One sky battleship opened fire, causing the entire Gushan Fortress to collapse. Three sky battleships opened fire, turning the Malen River defense line into a sea of explosions.
In the sky, a huge demonic castle was hit by a missile, disintegrating and falling while billowing smoke.
When this huge castle hit the open space behind the Mullen River defense line, the huge energy generated by the fall kicked up dust, covering the nearby Puppet Imperial Army position.
Countless artillery shells exploded on this fragile defense line, and the entire defense line was silent, without even a decent counterattack.
The devil's floating castle was unable to even parry under the attack of the sky battleship, and was instantly destroyed.
The fortress defense, which was originally difficult to break through, was as fragile as a piece of paper at this moment. The devil's floating castle, which had raised a magic defense barrier, was hit by a large number of shells and missiles before it could even sustain a round of attacks.
, shattered unwillingly in the sky.
The rocks under these castles began to crumble, falling directly onto the Mullen River defense line. The thick walls turned into huge ammunition, falling into our own defense line, throwing up patches of thick smoke and dust.
The demons gathered under the floating castle, as well as the soldiers of the puppet empire, were now shrouded in falling rubble, with little chance of survival.
Three sky battleships lined up in a straight line. One battleship aimed at a demon castle as a target, and destroyed these floating castles in the air with just a salvo of missiles.
The demons have no way to save the puppet empire this time. They have too much time to take care of themselves, or in other words, they are the target of attack and the focus of hunting.
"Let the remaining floating fortresses retreat! If we continue to fight like this, our entire army will be annihilated here!" On the Malen River position, a demon general looked at the third demon castle that fell in the distance, his tone full of emotion.
He said dejectedly.
"But if we abandon this line of defense, there will be no more dangerous terrain behind us!" his deputy reminded.
"Then what can I do? Die here for the puppet empire? The order I got is to help the puppet empire stabilize its position, not to fight to the last soldier for them!" The demon general snorted coldly and continued to insist.
own thoughts.
He has no good way to fight against such a powerful human being. There is no difference between staying here and waiting for death. Retreat seems to be their only way.
"Okay! If you have a way to deal with His Highness Salux! Then I have no objection!" His deputy said, shirk responsibility.
"Retreat! Order the troops to retreat immediately! Retreat to the area where Bourquelin is located! This line of defense is over!" The general had no intention of continuing to argue with the opponent and continued to lead.
Yes, as long as you are not blind, you can see that this line of defense is completely finished. There are 40,000 demon troops, at least 100,000 puppets, and tens of thousands of human soldiers in the defense line. It is estimated that not even a third of them will be left.
The remaining demonic floating castles fled in panic, but their movement speed was obviously unable to match the pursuit speed of the floating battleships.
As a result, three more castles crashed, hitting the dark ridges where the wildfires had not been completely extinguished, turning into irregular pieces of debris, leaving only sections of cracked walls and collapsed buildings.
things.
The desperate Demon Castle was also fighting back. They used all the magic cannons on the castle to attack Ailanthir's floating battleship. However, because the power of the artillery was too weak, even the defensive barrier of the sky battleship was not penetrated.
To be more precise, these attacks did not cause even the slightest trouble to Elanthir's sky fleet. To defend against this level of bombardment, the fleet's magical defense barrier could really be said to be more than enough.
Waggron sat in his seat, watching the enemy's floating castles being shot down one after another, and the expression on his face finally showed a bit of contempt.
He has always insisted on paying attention to his opponent, and even when the opponent has shown signs of defeat, he still attacks with all his strength. The lion fights the rabbit with all his strength. Waggron firmly believes that only after the enemy is eliminated can he truly win.
But now, when he saw the demon troops running wildly, he really felt that there was no need to be cautious anymore.
The opponent did not use that terrifying defensive magic until the end. It seemed that only floating city-level targets could use that magic. This theory had been speculated before, but now it was just confirmed from the side.
"Keep firing! Destroy all the remaining demon floating castles! Then the fleet will turn around and return to the Malen River defense line! Launch a suppressive attack from the air! Cover the troops crossing the river!" Waggron stared at the big screen showing the battle situation.
He opened his mouth and ordered.
"Report! Strike report sent from the Air Force! The bomber force has begun to suppress all targets on the Mullen River defense line... They suggested that the fleet does not need to return and just continue to move forward. The task of covering the ground forces is left to them...
"A staff officer handed the cable to Wageron and reported the report with his chin held high.
Wageron nodded and continued to order: "Then order the ground troops to cross the river! The armed helicopter troops will take off to cover the ground troops' advance!"
"Yes!" The staff officer stood at attention and saluted, then turned and left the command bridge where Wageron was located.
At this moment, the last demonic floating castle in the distance also started to emit thick smoke amidst the explosion.
It fell little by little, with thick smoke still rolling from the mountain fire at its feet. The current scene in the northeastern part of the puppet empire was simply hell.
On the ground, the demonic troops were no longer in the mood to continue fighting. They watched the floating castle in the sky being chased down like sheep, and they could only retreat.
The demon general wearing a long sword stared at the last crashed floating castle, and did not dare to use his flesh wings to fly. He could only let his guards follow him, and took some demon troops around him to escape under the cover of thick smoke.
.
As soon as he ran away, the remaining troops of the Puppet Empire became even more isolated and helpless. The entire defense line was in chaos. Within half an hour after the battle broke out, the Puppet Empire lost effective command of the troops stationed in the position.
The scene was in chaos. Under the electromagnetic interference of Elanthir, the commanders of the puppet empire were unable to even issue their own orders and mobilize their troops.
What’s even more interesting is that, apart from seeing the floating warships crossing the Malen River defense line, they didn’t even know where the attack force of Ailan Hill launched the attack from, and they were already defeated...
