Chapter 701: Mistakes You Should Not Make

If we want to say that in this surprise attack launched by the Elven Kingdom against the Abbaden region, the least damaged unit of the Abaden defenders is, of course, the chariot unit with one hundred and fifty self-propelled chariots.

The reason for this situation is, of course, not unrelated to the heavy armor of the chariot, the armor-piercing arrows of the elves are only effective against chain mail, and they are a bit reluctant against steel armor, not to mention that they want to work on chariots; And those new longbows and heavy arrows are not realistic to shoot through the metal shell of the chariot, which is much thicker than steel armor.

Although the rain of arrows in the sky caused extremely heavy casualties to the defenders of Abbaden, they were powerless against these new weapons that surpassed the existing war concepts on the continent of Erathia, and only a few chariots were destroyed due to the impact of the enemy's magical attacks.

It's a pity that in the face of the enemy above the sky, the role that these tanks can play is extremely limited, although the giant crossbow built into the tank has a certain air defense ability, and the range is also good, but due to the problem of angle and rate of fire, these weapons designed to be used in attacking fortifications and dealing with large targets cannot pose too much threat to the enemy at all, so that the existence of these tanks was once regarded as a strange ballista by the elven warriors who saw these strange guys for the first time, and did not pay too much attention to it.

However, this fierce battle has been going on until now, and these tanks, which have been doing nothing in the battle, have finally come into play.

Led by the barbarian Worzak, the chariots had temporarily changed crews, and hundreds of fully armed Imperial warriors were speeding towards an improvised warehouse that was under attack by the enemy.

The commander of the Imperial Warrior Force, that is, the Minotaur officer, temporarily lost his combat effectiveness due to his injuries, and Wozzak was ordered to be appointed as the new commander by the decisive Sogna to temporarily take over the command of the Imperial Warrior Force, and Sogna asked Worzak to gather the Imperial Warriors, join the chariot troops, and act as the vanguard of rescuing those magic materials, and take the first step to rescue some important magic materials that have very little stock but are indispensable for the construction of magic portals.

More than a hundred chariots, driven by the full force of the iron man, ignored the desperate interception of the silver Pegasus knights, broke through the enemy's blockade along the way, and rushed towards the target location at an astonishing speed.

When they were high in the air, the elven warriors didn't think that the enemy's weird-looking ballistae were anything special, but now that they landed, a group of elven warriors realized how amazing these strange ballistas were and how strange their appearance was compared to ordinary ballistas.

In the eyes of the elven warriors at this time, these strange ballistae made of steel of the enemy are no different from a small house at all - considering that the world where the Elasia continent is located, its war form is completely different from the hot weapon warfare on the earth, Chen Jian did not make too many requirements for its appearance or internal structure according to the tank manufacturing concept on the earth at the beginning of the design of these chariots, so these chariots are indeed similar to a small house in appearance under the design of Xiao Hesfa and Dominic.

Or it can also be said that Hesfa Jr. and Dominica simply designed their vehicles according to the idea of an ultra-small battle fortress.

Within the range that the iron man and power system machinery can bear, these tanks are not only exceptionally thick in armor, but also as large as possible, because the large volume means that the tank can carry more members, using those shooting holes on the tank to enhance the attack power of the tank, for now, these tanks have been improved after the Negan United War, about three meters high, about three meters wide, about seven meters long, need four iron men to drive, and also need eight special wheels to carry their weight.

It is worth mentioning that these eight wheels are also well protected by external armor plates, so as to minimize the damage to the wheels caused by the enemy and the vehicle can easily lose its mobility.

The front of the vehicle is equipped with three large ramming angles, and in addition to the many shooting holes on the sides of the vehicle, there are also many sharp blades on the outer wall, which not only make these self-propelled vehicles extremely hideous, but also make these vehicles extremely lethal when cutting into enemy cavalry or infantry groups at high speeds.

After seeing the appearance of these steel monsters clearly, none of the silver Pegasus knights would have the courage to block their path, and some of the silver Pegasus knights flying close to the ground were even more busy pulling up the height, but in the first wave of confrontation, the elves who did not know what kind of attack methods these steel monsters had still suffered a big loss.

The Imperial warriors are the elite of the Entagre army, and one of their biggest characteristics is that they are omnipotent, so to speak, among the various conventional weapons equipped with the Entagre army, there is nothing that they can't play with so many hands.

Therefore, after taking over some of the Evil Eye Marksmen as passengers on the chariot, these weapon masters did not sit idle on the chariot, and when approaching the enemy, they spontaneously used various long-range weapons, using the shooting holes on the chariot to launch a fierce attack on the enemy together with the Evil Eye Marksmen.

The Silver Pegasus Knights didn't expect the enemy to have such a hand at all, of course, this also has a lot to do with the fact that the Entagre Army's chariot was designed at the beginning, with some disfiring holes and baffles, and the Silver Pegasus Knights, who mistook the self-propelled chariot for a ballista, did not notice that there were many firing holes on both sides of the chariot at first, and they focused on the ramming angles in front of the chariot and the sharp blades on both sides, as well as the large firing holes for the giant crossbow at the top.

Then, when these silver Pegasus knights tried to use their superb archery and riding skills to attack the operators inside the chariot from the large shooting hole while avoiding the enemy's crossbow attack angle, they were all caught off guard by the Imperial warriors and evil eye archers inside the chariot.

Many of the Silver Pegasus Knights who dared to follow the chariot at close range lost their lives.

Of course, Wozzak joined the attack, pushing open the shield of the shooting hole in front of him, and then began to attack those who were within range of the shooting hole with a heavy repeating crossbow.

Although his shooting skills were not good, Wozzak's first blow today was still successful, a silver Pegasus knight who was pulling up the height outside the chariot and trying to use his speed to go around the front of the chariot and attack with a bow and arrow, he hit the silver Pegasus under him in the head with an arrow, and was hit so hard that the silver Pegasus fell to the ground with a grief, and the elven knight on it was caught off guard and rolled down with the dust, and then unfortunately was run over by another chariot.

This result made Wozzak very ashamed, because the young barbarian had been aiming at the elven knight himself, not the silver pegasus.

"Shame on you"

Muttering under his breath, the barbarian aimed again.

However, this attack did not last long, and since the elves had no good way to intercept the movement of the chariot troops of the defenders of Abbaden, the chariots quickly reached their destination.

Soon, however, Vořák dropped his heavy crossbow and drew his one-handed axe and steel shield pinned to his waist, and as soon as the chariot came to a halt and the rear exit opened, he rushed out first.

At this time, the location of Worzak and the others was a simple warehouse that had been burned due to the attack of the elven army, and these improvised warehouses were built to store those magical materials that were not easy to store in the open air, and the one in front of Worzak and the others was a warehouse specially used to store some key materials needed to build a portal.

Worzak knew exactly what would happen if he couldn't salvage enough supplies from the warehouse.

If the portal cannot be built, Tren will not be able to return to Negan quickly, and the Ofer region will also lose the important passage directly connected to Negan, so it will not be able to easily get support and assistance from Negan in all aspects, whether it is military or material.

At that time, the Entagri army in the Ofer region, which does not have an advantage over the enemy in terms of strength, will be locked in a bitter battle, and this is not the worst situation.

The fact that the Erathia Empire and the Elven Kingdom launched an attack on the Entagri Empire almost simultaneously was no secret among the Entagri army.

If Tren can't return to Negan as soon as possible, it means that the transportation system of the Entagre Empire based on one-way magic portals will be paralyzed for a considerable period of time, which means that the Entagre army cannot provide support to the Ofer region in addition to effectively providing support to the Bairders region, and only relying on a two-way portal with a limited number of people and the need to restore mana on its own cannot meet the needs of the current Entagre army.

In this way, in addition to Offer, Bairders' Entagre army will also fall into a rather passive situation, because although their forces are not weak, they have to block the attack of the Erathian army at the same time, and at the same time, they must also replace Negan, responsible for the necessary support of the smaller Oper front, until Tren breaks through the enemy's absolute interception and returns to Negan, this situation will not change.

However, by that time, the Entagre army had already lost the lead, and it would not be so easy to regain the upper hand under the onslaught of two strong enemies.

Of course, Vodzak did not want to see this happen, so as soon as he gathered his men, he rushed straight to this most important warehouse, but he did not expect that his action would give the enemy a rather conspicuous hint and let the enemy understand the specific location of the target they wanted to destroy.

The inexperienced savage made a mistake that should not have been made.

"It really helped me a lot."

Gru, the half-elf who had been watching the movement of the Chariot Unit of the Abaden defenders from high in the sky, couldn't help but show a faint smile on the corner of his mouth after seeing the other party's actions clearly.

(No state, I wrote 7,000 words, deleted more than half, and left such a little, and it was so late, alas)
