Continuous firelights lit up along the river bank, like angry fire dragons dancing wildly.
Every explosion was accompanied by a brutal shock wave. Even if the target was not the survivors who rushed to the dock, the aftermath would still violently knock these people away.
In the explosion, the wooden piles and planks of the temporary dock were blown into pieces and turned into a mess.
Flames jumped on the ruins, reflecting the surrounding river red.
Especially the smell of burning and gunpowder that filled the air made it difficult for everyone to breathe.
"Enemy attack, enemy attack!"
"The aliens are coming, the dwarves are coming, run away, run towards the shelter!"
"Give way, don't be anxious, don't step on me, you damn"
"Go along the safe evacuation channel, don't run around, be careful of enemies attacking from the flanks."
"."
There was fire everywhere around the dock.
The scalding heat wave and thick smoke ignited. The first batch of residents who came to watch the ceremony were frightened by the sudden change and ran away one after another, with panic and helplessness written on their faces.
However, for the residents who were still arriving one after another and thought that the noise just now was to welcome the Tianyuan Fleet, these people were still crowded over excitedly, chatting happily, looking forward to getting a glimpse of the Tianyuan Fleet.
The two parties attacked each other, one from the left and the other from the right, causing even greater chaos.
Frightening stampedes began to occur, and the damage caused by the explosion was less than one-tenth of what it was now.
Fortunately, in the chaos, a smart person finally stood up and took control of the situation loudly:
"Why are you panicking? Su Shen's fleet has already arrived. Are we still afraid of a dwarf with a hammer?"
"Not to mention dwarves, but if there are more foreign races coming, aren't they just giving food?"
"Yeah, damn, why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"Rush back and get weapons. We have to help the fleet repel these damn aliens."
"Let me go, buddy, you are really brave, can I support you with my eyes?"
"Hold on, our escort is here too, and the dwarf is definitely going to hit the iron plate now."
"Hahahaha, you didn't come earlier, you didn't come later, you actually took advantage of this time to attack, are these guys so smart?"
"."
Although the Red Flower Gang has recently been doing its best to prepare for the dwarves' counterattack, it has been promoting the publicity and training ordinary residents on the correct response measures when encountering enemy attacks.
However, when a real crisis comes, most people still only have an instinctive escape reaction in their minds.
There are even many people who originally practiced the belief that "as long as I run faster than others, I can survive." Once this idea spreads in panic, the scene will inevitably fall into extreme chaos.
Fortunately, the training that the Red Flower Gang spent a lot of time and energy on was not ineffective. As the subconscious escape reaction was gradually suppressed, the chaotic scene was finally under control for a short time.
On the frontal battlefield, almost at the same time as the explosion sounded, the alien creatures lurking under the water could no longer hold back and rushed out of the water one after another.
"Huso!"
Along with a weird shouting sound, a group of weird green-skinned monsters emerged from the water.
It turned out not to be dwarves, but a new alien race.
Frogmen!
As one of the most eye-catching features, the frogman has a broad and flat face and large, round eyes that glow with green light.
Their noses collapse to both sides, and their mouths are wide and powerful, filled with sharp teeth that can easily tear apart prey.
Looking down, the frogman's skin shows a healthy bronze-green color, covered with a layer of smooth scales, and has clear muscle lines, making it look strong and strong.
Especially the first batch of frogmen who broke out of the water all had long and powerful limbs and wide and thick webbed hands. Every time they kicked the water, they seemed to tear the water surface apart.
"When did the frogmen and dwarves work together?"
The members of the defense team who rushed out from the dock were stunned, fully wary of this creature that had been rumored in the world channel for a long time.
As early as in the deep sea, the frogman was an extremely difficult opponent.
They are good at using darkness as cover to land on human-inhabited islands quietly, or sneak onto ferries made of rafts.
Of course, although the frogmen do not directly kill people or set fires, their behavior is very troublesome.
These guys will steal a large amount of supplies from the warehouse every time, whether it is food or other necessities. Anyway, as long as it is something they like, they will take it away without mercy.
"No matter what alien race they are, if they dare to attack now, they are our enemies."
"Shoot them from a distance. These guys have dwarf weapons in their hands, so be careful."
"Their target is the fleet, Tianyuan's fleet. Are these guys impatient?"
"Spread out, don't be affected, the weapons provided by the dwarves support are very powerful!"
Frogmen have distinct advantages and disadvantages.
The advantage is that the reproduction speed is extremely fast. One male and one female frogman can often breed nearly a hundred frogmen within a few months. This efficient reproduction speed allows the frogman race to rapidly expand in number and quickly occupy a territory.
The disadvantage lies in its low combat ability, and it is one of the few alien races that does not know magic.
Moreover, the IQ of most people is equivalent to that of a 5-7 year old human child. The few smart people cannot reach the IQ level of human youth, and their developmental abilities can be described as pitifully weak.
Therefore, it is necessary to go to the territory of humans or other alien races to steal materials to meet the survival needs of the tribe.
However, after cooperating with the dwarves to install weapons, this disadvantage was obviously made up for.
Weapons made using special dwarven technology are not only strong and durable, but also contain powerful magical power.
The frogmen holding dwarf weapons only had to wave their weapons mindlessly, and magic attacks such as fireballs, water bombs, and wind knives flew out like raindrops, hitting the ship's outer shell and armor hard.
A crackling explosion sounded.
Due to the large area of high-strength special alloy used in the armor of the command ship, only some charred and dented marks were left after being attacked at this time.
But the frigate was not so lucky. Under the short-term concentrated magic bombardment, damage began to appear in many places.
The fire was splashing and the smoke was filling the air, and it seemed that the frogmen were about to gain the absolute upper hand.
But unfortunately, the aliens don't understand what real weapons of war are, nor do they understand why "weak" creatures like humans can stand at the top of the biological chain.
squeak..squeak.
The vibrating sound of the energy machine's low-frequency explosion sounded at the same time, like a deep war drum, urging the guerrilla boats from behind to rush forward one after another.
"Hit me hard!"
There are eight light and heavy machine guns on a guerrilla boat, which can cover the front fan-shaped angle when deployed.
As a cold command blasted through the headset, the firemen on the guerrilla boat suddenly became energetic, their eyes flashed with excitement, and they quickly and skillfully pulled out the machine gun shooting handle.
The whistling sound of bullets suddenly sounded, like a high-pitched war song, filling the soul of the river.
Yellow, orange, and heavy armor-piercing bullets poured out like a violent storm, causing splashing ripples.
Those frogmen who had been screaming arrogantly and strangely on the water just now were instantly trapped in the vortex of death.
Even if they had seen similar weapons before, they had no time to dodge now and could only watch helplessly as the bullets passed through their bodies like the scythe of death.
Pieces of flesh and blood flew in the air, falling heavily, causing splashes of water.
The surface of the water instantly became a mess, with frogmen's broken limbs and blood everywhere.
The heavy machine gun can shoot at a rate of 7,000 rounds per minute and can be overclocked to a maximum of 11,000 rounds. It can be called a ruthless killing machine on ordinary battlefields.
The current group of frogmen who only have dwarf weapons but no dwarf protective equipment are even more ruthless.
There was no need for the frigate to launch rockets to meet the enemy. In less than a minute, only a few frogmen were left on the water hiding behind their companions.
At this time, nearly a thousand defense team members who were approaching the ruins on the river bank finally reacted.
"I'll go."
"Su Shen's fleet is too powerful. I'm afraid these frogmen will never understand it until they die."
The river surface has been dyed blood red, and there are corpses of drifting frogmen everywhere.
They were just thinking about how to join the battle and repel the frogmen.
Now it seems that it should be completely useless.
But looking at the dwarven weapons mixed in the broken pieces, many people's eyes lit up.
Following the place where the flames dissipated, sampans that were not damaged just now were quickly pushed down.
Some of them held crossbows in their hands, and some held spears directly. They were very experienced in beating up drowned dogs.
"You dare to attack someone like this?"
Standing in the command room, Cui Lu frowned and glanced at the images transmitted from the surveillance cameras one after another.
Except for the first wave of frogmen who suddenly attacked and used dwarf weapons to cause some damage to the fleet.
The rest of the time is completely free.
After all, in the face of machine gun fire, many human frogmen actually dared to rush over and brandish dwarf weapons to launch a counterattack.
This point can be called an explosion whether it is placed in the human world or the alien world.
Could it be that the drama is real?
Cui Lu was filled with doubts and couldn't understand the significance of the appearance of these frogmen.
But soon, as more images returned in the surveillance screen, and the heat response in the radar chart changed.
Looking at the young man on the river bank who was guarded by the guards in the center, he could not suppress his astonishment.
Cui Lu's frown suddenly relaxed and he stood up with interest.
In the blink of an eye, a plan that the other party might execute flashed through his mind.
But the plan could not keep up with the changes. Perhaps the people who made the plan did not expect that the frogmen armed with dwarf weapons could not last even half a minute.
This is very embarrassing.
It's like the supporting actor in a fantasy novel who is used to promote the plot has just appeared, and is instantly killed by the protagonist with a thunderous force, which makes people unprepared.
And at this point, if you want to continue to promote the development of the plot, the original development must not be applied.
Those who make plans must find ways to correct these errors in a very short period of time.
"Hey, let me see, what would you do?"
He stared at the changes in the young man's expression with piercing eyes, from the initial shock to the frown, and then to the frown at the end.
Cui Lu suddenly wanted to laugh, and even understood what Su Deben had felt before.
This feeling of being able to completely crush the opponent in terms of strategy and IQ
I have to say, it’s really fascinating!
The explosion on the river bank seemed huge, but in fact it did not cause much harm.
Blowing up river banks and diverting water into the territory are obviously not something some dwarf bombs can do.
In other words, from beginning to end, blowing up the river bank is not the mission of these bombs.
Their existence is more like a starting gun. When fired, a grand stage play will begin.
"The damage statistics have been completed. Except for two frigates that were damaged by more than 50% and need to be docked immediately for repairs, the damage rates of the other frigates are all below 30%, which is enough to support us after we return to the territory.
Whole ship overhaul.”
"In terms of casualties, two people were slightly injured and needed about half a month to recuperate. The reason was that when the endgame was being closed, the inferior dwarf weapons self-destructed after being soaked in water for too long. Although most of the shock wave was absorbed by the river, there were sporadic splashes.
It still caused damage."
"We have organized manpower to rescue survivors on the river when the attack just broke out. But the results are not optimistic. Many people chose to dive in panic at the first time, and were carried downstream. Now the rescue is very difficult.
."
The sense of information gap was vividly reflected in this encounter.
Since the enemy was discovered lurking under the water in advance, the battle did not cause any substantial damage to the fleet.
Including all cargo ships carrying cargo, there was no damage at all.
As for the survivors who had approached earlier, they could have easily survived.
It's a pity that many people's psychological quality is really poor.
It was very much like a small fire had just broken out, and the fire brigade was still on the way, but someone couldn't stand the pressure and chose to jump off the building.
In the end, the fire was easily extinguished, but the person who jumped from the building broke his bones.
"Just try your best to search and rescue, and arrange for our medical team to intervene as soon as possible."
After all, reality is not a game. Cui Lu never thought that he could win a zero-cost war, so he has no psychological burden now. He just urges the medical team accompanying the fleet as much as possible to do a good job in the aftermath of this battle.
As for the leader of the Red Flower Gang, the lord ‘Ji Wuming’ whose name is as crazy as the hero of the novel.
There wasn't too many complaints about this. They also arranged for manpower to clean the battlefield and used the territory's public funds to treat the injured.
"Captain Cui, I'm very sorry for this raid. This may be because I notified the territory of my return home in advance, but please rest assured. We have internally identified the spy who passed the news and are in the process of arresting him.
Capture action!"
Liu Zhi, with a charred and bald head, boarded the central command ship and came to confess with an uneasy look on his face.
When he was about to get off the boat, a bomb exploded on the river bank.
Fortunately, this guy did have some luck, and his hair was only burned by the violent fire.
Of the two unlucky guys who were accompanying him, one had his forearm broken by the explosion, and the other was thrown away and suffered a concussion.
"Aliens are the common enemy of mankind, and their raids are also aimed at our Tianyuan. Whether you deliver the message or not has nothing to do with it."
Cui Lu smiled kindly, stepped forward and patted Liu Zhi on the shoulder.
"In other words, we have to thank you. After all, you also have a share of the credit for this victory at Honghua Port!"
