Chapter 1957 Head-on contact
The various planes of the multiverse world, apart from the same basic laws, may have very different styles of painting.

Especially for two planes that have no connection at all, the results of their respective developments will seem weird to each other.

Oak City, which was attacked, immediately began to counterattack. Although there were cannons on the wall, they were fired into the sky and at a long distance, so they could not threaten the large flat plate in the sky. Subia’s army chose to use crossbows to fight back.

Oldey clearly saw that the large flat plate in the sky was shot through the armor by the crossbow. Although it could not be considered to have caused any damage, it was at least not completely invulnerable.

If this was all they were capable of, Alde would have been ready to signal Rhaena to send the white dragon up to cause some havoc.

But it is obvious that the other party has more than just this ability.

“Report! Unknown armed personnel are approaching us from the east, about 30,000 in number!”

“Continue to monitor closely and report any movements at any time.”

“Yes!”

On the east side of Oak City is a large and dense oak forest. It’s not very similar to a primeval forest, but at least 30,000 troops could be crammed in there without causing any trouble.

But Zora had already sent out the scouts, so he shouldn’t have discovered them only when the enemy was approaching.

“It was airlifted down.”

Oldey explained:

“The enemy’s air force is obviously much more advanced than ours.”

Zora nodded. Now was not the time to worry about why he was able to break through the reconnaissance network.

The army of Avarus had assembled, and Zora ordered it to march east of Oak City to intercept the enemy troops passing through the woods.

Again, Subia’s army has been frightened out of their wits. They are good at defending the city, but they are afraid to fight in the field.

If the enemy is allowed to approach, they will attack Oak City from both sides, and Subia’s army will be more likely to abandon the city and flee.

Losing Oak City will cause the entire front line to shift back. As mentioned earlier, a war of attrition cannot be fought in the Demon Realm.

Years of war have already caused a large amount of funds and materials to evaporate. Now, when they are planning to recuperate, they are faced with an invasion from another dimension. They must be driven out as quickly as possible in a short period of time. Otherwise, once a stalemate is entered, it will be difficult to hope of winning.

So Oak City cannot be lost.

This usually inconspicuous small city has now become an important node. It is estimated that when this city was first established, it never thought that it would one day become so important.

Subia’s army had already been frightened, but Avarus’s army was in high spirits.

The assembled soldiers sang hymns dedicated to the Demon God, quickly moved to the east side of Oak City and formed a battle formation.

Almost as soon as the deployment was completed, Zora saw through the telescope that a group of troops in unfamiliar attire were pouring out of the woods.

When the other side found that Avarus’s army was ready for battle, they didn’t seem surprised. It must be that some reconnaissance means discovered them in advance.

Moreover, the distance between the two sides was actually quite far, so there was enough time for these people to complete the formation.

However, they obviously did not understand the difference between Avarus’s army and Subia’s army.

“fire!”

Twelve 12mm towed artillery pieces had been deployed in the rear, loaded with high-explosive shells, and fired three bursts at the edge of the forest.

In addition to the high morale of Avarus’ army, they also had weapons given by the Demon God.

Although Li Chengxi only brought twelve cannons, the accuracy, range, and lethality of these cannons far exceeded all the cannons in the Demon Realm. The assembled army that had just emerged from the forest was hit head-on. Although 12 cannons seemed few, they were actually two artillery companies.

One 122mm high-explosive bomb was enough to cover the area of ​​a basketball court. Each gun fired three rounds in a row, and for a moment the entire edge of the forest looked shrouded in smoke.

Zora used a telescope to observe the effects of the bombardment, while Olde and Ivan used their secret eyes to observe from the sky, giving them a clearer view.

“The other side has also started to open up artillery fire.”

But as I said just now, the opponent’s artillery technology is not very good.

The range was not far enough, and it hit the Avarus army about one or two kilometers in front of it, so it couldn’t reach them at all, let alone use artillery to counter artillery.

Instead, the light of their firing in the woods was discovered by the artillery of Avarus. Zola ordered the firing angle to be readjusted, and the 12 guns fired another round of three shots in succession.

A large cloud of smoke rose in the forest. Trees were knocked down in large numbers by the shock wave. The enemy’s ammunition might have exploded, and along with the flames, the forest might have been set on fire.

In such an unfavorable situation, it would be wise for the opponent to retreat back into the woods to regroup and wait for a better opportunity to rush out again. In that case, Zora would not chase them, as the situation in the forest is too complicated and it would be easy to fall into a trap.

But even though they were hit, these people did not retreat. When the artillery was countering the artillery in the forest, they used this short time to line up and began to charge towards Avarus’s army.

With a shrill roar, a large group of things that looked like six-legged spiders crawled out of the forest, carrying at least seven or eight people and leading the charge.

This could be the enemy’s armored unit, equivalent to cavalry.

It seems that the other party wants to confront us head-on.

Zora gave the order to advance into the barrage, and then drew the sword from his waist:
“Loyal and brave soldiers of Avarus! We have successfully repelled the invaders before, and we can repel them again! Follow me!”

Since the other party wants to fight head-on, let’s destroy them here.

“The Lord is watching us! Don’t let His glory be tarnished!”

Trumpets were blown, drums were beaten, and the army began to move.

One after another, shaped charge bombs flew overhead, landed on the enemy’s advance route, and gradually bombarded the rear of the enemy army.

Destroy the enemy’s formation and will, and then your own people will go up to reap the rewards. This is the typical use of cannons.

Watching Zora rushing forward, Alday was speechless.

After all, you have been a guard knight. How can a commander lead a charge?

Did he learn bad things from Viola?

No wonder it is said that Orde is a branch of the Avarus royal family. He did not inherit the Avarus royal family’s habit of going to the trouble.

However, Zora was not a brainless reckless man. She chose to lead the team to charge at this time. On the one hand, she knew that since the enemy was charging forward even with cannons, they would not retreat easily. If they continued to stay where they were and waited for the enemy’s cavalry to rush up, they would be waiting to be beaten.

Zora, on the other hand, knew that there were not many shells.

In the past, when using the cannon given by Li Chengxi, they would just fire a few shots randomly, mainly to scare the enemy.

Subia’s army was so frightened that they would retreat without offering any resistance, allowing Avarus to capture it easily.

But now the cannons may not be able to scare the enemy. If they fire without restraint, the stock of artillery shells will be quickly consumed.

This is just the beginning of the fight against the extra-dimensional threat and it cannot be wasted.
