Chapter 107: Attacking Behind Enemy Lines
The yellow sand is long and dusty, and the sandbar is gradually covered in shadows.
The two very large wilderness legions face each other in mid-air, this battle is a battle between the northern wilderness and the southern wilderness, but the essence is the first formal but indirect confrontation between the cloud starlight and the cloud eagle, and the result of this battle determines whether the trial council withdraws from the southern wilderness world, so it directly affects the success or failure of the starlight master's strategy to unify the wilderness.
The number of troops on both sides is not in the same order of magnitude.
The scale of the Judgment Council's troops is very large, not only has twice the vehicles of the Southern Wilderness Alliance, but also has a very large ground force, with more than 500 ground combat vehicles fully loaded with troops, and more than 2,000 land riding lizards and giant wolves.
Most of these are elite fighters who have been continuously selected from the occupied cities during the period of the Trial Council, and although they are not the main force in this battle, they can provide effective ground support, which is not a small force.
The Southern Wilderness Alliance had almost no ground forces.
Its advantage is no better than that of Nighttown's more advanced ships.
If we look at the classification of wilderness warships by the Judgment Council: reconnaissance class, adventure class, war class, aircraft carrier class, and destruction class, the scale of the Judgment Council's wilderness warships now reaches more than 2,000, of which the war-class airships or warships are less than 500 at most, and the rest are generally small and medium-sized manned airships of the adventure class.
There are only 800 main warships of the Southern Wilderness Alliance, almost all of which have reached the war-level standard, among which there is a huge ancient warship, which is equipped with powerful ship-based laser cannons, according to the evaluation standards of the trial council, it has initially reached the level of the aircraft carrier level, and the destructive power of this kind of warship can reach dozens of ordinary war-class ships, and its appearance on the battlefield is enough to cause huge deterrence to the other party.
The comprehensive combat strength of the two sides will not be too different.
Dominant in terms of the size of the trial council.
The Southern Wilderness Alliance is well-equipped and has many strong people.
There's bound to be a fierce battle in the dark!
Beichen Xi stared at the warships that were getting closer and closer on the opposite side, she pulled out her earth messenger and pointed hard ahead, "Fight them all!"
The troops on both sides were like two dark clouds filled with the breath of death.
The two dark clouds approached each other at a very fast speed, and if you look at it from a distance, you will find that the two clouds light up with sparks, which are not actually sparks, but the flames generated by the fire, and the two sides begin to shoot missiles at each other.
The clouds exploded.
The bursting flames, the light was dazzling, just like the thunder raging in the dark clouds, and the terrifying roar was more like the angry thunder that resounded through the heavens and the earth.
Yun Ying felt that the entire battleship was shaking, because several frigates were hit on the left and right, and the debris was constantly thrown into the air during the explosion, pouring on the hull like a torrential rain, and the source of the vibration came from these impacts, and the missiles fired by both sides caused some damage to each other, and the preliminary test was difficult to distinguish.
There are too many troops for the trial council.
Massive ground forces quickly dispersed and approached.
Armored fighting vehicles whipped up yellow sand and sped on the rugged ground, and wilderness warriors carried bazookas and rode monitor lizards close below, they didn't even bother to aim, and fired rockets at the mid-air ship group, although the damage was relatively limited, but it was still enough to bring harassment and losses.
The wind is blowing!
Roar and piercing!
Heaven and earth have become chaotic.
Beichen Xi said with a solemn face: "Their equipment is a little better than expected!"
Although the vehicles of the trial council are not very powerful, they are generally equipped with missile launchers, which are not only able to shoot at the Southern Wilderness troops from a distance of 10 kilometers, but the anti-aircraft warships of the Southern Wilderness troops have more powerful firepower, but they cannot withstand the huge number of the other side, if the fight continues according to this situation, it is difficult to say who will win and who will lose in the end, and even if one of the sides wins, I am afraid it will be a situation of defeat and defeat.
This is where the Cloud Eagle will come here.
The Inquisition's desire to rule the Wilderness is out of Starlight's will, and as a crucial battle to determine whether the Inquisition Council can stay in the Southern Wilderness, the Inquisition Council will definitely draw all the forces deployed in the Southern Wilderness World, and the troops borrowed by the Southern Wilderness Alliance from Night City are not so easy to win.
Therefore, Yun Ying said directly: "Our population and troops are not as many as the trial council, and the trial council can make a comeback even if the whole army is destroyed, and even if we win, if it is based on a crushing victory, then the victory is meaningless, so we can't fight them head-to-head." ”
That's true.
The scale of the Inquisition Council is too large, with a total of more than 6,000 war-class warships, and even if it is defeated once or twice, most of them will remain. They have controlled the entire northern wilderness before, waging war in all directions, fighting to feed the war, constantly expanding, and getting stronger and stronger!
If this force dies with the Southern Wilderness Alliance.
Although the trial council temporarily lost the opportunity to occupy the Southern Wilderness.
But Yunying also lost the ability to attack the north in a short period of time.
Yun Ying clearly realized that his real enemy was not in the wilderness, but the unfathomable Starlight Master in the Divine Domain, and if Yun Ying wanted to fight against the Starlight Master, he had to gather the power of the entire wilderness, and even more so to eliminate all interference from the wilderness, so the Judgment Council was an obstacle that must be removed!
It's not just about getting rid of it.
And it has to be fast!
In the past twenty days since Cloud Eagle returned to the Oasis, the Divine Domain did not realize the emergence of the threat, or even if it did, it was too late to react, if it was delayed for three years or two years and it was not possible to attack the north, the Starlight Master would have enough time to calmly deploy defenses in UFO City, and at that time, Cloud Eagle's chances of victory would be very small.
If you can't take the city.
Yun Ying lost its strategic depth and encirclement of the Divine Domain.
In this case, Master Starlight is invincible, and Yunying is in danger.
The two sides fired missiles at each other more and more frequently, causing more and more damage and losses, and at the same time the distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer, the commander of the Judgment Council began to direct the main force to slow down, and at the same time ordered the air cavalry troops to start sorting, only to see three or four thousand wilderness knights riding birds of prey, from both wings of the Judgment Corps ready to strike a roundabout attack on the southern wilderness troops.
The Wilderness Sky Knights are an important force in wilderness warfare!
Although it does not have a strong attack power, it has great mobility.
They can be used for many purposes, such as relying on high-speed movement to intercept incoming missiles, or simply attacking and harassing at close range through a hail of bullets. The weapons prepared by the air knights generally include rapid-fire crossbows, machine guns, throwing bombs, etc., and if this well-connected force attacks the rear, then the troops' positions will definitely be disrupted.
Beichen Xi didn't even think about it: "The old drunkard led the air cavalry troops to dispatch immediately!"
Bulky air ships and warships can't intercept the Wilderness Sky Knight, so the best way to deal with this kind of Wilderness Sky Knight is to also dispatch the Air Knight and intercept the Air Knight with the Air Knight, but in terms of number and scale, the Southern Wilderness is still at a disadvantage, if you don't think of a better way, this is the result of losing both.
"Now it seems that there is only one way to end the fight quickly. Yun Ying glanced at Beichen Xi, and then pointed to the largest ships in the opponent's fleet through the glass, these are obviously the most advanced warships in the army, and there are many escort airships floating around the battleships, "We have to find a way to take down their command ships!"
Beichen Xi understood what Yunying meant.
Whether it is the Southern Wilderness Army, or the Trial Council, such a huge force is dispatched, which inevitably needs a command ship to command, and the command ship is often more than one, among which there will be a main command ship responsible for coordinating the troops, if the main ship is destroyed or other reasons can not play a command role, then several command ships will be given command in accordance with the priority, to ensure that the troops will not be chaotic on the battlefield.
If you can take down the opponent's command ship.
Then the opposing forces will be leaderless, and they will immediately collapse from the inside!
But there are a large number of escort airships near the command ship, and it is difficult for the sophisticated air cavalry troops to get close to the command ship, not to mention the number of command ships, if you want to completely disintegrate the command of the opposing force, you must destroy all the command ships, this kind of thing is actually very difficult.
Yun Ying's gaze swept over: "There are three in total, Yongye is responsible for the side ship on the left, Cang Ming is responsible for the side ship on the right, you and I will go to the main ship together! Let Fei Peng replace you to command the troops, the old drunkard will lead the air cavalry to cover it, and I will use my space ability to directly pass through the outer defenses!"
That's right!
Cloud Eagle has spatial abilities!
Normal defense is useless against Cloud Eagle!
Beichen Feipeng was a little worried after hearing this: "No matter how powerful your spatial ability is, the number of people you can teleport is limited, and a large number of Northern Wilderness masters have gathered in each command ship, and it may be a very risky thing for you to rashly approach and try to destroy the battleship." ”
"What is this danger?" Yun Ying didn't have time to think about it, "Start acting now!"
A minute later.
The core area of the Judgment Corps shook in space.
Dozens of people were teleported.
Yun Ying made a gesture.
Eternal Night led a group of people to the left, Cang Ming led a group of people to the right, these two are not fuel-efficient lamps, one is the acting city lord of Night Night City, and the other is the famous Demon Sand Emperor in the wilderness, with the strength of the two of them, it is easy to cut down a few warships, and it is only a matter of dealing with two deputy command ships, presumably it should be no problem!
"Let's go!"
Yun Ying took Beichen Xi and several Beichen masters and hurried towards a battleship below, this battleship was in the shape of a trident, its volume was the largest among all warships, almost the size of a hill, and it was equipped with an astonishing number of shipborne weapons.
Several heavy machine guns shoot out tongues of fire half a meter high!
Thousands of powerful bullets came down like a torrential rain!
Hardly anyone can withstand strafing from several heavy machine guns at such close range!
If it is replaced by Yun Ying more than half a year ago, this kind of attack may still be a little threatening, but for Yun Ying now, even if this kind of bullet hits his body, it can only cause flesh wounds at most, Yun Ying's left hand suddenly clenched into a fist, and a huge white circle of light shrouded forward.
When the bullet hits it, it is immediately repelled and bounced off!
Several heavy machine guns fired wildly at close range, and even Yun Ying couldn't hurt a single hair!
Beichen Xi scolded, fell from the sky, stretched out her long legs, stepped on the shooting fortress, the entire area was dented, she shook her hand and waved the earth messenger, a sword light quickly shot out and hit a heavy machine gunner, the heavy machine gun's metal baffle several centimeters thick was directly shattered, the barrel burst, the chamber exploded on the spot, the gunner was torn apart, and he died tragically on the spot.
Yun Ying followed and kicked the engine, flames and debris kept falling on his body, but he didn't even hurt Yun Ying's skin at all, he calmly walked out of the flames, at this time the battleship began to lose its balance a little, but a large warship like this, the number of engines is very large, and destroying one or two is not enough to make it lose its kinetic energy.
The surrounding escort airships reacted.
A large number of empty knights were sent out urgently.
"Let's go inside!"
Yun Ying pulled it with one hand, sparks and screeching sounds erupted, only to see the thick metal hatch being ripped off casually, turning around and throwing it out to knock a knight into meat sauce, and then he took Beichen Xi and swaggered inside.
The Sky Knights who chased after them were dumbfounded.
Is this guy still human or not?
He's a humanoid monster at all!
