"It's really, spectacularly" More than three hundred miles apart, Lin Qi and Arthur sighed at the same time.
Lin Qi watched with his own eyes as the tide-like abyssal creatures surrounded his small city, the surging black torrent wriggling and tumbling on the ground, and those who were a little less courageous had been scared to death by this huge army.
Arthur, on the other hand, watched this spectacular scene through the magic light mirror, the area of the fourth abyss was extremely vast, more than a hundred times larger than the fifth abyss on the next level.
Although the demons and demons of the Fourth Abyss are much weaker than those demons and demons of the Fifth and Sixth Abyss, and there are no demigod-level existences in the Fourth Abyss, their number is too huge.
When the number reaches a certain level, the slight gap in strength is nothing.
Looking at the crowd of people crowded together within a radius of 100 miles, everyone had a feeling of scalp tingling.
How many abyssal creatures are here, fifteen million or ten million or more?
Moreover, the creatures of the abyss that appear here are mainly slave troops such as cave people and gnomes, and their size is petite, their average height is about two feet, which makes them denser, and the total number is even more surprisingly large.
No camp was built, no tents were built, no siege equipment was prepared, accompanied by the high-pitched horn sound of beast bones, teams of cave people, gnomes, black goblins and other cannon fodder soldiers, mixed with a very small number of ogres, wolf goblins, half-orcs and other slightly stronger troops, the mighty team rushed out of the crowd and attacked Lin Qi's city from four directions.
Lin Qi did not send his elite soldiers, he only sent those soldiers from Arthur's Recruit Regiment who followed him to the city wall.
The walls were ten miles long and wide, and thousands of new soldiers armed with spears were arranged on each side of the wall, which was enough to lay a complete line of defense on the wall.
There were no ladders, no towers, no siege engines, and the creatures of the abyss walked numbly and stiffly.
Striding forward like the walking dead.
They poured under the walls and climbed each other to form a human ladder.
Densely clinging to the city wall, they climbed up to the city like ants.
Lin Qi did not give the order to release the arrows, let alone let those magicians release their magic.
Face the cannon fodder class of this abyssal creature with a bow and arrows and magic.
In a way that is inhumane but very much in line with the laws of economics.
This is something where the costs far outweigh the benefits.
According to the calculations of some sages in the surface world, the cost of a good feather arrow is about three silver coins, and the cost of giving birth to a litter and breeding seven or eight heirs for those cave people is close to zero.
Even if a single feather arrow can kill three cavemen, no valuable materials can be recovered from them, three silver coins are a pure cost investment, and the profit from recycling is zero.
With Lin Qi's character, how could he spend a huge amount of money here Not to mention, this siege battle was a script planned by him and those lords The creatures of the abyss struggled to swing their short legs and arms.
Embarrassed, they climbed to a height of less than a meter from the city.
The soldiers of the Recruit Legion raised their spears at the command of the mercenaries of the Longshan family.
It was a flurry of knocking against these slave soldiers.
Dense slave soldiers clinged to the city wall, and with a random sweep of their spears, seven or eight slave soldiers could be swept off the city wall.
These cavemen and gnomes were small in stature and pitifully weak, and a random young strong man could easily defeat three or five of these slave soldiers in a head-to-head battle if he mustered up the courage.
Not to mention that they now use the power of city defense to condescendingly attack these diminutive guys, which has a great advantage.
Huge piles of cavemen and gnomes who could easily climb to the top of the wall were swept down by the barrels of their guns, and the city walls were densely packed with slave soldiers.
They were like a thick blanket of meat, steadily catching the siege soldiers falling from the sky.
Because there is a companion below to make the meat pad.
Very few of the slave soldiers who fell fell to their deaths, most of them fainted, smashing their unlucky companions below them unconscious, but there were few other casualties.
It was a spectacle to see a large number of slave soldiers falling, a large group of slave soldiers being stunned, and a siege of cavemen and gnomes flying around the city.
None of the slave soldiers actually climbed the walls, and they were swept away by the guns when they were still the last steps from the city.
Lin Qi looked coldly at the siege army that was extremely large in number, but extremely weak in combat effectiveness, and then lazily gave an order: "Tell those lords outside the city that this siege intensity will be maintained in the past few days."
Well, they are attacking the city day and night, making the appearance of attacking fiercely.
By the way, tell them that they should build a little bit of siege equipment, and they should also act decently."
Bilibili spread her hands, sighed helplessly, and then escaped into the darkness.
Even Bilibili, a little half-blood demon, can't stand it anymore, those unlucky siege slave soldiers, their combat effectiveness is really blushing.
As Lin Qi said, those lords outside the city, even if you are acting, you must act decently Time slipped by, hour after hour, hour after hour After receiving Lin Qi's warning, the demon lords outside the city finally showed a little strength and a little capital when they were attacking the city.
Hundreds of strange-looking ladders were carried out by those slave soldiers, dozens of crude siege engines also rumbled towards the city wall, and there were even demon mages who raised dozens of rock arrow towers less than a mile away from the city wall, and a group of kobold archers squatted on the arrow towers, releasing cold arrows at the city head.
The ladders erected the city walls, the siege vehicles rumbled and rumbled against the rocky walls, and the cold arrows on the arrow towers posed a great threat to the recruits on the city.
This siege battle mastered by Lin Qi finally had a bit of a taste of regular warfare.
Recruits began to be wounded by cold arrows on the city, and a pungent smell of blood began to emanate from the city.
The atmosphere of the battlefield became more and more intense, and those recruits gradually threw themselves into this increasingly hot battle.

Lin Qi controlled a degree very well, he divided the tens of thousands of recruits who followed him into more than a dozen waves, and whenever a wave of recruits suffered casualties and morale began to decline, he immediately replaced them and constantly let them accept the influence of battle.
According to Lin Qi's plan, in such a high-intensity siege battle, as long as a few days of hard work, experienced strong mental pressure and combat intensity training, these recruits will grow into barely qualified soldiers.
Then let them go through the test of several major wars, and they will have the foundation to become elite soldiers.
When the time comes, using this group of elite soldiers as an example, it will not be difficult for Lin Qi to poach more recruits from Arthur's men for his own use.
The shouts of killing shook the sky, and the city walls were gradually covered with blood.
No one noticed, but in fact the losses on both sides were not large, and the actual number of soldiers killed in the battle was probably less than 500.
But the blood on the city's head was dripping, and the viscous blood slurry covered the walls with a thick layer.
Often, some of the best demon warriors stormed the walls and were driven down by large crowds of soldiers.
When these demon warriors jumped off the walls, they would always spew out large mouthfuls of blood, and the amount of blood they spewed was several times the amount of blood in a person's body.
Relying on these demon warriors to constantly spew blood, Lin Qi's city was gradually dyed blood, and a tragic scene of a great war was perfectly created.
The little devils set fire everywhere, the little demon hunters slashed and chopped everywhere, and the cave people dug caves in the ground indiscriminately, and the smoke and flames enveloped the entire city.
Inexplicable poisonous smoke and poisonous gas sprayed everywhere, and from time to time, cave people and dwarfs who fell to the ground in a coma were urgently escorted into the excavated caves.
The heralds of the Abyss Army were scurrying around, and all kinds of battle reports were reported so loudly that Arthur's scouts didn't need to spend much effort to accurately grasp the damage suffered by the creatures of the Abyss in this great battle.
On the first day, hundreds of thousands of cavemen and gnomes were killed in battle, and their bodies were transported back underground to be used as fertilizer.
The next day, millions of cavemen and other slave soldiers were killed, and thousands of ghost warriors were killed.
On the third day, more slave classes were killed, and tens of thousands of elite demon warriors were killed.
On the fourth, fifth, and sixth days, Lin Qi brazenly used those powerful city defense equipment, bed crossbows, trebuchets, magic repeaters and strong crossbows and other crazy sprays towards the abyssal creatures under the city walls, and the loss of the abyssal creatures in the past three days immediately reached an extremely alarming number, and the number of abyssal creatures under the city walls suddenly decreased by more than half.
And in the city, the tens of thousands of recruits who followed Lin Qi on the expedition also fell to the ground without strength, they were all injured a lot, and now on the top of the city, it was the dwarf warriors and monster knights brought by Lin Qi.
On the seventh day, several elite abyssal armies composed of demons, demons, orcs and other powerful troops marched to the city, and dozens of powerful demons and demon lords appeared in public, and they issued an ultimatum to Lin Qi, if he did not surrender, then he would be devastated.
Faced with the siege of the elite army of abyssal creatures, Lin Qi sent Arthur thirty-six of the most urgent magical distress letters in a row.
But Arthur always used the excuse that he was rearming for war and asked his great allies the Longshan family to support him for another three days, turning a blind eye to Lin Qi's distress letters.
Then the elite army of the Abyssal Creatures launched an attack on Lin Qi's castle.
In the first attack, they broke through the dwarves' resistance and almost stormed the city.
