Chapter 303: Divine War (12) Hidden Side Plot, Triggered
The battle for Cairo has been going on for three months, and this is a siege that has lasted for three months.
Throughout modern history, it is not surprising that a major war lasted for four months, after all, the Hundred Years War between England and France was fought from 1337 to 1453 one after another, but it is quite rare to fight a city for three months.
Siege and plain warfare are not the same concept, and siege warfare is a kind of torture for both the besieging and defending sides.
The British officer in charge of directing this battle was also under pressure!
According to their original budget, with only one Cairo, but 10,000 defenders, plus no restrictions, they could take the city in 48 hours!
As a result, as soon as the troops were dispatched, they encountered Waterloo.
The opponent's strength in defending the city is average, and the air defense capability is equivalent to nothing, and the army defending the city was suppressed by their Royal Air Force in Great Britain for a while, and the city walls were flattened by five meters!
Britain's greatest advantage is the Air Force.
In this era, the invincible navy could not reach Cairo at all, and the performance of the army was average, and only the air force was the most supportive.
In the absence of the Central Continent team, the Egyptian army's air defense capability is completely zero.
There is a saying: Hit the ground empty, hit the fool, and there is a truth to this.
Playing Red Alert, people who do not build air defense have basically experienced the fear of being shrouded in Kirov, and at this time, the Egyptian army was overwhelmed by the bombing of the British air force.
During the siege of the city, the Madigas were once driven to the brink of despair by the air force.
But the guerrilla tactics of the Madigas also made the British army defenseless!
The rangers outside the city relied on their strong mobility to frantically attack the foundation of the British army in the middle of the night, and stopped the British air raid by destroying the airfield, so that Cairo did not fall.
Britain, France, and other European countries sent troops to Egypt like crazy during this time, and the British king even gave a speech in person, ignoring the resentment at home, saying that Cairo must be taken no matter what.
As the war intensified, the European powers gradually reached an agreement within themselves.
That is, Cairo must be taken!
"Cairo is more than just a city, it is the capital of Egypt, and more importantly, it represents the foundation of the cult of the sun god."
"Once Cairo falls, the luck of Egypt and the Helios Cult will immediately fall into a slump, and at that time, the Christian god system will not have any scruples about the luck of Egypt, and will directly descend to the gods and start the final link of the divine war."
"When several fourth-order mid-level powerhouses come down without any restrictions, we will have no chance of winning."
The desperate resistance of the Medigas finally ushered in the dawn of victory, and the moment the sniper rifle at zero o'clock sounded, it represented the advancement of the arms of this war from mortal to transcendent.
Zero, who acts as an observer, notices this and immediately fires a gun into the sky.
"British devils! Did Lao Tzu draft!! ”
At the moment when the gun rang out, Li Xiaoyi jumped off the city wall with a brisk step, and the Mingxin armor formed a translucent defensive cover under the activation of the fierce duel qi, he fell to the ground and smashed a big hole, and he rushed towards the British army unscathed.
Even if Li Xiaoyi's strength cannot be fully exerted under the suppression of the battlefield military qi, a double B-level enhanced reincarnation who has unlocked the second-order gene lock can only exert half of his power on this kind of battlefield, it is still a dimensionality reduction blow!
Li Xiaoyi, who had long been holding back his red eyes, crossed most of the battlefield with a brisk stride, grabbed a tank that the British army had just transported to the battlefield, exerted force with one arm, and directly lifted the tank and threw it towards the British artillery array in the distance.
With two deafening roars, the shock wave caused by the fall of the tank detonated the secondary explosion of the artillery battalion, and compared to this, Li Xiaoyi's appearance shocked and hit the morale of ordinary soldiers the most.
Originally, everyone was an opponent on the same level, and the planes on our side bombed the night attack of the cavalry on your side, although they were all deadly, but at least it was something that carbon-based creatures could do.
Now the other party suddenly jumped down from the wall a monster, grabbed the tank and smashed people, who can accept this.
Just when Li Xiaoyi wanted to continue to destroy the siege weapons of the British army, a sound of horses' hooves resounded on the battlefield.
On the battlefield where artillery fire is flying, any sound should be covered by the sound of artillery fire, but the sound of horses' hooves suppressed the sound of artillery fire, and appeared in the center of the battlefield with a burst of holy light special effects.
The knights are armed with heavy swords and spears, judging silver plate armor, and the war horses under the crotch are also a little extraordinary, and the war horses riding under the crotch of the knights led by them even have a raised horn-like object on their foreheads.
"Sinner, I am—"
Bang!
Before the knight captain led by him could introduce himself, his head exploded.
Zero on the wall of the city pointed his gun at the next knight with a blank face.
As for the war, who listens to you to force here.
The power of the Eye of Death's flat A without enchantment effects is also equivalent to the Gauss sniper rifle, as an artifact of the original book, the power of the Gauss sniper rifle has always been very fascinating, and even gives people a feeling that they can't withstand a shot even at the beginning of the fourth order.
According to Chu Xuan's test, the power of the Gauss sniper rifle bullet is definitely not able to withstand the average second-order, but the third-order that is strong enough can resist hard.
However, it is not a third-order gene lock, and the third-order gene lock is indeed very low for the direct combat power increase.
However, the suppression of momentum on the battlefield is significantly higher than the suppression of technological weapons, and the Ping A of the Eye of Death is no different from a Gauss sniper rifle without carrying the energy of the bloodline, and the knight captain's defensive magic was shot in the head without having time to activate.
After capturing a large number of spy captives, plus Chu Xuan's brutal experiments on the two faith puppets captured alive, Chu Xuan successfully summed up some plans to deal with these transcendent knights.
That is, don't use supernatural powers.
Li Xiaoyi avoided all the transcendents under the guidance of Zhan Lan's psychic chains, and constantly destroyed the British army's tanks, artillery and other siege equipment under the cover of the artillery on the Cairo city wall, while Zero didn't even need the guidance of psychic chains and psychic power scanning, relying on the Grim Reaper's sniper rifle to frantically harvest the heads of the knights.
When this battle advanced to a transcendent battlefield, the balance of victory went straight to Egypt!
"The British are beginning to retreat!" Zhan Lan kept reporting on the situation on the battlefield in the chain of his heart: "No, they are not retreating, they are changing guards, there are so many knights!" Why are there so many extraordinary knights?! That squad was just a striker! ”
The mortal army withdrew, but knights and priests with extraordinary powers appeared on the edge of the battlefield.
"How many are there?!"
"Three thousand starts!"
Zero aimed the sniper scope at the priest in the Transcendent Legion, and it was common sense to cut the mage and the nurse first.
But the Grim Reaper's Eye Sniper Rifle, which incarnated as the Grim Reaper on the battlefield, was deflated at this time.
This time, the bullet was blocked.
The priests began to cast their divine skills from a distance of kilometers, and the huge defensive shield formed by layers of shield techniques shrouded the sky above the Transcendent Legion with the blessing of the Holy Light Divine Technique, blocking the harvest of death for the Transcendent Legion.
At this moment, the voice of the Lord God sounded in the ears of all the reincarnations.
