Following Yuyang's order, a hundred heavy artillery that had already entered the position fired at the same time, firing three hundred powerful high-explosive shells within one minute. In order to avoid being hit by the enemy's artillery fire, these heavy artillery fired back to the bunker at the fastest speed after completing the three-shot burst.
It's just that the heavy artillery is not aimed at the humanoid rock demon army rushing towards the defense.
After dozens of seconds, as three hundred high-explosive shells fell, the artillery position behind the Simei army turned into a sea of flames. Those artillery that began to show off and pose a serious threat to the human legion on the line of defense suffered an extinction. The heavy artillery of the Silicon Charm army suddenly became dumb.
It can be said that this is an extremely beautiful artillery strike.
Although this was the first time he commanded a large-scale ground battle, Yang Yi's learning ability was extremely strong, and he immediately realized that the greatest threat was not the Silicon Charm army that had already reached the front of the defense line, but the artillery in the distance. Under the suppression of artillery fire, not only officers and soldiers on the defensive line were unable to fight on the ground, even heavy tanks could hardly survive after leaving the bunker, so as long as the enemy’s artillery is still firing, don’t want to hold on to the defensive line.
After making this judgment, Yang Yi immediately asked Yuyang to adjust the deployment.
At this time, the detectors provided by the Zhixing clan played a vital role.
These detectors, which have been hovering above the Silicon Charm army, discovered the enemy's artillery positions in time, and provided the most important information for the human army to carry out artillery counterattacks. It is precisely because of knowing the exact position of the enemy’s artillery positions that when the enemy’s artillery is suppressing artillery fire, the heavy artillery of the human legion has the opportunity to counterattack, and it only takes one counterattack to destroy all the enemy’s long-range artillery, at least it has been exposed. Long-range artillery. If there is no accurate information, let alone a hundred heavy artillery pieces, even one thousand heavy artillery pieces will not help.
More importantly, this artillery counterattack effectively contained the enemy's attack.
With the end of the enemy's artillery suppression, the four hundred heavy tanks on the position once again smashed out of the bunker, and began to fire on the humanoid rock demon who charged up.
There is no need to use expensive armor-piercing shells to deal with humanoid rock monsters, and high-explosive shells are more efficient.
Although the main gun of a heavy tank is not comparable to a heavy artillery, the power of the high-explosive shells fired is also huge enough to kill the humanoid rock monster. More importantly, the main guns of heavy tanks fire faster. There is no need to aim when dealing with cluster targets, and the rate of fire can reach 15 rounds per minute.
In addition to the main gun, the heavy tank is also equipped with a small-caliber cannon.
Four hundred heavy tanks are four hundred mobile firepower points.
No longer worrying about being hit by artillery fire, all four hundred heavy tanks stayed on the battlefield, becoming the strongest firepower output point on the battlefield.
At the same time, the officers and men of the four legions all got on the ground and started firing at the oncoming enemy.
Although the humanoid rock demon rushing in the forefront was less than 500 meters away from the human legion's line of defense, the last 500 meters became an insurmountable sky moat. Because the commander at the rear did not give an order to retreat, even if it was hit by a covered fire, the 150,000 humanoid rock monsters in the 15 legions did not stop, and they were still advancing without turning back, and then there was no suspense. Become cannon fodder.
It can be said that this is not a fight at all, but a massacre.
Although the humanoid rock demon is also firing at the human officers and soldiers on the ground, there are trenches and bunkers, and the casualties suffered by the human officers and soldiers are minimal.
After a few minutes, the enemy commander finally realized that there was nothing like a strong attack, and issued an order to retreat.
In just a few minutes, at least tens of thousands of rock demons were killed. Even if they were evacuated by chance, most of them were seriously injured.
The battle did not end, just moved to another place.
When the humanoid rock demon army withdrew, the artillery of the Silicon Charm army spoke.
Obviously, the commander of the Silicon Magic Army also realized that the human army on the line of defense is not to be feared, and the heavy artillery deployed in the barracks is the threat.
The shelling was extremely fierce and accurate.
The first few rounds of fire covered the positions of the heavy artillery. Although most of the artillery shells were intercepted and did not fall, many artillery shells still exploded in the barracks.
However, it still doesn't make much sense.
Quite simply, before the Simei army launched its artillery counterattack, the one hundred heavy artillery had already withdrawn to the bunker, and did not remain in the position where it had fired before.
Obviously, the Silicon Magic Army does not understand the situation of the Human Legion, let alone accurately grasp the movements of the Human Legion.
In contrast, Yang Yi can grasp every move of the Silicon Charm army in real time.
At the time when the Silicon Charm army fought back with artillery fire, Yang Yi asked Yuyang to give orders. Before the end of the shelling by the Silicon Charm army, the one hundred heavy artillery that moved to the reserve position fired again. The result is obvious, the long-range artillery that is firing at the barracks have all been wiped out.
It can be said that this is a battle between artillery.
If there is any advantage to the Silicon Charm army, it is that there are enough long-range artillery, while the human legion only has a hundred heavy artillery. In other words, even if they were hit hard and suffered heavy losses, the artillery of the Silicon Magic Army would not immediately lose their combat effectiveness. Relatively speaking, the human legion cannot afford too much loss. As long as there is a mistake and the enemy seizes the opportunity, the main long-range firepower will be lost.
Fortunately, such a thing did not happen.
In the artillery battle that lasted for several hours, the Silicon Magic army lost at least thousands of long-range artillery pieces, while the Human Legion had less than ten heavy artillery pieces damaged, and only minor damage. According to the artillery report, these damaged heavy artillery can be repaired, but it will take some time.
The shells of these few hours also completely destroyed the confidence and fighting spirit of the commander of the Silicon Charm army.
To put it bluntly, as long as the heavy artillery of the human army is still firing, let alone a hundred Silicon Charm army, even if there are a thousand Silicon Charm army, it may not be able to win. More importantly, launching an offensive before suppressing the heavy artillery of the Human Legion is to send the Silicon Charm Legion to death.
The problem is that only relying on the long-range firepower of the Silicon Charm Corps cannot suppress the heavy artillery of the human legion.
The shells that lasted for several hours have proved this.
Although the commander of the Silicon Charm army has realized that the opponent has a reliable way to obtain battlefield intelligence and has mastered every move of the Silicon Charm army, otherwise the heavy artillery cannot be so sharp, let alone avoiding the Silicon Charm army every time. Of shelling. However, the commander of the Silicon Magic Army can only sigh, because after playing for so long, the Silicon Magic Army did not find those small detectors hovering above it.
With no other choice, the commander of the Silicon Magic army can only call for support.
With the re-emergence of the Silicon Charm battleships, the fierce artillery battle ended.
Although the power of heavy artillery is huge, as long as it hits directly, it can definitely destroy the small warships of the Silicon Magic Alliance, but no one will use heavy artillery to deal with warships.
Quite simply, the rate of fire of the heavy artillery is too slow, and the speed of the artillery shells is not fast enough, the probability of hitting the battleship is almost zero.
Faced with the battleships of the Silicon Magic Alliance, Yang Yi also had nothing to do, only to get the heavy artillery to withdraw to the bunker.
It's just that the enemy came prepared this time.
After the battleship started bombing, Yang Yi discovered that it was not the artillery positions that were bombed, but the air defense positions, that is, the air defense weapons deployed in the barracks.
Now, the problem is serious.
Although the anti-aircraft weapons are protected, each anti-aircraft turret has a separate energy barrier, and is directly driven by the SSS-class primordial energy converter. When necessary, soldiers can be sent to strengthen it, which is sufficient to cope with general attacks. Under the circumstance of focused bombing, the energy barrier cannot be maintained forever. Because the anti-aircraft turrets are all fixed and cannot be maneuvered and evaded like heavy artillery, as long as the energy barrier is damaged, it will be destroyed. Without an anti-aircraft turret, the entire barracks would be exposed to enemy warships. At that time, the enemy will not have to launch a ground offensive at all, and only through bombing can completely destroy the barracks and kill all the human officers and soldiers in the barracks.
Obviously, the enemy has found the right tactic.
For this reason, Yuyang proposed to send a special reconnaissance team and a female warrior guard to strengthen the anti-aircraft turret, that is, to use its own small original energy converter to strengthen the energy barrier. The female warriors all have S-level original energy converters, and the officers and soldiers of the special reconnaissance squad are not bad, and they can definitely hold on for a while.
The question is, how long can it last
Besides, the Special Reconnaissance Brigade and the Female Warrior Guard are the trump cards in Yang Yi's hand, and they are the only mobile units that can go deep behind enemy lines and fight alone. If it is used to fight the enemy, even if it only consumes the ubiquitous original energy, it is tantamount to violent things.
In addition, in Yang Yi's view, the best defense is offense.
The enemy has begun to attack the barracks, and the battle has lasted for several hours. Although the defense line has not been breached, it is still in the hands of the human legion, but it has been pressed and beaten by the enemy, and the officers and soldiers on the defense line will definitely be affected. There is no problem now, just because there are not too many casualties. As the fighting continues, casualties are definitely unavoidable. At that time, the morale of the frontline army will definitely be a problem.
To change this situation, the only way is to launch a decent counterattack, and use victory to boost the morale and fighting spirit of the officers and soldiers.
In fact, Yang Yi has realized this a long time ago, and has been waiting for the opportunity.
In addition, before this, the situation is not urgent, at least the morale of the frontline army is not a problem, and there is no need to rush to launch a counterattack.
With the arrival of the Simei battleship again and the focus on bombing the air defense turrets of the barracks, Yang Yi has no other choice.
Even from the perspective of the battle situation, now is not the best time to launch a counterattack, because even if you win, it will not help much to improve morale. However, if the Simei warships were allowed to bombard unscrupulously, even if they did not suffer losses, they would have been attacked by the enemy, causing officers and soldiers to lose their confidence and hope for victory.
Considering these, Yang Yi did not adopt Yuyang's suggestion, but decided to change from passive to active.
If the Silicon Charm battleships can be killed in front of millions of soldiers on both sides, it will not only inspire the fighting spirit of human officers and soldiers, but also undermine the morale of the Silicon Charm fighters.
Killing two birds with one stone, why not do it
