Outside of Cloud Town, there were many trenches, as well as all sorts of killing traps. On both sides of Cloud Town, there were two high grounds, and from there, one could launch an attack from below.
Hu-er Ran eyed the battlefield, his horsewhip pointing forward as he ordered solemnly, "Get the slave army to fill up those trenches!"
The Mongolian general in charge of the slave army, Agudu, looked at the 3,000 expressionless slaves and roared, "You bunch of pigs, listen up! Go fill up those trenches. As long as you do that, your families will receive huge benefits. The lower class slaves will be promoted to higher class slaves, and the higher class slaves will be promoted to lower class commoners. This is the only chance for you and your families to gain freedom and dignity. Charge for this daddy!! "
Under Agudu's roar, the eyes of the 3,000 slaves flashed with a glimmer of hope, as they picked up their sandbags and charged towards the trenches. Although Hu-er Ran's subordinates were harsh towards other races, they were still trustworthy. Agudu's promise caused a glimmer of hope in the eyes of the slaves.
"Don't kill me!! I'm a Han!! "
"Don't shoot!! I'm a Han!! "
"Don't shoot, I'm a Korean!!"
"Don't shoot, I'm a Miao!!"
"Don't shoot, we're fellow countrymen!!"
"..."
Under the supervision of the 200 troops, the 3,000 slaves carried sandbags and rushed towards the trenches in front of Cloud Town in despair, crying and crying.
Forcing the commoners to attack the city, this was one of the most vicious methods that Genghis Khan had passed down. If the enemy was merciful and allowed the commoners to fill up the defences, the Mongolian army would be able to break through. If the enemy attacked the commoners, it would expend their ammunition, and even damage their morale. It was truly a vicious method.
"Quick, leave!! Leave this place!! Go!! "
"Don't come over, there's a trap here!! Don't come over!! "
"..."
Seeing the 3,000 slaves moving towards them, the soldiers of Cloud Town roared out with bloodshot eyes. They would rather fight with the Manchurian and Mongolian troops than point their guns at their own countrymen.
Hong!!
Accompanied by a loud noise, more than a dozen slaves stepped on the mines, their limbs were broken, and they were either dead or injured.
A slave stepped on a mechanism, and a volley of arrows shot towards them. The dense volley of arrows pierced through a dozen slaves, causing them to wail in pain.
The surroundings of Cloud Town were filled with landmines and all sorts of traps. Originally, these landmines and traps were prepared for the Manchurian and Mongolian allied forces. However, the various slave armies had sacrificed their lives to fill in the gaps.
"Ah!! I don't want to die!! "Seeing his companions being blown up or shot to death one after another, a slave soldier screamed and ran backward. Under his lead, dozens of slave soldiers also wanted to escape to the rear.
"Anyone who runs will die!!" Behind them, the Mongolian soldiers who were supervising the battle were slaughtering the fleeing slaves in a frenzy, killing them one by one.
After the patrol team killed more than 30 escaped slaves, the situation was slightly stabilized.
Li Guang ordered coldly, "Snipers! Shoot down their supervisors! "
Bang! Bang!
Following the sound of gunshots, many of the Mongolian soldiers had their heads blasted open, as they slumped to the ground.
Those who stood behind the slave soldiers were like live targets, being sniped by the elite snipers hiding on both sides of Cloud Town.
Under the threat of death, the Mongolian soldiers who had been flaunting their prowess crumbled, as they abandoned over 30 corpses and retreated pathetically.
Without the threat of the patrol team, the 3,000 slave soldiers also crumbled and retreated.
Hu-er Ran looked at the crumbling slave soldiers, his eyes flashing coldly as he ordered, "They actually dare to retreat without orders, kill them all!"
Countless bullets were fired from the allied forces, and a dense barrage of steel bullets landed on the 3,000 slave soldiers, killing or wounding them.
Agudo held an assault rifle in his hand and madly fired at the crowd while shouting loudly, "Go back to where you came from! Throw the sandbags on your backs into the trenches, otherwise, I'll kill countless of you! Your families will also be treated like pigs and dogs, to be humiliated by others! "
The 3,000 slave soldiers had suffered heavy casualties, and many of them were lying in pools of their own blood. They could only cry helplessly as they continued to charge towards the Passage to Hell.
Hu-er Ran did not seem to care about the lives of the slaves, his eyes flashing with a cold light as he ordered, "So quick to send out the snipers? Convey my order, snipers, attack! "
Under Hu-er Ran's orders, the elite snipers of the White Armor and Qie Xue Troops began to advance carefully, engaging Yue Zhong's snipers in a dangerous battle.
Peng! Peng!
The clear sounds of gunfire rang out from time to time, and although it wasn't concentrated, each time it rang out, there would be at least one or two snipers dying. Whether it was the snipers under Yue Zhong, or the snipers of the allied forces.
The intense sniping continued for a while, and the Mongolian snipers suffered heavy losses. 20 of their snipers were killed by the snipers of the Victorious Troops, while they only managed to kill 10 of them.
The Kingdom of God army that Yue Zhong had subdued was an elite force, most of them were Adjudicators, and had changed their jobs to Soldiers. Among the 1,700 Adjudicators, there were a thousand snipers. They had all trained hard in their sniping skills. In the Victorious Army, there were more than 200 snipers.
There were many snipers within the allied forces as well, but their numbers were lacking compared to the Victorious Troops. Furthermore, their top snipers could not compare to the snipers of the Victorious Troops. Be it in terms of quantity or quality, they were completely suppressed. Hence, they had suffered heavy losses when facing the elites of the Victorious Troops.
While the two sides were engaged in fierce sniping, the remaining 800 slave soldiers approached the dangerous trenches with sandbags on their backs.
Li Guang looked at the 800 slave soldiers and gave the order coldly, "Open fire!!"
"Hurry and run! Don't get close to the trenches!! "
"Hurry and run!! We're going to open fire!! "
"..."
The soldiers of the Victorious Troops of Cloud Town screamed out as they fired helplessly, each bullet hitting the bodies of the slave soldiers, causing them to fall to the ground.
Yue Zhong's forces could not compare to the allied forces in Cloud Town, and he could only rely on the fortifications, bunkers and traps.
If Li Guang had been soft-hearted and allowed the slave soldiers to use their lives to fill up the traps and trenches, then it would have been easier for the allied forces to attack. The casualties of the Victorious Troops would also be higher, and to the Victorious Troops who were at a disadvantage in terms of numbers, it was an unbearable loss.
The slave soldiers fell in pools of their own blood, however, there were many who threw the sandbags on their backs into the trenches.
One of the slave soldiers was extremely quick-witted, and he saw that charging towards Cloud Town or retreating was a dead end, hence, he ran to one side, hiding in between the two sides.
When the rest of the slave soldiers saw this, they quickly fled to the sides, hiding in the gaps between the two sides. They didn't want to risk their lives for the allied army, but in order to survive, they could only be cannon fodder, using their bodies to fill in the traps for the allied army.
"Get the snipers to retreat." Hu-er Ran's face was dark as he spoke. With the slave soldiers on strike, there was no point in sniping anymore. Furthermore, the snipers of the allied forces were being suppressed by the Victorious Troops. This caused Hu-er Ran and Xuan Zhen to feel heartache.
Without the support of the Novice Village, every single sniper required a huge amount of time and effort. Moreover, snipers were also very useful when dealing with experts.
As long as a top-notch sniper was hidden far away, he could force a powerful Evolver to pay attention to him, causing him to only be able to exhibit 80% of his abilities. Those powerful Evolvers could be killed by snipers hiding in the dark if they were not careful.
"Zheli Mu, bring some troops to take down that hill for me." Hu-er Ran eyed the high ground on both sides of Cloud Town and pointed to one of them, ordering Zheli Mu.
Hu-er Ran was clear that in order to take down Cloud Town, they would have to go through a brutal battle. He decided to take it slow and steady, relying on his superior numbers and firepower to crush Yue Zhong head-on.
"Yes! Your Majesty! "Zheli Mu replied respectfully and left.
Hu-er Ran looked at Xuan Zhen and spoke solemnly, "Your Majesty, I'll leave that hill to you."
This time, Hu-er Ran and Xuan Zhen had gambled on the fate of the Mongolian and Manchurian Empires, pulling all the soldiers over. They were clear that with each passing day, Yue Zhong's strength would increase by a notch. If they were to lose today, they would not be able to survive. The Mongols and Manchurians would be defeated, and most of their people would become his slaves.
Xuan Zhen swept Ao Dou a stern look, "Ao Dou! Go take some men and take down that hill! "
"Your slave understands!!" Ao Dou got down on one knee and bowed, before turning around to leave.
The moment Zheli Mu and Ao Dou left, the allied forces began to fire at the 2 hills of Cloud Town.
Hong! Hong!
Following a series of loud explosions, a number of heavy cannons landed on the 2 hills, and the resulting explosions almost caused the 2 hills to collapse. (To be continued. If you like this work, please come to Qidian.Com to vote for me. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
