Chapter 2079 The Unbreakable Line of Defense
Although the distance is still far away, seeing the densely packed dorsal fins of the sails, you can be sure that the scale of the sea monster army is quite huge.
In terms of numbers, they completely crushed the believers, more than a hundred times.
They were like a pack of hungry wolves, attacking fiercely, and nothing seemed to be able to stop them.
Don’t think that these sea monsters have no brains. In fact, they are very cunning, and there is also a leader-like existence in the legion, secretly controlling the entire battle.
Even when launching an attack, he will specifically pick out the weak and attack instead of going head-on with the strong.
Although those defense zones ranked high will also be attacked by sea monsters, they are basically small-scale battles.
When attacking such a defense zone, the chance of successfully breaking through is very low, so the sea monster will not use all its strength, but will only use cannon fodder to consume the believers.
The number of sea monsters is unknown. No matter how much the loss is, they can still bear it.
High-risk defense areas are the key targets of sea monsters. They use tactics similar to suppression and consumption to prevent these high-risk defense areas from growing.
He was well aware of sea monsters, so even if they suddenly attacked, Sun Jun would not be surprised.
“Everyone is ready to fight, obey my orders, and be ready to fire at any time!”
When the sound of war drums came from the temple, Sun Jun had already climbed to the top of the mountain. On the tower, he observed the sea in front of him from a high position.
Although his face is as calm as water, if you look closely at his eyes, you will find a hint of excitement.
Sun Jun's desire to fight far exceeds that of anyone else. At this moment, he feels that his blood is already burning.
"Sure enough, it's here. It's really exciting!"
He had already thought about it before. The 153 defense zone had just been destroyed, and the sea monster would definitely not miss the opportunity.
They will definitely gather their forces and take the opportunity to launch another wave of attacks to destroy the repaired defense zone again.
And the scale of this attack will definitely be far greater than the last one. Only in this way can we destroy the temple with an overwhelming force after breaking through the city wall.
As long as the temple can be destroyed, the sea monster army can march straight in and direct its troops towards the great temple.
Sun Jun didn't care whether the Great Temple was safe or not, and he knew very well that those sea monsters would never succeed easily.
What he is most concerned about now is how to fight this battle well and earn more military exploits.
When the war drums of the temple sounded, the huge teleportation stone suddenly started to activate, and the teleportation stones in other defense areas also reacted accordingly.
On the side of the teleportation stone marked with the 153 War Zone, a red light flashed immediately, reminding that a battle was about to take place there.
After seeing this scene, a large number of believers immediately focused their attention on the Shadow Stone in those defense zones that had not been attacked by sea monsters.
They gathered in the open space or stood at the top of the city, staring intently at the huge picture projected into the sky.
The previous scene of guns and cannons firing in defense zones 1,53 and 3 has caused enough sensation and made countless believers curious.
At this moment, everyone wants to see how lethal these weapons that emit flames are.
Under the gaze of countless pairs of eyes, the artillery located on the peaks on both sides suddenly opened fire, and streams of flames spurted out from the muzzles.
Although the sound cannot be heard, just seeing the scene of these artillery firing, you can imagine how spectacular the scene is.
Of course, what everyone is most concerned about is not the scene of the artillery firing, but wanting to see how much damage these cannonballs can cause to the sea monster after they are fired?
As the commander adjusted the screen of the teleportation stone, those giant sea beasts with sail-like dorsal fins appeared clearly in front of everyone.
You can see countless sea monsters crouching on the backs of sea monsters. They look like parasites and make people's scalp numb just by looking at them.
However, at the next moment, shells fell on the backs of these sea monsters, and then there was a scene of flesh and blood flying in the sky. In the violent explosion, the sea monsters on the back of the giant beast were torn apart in groups, leaving behind shocking huge blood holes.
The giant sea beast that was attacked trembled violently, although compared to its huge size, this attack did not seem to be fatal.
The problem is that the artillery attacks are quite intensive. The size of the sea beasts means that they cannot move quickly to avoid them and can only withstand the artillery attacks.
But in the blink of an eye, the backs of these giant sea monsters were blown to pieces. Unable to bear the pain, the monsters began to subconsciously dive into the sea.
Just like this, the sea beasts can no longer get closer, because the water depth in the offshore sea is simply not enough to cover their huge size.
If you want to continue to get closer, you must come to the surface of the sea, and it is not the best attack distance of the giant sea beast right now.
Although the sea monster entered the water to escape, it never stopped under the shelling from both sides of the mountain.
Under normal circumstances, neither bullets nor artillery shells can continue to effectively attack underwater targets after entering the water.
The same is true for the cannonballs that appeared from Tang Zhen. After entering the water, their power is greatly reduced, and they can no longer effectively kill the sea monsters.
If he is willing, he can manifest special underwater bombs and continuously attack the giant sea beasts that dive into the sea.
However, in Tang Zhen's opinion, there is no need at all. Doing so will only greatly increase the cost.
The cannonballs he made contained highly toxic substances, extremely deadly ones.
Once the cannonball enters the body, it is enough to poison these giant sea beasts and kill them in a short time.
In addition to this highly toxic artillery shell, there are also incendiary bombs that can seal the sea surface with flames after exploding, as well as submunition bombs with extremely lethal effects.
The artillerymen on the peaks on both sides will replace different shells in a timely manner according to Sun Jun's instructions, instead of firing randomly.
Under the intensive bombardment, the giant sea monsters sank into the sea continuously. The sea monsters clinging to the back were either killed by the explosion, or sank to the bottom of the sea with the giant sea monsters.
Due to the suppression of artillery, the giant sea monster is no longer able to rise out of the sea and spray acid, which is equivalent to abolishing the sea monster's long-range attack method.
The giant sea monsters can no longer move forward, but the sea monsters on their backs can continue to move forward, which makes the ocean full of swimming figures, heading straight for the coast.
During the swimming process, cannonballs fell into the water from time to time, tearing the sea monsters closer to the sea into pieces.
Countless corpses floated on the sea, with black smoke rising under the burning flames.
Not long after, countless figures appeared in the waves on the beach. The sea monsters had already rushed to the shore and began to swarm towards the city wall.
The anti-aircraft machine gun that had been waiting for a long time opened fire immediately. After pressing the muzzle of the gun down through the rocker, tongues of flames shot back and forth on the coast.
As soon as those sea monsters washed ashore, they were knocked to the ground by strings of bullets, and pieces of blood mist rose up along the coast.
Soon a wall of corpses appeared on the beach. As sea monsters continued to come ashore, the wall began to grow higher and higher.
This machine gun defense line alone has completely intercepted the sea monster, unable to advance even an inch.
Even though sporadic sea monsters rushed forward, they were still shot and killed by machine gunners and snipers during the charge.
At this time, the 153 defense zone was like a cold meat grinder of war, continuously harvesting the lives of sea monsters.
The believers on the city wall were all in a state of excitement, and their eyes were slightly red.
The pleasure of killing and the joy of wildly gaining military achievements made their whole bodies tremble with excitement.
As for the spectators in other defense zones, they were stunned with horror. They had never imagined that killing sea monsters could be so simple and efficient!
