Chapter 1112 - The Fall of the Southern Wall

With the advent of the two Royal Zodiac Battalions, dominated by their respective Royal Zodiac Generals, a majority of the Pandarens were subsequently redeployed to the Southern Walls since the Pandawans trusted the army to handle the situation in the North on their own.
The Pandawans felt that the Royal Zodiac soldiers would function better with their own troops and that random cultivators with no military discipline might just hinder them. This also gave the inexperienced Pandawans leading the rest of the cultivators to focus on one area, lessening their burden, since the South so far had only been able to use its advantage of elemental ammunition and equipment they could find within Demopolis.
Hence a major portion of the main Battle Tanks was also deployed to the Southern shores, leaving the Royal Zodiac soldiers with just a set number of tanks they felt would be sufficient for their own purposes. All these changes in the battle order worked wonders in aiding with the morale of the Pandarens while being used to slow the horde down.
Those tanks' interfaces were the same as what Xiong Da and the rest had used before in the Goblin War. As long as the Pandarens remained calm and had a sound mind, they were able to handle the controls of the tanks rather easily by following the instructions via their half masks.
In addition, the System had dramatically increased the ease of interface, allowing simpler handling of the tanks comparable to the other military equipment that were in Demopolis. However, having good equipment was useless if the Pandarens were not able to handle the stress of the ever increasing difficulty of the Bone Spirit Sea Demon Horde.
Thus, without the expertise of the Royal Zodiac soldiers, there were multiple situations where Pandarens had to retreat because the Demons started to overwhelm them, leaving the shoreline empty for the Horde to move forth.
Thankfully, that did not mean the Horde had it easy. There were still Pandarens assigned on the Demopolis Walls who were tasked to remote denoting the partially destroyed tanks to further delay the advance of the Southern Horde whenever necessary.
Unfortunately, they could only do so much before the Horde reached the Demopolis Walls, causing Pandawan Bin Yong and Bu Dong who were in charge of the Southern front to call for the retreat of the Southern Demopolis Wall.
Nevertheless, that was not the end of the fight as mentioned earlier. The Pandarens as usual were able to arm their discarded equipment with explosives before they moved to their secondary line of defence.
The Suburban areas.
If the Bone Spirit Sea Demon Horde were going to advance, they were not going to make it easy for them at all. Sadly, this also meant that their primary way of attacking the Ooofpa Loopa was disrupted since their artillery guns had to be discarded as an accessory for the explosions to temporarily halt the Bone Spirit Sea Demon Horde climbing on the walls.
Yet, Xiong Da had a fairly shrewd idea in his mind. He told the Pandarens to aim and load their artillery guns before abandoning them. Apparently, there was a Pandaren within their midst that was able to wire all the artillery guns to a remote control button, allowing the Southern Walls to give one last offensive volley against the Ooofpa Loopa before they destroyed the artillery guns. (Lest the few that had been trampled by the Bone Spirit Sea Demons.)
Some of the Pandarens thought that the loss of their wall meant that they had lost the raid instance, and their despair almost drove them to have no hope.
"Do not waver! The North is under control by the Royal Zodiac Battalions!! The best our country has to offer! All we need to do is to concentrate on the Southern side, reducing the collateral damage!" Xiong Da reinforced through the announcements and reiterated to them that the needed manpower is still coming in from the airstrip as well as the Pandarens from the North being redeployed to the South.
All they had to do was to hold their ground until the Royal Zodiac Battalions managed to stop the Northern side.
And just as the two Generals were plummeting the Bone Spirit Demon Horde in the North, they did not notice that there was something brewing within the fog at the base of the Northern Ooofpa Loopa. Neither did the Pandarens in the South notice anything as the two Boss Monsters were being held at bay with roughly the same amount of hit points. Still because of the forceful takeover of the Southern Demopolis Wall, it seemed that the Southern Ooofpa Loopa was about to cause more chaos compared to the Northern one.
And with the sea no longer in check by the Pandarens, the Southern Ooofpa Loopa had full reign to do what it pleased without much counter… or that was what it thought until it sensed multiple incoming missiles from the centre of the city heading towards it.
Similar to the procurement of tanks, the Pandarens had invested enough in the war efforts that they had acquired rocket trucks. The fairly iconic Russian Katyusha rocket launchers were at their disposal and Xiong Da did not hesitate to bring what they could find in the Demopolis bas.e.m.e.nt to the battlefield. Once a centrepiece in the Russian military during the second world war, the ones the Pandarens possessed had been tuned with far better rocket navigation and aiming systems. The artillery guns might have been disposed of after the remote activation of the final volley of attacks but the Pandarens still had a way to fight back.
The only problem was that the delay between each volley of missiles from the rocket trucks was rather immense due to the slow reloading of missiles done by a few Pandarens. It made it unviable for the rocket trucks to do as much damage as they had been able to do before the Southern Ooofpa Loopa got immune to the elemental attacks.
Yet, every bit counted until the Pandawans on the surface got a mysterious transmission from Shi Zuo and Luo Bo that they might have potentially found a way to fight toe to toe with the Southern Ooofpa Loopa.
