Chapter 28 Cheers of Victory (Thank you to the loyal leader for the reward!)
Coming to Laian City, on the city defense tower, Scott put down the charged rifle in his hand.
Although the air is filled with moist water droplets, which greatly reduces the power of the rechargeable rifle, there will be no problem in killing a Scout Eagle.
As long as the opponent dares to show his head and does not make any preparations, he will definitely die, but the problem is not to show his head.
Looking at the mountain camp in the distance that was still shrouded in fog, Scott frowned slightly.
Before the fog rose, he had already observed the group of mountain people.
Although after the thunder attack and the raid led by Yin En, today's mountain troops are obviously disorganized when marching, the troops with the Ascendants as the core are still very stable - two Ascendants went to pursue Yin En
, now the remaining one seems to be injured as well, but because of this, there is only one voice left in the entire team.
An army with three brains and an army with only one core, at least in terms of fulfilling orders, are faster with the latter.
At this moment, ten mountain people walked out of the smoke at the position in the distance. They held simple projectile cannon barrels and fired small black dots in the direction of Laian City's fortifications.
The beams of charged rifles hit the helmets and armor of these soldiers, but a layer of moist ointment alleviated the heat released by the light-emitting ammunition, so that these soldiers were only startled, and two of them were burned, but not
not dead.
And the small dots they fired were not cannonballs, but concentrated smoke blocks. Large tracts of thick fog not only covered the mountain people's positions, but also shrouded Anseong's fortifications.
Now neither side can use long-range precision strikes.
"Do you need me to take action?"
Adlbert stood next to Scott. Although Yin En did not entrust him with anything, the warm-hearted dead king still felt embarrassed to do nothing during the war, so he took the initiative to come to the position.
"I heard from the adults that you are a water sublimator."
The Iron People were not polite. He pointed in the direction of the mountain people's position in the fog: "Can you see through the fog and know the enemy's movements? Or can you quickly disperse the fog?"
"Simple."
Adebert looked at the mountain people's position, and the faint spiritual fire flashed in the depths of his eyes. He counted skillfully: "Two squadrons, nearly 300 troops are moving. They are wearing light armor and are heading towards
Go in the direction of the woods around Laian Lake."
Scott looked at Adlbert and couldn't help but take a closer look. He didn't expect to get such detailed information. Where did his lord find another clairvoyant? The friends he met outside were too powerful, right?
, capable of scientific research and strong.
But in fact, Adelbert is even more powerful than he imagined.
"It seems that when they are facing us head-on, they want to send an elite team to bypass the position, use the woods as cover, and raid our rear from the side of the lake."
After receiving the information, Scott understood clearly. He turned his head and looked towards the lake: "But that area was originally a key defense area. There is a magnetic storm coil there and various traps and fortifications. They will not have an easy time."
"Colen, call Lan Dian and ask him to lead his mercenary team to strengthen the defense."
The messenger responded. Scott continued to command.
The number of mountain militia troops is still overwhelming compared to the defenders of Laian City, and because Yin En and Qing Chao brought most of the magnetic storm armors out for the raid, and they have not yet returned to the army, most of them are militiamen.
Anseong did not have any possibility of taking the initiative to fight, and could only resort to tactics.
But compared to the gloomy atmosphere in the city before the war, the morale of the current defenders is very good - the lord can actually trigger thunder to bombard the enemy? This kind of thing is too wonderful, whether it is a sublimated skill or some kind of weapon,
Or to say that the lord is really the destined lord of An City is enough to inspire people.
Adebert dispersed the fog on the side of Laian City. Although there were soldiers who continued to fire smoke blocks in an attempt to block the fire attack on Laian City, Adebert dispersed the fog faster than they fired.
Moreover, he can also see through and report points.
"Suppress the enemy position."
Based on the intelligence fed back by Adelbert, Scott began to direct the fire strike. The sound of cannon fire sounded, and more than a dozen ordinary artillery in the city fired ammunition one after another, bombarding the foggy area in the distance.
The shells exploded on the ground, kicking up large swaths of sand and dust, but it was difficult for these gunpowder weapons to cause fatal damage to the mountaineer troops.
The trenches dug by the earth-type sublimators and the walls built by the earth-type sublimators can well block the firepower of the artillery shells. The warhead of the alchemy artillery alone costs nearly ten talers, and the specific craftsmanship is even more complicated, unless it is the enemy's second-level sublimator.
appear, otherwise it would be impossible to use such expensive things as suppression props.
The mountain people's troops also began to fight back. They originally planned to attract the attention of Anseong and provide cover for the elite squadron that took advantage of the mist to shift.
For a time, there was a heavy artillery fire.
If you expect to fight an ordinary war in Terra, using bows, arrows, swords and guns to decide the outcome, I'm afraid you have to go to the dark forest in northern Terra, which is a real wilderness. Even Harrison Port, the southernmost place in the world, fights with the indigenous people.
, it is also after the artillery suppression, the sublimators from both sides will come forward to decide the direction of the war.
But the mountain people never imagined that their movements would be directly seen through.
"Boss, those are two squadrons!"
The mercenaries led by Lan Dian were still a little uneasy. Although they did think that they would be recruited by the local lords when they were sent here, they were also shocked by Yin En's perfect preparations and various powerful defenses.
But when they saw the squadron of mountain men who were already close to the forest near the lake and were about to break into the city from the side, they still couldn't help but be a little doubtful: "There are less than thirty of us and three magnetic storm armors, can we really stop it?"
?"
[We don’t just have magnetic storm armor]
Lan Dian drives a magnetic storm armor with a ringing sound and an air channel. In the past more than a week, he has been assisting Yin En and the people in the alchemy workshop to perfect the magnetic storm armor and coils, and controls the war weapon for which he has contributed.
He wasn't nervous at all, even layers of blue current flashed on the surface of the armor: [Fight around the magnetic storm coil, bare hands and horns, you charge the magnetic storm coil]
[Whoever comes out of the woods first, direct the arc to blow them up!]
The lurking mountain squadron was just about to speed up and leave the woods, rush into the city to create chaos, and then attack Lai An City's position from the rear. However, they had just left the woods when they heard a strange sound, but it could have given them a dangerous taste.
La' current sound.
A blue and white lightning arc crashed towards the front of the mountain people. The several soldiers at the head were immediately enveloped by the arc, silently emitting green smoke, and fell to the ground like logs. The commander of this unit
To his surprise, he discovered that the Laian City garrison had actually deployed a force here.
Because he still remembered the feeling of being hit by a thunderstorm before, his hair stood on end and he loudly stabilized his troops: "Spread out your positions! The enemy is not many in number, so move forward in a staggered manner!"
Most of the lightning-type sublimates who can control electric current serve in the military. Their ability and speed to block communication have always been the leaders of the vanguard troops. They can quietly lead the troops to raid the enemy's weakest areas and cause huge damage.
, this captain is also a thunder sublimator, and he understands the advantages of his abilities very well.
But no one tried to tie the thunder to the earth and use it for positional defense.
"It's that tower!" some soldiers shouted.
The magnetic storm coil is indeed very conspicuous, especially the dangerous arc flashing around it, which clearly tells everyone that it is the core. Two magnetic storm armors are located at the base of the tower, releasing arc charging, making the top of the magnetic storm coil shine.
The light became more and more dazzling.
"Throw out the spare weapon and divert the current!"
The commander of this mountain army was quite good and had already thought of countermeasures. He took out his metal hand ax from his waist, condensed his own thunder element quality and threw it high towards the magnetic storm coil, saying decisively:
"First and second teams, charge with me!"
The team of mountain men obeyed the order, and for a moment, a large number of flying axes and knives headed towards the magnetic storm coil, and the ground was filled with darkness, just like a small dark cloud. The captain's thunder element turned these weapons into a simple lightning detonator.
The thunder from the magnetic storm coil struck these metal weapons, but did not hit anyone.
Seeing this scene, the commander breathed a sigh of relief. With the speed of the troops advancing, as long as he deflected the first wave of attacks from the magnetic storm coil, he could rush to the side of the fortifications and lead his team to deliver a fatal blow to the defending troops.
It's just a pity that they really underestimated the preparations for coming to Ancheng.
When a mountain soldier was stepping on the ground, he felt as if he had stepped on something hard.
Before he lifted his feet, he already felt that something was wrong, but it was too late to think about it.
An explosion occurred at the sole of his foot.
Time seems to freeze here.
The mountain commander slowly opened his eyes. He saw a soldier beside him being blown away by a mine explosion that appeared under his feet. The high-speed metal shrapnel collided with his armor, creating dents.
The soldiers' blood was flying in the air, carrying a warm and real breath, as well as the smell of death.
Then there were continuous explosions, and soldiers were constantly blown away by the mine array, and a large part of them did not even die. This was entirely due to the strong physical fitness and armor quality of the Terrans, and the support of Feiyandi
The weapons and equipment are all regular military grade.
But this only made me more desperate.
Wails sounded on the battlefield, and the team of mountain people began to slow down as fast as possible, even retreating, while the charged light stream of the magnetic storm coil lit up again.
"*** Imperials!" The commander knew that the situation was over. Even if the number of surviving troops still exceeded 250, he still had an overwhelming advantage over the defenders, but he would never be able to launch a second charge.
.
He raised his sword, preparing for a final charge, but Blue Lightning didn't even look at him, but turned back to charge the magnetic storm coil.
The light surged.
An arc of lightning struck and hit the mountain commander.
The magnetic storm coil flashes with an endless stream of light, turning everything into fly ash equally.
The mountain people's sneak attack force failed.
The mountain people headquarters didn't know this yet. Tie Chen commanded the troops to exchange firepower with the defenders, but his heart gradually sank.
——Snake Yan and Zhenzhou are chasing each other, or they are armored and fighting against the body. They should have captured the White People boy long ago. Why haven't they come over yet?
Although this would prevent him from being robbed of the credit for regaining An City, a possibility suddenly emerged in the chief's mind that he couldn't believe: "Could it be that that white-haired boy is really that difficult to deal with, why should he run away?"
Already?"
"It's really not impossible. That's the second level of fairy blood. If I really want to run, I don't know how fast I can run..."
However, just when the news of the failure of the raiding force had not yet been sent back.
Here comes the real bad news.
"Chief! Enemy troops appear behind us!"
When he heard the news, Tie Chen thought he was hallucinating. He turned his head and looked at the rear of his position, and couldn't help but feel extremely surprised - at the other end of the mountain road, more than thirty magnetic storm armors had gathered in a group, and
The white-haired lord was commanding in mid-air, leading the torrent of steel and thunder forward to attack.
Yin En immediately found the retreating magnetic storm armor troops, then led them to circle back and directly attack the rear of the mountain people troops.
This is an attack that determines victory or defeat, and he is full of confidence.
"What's going on?! Where are Zhenzhou and Sheyan!?"
Tie Chen took a breath of cold air, and immediately ordered the troops to reverse direction, mobilizing alchemy artillery to bombard these magnetic storm armors that came from behind. Now that they were not attacked by thunder, the formation was very stable. The Imperials thought they could defeat them from both sides.
This is a big mistake. Once he eats this magnetic storm armored force, he can attack the city head-on without any scruples!
But at this moment, Yin En had already raised his sword.
It was not the Chongyuan Iron Sword, but the Steel Pattern Sword. The ordinary long sword was now covered with a layer of chilling intertwined ice blades, and all those in the Magnetic Storm Armor also raised their own Magnetic Storm Launchers.
"charge!"
The earth roared, and the steel exoskeleton power armor trampled the earth, causing the trees and rocks on both sides to shake leaves constantly, shaking constantly, and the mud on the ground created waves like a sea tide.
The first wave of artillery from the mountaineers reversed direction, and they had already begun to take aim.
But Yin En's speed was as fast as a meteor. When the artillery fire roared, he raised his sword to slash horizontally, and the oncoming cannonballs were cut open. His sword wind continued to extend forward, cutting the outermost shell.
The mountain people and soldiers all pushed them down and flew away.
Then, he crashed into the back end of the mountain soldiers, erupting large swathes of broken rocks, armor remnants, and flesh and blood fragments. The mountain soldiers retreated shuddering, leaving a circular vacuum area, and landed in the
Yin En here raised his head. There were no other mountain soldiers in his eyes, only the astonished Chief Tiechen.
Behind him, lightning arcs lit up one after another. The team in magnetic storm armor followed Yin En and crashed into the rear of the mountain people. Amidst the smell of coke and barbecue, a large number of soldiers collapsed. They pushed
He was pushing and trying to leave this place, causing the entire formation to become chaotic.
"The enemy is in chaos!"
Coming to Ancheng, Scott was keenly aware of the huge shouting of killing coming from behind the mist. He turned his head and looked at Adlbert who was standing aside, and got a definite answer: "Yin En is right there."
"Artillery support!" The Iron People did not decide to charge out of the city and attack Yin En from both sides, because he knew that the next mountain people's troops would definitely collapse and leave the range shrouded in clouds and mist.
Immediately afterwards, whether it is a salvo of artillery or charged rifles, it will cause huge damage.
That's really the best way to support.
At this moment, Yin En and Tie Chen were confronting each other.
One man and one sword destroyed the enemy formation. This is not uncommon in Terra, but when both sides have the same energy level, and even the number of Ascendants is several times that of one side, it can only be said to be incredible that such a scene still occurs.
"Damn the White People brat, die!"
Tie Chen had no mood or room to talk nonsense anymore. He picked up his battle ax from the side. Although his lumbar spine was still a little aching from the previous armored battle, he still believed in his own strength.
Dongdongdong——The burly leader of the mountain people ran without hesitation. He led a team of his own guards to attack Yin En.
"The corpse is talking."
But Yin En raised his sword, and he also started to charge. Han Hui's skeleton pushed him to accelerate, causing the ice blue sword edge to arc in mid-air.
Everyone present could see an icy blue stream of light sweeping across the entire battlefield.
A gust of cold wind blew, and Yin En appeared behind Tie Chen and his troops. He slowly sheathed his sword.
And at the moment when the steel-patterned sword was completely sheathed, Tie Chen and his personal guards were all cut off at the waist.
Blood spurted out, but Tie Chen was still alive. The medicine injected before made his vitality extremely tenacious, and even his strength and speed were greatly improved, but it was still not enough in front of Yin En, who also took the medicine.
He wanted to say something else, but Yin En didn't listen.
The ice gradually spread, freezing Tie Chen's head and making his eyes lose their luster.
The last mountain chief died, and the mountain army completely collapsed - they began to cry and run away, while Lai'an City in the distance fired beams of charged rifles, killing the soldiers who escaped.
And when Yin En led the magnetic storm armor troops to appear in the sight of Laian City, the entire battlefield fell into silence temporarily, and everyone's eyes were locked on their lord.
They created all these situations, brought new technologies, defeated the enemy, and took the lead in breaking through the enemy's formation. They deserved to be their lord and leader.
Immediately afterwards, there were cheers - cheers of victory!
