Chapter 957: The First Wave of Shelling
Someone's plan is not complicated, as long as the brain is a little smarter than a monkey, it should be understandable. And the interest of the people in the Westwind Valley in the tactical platform cannot hide the emotions of gain and loss generated by the battle they will face next.
When he met with the people of Zephyr Valley for the first time, Lin learned about the history of Moon Bay and Zephyr Valley falling in love and killing each other from the iron and stone people at that time. In fact, not only these two settlements, but also three or five other settlements around them were competing with each other and plundering each other, and they maintained for a long time.
This does not refer to a period of more than ten years, decades, or hundreds of years, but a history of struggle of more than 1,000 years. For such a long time, it is not that Moon Bay is the only place that overpowers other settlements and treats others as a treasure trove for refining materials for itself. Over the course of a thousand years, each settlement has been strong and weak to each other.
But as soon as the powerhouses of each era accumulate to a certain level, they will leave and move on to the location of the next stage. At this time, the strength of the forces in the Valley of the West Wind, Moon Bay and other places will be reshuffled again. It is really thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi.
The glory of the past does not mean the strength of today. Moon Bay, which has a three-gem man - even if only part of its body is made of gemstones, and it is not purely ,——, it can be said that it is the strongest existence in this period, overpowering other settlements. It is impossible for the people of Westwind Valley not to feel aggrieved.
Now that I have gained new strength, I am quite confident in this new power. But it's one thing to have confidence, it's another thing to be able to achieve results. Therefore, it is inevitable that everyone will have such a feeling of gain and loss, and they will feel uneasy about the upcoming battle.
Such an uneasy mood was brought to the outpost of the battle, and Lin of course saw it all. Orion herself was also infected by this emotion, and she was too busy to take care of herself, so she couldn't take care of others.
Lin didn't think about motivating and inspiring everyone. Anyway, the next battle was to open the way by shelling, and those who were not killed by the artillery were cleaned up in close combat. Even if you are in a low mood and demoralized, as long as you shoot together according to the instructions, the results will not be any worse.
When the first wave of results comes, Lin believes that everyone in the West Wind Valley will naturally stabilize their confidence. As long as self-confidence is built, there shouldn't be much suspense in the next battle.
In short, in the midst of silence, everyone waited for Longtu's declaration of war. It's just that this time is a bit long. Although it can be seen from the tactical platform, Longtu is indeed heading towards Moon Bay.
This is this group of tin people without hearts, and this is a world without air. Otherwise, Lin thought that he would hear a lot of fluttering heartbeats in this silent environment now. The atmosphere is so oppressive right now.
As Longtu's point of light approached Moon Bay, Orion and the others were even more nervous and speechless. They have never sent their companions to declare war or negotiate before the enemy. If any hostile force does this, it is also their habit to kill the other side directly.
And they didn't want their companions to die at the hands of the Jewel People of Moon Bay. So there are many people who are already regretting it, regretting why they didn't raise objections at the beginning and gave away an excellent companion who could fight in vain.
When Longtu's point of light was on the map of the tactical platform and made contact with the target in Moon Bay, the tension of everyone in the Valley of Zephyr could be said to be at its highest point. It seemed as if a long time had passed since the two sides stood still, and in the next moment, Longtu began to move towards the planned location. And not only him, but also a considerable number of people in Moon Bay chased out.
'Triple rapid-fire ready!' Standing on the edge of the cliff and looking into the distance, Lin Gao raised his right hand and shouted.
Hearing the preparatory order, the remaining ironmen adjusted their shelling posture according to the previously given shelling parameters. Everyone knelt forward, staring in the direction of Moon Bay, as if they could see their target directly with the naked eye.
Despite being mobilized by Longtu, who declared war, the goal of the people of the Valley of Westwind has long been locked. As the enemy moved, everyone constantly fine-tuned the angle of their shelling.
'Launch! ’
Lin pressed his hand down, and the first round of shelling was interspersed with subtle gaps!
Because the caliber and length of the magnetic track cannons of the people in the Westwind Valley are different, the muzzle velocity and flight time are slightly different. After Lin gave the order, a row of countdown text appeared in everyone's field of vision as a hint of the shelling.
Everyone also attacked in waves according to their own parameters. But the time interval was only a few tenths of a second, and the distance of the attack was not long for the track cannon, and ordinary people couldn't tell the order of the shelling of the people in the Westwind Valley at all.
But it's not over yet, it's just the first volley, and the countdown is still ticking. O'Lane's people were nervously controlling the spare ammunition in the ammunition compartment, entering the gun, and loading at the same time.
There was no whistling sound, and certainly no tracer bullets to mark the trajectory of the ballistics. Before the people of the Valley of Westwind prepared for the second wave of shelling, the first wave of shelling was like raindrops, accurately naming everyone in Moon Bay.
The magnetic cannon shells designed by Lin are not like the flowering shells of the earth, and they will not explode after hitting the target. Even so, the mass projectile is not the first thing that will happen when it hits the target at high speed. Instead, the shock after the high-speed impact spread, affecting the entire target, that is, the elemental creatures of Moon Bay.
It's a little unlucky, the body material is not powerful, and it is not unheard of to be directly shaken away by such a shock.
The second round of shelling was held at the end of the first round, without a gap of a few seconds. In the perception of others, it is easy to misinterpret it as a laissez-faire operation, without any planned shelling, after all, the timing of the attack is not neat. But who would have thought that the part of Lin to be neat and consistent is actually the moment that hits the target. Such a requirement is unheard of for the multiverse, which is dominated by the Lost Land.
When everyone survived the second round of shelling, the third round of shelling appeared to be slightly more proficient. Whether it's targeting, land scouting. And because of staring at the countdown in the field of vision, and being engrossed in the calculations of shelling and shelling, no one has time to doubt and sing the praises of life.
If the number of people in Moon Bay is greater than that of Zephyr Valley, so some of the targets in the second round of shelling were not taken care of in the first round, then the third round of shelling is completely a supplement. On tactical platforms, the movement of targets also occurs only before the first round of shelling. What is the meaning behind these things, O'Lane doesn't have time to think about it.
Because after the end of the three rounds of shelling, the next thing is to divide the troops and attack!
Seven ordinary iron men activated the wheels on the soles of their feet, formed a column, jumped off the cliff from the gentle slope, and hurried away. They had to navigate around a massive crack in the ground to make their way back to the back of Moon Bay, so they didn't have much time left.
The rest of the people gathered around Orion, large and small, tall and thin. The leader of the Valley of Zephyr ordered two more ordinary companions to guard behind him on his left and right sides, forming a triangular formation. Heading straight for the settlement of Moon Bay.
