The gun battery.
"Nine, ten, twelve... sixteen!"
Su Ye raised his spyglass, carefully counting the fresh, still-dripping human skewers on the docks.
A moment later, he lowered the spyglass with a hint of regret.
"What a pity... We only killed sixteen before the Shu Family reacted."
"Otherwise, if they'd continued their suicidal charge, we could have taken Copper Drum Bay with just the ballistas..."
As he thought this, Su Ye shook his head and laughed self-deprecatingly.
'What am I thinking? Things are never that good...'
'Achieving this much is already an unexpected and welcome surprise!'
This outcome was only possible because the gun battery had fallen, followed by the fire oil attack, plunging everything into chaos.
Add to that the Sea Crocodile breaking into the harbor, threatening the spirit ship fleet that was the Shu Family's very lifeblood!
All these factors combined caused the Shu Family cultivators to lose their composure and think unclearly.
