"Fury of the Yama!"
Just when the black boar Behemoth was about to smash into the walls again, Wang Chong's black Godking Yama soared into the air, his massive cudgel blazing with violet flames as he smashed it against the Behemoth's head. At almost the same time, there was a massive boom as the giant ballistae controlled by Chen Bin and Xu Keyi also attacked. Two massive ballista bolts struck the head of the black boar Behemoth.
Awoooo!
The black boar-like beast, the Destroyer, suddenly raised its head and let out a long, mournful howl. This time, its long, iron-like hair and tough, elastic skin were not of any use. Two long crossbow bolts pierced through its skin and bones, stabbing deep into its head.
This time, the Destroyer finally suffered an unprecedented blow.
Boom! Boom!
Just as the Destroyer was howling miserably, another two long crossbow bolts whizzed over from afar and hit the Destroyer's head. The exuberant flames of life of the black boar Behemoth instantly dimmed as if they had been doused in frost.
"Wonderful!"
Gao Xianzhi, Cheng Qianli, and Wang Yan were invigorated by this sight. Without the slightest hesitation, the three Great Generals of the Tang Dynasty worked together with Wang Chong and the two giant ballistae to attack the black boar Behemoth. One second, two seconds … the life energy of the black boar Behemoth began to wane at an astonishing rate. Awoooo!
The Behemoth roared, its scarlet eyes turning to stare at the two giant ballistae in the distance as it madly charged forward. The Behemoth's attention had originally been focused on the siege, and the two giant ballistae seemed to be dealing more damage to it than the three Great Generals. Each blow was so painful that the Behemoth had no choice but to pay attention to the two ballistae even if it didn't want to.
"Stop it!"
Gao Xianzhi and the others kept their attention on the gigantic beast. As soon as the gigantic beast turned around, numerous gigantic chains of astral energy flew out, wrapping around the black boar-like beast and pulling it back. Immediately after that, the Supreme Desolation God, the Mighty Miracle God, Gao Xianzhi, and the Godking Yama that Wang Chong had transformed into rammed into the beast's ribs.
The black boar-like beast charged left and right, but it was blocked every time. Not only that, the beast's head was hit by another seven or eight arrows.
"Release!"
"Release!"
The two giant ballistae were lined up side by side. Chen Bin and Xu Keyi stood in front of the giant ballistae, the swords in their hands constantly swinging down, firing one giant ballista bolt after another. The two of them were the best ballista commanders of the Tang dynasty's reinforcements. In just a short period of time, the two of them had completely grasped how to use the giant ballistae.
Not only that, the two of them had also refined the reloading of the giant ballistae, greatly reducing the critical reloading time.
"Release!"
"Release!"
One ballista bolt after another flew out. The power of the two giant ballistae was on a completely different level from when they were dealing with the hippopotamus Behemoth. Under the barrage of the two giant ballistae, the last black boar-like Behemoth's aura of life was quickly weakened to an unbelievable degree.
"These damn bastards! I'll definitely tear you to pieces! "
Masil's heart trembled at the sight of his' Destroyer 'being heavily wounded by four Tang experts and two giant ballistae, his face contorted in rage. His face contorted into a savage grimace.
"Hurry and summon the Destroyer back for me!"
Masil turned around and barked at a terrified servant behind him.
Although he was very unwilling, each of these Behemoths had been his blood, sweat, and tears. The Terrorizer was already dead, and Masil could not sit by and watch as the other Behemoth was killed by the Tang people.
"Whistle! Whistle! "
A few moments later, a sharp and piercing whistle came from the Arab camp. In the distance, the black boar-like Behemoth in front of Talas paused and turned its head in the direction of the Arab camp. Boom! After only a few moments of hesitation, the illustrious Destroyer of Arabia pushed aside three people and began to madly charge out of the encirclement.
"Beast! Don't you think it's too late to think about running now! "
Behind the steel defense line, Chen Bin and Xu Keyi sneered at this sight. If the Arabs had called back this black boar-like Behemoth at the very beginning, they might not have been able to do anything. But at this point, the Behemoth's head had been struck by twenty to thirty arrows, and each of them had been driven deep into its skull by Wang Chong's metal cudgel. In these circumstances, even a Behemoth with such tenacious vitality was on the verge of death.
Boomboom!
Chen Bin and Xu Keyi swung their swords, and two ballista bolts struck the Behemoth's head like lightning bolts.
The Behemoth moved with incredible speed. In the blink of an eye, it had crossed fifty zhang. Boomboom! Another two bolts struck its head. Seventy zhang. A third volley …
Rumble! One hundred and fifty zhang!
Another two arrows were shot out. This time, the black boar-like beast let out a long howl, but it was unable to charge forward. Its huge body fell heavily to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.
The battle was over. Everything returned to silence. The entire battlefield was absolutely silent. The first to erupt into cheers came from the Tang dynasty soldiers in the City of Talas. The enormous pressure that had been weighing down on their heads had finally vanished.
"Victory! We've won! "
The soldiers and mercenaries of the Tang Dynasty fiercely waved their fists, their faces red with excitement. The Tang Dynasty had used the corpses of these three Behemoths to once more prove its strength to all its enemies.
More importantly, the army finally had weapons that could deal with these Behemoths. The one hundred thousand soldiers finally had the capital to survive on the battlefield.
"It's over. The Arab Behemoths are no longer a threat to them. In the end, we'll have to take the field!"
The Celestial Wolf Great General Duwusili stood on the high hill, indifferently blinking, his eyes filled with disappointment. He had been very hopeful about the Arab Behemoths, but now that the giant ballistae had appeared, there was no longer any suspense.
Now that the Tang Dynasty had the weapons to contend against the Arabs, the Behemoths were no longer much of a threat.
"It's still too early to make a conclusion."
Duwusili had already turned around and was walking toward the army, but when he heard these words, he stopped and gave Dalun Ruozan a confused look.
"Haha, has General not noticed? The Tang people's defense line has already been completely opened. "
Dalun Ruozan had a relaxed expression on his face, but when Duwusili heard these words, his body trembled and he turned to look at the first defense line in front of Talas. In this battle, everyone was focused on the massive bodies of the Behemoths. Everyone's attention, including Duwusili's, was focused on the Behemoths. As for the two defense lines that the Tang Dynasty had erected in front of Talas, no one paid much attention to them.
"Buzz!"
As his gaze swept over the first defense line of the Tang Dynasty, Duwusili's pupils constricted like they had been pricked by a needle.
"This!!"
When Duwusili had first seen the first defense line in front of the City of Talas, it had been straight and sturdy, providing the Tang Dynasty with a powerful line of defense and lifeline. But now, when Duwusili looked again, he saw that at some point, this long and majestic defense line had become crooked, with a large gap in it.
Duwusili estimated that this gap, which had been battered and twisted, was at least one thousand feet long. Such a large "gap" was extremely fatal in a battle between armies. Simply put, the Arabs could abandon the rest of the steel walls and attack through that gap.
From a certain perspective, the first defense line only existed in name. The Tang Dynasty had lost its most important defense line against the Arabs! To put it simply, the Tang Dynasty was in a 'crisis'.
"How could this be?!"
Duwusili took in a deep breath, not daring to believe his eyes. He remembered that when the first Arabian Behemoth had appeared, it hadn't caused much of an impact. The Tang Dynasty had only lost around ten thousand soldiers to kill it. Although a gap had appeared in the defense line, it hadn't been very large.
As for the second Behemoth, it had been even stronger, but it had only existed for a very short period of time. Before it could display its destructive power, it had been killed by that brat of the Tang Dynasty, who had used his god avatar and giant ballistae. As for that black boar-like Behemoth, although it had attacked the city at an extremely fast rate, even cracking the walls, Talas had still managed to stand.
Thus, in this aspect, the Arab operation had been a complete failure.
Duwusili had no idea when this massive destruction had occurred.
"When did this happen?"
Duwusili couldn't help but ask.
"Haha, in truth, it was already here at the very beginning. All of you were only paying attention to the battle between the Behemoth and Wang Chong, not paying any attention to what was happening on the ground. The behemoth attacking the defense line was far more powerful than they had imagined. None of you have noticed, but its strongest attack is actually not its body, but its four thick limbs and soles. "
Dalun Ruozan faintly smiled. His eyes were on all sides and his ears were on all sides. Not only did he have to pay attention to the big picture, he also had to pay attention to the small things that ordinary people would not pay attention to. This was what a top-notch strategist should do.
