Chapter 923 Self-defeating
In the military camp of Delonboyad. In the second half of the night, which is the quietest time, the soldiers in the military camp were either sleeping or sitting cross-legged, meditating and practicing. The sudden scream broke the tranquility of the night. The explosion of artillery shells
The sound and the siren indicating an enemy attack rang together, and the entire military camp was like a pot exploding.
Delonboyade, who was practicing, suddenly woke up. After listening quietly for a few seconds, he shouted wildly: "The enemy's artillery is attacking at close range, small caliber, at three o'clock from the main entrance of the military camp, at a distance of three kilometers. The heavy infantry is attacking.
, destroy the enemy's artillery positions as quickly as possible."
After a pause for a few seconds, Delonboyade continued to shout orders: "Launch the anti-artillery net in the direction of the enemy's artillery fire. The number must be large, fast, fast, fast!"
The anti-cannon net is also a kind of magical equipment. All elite troops in the elixir world are equipped with this thing. To put it bluntly, this thing is a large net made of psychic energy. It is fired into the air with magic cannons. An anti-cannon net
After the net is deployed, it can cover hundreds to a thousand square meters. The special psychic energy fluctuations in the anti-cannon net can induce the premature explosion of magic shells hitting it.
However, anti-artillery nets are also divided into levels. Ordinary anti-artillery nets are only effective against small-caliber artillery shells; advanced anti-artillery nets are aimed at medium-caliber artillery shells; and top-level anti-artillery nets are effective against large-caliber and smaller artillery shells.
All artillery shells are effective. However, as of now, there is no artillery net in the elixir world that is effective against super-large caliber artillery shells such as battleship main guns.
From the time Delong Boyade's order was issued to the Shen soldiers launching the first anti-artillery net, Hai's sneak attack troops had fired more than thirty artillery shells. These more than thirty artillery shells fell into the Shen camp.
In the middle, a violent explosion occurred. From the center of the explosion, countless dark red shell fragments were shot out in all directions. At the same time, a scorching heat wave was emitted. The strange thing is that although the explosion and burning of these magic shells were very violent, the resulting
The flame was not conspicuous, but rather dim.
All the people and objects hit by the dark red shell fragments began to burn violently. The most terrifying thing was that these dark red shell fragments could directly penetrate the psychic shield of the senior warlock.
The body of the person who was hit by the dark red shell fragments quickly began to burn. The burning flames contained intense fire poison, which quickly spread throughout the body along with the blood and meridians. Moreover, this fire poison was extremely overbearing, and the person who was poisoned was not only his body, but also his body.
Even the soul felt like it was being burned, and the pain was unbearable.
The spiritual power of low-level warlocks could not stop the spread of this fire poison at all. In just a few breaths, the fire poison spread all over their bodies, wiping out their vitality.
The psychic powers of intermediate warlocks can only slow down the spread of fire poison but cannot control it. Some decisive people, seeing that they could not stop the spread of fire poison, ruthlessly cut off their poisoned hands or legs to save their lives. And those who hesitated were able to save their lives.
Those who are undecided will see the poison spread throughout their bodies and eventually lose their lives.
The spiritual power of a high-level warlock can suppress the spread of fire poison, but it is only a suppression. It cannot force the fire poison out of the body at all. The poisoned person must use all his spiritual power to suppress the fire poison, which is almost equivalent to losing combat effectiveness.
The psychic shield of a top warlock can directly resist the fragments produced by the explosion, but without setting up the psychic shield in advance, a person hit by the shell fragments still needs to spend a lot of psychic energy and time to force the fire poison out of the body.
Before the Shen army launched anti-artillery nets, more than thirty fire-poison bombs exploded on the ground. Due to the small caliber of the artillery shells, the explosion could only affect a radius of more than ten meters, and more than half of the fragments produced by the explosion were
All were absorbed by the ground.
But after the Shen State troops began to launch anti-artillery nets, the situation was different. Half of the more than 60 fire poison bombs fired from behind by the Hai State sneak attack troops were successfully intercepted by the anti-artillery nets and exploded in the air. They exploded in the air.
All the fragments produced by the subsequent fire-poison bombs fell into the military camp and were distributed over a wider area. Judging from the effect, the interception of the anti-artillery net more than doubled the power of the fire-poison bombs.
By the time Delong Boyard realized this problem and wanted to order to stop firing the anti-artillery net, it was already too late. By this time, Hai's sneak attack team had already fired all the fire and poison bombs they had brought and began to retreat.
Thanks to the "help" of the anti-artillery net launched by the Shen State troops, one hundred fire poison bombs actually had the effect of almost two hundred artillery shells. This shocked Jing He, who was observing from the air and evaluating the effectiveness of the fire poison bombs.
Endless.
The three-minute bombardment caused heavy losses to Delonboyad. According to post-war statistics, nearly 3,000 medium and low-level warlocks died directly from poisoning, and more than 1,000 mid-level warlocks cut off their own hands and feet to save their lives.
, there are also two to three hundred senior warlocks who have temporarily lost their combat effectiveness due to poisoning. In addition, in order to eliminate the sneak attack troops of Hai State, hundreds of heavy infantrymen were killed or injured by forcibly breaking through the frontline spell traps. In just a few minutes, the Shen State Army
Inside, the losses exceeded 5,000 people. However, the Hai army that came to attack suffered zero casualties.
In the Chinese army tent, Delon Boyard was furious after receiving the battle damage report. He shouted hysterically, "Can any of you tell me what kind of artillery shells the people of Hai used? It's just a hundred small-caliber artillery shells."
French artillery shells actually caused the loss of more than 5,000 soldiers of our country."
Zhou Wen, Delong Boyade's military advisor and a guest of the Boyade family, said tremblingly, "I have carefully observed the fragments produced by these magic shells, and I feel that they are very similar to obsidian from the center of the earth."
Delonboyade interrupted rudely and said, "Shit, you think I have never seen this dark obsidian in the center of the earth. Isn't it produced thousands of meters deep under the volcanic magma? It is a kind of fire-based spirit."
Is it a stone? I know that the fire psychic energy in this stone contains a lot of fire poison, but this fire poison is not so overbearing that even an intermediate warlock can't resist it."
Zhou Wen whispered, "Simple Earth Core Dark Obsidian does not have such overbearing fire poison. I found traces of another type of ore in the sea from the shell fragments, but I couldn't identify what this type of ore is specifically."
Delonboyad shouted, "Organize all the fire and poison high-level warlocks, and use the fastest speed to analyze for me what ingredients are added to the shells of this spell."
Half an hour later, Zhou Wen returned to the central military tent with several masters of fire and poison spells, and said to Delong Boyard, "General, after analysis, we believe that the mineral components added to this spell's shells are very large.
It could be Youlian Stone."
Delonboyade looked confused, "What the hell is Youlian Stone?"
Zhou Wendao said, "Youlian Stone is a relatively rare ore. Its biggest function is to increase the power of poison-type magic weapons. A conservative estimate is that it can increase the toxicity by three to five times."
Delong Boyade said puzzledly, "So, this Youlian Stone should be a good thing, but why have I never heard of this kind of stone?"
Zhou Wen said, "Youlian Stone is not common, and it is only produced in the desert of Chou Country. The reserves in Guidu County account for more than 95%. In addition, the poison magic weapons with Youlian Stone added
It’s extremely unstable and can easily injure one’s own people, so not many people pay attention to this thing.”
Delong Boyade frowned and said, "Chou Country Ghost Capital County, why does this place name sound so familiar?"
Zhou Wendao said, "General, you won't forget that the vast ancient city is located in this ghost capital county. This is the fiefdom of Princess Molan of the Wei Kingdom. This Princess Molan calls herself Mi Chong. She is not only the princess of the Wei Kingdom, but also the princess of the Chen Dynasty.
The princess of the Heyin Kingdom. When Her Majesty the Queen ascended the throne, this person came to congratulate her on behalf of the Chen Kingdom. I wonder if the general paid attention to her."
Delonboyade suddenly realized, "I remembered this, is this rice insect the woman who gave the Queen a castle in the air during the Queen's coronation ceremony?"
Zhou Wen nodded and said, "It is this person. According to the intelligence, as soon as she arrived in Guidu County, she blocked all the Youlian stone mines and only allowed her direct subordinates to mine. More than 90% of the Youlian stones mined were sent to Chen Kingdom.
, the remaining few parts are in Wei State. In addition, Chen State has a super genius in magic weapons, Jing Wusong, he may have a way to solve the instability phenomenon of Youlian Stone mixed with toxins."
Delong Boyade punched the table and said in a hateful voice, "What on earth is Chen State going to do? First it blocks the East China Sea Strait in the name of an exercise, and then it sends such advanced artillery shells to Hai State. I even doubt that the people who appeared before
The ultra-long-range coastal defense guns at Zitong Port and Sanxing Port also belong to the Chen Kingdom. Isn’t the Emperor of the Chen Kingdom afraid that Her Majesty the Queen will fall out with him?"
Zhou Wen smiled bitterly and said, "He (Ye Chenchen) is really not afraid. Maybe he is suffering from having no excuse to start a war with us?"
Delong Boyade rubbed his aching head and said, "Okay, let's not talk about this for now. It's almost dawn now. Let's discuss how to attack Changle Dam next."
Zhou Wen shook his head and said, "Now the enemy situation has undergone major changes. We can no longer attack rashly. If there are a large number of artillery shells of this kind stored in Changle Dam, we may not even be able to reach the city wall of Changle Dam, and we will suffer heavy casualties."
General, please think twice about attacking."
Delonboyade shook his head and said, "No, the attack must proceed as usual. We cannot be frightened just because the enemy has one or two powerful weapons. Besides, I have ordered the three armies to attack at the same time. I am even more frightened."
It’s impossible to back down from the battle.”
Zhou Wen dissuaded, "Our top priority is to find out the source of the new batch of artillery shells by the Changleba defenders, and whether they still have such shells, and how many they have. Attacking without understanding these issues is tantamount to committing suicide. As for the three
The order for Lu Dajun to attack at the same time is easy to explain. The Changleba defenders have deployed a single amount of magic traps on the outside. Clearing these traps is also an attack. Besides, we do need to clear these magic traps and rearrange them.
To set up our own magic trap, we must advance at least five kilometers away from the camp, so as not to give the Changleba defenders a chance to sneak attack us again."
Delonboyade said stubbornly, "When these problems are figured out, the day lily will be cold. I don't believe they can have many such artillery shells. As long as we charge fast enough, their artillery shells will not have much effect."
Zhou Wen saw that Delong Boyade's temper was about to get worse, so he quickly approached him and whispered, "General, don't forget the master's order."
Delonboyade, who was originally high-spirited, was awakened by a basin of cold water poured by Zhou Wen, and said dejectedly, "Okay, I will listen to your husband and not launch a real attack for the time being. I will ask your husband to arrange the rest. I am a little tired."
Now, I’m going to take a rest.”
