The overwhelming fleet of the Eternal Night swarmed, much faster than expected. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info Qianye had just entered the fortress with the reinforced warriors, and the high-speed assault ships of the dark race had already arrived near the fortress.

Thousand Nights jumped onto the fortress walls, took out the thunder, and aimed at an assault ship. It's just that the range of the Thunder is also limited at this time, and the power at a long distance is insufficient, so Qianye patiently waited for the assault ship to approach.

At this time, the power tower in the fortress emitted a sharp whistling sound, which was the howling noise generated by the high-speed and strong exhaust of a large amount of steam. The whole body of the power tower is shaking, and it is already overloaded. Inside the fortress's turrets, rapid-fire cannons and crossbows roared, and ten flaming whips made of cannonballs crisscrossed the air, firmly guarding the sky above the fortress.

The assault ships attacked by the dark race were constantly hit by the flaming whip, and the hull suddenly burst into flames, and in the violent explosion, large parts detached from the hull from time to time and flew everywhere.

Soon two assault ships were whipped by the whip and tumbled, burning and falling to the ground, planting their heads on the hillside, causing a violent explosion. More assault ships are still flying around the fortress, looking for an opportunity to attack. However, the anti-aircraft fire of the fortress was particularly fierce, and the metal fire from the rapid-fire guns did not stop at all, waving violently. The four giant crossbows are like calm killers, and from time to time they shoot a crossbow arrow, hitting the assault ship that is out of range of rapid-fire guns.

These giant crossbows are extremely powerful, and they all have their own tracking functions, which can basically knock down an assault ship with a single arrow.

Seeing the crossbow arrow boxes piled up next to the giant crossbow, Song Zining couldn't help but praise: "Zhao Valve is really generous this time! This kind of tracking giant crossbow, each of which is a big price, my Ningyuan Heavy Industry can't produce it now." ”

Before he could finish speaking, Qianye suddenly stretched out his hand and pressed him to the ground. At the same time, Qianye slapped the ground, and the shock wave spread in all directions, and the soldiers within more than ten meters were shocked so that people fell to the ground on their backs.

At this time, a strange shrill whistle sounded in the air, and more than ten large-caliber machine gun shells swept over everyone's heads, leaving a puff of puffy stone powder floating soil on the ground, leaving a huge crater.

Song Zining looked up and saw an assault ship passing from above, which actually broke through the interception of the air defense fire network and rushed to the sky above the fortress. At this moment, several machine guns in the belly of the ship are firing desperately, constantly strafing the soldiers in the fortress.

If it weren't for Qianye's fast movements, the string of shells just now would have hit Song Zining. Although these large-caliber machine gun shells are not in the eyes of today's Qishao, they still hurt very much when hit on the body, and there will be minor injuries if they are not.

However, for ordinary soldiers, the power of these cannon shells is somewhat terrifying. Most of the soldiers in the vicinity of Thousand Nights were knocked down by him, and they dodged the strafing shells. However, several fighters who were standing not far away were unfortunately hit, and a weaker first-class fighter was directly hit in two by the middle of the shell, and blood and internal organs were splattered everywhere.

Qianye had already raised the thunder, and the crosshair firmly locked on to a cannon sticking out of the belly of the ship. But instead of shooting, he put the thunder down again.

Sure enough, a giant crossbow on the turret of the fortress quickly turned around, and with a sharp shock, it shot out the crossbow arrow. The thick crossbow bolt streaked through the air in a delicate arc, shot into the tail of the air strike ship, and pushed it tumbling and flying out more than 100 meters, before it exploded violently and exploded into a huge fireball.

At this moment, there was chaos in the fortress, and the new warriors who had entered the fortress encountered such a fierce battle before they had time to assign posts.

Qianye jumped up and shouted loudly, driving the bewildered warriors to combat positions or to take care of the wounded. Several generals were doing similar things to Thousand Nights, including the bearded man.

Zhao Valve spared no expense in the configuration of the fortress's anti-aircraft firepower, and the firepower density per unit area was several times higher than the most powerful fortress Qianye had ever seen. Such a number of configurations are enough for a medium-sized city, but they were forced into this temporary fortress that can only accommodate a thousand people by Zhao Valve.

The Dark Race also obviously did not expect the fire of the fortress to be so fierce, and in a moment the assault ships suffered heavy losses, one after another fell and burned. After losing more than half of the losses, the remnants of the assault ships finally could not hold up and fled the fortress.

Qianye climbed the city wall and looked into the distance, and his heart suddenly sank slightly. The fortress was in the center of the first line of defense, and the army of Zhang was winding its way through the valley not far away. Even though the dark army was just a few kilometers away, their marching speed remained steady, without acceleration or panic, and the army rumbled away like a precision machine.

At this moment, the fleet of the dark race was slowly approaching, the high-speed assault ships were frustrated, and more than ten warships were divided into the fleet, flying towards the fortress. This time it was not a high-speed and agile, but the hull was narrow, and the front and rear were only twenty or thirty meters long, but they were all large warships more than 100 meters long. By Imperial standards, mostly of the frigate class, and with two destroyers in the town.

The anti-aircraft fire of the fortress was somewhat inadequate against these large floating warships. The giant crossbow that seemed indestructible just now had to be hit with two or three shots before it took out the most front frigate.

Seeing that the battleship group was about to fly over the fortress, the Eternal Night Fleet divided an attack fleet and bypassed the fortress to pursue Zhang Valve's army. Now the retreating troops of Zhang Valve have no fleet escort.

At this moment, an Imperial fleet suddenly rushed out of the dense dark clouds in the sky, this fleet was not large, but it was all elite high-speed warships. The battleship ignored the engagement of the Zhao Valve Fortress and instead went straight to the main force of the Eternal Night Fleet.

This fleet of the Eternal Night may seem to be large, but in fact it is mostly a transport ship that transports troops and logistical supplies. Once it was rushed into formation by the Imperial fleet, it was bound to suffer heavy losses. The commander of the Eternal Night Fleet was not a simple person, on the one hand, he divided the escort warships to meet the attack, and dragged the Imperial fleet regardless of losses, and on the other hand, recalled the detachment sent to pursue Zhang Valve's army, and at the same time let the transport ships unload the troops on the spot, and the transport ships transporting supplies retreated backwards. All of a sudden, the Grand Fleet was split into several parts, acting separately but in good order.

However, the Imperial Attack Fleet is also elite, and it goes straight to the core of the Eternal Night Fleet, like a wedge that pierces into the depths of the Eternal Night Fleet, and then stirs it up. All of a sudden, hundreds of warships were fighting desperately in the air less than a kilometer above the ground, and the scene was chaotic. One transport ship after another caught fire and burned because they could not escape, and some even exploded directly.

At the critical moment, all the transports that transported the soldiers opened their hatches and dumped all the loaded dark warriors out like garbage, regardless of the height they were at at the moment. Some transport ships even began to dump fighters when they were hundreds of meters above the ground. At this height, maybe the high-level fighters can't die, but the low-level soldiers and cannon fodder are sure to die.

"Ruthless enough!" Song Zining said.

Although the Eternal Night Fleet suffered heavy losses, the effect was immediate. In a short time, all the transports were overwhelmed and then turned around and left the battlefield. For the Imperial warships, empty transport ships are of little value, but they are not attack gunboats that specialize in ground, although the ground is full of dark race warriors, but there are no good means of attack, at most take the time to sweep a few times with machine guns, which is better than nothing.

The commander of the Imperial fleet was also a decisive man, and immediately gathered the fleet, regardless of the losses, forced a passage from the rear of the Eternal Night Fleet, and quickly moved away.

The decisive battle of the fleet was short and tragic, with hundreds of large and small warships lost to both sides in a short period of time, and the wreckage of warships billowing with smoke was everywhere along the mountain. The main loss was that more than a dozen transport ships full of soldiers were blown up in the air, and tens of thousands of soldiers and cannon fodder had not yet shown up, and their souls flew out of the sky in the explosion.

On the ground, the mountains were full of dark warriors, and there was chaos. The final dumping of the Eternal Night Fleet left wounded soldiers all over the place, and there were many corpses in them. Combined, the Dark Army lost more than 40,000 troops, and the troops transported over this time were equivalent to 20% of the direct battle losses.

However, most of the people who were killed were cannon fodder, and the losses of high-level fighters were not large, so the losses of the dark race's military strength were not as great as they seemed.

One Imperial fleet is gone, and another emerges from the clouds. However, it did not take advantage of the chaos to attack, but stared at the Eternal Night Fleet, constantly roaming around the periphery, obviously with the idea of harassing and delaying, and if there was an opportunity, it would not mind taking a hard bite.

And the Eternal Night Fleet is not ambiguous, the fleet commander directly divided several small boats, circled a piece from the dark army on the ground, about 10,000 people, and let them attack the fortress, not caring about which formation this group of soldiers belonged to, and whether the match was reasonable.

On the other hand, the Eternal Night Fleet has drawn all the high-speed warships out and confronted the Imperial Fleet from afar. As for the rest of the warriors, let them regroup under the protection of the fleet. In this way, he miraculously figured out the chaos on the battlefield.

The Imperial Fleet did not attack, and the Outer Space Fleet was a key area related to the entire war situation, and it could not be easily lost.

Looking at the swarm of dark warriors, Song Zining took a deep breath and said, "This battle is not easy to fight. ”

"It's all here, it's too late to regret it. Qianye said as he lifted the multi-barreled machine gun next to him and suddenly opened fire.

The multi-barreled machine guns spun rapidly, roaring and spewing a rain of bullets at the enemy who were still thousands of kilometers away. Many soldiers on this section of the defense line were stunned, and the firing distance was too far. Although the ultimate firing range of a multi-barrel machine gun is also in kilometers, how can you really aim at a distance of kilometers?

However, Qianye didn't care so much, and the machine gun in his hand never stopped roaring. But the Dark Warriors in the distance fell in pieces, and the hit rate of this strafing shot was surprisingly high.
