Why don't you even know there are these things hidden underneath?
As a result, he squinted his eyes and suddenly had an inexplicable look on his face.
Not a trebuchet.
The trebuchet is bulky and bigger than this thing.
Also, the sound is wrong.
So what is this?
cannon?
Can you launch that kind of explosive?
Or……
Which kind of explosive can be used as dynamite?
However, Ye Chong soon discovered something was wrong.
There is no firelight.
There was no explosion.
There is only a huge discharge speed.
Spring cannon?
Ye Chong's eyes showed suspicion.
But soon a look of surprise appeared on his face.
"This is a high-pressure air cannon! It's awesome!"
Ye Chong had a lot on his mind, but in reality his thoughts were whirling rapidly in the blink of an eye.
The next moment, a loud noise was suddenly heard in the darkness two to three hundred meters ahead, one after another, one after another.
Accompanying it was the sound of beasts roaring like ghosts crying and wolves howling.
Ye Chong squinted and looked into the darkness in the distance, a smile slowly forming on the corner of his mouth.
Although he couldn't see clearly what happened there, he could tell from the mutant beast's reaction and the sound that the black balls must have exploded and caused fatal damage to the mutant beast.
"It should be a steel needle bomb." Lin Jie didn't know when he came to him, "I have heard of this kind of weapon, but I have never used it. I didn't expect that the Winter Garrison actually has this treasure."
"Steel needle bomb?" Ye Chong looked puzzled, "The military actually has such a thing? However, I don't seem to have seen the flames of the explosion."
"There is no need for firelight." Lin Jie continued, "To be precise, steel needle bombs are not a very new thing. Before the revival, various empires were widely using this weapon.
However, the steel needle bombs at that time still required chemical energy to drive, while the steel needle bombs after the recovery relied entirely on kinetic energy from launch to warhead.
hehe.
I really didn't expect it.
Its power is still so huge."
"Chemical energy? Kinetic energy?" Ye Chong couldn't help curling his lips, "Do you really think I haven't studied chemistry and physics?
Let me tell you, back then, I was a chemistry class representative and a physics class representative, do you believe it?"
"I believe it." Lin Jie grinned and took a step back, "I'm stupid anyway."
"Damn, you guy..." Ye Chong glared at the other person, "The answer is correct."
"Old Ye, you have never been in the military, so you may not be clear about some things." Lin Jie smiled, "Actually, before recovery, whether it is a missile, a bomb, or an artillery shell, there is a warhead on it.
This part is used to cause damage to the enemy.
Most warheads use chemical energy, while a small number of warheads that perform special warfare requirements use kinetic energy.
Objectively speaking, kinetic energy warheads cannot be compared with chemical energy warheads in terms of killing range and killing power.
However, after the recovery, due to the failure of chemical energy, military scientists, especially military industrialists, began to increase their efforts to study kinetic energy warheads, and the scene we just saw was their masterpiece."
"Okay, I probably understand it already." Ye Chong said with a smile, "However, I seem to want to know more about the effect of the steel needle bomb now, rather than how it works."
"Look." Lin Jie pointed forward into the darkness with his hand, "After dozens of steel needle bombs were fired, the first attack of the mutant beasts was repulsed. From this, we can also see the power of the steel needle bombs.
.”
Ye Chong nodded slightly, and a thick bloody smell floated over, but he did not see the mutant beast charging forward.
At this moment, a cheer came from the city wall where the warriors of Zhongdu were located, while the Winter garrison on the other side continued to remain motionless, without any sound being heard.
"Maybe...this is the gap?"
Ye Chong couldn't help but smile and shook his head.
It was at this moment that he was startled, and a feeling of extreme danger ran through his body.
As a result, he looked into the night sky and saw a group of dark shadows swooping down quickly.
Beast!
"The land beast's attack just now was just a feint. The real attack came from the sky. Mader is a beast!"
Whoa!
Ye Chong held the bow in his left hand and raised it upward, and with his right hand he drew the arrow and was about to shoot it.
Almost at the same time, not far behind the high-pressure air cannon, groups of black armor suddenly appeared.
The next moment, they all raised their arms upward and started firing crossbows into the air.
Whoosh!
Whizzing!
Whoosh whoosh!
Crossbow arrows loomed with red light and flew upward quickly, disappearing into the night sky without a trace.
at the same time.
Ga!
Gua!
Chirp!
…
The sounds of animals were heard.
At the same time, things continued to fall from the sky, and the smell of blood quickly spread in the night sky.
It’s just that there are too many beasts in the sky.
Moreover, they all rushed downwards without fear of death.
There is no doubt that the goal of these guys is up and down the North Gate city wall.
Ye Chong couldn't help but frown. Although the arrow did not shoot out, it remained ready to be fired at any time.
"Um?
It seems that the purpose of the air raid launched by the beasts is to occupy the north gate.
The defenders here, as well as the high-pressure air cannon units, are all their targets.
Think about it too.
Eliminate the effective forces of the human race, and at least make them stop launching destructive weapons such as steel needle bombs, so as to ensure that the mutant beasts outside the city can drive straight in from the north gate.
Once the North Gate is lost...
Winter is dangerous."
At this moment, the warriors in Zhongdu were also attacked by beasts and had already become a mess.
However, under the leadership of Lin Jie, a defensive formation was soon formed to resist the air attack with a ball formation.
The winter garrison on the other side of the city wall finally started to move, but it seemed unhurried.
Each person held a miniature assault crossbow in his hand, and was firing into the air in sequence and rhythmically.
At the same time, after being shot, the animal that has just approached will scream and fall to the ground.
It seems that the miniature crossbows used by these people are even more powerful than the large crossbows in the hands of black armor.
"What a fun fight.
It turns out that the two warring parties are plotting against each other.
At least one thing can be seen.
The winter garrison had obviously expected that the beasts would launch an air attack.
Otherwise, the black armor would not suddenly appear there, and the garrison on the city wall would not take out a pocket crossbow from his pocket.
Ha ha.
I always feel like the orcs have been fooled?"
Seeing the ferocious beasts swooping down and suffering a huge loss, Ye Chong was extremely happy and gained a further perspective on the winter garrison.
If the major cities of the human race were garrisoned by such brave and capable troops, how could they be afraid of an army of mutant beasts besieging the city?
As soon as Ye Chong smiled, chaos suddenly broke out on the city wall.
