"There's no time! We can't let them destroy the giant ballistae! Chen Bin, let's work together and use the giant ballistae to sweep them away! "
The howling winds caused the armor on Xu Keyi's body to clatter. The pale Xu Keyi suddenly turned his head to the nearby Chen Bin.
The giant ballistae were used to deal with the Arabian Behemoths, and each one was extremely precious. If the Behemoths did not completely die because of a lack of effective fire, then once the Behemoths went berserk, they would definitely kill more soldiers than the giants.
But in the current situation, the two of them had no other choice. Once the giant ballistae were destroyed, there would be nothing left.
"Mm!"
At the same time, Chen Bin stood in front of the giant ballistae and firmly nodded.
"We'll do as you say!"
At this moment, the two of them quickly reached an agreement. Creakcreak! The giant ballistae that had been aimed at the four Behemoths suddenly began to slowly and heavily adjust their angle, aiming their giant bolts at the two Skyquaking Giants closest to them.
Bang! Bang!
Two giant ballista bolts more than ten meters long flew through the air, piercing through the dark green armor of a Skyquaking Giant. The enormous force of the bolts pierced through the Skyquaking Giant's body, sending it flying into the air, where it was already a corpse. At almost the same time, another scream came from nearby as another Skyquaking Giant was shot to death by the giant ballista.
These Skyquaking Giants possessed unimaginable vitality and defensive power, capable of single-handedly defeating an army of several hundred, but they were still extremely weak against the terrifying giant ballistae.
"Buzz!"
The moment the two Skyquaking Giants were killed by the giant ballistae, the entire battlefield fell silent. All the giants looked in the same direction, their eyes brimming with shock.
All the giants possessed terrifying strength, speed, and dexterity, as well as extremely tough and sturdy bodies. Even if they dropped from the sky, they wouldn't be harmed. In their understanding, there was no such thing as a natural enemy. Moreover, ever since the establishment of this army, not a single giant had ever died in battle. This was the first time something like this had happened.
But this silence did not last for long. Soon after, the earth quaked and the heavens swayed. Another batch of Skyquaking Giants crashed to the ground like raindrops.
The Arabs were using this method to throw one Skyquaking Giant after another at the Tang Dynasty.
"Kill!"
With a furious roar, all the Skyquaking Giants reinvigorated and once more charged toward the giant ballistae as if their lives depended on it.
"Release!"
The ballista bolts boomed as Chen Bin and Xu Keyi swung their swords, directing the two giant ballistae to fire at the surrounding Skyquaking Giants.
But the time it took for the giant ballistae to fire had become a fatal flaw. Air surged as the Skyquaking Giants approached.
The Tang Dynasty's dire situation was not just this. As the giants of the Skyquaking Army continued to descend from the sky and attack the two giant ballistae, the Tang Dynasty's defense line was in turmoil, the four Arabian Behemoths roaring in the distance. They were now less than one thousand zhang from the first defense line of the City of Talas.
Behind the Behemoths, the two hundred thousand Arab soldiers roared as they surged forward like an avalanche.
Beset by enemies from within and without, the one hundred thousand soldiers of the Tang Dynasty were suddenly plunged into an unprecedented predicament.
"Li Siye!"
In the time it takes for a spark to fly off a flint, a young and calm voice suddenly sounded in everyone's ears. This voice seemed to possess a unique charm that made people involuntarily believe in it. It also caused the originally chaotic army to suddenly calm down.
Wang Chong stood in front of the defense line, taking in all of this. Although he appeared calm on the surface, his mind was in turmoil, an invisible pressure surging toward him from all sides.
Only Wang Chong knew how much pressure he was under, but he could not reveal any of it.
"Take all the Wushang Cavalry and immediately return to the defense line. Kill all the Skyquaking Giants … I'll leave it all to you!"
"This general will go!"
In this desperate situation, Li Siye clenched his teeth and urged his horse to charge at the Skyquaking Giants.
"Everyone, follow me!"
The five thousand Wushang Cavalry silently followed Li Siye like the guards of the god of death as they charged at the Skyquaking Giants.
"One hundred to each group! Quickly scatter!"
As they charged, Li Siye's deputy, Kong Zi-an, shouted. The dense ranks of Wushang Cavalry quickly divided into fifty hundred-man groups that charged at the nearest Skyquaking Giants.
The Wushang Cavalry were the strongest in the army, and they could only be relied on to deal with the Skyquaking Giants.
Even after all this was done, Wang Chong did not relax in the slightest. His eyes were sharp and dazzling, even more dazzling than the sun. He abruptly raised his head to look at the sky, and his dazzling eyes instantly became incomparably deep. Rumble! At the end of Wang Chong's vision, one Skyquaking Giant after another fell like meteors toward the Tang Dynasty.
All these dark green meteors were reflected in Wang Chong's eyes, and at this moment, Wang Chong's mind began to rapidly calculate.
"Elder Fang, Elder Du! I need your cooperation! To the southwest, the Four Symbols Yinyang Soul Trap, Kan position! Hurry! "
These words were so sudden that even Anxi Vice Protector-General Cheng Qianli, who was standing next to Wang Chong, was taken aback. However, there were two people who were not.
"Marquis, understood!"
"Leave this matter to us!"
Two figures, with their sleeves fluttering in the wind, suddenly opened their arms like huge birds and leaped out from the army. While they were still in the air, they grabbed two large, heavy pieces of steel and threw them into the distance.
Clangclangclang!
One piece of steel after another flew into the air and plunged into the ground. Both Elder Fang and Elder Du were Saint Martial experts of Wushang Village, and in the blink of an eye, they had used these pieces of steel to lay down a massive Four Symbols Yinyang Soul Trap.
"Boom!"
Almost at the same time that the two of them laid out the Four Symbols Yin-Yang Soul Trap, a huge meteorite fell from the sky, smashing heavily into the center of the formation. Roooar! With a heaven-shaking roar, the dark green 'meteor' split open, and a Skyquaking Giant with a storm of energy rose from the formation, waving his arms. But just when he was about to begin a massacre in the army, he suddenly saw the situation around him, and his roar came to a sudden stop. The giant was dumbfounded.
Outside the formation, Elder Fang and Elder Du saw this sight and immediately understood what was going on.
"To the southwest, the Four Symbols Yinyang Soul Trap, Kan position!"
At this moment, Wang Chong's voice rang out once more.
"Hurry!"
In an instant, Elder Fang and Elder Du returned to their senses at the same time, and without another word, they immediately flew in another direction. The two Wushang Village elders finally understood what was going on. Wang Chong was roughly calculating where the giants would fall from the sky and using the Four Symbols Yinyang Soul Trap to trap them.
At a time like this, this truly was the best way to deal with them.
"To the southeast, Li position!
"To the northeast, Kun position!
"To the east, Dui position!
… …
Wang Chong raised his head to the sky, his robes flapping in the wind as he issued one order after another. In the sky above the defensive line, Elder Fang and Elder Du were running back and forth. Their speed was extremely fast, and they were constantly setting up Four Symbols Yin Yang Bewitching Arrays on the ground at an astonishing speed.
The Four Symbols Yinyang Soul Trap was an ancient formation, and while it was somewhat lacking against the massive bodies and terrifying strength of the Behemoths, it was more than enough to deal with these Skyquaking Giants.
Roooar! Roooar!
Savage roars rang out from the ground. From the sky, one Skyquaking Giant after another rose from the ground like meteors, only to be greeted by the sturdy and powerful Four Symbols Yinyang Soul Trap.
Boomboomboom! Metal clattered as the Skyquaking Giants madly attacked their surroundings, their steely fists bombarding their surroundings. But all they could see was gray. Under the influence of the formation, these giants couldn't even see the army outside the formation, much less attack.
The Four Symbols Yin Yang Confusion borrowed the power of the earth around it, so all the attacks these giants launched on the formation itself were no different from hammering the earth. There was no effect at all.
One formation after another was swiftly completed on the ground. In a few short moments, nearly fifty Skyquaking Giants had been trapped in the formations.
"Damn it! Destroy those things! "
One of the giants, whose beard and hair were all standing on end, roared furiously. Boomboomboom! Ten-some Skyquaking Giants immediately began to charge toward the formation.
But before they could reach it, the neighing of Neigh's horse interrupted their charge.
"Kill them!"
Kong Zi-an raised his sword and led a group of one hundred Wushang cavalry toward the nearest Skyquaking Giant.
"Ignorant ants!"
At the sight of the Wushang Cavalry charging at him, this eighteen -meter-tall giant gave a savage laugh. Instead of dodging, he threw out a grayish-brown rock. At the same time, he swung his steely palm at the nearest Wushang horseman with astonishing speed and power.
This palm was powerful enough to shatter steel, and even the Wushang cavalry would be doomed if struck.
