Xiuxian: When you do things to the extreme

Chapter 619 Thunderbolt
"He's started building siege engines!"

"Not only siege equipment, but also defensive buildings."

On the city wall, a group of Demon Abyss lords watched from afar, looking at the Gongshu mechanical master and Gongshu disciples busy in Xu Yang's formation, with frowns on their faces, feeling vaguely uneasy.

Unless the strength of the two sides is extremely different, the siege generally follows this process: first build siege equipment to attack the enemy's defensive buildings or even destroy the city walls, then infantry and cavalry will cover the archers to go forward to fight for the city gate, and finally break into the city to complete the capture.

This is the process for the attackers, and the defenders also have a response mechanism. They can either take the initiative to attack when the opponent builds siege equipment, or they can also deploy the same siege equipment in the city and bombard the opponent remotely, thus entering a phase of mutual consumption and exchange.

So now, should we take the initiative to attack, or engage in long-range combat?
It's a long-range attack!

During this period, Xu Yang has become notorious. He has conquered dozens of territories in a row, and they are all lords at the top of the reputation list. Now every first-level lord in the Demon Abyss knows him. A monster with extremely strong combat power has appeared in the Tower of Babel. Even the legendary heroes are no match for it, and it is difficult for second-level troops to surround and kill it.

In this case, who would dare to leave the city and fight him?

You can only play to your strengths and avoid your weaknesses, and use equipment to fight back.

The Demon Abyss lords looked around and saw that the wide city walls were filled with various defensive buildings and siege equipment, including rare equipment such as the "giant catapult", and were also equipped with a number of engineering heroes and engineering troops. It was obvious that they were well prepared to have a machine battle with the enemy.

This is the advantage of the defenders, as they can deploy equipment in advance.

But the attackers are not entirely at a disadvantage, as the teleportation point is not within the range of all the enemy's arms and attacks, including siege equipment.

Tactics such as machine bombardment can only be used when the opponent's construction is completed and the battle formation is advancing.

Before this, they could do nothing but watch the other side build siege equipment and military camps.

Xu Yang was also aware of this, so he openly built a camp outside the city, and built a public transport machine tower in the camp. He was equipped with crossbows, artillery, poison water, and everything else, directly upgrading this temporary camp into a military fortress that was armed to the teeth.

Then he began to assemble siege equipment such as ladders, battering rams, thunder chariots, and mechanical beasts.

As a special engineering unit, the efficiency of Gongshu Mechanical Division and Gongshu disciples is needless to say. Soon a batch of siege equipment appeared in front of Xu Yang, among which dozens of "Gongshu Thunderbolt Carts" were the most eye-catching.

Public transport thunder car

Equipment level: Level 1 (Epic)

Equipment attributes: 100 blunt, 80 explosive, 50 fire.

Equipment Stunt: Thunderbolt (launches the special Thunderbolt flint made by Gongshujia, which causes a violent explosion after hitting the target to kill the enemy, and ignites the difficult-to-extinguish Thunderbolt flame to cause continuous damage to the enemy and buildings)

Equipment introduction: The siege equipment made by Gongshu family with domineering mechanical technology can launch special thunderbolts at a very long distance. Its power, range and accuracy are much greater than ordinary catapults. However, it can only be operated and used by Gongshu children, and it puts a great burden on the equipment itself. It can only launch 30 thunderbolts at most, and then it needs to be inspected and the damaged equipment parts replaced.

……

Dozens of Gongshu Thunderbolt Chariots were manufactured. Beside each Thunderbolt Chariot stood two Gongshu mechanical masters or three Gongshu disciples, acting as "gunners" to operate the siege equipment.

In addition to the thunder chariots, there are also ladders and battering rams. The former can help soldiers climb the city walls, and the latter can attack the city gates. However, Xu Yang did not build too many ladders. The main weapons were battering rams and thunder chariots.

This time he brought five hundred Gongshu mechanical engineers and nine hundred Gongshu disciples, who could theoretically control five hundred and fifty Gongshu Thunderbolt chariots.

But it was just theory. As an epic machine produced by the Machinery City, the Gongshu Thunderbolt Chariot was extremely expensive and its production was limited. It took Xu Yang more than three months to accumulate 180 units, 30 of which were left in the territory to deal with emergencies.

Therefore, he can only assemble 150 units at most now.

But it's enough.

With the busy work of a group of Gongshu mechanical masters and Gongshu disciples, 150 Gongshu Thunderbolt Chariots were deployed in front of the camp gate, facing the enemy's iron wall.

In front of the Thunderbolt Chariot Formation, there was another Yellow Turban Army Formation, with hundreds of Yellow Turban strongmen in the front, 30,000 Yellow Turban infantry and Yellow Turban spearmen in the back, and hundreds of Yellow Turban sorcerers and Yellow Turban thundermen in the center, ready for battle.

This is to protect the Thunderbolt Chariot formation and prevent the enemy from becoming desperate and rushing out of the city to destroy the Thunderbolt Chariot.

The formation was arranged and prepared, and Xu Yang did not say much and directly gave the order to attack.

"boom!"

"Okay!"

Gongshu Ling smiled, his fangs pointed, but he didn't look cute or adorable at all. Instead, he revealed the dangerous aura of a warmongerer. The warlike gene in Gongshu's family was boiling in his blood. He held up the overbearing mechanical hand that was extremely inconsistent with his body shape, and drove a thunder car that he had built with his own hands.

Suddenly...

"Kakaka!"

There was a burst of mechanical sounds, and the giant mechanical arm suddenly changed its shape. A large number of steel wires, iron chains and mechanical devices extended out and attached to the Thunderbolt Car, turning the Thunderbolt Car directly into a giant mechanical beast.

Gongshu Thunderbolt Car (Strong Mechanical Hand Enhancement)
Equipment level: Level 1 (Legend)

Equipment attributes: 500 blunt, 400 explosive, 200 fire.

Equipment stunt: Thunderbolt.

Equipment introduction: Gongshu Ling uses the Thunderbolt Chariot, which is fully enhanced by the Tyrannical Mechanical Hand. It has more terrifying power, greatly improved range, accuracy, speed, and enhanced quality. It can launch ninety Thunderbolt Fire Stones without damaging the structure.

……

Gongshu Ling's domineering mechanical skills can increase the power of the equipment by 400% and the quality by 200%, directly strengthening the Gongshu Thunderbolt Chariot into a Super Gongshu Thunderbolt Chariot.

Gongshu Ling uses the domineering mechanical hand, and he can control the entire Thunderbolt car by himself. A large number of steel wires, iron cables and mechanical equipment are moved, and a special Thunderbolt fire stone is launched with amazing speed and power.

With astonishing speed and terrifying power, the specially made Thunderbolt Flint Stone rubbed against the air and ignited flames halfway through, like red fire falling from the sky, meteorites hitting the ground, heavily bombarding the enemy's iron walls and strong cities. "Boom!!!"

With a loud bang, the earth shook and the mountains shook. Flint struck the fortified city, which exploded in an instant like thunder. The stone wall that was hundreds of meters high and tens of meters wide, along with the defensive buildings on the wall, were directly knocked down by the heavy blow. Flint exploded, and hot oil rained down, covering that section of the wall, causing cries of pain to be heard everywhere.

One strike, just one strike, destroyed a small section of the city wall, and shattered all the defensive buildings, guard troops, and siege equipment on the wall, destroying them all and burning them in a sea of ​​fire.

The power of one blow is so terrifying!
"Hahaha!"

With wild laughter, Gongshu Ling became even more excited. He controlled the equipment with his domineering mechanical hands and began to prepare for the second attack.

The surrounding Gongshu mechanical masters and Gongshu disciples also took action together, controlling the Thunderbolt Chariot to blast out a rain of thunder and fire, and fiercely covered the enemy's fortified city.

"Fuck!"

"not good!"

"The other party has an epic, no, legendary engineering hero!"

Seeing this scene, the Demon Lords in the city finally woke up and came to their senses.

Although they spent a lot of money this time and got a lot of rare and even epic siege equipment.

But there is also a gap between epics. Such a terrifying attack by the opponent is definitely the work of a legendary engineering hero. With such a hero, even if it is the same epic equipment, the opponent will be better.

This was indeed the case. Faced with the ultra-long-range bombardment of Gongshu Thunderbolt Chariot, their siege equipment was simply unable to counterattack.

This is the strength of Gongshujia's domineering mechanical art, which greatly enhances the power and range of the equipment. Even if they are both epic equipment, they can rely on their range advantage and firepower to suppress the opponent.

"Boom boom boom!"

Flint rained down, bombarding the iron walls and the fortified city. All that could be heard was the sound of thunder, and all that could be seen was the raging sea of ​​fire.

Although the city wall was ten thousand meters long and dozens of meters wide, it still suffered heavy losses under the bombardment of a thunderous rain of fire and one hundred and fifty meteorites. Buildings collapsed, equipment was broken, and countless defenders were buried in the sea of ​​fire.

"Back off, back off!"

"Get back now!"

This scene made the lords of the Demon Abyss feel heartbroken. They quickly ordered the defenders on the city wall to retreat, without even caring about the siege equipment they had arranged.

But retreating cannot solve the problem. The enemy's Thunderbolt Chariots are still bombarding wildly. Seeing that the iron wall of the city is crumbling, the lords of the Demon Abyss are in a state of panic and hurriedly use special skills to resist.

"The enemy lord Bai Yuansheng used a special skill - Solid as a Rock!"

"The enemy lord Lewis used a special skill - strengthening the city defense!"

"The enemy hero "Ma Junyun" used a special skill - Iron Wall!"

"..."

Colorful lights shone in the enemy's city. With the help of many special skills, the city defense was finally stable and managed to withstand the enemy's thunder and fire rain.

but……

“This is only a temporary solution, not a permanent one!”

"The other side has a legendary engineering hero, so they must have trained the corresponding engineering troops."

"Most engineers have logistics skills and can carry a large amount of equipment and siege resources."

"They can continue their attacks until they reduce this city to ruins and bury us in a sea of ​​fire."

"We must counterattack. Who has a legendary engineering hero or siege equipment? We can't let him continue bombarding like this."

"This……"

Inside the city, everyone in the Demon Abyss racked their brains for a countermeasure, but they were helpless.

Legendary heroes are not cabbages, how can they be so easy to find. Among the hundreds of lords, they can only gather three or four legendary heroes, and they are all combat-type generals. There are no engineering-type ones at all. There are a few legendary machines, but in the current situation, they can only be cannon fodder.

What to do?

"Guard, guard your ass!"

"I told you to just charge out and crush him to death, but you insisted on defending the city."

"We have hundreds of lords, nearly a thousand heroes, and a million-strong army. How much can he stop alone?"

"Go out and kill him. Combat heroes and legendary heroes with stamina of 100 should hold him back. The others should attack the camp and destroy his siege equipment. It would be best if we kill his engineering heroes as well. Without these, I wonder how he can attack the city alone!"

"A million soldiers, if each of them spits, can drown them all!"

"kill!!!"

Everyone talked at once, and finally took decisive action, preparing to rush out of the city and turn from defense to offense.
