Perhaps it was the leaflet that said "Shenzhou people will not fight Shenzhou people, Jinxia Army welcomes you home", or maybe it was the emotion in the song that made people eager to see their families, the Shenzhou Army soldiers had long since lost their hearts. No desire to fight at all. When the cavalry galloped towards Baihe City, the panic-stricken army collapsed instantly.
Faced with this overall collapse, even the supervisors did not dare to take action. They knew that in such a torrent, the only way to survive was to move with the current. Anyone who tried to stop it would be crushed into powder by the crowd. .
The escape of the Shenzhou Army also affected the Jinzhou Army in the rear.
The 50,000-strong team was instantly reduced by half, which was undoubtedly a devastating blow to morale. This can be seen from the continuously retreating front line, which shows that the front line has been difficult to maintain before the machine beasts have reached the main army.
"Master Hu, let the alchemist troops stop the Shenzhou Army!" His subordinates said urgently, "We can't let them disperse like this!"
At this time, if you have the ability to contain an army of tens of thousands of people, you have no other choice but the alchemists of the Privy Council.
Hu Wan shook his head, "Those people's hearts are no longer on the battlefield. Even if they are brought back, they are just a bunch of burdens. Don't panic, we still have the advantage in numbers. Send my order, and all the alchemists will follow the Hu character flag." Take action and use all the magic you are good at on those two-legged monsters!"
He took the Shenzhou Army as the vanguard because he had expected this. Although he did not expect that these people would scatter before the close combat began, at least they would not impact the Jinzhou Army's position.
The plan to capture Baihe City is still possible so far. As long as they block the first and strongest wave of the Jinxia Army's offensive, they can turn their passivity into an initiative, force their opponents back and take advantage of the situation to occupy the city.
The key to victory or defeat lies in destroying those hundreds of machine beasts!
After speaking, he flicked the reins and galloped towards the front line, "Raise your spear and stabilize your formation! Whoever kills the enemy will be heavily rewarded!"
"Kill the enemy and get a reward!"
"Kill the enemy and get a reward!"
The men shouted loudly.
After the cavalry and machine beasts passed through each other, the Xuanwu Army finally arrived in front of the main force of the Jinzhou Army.
They barely paused and then pierced into the enemy's ranks like sharp knives.
Another major advantage of the machine beast is revealed. Compared with the problems such as the limited sprint distance of the horse, the physical inability to sustain multiple charges, and being more easily frightened after being injured, the machine beast has no worries in this regard. As long as the driver still has the energy to drive the celestial device, these mechanical creations are killing machines that will never tire. Even if the gas tanks of air rifles are empty, their shields, feet, and even external storage racks are still deadly "weapons."
The Jinzhou Army arranged in a dense formation undoubtedly amplified the lethality of the Xuanwu Agency. Even if they ran back and forth in the crowd, they could make the Jinzhou soldiers' livers and gallbladders burst. Just one touch would break at least a few of them. bone.
At this time, the alchemist from the Privy Council finally arrived.
The first ones to take action were Lishu masters on the battlefield. This type was often the main force in the battle. The moment Yao Yin took action, several fire dragons sprang out from the crowd and instantly enveloped the giant machine beast. Under the flames, the wooden structure under the armor quickly carbonized and became brittle until it fell apart. The strength of his feet could no longer support the weight of his upper body, and he fell to the ground with a crash.
The elf controlling the Xuanwu couldn't bear the scorching heat and was forced to open the hatch and escape from the driver's seat. The Jinzhou Army soldiers who had been waiting for a long time finally got a chance, and more than ten spears stabbed her through.
"Tell everyone to gather together and cover each other's advance. Don't go deep into the enemy's position alone!" Ning Wanjun shouted.
The Xuanwu Army equipped with a message device immediately moved closer to the Red Suzaku.
Soon, several more machine beasts ignited fires.
But when Li Shu master performed the alchemy, he also exposed his position. The people who were well prepared opened fire violently towards the enemy's position, and the dense rain of bullets instantly created a bloody blank area.
When the driver evacuated the burning machine beast, he also received cover from his own side. Before the enemy troops formed a siege, he climbed onto the nearest machine beast storage rack.
"Advance to the right and rear, don't let the enemy get behind you!" Ning Wanjun knew her mission clearly. This Xuanwu army was not to defeat the enemy directly, but to repeatedly sweep the front line so that the opponent could not gain a foothold. Create conditions for subsequent large force attacks.
Hu Wan also took action at this moment.
He hid in the crowd and displayed his best skill. He did not embark on the path of specializing in illusions, but made full use of the meaning of the position itself, the word "water"!
"Kanshu returns home, Weigu!"
The ground exploded instantly, turning into circles of quagmire at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The sharply soaring water content caused the soil to quickly turn into a swamp, and the machine beast inside it suddenly lost its balance.
He has already seen that one of the shortcomings of these behemoths is that their bodies are too heavy. Once they fall into the swamp, there is no possibility of escaping on their own.
Although Kanshu cannot cause direct damage like Lishu, it is very suitable for restricting the enemy's movements on the battlefield, and sometimes it can achieve miraculous results. His promotion all the way to guard was due to this unique skill!
"Shocking thunder!" Hu Wan shouted.
Soon several soldiers rushed forward holding arm-thick bamboo poles.
The machine beast, which had lost its balance and was sinking, could no longer aim its gun at the enemy coming from the side. These thunderbolts were thrown towards the Xuanwu mechanism, and violent explosions occurred one after another!
Even an iron plate lined with vines could not withstand the close-range bombardment of the thunder. It was either completely blown away or exploded until it was twisted and deformed, which also affected the driver inside.
Seeing that the unstoppable bipedal monster was destroyed by ordinary soldiers, the morale of the Jinzhou Army was instantly restored, and cheers rang out from the crowd.
Have the opportunity! Hu Wan set his sights on the conspicuous red machine beast. According to rumors, this unique "monster" was the car of the third princess Ning Wanjun. If she could be killed on the spot, the situation on the battlefield would definitely be reversed immediately!
Thinking of this, Hu Wan led a group of personal guards to touch the princess's Suzaku. He had to be extremely careful to let other alchemists and soldiers attract each other's attention, otherwise he would be hit by the terrifying silent musket, and even he would be killed on the spot.
When the two sides got closer to a hundred paces apart, Hu Wan repeated his old tricks again!
This time, he controlled the entire swamp around the red machine beast.
It was a large circle of nearly thirty feet, and it was impossible for the princess to escape!
Hu Wan focused all his attention on the Xuanwu Army, but ignored an owl hovering in the air.
Wu Lie clearly captured the entire process of his performing the technique.
"Your Highness! The caster is on your left front!" He rushed down and reminded loudly. But at this time, the earth had melted away, and both of Suzaku's feet were submerged in the quagmire.
