Mulan City!
The only six cannons did not participate in the battle because they were worried that the secret would be leaked and copied.
Several leaders in Mulan City were very pessimistic about this battle and were ready to die together with the city.
Once the city was breached, Zhang Chunhua would detonate all the remaining explosives, destroying all the important materials and secret information.
However, they did not use the cannons, but they did use the huge catapults, a total of 20 huge catapults.
These catapults were too big. The walls of Mulan City could not fit them, so they were placed behind the walls. Anyway, they could easily cross the walls.
Each catapult required at least a dozen people to operate, and the two thousand warriors under Shen Lang's command were simply too precious. Hence, they used slaves to operate these catapults, and each catapult was managed by a single soldier.
These slaves would not fight for their masters, but operating the catapults was like a job to them. And every one of them was like a robot, meticulously following orders.
"Fire, fire, fire …"
Following the order, Duke Count and Austin Count added up to more than thirty catapults began to fire.
Dozens of kilograms of gunpowder packets flew toward Mulan City.
"Boom, boom, boom, boom …"
In an instant, both sides of the walls of Mulan City were once again shrouded in thick black smoke.
This was practically a true bombardment.
The entire ground shook violently, and the thick smoke almost covered the sun in the sky.
The defenders on the walls of Mulan City were all hiding behind the battlements, waiting for the enemy to end the bombardment.
In fact, the catapults in Mulan City were more lethal and could be thrown farther, but they did not fire.
Because this kind of projectile firing was too blind, it needed to be fired when the enemy was attacking the city on a large scale, so that it could cause great damage.
"Boom, boom, boom, boom …"
This time, the amount of black gunpowder brought by the Vulcan Cult was indeed astonishing, more than dozens of tons, and produced a total of two to three thousand gunpowder packets.
This round of bombardment really did not seem to end.
It was an absolute suppression of firepower.
The accuracy of these catapults was very poor. Almost half of them directly hit the city wall and bounced back to the ground outside. Thirty percent of them flew directly into the city walls. Less than one could actually hit the city walls and explode in every round.
But under this kind of indiscriminate bombardment, the results of the battle were still far greater than at the Spring Flower Pass.
A few dozen kilograms of black gunpowder would not be able to blow up a meter thick city wall, but once it was thrown inside the city wall, it could blow up a house or blast a big hole in the ground.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh …"
The enemy's rocket launcher once again performed a stunning scene.
However, this time, it didn't miss. Instead, it drew a long trail and directly shot into Mulan City, actually causing casualties.
Thousands of fire arrows killed more than ten slaves.
Now that the battle had begun, most of the slaves were squatting in the houses inside, quietly waiting for the battle to end.
Once the enemies outside the city won, it wouldn't matter to them. At most, they would just have to change masters.
It was impossible for them to fight for Mulan City.
Of course, all the slaves felt that their lives in the Queen's City were very good, at least better than with other slave owners. The daily workload was very heavy, but at least it was not fatal. At least they could eat well, and there were spacious beds to sleep on and even clothes to wear. The most important thing was that they didn't get beaten.
Moreover, the master seemed to have pardoned their status as slaves.
However, they were slaves, working slaves, and would not fight for their master.
Several fire arrows shot directly into the window as if they had eyes. The inside was densely packed with slaves, and a dozen of them were shot dead in an instant.
However, the surrounding slaves were only surprised for a moment, then continued to squat there motionlessly. They did not run, nor did they rescue the slaves who were shot dead. They seemed to be numb.
… …
After half an hour of indiscriminate bombardment, it was finally over.
The army of Austin Count and Duke Count threw at least more than a thousand gunpowder packets at Mulan City.
In fact, the gunpowder packets were not used up yet, but the catapults were all broken, and they could not withstand such a high intensity battle.
At least from the naked eye, Mulan City was in a terrible state. The entire city wall was pitch-black, and many of the houses near the city wall had been turned into ruins. At least a hundred of them had been blown up.
Under this indiscriminate bombardment, the solid city wall, which was more than a meter thick, was finally damaged. Four to five cracks were blown up.
Of course, it was not a big hole that was completely blown up, but a gap at the corner of the wall.
Out of the thousand or so gunpowder packets, only twenty or thirty of them actually landed on the city walls and exploded. Even so, they still caused casualties.
Out of the more than two thousand soldiers under Shen Lang's command, more than twenty of them were killed and close to two hundred were injured.
Austin Count and Duke Count looked at each other.
"Attack the city!"
"Attack the city!"
Following the two Count's orders, the 20,000 soldiers rushed towards the two sides of the city wall like a tide.
"For the Empire, for Grand Duke Deborah."
"For Sauron the Great, kill all the Easterners!"
The 20,000 soldiers had a special rhythm, and their charging speed was getting faster and faster.
They were getting closer and closer to the Mulan City wall. Four hundred meters, three hundred meters.
At this moment!
The 18 catapults in Mulan City finally showed their power (the other two were destroyed by the enemy's bombardment).
"Ready, ignite!"
"Release, release, release …"
Following the order, there was a thunderous sound.
One after another, huge gunpowder packets were thrown out. Each of the gunpowder packets weighed more than 50 kilograms.
They were all wrapped in asbestos cloth to prevent fire. Each gunpowder packet contained 25 kilograms of explosives and 25 kilograms of shrapnel. There were more than a few hundred shrapnel pieces in total.
The huge gunpowder packets drew an arc in the air, crossed the city wall, and smashed into the enemy's charging army.
Then …
A truly earth-shattering explosion occurred once again.
"Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom …"
The ground that had just calmed down shook violently again.
The power was much stronger than a grenade.
25 kilograms of TNT and 25 kilograms of shrapnel. The power was enough to flatten a small building.
Within a radius of 30 meters of the explosion, it was almost a death zone.
Flowers of blood bloomed once again.
Countless enemy soldiers were once again blown up and sent flying.
This round of attack from the catapults in Mulan City had killed hundreds of people.
Count Austin and Count Duke, who were standing on high ground, saw this scene, but their faces only twitched slightly.
They had already expected that there would be a lot of casualties in this battle, but it was all worth it, because this was a war between races.
If they did not eliminate this group of Easterners today, their forces would soon spread.
Even though it was very tragic, the result of the battle would not change.
The destruction of the Easterners' Empress City had become a foregone conclusion.
… …
North of the Jade Tide Peninsula.
The 8,000 Amazon Knights led by Shen Lang were like a tidal wave heading south at an incomparably fast speed.
The Amazon Island was indeed special. Not only was the bloodline of the humans similar to that of the ancient humans, even the warhorses were the same.
The Amazon warhorses were far superior to the warhorses in the outside world, be it in size or speed. They were about 2.7 meters tall and weighed more than 1.5 tons.
A warhorse of this size was an absolute giant, even bigger than the Sharma horses on Earth.
The Sharma horses were not suitable on the battlefield, and were more suitable for transportation. However, the Amazon warhorses were shockingly fierce on the battlefield. They had strong bones and shocking charging speed.
The charging speed of a normal warhorse in this world was only 15 meters per second, but the Amazon warhorses could reach a shocking speed of more than 25 meters per second.
Even if they carried two people on their backs and were equipped with iron armor, they still possessed a shocking speed.
This kind of weight, this kind of charging speed was simply unstoppable. No matter what kind of military formation it was, it could probably be easily torn apart.
Of course, there were not many such powerful Amazon warhorses. This time, Queen Aida had given Shen Lang eight thousand warriors, but only four thousand warhorses. These warhorses had been transported by hundreds of ships.
At this time, the six-mile wall of Spring Flower Pass had fallen into the enemy's hands. Count Austin's army headed south to attack Mulan City, leaving behind two thousand people to defend Spring Flower Pass. This was mainly to imitate the Easterners' escape in Mulan City.
At this time, the one defending the wall of Spring Flower Pass was a Thousand Households. He used to be Duke Deborah's attendant, and was a very outstanding warrior. His name was Buck.
Buck's family had been vassals of the Russo family for generations, and he was also of noble birth. However, he was not a legitimate son and could not inherit the title, so he had been by Duke Deborah's side since he was young and became her attendant warrior.
Not only that, but he was also extremely handsome. Whether he admitted it or not, in his heart, he wanted something to happen with Duke Deborah. Even if he knew that he could not marry this noble woman, it was still possible to be her lover.
Of course, he did not succeed. The private lives of the nobles of the Xilun Dynasty were very messy. Although Deborah had a beautiful face and a hot body, she was not enthusiastic about the matters between men and women.
Of course, in the face of Buck's flattery, Deborah did not punish him. Instead, she allowed him to enter the army.
At this time, Thousand Households Buck was complaining about Count Austin. Why did he stay here? Why did he not bring him to attack Mulan City? He wanted to skin every Easterner there, pull out their tendons, and grind their bones to ashes.
He hated every Easterner.
Because Shen Lang had slept with his woman, Duke Deborah, even though it was for a sacrifice. But in Buck's eyes, even if this lowly Easterner, Shen Lang, was burned to death ten thousand times, he still did not deserve to touch even half of Duke Deborah's finger.
There was no more battle here, so Thousand Households Buck could rest in peace. In the Spring Flower Gate's blockhouse, he closed the door and took off his armor. In his mind, he imagined Duke Deborah's face and began to do some unspeakable things.
"Duke Deborah, I want you."
"Mistress, I will make you hover between life and death. You should let me prove it."
And at this time, suddenly, the cup on the table began to tremble.
What was going on? Was it an earthquake?
"Bang, bang, bang …"
The ground shook more and more violently.
"Bang …" The door of the blockhouse was suddenly smashed open. The one who rushed in was the Vice Thousand Households Buck. He looked at the Lord Thousand Households Buck in shock and the portrait in front of him. Who was the woman in the portrait?
But this Vice Thousand Households Buck did not make a fuss, because this kind of thing was very common in the army, and there were even more extreme cases.
"Lord Thousand Households, there are enemies!"
… …..
Captain Buck led two thousand warriors up the six-kilometer city wall of Spring Flower Gate, gazing towards the north.
A black shadow, two black shadows, a mass of black shadows.
The enemies on the walls of Spring Flower Gate could not see clearly, but the warriors on the top of the mountain could see it even more clearly.
Eight thousand Amazon warriors, two men and one horse, spread out on the ground as if there was no end to them.
Like a tidal wave, they swept down.
"Wuwuwu …"
"Enemy attack, enemy attack …"
"Prepare for battle, prepare for battle!"
When they were two thousand meters away from the walls of Spring Flower Gate, four thousand Amazon female warriors leapt off their warhorses and charged madly towards the city wall with their long legs.
They did not rest, did not assemble into formations, and directly attacked the city!
And what was even more astonishing was that even though they were not riding on horses and were running madly on foot, their speed was not much slower.
The speed of their charge was simply incomparable.
And when they charged, they did not shout slogans, they just ran madly.
At this time, the enemy troops on the walls of Spring Flower Gate finally saw clearly.
"Amazon female warriors? How, how is this possible? "
"According to the teachings of our ancestors, aren't Amazon female warriors not allowed to take even half a step out of the country?"
"Why are they here?"
Speaking of the Amazon female warriors, Captain Bach was also filled with anger and humiliation, because he had participated in the Reproduction Ceremony three times, but in the end, he had returned empty-handed. None of the Amazon female warriors had chosen him.
"Ready!"
"Shoot!"
Following Captain Bach's order, the two thousand enemy troops on the city wall began to shoot.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh …"
The result was zero!
The density of the arrows of two thousand people was indeed not enough, and the speed of the Amazon female warriors was just too fast, more than ten meters per second. Unless one was a sharpshooter, it was impossible to hit such a high-speed moving target.
And even if they could hit it, it would be meaningless. The Amazon female warriors were close to the ancient humans, and could easily block swords with their shields.
In just a few seconds.
Four thousand Amazon female warriors rushed to the bottom of the city wall.
Although the city wall was not high, it was still about five meters high, and they did not have any siege ladders, not even ropes.
But what happened next, not only Captain Bach, but even Shen Lang was completely shocked.
My … My god, so strong?
The Sand Barbarian warriors could use ropes to climb the city wall, and even climb it with their bare hands, and so could the Second Nirvana Army.
But this group of Amazon female warriors did not even need to climb.
They directly accelerated on the ground, and then directly rushed up the city wall diagonally.
Just like the most gorgeous parkour, their feet quickly stepped on the straight city wall, and finally, with a push of their hands, they directly jumped up the city wall.
This was just the ordinary Amazon female warriors, and what was even more exaggerated was that several of the Amazon female generals directly jumped up the five-meter high city wall.
Of course, this could also be done by Baby Mulan.
But dozens of Amazon female generals could do it.
So in almost a few seconds, thousands of Amazon female warriors jumped up the city wall.
Captain Bach shouted, "Draw your sword, kill the enemy, kill the enemy!"
"Swish!"
Before he could finish his words, his whole body was cut in half.
After an Amazon female general jumped up the city wall, she casually slashed down with her sword, and a sword of more than a hundred kilograms directly cut the man in half.
"Swish, swish, swish …"
Her hand rose and the sword fell.
A few minutes later, the battle was over!
The two thousand enemy soldiers who occupied Spring Flower Pass were completely killed, and all of them died without a complete corpse.
The Amazon female warriors were too ruthless, either beheading, cutting off their waist, or splitting them in half.
"Bang, bang, bang, bang …"
Someone opened the city gate of Spring Flower Pass.
The Amazon warhorses surged through the city gate like a tide, and continued to gallop south.
And most of the Amazon female warriors did not go through the city gate, but directly jumped up the city wall, and then jumped down from the five-meter high wall.
The whole movement was as smooth as flowing water.
This six-kilometer long city wall, and the two thousand soldiers defending it, did not block the Amazon female warriors for more than a quarter of an hour.
Shen Lang exclaimed, "Too strong, too strong."
Princess Dola said, "Sir Shen Lang, I know you are very excited, but please don't touch me. If you continue like this, I will have to consider wearing the Silver Underpants. "
Shen Lang said, "Don't, don't, the edge of the Silver Underpants is hard and sharp, it will cut your thigh."
Princess Dola said, "If you don't take your hand off my thigh, I'm afraid my sword will cut off your fingers."
Shen Lang said, "Dola, you are not as cute as before. You used to touch me of your own accord."
Princess Dola said, "You were a woman at that time, Miss Long Nana."
Shen Lang originally wanted to say, "You can treat me as a woman," but he was afraid that if he said it, the other party would really turn him into a woman with a sword.
After rushing through the city wall of Spring Flower Pass, Shen Lang ordered, "Leave eight hundred people to guard this city gate, cut off the enemy's escape route. The remaining seven thousand and two hundred people, head south at full speed to save the Queen City. "
Following Shen Lang's order, the seven thousand and two hundred Amazon female warriors sped south.
It was more like a raging tide.
… …
The battle under Mulan's city wall had lasted for three and a half hours.
It was more tragic than expected.
Austin Count had expected the casualties to be around fifteen thousand, but three hours after the battle began, the casualties had already exceeded this number.
The Thunder Fury weapon of the Easterners was too powerful.
It was simply a god of death, a reaper of life.
On the ground outside the city wall, hundreds of large pits had been blown up, densely packed with corpses, many of which were even mutilated.
Blood had completely dyed the ground red.
After the army worked hard to repair more than a dozen catapults, they once again carried out suppressive fire on the city wall.
But the Easterners still took the risk of using the exploding iron lumps, and once again massacred the troops of Austin and Duke Count.
At least dozens of grenades exploded among the defenders of Mulan's city wall. The consequences were extremely tragic. More than two hundred of their own people were killed, and even a few huge holes were blown up on the city wall.
This was a war of race, a war of honor.
The armies of both sides showed unparalleled fighting spirit. Even if the casualties exceeded the warning line, their morale was still high.
Under the suppression of the firepower, the armies of Austin Count and Duke Count once again rushed to the city wall.
Boom boom boom boom …
Explosions were everywhere on the ground, but they were getting sparser.
Because almost all the catapults in the city had been damaged, they would not be able to fire for at least two to four hours.
Also, the stockpiled explosives were almost used up.
There were originally more than two thousand defenders, but now there were less than one thousand and four hundred left.
But there were still siege supplies, rolling logs, and stones on the city wall, which could still be used to destroy the enemy.
The leader of the Eastern Knights, General Lan Feng, pulled out his sword and shouted, "Because of the wisdom of his majesty, we have powerful new weapons. But now that the new weapons have been used up, it is time for us to fulfill the mission of a warrior. "
"Protect the Queen City with our lives!"
"Live and die with the Queen City!"
"Long live his majesty! Long live his majesty!"
Austin Count and Duke Count stood on the high ground and saw the scene. "What a brave army."
"Yes!" Duke Count said, "But the braver they are, the more they deserve to die. The battle is about to end."
"Yes, it is about to end!"
"We have more than twenty thousand casualties, but it doesn't matter!"
"Woo … woo … woo …"
Following the sound of the horn.
The fourth round of attacks broke out once again.
Austin and Duke Duke's 20,000-strong army once again charged toward Mulan City in a frenzy.
This time, they managed to reach the city wall relatively smoothly because the catapults in the city were malfunctioning and the defenders had almost used up all their grenades.
"Bang, bang, bang …"
Countless siege ladders were placed on top of the city wall, and countless enemies climbed up like ants.
Rolling logs fell from the top of the city wall.
The defenders lifted up boulders and smashed them down with all their might.
The grenades were very precious at this point. They had to hit the place with the most number of enemies and smash them down.
"Boom …" Twenty lives were taken in one go.
The entire battle had reached its climax.
"Die, die, die!"
"Kill, kill, kill!"
… …
Listening to the deafening noise outside, Zhang Chunhua took a sip of wine in the mayor's mansion.
At this time, the entire mansion was buried with hundreds of kilograms of explosives, countless black gunpowder, countless amounts of fish oil, countless amounts of sulfuric acid, and countless amounts of secret information.
Once the city was breached, the enemies would swarm into the mayor's mansion.
Then, she would completely detonate the entire City Lord's Mansion and burn all the secrets to the ground. She would also drag a few hundred enemies down with her.
She wore a gorgeous dress today, and she even purposely pulled down her chest. She was the only one enjoying herself anyway.
Cleavage was something that could be squeezed.
Listening to the sounds of battle outside, she knew that the final moment was coming.
In at most half an hour, Mulan City would fall.
When that time came, she would be reduced to ashes along with the entire mayor's mansion.
She really couldn't accept this.
He drank mouthful after mouthful of wine.
I don't believe it. I don't believe this will happen.
Shenlang was able to turn the tables in a worse situation before. Was it really going to be destroyed this time?
Shenlang, this city was named after your wife.
It doesn't matter if the city passes named after me fall, but how can you allow the Empress City to fall?
Are you going to start from zero again?
If you want to perform a miracle, then hurry up. If you dare to perform a last-minute rescue, I will pour urine on your face. I guarantee it will still be hot.
And at this moment.
"Bang bang bang bang …"
The entire ground began to shake. It wasn't the kind of tremor caused by an explosion, but like a small earthquake.
She was shocked and delighted, and suddenly climbed up the steps.
The mayor's mansion had four floors, which was almost the highest. She wore a gorgeous dress and climbed directly to the top of the mayor's mansion, looking towards the north.
Then, she saw a raging tide surging down from the north!
Shenlang was here!
With a stunning army, he rushed towards Mulan City.
… …
Austin Count, who was standing high up, and Duke Count saw it earlier.
Both of their faces were pale, and they couldn't believe their eyes at all.
This, this was an Amazon female warrior?
How was this possible?
For a thousand years, no one had been able to conquer the Amazon tribe, not even the Xilun Dynasty.
How could Shenlang do it?
How many Amazon soldiers were there? Five thousand? Seven thousand?
How could he get the loyalty of the Amazon army?
Duke Count and Austin Count knew the power of the Amazon female warriors very well.
This was simply a thunderstorm, a storm.
At this time, more than ten thousand people were attacking the city, and the two still had forty thousand soldiers in their hands.
"Formation, formation!"
"Meet the enemy, meet the enemy …"
"Shield formation, long spear formation!"
Following the orders of the two Count, the forty thousand soldiers quickly lined up and turned to face the north.
The forty thousand soldiers seemed to have become a tortoise shell.
Thousands of huge shields formed a temporary steel wall.
"Huff, huff, huff, huff …"
Every soldier gasped for air.
I heard that the Amazon female warriors were very powerful. Today, I want to see if a few thousand of you can defeat tens of thousands of us.
"Come on, come on!"
Looking down from the sky.
Austin and Duke Count's forty thousand soldiers formed ten phalanxes, stretching for a few miles, like a steel array.
And seven thousand Amazon female warriors, like a tide, swept down quickly.
Princess Dora was inexplicably excited.
She loved to fight, especially the more enemies she had, the better. The stronger the enemy, the better.
"Accelerate, accelerate, accelerate …"
The warhorse under the Amazon female warriors was also inexplicably excited.
Its speed was already very fast, and now it accelerated again, instantly reaching a speed of twenty-five meters per second.
This speed was already like a car at ninety kilometers per hour.
Charge, charge, charge!
The Amazon cavalry was getting closer and closer to the enemy's forty thousand soldiers.
Three hundred meters.
Two hundred meters.
One hundred meters.
The world fell into a brief silence.
Then …
"Bang, bang, bang, bang …"
The two armies collided in an instant.
There was no suspense.
It was like crushing dry weeds and smashing rotten wood.
The Amazon army easily tore apart the steel array of the enemy's forty thousand soldiers.
Then it was a crazy trampling.
Crazy slaughter.
Crazy crushing!
Everywhere the Amazon cavalry passed, everything turned into meat paste!
A complete victory!
… …
