"I think we will be able to launch an attack soon." Just as the defenders of Pine Valley were mobilizing artillery power, the female dark elf, one of the two commanders of the wilderness race, looked near her.
The assembled elite team of dark elves said proudly to the gray dwarves beside them.
"Obviously, these elite troops of mine will easily tear apart the defensive positions of those surface bastards in no time."
"But this is based on the premise that our artillery will tear apart the defensive position for you." The gray dwarf leader glanced at the dark elf and said. "Otherwise, with your small number of people, you will definitely not be able to break through the human firepower network.
"
"In just five more minutes, you will realize that your so-called elites are worthless in front of my artillery." The gray dwarf leader finally said. "After all, times have changed, and the era of wielding swords has passed.
.”
"Okay, then let me see what effect your artillery can do in a while?" The female dark elf curled her lips disdainfully, and then looked at the beasts of burden and the goblins in the distance slowly moving together.
The fire dragon cannon pulled into the gun position said.
"No matter how powerful your artillery is, its firing speed is only the same. So the final task of destroying this transit hub will not fall into our hands."
Just when the dark elf senior commander wanted to say something more, he suddenly saw the gray dwarf who was arguing with him just now looking in the direction of Pine Valley with his mouth wide open, not even listening to what he was saying.
"Did you see--" It is obviously a very boring thing to argue and no one listens, not to mention that the gray dwarf's expression is a bit too exaggerated.
So the dark elf commander standing opposite him turned her head and said, but before she could say anything, what she saw in front of her made her open her mouth in equal surprise.
As a transcendent, this high-ranking dark elf commander could clearly see dozens and hundreds of black spots in the night sky roaring down towards the starting point of his own attack on the periphery.
And right where these shells were flying, three red light spots were slowly falling from the sky, and the light they emitted dyed the surrounding woods an ominous blood red.
"Artillery attack -" After seeing those black spots, the dark elf commander reacted immediately. At the same time, he smashed a magic item hanging around his waist and shouted the alarm of artillery attack. In an instant, a sharp female voice almost
It suddenly filled the entire battlefield, but unfortunately, she sent the alarm a little late.
Because at the moment when her alarm sound was amplified by the magic props, the first round of artillery shells attacking various important targets also fell on the targets previously selected by the artillerymen and exploded.
Then one after another, fireballs containing a large number of high-speed flying metal fragments inside suddenly rose from the ground, and then enveloped the frontline positions of each wilderness race.
"This time - it's over." Looking at the place where the fireballs exploded, the gray dwarf leader looked in disbelief at a ball of fire not far away from them.
The location of the suddenly rising fire was a position where two fire dragon cannons were placed. And now, the two cannons that had just entered the position and the surrounding personnel were all shrouded in a yellow flame, even in this
The heat of the flames on the position could be felt everywhere.
"Cough, cough -" At this moment, a breeze blew over, and the thick white smoke from the burning positions was carried towards the two commanders.
After being choked by the pungent smell, the dark elf commander who was about to open his mouth to speak suddenly choked back his words.
"—Attack, we attack immediately." After waving his hand to fan the white smoke in front of him, the dark elf commander immediately grabbed the gray dwarf next to him and said.
"If we do nothing now, we will be dead when we go back. Now we can only attack at any cost."
Just as she shouted loudly, the second round of artillery shells also fell from the sky. However, because of the first round of artillery shells, when the second round of artillery shells switched to attack the target, the targets that had not been attacked before were also aware of it.
When things go wrong, you start to subconsciously evacuate and look for bunkers.
Therefore, after the explosion of the second round of artillery shells, the overall lethality of this batch of artillery shells was somewhat inferior to that of the first round of artillery shells.
"Yes, we should attack, and we should attack now." The gray dwarf commander who was shocked just now after seeing the artillery position being completely destroyed also woke up after being reminded by this dark elf.
After all, both material damage and casualties are understandable on the battlefield, but if they pay heavy casualties without making any counterattack, they will definitely be executed by the angry commander after they return.
So soon the two commanders released two balls of light into the sky, and then there was a burst of howling and footsteps around them:
The wilderness race troops hidden in various garrison points around Pine Valley immediately rushed towards Pine Valley under the command of some of the surviving commanders.
"Move the artillery firing position from e4 to d3. All the hobgoblins and bugbears in the group of goblins in area e4 have been eliminated, so they should not be able to pose much threat to us in a short time. And now the group of goblins in area d3
A few trolls are likely to pose a threat to our front lines."
As the preparations for the bombardment began, Lawrence came to the heavy mortar position next to the field hospital to take command.
With Nora's real-time intelligence, he can command the artillery to quickly change the shooting target, instead of only shooting according to the original observed target like other artillery pieces.
"The new white phosphorus bomb is really effective," said Nora, who used her special ability in the sky to observe the conditions of the shelled locations through the thick white smoke.
"Although those fire dragon cannons look fine on the outside, I can be sure that the surrounding cannon operators are completely finished."
"This is natural. White phosphorus has a double-kill effect when used as an incendiary bomb. In addition to burning, the smoke produced after burning white phosphorus is also toxic."
As he spoke, Lawrence also raised his binoculars and looked at the thick white smoke rising from the jungle not far away. "Unfortunately, the production of this special artillery shell is really insufficient, and each heavy mortar can only be equipped with two to
Three of these shells."
To be honest, Lawrence would not have dared to use white phosphorus bombs so intensively in other places. After all, the wind direction must be taken into consideration.
But because this place is in a valley in the mountains, the drafts that pass quickly through the valley can naturally blow the toxic smoke to both sides and to the downwind of the canyon. Therefore, as long as you do not shoot at the targets in the upwind direction,
Just use this kind of shell.
"The other side has begun to attack." Just after the last white phosphorus shell was fired from the artillery position next to Lawrence, Nora suddenly reported to Lawrence. At the same time, she used the rocket she carried with her to explode two red, one yellow and three flowers in the air.
spark.
After receiving the alarm signal, Lawrence immediately looked towards the edge of the forest around the valley. As a result, he saw a large number of black shadows emerging from the edge of the forest, making a piercing howling sound and rushing towards the front line defense position of Pine Valley.
"Replace anti-personnel shells and shoot the line from the edge of the jungle from area d1 to area d6." Seeing the black race of wilderness races rushing out of the woods, Lawrence immediately issued a new order to the artillery. "We must carry out blocking fire as much as possible.
Reduce the number of enemies rushing to the front of the position."
Ten seconds later, a new round of artillery shells was fired at the line at the edge of the woods. The wilderness race team that rushed towards the Pine Valley defensive position like a tide was immediately cut in the middle.
A large number of high-speed flying hot steel balls formed a steel wall, abruptly cutting off the charging momentum of the wilderness race army.
