Nuclear Warlord

Chapter 72
At the same time, Xu Feng'er in the City Lord's Mansion was also startled by the loud noise.

After learning that it was a beast horde, his expression immediately became a little excited.

"The tide of beasts is coming, and Baishi City will be in chaos. It is a good opportunity to kill the dog emperor and kill the disciple prince. God help me!"

Holding the dagger, Xu Feng'er quietly walked out of the City Lord's Mansion.

When Li Changfeng came to the city wall, the beast horde had already been repulsed, and six huge square oil lamps were hung high, but five of the six sides were covered, only one side was exposed, and the five sides faced the candlelight It's all mirrors.

This is the searchlight. Under the effect of the mirror, six dazzling lights were shot out, and when they fell on the blood-colored plain, they lit up all at once, shining back and forth, looking for the evil beasts that slipped through the net.

Seeing Li Changcheng approaching, the deputy commander Liang Liu hurriedly stepped forward and bowed, and reported the battle situation with admiration on his face: "Report to Your Highness, thanks to the searchlight you invented, we discovered the beast tide early, and your wise and powerful designation plan..."

When they heard abnormal noises in the mountains outside the city, the city guards immediately activated their searchlights. It was precisely because of this that they discovered the evil beasts that attacked Baishi City at night and counterattacked.

Li Changfeng waved his hand: "Put after the flattery, let's get to the point!"

Liang Liu smiled and stopped flattering: "A total of [-] evil beasts have been killed this time, and the injured evil beasts are not counted..."

Hearing this, Li Changfeng showed a satisfied smile.

Such a record is still very good.

But Liang Liu's next words made him twitch.

"A total of [-] shells were used!"

Li Changfeng said with a painful face: "Why did you use so many shells? Do you know how difficult it is to make a shell? Are you just focusing on the fun of shooting and not considering the cost?"

At present, the shells have not been mass-produced on the assembly line, and the manufacture of each shell is extremely cumbersome and expensive.

It can be said that every shot of a cannonball is an investment of about a hundred taels, and there is no doubt that it is a gold-swallowing beast.

Liang Liu hurriedly shouted: "Your Highness, killing two evil beasts with one shell on average is already pretty good, and we didn't waste it!"

Li Changfeng waved his hands helplessly: "Okay, my prince didn't mean to blame you!"

Then he looked at the corpse of the evil beast under the searchlight outside the city wall, feeling a little heavy.

The animal horde broke out one after another, which was abnormal.

After pondering for a moment, Li Changfeng asked, "How many beasts are there?"

Mentioning this, Liang Liu's expression became serious, and he said in a deep voice: "It is estimated that there are no less than a thousand. If the artillery is not powerful enough to scare them away, you will have to pay a very painful price to kill them!"

Hearing this number, Li Changfeng felt even more heavy.

The number of beast hordes in the previous two times was far less than this time.

Under normal circumstances, the evil beasts suffered heavy losses the first two times, and it took a long time to recuperate before the beast horde broke out again.

No matter how you look at this beast tide, it's all weird.

After pondering for a moment, Li Changfeng said solemnly: "Tomorrow, let the investigation corps go out of the city to investigate the reason for the successive outbreaks of beast hordes."

Liang Liu gave a military salute, and said in a solemn tone: "Your subordinate obeys orders!"

As the general defending the city on the front line, he naturally felt that this beast horde was not easy.

He followed Li Changfeng to build Baishi City from a dilapidated small city into the majestic city it is today. He has deep feelings and does not want any accidents to happen to Baishi City.

At this moment, without a sound, two figures jumped onto the city wall without making any sound, which was extremely secretive.

These two were exactly Feng Shi and Zi Yang who came to investigate when they heard the sound of the cannon.

After seeing Li Changfeng, the two were slightly stunned, and then looked at the big black iron pipe with the thickness of an adult's head beside him, with puzzled expressions on their faces.

At this time, wisps of white smoke were still coming out of the big iron pipe, filled with a pungent smell, aiming at the direction where the evil beast outside the city was attacking.

But at this time, the herd of beasts outside the city had disappeared, leaving only corpses everywhere, and countless large pits, with flames and gunpowder still emitting bursts of bloody smell.

The beast tide has retreated!
How can this be?

How long is this!
How could it be possible for so many of these evil beasts to die so quickly?
How did they die?

Who was killed?
Or was killed by something!
Feng Shi searched the city wall with his eyes, and landed on the terrifying huge ballista.

Was it killed by the ballista?
It doesn't make sense!

There was no long crossbow on the body of the dead evil beast.

Moreover, how can the huge sound be made by the ballista?

In the end, Master Feng still set his eyes on the big iron pipe, and gradually revealed an expression of disbelief in his eyes.

Apart from this strange food that she had never seen before, what else could make the sound of thunder and kill so many evil beasts?

What the hell is this! ?

A monstrous wave rose in Feng Shi's heart.

Before he had time to observe, there was a violent shout: "Who are you? Stop!"

Surprisingly, it was Liang Liu, the deputy commander, who discovered the existence of the two.

Since the artillery was invented and put into use, it has been the top secret of the entire Baishi City, and the city wall is not accessible to just anyone.

The two acted suspiciously. In his opinion, they were either spies or assassins.

Seeing that they had been exposed, Feng Shi and Ziyang didn't dare to stay on the city wall any longer. With a leap, they quickly moved towards the distance. This behavior confirmed the vice commander's conjecture.

Liang Liu's eyes suddenly burst out with strong murderous intent, and he shouted: "All officers and men obey the order, arrest them for me!"

Then threatened the two of them: "Stop quickly and get caught, or don't blame me for being rude!"

Feng Shi and Zi Yang didn't want to stop, instead they sped up the speed. The angry deputy commander shouted angrily: "Calista, shoot these two bastards to death!"

The crossbowmen were about to make a move, but were stopped by Li Changfeng.

"No need, let's look at the methods of this prince."

He took out the musket that he brought from Liang Dafu today from his back, and aimed at the two people who were fleeing quickly.

With a sneer on the corner of his mouth, Li Changfeng pulled the trigger.

"boom!"

There was a bang, the flames burst out, and the bullets were fired at a speed invisible to the naked eye.

"puff!"

I just felt something hit my back, and the huge impact made Feng Shi jump forward suddenly, almost staggering and falling to the ground.

At the same time, there was a sharp pain, and a mouthful of blood suddenly spewed out, and the eyes were dark, and he almost fainted from the pain.

"Flee outside the city!"

Master Feng bit his tongue to keep himself awake, and pulled Ziyang to jump off the city wall.

It has to be said that Master Feng's strength is astonishing. Even though he was seriously injured, he was still able to move freely and horizontally on the city wall, and did not fall directly.

Although Liang Liu was surprised by the strength of the muskets, he did not forget the business, and angrily ordered: "Archers, shoot them to death!"

A group of archers immediately ran to the battlements to shoot. A large number of arrows roared out, but they were blocked by Feng Shi and Ziyang with their swords, and none of them shot.

In a blink of an eye, the two had already landed and fled towards the distance.

Li Changfeng didn't want to let the tiger go back to the mountain, and he didn't want to let the secret of Baishi City be leaked out, so he said decisively: "The searchlights lock the two people, and the prince is bombarded with artillery, and they must be killed!"

Liang Liu took the order and immediately ordered to open fire.

boom!boom!boom!
After several violent explosions, the ground outside the city, which was originally riddled with holes, had several huge craters out of thin air.

In the dense gunpowder smoke, the two of them had disappeared.
