Chapter 612: The Dragon Falls
The smoke from the cannon's airburst bombs, the smoke and blood mist from the ground covered with steel balls, the lightning and frost white mist from the detonation of the magic guide were all dispersed in the roar of the Heavenly Hindrance Star's fall.
The huge spherical meteorite was not fast enough to be ignited by the air, but the storm and tremor caused by the 10,000-meter fall were still deadly.
The king of the kingdom of Fran was covered in a shattered meteorite, and with him disappeared his personal guards, as well as half of the poor elven archers.
Because of their relatively backward position, many people in the aristocratic army made a misjudgment, believing that they were attacked from the rear.
But no one misunderstood the martyrdom of the king of the kingdom of Fran, and everyone knew that the supreme commander of this army had died, and chaos broke out uncontrollably.
Some rushed forward, others attacked from both sides, because in their narrow field of vision, they saw only a thin wall of people on the enemy.
They subconsciously think that what they see is a weak point, just two rows of human walls, and they don't break through casually.
The aliens behind the elves behaved differently, and the elves came to the rescue, trying to rescue people from under the rubble, because there were their people below, and because the king of the kingdom of Fran had not yet paid.
The humanoid lizards looked at each other and immediately turned around and ran away, they always ran away when things didn't go well, no one found it strange.
The barbarian was stupid, completely unaware of what to do.
The bearded dwarf hesitated for a moment, and began to step forward to save people, this year's life is not easy, if they can't make money, they will not be able to participate in the encirclement of the abyss next year, it is suspected of blasphemy.
The horned green-haired monsters and centaurs all had one-hoofed feet, and they didn't dare to go near the rubble-strewn ground, so they could only carefully go around the sides.
When they bypassed the meteorite area, they found that the soldiers of the Red Coats had already completed the four-kilometer journey and began to close from the left and right flanks to the middle.
"Why do they really want to surround us?"
Faced with the questions of his clansmen, the centaur leader drew his javelin and said in a deep voice, "No matter what they think, we just need to break through the enemy's formation." ”
"Rush over and we'll retreat."
The centaur leader flew on all fours, raised his javelin and shouted, "Follow me, rush forward!" ”
Seeing the charge of the strongest leader, the centaurs no longer hesitated, and they let out all kinds of strange screams and rumbled towards the redcoat soldiers.
Without too much hesitation, the officer of the Redcoat Army gave the order: "The machine gun team is deployed on the spot, the left and right flanks outflank the line for defense, and the interspersed team continues to advance!" ”
The orders to respond were planned in advance, and the enemy's response did not exceed expectations, so that officers and soldiers were able to proceed in a step-by-step manner according to their training.
The hard work of digging the canals did not detract from the rigorous training, and the Redcoats quickly deployed infantry formations and machine-gun positions.
After the centaur assault to a distance of one hundred and fifty meters, the order for a salvo was given.
The first to roar were ten sets of machine guns, and in the eyes of the centaurs, ten beautiful golden chrysanthemums suddenly bloomed in front of the enemy's ranks.
It's just that when the golden petals swept over, they brought up a fatal blood-colored flower.
When the oil girl Tetsumaru chose a nine-millimeter caliber weapon for the infantry, the machine gun was naturally an even more exaggerated twenty-millimeter, which happened to be stuck on the dividing line between guns and guns.
The bullets of the large gun are naturally very large, and the length of the bullet of the machine gun is exactly two hundred millimeters, which is more than the length of the middle finger of an adult man to the root of the palm.
The machine gun bullet was held in his hand, like a little shrunken kunai, heavy and weighty.
The extremely heavy bullet was propelled by gunpowder, and at an initial velocity of 840 meters, it flew over a distance of 150 meters, and effortlessly shattered the three-millimeter-thick armor.
The warhead burrowed into the centaur's muscular body, penetrated the human body without any rolling, and then pierced the next unlucky egg, and finally settled in the body of the third person.
Despite not rolling at all, the cavity created by the impact was larger than the thickness of the half-body of the centaure, tearing directly through the flesh and causing a washbasin-sized hole in the place where it was pierced.
Bright red flesh and blood splashed all over the sky, and golden tracer bullets passed through the human body and blood mist, turning the follow-up centaurs on their backs, and chiseling out flesh alleys in the impact queue.
The riflemen then launched a salvo, this time too close and the line was too thin, so they fired in a straight line.
Rows of bullets swept past, like spears more than a hundred meters stabbed into the enemy's body, and the braking effect of the nine-millimeter bullets was extremely strong, and almost all the centaurs in the first row were swept down.
Only a dozen seconds passed, and a dead line piled up with centaur corpses appeared at a distance of about a hundred meters.
The rich aura of death was so terrifying that the leading centaur leader stopped, and he looked back at the blood mist steaming death line sluggishly, and the whole person was stupid.
The oil girl Iron Pill Shadow clone who was exercising the right of supervision on the front couldn't help but shake her head, thousands of people and the dense fire of ten machine guns actually let go of the centaur leader who rushed to the first place.
It's not his luck that bursts the charts, it's the deep-rooted thinking of the red-clothed soldiers, who have the lord's doppelganger by his side, and can't steal the limelight from the lord.
The head of the enemy leader should be plucked by the lord.
Glory to the lords.
Thousands of people actually let go of the enemy leader in such a tacit understanding, but they beat the centaurs who followed him into mud.
The centaur leader in front of the death line was dumbfounded, and stayed in front of the death line in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking.
The centaurs behind the death line were so frightened that all four legs were trembling, and there were not a few who collapsed directly to the ground, and there was no idea of attacking at all.
The red-clothed army did not shoot after the reload, and thousands of people paid attention to the shadow clone of the oil girl Tie Pill who was supervising the battle out of the corner of their eyes, and the flank battlefield actually calmed down.
Under the gaze of thousands of people, she reached out and took the bazooka on the back of the soldier next to her, opened the mechanical scope, and then pulled the trigger.
Under the impact of the dazzling red copper jet, the centaur leader disappeared from the chest up, and although the shape of death was miserable, it was not painful at all.
Thousands of red-clad soldiers suddenly felt that their thoughts had been cleared, and they let out a high-pitched victory cheer.
The oil girl Tetsumaru pulls a rocket from the soldier's back and helps him reload his ammunition.
As the oil girl Tetsumaru was about to put the weapon back on the soldier's back, a fierce roar was heard from the sky, and the dragon knights finally arrived.
The so-called dragon knight, in fact, the main body of the battle has nothing to do with the person above.
He is responsible for contacting the dragon with food, shelter, washing and other services, understanding orders when the dragon is resting, communicating and explaining when attacking, and finally indicating the target of the attack.
In short, the Dragon Knight is a full-time combat assistant, not a combat power officer at all, so what they say doesn't count.
Because of this, it is normal for the dragons to sleep comfortably, ignoring that the king has already set out, how can a master like the dragon appear before the king appears?
However, no one expected that the king would issue an order when he appeared, and people would be destroyed by the strange magic of the other party.
The king has a triggering magic, and the bad news of death reaches the rear in an instant.
It wasn't until the news of the king's sudden death came that the dragons realized that something was wrong and hurried over, and some of them didn't even bring their own knights.
High in the sky, the dragons saw a spectacle they had never seen before, three thin lines surrounding tens of thousands of troops, and two more stretches were in the final stages of encirclement.
The dragons couldn't understand why an army of tens of thousands of people would be blocked by three thin lines, and although the thin lines kept shining, there was no magic there.
In the dragon's concept, they are either powerful or large enough to threaten them, so no one is aware of the danger.
Moreover, the dragon immediately realized that such a thin formation of the enemy was actually the most suitable for its own dragon breath to exert lethality.
The forty dragons coordinated a little, assigned their respective attack ranges, and then they formed formation.
The dragons form an irregular quadrangle, which coincides with the four thin lines on the ground that have just been closed, and swoops clockwise.
The leader dragon was draped in red scales and had six long, sharp horns, like a king's crown, and it was the largest in size.
The red dragon emitted a dragon roar, a terrifying cry in human ears, which was actually the dragon's high-frequency language, and the language vocabulary conveyed was extremely large.
The two-second hiss accurately expresses the timing and order of the attacks, as well as the position of each dragon and the length of responsibility.
Because the thin line was more than fourteen kilometers long, forty dragons needed to allocate three hundred and fifty meters of attacks, and it was difficult to ensure that they were cleaned up with just one dragon breath attack.
Not every dragon has enough lung capacity and magic power to attack three hundred meters in a row, and some relatively young dragons can barely reach even fifty meters.
Fortunately, the dragons on this expedition are all qualified warriors, so the leading red dragon chooses an attack distance of two hundred meters.
After completing the first attack, all the dragons pull up and dive down again, and perform a second attack on the gap six hundred meters away, and under the cyclic dragon formation, all rebels will be covered by dragon breath.
In addition to these tactical arrangements, there is also an angry declaration that is also compressed in this dragon roar.
[These lowly humans, they actually let the great dragon mission fail, and use the most terrifying dragon breath to destroy them!!] 】
The dragon's language was beyond the range of human hearing, but it was not beyond the hearing of the oil girl Tetsumaru, so the red dragon clearly told the enemy about its tactics.
The oil girl Tetsumaru did not give any specific orders, because the dragon's tactics were also within the scope of the tactical training that the cardinal military had received first.
When the dragons made a clockwise flight, all the Redcoat soldiers knew what they were going to do, and they took the bazookas in their hands.
The officers reminded loudly: "Don't worry, the rockets have a limited range, wait for the dragon to dive before you can hit them, don't shoot in advance!" ”
"Hold steady, aim, and wait for the order to attack again!"
"No early attack without an order!"
Despite all the officers' warnings not to attack early, when the dragon began to dive, quite a few rockets were fired early.
The dragon's size and dragon might put a lot of pressure on the soldiers, so more than half of the performance was wrong, but the dragons were more frightened.
Just as the dragon was about to swoop down to attack height, a flash of fire burst out from the thin line on the ground, and white smoke grew up like sprouted mushrooms.
At first, the dragon dismisses this, and when the dragon dives, the small enemy should be like this, struggling helplessly and adding a little fun to the great dragon.
But the sudden appearance of danger intuition made the dragon stunned, he had such a feeling before, but the hexagonal snake demon of the abyss demons, how could these small humans be such a big threat?
The red dragon has the highest level, and its intuition is the sharpest, even distinguishing the number of threats, and then it is dumbfounded, it senses that the whole thin line is threatened.
Dragons who seem to be so proud that they are brain-dead are never really fools, otherwise, how could the dragon clan survive to this day?
Sensing the danger instinctively, the forty dragons uniformly abandoned their dive and dragon's breath attacks, spreading their folded wings and using the power of the wind to dodge enemy attacks.
Seeing that the dragon had been disrupted by the scattered attacks, the officer of the Redcoat Corps no longer tried the best range and ordered: "Shoot!" Knock those big lizards down! ”
The soldiers who were waiting for the order immediately fired their weapons in their hands, they were the soldiers with the best psychological quality, so their hands were more stable and their aim was more accurate.
After the dragon had already dodged, the new, more targeted attacks were difficult to dodge, and sparks erupted from the dragon.
The official name of the rocket is the hollow charge shaped energy piercing rocket, through the conical charge of the energy gathering principle, the top of the copper shell melted into a high-temperature and high-pressure metal jet, and focused into a line.
Such a high-temperature and high-pressure metal jet, which concentrates the energy of the explosive in one point and releases it, can easily penetrate the thick armor of the target.
Despite being draped in a few centimeters of steel plate armor, it was meaningless in the face of shaped armor-piercing bullets, and even the steel plate itself became a terrible weapon when melted.
Each rocket that exploded on the dragon's body pierced through the dragon's armor, through the dragon's scales, and through the dragon's body.
The high-temperature and high-pressure metal jet chiseled through the dragon's body, scorching its internal organs, and leaving many hot copper and iron beads in the dragon's body, all of which were the product of the metal jet's re-coagulation after encountering the dragon's blood.
Replaced by humans or other creatures, it was already quagging at this time, but the dragon was huge and tenacious, and the injured body wriggled and closed the wound, and also sealed the hot copper and iron beads in the body.
The internal organs were repaired by a great life force, then scorched by the red-hot metal, and then repaired, and the dragon suffered terribly as a result.
Twenty-five of the forty dragons were struck in the torso, and they fell feebly, falling to the ground and struggling and rolling.
The majestic dragon's roar turned into a terrible howl, and the dust stained the dragon's scales, making them as embarrassed as a beaten dog.
