Chapter 1316 The Northern Territory of the Empire
Hundred kilometers away from the northern border of the empire, the expedition army of the Wanjie civilization is resting here.
The giant eagle soaring in the sky landed quickly, turned into a human figure, and reported the situation to Zhou Yi, Gao Wen and others who were sitting there...
"Report to the general, the location of the enemy's border fortress has been confirmed..."
While speaking, Air Force Captain Clad quickly gave a detailed report against the map.
After confirming various intelligence information, Zhou Yi asked aloud while sorting out his thoughts...
"Captain Clad, have you found the figure of the enemy wingmen?"
"Report to the general, there are a few wingmen hovering over the enemy trenches."
"What is the length of the enemy's outer trench?"
"The length of the enemy's outer trenches is extremely long, and they are all reinforced semi-permanent trenches. Although they have not been measured in detail, according to the personal judgment of the lower official, it is impossible to bypass that line of defense, and I am afraid to go around halfway. , will be intercepted by enemy garrison troops.”
At this moment, Zhou Yi was very cautious, quickly confirming information one after another, and the closer he got to the enemy's border defense line, the more he slowed down.
Raid? Heh, he could completely imagine that a large number of mines had been planted in the outer area, and a surprise attack was impossible.
As the thoughts flew around, Zhou Yihe let out a breath of heat. Now that the season was in early winter, if possible, he still hoped to capture the enemy's frontier fortress before the weather became colder, so that they could. There is a shelter from the wind and snow.
Otherwise, it is too easy for diseases to break out when marching outside in the winter.
After a short rest, the army was soon dispatched again.
After a period of time, along with the gradually decreasing temperature, the expedition army of Wanjie Civilization officially pressed down!
Kaz Passi, who received the news at the first time, led the troops directly and rushed to the northern front all the way.
Behind the front, a total of 130 cannons were ready to go.
This is also a benefit of local operations, and it is completely possible to mobilize heavy ordnance in large quantities without considering transportation and logistical issues.
On the dangling hot air balloon, the scout holding the telescope is carefully observing the position of the enemy.
On the map of their empire, basically every inch of land is marked with clear coordinates in proportion.
As a scout dedicated to the artillery unit, he already knew the coordinates of the location in his chest, and he could quickly report the current location of the enemy without needing to compare the map at all.
"Bombing Coordinates Confirmed, (391, 267, 189)"
While he was talking, another soldier next to him hurriedly wrote the coordinates on a piece of paper, then stuffed it into a bamboo tube and slid down the rope that tied the hot air balloon.
The soldiers waiting below quickly pulled the note out of the bamboo tube, and then trotted all the way to the commander-in-chief of the artillery unit.
At this moment, the commander-in-chief who only heard the information took a deep breath and shouted loudly...
"Adjust the position of the shelling coordinates, (391, 267, 189), shoot!!!"
In the roar, after a while of movement, the muzzles of the black holes suddenly spewed fire snakes, and the roar of artillery fire echoed on the northern front. The expedition army swept the past!
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!!"
The expedition army, which was bombarded by the long-range side of Europa, fell into a brief panic.
In the past, due to the limitations of the mountain and forest terrain, their troops in the southern region used the most is the roller-mountain cannon with a relatively limited range of artillery, but they had less experience in dealing with this type of cannon and ultra-long-range artillery.
The other party's first wave of success has indeed affected them.
However, Zhou Yi was obviously not going to be so messed up.
A wave of skills was immediately picked up, and while stabilizing morale, he quickly signaled his artillery troops to launch a counterattack.
Captain Clad, who was flying in the air, quickly confirmed the location of the enemy artillery units. However, because they were not familiar with this terrain, it was obviously impossible for any coordinate markers to exist on the map.
In this way, he can only report an approximate position, and then, of course, it all depends on the ability of the dwarf artillerymen.
And at the same time, the scout on the opposite hot air balloon spoke again...
"Bombing Coordinate Calibration, (390, 264, 185)"
After a round of shelling, the coordinates of the second-calibrated shelling were quickly communicated, and the Europa Artillery Force, which seized the opportunity, soon launched a more accurate second round of shelling.
During this period, the artillery units of the expeditionary army also launched a counterattack not to be outdone.
However, the dwarf artillery, who could not obtain precise coordinates, was like a group of severely short-sighted, and one round of artillery was too far away.
Even with high-explosive shells with area damage, in this case, it is difficult to pose a threat to the enemy artillery units, let alone fire suppression.
Obviously, they are not familiar with the terrain, and it is difficult to seize any advantage in a short period of time when competing with long-range artillery. Zhou Yi, who realized this, decisively ordered, indicating that the main force should advance, and at the same time let the elf priests quickly cast After the buff spell, the air force is even more powerful!
On the northern front of the Europa garrison, an alarm was raised. The swift eagle riders and the giant eagle knights, temporarily commanded by Major Clark, approached the enemy line at the fastest speed, trying to launch aerial bombardment of the enemy artillery units. The prelude to the counterattack.
However, Kaz Passy was undoubtedly well prepared for this expected move.
Before they could get close, the air force composed of Flügel had already attacked!
At the same time as they spread their wings and fly into the air, Blessing and Divine Blessing were quickly blessed. Although after losing the Prayer Unit, they all had to rely on their own accumulated beliefs to perform magic, but it was just two simple auxiliary magics. , they still have no pressure to perform.
The two air units, who were already old rivals, soon fought together in the skies above the northern border of the empire.
In this battle, Clark, who was commanding the entire army for the first time, expressed that the pressure was very high, and his eyes quickly swept around. The hot air balloon flying high above the enemy's rear was really dazzling.
As long as you are not stupid, you can guess that it is definitely the scout on the hot air balloon, locking the position of the main army behind them at all times.
Clark wanted to shoot the hot air balloon down with one arrow.
But those Flügel were so annoying that he couldn't get out of it at all.
At this moment, this aerial battle can be said to have fallen into a stalemate as soon as it started.
