Chapter 65 The first artillery of the Wu Dynasty [5000,
The defenders on the city wall positioned Ning Chen's Italian cannon.
However, at such a long distance, they had no idea that this Italian cannon would be useful.
At such a long distance, even a sixth-grade warrior standing on the city wall would see nothing more than a group of black spots on the opposite side.
Ning Chen had locked the angle long ago, and this time it was not mainly for precise strikes.
He ordered Yun Xuanzi and the rune shells they made to be loaded into the Italian cannon.
Then Ning Chen directly used his strength to ignite the gunpowder in the cannonball.
"boom!"
There was a huge roaring explosion.
A rune cannonball that turned red due to violent friction with the air flew towards the demon alliance on the opposite side.
Watching the cannonball draw a red arc in the air.
The soldiers in Baijiacheng were all dumbfounded.
At such a long distance, this Italian cannon was actually able to hit it.
This is a bit too exaggerated.
About ten seconds later, the cannonball fell into the army of the Ten Thousand Monster Kingdom.
"boom!"
The rune was detonated the moment it encountered resistance.
The violent Dao Qi fluctuations directly formed a shock wave visible to the naked eye.
A seventh-level monster at the center of the explosion was torn into pieces.
The demon clan further away was also cut in half by Dao Qi's impact.
One cannonball directly caused the death of more than a dozen monsters.
The most important thing is that these demon clan coalition forces are completely confused.
With such a long distance, how did the human race come here?
Could it be that a master of level 4 or above took action?
But if it was really a third-level master who took action, the power shouldn't be so small.
Moreover, it would be unwise to expose a third-level master now.
If a third-grade master is so consumed, doesn't that mean he has given up his hope of victory?
Before the demon clan alliance could figure out what exactly happened.
Five more friction-red cannonballs smashed into the coalition forces.
The number of coalition forces is large, and the target is naturally not small.
When it was smashed down like this, it was really smashed over.
The successive explosions directly killed a group of demon clan troops.
Looking at the Monster Clan Alliance Army, there were fires rising into the sky, and some vaguely visible corpses that had been blown up into the sky.
The defenders of Baijia City finally knew the power of this Italian cannon.
On the other hand, the demon clan coalition forces were completely panicked.
They have never seen such new weapons before.
It can hit such a long distance, and it can also cause such lethality.
This is really a terrifying killer weapon.
The demon soldiers and demon generals from the three demon kingdoms including Huikui Demon Kingdom wanted to retreat immediately.
But how could the Tiger Clan let them retreat?
"Attack! Attack immediately!"
"As long as we are fast, he won't have time to target us!"
The envoy sent by the Tiger Clan immediately used super strong pressure to intimidate the three demon kingdom leaders, and gave a straightforward order.
Facing this envoy from the Tiger Clan, the leaders of the three demon kingdoms naturally did not dare to say anything.
You must know that the third grade and the third grade are completely different.
They, the third-rank kings, have completely different meanings from the third-rank members of a big clan like the Tiger Clan.
Just as Fang Xiong could easily kill them, this third-grade messenger of the Tiger Clan.
You can also kill them easily if you want.
Even if they manage to escape by luck, there will definitely be no place for them in the Ten Thousand Monster Kingdom in the future.
The power of the Tiger Clan is extremely powerful, and no one in the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom dares not to give the Tiger Clan face.
There was simply no place for them to escape.
Surrender to the human race?
This is even more impossible.
Their hands are all stained with human blood.
Some of their subordinates may be accepted by the human race.
But it is absolutely impossible for them to be accepted by the human race.
"attack!"
"attack!"
"Attack immediately!"
Under the urging of the three demon kingdom leaders, the three demon kingdom coalition forces rushed directly towards Baijia City.
Ning Chen already knew all the distances and angles.
Coupled with the brain transformed by Haoran Zhengqi.
All the data was formed in Ning Chen's mind in an instant.
The ability to process data is absolutely comparable to that of a computer.
Plus the remote control of Jinqi and Haoranzhengqi.
The angle of the Italian cannon was constantly adjusted by Ning Chen.
Rune cannonballs flew downward one by one.
"boom!"
"boom!"
"boom!"
The sound of explosions continued.
And every cannonball fired will definitely bring some harvest.
Just by rushing out a distance of less than five miles, the three allied forces of the Ten Thousand Monster Nations paid the lives of hundreds of monster soldiers.
If they continue to charge forward, they may not have many soldiers left.
This kind of long-range weapon that can continuously and accurately strike really frightens the demon clan.
The tiger tribe envoy's face was also uncertain at the moment.
Baijiacheng actually came up with such a brand-new weapon at this time.
This is obviously aimed at myself.
A mission like attacking Baijia City was something that it had to overcome with great difficulty.
There are Ningchen and Fangxiong in Baijia City, and there are also two military towns.
This is all information known to the Tiger Clan.
But even so, the Tiger Clan did not take this into consideration.
Fang Xiong is invincible, but there is only one Fang Xiong.
As long as Fang Xiong is entangled, Baijiacheng and the two military towns are all in the tiger clan's eyes.
It only takes a few sprints to achieve a complete victory.
In the final analysis, for the tiger clan.
Baijiacheng is just an emerging force in the four northern states.
They are different from the four northern states, the semi-saint families, vassal kings, etc. that have been dealing with them.
In the eyes of the Tiger Clan, Baijiacheng is still a very weak existence.
However, the rewards offered by the Tiger Emperor for conquering Baijia City are not large at all.
If you can conquer a hundred cities, the rewards you can get are the same as those you can get if you conquer a state city.
He was able to get such an opportunity, but it took a lot of effort.
Originally, Lupo thought that he could conquer Baijia City in just three days.
It's really ridiculous that he is the one being attacked now.
Under Ning Chen's continuous bombardment, the number of the three Allied Forces of the Ten Thousand Monster Nations was getting smaller and smaller.
Seeing that there are fewer and fewer people around me.
He was constantly being blown up into the sky.
These fierce monsters who are not afraid of death are really panicked.
Once fear arises, the ensuing defeat is certain.
The coalition forces of the three Ten Thousand Demon Countries immediately began to flee back.
Seeing the coalition forces of the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdoms fleeing back.
Lupo also knew that even if he continued to exert strong pressure, it would not help.
Moreover, the demon soldiers of the Three Kingdoms Alliance Army also have other uses.
It's not worth consuming it all here.
Lupo no longer planned to stop them from escaping back.
But Ning Chen's Italian cannon had no intention of stopping.
At the same time, Fang Xiong, who had already ambushed them, led a group of troops and blocked their way back.
"Kill with me!"
Fang Xiong roared.
Then he took the lead and rushed directly into the fleeing demon army of the Three Kingdoms like a human meat grinder.
Wherever Fang Xiong passed, no matter what level of monster they were, they were all easily crushed.
It was originally a large army that was fleeing, but Fang Xiong and others intercepted them halfway.
They just completely collapsed.
When I escaped just now, I still had some structure to follow, but now I see that there is really no structure at all.
Just scattered and fled.
In this way, it will be easier for the Huwei Army to strangle them.
Relying on the advantages of the establishment and the ease of waiting for work.
Killing these monsters is really easy.
Fang Xiong rushed back and forth on his own, until he was covered in blood.
He just quit the battle.
Although Fang Xiong kills people, he will not take it easily.
Fang Xiong knew very well who his opponent was now.
The captives of the Tiger Clan are Fang Xiong's opponents.
Fang Xiong stood in front of the formation, looking arrogantly at Lupo who was two or three miles away from him.
Valley King
The meaning is very obvious, I am just provoking you.
If you have the ability, come out and challenge me.
See who dies first.
This was not the scene Lupo expected.
At this moment, the advantage Lupo had imagined was gone.
Not only is the advantage gone, but he is now completely at a disadvantage.
At this time, he rushed over to fight Fang Xiong.
It is impossible to change the situation of the war at all.
After all, he really didn't think that he would be the opponent of the number one general under Marquis Dingguo.
Lupo could only watch as the mighty tiger army killed the Allied Forces of the Three Kingdoms one by one.
As for the heads of the three kingdoms of Huikui Kingdom.
All they can see is anxiousness in their hearts.
Even Lupo is no match for Fang Xiong.
When they go up, it's like delivering food to Fang Xiong.
Now they can only watch as the demon kingdom they finally managed to run disappears in front of them bit by bit.
The battle lasted for about two hours.
In the end, the demon army of the Three Kingdoms, except for very few demon clans, escaped.
All the remaining invading enemies were killed by Fang Xiong and his mighty army.
In the main city of Baijia City, many people have not even seen the specific appearance of the demon clan.
This battle is over.
The soldiers guarding the city, looking at the Italian cannon, their eyes gleamed.
This is definitely a killer.
A powerful weapon capable of both offense and defense.
One by one, regardless of the hot cannon body, they started stroking the Italian cannon.
Even the strange name "Italian Cannon" seems to them to be the most pleasant name at the moment.
They even thought that such a domineering weapon must have a strange name to match it.
For the first victory of his Italian artillery.
Ning Chen was still very satisfied.
But Ning Chen also knew it.
The main result of this victory was that the demon tribe was caught off guard.
It will not be easy to achieve such results next time.
My own Italian cannon is not perfect either.
First of all, the trajectory of the shells of our Italian guns is actually fixed.
If you wait for the cannon to be fired and then take the initiative to change the route.
In fact, it is possible to avoid shelling.
Of course, this ability is only for monsters of level five or above.
Monsters below level five can only be beaten passively.
Secondly, if a master from the demon clan takes action in advance, the shells can also be intercepted.
However, this is also aimed at demon clans above level five.
At the same time, it also depends on whether the fifth-level monsters and above are willing to waste a lot of their own strength to intercept these rune cannonballs before they see the human race.
These rune shells have the bonus of Daomen runes.
The firmness and power have been greatly improved.
If you want to destroy it calmly, it's impossible.
This was also a question that Ning Chen specifically explained to Yun Xuanzi later.
Ning Chen told Yun Xuanzi that the power of the rune cannonball itself could be slightly reduced.
But the strength of the rune cannonballs must be improved.
The purpose is to make the demon clan, even if they want to destroy the cannonball, they have to pay a huge price.
Looking back now, Ning Chen's decision at that time was still very wise.
Of course, in addition to its strength, it has its own Italian cannon, which can attack a very wide area.
It is unrealistic to stop them all.
In short, the current situation is that it is impossible for the demon clan to completely avoid it.
But if you pay a little attention, the loss can still be reduced.
How much it can be reduced depends on how many Italian guns Ning Chen has.
What if Ning Chen was directly on the city wall, lined up with a hundred Italian cannons, and didn't care about the consumption of cannon shells.
That is unless the demon clan of level three or above takes the lead and launches an attack on the city first.
Otherwise, it is almost impossible to break through your own artillery array.
Of course, Ning Chen is just thinking about a hundred Italian cannons by himself.
One hundred Italian artillery pieces would cost several hundred thousand taels.
After one round was fired, the cost price of 50,000 taels of shells was gone.
After more than ten rounds, hundreds of thousands of taels were gone again.
Although Ning Chen said he has a little money now, he really can't bear to do this.
Therefore, Ning Chen's initial target was twenty Italian artillery pieces.
If they are arranged on the city wall in this order.
Basically it can cover all the places on the opposite side.
Basically it can be done without any blind spots.
This first battle directly demonstrated the majesty of Italian artillery and the majesty of Baijiacheng.
This is definitely something that many people don't think of.
Even Fang Xiong was full of praise for this Italian cannon.
He directly made his own decision and placed a second order for twenty Italian artillery pieces to Ning Chen.
"Let's put aside the business matters of General Fang for now.
We were completely victorious in this first wave of impact.
General Fang thinks what should we do next?
If we continue to wait for their second wave of impact, we can take the initiative to attack their home base."
Fang Xiong didn't expect that Ning Chen would have such radical ideas.
But this time, Fang Xiong chose to play it safe.
"The people sent by the Tiger Clan are not at the same level as Hui Kui and the others, let alone the same thing.
The two cannot be compared.
If we rush over now, we may fall into their trap.
So we just have to wait."
Ning Chen didn't expect that Fang Xiong would actually have a steady hand.
"Then what if they stop attacking?" Ning Chen asked.
Fang Xiong glanced at Ning Chen and said, "Are you really planning to take the big shot?"
Ning Chen said with certainty: "That's what I think.
Since we have to fight sooner or later, it's better to take advantage of the fact that we have a heavy weapon in our hands now.
Hit them first.
They were beaten to such a degree that they were beaten to the point where the Ten Thousand Monsters Kingdom would not dare to start another war for several years."
Fang Xiong nodded and said, "What you said is quite what I want."
After a pause, Fang Xiong added: "Having said that, the Huwei Army is indeed far behind the soldiers under my command.
If it is my soldiers, they will cooperate with your Italian artillery.
None of the Tiger Clan people can leave today.
But for now, we can just wait.
The Tiger Clan will not retreat so easily.
Their target this time is very obviously you and your Baijia City.
Attacks against other places in the four northern states are also important.
But there is no such obvious strategic intention on your side.
Especially in this first battle, they were defeated miserably.
If they retreat directly, their joint offensive this time will be over.
This is not in the interest of the Tiger Clan, nor in the overall interest of the Ten Thousand Monsters Nation.
So when they attack, they will still attack, but they don’t know when to attack.”
After hearing Fang Xiong's words, Ning Chen also nodded.
As for other aspects, Ning Chen can naturally analyze things clearly and logically.
But when it comes to the use of troops, Ning Chen still needs to listen to the opinions of professionals like Fang Xiong.
What's more, it's rare that Fang Xiong doesn't have a superior, so he still has to listen carefully to such professional opinions.
"General Fang, if our side wins a complete victory, wouldn't it speed up the overall defeat of the Ten Thousand Demon Kingdom's offensive?" Ning Chen asked Fang Xiong.
Fang Xiong nodded and said: "It should be like this.
As long as you defend this point, or directly take the initiative to break their formation.
The rest of the offensive will not last long."
The topic changed and Fang Xiong said: "But there is another possibility. The Ten Thousand Monster Kingdom may choose to fight with us this time."
Ning Chen's eyes moved and he said: "General Fang, you are saying that the Ten Thousand Monster Kingdom is not willing to return to the Shang Town and make deals with our human race.
Are they just counting on this time to buy enough food for the winter?"
Fang Xiong nodded and said, "That's right."
"Does General Fang think such a thing is possible?" Ning Chen asked.
Fang Xiong glanced at Ning Chen and asked, "Then do you think such a thing is possible?"
"this……"
In fact, Ning Chen already had the answer in his mind.
Such a thing is simply impossible to happen.
The Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons is not monolithic.
If the offensive situation is unclear.
Next, they will definitely return to the commercial town obediently and accept the human race's pricing.
Follow the normal way to trade with the human race to obtain the food they need, etc.
It's true that the demon clan is relatively easy to get into.
But the demon clan is not a fool.
You know, the demon clan was enlightened by Confucian people.
