263 The invasion
At this moment.
around ten li away from the royal protector county's capital.
Rumble!
He looked closer.
It was Jiang Li's mech troop.
they had already arrived.
Chief sovereign.
Shua!
QX01 immediately turned on the holographic projection and captured the scene of the Royal Guard County in the distance. It was clearly displayed in front of Jiang Li.
Up ahead is the capital of the Royal Guard County.
QX01 said.
Yes.
Jiang Li looked at the holographic projection and clearly saw the situation in the city. There were eight troops gathered outside the city, each with more than 30000 soldiers.
In total, there were more than 240000.
At the same time.
Within the county.
There was also the prefecture Army.
The number had reached more than 200000.
An Army of nearly 500000.
Obviously.
This was the entire strength of the Royal Guard County.
No wonder the Army has passed by so many cities without being stopped. They've all gathered in the county city of the Royal protector County.
that's good, Jiang Li said. we can catch them all in one fell swoop.
set up the artillery position and prepare for long-range artillery.
go! jiang li immediately ordered.
Yes!
At the back of the convoy.
The artillery's off-road vehicle stopped, and the mechanical cannon began to confirm the target and determine the trajectory. The mechanical cannoneers adjusted the barrel and then loaded the shell.
The artillery formation began.
the mech factory produced 20000 type 2 artilleries, 20000 at the peak of the type 2 realm, for a total of 40000.
It could be seen.
When the artillery position was set up, the square position came into view, occupying a large open space. There were cannons with thick barrels and dark muzzles.
Looking from afar, there was a wave of might that hit one's face.
It was too shocking.
At this moment.
within the royal protector county.
On the city wall.
qian ling had already put on his full-body armor, and there were a few adjutants and subordinates standing beside him. there were nearly 500000 soldiers under the city wall.
The city Lords of the eight cities of the Royal protector Commandery.
I just received news that the Xia Emperor, Jiang Li, has gathered the Xia Army today and is going to invade the territory of the great Qian dynasty.
qian ling looked around at the crowd, sneered, and shouted, the grand xia dynasty? hehe, i'm afraid that many of you have not heard of this empire, right?
you're right. The great Xia Dynasty is a Kingdom that has been established for less than half a month. Its territory only covers 15 counties.
weak but bold. He doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth. How dare he invade the great Qian dynasty? he's courting death.
I think that Emperor Xia Jiang Li thinks that the Qian dynasty has lost a lot of power after the last rebellion and war. He thinks that he has a chance.
Ridiculous.
that's right. If it wasn't for the last battle, our Royal Guard Commandery's Army alone would be enough to destroy Jiang Li's Army.
This is not arrogance, but the truth.
in order to obtain victory in this war, we will retreat to the capital of great qian and gather with the troops of the other counties. under the leadership of king qian, we will annihilate the great xia army!
Jiang Li will never return!
annihilate the great xia army!
Qian Ling raised the long spear in his hand and shouted.
Annihilate the great Xia Army!
annihilate the great Xia Army!!
let them come here and never return!!!
The next moment.
All the soldiers were shouting in unison. Their voices were like waves, and each wave was higher than the previous. Their momentum was like a rainbow, and their morale was extremely high.
Alright!
good! Qian Ling nodded in satisfaction and shouted, all troops, set off!
At this moment.
fire! Jiang Li waved his hand and ordered, fire!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
in that instant.
The sight of 40000 cannons firing at the same time was simply indescribable. The cannons were lined up in a row, forming a huge artillery formation.
The smell of smoke filled the air.
In the sky.
Forty thousand cannonballs blotted out the sky, leaving behind countless trails of flame as they streaked through the air. In an instant, they landed in the capital of the Royal protector County.
!!!
In the heavens.
what's that?!
be careful!
Rumble!
It exploded.
Forty thousand cannonballs landed in the capital of the Royal protector County and exploded. The walls, houses, and buildings were destroyed.
He looked around.
His entire line of sight was filled with the explosion of the Cannonball.
Ah!
Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!
Miserable!
It was extremely miserable!
Nearly 500,000 soldiers gathered together. Since they couldn't set up a battle formation, they were caught off guard by Jiang Li. Countless soldiers were killed by the shells.
Screams rang out continuously, as dismembered limbs and bodies flew everywhere, while their armors were destroyed. One by one, the soldiers were sent flying.
heavy casualties.
the forty thousand cannonballs had almost razed a large area of the capital to the ground, turning it into ruins. the ground was covered in holes and charred black.
Smoke filled the air.
There was even a burnt smell of roasted meat.
BOOM!
Of course.
There were also stage two experts in the Royal Guard County. They were strong and used their elemental inner force to block the explosive cannonballs.
After the explosion.
Qian Ling was already dumbfounded.
a hundred thousand!
It was only one round of cannon fire!
The 40,000 artillery shells had directly killed nearly 100000 soldiers!
Buzzzzzz! Whoosh!!!
Light spots flew over and many notifications appeared in front of Jiang Li's eyes. He had successfully captured soul Tinders and 99% of them were level-one soul Tinders.
set up the formation!!!
hurry!
Enemy attack! It's an enemy!
!!
The eight city Lords immediately reacted and shouted loudly.
Roar!
The gathering of the military killing intent and the shaking of the natural energy caused the remaining 300000 soldiers to suffer some injuries.
At this moment.
The Army formation was activated.
The three Grade 2 battle formations were set up successfully.
There were roars from the beasts in the Army.
Grade 2 army formation.
jiang li smiled and waved his hand. Lt01, QBZ01, stage three undead puppet, break these battle formations.
Yes!
Shua! Shua!
and qbz01 charged at full speed towards the city.
Roar!
Ynjs01 controlled a few type 3 undead puppets to follow Lt01 and QBZ01 as they charged towards the capital.
It was very fast.
My King, where is the enemy?
a hundred thousand! We've lost a hundred thousand soldiers!
I can't believe it!
What was that attack just now?
This is too terrifying!
the eight city lords, the commanders, and qian ling's subordinates all had looks of fear on their faces. they had yet to recover from the fear they had just experienced.
Jiang Li!
Qian Ling stood on the city wall. He finally saw Jiang Li's Army ten miles away. His face darkened. Then, he saw several figures charging at him at a high speed.
What? Jiang Li?
the enemy is Jiang Li's Army?
This bi an
how did Jiang Li's Army arrive so quickly?
So the rumors are true? Jiang Li's Army is very special. They have special war weapons and are extremely destructive!
What should we do now?
Think of a way to escape.
The city Lords were panicking.
Obviously.
Jiang Li's 40000 mechanical artilleries destroyed the confidence of the castellans and killed 100000 soldiers.
It was simply terrifying.
BOOM! BOOM!
the t01 and qbz01 along with several third order undead puppets had already reached the royal guard county city. they were going to use their full strength to break the army formation.
stop them!
qian ling's eyes widened as he roared loudly.
Shua!
As soon as he finished speaking.
Qian Ling jumped down from the city wall and rushed toward . The long spear in his hand was thrust out like a flood Dragon sticking its head out, aiming at the head of .
roar!
Li Wuye's walking corpse puppet rushed over and directly hit Qian Ling.
There was a loud boom'.
The two sides collided, and Qian Ling felt a terrifying force coming from the spear in his hand, making him almost unable to hold the spear.
Roar! Roar!
Immediately after.
The Crown Prince, the black and white elders, and the other stage three undead puppets joined forces and attacked Qian Ling. Qian Ling was directly at a disadvantage and was no match for them.
Shua! Shua!
very quickly.
Qian Ling's subordinates rushed up and helped him from the side, but they were still forced to retreat.
Clang clang clang!
and QBZ01 charged towards the Army, and countless arrows and crossbow bolts shot towards them, but they were all deflected by the two.
It couldn't be blocked!
It simply couldn't be blocked!
the difference was too great.
Body of lightning!
Kachaa!
transformed into a purple lightning bolt and pierced forward like a Lightning Spear, destroying a Stage 2 army formation in one move.
The beasts in the battle formation wailed and collapsed.
BOOM!
QBZ01 fired with all his might, destroying yet another stage 2 formation.
Ah!
Pfff!
The soldiers screamed and spat out blood. They had suffered a backlash.
BOOM!
Finally.
and QBZ01 worked together to break the last stage 2 formation.
all three battle formations had been broken.
No!
Qian Ling's expression was filled with despair.
We're finished! we're all finished!
Jiang Li's Army is too powerful. It's beyond our imagination!
How did this happen?
Everyone was in despair.
artillery, get ready. Fire!
jiang li waved his hand.
BOOM! BOOM! boom!
The 40,000 cannons fired once more, and with a great boom, the cannonballs shot into the air, landing on the city.
There was no grade 2 army formation.
It simply couldn't withstand the bombardment of the artillery.
Rumble!
The Royal Guard County.
The flames of the cannonballs soared into the sky. It was a complete one-sided massacre. Every Cannonball that exploded would kill one soldier after another.
Even a stage-two warrior would not be able to hold on for long under the constant bombardment of artillery shells.
Ten minutes later.
The bombardment ended.
Stop!
Jiang Li raised his hand.
At this moment.
On the battlefield.
There were almost no living people left. There were wisps of smoke rising, and the air was filled with the smell of burning, blood, and soil.
The collapsed city walls, the broken houses, and the burning wreckage.
Corpses!
He looked around.
The ground was covered with the corpses of soldiers. Few of them were intact, and most of them had been blown into pieces by the bombs.
