Chapter 587 Chapter five hundred and fortieth eight will be punished!

Night fell. The sky tonight is particularly gloomy, with patches of clouds pressing over from the far horizon, covering both the starry sky and the moonlight, only the moon, occasionally showing some faint light through the gaps in the clouds. On the city wall, the defenders lit torches, and Roenthal, who replaced the injured General Miro, observed the orc camp in the distance with binoculars for a while, and muttered in a low voice, "Goddess bless you." At night, the orc's camp in the distance is particularly scary.The orc camps that stretched for dozens of miles were brightly lit.

Countless torches piled up densely in the orc camp, and it seemed that the flames that spanned tens of miles were particularly shocking. And at this time, there was a soft rushing sound from above the sky. Hidden in the clouds all over the sky, one after another hot air balloon airships revealed their silhouettes. Thanks to God's blessing, the night and clouds provided them with sufficient 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 dispatched more than 1,500 of the largest hot air balloon airships and 200 small escort airships at one time.

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. Hot air balloons flew quietly over the orc camp one by one. A large number of hot air balloons formed formations in the air. The first air force of the empire was forming a team according to their daily strict training. A dense formation, carefully maintaining order and spacing.

Under the faint moonlight, the secret weapons that surpassed the entire era produced in the imperial factory hung under the airship one by one. The weapons named "bombs" by the Duke of Tulip were like hanging vines one by one. Like the grapes on the table. The Imperial Air Force was given cover at night, but it also caused some troubles to the Imperial Air Force—in this era without communication tools, during daily training, the Air Force could still use the telescopes and observers equipped on the airship to check the distance between the airship and the airship. Follow the command with the flag on the flagship in the ship.But at night... high above the sky, the flag is unrecognizable.

But this time, it is more based on feeling. Among the army of orcs, in the tents, orc warriors were sleeping. Occasionally, those patrolling orc soldiers did not notice the abnormality in the sky. Even the orc warriors on the watchtower were a little lax, only occasionally looking in the direction of the human city wall in the distance. The orc's giant rock didn't sleep. It was in its own tent, discussing something with some of its relatives, several leaders of the rhinoceros clan.Rock was in a bad mood, although White Rhino General Bastin vowed to wash away his shame with victory.But the previous battle made Rock understand that human beings are not as weak as imagined.

It seems... that Elf King was right. "A battle tomorrow, I think..." The rock was about to say something, but at this moment a loud noise interrupted its words! ! boom! ! In the night, the sound of this explosion immediately broke the silence!The sound of the explosion seemed to be very close to the rock tent, and then there was a fire outside! The orc leaders in the tent were stunned for a while, and then rushed out immediately, yelling! At this time, the human air strike has been fully launched! After the first bomb was dropped, it happened to land on a tent. After the gunpowder exploded, the flame quickly completely ignited that tent!When the sleeping orc warrior woke up, he rushed out of the tent that had turned into a ball of flames in a chaotic manner!

In the dark, the explosion of the bomb not only brought flames, but the bomb after the Northwest improvement was also filled with a considerable part of iron sheets and nails, etc. Once it exploded, it immediately became a flame. The "blossom bomb" that Du Wei knew in his previous life! The iron flakes and iron nails stirred up in the explosion, causing a lot of damage to the orcs. And above the sky, a string of bombs roared down from the sky and poured into the orc barracks! In just a few breaths, the camp of the orc army was already full of flames!There were constant explosions around, and most of the orcs hadn't woken up from the shock. More and more orcs rushed out of the tents and barracks, yelling and running around the camp in a daze.

Many orcs haven't even figured out where this explosion is coming from.It's just that the surroundings were surrounded by flames, and the secret explosion made the orcs' screams full of a miserable flavor. "What's going on! What happened!!" The rock roared angrily. No one can answer. Because at the moment most orcs are asking the same question in their hearts! Looking down from a high altitude, the first round of bombing was halfway through, and countless sparks had already bloomed in this area of ​​the orc camp. Countless orcs were exclaiming, screaming, and running blindly, but what awaited them were more bombs falling from the sky!

"Fly forward! Continue to fly forward! Strengthen the depth!!!" In the air, because the night could not use the flag to command, the soldiers could only desperately shout at their companions. Although this kind of efficiency is very low, and it also brings some troubles to the smooth progress of human plans, 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 they didn't know where they were going.Some of those bombs landed on the barracks, and some fell on the pile of orcs. The flames and shrapnel from the explosive bombs were constantly killing the orcs.

Finally, when the first round of human bombing was over, the orc barracks in the bombing area were already ablaze!Even the orcs in the chaos ran back and forth and trampled, causing some orcs to die at the feet of their companions. At this time, a sharp-eyed orc finally 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 make a 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 observers on the airship roared vigorously. When the second round of bombs was dropped, the orcs finally started sporadic counterattacks. But such a counterattack is obviously a bit weak. Because there is a lack of archers among the orcs, especially the orcs of the hoof tribe who are in charge of the main attack this time. Those orcs who are mainly cattle and horses are strong and some have brute force, but arms like archers pay more attention to skills rather than skills. brute force.Archers have always been very, very rare among orcs because of a birth defect. Moreover, sporadic bow and arrow warriors began to design towards the sky, but the chaos in the night made such shooting lack of accuracy, and... those human airships are too high! Only some elite archers can shoot their arrows to such a high position. Most of the archers who shoot blindly are just wasting their precious arrows and strength. In the second round of bombing, more bombs poured down from the sky.More and more orcs became flustered and panicked. Although Yan Yan immediately ordered his personal guards to lead people to act as a supervisory team to maintain order, and even beheaded nearly 200 orcs running in panic in one go, but it could barely slow down the spread of panic. "These humans! What the hell kind of weapons are they using!!" The orcs were angry, and the rock was also angry. Could it be a group of magicians attacking? ? The two rounds of bombing lasted nearly an hour. In an hour's time, a large area of ​​the orc camp was engulfed in flames, and a large number of orcs lost their armor and weapons, and ran around, blindly!The orc's camp is too big. Although the human bombing has strengthened the depth as much 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 crowded and rushed to those safe areas, trying to avoid the blow from the air, but instead spread the panic! Those areas that were still safe around were quickly overrun by panicked orcs!Those intact tents and barracks were crushed and trampled by the group of orcs. Countless orcs who heard the movement and ran out of the barracks were blindly wrapped in the rout. More and more people were trampled to death and injured! At this time, Rock, who is a giant, stepped forward! The holy rank powerhouse among the orcs grabbed a long knife and jumped up suddenly!Then it threw the knife in its hand fiercely at an airship in the sky! Under the majestic power of the strong man of the holy rank, the big knife immediately burst into a ball of golden light, like a shooting star soaring into the sky! Even though it was hundreds of meters above the sky, the airship couldn't dodge at all, it was concentrated with a bang, and turned into pieces! "Calm down!!!!!!!!!!!!" The panicked orcs heard a roar like thunder!The sound was like thunder, and it hit the hearts of the orcs like a heavy hammer! "Calm down!!! Calm down!!!!!!" The rock roared with all its strength, and its powerful holy power made its voice spread all over the place very 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 into the night, and after it roared several times, it finally gathered groups of chaotic troops around it, and it quickly led a group of people, running around in the camp non-stop , the powerful holy rank power gave it enough speed, it slashed and killed all the way without mercy, and killed the orcs who dared to take the lead in running on the spot! After suppressing the other orcs with blood and cruelty, it began to issue orders one after another! After the third round of humans ended, the camp with an area of ​​more than seven or eight miles was turned into ruins, and the orcs had crowded around. The rock giant led a large number of rhino guards, running back and forth to maintain order, and soon like a snowball, more and more chaos were gathered. "Crossbow bolts! Push the crossbow bolts out!!!" The fourth round of human air strikes came a bit later than scheduled, because some confusion occurred in the formation of the human air force. In the night sky, the poor visibility made some formations almost collide. When the airship of the fourth round of air strikes flew over the head of the orcs, the rock had already led a group of rebels who had settled down and started an organized counterattack. Among the orc army, some crossbow arrows made by dwarves were moved out. Although the number is small, less than a hundred crossbow bolts, this kind of long-range weapon can just restrain the enemies in the sky. The fourth round of airship formation that had just flown over the head of the orc camp was immediately attacked head-on!Dozens of crossbow arrows shot into the air.Although the orcs' talent in shooting was flawed, the covering shots of dozens of crossbow arrows still caused several airships flying in the front to be hit, and three of the airships were hit by hot air balloons, which soon turned into A ball of fire fell from the sky! Humans have to increase the flying altitude, but the increased altitude 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 in a controlled manner.Some orcs have even learned to disassemble the wooden planks and hold them above their heads, while more orcs have grabbed the shields. Rock snatched a bow from the hand of an orc archer beside him, but under his agitation, he used too much force, but tore the bow apart.Then the angry orc giant rushed into the barracks and took out a bundle of spears! At this time, the holy rank powerhouse showed its power! Spear after spear, thrown by its powerful force, flew into the sky like golden meteors one after another, accurately shooting down human airships one after another! Seeing the enemies in the air being shot down, the panicked orcs burst into cheers one after another, and their panic finally began to stabilize. Among the orcs, some high-level warriors also started to grab their spears and throw them into the sky!But at a height of hundreds of meters, it is difficult for even a high-level fighter to throw a spear 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, and instantly increased their combat effectiveness by about three times! More and more spears flew into the sky, and the human air force could clearly feel the pressure increase. Those spears had a higher range and more power! In the fourth round of 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, he 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. The chaos in the orc camp did not finally subside until dawn. The orc camps over ten miles away were affected, and in the most severely damaged area, almost all the barracks were destroyed. Most of the fires in the camp had been extinguished, and occasionally there were black smoke rising from some ashes. On the ground, the scorched earth and the blood of the orcs had solidified into large black and red patches. The corpses of the dead orcs were gathered together, the ruins of the barracks in the camp, as well as discarded armor and weapons... Many wounded orcs were receiving treatment. One by one, their faces were full of fireworks. Some were burned, some were wounded by shrapnel, and some were stepped on by their 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 nearly 6,000 were injured!Seriously injured orcs who lost their combat effectiveness, closer to a thousand! This statistic 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 is far from enough to form a fatal kill.As for the shrapnel from the flower bombs, they can only cause damage to the orcs, but they are not fatal. Most of the orcs who died were caused by trampling each other in chaos. This battle went smoothly, but without the knowledge of both sides, human beings lost an extremely precious opportunity to expand the results of the battle! ! ... "Fool!!! It's just stupid!!" A few days later, Du Wei in the imperial capital received a military report from the front.The military newspaper was not surprised by the result of the first round of orc siege. He was very confident in the main wall of the Kaspersky line of defense that he participated in shooting. Judging from the battle report, the first battle was fought beautifully. First, they deliberately showed weakness to lure the enemy to attack, and deliberately let the orc army climb 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, and then devoured the opponent in one bite.This battle was fought beautifully, and the greatest results were reaped. According to subsequent calculations and estimates, the orcs probably lost more than 10,000 yuan, which can be said to be a big victory. But what made Du Wei angry was the second article in the battle report, the paragraph about the air raid at night! "Stupid! Extremely stupid!!" After Du Wei finished reading, he slapped the table hard, and in anger, he immediately tore the battle report in his hand to pieces! "Night air strikes! Rostock really figured it out!!! Even if Rostock doesn't understand, isn't Andrei a fool! Just listen to Rostock's reckless behavior! Night air strikes! Fuck! Think this primitive air force is the US military in the 21st century Ah! No ground guidance! No advanced observation instruments! No precise coordinate survey!! Air strikes at night? In the dark night, relying on soldiers at high altitude to bomb with their naked eyes and senses??!! It’s a waste of our ammunition!!! There is no electronic communication system, and in the environment at night, there is no means of command in the air, and even the smallest flags can’t be seen! How to command the bombing? It’s just random bombing!!!” Du Wei's expression was 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 shouldn't be airstrikes at night!! The orcs obviously didn't join the battle!! There is no means of attacking us from the air! Then why not go airstrikes in broad daylight!!! The enemy has no effective means of air strikes, Is there a difference between day and night??? What the hell is in Rostock's head!!! Why didn't he attack during the day, why did he wait until night? Are you asking for trouble for yourself???" The more Du Wei spoke, the more annoyed he became, and finally he even roared: "Also! What else to say in the end, according to estimates, the air strike was a great success?? Thousands of enemies were injured?? Fucking thousands of enemies were injured!! Since you can Let the enemy kill thousands, the orc camp must be in chaos!! At this time, why not leave the city and use the ground army to rush over to attack!! Since the air strike can make the opponent's camp fall into chaos, such a good opportunity, if you can send If the army attacks on the ground, it is easy for the opponent to blow up the camp!! Once the hundreds of thousands of orc troops blow up the camp, as long as the cavalry is used to drive them away, the result of this battle will be expanded by at least dozens of times!!! If you're lucky, you might drive the orcs back into the frozen forest!! Andre is an idiot!! Rostock doesn't understand, you Andre have been with me in the northwest for two years, how many times have I told you Did you fucking forget about the last tactic?!!! Air bombing, throwing the enemy into chaos, and then the ground troops to keep up with the mopping up!!!! This is the kingly way!! I have never heard of ground Troops, the enemy can be defeated by air bombing alone!! There is no such awesome air force in the 21st century! How dare you use this primitive hot air balloon?? There is no ground follow-up troops, Only by air strikes?? When the U.S. military attacked Iraq, the air force bombed and added missiles. Such a powerful air strike required ground troops from several divisions to follow up to defeat the enemy! !Do you think this primitive air force of hot air balloons is stronger than the fucking U.S. military? ? ! It's not 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. His angry roar was heard even by the guards standing guard outside the dean's office.Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, wondering why the Duke was so angry... Could it be that the front line lost?But hearing the news, 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 from his hands! ! During the war, if you miss an opportunity, you will be punished! ! According to the current situation from the front, it is obvious that the criminals north of Kaspersky's line of defense are pure orc troops, and there are no elves!No air power! ! Don't you take advantage of this time to use all the power of the air force and bully the opponent fiercely? Shouldn't you wait until the opponent sends the elves up before fighting? ? Damn it!Damn it! ! From the data, and this battle report, it also described in detail how the camp was in chaos after the orcs were attacked by air! ! Damn, if 30,000 were sent 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! ! ! In this era of cold weapons, there is a lack of effective instant messaging tools. Once the hundreds of thousands of primitive cold weapons troops blow up the camp, unless the commander is a god, he will definitely not be able to control the situation! ! ! Then, if you are lucky, you will be able to disintegrate the opponent's army and drive them back to the frozen forest! ! ! Now…… "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 is very difficult to see how useful this pure 'bombing force' can be. It’s hard to say... Sigh... Andre, Andre, those tactics I taught you, have you put all the fucking behind your head!!" If you waste an opportunity, you will 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 come out!! Is this the explanation?" The officer felt helpless in the face of Andre's anger. His rank was too low to dare to argue with the general, but he said slowly: "General Andre, Master Rostock means that your army , After all, it is a new army, we can't take too many risks... Of course, after this air strike, we have confirmed the power of your army, so after this test, we can fight according to your The proposed new tactics have been implemented. This is just a test, and you know that if you are not sure, sending troops at night to raid the enemy's fortified camp head-on is a very risky act." "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 let out a long sigh. He understands that no matter how confident he is, no matter how confident Lord Tulip is.But for General Rostock, the commander of the Storm Legion, he doesn't understand the air force, and he doesn't understand the power of the air force. Therefore, he had to see real evidence to prove the capabilities of the Air Force in order to convince him. 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 of this era have no idea about such an army! Now, it seems that after Rostock saw the results of this air raid, he finally believed in his air force...but he ruined an excellent opportunity! ! For the first time in his life, General Andre felt dissatisfaction and suspicion towards his old boss, General Rostock! It would be great if... if the frontline coach was Lord Tulip... ... "Is this an official document sent by Du Wei?" In the imperial palace, in the regent's study, the Vice Minister of Military Affairs Camisiro had 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, and the two victory 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, so he gritted his teeth and said directly: "Your Highness, this official document is a copy sent to the command by the Duke of Tulip in his capacity as a general of the Imperial Army through official channels... Impeach!" "Impeachment?" Prince Chen smiled: "What did he say?" "In his official document, he severely accused the front-line commander, General Rostock, and the air force commander, General Andre, for missing the opportunity... He also said that if you miss the opportunity, you will be punished." Prince Chen: "..."
