Chapter 200 Tentative attack
While Daliang sent reinforcements to the Fortress forward were still on the way, Shi Fei had already launched a tentative attack on the Fortress forward.
The golden dragon and the green dragon took the Pegasus knights to carry out deterrent forward pressure from the air, and at the same time conducted high-altitude reconnaissance on the forward fortress.
At this time, the Forward Fortress had formed a complete defensive system, with cliffs on three sides and one side of the hillside. The edge of the cliff was built with high walls, and a castle was built on the top of the mountain. A large number of various types of crossbows were arranged in the platform on the top of the castle and the shooting holes around it, forming an air defense position that could provide firepower support to the entire Forward Fortress.
The hillside has been rested and leveled, without any attack corners or hidden objects. As long as the attacking party goes up the hillside, it is covered by various long-range firepower from the defender.
The plane portal is located on the mountain wall diagonally below the castle, at the core of air defense, and dozens of catapults were arranged in front of it. This place is a concentrated delivery position for heavy long-range firepower, responsible for the firepower support of the entire battlefield.
The plane portal is distributed in a fan shape, with small defensive strongholds arranged in each stronghold, with cannons, crossbows and a large number of skeleton soldiers installed.
Shi Fei observed the entire fortress defense circle from the air and sighed in his heart: When did the undead tribe be so rich when the luxury and intensive use of war equipment? At the same time, he also thought that he had finally caught a big guy this time.
The tactic that the undead is good at is the Skeleton Sea, but this hilly position cannot exert the power of the Skeleton Sea. If you want to defend it, you must build such a defensive fortress and use war equipment to make up for the weakness of the undead long-range firepower points.
The more the undead invested in this fortress, the more valuable the things they were protecting. Shi Fei can now confirm that the Forgotten Hill opposite the plane portal was hidden inside the main force of the Blue Alliance in the jurisdiction of Sigh City, and they are looking for an opportunity to initiate a rebellion.
This is the letter of conferring a sorrowful monarch.
Shi Fei immediately contacted the staff department of the dominant legion: "Do you have any good plans for attacking such a defensive system?"
The staff officer replied: "This undead fortress is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it uses war equipment in large quantities. If you attack from the front, you can only rely on war equipment and magic cover, slowly dig tunnels and build covers to advance layer by layer. This is the safest to fight... We can kill this fortress with certain casualties.
But this is based on the fact that the opponent has no reinforcements.
We don’t know the full strength of this undead army, and it is difficult to make a more accurate war deduction."
Since Shi Fei determined that this was a blue coalition, the other side must have reinforcements. Shi Fei did not think of a comprehensive confrontation with this blue coalition. His purpose was just to obtain evidence.
"We don't need to destroy this undead army. The goal of this battle is to enter that plane portal and use the magic ball to record the images inside.
We don't fight attributable to them.
At the beginning of the general attack, the frontal attack, sneak attack on three sides, and air pressure, pull all the forces of the defenders into the battle in the shortest time, and then let the air combat troops of the dominant legion assault the plane portal.
As long as you get the key evidence, the entire army will retreat immediately."
"Yes, Legion Commander! We will prepare this battle plan immediately."
The new combat plan is being formulated, Shi Fei's Dragon Star Leader's elves army has begun to conduct a tentative attack on the forward fortress.
The elves archers and dwarves seized the undead sentries and troops outside the fortress, and a centaur team lined up five scattered lines to launch a charge towards the fortress on the mountain.
The catapult cart mounted in the rear threw the bundled... Jinfen No. 1.
Jinbang No. 1 dispersed in the air and exploded after landing, causing pieces of smoke and dust to cover the charge of the Centaur brigade.
The attack launched by the Dragon Star Leader's elves was immediately attacked by the defenders. For a moment, the cannons rumbling and arrows were like rain. The same cluster of Golden Blast No. 1 was also thrown out, and the dense explosions blew the charge of the centaur all over the floor.
What a luxury!
Shi Fei did not expect that the defenders would use such a degree of long-range firepower in the face of the attack of centaurs, especially the alchemy bombs. The defenders not only used catapults to throw them, but also had many spears shot out by the crossbows tied up the Golden Blast No. 1 produced in the Mist District of Sigh City.
The centaurs were beaten to the point of being evaded, but they fulfilled their responsibilities and tested the long-range firepower that the defenders had.
Very strong, the strong ones are beyond Shi Fei's imagination. If the Dragon Star Leader cannot form enough firepower to suppress during the official attack, it will be difficult to put enough pressure on the defenders and create opportunities for the assault forces.
Siege equipment needs to be added, and these can be purchased on-site in consultation with Palm Tree City, but...alchemy bombs.
The best alchemy bomb on the market is Jinbang No. 1 produced in the Mist District of Sigh City, which is convenient for portability and transportation. It is an absolute best-seller among players.
The price of a gold bomb No. 1 is 500 gold. Just once the test attack on the Dragon Star Collar, 100 were thrown out. Shi Fei brought less than 2,000 gold bomb No. 1 this time. Seeing the undead on the opposite side throwing gold bomb No. 1 so unambiguously, Shi Fei felt that the batch of gold bomb No. 1 he brought seemed to be a bit insufficient.
At least 10,000 more are needed.
Shi Fei plans to end the battle within two days from the general attack. If you want to suppress the defenders' long-range firepower, you need enough bombing.
Throwing stone carts and airborne drops require Golden Blast No. 1.
After the attack time is suppressed, the alchemy bomb must be replenished.
The origin of Jinbang No. 1 is the foggy area of Sigh City. Shi Fei immediately ordered his liaison officer to place an order to the alchemy store selling Jinbang No. 1. The alchemy bomb cannot be placed in the player's backpack, so transportation will be a little more troublesome.
First, Shi Fei will send a group of players with flying mounts to arrive at the Death Kingdom through friendly players' undead territory. Then, through teleportation between cities within the Death Kingdom, the player will return to the main world with the sell-off Golden Bang 1, then enter the dreamland through the Dragon Star Leader, and finally arrive at the Palm Tree City through the city teleportation.
If you can use the legion flag well during this period, the transportation speed will be faster.
This is also because the Golden Bang One is easy to carry. If it is a normal alchemy bomb for catapults, players cannot carry it and can only transport it through the road, which is too slow.
Even so, it will take at least two days for Shi Fei to complete the procurement and transportation of this batch of Jinbang No. 1.
The purchase fee of 10,000 gold bomb No. 1 is 5 million gold, and the transmission fee during transportation is also hundreds of thousands of gold.
However, the interests of the war cannot be measured by money. Shi Fei quickly allocated the funds to urge the logistics department to transport this batch of gold bomb No. 1 to the front line in the most effective way.
Monica saw the entire battle process in the castle on the top of the mountain. It was obvious that the enemy had just launched a temptation, but it was a bit beyond her expectations that the opponent actually used the Golden Bang One in the battle.
Then she received the news that the Black Fire Ledger received 10,000 gold bomb No. 1 orders from the Alchemy Store in the Mist District.
"It seems that the enemy is preparing to fight a bombing battle with us of the Golden Bang One. We can only fight with them in order to achieve the sales of the Golden Bang One.
All reinforcements who informed us were on standby in Forgotten Hills, and all soldiers above level 7 in the fortress retreated to the castle.
The siege equipment in front doubled, and no gold bomb No. 2 is allowed, all gold bomb No. 1 is allowed.
