As soon as Lawrence gave the order, a red signal flare was raised from the fortress where Lawrence and the others were. The next moment, a large number of lights suddenly turned on, and then all the firepower deployed on the side of the peninsula facing the sea was directed at those on the beach at the same time.
The monsters poured out.
In an instant, a large amount of ammunition fell into the murlocs who were preparing to attack. The murlocs who gathered on the beach and prepared to attack immediately became the best targets.
"Boom, boom, boom... boom, boom, boom..." The battery of six 120mm mortars fired rapidly according to the direction reported by the observation post on the top of the mountain. Even before the first shell hit the ground, the second shell was fired.
The shells had already flown out of the barrel. As the core of Lawrence's current firepower, these large-caliber mortars first sent the warmest greetings to the fishmen.
The biggest problem with large-caliber mortars is that the range is too short. At least when faced with ordinary cannons or howitzers, they can only be beaten. The current situation is the most suitable for them to exert their firepower. A large number of 16-kilogram shells draw a picture in the air.
A high-throw projectile, and then fell into the attackers' queue at a nearly vertical angle. Then the high explosives inside exploded with a bang, throwing a large amount of deadly metal onto all living things around it.
Because the murlocs were in a group before, the formation was very dense, so these shells that happened to hit caused huge damage immediately after they exploded. After the three rapid fire rounds, 18 shells were scattered among the murlocs.
It produced more than 500 dead and an equal number of injured, and at the same time dispersed the gathering points of all the murloc landing forces.
At the same time, the ratmen distributed along the entire front used the precision shooter rifles in their hands and began to concentrate their firepower on the sahuagin who narrowly escaped from the shells, especially the sahuagin commanders, one by one with special bullets.
Falling to the ground. This further increased the chaos of the sahuagin people, making it easier for Lawrence and the others to eliminate the other attackers.,,
"Damn it, didn't the previous reconnaissance say that the defense here is very weak?" A sahuagin noble who was lucky enough to escape from the intensive fire said hoarsely. Because Lawrence's extraordinary level is not low, those murlocs
They could only observe from a distance. After Lawrence entered the battlefield, he took battlefield concealment measures and the difference between mortars and ordinary artillery caused those murlocs who observed from a distance to greatly underestimate Lawrence's firepower.
"Don't worry, they don't have many cannons. We can rush up and tangle with them." Another sahuagin noble who was previously responsible for leading the investigation vowed, but now he stopped after firing three rounds.
The mortars made him more confident. After all, they had encountered artillery before when they robbed ships, so they were not completely unfamiliar with artillery.
"Okay, let's stop concentrating when we get ashore. Just spread out and rush up. I don't think there are many people here and there are not many lights, so we have a chance to rush up." The one with the highest status among the surviving sahuagins.
The fishman shouted, then he took out a palm-sized conch from his chest and blew it.
After hearing the order, the murlocs stopped their Brownian motion, and then began to rush upward in scattered directions. At this time, the priests of the Agricultural Church also activated the plant traps on the hillsides and beaches to start to delay the enemies.
The Rat Man guided everyone to shoot at those guys who tried to use the darkness to reach out.
The lighting in this place has also been arranged in advance. Those dark areas that seem to be able to hide are actually death traps. Lawrence and the others have either arranged magic plants with powerful offensive properties there, or they have arranged some
Elite Skaven shooters, all of which can cause heavy losses to the attacking side.
Just as the shooters began to kill the scattered fish-men who had difficulty moving on land one by one on the hillside, Lawrence directed the artillery to start shooting at the two giant hermit crabs that entered the shallow sea area and were about to land. These
Giant hermit crabs are about as tall as a two-story building and have a thick carapace.
The first few rounds of ordinary explosive bullets were all stopped by the hermit crabs using magic mixed with their carapace, only creating some large and small craters. The next round of solid bullets did break their shells.
The shell was added, but some blue gel-like objects were quickly produced in the opponent's body to block the wounds, and then the whole thing continued to move towards the coast step by step as before.
"We are temporarily unable to hit the same wound or the opponent's moving claws with two shells." The artillery officer said to Lawrence, "So if more firepower cannot be added, our artillery can't even with full output."
It can delay the opponent for 5-7 minutes at most, and it is basically impossible to kill these two big guys."
"Please don't worry, we will solve this problem soon." Lawrence said. He had just planned to organize a commando team to personally lead the team to kill the two monsters, but Nora, who was connected to his soul, proposed a new one.
Plan. "I think just waiting a few seconds is enough. Nora should—"
Before he finished speaking, the little doll flew in directly from the fortress's gun window and said: "Now prepare some solid cannonballs for me? I will temporarily enchant them. If there are no accidents, these cannonballs should be able to
Kill those damn giant crabs."
In fact, Lawrence wanted to do this when Nora mentioned enchantment just now. Unfortunately, Bai Ze's power is not very effective against these pure beasts. Because although these sea beasts are huge, they are only domesticated by fishmen.
They are just beasts, so they are not evil? There will be no bonus when using Bai Ze's power.
I saw the little doll walked to the shell box and opened the lid of the shell box, then took out a handful of dusty powder from her arms and began to mutter something. Along with a series of mysterious rhythmic sounds, her mouth
The powder quickly stretched out a few tentacles like a slime, and then flowed towards the six 76mm shells in the ammunition box.
After entering the ammunition box, these tentacles wrapped around the warheads of several artillery shells, wrapping the warheads, and then seeped in little by little. As these tentacles seeped in, the powder in the hands of the little puppet was visible to the naked eye.
It shrank, and at the same time the original paint on the warhead began to peel off, revealing the original gray-black metal color underneath and gray patterns began to appear.
When all the gray powder disappeared? The warheads that were originally wrapped in it were completely exposed. Now those cannonballs are covered with gray patterns that seem to be flowing, looking a bit like the specialties of ancient civilizations in the eastern part of Earthsea in the Old World.
The pattern steel is the same as the pattern steel, but it is far more beautiful than those pattern steel.
"Wake up, it's time to start work now." Seeing that the artillerymen present seemed to be completely attracted by the flowing patterns on the bullets, Lawrence had to shout to them loudly: "Just use these shells to shoot that big guy?
These shells of mine should be able to stop those two big guys completely."
When Lawrence shouted, the artillerymen suddenly woke up as if from a dream? Then they quickly returned to their fighting positions and began to load the artillery shells and pockets at once, then turned the handwheel and began to fine-tune the artillery.
Point to.
Because the movements of the two big guys were not fast and the distance was very close, the artillerymen quickly aimed at each other and pulled the match rope. In an instant, six shells flew towards the two big guys.
Because all the previous shells were ineffective? So none of the fish-men extraordinary people present made any move to intercept? They just watched the six light points break through the defense of the two giant hermit crabs and fly into their bodies.
"The shaman drank magic potion for these giant war beasts before setting off and asked the gods for grace, so you don't have to worry -" a sahuagin shouted loudly, not only for himself but also for everyone around him.
He was encouraging. But before he finished speaking, he saw the two monsters behind him suddenly stopped their movements and started to tremble.
The murlocs who saw this scene couldn't help but panic, and then looked at the sahuagin noble who was encouraging them just now. But that noble also had an expression of disbelief on his face.
