Chapter 956: Debut, Heavy Giant Crossbow! (1)
Chapter 956
Roar!
The roar of the giant beast, one after another, resounded throughout the vicinity of the city of Talas, and the huge body continued to squeeze and advance towards the king. Although Abmus/Lin's arrow missed, it was not without effect, and at the moment when Wang Chong was distracted, the scaly beast took the opportunity to rush forward, and it was less than ten zhang away from the first steel defense line. It breathed a jet of air, spraying on the steel city walls, emitting a huge roar like a huge wave crashing, and some of the closest Tang warriors couldn't reach it, and even people and horses were swept out.
Wang Chong turned into several arms of the Enma Heavenly God, hugged the neck of the fearful, and resisted to the death. Although Wang Chong tried his best, it became more and more difficult to support. The power of the "Enma Descending" is not unlimited, every second that passes, Wang Chong's strength weakens by a point, Wang Chong was able to resist the advance of the scaly beast at first, but now, Wang Chong's entire body was pushed forward by the giant beast.
"Damn it!"
Wang Chong roared angrily, the iron rod in his hand bombarded the head of the giant beast again and again, and the purple flame turned into the power of Lu Wu in his body, wrapped in the iron rod, and continued to spread into the body of the giant beast. Every second that passed, the vigorous life fire in the giant beast's body would dim a little, and a majestic life force poured into Wang Chong's body, but it still couldn't stop this crazy giant beast. Although its skull was punched out of a hole by Wang Chong, this was already the limit, and it seemed that there was an invisible force resisting Wang Chong, and it could not advance a bit.
"Put!"
On the ground, Chen Bin's right hand swung down again. In all directions, countless crossbow arrows burst out of the air, shooting at the scaly beasts in front of them. But this time, a considerable part of the crossbow arrows were all bounced off by the hard scale armor on the giant beast's body, and only a few of them shot through the gaps in the scale armor.
- Although Wang Chong dragged the giant beast, his huge Enma body also had a great impact on the attack of the ballista troops on the ground.
"Put it again!"
Chen Bin's face did not change, and he ordered again. This was the last attack that the crowd could launch, and the behemoth could step over at any moment, and it only took one kick to inflict heavy losses on the Ballista troops.
"Zhang Shouzhi, aren't you okay yet!"
Wang Chong's anxious voice resounded in the air. In the place where everyone's eyes couldn't see, Wang Chong's face was already as white as paper foil, and blood was dripping down his tiger's mouth. To forcibly fight against a giant beast that you can't defeat is to put a great load on your body. Click, a huge crack, like a spider's web, spread from the Yama Celestial's shoulder through his back to his waist. And such a fine crack was still increasing at an astonishing speed, towards the four-armed Enma Heavenly God that Wang Chong had incarnated. In just a few moments, the Enma Celestial God's body was already covered with such fine cracks, and the whole thing was like a porcelain doll that was about to be broken.
This is a sign that the Enma Celestial God has reached its limit and is about to collapse.
On the ground, the atmosphere was tense and tense to the extreme. All the craftsmen were frantically assembling them, their faces were pale, their scalps were fried, and they were extremely nervous.
"There is still a moment! Hou Ye, support it!"
Zhang Shouzhi's beard flew, and an anxious voice came from the ground.
At this moment, no one knows how much pressure he is facing.
Not enough time!
If it is a gourd painting scoop, Zhang Shouzhi can quickly assemble it, but such a thing as a heavy giant crossbow has never appeared in the history of the empire, and all the craftsmen, including Zhang Shouzhi himself, do not have any existing experience. That's not enough time.
"Boom!"
As soon as Zhang Shouzhi's voice fell, the huge scaly beast immediately pushed the huge Enma Heavenly God forward. The Yama Celestial's massive heel kicked up a cloud of dirt and dust, slamming into the steel city behind him. I heard a loud and earth-shattering noise, and in the midst of everyone's exclamations, seven or eight steel cities were uprooted, rolled in the air like a broken kite, and flew out.
"Retreat!"
A burst of screams resounded in the sky, and in front of the giant beast, there was chaos, and countless soldiers retreated in panic. In front of the giant beast, everyone is like ants, it is too weak, and it is difficult to inflict even the slightest damage, let alone fight.
"The seventh phalanx, the tenth phalanx, the twenty-third phalanx...... , all backwards!"
A familiar voice sounded in everyone's ears, it was Wang Chong's voice. Even in the midst of a fierce battle and with his back to everyone, Wang Chong still grasped the situation of the entire battlefield at all times. Even if he was in an extremely dangerous situation, he did not mess up the phalanx at all.
"Coax!"
After receiving Wang Chong's order, the army in front of the giant beast quickly dispersed on both sides.
"Roar!"
And almost at the same time, the scaly beast also stimulated its ferocity, and it shook its body violently, and its huge body kicked up a large cloud of sand and dust with agility that did not match its body, and shot out. Ah, bursts of screams were endless, and those usually seemingly ordinary sand and dust, under the terrifying power of the giant beast, suddenly became the most terrifying lethal "weapon".
Xi Yuyu, in the miserable neighing, one after another war horses couldn't dodge, and were hit by the sand, and suddenly the flesh and blood were blurred, and their bodies were full of honeycomb-like blood holes. And the warrior on horseback, although wearing battle armor, was also beaten and flew up from the horse, fell out heavily, and was already injured in the air, and his breath was cut off. - Even if a giant elephant sneezes, it is a devastating blow to the ants. The same is true for the Tang Dynasty/army in front of Talas City, manpower is really too small for these mythical and legendary monsters.
"Damn it!"
All of a sudden, Wang Chong's eyes were red. I didn't have time to think about it, the iron rod in my hand, which was more than ten meters long and was originally used to deal with the giant beast, was slanted by Wang Chong and inserted into the soil behind the defense line, one end of the iron rod sank into the underground rock, and the other side was dead against the body of the giant beast.
In order to avoid heavy casualties among the army, Wang Chong had no other way.
But even so, this is only temporary, and the crisis of the army is far from over.
"Click!"
At this moment, there was a crisp sound, and in the shocked eyes of countless people, another huge arm of the huge Enma Heavenly God was broken from the roots, and it fell heavily from the sky to the ground, startling the sky with smoke and dust. The four-armed Enma Celestial, this is already the second arm that has fallen!
And where everyone's eyes couldn't see, almost at the same time that the second Heavenly God's arm fell, Wang Chong puffed and spurted out a mouthful of blood.
"Master Hou!"
Seeing this scene, on the ground, Chen Bin, Sun Zhiming, Chen Burang, Zhuang Zhengping and others all changed their faces. Although the realm is far from enough, everyone can also feel that Wang Chong's physical fitness has reached the limit, and I am afraid that he will not be able to support it.
However, all this was far from over, boom, the scaly beast "Fear" exerted all his strength, and suddenly slammed into the body of the Enma Heavenly God, and this blow directly knocked Wang Chong out more than ten zhang away. Without Wang Chong's obstruction, a blank area more than ten zhang away suddenly appeared in front of the giant beast, and all the armies suddenly had no way to hide.
"Oh no!
"Retreat! Retreat! Retreat!"
"Get out of here!
......
Seeing this scene, the dense tens of thousands of Datang/army were in chaos, the panic spread sharply, and everyone felt a strong breath of death.
The army, which had originally maintained its composure, was instantly routed on all fronts.
The damage that an unstoppable beast can do in an army is unimaginable.
"Master Hou! the heavy giant crossbow is ready, everyone dodge!"
Seeing that the army was about to suffer heavy losses, a loud cry suddenly came from the crowd. Without the slightest warning, the thousands of craftsmen who had been gathered together suddenly dispersed and quickly retreated in all directions. And in the middle of the craftsmen, a huge, heavy crossbow has been fully assembled, this crossbow string is more than ten meters long, the whole body is pitch black, many parts are still steaming hot, these are just cast parts, immediately used on the giant crossbow.
After exerting a lot of time and energy, and gathering the strength of many craftsmen, Zhang Shouzhi finally completed this heavy giant crossbow!
"Howl!"
The giant beast roared, and at the same time as everyone finished, the giant beast's muscles rose up, its body squatted, its huge head slowly lowered, and its scarlet eyes full of destruction stared downward, which was a sign before the giant beast was ready to attack.
"Senior Zhang, give us the heavy vehicle crossbow!"
"The seventh, tenth, twelfth, fourteenth phalanx...... Everyone, all come forward!"
"The thirtieth and thirty-eighth phalanx are fully loaded with crossbow arrows!"
......
In the midst of the lightning and fire, there was no time to think about it, Chen Bin suddenly drew his long sword, rushed forward, and issued a series of orders, the army was all in chaos, everyone was running away, the physical strength of the craftsman group and Zhang Shouzhi was almost exhausted, Wang Chong was also knocked away by the giant beast, at this time, except for Chen Bin and his ballista troops, there was no power to stop the giant beast.
"Boom!"
The well-trained training of Chen Bin and the ballista troops was reflected at this time, and at the moment when Chen Bin's voice fell, the soldiers of the ballista troops, who were already ready to retreat, changed direction, rushed up, and all rushed towards the heavy giant crossbow.
There are hundreds of crossbow warriors, and the division of labor is clear, and there is no confusion.
In the rolling and loud noise, the huge machine was quickly pulled apart, and dozens of Datang warriors worked together to quickly install a crossbow arrow more than ten meters long and nearly a thousand catties on the heavy giant crossbow. Boom, a huge sole of foot stepped down and landed in the area inside the defense line, and the huge force seeped into the ground through the ball of the foot, causing a wave of earth shaking within the defense line. Dozens of feet away, there were bursts of screams, and hundreds of fleeing iron horsemen were thrown into the air with men and horses.
- The Behemoth finally broke through the defenses and launched an attack at this time!
Nearly 100,000 troops are in danger and precarious!
"Put!"
Chen Bin finally gave the order to launch. At that moment, time seemed to stand still, everyone held their breath, and their hearts were in their throats. The idea of a heavy giant crossbow has always been an idea, and it has never really been realized, whether this heavy giant crossbow can succeed, whether it can be launched, and whether the crossbow arrows fired can cause damage to the scaly beast, even Zhang Shouzhi, the actual creator and executor, does not know, let alone others.
But at this moment, everyone has no choice, no matter whether they succeed or not, they can only try.
