Great Zhou's show of strength left Uncle Balai's jaw hanging. If they weren't currently fighting the greenskins, he would have charged straight into Great Zhou's camp to investigate.
During the battle, the Demolition Vehicle's bombardment gave the Great Zhou defensive line an excellent start. To them, the booming explosions sounded just like war drums being pounded, sending the soldiers' morale soaring.
As the greenskin army continued closing in, Shi Lei, the commander, focused all his attention on directing the battle before him.
Following Shi Lei's arrangements, the Great Zhou Crossbow Soldier Unit methodically spread out beyond the defensive wall and formed up to fire.
Then, at his command, row after row of Great Zhou crossbowmen rapidly launched wave after wave of attacks against the approaching greenskin soldiers!
Earlier, when Wojin had suggested forming an alliance with Great Zhou to resist the greenskin invasion, he had mentioned that Great Zhou possessed a fairly capable Crossbow Soldier Unit.
At the time, Balai had not taken it particularly seriously.
When it came to crossbowmen, looking across all the factions in the allied army, no one could surpass Copper Furnace Fortress!
That had given Balai a very deep understanding of this type of soldier.
An expert saw the technique; an outsider saw only the spectacle.
The Crossbow Soldier Unit's firing tactic might look simple enough—one row firing after another in alternating turns, constantly rotating—but in reality, it required quite a bit of skill and experience.

After watching for a while longer, Balai turned and walked down from the wall.
"The battle has only just begun. Aren't you going to watch a little longer, General?"
"No need."
Balai had far too much experience fighting
