Chapter 844: Grenade Attack
Chapter 844: Grenade Attack
Shaka felt like he was covered in blood all over his body
What excites him so much are the grenades that are now in his hands.
Of course, the power of grenades Shaka has been seen, but unfortunately, due to the production volume, although the grenades began to be equipped with the whole army, more of them were distributed to the flying troops, and not many to the ground troops.
Although the Hulk unit is an "elite" unit, due to its "nature", the need for grenades is not so urgent, so it is not very distributed, such as Shaka's team, this time there is no grenade, and Shaka himself was only fortunate to "touch" so many times in the training some time ago.
These circumstances made Shaka regret, because unlike the other Trolls, Shaka was adamant that only Thorns could truly use their grenades in the ground forces.
What race can have the throwing skills and strength of Thor trolls like they do?
Thor trolls use grenades, which are definitely to be accurate, to "shoot" range, grenades are weapons that are inherently tailor-made for Thor trolls.
With grenades, Thor's trolls can charge into battle like warriors and inflict ranged face damage on enemies like mages, making them versatile on the battlefield.
Of course, these are just Shaka's personal thoughts, compared to him, other Thor trolls are more willing to believe in the power of those oversized maces in their hands, not every Thor troll has a heart like Shaka who wants to become a magician, and no one in the upper echelons of the Entagre Army seems to have thought of this yet.
For this reason, Shaka also planned to make a written suggestion to his superiors, he felt that as a member of the glorious Entagri army, he had the responsibility and obligation to make any suggestions that would help improve his combat power, but he had not yet figured out how to phrase it, this matter was "quite important" in his opinion, and he had to be cautious and formal.
"Hurry up!" On the side, Wozak saw Shaka holding a few grenades and giggling vigorously, and couldn't help but urge, and Shaka finally came back to his senses.
"Right now, right away!" Carefully putting away the grenade and pinching another one in his right hand, Shaka began to squint his eyes for the first target.
Strictly speaking, the passage where everyone is at this time is still relatively spacious, after all, it is the main passage, and the entrance part is built to prevent the existence of dragons from being smaller, but after going deeper, the internal space is much larger, although it is not enough to arrange troops, but the width and height are good.
It was for this reason that the Erathian army was able to build numerous defenses in these passages to resist the onslaught of the enemy.
Shaka chose a "shooting" attack position directly in front of his own troops as his first target, this "shooting" attack position was quite cleverly constructed, located above the passage, condescending, and hidden in the mountain, quite hidden, everyone walked all the way, but did not find it, until it was attacked, only to find that the enemy actually had such a "sinister" means.
At this time, among the dozens of "shooting" holes in this "shooting" position, the crossbow arrows were constantly "shooting" out like flying locusts, and occasionally there was some magic.
So Shaka plans to start from here.
He took his giant shield and came to the front of the group under the cover of other Thor troll warriors, and after choosing his position, he squinted at the enemy's position and estimated, then opened the giant shield in his left hand and waved it with his right hand.
With a snort, the first grenade was thrown out by him with great force, and the amazing force made the grenade move forward in an almost straight trajectory in the air, a distance that was difficult for other races, but this grenade jumped easily, and then slammed into the outer wall of the enemy's "shooting" position.
Failed, the collision-detonated grenade exploded on the outer wall with a brilliant blue "color" light caused by magic "potion", and the metal fragments in it also poured out in all directions, but did not cause any damage to the Erathian soldiers in the "shooting" position.
This situation made Wozzak frown, he glanced at Shaka, but saw that Shaka was holding the shield and turned back to give him a calm smile: "Hehe, the weight is too light, and the strength is not mastered well!" β
As he spoke, the Troll pulled out another grenade: "But this time it won't miss again!" β
The grenade flew out again, and this time, Shaka did not disappoint the crowd again, as the grenade flew through the air and finally landed accurately into one of the "shot" holes.
With a dull explosion, the originally dense crossbow bolt attacks in each "shooting" hole were paused.
"It's done!" All the soldiers of the Ntagari Army who witnessed this scene in the passage cheered, and Shaka himself smiled, but he kept taking out a grenade in his hand.
βοΌβ Wozzak was also "spirited", "Gather all the grenades!" β
On the other side, the "shooting" position of the Erathian Army, which was attacked by grenades, was already in a "chaos".
Of course, the soldiers of the Erathia Army have never seen grenades, although the Entagrei army has used this new type of weapon in the Bracada Kingdom, but of course they will not make a big noise, and the Bracada army, which has suffered a lot, will certainly not talk about this kind of faceless thing everywhere, so the Elasia Empire has not received much information about the grenade, they only know roughly that the Entagri army seems to have used some kind of special weapon in the battle against the Bracada Kingdom, but what kind of weapon it is, I don't know how powerful it is.
The first grenade did not hit the target, and although the Erathia Marksmen who were trying to attack the enemy heard the explosion, they did not pay much attention to it, the grenade was not large in size, and it was not conspicuous in the fierce battle, because they thought that the explosion that occurred on the outer wall of their position was the attack magic of the enemy magician.
The second grenade flew, and the soldier who was aiming his crossbow at the enemy in the attacked "shooting" hole noticed that something was wrong, so he flashed sideways in time, and the grenade that was supposed to hit him flew into the "shooting" position without hindrance, hitting another soldier next to the soldier who was busy reloading the "shooting" heavy crossbow with crossbow arrows.
The soldier who was unfortunately hit in the face immediately fell down with a scream and a bloody face, but the disaster had just begun, under the fierce collision, the device inside the grenade began to operate, and the two different "potion" water quickly "mixed", and then there was an explosion.
Due to the relationship of volume, there is not much "potion" in the grenade, and of course it will not cause any serious damage to the internal structure of the position with this level of explosion, but the lethality to the personnel is full, and the Erathia military god "archers" who are busy attacking the enemy have not yet "figured" what is going on, only to hear a loud noise in their ears, and a blue light in front of them was swept down by the metal fragments that came out with the explosion, so many people are huddled together, and the leather armor on their bodies is really not stronger than a piece of paper in the face of this kind of attack.
The soldiers of the Erathia Army were stunned by the enemy's strange attack, and their movements naturally slowed down.
They were in a daze, and suddenly Shaka's grenades shot one after another.
At the same time, deep in Arissanret, somewhere.
Catherine stared dumbfounded at a magical screen in front of her, unable to believe what she was seeing.
In the magic screen, after Shaka's team succeeded, Wozzak's team was starting to advance, and the Elasia Army defenses that were originally blocking them were pulled out one by one, and after discovering the benefits of grenades, this "elite" Ntagrean army began to use grenades to open the way, and behind them, more Ntagrean troops poured in.
In just a short period of time, this defensive node on the second line of defense carefully arranged by the Erathia Army was easily broken by the Entagri Army.
This kind of speed is completely beyond Catherine's imagination, and what makes it even more difficult for her to accept is that she doesn't even know what kind of means her opponent is using.
"What the hell is that?"
The Elasia "Empress" who didn't know what the grenade was was a little distracted, she watched the soldiers of the Entagrean Army rely on this magical weapon to attack the fortifications, and the defenders desperately fought back, but with little success, the tactics of the Entagrean Army were quite "outstanding", after clearing some of the "shooting" positions with "fine" long-distance throwing, they began to use the "shooting" killing angles that had appeared to approach other "shooting" positions, and then easily stuffed one grenade after another into these positions.
Catherine had never seen such a weapon.
What is that? Magic items? If so, how did the Ntagrean Army get this magic item? Why had such an effective weapon never been used by the Ntagrean army in previous battles?
One question after another made Catherine's mind uneasy, and she suddenly realized that this time the battle might be much more difficult than she had expected.
"Jian Chen, Jian Chen, how many means are you still hiding?"
Soon, however, Catherine regained her composure, for she had seen that the Ntagrean army had encountered new problems in the advance.
"Shooting" the position is only a part of the Elassian army's defensive strength, and the loss of the ability to suppress the opponent from a distance does not mean that the Erathia army has no other means.
The complex terrain is carefully designed, with all kinds of traps and traps, and even if there is no "shooting" position, this passage is still full of danger for intruders.
"Send the order to go down and let the ambush army in this passage attack, and annihilate this enemy army for me! Also, try to figure out what kind of weapon they're using! β
Pointing to the magic screen, Catherine gave orders to one of the heralds next to herald.
Originally, Catherine didn't want to use the ambush in the passage so quickly, but the enemy advanced too fast, she couldn't watch this important passage fall into the hands of the enemy like this, she wanted to recapture this passage, rebuild the defense line in it, and the enemy's strange weapons also made her very jealous, the sooner she "figured" the enemy's methods, she could make the right response in the subsequent battle.
The appearance of the grenade had too much impact on her defensive strategy.
At this time, Catherine was completely unaware that this Entagre Army unit that she was concerned about was actually shouldering a special mission, nor did she realize that this very important passage in her eyes was far more important than she thought in this war.
Catherine didn't know that one of her orders at this time was, to some extent, a sabotage to the ongoing plans of the Entagri army.
And Worzak and the others and the other Entagre troops who later attacked the passage also followed Catherine's order, and once again found that their own side was in a rather disadvantageous situation.
They had only been pushing forward for a short time before they had to slow down.
Because in front of them was a dangerous passage full of all kinds of traps, so they stopped, and then sent some of the "elites" to clear the way.
As a result, they soon discovered that the biggest threat they faced at this moment was not these hidden traps, visible and invisible, but the hidden "holes" used by the enemy to ambush their troops.
Tibetan soldier "holes", there are Tibetan soldier "holes" everywhere, and they are also large Tibetan soldier "holes".
The exits of these Tibetan "holes" are everywhere, on the walls of the passage, on the ground, and even on the top of the passage, from time to time, with the sound of some kind of mechanism, a swarthy "hole" opening is opened, and then, an unknown number of Erathia soldiers will fish out of it, roaring and waving all kinds of weapons, and slaughtering into the passage, setting off a bloody storm in the attack force of the Entagre army.
The Ntagrean army, which rushed into the passage and had to stop due to the traps, was caught off guard and was quickly cut into several sections by these sudden enemies, and the two sides immediately began a life-and-death "hand-to-hand" fight.
This is a "hand-to-hand" combat without any skills at all, narrow space, crowded crowds, martial arts have lost their due effect, the warriors on both sides are slashing and slashing opponents in the most primitive way, shouting and killing, shouting, screaming, moaning, gold and iron "crossing" sounds, and the muffled sound of weapons breaking into "flesh" and bones, at this moment, in this passage, "crossing" weaves a battle "symphony".
This was the first real head-to-head battle between the two forces since the Battle of Arissanret, and it was also the most tragic battle on the battlefield since the beginning of the war.
Every second, a large number of soldiers on both sides fell, and the originally dry ground was soon filled with blood and liquid of different colors, and the air began to be filled with a strong smell of blood, but none of them were willing to take the initiative to show weakness, they all had reasons to fight, and they also had the corresponding courage, and they fought a life and death battle that was not large in scale but was absolutely tragic enough to move people in this previously unknown passage for their respective goals.
The mages and archers have become insignificant in this battle, and there is no time for them to slowly chant incantations or bend bows and arrows in such a "melee" battle, which is enough time for the opponent to kill them seventeen or eighteen times, and the warriors in armor have become the protagonists of the battlefield, all kinds of cold weapons are wielded in their hands, blood and sweat flow on them.
The Elasia army that launched the raid undoubtedly had a tactical advantage, they occupied the favorable terrain, hit the opponent by surprise, they successfully divided, surrounded, and planned to break each one, but the Entagre army was not weak, although it was caught off guard, but they had an absolute advantage in equipment, far more "sophisticated" armor and weapons than their opponents, so that they also had a very strong combat effectiveness in adversity.
Moreover, compared to the Erathia Army, the Entagre Army also has another advantage, that is, the composition of the troop race, those "elite" warriors from various strong races, have a strong physique that the human soldiers of Erathia cannot match, as well as a variety of racial abilities.
The battle lasted for a long time, and both sides continued to invest their troops, but until the end, neither side dared to assert that they had won the battle, in fact, the reason why this battle was finally ended was really inexplicably embarrassing for both sides of the "warring" - the passage was blocked by a large number of corpses.
Yes, the passage was blocked by a large number of corpses, when these corpses reached a certain height on the ground, the "warring" both sides were unable to move in the passage, after all, no matter how big the passage was, it was no better than the field battlefield, a large number of soldiers on both sides were killed, and they could not be transported away in a timely and effective manner, and in the end it could only be such a result, of course, it was not only this passage that happened, the Entagre army launched a total of three rounds of offensive against Arissanret that day, In total, dozens of passages within Arissanret were severely blocked.
So both sides had to helplessly stop temporarily, and began to clean the passage they occupied, the two sides tacitly did not make a fuss about these corpses, although this may have a significant impact on the battle situation, but that kind of means is really a bit inferior, whether it is Chen Jian or Catherine, it is not that style, and the situation in which the two sides are located has indeed not reached the extent that they have to use this means to achieve victory.
The passage attacked by VoΕΎak and others was very seriously blocked, and the passage was finally occupied by the two sides of the "warring" war, you have me, I have you, relatively speaking, the Ntagrei army was in a relatively unfavorable situation, because a considerable part of their army was surrounded by the opponent inside the passage, unable to move, not only had wolves in front of them and tigers in front of them, but also could not get support.
"Sure enough, it's still like this!"
After receiving the report, Morriel couldn't help but sigh softly.
"If it doesn't turn out like this, that's a strange thing!" Jian Chen also smiled helplessly, "It's just that I didn't expect that even Wozak and them were trapped in it, fortunately, we were prepared, I hope they can last a little longer, but I don't know if they have aroused Catherine's suspicions, in case our real plan is discovered by Catherine, then these many sacrifices are meaningless!" β
Hearing this, Moryl smiled proudly: "Even if she is really suspicious, what does it matter?" If such a situation really happens, I will make a plan, first make a "chicken" flying dog jump in the Erathia Empire, so that this outdated empire will lose face, and then it is not too late to withdraw the army! When the time comes, I'll see how Catherine can hold on to the situation! β
