2017 The siege (1)
The weapon in despair’s hand had not been used effectively as he followed Tang Zhen all the way here.
Or it could be said that the overwhelming advantage of these weapons was too great, so in a battle, the enemy was not a match at all, and often collapsed at the first touch.
To the tournament participants, this was something that they could not ask for more.
In a bloody war, it was necessary to maintain this kind of absolute suppression advantage to stand in an undefeatable position.
It was just that the opponents they had encountered before were all ordinary despaired people. Their strength was limited, and the weapons and equipment they had were unsightly.
Under such a situation, if Tang Zhen’s side still needed to fight with great difficulty in order to obtain victory, it could only mean that he had raised a group of trash.
Fortunately, this was not the case. With their excellent equipment, these despaired people did indeed crush all the way.
However, the enemies they were facing now were the guards of the city gate, which was different from ordinary despairing people.
The equipment and strength of the defending Army far exceeded that of ordinary desperators. Moreover, they stood on the city wall and looked down, which gave them a great advantage.
Under normal circumstances, with the lack of resources on this Street, the despaired would not have the strength to attack the city gate.
However, Tang Zhen was different. He was different from all the despaired people who entered this place. Others entered passively while he entered on his own initiative.
Being passive meant that he had no choice, while taking the initiative often meant that he was fully prepared. At least in terms of cultivation realm, he was enough to crush 99% of those who were desperate.
According to his realm, he shouldn’t be here. The mysterious crack was actually a loophole, and he was a virus-like existence.
If the other despairing people were a group of pitiful worms, then Tang Zhen was a Dragon that crossed the river. He was destined to stir up this pool of muddy water!
Following the attack of the convoy, the city gate tower in front of them was completely shrouded in smoke. In the midst of the flying dust, one could vaguely see a large number of damage marks.
In less than a dozen breaths, the entire city Tower was beyond recognition.
The guard general who had clamored for Tang Zhen to stop before going back on his word and ordering the archers to attack had long been scared out of his wits. No one knew where he was hiding.
However, the attack did not stop. The order the desperators received was to pour out all the ammunition they carried until the city gate tower was razed to the ground!
Just as the armored cannonballs began to attack the city gate tower, the puppet-like soldiers on both sides of the city wall were still tirelessly drawing their bows and shooting arrows at the carriages.
It was unknown what kind of bow and arrows they were using, but their range could easily exceed one hundred meters. When they landed on the armored chariots, they kept making crisp sounds of impact.
Although the arrows were sharp, they could not penetrate the metal shields at all. Even if some of the caravan members were shot and fell to the ground, they were quickly pulled to a safe place for treatment.
The combat Team members with magically modified pistols aimed at the archers on the city wall. They fired one shot after another to ensure the accuracy of their shots.
What made people feel that something was wrong was that these guards were like emotionless puppets. When faced with the bullets, their bodies did not Dodge at all.
Even when their comrades were shot and fell to the ground one after another, they remained expressionless.
However, it was also because of this that they were easily beaten to the ground like targets.
As the city guards were knocked down, the pressure on the ground started to decrease. The rain of arrows above their heads became thinner.
The desperators under Tang Zhen immediately increased the intensity of their attacks when they saw this. At the same time, they slowly advanced toward the City Tower in front of them.
This was how sieging a city was like. One had to seize the opportunity that flashed by, taking advantage of the moment when the enemy was suppressed to completely break through the enemy’s line of defense.
Under the intense fire suppression, the attacks from the city wall became weaker and weaker, and in the end, they were almost negligible.
The huge city wall had been bombarded with thousands of holes. Because they had deliberately attacked one place, some areas had completely collapsed.
The iron-armored chariots rushed to the bottom of the city, and the Warriors quickly climbed up through the broken gap.
The entire city wall was filled with people climbing up like ants.
The remaining enemies on the city wall were still shooting arrows down, trying to stop the despaired from climbing, but they had long been locked on by the combat personnel below the city wall.
Finally, a despairing person climbed up the city wall and raised his modified pistol to shoot at the surrounding. When he ran out of bullets, he waved his sword and killed the remaining enemies.
More and more desperators rushed up the city wall. After the previous bombardment and shooting, there were only a few guards left on the city wall. The desperators quickly took the absolute advantage.
They chased after the remaining enemies everywhere, turning every corner of the city wall upside down, not letting any hidden enemy escape.
However, the desperators soon discovered that there was something wrong with the guards on the city wall. Although they were also made of flesh and blood, they looked more like puppets.
After the city wall fell, they stood still as if they had lost their souls.
On the other hand, the guards on the city gate tower looked like they were alive, but their faces were pale and they were trembling in fear.
They kept begging for mercy under the muzzle of the deserter, but no one paid them any attention.
After another 20 minutes or so, the battle on the city wall had officially ended. The desperators had already taken complete control of the entire city gate.
The heavy and damaged city gate was slowly opened, and a group of despaired people stepped out, forming a line on both sides of the road.
The war chariots outside the city started moving again. They formed a long line and slowly advanced towards the city gate.
Tang Zhen walked with his hands behind his back. The dwarf, Xiao Wu, and the others followed closely behind, walking at the very front of the convoy.
At the city gate, a dozen figures knelt on the ground in a sorry state. They were all tied up with ropes and were constantly trembling.
Tang Zhen suddenly stopped when he passed by these people who were kneeling. He turned his head and looked at one of the captives.
He recognized the other party. He was the one who had stood on the city wall earlier and stopped Tang Zhen from approaching.
He was also the one who ordered the arrows to be fired when Tang Zhen was retreating in an attempt to kill him.
Compared to his previous arrogance, the current general was like a stray dog, his face full of fear.
“Let me ask you, I had clearly retreated just now, so why did you still give the order to attack?”
Tang Zhen softly asked. His tone was a little cold.
“I’m Yingying!”
The general opened his mouth to say something, but he found that no matter what he said, he could not hide his previous sinister intentions.
He clearly had ill intentions and wanted to kill Tang Zhen in front of the city gate.
you don’t have to say anything. This has no meaning to you or me, right? ”
Tang Zhen shook his head. The guard had a face of complete breakdown. He had already foreseen his own fate.
“I beg you, please spare my life!”
The general quickly opened his mouth to beg for mercy, but just as the words came out of his mouth, he stopped abruptly.
A cold light flashed, and the head of the general flew up into the sky. It rolled down into the dust and was crushed by the rumbling wheels of the carriage into dregs.
The huge convoy continued to move forward. The city gate that had sealed off this Street for countless years was now directly blown to pieces by the most violent method of desolation!
The despaired people who had followed the convoy here had yet to recover from their shock. Even now, they still could not believe what they had just seen.
