Chapter 83: Chapter 83 - Level the Ground!_1

The skies were gloomy, clouds gathered darkly. A fierce storm seemed imminent. Chu Yuan stood on the city wall of Nan County's border outpost. At this point, millions of soldiers had already left the city, teeming together towards Dawu's Daqian Xiong Pass. Daqian Xiong Pass was like Dawu itself, located between two colossal mountains with only a dozen or so miles of defensive line, yet built incredibly strong. Countless soldiers stood atop it, various siege equipment glistening coldly, akin to a great maw awaiting Dawu's attack. The arrangements for the offensive were led by Lu Qianfu. Dawu's most elite were undoubtedly the 120,000 Divine Warriors Brigade, and so they stood at the forefront, ready to be the first to charge in after flattening Daqian Xiong Pass. source-at-MVLeMpYr Behind the Divine Warriors Brigade stood eight million beastly soldiers and five million Death Penitentiary soldiers. Following the five million Death Penitentiary soldiers were two large armies on the left and right wings. This arrangement was quite clever. Once the Divine Warriors Brigade charged into the city, they would surely be unstoppable. The sight of this would boost the morale of Death Penitentiary, and the left and right wing armies could suppress the relatively chaotic Death Penitentiary. "Attention! Dawu is about to attack!" At Daqian Xiong Pass, General Da Zhi saw Dawu's soldiers emerging in waves, his face grave. "Sieging a city relies not solely on overwhelming numbers. Look; the two sides are both fortified passes. They might have millions of troops, but they have limited space to deploy, with less than ten miles to accommodate their attacks. It's as if they are squeezed together. If they falter, it will result in a stampede." "We are all inside the city, resting and waiting. Once the city siege equipment sets up its defense, their cramped formation will undoubtedly suffer massive casualties," the Warlord said relaxedly. "The Warlord speaks wisely." The people on the city wall conversed casually until suddenly, their gaze intensified when they spotted hundreds of thousands of soldiers in black armor at the forefront of the army, holding the banner of the Divine Warriors. Immediately someone exclaimed, "This is Dawu's Divine Warriors Brigade!" "What a terrifying aura!" At this distance, the Warlord couldn't discern the level of the Divine Warriors Brigade. But from what he sensed, the aura of these hundred-thousands made a singular and formidable force, fierce enough to wipe out all kinds of evils and monsters. He had the feeling that even he would be defeated if surrounded by this unit. "But sieging a city relies not only on one brigade!" The Warlord was very confident in the defenses of the pass. "Dawu is preparing to siege the city!" The army advanced like clouds, and with the Warlord's formidable ability, he took in the entire battlefield in one sight, then immediately raised his arm. The entire pass seemed to be encapsulated by a thick eggshell. This was the city defensive formation that, once activated, would consume hundreds of thousands of magic crystals each day. In just ten minutes of bombardment, the city's defensive array that Dawu had built was completely destroyed. After ten more minutes of continuous firing, the towering stronghold was ignited by the war fire, and sections of the city wall began to collapse. "How can this be?" Lin Yu was stunned. He intended to hold out behind the city walls, to exhaust Chu Yuan. But he never expected that his plan would be shattered in just twenty minutes. What were the cannons on the opposite side made of, that made Dawu's stronghold as fragile as tofu, unable to withstand a single blow? He did not know, these two thousand magic cannons were truly ancient cannons, their power at its peak. If not for the deal Chu Yuan and Ji Fuling made, they could not have forged so many. The magic cannon is most formidable for its ability to breach cities. If not, Chu Yuan would not have been eager to start a war of destruction. After all, he had a weapon capable of breaching cities, and his own power was comparable to that of a Godlike figure, he wouldn't have kept patient. At this moment, Lu Qianfu never once halted the bombardment. For this war of extermination, Dawu brought all the magic crystals they had stored for decades, initiating a war with the strength of a whole nation. The plan this time was still similar to the one used against the Liuyun Sect, to completely level the stronghold with the magic cannons. Otherwise, with the stronghold standing firm, they didn't know how many warriors would die before they could take it down. Boom! The magic cannon, after an uninterrupted hour of firing, leaving the barrels red-hot, only stopped its bombardment after it had completely mowed down Dawu's border fortress. Looking forward, Dawu's stronghold, reinforced over five hundred years, had vanished, leaving only ruins and broken walls, completely exposed to the ten million army of Dawu, without the cover of a city. Lin Yu and the other experts were unable to stop the bombardment of the magic cannon, their own cannons mounted on the city walls were also completely destroyed. Thankfully, Lin Yu was not a fool. Knowing the power of the magic cannon, he had the soldiers retreat beyond its range in advance, then form a battle formation, thus averting a collapse. "Attack!" At this moment, Chu Yuan swung his hand, drawing the two thousand large cannons into the System Space. His eyes locked onto the front, his hand coming down like a guillotine. Wooo! Wooo! Wooo! The Dragon Roar horn sounded! Morale increased! Combat power increased! With Lu Qianfu taking the lead, the one hundred and twenty thousand Shenwu army charged, entering the city first!
