The four airships of the Red Scorpion Legion clearly came into view in a blink of an eye, and two of them were high-speed troop carriers, which were large enough to hold two Red Scorpion brigades. main division.
Seeing this battle by himself, Zhang Zi frowned again. The scale of the red scorpion's dispatch is not small, which shows that the task difficulty level is high. Now he was surrounded by a group of untouchable aristocratic ladies. If Red Scorpion had a combat mission in the nearby area, it was hard to say that it would not affect Heiliu City.
The battleship of the Red Scorpion sailed directly over the airship take-off and landing field in Heiliu City, and without landing, it opened the hatch directly at 100 meters in the air, and then batches of Red Scorpion fighters jumped out pulling the rappelling rope.
They fell almost like a free fall, only pulled the rope when they were close to the ground, and slowed down a little, more than two hundred Red Scorpion fighters reached the ground in the blink of an eye. Many high-ranking fighters also carry huge weapons and supply boxes, some even taller than their men.
With just one move, the Red Scorpion Legion is fully elite.
Although Zhang Zizi was quite uncomfortable, he had to admit that the soldiers of the Third Legion he led were not even a little bit worse than the Red Scorpion. Once such an elite force appears on the battlefield in an organized manner, it will become a force to turn the tide of the battle.
The Red Scorpion fighters of the two brigades scattered around, and in an instant they controlled the airship field and all the key points facing Heiliu City. The last man who jumped out of the hatch was directly suspended in the air without using the rappelling rope. On the epaulets, the general star was shining, and he turned out to be a brigadier general!
After everything on the ground was ready, the hatch of the high-speed transport ship hovering in the air opened wide, and a huge metal box with a length of more than ten meters was pushed out from the inside, pulled by dozens of slings, and slowly lowered to the ground.
Zhang Zizi focused his eyes. Could it be that the Red Scorpions of the two brigades came here to protect this thing
Song Zining suddenly said: "Hey, Master Shizi, aren't you from the Angel with Broken Wings? I'll go and find out which battalion they are from later."
To Song Zining's rude instigation, Wei Potian rarely sneered, but only asked, "Which battalion did Qianye belong to?"
"How do I know?" Before Wei Potian had an attack, Song Zining said flatly, "These are trivial details, you and I can't do anything. I just passed on a message to him."
Wei Potian fell silent, his brows were solemn. Song Zining didn't speak any more, and quietly watched the busy Red Scorpion warriors outside the city. The logo of the Special Elite Legion is very easy to recognize. On the pure black imperial military uniform, the collar and placket are embroidered with scarlet, and there is a striking red scorpion pattern on the upper arm.
The Heiliu war zone is gradually surging.
Qianye was sitting on a rock, looking down at the valley below.
In the valley, there are layers of winding roads on the edge of the artificial excavation for trucks to drive. At the bottom of the valley, several metal monsters with a height of tens of meters were breathing steam, and they were digging into the ground with giant shovels several stories high. Every time they shoveled down, tons of black stones were pushed out.
This is an open-pit blackstone mine, and its output ranks among the top three in the earl's territory. Its greatest value lies in its convenient transportation and open-pit mining, so it can easily use large-scale steam machinery. Although the mine is large, there are not many slave miners. Most of them are technicians who operate and maintain mining equipment.
Such an important mine is the heart of Earl Stuka. Even though its location was within the earl's direct jurisdiction, Stuka still sent his nephew, a third-class nerubian viscount, to guard it.
Qianye observed silently for a while, and after memorizing the terrain and the distribution of the garrison troops, he turned and disappeared into the vast hills.
In a valley tens of kilometers away from the mine, Darkfire has set up a secret camp. Hundreds of elite fighters are resting and practicing.
Qianye returned to the camp and ordered: "Four hours later, we will have dinner, and then we will set off. Launch an attack at twelve o'clock sharp."
In the short daylight hours of the Eternal Night Continent, it is said that the power of the dawn at noon is the strongest, and it is also the rest time for many dark races, especially the bottom people who have not completely escaped from the beast form.
At noon, the originally noisy mine was quieter, only a few slaves were still doing some chores, and the mining vehicles stopped. To drive this steel behemoth, at least a third-level fighter is required.
On the outskirts of the mine, the guards also became lazy, and many minion spiders lay motionless in the middle of the spider webs. They were actually sleeping.
This mine has been quiet for more than ten years, so long that the guards are about to forget what war is.
A two-meter-tall spider spider lay folded between the two railroad tracks, with stretched spider webs under its body, front and back, covering an area of hundreds of meters in white. Everywhere is its control area, guarding the core route leading to the mine.
Not far from the top of the hill, Qianye's figure appeared. He weighed the force grenade in his hand, then took a deep breath and threw it forcefully.
The grenade streaked across the sky, flew hundreds of meters away, and landed right in front of the spider. The flying grenade was reflected in the spider's compound eyes, but it moved sluggishly and didn't react in time. At this time, it actually just woke up from a deep sleep and was in a daze.
The grenade fell, pierced the web, and hit the rocks.
The force grenade that had been adjusted to the impact detonation mode suddenly exploded, lifting the huge body of the spider into the air. After the explosion, another wave of fire spread in all directions.
This is an incendiary grenade. The flame that uses compressed force as fuel is extremely hot, making it difficult to extinguish. However, the spider webs were extremely fragile under the flames, and they were broken in an instant. The flying spider threads raised the flames, and the fire spread rapidly.
Dozens of dark fire elites appeared behind Qianye. Under the order, some of them rushed forward quickly, and the rest began to set up heavy firepower such as anti-aircraft machine guns on the spot.
After the arrangement was completed, Qianye was not in a hurry, and signaled that the command of the battle was delegated to each combat unit. He himself lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and immediately lifted his spirits.
This is a pure military stimulant, and it is of medium quality, but Qianye still misses the taste of the imitations he made back then, so he was distracted thinking that he must remember to make some for himself when he goes back this time.
Just halfway through smoking a cigarette, Qianye suddenly picked up the eagle strike, took a little aim, and pulled the trigger straight to the end. Hundreds of meters away, a nerubian that had just emerged from its lair was suddenly shaken, and half of its head disappeared instantly.
Qianye threw the unfinished cigarette on the ground, picked up the eagle strike, and strode towards the mine.
Until then, the siren had just sounded, which showed that the defense of the mine was lax.
Although guards kept emerging from various caves, and thousands of spiders crawled out all over the mountains and plains, hundreds of dark fire fighters actually pushed forward layer by layer against the opponent's defensive front, knocking the guards back continuously.
Qianye brought out all the elites. The firepower of this commando was extremely fierce. One after another, the incendiary grenades were thrown as if they were free of money, and the anti-aircraft machine guns never stopped roaring.
Although these conventional firepower are not very effective against advanced fighters, they are very effective against the large but fragile cannon fodder.
Suddenly there was an earth-shattering roar from the mine, and a nerubian rushed out of its lair. He is also half-human, half-spider, but at least half taller than other nerubians, looking like a spider-shaped chariot.
Amidst the roar, the Nerubian rushed towards the Darkfire fighters against the hail of bullets. The large-caliber machine gun bullets shot at him, all of which were bounced off by the heavy armor, and even the anti-aircraft machine gun returned in vain.
A Lieutenant Colonel of Darkfire hurled a force grenade, which landed perfectly, just where the Nerubian's next step was. After the violent explosion, the lieutenant colonel stared dumbfounded as the terrifying nerubian was only bounced up one meter, then fell to the ground, flapped its limbs, and rushed forward as if nothing had happened.
The nerubian held a long-handled battle ax in one hand, and a force rifle in the other, but it seemed that he was not very good at using a gun. He only fired a few shots before charging, which was really not accurate.
At this time, he was less than 100 meters away from the front line of the dark fire fighters, so he suddenly swung the four-meter-long battle axe, and a blue-black original force light swept out in an arc, and the ground was immediately stirred up layer by layer. .
Seeing this, the senior officers of Darkfire in front hurriedly defended with their original force, while the weaker fighters hurriedly evaded, but the colorful original force shield collapsed at the touch of a button. Fortunately, the distance between the two sides was still far away. Although the soldiers in the front were forced to retreat, no one was injured.
This is the nerubian viscount who guards the mine. Although he is only a third-class viscount, a viscount is a viscount, and he is not something ordinary human soldiers can deal with.
Qianye whistled twice, signaling the dark fire warrior in front to retreat, while throwing the eagle strike in his hand to the guards around him, pulled out Dongyue, took big strides, and rushed towards the Nerubian Viscount.
He ran faster and faster, and every step he took would cause the earth to tremble. Just looking at the momentum of his running, Qianye's tall and thin body seemed to be heavier than the Nerubian Viscount.
In the blink of an eye, the two met on the middle line, Qianye yelled, and flew up, Dongyue swung horizontally, and cut him in the middle!
The spider demon roared loudly, raised the battle ax in his hand, and blocked Dongyue with a thick steel ax handle the size of a bowl. In contrast, Qianye's sword is only half the length of the battle axe, and it seems that he will be knocked away with just one touch.
However, when the sword and the ax intersected, the Nerubian Viscount suddenly shook, and his huge body flew off the ground. He only felt the overwhelming power from the battle axe, and the handle of the ax was slowly twisting in front of his eyes. Only then did the nerubian hear the crisp sound of his arms cracking continuously.
Qianye's face was flushed, and he was a little surprised to see that his sword didn't break the battle axe. With a hey sound, he spit out a stream of white air, and with the power of both hands, Dongyue bounced up again and slashed out obliquely.
Viscount Spider Demon's arms were newly injured, and the tomahawk was bounced away when he touched Dongyue. He could only watch helplessly as the heavy sword cut through his waist. Then, the humanoid upper body and the spider body were completely separated, flew high, and fell far towards the mine pit.
