Night fell.
The sky is particularly gloomy tonight. Clouds loomed over the horizon in the distance. Block out both the starry sky and the moonlight. Only the moon can occasionally reveal some faint light through the gaps in the clouds.
above the city wall. The defenders lit torches. Roenthal, who replaced the injured General Miro, observed the orc camp in the distance with a telescope for a while, and muttered in a low voice, "Goddess bless you."
Every night. The orc's camp in the distance is particularly scary, and the orc's camp stretches for dozens of miles. The lights in the orc's camp are brilliant.
Numerous torches were piled densely in the orc camp. look. The tens of miles of flames are particularly shocking.
And this time. Above the sky, there was a soft rushing sound.
Hidden in the clouds all over the sky. One after another, hot air balloon airships revealed their silhouettes. Thank God, the night and the clouds provided them with adequate cover.
One after another, hot air balloon airships quietly flew to the top of the orc camp...
The raid plan officially begins!
For this operation, the air force commanded by General Andre. More than 1,500 of the largest geothermal balloon airships were dispatched at one time. There are also two hundred small ground guard airships.
Although it was night, from the sky, the camp of the orcs below was particularly obvious—these orcs really shouldn't be lighting so many torches at night! The imperial soldiers on the airship muttered in their hearts.
Those bright flames, at this time, made the imperial soldiers on the airship no longer have to worry about aiming at the target in the dark.
One after another geothermal balloons quietly flew over the orc camp, and a large number of hot air balloons formed formations in the air. The first batch of air force of the empire is forming a dense formation one after another according to the strict training they usually do, carefully maintaining order and spacing.
Under the faint moonlight. The secret weapons produced in the imperial factory that surpassed the entire era were hung under the airship. The weapons named "bombs" by the Duke of Tulip were like grapes hanging on the vine one by one.
The night gave the Imperial Air Force cover, but it also caused some troubles to the Imperial Air Force-in this era without communication tools, the Air Force can still use the telescopes and observers mounted on the airship during training on weekdays. Come and obey the command according to the flag on the flagship in the airship. But at night... high above the sky, the flag is unrecognizable.
But this time, it was more based on feeling.
Among the army of orcs, in the tents, orc warriors were sleeping. Occasionally, the orc soldiers on patrol did not notice the abnormality in the sky.
Even the orc warriors on the watchtower were a little slack. Just occasionally look at the direction of the human city wall in the distance.
The orc's giant rock didn't sleep, it was in its own tent, talking with several of its own relatives. Several leaders of the rhino tribe were discussing something, and Rocky was in a bad mood. Although the white rhino general Bastin vowed to use victory to wash away the shame, but the previous battle. Let the rocks have figured it out. Humans don't seem to be as weak as imagined.
It seems... that Elf King was right.
"A fight tomorrow. I think..."
The rock was about to say something. But this time there was a loud noise. Interrupted its words! !
boom! !
In the night, there was the sound of an explosion. Break the silence immediately! The sound of the explosion seemed to be very close to the tent on the rock. Immediately there was a fire outside!
The orc leaders in the tent were stunned for a moment, and then rushed out immediately, yelling!
At this time, the human air strike has been fully launched!
After the first bomb was dropped, it landed on top of a tent. After the gunpowder exploded. The fire quickly ignited that tent completely! When the sleeping orc warrior woke up, he rushed out of the tent that had turned into a ball of flames in confusion!
In the dark. The bomb exploded. Not only does it bring flames, but this kind of bomb that has been improved by the Northwest is also filled with a considerable number of subway pieces and iron nails. Once it explodes, it immediately becomes the kind of bomb that Du Wei knew in his previous life. "Flower Bomb"
The iron sheets and nails were stirred up in the explosion. It caused a lot of damage to the orcs.
And above the sky. A string of bombs. It fell from the sky with a roar, and poured into the orc barracks!
Almost just a few breaths in between. In the camp of the orc army. It's already on fire! There were endless explosions around. Most orcs have not yet recovered from the shock. More and more orcs rushed out of the tents and barracks. Blindly running around the camp shouting.
Many orcs didn't even know where the explosion came from, but they were surrounded by flames, and the secret explosion made the orcs' screams full of a miserable flavor.
"What's going on! What happened. Love!!"
Rock roared angrily.
No one can answer.
Because at the moment most orcs are in their hearts. Also asking the same question!
Looking down from above. More than half of the first round of bombing. Countless sparks have bloomed in this orc camp.
Countless orcs were exclaiming and screaming. Running blindly, but waiting for them, there are more bombs falling from the sky!
"Fly forward! Continue to fly forward! Strengthen the depth! Because of the dark night, the stupid school could not use the flag to command, so the soldiers could only desperately shout at their companions.
Although this is very inefficient. It also brought some troubles to the smooth progress of the human plan, but the orcs below are still in chaos!
One by one tents and barracks were engulfed in the flames, and the orcs crowded and ran back and forth in the camp. But I don't know where I am running, those bombs. Some land fell on the barracks, and some land fell on the pile of orcs. The flames and the shrapnel from the exploding bullets were constantly killing the orcs.
Finally, after the first round of human bombing was over, the orc barracks in the bombing area were bombed. It's already on fire! Even the orcs in the chaos ran back and forth and trampled. It also caused some orcs to die at the feet of their companions.
at this time. Finally, a sharp-eyed orc spotted the enemy!
"Heaven!! They are in the sky!
More and more orcs raised their heads and saw the chaotic formation of human airships in the sky, but at this time, the orcs were more shocked: Could it be that those humans, like elves, have the ability to fly? up? !
The human bombing is carried out in formation, every 300 airships round, when the first round of bombing airships completed their mission and returned, the second round of airships had already flown over the orcs!
"Observe carefully! Throw bombs at the densest place!!"
The observer on the airship roared with all his might - U.
When the second round of bombs was dropped, the orcs finally started to counterattack sporadically.
But such a counterattack is obviously a bit weak.
Because there is a lack of archers among the orcs, especially the orcs who are responsible for the main attack this time are the hoof tribe. Those orcs, who are dominated by cattle and horses, are strong and strong, and they have brute force. But units like archers pay more attention to skill than brute force. Because of birth defects. Archers have always been very, very rare among orcs.
Moreover, sporadic bow and arrow fighters began to design towards the sky. But the chaos in the night. This makes such shooting lack of accuracy, and... those human airships are too high!
There are only some elite archers. In order to shoot the arrow to such a high position, most archers shoot blindly. It's just wasting their precious arrows and strength.
In the second round of bombing. More bombs poured down from the sky, and more and more orcs became panicked and panicked.
Although the rock has already ordered his personal guards to lead people to act as a supervising team to maintain order. Even beheading nearly 200 orcs running in panic in one breath, they could barely slow down the spread of panic.
"These humans! What the hell kind of weapons are they using!!" the orcs were angry. The Rock is also angry.
Could it be a group of magicians attacking?
The two rounds of bombing lasted nearly an hour.
In an hour. A large area of the orc camp was engulfed in flames, and a large number of orcs lost their armor and weapons. Running around, running blindly! The orc camp is too big. Although the human bombing has been strengthened as deep as possible, it still only covers a small half of the area.
It's just that the frightened orcs in the bombed area spread out more and more! The orcs ran in a crowd and rushed to those safe areas, trying to avoid the blow from the air, but instead spread the panic!
Areas that are still safe around. It was soon overrun by panicked orcs! Those intact tents and barracks were trampled by the group of orcs, and countless orcs ran out of the barracks when they heard the movement. Blindly entered the chaotic team, more and more people were trampled to death and injured!
At this time, as a giant rock. Stand up!
The holy rank powerhouse among the orcs. He grabbed a long knife. Jump up suddenly! Then it threw the knife in its hand fiercely at an airship in the sky!
Under the majestic power of the holy man, the big knife immediately burst into a ball of golden light, like a shooting star soaring into the sky!
Although at an altitude of hundreds of meters. The airship couldn't dodge at all, it was concentrated with a bang, and turned into pieces!
"Calm down! …
Confused orcs. A roar like thunder was heard! The sound was like thunder. It was like a heavy hammer hitting the hearts of the orcs!
"Calm down! ≌worm glass...
The rock roared furiously with its greatest strength, and its powerful holy-level power made its voice spread all over the place quickly.
"Kill those who panic!! Kill those who run blindly!! Kill those who disturb the morale of the army!
The majestic roar of the rock rang out the night. After it roared several times, it finally gathered groups of chaotic troops around it. It quickly led a group of people and kept running around in the camp. The powerful holy power gave It has sufficient speed, and it slashes and kills all the way without mercy. Kill the orcs who dare to take the lead in running on the spot!
With blood and cruelty. After suppressing the other orcs. It began to issue orders one after another!
After the third round of the human race, the camp with an area of more than seven or eight miles was turned into ruins, and the orcs had crowded and rushed around.
The rock giant led a large number of rhino guards, running back and forth to maintain order. Soon, like a snowball, more and more chaotic soldiers were gathered.
"Crossbow bolts! Push the crossbow bolts out!
The arrival of the fourth round of human airstrikes was a bit shorter than scheduled. Because the formation of the human air force itself had some confusion in the night sky. Poor visibility. Some formations almost collided by themselves.
The airship in the fourth round of air strikes flew above the orcs. Rock has brought a group of settled chaos troops and started an organized counterattack.
Among the orc army, some crossbow arrows made by dwarves were moved out.
Although not many. There are less than a hundred crossbow bolts, but this kind of long-range weapon can just restrain the enemies in the sky.
Just flew to the fourth round of airship formation above the orc camp. He was immediately attacked head-on! Dozens of crossbow arrows shot into the air, although the orcs' talent for shooting was flawed. But the coverage shooting of dozens of crossbow arrows. Still, several airships flying in the front were hit, and three of the airships were hit by hot air balloons, and soon turned into a ball of flames and fell from the sky!
Human beings had to increase the flight altitude, but the altitude was increased. But it also reduces the accuracy of human bombing.
Teams of orcs who had calmed down under the orders of the officers and leaders began to calm down from the panic. They no longer ran blindly, but began to retreat to the surroundings in a controlled manner. Some orcs even learned to dismantle the wooden planks and hold them above their heads. More orcs grabbed their shields.
Rock snatched a bow from an orc archer beside him. But it is under agitation. With too much force, the bow was torn apart. Then an angry orc giant. He simply rushed to the barracks. Take out a bundle of spears!
At this time, the holy rank powerhouse showed its power!
One handle after another spear, thrown under its powerful force. Like a golden meteor flying into the sky. Accurately shot down human airships one after another!
Seeing the enemies in the air being shot down, the panicked orcs broke out into cheers one after another. panicked mood. Finally started to stabilize.
Among the orcs, some high-level warriors also started to grab their spears and throw them into the sky! But hundreds of meters high. Even high-ranking fighters can hardly throw their spears to such a high distance!
Afterwards, seeing that their strength was not enough, those high-ranking fighters simply went berserk consciously! !
One by one, the high-level orc warriors used the orc's secret instinct to start the orc madness. In an instant, his combat power has been increased by about three times!
More and more spears flew into the sky. The human air force can obviously feel the huge increase in pressure, and those spears have a higher range and more power!
In the fourth round of ground bombing, humans lost more than forty hot air balloons. But the effect of the bombing was far lower.
After General Andre in the rear got the news from the front. Immediately and decisively ordered to cancel the last round of bombing.
Tonight's results are brilliant enough. Now that the orcs have stabilized order, there's no need to waste the lives of precious air pilots.
Chaos in the orc camp. It was not until dawn that everything finally subsided.
The orc camps over ten miles away were affected, and the area with the most serious losses. Almost all barracks were destroyed.
Most of the fire in the camp had been extinguished. Occasionally there was black smoke from the ashes. On the ground, the scorched earth and the blood of the orcs solidified into large patches of black and red.
Dead orcs to corpses. They were transported together, the ruins of the barracks in the camp. And discarded armor, weapons...
Many injured orcs are receiving treatment, one by one. His face was full of fireworks, some were burned, and some were wounded by shrapnel. Some land was stepped on by his companions in the chaos.
When the loss figures were reported, Rock was very angry.
This human air strike caused the rock to lose the lives of nearly 2,000 orc soldiers. And the number of injured reached nearly 6,000! Orcs who were seriously injured and lost their combat effectiveness were closer to a thousand!
This data is actually not that big. Because although the air force's combat methods are very advanced, the power of bombs in this world is too small! The explosive power of those gunpowder. They are far from enough to form a fatal kill, as for the shrapnel of those flowering bombs. It can only cause damage to orcs. But not fatal.
Most of the dead orcs. But it was caused by trampling on each other in the chaos.
The battle went smoothly, but without the knowledge of both sides. Humanity has lost an extremely precious opportunity to expand the results of the war! !
"Idiot!
A few days later, in Du Wei, the imperial capital, he received a military report from the front. The result of the first round of orc siege was not surprising in the military report. The walls are confident.
Judging from the battle report, the first battle was fought beautifully, first deliberately showing weakness and luring the enemy to attack. The army of orcs was deliberately released onto the city wall.
Then ignited the mechanism of the trench position, engulfed the heavy soldiers under the opponent's city with a sea of fire, and turned the orcs on the city wall into a lone army. Then eat the opponent in one bite, this battle was pretty good. Also reaped the greatest results.
Based on subsequent calculations and estimates. The orcs probably lost more than ten thousand. It can be said to be a big victory.
Can make Du Wei angrily. It is the second article in this battle report. The part about the air raid at night!
"Stupid! Extremely stupid!!"
After Du Wei finished reading. He slapped the table hard. Annoyed. Immediately tear the battle report in your hand to pieces!
"Night air strikes! Rostock really figured it out! [Retired and hired Jin Huan. Could it be that Andrea is also a fool! Just listen to Rostock's reckless behavior! Night air strikes! Damn! Think this primitive air force is the 21st century U.S. military! No ground guidance! No advanced observation instruments! No precise coordinate survey!! Air strikes at night? In the dark night. Just rely on soldiers at high altitude to bomb with their naked eyes and senses??!! It’s a waste of our ammunition! : Swinging weapons and oil to cut off the low environment at night. There is no means of command in the air, and even the minimum flag can't be seen! How to command bombing? It's just random bombing!
Du Wei's expression was a little distorted, and he slapped the table fiercely: "Funny! It's so fucking funny!! How many airships crashed because of the low visibility in the sky at night?? Damn it. You shouldn’t be going to air strikes at night!! This orc team is obviously, the elves didn’t participate in the battle!! There is no way to attack us from the air! Then why don’t you go to air strikes in broad daylight!> Do you hate the stars??? What is in Rostock’s head! ∥ Why not attack during the day, why wait until night? Are you asking for trouble for yourself???”
The more Du Wei talked, the more annoyed he became. In the end, he even roared: "Also! What are you talking about in the end? According to estimates, the air strike was a great success?? Thousands of enemies were injured?? Fucking thousands of enemies!! Since it can kill thousands of enemies, The orc camp must be in chaos!! At this time, why don’t you leave the city and use ground troops to attack!! Since air strikes can throw the opponent’s camp into chaos. Such a good opportunity. If you can send troops to attack on the ground, it will be easy It can make the other party blow up the camp!! Once the hundreds of thousands of orc troops blow up the camp, just use the cavalry to drive them away. The results of this battle can be expanded by at least dozens of times! ∪ If you are lucky, maybe this You drove the orcs back into the frozen forest in one fell swoop!! Andre is an idiot!! Rostock doesn’t understand. You, Andre, have been with me in the northwest for two years, and how many times have I repeated the tactics. You are all* **Did you forget it?] Go to the top and sweep away! ≌Climbing and collapsing. ∥I have never heard that ground troops are not needed, just relying on air bombing Defeating the enemy!! There is no such awesome air force in the 21st century! This primitive hot air balloon. How dare you use it like this?? There is no ground follow-up troops. Only air strikes
U.S. forces attack Iraq. Air Force bombing plus missiles. For such a powerful air strike, the ground troops of the next few divisions must follow up to defeat the enemy! ! Do you think that the original air force formed by this hot air balloon is stronger than the U.S. military? ? !
This isn't a real fucking bombing! It can only be regarded as harassment! This can only be regarded as harassment at best!
Du Wei was alone in the room, slapped the table, stomped his feet and beat the wall, and got angry fiercely.
He roared angrily. Even the guards standing guard outside the dean's office heard it, and everyone looked at each other in blank dismay. I don't know why the Duke is so angry... Could it be that the front line lost? But I heard the news came. It seems that he has won two battles in a row.
Can Du Wei not be angry? Can he not be angry
Chance! The precious opportunity just slipped out of his hands! !
In the midst of war. Missed opportunity. This is to be punished! !
According to the current situation from the front, it is obvious that the criminals north of the Kaspersky line of defense are pure orc troops. No elves! No air power! !
Don't take advantage of this moment. Unleash the power of the Air Force. Bully each other hard. Don't wait until the other party sends the elves up before fighting? Damn it! Damn it! !
From the data, and from this battle report. It also details the aftermath of the orcs being attacked by air. What a mess in the camp! !
***. If 30,000 were sent out at that time... no! Even ten thousand cavalry! Take advantage of the opponent's confusion and rush over! The army of orcs can completely blow up the camp! ≡The age of throwing xun uan in Su'an. Lack of effective instant messaging tools, hundreds of thousands of primitive cold weapons army. Once the camp is bombed, unless the commander is a god. There is absolutely no control - the situation is over! ∪Slow worm if you are lucky. It can disintegrate the opponent's army and drive them back to the frozen forest! ∠Zhong Song...
"It's too late now." Du Wei got angry enough, sat down heavily on the chair, sighed a long time, and said to himself: "It's late! It's late!! The orcs have tasted the power of our air force!" , but they are prepared now. The next time there is an air strike, there is no way to make them panic like this. Moreover, once the elves' air troops come up, it will be difficult to determine how useful this pure "bombing force" can be. It's hard to say... Sigh... Andre, Andre, have you thrown all the tactics I taught you behind your head!!"
Wasted opportunity. is to be punished
On the front line, Andre was also very annoyed. He threw a document on the ground angrily, and shouted at the officer in front of him who came to deliver the order: "Why didn't the army in the city move out!! Is this the explanation?"
The officer faced Andre's anger. Also a little helpless. His level is too low. Don't dare to argue with the general. He just said slowly: "General Andre, Lord Rostock means that your army is a new army after all. We can't take too many risks... Of course. After this air strike, we have confirmed your army The power of the army. Then after this test, we will fight in the future. We can implement the new tactics you proposed. This is just a test, and you know it. If you are not sure, send the army to the front at night It is very risky to raid the enemy's fortified camp."
"I'm sure... You have to wait until you're sure before you do anything..." Andre's eyes were bloodshot, and he gritted his teeth.
finally. He heaved a long sigh.
he understands. No matter how confident you are. No matter how confident Lord Tulip is. But for General Rostock, the commander of the Storm Legion, he didn't understand the Air Force. I don't understand the power of the Air Force.
Therefore, he must see real evidence. Only by proving the capabilities of the Air Force can he be convinced.
There is no way to do this... Just like Lord Tulip said: This is an army that has surpassed this era. But most of the generals in this era have no concept of such an army!
Now. It seems that after Rostock saw the results of this air raid. I finally believed in my air force... but I wasted an excellent opportunity! For the first time, General Andre felt dissatisfaction and suspicion towards his old boss, General Rostock!
If only... if only the frontline coach was Lord Tulip...
"Is this an official document sent by Du Wei?"
In the palace, in the regent's study, the Vice Minister of Military Affairs Camisiro has a strange expression on his face. Standing in front of Prince Chen, he seemed speechless.
Prince Chen's face was a little pale, he didn't sleep well last night. The two victorious battle reports on the front line made him a little excited.
He didn't read Du Wei's official document right away, and said with a smile: "What's the matter? Did our Lord Duke write a letter to ask for credit from General Andre? His air force did a good job this time."
"Uh... no." Camisiro smiled wryly.
"No?" Prince Chen shook his head: "I know. Andre has now become Du Wei's confidant. With such a big victory, wouldn't Du Wei say a few good words for his subordinates?"
Camisiro didn't dare to worry anymore. Just grit your teeth. Said straight: "Your Highness, this official document. It is the Duke of Tulip, in his capacity as a general of the Imperial Army. It was delivered to the command through official channels... impeachment!"
"Impeachment?" Prince Chen smiled: "What did he say?"
"In his official document, he severely accused General Rostock, the front-line commander, and General Andre, the air force commander, for missing the plane... He also said that if you miss the opportunity, you will be punished."
Prince Chen: "..."
