The giant still wanted to struggle, but the soldiers who had been hiding behind the building and waiting beside it could not suppress the excitement in their hearts. Several figures passed by, and the giant finally broke free with unwillingness. Out of breath, the body gradually turned into steam.

There were deafening cheers all around.

Wilson's expression softened a little. If the giants could attack like this one by one, then today's battle would be much easier to fight.

This seemed to be the beginning. The giants behind seemed to turn a blind eye to the death of their companions. They continued to move forward slowly, and then were blocked by the steel rope and killed on the spot by the soldiers hiding aside.

But the good times did not last long. As the number of giants increased, the steel ropes gradually became scarce. Originally, it would take seven or eight such steel ropes to trip a giant. But in fact, as time went by, the effect became less and less. Obviously, many of the giants were charging at the same time. It took a dozen or even dozens of steel ropes to trip them down, and the soldiers had fewer and fewer opportunities to strike. Because once he appears, the giant will immediately change direction and attack the warriors hiding nearby. Several warriors have been killed in the giant's attack.

Wilson's face couldn't help but darken.

Thousands of steel cables were used to stop and kill only a few dozen giants, but more importantly, the giants in front did not seem to have received much obstruction. In other words, the giants on this Stamboul Street were not blocked. The density is simply not high enough...

The giant has already broken through the tightrope area.

What is staggering is that the giant seems to have been accustomed to this kind of road, or in other words, the giant in front has taken away a large number of iron nails and glazed tiles. They moved faster and faster. Although there was still a big gap compared to their usual moving speed, the speed was still picking up a little bit after all.

Wilson's expression was still gloomy, but he was not depressed at all.

He grabbed the starting gun of the staff next to him, filled it with a green flare, and fired it directly into the air without looking at it.

The city defense troops on the ground moved into action.

They worked in groups of three and set up the artillery in an orderly manner. They could not see the giant from their current position, but this did not hinder their firing.

The cannon that had been prepared suddenly roared. At this time, Wilson's brilliance was seen. He divided the artillery into three rows, and each artillery had one person responsible for loading ammunition, one person wiping and replacing the barrel, and one person aiming, which effectively avoided the need for personnel to Repeated work speeds up the rate of fire.

Moreover, when the first row of artillery fired, it was not the second row that moved forward, but the three-person team in the first row who pulled the artillery and ran back. The loading personnel transferred the ammunition of the artillery during the transfer of the artillery. Fill it in. Then the second row of artillery fired, and then ran back...

Although the city defense army was a mob, they had no problem doing these mechanical tasks, and the giant did not appear in sight. At first, when Wilson informed the city defense forces of his requirements and methods, they seemed reluctant. However, after Wilson fired a cannonball straight and issued a silver coin as a reward, The entire city defense army was boiling. They temporarily forgot about the giants and only looked at the silver coins in front of them. Therefore, their current loading and firing speed could even be described as terrifying.

With the three stages of firing and the terrifying reloading speed, Wilson even felt that the artillery of the city defense army had been roaring.

The artillery is loaded with solid bullets.

The cannonball is extremely fast, but it gradually slows down after a few hundred meters. It rolls on the ground at a terrifying speed. Looking down from the sky, you can see another round ball rolling quickly towards the giant. It's like playing bowling, and the giants are like moving bottles.

When the giants besieged the city of Maria, the artillery was actually of little use, because the giants' terrible recovery and regeneration abilities made it impossible for the artillery to pose a serious threat to them. But artillery is artillery after all, and it has extremely strong lethality. Even a giant can be beaten into sieves by a large number of shells.

Quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes, this is never an empty saying.

A large number of cannonballs were fired at the giant. They were still flying in the air at first, but then they started to roll on the road paved with bluestone.

The giants in front were all knocked down almost in one encounter. They did not suffer multiple injuries at this time, only their feet were shattered. It is conceivable that such injuries can actually be cured as long as they recover for a while.

But who will give you time to recover?

The next wave of shells followed.

The giants were torn apart by cannonballs with huge wounds, and hot blood spurted out, dyeing the entire Stamboul Street a touch of red, but they roared and roared because they had smelled the aroma of human flesh and blood, right in front, Not far away... some giants even moved forward by crawling, dragging out a pool of blood behind them.

But the next moment, the giants behind them jumped over their companions and continued to move forward. Their speed did not slow down at all. Although a few unlucky ones were tripped by the giants in front, most of the giants still crossed over and were blocked by the giants in front of them. Knocked out guys.

Then, another wave of shells came.

The battle situation turned into a tug-of-war. The giants seemed to be blocked together, and the most violent human artillery fire could only temporarily immobilize the giants. In fact, except for some unlucky ones who were directly hit in the neck by artillery and died, or They were trampled to death by their companions. Although most of the fallen giants were injured, as soon as the artillery fire stopped, they could participate in the feast again.

Wilson's palms were full of sweat. He had thought about what would happen when the bombardment occurred, but he never expected that with the two advantages of geographical location and people, the most powerful long-range weapon of mankind could only hold the giants to a stalemate. on Stamboul Street.

He knew that the current stalemate was temporary. If he hadn't taken the three-stage shooting as a sudden idea, if he hadn't listened to Xingye's shrinking defense tactics and gathered all the city guards together, such results might not have been achieved.

But with such results, if there is a problem with the speed of the artillery, then this balance will be broken immediately.

And just like what the book says, good things don’t work but bad things work.

The roar of artillery fire suddenly became sparse.

Wilson looked in the direction of the city guards and suddenly turned pale.

Half of the one hundred and thirty-one artillery pieces here were dug out of the warehouse, and they were all old items. Therefore, many barrels had burst due to the continuous bombardment, and many city guard soldiers were even injured as a result. , and the spare barrels are simply not enough... As time goes by, there are fewer and fewer artillery guns that can fire, not even one-third of the number at the beginning.

The giants seemed to feel that the pressure was lessening, and they speeded up one after another. What was mind-numbing was that too many giants on the ground began to slowly stand up, their wounds slowly disappearing as time went by.

Finally, after the last artillery roar, all the artillery went silent.

"Report commander, we...all the artillery shells in our inventory have been consumed!"

The staff looked at the flags issued by the city guards below, and shouted to Wilson with a pale face, his voice obviously crying.

Wilson nodded slowly, and looked back at the winding road behind him. At this time, most of the crowd has passed through, but the remaining people still need time to pass through the city gate.

"No, there's not enough time, so we can't give up yet... otherwise all our efforts will be in vain."

At this moment, Wilson struggled to pick up the starting gun and pulled the trigger into the air.

A bright red signal flare slowly rose into the air.

The soldiers of the regiment at the scene were silent. They understood the meaning of this signal - the people. The evacuation is not over yet.

The next moment, they all drew out their double swords.

So, at this time, all they can do is fight to the death! To the end!_To read the underlined version of the novel, please download the Feilu Novel APP!??
