Daqin: I, Fusu, can summon the undead

Chapter 369 Using Sakura as Cannon Fodder 1
Looking at the rockets exploding in the sky, Jiang Ziya immediately gave the order:
"Order the left wing to immediately set up the Three Talents Formation to guard against the attacking army from the north."

"Front troops, immediately form a defensive formation to guard against the enemy from Sishui Pass!"

"Order the right wing to immediately conduct another reconnaissance in the right wing direction."

As the order was issued and the flag was waved, the Xiqi army formation changed immediately. The original offensive formation facing Sishui Pass quickly turned into a defensive formation focusing on the right.

"Reinforcements are coming!"

On the city wall of Sishui Pass, Han Rong and other defenders also saw the rockets flying in the sky with white smoke and being detonated by magic, and they were immediately excited.

Because of the loss of Qinglong Pass and Jiameng Pass, Sishui Pass has been isolated. Now, with millions of troops from Xiqi approaching, the morale of the soldiers in the city is low. No matter how many reinforcements come, even if there are only 10,000 or 20,000, as long as there are reinforcements, it can boost the morale of the city and give them a better chance of defending the city.

In the sky, after one round of rockets exploded, a second round of rockets came again, with a total of 30,000 rockets.

This time, Jiang Ziya didn't even need to give orders. The Xiqi army once again released all kinds of densely packed spells, rushing straight at the rockets flying in the sky.

However, this time the 30,000 rockets were just the beginning, and the subsequent rockets were dense and continuous.

Fifty miles away from the Xiqi army, 30,000 multiple rocket vehicles were continuously firing various conventional rockets.

A large number of Sakura Country soldiers are constantly restocking the empty rocket vehicles with rockets and then continuing to fire.

After joining the Lich Queen, Sakura Star had been training the army desperately and preparing a large amount of war materials because he knew he was destined to be cannon fodder. Especially in terms of long-range strike weapons, the stockpiled rockets alone could not be described as piled up like mountains, but simply piled up like mountains.

At a distance of 20 to 30 kilometers from the Xiqi army, artillery positions were also being rapidly constructed. A large number of 150mm to 320mm towed artillery pieces were already in place under the busy work of countless soldiers, and next to these artillery pieces were trucks loaded with artillery shells.

"fire!"

After these artillery pieces were adjusted, they began to roar without any unified command. In other words, the order they received was to fire as soon as they were in position, without waiting for a unified order to fire.

As the first shot was fired, more and more shells flew out from the muzzle and shot towards Xiqi's army.

Further ahead of the artillery position, fully armed tanks and armored troop carriers were rushing through the wilderness towards the Xiqi army.

~~~
In front of the Xiqi army, Jiang Ziya had been paying attention to the situation in the sky.

When Jiang Ziya saw a large number of dense black spots flying in the sky below the rocket, his eyes narrowed immediately.

At a glance, they could see clearly what was flying. They were cone-shaped metals of various sizes. Although they were not as fast as the pillar-shaped objects that were trailing white smoke, they were not slow either. If these things were allowed to fall into the army, the soldiers below the Jindan level would probably suffer many casualties.

"Watch out for the hurling stones! Smash them all!"

"Prepare defensive spells!"

After receiving the order, Xiqi's army immediately released more spells, and colorful lights flew out from Xiqi's army. At the same time, khaki shields also rose up from Xiqi's army.

"Boom~"

A few seconds later, as the spell hit the shells flying in the sky, many of them were detonated directly, and more were directly destroyed by the spell in the sky without exploding.

But a few shells missed and whistled onto the shields of the Xiqi army, creating balls of fire covering an area of ​​20 to 30 meters, with shrapnel flying in all directions like fairy flowers.

However, neither the missed shells, rockets, nor the shrapnel from the explosion could break through Xiqi's defenses.

“It can actually explode!”

Looking at the shells that hit the shield and exploded, Jiang Ziya narrowed his eyes slightly and his expression became serious.

This kind of conical object can be dangerous to cultivators below the Jindan level just by its speed, and it will explode. Even a Jindan-level cultivator will be killed if hit directly. Of course, he was not serious because of this. The power of the shells was not as strong as an arrow shot by a Jindan cultivator. What made him serious was that these conical objects did not have any mana fluctuations, but they could produce explosions.

This represents so many meanings.

"Prime Minister, the enemy is attacking from the right!"

In the sky, Lei Zhenzi, who had been observing from a high vantage point, shouted loudly to Jiang Ziya.

Sakura's 50,000 tank vanguard troops had already rushed to within ten miles of Xiqi's army, and the front tanks had even started firing.

Jiang Ziya pondered for a moment, then instructed Yang Jian beside him: "Yang Jian, go to the enemy camp and ask them who they are and why they are against Xiqi."

After saying that, Jiang Ziya also gave Yang Jian a token and a small flag.

"I obey your orders!" After taking the token and the small flag, Yang Jian immediately turned into a beam of light and rushed straight towards the oncoming Sakura army.

In just a breath, Yang Jian arrived at the Sakura Army. He quickly looked at the steel torrent below and the chariots speeding on the ground, and his eyes showed curiosity and surprise.

Surprised that the people in these chariots were all sickly mortals with strange energy in their bodies. Curious that these steel objects were not magic weapons and spiritual treasures, but could actually run fast on the ground.

This couldn't help but slow down his flying speed a little.

The next second, Yang Jian had leaped over the torrent of steel in front of him and arrived at the artillery position of the Sakura Army. Looking at the busy soldiers below and the cannons constantly firing shells, curiosity in his eyes became even greater.

When these cannons are fired, there is a brief burst of subtle fire energy, but this only launches things out. There is no mana fluctuation in launching the cone-like objects, so how can there be an explosion?

Next came the rocket launcher, which seemed to rely on the combustion of some substance to shoot things out, and the cylinders shot out seemed to be filled with this flammable substance. It was the first time he had seen this new weapon.

Another second later, Yang Jian came to the rear of the Sakura Army, where he saw a huge base vehicle about fifty meters long and wide and more than ten meters high moving slowly forward on the ground. There was a flag on it that looked like a dog-skin plaster. He felt several slightly stronger auras in it, and it was very dark.

This made Yang Jian frown.

Besides, he didn't need to find any generals or anything like that.

Yang Jian threw the token and flag in his hand directly in front of the moving base vehicle.

After the token and flag left Yang Jian's hands, they quickly grew larger in the wind.

In a breath, the token turned into a huge wall and fell in front of the base vehicle, with the two big words "No War" engraved on it.

The flag also turned into a huge flag a hundred meters high and was inserted into the ground. On the flag were inscribed four big characters: Xiqi~Envoy.

Then, Yang Jian descended from the sky, stood on the exemption sign, and asked loudly: "Who are you from? Why are you against Xiqi?"

Looking at the huge token and flag that suddenly appeared, as well as Yang Jian on the flag, dozens of twin machine guns, artillery, and laser cannons on the front of the base vehicle were all aimed at Yang Jian.

The Sakura soldiers in the base vehicle do not recognize the words on the exemption sign and the flag.

"Wait! Stop!"

In the base vehicle, Fusu raised his hand to stop Commander Sakura from giving the order to open fire.

The base vehicle slowly stopped, and then a passage opened at the top.
