Translator: 549690339
Tang Zhen didn’t get too close to the corpse clan’s city. Instead, he advanced to a suitable distance before stopping.
As the convoy stopped, the Warriors of the Holy Dragon City immediately jumped off the chariots and began to set up a defensive position to defend against the zombie monsters that tried to rush over and stop the bombardment.
Nearly a hundred mines were placed in front of the defensive position. Due to the characteristics of the undead race, these mines did not need to be buried and could be placed directly on the ground.
The Centaurea Valley Warriors who had followed the Holy Dragon City soldiers here were dazzled by their Swift movements and all kinds of weapons and equipment. From time to time, they would exchange a few words with their companions and guess the use of the weapons and equipment.
Hundred Flower Valley’s City Master was watching intently. As more and more weapons appeared, the surprise on her face gradually deepened, and the smile on the corner of her mouth became more and more obvious.
After the temporary position was set up, the Super light howitzer was also ready. Tang Zhen stepped forward and adjusted the coordinates before starting to fire!
The deafening sounds of the cannons continued to ring out, forcing the Holy Dragon City Warriors to plug their ears and open their mouths to prevent their eardrums from being damaged.
The wild beasts that were used to carry supplies in hundred Flower Valley were so scared that their legs were shaking, and they kept letting out low growls. If not for the soldiers of the tower, they would have fled in all directions.
As soon as this terrifying weapon of war showed its might, it caused a huge number of casualties to the corpse race!
Through the map view, Tang Zhen could clearly see countless zombie monsters and undead clan being hit by the cannonballs. Then, under the violent shock waves, they were torn into countless pieces of charred meat.
Broken armor and clothing flew in the air, leaving these remains without a single piece of clothing.
A corpse monster Centurion looked at the sky blankly. With its remaining thoughts, it still could not figure out where the cannonballs that fell from the sky came from, let alone lie down and dodge them.
As the Cannonball hit the ground, countless gravel also dodged. They mixed with the shrapnel of the Cannonball and instantly swept across the surrounding tens of meters, shattering countless zombies.
A group of saber-shield ghost soldiers tried to use their shields to block the flying gravel, but their shields were smashed to pieces. The saber-shield ghost soldiers hiding behind them were also shot with bloody holes and fell limply to the ground.
Although he wasn’t dead, he was half-crippled!
With Tang Zhen’s map perspective as a support, every time the Holy Dragon City fired, it would bring great damage to the undead. The more undead gathered, the Cannonball would land in that place, setting off a wave of blood and flesh.
Not long after, the surroundings of the corpse clan’s city were filled with wreckage and smoke.
The constant cannon sounds had already caused the corpse race to be in complete chaos.
Unlike the undead monsters that only had the desire to kill and devour, the undead creatures had simple thoughts, and the continuous bombardment had already made them feel fear.
As they dodged, they sent out a kind of corpse bird that was about half a meter long and began to circle around the city of the corpse clan, trying to find the enemy to attack.
Tang Zhen wasn’t far away from the undead clan’s city, so he was quickly discovered by the scouting undead bird. The bird then reported his location to a corpse clan’s Centurion.
The corpse race Centurion glared at the Holy Dragon city’s Army and then ran into the strange-looking corpse race tower. In less than two minutes, Tang Zhen saw a large group of corpse race heavy cavalry rushing out of the tower.
Tang Zhen did not dare to be careless in the face of such a powerful undead army. He immediately ordered the machine guns and mortar cannoneers to get ready. At the same time, he ordered all the Holy Dragon city’s soldiers to immediately switch to using steel core armor-piercing bullets.
Seeing this, the Lord of Centaurea Valley also ordered his Warriors to prepare their bows and javelins, getting ready for battle.
The Centaurea Valley Castellan knew very well that compared to the Holy Dragon city’s weapons and equipment, his subordinates ‘cold weapons were of little use. However, he still had to at least show his attitude.
As the corpse race’s heavy cavalry moved out, the ground immediately shook. Looking from afar, a black mass of heavy-Armored Cavalry was like a raging wave, rapidly pouncing toward the Holy Dragon city’s formation.
Due to the characteristics of the undead race, the undead cavalrymen could start charging from a very long distance without having to worry about whether the warhorses under them could withstand such a long-distance charge.
Smoke and dust filled the sky as the corpse race’s heavy cavalry arrived in an instant!
Tang Zhen could even see the blood-red eyes of the corpse race’s heavy cavalrymen under their helmets. These tall cavalrymen were extremely skilled in driving their war horses. They waved their war blades and Spears, and their killing intent soared into the sky.
Such a scene would cause one to have a sorrowful thought of being undefeatable!
If a timid person had encountered such a scene, they would have probably been scared witless and turned around to escape.
However, the Holy Dragon city’s soldiers had already been baptized in many big scenes. Compared to the anxious hundred Flower Valley’s soldiers, the Holy Dragon city’s camp was as stable as a rock!
“Fire!”
fire! Tai Seng roared, and the machine guns and mortars shot out flames at the same time. The metal barrage instantly collided with the Armored Cavalry formed by the corpse race’s heavy cavalry.
The armor worn by the corpse race’s heavy cavalry could perfectly resist the attack of swords and arrows, but in front of the firearms in the original world, it was still extremely fragile.
The whistling bullets made countless round holes in the armor of the corpse race’s heavy cavalrymen. After the bullets rolled a few times in their bodies, they rushed out of their bodies, deformed the armor behind them, and shattered it.
The continuous bullets shot into the bodies of the corpse race’s heavy cavalrymen, turning the bodies under the armor into a mess. Minced meat and blood seeped out from the gaps of the broken armor and fell on the war horses.
The dense barrage of bullets not only turned the undead cavalrymen into mincemeat, but also the warhorses they were riding on. The bullets either bit off a large piece of their muscles, peeled off a large piece of their skin, or pierced through their stomachs, dragging their internal organs far away.
The numbing sensation of the undead race towards pain caused these war horses to persist and run far away even though they were covered in injuries. Only then did they unwillingly fall to the ground.
The mines on the ground exploded one after another. Unfortunately, they didn’t cause much damage to the corpse race’s heavy cavalry, but they successfully slowed down their speed.
The appearance of machine guns and cannons caused the cavalry forces in the original world to withdraw from the stage of history. In the loucheng world, Tang Zhen’s machine guns and mortars were still the fatal nemesis of the undead heavy cavalry!
It was only a short distance of a few dozen meters, but the corpse race’s heavy cavalry had paid a heavy price. The ground was covered in countless corpses!
However, such a terrifying massacre didn’t scare the remaining undead heavy cavalry. They still stepped on the corpses of their comrades and continued to charge towards the enemy!
This was the rule of the heavy-armored cavalrymen. They would never stop charging until they broke through the enemy’s formation, even if they died in the process.
They were like sharp arrows that were shot at the brazier. They would either knock over the brazier or be caught in the brazier and set ablaze. There was no second path to choose!
The Holy Dragon city’s soldiers armed with automatic rifles also joined the attack at this moment. The sound of gunfire filled the entire space in an instant.
With their participation, the remaining corpse race’s heavy cavalrymen found it even more difficult to move. They were like bamboo rafts in the middle of a stormy sea, constantly being broken apart before finally falling to the ground, their flesh and blood mixing together with the soil.
When the gunshots stopped, the Holy Dragon city’s soldiers quickly put away their guns and stood up. They began to inspect their firearms and replenish their ammunition.
They had calm expressions on their faces, as if the terrifying corpse race heavy cavalry that they had just killed were just some random monsters in the wilderness!
The hundred Flower Valley’s soldiers did not join in the fight. With the Holy Dragon city’s terrifying firepower, they could only watch the show.
Although they didn’t participate in the battle, as the most direct witnesses of this battle, the deep shock and horror in their hearts couldn’t be dispelled for a long time!
