Chapter 250: Battle of the Glacier
Leihuo base is located in the north, but in this month, the weather is also hot. Gao Lei unbuttoned the chest of his uniform and let the wind blow his collar to sway endlessly, but it only slightly reduced the heat. Big beads of sweat still emerged from his forehead, and then trickled down his big face. Gao Lei held his tactical binoculars and looked out from the commanding height of the defense wall of the base, just in time to have a full view of the entire northern part of the Hancrown Glacier.
In this season of the Hancrown Glacier, only a layer of floating ice on the surface thawed. Those thousands of years of black ice are as firm as steel, and are not affected by the hot weather at all. In Gao Lei's telescope, the coalition forces of the Sword Demon tribe came from the glacier plain like this.
The federation and the sword demon have been feuding for a long time, coupled with the beheading order issued by the ten departments, there is no possibility of any buffering of the war. Almost seeing the wall of the Leihuo base, the sword demon began to attack. The cannon fodder troops in front suddenly accelerated, and thousands of knife ants rushed in densely. Using servant beasts to consume human ammunition is the most traditional tactic of Sword Demon.
This tactic is no longer new, but it is practical and feasible, because the Federation really can't watch the sword ants rush to their position.
"These guys really don't know how to behave." Gao Lei put down the binoculars and said.
The adjutant laughed behind him, "They can't get past our minefields."
Around the base, a circle of minefields had already been laid. Only people in the base will know where the safe passage is. As for the sword demon, of course, cannon fodder must be used to fill the minefield so that the main force behind can pass. The infantry mines planted in the minefields are designed for land-based servants like sword ants. Infantry mines have been used since ancient times, and have not undergone much improvement since their development.
Compared with before the Dawn War, infantry landmines have also done a little work on the use and filling of gunpowder, which has increased a part of their power, but they cannot be compared with other new types of landmines. Infantry mines are simple to make, and have miraculous effects in suppressing these unique servant troops on Netherworld, so they are still widely used on the battlefield of Netherworld.
Just when the servant beast army was about to enter the minefield, the cannon fodder suddenly adjusted. The knife ants scattered away, and the distance between the servants was widened immediately, which surprised Gao Lei slightly. As a result, the role of minefields is greatly weakened. He set up the binoculars again, adjusted the magnification, and pulled the lens to the rear of the enemy. Finally, his eyes fell on a sword demon, which was different from others of the same kind. He sat on a giant black wolf. It was a strange species among horned wolves. It was a little bigger than ordinary horned wolves, with golden eyes, and white teeth in the wolf's kiss. The most striking thing was the single horn.
The golden unicorn is in the shape of a z, looking like a golden lightning bolt.
The sword demon on the wolf wears a dark red armor stomach. The armor stomach is full of rough taste. It is made of a mixture of skin and metal, and then painted with dark red paint. Looking at the enemy army, he was the only one wearing red armor, so Gao Lei recognized him immediately. The sword demon was gesturing, and the army sounded a corresponding horn. The red armored sword demon is the commander of the enemy army,
Use the horn to send orders to let the cannon fodder troops make corresponding tactical actions.
"Interesting." Gao Lei said, and said to the adjutant: "Let the officers at all levels prepare, and don't let the servants enter the defensive position."
As soon as the order went down, there were already explosions in the minefield. The cannon fodder troops began to enter the minefield, and the infantry mines planted on the ground detonated one by one. The sound of explosions continued, and balls of fire exploded on the glacial plain. The heat wave and shock wave made it impossible for the knife ants to crawl away normally, but the dispersed formation avoided the result of being bombarded by a large number of landmines.
Even though most of the mines in the minefield were detonated, many knife ants still broke through the area and began to attack the defensive positions of the base. Far apart, the soldiers located in the fortifications were free to attack under the orders of the officers. The army of about 1,000 people in the Leihuo base has been replaced with the Huohuo rifles/guns, even if the sequence is not activated, it will start shooting in normal mode. Fire rifles/guns are far superior to those eliminated armaments in terms of firepower and range.
The gunshots rang out, and the federal soldiers set up a firepower net, shooting the sword ants to death a hundred meters away. The lines of fire visible to the naked eye pierced the battlefield, and the armor of the knife ants could not defend against the penetration of the hot warheads. The knife ants fell in pieces, and the blue-yellow ant blood rolled out stained the ground.
The enemy's horns sounded again, short and passionate.
The main force consisting of thousands of infantry began to advance, and the dark sword demon infantry advanced along the passage opened by the servants, and prepared to attack the federal position with the help of the remaining sword ants. On the defensive wall, Gao Lei sneered and clenched his fists.
Seeing his gesture, the adjutant hastily issued the order.
At this time, heavy artillery and armored vehicles located in several firing positions began to roar. The gunner adjusted the angle of the heavy guns and then fired simultaneously. Amidst the dull sound of the cannon, a large group of flames exploded in the main force of the enemy army, devouring hundreds of sword demons.
With the firing of heavy artillery, the weapon system of Leihuo base also went into battle. The two forts on the commanding heights of the wall blasted out blue electric fires frequently. In the unique sound of high-energy cannons, the electric lights fell into the enemy camp, causing huge shocks again and again. The destructive power of the high-energy cannon is still higher than that of the heavy artillery. Even though there are only two forts, under the frequent bombing, the lives of the reaping sword demons are far better than those of the six heavy artillery armored vehicles.
Coupled with several firepower points, anti-aircraft machine guns went into battle, and hot metal jets swept back and forth in the enemy's formation like whips, causing countless deaths and injuries to the sword demon. Every meter they steal, they have to use hundreds or even more lives to make up for it.
The horn changed again.
The wolf cavalry on the two flanks of the enemy army finally went into battle. These wolf cavalry, who are considered elite soldiers in small and medium-sized tribes, moved like the wind. Even under heavy artillery fire, cannons, etc., they continued to penetrate the fire curtain and quickly approached the defensive position. , and penetrated by the left and right ends. After they joined the battle, the front line of the base finally ignited the flames.
Gao Lei responded quickly.
The front line began to shrink, reducing the attack surface, but the firepower was concentrated, so that the wolf cavalry who came and went like flying could not easily cross the line of fire. At the same time, non-commissioned officer-level soldiers were dispatched to counterattack the wolf cavalry. Under such adjustments, the wolf cavalry was immediately restrained, and could no longer penetrate the position as easily as before.
Suddenly there was a long horn sound from the enemy's side, and a new order was issued, but there was no new change in the sword demon's army. Just when Gao Lei was confused, an astonishing aura suddenly erupted at the front line, and the source power rose on the battlefield, condensing a projection of the original ancestor of the sword demon. The opponent even let a general mix with the infantry, and launched an attack at this time!
Sure enough, a general with the projection of the original ancestor on his head almost ran into the Federation's firepower net. The point where he has the most intensive firepower towards the base position is a punch. The original ancestor projection made the same gesture, but blasted a miserable green source of light beam from the phantom's fist, and blasted straight towards the position.
"Quickly form the barrier of honor!" On the ground, an officer shouted.
Hundreds of soldiers urged the source force at the same time, so the bracelets worn on their wrists were covered with silver circuits, and the soldiers' source force shields were activated. The shields are combined with each other to form a thick source barrier with six-sided light patterns. General Sword Demon's beam of source force hit the barrier, and the source forces of the two sides collided, causing an earth-shattering explosion.
The honor barrier flashed twice and disappeared. The soldiers supporting the barrier were all crushed to the ground by the shock wave of the explosion, but the general's attack was stopped, and no one was injured! The officer on the ground issued another order, and dozens of soldiers rushed up from behind. The fire rifles in their hands lit up with orange patterns, but they activated the sequence of the rifles.
The sword demon general had the final result of one blow, and when he was about to send out the second blow, suddenly a dense blaze of missiles flew out from the flame of source power that had not yet disappeared in front of him. The large number of missiles and the dense array made the general almost scream. He had no time to continue attacking, the projection fell forward to protect the general, and then exploded. Nearly a hundred missiles concentrated fire and bombarded, and the explosion flames collided and superimposed on each other within a short distance, and the power rose sharply.
Looking from a distance, a pillar of fire rose from the battlefield, and the nearby space source force was in a chaotic situation.
After the explosion, the general staggered and fell out of the pillar of fire. Although he died immediately, his whole body was scorched black and he was seriously injured. He was powerless to fight any more, so he barely got up from the ground, and ran back while holding his arms. Suddenly there was a blue light behind him, the general turned his head and couldn't help screaming. A blue electric fire rushed through his body, plowed across the ground, and swept towards the sword demon behind him, setting off a series of explosions.
The general, after being seriously injured, died under the fire of this high-energy cannon.
"it's time."
Gao Lei handed the tactical binoculars to the adjutant, and his eyes fell on the commander of the enemy army. His meaning couldn't be more obvious, but at this moment, the forcing officer said "Hey" and said, "Colonel, look behind them."
Gao Lei took the binoculars suspiciously and looked, only to see the sword demon in the red armor looking back frequently, as if something happened to their rear. As the camera zoomed out, Gao Lei saw behind the enemy army, the guard of the sword demon commander was rioting. In sight, a sword demon guard suddenly flew into the air, and then fell down spurting blood, as if under attack.
At this time, a rough warhammer appeared in Gao Lei's sight. Obviously, the owner of the warhammer was attacking the Sword Demon Guards. It's a pity that because the distance is too far, and the sword demon guards block the line of sight, it is impossible to see who it is.
Gao Lei put down the binoculars, looked at the adjutant suspiciously and said, "Have we arranged an ambush?"
The adjutant stared at him blankly, his expression said everything.
Gao Leiqi said: "That's weird, could it be General Mei Lin's people here?"
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he felt impossible. If the Queen of Roses, at least see the transport ship. However, the blue sky above the Hanguan Glacier was so clear at this time, how could there be a shadow of half a spaceship?
