At this time, Oscar also found that a ship-shaped aircraft was blocking the front, and there were nearly a hundred giant eagles circling around, knowing that the surprise attack had been seen through by the other party, so he simply lifted the stealth order to attack the whole army, anyway, the group of giant eagles on the opposite side couldn't stop the half-dragon army.

"Fire!" Lyudmila disarmed the fire control system, and the eight cannons turned their muzzles to point at the half-dragon army that was approaching within a thousand yards on the opposite side, spewing electric light in a rapid and sonorous rhythm, weaving a shining and deadly net in the air.

The fusiform armor-piercing bullet wrapped in the lead core suddenly swept over like a storm, and several half-dragon warriors flying at the forefront were caught off guard, the leather armor and dragon scales were instantly torn apart by the bullet, and a large ball of blood burst out from the wound, and the broken limbs were splashed all over the sky.

Faced with this unexpected head-on attack, the half-dragon in the air couldn't help but fall into a panic, flapping its wings and rushing to escape from the muzzle, and collisions with each other often occurred.

Blue Dragon General Oscar clenched a large shield made of hundreds of pieces of mythril pieces of different sizes, colors, and textures riveted and patched with his left hand to block the oncoming cannonballs. The 2-pound armor-piercing bullet that could easily shoot through the dragon scales hit his seemingly tattered shield, and bounced off with a ding, but there was not even a single spot on the shield.

"Fuck a bunch of idiots! Huddle together and wait to be a target? Don't let it go! Oscar yelled with his shield. The half-dragons under his command woke up like a dream, abandoned the original formation, and dispersed, each looking for an opportunity to cross the fire blockade and go straight to the airship.

The firepower network of eight cannons was not enough to seal the sky tightly, and although the half-dragons continued to be shot and fell, more half-dragons still broke in. Aurora, who was escorting the airship, let out a long roar and led the Giant Eagle Wing to intercept the half-dragon.

Roland stood in front of the highland command post with his hands in his hands, watching the tragic battle of flesh and blood flying in the air, his face was extremely solemn. Anyone can see that the Half-Dragon Clan not only has an overwhelming advantage in numbers, but also significantly surpasses the Giant Eagle in individual combat power.

Roland recalls that when the Air Force was formed, Zehir suggested to him that the "Eagle Regiment" should be copied, that is, the air combat unit was composed of a mixture of eagles and knights, with a few of the strongest eagles to carry the knights, and the knights had to strictly control their own weight, and also practiced marksmanship, archery, and most importantly, the skill of riding the eagle.

At that time, he hesitated for a long time, and finally did not take Zehir's suggestion, and decided that the newly formed aviation wing would be composed entirely of giant eagles, and the traditional combat unit of the "Eagle Cavalry" should be abolished.

There are two main reasons for this decision. First of all, the cost of training the Giant Eagle Knight is too high, the loss is too great, it is the Giant Eagle that can fly, but the Knight will not, and the slightest accidental fall in the air will kill him; Secondly, he was very skeptical about the usefulness of the Eagle Cavalry profession. The giant eagle itself has good combat effectiveness, and its intelligence is similar to that of humans, so it can completely complete most combat tasks independently without the knight on its back, and carrying the knight hinders the mobility of the giant eagle and is cumbersome.

Of course, the Eagle Cavalry is not really flashy, the cavalry's spear can play a certain role in air combat, and the heavy crossbow can make up for the lack of long-range firepower of the giant eagle, and when performing special missions such as "airborne", "decapitation" and "rescue", human flexible hands have the advantage that the giant eagle cannot replace. But Roland felt that these were secondary, and that the newly formed air force had limited resources and could not cover everything, and that it had to meet two missions first: one was to escort the mothership "Dawn", and the other was to carry out long-range bombing missions. On the premise of satisfying the above requirements, in line with the principle of how quickly and better it is, it seems reasonable to cut off the formation of the Hawksmen. Since then, the Giant Eagle has performed better in the fight against pirates and the bombing of the Giant Demon Island than before the reorganization, which seems to confirm that the Eagle Cavalry is not a necessary unit.

However, the situation of the battle over the heights of Longjiao today has completely changed. Roland found himself underestimating the importance of aerial combat by valuing the Eagle's bombing prowess in the past, and if it were compared to the military planes on Earth, the Giant Eagle could successfully play the role of a "bomber", and its fighting ability would also have the upper hand against low-level monsters such as the "Flying Shark". However, the Blue Dragon Corps is not a waste wood like the Flying Shark, and the giant eagle obviously can't beat the half-dragon in a one-on-one aerial fight, not to mention that the number of enemies still has an overwhelming advantage.

The only advantage of the Giant Eagle over the Half Dragon is that it is more agile and more mobile, but due to the lack of long-range attacks, excellent air mobility is only reflected in evading enemy pursuits.

If the eagle had carried cavalry armed with spears and heavy crossbows on its back, would the situation have changed? But then the Giant Eagle loses its speed advantage, and it is likely that the gains outweigh the losses......

Seeing that the giant eagle had lost the upper hand in the duel with the half-dragon, Roland frowned, and his mood was a little depressed.

This air battle has exposed much more than a single problem. It is understandable that the Giant Eagle Wing could not stop the Blue Dragon Corps, and the ground air defense batteries were even more uncompetitive, and the ping-pong was lively, except for creating a miasma full of black smoke and did not receive much success.

At this time, the defense line formed by the airship and the giant eagle was already showing signs of collapse, and the powerful half-dragon broke through the blockade one after another and broke into the sky above the high ground, diving down under cannon fire, throwing bundles of alchemical gunpowder down. The blasting barrel landed on the position and exploded violently, the rising flames lit the train cannons not far away, and a railroad track was blown up and thrown into the distance.

In the smoke, a half-blue dragon troll roared and swooped down on a train cannon, and the Koras warriors guarding the cannon raised their bows and crossbows to shoot into the sky, trying to stop the monster from approaching. The dense rain of arrows tore through the air and rattled, shooting at the half-dragon troll, but the monster inherited the troll's immortal body, and the dozens of arrows in its body did not change color, and each hand carried a large blasting barrel, like a blue meteor crashing straight into the train cannon.

"What does that guy want to do, is he going to kill himself?!" Kafta had never seen such a lethal style of play, and was shocked that the ground was bloodless.

"Run!" Jack dragged Kafta into a pre-dug bomb shelter and prayed to Gar Glitter with his head in his hands. Kafta had never seen such a strange creature as a "half-dragon troll", and Mr. Dwarf was no stranger to it, and he knew that this guy relied on a powerful regenerative physique and was not afraid of death, holding two large barrels of alchemical gunpowder and rampage to accurately blast the train cannon, after which he himself could heal again even if he was blown to pieces.

On the position, there were still many artillerymen who had not yet had time to hide in bunkers, watching the unbeatable half-dragon troll pounce down, and could only wait in despair for the train cannon to be destroyed.
