Chapter 167 Ballista Heavy Cannon

The ferocious beasts directly airborne in the city triggered a large-scale riot. Not only were the undead soldiers in the city exhausted from defense, but the soldiers on the city walls were also attracted by attention, one by one, was feeling uncomfortable and anxious.

What is the most important thing in war? It’s behind you!

Why is the more complete the system, the higher the combat efficiency of the army? Because the soldiers knew that they only needed to deal with the enemies in front and were guarded by comrades behind their backs.

Hungry? It's okay, the kitchen team will bring you food.

Tired? It's okay. After this wave, my brothers will rotate with you.

Injured? It's okay, you'll be carried to the battlefield hospital in the rear, inject a morphine, and then go to bed with peace of mind.

Dead? It's terrible, but at least your family will get a generous pension and you'll be a national hero.

For soldiers, it is very important to have a huge war system behind you, giving you a sense of security, and only by supporting high morale.

But at this time, for the undead soldiers stationed at the city wall, their backs were weak and their sense of security was seriously lacking. They didn't know if they would suddenly jump out of their backs and tear them apart and eat them. This sense of crisis greatly distracted the attention and made the whole morale very low.

Chu Fan knew that it was impossible to reverse morale by relying on laws at this time. It was necessary to relieve the soldiers' sense of crisis! He immediately took out the communicator and lowered his voice and said, "General! Please clear the ferocious beasts in the city yourself! The movement is greater! As big as possible!"

Soon, the scream of a blood-sucking ghost came from the Chang'an city tower. Luo You, in the form of a bloodborne, tore through the sky, and the bloody wings covered half of the sky, covering Chang'an like a giant shadow.

"Ah!!! Look up! It's the general! The general is on the battlefield in person!" Chu Fan pretended to be shocked, and ecstatically conveyed the news of Luo You coming to the battle in the communicator. He also grabbed several nearby officers and shook their shoulders with a storm.

The news of Luo You's battle spreading like a tsunami. The soldiers raised their heads one after another and watched the blood wings tear through the sky. The ferocious beasts in the city felt the crisis from the sky, pressing against the ground one by one, irritably grasping the floor with their claws, making uneasy roars, and the hunters seemed to have become prey at this moment.

Chu Fan snatched the communicator from the commander's hand and connected it with the amplified broadcasts in various towers. The sound of madness spreads wildly in the city: "All the beasts that dare to invade Chang'an will be destroyed by the general! These monsters will regret being enemies with us! They will be as uneasy as trembling straws, and will be killed by the general in fear and despair, and die like dogs! The undead army!!! Ready to face the enemy!!!"

Luo You's personal visit to the battlefield was a reassurance for the Immortal Army, and Chu Fan's crazy roar was a heart-boosting agent. At this moment, the long-lost sense of security finally returned to the hearts of the soldiers. Although they were still afraid, they knew that the group of ferocious beasts that invaded Chang'an behind them were even more scared. As Chu Fan said, in front of the general, these ferocious beasts would die like dogs!

When Luo You massacred the ferocious beasts in the city, the undead army on the city walls also completely entered a state of war. Everyone could hear the ground trembling and the army was approaching!

"Boom boom boom!" A deafening sound came. Under the sound waves, the viscous air condensed into water waves, and a devastating air flow came to the face. The commanders on the front line were experienced and judged that this might be some kind of shelling, and immediately called the soldiers to lie down and look for cover.

However, unexpectedly, the imagined shelling did not hit, but there were loud roars coming from the city wall below, as if something had hit under the city wall.

The bold officer poked his head out and saw an extremely shocking scene.

Thousands of giant crossbow arrows attacked from the fog and bombarded the Chang'an city walls in densely. These crossbow arrows were extremely large, with a diameter of more than half a meter, and were poured out of refined metal. At first glance, they were fired from the crossbow guns. The huge arrows sank into the Chang'an city walls, like a beast's sharp teeth falling into flesh.

At this time, the officer seemed to notice something and said with a pale face: "There is a detonation device on the crossbow arrow!"

"Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom..." One after another, the explosions caused a hot air wave like magma. The crossbow arrows shot into the Chang'an city wall exploded one after another. The continuous flames were like a dancing fire dragon, raging wildly on the Chang'an city wall.

Fortunately, the Chang'an city walls are very majestic, and the heat waves and flames are rapidly decaying in the air. When they finally hit the city, they have no power. Only dozens of soldiers were burned, and they are not serious. They can continue fighting with a few breaths.

However, for the Cross Church, their purpose of firing blasting crossbow arrows was not to kill people.

The crossbow arrows that penetrated the Chang'an city wall were all connected with iron chains. At first, the iron chains were still hanging loosely, but as the roar of groups of ferocious beasts, thousands of iron chains began to tighten, and the terrifying huge force was torn and spread to the Chang'an city walls through the crossbow arrows.

"Boom!" Because it was blasted loosely before, coupled with the huge force from the iron chain, the city body of the Chang'an city wall collapsed at a speed visible to the naked eye. Large areas of steel bar material collapsed with the pulling of the crossbow arrow, causing a landslide torrent. The wall below was torn off by nearly half a meter thick!

Chu Fan was shocked. For the majestic Chang'an city wall, half a meter thick stripping was nothing. However, the ant hole in a thousand-mile long dike was broken, half a meter at a time, five meters ten times, and fifty meters one hundred times! What city wall in the world can endure this ravage?!

Sure enough, after the crossbow arrow was drawn out, the second round of crossbow guns continued to attack, and the crossbow arrows poured into the Chang'an city wall, exploded, pulled the iron cable, tearing off a large piece of wall, and recycled it, and this was repeated.

Soon, the Immortal Army responded, and the fortress's heavy artillery was fully opened and bombed in the direction where the crossbow cannon was located. This did achieve some results. It was obvious that the number of crossbow arrows in attack became smaller. It was obviously the crossbow cannon was smashed, but due to the fog, the efficiency of this kind of shelling was very low. Moreover, the Cross Church quickly launched a new crossbow, followed by another round of arrow rain.

Chu Fan knew that this kind of shooting tactic was definitely a loss to Chang'an. 600,000 troops were fighting against 35 million troops. The city wall was the only advantage of the Immortal Army. Once the city wall was destroyed, it evolved into close combat, and the Immortal Army would definitely not be able to withstand it.

Bombing the crossbow is a "stop loss" practice, but no matter how you stop, it only slows down the speed of the city wall being bombed down. To truly solve the crisis, if the stop loss is not enough, the city wall must be strengthened, that is, "repairing"...
