Chapter 599: Bird Troop
Everyone climbed over a hill, and Moby Dick City was in full view. Although it was still far away, the rumbling of cannons could still be heard. Billowing black smoke billowed from the city, obscuring the sky almost completely.
Could it be that overnight, Moby Dick City has fallen?
Wu Song and Feiguang glanced at each other, and they both felt that something was wrong.
Feiguang ordered his men to speed up the march and rush to the foot of Moby Dick as soon as possible.
And Wu Song showed his body, a few ups and downs, and people were already miles away.
Wu Song soon came to the outside of Moby Dick City, where he was located, was the west gate of Moby Dick City.
Moby Dick City has two gates, the west gate and the north gate. The other two places, because they are next to high mountains, do not need to build gates to defend them.
The west gate was intact, and Wu Song breathed a sigh of relief.
In this way, Moby Dick City should not have fallen yet, and the pirates have not yet invaded the city.
But if that's the case, then what's going on with the black smoke in the city you just saw?
Wu Song rushed out of the Dragon Eclipse Sword, jumped up high, inserted the sword into the city wall, and after borrowing his strength, jumped onto the city wall.
As far as the eye could see, there were fires in many parts of the city, billowing black smoke.
Several unknown flying birds hovered in the air, dropping shells from time to time.
Wu Song jumped off the city wall and walked through Moby Dick City.
Because of the fire in the city, the streets were full of panicked people.
A little girl sat in the middle of the street, calling her mother and crying.
Suddenly, a bird flew through the sky and dropped a cannonball, which landed right on the little girl.
Wu Song shook his body, rushed to the little girl's side, picked it up, and jumped into the house next to it.
The next moment, a loud bang was heard. The shell exploded violently after it hit the ground, kicking up a thick cloud of black smoke.
"Nan Nan, where are you?" After the explosion, a woman walked out into the street crying and calling her daughter's name.
The little girl in Wu Song's arms heard the call, called her mother, and ran over.
Seeing that the little girl had found her mother, Wu Song relieved her heart and turned around and rushed to another city gate.
It seems that the pirates of the royal family have a new trick. Those flying birds must have been their tamed demon beasts, and after attacking the city with artillery to no avail, they sent the birds to attack Moby Dick City.
Beizhu and Yoko are both on the city wall, nervously directing the soldiers to meet the enemy.
"Lord, I'm back. Wu Song walked up to the city wall and said.
"Brother Wu Song, are you back? Where is Feiguang?" Bei Zhu saw Wu Song, and a look of joy appeared on his face.
"General Feiguang is in the back and will arrive soon. Wu Song said.
"That's good. Bei Zhu let out a sigh of relief after hearing this.
Feiguang arrived with people, and then Moby Dick City could hold out for a while.
"Island Master, what's the matter with those flying birds?" Wu Song asked.
"Those flying birds are demon beasts domesticated by the city lord of Coral City, they can understand human language, and they can fight according to orders. These flying birds were originally a strange soldier in the army of Zhongjie Island, but unexpectedly, this strange soldier was not used on the enemy's head, but on his own people. ”
Bei Zhu hated.
"How is the city wall now?" Wu Song said.
"They are still shooting the blood of the monocas to corrode the walls, and we use clean water to dilute the blood of the monoculus. At present, there is no major problem with the city wall, but it is not a long-term solution, and the city wall will collapse in three or five days, or seven or eight days. ”
Beizhu Road.
Wu Song saw that now the city wall was all covered with blood, because the people on the city wall kept washing the blood on the city wall with clean water, so the city wall also became blood red.
From the pirates' positions, cannonballs filled with the blood of one-eyed fish flew and smashed on the walls.
It's really not a way to go on like this.
At this moment, suddenly the soldier exclaimed, "Look, island master!"
Following the direction pointed by the soldier, Wu Song saw more than a dozen birds rising in the pirate's position.
The birds are arranged in a neat formation, five on the left and three on the left and three in the front and back.
They were all tied with thick ropes, and a cannon was hoisted from under the birds, which they slowly pulled into the air.
"Are they going to fire cannons in the air?" Wu Song looked at the birds in disbelief.
Sure enough, after the bird rose to a height of more than ten meters, it turned its artillery and aimed it in the direction of Moby Dick City.
A bird with a torch in its mouth flew up to the cannon and lit the fuse.
I heard a 'boom', and a cannonball flew in a whistling way.
This time the artillery was fired in the air, and the advantage of the height of Moby Dick's walls was gone. The shells fell directly on the defenders on the city walls, killing five or six people instantly.
The 'boom' sounded again, and the shells flew again.
"Be careful, island owner!" Wu Song saw that the cannonball was flying towards Bei Zhu, and hurriedly reminded Bei Zhu loudly, and at the same time drew out the Dragon Eclipse Sword, emitting a sword aura.
Before the cannonball could fly to the city wall, it was hit by Wu Song's sword qi and exploded in the air.
At this time, in the sky above the pirate position, dozens of flying birds had already flown and five artillery pieces were hoisted.
The artillery opened fire one after another, and the shells landed on the city walls, blowing up the defenders of Moby Dick and wounding them.
After Asuka hoisted the cannon in the air, the pirates on the ground retreated.
Now the situation is completely reversed, and the defenders of Moby Dick City rely on the height of the city walls to attack the pirates on the ground with artillery, while the pirates' artillery cannot attack the defenders on the city walls.
Pirates' artillery can now attack the Moby Dick defenders, while Moby Dick's defenders' artillery can't attack pirates.
Artillery could only hit the army on the ground, but could not lift upwards to attack the enemy in the air.
"All retreat!" Bei Zhu said in a loud voice, now the defenders on the city wall were completely in a situation of being beaten passively, and could only retreat temporarily.
When the defenders heard the order, they left the walls one by one.
Bei Zhu didn't leave, but looked at the pirate position in the distance, and anger shot out of his eyes.
"Owner, let's go, it's too dangerous here. Wu Song rushed to Bei Zhu's side and said eagerly.
Shells frequently fell around, and gravel was shot everywhere, some of which hit Wu Song's face directly.
Bei Zhu took one last look, turned around reluctantly, and walked under the city wall with Wu Song.
After defeating the defenders on the walls of Moby Dick, the pirates' Bird unit lowered their cannons and flew into Moby Dick instead, throwing cannonballs.
Dozens of birds circled over Moby Dick City, dropping cannonballs one after another.
Fires broke out in the city, houses collapsed, and many people were killed by shells.
Bei Zhu saw the people in the city suffering, and his eyes seemed to burst into flames.
"Damn!" Bei Zhu couldn't bear it any longer, grabbed the bow and arrow of a soldier next to him, and jumped out.
"Island Master!" Wu Song was taken aback and immediately followed.
Beizhu jumped onto the roof and ran between the roofs as she bent her bow and shot at the nearest bird.
The arrow whistled away, striking the bird in the abdomen.
In the past, the defenders of Moby Dick City had also used bows and arrows to shoot birds in the sky, but it was useless. The birds were thick-skinned, and sharp arrows were shot at them as if they were on rocks, so that they could not be hurt in the slightest.
However, when Beizhu's sharp arrow landed on the bird, the bird quickly turned into a stone statue and fell from the sky, shattering it on the ground.
This is another of Beizhu's abilities, which can temporarily attach his petrification ability to a weapon, and hit the enemy with the weapon to petrify the enemy.
Bei Zhu kept shooting arrows, and her aim was so good that almost every arrow hit the birds.
Birds kept falling from the sky and shattering on the ground.
These birds all have a certain amount of intelligence, and soon, they perceive that Beizhu is a great threat. As a result, the birds that were originally scattered all over Moby Dick City quickly gathered together to attack Beizhu.
In the blink of an eye, a large number of black crushed birds gathered above Beizhu's head, and they threw cannonballs at Beizhu.
Dozens of shells fell together, and Bei Zhu hurriedly fled to the side.
The shells landed around Beizhu, causing a series of explosions.
Even if Bei Zhu was a fifth-order demon general, under the explosion of so many cannonballs, it was also full of dangers.
Several shells exploded three meters from Bei Zhu's body as she was jumping from the roof of one house to another when a heat wave hit and knocked Bei Zhu to the ground in mid-air.
Bei Zhu fell to the ground and was unable to stand up for a moment.
At this moment, more than a dozen shells fell from the sky.
Seeing that Beizhu was about to be hit by a cannonball, he was blown to pieces. At this moment, several fierce sword qi swept by, and all the cannonballs in the air were cut by the sword qi and exploded.
"Island Master, are you alright?" Wu Song came from afar, holding the Dragon Eclipse Sword and protecting Bei Zhu.
"I'm fine, let's go. Bei Zhu stood up from the ground.
"I don't think we'll be able to escape so easily. Wu Song looked around and said.
I saw dozens of flying birds landing on the surrounding houses and trees, surrounding Bei Zhu and Wu Song.
Standing close at this time, Wu Song saw the appearance of these birds clearly. They are two meters tall and have no long hair on their bodies, except for black feathers on their two wings.
The bare body is covered with large and small brown spots, and it looks very disgusting.
Their eyes are blood-red with an evil glint in them. Their claws are long and sharp, like two scythes.
Each bird had a pocket tied to its belly with cannonballs.
At this time, each bird had a cannonball in its mouth, and looked at Wu Song and Bei Zhu with fierce eyes.
Obviously, the next moment, they will drop shells on the two people in the encirclement, killing them.
Wu Song shouted, "Island Master, go quickly!"
Wu Song pulled out the Dragon Eclipse Sword and swung out a sword qi to slash the birds in front of him.
However, it was too late, and at the same time as Wu Song pulled out his sword, the dozens of flying birds surrounding them threw out the cannonballs in their mouths at the same time.
All of a sudden, the cannonballs were overwhelming, and in the blink of an eye, they would fall on Wu Song and Bei Zhu.
Suddenly, a black shadow flew like lightning, grabbed Wu Song and Bei Zhu, and flew away.
I only heard the sound of 'boom' endlessly, and a series of explosions sounded behind Wu Song and Bei Zhu.
