For example, the two magic artillery pieces that brought up the problem were both produced by the Empire's second magic artillery factory, and were no different from the source of the magic artillery equipped by the Guards Corps.
However, the quality of the military magic machinery produced by the large military factories under the Ministry of Military Affairs has always been unstable, and the quality is far inferior to the magic artillery produced by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. Various strange problems often occur, and the imperial soldiers have long been accustomed to it.
Even compared with the military magic machinery produced by the Lampali Kingdom, it is obviously inferior.
In a previous battle with the Lampali Kingdom army, General Dardanelle's army had annihilated a Lampali Kingdom scout team and seized a batch of individual military magic machines from them.
Just using the most common magic repeating gun for comparison, the magic repeating gun equipped by General Dardanelle's army has a maximum burst count of eighteen rounds, while the Lampari Kingdom's maximum burst count is twenty-four. Although Both require only one magazine, but the resulting loading and firing speeds are very different, and the power is even worse.
At that time, in order to annihilate the Lampali Kingdom's scout team, which only consisted of twelve soldiers, General Dardanelle's men paid a total of eight lives.
You know, at that time they had an absolute numerical advantage five times that of their opponent.
In addition, just by looking with your eyes and touching it with your hands, you can clearly find that the magic repeaters of the Lampali Kingdom are obviously more sophisticated than those of the Malo Empire in terms of craftsmanship and assembly.
What surprised General Dardanelle even more was that the main body of the Lampali Kingdom's magic repeater was obviously made of special steel. The barrel could still maintain an acceptable high temperature after one minute of continuous firing. status, it is still possible to launch.
If it were the magic repeating gun of the Malo Empire, under such high-frequency continuous firing, the inside of the barrel would be slightly deformed, which would greatly affect the hit rate, or even cause direct damage.
Speaking of hit rate, General Dardanelle once conducted experiments himself, using the magic repeating gun from the Lampali Kingdom and the magic repeating gun equipped by his own army. Shoot continuously at targets at the same distance.
The final result showed that the hit rate of the magic repeating gun of the Lampali Kingdom was more than 20% more stable than that of the magic repeating gun of the Malo Empire.
For such a single military magic machine, the gap is extremely huge.
After personally verifying this, General Dardanelle almost felt despair for a moment.
When did the magic industrial craftsmanship of the Lampali Kingdom become so powerful? How could he surpass the Maro Empire so obviously
And being on the front lines. As the commander of a legion in person, General Dardanelle undoubtedly feels this situation much more deeply than others.
In the confrontation with the Lampali Kingdom's army, it was of no use even if the Maro Empire's numbers were exceeded.
Due to the obvious gap in the military magic machinery between the two sides, General Dardanelle will always find it very difficult once entering a head-on firefight.
So I looked at the Lampali Kingdom troops standing still at the foot of the mountain. His heart would only become more uneasy.
With their strength, even if they directly attack the position they are stationed in, they are very likely to succeed in one fell swoop. However, now they are just staying below, obviously preparing for a more prudent approach.
Thinking of this, General Dardanelle frowned, stuffed the combat readiness chart into the arms of his guards, and strode into the simple barracks behind him.
"General, what's the matter?" Several legion staff officers in the barracks were all shocked when they saw General Dardanelle suddenly hurried in.
"Are there any new instructions from above?" General Dardanelle asked in a deep voice.
Several staff officers looked at each other. They all shook their heads.
General Dardanelle frowned even more, grabbed the magic communication device on the table in the middle of the barracks, and quickly connected the communication with the rear military headquarters.
After chatting for a few words, General Dardanelle angrily slapped him down and cut off the communication.
Several staff officers nearby were startled and looked at him in astonishment.
General Dardanelle paced back and forth in the barracks with a gloomy face.
He just made a request to the military headquarters, hoping to send him another batch of backyard supplies to help him defend his position, but the military headquarters refused due to the inconvenience of transportation, the lack of movement in the Lampali Kingdom, etc. .
"Damn it. These guys were very nice when they asked me to be at the front. Now if you want something, just push back and forth!" General Dardanelle cursed viciously, thought for a moment, and pressed the magic communication device again. I plan to negotiate directly with the Logistics Administration.
However, after he slapped it down, he found that the magic communication device had no response.
General Dardanelle lowered his head in astonishment and saw that there was no problem with the indicator light on the magic communication device, and the sound of a magic signal was also emitted, but he said that nothing could be connected.
"What? This thing is broken too?" General Dardanelle frowned and patted the magic communication device.
Several staff officers came over to take a look, but they didn't know what was going on. I had no choice but to send someone to call the person in charge of ordnance maintenance.
General Dardanelle waited for a while, but seeing that he still couldn't get it right, he simply took out his personal magic phone box, intending to directly contact his acquaintances in the Military Logistics Agency.
However, after he opened the communication request, he found that there was no response at all.
"What happened all of a sudden?" General Dardanelle was a little strange.
Just when he looked up and saw several technicians from the legion rushing over, preparing to arrest them for questioning, a group of people rushed out from all directions of the camp with anxious faces.
After asking, it turned out that these guys were all conducting magic communication or preparing to carry out magic communication, but found that they could not get through.
General Dardanelle's face darkened.
This unusual situation gave him a bad feeling.
Just at this moment, several whistling sounds suddenly came from a distance.
The expressions of General Dardanelle and the surrounding legionnaires all changed, and they dispersed, each finding a bunker to hide.
"Boom boom boom boom—"
Continuous explosions sounded, and the camp was immediately in chaos.
Seeing that a personal guard next to him was also with him, General Dardanelle kicked him on the butt and roared: "What are you doing hiding here? Why don't you hurry up and give the order to open the shield?"
The guard quickly agreed, but before he could walk out, a light cyan light had already risen from the position and turned into a semicircular cover. Covered on top of the position.
The magic shells that roared later hit these light cyan covers and could only erupt with ripples on them, but they could not land directly in the position like before.
General Dardanelle breathed a sigh of relief and came out of his hiding place.
When receiving the task of guarding the pass. The first thing General Dardanelle requested from the military department was a complete set of the latest rock-level magic protection system.
Although it is still far from the top level of the Guardian Goddess, a complete set of rock-level magic protection systems independently developed by the Maro Empire is enough to withstand the attacks of most known military magic machines.
Although the firepower of the Lampali Kingdom army on the opposite side is stronger than that of the Malo Empire, as long as the system's magic crystal reserve is sufficient. Then the position is safe.
General Dardaniel could prepare a large number of high-concentration standard magic crystals that are enough to keep the protection system fully open for more than ten hours, which is enough to withstand the continuous intensive attacks from the Kingdom of Lampali for ten hours.
But even if the Lampali Kingdom's armaments are even better than those of the Malo Empire, it is impossible to maintain a high-density uninterrupted attack for ten hours.
Therefore, General Dardanelle believes that at least this position will be absolutely fine in a short period of time.
As for the longer time... it depends on whether the military headquarters can supply it in time.
"Okay, why are you dazed? Hurry and get ready for me to take your positions and prepare for a counterattack!" General Dardanelle roared loudly and quickly issued various orders.
It is obviously not possible to passively take a beating. If there is no counterattack and containment, and the Lampali Kingdom is allowed to attack, even if there is a protection system. It is also impossible to guarantee safety.
But just as General Dardanelle was instructing several deputies and staff to assign attack missions, a subordinate responsible for detecting the magic space raised his head with horror on his face.
"General... detected... detected... there..."
"What's there? Say it quickly!" General Dardanelle glared at him fiercely.
"There is... a super high energy reaction, coming... from the southwest."
"Ultra-high energy reaction?" General Dardanelle was shocked. "How high?"
"It's possible... it's possible to exceed the shield limit..."
"Exceeding the shield limit? How is this possible!"
"Just, what a joke."
"It's not that exaggerated. There must be something wrong with your detection system..."
Several staff officers around him immediately reprimanded him.
General Dardanelle frowned and waved his hand: "Detect it carefully again, and then..."
Just as he was mid-sentence, a ray of fire suddenly fell.
"boom-"
The fire exploded and swallowed up the entire legion headquarters in an instant.
…
About three kilometers away from the position of the Malo Empire Legion on the mountain, Count Lianke, commander of the Third Legion of the Kingdom of Lampali, put down the telescope in his hand. He nodded with satisfaction.
When he first saw this pass position carefully arranged by the Maro Empire, he decided not to attack by force.
Now it seems that the Maro Empire is indeed well prepared and has even deployed a magic protection system on such a large position.
If you use normal attack mode. I'm afraid that even if all the magic shells stored in the legion's reserve are used up, they may not be able to capture it, and their casualties will probably be very heavy.
But now, he only used three Musi No. 1 medium and long-range magic missiles independently developed by the Lampali Kingdom to destroy the magic protection system in one fell swoop, exposing the entire position to artillery fire.
Just try harder. Taking down this position is a piece of cake.
Thinking of this, Count Lianke perked up, took a step forward, and shouted an order to the entire legion on the magic phone box in his hand.
"Fire with all your strength! Get it before sunset!"
"Boom boom boom boom..."
As if in response to Earl Lenke's order, a series of roaring sounds of artillery fire sounded continuously, shaking the entire mountain range. (~^~)
