Chapter 1013 The battle begins
The battle with the Scourge was first launched by the military rocket launcher regiment.
The Xiangliu rocket launcher can fire nine rockets at a time, which is not many, but it is quite powerful.
The rocket shells, which were more than three meters long, rushed out of the launch frame with a sound, and then crossed more than ten kilometers to accurately land in the psychic tower group. The sharp spirit-breaking cone can penetrate most conventional defense magic arrays. In addition to high explosives, the warhead weighing 30 kilograms also sealed the psychic plasma containing a small amount of thunder energy.
Each rocket can explode a small blue thunder cloud. If the warhead drills into the psychic tower and explodes, the psychic tower will be directly blown to pieces. Even if there is no direct hit, it can tear open the psychic shield of the psychic tower and open several skylights for it.
A rocket launcher group had three rounds of covered shooting, destroying at least fifty psychic towers and causing more damage. As for the destroyed undead units, it is impossible to count them in detail.
At the same time, 12 fighter jets pierced from high altitudes and dropped 12 high-energy armor-piercing bombs, blowing up the buildings in the core area of the Scourge Legion into a mess.
Such long-range strikes were not even able to fight back, but due to logistical transportation issues, large-scale firepower coverage in the Dragon Bone Wilderness was not possible. Even if the transportation capacity was not mentioned, conventional ammunition could not drive such spiritual buildings. Special ammunition with spirit-breaking effect was quite expensive. The Dragon Xiang Army was reluctant to use rocket launchers to bombard the believers of Galakron.
After the rocket launcher and air strike, the ground forces were promoted. The self-propelled psychic electromagnetic artillery was mounted on a high ground several kilometers away and began to shoot accurately to destroy the remaining psychic towers.
After traveling around Asia, Africa and Europe, Xiang Ningxuan went back to preside over the group's restructuring. He had not fought with the army for a while, and he was not sure what progress the current combat mode of the main force of the Longxiang Army had. Therefore, he sat on the other side of the command table, controlled a drone, and projected the screen on a computer monitor.
With the help of the staff, Saar and Cromi also controlled two other drones to observe the battlefield. This pattern of observing the battlefield without having to come to the scene made the two people who were in contact for the first time very novel, allowing the drone to adjust up, down, left and right.
At this time, changes also occurred on the battlefield.
Tyranus has fought many battles with humans and is very familiar with human routines. He can tolerate the coverage of human ultra-long range firepower because he knows that such an attack seems to be huge, but in fact, in addition to the heavy damage to buildings, it can also tolerate the damage to the army. At the same time, humans consume a lot.
However, the precise point shooting of heavy psychic electromagnetic guns is an attack mode that consumes little and has great damage. Especially the Chinese army will never rush to a strong position. They will set up long-range artillery groups to knock on the defensive positions, and then slowly repair their defense lines to cover the artillery groups to stand forward.
Since you are about to rush sooner or later, it is better to rush forward while the enemy's defense line has not been fully constructed. Even if you can't rush down, you can use the remaining fortifications to cover the retreat.
Just half an hour after the war started, several ground-based bullets exploded more than 500 meters in front of the human position. The earth was like a volcano erupting, spewing out countless soil and gravel, and there were many broken limbs and arms mixed in it.
Just as Tyranus knew the Earthlings, the Dragon Crown Army had even more knowledge of the current Scourge Corps than Tyranus himself. The Southwest Expeditionary Force led by Rong Zheng had been fighting with the Scourge Corps for more than a year, and had seen all kinds of new soldiers and new tactics, and even analyzed the tactical characteristics of some senior commanders of the Scourge Corps. These materials were shared with the Dragon Crown Army.
The Scourge Corps knew that it was difficult to break the defense line of elite humans guarding, and intensive charges were to die, while scattered charges had no power at all. Not to mention that the main force of the Longxiang Army they faced first had combat power far exceeding the regular army of the Tianzhu.
Therefore, the Scourge developed the tunnel tactics, using the crypt demons and specially developed ground-digging undeads to dig the tunnel directly into the human position, so that they could catch them off guard.
When he learned that the main human force was coming, Tyranus knew that there would be a battle sooner or later, so he had already ordered his subordinates to dig up several tunnels in advance and prepare to attack a force when humans were not yet firmly established.
However, he still underestimated the ability of the Dragon Horse Army. Such a submarine attack has long been within the range of the psychic monitoring. As for why it is not defeated in advance, it is just waiting for the Scourge Legion to launch an attack. At a distance of 500 meters, there will be a lot of casualties if it is a strong attack, but it is a pity to give up. It just happened to be stuck at the most embarrassing node of the Scourge Legion.
In the end, Tyranus, the irritated undead Vicu, was unable to suppress his anger and ordered the troops to launch a charge.
A large number of undead crawled out from the ground and launched a desperate charge towards the temporary offensive constructed by humans. Hidden behind the formation, the natural disaster-firing heavy artillery first launched a counterattack, and hundreds of shells quickly landed on the human positions.
Then, the human heavy artillery immediately returned to the color and launched a cover fire at the source of the shells. The artillery fire between the two sides was coming and going, and they were having a lot of fun.
This kind of long-range artillery battle situation is absolutely invisible in Azeroth, and it can only be achieved by the Scourge Corps, which has absorbed a large amount of earth technology. However, their artillery still cannot be compared with the long-range artillery of the Longxiang Army. They were quickly suppressed by firepower and could only hide and then fire cold artillery.
Of course, Tyranus did not expect artillery battles to defeat humans. Artillery fire attacks were just to restrain human artillery and cover undead ambush in the tunnels.
The rumbling explosions kept coming from the undead array. This was not the human beings bombing, but the bombs in the body of the self-destructing ghouls. Taking advantage of the undead's fearlessness, the Scourge Legion installed explosives and plague venom in their bodies and rushed directly into the enemy's crowd to launch a suicide attack.
These self-destructive ghouls are of course the priority targets for long-range firepower to kill.
The storm queues of natural disasters are not all self-destructive ghouls. There are many shield-holding ghouls to cover them. The swift ghouls attack quickly and rush into the human defense line, making it impossible for people to output with peace of mind. The entire offensive level is clear and very organized.
In the sky, the frost dragons, gargoyles, blood bats and other air forces rushed from the low altitude. The gargoyles were responsible for controlling the air, and the real attacks were the frost dragons and blood bats.
The ice breathing ejected from the modified mouthpiece, like a cannonball, with a fast firing rate, a long range and a high power, causing considerable trouble to the human positions.
What is even more ferocious is the suicide attack of blood bats. They can not only hit air units, but also ground units, but ground units are cheap and strong, and it is not cost-effective to hit them normally.
At this moment, in order to cover the army's charge, the Scourge Corps also invested a lot and used blood bats to directly pounce on the Longxiong Army's long-range artillery group.
Countless anti-aircraft firepower on the ground sprinkled into the air from human positions. Surface-to-air missiles, anti-aircraft cannons, electromagnetic machine guns, laser cannons, and various group attack spells turned into meat grinder-like dead land in the low-altitude airspace between the natural disaster positions and the Longxiang Army positions.
The blood bats with weak defenses were constantly being exploded, and dirty blood, venom, and minced meat kept falling from the air, and explosives were detonated from time to time.
The Scourge Air Force had to let the stronger defense gargoyles come to the periphery to block the guns for the blood bats.
Taking advantage of the gargoyle's departure, the human combat power that had been hovering at high altitude launched a dive attack to hunt down the frost dragon.
Sizzle! A blue arc spread a large net in the air of the artillery position to intercept the leaking blood bats.
