Yan Ding said: "It would be a bit bad if Luo Bingfeng came out now."
No need for Song Zining to answer, the old man from the imperial family said: "No. He is not sure whether we have set a trap for him to lure him out of the city and kill him. If I were him, I would never take this unnecessary risk.
The city at least has the advantage of the Holy Mountain. Look!"
The old man from the imperial family stretched out his finger, and countless crystal grains shot out from his fingertips, turning into countless flying snow in the distance. Some snowflakes fell, and were held in the air by invisible barriers and stopped falling. In the blink of an eye, they were in front of everyone.
A crystal barrier appeared, looking at the curvature, it faintly enveloped the Holy Mountain.
"This is the Holy Mountain realm. It seems to be stronger than our family thought."
At this moment, the aerospace ship was staying not far from the edge of the Holy Mountain. Seeing the barrier so close, some people changed their expressions and said, "What if he suddenly rushes out and retreats with one blow?"
Many people had the same worried look on their faces.
Song Zining laughed and said: "No need to worry! Luo Bingfeng is a hero, and he doesn't bother to sneak attack on the weak to avoid losing his reputation. Only I can do this kind of thing, haha!"
The person who just spoke laughed a few times and took the opportunity to step down.
Elder Li frowned and said: "This holy mountain realm is really not easy! If Luo Bingfeng is determined to hide in the holy mountain, it might be really difficult. Seventh Young Master, do you have any good ideas?"
Another elder also said: "Yes, it seems that this holy mountain must be solved. Qi Shao, you collected so much money from each of our families, but you said it was for the purpose of solving the holy mountain. Don't tell us now that you
There is nothing we can do.”
Song Zining smiled slightly and said: "The solution has been available for a long time. Now, there is no need to hide it from you. Look, isn't that the solution to the Holy Mountain?"
Everyone looked in the direction of Song Zining's finger and saw rows of heavy artillery positions. Until now, a steady stream of containers were being shipped over, and parts were removed from them to assemble new heavy artillery on the spot.
"Heavy artillery?"
Everyone had seen these heavy artillery a long time ago, but they didn't take it seriously. Heavy artillery was flashy and useless against stronger soldiers, and it was almost useless against strong men. They thought Song Zining brought these heavy artillery just for
He demolished the city's fortifications, still laughing at him for making a fuss. Although Tingchao City is strong, its defense system is not the same as that of the important cities of the Empire and Yongye, so there is no need for so many heavy artillery.
"That's them. As for how to use them, we will know when tomorrow comes." Song Zining started to lie again.
In the dead of night, the imperial army has been assembled, and the entire camp is brightly lit, which is even more dazzling than Tingchao City. However, the camp is quiet, and the soldiers are resting, recharging their energy, and waiting for the next day's general attack.
However, the city defense troops did not dare to be careless for a moment and defended all night for fear of being attacked by surprise.
There were always warships floating in the sky, leaving the city defense army with no way to sneak attack. Finally, at dawn, the soldiers from the empire walked out of the barracks in high spirits, while the city guards on the city wall showed signs of fatigue.
The eyes of the city guard general were bloodshot, and it was obvious that he had not slept well all night. He stared at the city, not letting go of his opponent's every move, and his hand pressed against the wall was trembling slightly.
Suddenly a big hand stretched out from beside him and pressed it on his hand. Then someone asked: "Are you scared?"
The city defense general turned around, stood up straight, and said: "General Du!"
Du Yuan nodded slightly, his eyes were like lightning, and asked again: "Are you scared?"
The city defense general's face turned red and he said: "In all these years, when have you ever seen me afraid? I just don't understand what they want to do."
Du Yuan glanced at the bottom of the city, frowned slightly, and then muttered: "It's flashy, what are you afraid of what he will do! With so many heavy artillery, do you want to demolish the city? Ha, demolish it for him!"
"General Du, I'm afraid..." The city defense general hesitated to speak.
At this moment, the ground suddenly trembled slightly, and a cloud of white smoke rose from the heavy artillery position in the distance. With a loud noise that echoed through the sky, a heavy artillery began to test fire.
This was a correction shot, and there was nothing surprising at first. But as the shells passed through the air and the sharp whistle was faintly heard, Du Yuan's expression suddenly changed.
With his eyesight approaching that of a divine general, the heavy artillery shells were as slow as a snail, and their trajectory was clearly visible. The shells had an incredibly long range, passing high over the city and falling towards the Holy Mountain.
Before he could think about it, Du Yuan roared, soared into the sky, blocked the trajectory of the cannonball like a meteor, punched out, and exploded the cannonball in the air.
The general of the city guard looked shocked, and the other soldiers were also confused. They didn't understand why Du Yuan cared so much about a cannonball.
Outside Tingchao City, Song Zining opened his folding fan and sneered: "If you can stop one, how can you stop hundreds of rounds? I want to see if you have more force or I have more cannonballs. Come here, Send the order, prepare all heavy artillery, and fire three times in rapid succession!"
After a moment of silence, the earth-shattering roar of heavy artillery drowned out everything. Rows of shells flew across Tingchao City like locusts and flew towards the Holy Mountain.
Du Yuan's face showed despair, and he jumped into the sky again, spraying out countless green fireballs from his body, which spread all over a hundred meters in an instant. As soon as the heavy artillery shells hit the fireballs, they would explode immediately. Fireballs ignited in the sky, which was a spectacular sight.
But Du Yuan tried his best and could only intercept the artillery shells hundreds of meters around him. However, the Holy Mountain is so big that most of the artillery shells missed. The city defense general also saw that something was wrong and roared and ordered his men to intercept, but those officers Although they were not afraid of heavy artillery bombardment, interception was more than twice as difficult as defense. All the soldiers tried their best to stop only half of the shells, and half of the shells still hit the holy mountain hard.
Suddenly, the earth shook and the mountains shook.
Du Yuan stopped in the air, watching the fireworks rising from the holy mountain, despair flashing across his face. He staggered, and suddenly fell to the ground. The interception just now had almost exhausted all his original strength.
The city defense general was shocked, flew over, helped Du Yuan up, and shouted: "General, general!"
Du Yuan opened his eyes, managed to regain his strength, and said, "Do they still have many shells?"
"This..." The city defense general didn't know whether he should say it or not.
Du Yuan opened his eyes angrily and shouted: "Say!"
The city defense general gritted his teeth: "There are many more, many more."
After hearing this, Du Yuan's eyes went blank for a while, and it seemed that all the strength in his body had gone with him. His lips moved, but he could not speak. He stretched out his hand to hold the shoulders of the city defense general, struggled to stand up, and said in a deep voice: " Help me to go to the Holy Mountain."
"That's useless!" said the city defense general.
"Take me there!" Du Yuan also insisted.
At this moment, the feet of the two men shook slightly again, and a heavy artillery shell flew through the air, leaving another crater on the holy mountain.
If the concentrated fire bombardment continued, there would be no surprise. On the contrary, it would be strange if a shell flew in.
Inside the floating ship, Song Zining ordered: "Continue to calibrate the cannon and wait for my order. By the way, bring that person up."
After a while, the guards brought in a fair-faced, rather handsome young man. He bowed his head and when he saw Song Zining, he was about to throw himself to the ground as a salute.
Song Zining raised his folding fan lightly, and a soft force lifted the young man up, saying: "No need to kneel, I can't bear it."
The young man hurriedly said: "If you, Qi Shao, can't bear it, who else can?"
Song Zining was unmoved and said calmly: "The information you brought this time seems pretty good. If you win this battle, your official position will be fulfilled."
The young man was overjoyed and said: "Thank you Qi Shao for your cultivation!"
Song Zining asked casually, "I remember you also said that this Du Yuan seems to have a very close relationship with that... madam?"
The young man hurriedly said: "Perhaps she should be called Miss. As far as I know, although Miss Nan has been getting along with the city lord for some time, it seems that she has never crossed the line."
Song Zining raised his eyebrows, as if he was very interested in this. After thinking for a moment, he asked again: "I heard that Du Yuan treats you well, why do you want to defect to us?"
The young man gritted his teeth and said: "Do you treat me badly? Well, nominally I am his adopted son, but I have been working for him since I was a child, and I don't do anything but try my best. But the old guy just refuses to pass on his secret knowledge.
Give it to me and leave all the good things to his son! What else should I do with such a person? Only a master like you, Qi Shao, is worthy of my following..."
Song Zining quickly stopped him, "Okay, I understand. You go down first!"
After the young man left, Song Zining paced back and forth and whispered to himself: "I didn't cross the line, I didn't cross the line..."
After a moment, Song Zining suddenly stopped and sneered: "Who am I? It turns out to be the remnant of Ming Yue Qin's heart flow! Humph, you let me know your origin, do you still want to escape?"
Song Zining opened the hatch, strode into the command room, and said: "Give me the order, prepare all the heavy artillery, and focus on the Holy Mountain until all the artillery shells are fired!"
The ordering soldiers left in a hurry, and Song Zining said again: "Prepare my armor and guns!"
All the soldiers were shocked and said one after another: "Seventh Young Master, is there a decisive battle now?"
Song Zining nodded and said: "It won't be long before Luo Bingfeng comes out. Send the order, the warships move forward and raise the battle flag!"
The flagship in the sky discharged a large cloud of steam, and the desolate and distant trumpet echoed over Tingchao City. When the war horn was heard, the camp below began to boil, the gate opened, and groups of soldiers covered the chariots and trucks with steel plates.
Get off and begin to slowly approach Tingchao City.
The sound of the war horn was soon drowned out by the roar of heavy artillery. Countless shells roared into Tingchao City and smashed into the Holy Mountain. In the blink of an eye, the Holy Mountain was engulfed by thick smoke and fire, and one shell after another flew into Tingchao City.
Like a meteor shower, whizzing down.
In the sky, the hovering warships slowly started to move, like giant beasts hunting for prey, pressing forward. The line of fire also moved up the city wall with the movement of the warships. In the blink of an eye, the walls of Tingchao City
They were submerged in the sea of fire. The firepower of the empire's regular warships was unprecedented in the East China Sea. The city defense turrets were destroyed almost immediately, and the defenders were also bombed until they were unable to fight back.
In the air, there are still three battleships hovering. They are the Imperial Palace, the Family Alliance and Song Zining's flagship.
In the flagship of the Family Alliance, Elder Li looked at the sacred mountain shrouded in fireworks, his eyebrows furrowed. The person next to him finally couldn't help it and asked his doubts: "Isn't this just blowing up a barren mountain? What's the use?
