Chapter 800: City Fall
"Surrender and no killing!" A uniform roar full of mechanical metal smell rang out.
Many defeated soldiers immediately threw away their weapons and squatted on the ground. The mechanical army did not open fire. They raised their mechanical legs and lined up in a neat team to approach the defeated army. Those who escaped ran away. Now there are only more than a thousand people left. It was not until the mechanical army approached these surviving soldiers that they found that the opponent was fully armed with armor. How to fight such an army? Suddenly, some people began to squat on the ground and cursed the prince for offending some powerful people.
The mechanical army ignored the surrendered soldiers and directly passed by the side to the city gate. It stopped when it was 800 meters away from the city gate.
The originally neat footsteps stopped and disappeared again. Only the howling and sobbing of the wounded soldiers could be heard on the deserted battlefield. The deputy general who was forced to stay didn't know whether he should continue to fight. There were 40,000 people left in the city. Maybe... it could really defeat this weird army.
Behind the city wall, dozens of catapults have been prepared and even huge stones have been put on them. They can be fired as long as they are ordered!
The deputy general did not want to use the trebuchet, but the mechanical army could not throw it at all from 800 meters away from the city wall. The heavy crossbow was not very effective at this distance. The deputy general could only wait anxiously, waiting for the mechanical army to get close enough to attack.
In the mechanical army, more than a hundred soldiers appeared in front and quickly assembled some kind of machinery, which was a rocket launcher. Rockets were launched using equipment similar to rails. The rail structure was assembled. A group of ten combat robots quickly assembled the launcher, and then adjusted it to the city gate and the city wall. According to the battlefield image sent back by the drone, each trebuchet was aimed at. After installation, the combat robot carrying the rocket installed the rocket into the rail.
There was no other way. There were no tanks, no artillery, and no helicopters. A group of infantry could only use this method to ensure zero casualties.
Ignite! Fire!
Teng Teng Teng...! Ten rockets were fired, and the rockets with white smoke traces drew a large arc and turned to the back of the city wall. The rockets popped out small tail wings and began to control the landing point. The cross squares on the video screens of each rocket locked each trebuchet and fell straight down!
The rumbling sound of explosions was heard behind the city wall, and flames rose. The second batch of rockets was launched again, targeting the city gate and the remaining catapults.
The heavy city gate exploded, and the wood chips and ironware were blown to pieces in the flying. The deputy general on the city wall knew that the city could not be defended. Not to mention these terrible and explosive monsters, even if the soldiers had not fallen down so far, how could they fight? After thinking about it, he didn't dare to go back to the prince anyway, so he simply called out and led the remaining generals and troops to the other side of the city gate.
The front row of mechanical soldiers fired again, and the archers and heavy crossbow operators on the city wall were shot and killed, and the main threats were all removed.
"Install the bayonet!" A high-end mechanical soldier shouted.
Swish! Click! The sound of the bayonet being pulled out in unison and the sound of the collision installed at the muzzle, the mechanical soldiers looked at the city wall coldly, and they were about to launch a charge but didn't care at all. The robots achieved the highest standard of military quality.
"All-out attack!"
The mechanical army moved, some rushed to the city gate and more rushed to the city wall. A row of combat robots in the back raised their guns and aimed at the city wall to cover the friendly actions. The originally smooth city wall was now covered with combat robots like spiders. The mechanical hands and feet pierced into the cracks of the brick wall and climbed up. Looking from a distance, people had goose bumps all over their bodies.
There were also soldiers on the city wall who didn't have time to escape. Seeing so many monsters climbing up, they quickly raised rolling stones and prepared to throw them down. Before they could exert force, the mechanical soldiers responsible for covering below opened fire. The bullets penetrated these resisting soldiers. When they fell down, they were hit by the high-raised rolling stones and didn't have time to throw even a rolling stone.
A human soldier hiding on the city wall suddenly saw a gray-black monster hand appear on the battlement of the city wall. It was the combat robot that climbed up outside. He pushed hard with both hands and directly climbed up the city wall. He stabbed the bayonet and fired at the muzzle. In just a few seconds, he cleared a safe area!
Densely packed combat robots climbed up the city wall, and the city gates continued to pour in. The human soldiers who were originally blocking the city gates and fighting desperately saw a group of tall gray-black monsters rushing in. The swords could not cut and the spears could not penetrate. The strange things in their hands flashed with fire and then some people fell down. Many frightened soldiers shouted witchcraft and fled in pieces. The city gates and walls were lost.
The scattered human soldiers found one thing, either they were killed by those monsters, or they threw away their weapons and squatted on the ground to surrender and survive. No one wanted to die if they could live. More and more soldiers began to throw away their weapons and surrender.
The mechanical soldiers rushed into the streets and alleys in teams. All the surrendered soldiers were ignored and their weapons were not taken away. All those who resisted were shot and killed. Unexpectedly, the battle prepared for half a day turned into a street fight. This was a result that neither the high-end mechanical soldiers nor the warlord generals had expected. It was really that the other generals ran too fast and had no time to react. Those generals were bought with money, right?
The high-end mechanical soldiers and high-altitude drones guessed correctly that the main generals really bought their official positions with money. Most of the generals usually spend their time drinking and partying in the city and have no idea how to march and fight. When something happens, they run faster than anyone else, but unfortunately they let their soldiers down.
Teams of ten mechanical soldiers kept running on the street, and many human soldiers squatted on the roadside, lying there carelessly, eating dry food and chatting.
"Uncle Niu, who do you think these people are? They are wearing black clothes, and the stones are broken when they step on them." A bored soldier looking at the road found something unusual. The soldier was about sixteen or seventeen years old and wore a tattered military uniform. Not far in front of him was a long spear with a shiny wooden pole. He was not tall and had fluff on his mouth.
"What do you know, little brat? I've heard that those people are called the Black Armor Army! Haven't you heard of it? I also heard it from the storyteller in the teahouse at that time. The Black Armor Army is nine feet tall and strong! Wearing black black armor, they are invincible! One knife can smash the heads of more than a dozen people! You'd better be careful~" An old soldier who was drinking next to him said nonsense.
The soldier showed envy and was completely fooled by the old soldier.
Bang bang bang...! The sound of neat footsteps sounded, and a team of ten combat robots ran by neatly.
"Okay, okay, stop talking nonsense, you old bastard. What black armor army? These are heavenly soldiers and generals! You didn't know that you weren't on the city wall at that time. These soldiers pointed bronze mirrors at General Liu's army. Guess what? They were rows of dead people! So scary!"
A soldier who had just come down from the city wall couldn't help but stop the old soldier's nonsense.
"Tsk~ I won't argue with you. There are no heavenly soldiers and generals." The old soldier turned over and continued to drink.
Both sides of the street were full of human soldiers squatting or lying. It was so good that they didn't have to die or run around to rest. They boasted to each other when they had nothing to do. Anyway, they didn't know how many days they could live and have fun in this chaotic world. However, the soldiers were more curious about these enemy troops who attacked. Some said they had red eyes, and some said they could cast witchcraft...
