The destructive power of the catapults far exceeded that of the ballistae, but in terms of lethality, they were inferior.
After all, although the boulder seemed to have a shocking momentum, it was a huge target. As long as one paid attention to dodging, they could completely dodge it.
However, the ballista was different. The ballista was too fast. In a flash, it had already crossed hundreds of meters. It was not something that humans could dodge.
Even Xiantian experts would find it difficult.
This was how powerful machines were.
However, the weakness of the ballista was that once the enemies were scattered, the lethality of the ballista would be greatly reduced, and it would not be able to kill four or five people with one arrow.
None of the ten ballistae failed. Within the alliance army camp, close to fifty people were nailed to the ground by the ballistae.
The bloody scene almost instantly crushed the morale of the allied soldiers.
Especially the Yan soldiers who had always been useless, they were all stunned. Looking at the soldiers nailed to the ground by the ballistae, they all trembled.
Lord Xinling led Pang He, Gongsun Ying, and Jiangqu out, looking at the marks left by the rolling boulders and the ballistae that had pierced through the bodies of the five soldiers.
The four of them were also shocked.
"Lord, get out of the way!"
Zhu Hai, who had been following Lord Xinling to protect him, grabbed him and dragged him to the side. Pang He and Gong Sunying also quickly avoided him. Only Jiang Qu, who was a general of the Yan Kingdom, had only acquired martial arts.
He couldn't dodge in time and was pierced through by an arrow, nailing him to the ground.
Zhu Hai was shocked. He was born with divine strength and was a grandmaster level expert. He had a terrifying feeling that he was about to die just now.
"This place is close to three hundred steps away from the camp, and these crossbow bolts are actually so powerful. What kind of weapon is this?”Pang Xiong said in disbelief.
"We need to retreat quickly, Lord. I'm afraid things have changed."”
Lord Xinling's expression was grave.
He raised Zhao Mu's danger level by several levels again.
Just as he gave the order to retreat, he saw that the gate of the Qin camp had already opened.
Zhao Mu took the lead, waving the Azure Dragon Halberd with his right hand. Behind him, three thousand cavalrymen charged towards the alliance army camp.
Lord Xinling's face turned red.
Zhao Mu had actually dared to lead 3,000 men to attack his 200,000-strong army. Even though Lord Xinling had always warned him not to send troops out of anger, he still could not suppress his anger.
He was not the only one. Pang He and Gong Sunying were both famous generals of the current era. They had led their armies to battle, but they were led by a seventeen-year-old kid. How would the world laugh at them?
"Zhu Hai, stop him!"
Lord Xinling ordered.
At this moment, Zhao Mu had already rushed to the front of the alliance army camp.
The camp of the alliance army was built with earth. Although the gate was made of wood, there were chariots behind it.
It could block the force of a thousand pounds.
Everyone watched as Zhao Mu brandished his Azure Dragon Halberd and slashed down from the sky.
His fierce gaze was like an evil dragon, making people shudder. The fierce killing intent emitted from his body made people tremble.
The Azure Dragon Halberd struck the camp gate.
Boom!
The gate of the camp that Lord Xinling and the others thought was impossible to be broken by Zhao Mu instantly shattered and scattered on the ground.
The war chariot behind the camp gate was also shattered at this moment.
There was no longer any obstruction in front of Zhao Mu and the others.
Zhao Mu's speed was too fast. At this moment, the soldiers of the alliance army could no longer shoot arrows. They were still in a panic from the catapults and ballistae.
The thousand-li horse under Zhao Mu dashed into the army like lightning.
The Azure Dragon Halberd continued to swing and slash down, causing blood to fly everywhere. The soldiers screamed in pain. No one could withstand Zhao Mu's attack.
"Zhao Mu, don't be so arrogant!"
Zhu Hai brandished his forty jin hammer and charged forward. He was born with great strength and was also a grandmaster. With a single strike, a Qin cavalryman and his horse were smashed to the ground by him.
Such combat strength was enough to shock everyone.
After killing a cavalryman, Zhu Hai had already arrived in front of Zhao Mu.
Zhao Mu snorted coldly, and the Azure Dragon Halberd smashed down. This light strike landed on Zhu Hai's iron hammer, but it caused Zhu Hai's expression to change drastically. His face instantly turned purple-red.
His legs suddenly squatted down, and then he sank into the ground.
"Why is it so heavy?"
Zhu Hai only had the time to say this before the Genuine Qi in his body was completely destroyed. The weight of nine thousand pounds combined with Zhao Mu's power was more than ten thousand pounds. How could Zhu Hai withstand it?
The Azure Dragon Halberd slashed through Zhu Hai's body. A grandmaster had died so easily under Zhao Mu's hands.
Lord Xinling's eyes widened in disbelief.
He was well aware of Zhu Hai's martial prowess. For so many years, Lord Xinling had never worried about his safety as long as Zhu Hai was by his side.
But today, Zhu Hai, who had followed him to steal the talisman to save Zhao Mu, was killed by Zhao Mu in one strike.
How many people would dare to believe it?
"Retreat!"
"Lord!"
Pang He and Gong Sun Ying were also shocked by Zhao Mu's bravery.
Especially Pang Xiong, he was also a Grandmaster expert, and his body was filled with extremely dense Genuine Qi.
He had seen everything that happened just now.
He could confirm that Zhao Mu had not activated his Genuine Qi at all. Instead, Zhu Hai had activated all of his Genuine Qi.
Even so, Zhao Mu had killed Zhu Hai easily.
Just how powerful was Zhao Mu's physique?
Pang He and Gongsun Ying protected Lord Xinling as he retreated, while his personal guards stood beside them.
Zhao Mu didn't chase after him. Even though he was powerful, he wasn't strong enough to chase after one person in an army of 200,000.
Furthermore, Lord Xinling alone could not change the overall situation. On the contrary, these unremarkable soldiers represented the true strength of a country.
Back then, Baiqi had killed 300,000 Zhao soldiers, and the damage he had done to Zhao was definitely greater than killing ten or twenty famous generals.
Zhao Mu led 3,000 cavalrymen to charge back and forth, and a large number of soldiers died under his Azure Dragon Halberd.
The Yan army was the first to collapse, and even the Zhao and Han armies were in disarray. They were chased by Zhao Mu for more than a hundred miles, and countless corpses were found along the way.
