Chapter 312 The Explosion of Armed Forces
The sudden burst of artillery attack made Xiao Liming frown. It was very embarrassing for Beichen Yuqing to choose the distance for shelling. The current distance is about 7 miles. This distance is the coverage area of Anyang's artillery, but it exceeds the attack distance of Xiao Liming's artillery.
"It's annoying and hateful!" Xiao Liming smashed his palm in resentment. All the artillery and other ammunition sold by Li Xian to the outside world have shrunk, and the shrinkage has been serious. For example, the artillery sold by Anyang has an attack distance of only two or three miles, or three or four miles; while the artillery used by Anyang itself has an attack distance of several times.
"I heard that the artillery on the ironclad ship has an attack range of nearly 20 miles!" Xiao Liming frowned as he watched the gunpowder smoke constantly exploding in front of him.
However, compared to the 200,000 army, the number of artillery pieces is small after all, and because of the defensive method, Xiao Liming's 200,000 army did not lose much. After losing about three or four thousand people, the forward of the army finally rushed to about two miles in front of the Anyang border defense.
The magic spell fell, and the defense system began to be built, and Xiao Liming began to deploy artillery.
But at this moment, hundreds of machine guns suddenly appeared on the top of Anyang City. These crazy machine guns were just able to hit the defense of Xiao Liming's army. The crazy machine guns could tear apart all defenses, whether it was defenses or soldiers Torn to shreds. The tragic scene made the soldiers in the rear hesitate.
"At this moment!" Beichen Yuqing ordered again, "The plane took off, opened the way with machine guns, and launched a concentrated carpet bombing."
Amidst the sound of rumbling artillery fire, five hundred planes that had been prepared for a long time rushed out, and the sky and the earth went dark for an instant. Five hundred planes rushed out, Xiao Liming gasped. But Xiao Liming was not defenseless, hundreds of Jindan stage masters flew out suddenly.
Five hundred planes are five hundred killing machines. The combination of machine guns and bombs is naturally terrifying; but planes are also vulnerable! Xiao Liming's hundreds of Ming Jindan stage masters are enough to easily kill 500 planes.
But how could Anyang be unprepared? Seeing that there were hundreds of Golden Core Stage experts flying out from Xiao Liming's side, five hundred figures immediately appeared on the plane, five hundred Golden Core Stage experts, and five hundred fully armed Golden Core Stage experts. master. As if afraid that others would not know, when the five hundred masters of the Jindan period in Anyang appeared on the stage, their bodies were full of precious light, and their magic weapons gleamed.
"Trap!" Xiao Liming narrowed his eyes.
The flying sword flew out, and Xiao Liming's one hundred Golden Core stage master only had time to let out a few screams before being cut into the dust. With or without magic weapon, the performance is not obvious in the Qi refining stage, but after the Jindan stage, the gap is very obvious. The collision between the magic weapon and the magic weapon is like the collision between a steel knife and a wooden knife.
Seeing the two hundred bodies falling into the dust like dead wood, Xiao Liming was momentarily stunned. Those are hundreds of Golden Core stage masters, those are Golden Core stage masters, and they are one of the most important forces in Xiao Liming's hands!
After this delay, the five hundred planes finally started killing; without the threat of the Jindan stage masters, the planes were pure killing machines. Industry has "standardized" killing. Machine gun fire, shell bombing, Xiao Liming's defense against shells has completely failed.
"Withdraw!" Xiao Liming finally made a decision. After another stalemate, Xiao Liming was finally able to withdraw his troops. But after the army retreated, Xiao Liming gasped as soon as the count was reported. In this brief confrontation, only 180,000 of the 200,000 troops remained.
In an hour-long battle, 20,000 troops were lost!
Although Xiao Liming already knew that arms had brought about new changes in the war, he was still a little terrified after experiencing it himself. There are 20,000 troops in more than an hour. If it takes one day to fight, the 200,000 troops will have to pay for it all!
The army retreated slowly, and the army, which experienced such a tragic war for the first time, was also panicked. The sudden changes in the war situation made Xiao Liming's elite soldiers at a loss as to what to do.
On the border defense of Anyang, Beichen Yuqing didn't move a step from the beginning to the end, just watched Xiao Liming's army come, and watched Xiao Liming's army retreat like this.
"Marshal." Beichen Yuqing's personal soldiers reminded him cautiously—it was time to pursue.
Beichen Yuqing did not pursue, but quietly watched Xiao Liming's army leave. After a long time, Beichen Yuqing slowly turned his head to look north. The war in the north is about to break out! Then he looked at the soldiers who were eager to fight, and sighed slightly: "It's a troubled time, don't worry about not having military achievements, just wait, more intense wars are coming one after another!"
Beichen Yuqing's tone was a little heavy, the chaotic situation had intensified; Jin was drawn into the battle by Nanyang County, and Cai had already joined the battle; now Anyang was about to make an alliance with Dragon Palace and get involved in the Dragon Palace's grievances.
Can the little Anyang get a rich future from the grievances of the Dragon Palace?
Beichen Yuqing turned around, saw the dilapidated battlefield again, and suddenly sighed, "Burn all the corpses into the ground for safety. Is it sad or heroic to die on the battlefield?"
…………
Anyang, the "Adventure and Mercenary Association" is very lively. In just a few days, the number of registered adventurers has reached 100,000, and more than 800 large and small mercenary groups have appeared. In the mercenary group, there are both large numbers and powerful ones.
But today, the Adventure and Mercenary Association released new missions and information.
The first is information, the portable Lingtong Baojian is officially on sale, but there are conditions.
First, you must have talents from Anyang.
Second, it must be the head of a mercenary regiment or the head of a caravan owner.
Third, a person can only buy it once in a lifetime; if you upgrade, you need to trade in the old for the new.
Fourth, the distress message sent by Lingtong Baojian will automatically be conveyed to Lingtong Baojian within a hundred miles. All buyers must swear that as long as they receive the distress message, they must do their best.
Finally, the note: Lingtong Baojian is the only item in the association that can be purchased with points or completely with gold.
"Is it just these four conditions? It's too simple, come one!" A mercenary regiment leader formed three minutes ago blocked in front of the counter.
The pretty waiter smiled beautifully: "Lingtong Baojian is divided into three levels, 10 kilometers communication range, 50 kilometers communication range and 100 kilometers communication range, which one do you want?"
"Of course it's 100 kilometers." The head of the team who just took office shouted.
"Thank you for your patronage, please swear first."
"It's easy to say, easy to say. I swear now." Xin Xin's head swore to the sky.
The waiter smiled immediately, and took out a one-foot-sized wooden box, "Hello, there is an instruction manual in the box for the specific method of use. In addition, the Lingtong Baojian with a communication range of 100 kilometers is a low-level magic weapon, worth a million taels Gold, thank you for your patronage."
"What?!" The new leader was stunned, million? gold? Wiping off his cold sweat, he whispered, "What about the 10 kilometers?"
The waiter still smiled very warmly: "The 10-kilometer one belongs to the level of ordinary magical artifacts and is worth 10,000 taels of gold. You can pay in installments. The minimum monthly payment is 10 taels of gold, with an annual interest of 5%. A down payment of 10 taels of gold is fine."
"Then...then...I want this. The communication range of 10 kilometers is enough."
Immediately after the leader left, someone behind couldn't wait, "How much does the 50-kilometer communication cost?"
"Hello, five hundred thousand taels of gold."
"Is an installment purchase possible?"
The waiter still smiled: "Yes, but you must be a registered businessman in Anyang, and have an estimated asset of more than one million taels of gold."
The visitor frowned, "What else?"
The waiter suddenly stopped smiling, with a serious expression on his face: "Then it can only be paid in one lump sum, and no credit will be accepted. The low-level Lingtong Baojian is a benefit for ordinary adventurers and mercenaries, while the intermediate and advanced Lingtong Baojian must be purchased. strict control."
The visitor did not give up, "But the communication range of ten miles is not enough at all, and the communication range of a hundred miles is barely enough."
The waiter sneered: "In the past, there was no communication, so everyone couldn't survive. Fellow Taoist, please note that this is Anyang, and remind you to pay attention to the law. So far, no one who violated the laws of Anyang has escaped punishment."
The visitor frowned, and finally made a decision: "Then I will pay in one lump sum to buy a high-level Lingtong Baojian."
The waiter immediately smiled again, smiling beautifully, "Please swear, please tell me your name information, and swear that your information is correct and complete. If there is something that needs to be kept secret, we can go to the secret room to swear alone. Anyang will Absolutely confidential."
"Do you still want to tell me your name information?" The visitor frowned again.
"Yes, you can't sell such a treasure to the enemy."
The visitor frowned, finally snorted coldly, turned and left. But the waiter operated on the table with both hands a few times, recorded the figure of the previous person, etc., and then sent it to the information database for storage. Those who can work as waiters here are the real core personnel of Anyang, and they must be able to operate the computer that has just begun to be finalized.
This small change did not affect the Adventurer and Mercenary Association. This kind of thing happened almost every day. It just made the adventurers around, and even some Anyang people who came here to watch the excitement laugh.
While queuing up, there was another noise from behind, "A new mission has appeared, and a new mission issued by Anyang Mansion has appeared. Come and see."
When everyone turned their heads, they found new words on the wall (display) next to them:
First: permanent mission: find out the spies in Anyang, etc., with generous rewards;
Second: Temporary general tasks: beheading, to be precise, the heads of the invaders who invaded the territory of Anyang from Cai Guo's army, the rewards are also generous.
However, some people didn't care about the official information here, but paid attention to the tasks next to them-there were privately released tasks. Compared with Anyang's official missions, these private missions are varied, and the rewards are also varied. In just a few days, Anyang has accepted the existence of the "Adventure and Mercenary Association".
A regiment leader stands in front of private missions and screens the missions:
Find the missing pet dog, with half-demon blood, reward 10 taels of gold. One star mission. Details are as follows……
Looking for fire attribute demon core, golden core level, reward 360,000 taels of gold, three-star mission, the details are as follows...
"Looking for the fire attribute demon pill, this task is not bad, I... I dare not! How could it be so fast!"
At this moment, the color of the task changed, and the word "Complete" appeared behind it.
