Then a bang sounded in my ear.
What was that sound?
"Pfft!"
What is that sound?
"ah!!"
The screams of pain answered the soldiers' questions.
Suddenly, blood gushed from the chest of the shield-bearing soldier in the front row. He stared wide-eyed at the hole in the shield, then looked down at his throbbing chest.
He collapsed into a pool of blood, his face filled with disbelief...
This moment.
The air seemed to freeze.
"Bang!!"
"Bang bang bang!"
Zhou Cheng and his men, who were not far away, did not give them a chance to react. The archers loaded their guns and aimed at the figures behind the shields, firing shot after shot, accompanied by continuous screams.
Zhou Cheng then pulled a submachine gun out of the package.
The bullet was loaded, aimed forward, and swept across the first row of shields.
The bullet pierced the "hard and thick" shield that General Wei had described.
A direct look at the bodies of the imperial soldiers behind the lines!
General Wei, hidden at the very back, had eyes that looked like they were about to burst, and his breath caught in his throat: "!!!"
"How...how could this be...? That's an iron shield, a half-inch thick iron shield, top-level defense that even a spear couldn't break through! How could it be penetrated? I don't believe it, I don't believe it! This can't be real!"
"What kind of terrifying weapon is that...? I don't believe it..."
The general beside him felt his heart clench and his whole body grow cold: "General Wei!! He's dead, dead! What do we do now? It's not a matter of believing or not, what do we do..."
"Think of a solution quickly! Are we really going to lose our 20,000 soldiers to a mere hundred or so?!"
"The weapons they have are terrifying. One per second, no, less than a second. The weapon in Zhou Cheng's hand is simply terrifying. With just a few bangs, it swept across the area."
"How can we fight like this? How are we supposed to fight like this?!"
The army marched for several years.
I have never felt so powerless in my life.
The imperial soldiers were completely panicked, confused, and terrified. They were spinning around in circles, completely disorganized.
General Wei stared intently at the submachine gun in Zhou Cheng's hand, his gaze burning with malice, his eyes filled with a sinister intent, as if he wanted nothing more than to snatch the gun from him immediately: "We can't retreat. If we miss today, there will be no next time."
"Zhou Cheng possesses this deadly weapon; he is a formidable enemy who will bring endless trouble!"
"Listen up, soldiers! Charge forward! Seize the weapon from Zhou Cheng at all costs! I refuse to believe that 20,000 troops can't kill a hundred or so men! Once we have the weapon, Zhou Cheng and his men will have nothing to fear!"
"Whoever seizes the killing weapon will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver and appointed a general. Now, get to me!"
With bloodshot eyes, the imperial soldiers, driven to the brink of desperation, charged forward to attack.
Retreat is out of the question. General Wei is guarding the rear. Anyone who dares to escape will be struck down.
We can only keep moving forward.
What if...?
What if they manage to seize the weapon while Zhou Cheng is unable to kill them?
Clinging to this sliver of hope, nearly 20,000 people recklessly surrounded Zhou Cheng and his group.
At this time,
Zhou Cheng raised an eyebrow.
He watched as the soldiers gathered together, gradually forming a semi-encirclement. Looking at that dense mass on the other side, wouldn't they be wiped out if a grenade were thrown down?
"Open the supply mall!"
"I exchanged for ten basic hand grenades."
"bite!"
"Redeem successful, 10,000 points deducted."
The grenade was in the package.
