Chapter 180: Airdrop
I have to say that Octavier's plan is very good, it is enjoyable to give the enemy's vanguard a head-on attack or something, and it can completely disrupt the opponent's steps to buy enough time for the reinforcements to arrive. Things do seem to be going according to the girl's script, and everything seems to be going well, except for the enemy tanks fighting back and a small number of ineffective artillery pieces joining in the fun.
Until the opposing infantry took out the anti-armor special bazooka from the car in which they were riding. It stands to reason that this bazooka is not specifically used to deal with tanks, the original man-made monsters in the Razfeld plane are the main force in the army, and the enemy soldiers only use the weapons that were originally used to attack monsters on tanks with the same rough skin and thick flesh.
The armor-piercing effect is not very good, and the number is not very large, and this newly developed weapon is still in a state of experimental exploration, otherwise the eldest princess who had eaten a shot on the city wall before would not have nothing to do. However, it was enough to contain the troops under the girl's command, and it was a great threat to the thin-skinned armored vehicles, so after seeing that there was a high risk of battle damage if she continued to advance, Octavir decisively ordered the troops to reverse and return.
Then there should be no problemβHer Royal Highness the Eldest Princess had just thought this, and was about to find an opportunity to quietly breathe, when a strange dull humming sound suddenly reached the girl's ears, a sound that was completely inaudible when the previous constant shelling and explosions were frequent.
It seems like...... The voice came from the sky? Octavier looked up in confusion, and sure enough, he saw a number of nearly ten or so flying planes in the blue sky, and judging from the round and fat shape of the other party, it was definitely not a fighter.
As a recent rise of flying machinery, the empire did not prohibit local lords from owning airplanes, but they were not allowed to set up factories to build their own, and they were also strictly forbidden to have military aircraft, and the lords could only buy slow and fat unarmed transport planes from the royal family for civil aviation or commerce.
However, that didn't stop the careerists from magically changing the plane they had spent so much money that they didn't even know their own mother, and although it was still an ordinary transport plane in terms of appearance, it was completely impossible to say what its interior and performance would look like - yes, like some kind of magical tank with five pairs of load-bearing wheels that has become completely obsolete but really wants to fight, and its combat performance is absolutely jaw-dropping.
Charlotte also rushed to the tank that Octavier was riding on at this moment, stepped on the turret with her and looked at the group of planes in the sky and said: "Your Highness, it should be the enemy's plane, the other party ignored us who were fighting with their own troops and flew directly towards the pass, is it planning to bomb there?"
It is no secret that the lords of various places secretly converted transport planes into bomb-carrying bombers, and although the royal family has banned it, it has been repeatedly banned, and after the invasion of the Alliance, it has not even paid attention to the verbal prohibition. Now that the three lords have formed a coalition army, it is naturally possible to concentrate their small number of planes and use them, as for how terrifying is the bombing of a certain number of aircraft groups......
The Alliance, who had never been able to advance even a step outside the city of Ledana, said that they were well aware of this, although the main force of air attacks against them was not bombers, but the dragon mounts of Her Highness the Eldest Princess.
After looking up at the group for a moment, Octavier shrugged his shoulders and replied without much concern: "It doesn't matter, due to the terrain, the enemy can't risk lowering the altitude and flying in the mountain pass, and the accuracy of the high-altitude bombing is really impressive, and most of them won't cause too much damage to the pass." Even if a few bombs are lucky enough to hit the target, Nangong Rong is still there. β
"Well, that's right. β
ββββββββββββββββββI'm the dividing line for changing lensesββββββββββββββββββ
Unlike Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, who didn't care at all, when Nangong Rong found the group of machines above his head, his whole face turned white instantly, and he felt as cold as if he had fallen into an ice cave for thirty-nine days. Of course, despite the rather bad premonition in his heart, the boy still had a little luck and thought that things would not necessarily go in the worst direction.
However, there are still some things that need to be done, such as intercepting these unguarded fat birds halfway.
Therefore, Nangong Rong hurriedly raised his hand and patted his cheap sister on the shoulder: "Wei Yin, I'm sorry I can trouble you to run away? It may not be interesting to deal with those transport planes without escorts, but you can't let them run around overhead." β
"No problem, just leave it to me. "The little girl's power armor in the Lazfeld plane has always been an air combat suit, because the lack of ground attack capability is only relative, and now there is Nangong Rong's puppet to supplement, the girl only needs to ensure air supremacy," keep them all into roast chickens within a minute. β
Power armor can have an absolute advantage in jet fighters, let alone against this kind of ancient and bulky propeller transport aircraft? So after Lin Weiyin took off with confidence, Nangong Rong also felt a lot more relaxed, and his stiff and cold body began to gradually warm, as if the matter had been controlled and resolved.
Even if the enemy really has the advanced consciousness and gathers the strength to do so through the alliance of the three families, the transport plane without an escort can still only become Lin Weiyin's target, and it will not play any role at all. For the first time in his life, Nangong Rong thanked the royal family from the bottom of his heart for the high-pressure restrictions on various places, otherwise there would be a large group of dozens of planes overhead, and if there were fighter jets in the middle, even if it was all propeller old planes, it would be enough to keep the cheap sister busy for half a day.
Bright flames burst out from the side windows of several transport planes, and bright red tracks rushed straight to Lin Weiyin, who quickly climbed high school, which was the self-defense firepower of the planes.
The effect was almost equal to nothing, the shield on the surface of the little girl's armor only shook a few times, and she herself didn't even have the interest to dodge, and continued to approach the other party firmly under the frantic fire of these heavy machine guns. It seems that the girl is not going to use the missiles that carry a limited number of them, and she is probably going to use melee weapons such as aerial scalpels to get the enemy planes down.
It's purely a blatant bully.
But this time Lin Weiyin was a little too much, but this was also something that Nangong Rong and the rest of the people did not expect, and everyone was not mentally prepared for it.
I saw that the two transport planes led by them suddenly opened the tail hatch without warning, and then what jumped out of it was not a person, but some kind of green monster with bat wings, which looked a bit like a hairless goat, with only one horn on its head, shining with a crystal-like luster, which was very eye-catching.
Nangong Rong's body that had just warmed up instantly froze into ice cubes again, not because of these old uncontrolled demonic beasts from the previous version, but because of the way the enemy used the transport plane, and the matter really turned into the situation that the boy was most worried about.
The pass is indeed easy to defend and difficult to attack, but the key is that the defenders are seriously under-manned, even if they can use the terrain to block the enemy in the mountain pass, they can't prevent the enemy from the sky behind them.
That's right, the boy thinks that only a few people like himself and the eldest princess can hold the pass, and the only thing to be wary of is the airdrop battle. However, this tactic was a bit too advanced for the Razfeld plane, and he had never heard of anyone who had trained paratroopers, so the boy always felt that he was worrying about it - but it turned out that he was really superficial.
It is true that ordinary infantry can become paratroopers with a parachute on their backs, but there is no similar problem with winged monsters. Even if their stamina can only do short-distance flights, even if there is no one to control and direct them after landing, they will act indiscriminately and cannot form a cooperation, but they can still play a role on the battlefield, not to mention that the target is still a dilapidated pass with few troops that has been tossed by robbers and inner ghosts.
In addition, it is ironic to say that the royal family strictly controls the magic spring from the lords, forcing them to use magic crystals and other things instead of the magic spring, and as a result, they inadvertently avoid the infection and influence of the abyss by these guys' magic beasts. In other words, there is not a single demonic beast under the royal family's command now, but those capable lords have a certain number of demonic beasts in their hands.
Of course, it's all the old style of no one controlling the interior, after all, the controllers are all in the hands of the royal family. But even if it is the old style, it is still a magical beast, and it is still superior in numbers, and it immediately surrounds Lin Weiyin, who rushed too hard and can't control her speed, and entangles the girl so that she can no longer pose any threat to the transport plane.
There are no guards for the fart, and these fat birds have their own guards in their stomachs!
Taking advantage of Lin Weiyin's being entangled and flawless, the tail hatches of the remaining transport planes also opened, and two other magical beasts with different styles jumped out immediately, and in a blink of an eye, they filled the small half of the sky above the girl's head.
"Don't worry about those demonic beasts, come back!" Seeing this, Nangong Rong hurriedly shouted at the cheap sister who was in a hurry in the air, "Wait for them to land on the ground and then fight, so that I can use the puppet to cooperate with you." β
Lin Weiyin, who had been hit by the magic bullet launched by the horn on the top of the goat's head, was about to hug her head and swooped down immediately when she heard this, not that these flying sheep were powerful, it was just that there were too many of them. If someone cooperates with the little girl so that she can get away, a few shells can wipe out the monster, but the key is that no one can cooperate with her.
Nangong Rong was also hurrying to make a puppet mixed with metal and cement from the fragments of nearby damaged artillery and guns, he didn't know the importance of quantity, but it was precisely because the other party had too many of them that the young man did it on purpose.
Because the boy can't guarantee that his puppet will definitely be able to block the enemy's demonic beasts, if one or more demonic beasts successfully rush to Nangong Rong's side in the melee, wouldn't it be GG? Although the teenager felt that it would be more likely that the system would be specially opened for himself at a critical moment.
But to be reasonable, Nangong Rong intends to aspire to become an obscure glorious assistant instead of being targeted by the enemy for all kinds of fire-gathering hangers, and it is better not to let the golden retriever do it.
A large number of metal shards shimmered with bright violet light on the surface of the metal quickly gathered together, and finally combined into a Gundam ...... Naturally, it's impossible.,Although the boy also likes works of this kind of theme, he also knows that the protagonists in it are all specially opened.,So he chose a more simple and simple spider-shaped four-legged base.γThe upper part is a land combat MA shape with a rotating turret equipped with some barrels.γ
Maybe the puppet created by Nangong Rong out of thin air does not have long-range attack capabilities, but it is still no problem to restore his original function with ready-made things, but the cannonballs consumed are just the energy carried by the boy himself and the crystal sword.
After quickly getting into this mech, which was three points larger than a tank, Nangong Rong was not idle enough to be bored and made up some operating console for himself to pretend that he was driving the mesage to fight, and directly inserted the crystal sword into the pit that was intentionally left out at the time of manufacturing, and began to transmit energy to it.
In order to ensure the defense and firepower of the body, Nangong Rong did not plan to create other puppets as cannon fodder to entangle with the enemy's demonic beasts, and he couldn't stop them anyway. In addition, the opponent also has the ability to fly and attack from a distance, and if you want to fight against it, you must improve the performance and quality of the puppet, so it is estimated that more energy will be consumed or even wasted.
It has always been a problem to deal with enemies flying in the air on the ground, but what makes the boy feel fortunate is that the long-range attacks of those demonic beasts are not very powerful, and the terrifying thing that can destroy the entire city wall with a single shot is completely non-existent, which can be seen from the fact that they have surrounded Lin Weiyin for a long time but have never been able to break the girl's shield.
As for the defense of the Demon Beast itself, it is not as rough and thick as imagined, perhaps because of the defects caused by the failure to use the Demon Spring Manufacturing, or the consumption of the Demon Crystal is too powerful to burn money, so that the three lords invariably choose to cut corners, in short, unlike the old-style Warcraft that Nangong Rong has in his impression that is harder than a tank, these guys are basically small crispy skins with high attack and low defense - well, the attack height is naturally relative to the ordinary combat units of the Razfield plane.
In the previous grappling, even though Lin Weiyin spent most of the time defending and avoiding and did not make many counterattacks, she still knocked down some goats casually, which strengthened Nangong Rong's determination to build the MA body.
That's right, what is really needed to deal with this overwhelming and menacing crispy monster is not the same group of crispy cannon fodder to hedge against them, but an impregnable and powerful firepower battery with unlimited ammunition.
"So, let's get started. β
Before Nangong Rong could finish speaking, the nozzles of the six black guns on the top of the fat dundun's spider-shaped body immediately burst out with dazzling flames aimed at the sky; the big guy with a caliber of 88 mm as the main gun was not idle, and let out an earth-shattering roar, officially announcing the opening of the pass defense battle.
