Chapter 718: The True Iron Legion
At the junction of Xining Kingdom, Xiliang Kingdom, Western Zhou Dynasty and Wei Dynasty, Han Yanqiu, the guardian of the north of West Kunlun, is standing on the top of the city and looking into the distance. This is the "Wutong City".
According to the telegram and the situation ahead, the first batch of troops from Dayang Group will arrive at noon today.
Standing on Wutong City, Han Yanqiu couldn't help but feel some ups and downs: more than five hundred years ago, he watched his parents being tortured to death by members of the Twelve Families. Five hundred years later, he came back with hatred.
Wutong City was originally a prosperous commercial city in the southwest of the Western Zhou Dynasty and bordered the Wei Dynasty. But now it is captured by the coalition forces. The defense lines of the Western Zhou and Wei dynasties also retreated a hundred miles to the east of Wutong City.
It's just that to the east of Wutong City, there is a natural moat. The high mountains and rivers coupled with a powerful defensive barrier block the pace of the coalition forces.
This natural moat has a famous name - Dragon's Field!
The name "Longzhiye" has two main meanings: one comes from a sentence, "Dragon fights in the wild, its blood is black and yellow"; the other is history. In the barbaric era, this is the land of dragons. Human beings paid a huge price, and it took thousands of years to kill all the dragons here.
However, as the land of dragons, it must be a treasure land; later, it became a huge cultivation base for elixir. This base has always been under the control of the Twelve Families. Mainly the Qinglong family, followed by the Qinglian family.
Because of this, the defense force here is exceptionally strong.
A month ago, the front of the strategic alliance had advanced here, but a month later, there was not much change here.
Han Yanqiu also tried to see if he could bypass this place directly, but the area of Dragon's Field is vast, covering thousands of miles. Such a wide range cannot be bypassed; even if it is barely bypassed, it will leave hidden dangers behind.
Fortunately, Dayang Group is here.
The first batch of Dayang Group's legions arrived at the outskirts of Wutong City directly on the temporarily built train tracks. The first batch of arrivals were Dayang Group's elite legions, numbering in the hundreds of thousands, and various war machines.
And the masters of the Dayang Group's transformation stage are flying in quickly, but because the speed of the second-generation thunder cannon is relatively slow, it will take a few days.
Han Yanqiu came to meet him, but he didn't want to be the first one to come down because he was an acquaintance—not so familiar, but at least he knew each other. Because, this Li Shu is the only female general of the Dayang Group, and also the only female general in the entire Fertile Earth Continent and the Tall Earth Continent, who was previously in charge of charity and other aspects.
Seeing Han Yanqiu in a daze, Li Shu smiled brightly, "Why, I saw surprise and disbelief in your eyes."
"Uh...haha, welcome, I'm just attracted by the general's heroic appearance."
"Hmph, you know how to say it." Let's talk, Li Shu waved to the rear, and the lower-level officers were naturally busy. The soldiers were the first to get out of the car, and none of the soldiers here was below the Nascent Soul stage.
All kinds of tanks, artillery, machine guns and other weapons were unloaded with a clatter. The soldiers at the scene, all of whom were above the Nascent Soul stage, directly used spells to hold various weapons and walked forward.
While Han Yanqiu sent someone to guide them, his eyes flicked back and forth on these weapons of the Dayang Group. "General Li, these weapons of Dayang Group seem to be not simple, they are extraordinary at first glance."
Li Shu nodded, with a little pride in his eyes: "These are all new technologies of Dayang Group, and they are all prepared for the Qinglong family."
"Oh...with all due respect, although these weapons are good, they are not particularly large in number. Isn't it... a bit reluctant to deal with the Qinglong family?"
Li Shu shook his head slightly: "We are only responsible for cleaning up the battlefield. The real war takes place at the level of the God Transformation. Wait a few days, and when the masters of the God Transformation Stage come over, Protector Han will understand.
Dayang Group has developed the second-generation Thunder Cannon, which has a maximum range of 210 kilometers! "
"210...kilometers?" Han Yanqiu was stunned by the number.
After so many battles, Han Yanqiu already has a good understanding of artillery. Especially the Thunder Cannon purchased from Dayang Group, its improved range is stable at a distance of 90 kilometers. Such a crazy cannon is of great help to the war.
With a distance of 90 kilometers, even if the enemy camps, they must set up a defensive enchantment. A wave of attacks from time to time can be a good blow to morale. In addition, under short-distance attacks, faster shells can even directly penetrate the most powerful defensive barrier.
One thing must be noted—with the development of technology, the artillery shells that Dayang Group originally researched, which can break the prohibition, have gradually become invalid. Others have also developed a new array structure, which can effectively defend against forbidden-breaking weapon attacks.
But for the Thunder Cannon, which relies entirely on brute force, there is no trick. It can only increase the strength and quantity of formation barriers, which invisibly increases the consumption of the enemy.
Moreover, the caliber of the first-generation Thunder cannon was as high as 460 mm, and it would be a no-man's land with one shot. After adopting the charge of golden explosive, the power of the shell is increased several times.
The shells with a range of 90 kilometers are already so powerful, how powerful will the shells with a range of 210 kilometers be?
Three days later, Han Yanqiu saw the second generation Thunder Cannon. That's really... a giant cannon!
In addition, Dayang Group's more than 3,300 Huashen masters are all armed to the teeth. Among them, there are 150 "metal men" with a height of 10 meters and 500 "metal men" with a height of 3 meters.
These metal people are shining with a dark, but slightly golden color, looking noble, dangerous, and extremely domineering.
When Han Yanqiu saw these metal giants for the first time, he was also shocked. Not only the shape, but more importantly, the madness of the Dayang Group, and the quality of these metal giants—all of them are top-notch spiritual treasures!
A small metal giant looks like two tons, and a large one is about 20 tons.
In the past, whose Lingbao could have such a weight? There are also weapons of war. But the quality of the magic weapon of war is not even rotten wood in front of these metal giants!
Murong Shan is the general who commands these metal giants, the second-generation thunder cannon, and more than 3,300 god-turning generals.
Compared to Li Shu, Murong Shan is serious. Not just serious, but serious. This time Murong Shan shouldered far more than ordinary people imagined.
What he undertakes is not just a simple victory or defeat, but also the future of Dayang Group, the rise of a world hegemon. If this battle is won, Dayang Group will become the pinnacle of the world, and Murong Shan will also be engraved in history. If you don't play well, maybe everything will be wiped out.
Not to mention, the total 'internal value' of all the strategic materials that the Dayang Group took out this time was more than 3 billion high-grade spirit stones. Those mechs, the brand new thunder cannon, etc., are all piled up with the best spiritual materials.
As for the market value... it has long been impossible to estimate. For example, the market value of mechs is probably more than ten times higher than the internal price of Dayang Group.
The current mecha is a pure magic product, but even so, a mecha needs more than 20,000 parts and components, and the total length of the formation pattern that needs to be carved is as high as 16,000 kilometers. This is a real collection of technologies, and its market value is immeasurable.
Murong Shan didn't quite understand Zhang Hao's fighter jets. But for the current mecha, Murong Shan really felt its strength.
At present, those who control mechas are all in the middle stage of transformation. Those in the late stage and peak stages of Transformation Gods have enough combat power in themselves; and their reactions to controlling mechas are almost the same as those in the middle stage.
As for those in the early stage of transforming into gods, they operate giant cannons, or provide cover for the battlefield, arrange formations, etc.
The 100,000 Legion led by Li Shu is mainly responsible for the finishing work.
This time the war will be a war in the stage of transforming gods!
Murong Shan spent half a day discussing the battle plan with Han Yanqiu, and then Murong Shan sent a telegram to the other party: Everyone, we are here. At sunset today, we will launch the attack!
Han Yanqiu was a little dazed: I said, before you attack, you still have to greet the enemy?
Murong Shan smiled without saying a word. For Dayang Group, this war is not only on the battlefield, but also on the consciousness.
Because this time Dayang Group and the Eastern Twelve Families are competing for the pinnacle of the world, or the 'leader of the world'. So the Dayang Group needs to fight an 'upright' war!
Every time the Dayang Group makes such a move, it is a mockery of the Twelve Family—rats hiding in the ground, Ben Meow is here!
Of course, Dayang Group is not a fool. In fact, such an aboveboard confrontation can greatly weaken the local advantages of the Twelve Families-in this case, they are openly challenging, and you have the nerve to fight guerrilla warfare?
Who fights guerrilla warfare?
In a weak position!
Therefore, the most reasonable way to deal with the Twelve Families is also an aboveboard confrontation.
Of course, by doing this, Dayang Group can fully exert its own steel strength. And if the Twelve Families resorted to sneak attacks, guerrilla warfare, etc., leading to Dayang Group's defeat, Dayang Group would have reason to say:
It's not that we don't work hard, but that so-and-so is too cunning.
Also, this is also a small inducement - all you masters hurry up. The first battle certainly did not understand our new technology. Then, we can take the opportunity to kill many enemy masters.
After that, Murong Shan personally inspected the battlefield situation. I also understand why the coalition forces will be blocked here in the Dragon's Field.
To the east of Wutong City, there is a sparkling lake scenery. Because of the unique terrain here, rivers and lakes are connected here to form a beautiful scenery.
But this beautiful scenery has an average width of about ten kilometers. The narrow part is five or six kilometers long, and the wide part exceeds twenty kilometers.
The rivers connect the lakes one by one like pearls. Formed a natural 'moat'.
But behind the river, there are strange peaks, and a mountain range rises from the ground. Those mountain ranges are like city walls towering from heaven and earth. The distance between the river and the mountain is about ten kilometers, and the overall posture is a steep rise.
In fact, Longzhiye also has an alias - Dragon City! A super giant city with thousands of miles of mountains and rivers as its belt!
Previously, the strategic alliance on the West Kunlun side also crossed the river, but on the other side of the river, they faced a steep and rising terrain. The enemy counterattacked on the top of the mountain in a leisurely manner-now the Western Zhou Dynasty and the Wei Dynasty also have powerful armies.
The average distance from the west bank of the river to the mountain peak is about 25 kilometers; the height of the mountain peak is at least three to five kilometers. When the shell hits this distance and height, its kinetic energy is already difficult to penetrate the defensive barrier. Therefore, the enemy can counterattack in a leisurely manner. Deal a devastating blow to enemies who cross the river.
There were even a lot of cannonballs whose sound speed was reduced, so that practitioners could catch them, and then destroyed them with flying swords, or used flying swords to turn the direction of the cannonballs. As long as the shell does not trigger the fuze, it will not explode.
And the entire Longzhiye had a radius of thousands of miles, and the terrain was so neat that it became a nail in the way of the coalition forces.
When the inspection came back, Murong Shan asked Han Yanqiu: "Did you try to dig a tunnel and plant explosives?"
Han Yanqiu sighed: "This trick is not easy to use now. Everyone has set up special personnel to be responsible for the underground situation. These personnel are familiar with earth escape or similar methods, and even supernatural powers."
"No wonder I haven't heard similar news recently."
As the sun was setting slowly, Han Yanqiu was still a little dazed, he still hadn't reacted to Murong Shan's 'brainless move' - how could he speak to the enemy before attacking!
But at this moment, the war led by Dayang Group really broke out.
Fifty thunder cannons landed in front of Wutong City, about 500 meters apart, lined up. The middle part was supplemented by the team led by Li Shu, and finally formed a 25-kilometer-long artillery front.
In particular, the fifty second-generation thunder cannons, with a barrel of 110 meters, are locked in the distance, and locked on the mountain peaks 25 kilometers away, or even 30 kilometers away.
Seen from the ground at this time, the setting sun had already set; but the mountain peak was facing the setting sun, and it was even a bit glaring! At this moment, Murong Shan gave the order to attack!
Each group of two cannons is aimed at the same position; one cannon fires solid shells, and the other fires high-explosive shells. HE projectile launch speed delayed by 2 seconds.
Super cannonballs with a diameter of 1.2 meters and a length of more than 9 meters were pushed into the barrel; 50 brand-new thunder cannons roared neatly, the sky and the earth trembled in the sound of the cannons, and more than ten flames spewed out from the 110-meter barrel Mi, the ground was illuminated for an instant. And the shells are no longer visible.
At this time, the speed of the shells exiting the chamber has exceeded 12 times the speed of sound, and even in the stage of transformation, it is impossible to capture objects at this speed. Only a very small number of those who are in the late stage and peak of the transformation of the gods can barely see a little black track passing by.
A few seconds later, ripples burst out from the top of the mountain in the distance. That is the ripple of the defensive enchantment. But at this time, this powerful defensive barrier was actually penetrated, and under the attack of high-explosive bombs, part of the barrier directly collapsed.
Almost at the same time, Li Shu gave an order: "Aim at the gap and cover the firepower!"
