When they heard the first explosion, Joda's team followed the instructions and filed out one by one from their hiding places.
But before taking a few steps, there was another earth-shattering loud noise from the north! The sound was so loud that it even stirred up the dust on the ruins, and the violent shaking of the ground made everyone almost fall to the ground.
Qiu Da stabilized his body and looked in the direction of Fang City in surprise. Due to the low position, he could only see an orange fireball mixed with billowing smoke rising continuously, like a fist waving to the sky. Around the flames, the red fog was reflected brightly, as if the sky was burning.
There was a look of horror in the eyes of the sand people.
This momentum... I'm afraid it can be described as the anger of the three gods!
"Don't be afraid!" Juda gritted his teeth, raised his arms and shouted, "That's what the Great Chief used to deal with the enemy! It's those devils who should be feared!"
His words brought everyone back to their senses.
"That's right, this is the sky fire from the Great Chief!"
"Don't stop, keep going!"
The stagnant team started running again. In the cracks in the walls, in the windows, in the corners of the collapsed houses... People kept popping up and merged into the attacking team. Soon, this inconspicuous flow of people quickly turned into a wave that could not be ignored, rushing straight towards Fang City.
Joda ran first.
Although he has long since surrendered to the warchief, he has always believed that the sand people are more suitable for fighting than the Northlanders, especially a small clan warrior like him who was born in a barren oasis and struggled to the death since childhood. Not only the bow and arrow machete, but also the musket. After receiving Brian's training, he even developed a unique skill. Not only is he excellent at fixed targets, he also has a good hit rate in shooting while running.
And now is undoubtedly the time to prove himself.
Not only did he want to be the first to rush into the city, but he also had to obtain the army's first victory.
He wants to make the name of Mo Jin, Joda, known throughout the army!
However, when the troops went all the way up the gentle slope and could just see the city walls of Fang Fang, a terrifying heat wave swept across the face. top of the sand dunes.
The hot air scorched his skin, making it difficult for him to even open his eyes.
The people behind are not much better.
The entire team seemed to have hit an invisible wall, and the speed of progress suddenly slowed down, and even some northerners who rushed forward ran back embarrassedly and crouched down under the ramp, as if doing so could avoid it. It was a sudden scorching heat.
Qiu Daqiang walked dozens of steps, feeling more and more that something was wrong.
The fireball that rose into the air has been extinguished, and there is only a circle of smoke that is still spreading. The red fog that was covering the sky and the earth is missing a piece here, as if it was bitten by a giant beast. The surrounding fog did not fill in immediately, but formed a large arc-shaped void.
Through the open city gate, he saw that the ground inside the city seemed to be roaring with heat waves, and the outlines of the buildings became extremely distorted, especially the wooden houses that were washed away by the explosion, and the scorched black columns were like claws protruding from the ground. And the enemy neither rushed to stop them, nor fled in panic. In fact, he did not find any trace of the devil at all.
At the same time, Juda felt breathless in his chest, and the surging heat around him made him dare not open his mouth to inhale at all, and his body seemed to be resisting to move on, every step was as heavy as a mountain.
Damn... When did you become so vulnerable
Even though the city wall was not far away, he felt that his entire body had lost his strength, and his vision was also blurred.
Joda stumbled twice and fell to the ground.
The last sight he saw was the disgusting face that Farrah had when he was dragging him.
…
The direction of this blocking war was completely beyond the expectations of Iron Axe and the General Staff.
In the original plan, the burning barrels lined up around the north of Wolfheart King City will turn most of the outer city into a sea of fire. The raging flames will not only devour those flammable houses, but also burn the red fog inside and outside the city. exhausted. This will temporarily make Fang City an "island", and those devils who do not carry breathing apparatus will inevitably fall into chaos and panic.
The final decision was made by the ambush troop that launched an attack while he was in chaos. Although he didn't know the exact number of the opponent, from past intelligence, the devil would deploy manpower according to the size of the population occupied. The fact that Fang City was evacuated would inevitably fall into the eyes of the enemy's investigators, so in the first few days covered by the red fog, the number of enemies who entered the city should not exceed 500. In other words, the First Army will have an absolute advantage in both numbers and momentum.
As for how many enemies can be annihilated in the end, that is not the focus of this battle. After all, in order to avoid the detection of the terrifying beast, the soldiers can only hide in the dark passages and ruins in advance, and all heavy weapons are useless. It is not difficult to suppress the enemy with rifles and anti-devil grenades alone, but it is difficult to bite and chase down the opponent all the way.
The main purpose of this battle is to combat the devil's offensive arrogance. As long as they realize that the retreating humans still have the ability to fight back, they can further reduce the pressure on the evacuation team.
However, the battle came to an abrupt end when it only reached the "detonation" stage.
The imagined wall of fire did not appear, but turned into an earth-shattering explosion. The royal city swept by the flames became a forbidden place. The ambush troops could not even cross the gate of the city, and were forced back by the heat wave, and several times. The individual also experienced burns and fainting symptoms. So far, the follow-up attack is obviously impossible to carry out.
Of course, this did not mean that the blocking battle was a failure, the hot air could be felt outside the city walls, and he could imagine what was going on inside the city with his eyes closed.
There has never been any proof that demons can burn better than humans.
The only thing that made Iron Axe regretful was that he couldn't go to the battlefield in person to walk around and see the specific results of this blocking battle. I don't know when the temperature in the city will drop, and this is obviously not a place to stay for a long time.
"Sir, all the troops have left Broken Tooth Castle, only us are left." Brian walked into the temporary command post, his eyes full of excitement. For him who did not experience the test of new weapons, but witnessed this scene directly in actual combat, this battle is indeed a scene that can be remembered for a lifetime.
"Very good, let's retreat too." Iron Axe nodded, "I guess it won't be long before the enemy will notice this place, and it won't be so easy to leave when their chasing troops arrive."
…
The fact is as he predicted, less than a day later, a team of devils rode a terror beast to Fang City, and its leader was the Vault of Heaven Lord, Hykezord.
