74 Battle of Maricha

"Bang! Bang!" Facing the charging dragon, a 30mm caliber high-level and flat dual-purpose cannon on an anti-aircraft gun position opened fire. The slender barrel spit out tongues of flame, causing the shells to rush toward its target quickly.

The diving dragon sensed danger. It wanted to dodge the thing that was hitting it, but found that there seemed to be more than one thing. In just a moment, it felt that it had been hit by a huge impact.

"Roar!" This ancient and powerful creature screamed, and then began to descend rapidly. Still dozens of meters away from the city wall, the giant beast hit the ground, splashing a cloud of dust.

.

"Are you kidding me?" Ildo, who had already sped up and swooped down, widened his eyes to see his men being shot down. The battle had just begun, so why was a giant dragon shot down?

In the previous battle, he also checked the dragon's wounds. The opponent's weapons could break the dragon's scales, which was not easy. Although the dragon looked bloody, it did not receive any fatal injuries. After all,

, these ancient creatures have amazingly powerful defenses and are not so easy to kill.

The injured dragon just happened to be hit in the eye by a bullet, and then fell from a high altitude. Therefore, Ildo is still very confident in the dragon's defense. He feels that his troops can still

Being on his own is the theoretical basis for his attack.

But now, these mortals actually have a way to kill the giant dragon so quickly. Doesn't that mean that the Dragon Knight, a unit that has always crushed mortals, has lost its advantage from this moment on?

You know, the Dragon Knight has been a very powerful super unit from the moment it was born: they can maneuver quickly, have unparalleled ability to avoid battles, can also attack from a long distance, and have terrible destructive power on cities and armies.

.

When facing such a force, mortals lack effective means of response. Assemble the troops to prepare a large number of heavy weapons, which can easily be bypassed by the dragon knights to attack the city head-on. If the army is not assembled to fight, the dragon knights can take advantage of their speed to attack the city.

Break.

Regrettably, this situation seems to have been broken now. The opponent actually has a powerful weapon that can attack in the air, something more powerful than a single-shot ballista! After all, although ballistas are also very dangerous, they can

The rate of fire of that thing is very slow, so aiming becomes the biggest problem.

It is impossible to fire continuously. Each time, the shooter needs to find the lead and then fire. This hit accuracy is very touching. As long as one hit is missed, the dragon has time to attack. This is why mortals face the dragon.

, then the root cause of passivity.

Now, what kind of damn weapons are mounted on these mortal city walls that can kill a giant dragon with one attack? Ildor, who was full of questions, was just stunned and rushed to a distance not far from the city wall.

Far away.

"Thud! Thud!" The Maxim heavy machine gun covering the anti-aircraft gun opened fire. The Maxim heavy machine gun mounted on a tripod also had a very high elevation angle. When facing the giant dragon, the continuous combat capability of this weapon was demonstrated.

of vividly.

A row of dense bullets collided with a giant dragon that was ready to attack. The dense bullets shattered the scales on the dragon's abdomen like a storm. In pain, the giant dragon began to flap its wings and climb up, and was forced to give up the attack.

opportunity.

"Thud! Thud!" Next to the heavy machine gun that kept spitting out tongues of flame, the commander raised his head and held a telescope, looking at the ferocious-looking enemies, and loudly ordered: "Keep firing! Don't let those damn guys get close to the city wall!"

"

"Bah!" On the city wall, hundreds of Ailan Hill grenadiers were holding their rifles and firing desperately at the terrifying dragons in the sky. They knew that this was the only way they could survive.

the only hope.

"Hoo!" A giant dragon finally found a fire gap, roared down from high altitude, and sprayed a huge ball of flames at the Ailan Hill Grenadiers on the city wall. In an instant, this section of the city wall was burned.

Covered in flames, the soldiers above were also submerged in a sea of ​​fire.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!" The anti-aircraft gun position at the other end opened fire, and the huge shells flew into the sky, shattering the armor on the giant dragon and burrowing into the dragon's flesh. Its remaining power remained undiminished.

It tore the dragon's muscles to pieces, mashed the dragon's internal organs, and penetrated the dragon's entire body.

The giant dragon that was still spitting flames on the city wall suddenly lost its power. Its two fleshy wings struggled feebly in the sky, and its entire body fell from the sky and hit the city head that was still burning with raging fire.

Just one dragon's breath turned a platoon on top of the city and dozens of soldiers into ashes. Such an attack made all the soldiers on top of the city open fire even more crazily. They all had only one thought in their hearts: they can't let these

Damn the guy gets any chance to breathe fire.

Bourjos, who was standing by the window, saw the flames falling from the sky. It was the first time that he saw such a terrible attack, which actually happened before his eyes. He had only seen similar descriptions in books before, and his words were full of words.

The taste of despair and pathos.

Now that he has seen this kind of irresistible attack with his own eyes, Bourjos finally understands where the despair deep in his bones comes from. After facing such an impossible opponent countless times, the humbleness of mortals has become

It's a matter of course.

Just when he prayed that his troops would not give the other side any chance, another ball of flames poured down and hit the city wall, leaving behind a thick smoke and a wall of endless fire.

"Damn it! Fire! Shoot those bastards down!" Behind him, an officer clenched his fists, as if he wanted to use his thoughts to encourage the soldiers on the wall not to retreat and to continue fighting.

"We are not needed here! Follow me!" Feeling that he should do something, and pressing the sword at his waist, Bourjos finally made up his mind, turned around and prepared to walk out of his command post.

His adjutant blocked the door and stopped his chief officer: "You won't be able to do anything by going over there, so you should stay here and command the overall situation!"

"Get out of the way! I must let my soldiers see me! I want to stand with them!" Bourjos pushed his men away with his hands, walked out of the room and walked down the long stairs. Everyone around him

The officers all walked out of the headquarters and followed their commanders to prepare to board the distant city in the distance.

There, the anti-aircraft guns raised their barrels and were defending the city behind them. However, a giant dragon still broke through the large net of firepower and flew over the city. It passed by the side of the city and flew to

On the other side of the city, a long straight line of flames was left wherever it passed, and all the houses in its path were completely destroyed.

However, it did not remain arrogant for too long, because on the other side of the city, the anti-aircraft guns that had been stationed there immediately opened fire, using a fire net to welcome the giant dragon that crossed the city. After struggling for only a few seconds, the giant dragon

It crashed into the city, destroyed a bunch of houses, and turned into a corpse.

"If we continue fighting like this... we may lose..." Seeing that the opponent's fire network has killed 5 dragons, Ildo finally realized the seriousness of the problem. Although he successfully destroyed a huge threat to the anti-aircraft gun

, but there is no way to turn the overall situation around.

There are more than a dozen such anti-aircraft artillery positions, distributed on the city walls, and they are heavily protected by heavy machine guns and infantry. It is very difficult to destroy one of them, not to mention that there are more than a dozen such threats.

Although the huge defense area dispersed these damn anti-aircraft guns, because there were countless dense rifles and machine gun bullets, it was really dangerous for the dragon to get close to the city to carry out destruction.

He must gather more dragon knights! The situation in front of him is no longer something he can handle alone. He needs at least a high knight commander, or wait for General Moss to catch up?

For the first time, Ildor had the idea of ​​waiting for reinforcements. This thought made him shudder, because he was facing a mortal army, a mortal army that he had dismissed in the past.

"Bang! Bang bang!" Another anti-aircraft gun was loaded with ammunition and began to pour its ammunition towards the giant dragon in the sky. The dense ammunition cut through the air and hit a giant dragon that was circling in search of an opportunity.

Shoot down this giant dragon.

As time went by, the anti-aircraft gun shooters gradually mastered some rules. Their shooting became more accurate, and the losses of the dragon knights also began to increase. Ildo's dragon knights had a total of four teams of 20 people. Now after some

After the battle, there were less than ten dragons left that could still fight.

Because when he attacked the 1st Battalion of the 16th Regiment, he also lost a few dragon knights, but those dragon knights were injured and could not continue to participate in the battle, which was better than the dragon knights in front of him who were directly shot down.

The dragon knights lost in front of us were all real losses, especially the unlucky guy who fell into the city. Even if he was still alive, there was no possibility of rescue.

Soon, the seventh dragon had its wings broken and fell from the sky screaming. The entire dragon knight army lost the courage to attack. They had given up even approaching and circling, and soared further into the sky one by one.

But he didn't want to leave for a long time.

This was their first defeat against a mortal country since their birth. After suffering heavy losses, they did not destroy the city in front of them. Ildor was unwilling to order a retreat, but there was no good way, so he could only bite

Gritting his teeth, he was thinking about his next plan in the sky.
