"Okay." The young Loka fishman seemed to prefer to take advantage of this period of time to wander around here and take a look at Lawrence and the others' preparations for this matter.
But after seeing Lawrence so enthusiastically inviting them to rest for a while, they could only nod, and then followed Lawrence's soldiers to leave the harbor and go to the place they had prepared in advance to rest.
"From a certain point of view, what the other party said is true, at least in their hearts, that is what they believe." After the group of Loka fish people were taken down, a priest from the Church of the Dawn was not far away.
came out of a building and said to Lawrence,
"But they have extremely weak spiritual power. If I hadn't prepared for the situation in advance and borrowed my Lord's power to carry out targeted detection, it would have been impossible to detect it."
"Sure enough, the other party really has a conspiracy in this action." Lawrence frowned, and then asked the priest. "By the way, now you can see the magic attached to the Loka fish man.
Which aspect is it? This is very important for our next actions."
"I'm sorry, Your Excellency. I can't conduct such a detailed investigation for the time being." The priest of the Dawn Church showed an embarrassed expression on his face. "Because now I can only carry out the investigation from the little bit of power leaked from the other party.
Analysis, if I take the initiative to detect his power, those who release these magical arts are likely to discover my actions."
"So that's it - you don't have to blame yourself, I can understand this." Looking at the embarrassed expression on the priest's face, Lawrence Lik comforted. "For us, the information you have found is enough.
At least we can confirm that the Loka fish people will never come to us just to escape the war as they said before."
Obviously, if it is a normal Loka fish-man who wants to run away, he will never have that weird magic. And this discovery is enough to prove that the information intercepted by Lawrence and Nora is true.
It is indeed possible for the Chinese fishmen to mix in with this group of Loka fishmen and launch a surprise attack.
After all, although the terrain of this harbor is easy to defend and difficult to attack, from another perspective, the attacking sahuagins can bypass a series of fortifications and guards set up by humans on the seaside as long as they seize this area in this raid.
They rushed straight into the city from the side and rear of the city to plunder.
Anyway, for the sahuagins, their main purpose of attacking here is to kill and rob. They don't need to consider staying on the shore for a long time, so naturally they don't need to worry too much about rear defense. So they take this opportunity to launch a surprise attack and send a large number of troops away.
Going ashore is indeed a very good tactic for them.
This is why Lawrence tried to find a way to temporarily place the Loka fishmen who came ashore under house arrest, because he did not want these Loka fishmen to see the series of fortifications deployed around the harbor and the people who had been arrested under various excuses before.
The elite troops were secretly mobilized and caused unnecessary losses in the subsequent operations.
In the next few hours, Lawrence and the others quietly waited for the attack from the sahuagin. Sure enough, around 2:00 in the morning, a large group of sahuagin and lorka appeared.
Under the cover of the giant ocean beasts, they once again launched a large-scale attack on land.
"There are a large number of sahuagin and their servants attacking in front of each position." A signal soldier in blue uniform held up the newly decoded code in his hand and shouted. "It can be seen from the coastline now.
With about 20 war beasts and 5-7 silver-level extraordinary beings among the sahuagin, our heavy firepower and extraordinary beings are now ready to fight."
"Understood, continue to monitor all telegrams." Lawrence, as the local supreme commander, said, "Especially the information about the specific number and movement of the incoming enemy troops must not be missed. When multiple intelligences appear at the same time,
Messages of this type have the highest priority."
After speaking, Lawrence walked to a large sand table. At this time, several young staff officers had already moved a number of signs on the map based on the contents of the telegram.
This place was a cellar previously used by the resort to store food and wine. Since Lawrence and the others determined that the sahuagin might launch a raid, it was transformed into a temporary command center. By receiving the radio signals on the island, they were able to
Accurately judge the situation on the battlefield.
"The opponent should be launching a full-scale attack, but from a certain perspective, it looks more like harassment." A staff officer of the Sauer Island Defense Force said after looking at the pattern on the sand table, "According to the description on the telegram,
This time the sahuagin formations are spread out widely, and the giant war monsters are all concentrated and wandering outside the range of most of our artillery. Therefore, the opponent does not seem to want to launch an attack."
The physiological structure of the Sahuagin people determines that it is impossible for them to maneuver long distances on land. Therefore, if they want to achieve their purpose of robbery, there is no other way but to attack those populated areas head-on.
However, as the only island of the White Eagle Federation in the Sea of Stars, over the past hundred years, a number of very strong military fortifications have been built on the sea side of the city on Vieques Island. If these fortifications are not destroyed, the sahuagin people
There was no way to get ashore.
Therefore, for the sahuagin, there is only one way for them to make a large-scale landing. That is to use the power of extraordinary beings and war monsters to clear a path on the defense line in the shortest possible time, and then allow the large forces to withstand the damage.
Break through the defense line. Therefore, if their war monsters refuse to dock, then this attack will be just some harassment.
As new telegrams continued to be received, the specific circumstances of the sahuagin attack were slowly sketched out on the sand table.
As they had judged before, this attack was indeed nothing more than harassment. Except for a small number of sahuagin extraordinary men who led elite troops to launch a short assault on the shore, both sides mainly relied on long-range weapons to cover long distances.
It was just a sporadic exchange of fire. For an entire hour, the death toll on the human side had not reached three digits.
Watching the time slowly approaching 3:00 in the morning, Lawrence led an elite force and the group of Loka fishmen from before into the temporary firepower points located on the two cliffs of the bay. Not long after they took their positions, this time
Hua Fin, the leader of the Loka fishmen who was sent, said excitedly to Lawrence: "My compatriots are coming soon, please be prepared to receive them."
"No problem." Lawrence nodded, and then directed the soldiers on a fort to start adjusting the angle of the artillery to prepare to shoot at the sea. At the same time, several extraordinary people also followed an extremely narrow road to the entrance of the harbor.
Prepared for battle on a small platform.
At this time, a large group of fish people's unique screams and the sound of paddling came from the direction of the sea, even suppressing the sound of the waves for a while. Then they saw densely packed smooth backs and fins exposed.
He broke out of the water and swam toward the bay at a very high speed.
Because his eyes have been strengthened, Lawrence can clearly see that these guys in the water are actually divided into two groups. The group in the front appears to be in a messy formation, just rushing in this direction in a swarm. And the group in the back
That group lined up in a neat formation and quickly approached the group in front.
Fortunately, the group of people in front returned in disorder, but because the organizational structure was not completely chaotic, they would not completely disperse. So from time to time, a group of people was separated from the large group to go forward to block the pursuers who were getting closer and closer.
