Chapter 31 The cannon fights mosquitoes

Manov, who had already learned this once, knew this very well, and according to the speed of the first wave of the Sea Clan fleet, when the reinforcements were exposed to the enemy's attack range, a small number of soldiers would be attacked, and a strategy to minimize the losses had to be worked out.

As the saying goes, Praval looked at the ravine, which was more than ten meters deep, and a very simple but risky thought appeared in his mind.

"Now there is a basin between the 14th Army and the port of Cankula, well, call it a basin for the time being, according to the estimates, when we are exposed to the attack, we can evacuate more than 6,000 people at most, and the remaining nearly 2,000 people can only save themselves, climbing from the cliff and landing is a compulsory course for the imperial soldiers, and the last regiment to evacuate in order falls to the bottom of the basin to dig a hole. ”

"I see," Konstantin nodded, "Originally, this was a flat area that could naturally be fully covered by firepower, but now the natural barrier more than ten meters high is enough to prevent a large area from being blown up for a period of time, and the soldiers are trying to dig holes in and down, so that they may not die in vain." ”

"This way... It's really simple and crude, but it's not too embarrassing. Manov's face was a little strange, it was true that the best way to solve the problem was sometimes the easiest way, but what was the difference between this method and the fear of the enemy, it was too humiliating for the elite army, especially when the last wave of enemy troops was wiped out by his own side with fewer victories and more victories.

"No way, the enemy's naval strength is too strong, the technological development of the sea clan is simply crooked, there is such a strong navy but in many aspects it is far inferior to us, this is the common problem of the deep sea race?" Konstantin turned to look at his subordinates: "Just do it, the fourth regiment of the fourteenth army belongs to follow me." ”

"Lord Konstantin, you!?" the soldiers were unhappy, how could they put the commander in danger and evacuate by themselves?

"This is an order, I, as the commander of the corps, naturally cannot go first, and according to the estimate, once we meet the enemy in a short battle, it will be at the bottom of the basin, can't we defeat the enemy without war horses? Don't forget that Manov's troops are only one regiment, but they have dragged the enemy army more than ten times their own for so long, what are we afraid of?" Hearing that Konstantin spoke in a commanding tone, the soldiers naturally could only accept the order, and the two thousand people of the Fourth Regiment quickly broke away from the evacuation team to prepare for the climbing rope, and the fourteenth regiment was somewhat special, they only had four regiments, but they were all elite heavy cavalry, which was enough to exert a strong strength that was difficult for other legions to play on some battlefields.

"What are they doing?" Dagrek looked at the big screen a little confused, the Saran Empire troops on the beach suddenly walked towards the basin in the rear, because he was blocked by the figure, he couldn't see what the enemy was doing, but it seemed like jumping off the basin, of course, as a sea clan general, he naturally wouldn't think that the enemy army would collectively jump off the cliff to commit suicide such a ridiculous thing, although there were some speculations in his heart but he was not sure.

"Lord Daglick, there's a summons from the Forty-First Legion. ”

"What do you want to say about that Vanogis guy," Dagrek took the report from Lacey's hand, and after reading it, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "There is indeed such a possibility, but when the time comes, our bombing will cover a radius of nearly thirty kilometers in diameter, what is the use of them hiding like this? Sooner or later, we will blow it up, anyway, we have a lot of ammunition." ”

"Yes. Lacey walked out, and after a few minutes, he ran in again, and said nervously, "Report to Lord Daglick, five warships have appeared on the left and five warships on the right, and they are rushing towards this side." ”

"Why are you so nervous? I guess I want to cover the evacuation of enemy troops on the shore, and we don't have to be afraid of such a warship. ”

"No, the speed of these ten warships is extremely abnormal, according to intelligence, the speed of the warships of the Saran Empire does not exceed 40 knots at most, otherwise they cannot control it with their technology, but the speed of these ten warships is far more than this number of knots. ”

"Suicide attack?" Dagrek was stunned for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "I can't rule out this possibility, if you want to attack by ramming the ship, it will be very troublesome, the coverage of the sea demon cannon is different from the coverage of the land demon cannon, the shell will not explode when it hits the sea... Lacey, pass my order, cover the enemy ships with fire, remember that it is a large area, otherwise you will not be able to hit the enemy who is too fast. ”

"Understood. ”

These ten battleships are Manov's backhand, at this moment, according to the plan, although they can barely evacuate the troops, but everything has a case, so Manov thought of this way of insurance, the soldiers on this ship have been evacuated to the nearby watchtower, these ten battleships are full of bombs at the moment to completely pull off the speed limit, although the Saran Imperial warship propulsion device is very powerful, but the control device can't keep up, so it led to the situation that Raisi said before, after pulling off the speed limit, the battleship will automatically sprint in one direction at full speed, Manov asked Praval in advance about the speed of the enemy, and accurately estimated the direction of the sprint, which can reach speeds of up to 50 knots, to the point where it is difficult to be targeted by enemy artillery.

Rumble!

The rain of brilliant magic cannons covered the sea, and there was no such indiscriminate bombardment here compared to the land, but anyone knew that as long as they took a shot, the result would be unimaginable.

"Dagrek, such a waste of ammunition, these suicide attack ships are difficult to target, but when they get close, they are still easy to deal with, and if it is not good, we will not be able to dive en masse. Valogis shook his head, but he couldn't think of his allies, after all, Dagram was a true madman when he started fighting, a madman who believed that fire would determine victory.

"Is the fire covering? Looks like the enemy has discovered something. Praval took the binoculars and looked at the overwhelming rain of magical guns, and wondered.

"That's my warship," Manov replied via the teleportation crystal, "according to the information they sent back, the people have been evacuated, and now these ten battleships are full of ramming bombs, the speed limit has been pulled, the speed should have reached about 50 knots, it would be nice if you were lucky enough to hit an enemy ship, but since the estimation error should be unlikely, this can only reduce their speed, if you can make them stop." ”

"You have a good brain, but it is very likely that you can only consume the enemy's ammunition, and the enemy commander is really generous, such a spectacular super-large area of dense firepower coverage is only to fight ten warships that are weak for them, what is the difference between a cannon to fight ten mosquitoes. Praval laughed as he boarded his flagship, the best evacuation was about to be completed, and now it was up to Konstantin and his two thousand men to climb the rock.
