Chapter 650: Artillery salvo
After listening to the specific requirements of the real-time mission, Lu Jun knew that these two tasks were even more difficult.
As for why there is no penalty for failure in these two missions, it is because as long as the road army cannot hold the Zerg army, then he will lose a magic tower at least and die at worst, and there is no heavier punishment than this......
At this time, the army of praying mantis in the sky also reached the range of the fire guards, and I saw that there was no need for the road army to give orders, and eight hundred fire guards opened fire at the same time.
With the crisp sound of "da-da......", tens of thousands of energy bombs formed the first wave of firepower barrage, flying towards the army of praying mantis in the sky, followed by the second wave, the third wave......
Because the army of praying mantis in the sky did not expect that humans still had automatic weapons that could be used, they did not react at once, and they had no time to dodge.
In addition, they were very dense when they flew, and they were hit by a barrage of firepower, and in an instant, thousands of double-bladed mantis and shadow mantis were knocked down.
Although the number of praying mantis is relatively large, there are more than 100,000 of them, and one or two thousand dead or injured will not hurt the muscles and bones.
But the fireguards had significantly more bullets, still firing at a rate of twenty rounds per second, and if the praying mantis army didn't change formation immediately, they would not be able to withstand the number of them.
Seeing this, the Blade Mantis Emperor also knew that the humans below were a little tricky, so he immediately dispersed his subordinates and sped up their advance.
As for why they appear here, it is because of the characteristics of the second blood mist, which allowed their clan members to evolve into a complete body, and their combat effectiveness has been greatly increased.
So in order to expand the power of the Zerg, they directly began to clean up and plunder the surrounding resources a few days ago, as long as they are non-Zerg creatures, they will be attacked.
But when they finished sweeping the surrounding area of more than two hundred kilometers, the Blade Mantis Emperor suddenly received a message for help from the Bug Clan, as if there were other racial forces that wanted to seize their Zerg territory.
After learning of this situation, of course, the Blade Mantis Emperor would not let it go, and immediately rushed over with a large army across more than three hundred kilometers.
In fact, these are just the vanguard units that take the lead, and the ground forces are still more than 100 kilometers behind.
But the Mantis Emperor felt that with their numbers and strength, the vanguard alone would be able to end the battle......
When the praying mantis of the other classes heard the order of the Blade Mantis Emperor, they immediately changed their formation and dispersed, each of them about five meters apart.
They were already numerous, and they were even more terrifying when they were dispersed, taking up almost the entire sky, making it difficult for the fireguards to hit them so easily.
In addition, the Shadow Mantis also activated its ability to become invisible for a short period of time, disappearing from the sky and interfering with the fire guards' fire.
With the passage of time, the army of praying mantis only paid the price of fifteen thousand to rush into the 300-meter range of the protective magic tower, and it is estimated that they will reach the road army and others in a few more sprints.
Seeing this, the road army knew that they could no longer let these praying mantis approach, and immediately raised their hands and waved their hands, signaling the rebels and the rebels' peripheral legions to open fire.
Under the order of the road army, more than 200 people in the defensive trenches quickly pulled the trigger and poured the bullets from the guns into the air, without even aiming, anyway, they couldn't aim from such a distance, as long as they emptied the ammunition as quickly as possible.
Although they don't have many people and the firepower network they create is dispensable, with the output of the firepower guards, it still has a little effect, at least the casualties of the praying mantis army have increased.
But the good times didn't last long, and when the army of praying mantis was less than two hundred meters away from them, some of the firepower guards suddenly stopped out, because the energy magazines were already empty.
In this case, the density of the firepower network is rapidly reduced, and it is no longer possible to suppress the army of mantises, so that the army of mantis can quickly approach forward.
Seeing that the output of the road army seemed to be insufficient, the Blade Mantis Emperor was overjoyed, and desperately let his subordinates rush forward, intending to take advantage of this opportunity to kill below in one fell swoop.
The shadow mantis in the invisible state also began to break away from the large army, preparing to rely on stealth to go around to the side of the road army and others, and then it could flank the road army and others with the large army.
However, when the praying mantis army was only one hundred and fifty meters away from Lu Jun and the others, Lu Jun did not panic and laughed, and with a thought, he directly activated another 800 pull-out artillery.
I saw that in the next moment, all the pull-out guns raised their muzzles one after another, aiming at the praying mantis army above.
Looking at the dark muzzles, the Blade Mantis Emperor had a bad premonition in his heart, wanting his subordinates to disperse a little more.
But before it could give the order, the artillery was fired, and only a "boom, boom, boom......" sound was heard, and 800 energy shells flew into the air in an instant.
Immediately afterwards, these energy cannonballs exploded around the army of mantises, producing violent firelight and shockwaves, and the double-edged mantis that were only affected by the cannonballs fell like dumplings.
Although the pull-out artillery is also unable to catch invisible enemies, the attack after the shell explodes is ranged, and as long as it is within this range, it will be injured whether it is invisible or not.
Therefore, those shadow mantis that turned on the invisibility ability did not continue to move forward, but died faster because they rushed forward......
In fact, pullout artillery is generally used on the ground and can attack the enemy within 1 km to 10 km.
However, in case of emergency, the pull-out gun can also be used as an "anti-aircraft gun" because the firing port is too high.
It's just that in this case, the range and accuracy of the pull-out artillery will be greatly reduced, so the road army has been waiting for the mantis army to approach before letting the pull-out artillery attack.
Under the full fire of the pull-out artillery, the problem of insufficient output of the fire guard was solved at once.
After only five volleys, the number of mantis troops above plummeted by 10,000, and they were forced back to 200 meters away.
Although the Wind Mantis created a lot of wind blades and storms to attack underneath during this period, their numbers were relatively small after all, and the degree of attack was limited, and they could only destroy a few firepower guards, and could not make the road army's side break their muscles and bones.
Seeing that the praying mantis army was temporarily suppressed, the road army took the members of the resistance army and the outer legion of the resistance army to change the magazines of the fire guards one by one, using this method to ensure that the fire guards could continue to output after the artillery was empty.
Feeling that his side not only suffered heavy losses, but was also forced to retreat farther and farther, the Blade Mantis Emperor couldn't help it, and directly turned on its stealth ability, disappearing into midair, preparing to kill it alone below, destroy those weapons, and open the way for its subordinates.
But what the Blade Mantis Emperor didn't know was that the Demon Eye of the Road Army had the ability to resist concealment, and every move of the Road Army after it was invisible could be seen clearly......
