Chapter 388: Sharing the Heavens
.
In order to stop Kunsha's increasingly frenzied slaughter, Jagg had to keep chasing her figure with a dozen points of spirit, and then when the latter had no intention of fighting him at all, but was only bent on slaughtering Thunderbird, Jag could only roar and be helpless.
Turning his gaze to the battlefield at the top of the hill, the barbarians finally gained a foothold on the edge of the cliff under the premise that Crolin was well prepared, and as the ogre advanced with a giant shield in front of the detachment, the defense space of the Spartacus archers was compressed little by little, and both sides suffered casualties in the fierce exchange of fire, but seriously speaking, it was Ivo's side that suffered more serious damage.
For no other reason, under the protection of the ogre striker, the orcs have gained enough space to dodge, and even if Spartacus's side is superb in archery, the results that can be achieved when the probability of shooting and killing plummets is also greatly suppressed.
The orcs had learned to be obedient this time, and had been cowering behind the ogre's giant shield until the Spartacus had finished a wave of attacks before poking out from behind the shield to launch a counterattack, although there were also jagged boulders as cover, but the boulders thrown by the cyclops further behind could smash the marksmen hiding behind the cover and even the human stones.
In just a few minutes of fighting, there were dozens of sharpshooters buried together with the bunkers, coupled with the cold crossbows and arrows that the orcs jumped out from behind the ogre from time to time, Ivo could only order the shooters to disperse and shoot autonomously, but in this way, the long-range suppression inevitably took on a sparse and casual posture, and the ogre front had already begun to draw out the weapons behind them and prepare to start hand-to-hand combat.
It is a pity that once you enter the white-knuckle battle with bayonets, it will be a great disaster for the shooters.
Fortunately, Ivo's predicament did not last long, and while the Thunderbird in the sky was being slaughtered by Lear and Kunsha, a terrible birdsong suddenly came from the sky west of the Crimean Valley.
Suddenly attacked by the barbarian Thunderbird, his sea eagle brigade was almost completely killed, and he had no choice but to desperately retreat to the west and then choose the opportunity to regroup, and now that the Thunderbird Legion has been completely entangled by Lear and Kunsha, it is naturally time for them to take revenge.
"Target the top of the mountain and the valley mouth! Blow up those eight lambs!"
Ilore roared, and half of the less than two hundred eagles rushed towards the valley mouth, while the other half swooped down on the barbarians besieging Ivo on the top of the hill under his own leadership.
"Boom!" "Boom!"
One by one, nitroglycerin explosive packets that had been ignited fell towards Taniguchi like raindrops, and immediately the barbarian legions that had gathered in Taniguchi to rescue the ten ghostly beasts trapped in the valley blew up a man on his back.
Without the Thunderbird Legion's resistance, hundreds of sea eagles are like no one, as long as they maintain a sufficient height to avoid the axes and crossbows of the orcs below, the barbarians below can only roar and hug their heads and scurry, and can only shout at the sky without any room for counterattack.
Taking advantage of the sudden chaos of the barbarians' front army, the crystal dragons in the valley divided ten to continue to besiege those ghost beasts, and the remaining ones immediately rushed out under the leadership of Melos and slaughtered.
There is no need to deliberately kill at all, just by stepping on the huge size of the barbarians, it can take the lives of countless barbarians, and before the monstrous smoke and dust kicked off by the serial explosion slowly dissipated, he immediately retreated into the valley and held on, angrily commanding Grant Francelle beat his chest and roared again and again: "Sea barbarians, Lao Tzu and you are not sharing the sky!"
Not to mention that Grantell was hysterical and helpless on the battlefield of the valley mouth, and the top of the hill where Crolin was also full of flesh and blood, because the space was narrow and the barbarians on the top of the mountain were extremely dense in order to guard against the cold arrows of the Spartacians.
The Sea Eagle Brigade that undertook the strategic bombing mission of Spartacus carried 30 kilograms of explosives per load, and the sight of nearly 3,000 kilograms of nitroglycerin explosives exploding at the same time on the top of the barbarian's head and under his feet was nothing more than magnificent.
Almost even the sky shook, and the huge explosion was accompanied by the violent burning and fluctuating of the air condensed into a terrifying mushroom cloud at the top of the mountain, and before the barbarians could figure out what was going on, the violent shock wave directly destroyed their cranial nerve centers, and squeezed the shattered internal organs and bones into a bloody mass of flesh in their chest walls and forced out of their throats and mouths.
Then, before their bodies could fall to the ground, the relentless flames swept everything in an instant, and at the same time, the mountain under their feet suddenly collapsed and slid because it could not withstand this terrifying force, making the barbarians who were standing in the distance and not directly affected by the explosion screamed and were buried in the ruins along with the cracked rocks.
As for those who were at the center of the explosion, there was not even a single piece of ash to be found.
That's not all, after all the explosives were thrown, Ilore saw that there were still a large number of barbarians on the top of the mountain who were not dead, but the aftershocks of the explosion also made those people either lie deep on the ground or wail in pain or be dazed, and after flying a hundred meters away from the battlefield on the top of the mountain, he turned around in the air again, and then took out the spare crossbow on the back of the sea eagle and pounced towards the top of the mountain.
Of course, Ivo would not miss such a good opportunity, he walked out from behind the cover with the shooters and shot the water dogs, while all kinds of fireball spells in his hands continued to smash into the barbarians' formation, not asking how much damage these mid-level and low-level spells could really do, just trying to delay the barbarians' recovery from the upheaval, and then cooperate with Irol to mercilessly slaughter the barbarians who had temporarily lost their will to fight.
The appearance of Ilore certainly caused a huge panic to the barbarians, but if the commander of the ground forces of the barbarians could readjust their tactical deployment at this time and order to ignore the air raids of Ilore and directly storm the valley, in fact, the barbarians still have a great hope of making a breakthrough on the battlefield.
After all, although the killing effect brought by Ilore was shocking, he did only have two hundred people left, even if 6,000 kilograms of nitroglycerin explosives killed thousands of barbarians, but for the barbarian legion whose army was still close to 40,000, such damage was not unbearable.
The most important thing is that the Spartacians have rushed to the mouth of the valley, and if the barbarians launch a decisive charge, they no longer need to break through the two gourd mouths, resulting in the battle line being stretched infinitely, and there are already ten ghostly beasts in the valley as assistance.
Although those ghost beasts are now covered in bruises due to the long siege, if the barbarians storm the valley at any cost to rescue them, they are still extremely important combat power.
And what is good is that the bombardment of Irore just now directly blew up an old crack at the mouth of the valley, causing a large area of collapse at the entrance to the Crimean valley, and the number of troops that can accommodate the entrance is directly doubled.
At this time, if the barbarians fight hard again, even the pressure on the crystal dragon blocking the valley mouth will increase exponentially.
One of the key points that the barbarians don't know is that although the crystal dragon is a little stronger than the ghost beast, after all, not every one of them has the same strength as Kunsha, and they can also be injured and die, which can be seen from the fact that the Cyclops King's attack can make the crystal dragon break the defense.
However, even more dying, when another detachment of sea eagles was bombarded by Ilore's orders to bombard the enemy in front of the valley, one of the fighters accidentally flew over his head and threw the explosive bag in his hand into the barbarian Chinese army.
And the explosive bag exploded even more evenly at the feet of a big-eared monster standing on the lookout, directly blowing up the bracket of the lookout, causing the lookout to collapse, causing chaos in the smoke and dust in the sky and the panicked shouts of the barbarians.
And that big-eared monster is none other than Weir, the leader of the barbarian battle mages who stayed behind in the command of the Chinese army.
