Chapter 599: Three Days of Bloody Battle
Caught off guard, the demon legion was really ruthless, hundreds of silver-level high-level demons were killed on the spot, and hundreds of them were seriously injured and basically lost their combat effectiveness.
However, Emperor Shi Tian also revealed the location of his firepower, so he hurriedly ordered the treasures who fired to move quickly.
And the legendary demon Zagulang did not disappoint Emperor Shitian, and those high-level alchemy siege equipment in the hands of the people also exerted their might, and smashed them fiercely at the location of the magic crystal cannon and the alchemy heavy crossbow.
Even if Emperor Shi Tian had ordered the transfer, there were a large number of big guys, but they couldn't just leave if they wanted to, although most of them had moved away from their original positions, but some were left behind, and they were smashed on the spot by the burning boulders thrown by the demons.
As a key protection object, the magic crystal cannon was the target of the first transfer, but it did not suffer any losses.
But the alchemy heavy crossbows are different, they belong to the second stage of evacuation targets, and they must wait for all the magic crystal cannons to be removed before they can be withdrawn, so there are thirty or fifty alchemy heavy crossbows that have not had time to escape.
More than half of them were smashed, and a small half escaped by chance, after all, the opponent's heavy weapons were not too accurate, just a pure pile.
In this way, it is actually equivalent to the exchange of some high-level resources between the two sides, and the damage on the demon's side is undoubtedly much more, but the Emperor of the Liberation Heaven is not the slightest loss.
Of course, Za Gulang is not satisfied with this exchange ratio, but considering that the resources in the hands of Emperor Shi Tian are limited and not as rich as his, it is not unacceptable.
And just when the long-range firepower of the two sides destroyed each other, this wave of offensive of the demon legion was finally pressed down again, and the crazy shelling of the short-barreled alchemy artillery caused a lot of damage to the little devil.
However, the little devil finally got some opportunities to make a move, and a large number of fireball techniques were smashed over, and the second line of defense was basically beaten to pieces, which was completely scrapped.
I have to say that the short city wall built temporarily is too unbeatable, often a fireball technique can blow up a big gap, and a few fireball techniques can blow up a small section of the city wall.
In this case, in order to reduce casualties, Emperor Shi Tian could only abandon the plan of letting the high-level troops raid and let everyone retreat to the third line of defense.
In general, the confrontation of the second line of defense, everyone was very painful, Emperor Shi Tian not only lost some alchemy heavy crossbows, but tens of thousands of people died tragically on the spot, although most of them were alchemy soldiers, but there were also thousands of aborigines, which was already scarce in number, which can be said to be worse.
As for the side of the Demon Legion, the total number of losses is actually not much, but the problem is that a lot of high-level demons have died, and they are much more powerful than those cannon fodder, so the total losses are even heavier.
This made Za Gulang very uncomfortable, he would rather die than lose hundreds of thousands of high-level demons.
However, the development of the matter is obviously not subject to his will, Emperor Shi Tian has clearly set his sights on his high-level troops, and would rather take risks than kill them again, even at the expense of exposing the precious alchemy equipment, which shows the great determination of his determination.
Feeling the determination shown by Emperor Shi Tian, Zagu Lang frowned, and finally had no choice but to retreat, because the high-level demons were too important.
So, after Zagulang let the troops on the front line rest a little, he continued to attack, but this time, all the high demons had to hide well, don't expose themselves easily, it is better to know that they will only reveal their true bodies when they attack the city wall, so as to achieve the greatest results.
With Zagulang's order given, the high-level demons who didn't want to take the risk in the first place immediately breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly used various methods to hide themselves.
Nightmare Knights will find a way to hide behind tall monsters, Fire Demons will shrink their size so that they look like bronze Fire Demons, and the funniest of all are the snake demons, who don't have the ability to change, they just lie on the ground and move forward like a snake.
Since the height of the snake demon is less than one meter after lying down, it is easy to be blocked by the crowd, so it is not easy to be attacked.
The next battle can be said to be unusually bloody and tragic, it is simply a contest of wills, a battle of blood and iron!
At this time, the demon army showed their aggressiveness to the fullest, encountering traps, destroying traps, encountering walls, destroying walls, encountering enemies, destroying enemies!
Nothing can stop the crazy attacking demons, the fall of their companions, they will only be happy that they have a stepping stone, the scars on their bodies will only make them more excited and bloodthirsty, and the terrifying spells and cannonballs that come to their faces do make them feel the breath of death, but they still can't stop their footsteps, because at this time, they have already boiled their blood to the point that they are completely afraid of everything!
This is the one who crisscrosses the heavens and planes, sees the gods kill the gods, sees the Buddhas kill the Buddhas, and the four powerful gods are all forced to huddle together to keep warm, the abyss demon!
And in the face of these numerous, crazy, and particularly powerful enemies, the soldiers on the front line even had a demoralization collapse for a time, and they were desperate to die!
However, at every critical moment when the collapse was imminent, Emperor Shakti would send a reinforcement army to comfort them, and at the same time tell them in incendiary language, "Victory will belong to the light, the devil is at the end of the crossbow, as long as you hold on to the darkness before the dawn, you can get the salvation of the whole world! Think of the destroyed country, think of the devoured relatives and friends, and think of the children who need protection behind you, do you want to be a glorious warrior and fight the devil to the death, or are you a shameless coward who willingly becomes the devil's dinner?"
I have to say that Emperor Shi Tian is worthy of being an emperor, and he has grasped the psychology of the soldiers to the extreme, and the reinforcements of a large number of necromantic airships instantly reflected their morale and made them see the hope of victory, and the particularly sensational mobilization order completely aroused their potential fierce temperament.
Many warriors have struggled out of despair and instantly become fearless warriors, even at the cost of dying with the enemy.
Relying on various means, Emperor Shi Tian was stunned to lead this group of human troops who did not have an advantage in strength and quantity, and used the terrain advantage and the air supremacy of the necromantic airship to very reluctantly block the onslaught of the demon army.
Although one wall after another was destroyed and taken away, the overall losses of the human forces were not particularly large, and most importantly, every time they retreated, they found that new walls had reappeared.
Although they are not particularly tall or strong, the presence of walls to defend them can give them infinite confidence, and it can really greatly reduce casualties.
One day, two days, three days, the entire battlefield has become a huge meat grinder at this time.
The demon army smashed millions of troops back and forth, although they forcibly broke through twenty or thirty lines of defense and killed two or three hundred thousand human warriors, but they suddenly found that they seemed to be stuck in a quagmire.
Because Emperor Shitian's defense lines were not neatly built, the front two or three defense lines were a little better, and the back defense lines were simply like a labyrinth, twisting and turning, uneven.
In this way, when the warriors of the demon legion poured in from behind, they had to keep wandering, and sometimes they couldn't reach the front line after walking for a day, and they got lost in the middle of the road.
And in the face of such a situation, even Zagulang has no good way, he once let the high-level demon take action, find a way to break some city walls, and open up passages one by one.
But later I found out that this method is really a bit stupid, because the current three battlefields, each of which has a radius of dozens of miles, even if you open a passage, you can only attack in one direction.
If you want to let a large army enter and exit quickly, you must at least open dozens, if not hundreds, of passages.
But the problem is that even high-level demons are difficult to break through the walls layer by layer, a few walls are okay, and dozens of walls are a bit difficult for people.
What's more, Emperor Shi Tiandi is not a fool on his side, he hates that someone opens the way the most, and once he finds out, he will immediately greet him with a magic crystal cannon, even if the target is exposed.
After killing dozens of silver demons who had opened the passage, Zagulang simply gave up on this stupid idea and instead asked the little demons to find a way to blow up all the walls.
In this way, the entire battlefield is emptied, and the teams behind can easily reach the front.
Of course, this is definitely a very huge project, and even if there are many demon legions, it will take several days to complete.
After all, the project here was made by Emperor Shi Tian with thousands of earth-based monks, who were busy for more than a month.
Of course, it is impossible for Emperor Shi Tian to watch and not do things, since the other party will no longer launch a fierce attack, then the team that has come down safely can continue to bombard with artillery while repairing, and kill one by one.
Zagulang had no good way at this time, so he could only hold back his anger and watch the sabotage ahead.
But the more he looked at it, the more wrong he felt, he was desperately tearing down the city wall there, consuming precious magic power.
However, the other party is recuperating, and he can keep killing his own personnel with alchemy fire.
If this is delayed for two or three days, or even three or four days, he will become a tired soldier, how can he confront the heyday army of others?
The first few days and nights of fighting have finally dragged the human army to exhaustion, do you really want to give them a chance to breathe?
Zagulang only thought for a second, and came up with the answer, the human army must not be given any respite, otherwise the disaster will be endless.
After thinking about this, Zagulang then adopted the second method of breaking through the labyrinth, didn't you use the mason to restrain me? Then I will use the troops to fill the entire labyrinth, so that I can always find a way, right?
