Zhou Tong was originally full of confidence and felt that this time he would be able to smash the city in front of him into a hornet's nest. Even if he could not force the opponent to surrender, he would definitely be able to cause heavy damage to it.
But what was about to happen directly overturned his cognition, and even his whole brain was confused for a while, unable to understand what kind of incredible plot development this was.
I saw that there was nothing on the top of the city wall, and suddenly pieces of wood began to extend rapidly from the mountain walls on both sides, and then were quickly assembled together to form a hemispherical shape that was sunk inward. The side facing Zhou Tong was covered with iron armor. When a huge boulder was thrown on it, the hemisphere dented backwards. The amplitude became larger and at the same time, the boulder bounced back after a moment.
"What the hell kind of operation is this?" Zhou Tong was shocked.
As for some of the soldiers below, they directly regarded it as a sorcery. After all, they had never seen such a strange city after fighting for so long.
Zhou Tong took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down. He was not an inexperienced soldier. Based on his past experience and some intelligence, he judged that this was Momen's mechanism technique.
However, although things like mechanism skills should not be underestimated, if you want to transform a city into what it is today, regardless of the manpower and material resources consumed, the key is to have people who have reached the pinnacle of this way.
"There are many masters in Momen!" Zhou Tong sighed.
According to some information he has, the current hall masters of each hall in Momen are all outstanding among the people, and they are good at a certain way. The machine city in front of him that has made him suffer one after another was probably the hand of one of the hall masters!
Although he was amazed at the uncanny workmanship of the mechanism in front of him, it was impossible for Zhou Tong to be afraid! Moreover, he has no retreat now. He can only keep moving forward and capture the machine city in front of him!
"Since it is an institution, it will eventually have its limits and cannot endure endlessly!" Zhou Tong thought.
He adopted the simplest and most direct method, which was to order his soldiers to attack continuously, as if an endless meteor shower was falling, hitting the hemispherical defense, and the sound of "dong dong dong" was endless.
Soon, the distance that the defensive wall could rebound gradually shortened. Except for the soldiers in front who suffered some casualties at the beginning, it was impossible for the boulders to hurt them after that, but they were just temporarily unable to penetrate.
Zhou Tong ordered not to stop the attack. Finally, the iron wall covering the outside of the wooden board gradually dented and deformed, and cracks appeared at the connection with the wooden board. After falling off, the broken wooden board was exposed.
"This is the moment! Set fire oil on!" Zhou Tong shouted and gave the order.
Then, I saw countless fireballs smashing into the hemispherical defensive barrier. The flames flew and quickly ignited it, and gradually spread into a monstrous fire!
Under the blazing flames, the twisted and deformed iron walls fell off one after another. The terrifying high temperature caused them to appear red, causing considerable damage after falling.
The defensive barrier that originally looked like an iron wall fell apart like this, and the soldiers on Zhou Tong's side finally cheered!
"The shield soldiers are in front, the siege team is behind, attack!" Zhou Tong waved his hand and gave the order again.
At this moment, Momen City is at a disadvantage. If this is a good opportunity, Zhou Tong will not give up. Taking advantage of the enemy's illness and taking his life is his way of doing things!
When Zhou Dong's soldiers launched an attack, something suddenly happened on the tower of the government city. The flames that had spread suddenly shrank, and then quickly converged towards a certain place. In a short time, The inside just disappeared without a trace.
Zhou Tong couldn't figure out what was going on for a while, but the third elder Xuan Zui not far away narrowed his eyes slightly and whispered in his mouth: "This flame..."
Behind the invisible barrier, Lin Yan slowly put down his hands, then let out a long breath, and the pure white flame disappeared without a trace again.
This was his use of Li Huo not long ago. Because Li Huo itself is of a very high level, it has an absolute restraint effect on this kind of ordinary fire, and its absorption is no problem.
In fact, as long as Lin Yan is strong enough and his body can bear it, then Li Huo can absorb the rest of the strange fires of heaven and earth, strengthen himself, and continue to grow!
Of course, this is just an afterthought. Mo Shenji originally had corresponding fire-fighting methods when designing the machine city, but Lin Yan's method was simple, crude and effective, so there was no use for these methods!
After experiencing the initial shock, Wang Xiaotong around him exchanged glances, summoned his energy and took action at the same time. The huge energy machine was pulled out, and all the defenses that were already in ruins were cleared away.
Anyway, after the previous attack, these defenses have no effect. Instead, they will hinder one's own side and should be abandoned.
Coincidentally, the shield-armored soldiers who were the vanguard had already approached the city wall. They were seriously injured by the sudden flying debris, and the formation was instantly in chaos.
Fortunately, it was not a deliberate attack, and only the soldiers at the front were severely injured, so they quickly adjusted and continued to move forward.
Lin Yan looked at the giant catapults lined up in the distance and frowned: "We must destroy those things first, otherwise if there is another wave of catapults, the city will be hit hard!"
Wang Xiaotong nodded, and then issued an order. Soon, eight siege crossbows appeared on the city wall.
This kind of giant crossbow is extremely powerful, but compared to the siege crossbows at the top of Chang'an City, these in Guancheng have been specially modified and upgraded by Mo Shenji, and their power has been further strengthened, making them a great battlefield weapon. !
When these crossbow arrows were aimed at Zhou Dong, his heart seemed to slow down for half a beat. The reputation of this thing was so powerful!
"put!"
As Wang Xiaotong's voice fell, eight blasts of wind-breaking sound struck the catapults like thunder.
boom! boom! boom!
Explosions continued to sound, and when three catapults exploded one after another, the surrounding soldiers were also affected. Their formations were disrupted by the violent energy, and many of them were injured.
This is because several elders of Xuantian Sect took action and blocked several siege crossbow arrows coming from the wind, otherwise the damage caused would only be greater!
This wave of attacks had just passed, and not long after the pause, the next wave of crossbow arrows followed.
At the same time, the artillery on the city wall fired a salvo, ruthlessly bombarding the soldiers attacking the city.
"Brewed, don't stop doing it, fight!" Zhou Tong was furious when he saw this. If he couldn't break through the defense of the outer wall of the city with the catapult, then the army would be blocked outside. The soldiers before The sacrifice will completely lose its meaning!
He ordered the catapult to continue the attack, aiming at the city wall to attack, and wanted the opponent to confront each other head-on. What he wanted was time to see who could be faster!
The siege crossbows were so powerful that it was impossible for the Xuantian Sect to intercept them for a long time with manpower, and the catapults were destroyed one after another. At the same time, the huge rocks and fireballs thrown at the outer wall of the organ city created cracks that continued to expand, and the artillery embedded in them was also damaged at an extremely fast speed.
The two sides are now engaged in a war of attrition regardless of the cost. They must destroy the opponent's attack methods as much as possible before they can take the initiative.
When the last catapult was destroyed, the artillery on the government city was also lost, and the outer wall was seriously damaged and no longer as strong as before.
Although nearly a thousand soldiers died in the artillery bombardment just now, this is not meaningless! At least at this moment, the way forward has been opened!
"Entire the team, attack with the entire army!"
Zhou Tong shouted loudly, and then the remaining soldiers began a mighty siege battle.
Now the defensive barriers outside the city have been almost destroyed, and the only means of attack are some bows and arrows and the powerful siege crossbow.
The single-target strike of that kind of big killer is indeed powerful, but when faced with an army of tens of thousands of people, it seems a bit useless.
Its attack power is naturally good, but it is difficult to cause large-scale damage. It can kill some people, but it does not seem to have much meaning against such a large number of people.
Moreover, while the power of Mo Shenji's improved siege crossbow was enhanced, its service life was greatly reduced. In addition, under continuous use in a short period of time, it itself is on the verge of collapse and cannot last long.
"It's my turn next!" Hall Master Wanxu stepped forward and said with a sinister smile.
He flicked his sleeves, and streaks of dark green smoke spread toward Zhou Tong's army. Behind Wan Xu, a strange-shaped object appeared at some point. Under the shaking of several disciples, it was blowing out gusts of wind, which spread the dark green smoke faster!
Although Wan Xu's poison is powerful, he is only one person, and it is extremely difficult to destroy an army of tens of thousands by acting on the spot. Fortunately, he has a lot of helpers!
Although the disciples of Poison Hall were far inferior to Wan Xu in the Poison Path, they were still numerous in number, and when they attacked at the same time, all kinds of smoke also drifted in the direction of the mighty army.
In Zhou Tong's eyes, the extremely gorgeous smoke of various colors was no less than the call of the God of Death, and he was afraid to avoid it!
"Quickly retreat!"
Although the order was transmitted quickly, there was a time lag in its execution. During this short period of time, the soldiers at the front had already begun to come into contact with the smoke and showed signs of poisoning.
The poisonous mist produced by the disciples of the Poison Hall was average in power. As it was diluted by the airflow, it was not so lethal. However, the methods of Wan Xu, the leader of the Poison Hall, really made people feel how terrifying this time!
Before the soldiers at the front understood what was happening, the skin exposed to the air began to fester and disintegrate when it came into contact with the dark green poisonous mist. In just a few breaths, it was completely corroded, leaving only The dense bones inside the armor were removed.
The shrill screams sounded one after another in the battlefield, like the screams of evil ghosts. It seemed as if this place was separated from the human world, and everyone was in purgatory!
In this battle, three thousand soldiers died in Wan Xu's hands alone. If Zhou Tong had not responded quickly, the casualties would have further increased!
The piles of bones have forged Wan Xu's evil reputation, causing Jianghu, who had gradually forgotten about him, to recall the deepest nightmare in his mind!
He is a poisonous person! That devil is back!
