Ninety-seven - the smoke of gunpowder at noon
"It is reported that the ships of the 3rd and 4th divisions have arrived in the outlying areas of the island. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ Info: Commander of the 3rd Division, do you want to launch special torpedoes immediately after they pass?"
"No, wait. Our goal is to maximize the use of those torpedo launchers. It's only once, but if we shoot all the bullets at the moment when they are pouring in, we can get breathing space for our side. Wait until thirty minutes after the war starts!"
It was the mediocre report of the members of the Technology Development Bureau under Ji Yuehua who sounded the horn of war.
Through the surveillance network set up by Ji Yuehua a long time ago, members of the Technology Development Bureau of the Coastal Defense General Headquarters accurately captured the whereabouts of the enemy and our two sides, and reported to Yakumo Azusa and Ji Yuehua respectively.
Then, half a minute after Ji Yuehua gave the latest order......
βββββββββ
The mechanical noise of the ship as it sailed was the first to sound, and the roar of the beast that shattered the sky and the earth came to everyone's ears from afar.
The roar of thousands of beasts is like the screams of people in the event of a disaster, and it is too noisy to hear the content.
Even if you cover your ears with your hands, the sound will still penetrate into your ears with the momentum of bursting the eardrum. In simple terms, it is a disaster of this magnitude.
In front of the strait, the 10 divisions of the military headquarters were already in full array.
With their backs to the land of the island, ten ships surrounded the entrance to the strait in front of them in a semicircle...... Originally, Yakumo Azusa and Ji Yuehua had thought about whether to leave all the ships behind and let everyone stand on the surface of the sea with the special shoes allocated by the Technology Development Bureau to fight those alien creatures. This is to avoid expensive ships being affected in battle.
However, after thinking about it for a while, the "dead man" did not need to go back by boat.
All the people standing here are ready to die without a place to be buried. In this case, even that cautious and frugal mind is superfluous. After discussion, Yakumo Azusa and Ji Yuehua still decided to use the ship as a position to set up the formation, which was also to create a higher foothold for the remote personnel to a greater or lesser extent.
The remote personnel drawn from the various divisions were now evenly distributed among the ten ships, and the number was about one hundred and thirty, which was about a quarter of the twelve divisions combined. Yakumo Zi, who was the marshal of the military department, and Yue Qingque, the commander of the 12th Division, stood on the two ships in the center.
In front of them, a melee group of the remaining personnel of the ten divisions of the Army Department formed an impregnable barrier.
Led by Ji Yuehua, Ruoxi Wan, and eight division commanders, the men of the melee group kept a distance from the strait in front on the one hand, and on the other hand, they did not dare to approach the ships in the rear.
At this stage, strategy is useless. They were given only two missionsββββ while preventing the "Calamity" from breaking through the defenses, and at the same time, it happened to leave them a certain amount of room to advance, so that they would not destroy the passage of the strait during the battle and trap the twelve divisions of the military headquarters here.
Everything is ready to go.
At the next moment when the ships of the 3rd and 4th Divisions passed through the strait, the black and oppressive beasts also appeared with a ferocious figure.
To be honest, that's not what pen and ink can describe.
The number of alien creatures in units of "thousands" crowded and pushed each other in the narrow passageway, but without causing a large crowd, they chased after the two divisions with earth-shattering momentum and killed everyone in the military headquarters.
He was huge, but he was faster than a horse. Needless to say, how destructive it is in reality, even the appearance is a green face with fangs and a hideous face.
At this point, it was already at the level of a natural disaster.
A deafening roar spread throughout the sea.
Countless beasts bared their fangs at them, and what appeared to be a corrosive liquid of slime flowed from the mouths of the insect-like aliens and dripped onto the blue surface of the sea.
There were only a few hundred meters left in front of the melee group of these alien creatures.
In the face of an enemy who was far superior to his own in numbers, he said that he did not feel fear or defeat at all...... That must be a lie, and I'm afraid only a very small number of strange people will.
Still, it is impossible to escape.
The land is on the back, but the land is just an island, and if you run hard, you will suddenly run to the edge of the cliff...... The so-called last stand, exactly that.
"The whole army obeys orders. Shoot the arrow!!"
Just as the 3rd and 4th Divisions were about to join up with the melee group, and the vanguard of the "Calamity" was about to step out of the strait, under the order of Yakumo Zi, the ranged personnel staying on the ten ships launched a salvo at the alien creatures in front of them.
In order to increase the probability of victory in this battle, before that, the Technology Development Bureau provided 300 arrows of all kinds to all the remote personnel of the 13th Division of the War Department free of charge. Among them, it includes the "Flame Blaster", which has the most lethality at this stage.
Hundreds of arrows containing specially made explosives rained down on the heads of the vanguard of the "Calamity", causing a chain explosion.
Black smoke enveloped the entire entrance to the strait, and the loud sound of the explosion briefly drowned out the roars of the beasts under the infinite overlap and spread.
Since the alien creatures have entered the range of fire, the ranged personnel led by Yakumo Azusa and Tsukiharu Que are no longer polite.
Anyway, the distance and location of the straits on both sides are already clear to everyone, and whether the vision has been taken away or not is not important at all. Anyway, those alien creatures are crowding the passages...... Just as Ji Yuehua did not consider aiming when arranging the torpedo launcher, no matter where it is fired within the specified range, it will inevitably hit a new enemy in the end, and the special explosives of the "Flame Burst" ensure the lethality after hitting. In that case, all that remains is to fire the arrows desperately.
Determined to shoot all the arrows, the ranged troops rained down a steady rain of arrows on the vanguard of the Calamity.
Even an ordinary ranged person can shoot an arrow in about four seconds on average, and one of the three arrows must kill in one hit. As for Yakumo Azusa and Yue Qingqing, after launching the "Thoughtless One Heart", they launched a non-stop bombardment of the alien creatures with the momentum of shooting more than a dozen branches per second.
In just a minute or so, the number of alien creatures that were blown to pieces, or who were seriously injured and fell to the surface of the sea, and then trampled into flesh by their companions behind them, was already as high as four hundred!
However, also in the next moment.
"Roaring ββββββ"
The alien creatures broke through the black smoke and slaughtered the twelve divisions that were waiting for them.
