Chapter 2 Beast Tide II
As the saying goes, recruits are afraid of artillery, and veterans are afraid of machine guns. The reason why recruits are afraid of artillery is because the sound of the shells is very loud when they explode, and they will have tinnitus and even transient deafness when they are closer, and the sound is huge, and it will explode a large area, which looks very scary. Therefore, when the recruits who went to the battlefield for the first time were shelled by the enemy, many of them were frightened, and the artillery stopped for a long time and still lay on the ground and did not dare to move. Therefore, in addition to killing and injuring, the role of the cannon also has a psychological deterrent effect. For people, recruits will eventually become veterans, and they will not be intimidated by artillery. However, for the beast, it is always a deterrent.
However, in the midst of the artillery fire, the demonic beasts in the beast tide were not moved at all, and there was no sign of commotion at all, as a creature, this is very abnormal.
"It's a monster, even if it's a beast. Please also have a little IQ, how can you be like the grasshoppers of the Zerg, you only know how to die. Austin said with a headache, firstly, the artillery can no longer be used and needs to be cooled down, otherwise it is likely to explode, and secondly, the role of the artillery is much smaller than expected.
Of course, the good news is not without it, at least, the number is much smaller than expected. At the very least, a shot can make a blank out. After thousands of shells were released, the originally dense demonic beasts in front of them had already thinned out.
"Beast tide, can you see the end?" Austin asked, looking at Angie.
Anji shook his head and said, "Now the demonic beasts are still running out of the magic forest without stopping. ”
"Well, I'm in trouble. Austin whispered.
This minefield was originally intended to hold on for at least an hour before it was used, but it didn't even hold on for half an hour, and the monster had already come to the minefield.
If the initial shelling had the existence of deterrence in addition to killing, then the minefield here is purely for the purpose of killing.
The weapons put into this minefield are mainly mines, but a large number of enchanted iron needles are put into it, according to Karen's calculations, this can pierce the skin of the monster, and this anesthetic is currently the most powerful medicine, if you can poison the monster, at that time, the monster goes crazy, and if you attack unlimitedly, they will kill each other. And for every such mine, there are at least twenty-five such needles, which really triggers the mine, and it is really a torrential rain, overwhelming.
"Hurry up and lower the temperature of the artillery. Austin gave the order, and the gunners immediately poured ice water on the artillery, although this caused great damage to the artillery, but at the moment, there was not so much to care about.
Bang, the monsters rushed to the minefield, the first mine was triggered, and after a loud bang, all the monsters around were hit, and some went down directly. Some of them were stimulated by the medicine and went berserk and began to attack other demonic beasts around them. This made the other demonic beasts tremble, and finally felt the rationality of the demonic beasts in the beast tide.
Subsequently, the continuous explosions, the demonic beasts really fell one by one, which was really extremely morale-boosting.
With such lethality, even if it is an endless beast tide, it is difficult to bear such a loss in the face of such lethality, and the speed of the beast tide has slowed down.
"Your Highness, you can already see the end of the beast tide, and there are no more demonic beasts coming out of the magic forest. Anji suddenly said excitedly.
And this sentence was passed on by Edvina to everyone, and everyone heard it. The momentum, which was already a little sluggish, suddenly lifted up.
Austin looked at Edwina appreciatively, doing the right thing, very good. When I meet smart people, it is always reassuring, and at the same time, I am a little envious of the foundation of the church.
However, the beast tide will not slow down as the morale of the warriors is raised, and the huge number of beast tides will finally approach the second line of defense.
The second line of defense is an ordinary moat, although it is simple, but the turbulent river still smoothly stops the opponent's pace.
Austin regretted that if he had enough men on his side, he could have laid a melee line of defense in the moat.
However, soon, Austin began to rejoice, because this group of monsters just hesitated a little in front of the moat and jumped directly into the moat, although many of them were washed away, but more were blocked by other monsters, and soon, this group of monsters used their bodies to block the moat directly.
"Can you still do this?" Austin couldn't help but say in surprise, although he didn't expect this turbulent moat to resist the tide of beasts, but it was still disappointing that such a simple past was.
Finally, by the time the beast tide had crossed the moat, the cannon had cooled down.
It was still in the plan, and there were no big accidents, Austin looked at Camilla at this time, Camilla was a little puzzled, and she didn't know what Austin was doing at this time, so she asked suspiciously.
"Your Highness, what are your orders?"
"Camilla, you now give Hawthorn an order, wait for this batch of artillery, then lead people to attack the magic forest, after crossing the moat, reply, we will light the fire curtain and block some of the magic beasts. Austin said.
Hearing Austin's order to Hawthorn, Camilla was stunned, and actually wanted to send someone to attack the Magic Forest? After being stunned for a while, she immediately wrote the content into the notebook, still feeling a little unreal, and couldn't help asking: "Your Highness, do you mean to let Hawthorn lead people to kill this beast tide crowd? The town shouldn't have too many troops to supply them, right?"
Austin listened, smiled, and said, "It depends on the situation, if there is really no way, this plan will be canceled." Just passive defense, you will never be able to gain the initiative, even if you defend, you must have offensive meaning, so as to gain the initiative. ”
Camilla was a little puzzled, she should have asked about feasibility, but His Highness answered military thoughts. Kill it now, if it is the army of the three major forces, of course there is no problem, no matter what the hole cards of the three major forces are, but the direct confrontation of the army, this is inevitable, because the strength of the army, may not be much less than the monster in the beast tide. However, although the army of the town itself does not know how many, it will definitely not exceed 10,000. That's why Camilla thinks it's irrational to go out of town. Especially by such a thing as artillery, this thing, if you don't see it with your own eyes, just listen to the verbal introduction, you can't feel the shock at all.
"As for the method, when the beast tide is in the middle of the tide, blast a way and let them kill it. Austin saw Camilla's doubts, and after explaining a word, he was ready to continue preparing to command the artillery.
"Reload! Shotgun loaded! Triple fire continued until the cannon couldn't take it anymore!" Austin ordered. The command of the hot weapon is like this. That's how the use of artillery is, the real fighting, sure enough, started when this batch of artillery overheated.
