"Boom!" On the road where the giant horse cavalry was charging, an explosion sounded. The surrounding knights fell on their backs. The comrades behind them did not bother to stop advancing or take a detour, and stepped on these unlucky guys who fell to the ground.
passed.
"Boom!" Before these knights could think too much, more explosions appeared around them. Every step forward seemed to come at a huge price. One after another, the knights fell off their horses and were trampled into the dirt by their companions.
inside.
At the beginning, everyone thought that these explosions were shelling from the mortals of Elanshir. However, as the explosions became more and more precise, everyone realized that what was attacking them was not the shells coming from above their heads.
But it comes from the soil beneath their feet.
In addition to the destroyed and incomplete barbed wire fences, and in addition to the small group of Airan Hill Grenadiers who were left to survive, there were other things in the soil attacking them. These weapons exploded in the ground,
The rocks and pieces of iron thrown up are even more lethal...
However, what can they do if they realize this? They have no time to stop and check the ground under their feet. They can only keep moving forward until they get out of this dead area.
What is regrettable is that the soldiers of Airan Hill will not give up this opportunity to retaliate against vengeance and injustice. They fire desperately behind the minefield, just like the infantrymen of various countries in World War I on earth.
That's what they did.
They used machine guns to slaughter the enemies who tried to cross the death zone, making the other party pay ten or even a hundred times the price. When the giant horse cavalry broke through the minefield defenses, crossed the tattered barbed wire fences, and rushed in front of the Airan Hill soldiers.
By that time, these brave grenadiers had exhausted their ammunition and were looking at these enemies of the Holy Demon Empire with mocking eyes.
"Come on, bastards! We're out of bullets! It's your turn now!" A bearded Airanhill soldier held a bayonet and shouted to the knights on the giant horse who were surrounding them: "I'm not afraid of you!"
"Hoo!" A giant horse cavalry chanted the fireball technique, ending the life of this brave mortal with flames. They passed by the burning corpse and continued to launch a fierce attack on the second line of defense of Elanthir.
While they were storming the defense line of Eiland Hill, in the sky, a fleet of aircraft with golden eagles on their wings were searching for their targets above the clouds. They bypassed the battlefield of fierce fighting and searched for the targets they were looking for.
.
"Have you found the target? Confirm, have you found the target?" On the radio, a voice urged anxiously. Above the sky, a huge fleet of aircraft was entering the battlefield.
The pilot overlooking the ground pressed the communicator and answered the question from the ground command center: "Okay, I saw the target! It has been confirmed! The target has been found!"
"Repeat confirmation! It is indeed the target, right?" In the ground command headquarters, the officer responsible for commanding this attack mission confirmed again.
"Yes, as long as you are not blind, you can easily find those fools!" Looking at the huge magic circles on the ground, the pilot of the plane replied helplessly.
A dense crowd of magicians gathered around the magic circle that was filled with dragon's blood and outlined on the open ground. It was as eye-catching as a huge bull's-eye painted on the ground, familiar to all attack aircraft pilots
.
They have been practicing attacking such a target: diving, and then throwing the bombs hanging under their wings onto the practice target painted on the ground. However, now the target is replaced by the same round magic circle, and it is slightly
It shines with light blue light, as eye-catching as a torch.
"Decrease altitude! Let them shut up forever!" In the slightly bumpy plane, the pilot glanced at his instrument panel and loudly ordered the friendly aircraft following him.
The IL-2 attack planes arranged in a dense attack formation began to swoop down from the clouds one after another. On the bombs mounted under the wings, the warning message "Handle with Care" loomed in the wisps of white clouds.
"Free attack! Don't let any of these bastards go! They are attacking our compatriots! Fire! Fire!" The commander's voice sounded on the radio, and Ilan Raymond pointed his bombsight at the ground.
A huge magic circle swooped over quickly.
His plane bumped slightly in the airflow, which was a normal thing for him. For the past month, he had been conducting such dive attacks every day without interruption.
"Buzz!" A magician who was chanting magic looked up and saw a small black dot in the sky that was getting closer and closer. He frowned to see what the black dot was, and then he saw that
The black spots continued to grow larger, and eventually the wings extended.
Immediately afterwards, before he could make any response, the small black dot extending out of the wings revealed a more ferocious appearance. Under the sun, a large cannon was hung under the wings of the Il-2 attack aircraft.
The bomb looks majestic.
"That's not one of ours!" He subconsciously wanted to remind the people around him to take cover, but it was too late. The huge bomb broke away from the wing of the Il-2 attack plane piloted by Ilan Raymond, and then continued along the path.
Follow the swooping path of the aircraft and rush towards your target.
Dive bombing itself has a very strong attack accuracy, and the Il-2 attack aircraft's ground attack performance is the best among attack aircraft, so these bombs falling from the sky are very accurate, just like precision guidance.
The ground was filled with legions of mages, and magic circles that were about the size of a bull's-eye were outlined. There were carts carrying dragon corpses and huge monsters dragging these carts everywhere. They were perfect targets for air force bombing.
.
Therefore, Ilan Raymond felt extremely relaxed. He flew his plane and strafed the ground with a 20mm cannon, leaving two bloody roads filled with dust among the crowd of magicians.
Just like a fence rolling over the land, the group of magicians only had time to look up at the sky before they were shattered to pieces by the cannonballs fired at them. The aircraft cannons on the Il-2 attack aircraft hitting the human body are quite cruel, even if there are
Magical defenses cannot stop this ammunition from constantly running amok through the crowd.
The bomb he threw exploded at the edge of the crowd, destroying the magic circle and knocking down a group of magicians. The Magic Legion of the Holy Demon Empire, which never thought that it would be attacked by a mortal air force, paid a heavy price for underestimating its enemy.
cost.
"Bring back the Dragon Knight! Otherwise we will all be doomed!" Seeing his magicians being destroyed, the leader of the magicians shouted angrily. Unfortunately, the Dragon Knight is currently fighting with the me-109 fighter jet.
Together, I can't get away for a moment.
Or to be more pessimistic, it seems to be unknown whether these dragon knights can retreat back. Although Airan Hill's air force fighter force has lost more than 30 fighter jets, the dragon knight legion of the Holy Demon Empire has obviously suffered a loss.
of more.
About 150 dragon knights were shot down, which was almost half of the dragon knights who participated in the attack. The dragon knight troops commanded by the three great knight captains were defeated and were now fighting their own enemies with no way to protect themselves.
"Goodbye!" muttering in a low voice, Ilan Raymond pulled the trigger of firing. The Il-2 attack plane circled in the air and fired at the ground again. The tracer bullets fired directly rushed into the crowd.
Two straight lines of blood were left in the mage's array.
On the ground, the panicked mages raised their hands and released various magics into the sky. Their fireballs and lightning arrows really caused trouble for the attack aircraft troops. They dropped bombs with great accuracy while avoiding these attacks.
There is no guarantee at all.
The losses on both sides were rising rapidly. An Il-2 attack plane lost control and crashed into the crowd of magicians. The huge wing crashed into a sea of blood among the crowd, leaving the surrounding people with blood.
The urge to vomit.
In fact, the magician troops of the Holy Demon Empire can fire on targets in the sky. In fact, they do need to defend against dragon knights from other magic empires. However, they have never been prepared to deal with the air force of the Mortal Empire, so for a while they were somewhat
Just not prepared enough.
They quickly organized an effective defense, turning this one-sided massacre into a dangerous war of attrition: attack aircraft poured ammunition into the ground, while mages shot down the swooping enemies.
When Ilan Raymond threw away all his bombs and left the battlefield with fruitful results, behind him, on the position of the magician troops of the Holy Demon Empire, only billowing smoke could be seen.
Both the Holy Demon Empire and Airan Hill underestimated the strength of the other party. In just one morning of fighting, the losses suffered by both sides left their respective commanders stunned.
"General Rest has issued an order to retreat. The first and second lines of defense have all been abandoned..." A communications officer stood in front of the commander of the 2nd Division, stood at attention and saluted and said: "The artillery units have begun to retreat.
Already."
"Remember today's shame, gentlemen." The commander of the 2nd Division suppressed his voice and said uncomfortably: "We became the first unit in the entire Eiland Hill to be beaten by the enemy to retreat..."
"Including the strength of the garrison, we lost almost 20,000 people in one morning... Is this the true strength of the Magic Empire? It is really very strong." He looked at the still burning position in the distance and smiled bitterly.
Acknowledge the greatness of your opponent.
On the other side of the burning land, still on the high ground, the commander of the Holy Demon Empire listened to the damage report with a livid face, and also bitterly admitted the strength of his opponent: "It's really worthy of admiration.
The opponent... we thought we were ready for war, but now it seems we still underestimated the enemy."
