Daqin: I, Fusu, can summon the undead

Chapter 82 The Powerful Carlos
"Fire arrows!"

Looking at Sang Biao riding his horse back, the Queen of Jingjue immediately gave orders.

It is undeniable that this is a great opportunity to kill the Undead Commander, and she does not want to miss it.

Following the order of the Queen of Jingjue, the archers on the city wall, who had been unable to hold back any longer, shot hundreds of arrows in an instant, like a swarm of bees, at Sang Biao and Carlos, including some heavy crossbows as strong as spears.

"Lightning barrier!"

Hearing the voice behind him, Carlos just waved behind him.

The next second, an electromagnetic shield with a diameter of 20 meters directly blocked the undead behind them.

The densely-shot arrows hit the shield, and it was suspended in mid-air as if it were hit by a floating spell, so that even the heavy crossbow arrows could not break through the barrier.

The fire of Carlos' soul fluctuated, and he and Sang Biao continued to leave, without looking back or stopping for a moment.

"this?"

Seeing this scene, the Queen of Jingjue and the soldiers on the city wall were dumbfounded.

They had never seen such a scene before, and it was like a miracle to them.

'No wonder he became the leader of the Skeleton Mages!'

Sang Biao also looked sideways. Thunder, this is a natural attribute that counters the undead, and it is more restraining than the light attribute. But Carlos is actually a skeleton mage with thunder attribute. With this attribute, Carlos is enough to challenge the skeleton monarch.

On the city wall, the Queen of Jingjue watched the backs of more than a hundred undead spirits leaving, and helplessly instructed the commanders of the Western Region coalition forces next to her: "Everyone, the enemy may not attack the city on time. Notify all soldiers in the city to speed up preparations and strengthen vigilance at night to deal with the enemy's attack on the city!"

"it is good!"

The commanders of the Western Regions all nodded heavily. No one had any objection or dissatisfaction with the Queen of Jingjue being their commander-in-chief.

The next evening.

Three hundred cannons were pulled to the front of the Undead formation, arranged in five rows, with their muzzles pointed at the walls of Canyon City.

"What is this thing that the undead dragged to the front of the formation?"

"A ballista? It doesn't look like one!"

“I always have a bad feeling!”

On the city wall, the soldiers of the Western Region Allied Forces looked at the cannons arranged in five rows in front of the Undead formation and speculated and discussed. Although they didn't know what they were, they knew that the Undead would not bother to place useless objects in front of the formation.

"Commander-in-chief, all the artillery pieces are in place!"

In the army of undead, a death warrior reported to Sang Biao.

"Fire immediately!" Sang Biao gave the order immediately.

~~~
"fire!"

In front of the Undead Army, as Sang Biao's order was conveyed, the commanding gunner Undead immediately shouted orders loudly.

Following the order, sixty artillery pieces in the first row fired at the same time, followed by the second row, the third row, the fourth row, and the fifth row.

The rumbling sound of cannons continued to ring out in front of the undead army, with each row of firing only thirty seconds apart. The rising white smoke even covered the front of the undead army.

In the white smoke, a large number of undead were constantly cleaning the gun barrels, loading shells, and then firing. It took just three minutes to complete a round of bombardment.

Artillery shells whizzed continuously onto the walls of Canyon City and into the city, and the rumbling sounds of the explosions were as dense as thunder in a heavy rainstorm.

On the walls of Canyon Pass, dense artillery shells continued to bombard the walls, causing them to shake continuously and deafening the ears of the defenders on the walls.

Some of the shells hit the battlements, instantly shattering them. The scattered shrapnel and debris pierced through the dozen or so Western Region defenders near the battlements like bullets.

In the city, shells kept falling and exploding, with loud bangs that collapsed houses and killed and injured soldiers.

Almost every second, shells were falling, creating thick flames and smoke. Shrapnel flew everywhere, piercing Western Region soldiers. Some unfortunate ones were hit directly by shells at the foot, and instantly exploded into a pile of minced meat.

Soldiers whose hands, feet or abdomens were shot by shrapnel lay on the ground wailing.

"Someone come quickly! There are wounded soldiers here!"

"Hold on, brother. I'll help you stop the bleeding!"

In the city, people were injured or killed almost every second. The soldiers in charge of rescue kept running, hurriedly stopping the bleeding of the wounded, and carrying the wounded to the back of the city.

"Queen, take shelter behind the city wall!"

On the city wall, amid the constant shock of the artillery bombardment, Han Zhong spoke anxiously to the Queen of Jingjue, and hurriedly went down the city gate tower with his personal guards holding shields to protect the Queen of Jingjue.

Behind the city wall, in the blind spot of artillery fire, many Western Region soldiers were crowded.

These soldiers watched the explosions in the city and listened to the continuous rumbling sounds of the explosions. Even though these soldiers were firm in their beliefs, they couldn't help but tremble at this moment.

The Queen of Jingjue, who was protected by soldiers and came behind the city wall, couldn't help but grit her teeth when she saw this scene.

The weapons placed by the undead in front of the formation were beyond everyone's expectations and left everyone helpless.

The power was huge, and the distance was over 2,000 steps. Even the largest crossbow was out of reach at this distance. They could only passively take the beating, without any ability to fight back.

"Queen Jingjue, this is not a solution! We must find a way to fight back! Or find a way to resist the enemy's attack."

The Wusun leader hiding behind the city wall saw the Queen of Jingjue coming down and hurried over to say, "If we take such a passive attack, the soldiers in the city will probably be consumed by the undead."

The Queen of Jingjue said immediately: "Since the enemy's weapons cannot reach the city wall, they can only concentrate their soldiers on the city wall..."

"Crash..." Before he could finish his words, the city wall on the left suddenly collapsed amidst the continuous explosions and shocks.

"The wall collapsed!"

Seeing the collapsed city wall, soldiers on the left shouted loudly.

Hearing the noise, the Queen of Jingjue stopped talking and quickly looked to the left.

The left wall had collapsed, leaving a gap of more than ten meters. Most of the soldiers hiding on and behind the wall were killed or injured by the collapsed wall, and there were wails everywhere.

"The wall on the right has also collapsed."

Then another shout came from the right.

The right side of the city wall collapsed more than 20 meters due to continuous bombardment.

"Queen, it's not safe behind the city wall. Follow me and leave the city wall!"

Seeing that two sections of the city wall had collapsed in succession and that they would have to face the charge of the undead, Han Zhong immediately called on his personal soldiers to protect the Queen of Jingjue and retreat.

"The Undead are attacking!"

After the Queen of Jingjue withdrew, soldiers on the remaining walls shouted loudly towards the city.

"Brothers, never give the undead a chance to break through the city. Kill!"

Hearing the shouts, the soldiers behind the city were frightened, but under the leadership of the generals, they all took up their weapons and gathered towards the gap where the city wall collapsed. At this time, not a single soldier deserted.

Outside the city, looking at the collapsed city walls, amid the sound of cannon fire, the skeleton soldiers roared in unison and finally launched a charge towards the Canyon City.

The undead were like a raging flood, filling the canyon and rushing towards the canyon city that was like a floodgate.
