The Emperor is Above

Chapter 562: The Attack Methods of the Titans
"Boom-"

"Boom-"

"Boom-"

Hundreds of giant warriors marched forward with heavy steps.

Every time they took a step forward, they would smash the huge shields in their hands to the ground.

The seemingly simple deterrent method made the hearts of the Xing State soldiers on the opposite side beat even heavier.

"What a tall giant!"

Many soldiers of the State of Xing had seen giants with their own eyes. When they were resisting the attack of the Black Wind Tribe in the fifteen cities in the southeast, they had witnessed the might of the giant slave warriors of the Wangmang clan.

However, the hundreds of giant warriors in front of them were even taller and stronger than the Wangmang giant warriors, and most of them were four feet and five feet tall.

A few of the giant warriors who took the lead were over five meters tall, more than ten meters taller than the Wangmang giant, and they looked terrifying.

Shangqing Huo Yun had also heard of the four ancient giant clans. He frowned and said, "The giant warriors of the Qingtian clan may not be easy to deal with."

Most of the soldiers of the State of Xing did not know about the giant clan of the Qingtian clan. In their eyes, all giants were equally terrifying and powerful.

Just as the soldiers were rejoicing that the one hundred giant warriors were separated from them by a ravine and that it was not difficult for them to defend the thirty-zhang width with the help of crossbows and sharp arrows, Shangqing Huo Yun's expression suddenly changed.

"Bang-"

Hundreds of giant warriors suddenly thrust their giant shields into the ground, forming a defensive wall about four feet high, and then each of them raised a round stone bomb with a diameter of five feet.

It turned out that behind the hundreds of giants of the Qingtian clan, there were thousands of young and strong men from the Xianyu clan driving horse-drawn carriages loaded with huge stone bombs.

Without waiting for Lord Huo Yun to open his mouth to warn, hundreds of giant warriors of the Qingtian clan threw huge stone bullets over like throwing shot put.

"call--"

The stone bullet, which was over one meter in diameter and weighed several thousand pounds, came whistling with a fierce wind and flew over a natural trench of more than two hundred feet in an instant.

"Bam—"

"Rumble--"

With the loud sound of the collision, the five-foot-thick defensive wall was instantly shattered, the huge crossbow cart was broken into pieces, and countless Xing soldiers had their limbs torn apart and their flesh and blood splattered.

Just the first round of stone bombs thrown by hundreds of giant warriors resulted in the tragic deaths of hundreds of Xing soldiers and nearly a thousand injuries.

Just one round of attacks caused such heavy losses that even the brave and skilled soldiers of the Xing State almost had a psychological breakdown, and the defensive formation formed by the natural rift could no longer be maintained.

Shangqing Huo Yun shook his head helplessly when he saw this: "Well, each unit should retreat back to the city one by one. I will lead the rear guard to cover everyone's retreat."

"Ow—"

The tens of thousands of elite cavalrymen who had been prepared for a long time saw that the morale of the Xing soldiers was low and they began to retreat. They howled and screamed loudly and ran wildly towards the passage which was only thirty feet wide.

Although the Xianyu people have an absolute advantage in numbers, they will not use their flesh and blood to attack the defensive positions. In front of them are two rows of twenty huge thunder beasts, which are enough to break down the last defense of Xing State.

"Rune Arrows, shoot at me!"

Shangqing Huo Yun aimed at a thunder beast with a serious expression, drew his bow with full force and shot it out.

Following him were hundreds of private soldiers, all armed with rune longbows and rune explosive arrows.

"Boom boom boom--" Even though the sharp swords and the explosions failed to seriously injure the thunder beasts, they still caused them to wail in pain and slowed down their advance.

The thunder beasts that were originally attacking the army formation were unwilling to charge, leaving the Xianyu cavalry following closely behind helpless. They had to ask the Qingtian giant to take charge again.

"Boom boom boom——"

Faced with hundreds of huge stone bullets, Shangqing Huo Yun was extremely helpless. Fortunately, most of the soldiers retreated in a very orderly manner and entered the city very quickly. Seeing this, he also ordered a gradual retreat.

Without the powerful enemy blocking them, the thunder beasts used their huge bodies to crush the obstacles in front of the passage into pieces.

Tens of thousands of elite cavalrymen also rushed over closely behind. They realized that Huo Yun, who was providing the final protection, must be a big shot from the State of Xing, and they attempted to surround and kill him outside the city.

Fortunately, the natural trench was only two miles away from the border fortress, and the crossbows and rune arrows with the longest range could easily cover this area and protect their evacuation.

"Kill, kill, kill—"

Seeing tens of thousands of Xing soldiers carrying the wounded and the dead retreating into the city in a very orderly manner, the pursuing General Xian Yu felt somewhat unwilling to accept this.

However, after seeing Shangqing Huo Yun enter the city gate, the city gate was not closed immediately. The eyes of the Xianyu general lit up and he led his troops to charge.

He attempted to use the speed of his war horses to lead the cavalry directly into the open city gate, seize the opportunity to seize the gate and make a great contribution to capturing the city.

When he was less than a hundred feet away from the city gate, he was surprised to see a row of four strangely shaped chariots pouring out of the city gate.

"Boom boom boom——"

Before General Xian Yu could think about it, he felt his body blown away by a violent explosion, and the Xian Yu cavalry who were rushing in the front instantly turned into a pile of minced meat.

Immediately afterwards, one armored vehicle after another poured out of the city, quickly forming a long battle line and bombarding the tens of thousands of Xianyu cavalry.

Some of the Xianyu cavalry who were lucky enough not to be hit in the first round of attacks brandished their swords with anger, trying to destroy these strange chariots.

However, the swords hit the chariot hard, and the armored shell made of refined materials was intact, without even the slightest scratch. Instead, the swords made of animal bones broke one after another.

"Boom boom boom——"

The fierce crystal bombs continued to explode, and the armored vehicles took advantage of this opportunity to kill people without mercy, not caring at all about the stunned fish that had escaped the net.

These Xianyu cavalrymen attracted the attention of the Xing soldiers on the city wall, and they happily shot these confused guys with rune arrows.

The brutal massacre of tens of thousands of elite cavalrymen shocked the entire Xianyu army. Even King Xianyu frowned:
"Eagle Archer, go forward and attack those chariots with eagle feather arrows!"

Under the order of King Xianyu, hundreds of archers serving as the royal guards stepped forward with solemn expressions, and after walking to the side of the natural trench, they drew out huge arrows one after another.

The bows and arrows in the hands of the archers are almost as tall as their bodies. They are made of polished snow-white animal bones, and the bowstrings are also made of the tendons of high-grade exotic beasts.

The carved feather arrows they used had tip heads made from the sharp teeth of exotic beasts of grade five or above, and the arrow shafts were made from eight-foot-long, thumb-thick ironwood.

Not only are the arrow bodies and arrowheads specially carved with various rune symbols, but the feathers are also made from the feathers of the powerful golden eagles and other ferocious birds in the Xianyu Desert, and finally they are blessed with magic by the Xianyu Shaman.

Using this powerful eagle feather arrow, even a huge tree with a diameter of nearly ten feet away can be penetrated by one arrow with great power.

However, despite the powerful eagle feather arrows, the archers only made a crisp impact sound after shooting at the armored vehicles.

The truly precious eagle feather arrow was shattered in an instant, but the armored vehicles were still bombarding and attacking the Xianyu cavalry crazily, causing King Xianyu to suffer a considerable setback.

When he was forced to ask the giant warriors to rescue the cavalry, only less than three thousand of the tens of thousands of elite cavalry escaped, and the rest were all killed on the battlefield.
