Chapter 1090: Low-Altitude Patrol
At the same moment, Priest Eudora, who was looking at the crossing of the Ram River, could not believe that two thousand cavalry would be directly destroyed by two "bombs" falling from the sky.
However, she did not vent her anger on the fleeing Bindu cavalry, but sat in the camp with a gloomy face, watching her staff carefully ask them about the battle, and remained silent.
Some of the soldiers who fled back were still wounded, and they had just been pulled out by the priest from the pieces that had been inserted into their bodies, and after receiving divine healing, they had apparently recovered somewhat. However, the smell of blood in the room was still strong and abnormal, which made Eudora frown involuntarily.
"What the hell is going on?"
Seeing that the staff seemed to have summed up, she finally spoke.
"My lord, what flew overhead before seems to be a new weapon developed by Rasiman that can project some kind of aerial weapon down and inflict damage by exploding. Not even the 'Forbidden Demon Realm' can resist its damage..."
The staff explained for a long time, but Eudora was not surprised: "Those group of mages are not fools after all, if they can't study something counterproduct, I will feel strange." So— what do you think should be done?"
The crowd looked at each other, and one of the staff members held the metal triangular piece wrapped inside the bomb in both hands, handed it over, and said, "Your Excellency... We took a look at it, and this fragment penetrated the knight's armor, and according to the scene they described, many people were shot through their bodies on the spot, and even had their heads cut off - such power, ordinary shields or shields, I am afraid it is difficult to defend. ”
"That means you can only be beaten?"
Eudora predicted that Rasiman would have a way to deal with the "Forbidden Demon Realm", but she didn't expect that the other party would move out of this level of "big killing weapon" at once: she made back-hand preparations, but now she found that such preparations were obviously unable to deal with them.
"Priest, it may be difficult to defend against such bombs, but the strength of the enemy lies not necessarily in the bombs, but in their ability to soar freely in the sky... And without scruples. ”
The staff keenly grasped the core of the problem: "According to the report, when the cavalry rushed over, the 40,000-strong troops had completely formed a battle formation. This shows that they have long been aware of our intentions... My lord, if every move is watched by the enemy, I am afraid that we will not be able to win this war at all. ”
"Let's talk about countermeasures. The flying thing is at least a thousand meters high, and even if it flies at a low altitude of five hundred meters, it will be difficult for our magic or ranged weapons to hit accurately. ”
Eudora frowned, clearly troubled by the problem.
The staff obviously had a countermeasure, but the one who spoke looked around with some hesitation and said in a low voice, "Maybe... The cost will be relatively large. ”
"How can there be a war that does not pay a price?"
Eudora's seemingly thin fingers clenched into fists: "As long as you can solve the problem, you have to try no matter how much it costs!"
The next day, the new news reported by the reconnaissance plane reached the Sodrol headquarters in the inner city, which surprised him: "Speed up the river crossing? It seems that this guy still has hole cards..."
It stands to reason that after knowing that nearly 40,000 soldiers have entered Laxia City, normal people with the same number of about 40,000 soldiers will never choose to attack the city.
According to the law of the Cold Weapon Age, it usually takes seven to ten times the number to besiege the city directly. Sodrore dared to attack the city with an army of less than 2,000 men because he had thermal weapons and air supremacy - but at the moment the enemy did not look like he had thermal weapons, and the only explanation was that the other side had other support, so he was willing to take risks.
You must know that the army of 40,000 people does not come and leave when you want, and if you stay for one more day, it will be astronomical for people to eat and chew. Sodrore had the city of Laxia as a ready-made granary, but the other party's grain was transported from three nearby cities by a baggage force of nearly 8,000 men.
"What do you think?"
Turning back to his staff, Sodrol pointed to the map: "Intelligence shows that their mobile strength is not much, and after those Bindu cavalry are disabled, it is estimated that there will be no large-scale attacks." Then the security of the rear airfield should be considered a matter of concern - but the question now is, how exactly does the other side want to attack the city?"
Although the staff could not predict the prophet, based on the information of Kasri's subordinates before, they could roughly judge the way these people attacked.
But it was obvious that with this primitive and crude attack plan, it would not be a problem for Laxia City to defend it for ten years.
After discussion, the final decision can only be to "wait and see" - first, because the current information cannot judge more, and second, because the army of the Karen Kingdom is still in constant transportation, and even if you want to go out of the city to fight, there are not enough manpower to fight now.
Sodrore was not satisfied with this, and asked: "Then change the frequency and range of the reconnaissance planes and conduct low-altitude reconnaissance! I need to see more information - by the way, has the matter of the 'communication circle' installed on the plane been completed?"
The staff replied that it was being improved, but soon a soldier reported that the improved reconnaissance plane had just begun patrolling.
"Adjust the channel and see if you can talk. ”
Sodrore's expression suddenly became excited - the previous "communication array" only allowed the airborne troops to communicate with the artillery in the rear, and the command headquarters was not far from the artillery company, which only played a role in overall planning, but if this thing could be placed on the reconnaissance plane to communicate at any time, then it would be a huge improvement for the entire tactical system.
Of course, these ideas were put forward by Luo Di, and he also put forward the concept of "early warning aircraft", saying that in future battles, there may not be any need to invest tens of thousands of hundreds of thousands of army forces to slowly transfer to the destination: several squads provide coordinates, a team of fighters bombs directly according to the coordinates, and the early warning aircraft directly command and plan in the air, and see everything in real time...
As for the enemy, from the beginning to the end, they can only be beaten at all!
This method of warfare is simply something that Sodrore can hardly refuse.
So he couldn't wait to open the communication circle in front of him, took the channel scale handed by the staff, and adjusted it himself - the earpiece that was originally only noisy finally came with a "buzzing" roar, and Sodrol immediately heard the sound of the propeller on the reconnaissance plane, so he said: "This is the headquarters, Falcon, please report your location, over." ”
The pilot over there knew that someone would speak, but he didn't expect it to be Sodrore, but his psychological quality was obviously excellent, and he immediately reported: "This is Falcon No. 1, and it is currently patrolling above the South Ram River in Laxia City, over." ”
Sodrore was about to say something, when he suddenly heard footsteps behind him, and when he turned around, he saw that it was Roddy standing at the door with Merinthera and Nephi, so he turned around and wanted to salute, Roddy quickly waved his hand and said no: "The military situation is important, don't worry about me." ”
