1146 Consecutive Combat
readx;
The bombardiers opened the hatches one after another, pushing down one after the other. The pen www.biquge.info watched the heavy fire bombs flutter and sway in the air, falling towards the ground like a series of raindrops, and soon in the crisp sound of clay pots shattering, the camp of the Durrant soldiers turned into a sea of fire, and a large group of soldiers were burned alive.
Due to the presence of the longbow in the hands of the Durrants, the flying monsters did not reduce their altitude, and the knights carefully controlled the monsters to escort the hot air balloon, while trying not to lower themselves into the effective range of the opponent. At such a distance, only those flying demonic beasts with a fifth-order or higher had enough range to attack the ground, and soon explosions rang out one after another, and the Durrant soldiers were in a mess.
General Hua Rong tried his best to stop the chaos among his soldiers, and he sent all his cronies out to stabilize the increasingly unstable morale of the army. However, the real threat did not come from the air, after the attack of the three divisions in the air, the cavalry division of the Dragon Soul Legion, the Earth Dragon Division, the two land demonic beast divisions of the elves, and countless infantry units surrounded the Durrant army besieging the city from all directions.
Fang Ruitao had long known that Kun Gong City was besieged after it was occupied, and in order to destroy the enemy as much as possible, he had been reluctant not to send the Elven Knights out, and ordered the ground troops to outflank it in a big detour, and it was not until this time that the enemy had become a turtle in the urn, and he began a general attack on the whole front.
The 300,000-strong army belonging to the three legions was surrounded by regiments, and their fate was already conceivable at this time. In the other three directions, due to the small number of the Durrant army, the encircling forces first began to squeeze, forcing them to flee in the direction of the main position, so that the encirclement was becoming more and more adequate.
Seeing that the elite troops of the Shouyang Army were surrounded, the Durant Army, which had fallen into chaos, did not even have the strength to resist. Hua Rong waved the weapon in his hand in vain, and shouted hoarsely: "Where is Kodina, why doesn't his harassing troops reinforce us, where is the backup" Unfortunately, Hua Rong didn't know that the reason why Fang Ruitao's army came so late was because the ground troops cooperated with the air forces and had already annihilated all those harassing troops, and even the corps commander Kodina, who was the commander, was killed on the spot by Chunxiang.
The encirclement of the Shouyang army began to slowly compress, and Di Matt lost no time in moving the magic cannon and the machine gun out of Kun Gong City, and swept wildly against the Durrant soldiers on the plain, venting the frustration caused by the defense. Under the attack of powerful firepower, the Durrant soldiers who had lost their fighting spirit were completely panicked, and they had long since lost the ** to fight.
Seeing that the defeat was irretrievable, Hua Rong sighed and swung his sword and killed himself. Having lost their commander, the remaining Durrant soldiers had no choice but to surrender. Due to the loss of the siege, coupled with the aerial bombardment and the encirclement and suppression on the ground, only 130,000 people surrendered to the Shouyang army in the end, but fortunately, in order to attack the city, these were all attacked on foot, and the war horses captured by the Shouyang army were about 300,000.
In this battle, the Shouyang army won a complete victory, but those magic spearmen who had long been out of strength could no longer stand up. For these tired heroes, the other warriors enthusiastically stepped forward to help, carrying them into the city to rest, and the task of cleaning up the battlefield was completely handed over to the new troops.
"Young Master, we've completed our mission. Gao Fucheng came to Fang Ruitao excitedly and reported to him.
Looking at Gao Fucheng and Di Matt with tired faces, Fang Ruitao nodded and said, "It's very good, I misjudged the enemy's marching speed and attack intensity, and as a result, you are under so much pressure. You are all good, tell the officers of all ranks, hand over all the names of meritorious service awards, and I will reward them heavily, double the rewards for those wounded in battle, and give more pensions for the dead and disabled, and arrange for their families to be placed on the farms of the glorious military families. ”
"It's the young master, everyone will be very happy to hear this news. Dimatt said with a smile on his face.
Gao Fucheng said with some worry beside him: "Young master, our two troops have suffered a lot of losses in this battle, and it is estimated that they have temporarily lost their combat effectiveness." ”
"Oh, is the loss serious," Fang Ruitao frowned.
Di Matt and Gao Fucheng glanced at each other and said: "It is indeed very serious, although the number of dead will not be too many, but there are many wounded, and it is estimated that there are less than 4,000 people with combat ability." ”
Fang Ruitao nodded and said, "That's it, I'll leave a division and cooperate with you to defend Kun Gong City." This will become the rear supply base of our army, and it is estimated that there will be no more major battles. ”
"Young Master means that the army continues to advance," Gao Fucheng asked.
Fang Ruitao nodded: "Originally, everyone was already tired, and I planned to set off again tomorrow." But now that the army is fast, we will send troops to attack Dima City when the Durrant army is still unclear about the battle here. Now that they have a large number of captured cloud horses, it is believed that it will not be a problem to continue the march, at least their physical strength will not be excessively consumed anymore. ”
"In this way, we must guard this supply base for the young master. "Gaofu City Road.
Fang Ruitao nodded: "I'll leave it to you here, let the soldiers take good care of their injuries, and when this battle is over, I will personally help you expand the group, and the new weapons will supplement you in the future." ”
"Yes, young master. Both of them responded excitedly and loudly.
Fang Ruitao really didn't talk nonsense, when he was cleaning up the battlefield, the attacking troops were already on the road. Yue Yun's cavalry division, plus Zhao Guoxian's first division, brought enough cloud horses and rushed towards Dima City, and the air troops of the Elven Knights had already attacked first.
Due to the loss of Yunma, those Durrant soldiers who were lucky enough to slip through the net could not go far at all. In addition, due to the chaotic situation at that time, many people did not know which direction to run in at all, so there were many people who took the wrong path, and many people even ran in the direction of Snow Wolf Pass.
Because of these circumstances, Dima City does not know the front-line battle situation now, because of the absolute confidence in the 300,000 army, the defense in Dima City is very lax at this time, they do not think that their side will have the possibility of defeat, in their opinion, the charging power of 300,000 cavalry is enough to defeat the opponent's million infantry, and the Shouyang army does not have so many people at all.
Under these circumstances, the Elven Knights were able to carry out an attack that had never been seen before on the Celestial Continent. A large number of hot air balloons loaded with elven soldiers headed towards Dima City at great speed, and after three hours, they had reached the sky over the city.
