Chapter 299: Engagement
The battle began first with air combat. Since the artillery had not yet come up, the helicopter gunships of the air squadron took on the task of bombing.
These helicopters hovered over the main human army, and the undead gargoyles did not dare to pounce on the melee combat, so they hovered high in the air and launched a wind blade attack far away.
The wind blades forced the helicopter gunships to advance and retreat.
Infrared missiles are ineffective against these cold stone goyves, machine gun bullets are of little use against these stone monsters, and bows and arrows are simply out of reach.
Xiang Ningxuan sneered, they were okay with Rong Zheng's army in this way, but he had Yu people under him.
One-on-one combat: Feathered people are no match for gargoyles at all. It is difficult for a long-range attack with a bow and arrow to hit a gargoyle that is maneuvering at high speed, and if it is approached, the feathered man will surely die. In order to avoid casualties among the feather people before, Xiang Ningxuan didn't let them rise into the air.
So much so that now more than a hundred gargoyles are so arrogant that they run to the head of the main force of the feather people to spread wild, do you want to have a flying dragon riding face?
"Then I'll tell you how the Wyvern Riding Face lost!"
With Li Weili's order, more than a thousand feathered people rose into the air at the same time. If you can't reach it on the ground, you can fly to the sky and have a range of it, and you can launch an arrow array attack with ten times the number of feathered people, and the dense arrows make it impossible for gargoyles to avoid it.
Nearly fifty of the golden arrows with the flame of the sun were shot down in a single attack, and the other gargoyles could only scatter and escape.
"Woohoo!" In the midst of the whistling, a golden fighter led more than a dozen Sky Raiders to swoop through the gray fog, and the two missiles directly shot down the two gargoyles. This golden fighter is the hero of the Star Spirit Reconnaissance Plane, Moyo, a new member of Shen Rui's evolutionary unit.
The other Sky Raiders opened fire as well, shooting down seven or eight more gargoyles.
This air force unit was not in love with war, and immediately after the first blow, it pulled up and detached, and after making a big circle, it launched another flying attack.
The Gargoyle can force the helicopter to not come out, but there is simply nothing it can do against a high-speed maneuvering enemy like the Skyraider. They lost half of their number, and they only happened to crash into a Skysnatcher.
Gargoyles are not made from corpses, the raw materials are insufficient and the difficulty of making them is not low, and the undead natural disaster has not been made much so far, and it has lost seventy or eighty heads at once, and it is no longer able to bear it.
The remaining gargoyles did not dare to rise into the air, and all of them retreated back into the cover range of the psychic tower.
While fighting in the air, both sides on the ground use ultra-long-range attacks and defensive spells to attack each other like offensive and defensive drills. However, there are not many ultra-long-range attack methods on both sides, and most of the damage is absorbed by various means of protection, and no damage is done.
At this time, the three outermost psychic towers were bombarded by the ultra-long-range fire of the elite regiment, and the undead troops deployed in the outermost part lost cover.
The feathered people, who had already risen into the air, took the opportunity to suppress the previous wave of firepower and shot hundreds of undead.
Gardin's troops had to retreat slowly under the command of the necromancer, but the zombie skeletons were stupid and clumsy, and a simple retreat was a mess.
During the air battle just now, Xiang Ningxuan rubbed a few rounds, and seeing this situation, he decisively photographed a mountain giant in front of him, and ordered: "The elite group is free to attack." The Zoe Regiment Mo Sword Soldiers stayed, and the other battalions charged! Dead wood clumps followed. ”
In the previous battle with Dacrell, these Mo knife soldiers carried a big knife more than three meters long, rushed into the enemy formation in a mess and used the Mo knife as a hammer, slashing and killing indiscriminately, and the undead chopped a lot, but also caused more than 30 incidents of accidental injuries to friendly soldiers.
It turns out that the Modao Soldier is a class that requires skill and cooperation, and is not suitable for this kind of chaotic warfare.
"Woo~" The long horn trombone sounded, which was the signal for the half-orcs to attack. More than a meter long, the horn is an endemic beast from the Orc homeland, and the sound of the horn can travel for kilometers without attenuation, accompanied by a blood-boiling soul fluctuation. It is the only long-range communication means for the orcs, whether it is gathering, charging, or sacrificing, it is to blow this kind of horn. As for retreat, it's in the orc's dictionary...... Well, they don't even have a dictionary, and the orcs don't have the concept of retreating.
The heavily armed orcs, who had no long-range attack methods, had been waiting impatiently for a long time after watching the long-range attack. As soon as he heard the sound of the horn, he immediately rushed forward with a scream.
Chen Qing personally led the half-orcs holding the tower shield in front, and the half-orcs holding maces and sledgehammers followed closely behind, first jogging in small steps, and then slowly accelerating the charge. This is the result of a month's training for the orcs, who had previously been charging in a swarm of swarms.
The half-orc warrior Lorcan did not rush forward, but bluffed and drank, and it took a lot of effort to stop the three hundred Mo sword soldiers.
Naturally, the elite group is the old rule here, and the nuclear bomb meteorite will hit him first. The summoning class puts all kinds of minion creatures on the front line and uses them as cannon fodder to attract firepower. All kinds of protective shields for auxiliary professions, and the status buff is sprinkled like money.
The legal professions on the undead side are also not to be outdone, and group curses such as aging, chaos, and fear continue to fall.
The melee forces of the two sides have not yet made contact, and the French forces are already fighting each other. The colorful spell effects set off the magnificent fantasy of the entire battlefield.
The feathered troops forcibly pressed up against the defensive fire, and launched a fire suppression on the enemy's French troops.
"Whew!" Xiang Ningxuan photographed Templus in the charging queue, and its battle cry effect was a 100% acceleration for all units in the range. However, this range is optional, as long as you choose his summon point at the friendly army, you can avoid the embarrassment of speeding up with the enemy.
"Boom!" The two armies soon collided, with tall, strong, heavily armored orc warriors colliding with equally tall flesh golems.
Steel and flesh engage in a fierce confrontation. Flesh and bones are constantly shattered by maces and sledgehammers, while magically enhanced mutant bone claws tear through steel armor. In an instant, there were a lot of casualties.
It stands to reason that flesh and blood can't fight steel, but this world is so unscientific. Those flesh and blood puppets are all Gadin's proud works, whether it is strength or attack and defense, they are no worse than heavy orcs. Moreover, these magical creations are not afraid of life and death, and bloodthirsty and ferocious are even better.
This collision of steel and flesh is evenly matched.
But this balance of power did not last long before it was broken. There was a dazzling light on the battlefield, it was Tirio Fortin, Lafayette, and the Ashbringer in his hands. The golden figure was as unstoppable as the god of war in the gray-black army of the undead. The flesh puppets that could carry heavy orcs could only wail and turn to ashes in front of him.
Xiang Ningxuan rushed to the front line like him before, and he didn't feel anything. Now, standing in the rear and watching from a distance, you can feel the strength of Galeries Lafayette. The surging power of the light involuntarily terrified the brainless undead.
The originally flat battle line was forced to open a gap by Ferdin, and the surrounding orcs were encouraged by it, and all of them were demoralized, and roared wildly to knock the flesh puppets into slag.
