Chapter 2648 Phantom! Raid (2)
There are more and more demons on the city wall, but the soldiers guarding the city wall are unwilling to fade away.
A large number of soldiers guarded the periphery of the artillery and arrow towers, protecting the continuous long-range attacks.
As long as they can delay for a moment, they can let the artillery and archers do more damage to the demons.
Every minute and every second in the war is won with blood and life.
The roar of the brothers fighting in the ears, stepping on the stone slabs stained with the blood of their comrades in arms, the gunners forced themselves to ignore everything around them, and locked on to the target as quickly as possible to attack.
Except for the desert city, all the cities that fought against the demons did not suffer heavy losses, but without exception, when every city was destroyed, all the gunners were dead.
Everyone can retreat, only they can't.
Only they can stop the swarming demon army, and the artillery they master is the most lethal weapon to the demons.
They will not leave their positions until their last breath is exhausted.
The destruction of the city cannot stop them, only death can drive them back from their posts.
Long before the start of the war, all the gunners had been interviewed individually. Accepting this task meant death, without exception.
Anyone can go, only they can't.
However, none of the gunners will flee in battle, and their beliefs are engraved in their souls like a brand.
If the city is broken, people will die. This is the duty of the barren land gunner.
As long as they can attack one more shell, they can kill at least ten demon soldiers. They are the key to the war of attrition.
With our flesh and blood, cast barren endlessly.
No matter how perfect Shen Yanxiao's war of attrition plan is, the war will still ruthlessly take away many people's lives.
More and more demons invaded the city, and the city lord knew that it was time for them to retreat.
He looked up at the city wall, the heavily surrounded fort.
That was his son, he would die as a gunner, he knew it, but he didn't do anything to stop him.
He is the lord of the city, he belongs to the barren land, and his son also belongs to the barren land.
Once the large troops withdraw into the underground passage, that is when the soldiers stationed on the city wall will die for their country. The moment the underground passage is closed, the whole city will be blown into ruins by black powder.
"Everyone..." The city lord gritted his teeth and couldn't bear to say the word retreat. He knew that once the words were spoken, it would announce the death of his son.
"City Lord! There is a situation!"
The archers on the arrow tower discovered an anomaly on the battlefield.
Among the army of millions of demons, there was a sudden chaos.
The barren land has been fighting a war of attrition, and almost never fights with the enemy outside the city. However, the originally calm demon army suddenly broke out, and chaos broke out from the front of the camp.
Because the barren land has always adopted a defensive posture, the commander of the demons will always stand at the front of the camp and command the siege every time a battle is started. Now the chaos of the demon army has surprised everyone.
Hesitation is a bit far away, and the archers on the arrow tower can't find out what happened to the demons.
They could only see that the chaotic army of demons began to pack towards the front. Their goal was not only to attack the city, but something seemed to hold back their attack.
This containment gave the alliance army in the city a little time to breathe.
After the city lord learned of the situation, he immediately organized the soldiers in the city to fight back against the demons on the city wall.
