[671] Fear
On the sea surface of Qinglong Sea outside Weishan City, tonight is destined to be a lively and bloody night.
The scorched earth in Weishan City, and the ruins on the scorched earth, the corpses of demon souls that have long been unrecognizable, as well as the powder turned into human souls, all stimulated every ghost soldier of the Nine Shadows Kingdom who participated in the battle tonight, making them crazy, cruel, and dehumanized.
They were angry, they were roaring, they all had a desire to slaughter that needed to be vented.
And among these ghost soldiers, there are even seventeen or eighteen-year-old ghost age children. They had only been on the battlefield three or five times, and they had not killed as many ghosts as their hands and feet, but they were still angry with the veterans, crazy together, and poured out their desire to slaughter on the enemy.
War is such hysteria that it makes all people unrecognizable and no longer their original selves.
But in the underworld, war is the only way to peace. Negotiating with Emperor Xudu and the Northern Yin Dynasty, as well as other ghost kingdoms, will only seem naïve and sacrifice more ghosts than wars.
If Xiao Shizhu wants to create a better future, his hands must be covered with blood. And the ghost soldiers under his command must also be stained with blood if they want to enjoy a future without war.
Artillery roared, thunder and lightning roared, thick smoke billowed down, and the blue light of the moon was stained red by splashes of blood. In the pungent smoke and smell of blood, the Flying Thunder Vehicles and the Flying Sky Army of the Nine Shadows Kingdom, as well as the Air Cavalry, alternately covered each other, and surrounded the Sky Army and fought fiercely.
At the foot of the Firmament Army, the sawdust flew continuously in the explosion, and it caught fire again and again. Before they could set up many of the weapons on the Moon-Piercing Tree, they were torn apart from the fierce explosions and rising flames under the bombardment of the Nine Shadows Kingdom, and finally turned into broken boards and broken wood with fire, dragging a long tail of smoke and falling rapidly from the clouds.
As for these Celestial Troops on the Moon, if they die instantly in the explosion, they will be lucky even if they are torn apart by the shells. It's better than falling from a height of tens of miles into the sea and then knowing where life and death are unknown.
What's more, in order to ensure that not a single Sky Army could not live, Yu Rong had already transferred an army of sharks and boat ghosts, and hibernated in the sea below the war zone.
Those firmament soldiers who fell heavily into the sea were shattered by the meridian bones of their bodies when they crashed into the sea, and the moment they splashed high, they were already torn apart by the army of mermaids and boat ghosts in the dormant sea.
The night sky above the sea was spread red. Above the clouds, there was a red glow of fire, and the entire sky seemed to be ignited by flames.
Flesh and blood flew in the clouds, and artillery fire flickered. The shouting of the beak and the wasp did nothing at all. The Firmament Army was still in a panic, they were doing their best, dodging the cannonballs that roared down from the sky, and the dense sub-guns, and even the instinct to counterattack had been forgotten at this moment.
Although the Firmament Army is not weak in combat, in the underworld, like the Xuandi Army and the Xudu Army, it is one of the few ghost armies with extremely strong combat power. However, the three continents of the Northland, which have been stationed in the Netherworld Mansion for a long time, have not come out of the Northland for a long time, and they have all been somewhat sitting in a well and watching the sky, and they have long forgotten that there is a heaven outside the sky. Coupled with the ghost and god technology of the Netherworld, it has stagnated since the Emperor Xudu sat on the throne. Such a powerful firearm held by the ghost soldiers of the Nine Shadows Country, they had never seen it before.
As early as before Yu Rongchi came to the aid of Weishan City, the ghost soldiers of the Firmament Army who invaded Dongyi Continent were mostly frightened by the artillery of the Nine Shadows Kingdom.
In the eyes of the Firmament Army, the artillery of the Nine Shadows Kingdom is too fearful. Not only is it hugely powerful, it is easy to open mountains and pierce rocks, and the range is not short, it can be tens of miles away, or even dozens of miles away, and hit the target in the blink of an eye.
And the fire guns of the Nine Shadows Kingdom can have a range of one mile, or even longer. Moreover, the firearms of the Nine Shadows Kingdom have already been able to shoot both point-and-shoot and continuously. Whether it is the range or the rate of fire, it is by no means the one that the Firmament Army holds in the hands of those Plug* and iron sand, and it takes a long time to fight only a few hundred paces of shotguns.
The reinforcements of the Nine Shadows Army had not yet arrived, and Hei Wuchang and his ghost soldiers only used less than a hundred artillery pieces, and tens of thousands of troops caused the Firmament Army to suffer heavy casualties, and one of the ten in the Moon.
And the other party only paid the price of half a city, such a defeat not only made the Firmament Army afraid of the firearms in the hands of the Nine Shadow Army, spitting dazzling fire and gunsmoke, but also made them feel frustrated.
Now that Yu Rong is leading a large army, the Nine Shadows Army, which has sufficient troops and weapons, has begun to play the role of a slaughterer thoroughly. And the once invincible Firmament Army, and the Guanyuecha under their feet, who once dominated the vast sky of the Netherworld, were like unarmed children, only watching the cannonballs and guns slamming towards them.
The beak and the wasp shouted with all their might, and after a moment, they stopped when they found it useless.
Birdbeak soon discovered that although the ghost soldiers of the Nine Shadows Kingdom attacked fiercely and were like a flood frenzy, the size of the Firmament Army's Guanyuecha also gave them an advantage. Lined up for hundreds of miles, the Nine Shadows Army could not destroy all the Moonhouses in an instant, and the Nine Shadows Army, which could only attack from the outside to the inside, step by step, has not been able to hit near the flagship so far, but is only fighting with the left and right flanks and forwards of the Sky Army.
Since the Chinese army was not attacked violently, only occasionally artillery shells came from a distance, and the resulting losses were not large, the Chinese army of the Firmament Army still had the strength to counterattack.
It is better to die without resistance, than to fight to the end!
As soon as the thought arose, the wasp, who was also aware of this, vibrated the thin and transparent wings on his back, and flew towards the herald who was stunned not far away: "Flag language, the flag language of counterattack, with the flagship and the Chinese army as the main force, the whole army counterattacks, and destroys the enemy one by one." ”。
The wasp shouted loudly in the roaring explosion, and the wasp had already discovered that the Nine Ghost Army was fighting with thirteen ghost soldiers as a basic unit, which was just right to break through one by one.
When the herald heard this, he turned his head slowly, and with his eyes wide open, he looked at the wasp with a dull gaze mixed with great horror.
Explosions continued to explode all around, bringing up high flames and smoke rising in the night sky. There are also bloody pictures that shoot out of it and spray the blood and ghost flesh everywhere with Mars, which terrified the standard-bearer of the Sky Army.
The closer the wasp got to him, the clearer he could see. The Celestial Army's legs trembled like chaff, and the crotch was damp.
The Nine Shadow Army was eager to kill again, and the red eyes that had become fierce had already been deeply reflected in the mind of this Sky Army with the atrocities of the Nine Shadow Army.
Together with the terrifying pictures of the Firmament Army that were blown apart by the bombing, or the terrifying pictures of being torn apart by the sons of the Nine Shadows Kingdom, and the flesh and blood flying, they were all imprinted in the minds of this herald and lingered for a long time.
Even this herald, like the rest of the Sky Army, is a powerful ghost who kills people without blinking, but he is still stupid by the madness and cruelty of the Nine Shadows Army tonight.
He wanted to put an end to it all, to see such horrible images again. But the enemy had not yet reached the side of the flagship, only occasionally shells flew by mistake, and it was obviously impossible to rely on the enemy to kill himself, so as to gain relief.
In the flash of light, out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the flag he was holding in his trembling hand. At the top of the flag, the sharp ornament like an arrow is particularly dazzling tonight.
Just as the wasp was less than half a foot away from the herald, the herald suddenly laughed. The smile was stiff, but full of the joy of relief.
Wasp felt bad, widened his compound eyes with hundreds of small hexagonal eyes, and burst out with an incredible gaze, towards the herald who had already raised the command flag, and pressed the tip of the command flag against his Adam's apple.
The next second later, a cold light flashed, and the tip of the banner stabbed into the herald's throat without hesitation.
The herald with a frozen smile fell in front of the wasp, and the corner of his mouth overflowed with ghost blood during his convulsions. And his bleeding throat was still stuck in the command flag of the Firmament Army.
The herald's eyes stared at the night sky, but they never closed them.
He looked up at the night sky farther above, with faint starlight flickering rhythmically under the billowing smoke.
The wasp landed beside the herald, his trembling forefeet, trying to hold down the wound that was still bleeding, but when the forefoot touched the gushing demon blood, the herald's smile was gradually turning into blood-colored powder in the night wind.
The world fell silent.
The artillery fire ceased, and the gunfire died down. At this moment, the noise around the Firmament Army suddenly decreased.
When the Nine Shadows Army was in the midst of a fierce battle, they suddenly retreated together and retreated outside the attack range of the Firmament Army.
The Firmament Army was still flustered, and the panicked shouts never stopped, just like the fear in their hearts and the soaring flames on the Piercing Moon Chacha, but instead increased with the sudden retreat of the Nine Shadows Army.
None of the Firmament Army took the initiative to stand up and pursue the Nine Shadow Army, which was unusual, and it also made the Nine Shadow Army cautious and cautious in retreating, which seemed a little redundant.
In just a moment, the Nine Shadow Army's Flying Thunder Carts, Air Cavalry, and Flying Troops melted into the clouds in the dark night and disappeared.
There were also some panicked wasps who stood up, and together with the beak, turned their heads and looked in the direction where the Nine Ghost Army had disappeared.
These two battlefield generals knew that the Nine Shadows Army had completely gained the upper hand, and when they should have taken advantage of the victory to pursue, they suddenly retreated, and there must be some trap.
And go, the Firmament Army doesn't know what the Nine Shadows Army will do next?
The flames rushed to the sky, and both the wasp and the beak couldn't help frowning, and a trace of nervousness passed through their hearts.
"What's that?" just as the tension in the hearts of the beak and wasp had not subsided, a ghost soldier beside him suddenly trembled and said.
When the two ghosts heard the sound, they looked at the ghost soldier, and saw this ghost soldier with wide eyes and a cold sweat oozing from his face, like most of the other ghost soldiers, they all raised their heads and looked at the sky above their heads. In the flames that lit up on the deck of Guanyuecha, the red light that burst out was full of fear in the eyes and faces of these ghost soldiers.
The beak and the wasp also slowly raised their heads after a pause. When they looked up at the sky, they also quickly showed a look of fear.
They all saw that above them, above their heads, several large ships that could fly on the edge of the firelight appeared on the ground.
Like the Moon, it is a vehicle that can soar in the air and ride the wind.
These big ships lined up above the heads of the Firmament Army, casting shadows that were enough to almost envelop the Firmament Army below.
That was the Immortal Cha of the Nine Shadows Kingdom.
Immediately on the left and right were countless Nine Shadow Kingdom Flying Thunder Vehicles. But unlike the previous Flying Thunder Car, the Flying Thunder Car that was volleying above the Firmament Army's head at this time was much larger.
