Chapter 160: 'Half-Crossing and Attacking' (2 Changes) (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
It was a loud bang with which the earth shook and the mountains shook.
"Bang-"
A long, sharp sound of breaking wind pierced the sky.
The shell landed exactly less than fifty meters in front of Orgrim.
In front of him, the wooden bow of a former Kurtiras warship shattered, and a large number of wood chips turned into the scythe of death, harvesting all the lives of the orcs on the dock at the bow.
Large swaths of orcs were blurred with flesh and blood, and before they could scream, they fell to the ground or fell into the water.
The terrible cannonball pierced the bow of the ship, and the remnants of the momentum were still there, and it crashed into the High Elves' artistic, intricately carved white jade offshore dock.
The entire dock began to shake slightly, and a "click" sound spread from the depths of the dock, like the sound of a plaster sculpture being forcibly broken. The sound went from inside to out, from small to loud, followed by a crisp click.
A half-meter-wide crack on the four-meter-wide approach bridge appeared in everyone's field of vision, and this crack extended from under the offshore pier and pierced straight into the depths of the dock area along the approach bridge, as if tearing the entire Yangfan Harbor.
"Ryu—"
Two-thirds of the pier, a full thirty meters long, was connected to most of the approach bridge, and the orcs waiting to board the ship fell into the icy water.
"Ahhhh
"Help! I don't want to die! ”
"Water, ahem, I can't swim—"
The screams that had been boiling over from the first air raid suddenly went up a new level, and there were chaotic and noisy human voices everywhere, and the terrible sound wave could almost tear people's eardrums.
"Calm down! Calm down—"The Great Chief's loud voice has always been useful in the past, but this moment has lost its due power.
The worst thing an orc at knocking demon blood is calm.
They shoved and waved their weapons like crazy at the unseen enemy, causing even more chaos.
In the confusion, Orgrim caught a glimpse of a familiar and burly figure: "Kashdrak! Kashdrak! Take your Black Scar Clan out of the port first and arm in the harbor! ”
The Black Scar Clan is an ancient orc clan, and its combat power is really good.
Unexpectedly, Cashdrak refused: "Put away your filthy face, Orgrim! You've abandoned the sworn alliance Zujin and his trolls, the second-rate clans like Blue Feather and Broken Tooth Elephants, and now you still want to abandon the Blackscar Clan? No! Never! ”
"Nope! It's just ......," Orgrim subconsciously retorted.
"Don't lie to me! You can't do anything with that army called Stratholme! Recently, the number of prey caught every day has been decreasing! It's because the hunting grounds we control have become smaller! And also! Was Gul'dan really betrayal? Are the Black Hand Brothers really hunting them? "This rugged orc chief is clearly a little out of control.
When he loses his trust in the Great Chief, Orgrim says everything in vain!
"No, that'......"
"The Black Scar Clan will never stop! Our lives, take it ourselves! Kashdrak raised his arms and shouted: "Brothers, grab the ship!" ”
"Oooooooo
The Black Scar Clan's ship-grabbing behavior immediately deepened the chaos at the scene.
At this moment, more shells pierced the sky and exploded into the dock area in a high parabola.
It's so accurate!
With the exception of one shell that hit the side of a cruiser and splashed a six-meter-high column of water without causing substantial damage, the rest of the shells either landed on the battleship or hit the dock.
All the orcs were stunned, the huge crater stimulating their visual nerves.
As the shells shook the docks, more large cracks appeared, and tiny cracks that numbered more than ten times more began to appear on the ground, and the two offshore docks shattered into countless pieces in an instant, sinking underwater with the roar of the waves.
It's not so much that the cannon hits accurately, but that the timing of McDonald's attack is too spicy.
It was just the point when a third of the people were stuck on the ship.
In other words, militarily, this is more like the so-called 'half-crossing attack'.
Here, receiving the real-time communication from the operator acting as a scout, McDonald patted Willy on the shoulder: "Okay, I don't need to be so accurate next." Let your apprentice aim and fire casually. ”
Willy, the gunner, is a man who is full of gunnery talent!
With just the test gun near the Northland fortress, he was able to put this half-finished 105mm howitzer into his soul without a school shot.
No!
More than one shot.
It was he who had calibrated the satellite's five test cannons, all of which hit the target area.
This is not a direct target to be seen.
The location of the artillery regiment under McDonald is more than 5 kilometers southwest of Yangfan Port, and if Yangfan Port wants to come over, it must first make a big circle from the southeast, and the distance is more than 9 kilometers.
There was also a 100-meter-high hill on the shelling route, and the shells had to be fired in a zigzag trajectory to go around the hill and then fly to the port.
This kind of unstable shelling, if you raise it by one degree, there is a high probability that the shells will not know where to go.
Because the muzzle velocity of the howitzer is not fast, it is a curved fire, and the wind speed must be calculated.
In this day and age, this is definitely an artillery bombardment with an explosive degree of difficulty.
However, if you hit, you hit!
At this moment, the sky above the harbor seemed to be divided into two distinct sides, the central area was clear and bright, the clouds in the whole area reflected the red fire from the ground, and the surrounding area was a dark and dreary black curtain, as if the slightest convergence of the firelight would extinguish the light.
In fact, the war situation was very similar.
The shelling, which spread throughout the harbor, spread the heat and flames rapidly.
The only thing Ogrim was glad for was that there were not many of these huge cannons with an exaggerated range, adding up to five or six.
After the initial panic, the evacuation work can continue.
The key is, who goes to break the post.
Orgrim found the Bladewind Clan and the Whiteclaw Clan.
It turns out that historically, these two clans did not come to Azeroth. It's just that the Whiteclaw Clan was wiped out because of sympathy for Durotan and his Frostwolf Clan.
As a relatively capable first-line clan, they have been brought in the main force as the main force.
As for the order of the great chief, the two chiefs did not doubt him, and accepted the order a little humiliatingly. They were already lining up outside the port, turned the line and headed towards the port. Then they saw a large number of human soldiers starting to kill out of the woods.
The orcs didn't feel anything yet, and if there were human nobles, they would definitely scold Mai for being a big dog.
In order to preserve the physical strength of the soldiers, all the soldiers came in a carriage with their armor dressed up tonight.
They got out of the car nearly two kilometers away from the two clans, and the whole team, holding torches, slowly walked out of the woods in a straggler line.
The whole process is unhurried and not chaotic at all.
