Chapter 431: An Unstable Line of Defense

As soon as the soldiers of the Early Spring Kingdom woke up, the undead on the sea launched an explosive charge, and the speed suddenly increased several times.

They relied on a little strength after being summoned to maintain walking on the water, and they did not have this strength themselves. Speed up, for the undead, it's really a last resort, the big guy comes from behind, if they don't speed up, the big guy behind will trample them to pieces.

The soldiers recruited by the Early Spring Kingdom were suddenly a little flustered, they had experienced too few battles, compared to Su Jing's soldiers, they had seen a few big scenes.

This is also something that can't be helped, no one can become an elite soldier without experiencing life and death fighting.

The war drums beat more rapidly, and in the sky, hundreds of airships fired a series of heavy crossbows in front of them, these airships were all puppet manipulation, and on the ground, there were also post-qi refiners commanding.

After launching a round, these airships retreated, there was no way, the skin of the airships was too brittle, no matter what level of Dao art it was, it would definitely be able to be knocked down if they were thrown on.

If the defense capability is increased, the cost will be doubled, and no one can make a high-quality and inexpensive airship, in contrast, the floating battleship itself is an offensive and defensive one.

The soldiers of the early spring country, fortunately, after Su Jing's devastating training, after hearing the commander's order, all their reactions were mechanized. The earth dragon arrow shot out frantically, and the black aura exploded layer by layer on the surface of the sea. It makes people feel cold to the bones, which is not an illusion, because on the surface of the sea, there are already fine pieces of ice ballast splashing with the waves.

On the first line of defense, a large number of soldiers from the Early Spring Country were arranged, and Su Jing originally just let them hone more, but he didn't really mean to treat them as cannon fodder. Cannon fodder troops, which can actually recruit mercenaries.

The cost of a mercenary is much cheaper than that of a self-trained soldier. Of course, the combat effectiveness is not very good, but when attacking the kingdom of evil gods, mercenaries cannot betray, and those who have attacked the people of the gods are blasphemers. The countries of the South China Sea have very large populations. Hire some mercenaries to take them away, and the soldiers of the early spring country can also be used as the main force.

The undead came fiercely, Su Jing had a headache, if he didn't resist it, let the undead go ashore, it would not be so easy to shoot. However, if you stick to the front, the soldiers of the early spring country will suffer a lot of casualties.

Tzu is not in charge of the army. It was at this moment that he truly understood the meaning of this sentence.

Su Jing glanced at the Tower of Babel in the distance, and still made up his mind, the souls of the dead can enter the Shura Field, and the souls of these soldiers have the imprint of their own army, even after death, it is extremely easy to distinguish.

Enter the Shura Field. Purification can already be obtained, one day. Become an immortal by yourself and bring it to the Shura Field, these people can be reincarnated in the immortal world.

There is no such ability in the human world, no matter how powerful the Jindan is, even if it can kill the immortal Jindan, it is impossible for the soul to be reincarnated directly. Even their own souls. It will also dissipate with death.

One day, if I become an immortal, I will give you a new life.

Su Jing silently made an oath, very solemn. In the next battle, it is impossible not to have too many casualties. The number of undead that the opponent can summon. I'm afraid it's not two or three million that I calculated, but more than ten million.

The worst thing is that there will be a large number of undead in the foundation building realm, the empire is so powerful, the qi refiners of the foundation building realm can only be assigned to a small team, that is still the elite of the elite, each family, there is only such a force, and the number is tens of thousands.

Ordinary army, according to the current standard, in a battalion of 5,000 people, an average of 200 people can be assigned a Qi Refiner of the Foundation Building Realm. In the entire battalion, there will be some surplus Qi Refiners, as a supplementary means, they will not go to the battlefield, unless there are Qi Refiners who die in battle.

On the seaside, the conflict immediately became fierce, Su Jing did not arrange a puppet on the beach, there were few puppets in the first place, and the survivability was not high, and if it was placed on the beach, it would die quickly.

The line of defense is not set up against the sea, but at a distance of 100 feet from the sea. The range of the earth dragon arrow is quite far, but the ordinary chain heavy crossbow, that is, the killing range of two hundred zhang, although five hundred zhang is the theoretical limit, but in the face of the undead, it is just an ordinary penetrating wound, or shoot one or two bones, for the undead, it is of little significance.

The power of the chain of heavy crossbows will not be manifested until the undead wash up on the beach.

Dozens of soul cannons were temporarily placed to shoot the fish that slipped through the net. But there are still a large number of undead who have washed up on the beach. Among these undead, there were archers with four arms, and after rushing to the beach, they began to launch long-range strikes at Su Jing's position.

The distance of a hundred zhang is equivalent to about two hundred and fifty meters, and the range limit of the undead archers is about three hundred meters away, and even so, there are casualties on the position immediately.

A soldier was accidentally hit by a bone arrow and bruised his arm, he didn't care, but continued to add arrows and fought bravely, but by the time the qi refiner found out, it was too late, he shook a few times behind the heavy crossbow and fell to the ground, his armor made a click and cracked, as if it had been rotten by acid for hundreds of years, and in the blink of an eye, it was full of holes.

What a ferocious poison of the undead!

Su Jing couldn't prescribe the right medicine, so he could only let the qi refiner release the talisman to dispel the poisonous gas. It's just a dispel type of Dao technique, if there is no targeting, the effect will drop significantly.

It's not a game, you can start over when you die, or even come back to life in place. When tens of thousands of undead washed up on the beach, Su Jing could only order the crossbowmen of the first line of defense to retreat.

There is no way, it seems that there are only more than 30,000 undead, but these more than 30,000 undead have already approached a distance of fifty meters, and if they get closer, a burst of sprint will kill the crossbowmen.

No matter how good Su Jing's crossbow is, it only shoots seven or eight rounds, and it can't kill many undead.

The power of the dragon arrows is greater, the problem is that the rate of fire is not enough, otherwise, as long as this thing is fired intensively, there will be no strategy in the war.

The spearmen in the back row went up hard, there was no heavy infantry around them to protect them, and the only thing they could rely on was the spears in their hands and a pair of boots on their feet.

Su Jing prepared an accelerated paper talisman on the boots of these spearmen, and when the order to retreat was given, this thing made the speed of the spearmen increase by five or six times.

As long as you escape two thousand meters away within a certain period of time, it is the second line of defense.

The hearts of the gunners collapsed, in their opinion, the first line of defense would definitely be able to block all the enemy, so what kind of army could rush to the shore with such a dense fire strike?

The dense undead creatures, when they arrived on land, their speed suddenly slowed down, this is the amount of power they got in the teleportation disappeared, and the powerful speed is also limited by time, otherwise as long as they rely on their speed, the undead army can defeat all human armies.

It's a tireless thing in itself, and with absolute speed and strength, is it still alive?

The crossbowmen quickly dismantled the Earth Dragon Arrow and the Chain Heavy Crossbow, strapped the disassembled weapon on their backs, and retreated to the rear line of defense.

Directly in front of the defensive line were three obstacles piled up with dirt. When the undead in the first row approached, they immediately rushed out of the dirt with metal thorns one by one, at an angle of forty-five degrees, and they pierced the undead in a row of undead very sadly.

This is the Dao technique inspired by the paper rune, and when these undead are killed, the metal thorns will disappear with it.

The speed of the undead was suddenly reduced by half by the three rows of low mounds of dirt, and the spearmen stubbornly moved forward. They didn't dare to flee, military law was ruthless, and on the chariots on both sides, there were more powerful crossbow arrows that could shoot the undead or them. On these chariots, they are all sharpshooters, and whoever escapes will shoot them.

It's even worse to surrender, you surrender to the undead? Then you have to die first.

The spearman moved forward, the spear stabbed out mechanically, and the Qi Refiner who did not retreat threw dozens of paper talismans forward, and the golden light of the Dao Dao in the air was connected together, forming a golden thunder net.

The net was not fixed, but swept forward. The undead who were hit by the lightning net stiffened even more. Their transfer speed slowed down again, and the spearmen's somewhat misguided attacks were all hit.

Two thousand spearmen, alternating stabbing attacks, in the blink of an eye, killed and wounded thousands of undead. These undead were hit by the Dao Thunder Method, and they still have a powerful restraint effect.

Su Jing was secretly happy in his heart, more than a hundred of those crossbowmen died, all of them were poisoned, and more than two hundred were injured, if it weren't for the timely rescue of the Qi Refiners, the more than two hundred crossbowmen would not have come back.

Su Jing noticed that because of the rescue of these qi refiners, the crossbowmen who withdrew from the defense line were not demoralized, but seemed calmer.

The Qi Refiners of the Early Spring Country would not help ordinary soldiers like them.

The Qi Refiners on the first line of defense have ten foundations and more than a hundred innate stages. When the crossbowmen were about to transport the equipment to the second line of defense, they received Su Jing's retreat order.

The Qi Refiners of the Foundation Building Realm are okay, but those Qi Refiners in the Innate Stage are already a little unbearable. In the innate realm, the true qi is not sufficient, even if they are all releasing paper talismans, the burden is also very great.

By the time the Scythe set foot on the beach, all the spearmen had already begun to retreat.

The Scythe Demon was quite powerful, moving extremely fast, and the chariot soldiers on both wings could barely suppress it, and there were even dozens of Scythe Demons, rushing to the vicinity of the chariot and being killed by the Qi Refiners in the foundation building period.

On this chariot, all of them are Su Jing's cronies, there is no innate stage Qi refiner, and the worst ones are all in the middle stage of foundation building. Leading them was a Jindan powerhouse recruited from the Su family.

It's just that this Jindan powerhouse is a little subtle, when Su Jing recruited him, he was only in the late stage of foundation building, and he did not reach his peak state, following Su Jing during this time, his strength was rising steadily, and after completely following Su Jing, he suddenly broke the realm and achieved Jindan.
