Outside the city, the Gris army had already approached Sila City. Although they did not have any siege weapons, they had cut down trees nearby and built some simple siege ladders to break through the city walls.
Moreover, the average strength of the Grays far surpassed that of the guards of Sila City, especially those Apocalypse Ones. They could jump up the city walls that were more than ten meters high with a single leap and kill the guards on the city walls. The remaining warriors below were ready to break down the gate at any time. The entire battle was carried out around the Apocalypse Ones in their ranks.
At this moment, the number of Heaven's Revelations in Sila City's garrison could be counted with one's fingers. There were no more than a dozen of them, and their strength was low. Most of them were Bronze and Dark Iron ranks. Silver ranks were nowhere to be seen. Facing the ferocious attacks of the Gold rank Heaven's Revelations, Sila City's garrison was at a disadvantage.
"Prepare the fire arrows!"
The archers of Gris immediately ignited the arrows wrapped in oil cloth.
"Fire!"
The fire arrows whistled as they flew towards the city walls. The guards dodged one after another. Some of the fire arrows pierced the dummies at the back, but more of them fell into Sila City!
Looking at the billowing black smoke in the city, Henry's adjutant laughed. "Haha, burn them to death!"
In Sila City.
"Quick, quick, quick! Light some bonfires here! "
Seeing that the fire arrows had come as expected, Beatrice immediately began to organize people to collect the fire arrows. At the same time, she lit bonfires in empty places to create thick smoke, creating the illusion that Sila City had been set ablaze to confuse the Gris people.
At the same time, the collected fire arrows were immediately sent to the city walls after they were extinguished and used to fight against the Gris people.
A large number of useless things in the city were sent to the city walls and thrown out like cannonballs. The waste oil was either made into simple incendiary bombs or sent to the city walls to be boiled and poured down to stop the siege. It could be said that they had made the best use of everything.
Now, the people of Sila City were united against the enemy, but the scales of victory were still tilting towards the Gris people.
Beatrice bit her lower lip and looked at the fierce battle that broke out on the city walls. She endured and endured, and with great difficulty, she resisted the urge to rush up the city walls and fight with the enemy.
"Tang En Majesty, where are your reinforcements …"
At this moment, tens of kilometers away from the east of Xila City, the reinforcements from Taris were rapidly approaching Xila City. Using a small number of armored tanks to pave the way and armored transport vehicles to carry a large number of soldiers, the steel torrent had completely crushed everything along the way. Even the ferocious daemons had taken a detour when they saw this army. Their instincts told them that these steel monsters were not to be trifled with.
The commander-in-chief of this support operation was also Nitro's grandson, Sax Irus. He was appointed as the commander-in-chief purely because Nitro wanted to create an opportunity for his grandson to perform meritorious deeds. He knew that Tang En would also be present this time, so there was absolutely no danger in this support operation, so he decisively appointed Sax as the commander-in-chief.
Sax had just hung up the phone. After a moment of silence, he picked up the walkie-talkie and said, "Flying Combat Squad, listen up. His Majesty has ordered that the Grays have begun their siege. Sila is in urgent need of support. I authorize you to take off immediately and quickly support Sila!"
An excited voice replied from the walkie-talkie, "Roger that! Brothers! It's time for us to show off our skills! Quick, quick, quick! "
Sax heard the voice from the walkie-talkie and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Ever since these guys started receiving the new combat training, they had been operating those treasures in simulated battles. They had never had the chance to personally go into battle. Today, they finally had the chance to go into battle. Of course, they would be very excited.
In the advancing convoy, the roof of some of the large transport vehicles suddenly opened to both sides, revealing the interior space. Then, the soldiers of the Flying Combat Squad rode their Comet motorcycles into the sky and whistled to show off to the infantry in the vehicles below. Then, they roared and rushed to the west.
"Tsk! These damned lucky bastards! "
"Motherf * cker! If it weren't for my fear of heights, I would've been selected during the selection of the Flying Combat Squad! "
"We finally have a chance to fight. Don't tell me we're just going to wipe their asses at the end?"
"No, don't worry. Although the Flying Combat Squad has a great air superiority and mobility advantage, the ammunition and supplies they can carry are relatively small, and the effective lethality they can create is not much. Their early departure is just a kind of deterrence. In the end, the main force still depends on us."
"Really, I'm about to go on a date with my fiancée, but we have to come here to fight. It's too troublesome. Why don't we just use the Dongfeng missile at home to blow up the enemy and be done with it?"
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
The captain next to him slapped him impatiently. "His Majesty wants a complete Sila Principality, not a mess. What's more, the enemy is too close to Sila City. It's easy to mistakenly injure friendly forces. In this case, there's no way to use weapons of mass destruction."
"In other words, if we go to war with Grace, we can start bombing Grace's city directly from hundreds of kilometers away?"
"In theory, yes, but I guess Tang En Majesty won't start a massacre. After all, he has never liked to hurt civilians."
"It's obviously a war … Tang En Majesty is really too benevolent …"
"But I have to say, it's because of his benevolence that everyone supports his rule so much."
The captain clapped his hands. "Everyone, cheer up. It's only a few dozen kilometers. With our current equipment and speed, we can get there in half an hour at most. If it weren't for the bad road conditions, we would have already been on the battlefield."
"They say it's a great opportunity to make a name for ourselves, but I'm afraid we can only clean up the mess when the time comes …"
"So, kid, are you itching for a beating? Do you really think war is a good thing? When you get on the battlefield and see dead people, don't be so scared that you pee your pants. "
"No, I won't!"
A group of veterans saw this and suddenly burst into laughter.
In the sky, the soldiers of the Flying Combat Squad were rushing toward Sila City at a very high speed with goggles on. In just a short half an hour, they saw Sila City emitting black smoke.
"Report! Sila City had already entered the range of their vision! Grace has started the siege. Thick smoke can be seen in the city, suspected to have been ignited by rockets … Eh? Wait a minute! I take back my previous report! It's not ignited, it's a bonfire set by the residents of Sila City – they are confusing the Grace people! "
"The houses in Sila City have been drenched, all rockets have failed! A large number of simple wooden sheds have been built on the streets to prevent arrows! It's impossible to determine the number of refugees on the streets! "
"Both sides are engaged in an intense exchange of fire on the city walls. It can be seen that Grace has a Gold rank Heaven's Revelation. Judging the enemy's strength, the degree of danger to us is high. Request to hover in the air to kill the Heaven's Revelation! I repeat, request to kill the Heaven's Revelation! "
"Permission granted!"
"Roger!"
After receiving the authorization order, the Flying Combat Squad approached Sila City and hovered two thousand meters above the city. Then … they opened the storage box on the side of the Comet motorcycle and took out a pile of modular parts. In just a few moments, they assembled the electromagnetic sniper rifle.
Dozens of people looked at each other, nodded, and swiftly loaded the dual armor-piercing bullets – to deal with the Heaven's Revelation, they really had to use this kind of special bullet that had a higher cost.
Then, the warriors hovering on the Comet motorcycle set up the electromagnetic sniper rifle and began to lock onto their targets one by one. At the same time, they began to adjust the shooting deviation according to the current wind speed, direction, and light. Although the electromagnetic sniper rifle's firing speed was extremely fast and the trajectory was basically straight, it would still be affected by a small amount of air friction and wind direction. After the slight deviation correction, the shooting accuracy would be higher.
It was worth mentioning that this shooting technique was not taught by Tang En. He did not understand this too in-depth knowledge and had only seen it in movies and TV shows. Therefore, he casually mentioned it to the others. In the end, when Klot heard about it, he had the dwarf assistant engineers organize their shooting experience based on their previous shooting experience and finally compiled it into a shooting teaching guide.
After carrying out targeted training according to this teaching material, the shooting accuracy of these warriors had really improved by a lot.
"Got you …"
Through the optical scope, a warrior locked onto the head of a Gold-tier Heaven's Revelation who was slaughtering everyone on the city wall. His finger was on the trigger, quietly waiting for the others to lock onto the target so that the captain could give the order to shoot.
After a short wait, the captain's urgent "Fire" command sounded, and they immediately fired!
Dozens of special bullets were pushed out of the ejection trajectory by the electromagnetic effect, flying over a distance of two thousand meters at a speed several times the speed of sound. They directly tore through the blood aura armor of the Heaven's Revelation and pierced through their chests. The powerful kinetic energy tore through their flesh and bones, and the huge pressure squeezed out a large amount of flesh fragments from the back – if it was an ordinary person, this bullet would have shattered their waist, but the Heaven's Revelation's body was stronger than an ordinary person's, so this 20mm caliber electromagnetic sniper rifle could not destroy them.
The Heaven's Revelations who were originally showing off on the city wall suddenly died at the same time, which naturally caused a great shock. In particular, the impact of being hit by the large-caliber electromagnetic sniper rifle was so great that for a moment, the people on both sides were stunned.
After a short moment of silence, the guards of Sila City finally came to their senses and cheered.
No matter where the attack came from or how strange it was, at least it was the support of a friendly side!
On the other hand, on Grace's side, the instant death of the Heaven's Revelations caused a great panic.
"Damn it! What's going on!? How did they all suddenly die!? "
Henry's adjutant was originally looking at the battle on the city wall from afar. Almost half of the guards had been cleared by the Heaven's Revelations, and they could start attacking soon, but in the end, the Heaven's Revelations all died in an instant!?
What kind of joke is this!?
