Zhuge Feilong laughed, waved his hand, and walked out of the thick smoke behind him. Two tall and powerful wooden armored robots that were two feet tall. On the back of the crossbow, a wooden arm is dragged, and at the end of the wooden arm is a stone nest. There are stones the size of small pumpkins in the nest, and behind these machinemen, there is also a small cart. , with two baskets of stones, several bundles of arrows and broken spears placed on it, and three to five auxiliary sergeants standing beside the vehicle, obviously to provide these agency personnel with supplies and replacement of long-range strike weapons at any time.
What is different from ordinary wooden armored robots is that these robots are all covered in iron armor. The fine steel armor leaves are wrapped in wet cowhide, layer by layer, and they look like armor hanging on the outside of a tank. The composite armor they wear is the same, and there is more than one layer, which perfectly protects the chest cavity and other key positions of the dwarfs who operate the wooden armored robots, and the vulnerable lower body is simply made entirely of iron rods. , the bearing positions connecting these iron rods are covered with iron armor for sufficient protection.
These monsters, which are half wood and half iron, with fine steel armor on the outside, seem to be offensive and defensive, and are extremely powerful and terrifying war machines. They are more than twice as tall as these walking machines that are more than one person tall and are where Zhuge Feilong and others are. From this position, you can completely overlook the Jin Army's armored phalanx 150 steps away, and the crossbows, heavy arrows, etc. fired by it can penetrate the thick wooden shields of these Jin Army's shield formations at such a distance. , also causing fatal damage to the armored warriors inside!
Fellow Daoist Sangkun opened his mouth in surprise. This was the first time he had seen such an iron-armored machine monster. Although he had seen wooden-armored machine monsters before, the shape and size were not so exaggerated at all. They were made of steel and iron. , the domineering force that destroyed everything was something he could never imagine in his dreams. Even Daoist Sangkun, a battlefield veteran who had experienced many battles, was deeply shocked by it.
Dao Brother Da Niu was not so surprised. He had been in the army for more than 20 years and this was not the first time he had seen such armored machine men. He curled his lips and said: "Our armored machine men are now on top. It's just the trebuchets and long-range weapons of the Jin army. I'm afraid they will also greet these big killers of ours. Brother Zhuge, do you want us to clear these roadblocks as soon as possible and directly let the armored machine men approach and penetrate the Jin army's formation? ?”
Zhuge Feilong nodded and said solemnly: "Yes, that's it. There may be a second shield wall behind the Jin army's big shield. They also expected that we would send out machine men, so they uncharacteristically stood in front of the formation. As far as obstacles are placed, we must get within a hundred steps and shoot without obstacles in order to break the enemy's formation in one fell swoop. Then, it will be your soldiers who will pursue them across the board and drive the enemy's troops to retreat. Attack their rear formation. Therefore, I give you half a quarter of an hour now. No matter how many people die, no matter how fierce the opponent's counterattack and arrows are, you must clear the obstacles in front of me, whether they are horses or corpses. You can’t stay in front.”
Daoist Brother Da Niu gritted his teeth: "The Jin army should still have strong counterattack capabilities. They only fired one round of arrows, but it is impossible to have only one round of arrows. Our archers alone cannot suppress them." The rain of arrows, I need the armored machine men to give us enough support."
Zhuge Feilong curled his lips and said, "You don't have to worry about this. The bows and arrows and crossbows on these machine men are not for display. We came here from the smoke and dust just to break through the enemy's formation. You attack from the front." , we will knock out all the bows and slings except the flying crossbow."
Daoist Brother Da Niu laughed: "Now that we have such an assist, what do we have to worry about? Fellow Taoist Sangkun, throw away all your thoughts and thoughts now, clear the obstacles in front of you as quickly as possible, and don't shrink back anymore." , none of us can even think about living."
Fellow Taoist Sangkun nodded repeatedly, turned around and rolled up his sleeves, making a decisive look, and said in a low voice to Nong Zhi, who was still stunned: "Brother Nong, don't be in a daze, let's go quickly and put up obstacles. This is your most important thing." What you like to do is to open a path forward for the armored machine man, go for it."
As he spoke, he rushed forward. This time, his legs were flying, but the shield was still blocking the front.
Nong Zhigao, as if he had just woken up from a dream, also waved his hand, calling for his few Kunlun brothers to rush forward, while Dao Brother Da Niu followed closely behind, commanding the infantry and archers to come forward one after another.
Soon, almost all the Tianshi Dao sergeants on this line were cleared. Just like the front lines of various phalanxes in other directions, the tide-like troops became dense and compact, rushing forward.
A cruel smile appeared at the corner of Zhuge Feilong's mouth, and he said to his men on one side: "Give me the order, smoke where you are, and then step back thirty steps."
On a walking machine next to him, a disciple was holding a conch and was about to blow a trumpet and give orders. His eyes widened: "Master, are you sure you are retreating, not moving forward?"
Zhuge Feilong said impatiently: "Can I still give a wrong order? If I tell you to retreat, just retreat!"
The disciple was still a little unwilling. He looked at the sergeants in front and said, "But didn't you just say that if you retreat, you will be killed? And with so many believers rushing forward, if they are attacked by the Jin army's crossbows and stone throws, they will be killed." The current formation may be..."
A cold glint flashed in Zhuge Feilong's eyes. Behind him, the auxiliary soldiers had already unloaded some firewood sticks from the cart and began to smoke on the spot. Amidst the firelight and black smoke, Zhuge Feilong looked at the firewood on the side. Chui Luo ordered, while the disciple who was still full of doubts said: "Er Shunzi, in your eyes, these people who are rushing forward are your fellow Taoists and brothers, but in my eyes, in the eyes of Master Li, and in the eyes of Deputy Master Xu, , they are just chess pieces, think about it, even Daoist Brother Da Niu knows that the Jin army's strike power is definitely more than this, so what are their strike weapons used for?"
Er Shunzi suddenly understood, nodded and said: "Disciple understands, the Jin army also refuses to let go of the eagle when it sees the rabbit. If these long-range weapons are to be left for us powerful war agencies, then we really can't do it now." Stay here, but why do you need these infantry to charge first?"
Zhuge Feilong laughed and said: "They rushed out and blocked the horses by force. Seeing such a good formation and opportunity, the Jin army will definitely use their bows, crossbows and rocks. Only when they expose the position of the attack can we proceed. Fight back, otherwise what’s the point of smashing it all up?”
