The garrison army is not considered elite, but at least after a period of training, they have more or less guaranteed discipline.
After the construction site was bombed and projected by the flame bat cavalry, the whole camp felt restless, but after Paran escaped from the flames and began to take over the command of the troops, the panic in the whole camp stabilized Not a lot.
Soldiers also have feelings. When the chief military officer who led him persisted in his command post when half of his face was burned, and even took the lead in pouring sand into the sea of fire with both hands, Who would not be moved by this
Under the command of officers at all levels, groups of soldiers began to get busy. Some people are using engineer shovels to excavate sand and soil from the wasteland, and some people are responsible for quickly filling the excavated sand and soil into sacks.
The sacks that had just been packed were quickly picked up by someone, and thrown forward, they were thrown into the hands of the soldiers on the edge of the sea of flames who were responsible for dousing the flames.
The two soldiers worked together to sprinkle the sand from the sack on the continuously spreading flames.
Soon, the sea of flames finally stopped flowing outwards, and the range was controlled.
Palan was somewhat relieved. After the range of the flames was brought under control, at least the damage would not increase too much.
But it is far from the time to slack off, and the fire has only just been brought under control.
Palan continued to send troops and transfer generals. Standing on a high place, the skin that had just been burned by the fire was stinging unceasingly when blown by the wind and sand, which even made his head dizzy. However, he still gritted his teeth, ran around, conveyed orders, and further organized more soldiers to participate in the fire fighting.
His hard work has paid off.
Three hours later, the fire was extinguished.
A quick tally of losses, and things aren't looking good.
The construction site that was attacked by Batrider was opened up yesterday by Pallant to install and build the siege equipment pulled from Shawan Harbor. On the land of the wasteland, there is no wood that can be obtained locally, and naturally there is no way to obtain materials on the spot to make equipment, and can only rely on transportation.
Palan brought a lot of semi-finished equipment from Shawan Port. Last night, he was ordering his soldiers to work in three shifts, hoping to take the opportunity to build more. However, today, it is not completely destroyed, but the loss is not small. The work of last night was almost useless, and a large number of equipment was burned. Although part of it was salvaged, these things had to be removed and reinstalled.
Calculated in this way, almost half of the siege equipment he brought from Shawan Port has been lost.
However, this is not the place that makes Palan feel the most headache. His headache was not the loss of soldiers. Although there were more than 300 soldiers in the sea of flames and were working on the construction site at the time, most of them were either burned to death or burned, and could no longer continue to participate in the battle, but there were still some of them. People escaped.
What troubles him the most is that he seems to have no way to guard against the Batrider who doesn't know when he will fall from the sky again!
Those Batriders attacked in the early morning, and the location they chose was quite precise. If you don't fight anywhere, just stare at the siege equipment in the construction camp, there must be a source of intelligence.
Come to think of it, at night, these bat cavalry had already sneaked in to investigate.
However, no matter how worried Palan was, the work must go on.
As he dispatched sentry posts, he didn't ask for anything else, he just wanted to be able to give an early warning when he found another batrider flying over from the sky. In addition, he also ordered his soldiers to dismantle all the equipment worth saving and place them separately, so as to reduce some losses as much as possible. At the same time, he also urgently assembled some archery experts under his command, and specially allocated a team of archers to try to be able to resist the next time the enemy attacked.
Palan has already done a very good job. If someone else takes his place, he may not be as calm and calm as he is now.
But it's a pity that the enemy will not come to trouble him because of his calmness.
Just after eleven o'clock in the morning, when Palan had just rearranged the troops who had been busy all morning, the mournful whistle sounded one after another.
This is the alarm method agreed by the scouts he sent out. When this sound sounds, it means that the Batriders are coming again.
Palan, who was in the tent, being treated by several military doctors for his burns, ran out of the camp and started shouting loudly, ignoring that his wounds had not been healed in time.
"Officers at all levels! Scatter with soldiers! Absolutely no troops are allowed to gather! Absolutely no approaching flammable objects is allowed! Prepare sandbags!"
Continuous orders were issued, and he, who had already experienced an air strike, summed up a set of ways to deal with air strikes in a few hours. He doesn't know whether these methods are effective or not, but it must be better than facing the air attack in a panic.
However, although he has taken some countermeasures, the soldiers' implementation is different. Even with the restraints of the officers, the entire camp inevitably showed many signs of chaos.
And in the sky, those batriders came at a speed not much later than the sirens! But a moment later, another group of black spots were approaching the sky above the camp at a very fast speed.
It was too far away to see clearly, but judging from the number, Palan felt that the Batriders who came this time were probably the same group that came at dawn.
He clenched his fists tightly, feeling quite aggrieved in his heart. He would rather the entire enemy army go out of the city, at least they can fight in a dignified manner. When encountering such a method of constantly using air strikes to find trouble, the feeling that the power cannot be used really makes people quite angry.
Now, he can only hope that the order to disperse the troops can reduce the loss as much as possible. In addition, the temporarily equipped archer team can make the bat cavalry pay some price when they dive.
You should be ready to empty, now, Palan is waiting for the arrival of those Batriders!
And just as he was about to grit his teeth, a panicked voice suddenly sounded in his ears: "Colonel... Colonel, a group of air cavalry is also coming behind us!"
Hearing this, Palan was taken aback—where did the air cavalry come from behind? He couldn't help but raised his head from the bunker where he was hiding, and looked in the opposite direction of Iron Nail Hill, the surprise on his face quickly turned into ecstasy!
Where is the enemy's bat cavalry, it is clearly Lord Dayne's griffin! (To be continued.)
