Chapter 711: Toll

"Hahaha, very good, very good, push our secret weapon up!"

Xuan Yuan Hua Di laughed heartily when he saw the city wall broken.

Although he also saw the breach, a group of Yanhuang members rushed to block it.

But they didn't care at all!

Clack clack clack—

A mechanical clanking sound came from behind.

One by one, mobile crossbow carts were pushed up.

They were similar to the crossbow carts Huan Yu had before.

Su Sheng frowned when he saw that thing.

Xuan Yuan Hua Di chuckled, "Aim at the breach and fire!"

Having invested so much, he naturally had everything prepared.

It's just a crossbow cart; it's not exclusive to Huan Yu.

The monetary power's gold content is still rising!

But the crossbow cart has a drawback: it can't lob high, only fire straight, unable to reach.

"Scatter!"

Su Sheng spoke directly to the people on Jiu Ge's side.

Swish swish—

Those blocking the breach acted immediately, moving toward the walls on both sides to evade.

Blocking the breach isn't a death sentence; when facing crossbow cart fire, they first dodge.

Swish swish swish—

The massive crossbow cart bolts shot straight, forty to fifty carts covering the entire breach.

Whoosh—

Many bolts passed through the breach and struck buildings inside Yanhuang Town, reducing some durability.

Some also hit the city wall, the massive bolts embedding straight into it.

Although no casualties occurred, Xuan Yuan Hua Di was thrilled.

Because of the crossbow carts, the Yanhuang people also had to avoid their sharp edges.

"Aim, draw the string; before the main force advances, anyone who dares to show up, fire at them!"

Although the Bed Crossbow's bolts are pricey, money solves it, so for Xuan Yuan Hua Di it's basically no issue.

Advance!

Su Sheng's eyebrows lifted slightly at the scene.

It seems this breach cannot be defended.

Man's calculations are inferior to heaven's; plans can't keep up with changes.

I still underestimated the gold content of Shenhua Guild's monetary power.

On this side of the wall, its effect is limited.

However, to break through so easily,

It's not that easy; you have to pay some "toll"!

Although a price must be paid.

But comparatively it can reduce casualties as much as possible.

Although they can still revive directly in the plaza.

However... the current level is hard to raise.

Immediately, Su Sheng made some adjustments to the battle.

"Wow, this is a real battle."

"Yeah, both sides are elite, unlike the chaotic monster siege before."

"Right, advance and retreat are orderly and coordinated."

"Only this time Yanhuang probably can't keep up; our preparation is just too thorough."

"Can't help but be caught off guard; who could've thought so many guilds would suddenly unite to attack Yanhuang?"

"Yeah, the walls are broken, so their function barely showed."

"Mainly because Qiancheng Muxue's combo skill was so surprising, releasing a combo so early."

"Normally combos appear after the Third Rebirth, and we don't know when Qiancheng Muxue got it, so it's unexpected to use it now."

The onlookers chatted endlessly, and like last time many players streamed the scene around.

As for the other side's wall, the back-and-forth probing continues; both sides understand the situation, this side is only support, aiming to tie up a portion of Yanhuang's manpower.

Just like holding back Huan Yu, if Yanhuang fails to defend here they will be breached directly.

Thus a portion of troops must be allocated to defend this side.

…

As time passed, the attacking main force advanced steadily under the protection of the combo skill Turtle Shell.

They soon neared the breach, with total losses under three thousand.

Now that's elite.

When the main force reached the base of the wall, Yanhuang's ranged units on the wall began to retreat.

"Form ranks! Small squads charge! Keep spacing, give the Bed Crossbow room to fire!"

"As long as Yanhuang's people come out to block the gap, fire at me directly!"

On the attacking side, melee players immediately mixed in and began rushing into the gap!

But there is a wide spacing between each formation, so the Bed Crossbow's bolts won't be intercepted by collision volume.

However, when they surged into the gap, they found that behind this city wall breach there was no one at all.

"No one!"

"Haha! Looks like Yanhuang is scared, quickly seize the gap and enter the city!"

"Probably they fear the Bed Crossbow."

"After urban combat, the Bed Crossbow is basically useless."

"No panic, we swiftly take the gap, then we command from the city wall!"

There's no choice; the Bagua formation of Yanhuang Town must be overseen from a height to command best.

Although we scouted the layout beforehand, once the battle enters Yanhuang Town the mini‑map is restricted, and without its guidance the Bagua layout is quite confusing.

But from a height there's no problem; we can directly overlook the whole situation.

Soon the attackers swiftly seized the gap.

Then the main force began to enter the city!

A contingent of elite quickly climbed the city wall and saw Yanhuang members retreating.

But at that moment...

Swish swish swish~

Huge slabs of stone suddenly cascaded over, covering the gap.

Ah~

Damn~

Swish swish~

A flash of white light lit up the area instantly.

The gap is that wide; to rush through you'd have to squeeze.

But the Catapult immediately covered the entire gap.

"What the heck, Yanhuang didn't even take the Catapult away!"

"Find the Catapult's location and destroy it directly!"

"Everyone else, hold back!"

But when they arrived at the Catapult's spot, it was the Yanhuang main force that collided.

Both sides instantly erupted into combat!

Yet the small detachment is no match at all!

Seeing this, Xuan Yuan Hua Di's teeth itch!

"Never mind, get me through quickly!"

"Priests on both sides stand by to heal at any moment!"

"Also, sort out how many bombs remain, reserve some to assault the town center, and use the rest to blow up the City Gate; otherwise passage here is too slow!"

There's no choice; only a small number of players can enter the city now, and breaking through the blockade to destroy the Catapult is unlikely.

We can only endure the "fee" and pass through the gap!

Unexpectedly, Yanhuang's people were so cunning they didn't fight at the gap, turning our meticulously prepared crossbow cart into a mere decoration...

The crossbow cart was originally meant to guarantee our entry into the city, but now it's completely futile! That truly frustrates him.

Swish swish~

The Catapult keeps "charging"!

Even though Priest players keep watching, each wave that passes loses a few lives.

Boom boom~

Over there they've already started blowing up the City Gate!

"Send a detachment to go in through the City Gate!"

The City Gate will be a bit wider, but still can't let that many people pass simultaneously.

"We have enough manpower! Charge forward! Destroy those Catapults!"

Seeing that a third of the main force has already passed, Xuan Yuan Hua Di immediately began issuing orders… can't tolerate that over a thousand casualties have been lost at the gap.

It's more frustrating than the whole breakthrough itself!
