50:Put My Eyes to Heaven (2nd Watch)
At an altitude of 300 meters, the white raven streaked across the sky and flew straight towards the first destination of this operation: the Occult Moon Village.
Under the layer of four acceleration spells, even the Vanguard Knights squad riding the strongest horses were left far behind by her at this time.
As she left the sphere of influence of the Linfeng army and got closer to the stronghold of Moon Occultation, Noren asked Yuna to slow down and rise to a higher altitude instead to avoid being discovered by the steppe forces in advance.
Yuna manipulated the first machine to continue to climb upward, and after the altitude exceeded 600 meters, the figures below had shrunk into black dots.
The air currents here are also larger and more frantic than those near the ground, and this is reflected in the magical level, and it is at this height that the wind elemental begins to become unstable.
Flying spells are originally designed to fly by controlling the wind element, and an unstable wind element means that there is an increased risk of flying spells getting out of control.
"Stop at this altitude." Nolan instructed.
It's just right to put my eyes on the sky!
Yuna set the first machine to levitation mode, then pulled out the telescope hanging on her chest and looked into the distance.
The outline of the Moon Occultation Village has already appeared in its field of vision.
"Come, move forward slowly, I want to see the specific location of the enemy's deployment near the stronghold."
In the carriage, Nolan spreads out a blank scroll while focusing on the first perspective that Yuna has transmitted.
As Yuna flew into the sky above the stronghold of Occultation Village, the defensive formation of the steppe people deployed here was displayed in front of him at a glance.
"Two teams of rangers to the west, one to the north and one to the south, fortifications in the stronghold...... Is that how it's deployed? ”
Based on the footage sent by Yuna, Noren quickly drew the distribution of the forces of the defenders in the stronghold of the Moon Occultation Village on the scroll.
Then he leaned out of the carriage window and called Evelyn:
"The White Raven has figured out the enemy's defensive position, and it is up to you to decide how the Knights should attack."
Evelyn rode over, took the scroll and glanced at it, nodding, "No problem, but ...... Are you sure there are no more enemy forces near the Occultation Village? ”
This time, the Knights sent a full half of their combat strength, and of course they were sure to swallow the enemy of this one stronghold.
She was afraid that Neiying would leak the news of the battle, causing the grassland people to make an early warning and send a large army to ambush them near the village of Occult Moon, causing the troops to fall into encirclement.
Nolan affirmed, "Except for the ones I marked, there are no other reinforcements found within a radius of a hundred miles. ”
Unless the enemy will be invisible, no unit will be able to sneak away from Yuna's detection from the sky.
"Okay."
Receiving Nolan's affirmative answer, Evelyn didn't say much, patted her horse and went forward.
The new combat instructions were quickly passed on to the captains of each squad through the flag.
Of the five Knights' squads, two teams are responsible for frontal attacks, while the remaining three squads make a detour to the side, flanking from the left, right, and rear of the stronghold.
This tactic aims to encircle and annihilate the opponent with absolute combat superiority, and does not give the opponent any chance to escape and evacuate.
"What, you actually told me to go around the back?"
After receiving the order from Evelyn, Julius, the leader of the sixth squad of the Knights, was a little dissatisfied, "The combat effectiveness of our army has multiplied the enemy, and when we go around the back, the credit has been snatched away by other squads!" ”
He was a little impatient because he was a mixture of Roland and La Buse.
Heaven and earth can be seen, his loyalty to Linfeng City and the Roland Empire has not wavered in the slightest, but because of his bloodline, he has been more or less coldly received in the knights recently.
Promoted to the seventh order before the age of thirty, Julius was also a genius with a high eye, when did he receive this kind of qi?
If you question your own strength, it's good to prove, but there are people who doubt your own ingredients......
Can this endure, can this endure?
Therefore, in this battle, he couldn't wait to kill.
He wants to prove with the number of people that he and the gang of miscellaneous people who invaded his homeland are not the same people at all!
But now the commander is letting himself go around? This is not an easy job to achieve!
"Bear with me, Captain."
The adjutant patted his horse alongside him and said with a smile, "Maybe there will be enemy reinforcements coming, so let's cut them off in the rear." ”
"Hmph, they'd better hurry up!"
The well-trained Knights quickly dispersed, and from the perspective of Heavenly Yuna, they formed an encirclement network centered on the stronghold of Occultation Village, enveloping all nearby enemies.
The Knights are indeed the strongest combat force in Linfeng City, and the captains of each squad have the strength of the seventh order, and they are equipped with the top alchemy armor of the empire all over their bodies, and they take the lead when they charge, like the sharpest blades that break away the enemy's ranks.
The steppe rangers outside began to rout after just a face-to-face with the Knights, and after finding themselves surrounded, they hurriedly prepared to retreat to the stronghold.
Squads of the Order poured in from different directions, driving the enemy into the stronghold like pigs, and then the mages in the ranks began to chant incantations.
Because they obtained the defensive layout map in the stronghold from the White Raven, their spells were accurate to hit the target, and they quickly concentrated their firepower and destroyed the watchtowers, magic cannons, and defensive bunkers that threatened them in the stronghold.
No...... To be honest, under the joint attack of the five knight squads, even if there was no white raven to help scout the stronghold, a single stronghold in the Occult Moon Village would be destroyed by their saturation attack.
In the confusion, the pale horse of the steppe defender escaped through the back door of the stronghold.
He was the only seventh-order knight sitting in the stronghold, and he was one of the strongest in the Lebuse clan.
If the offender only has a squad of knights, he is confident that he will be able to slash the opponent's seventh-order squad leader in a duel.
But this time there was not just one team that raided the Moon Hidden Village, but at least four...... And even more!
With such a huge disparity in combat power, this is a fart!
He held back his strength and ran out, only to see that the back door of the stronghold had been blocked by another Knights squad.
"Yo, it's good you're not dead."
Seeing him, the eyes of Julius, the leader of the sixth squad, lit up, "I have a short credit, just take advantage of you!" ”
The leader of the colony let out a desperate roar and slapped his horse to fight with him.
The two quickly exchanged more than a dozen rounds, from horseback fighting to white-knuckle fighting, and it was difficult to tell the winner for a while.
The battle between the seventh-order powerhouses could not be intervened by ordinary people, so the rest of the team members did not intervene easily, and dispersed in an organized manner to clear the remaining escaped fish.
And it took so much time, and the remaining four seventh-order team leaders also rushed to the scene and came over in time to support.
Julius is not inferior in the heads-up, and even has a faint advantage, but the overall situation is important, and the other captains don't care so much, directly intervene in the battle, and carry out a righteous siege on the leader of the stronghold.
A seventh-order knight is surrounded by five knights of the same rank, and the ending is obvious.
After a few moves, he was pierced by several long swords, and he fell to the ground without a sound.
"Fuck, my credit!"
Julius cursed angrily and spat at the corpse to show his hatred for his enemies and his displeasure.
"Alright, we know you're loyal." The captain laughed.
Crushing the opponent and winning a crushing victory, not even a single person on your side was killed, and the atmosphere on the battlefield became relaxed.
High in the sky, observing that the victory below was decided, Yuna also lowered the magic guide gun in her hand and breathed a sigh of relief.
Helping the defenders on the Western Front fight so many vicious battles that she almost thought that the Linfeng army was full of useless grass platform teams.
Now, after joining forces with the Knights, she has also experienced the feeling of being a teammate flying and lying down to win for the first time in a long time.
She just got a new piece of equipment, and although she is a little sorry that she can't show her skills for the time being, this feeling of lying down to win is just as good.
"Yuna, do you see what's coming?" Nolan thought thoughtfully.
"Well, enemy reinforcements didn't come." Yuna said, looking at the skyline in the distance.
"yes, that's weird. Obviously, the Occult Moon Village is a very important stronghold, and the grassland people should also understand its strategic value, and they will not let us occupy it easily. ”
Nolan touched his chin, "It seems that they do have other plans. ”
