Chapter 384: Surprise Attack (4)
The three of them flew about twenty miles or so, and suddenly Mike. Jordan played the sign language of the battle alarm, and he held up the binoculars to look ahead, a solemn look on his face.
Fight?
Richard. Rooney and Rico. Johnny was as excited as if he had been beaten...... At this point, you can show the difference between a seasoned warrior and a new recruit. The former is skillful in tactical maneuvers and does not have the slightest procrastination; And the latter seems to be a little hurried, showing the true colors of a rookie.
"Climb high and get ready for battle!" Mike. Jordan commanded sternly.
For these two recruits, he is still very satisfied, the strength is okay, the psychological element is not bad, what is lacking is experience. In time, they will surely grow into true warriors.
The three of them harnessed the snow vultures, went up against the wind, and soared into the air, until they were more than 600 meters above the ground, and they stopped...... In a short time, more than 20 swan warriors lined up in a herringbone formation, and at a distance of more than 200 meters from the ground, they quietly flew over in the direction of Alf's evacuation.
"Captain, they don't seem to have spotted us?" Richard. Rooney was eager to take the plunge.
In air combat, the first to spot the enemy means to have the initiative in battle. However, the current number is a bit different, and two of the three are rookies, and once the battle starts, the consequences are unpredictable.
Hathaway repeatedly told the Flying Knights that the Flying Horsemen of the Cordillera City Defenses were invaluable because they could not be resupplied after their loss. Therefore, if you have little chance of winning in an air battle, try to avoid fighting. This is also one of the reasons why flight squadrons have fewer combat missions.
Although the swan knights fly at a low altitude, they are a flying race after all, and the medium and low altitude combat is quite difficult. Mike. Even though the three Jordans had the advantage of anticipating the enemy and the height, they were absolutely different in numbers, so that the surprise attack could not guarantee that they would be able to drag them out. Fight hard, it must be just a matter of how much to drag the enemy's back.
"No, they found us, it's just that their target is Alf and they don't want to entangle with us!" Mike. Jordan was unusually calm, "Prepare the fireworks." Armor-piercing bullets on mobile phones. ”
The standard equipment of the Flying Knight is in addition to a riding spear, a shield, and a sword. There are also mounted rifles (a modified version of the Magic Rifle, which is slightly shorter than a regular rifle and can be used on horses or flying beasts), pistols, exploding grenades, and incendiary grenades. In addition to the snipers, who were armed with sniper rifles, the average knight carried a pistol. Loaded with armor-piercing shells. to deal with magical defenses or fighting rings.
The trio quickly approached the swan warrior from a high altitude. At the time of reaching the attack position, Mike. Jordan shouted: "Attack! ”
At the same time as the three of them swooped, the swan warriors suddenly spread out as if they were blooming in the center. This illustrates Mike. Jordan was right, maybe the other party found them late, but it was not unaware, so he took this response, so that the three of them lost their target for a while.
"Don't rush to attack, follow me!"
Mike. Jordan said, "Richard, get Molotov cocktails ready. ”
Although not very clear Mike. What is Jordan going to do but Richard. Rooney and Rico. Johnny knows that now they can only trust their comrades.
Mike. Jordan pressed all his body against the vulture, falling like a meteor, his gaze fixed on a swan warrior who was trying to dodge, locking on to target it.
The scattered swan warriors took out their bows and arrows, ready to dodge the combined dive attacks of the flying knights, and then seize the opportunity to pull them up and counterattack.
The downstroke was so fast that the strong air currents swayed the knights' bodies, and they needed to clamp the vulture's body very hard to secure themselves on its back.
Objectively speaking, Richard. Rooney and Rico. Johnny's current surface is a reflection of the common distrust of novice flying knights and their lack of understanding of their mounts.
You must know that during the weekday training, the two of them have repeatedly practiced flying skills that are much more difficult than this, and they are quite calm.
But at this moment, in actual combat, the two of them can't really control the subtle reactions of their bodies and emotions.
Of course, this is understandable. After all, before that, they lacked the training of actual combat. Like other flying knights, they still need to be trained in actual combat before they can grow gradually.
By Mike. Jordan's on-the-go swan warrior quickly sensed the danger of death from above, and he made a zig-zag motion desperately, and almost frantically lowered his altitude.
Due to the extremely fast dive speed, although Mike. Jordan continued to use the weight pressed on the vulture to adjust the direction and angle of his attack slightly, and the Swan Warrior still managed to pull away from his impact arc.
At the moment, Mike. Jordan faced a dilemma...... To stick to his target, he must slow down immediately, then catch the moving target and kill him in one fell swoop. But in doing so, lose the speed and height advantage of Mike. Jordan, with a good chance of being attacked by other swan warriors.
Or keep the current dive arc unchanged and force it up when it is close to the ground...... In this way, with the help of speed inertia, he can quickly pull up and effectively dodge the attacks of the swan warriors...... This is not Mike. Jordan's character.
Sure enough, when he was only fifty or sixty meters above the ground, Mike. Jordan let out a deep sigh and said, "Pull up!" ”
Richard, whose expression had long been tense. Rooney and Rico. Johnny subconsciously changed direction to pull up the air rider who rushed down...... And Mike. Jordan flashed his rifle and slung it on his left arm, aiming it at the swan warrior who thought he was already at a safe distance.
飕~
The sound of projectiles breaking through the air could be heard.
"Ahh
The poor swan knight never imagined that the power of the magic rifle was far beyond the power of the bow and arrow...... He had even picked up his bow and arrows and was ready to fight back, but a bloody hole had already appeared in his chest.
Almost at the same time, Richard. Rooney and Rico. Johnny attacked, their right hand swinging in a small motion, throwing two poppers.
Call! Call!
This is an incendiary bomb coated with a special agent on the surface, after burning violently in the air, the surface will produce flames, and when the surface temperature reaches a certain degree, it will detonate the explosive agent inside, and between the shell and the core, it is supplemented by a layer of diamond-shaped steel balls, and the effective range of action is six ~ seven square meters.
That's right, it's a range-attack weapon, considering that aiming in the air is not easy, like Mike. Jordan's kind of marksmanship is definitely a long-trained one, and the bullets are not very easy to dodge.
Rumble! Rumble!
In the two explosions, mixed with the sound of 'fluttering' steel balls breaking through the air and screams, six or seven swan warriors couldn't dodge, and their bodies were hit like a sieve by the steel balls, and they fell to the ground. A few others were clearly injured and flew crookedly.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Several swan warriors who were far away began to shoot arrows, and at the same time adjusted their formation, quickly surrounded them, and formed several attack waves in an orderly manner, preparing for wave attacks.
Judging from the reaction, this is a group of very experienced swan warriors, but they lack strong warriors, and they are destined to suffer a lot in the face of the sharp weapons of the Cordillera city defense army, and the lack of effective means of defense.
"Attack!"
Mike. Jordan roared loudly, picked up his shield, flapped several feathered arrows into the air, and quickly put his right-handed gun on the shield, pulling the trigger again.
"Ahh
A swan warrior let out a cry of grief and staggered to the ground. However, the other two's attacks were obviously ineffective, and although they forced the swan warriors, they did not cause any casualties...... Attacking an enemy who is experienced in combat is not at all comparable to a moving target.
The swan warriors were not discouraged at all, and they kept shooting arrows at the three men in waves, forcing them to dodge incessantly.
But Mike. Although Jordan is experienced, the two rookies have also begun to apply it in actual combat, and before they know it, the knowledge they learned in the base began to be integrated in actual combat...... All three of them all rose in height to get rid of these swan warriors.
In terms of speed, the Vulture is indeed stronger than the Swan Warrior, but when it comes to maneuvering and maneuvering in small areas, the Swan Warrior is the expert.
For them, more than 20 people against three people, but heavy casualties, this is unacceptable in any way, at this time, seeing that they have the intention of leaving the battlefield, they immediately chased after them.
"Get the magic scrolls ready, get ready to surprise them!" During the climb, Mike. Jordan gave the order.
In the hands of the flying knights, they all hold some magic scrolls, but this thing is more precious than bullets and bullets, and they can't use it. Jordan is the main thing, to compete for the full credit.
Just when the Swan Knight, as the three of them expected, couldn't help but gather the attacking team due to pursuit, Richard. Rooney and Rico. Johnny unfolded the magic scroll at the same time.
Cryomy!
It's not a high-level spell, and in actual combat, casting high-level magic is not a good thing for knights. On the contrary, this kind of small and fresh auxiliary magic will come in handy...... The white chill enveloped the swan warriors as quickly as the tide of the sea.
Their wings were immediately covered with frost, and despite the leather armor on their bodies, their joints were frozen to the point that they were almost unconscious...... There are still a few martial artists who can show their fighting spirit.
"Kill!"
Mike. Jordan didn't talk about chivalry at this time, picked up his spear, and rushed into the ranks of the swan warriors with two newcomers.
Burst! Burst! Burst!
Fountains of blood shot out in the air, and in the screams, those swan warriors fell one after another...... After a while, there was no swan warrior in the sky, and even the few swan warriors who were injured and fell were killed by Mike. Jordan and the others killed them one by one. (To be continued......)
