Chapter 611: A botched attack
If you have the advantage of being an information prophet, you will unknowingly fall into the trap and will not escape the trap.
Kane is suffering from this problem right now.
When the industrial area of Garin City was attacked by Naxxanar's Leap Air Raid, the first thing he thought of was that the Lich King had formed an alliance with the Eternal Dragon, and had obtained the energy and even mature technology needed for the Leap in advance.
And when the strike of the geological weapon appeared, he thought that the super-large ritual circle of the tomb of Sargeras, which Illidan used to deal with the Lich King, had been mastered by the Lich King.
Of course, what is more important now is the response to damage and threats than the truth behind the scenes.
But seriously speaking, the crisis is a comprehensive test of the system, a test of the ability of the fire brigade, and a test of the accumulation of peacetime.
Relying on the implementation and earnest implementation of safety regulations, work rules and other relevant regulations, as well as the drills of being prepared for danger in times of peace and regularly organizing anti-risk drills, the best performance in the industrial zone is the workers who go to work.
It was against this background that the raid took place in the early morning and the factories began to produce one after another, and after hearing the sirens and emergency announcements, people almost did not fall into a panic process, and immediately and orderly evacuated people and shut down equipment.
Four minutes after Naxana appeared in the sky over Garin, the flight unit had just begun to deliver, and the anti-aircraft artillery began to roar.
The height of this large fortress of the Scourge Army is not high, and it is only more than a thousand meters above the ground, not only to facilitate the raid, but also because of comprehensive technical reasons.
At high altitude, not only is the air thinner, the buoyancy is relatively low, and the magic power is also thinner, which is not conducive to the operation of such a large magical facility.
In addition, the flying units of the Scourge Corps themselves use the dual principles of aerodynamics and magical flotation to fly, otherwise it would be difficult for them to achieve good speed and maneuverability in the air due to their poor shape.
Generally speaking, in Kane's eyes, the technological development of the Scourge also has the common problem of most imbalances in the wizarding world.
This makes the brutal defeat of civilization even more exaggerated, such as the Eredar exiles who even have a jump ship, and the minions that are all over the ground by orcs armed with cold weapons.
Even if Naxxana doesn't consider the unconventional jump system, the floating fortress alone is not inferior to the air battleships that appear in Captain America in the Marvel universe, but the Scourge Army is not even a flying unit with the performance of the earliest jet fighters, let alone the Quint fighters.
On the other hand, on Kane's side, there are a total of three categories of anti-aircraft artillery, and the strongest is the magic guide cannon, which can be said to be a magical version of the high-energy particle cannon.
Although the current technology is still relatively lagging behind in terms of clustering, which makes the high-energy particles have a more serious spillage after ejection, it is also relatively speaking, only one level worse than the star cannon, which is enough to deal with the battle in the atmosphere.
The second is the missile cannon, which is also magic + technology, which realizes the delivery of missile-level shells across technical levels, and then autonomously deploys the function of flying.
The main purpose of this weapon is not to have a longer flight range, but to give the shell the ability to track the target autonomously.
This is a product that is only available under the guiding ideology of relatively low productivity and the requirement that every shell not miss as much as possible, although it is relatively time-consuming, and it is not as cool as the saturated firepower coverage of the area that Kane likes, but it is more suitable for the moment.
The last is the conventional anti-aircraft gun, which is relatively the least powerful, but the most expensive of the three weapons, and Kane's instructions for this are to reuse the cartridge casing.
Therefore, the cartridge case material is relatively expensive. As for the impact of reloading shells on the cannon chamber, let's put it this way, there are special shaping mages, as well as alchemy rune spell protection, even if the cannon barrel process is relatively backward, the life span is very long.
The anti-aircraft artillery positions protecting the city of Garin were naturally not in the city, but outside the city.
This line of thinking is obviously incompatible with the current era, and it is a layout born from the idea of modern warfare that does not take hard city defense as the main means.
It was also because of this that the artillery positions were not destroyed in the subsequent geological strikes.
As a result, air forces such as Naxanar suffered tons of damage from anti-aircraft artillery positions, and then were completely destroyed in a short period of time.
There were four multi-purpose artillery positions in the city of Garin, one each in the east, west, north and south.
Kane, who has always hated a lot of but not fine, played multi-function on artillery, mainly because he was deeply impressed by Germany's 88 anti-aircraft guns during World War II when he was an ordinary person in his early years, so the concept of air and ground weapons at the same time has a lot of feelings.
The secondary doppelganger has no memories, but it has this habit.
When a well-layered artillery cluster strikes, the first flying units to be unlucky are Gargoyles and other flying units that leave the Floating Fortress.
They are so dense that dumplings generally rush out of the terraces in different directions, and from a distance, it seems that there is a gray cloud around the floating fortress.
But soon, the gray cloud turned into a fire cloud, and the guided shells were able to actively compare the surrounding situation and choose the time of explosion, so these shells basically exploded after drilling into the monster group, and the bursting fragments, powerful shock waves, and special flames with the power of holy light turned a large area of airspace into a death zone.
It can be said that the first wave of attack of the flying units of the Scourge Army was destroyed in half before it was formed.
Of course, Naxxana was also colored, and a huge bomb was dropped from its huge body.
The imitation 88 gun of the anti-aircraft artillery group is a rapid-fire gun, which tries to intercept it, but the interception effect is average.
Mainly in this era, it is generally customary to make objects stupid and simple, and the large bombs dropped by the floating fortress can be used as mass weapons, and it is very difficult to smash its round shell.
On the contrary, it is the floating fortress itself, which is easier to break.
In this regard, it can only be said that the Scourge are too confident in the defenses of their floating fortresses. I thought that because of the large energy barrier and protective force field, it was very resistant to beating.
As a result, he was taught to be a man by a click-and-break blow attack similar to the Constellation-class battleship's Divine Needle Light Spear attack.
In four directions, the timing of the launch deviated slightly, but all of them hit and paid off.
A wave of blows caused severe penetrating injuries and destroyed three important components, especially the destruction of the central control core, causing Naxxana to directly lose the ability to levitate, spraying light and flames, and staggering to the ground like a flying saucer.
This floating fortress is not a saucer type, it is much fuller than a saucer, and there are certain differences in the specific style of each one. After all, it is purely handmade DIY, and there is no lack of personality.
Even if the Floating Fortress is finished, the threat is still not to be underestimated. After all, it is an absolute disaster for such a big lump to fall into a densely built area of the city.
And the Scourge Army that controls the Floating Fortress definitely has the pride to die together, so the magic guide cannon did not miss the opportunity to mend the knife.
This was apparently a technical blow to stop some of the Floating Fortress's output devices, and if the other part was uncontrollable, the Floating Fortress would crash into the wilderness outside the city on its own.
Under the continuous blows of the sword, Naxxana was naturally very miserable, the top deck and terrace were spraying magic light and flames, as well as entrained people or objects, and the severity of the explosion inside could be imagined, not to mention the thick smoke.
Eventually, Naxanar crashed into a lake southwest of Garin City.
It was in the process of its crash that the geology struck.
Kane later speculated that the original attack plan of the Scourge was mostly to first launch a wave of geological strikes in order to destroy the facilities of Garin City as much as possible. When people were fighting the earthquake relief, Naxana appeared, and the situation was even worse.
It's a pity that the operation delay of many devices in this era is too serious, and the long-distance communication and coordination ability is also average, so it was originally a wave of sharp blows that were closely connected, and it was played off, so that it became Naxxana to deliver food first.
The truth is that this is indeed the case, and it is true that the Eternal Dragon participated in and helped solve the problem of ultra-long-distance timely communication.
However, the operation time of the super-large ritual circle is too unfixed, if it is fast, it can be done in 1 hour, and if it is slow, it may not be able to be activated in 12 hours.
Coupled with the obstruction of external forces, it was not completed as planned.
In fact, it is less than 20 minutes, and for people in this era, such a large operation project, and an hour and a half is not a big deal at all.
But when you meet an opponent like Kane, it's really a big problem.
However, Kane does not have a very good way to deal with geological weapons, the facilities in Garin City, whether it is the structure or the selection of materials and construction, are absolutely superior, but you have technology, I have divine skills, this kind of geological attack belongs to the category of magical strikes, artificially created earthquakes within the area, the principle cannot be studied in detail, otherwise serious blowing characteristics will be found. When encountered, I can only admit that I am unlucky.
After receiving the news, Kane immediately issued the guiding ideology of 'personnel first'.
The grassroots backbone below is also relatively well implemented.
As a result, not only did he complain, but he became famous.
The main reason is that the people in this world are relatively easy to serve, and happiness is comparable, look at the victims of the Lordaeron Kingdom, and then look at yourself, and immediately feel that your heart is very balanced. In the words of the people: "Our lord is powerful, effective, conscientious, and loving." "Kane has the title of crown prince these four, and it came out in such a wave.
Of course, Kane himself didn't get so upset.
I was not discouraged or discouraged by successive losses and setbacks.
Even, to some extent, he felt that the disaster was not as bad as he expected.
After all, he knew that this Azeroth was itself dark-oriented.
Not to mention anything else, the group of Eternal Dragons alone, compared with the original historical line, has a serious deviation.
The Eternal Dragon of the original history line was distorted by the power of time and space and became the opposite of the guardian of time and space, and he encountered the Eternal Dragon who was distorted by the power of time and space and the power of the void at the same time.
He certainly won't forget how he came into the world.
In his prophetic memory, there is no one that tells the Eternalsaurus roaming multiple timelines and the multiverse, although theoretically they can do it, or have the ability to realize it, but they are only their own protagonists, not the protagonists of Azeroth, and what their stories are, there is not much explanation, but a large blank space.
Blank space means space for reverie and infinite possibilities.
However, it is worth noting that the chronological dragons, whether they are bronze dragons or eternal dragons, have never been able to play a key role on the big stage where the heroes of Azeroth shine. This is actually a side confirmation.
It's not that they don't want to go around in style, but their abilities are relatively limited, and they are not as good as the crazy Blue Dragon King Malygos, at least they have become a meteor and deduced the crisis of unsuccessful magic to destroy the world.
If you don't have the ability to be particularly outstanding, the story behind it, relatively speaking, half is not worth mentioning. This is Kane's perception of the original history line Eternal Dragon.
But in this world, the performance of that eternal dragon was a little impressive to him. Although it is also generally thrilling, it shows the concept of 'the water is quite deep'.
Time and space are closely combined with the void, and if this makes a big move, I'm sorry for these two concepts.
As a result, there was a single-handed attack in Steinbrad, Alterana.
It's been a few years since then, and there hasn't been any movement.
According to his usual encounters, Kane felt that the other party was holding back his big move, and the next time he appeared, he would be able to give him a big surprise.
So is it this time? Or is it this time? Kane doesn't know yet. But he at least knows that the trend of history has been completely crooked to the point where he doesn't know whose grandmother's house he is......
