Weihai Fortress was shrouded in countless dazzling lights.
Densely packed battleships surrounded it like locusts, and the battleships spewed light and raindrops on it. Weihai Fortress counterattacked not to be outdone, with thick beams of light, swarms of sword rays, and light clusters like raindrops, attacking crazily.
To the dense warships.
From time to time, battleships exploded, and the incandescent light that bloomed during the explosion illuminated the sea of energy like the sun. When the light dimmed slightly, orange-red fireballs, like blooming flowers, wrapped around the wreckage of the battleship.
The soldiers who were on fire jumped out of the flames with shrill screams and fell into the sea of energy.
The fighting was extremely fierce.
There was no movement on Goucheng Wendao's face. He stared at the battlefield expressionlessly.
The surrounding generals all clenched their fists, and their faces turned pale. A critical battle like this is the most cruel. There is no room for maneuver, no room for strategy, and every inch of space can only be fought with blood and will.
No one underestimates this battle, not to mention that the opponent is Xie Yuan, who became famous in the first battle and is famous for his defense. But no one objects to Lord Goucheng Wendao's decision. For Guangmingzhou, every bit of time is extremely precious, so precious
They didn't hesitate to pay for it with their blood.
The Weihai Fortress is an extremely hard bone. It is the strongest point in the opponent's defense line and a nightmare for all attackers. However, once the Weihai Fortress is breached, the entire defense line will collapse instantly. They can drive straight in and take Shangzhou directly.
.
From the beginning of the preparation, he did not consider defense at all. All preparations were made for the attack. As for the casualties, he did not care at all, and he knew that the higher-ups would not care either.
As long as we can capture Shangzhou as quickly as possible, nothing will be a problem.
At this time when time is more important than anything else, no matter what you use to exchange for time, it is a good deal.
Starting from the preparations before departure, all his plans revolved around this point. In the eyes of many people, Goucheng Wen Dao was impulsive and crazy, but few people knew the extent of Gou Cheng Wen Dao's pre-war preparations.
How full.
He carefully studied all possible attack routes and tried Shangzhou's possible defense and counterattack methods, and finally got a set of pre-war plans involving 62 scenarios.
So far, the development of the war has not exceeded his pre-war plan.
He is not complacent, nor is he blindly confident because of this. No matter how careful the pre-war plan is, it is impossible to completely predict the ever-changing changes on the battlefield. Once he steps on the battlefield, he will leave the battle to his crazy fighting instinct.
But this time, his preparations were not in vain.
In the plan of the deduction, Weihai Fortress appeared more than once. There are only a handful of fortresses in the southern region, and Weihai Fortress's strategic location is extremely important. Shangzhou's combat effectiveness is at a disadvantage, so it is normal to take advantage of the fortress defense.
Guangmingzhou has been penetrating the Southern Territory for many years, secretly collecting intelligence from all parties, and the strategically important Weihai Fortress is naturally the top priority.
"It would be great if it were the Weihai Fortress from before." The adjutant said with emotion.
The surrounding generals nodded. Before Xie Yu'an took over, the defense of Weihai Fortress was lax, like an arsenal filled with expensive weapons. The intelligence personnel's report at the time once concluded that even a group of pirates could easily take over.
Get off this luxurious fortress.
But all this changed after Xie Yuan's inspection.
After Guangmingzhou lost several intelligence officers, they learned about Xie Yuan's re-deployment of defenses. In the past, everyone didn't take it seriously. No one took an unknown person like Xie Yuan to heart.
But after they fought against Xie Yu'an, the fortress renovation project that didn't attract much attention immediately made everyone worried.
In the hands of people who are just waiting to die, the Weihai Fortress is just a large golden warehouse, but in the hands of a famous general, a weapons depot with money and food is enough to build a terrifying fortress.
Xie Yuan, who became famous in the First World War, attracted the attention of the Guangmingzhou Intelligence Department, and every bit of information about him was quickly unearthed. Even his homework in the academy was dug out of the old papers and turned into research materials.
When several operational defense plans were sent to the frontline staff, even a guy like Goucheng Wen Dao, who was as emotive as he was, his cheeks twitched twice.
Only then did everyone understand what level of hedgehog the Weihai Fortress in front of them was.
Goucheng heard the sword and nodded: "The reputation is well-deserved."
The surrounding generals looked at each other in astonishment. They had been following your Excellency for a long time and knew that Your Excellency was always stingy in praising the enemy. It was really rare for them to be praised by Your Excellency.
After a while, the adjutant said with surprise: "Sir! The siege fleet is in position!"
"Start the attack." Gou Chengwendao said calmly, and he couldn't help but feel slightly relieved. Weihai Fortress was like a hedgehog with a turtle shell, giving people nowhere to start.
"yes!"
The surrounding generals all showed excited expressions, as if they were waiting for a good show. This siege fleet was as slow as a tortoise, but fortunately it finally arrived. The tentative attack just now made everyone understand that the bones of Weihai Fortress were strong.
How hard.
Goucheng Wen Dao's determination to fight was naturally not something that could be deterred by just a few defense plans. There was no doubt about Xie Yuan's level, but he also had no cards in his hand.
The trump card in Gouchengwen Dao's hand was the siege ship he carried with the army.
In the pre-war deduction, Weihai Fortress caused them huge trouble. How to pull out this nail was a problem he had to face. He was cruel and decided to form a special force to deal with Weihai Fortress.
An army of siege ships.
This siege ship army, composed of twenty-two large siege ships and seventy medium-sized siege ships, can be called the strongest siege force in history. They are mighty, slow, and weak siege ships.
Once attacked, it would be a disaster. Goucheng Wendao personally escorted them, even if it slowed down their progress.
Now, it's time to reveal this trump card.
An astonishingly large fleet slowly sailed into the battlefield.
The large siege ships in Guangming Continent are not comparable to the small siege ships that attack Forest Sword Fort. These large siege ships, which are huge like floating islands, are a nightmare for almost all fortresses.
Their speed is slow and their protection is weak, but their fierce firepower and long range dwarf all warships.
Twenty-two big guys are like twenty-two giant beasts, with their mouths wide open. No fortress can withstand the siege of these twenty-two giant beasts.
When these twenty-two large siege ships slowly sailed into the battlefield, the huge war suddenly became quiet.
Since ancient times, the battle for offense and defense has never stopped.
The defensive advantages of the fortress always make it difficult for the army to advance. But the fortress also has its natural enemy, that is, the ship siege city. This kind of war weapon is specially designed to deal with defensive fortifications. They have super firepower and can reach over a long distance.
range.
No matter how hard the turtle shell is, they can break it with a hammer.
In this way, siege ships are weapons of war against fortresses, and large siege ships are veritable war beasts, a nightmare for all fortresses. Even fortification experts like Xie Yuan, when they see these war beasts,
His face couldn't help but change drastically.
The faith I held firm was shaken for the first time.
The soldiers around him were all stunned and their faces were pale.
Are you going to lose?
Xie Yuan stared blankly at these extremely slow war beasts, his face ashen. No fortress could survive the attack of twenty-two large siege ships unscathed.
Large siege ships are war behemoths, and they are also gold-swallowing behemoths. The price of each ship is astronomical. They are undoubtedly the most expensive combat units. Guangmingzhou has produced twenty-two ships at once, and its family has strong financial resources.
, leaving people speechless.
It's really disappointing.
Is my dream of becoming a golden military commander coming to an end?
Really, I am really too greedy. At this point, why don't you just give in?
Yes, I am not willing to give in.
This journey has not been easy. It has not been easy to get here. It has not been easy for the Swift Corps to reach the level it is today. It has not been easy.
Dreams that were once out of reach appear again and again in the dreams of middle-aged people.
The energy that had long been worn away jumped out of the horizon like the sun, passing over his body that was sluggish from the wasted years. The burning pain made him feel alive.
The blood that had cooled down a long time ago began to warm again, began to boil with desire, and began to burn with longing, just like that when he was a young man.
Yes, it happened unconsciously.
A bitter smile appeared on Xie Yuan's lips, and he raised his head again. The light in his eyes was like sunshine piercing the haze.
It's worth dying like this.
It's not like lying dying in a hospital bed waiting for death to come.
It’s not like holding your arms and crying in a dark corner, regretting that you never came.
Whose dream will definitely come true?
My war has never stopped.
"Ready to fight."
The warm voice sounded in every corner of Weihai Fortress, and the lost soldiers raised their heads in confusion.
"Please prepare to fight."
The familiar voice of the adults gradually brought them back to their senses.
"The next attack will be very violent, so everyone must be mentally prepared. However, we do not have no chance. In six hours, as long as we persist for six hours, we will have a chance to win."
The adult's voice was as calm as ever, as if he was describing an ordinary thing.
But, is there still a chance?
Many people showed doubts. In the face of such absolute strength, why would adults say there is still a chance?
"Six hours, no matter what, please help me stick to it for six hours."
Xie Yu'an's voice was not impassioned, only sincere, and one could not help but think of that gentle figure, the figure who accompanied them crawling and rolling in the mud, the figure who was not good at talking, but still smiled no matter what.
The figure that led them to where they are today.
Just like the rigor of their commanders, most of the soldiers of the Swift Corps were taciturn. They did not discuss or speak. They just quietly returned to their fighting positions and silently began to prepare for the next battle.
