The French cannons turned their angles in the direction of the target. Their uniform movements were like well-trained soldiers. The sonorous sound of the cannonballs being loaded was like the sound of soldiers fixing their bayonets and preparing to charge.
The officers who had previously ridiculed their commanders for their incompetence in commanding the army all had a bad feeling at this time. A chilling atmosphere enveloped the entire military camp.
It seems that something terrible is about to happen. Although the soul masters do not have the ability to predict the future, they have a strong intuition about danger. At this time, the huge barrels that are moving one by one bring them extreme danger.
Feel.
It seems that there is some extremely terrifying power brewing in this tube. As long as it is released, it will destroy the world.
Turning his attention to the Hongchen Fortress, the imperial army was attacking. Yue Hongchen naturally knew it clearly, but standing on the top of the city, he did not panic at all.
"My carved tower is impregnable! A mere 50,000 troops want to break through my defenses. It's really an idiot's dream. When the sun and moon coalition forces are completed, I will open the city gate. If the three parties join forces, they will definitely kill you.
Stay. The great rivers and mountains of the Holy Dragon Empire are already in my possession. A bunch of dogs are left to live in ruins. Today, let me see your final madness."
Yue Hongchen was standing at the top of the city, high-spirited, looking at the military camp which was still a small black dot in the distance. The rising smoke showed that the enemy troops were stationed there, but choosing to station them at such a distance was not the behavior of a wise commander.
The right choice.
"Are you afraid? Hahaha! Sure enough, even the commander-in-chief of the army knows very well that with the few troops he has, there is nothing he can do against my fortress." Yue Hongchen looked up to the sky and laughed, and then saw a series of flashes suddenly flashing in the distance.
A row of bright lights, this scene is very sudden, as if someone suddenly flashed a flashlight in the distance.
"What are you doing? Are you setting off fireworks? You are bluffing! You think this can scare me? You are underestimating my more than ten years of experience in the battlefield!"
…
At the same time, in the military camp, a violent explosion sounded. Even if they were not hit by artillery shells, everyone around the heavy artillery could feel the powerful shock wave. Those who were closer were directly suppressed by the loud noise for a short time.
Lost hearing.
Everyone in the military camp fell on their backs, thinking that they had been attacked. The reaction force of the salvo of heavy artillery hit the ground hard, like an earthquake. If there was any attack that could cause such a strong shock, it probably would have taken several titled Douluo working together to strike it.
It has this power.
Heavy artillery shells weighing more than 500 kilograms soared into the sky, drawing graceful arcs in the sky. After flying for less than a minute, they fell towards the Red Dust Fortress.
At this distance, it is unrealistic for the cannonballs to hit people. After all, these cannonballs will not turn in mid-air. There is no need for a titled Douluo. As long as you have the strength of a soul saint, you will have the ability to hit someone after you realize that you have been targeted.
Escape from the explosion range before the explosion occurs.
But Hongchen Fortress is a solid defensive fortress. He cannot dodge like a human. If he is targeted by heavy artillery, he can only carry it hard.
At most, the defensive buildings in this era were masonry structures with soul beast materials and soul power enhancements. Facing this kind of giant cannon, which was considered a super weapon during World War II, they were as vulnerable as tofu.
…
On the wall of Hongchen Fortress, Yue Hongchen could already feel that something was wrong. Several light spots in the sky were flying towards him at high speed. As they got closer, Yue Hongchen could already hear a sharp cry.
, that is the sound made by the high-speed friction between the cannonball and the air.
Usually only people at the impact point of the cannon can hear it so clearly. Although Yue Hongchen doesn't understand this, his own Contra cultivation makes him sensitive to danger. These things are directed at him, and they are very dangerous.
May have great power.
Just now he had confidently concluded that his opponent was bluffing, but at this moment he conveniently and without hesitation overturned his own judgment. It was too late to care about whether he would be slapped in the face or not. At this time, it was definitely important to escape, so he saw him rising into the air and heading toward him.
Flying into the distance, he flew directly towards the west, away from the direction of the fortress. Time was tight, and he didn't even have time to care about his men and troops.
On the city wall, Duke Hongchen's private soldiers did not have such a keen intuition as him. Although they also saw the light spots flying from the sky, they only regarded them as fireworks and continued to point and laugh at the incompetence of the Holy Dragon Empire's army. Here,
There is absolutely nothing you can do in front of a solid city wall.
However, reality will not change with the will of an individual. The cannonballs will eventually fall. The ridicule and disdain of these people cannot change anything at all, nor can they change their tragic fate.
The shells were getting closer and closer, and the sharp screams were getting louder and louder. Almost everyone could clearly hear the terrible sound. Finally, someone came over. Something was wrong, but by this time it was too late to do anything. 30 shells covered it.
Break down the city wall.
Hongchen is going to be built on the mountain, at the Kaibol Mountain Pass, straddling the mountain passes, like a dam connecting two peaks, standing tall and majestic, almost a wonder in this world.
However, an even more terrifying power has fallen on this spectacle, and a devastating explosion unfolded. Brilliant explosive fireworks bloomed on the city wall. What is the concept of a half-ton high-explosive bomb falling?
Only those who have truly experienced it on the battlefield can feel it.
The city wall that was originally considered indestructible was directly penetrated by cannonballs with thick metal shells. The cannonballs that hit the inside of the city wall exploded directly on the inside of the city wall.
The entire city wall seemed to be pushed up by something, and it suddenly protruded upward, and then sprayed out a large amount of rubble and flames. After the impact of the explosion gradually dissipated, the city wall that was pushed up high was smashed down hard.
A section of nearly fifty meters of city wall collapsed completely, and all the soldiers on the wall were buried in the collapsed rubble.
These were just the cannonballs that landed on the city wall. The cannonballs that landed on the crowd above the city wall were even more terrifying. The shock wave of the explosion spread directly for hundreds of meters without delay, destroying all flesh and blood within the explosion range.
Four pieces.
The fortress was rendered into a sea of steel and flames. The storm of death was harvesting crazily among the crowd. Piles of carbohydrates, under the baptism of iron and fire, lost the ability to think and turned into pieces of meat. Looking back at the world of mortals
Seeing this scene, the blood in my whole body turned half cold.
"It's over! It's over!" Regardless of whether the opponent has the ability to launch the same attack a second time, his soldiers are completely finished. Perhaps most of his masters can escape and survive the explosion, but those
Ordinary soldiers are absolutely dead. Mortal flesh and blood are as fragile as paper in such a steel storm.
Regardless of how much attention is paid to soul masters on the mainland, wars still rely on the army of ordinary people. On the frontal battlefield, soul masters can lead the charge and defeat the opponent's army with a small number of soldiers. But after the battle is won, it is necessary to
There are no soldiers to occupy and manage the captured areas, so it is impossible to rely on soul masters alone to do these things. Moreover, no one would do such extravagant things by using soul masters to consume the enemy's ordinary soldiers.
Perhaps there were only a few thousand casualties among ordinary soldiers in this attack, but in the face of such a blow from the horizon, the morale of his men had definitely reached a low point. It would be even more difficult to drive them out to fight.
Disaster.
Yue Hongchen gritted his teeth. Now was his last chance. The city wall on the side of the Holy Dragon Empire was severely bombed, but most of the soldiers stationed inside the fortress didn't know what happened. If there was no backbone at this time,
If they continue to face this kind of bombing, their courage will definitely be knocked away bit by bit, and they will eventually become like cowards waiting to die.
The best way now is to take advantage of these people's ignorance, lead them to attack, and fight head-on with the Holy Dragon Empire's army.
It is impossible for such a terrifying explosive attack to hit one's own people. When the time comes, we urgently seek help from the Sun and Moon Allied Forces, and we may be able to win this war. Although in this case, our own troops must serve as the main force to attract the Holy Dragon Empire's absolute
Most of the firepower, but as long as the war can be won, one's own main force can still retain a considerable part of the combatable division, which is better than being wiped out in the subsequent artillery fire.
So Yue Hongchen suppressed his fear and flew back to his fortress. At this time, there was chaos in the city. The soldiers in the military camp looked at the city wall that was blown into ruins in panic. At this time, they needed a backbone.
Yue Hongchen immediately stood up, suspended in the air, took a deep breath, and used his powerful soul power to transmit the sound to the ears of every soldier.
"Don't panic! As long as I am here, such an attack will not fall on you!" Although he was bragging, the first sentence of the opening sentence stabilized the momentum and shocked the morale of the army. Yue Hongchen was somewhat capable of commanding an army.
Experienced, seeing the army calm down, they immediately began to incite.
"I don't understand why the empire suddenly attacked its loyal fortress, and I don't want to have any conflict with the empire's army, but the cruel reality tells me that the empire has abandoned us and is not even willing to let us live in a humble way.
.
Have you seen it? Have you seen that hell of ruined walls, flames and thick smoke? The empire used the most brutal attacks to bury thousands of our Paoze brothers, and they want to use more such attacks to bury every one of us.
.
I don’t want to betray. Each of us is loyal to the empire, but the empire has already betrayed us! We just need to live, we just want to find out, we just want to let the murderer pay for the death of thousands of Paoze brothers.
Pay the price.
Brothers! That’s why I went out to fight. We want to seek justice from the empire and ask them why the soldiers who loyally defended the country and guarded the border ended up like this!"
An impassioned speech immediately made the soldiers angry. Fear quickly turned into anger. With high morale, they formed a neat queue and rushed out of the fortress under the leadership of the soul master.
Yue Hongchen was also helpless. He did not want to use this excuse to encourage the soldiers to fight, but ordinary soldiers did not understand what glory was, let alone fight for the glory of the nobles. If he wanted to boost their morale, he could do
The only thing he could do was stimulate them with things that they could personally experience. In a short period of time, he could only think of the rhetoric at hand.
However, I have to say that just by thinking about this from the perspective of a soldier, Yue Hongchen is worthy of being a battlefield veteran on this continent. If it is the same army and the same level of equipment, Lan Nuo may not necessarily be the same.
The opponent's opponent.
The mighty army broke out of the fortress, formed a neat formation, and marched at high speed in the direction of the artillery position.
The messenger has already informed the Sun and Moon Allied Forces that the war is about to begin. If you don't want to watch the Holy Dragon Empire destroy him, the border duke, and reoccupy the Red Dust Fortress, you should immediately send troops to participate in this great battle on the plains.
At the same time, the Holy Dragon Empire had eliminated the soul saint-level scouts who could fly and headed to the direction of the Red Dust Fortress to investigate the attack.
Although he did not see the horrific explosion, the sight of a city wall almost reduced to rubble deeply shocked this man.
Even a titled Douluo may not be able to accomplish such an attack. He destroyed a city wall with one strike. This is probably a strength that only the legendary Super Douluo or even stronger beings can possess.
However, not long after seeing the damaged city wall, there was a large army in the fortress that cleared away the rubble in the city wall and marched towards the outside of the city at high speed. It looked like they were going to fight a big battle on the plains.
The Soul Saint observed in the air for a moment, then did not dare to stay any longer and returned immediately. There were also experts on the Hongchen Fortress side. The Duke of Hongchen himself had a Contra-level cultivation. If the Soul Saint dared to continue to stay in the air,
If he stays and observes, he will definitely be targeted by the enemy's masters. Under the siege of several masters, he will definitely be in danger.
After the top scouts flew back, they immediately reported to the officers. With the current situation in the Red Dust Fortress, all eyes turned to Lan Nuo. If they had dared to obey the orders of their commander before, they would have followed the orders of their commander.
, now we must consider the weight of the words of our General who conquered the West.
You must know that when you are fighting the enemy, the only thing behind you is your general's heavy artillery. If you offend someone, and an indiscriminate attack covers both sides of the war during the battle, then they may become what they are on paper.
losses for victory.
Seeing everyone looking at him, Lan Nuo cleared his throat: "You guys try your best to block the protective artillery position. I will harass the enemy with long-range attacks as much as possible to prevent them from threatening the position. The enemy is just a temporary casualty."
Brave, after experiencing the death of your companions several times, you will no longer have the heart to retreat."
