Bab 696: Taurens

"Adjust your angles! Aim for the tower in front of you. I want five sets of consecutive shots, men!"

Everyone in the catapult team began to adjust the angle of the catapults they were handling. They were all professionals at this. They did practice every day, making them more flexible at controlling the catapults than their own bodies.

In just thirty seconds in total, all sixty catapults were reloaded and ready for another round. They were using the same type of ammunition as before, large round stones of 50 centimeters in diameter. As these deadly stones drew an arc in the sky, they fell on the stone platform they were meant to target.

Some went straight towards the platform. Some went towards an empty spot and then rolled towards the slope placed behind the stone platforms. The shielded taurens didn't take a single step back. They only screamed in fury as they tried to block the incoming hits.
