Chapter 1596 Squinting to turn the tide
It was indeed as Lu Xi imagined, and he had actually considered the worst plan early. So, when the flying knights of the Sky Rose descended above the Daroshul Fortress, when the sky-surge flames rose from the port area and warehouse, everyone else fell into a panic debuff, but the most highly anticipated young general of the nobles' contemporary period did show qualities that match his reputation. He was extremely calm and quickly issued a command to deal with it.
"Among the remaining reserve teams, two hundred-man teams were allocated to reinforce the Red Star Fort and the White Moon Tower, establish a defense line nearby, and the combat mage group there would be lifting the arcane suppression of Dongwang Fort and devote all their energy to ensuring their own defense."
Both of these are very important fortresses in the fortress, and both come with magic towers with bonus spell effects. Each of them is an elite combat mage of five people. They can use the bonus effect of the magic tower to carry out long-distance arcane bombardment on the entire fortress range, especially enemies in the direction of the port area. Similarly, the magic tower can be used as the core of the magic array to open a large-scale defensive barrier. In addition, their geographical location is also very important, just stuck between the city and the port area. As long as they are not lost, they can support each other and become outpost positions in the military camp area controlled by them.
"Let the soldiers in the city start to evacuate to the Municipal Square and join forces stationed in the city's central city hall and the Academy. By the way, we have already carried the magic crystal cannon to the roof, right? Are you sure? Very good, let's use the Municipal Hall and the Academy as the fulcrum to establish a line of defense in the Municipal Square."
The Academy and the City Hall are the tallest buildings in the city of Daroshul. A day ago, Mimiyan ordered three magic crystal cannons to be moved out of the fleet and placed on the roof. His subordinates were originally unclear about his order, so they thought that this noble young man with a squint was just a tossing man, but now they understand how far-sighted he is.
Unexpectedly, he expected to lose first. Mimiyan is a pessimist who does things without any leakage. Of course, this is not born, but he developed this temperament after he was almost beaten and killed by someone on the spot.
He added: "Tell Lieutenant Colonel White and Major Bruce that you can consider using private houses as a base to stabilize the defense line. What, the citizens inside? Oh, this is someone's property, it's fine to collect it, but it would be too unkind to drive them out. Let the poor citizens stay in their homes, and persuade them with kind words, and never drive them away!"
To put it bluntly, this is treating ordinary citizens as shields. However, this kind of thing is not a big news even in the 21st century in Lu Xi Lanxing's hometown, and it is even less important in this era. Whether it is a civil war or a foreign war, the safety of ordinary civilians has never been a priority issue that military officials will pay attention to.
"I'm still besieging the troops of Dongwang Fort? Woo... I'll ask them to break through on their own. I don't have the strength to reinforce them here. In addition, there is no need to force the troops in the reinforcement of the warehouse area, so they can rush to the nearby fortress fortification nearby."
To be fair, this order is actually quite correct. Because the troops besieged Dongwang Fort were bombed by the air cavalry at the first time and were taken away by the rear. It is impossible to save them if they want to save them, and even if they are rescued, they will definitely not be worth the effort. No matter how approachable and loving soldiers are, they will never really have any so-called friendship with ordinary soldiers. Of course, it is impossible to make another choice.
In this way, the two thousand people surrounded Dongwang Fort, which was equivalent to being abandoned, but they objectively could definitely play a role in cutting off the rear.
"As for the port, are you still fighting?"
"The battle situation is not very favorable. Colonel Dayi has used magic crystal cannons to counterattack the enemy's shelling positions, but there is almost no result in the battle." Afu replied with a frown.
As for things like magic crystal cannons, of course, their power is not low. Of course, their power mainly depends on the purity and size of the natural energy-concentrating crystal. Therefore, if the energy-producing at least the main gun on the cruiser is completely beyond the small cannons brought by the air cavalry with the pack beasts. But the problem is that their range and hit power, especially the hit power in the cross-fire world, are really a bit unsatisfactory. Therefore, in such artillery battles, they were at a disadvantage.
"A cruiser and a frigate have completely lost their ability to take off." Afu said: "However, Colonel Say has set up flame crossbows on the lighthouse and several high positions. The two hundred giant shield crossbowmen under his command have also been on the roof. The enemy's aerospace cavalry cannot get close to it immediately for a while."
As the admiral of the Chenhai Fleet, Mimiyan would certainly not ignore his most important warships. In fact, the most elite sailors in the fleet were always on standby in the port, and Colonel Dayi, who led the team, was also a confidant general. They did not expect that attackers would quickly occupy the commanding heights and pull the entire port area into the attack range of the guided cannon. However, after a brief panic, their performance was the best among the defenders.
You should know that in addition to the sailors, there are two very capable mercenary troops in the port, namely a 300-person giant shield crossbowman brigade and a 150-person shield and a 150-person shield and axe soldier. They are all well-known mercenary teams that all countries have good reputations.
Anyway, in the feudal era, is it common sense to fight mercenaries than the state's standing army? As long as you find the pope to cheat enough money... no, in short, as long as you have money, you can rely on mercenaries to be invincible and unify the continent.
So, the giant shield crossbowmen went to the roof, while the shield axemen set up obstacles on several major traffic roads leading to the port area. For a moment, they actually temporarily stabilized the situation of the battle.
However, under the suppression of the guide cannon and the charge of the air knights, they actually couldn't last long.
"Let the sailors get on the boat and drive away all the moving boats. The remaining ones that are not enough will be taken away, and all their Tisru Nuclear will be detonated."
"All ships? Including transport ships." Hearing this, Ah Fu looked up and couldn't help but ask again.
"All I said is of course everything in the literal sense!" He didn't even look at the other person and said coldly.
I understand what you mean, even if these ships cannot be kept, they cannot fall into the hands of the other party. However, once all the ships are burned, you will have to be trapped on this island yourself!
The old butler thought so in his heart, but he knew very well that his young master always smiled, and spoke calmly and kindly. He could be regarded as a very rare and easy-to-get-to-get-to-get-to-get-to-get-to-get-to-get-to-get-to-get-to-get-to-get-to-get-to-get-to-get-to-get-to-get-to-get-to-get-to-get-to-get-to-get-to-get-to-get-to-get-to-be-to-be-to-be-to-be-to-be-to-be-to-be-to-be-to-be-to-be-to-be-to-be-to-be-to-be-to-be-to-be-to-be-to-be-to-be-to-be-to-be-to-be-to-be-to-be-to-be-to-be-to-be-to-be-to-be-to
After confirming the identity of the attacking party, the order of Dumborai Dandy Lane was quickly conveyed. So, the defenders who were already beaten to the point of running away with a confused look on their faces, as if the naughty kids who had been lost for most of the day finally heard their mother's voice. Although they were still panic, they could finally act subconsciously according to the instructions of the superior. For a moment, the chaotic situation was indeed effectively controlled.
However, Mimiyan himself knew very well that he could do this because he could quickly issue orders to all officers. The reason for this operation was not because he was suddenly possessed by Master Deng Bolai, nor was his subordinates leading the era, and each class was equipped with a radio station or something, nor was he so luxurious that he could give officers a priceless communication crystal.
The principle is of course very simple. He squinted his eyes and prepared fifty bird-shaped demons early on. This is a kind of wind element elves. It has a very simple and clear name called "Shuangfeng Bird". Its size is not much larger than hummingbirds and has no combat power. However, it is extremely fast and has a vigilant mind. There are almost no natural enemies in nature. Of course, their IQ is not as high as a messenger, but their talent is to use the friction of wind element to simulate the information assigned to them by the master. In a sense, this is more useful than those well-trained messengers.
However, the weakness of this kind of thing is also very obvious. First of all, it is too fragile. It is really noticed by the super-sensible caster. It can be destroyed with a single wind blade. Moreover, its blue consumption is also quite high. It is a huge burden for the caster to maintain its existence on the main plane for a long time.
Now, maintaining this large string of swift birds made Mimi-eyed a little difficult. He now urgently needed to return to the barracks, summon all the officers who could still move, and launch all the remaining defenders. As long as he did this, his side still had an absolute advantage in the fortress. Even if the veterans of the thousands of troops in the sixth legion in the mountains came back, he still had the power to fight. At least he could definitely drag it to the main force of the United Fleet who was rushing here to arrive.
But that's it...
"Boom!" Another explosion came from the auditorium not far away, and the floor-to-ceiling windows in the front auditorium were shattered into the ground. Several bodies with fire on their bodies slammed open the main entrance of the auditorium and fell directly on the stairs at the door. Immediately afterwards, more people let out various screams and rushed out of the door, like a flock of scared sheep. Their steps were on the unlucky guys who had hit the stairs at the beginning. The people screamed miserably at the beginning, but soon there was no sound anymore, and they were no longer alive. As the bustling crowds squeezed out from the door, more and more people fell down with garlic, and the scene became more and more chaotic.
When the so-called federal officer encountered a sudden danger, he actually acted like the unarmed civilians. Looking at this absurd scene, his eyes were squinting and laughing and crying for a moment.
"......The officers of the Sixth Corps! I remember two years ago, this was the most elite legion in the Federation. Whose question should be?"
Yes? Whose problem is it? In just two years, a large number of noble playboys and various relationship households have flooded all the important positions in the legion. Those outstanding officers retired, those who changed careers, and many outstanding officers were even dug up by the roses next door.
Therefore, the Eastern Legion, which had a total of more than 30,000 people, protected the eastern border of the Federation for a hundred years, was the iron army on the border with abundant martial ethics. The moment they could fight, there were only five or six thousand veterans left. This was the result of the red lightning struggling to argue. In fact, no one would doubt that if a few more months were given, there would be no remaining veterans.
It takes more than ten years to build an elite soldier with abundant martial ethics. Of course, except for some slaughter, it is impossible to destroy the elite soldier with abundant martial ethics. Two years is really enough.
The old butler Afu looked at his young master with a subtle look, but he remained silent. He understood that his young master was actually clearer than himself in the above.
"Ha, my teammates are all stupid guys, but, born in Dandelion's house, what else can I do except carry these stupid guys to grit my teeth and persevere? Actually, I don't know how much I envy that person."
“…that person?!”
"Yes, envy, jealous, longing, but I can't ask for it, so of course I have to hate it. Otherwise, what else can I do?"
At that moment, Afu saw too many emotions on his young master's face, but in the blink of an eye, he once again recovered the fox smile that was squinting and calmly grasping everything.
"Brother Rudolf is really out of control! He has promised that he will quickly take Miss Moore's if he takes action himself."
"... Then are you going to take action yourself?" Afu asked.
To be honest, in the melee of extraordinary strength, only those with the same level of strength can intervene. And on our side, the only one left is the young master himself.
Dunboree Dandy Lane pondered for a moment, then sneered: "Forget it, since Brother Rudolf has praised Haikou, we will lose face if we go over. Anyway, he is also a smart person. If the situation is wrong, he will not force it."
"let's go."
Miliated his eyes and left the terrace and led his confidants to the military camp. There were six or seven thousand soldiers stationed there, and now they should have been awakened by the sound of killing and explosions. Even though these were a group of rookie recruits who had never seen blood, as long as they could be rectified and driven to the battlefield, even if they were cannon fodder envoys, they would be a decisive force that could stabilize the situation.
He left with no idea, as if he didn't know at all, Rudolph Gazet, who was in the auditorium, was cursing himself.
"Why is that dead fox with a stomach full of bad water, who is still here to help?"
The deputy commander of the Chenhai Fleet hid behind a huge classical stone pillar in the grand banquet hall, looking at the majestic Miss Sehiliu Moore in the middle of the auditorium, and for a moment he felt so heartless.
