Episode 32 Missile Strikes Back!
The Divine Arrow No. 1 in Bizet's mouth is one of the secret weapon programs being developed by the Blue Star Country, a medium-range cruise missile named "Long Sword". After many years, the Blue Star Clan still clearly remembers how the human navy used missiles to defeat each other and win the victory in the sea battle in the Gulf of Aden. After crossing into this realm, in order to fight against the cultivators, the high-level of the Blue Star Clan knew early on that they had to rely on the powerful scientific and technological power from the earth to arm themselves, and missiles were one of the powerful weapons they could use against the cultivators.
Therefore, as early as when they had just gained a foothold in Xiaoyu Town, the Blue Star Clan began to manufacture earth weapons such as guns and cannons, and after the establishment of the Blue Star Country, they continued to combine earth weapons with spiritual cultivation for research and development. From pistols, submachine guns, rifles, grenades, rockets, to automobiles, armored vehicles, tanks, aircraft, artillery and warships, the Blue Star Country has gradually modernized its army, and cruise missiles are one of the secret weapons that the Blue Star Military focuses on developing.
The "Long Sword" short-range cruise missile, which was successfully tested in this latest experiment, has a maximum range of 600 kilometers, an effective range of more than 500 kilometers, and can carry a 500-kilogram warhead with a hit accuracy of less than 50 meters. Bizet, who has extensive experience in the manufacture of missiles on Earth, has also developed several loading modes, so that in addition to fixed launches, this missile can also be launched in a variety of ways, such as vehicle-mounted, ship-borne and even airborne.
Upon receiving the news of the successful test launch of the missile, Danny, who was excited, immediately ordered the Ministry of Defense to start full-scale production and manufacture of this type of missile, and at the same time comprehensively carry out research on the update of subsequent models. The successful development of this new missile has been injected into the Blue Star Army like a booster, and the top brass has even placed all their hopes of turning the tide of the war on this new weapon. And soon, this new cruise missile ushered in the first combat test.
50 miles away from Hanzhong City, 600,000 Qin troops set up a battle formation and slowly advanced towards Hanzhong City. The vanguard led by the vanguard took the lead and rushed to the front. This vanguard force has a total of 30,000 people, all of them are spirit beast cavalry, the leader is a monk at the peak of the Dan Realm, and there is also a twenty-person tiger cavalry detachment to follow, and the commander is a strong man in the infant realm, and his combat effectiveness can be described as extremely strong.
According to the battle practice of the Qin army, they first sent the vanguard of cavalry to rush to the front of the enemy's position, and swam around to attack with great mobility, looking for the weak points of the opponent's position, and at the same time consuming the opponent's offensive firepower. After the army arrived, they would charge in batches, and at the same time send the Tiger Cavalry to attack and kill the opponent's commander, and after disrupting the opponent's command and sneak attack, they would send all the troops to suppress and destroy the enemy in one fell swoop. In the previous battles, the Qin army attacked in this way, and it was indeed invincible.
"What an arrogant bunch!"
On the gate of Hanzhong City, Sun Bin used a spiritual telescope to look at the cavalry troops of the Qin army from afar, and blurted out a scolding. As an outstanding military member of the Blue Star Army, Sun Bin had been promoted to the supreme commander of the Central Theater at this time, commanding 8 group armies and responsible for the defense of Hanzhong City. He expected that the Qin army would directly attack Hanzhong City, and mobilized and prepared early. All the residents and factories outside Hanzhong City were moved to the rear, and more than a dozen towns along the way were all transformed into strong positions, and the core area of Hanzhong City was fully guarded, and the 1 million Blue Star Army decided to defend the capital and fight to the death with the Qin army.
In addition to the 8 group armies guarding the capital, Sun Bin also mobilized 4 group armies to support near Hanzhong City at any time, and he planned to wait for the Qin army to attack the city, first use the solid offensive in the city to drag the Qin army, and then let the 4 group armies surround the Qin army from the flank and rear, and defeat the Qin army by encirclement and annihilation.
This battle plan was made by Sun Bin based on the current strength of both the enemy and the enemy. Because of the existence of the Qin Army's Tiger Cavalry, the Blue Star Army was not too sure that it would be able to deal with the Qin Army in the battle of the large corps, so it could only choose to rely on solid fortifications and try to hold off the Qin Army in street battles, fighting a war of attrition. However, the cost will be the sacrifice of a large number of soldiers, and the city of the capital Hanzhong City will also be severely damaged.
Under the current situation, the high-level leaders of the Blue Star Country were also forced to accept such a combat deployment, and the administrative command organs of the capital had already moved to the rear, leaving only a few administrative agencies to coordinate and support the front-line combat operations. Except for a few who insisted on staying as volunteers to support the fighting, most of the other residents moved to the rear, and the schools, factories, enterprises, and institutions in the city were empty. The streets are filled with prohibitions, traps, and spells, and 300,000 troops lurk in positions throughout the city... The entire city of Hanzhong was ready to fight to the death with the Qin army. The high-level leaders of the Blue Star Clan are ready to fight at the expense of the entire city to turn this place into a tomb of the Qin army, so to speak, the battle of Hanzhong City is the Stalingrad of the Blue Star Country.
But now, Sun Bin's battle plan has changed, and this time, Hanzhong City may have a chance to be preserved intact.
"The enemy's vanguard is 40 kilometers away from us, advancing in a sharp knife formation!"
"A detachment of the Qin Army's Tiger Cavalry was found on the 458 heights, 30 kilometers away at two o'clock, numbering about 20 people. β
"The large forces of the Qin army moved slowly towards us at the same time, and the battle formation had been initially condensed, and the entire army was 8 kilometers wide and 12 kilometers long. β
...
While listening to the report of the aerial reconnaissance, Sun Bin deduced and studied on the map, and after a while, he quickly gave the battle order: "Very good, according to the predetermined plan, the first round of missiles will start attacking!"
Soon, in more than a dozen well-concealed positions in Hanzhong City, there was a sudden rumbling sound, and more than 30 missiles more than 10 meters long rose into the air, like a giant pillar of optimus, roaring towards the Qin army outside the city.
The 10-meter-long body of the Changjian missile, under the impetus of the huge flames spewed out by the booster, pierced through the sky at a speed of more than 100 meters per second, and climbed to an altitude of more than 1,000 meters in one breath, and then the booster was separated from the missile body one after another, and the main engine continued to push the missile to climb to an altitude of about 3,000 meters, and then slowly descended to the cruising altitude, shooting at a speed of more than 150 meters per second to the target.
On a small hillside named 485 Heights by Sun Bin, more than 20 generals of the Qin Army were floating in the low sky, looking proudly at Hanzhong City in the distance.
"Everyone has used their spiritual sense to see where the people with higher cultivation in the Blue Star Army are, let's pick which one to start with. A heavily armored general standing in the middle said with a relaxed expression.
"General Bi, it is said that the general of the Blue Star Army who guards this Hanzhong City is the most resourceful Sun Bin in the Blue Star Army, this kid is not simple, he has led the army to defeat our army on the frontal battlefield many times, and has also launched many attacks in our rear, without a single miss, annihilated many of us, Marshal Wuhuan in order to deal with him, but also specially sent the people of the fourth wing to deal with him, but they have not succeeded. A Dan Realm Commander thought about it and said with emotion.
"Hmph, Fourth Wing? This group of waste, even an ordinary low-level monk can't deal with it, what's the use?! What they can't do, we may not be able to do! No matter who the opponent is in this battle, we must destroy it in the shortest possible time. As long as the command system of the Blue Star Army is eliminated, the remaining soldiers will not be in trouble at all! It doesn't matter if it is Sun Bin or Luo Bin who is defending the city, we will still destroy him!" said the general surnamed Bi with a proud face.
It is no wonder that this Qin army is proud, and it can be used as the vanguard of the Tiger Cavalry Army to attack Hanzhong City, and the strength of the third wing is also extremely strong, and the record is brilliant. The original command system of the Third Army of the Blue Star Army was attacked by this wing and suffered heavy casualties, which led to the defeat.
While these Qin generals were observing Hanzhong City, they noticed something strange in the air in the distance almost at the same time. General Bi sneered and said contemptuously: "These Blue Star Troops finally can't help but attack first? Or those old methods, send planes to bomb first?"
When the other commanders heard this, they immediately looked at each other and smiled, and one of them said: "It's really not any progress at all, we have already studied the tactics of the Blue Star Army thoroughly." Although the planes are powerful, we are not unprepared at all, this time, we must let these planes go and never return. β
As if to verify what this Dan Realm Commander said, at the top of the dark clouds in the distance, hundreds of demon crow cavalry suddenly appeared, rushing towards Hanzhong City in the distance. Of course, the Qin army knew that the ordinary Crow Cavalry was not an opponent of the aircraft, but the Demon Crow Cavalry could use the numerical advantage to deal with the aircraft, after all, the number of fighters in the entire Blue Star Army was only more than 1,000, and the Qin Army's Demon Crow troops in this attack had more than 5,000 people, even if it was a suicidal attack, it could destroy all the Blue Star Army fighters by piling up cannon fodder.
"But, why are these planes so strange?" a Dan Realm Commander showed a surprised expression, and his spiritual sense stared at the approaching "fighters" in the distance.
"yes, why are there only more than thirty of them?" and the speed is so fastβ" said the other commander strangely.
Qin Jun, surnamed Bi, seemed to realize that something was wrong, and suddenly raised his head, staring at the direction where the "fighter" was flying, and suddenly his face changed greatly, and he shouted: "It's not good!
But before he finished speaking, 12 longsword missiles swooped down from a high altitude and high speed with a long tail, and the flight speed at the end reached more than 500 meters per second.
This terrifying speed comparable to that of a peak powerhouse in the infant realm, at such a close distance, the Qin army could not avoid it at all!
A huge fireball flooded the entire hillside, and the charge of the 12 missile warheads reached 6 tons, and the powerful blast wave suddenly blew a large crater on the top of the hillside. The Third Wing of the Tiger Cavalry Army, which was still chatting lightly on the hillside just now, disappeared in the blink of an eye!
The first round of longsword missiles launched fell on the positions of the Qin army one after another, successively knocked out several officers of the Qin army, killed hundreds of senior generals of the Qin army at once, and the high-ranking generals who led the vanguard of the 30,000 Qin army were all beheaded by missiles in an instant!
Just when the Qin army was in chaos, more missiles flew out of Hanzhong City and accurately landed on targets in the Qin army. The Blue Star Army was aimed at the people with high cultivation in the Qin army, as well as the places where a large number of large magic weapons were concentrated, and the Qin army troops who were crowded in number and had not yet formed a battle formation were the key targets of missile attacks.
More than half an hour later, more than 100 missiles had all fallen on the head of the Qin army, so that the Qin army did not have the slightest strength to fight back, just when they were in a chaos, a roar sounded again over Hanzhong City, and hundreds of fighters emerged from the clouds, roaring towards the Qin army.
