Chapter 248: Army, Imperial History
The battle between Luo Shen and Wang Mang almost destroyed the entire Wanmin Square, and the distortions that spread out were increasing exponentially, spreading farther along the streets, causing more and more chaos.
This obviously stimulated the garrison of Yujing City.
As time passed, the first to arrive at the scene had been reduced to vassals, and more soldiers wearing scale armor and armed with spears, swords, shields, or heavy bows and crossbows began to arrive in droves.
Unlike those who have almost no combat effectiveness in peaceful life, the garrison army of Yujing City has not experienced too many baptisms of war on weekdays.
But as a dynastic force guarding the most important core city, the training and quality of these defenders were undoubtedly excellent.
Wow! Wow! Wow!
The neat pace was accompanied by the sound of scales rubbing against each other, and a column of tall, muscular soldiers pressed across the street in a horizontal row.
Several aberrations spotted them at once.
"Cutting ——!" With some kind of chaotic roar, several aberrations immediately launched an attack on the army.
These monsters, infected by the flesh and blood of the evil gods, who had lost almost all their minds due to the great distortion, rushed down the streets and pounced on each other.
Collapse Collapse ...... A dense bowstring sounded, accompanied by dozens of arrows of about one meter that accurately hit the several distortions that rushed to the front.
Unlike the Silver Angels that Luo Shen had created in the Marvel Universe, these aberrations, although they looked hideous and terrifying, were not in essence formal creations that were carefully created by evil gods and consumed a lot of energy.
Their source is nothing more than the radiated aberrations of the evil gods to their own genes.
All distortion energy comes from the individual itself and from the subsequent devouring and digestion of flesh.
And how much energy can an ordinary person have in his body?
Coupled with the disordered nature of the aberration gene, this makes the aberration look terrifying, but in fact, in terms of physical strength, strength and speed, it may not be able to completely crush humans or beasts derived from nature.
The bow and crossbow used by the army of the new dynasty, the pulling force of the infantry war bow itself is about 140~200 catties, and the speed and power of its arrows far exceed those used in the modern bow and arrow movement on the earth, which are only forty or fifty pounds, or even twenty or thirty pounds of recreational soft bows.
At close range, not to mention a few ordinary distortions.
Even fierce beasts like tigers and black bears are afraid that they will be shot into a sieve immediately.
The reality, however, is that the aberrations have suffered no significant casualties.
Although the arrows had almost all pierced through the bodies of the deformed bodies, the lobes of the lungs, livers, or parts of the stomach or kidneys that had turned out on the surface of the body were also severely damaged.
But these highly deformed monsters clearly have extremely strong life force.
Just like zombies, it's hard to stop them if they can't destroy key parts.
"Get on the net!" When a lieutenant saw this, he immediately yelled and gave the order.
Only a moment later, from the rear of the formation, some soldiers carrying a ball of "fishing nets" made of hemp rope and large iron hooks and blades rushed up.
Whoosh——! Whoosh——! Whoosh——!
It is likely that these soldiers were fishermen who cast nets by the river to fish for a living before joining the army, and the technique of throwing nets with one hand obviously does not need to be said.
Almost every one of these large nets of great weight flew out accurately, unscrewing beautifully in the air, and the precise cover fell on the distorted bodies that rushed to the front!
Roar~~~! Attack! Felling ——! The deviants screamed and tried to break free, but the sturdy hemp rope and the inverted iron hooks and blades in the net made it impossible for them to break free.
"Spearmen! Advance! ”
The first row of spearmen immediately stepped forward, and with a flip of the spear of about four meters in their hands, it stabbed the distortion on the ground that was struggling in the net.
Poof! Poof! Puff puff...... The spear pierces, pulls out! Stab again! Spin, unplug! Stab again!
No matter how tenacious their vitality is, they are not the existence of the evil gods who are truly immortal and immortal, fabricating their own bodies at will.
The dense stabbing quickly killed several of the deviants, and the stench of blood spilled all over the street.
Such a scene soon unfolded in the streets, markets, and even alleys on the side of Wanmin Square.
The hooves of the horses roared, and the light horsemen on their horses charged through the streets in groups with swords and spears.
The trained war horse can overcome the fear of the terrifying monster in front of him, and under the urging of the knight, it will slam into the past with thousands of catties of force!
The spear pierced, the sabre was cut, and the man who was good at shooting drew his bow and fired.
The infantry marched in formation.
Ordinary defenders wearing a layer of ordinary scale armor blocked the streets, defending the blockade with spears, shields, knives and fishing nets, while the heavy infantry wearing heavy armor and helmets and neck guards wrapped the whole person into a small iron tower advanced in formation, and spears, knives, gourd hammers, large axes and heavy shields advanced hard! Slash those aberrations who are madly besieging them into meat sauce!
The light soldiers from behind stepped forward and burned the bodies of those deformed with fire oil, and cut off the heads of those colleagues who were injured and distorted.
Yes.
After the initial contact, the garrisons of the Jade Capital City discovered the contagiousness of the aberrations and found some crude and practical ways to deal with them.
……
With a slight sound, several figures appeared on the rooftops around the square.
The black tight-fitting suits and the iconic knives on their waists all show that the identities of these people are the very characteristic dark night imperial history of the Great New Dynasty.
As soon as everyone climbed onto the roof, they turned their eyes to the two people fighting at high speed in the square.
However, Wang Mang and Luo Shen's speed at this time was already at the limit, and even if everyone was a first-class player, it was difficult to see the movements of both sides with their eyes.
It wasn't until the two bounced off in reverse after a fight, and they were seen clearly by everyone in the air for a short time.
A dark night imperial historian unfolded a picture scroll in his hand, compared with the appearance of the characters in it, and suddenly exclaimed: "Sure enough! Is it a holy ...... He! He's still alive! That's what the rumor ......"
Hear the words.
The fifty or sixty-year-old man at the head interrupted him: "Shut up! ”
Then, the old man looked back at a middle-aged man beside his left, who was tall, with a thick beard and an extremely masculine temperament.
But what really stood out was the scar that covered the entire upper part of the skull, starting from the forehead, like a spider's web jagged.
It's as if someone had ripped open his scalp and smashed his skull!
This was not a craniotomy with a saw, but a brutal tear and a horrific scar left by the uncovering of the skull and bone fragments.
At this point, the horrific wound had healed.
But the scar on the scalp and the still bumpy and cracked skull underneath are still as eye-catching.
"Lei Yushi, this person is the demon you have fought against?" The old man pointed to Luo Shen in the square and asked.
