Tiandou Empire military camp.

"Sister Ali, is this too much pressure for you?" Xue Ke asked.

This time, Xue Ke led the army in person, and the two princes Ning Fengzhi and Yu Yuanzhen did not come. The two sects each sent 500 disciples to go with the army, along with the elite soul masters of the two royal academies, while the two stayed behind in the sect on the grounds of stabilizing the rear.

But with Ning Rongrong here, the two Titled Douluo, Jian and Gu, are still there.

Nan Li shook her head. She raised her hand and pointed at Qing Ya, saying, "Ask him."

Qingya chuckled, "Don't worry, the three-bow crossbow that Senior Lou Gao and I have jointly improved has a range of more than 5,000 meters. We have also installed an adaptive pressure device on the winding shaft. It used to take 30 people to pull the device, but now only six people can operate it."

"This type of siege crossbow can fire seven arrows at a time. The middle arrow is three feet and five inches long, five inches in circumference, and has iron leaves as feathers. Even if the city walls hit by it don't collapse, they will at least have a few holes in them! If we plan the landing points of the arrows in advance, our soldiers can directly climb up to the enemy's towers with the arrows... Even if we fail to capture the city in one siege, the arrows shot on the city walls are not easy to clear, so they may be useful in the next siege."

"And our Star-Breaking Arrows and the Collapsing Thunder designed by Dan Hong have all been improved. They can be used to deal with the enemy like an autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves, invincible! Hahahaha..."

Dan Hong couldn't bear to listen any longer, so he pinched Qingya's waist and whispered, "Be serious."

Qingya immediately changed his posture, stood straight, and said, "According to reliable information, half a month ago, when Xingluo fought with the Wuhun Empire, siege crossbows were already used, and ordinary soldiers were also equipped with star-breaking arrows and handheld three-bow crossbows. With these equipment, the Xingluo Empire defeated the Wuhun Empire..."

"Our equipment is the same as that of the Xingluo Empire. It was all built in Longxing City and transported in batches to various cities on the border of Tiandou and Xingluo. Jialing Pass has natural barriers to rely on, but for our siege crossbows, no matter it is rocks or city walls, we can use arrows to clear the way!"

Xue Ke thought of the siege crossbow she had seen a few days ago, and her heart gradually calmed down. The worry she had about the insufficient number of soul masters disappeared. But she thought of another possibility, and asked with some concern: "Since the siege crossbow can even penetrate rocks, if there are people on the other side..."

Qingya thought she was worried that the crossbow would be blocked by human power, and immediately replied: "Your Majesty, don't worry! The siege crossbow is very powerful. The old version requires thirty people to pull it open. Although the number of people required has decreased after the improvement, the power has increased instead of decreased. Those below the Soul Saint level will only be pierced like a candied haws!"

After hearing this, Nan Li couldn't bite the candied haws in front of him anymore.

The metaphor is very good. Try a different one next time.

Chi Feng's face darkened, knowing that he couldn't feed the baby again today. Originally, only the big one didn't like to eat, but now, the little one also didn't eat.

After getting this answer, Xue Ke said bluntly: "In this case, wouldn't the flesh and blood body only be destined to die?"

Nan Li naturally thought of what Xue Ke thought of, but she ruthlessly tore off the fig leaf of reality, revealing the bloody background: "War is nothing more than more deaths or fewer deaths. If peace talks alone could solve all problems, the continent would have been unified long ago."

"The truth is only within the range of the crossbow. The range of the soul skill determines the dignity of the soul master and the empire."

"I understand." Xue Ke was certainly aware of the cruelty of war and reality, but when she thought that the empire's soldiers might stay on this plain forever and countless citizens of the empire would lose their blood relatives, she could not enjoy the fruits of victory with peace of mind.

In Douluo Continent, the war has never really stopped. The two countries have different positions, but behind the soldiers fighting on the battlefield are also parents, partners and children.

Xue Ke pondered for a moment and said, "Sister Ali, I want to issue a declaration of war. It would be best if ordinary soldiers could not be involved."

Nan Li had no objection to this, "Okay, you can write it like this..."

……

The two countries had been in a stalemate near Jialing Pass for several months. Almost at the same time, Tiandou and Wuhun Empire issued declarations of war to each other.

In the declaration of war, the Tiandou Empire expressed the hope that the two countries would avoid bloody fights between ordinary soldiers and instead have the strongest fighters from the two countries fight one-on-one. The loser would give up the pass or city closest to the battlefield.

Although the Wuhun Empire also hopes to reduce the number of deaths, its suggestion is not to allow ordinary soldiers to participate, and the soul master army should carry out the resistance.

This shows that the two countries have different foundations and reliance.

The few Title Douluo of the Tiandou Empire were mainly strong offensive, and they were not afraid of the Wuhun Empire in terms of top combat power. But if they fought with the Soul Master Corps, even if Tiandou had ten Royal Academies, they would not be able to make up for the gap.

The Wuhun Empire not only has several priests and the soul master corps of the new seven major sects, but also the angel corps. Although Qian Renxue doesn't think she will definitely lose to Nan Li in a one-on-one fight, why should she give up her own advantages and fight according to the enemy's requirements?

Qian Renxue had never faced the power of a siege crossbow, nor did she know that Tiandou had the same siege equipment as Xingluo. So for the sake of her own advantages, Qian Renxue rejected the Tiandou Empire's opinion.

In the end, the two countries only determined the time of the battle through the declaration of war, and the two sides did not reach an agreement on the method of battle.
