Chapter 109: The Battle of Fangshan 4
The mushroom cloud is rising, and the whole village under the mountain reflected by the firelight is bright. With the Baron Barbia's strike, 10 large old airships passed in turn directly in front of the cottage. Due to the difficulty in the layout of the magic pipeline, the mainstream large flying ships in the world of Elis can only install 16 medium-sized magic cannons at most, or 8 heavy magic cannons, and the dozen or so flying ships that Qin Shouzhuo brought this time also have to be used as transportation, and the number of magic cannons on both sides is actually only 6, and the output firepower of 3 medium-sized magic cannons on one side is actually not very powerful, but the output of 10 ships, a total of 30 medium-sized magic cannons, cannot be ignored.
A fleet of 10 large airships, closer together, at lower altitudes, and slower. The cottage soldiers, who had been stunned by the violent explosion at the beginning, had not yet come to their senses, and the surviving bunker fortifications that had survived him were named one by one, and the rest of the people collapsed amid the shouts and killings around them.
"As planned, the enemy didn't even hold out until we completed a charge. Inside the bridge of the Baron Baria, Qin Shouzhuo was holding a cup of black tea and looking at the battlefield below. The flagship Baron Babia completed a turnaround after firing a rocket, and at this time it was intersecting with the main fleet at a higher altitude, with two twin turrets in front and rear, and four heavy magic robes pointing to the battlefield, but at this time there were no targets worthy of its fire in the cottage.
"Report! The outer cottage has been suppressed, and the 8th squadron is attacking the entrance to the cave!"
"Hmm," nodded his head, signaling that he understood, and let the herald continue to work, Qin Shouzhuo put down the teacup in his hand and turned his head to look at Princess Sally, "The next thing is the battle in the mountain, and the flying fleet will not be of much help." β
"Then put this palace down, you liar!" Princess Sally was very angry because she was clumsily shaken by Qin Shou again. Before, Princess Sally said that she would personally lead the team to attack, and it would be in the first wave of attacking troops, Qin Shouzhuo thought about it and agreed. This mad princess is a double-edged sword, and if you offend her, you can't guarantee that nothing will happen. But if you really put Her Royal Highness the princess on the front line, Qin Shouzhuo would not do it, so he said this:
"Since Her Royal Highness the princess understands the righteousness so well, let's stay on this ship. This ship is the most combat-effective battleship in our fleet, and after the battle begins, it will be the first to charge and kick the door to open the way for the follow-up attack, and Her Royal Highness the Princess's combat power is indispensable. β
"What do you mean by indispensable, you liar!!"
"Your Royal Highness Princess, don't be impatient, we still have to see the battle situation at the airport, I have already made arrangements for your people, and the situation will not be too bad. β
After appeasing Princess Sally a little, Qin Shouzhuo's energy was once again focused on the war.
"Report! The main force of our legion has entered the cave, and the two mercenary groups of Black Tiger and Blue Wolf of Shu County have arrived at the battlefield and are lining up to enter the cave. β
The 7th Squadron reported that more than 5,000 bandits and hostages had been found at the airport and could not raid and requested reinforcements. β
"The 3rd, 4th, and 5th squadrons will immediately go to the canyon airport, and after converging, if they can't make a surprise attack, then launch a strong attack. The position of the 11-14 squadron?"
"In front of the cottage, because the road was blocked by the mercenary group of Shu County, only the 14th squadron was disembarking for the time being. β
"The 14 squadron was ordered to occupy the entrance to the cave and secure the retreat. Squadrons 11-13 followed the ship and prepared to support the airport. β
βyessirοΌβ
The heralds kept running around, shaking Princess Sally's eyes, but this was the normal scene of the wartime headquarters, Princess Sally just shifted her attention to the landing ground under construction below, and did not interfere with Qin Shouchuang's command. Below the airship, which was originally the location of the cottage, countless torches and fires were lit, and there were even several high-power magic lamps, which were brightly lit by the ground that had been washed by the artillery fire. Under this bright light, two troops who obviously did not come with Qin Shouzhuo were forming a team, and on the temporary take-off and landing platform, a large airship was docking, and there were soldiers constantly carrying supplies down, and more airships were waiting in line behind it.
Under the flagship's light order, the airships waiting in the follow-up untied the cables one after another and began to raise the altitude, and the 14 squadron that had landed left some soldiers to continue to carry supplies, and the main force of the squadron quickly drove into the cave to establish lighting, ventilation and other facilities to level the road. It can be seen that not long after the 14th Squadron entered, the speed of action of the Black Tiger and the Blue Wolf Mercenary Group increased significantly.
"Report! The 8th Squadron has been in contact with the Fangs Squadron, and the hostages have been transferred in advance to the direction of the airport!"
"Is that really the case, what do these guys want to do?" Qin Shouzhuo frowned, "Captain of the herald, the signal 'Follow this ship' will be sent continuously, heading towards 283, moving forward at full speed, and we will also go to the Canyon Airport to have a look." β
........................
On the afternoon of September 21. Edwin followed the instructions of his eldest brother and led the captives to prepare all the supplies that General Duran needed, carried them onto the ship, and then went to carry the things that needed to be carried in the cottage, and even moved all his belongings to the airport. The night gradually deepened, Edwin was a little anxious, why didn't the eldest brother come, but he took the prisoners to almost empty everything that could be moved in the city, and almost all the things that were slightly useful in the cottage were on the boat, and they couldn't drag it on, and the team of overseers sent by General Duran beside him were already very impatient.
"Edwin is in charge, it's been a long time coming, do you have so many things to carry in your cottage?" A guy who looked like an officer in the lead, with a low gaze, approached Edwin's side and asked in a low voice, "...... It won't be ...... You are sympathetic to these heretics. β
"How...... How could it be," Edwin looked away with a weak heart, as a rough man, even if he had a bad brain, he knew that heresy was absolutely untouchable, otherwise even if the eldest brother had all kinds of strategies, it would be difficult to avoid the entire cottage being "purified" by those religious madmen. Edwin is not good at words, and when he encounters this kind of sincerity, he is not good at dealing with it, and he will soon be forced to be speechless. When he was scratching his ears and cheeks in a hurry, the opportunity to break the siege came.
"Boom Rumble ~~~"
A violent explosion was accompanied by a tremor of the ground, and the sand and gravel above the head were shaken and fell down, smashing on the heads of the people in the cave. But at this time, no one could care about this little thing, and the two who were originally tense looked at each other and ran towards their team.
"Omar, take your men and escort the villagers back to the camp, Eyler, you take two teams of people to stay and watch the airship, and the others will come with me !!" Edwin and his brigade of air thieves rushed to the mouth of the cave, even if he was as dull as him, he knew that most of the stockade outside the cave could not be saved.
The situation was as he expected, when Edwin took the main force of the air thieves to detour to the armory, obtain weapons, and then rushed to the entrance of the cave, not to mention the stockade outside the cave, even the cave road had been lost. The brothers, who happened to be nearby and arrived at the first time, were relying on the terrain to resist, but it was obvious that they were no match for the army in the tunnel, and the battle line was soon about to leave the hole. Once they broke through to the inside of the cave, the opponent was no longer so limited by the terrain and the formation was able to spread, instead of the current situation, where only the twenty or so people in the front row could make contact with the enemy.
As for why it is judged that the other party is an army? You look at the tower shield + short sword of the water, the shield and the sword have coats of arms, although the production is not exquisite, but the quality is absolutely superior, in a short period of time, Edwin has seen several brothers were cut off by the other party's sword, and they were hacked to death together with people.
The situation was urgent, and he couldn't think about it, Edwin picked up his mace, waved it in mid-air, and roared: "Rush up, drive these iron turtles out of our home, for the sake of Fang Shanzhai !!"
"Ahh!!h
A large group of air thieves, under the leadership of Edwin, roared and emboldened themselves, and at the same time pounced violently, stabilizing the already precarious front.
Originally, it was supposed to be like this.
Qin Shouzhuo's eighth squadron phalanx closed together to form a turtle formation similar to the one commonly used by the Roman legions on the blue star, and used the explosive defensive power to directly push out the air thieves defending the Yongdao. However, it was not much slower, and with these rabble, the fighters of the Eighth Squadron really didn't pay attention to it.
"Push!"
"Phew!"
With the command of the front-line officer, more than a dozen rows of soldiers in front and behind worked together, where could the air thieves stop it, and the battle line was directly pushed to the outermost side of the road, and even the soldiers in the first row were already standing in the cave. Just as he was about to make a move, he heard shouts from behind the air thief, and a strong man almost two meters tall, wielding a mace, pounced on a large group of rabble.
"Hold !! Steady"
"Huha!!"
"Bang ......"
The surging flow of people crashed against the phalanx, like waves crashing against the reef, splashing a little water, and the reef still stood there.
"Kill !!"
"Huha!!"
Taking advantage of the crowd crashing into the phalanx, the momentum slowed down, and the soldiers in the first row pushed their shields at the same time, pushing the enemy on the opposite side unsteadily, and then the short sword in their hands stabbed into the opponent's body.
"Ah!!h
There were bursts of screams, and at least a dozen air thieves fell in front of the phalanx, whether they were dead or alive, they didn't have time to rescue, and they were immediately trampled under the feet of the people behind. There were more corpses under their feet, many people were unstable on their feet, and they were found by the mercenary group again, and with an order, the shield was raised, the short sword was stabbed, and there were more than a dozen corpses.
"Everyone! Behind is the village, everyone's family members are inside, once this place is breached, do you think about what the consequences will be for the family?!" Edwin, who was repulsed again, shouted with his mace aloft, encouraging the morale of the people who were about to collapse, "Everyone hold on, the eldest brother will definitely find a way out, for the sake of the wife and children of the family, push this group of iron turtles out !! rush!!
"Rush, !!"
Kill the red-eyed air thieves, for the sake of their families, once again put life and death out of the way!
