149: Chapter 149 Siege

"Come, come, drink!"

"Commander Yu, you've already been thrown here because of drinking, and you're still drinking?"

"I've already been tossed here, wouldn't it be a huge loss if I didn't drink? Hurry, drink!"

"Since Commander Yu has such refined interest, I will respectfully comply."

"Cheers, cheers."

On the city wall, a ten-person round table was placed right in the center.

A Middle-aged Man wearing golden armor with a fleshy, rugged face raised his glass and drained it in one gulp.

"Ha—hiccup."

After letting out a long belch, Commander Yu rubbed his belly, feeling quite at ease.

"Come, have another!"

Beside him, a young soldier filled the glass again.

Commander Yu's hand paused, his eyelids twitched. "Eat some food, is that any way to drink?"

The soldier chuckled. "Reporting to the Commander, I've been drinking like this since I was little."

Commander Yu glared. "Think I'm scared of you? Come, everyone drink."

The others wailed as they picked up their glasses, about to drink.

"Enemy attack—"

A shrill cry pierced the night sky, and the group froze instantly.

"Enemy attack? Damn it!"

Commander Yu slammed the glass he hadn't yet drunk onto the ground and rose in anger.

"No, Commander, you can't just skip drinking like that."

The young soldier exclaimed in surprise; he had just finished his drink, and he hadn't expected Commander Yu to cheat.

"Skip drinking your head! Quickly, grab your weapons."

Commander Yu roared and dashed toward the command room. In a place where no one could see, he reached up and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

On the surveillance screen, the searchlight locked onto a patrol boat.

"This is... a boat?"

"But why is the shape of this boat so strange?"

Commander Yu muttered to himself.

After observing for a long time, he shook his head. "No matter what you are, since you dare to come, then die!"

"Everyone, fire!"

Commander Yu bellowed.

In an instant, artillery along the entire row of the city wall fired in unison.

Meanwhile, the District 1 Players' naval guns and Gatling guns also began to roar.

But because the three-kilometer distance was simply too far.

The naval guns were fine; as long as the shells could reach the destination, the damage wouldn't be insignificant.

Shell after shell blasted the city wall, sending fragments flying everywhere.

But the Players' Gatling guns only had a killing range of one kilometer.

Even if a few bullets hit the city wall, they were as soft and powerless as raindrops.

There was even one soldier who, after being hit by a bullet, plucked the bullet head right out of his arm.

"Haha, Commander, their shells are like a joke, they're so small."

"That's a bullet, not a shell, dammit!"

Commander Yu shouted irritably, feeling much more at ease.

"Damn it, they dare to invade with this kind of strength? I'll kill you all."

"Little ones, fire with full force."

"Yes, Commander!"

The soldiers laughed wildly, frantically stuffing shells into the artillery.

Guarding the coastline was an extremely boring task; it was rare to encounter someone so blind.

Therefore, every time they caught an opportunity, these soldiers would muster all their strength and fire fiercely.

Thousands of cannons fired in unison, instantly leaving the Players wailing everywhere.

"Damn, Boss, I can't take it anymore. I've already repaired twice; I need to retreat for a bit."

"Brothers, if you don't have enough supplies, retreat first and let the Brothers with healthy warships take over."

"Hey, hey, save me, save me."

"..."

Watching their chaotic coordination, Chen Fan couldn't help but be speechless.

"Damn it, who scatters their firepower when sieging a city?"

"Are you just playing around?"

"Good thing I had the foresight to let them practice, otherwise, if they were still like this at the critical moment, they'd be useless!"

Chen Fan opened the area chat and roared:

"Naval guns, group by unit, focus fire on the artillery on the wall. Gatling guns, calculate the bullet drop, strafe the gaps in the wall, don't let their soldiers move around too easily."

Once these words were spoken, the Players instantly had a backbone.

Each group leader also opened the group chat to start commanding.

In an instant, the Players' messy attacks became organized.

With each round of focused fire, they were able to destroy a few cannons.

On the city wall.

"Commander, it's not looking good. The opponent's cannons seem to have greater firepower than ours."

"I'm not blind, dammit!"

The Commander cursed angrily and turned to look at the messenger:

"Bring our big guys over."

The messenger nodded. "How many?"

"Are you blind, dammit? Bring them all over for me!"

"Yes! Commander!"

The messenger ran off in a flash.

More than ten minutes later, rumbling noises sounded continuously.

The soldiers on the wall heard this sound, gritted their teeth, and fired even harder.

"Commander, the catapults are in position."

Commander Yu spat, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and said, "I'm not blind. The sea area three kilometers ahead, blast it for me!"

"Boom, boom, boom—"

Earth-shaking roars rang out one after another.

Chen Fan's eyelids twitched, and he immediately opened the chat window: "The other side is playing for real. Hold the line! Those who really can't take it can exit the dungeon."

"Damn it, I'm not retreating. It's the first time fighting with the Boss, how can I be a deserter!"

"I'm not retreating either, I want to have soup with the Boss."

"Soup! Pioneering!"

"Rumble—"

Over a thousand fire stones, each weighing several tons, were thrown high into the air.

Whistling down, they instantly smashed some warships in half.

Players with abundant supplies instantly repaired their ship hulls.

Some Players who lacked supplies wailed and asked their Crew Members to fetch water to extinguish the fire.

Exiting was impossible; since the Boss was here, they had to at least make a good impression.

These Players gritted their teeth and stubbornly extinguished the fire.

Chen Fan's expression darkened slightly, and his gaze swept toward the fortress on the side.

The energy shield had already been depleted by 10%, which was 10,000 points of energy.

If not for the fortress's 50% damage transfer, one round would probably have sunk many Players.

After pondering for a moment, Chen Fan opened the chat window: "Those without supplies, ask your group leaders. Get your ships repaired first."

"Long live the Boss!"

"Wuwuwu, the Boss is too good to us."

"Brothers, hurry up and repair the ships, they're going to throw fire stones again."

"..."

Before the words faded, another round of fire stones was thrown out.

Fortunately, the group leaders' execution was strong enough; just after Chen Fan finished speaking, they traded supplies to their group members.

On the eve of the second batch of fire stones crashing down, all Players had finished repairs.

However, many warships that had just been repaired were hit by fire stones once again and smashed in half.

"Damn it, is there no end to this? I've been hit twice in a row."

"Fuck, I've also been hit twice. Group leader, give me some supplies quickly, I'm out!"

"Boss, think of a way. This one round costs a massive amount of supplies, we can't afford to keep going."

The Players were blasted to hell and back, wailing continuously.

Inside the city wall command room.

Commander Yu looked at the flames rising everywhere ahead and stroked his beard with satisfaction.

But the next moment, the flames began to extinguish strangely.

"The fire extinguishing speed is actually this fast? Hmph!"

With a cold snort, he ordered to throw stones again.

Another round of fire stones was thrown, and this time, even more ships were set on fire.

Although some flames were extinguished again, more flames continued to burn.

"Let's see you extinguish them again? Heh!"

Commander Yu leaned back on his chair, raised his right hand high, and was about to order the stone throwing again.

The personal guard soldier beside him rolled his eyes. "Commander, should we arrange for some boats to leave the city and prepare to seize their ships?"

Commander Yu pondered for a moment, his eyes rolling:

"Get more, make a big contribution, and see if I can get transferred back."

"Commander, rest assured, I will go and recover all their ships!"

The soldier ran out excitedly.
