Chapter 497: Lake Merrill Lynch Air Battle 3

At this time, the six hundred battleships and one hundred space carriers of the shield charging battle array on the half-orc side climbed to an altitude of 30,000 meters and approached the airspace of the battle.

The 500 warships in the shield charge battle formation on the half-orc side flew away from the original shield charge battle array, entered the combat airspace at great speed, and joined the air battle.

The remaining hundred warships escorted the one hundred space carriers that still maintained a shield-shaped queue, keeping a safe distance from the warring airspace, and began to circle the warring airspace.

In this kind of aerial battle, in which the high-speed movement of the battleship was fiercely contested, the bird regiment on the orc side was completely ineffective.

At this time, the 1,000 warships of the Diamond Principality's backup rectangular battle array also flew into the combat airspace at great speed and joined the battle.

"Boom......"

"Woo Woo ......"

In the airspace with a radius of more than 100 kilometers, the small balls of light continuously launched by the photon crossbow were connected in a line, like a dense meteor shower, constantly cutting through the void.

Countless magically blessed crossbow arrows that shimmered with faint light rubbed the air, emitting even brighter light, and like a star arrow, they drew countless fleeting traces of scattered light in the void.

As the air battle continued, the ships on the orc side were constantly shot down.

"Bang ......"

In the airspace with a radius of more than 100 kilometers, warships also continued to collide with each other and were torn apart.

The downed battleship, as well as the wreckage of the crashed battleship, and the ordinary sergeants who had lost their support, were in chaos and fell into the void.

Some of the sergeants who had lost the Qi refining of the battleship were panicked and flew around, some of them were shot down by random arrows, some of them were smashed to pieces by the high-speed flying warship, some of the sergeants from the orc side and the sergeants of the Principality of Diamond were engaged in hand-to-hand combat in the void, and some of the sergeants on the orc side and the sergeants of the Diamond Principality were flying towards the surface without regard for fighting.

……

The air battle was fierce and lasted twenty minutes.

The Principality of Diamonds lost more than 200 warships, most of which crashed into the void after collision, and a few of which inevitably engaged in close combat with the orcs and were destroyed by the orcs, resulting in a crash.

The losses on the Half-Orc side were even greater, and under the double blow of the Diamond Principality's magically blessed crossbow arrows and photon crossbows, the Half-Orcs side lost at least three hundred warships.

The two sides are still fighting fiercely at the top of the battle, and they are temporarily equal, and it is difficult to distinguish the upper hand.

However, one thing is certain, as long as the air battle continues, the battle losses on the orc side will be more and more large.

"Bobobo......"

At this moment, in the airspace with a radius of more than 100 kilometers, dozens of yellow signal flares burst one after another, like fireworks, emitting a blazing yellow light.

General Trump of the 1st Infantry (Battleship) Regiment of the 9th Assault Regiment of the Half-Orcs saw that the battle was unfavorable and decisively gave the order to retreat.

Next, under the strategy and containment of the top ranks of the half-orc side who were accompanying the army to supervise the battle, the warships on the half-orc side broke away from the battle one after another, accelerated with all their might, and began to evacuate towards the periphery of the battlering airspace.

The top speed and instantaneous acceleration of the half-orc ships were superior, so the half-orc ships quickly moved away from the airspace of engagement.

The warships on the side of the Principality of Diamond could not catch up with the warships on the orc side, so they could only let the warships on the orc side fly farther and farther.

"Bobobo......"

In the airspace within a radius of more than 100 kilometers, dozens of green signal flares burst one after another, also like fireworks, emitting a dazzling green light.

The commander-in-chief of the Diamond Principality's War of Resistance gave Anhar the order to "stop the pursuit and start assembling".

The air battle was over, and under the protection of the top ranks of the Principality of Diamond side who were supervising the battle, the warships of the Principality of Diamond flew back one after another, flying towards the "Diamond Nine" ship, and began to assemble with the "Diamond Nine" ship as the benchmark.

……

The air battle lasted half an hour, with 2,000 warships and 200,000 sergeants on the Diamond Principality side participating in the battle, and 900 warships and 90,000 sergeants on the orc side participating in the battle (another 100 warships and 100 space carriers stayed away from the combat airspace from beginning to end and did not join the battle).

After the battle, the Principality of Diamond lost more than 230 warships and more than 23,000 sergeants, while the orc side lost more than 320 warships and more than 32,000 sergeants. The Principality of Diamonds won a big victory with outnumbered opponents.

This victory was the first victory won by the resistance of the Principality of Diamond in a head-to-head duel with the Principality of Diamonds after the Orc army invaded the Principality of Diamond.

……

Five o'clock in the afternoon.

The commander-in-chief of the Anti-Japanese War of the Principality of Diamonds, Anhar, led the 3rd, 7th, 9th, and 11th Army Corps of the Military Affairs Office of the Principality of Diamonds, all the way unimpeded, and successfully flew to the southeast corner of the Changnan Forest and arrived at the Changnan mining area.

A column of orcs of prey stationed in the Changnan mining area withdrew without a fight.

After four years and four months, the Principality of Diamond has finally recaptured the Changnan Mining Area.

After the half-orc invaded the Terrans, in the first three years, the maximum speed of the half-orc battleship far exceeded the maximum speed of the Terran warship, the effective range of the half-orc crossbow far exceeded the effective range of the Terran crossbow, the half-orc was equipped with a large number of magically blessed crossbow arrows and feather arrows and the most advanced photon crossbow, plus the individual combat power of the half-orc sergeant far exceeded the individual combat power of the Terran sergeant, and the composition of the troops and the ability to coordinate combat were extremely outstanding. Therefore, in any battle and battle with the Terran resistance, the army on the orc side is overwhelming, devastating, and unstoppable.

However, there is a trade-off.

After the fall of Sunset Island, the supply of all kinds of magical weapons and equipment on the orc side was completely cut off, and the frequency of use of battleships and space carriers was severely limited. On the Terran side, it caught up later. In the third and fourth years of the Anti-Japanese War, the orcs were mostly equipped with ordinary crossbow arrows, and only a very small number of magically blessed crossbow arrows and photon crossbows. On the Terran side, more and more magically blessed crossbows were equipped, and photon crossbows began to be used in large quantities, and the effective range of various magic weapons on both sides was completely close. In addition, the warships of the Terran side continue to make breakthroughs in technology, and the comprehensive performance of the battleship is very close to that of the warships of the half-orc side, and the performance of the warships of the Terran side in some aspects is even surpassing the warships of the half-orc side.

In the early stage of the Anti-Japanese War, in the air battle, whether it was long-range strikes or hand-to-hand combat, the orc side had the advantage, and the human side was completely crushed. Even if the Terran side moths to the fire and seek to engage in melee combat with the orc side, the half-orc side relies on the excellent performance of the warship and keeps a distance from the warship on the Terran side, and does not give the Terran side a chance to fight in close combat at all.

Now, the situation has been completely reversed.

The orc side, which was severely lacking in magical blessing weapons, was in a passive situation when faced with the blows of the Terran side equipped with a large number of magical blessing weapons. The orc side tried to get close to the Terran side and start a melee battle with the Terran side, but the battleship reequipped by the Terran side had excellent performance and was not inferior to the warship of the half-orc side at all, so the battleship on the Terran side kept a distance from the warship on the half-orc side, and did not give the half-orc side a chance to fight in close combat at all.

In fact, the Battle of Lake Merrill was not only a watershed moment in the war between the resistance forces of the Principality of Diamond and the orcs, but also a microcosm of the resistance of the Terran federations and principalities during this period, as well as the wars between the major guilds of Silent Hill and the orcs.

The situation is becoming more and more serious for the orc legions and legions that have invaded the Terran Federations and Duchies, as well as Silent Hills.

Of course, for the major federations and principalities of the Terran race, as well as the major guilds of Silent Hills, the pressure of the War of Resistance is still as heavy as a mountain.

Two months after the air battle at Lake Merrill Lynch.

By the year 92623 of the Nebula calendar, the war between the Orcs and the Terrans had entered a new and complex phase. For this reason, Wang Yasama, the northern general who originally guarded the northern part of the Cloud Continent, led an army of one million and flew over the Hot Spring Pass in early May, and also came to the Star Continent to support the orcs in their war to conquer the human race.

Three days ago, the eastern general Wang Usema, the southeastern general Wang Lavota, the southwestern general Wang Pramo, the due west general Wang McKaiyi, the northwest general Wang Misma, the due north general Wang Yasama, and the northeastern general Wang Gasma secretly arrived at Fubo Villa and held a meeting with the small moon general Wang Lomanle, and held several rounds of discussions on the current situation and future strategies and tactics.

The meeting at 10 a.m. on May 33 was the ninth meeting held by the generals of the eight parties in three days.
