“Get ready! Attack!!”

The soldiers began to march toward the valley . The anthropoids roared and charged out . They were the lowest level anthropoids, so they weren’t much of a threat to us .

After getting Leah’s confirmation, I ensured that we wouldn’t face a strong defence when we attacked .

Although the anthropoids had united, they were still trying to avoid losing too much of their forces . I didn’t think I’d run into a particularly strong defence if I didn’t force an attack on the walls .

“Raise your guns!! Aim!!”

The soldiers lined up in a shooting formation as they observed the approaching anthropoids . Our line shooting formation was the best formation to counter their charge that lacked a formation . The anthropoids howled as they entered our best shooting range we came up with after conducting research .

“Fire!!”

The barrage of bullets destroyed the anthropoids’ formation . The bullets we were now using were bullets blessed by the elves Mommy Vyvyan’s personal explosion magic, no less . A nip would be enough for the bullet to blow off a section of their body, so if they hit the enemy’s chest, half of their body would explode . If they hit their belly, their intestines would explode .

Therefore, after the first row fired, the anthropoids at the front were reduced to a swamp of blood . The blood that exploded into the air virtually formed a mist that air couldn’t pa.s.s through . The anthropoids in the rear were covered in their comrades’ blood and flesh .

A piece of an organ of some sort hit the White Deer King’s face . That angered the White Deer King . It almost wanted to run over with me to them to give the anthropoids a piece of its mind .

After the first row finished firing, they’d quickly retreat . The second row would immediately follow up, then the third, then the fourth and finally the fifth row .

After the fourth row, the air was covered in smoke and an irritating stench of blood . The corpses in front of the soldiers had formed a swamp that appeared almost impossible to cross . The snow on the ground was melted by the blood, so it was a pool of blood . The anthropoids in the rear stomped on their comrades dismembered corpses and trudged through the swamp of blood to charge toward us .

Yes, we were left with only one last row of soldiers .

*Bang! Bang! Bang!!*

The fifth row, which was the last row of soldiers, used repet.i.tive firing rifles . They used rifles with the exact same specifications my guards used . I couldn’t produce enough for everyone to have one rifle each, but it was enough for the last row of soldiers . Within an instant the horde of anthropoids was bathed in their own blood just as the previous rows did . Not one of the anthropoids was able to reach our lines when faced with our shooting formation .

Within an instant the horde of anthropoids was bathed in their own blood just as the previous rows did . Not one of the anthropoids was able to reach our lines when faced with our shooting formation .

After the fifth row emptied their bullets, they continued to retreat, while the first row immediately took over again and began firing after reloading . We gradually retreated from the valley by following that sequence .

We left a field of anthropoid corpses behind . Those anthropoids didn’t have any concept of fear . Being killed and bathed with blood only stimulated them, causing them to grow even wilder . They roared as they charged toward us .

They even charged out of the valley, chasing us out of the valley they were defending . I had no idea who their commander was, but I knew it wasn’t the warrior Marvel was . If Marvel was in his skin, he wouldn’t let these anthropoids charge out of the valley .

Of course, I think it was safe to a.s.sume that the purpose of the anthropoids was to cause me to expend all our bullets .

*Horns!!*

After I nodded, the soldier responsible for delivering commands next to me blew the horn . The soldiers in front immediately retreated upon hearing the signal . The anthropoids, who saw us retreating ,started to cry with excitement and began to charge toward us in a staggering fas.h.i.+on .

‘My soldiers have indeed retreated, but that doesn’t mean that you can charge over . ’

‘My soldiers have indeed retreated, but that doesn’t mean that you can charge over . ’

A deafening cannon went off from behind . The cannonball landed in the closely huddled horde of anthropoids . My cannons were aimed accurately at the exit of the valley . Just because I couldn’t enter and attack, it didn’t mean that I couldn’t defend against the enemy’s large-scale charge . If they had their huge birds around to hara.s.s us, then maybe they’d get us, but the anthropoids currently on the field would only be blasted to pieces by my cannons . The rain of cannonb.a.l.l.s flew into their formation . I felt that my artillerymen must’ve been delighted, because a horde of anthropoids who didn’t flee were the best opportunity for them to accomplish military achievements . It was essentially an opportunity to ama.s.s a kill count .

After the cannons did their job, the cavalry with breastplate armour charged over . Their charge left the Earth quaking, which meant that the heavy cavalry were charging toward the anthropoids who had sustained severe damage . They destroyed head after head, while the horses stomped on corpses that had been blasted to pieces, kicking up blood and flesh . Their bright copper armour was filthy with the enemies’ blood . Some of them even lost their grip on their sabres, because the blood their sabre handles got soaked in, made it too slippery .

“That’s it . That’s it! Stop the pursuit! Don’t enter the valley!!”

The officers called for the soldiers covered in blood to retreat . I looked into the valley . There was still a field of corpses there . I didn’t say anything . These losses were insignificant to the anthropoids . It didn’t advance any strategy of ours, either . It just raised our soldiers’ morale .

I had to acknowledge that we hadn’t been hara.s.sed by any huge birds after Leah spoke to me about them . There would be an occasional one or two attacks, but unlike before where it was akin to a flood of them diving in at us . They fled as soon as we fired a shot . That’s why I took the opportunity to strike once .

Of course, I didn’t actually do it with the sole aim of raising morale . I wasn’t going to completely enter the valley . It wasn’t wise to initiate an attack when the enemy was fighting with each other internally . I had let their conflict worsen to the point that they began to plot against each other when they were supposed to be at peace with each other . Needless to say, that didn’t mean I was just going to kick back and enjoy myself .

I looked up to the top of the snowy mountain . I watched the soldiers who were taking advantage of the noise and cover of smoke on the battlefield to set up bars and ropes . I watched them stick long spikes into the snow and fix ropes into place .

That was my true goal .

That was my true goal .

Why did I attack? It was to s.h.i.+ft the anthropoids’ attention to me to distract them . The anthropoids might figure out what we were up to if they saw us moving, so I had to get them to focus their attention on me . I had to continuously attack and hara.s.s them until we transported what we needed and finished setting it up .

Frankly, I didn’t trust Leah . Perhaps she truly could get them to withhold their main forces from inside, but it still wasn’t easy for me to attack the city door . Last time, it took me a day just to take down a panther, so it’d probably take even longer to bring it down with so many low anthropoids defending it .

As such, I didn’t intend to cancel my plan . I had successfully completed one third of my plan . The end of their days would come as long as I continued to hara.s.s them and prevent them from figuring out our true goal .

I didn’t need to capture some d.a.m.ned city wall . Why do I need to capture it when I could just destroy it? I didn’t have a large calibre cannon right now, but I had enough gun powder . As long as I could slip enough gun powder into a vital spot, I’d be able to blow the entire city wall up .

This was the power of humanity .
