Chapter 247 The Violent Shelling in the South of Aruba

About horse-drawn carriages unloaded the heavy artillery pulled behind the vehicle, and the rebel soldiers used manpower and horsepower to adjust the heavy artillery.

Five hundred heavy artillery pieces were quickly arranged in five rows, each row containing one hundred heavy artillery pieces.

Although Lent only led rebels here.But it carried a large number of heavy artillery and various heavy equipment.

These five hundred heavy artillery are still specially used for siege types.

The soldiers of the rebel army were well-trained to load five hundred siege heavy artillery with heavy shells with a diameter of centimeters.

Each front and rear row adjusts the inclination of the muzzle according to different distances.

Artillery observers made constant observations.

The range of these five hundred heavy siege artillery can reach more than a thousand meters.

Because the city of Aruba is built on a tall giant cliff, the distance design can ensure the greatest degree of safety.

Moreover, although the rebel army hated the king's army and the king extremely, they did not want to harm the civilians in the city.

So at a distance of one thousand meters, Lunt ordered to prepare for artillery bombardment.

The muzzles of the siege heavy artillery pieces are all raised up quite high, because the bottom part of the tall city walls in Arubana are built on the cliffs hundreds of meters above the ground, requiring long steps to go up.

Lunt was riding on a tall black horse, and a rebel officer came galloping on horseback.

"General Lunt, our siege heavy artillery unit is ready." The officer reported to him.

Lunt looked towards Arupana, a thousand meters away. This capital was both his hometown and the place where his heart ached.

And the king Neferutali Cobra, whom he and the officers and soldiers of the rebel army hated, was also inside.

"Okay, start bombarding and destroying the city wall of Arupana" Lunt gave the order firmly.

"Yes, General Lunt"

After receiving the order, the officer hurried down to deliver the order.

The rebel army's siege heavy artillery troops also quickly conveyed orders layer by layer.

The five platoons of siege heavy artillery units are all ready to shoot.

The gunners in the first row had already pulled the ropes of the siege heavy artillery to the point where they were ready to fire at any time.

"First round of shelling, open fire"

The artillery officer gave the order.

The gunners of the first row of siege heavy artillery yanked the rope.

Rows of one hundred heavy artillery shells were fired, and the shells flew towards the tall city wall of Aruba on the huge cliff with trajectory.

The heavy artillery shells hit the top of the tall city wall, and the sound of explosions sounded from a distance.

The city defense troops on the city wall of Arubana felt the ground shaking like an earthquake.

The ear-piercing sound of shell explosions was the same as that of thunder.

A staggering amount of smoke rose from the high southern walls of Arubana.

After waiting for the thick smoke to dissipate, the top of the tall city wall was beaten like a sieve.

There are huge craters on the tall city walls.

In addition to the bomb craters, the cracks on the city wall are also intertwined.

But the shelling was not over.

After the rebel artillery officer made a brief observation, he ordered: "Second round of shelling, open fire."

The gunners of the second platoon of heavy siege artillery yanked the ropes.

The second row of siege heavy artillery also fired a hundred heavy artillery shells.

Another hundred heavy artillery shells hit the tall and strong city walls of Arubana.

"Boom, boom, boom, boom..."

There was a sound of shaking the ground for a while, and the city wall to the south of Aruba also shook violently.

This round of shelling caused greater damage on the basis of the previous shelling. The craters and cracks caused by the previous shelling were integrated with this shelling, resulting in even larger craters and cracks in the city wall.

On the artillery position of the rebel army, the third platoon of siege heavy artillery units entered combat preparations.

The heavy siege artillery in the first row has already begun to deliver heavy artillery shells for loading, and the heavy siege artillery in the second row is preparing to deliver heavy artillery shells.

After the artillery officer observed, he gave an order to the third row of heavy siege artillery.

"Third round of shelling, open fire"

The gunner of the third row of heavy siege artillery yanked the rope.

Another hundred heavy artillery shells were fired from the muzzle of the cannon and flew towards the damaged but still tall and strong city wall of Arubana.

There was an earth-shattering explosion for a while, shaking the earth and shaking the mountains.The tall and strong city walls suffered more damage.

The tall walls of this thousand-year-old city were built thousands of years ago.Today's attacks are unprecedented.

Alabasta has been stable and peaceful since the Neferutali family ruled here.That was before the advent of gunpowder weapons and cannons.But now these terrifying siege heavy artillery are firing rows of heavy artillery shells at the city's tall walls.

After three rounds of bombardment, the tall city wall to the south of Arubana was already full of huge craters and cracks.

Lunt rode on a tall black horse and looked at the tall city walls of Arubana, which had been shelled.

The city wall in front of him is not a huge fortification at all, but a barrier between him, the rebel army and the king's army.

This barrier was created by the blood of countless people.It cannot be resolved through simple negotiations.

The hatred and pain brought about by the war made more people jealous, and only revenge and blood for blood were in their hearts.

For the rebel army, King Cobra and the King's Army are life and death enemies.

The artillery officer of the rebel army gave a new attack order after another observation.

"Fourth round of shelling, open fire"

The fourth row of siege heavy artillery units opened fire, and one hundred heavy artillery shells were fired.

One hundred heavy artillery shells hit the tall city wall in the south of Aruba, which was already severely damaged.

A violent explosion sounded, and flames and thick smoke shrouded the huge city wall to the south.

This round of bombardment blasted down more masonry.

These hard bricks and stones have not been damaged for thousands of years, but now they are ruthlessly destroyed in the face of the fierce attack of heavy siege artillery.

After the rebel artillery officer observed it, he quickly issued a new attack order.

"Fifth round of shelling, open fire"

The last hundred cannonballs were fired, and the cannonballs flew towards Aruba's tall southern city wall.

After this round of shells hit the tall city wall of Arubana, there was a shocking explosion for a while. In this explosion, there were far more gravel falling than the previous shellings.

The previous four violent bombardments had severely damaged the tall city wall in the south of Arubana, and this round connected the previous craters and cracks.

After the flames and gunpowder smoke cleared, the city wall had been astonishingly destroyed.

There are almost no cracks on the entire tall city wall.

But after all, it was very strong and did not collapse directly.But if there are five more rounds of heavy artillery bombardment, it will definitely be destroyed.

Lunt rode on a burly black horse, looking at the broken south wall of Arubana.

This wall will surely be destroyed.
