Chapter 518: The front line collapses

Land battlefields.

Without the scouts to confirm the coordinates of the shelling, the Nordic artillery units now need to face exactly the same situation as the dwarven artillery before them.

However, in the process of calibration again and again, the excellent talent of the dwarves was quickly revealed, coupled with Jin Ming's command and talent buff blessing.

A round of high-explosive shell fire suppression swept directly over the past, and the scattered shrapnel made the Nordic artillery units pay the price of blood on the spot.

After finding the coordinates of the shelling, where will the dwarf artillery unit be polite to the other side, and the crazy fire suppression is officially launched at this moment.

I have to say that this wave of cover came in time.

With a roar, the speed of the steel-jawed beast hadron completely exploded, taking advantage of the opportunity of the enemy artillery unit being suppressed by heavy firepower, it rushed forward in one go!

In the roar, the huge beast had already rushed in front of him, and the seemingly incomparably solid semi-permanent trench seemed powerless in front of the steel-jawed beast Hadron. @精华\/Shuge Error-free Debut~~

In an instant, rubble splattered.

At that time, the Nordic soldiers who were cowering behind the trenches were mercilessly crushed to death on the spot, and the screams on the battlefield were endless, and the Nordic northern front completely collapsed in an instant!

Even Byron Weir, after seeing this scene, his heartbeat slowed down by half a beat, and he could only command his army to fight and retreat.

And Wang Meng, who had already crushed the border defense line on the opposite side, naturally would not be relentless, and the main army in the rear chased after him mercilessly at this moment.

The border fortress is not far from this line of defense, and it only takes ten minutes to ride a horse.

Byron Weir withdrew all the way to the fortress with his men, but from the beginning, he did not expect it to withstand enemy attacks.

At the same time, he had already had a showdown with Kiel Fito about this matter, and he made it clear.

Not to mention such a rudimentary defense line, even if it is two or three times tighter, it can't withstand the rampage of that strategic-level giant beast unit!

The clarion call for retreat sounded quickly, and the collapse of the Northern Front and the fall of the rear fortresses were almost instantaneous.

At the same time, Ares in the air withdrew without looking back after forcing back the three Kenrads who were fighting with him.

At this time, the three of Kenrad were in a bad state, and all of them were injured.

Although the restriction of faith power makes it impossible for Ares to freely perform divine arts, his own strength can still steadily suppress the three of them.

It can be said that if it weren't for the tacit cooperation that the three of Kenrad have cultivated over the years, coupled with the unique combined attack tactics of the Swift Eagle riders to support here, they would have been unilaterally crushed by Ares.

The expeditionary army quickly settled in the northern border fortress of the empire, and after officially taking over, Wang Meng quickly realized that he had just grabbed an empty shell.

Obviously, Byron Weir, who had been prepared for a long time, would not leave them with any supplies.

Not to mention this fortress, even the citizens of the city behind have all been transferred in advance.

In the face of the strategic-level threat here, Kir Fito can no longer continue to care about the gains and losses of one city and one place, and to preserve the troops, he must release when it is time to release them.

This is also the most rational approach in the current situation.

Wang Meng, who had been mentally prepared for a long time, did not show much loss on his face at the moment, for their expeditionary army, even if it was just an empty shell, it was valuable.

Because, it means that they have successfully captured a frontline stronghold.

If they want to conquer the enemy's territory, they must first have a stronghold, and with a stronghold, they can accumulate troops and food on the front line, and lay the foundation for the next long battle.

However, just like Byron Weir's previous evaluation of this fortress, as a crucial border fortress, this fortress is indeed simple enough, and the geographical location is quite bad, no wonder the opposite side will abandon it so simply.

Next, Wang Meng did not rush to make the next move, and while letting the army under his command rest, he also let some soldiers in the army ride fast horses to meet the logistics troops in the rear.

Wait until the supplies are stocked up in this fortress and gone. (This chapter is not finished!) )

Chapter 518: The front line collapses

After worrying, Wang Meng began to arrange the next things unhurriedly.

Imperial Imperial City.

Yesterday, Kir ��fito received news of the fall of the northern border fortress that had been breached by enemy troops, and then he was upset and did not sleep well all night.

At this time, his eyes were already bloodshot.

Although he had been mentally prepared for a long time, this obviously did not prevent him from being in a bad mood.

The number of beauties on the bed did not keep him happy, and some of them were just tyrannical vents.

Kiel Fito rubbed his head, and just as he was thinking about whether to rest a little longer, a guard officer rushed in with a report in his hand and a panicked face.

At this time, he no longer cares about anything that is arrogant or untransgressive.

"The Emperor! The latest news from the eastern border, the port of Tolfo, attacked by an unknown fleet, has fallen!! ”

Hearing this sudden bad news, Kir Fito's sleepiness disappeared in an instant.

He struggled to get up, but his brain exploded, his body went limp, and he sat down on the bed again, and it took him a while to react.

"No, my brain is so messy."

He pressed his temple with one hand, and at this time, Kiel Fito's brain was already in a mess.

"The port of Tolford to the east has been attacked by an unknown fleet? Is it the navy of the Huaxia people?! Then the fleet I sent out before ......"

As soon as he thought of this, Kir Fito's originally unsightly face was already gloomy to the extreme.

This attack on the port of Tolfo has to start from before.

After successfully annihilating the enemy's steel fleet, the Xia Hai Fleet, located on the sea, found the charts from the supply fleet in the rear.

After confirming the enemy's position, Lu Meng can be said to be unscrupulous.

However, their fleet, after all, made a roundabout voyage along the outer seas of the battlefield map, so even on the premise of knowing the location of the target, it still took a lot of time to go around the rear of the enemy empire.

Subsequently, locking on the enemy's port of Torfo, the Xia Hai fleet under Lü Meng naturally launched an artillery bombardment directly from the sea without mercy.

In the face of coastal strikes from the sea fleet, the side that has been deprived of naval combat power basically has no power to resist.

Not to mention, Kir Fito's empire did not even build a single shore defense gun.

After several rounds of shelling, the Xia Hai flotilla, having forcibly destroyed the defense of the port, began to land.

You must know that above the warships of the Xia Hai Fleet, there is not only naval combat power.

In consideration of the needs of subsequent landing operations and occupations, it is natural that the warships of such expeditions should be equipped with army combat power.

And such a unit is generally called the Marine Corps.

For a city near the sea, the sea is simply a natural barrier, because in the player's own territory, there are basically few indigenous enemies on the sea, and even if they do, it is impossible to defeat them.

Therefore, natural disasters such as tsunamis aside, cities near the sea are comfortable most of the time, and there is no need to send too many troops to garrison them, leaving a small fleet to cope with everything.

And now, that comfort has been shattered completely.

How could a small fleet be the opponent of the Xia Hai Fleet, and it would be easily crushed to death.

Then the Marines of Great Xia quickly landed and stormed the harbor, which was about to be bombarded into ruins.

The garrison in the city wanted to resist, but the ordinary cannons, firepower and range were completely better than the main ship guns on the battleship. Error-free updates @

After a round of shelling, they were directly deprived of the power to resist.

The overwhelming superiority brought by the Xia Hai Fleet made this coastal attack operation go extremely smoothly, and it occupied this coastal city almost at a speed like a blitzkrieg.

Kiel Fito is also lax, although it is possible that his coastal cities have not had any accidents in the past few decades, so he does not think he needs to invest too much money and manpower in this area.

。 (This chapter is not finished!) )

Chapter 518: The front line collapses

But now, he has paid the price for his momentary slackness.

Defense facilities have always been about being prepared.

This is the same as raising an army, raising troops for a thousand days and using soldiers for a while, this is the same reason.

The offensive of the Xia Hai fleet did not stop there, and after quickly replenishing supplies in this coastal city, they soon launched a further sweep of other coastal cities.

In the eyes of Great Xia's fleet, the coastal cities on this entire line are already lambs to the slaughter, and Lu Meng naturally will not let go of any of them.

By the time Kir Fito received the news, the artillery fire of his second coastal city had been completely ignited!

"Build battleships! Pass the order, quickly build a battleship for Lao Tzu! ”

Inside the splendid palace, Kiel Fito's mood collapsed instantly, and he could only be heard roaring loudly there.

Recently, a series of bad news has made his mood extremely unstable, and the main fleet sent out before is obviously hopeless, and there is a ninety percent probability that it has been completely wiped out.

Now that the enemy's steel fleet has sailed under his nose, if he can't form a fleet to counterattack, then in the face of the enemy's sea fleet, he can only stand and be beaten!

Feeling the irritability of his own emperor, the ministers standing below at this time were all sweating profusely.

Originally, at such a time, if Kiel Fito wanted to build a battleship, the Chancellor of the Exchequer would definitely be the first to jump out and cry poor, but now, he does not have the courage to do so.

After all, if you are angered at this juncture, it is really a dead end.

But there are some things that have to be said even if you bite the nail on the head.

"Emperor, to build a battleship, it will take two or three years to say the least, and now, I'm afraid...... I'm afraid it's too late. ”

At this time, it was the Minister of Military Affairs who spoke, and he was also a member of the important ministers under Kir Fito.

"Then you say, what do you say?!"

Hearing this, the Minister of Military Affairs said after a little thought: "Emperor, Emperor, according to Wei Chen's opinion, the coastal region should be prepared for a long-term war of resistance, it is better to let the shipyards of several other coastal cities step up the manufacture of destroyers, let us have a certain number of warships first, and form a fleet is the most important thing." ”

"As for the problem of insufficient firepower, we can adopt the method of fighting, focusing on gaining time, not fighting hard with the other side, and then let the shipyard build as many heavy firepower warships as possible in the time we have won to make up for the shortcomings in firepower."

Hearing this proposal, Kiel Fito also felt that this was a feasible solution, so he quickly agreed to the proposal.

"Okay, just do it, let the shipyards everywhere execute it immediately!"

Speaking of this, Kir Fito seemed to remember something, his voice first paused, and then he spoke again: "In addition, all the fishing boats and civilian ships of sufficient size should be requisitioned, and after improvement, they will be put into the army!" There are also mines, all of which will be laid out for me!! ”

Although the small warships that have been improved from civilian ships and fishing boats are certainly much worse than serious warships in terms of comprehensive combat strength, the current situation is better than nothing.

After the Xia Hai Fleet swept three coastal cities in a row, the minefields arranged by the Nordic side were the first to affect them.

It has to be said that this simple and crude method is indeed useful.

Although the experienced salamander warriors could dismantle those mines, the other party's move still greatly affected the sweeping efficiency of the Xia Hai fleet.

Although it is very reluctant, the large number of civilian modified warships and minefields can be regarded as an obstacle to a certain extent.

Lu Meng, who realized that the other party had already launched an action, also became cautious in the follow-up attack, and it was better not to waste it in the case of a stable advantage.

As a result, the situation on the southern border of the empire fell into a relatively stable state for a short time. @精华\/Shuge*First update~~

But Kiel Fito clearly doesn't feel any joy in it.

The coast of the eastern border is temporarily stable, but the border area to the north of his empire is blown up!
