all, thinking that they are basically a bunch of rabble.

"Okay! Then I will send two thousand orc warriors to follow your goblins. You should be satisfied with this, right?"

After staring at that fierce one eye for a long time, the orc chief finally made a compromise.

Because being able to climb to this position means that he has insidiousness and cunning that ordinary orcs do not have, and he knows when to be strong and when to give in.

You must know that this joint operation comes from the highest oracle of Gruumsh. If anyone dares to cause damage, he may be killed and replaced by his deputy or other orcs in minutes.

This situation has happened frequently among many orc tribes that have not responded positively.

As an orc who prides himself on being smart, he doesn't want to be one of them.

The hobgoblin warlord nodded with satisfaction: "Very good! This is what cooperation should look like.

But the addition of orcs alone is not enough.

It also requires the cooperation of the divine arts and magic of the dark elves.

Especially [Protect Arrows], [Reverse Arrows], [Resist Energy Damage], [Protect Energy Damage].

With these spells, our warriors can ignore all fire damage and long-range attacks, rush directly to the city wall to fight hand-to-hand, and give full play to their numerical advantage.

And once the city wall enters the melee, those spider drow can take the opportunity to jump into the city and cause chaos.

When the time comes when the inside and outside cooperate to capture the city gate, it won’t take long for the city to be completely destroyed.”

It has to be said that in terms of tactical literacy, the lawful evil hobgoblins are obviously much better than the chaotic orcs and dark elves. The weaknesses of the combination of firearms and kerosene can be seen at a glance.

You must know that Faerûn is a world filled with supernatural powers.

Once magic is added, many seemingly indestructible fortresses and cities will immediately become full of vulnerabilities.

You think you can use advanced guns and cannons to crush a group of primitive people who are still stuck in the cold weapon age, but in fact, as soon as they add arcane and divine magic, they can immediately rush in with a dense firepower network and kill them.

.

In particular, once the three-ring protection spell [Reverse Arrow] is activated, as long as it is hit by a long-range weapon, it will immediately bounce back to the shooter.

"No problem! Our mages and priests are more than happy to provide this assistance."

The drow leader raised the corners of his mouth to reveal a cruel and bloodthirsty smile.

When the grease under the city wall burned out and the flames were completely extinguished, the second group of organized troops immediately launched a charge.

As before, the ones being driven to the front were still ordinary goblins.

But the difference is that there are a considerable number of orcs mixed in.

They wear sturdy armor provided by the drow and carry sophisticated weapons, and some even have enchantment levels of 1, 2 or even 3.

Of course, these equipment are not visible to the light and can only be used in the dark underground world.

"Concentrate your firepower! Hit those orcs first!"

The believers of Eilistraee obviously knew who was the real threat, and they turned their guns and fired at the strong orcs first.

But after this round of shooting, many orcs did fall down, but they themselves were also killed by the bullets bounced back by the [Reverse Arrow] protection, and this number of people were injured and lost the ability to move.

Several times.

"Ah!!!!!! Damn! These guys are blessed with protective magic!"

"I have broken my leg!"

"Pastor! We need treatment here! His intestines are leaking out!"
