Boiling Beast Bloodline-Chapter 2189 - 673: Two Against One [Final - of Part II]_4

Not to mention anything else, just the heavy crossbow mechanisms installed at the tops of both sides of the valley by the Flying Camel Army come in no fewer than fifteen models!

Undoubtedly, the Flying Camel Army has brought tremendous damage to the main Sea Clan’s assault force, their defensive equipment is abundant, their organization can be described as rigorous and orderly, and their attack firepower is ample and continuous, but in the eyes of the Sea Clan’s senior officers, these advantages are absolute signs of impending collapse!

Since the beginning of the land-sea war, the experienced Sea Clan officers only need to look at the trajectory of the arrows and listen to the firing vibrations of the crossbows to report which Aegean country’s crossbow it is. The Flying Camel Army’s universal brand equipment cannot escape their keen eyes!

The fact that Rommel used carbon-based formulas to exchange for a large amount of military aid from various human countries was unknown to the Sea Clan, so General Sharlonbas and his staff naturally assumed that these universal brand defensive devices were scattered equipment brought to the Flying Camel Army by human stragglers.

From a combat perspective, an army using universal brand weapons is bound to impose a devastating burden on its logistics system. Such an army is the most amateur armed force, at most on par with bandits reigning over mountain strongholds, and does not deserve to possess the sustained combat capability of a regular army!

A simple analogy can reveal the correctness of this argument—crossbows from various countries use matching arrows, with different standards for arrow length and diameter. For example, the "Pendulum Crossbow" from the Bimon Kingdom uses matching arrows that are two meters long with a diameter of 25 centimeters, and the arrowhead is spade-shaped. Besides the Pendulum Crossbow, how could such an arrow be mounted for use in the "Scarab Crossbow" of the St. Jose Empire or the "Coastal Whaling Crossbow" of the Pompeii Empire?

Does the Flying Camel Army, with so many heavy crossbows from different models and origins, have the manpower and resources in their logistics department to produce a variety of matching arrows?

The answer is, of course, impossible!

Arrows are a military consumable with a relatively slow consumption speed. Rolling stones, battering logs, and boiling oil, these one-time consumables, are often consumed faster than arrows, so the more wild the Flying Camel Army gets right now, the tighter their military reserves will become, until finally, let’s see what they can use to withstand the charge of the Sea Clan warriors!

What’s losing a few men to the Sea Clan! Cannon fodder troops are used to pave the way!

"Four hours, I estimate that their arrows can maintain continuous consumption for at most two more hours." 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

"This valley is enclosed, and their military stockpile and manufacturing capabilities must be limited!"

"I am convinced that humans and Bimon have surely provided some military aid to this guerrilla unit behind enemy lines!"

"But in the current continental situation, humans and Bimon cannot embody selflessness to the extent of emptying their pockets, so the Flying Camel Army’s war potential will soon reach its limit!"

General Sharlonbas gazed afar towards the peak of the valley, and his resolute face finally revealed a hint of a confident smile.

In truth, the general had a feeling of mutual sympathy for the commander of the Flying Camel Army, feeling a bit of pity and frustration to defeat this opponent purely by strength rather than tactics. Considering the series of previous confrontations, the commander of the Flying Camel Army possesses exceptional tactical ingenuity. The general could hardly understand why such an outstanding military commander would be relegated to the rear to conduct guerrilla warfare. With his ability, he should be leading a large army to face off against the Sea Clan.

"It’s your misfortune, but it’s our Sea Clan’s fortune." General Sharlonbas seemed to be talking to himself, "With a tenacious opponent like Richard, having just one is enough."

"The general is wise!" The insightful staff members, of course, knew this was the moment to praise.

The battle continued to develop for another two hours, and the battering logs and heavy crossbows of the Flying Camel Army began to massively misfire. Yet, whenever the Sea Clan army seized the opportunity to launch strong assaults, the Flying Camel Army would erupt with a dense wave of attacks like a torrential rain.

"Convey my order, launch another fierce assault, double the intake of suicide pills, dispatch the supervising team, kill anyone who takes a step back!" General Sharlonbas sneered, "It’s a bit late for the Flying Camel Army to start thinking about conserving their resources now!"

As expected, with the desperate charge of 20,000 suicide squad members, the heavy crossbows deployed by the Flying Camel Army on the mountaintop only managed a brief period of euphoria before becoming sparse and feeble. However, the Sea Clan army’s strong attack still couldn’t break through Skyline Valley, as the warriors of the Flying Camel Army tossed out fiercely burning walnut fireballs. These fireballs would burst upon landing, with strong adhesion, and many Sea Clan soldiers contaminated by the sparks screamed as they frantically clawed at the burned wounds, collapsing heavily to the ground.

The large quantities of boiling oil originally spread within the valley also became extensively ignited, resulting in a following team of ten thousand being senselessly buried in the Sea of Fire.

"Ah, the final trump card is finally revealed!" General Sharlonbas’ eyebrow twitched in apparent surprise at the sharpness of these walnut fireballs. "Order the turtle heavy infantry group to immediately ready their shields. As soon as the fire subsides, cover your heads and charge through with all your might! Remember, we need to capture prisoners in this battle—I need to ask them what was that fireball just now!"

"General, the other side has exhausted their strategies. The main assault group just sent a message..." A sea serpent lieutenant lifted the bone-connected treasure box in hand, indicating that ever since the Demon Clan provided this device to the Sea Clan army, battlefield communications reached unimaginable heights: "...The Flying Camel Army has constructed a stone wall at the end of the valley, and just now some of our main assault group warriors already approached the stone wall. This stone wall is only two meters high! It seems that the next charge will determine the victory!"
