Next cos the Fish Oil Bomb, with great burning power and even explosive capability.
And the worst is the Li Bomb, as it can’t deal direct damage.
However, unexpectedly, on the battlefield, it was the Li Bomb that turned out to play a decisive role.
The Fla Demon Tribe had conducted many secret experints on the Li Bomb. The solution is simple: when you see the Li Bomb land, just charge forward with your eyes closed, and nothing will happen.
Yet on the battlefield, the enemy knew nothing about the Li Bomb and didn’t know to charge forward with their eyes closed.
Moreover, the collective effect significantly magnifies the power of the Li Bomb.
If only two or three people get li in their eyes, it’s not a big deal, order won’t be disrupted as long as one person can see and guide them out to restore order.
However, in a forty-thousand-strong army, as long as one-third of the soldiers get li in their eyes, the entire army’s order will collapse completely, trample each other, and fall into chaos.
Thus, under the wrong command of the Silver Alliance Leader.
This forty-thousand-strong vanguard army fell into a passive beating situation.
"Boom boom boom!"
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."
The soldiers of the Silver Alliance vanguard army had already fallen into chaos, so running towards the city walls, so towards the rear, and so to the sides.
The Fla Demon Tribe seized this golden opportunity, launching Fish Oil Bomb attacks round after round with trebuchets.
Over a hundred giant crossbows fired wildly.
And so soldiers who couldn’t see ran directly towards the Fla Demon Tribe’s city walls, only to et the real rain of arrows.
The twenty thousand soldiers on the city walls fired a barrage of arrows!
And so, shortly after the battle began, the forty thousand vanguard troops led by Constantine and Alfonso were in a passive beating situation.
This was a once-in-a-lifeti golden mont, one must try to cause more casualties!
Every second, countless soldiers were dying.
The battlefield was ablaze, screams filled the air.
Watching their tribe’s soldiers fall one after another, the chieftains observing the battle were utterly anxious.
"Alliance Hierarch, sound the retreat, or it will be too late!"
Nurous chieftains fervently requested the retreat to be sounded!
The Silver Alliance Leader was really unwilling to retreat, it was too humiliating, retreating so soon after launching an attack, and without even touching the enemy’s city walls.
However, now it was entirely impossible not to retreat, the tens of thousands of vanguard troops had completely lost command, like a chaotic ss, continuing would only increase casualties.
"Sound the retreat!"
Imdiately, the special bell sounded!
This was the signal to retreat!
Sure enough, many blind soldiers, in a chaotic frenzy, imdiately discerned the direction and rushed to retreat towards the bell’s sound.
A quarter of an hour later, all the vanguard siege troops retreated back to the main army formation, leaving a field of corpses!
After counting the number of people, the chieftains present were heartbroken.
The entire forty-thousand-strong army, only twenty-seven thousand returned!
A full thirteen thousand perished on the battlefield. Of course, they weren’t necessarily dead, most were just injured.
However, no one brought them back, awaiting them was only death!
In this massive casualty, the Silver Alliance Leader was undoubtedly primarily responsible because when the vanguard troops fell into chaos, he did not sound the retreat tily, believing that with Constantine and Alfonso’s capability, order could be restored once again.
However, those soldiers didn’t disobey command, but they couldn’t see, and no matter how capable the battlefield commander was, it was useless.
Facing such massive casualties, the Silver Alliance Leader had no choice but to temporarily halt the attack and convene an ergency eting!
The battle had only just begun for less than three hours, it was not even nine in the morning, yet the battle was suspended!
This was a huge blow to morale!
What was thought to be a bloody straightforward battle turned out to be embarrassingly chaotic!
...
"There’s a large-scale soldier reaction, with the white powder in their eyes, oil can wash it away. Though it would hurt the eyes, it won’t render them truly blind!"
"Actually, the giant arrow attacks of the Fla Demon Tribe and even the Fish Oil Bomb attacks didn’t cause much damage; the key was the white powder causing the massive disorder. As long as one-third or even one-fourth of the soldiers couldn’t see, the army was dood."
"To counter the white powder attack by the Near-Human Tribe mongrels is actually simple; upon seeing the large pouch being thrown, close the eyes and charge through."
"Their secret weapon can only be fired twice in a quarter hour, by then, our army would have already reached the city walls!"
At the eting, each chieftain beca a Zhuge Liang after the fact, offering strategies and criticizing the previous battlefield command errors.
Indeed, the solution to the Li Bomb attack was obvious to everyone upon cooling down afterward.
But on the battlefield, everything happens in the blink of an eye, without ti or chance to react!
"In the afternoon, resu attacking the Fla Demon Tribe!" the Silver Alliance Leader said, "Moreover, we must first destroy the Fla Demon Tribe’s secret weapon!"
Everyone nodded in agreent.
Although there was a counterasure to the white powder, the Fla Demon Tribe’s ballista arrays and throwing weapons could still cause significant casualties.
If before the army charges, these Fla Demon Tribe attack weapons could be entirely destroyed, the assault on the city walls would be unimpeded!
