The firelight that exploded, the sound of the collapse of the signal tower and the rapid spreading fire reflected the entire night sky around it, causing countless islanders to fall into intense panic and uneasiness.

At this moment, they realized that the war had begun!

Overnight, all the signal flares on this island were blown up by the sudden explosion. After receiving this bad news, the Sakura general stationed at the island went crazy on the spot.

Communication equipment in this era is far less advanced than that in the real world. Although it already has radio communication technology, if you want to conduct long-distance communication, especially when there are relatively long distances, you must build multiple huge signal towers to be responsible for receiving and transmitting radio signals.

Now these signal towers have been destroyed overnight by the other party. This situation can only be said to be too bad.

If Yamamoto’s seven-by-eight archipelago is compared to a whole, then at this moment, with all signal towers being blown up, the communication between the island they are located and other islands has been completely cut off.

This is undoubtedly the first round of offensive of the invaders!

“How long does it take for those signal towers to be rebuilt?”

In this era, building a signal tower is by no means an easy task, because there are technical problems, so it often takes a lot of time.

The answer given by the technician made the cherry blossom general sank.

Although their military also has communication vehicles with independent radio communication equipment that can be used and has its own signal transmission and reception devices, the signal coverage area of ​​the communication vehicles is too small compared to that of the signal tower.

When going out for war, it is naturally enough to use it in the battlefield area, but if you want to achieve long-distance communication between islands, let alone communication vehicles, a signal tower is not enough.

They need to build several signal towers to form a communication line that is long enough. Even so, if there is a bad weather, the signal may not be stable.

This is also the most common phenomenon in this era.

But at the same time, it is undeniable that convenient communication equipment has penetrated into the daily lives of the people. The signals disappeared overnight, and all communication equipment and even broadcasts were unable to be used. This situation made the islanders who were originally filled with panic in their hearts, and their entire state became even worse.

Even the cities on the island have shown some chaos.

During this period, Xia Qi, who had directly cut off the communication between the other party, naturally had already grasped the initiative in his hands at this moment. The army gathered in the port city started to advance immediately.

At the same time, Yamamoto Qizhiba, who has been unable to contact the front line since this morning, has almost twisted his eyebrows, and the strong uneasiness in his heart is stimulating every nerve in his heart.

Faced with the missing island cities, a group of technicians could only draw one conclusion after repeated confirmation, that is, the signal tower opposite might have failed.

This answer obviously cannot satisfy Yamamoto Qizhiba.

It will not malfunction early or late, but it will fail at this time. This is absolutely impossible to be a coincidence!

In other words, the opponent took action and the invader destroyed the signal tower built on the island.

But how is this possible?

As an important facility of this era, the signal tower has been carefully considered in the construction location of each tower, and it is definitely not a place where enemy troops can easily approach it.

Yamamoto Shimahara Yamamoto, who had no idea what happened on that island, faced with all kinds of uncontrollable random thoughts, he felt that his mind was almost messy.

It was also during this period that amid the roar of artillery fire, the expeditionary army under Xia Qi had already launched an attack.

Sakura occupies a fortress stronghold and cannot retreat, trying to defend to win time.

Xia Qi obviously had prepared for this, so he brought Jin Ming with him to prevent this.

Although they were in the Monarch airship at this time, they were on the battlefield and had a complete set of enhanced buffs on them still took effect.

With Jin Ming, the siege master, all the defensive buildings in front of you are all floating clouds.

At this moment, in the artillery position outside the battlefield, a communication vehicle carrying a full set of radio communication equipment is working.

The artillery troops that quickly confirmed the enemy's coordinates quickly adjusted the artillery angle.

Then, accompanied by a command, amid the dense sound of shells, a large number of shells directly crushed towards the Cherry Blossom position.

During this period, a soldier was adjusting the equipment in his hand, quickly confirming the position of the shell shooting point, and then quickly opening.

“Architecture Coordinate Calibration, (310,241,238).”

Hearing this, a goblin messenger sitting in front of the radio communication equipment quickly began to send orders.

"Architecture coordinate calibration, (310,241,238), repeat!Architecture coordinate calibration! (310,241,238)."

For artillery units, airships are definitely an extremely excellent reconnaissance unit.

At this time, Xia Qi was not hesitant to let the monarch airship he was riding on to carry out reconnaissance missions and assist the artillery troops in launching artillery bombardment at the enemy's fortress strongholds!

Looking down from a high place, the shells flying out of the gun mouth successively drew clear ballistic trajectories, and then hit the target with a roar. The entire scene can only be described as "spectacular".

At the same time, the artillery unit that received the enhanced buff of Jin Ming was also showing its power at this moment. The terrifying artillery firepower broke the Sakura Fortress on the opposite side in just a few rounds of fire.

Immediately after another round of volleys, the army infantry troops below launched their advances directly according to Xia Qi's order.

From this moment on, this siege battle officially entered the second stage!

As the army advanced, the infantry troops of both sides launched a fierce shooting battle. The dense gunshots were almost endless on the entire battlefield.

During this period, a force seized the opportunity and entered the battlefield with strong force. The ace force in Xia Qi's hands, the Imperial City Imperial Guard!

At this time, it was hard to imagine that as the defensive party, the Sakura Guardian, was able to imagine that in this era, besides some special civilizations, they could still see such troops dressed in cold weapons. The heavy armor made them feel heavy all over their bodies. When such units went to the battlefield, they would basically be beaten by fire.

There is no need to say much, the Sakura infantry guarding the fortress bases all raised their rifles and opened fire.

Amid the sound of gunfire, dense bullets swept across directly.

Faced with such an offensive, the Imperial City Imperial Guards, led by Xiong, maintained their formation and allowed the dense rain of bullets to hit them.

The scene that came into their eyes then left countless cherry blossom infantry stunned.

I saw that all the bullets shot out from their muzzles were bounced off?!

Suddenly, the cherry blossom general who was in charge of guarding the fortress was as confused as he was.

However, after a brief incredible moment, he quickly calmed down again.

The Sakura general's first reaction was that he could directly blast the bullets away. How heavy armor on the opponent's body was heavy?

As a result, the next second he thought so, under the command of the bear, the quick movements displayed by the Imperial City Imperial Guards almost made the Sakura General pop out his pair of eyes, as if he was a ghost, and his entire brain temporarily lost his ability to think.

Because, this has exceeded his common sense.

Judging from the movements of the soldiers, the weight of that set of armor is definitely not too heavy. Otherwise, even elite soldiers who have received high-intensity training would not be likely to show such rapid skills when they were wearing heavy armor.

However, based on this conclusion, the bulletproof ability of the armor to show before became a bit incredible.

Even if the cherry blossom general wants to break his head, it is impossible for him to figure this out.

Because at this moment, the set of armor on the Imperial City Guard was the latest bulletproof armor made by the craftsmen of Daxia using the outer armor of the iron armor beast as the main material.

The total weight is lighter than most heavy armors, but it has excellent bulletproof ability. Striving off the relatively rare materials, relatively long manufacturing cycles, and high costs, these are not considered disadvantages. This set of bulletproof armor can be said to be perfect!

After having this set of armor, the medium-sized shields that were originally standardized as the Imperial City Imperial Guards no longer need to be equipped. At the vacant position, Xia Qi directly equipped the Imperial City Imperial Guards with a rifle, training them into an ace force with both melee and long-distance combat capabilities!

Relying on the armor on his body, the Imperial City Guards quickly picked up the rifles in their hands. After showing a skillful set of bullet-up actions, they directly launched aiming and shooting in the rain of bullets.

This attitude can be said to be with obvious actions and unreasonableness.

The Imperial City Imperial Guards just stood there, which was enough to make the morale of the Sakura Guards fall all the way. There is no reason to be said to these guys who can shoot with their firepower!!

The addition of the Imperial City Imperial Guard made this shooting battle like a nightmare for the defenders of Sakura's side. This is definitely an overwhelming army!
Chapter completed!
