712 Where are they?

Anyone who has witnessed the carpet bombing of Eiland Hill will almost always remain in awe of the war.

Blue Star human civilization's persistent pursuit of destruction, both in terms of various senses and in terms of actual destruction effects, has reached a very extreme level.

Even if people don't master some of the self-destruction technologies they yearn for in time, they will use countless movies to narrate their fantasies and go further and further down the road of destruction.

From the most pragmatic orbital weapons such as the so-called Rod of God, to laser cannons and electromagnetic cannons, to the terrifying energy beam weapons in Star Wars that can destroy a planet at once, and finally to fantasy technologies such as water droplet two-way foil.

Anyway, as long as imagination exists, part of it will be used in the "development" of brain circuits for future weapons.

It seems that if any weapon imagined by a science fiction god is officially used in the human army, he will gain the aura of a prophet and become the greatest prophet in human history.

But this road is getting narrower now. After all, earlier humans only had to predict steam engines, trains, cars, airplanes, rocket boots and the like. Today, if you look at the fantasy paintings of the 1930s, most of them have already been predicted.

accomplish.

But now it is extremely difficult to "invent" a weapon that others have not imagined. It is like if you want to boast about something that others have not boasted about, you will find that it is increasingly difficult to do so.

When countless bombs not only destroyed the city's defensive magic circle system, but also turned most of the buildings in the entire city into ruins, what was left was endless disasters that naturally spread.

A city with a population of hundreds of thousands, or even millions, is not just a large group of people crowded together.

No matter how old a city is, it still needs a lot of infrastructure to support such a huge population.

If these infrastructures are destroyed, then the gathered population, whether they are humans or demons, whether they are noble elves, dragons or filthy orcs, will face a very embarrassing situation.

Don't underestimate this embarrassment. When the embarrassment is magnified to the scale of a city, it will be a real disaster.

The paralysis of the water supply and drainage system, the disorder of material supply, and the self-defensive hoarding behavior of panicked people are just one link that collapses, and the accumulated tsunami is enough to make the entire city irreversible.

This is also the direct reason why in modern times, large cities have become more fragile and easier to be captured. The cost of defending a city is too high, and even rational people choose to give up. It is not that the rulers themselves are unwilling to persist, but that most people will

Choose to give up.

Similarly, this is why many heroic cities are remembered by people: the indomitable London, the steel-hard Stalingrad, the Leningrad that faced everything calmly...

It's a pity that no matter how you look at it, the Devil's City does not have the conditions to become a hero city. Their organizational capabilities are certainly not as good as those of the Bolsheviks, and their technical level does not allow them to sustain such huge losses.

When the surviving demons staggered out of the corner, they found that the city they were in had changed beyond recognition.

The courtyard they were familiar with has disappeared, the courtyard walls have collapsed and rubble is strewn all over the ground, the tall chimney in the distance has collapsed, and choking smoke is rising everywhere.

The fire seemed to be out of control, and no one was paying attention to the constantly beating flames. The devil's combat troops were working hard to maintain discipline near the city. In fact, their defensive positions were now beyond recognition.

Some of the city walls that were tens of meters high were hit by bombs and have collapsed. The defensive runes on the walls played a certain role. The collapsed areas were not serious, but they were still difficult to clean up.

Thousands of demonic combat troops died in the battle, and the city lord who manages this city is currently struggling to restore the magical defense barrier and deploy his troops to protect those important factories.

In the factory building, the puppets responsible for production and the demon workers who managed these puppets were lying staggering in the collapsed factory building. The huge steel boilers and machinery had also stopped operating.

The magic energy liquid that powers these machines is constantly burning and exploding, and the living people are trying hard to put out the raging flames in front of them with the tools in their hands.

Nearly 200 tons of aerial bombs are enough to cause enough trouble for a city. What's more, this devil city itself has already encountered a lot of troubles.

About two months ago, they heard about the counterattack on the Magic Continent. A large number of main troops were transferred away, and the number of remaining soldiers was obviously insufficient.

A few days ago, some high-level demons who retreated from the front line reported the situation of being attacked by human troops. However, according to the past speed of advancement, humans should be at least dozens of days away from here, right?

But those terrifying strange birds have now flown here, flying above their heads, dropping those terrifying and terrifying bombs...

No matter what, it's finished here. Many of the factories and production machinery that were finally built to produce steel plates were damaged.

Repairing these machines will definitely take a lot of time, but the most important question now is, how to protect the remaining machines?

The Demon Bat Troops and Demon Dragon Troops have been mobilized and left, and now only a few high-level demons are left who can fly into the sky with their flesh wings.

But these demons had just taken off to fight, but they were flying too low to threaten the high-flying B-17 bombers.

The result of barely getting close was that the self-defense air cannons, like raindrops, beat several high-level demons to shame. Although they did not die, they did not play any air defense role.

To the devil, this city is now useless. The old, weak, sick and disabled are just a burden of food. The factories are no longer able to resume production, and even the basic operations of the city can no longer be maintained.

"Immediately pass the news to the great source of magic..." The leader of the demon general looked at the burning and collapsing city in front of him with a pale face, and ordered his men: "Those damn aliens from the magic continent... have already burned the flames of war to

Here it is!”

"Yes! Sir." The subordinate bowed slightly, and then asked: "But Sir, where are our reinforcements? Where are they?"
