In fact, the Tang Army's attack speed was faster than the elf troops' judgment. When the Tang Army penetrated the first line of defense, the Tang Army's attack aircraft had already begun to clear the coalition's second line of defense.
The weather in April is no longer so cold, but you can still feel the coolness when the wind hits your face. This temperature is really suitable for fighting. There is no need to wear heavy winter clothes, and the body will not stink immediately.
The coalition artillerymen, who had just prepared for battle and aimed their artillery at the first-line defensive position, preparing to cause some trouble to the Tang army occupying there, immediately realized that their situation might be very dangerous.
The anti-aircraft guns fired a series of tracer bullets into the sky, but these shells were still far away from those terrifying thunder and lightning attack aircraft.
The Tang Army's aircraft did not swoop down in a hurry, but began to use photoelectrically guided air-to-surface missiles to call out the anti-aircraft gun positions that had been exposed one by one.
With the explosions one after another, the anti-aircraft gun positions that were noisy just now returned to silence one by one. Parts of the anti-aircraft guns and the gunner's stumps and broken arms were scattered next to the still smoking craters. The Elf artillery positions were immediately lost.
The only defense.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Stop them!" The officer on the position pointed at the thunder attack aircraft in the distance and shouted hysterically, but the panicked men passing by him had no way to deal with those who were hovering like vultures.
The Tang Army attack planes were above them.
In fact, these attacks are just appetizers. Elf officers who are familiar with the attack methods of the Tang Empire all know that these thunder and lightning attack aircraft in front of them are just here to kick in the door.
Once these attack aircraft eliminate the anti-aircraft artillery on the ground, the more difficult Tang Army armed helicopters will appear.
Those damn things are even more difficult. They will hover over the battlefield, provide fire support at close range, and destroy any living targets that are discovered. They are more terrifying than the God of Death.
In order to deal with such tactics, the air defense forces on the Elf side also have their own tragic method: they will hide some anti-aircraft guns and expose them to the opponent bit by bit, so as to delay the Tang army's investment in armed helicopters and gain more opportunities for the ground forces.
It's a pity that such a tragic sacrifice only delays some time. The exposed anti-aircraft gun positions will be quickly eliminated. After all, they are no different from targets. They have no power to fight back against the Tang army's missiles.
The breathless elf soldiers who were bullied by the planes in the sky muttered angrily: "Damn it, where is our air force?"
"Are you still thinking about this? They don't dare to take off at all...Those cowards can't do anything." Another elf soldier yelled, scolding the friendly troops who had lost air supremacy.
What the soldiers on the ground didn't know was that in order to compete for air supremacy, the Elf Air Force bravely took off 15 aircraft to join the battle. However, these planes were shot down by the Tang Empire's air force just as they entered the war zone.
Several airports built by the elves close to the war zone have been destroyed by missiles launched by the invaders' attack aircraft.
Nowadays, the runways of those airports are full of craters. Cluster bombs are really convenient for dealing with airports. It is estimated that it will take at least ten days to repair these airports.
Most of the hundreds of aircraft assembled on the front line were killed by cluster bombs. Those bombs would penetrate the roof of the hangar and leave countless bullet holes in the fuselage of the aircraft, making it impossible for these aircraft to take off again.
.
Just as the Thunder attack aircraft circled around and came back, a concealed anti-aircraft gun position opened fire. Although they knew that there was no way to shoot down the Thunder, they still bravely carried out the order to fire.
A row of tracer bullets shot into the sky, leaving a path that well exposed the location of the anti-aircraft gun position.
The Thunder attack aircraft responsible for covering adjusted its nose and fired several rockets at the anti-aircraft gun position.
Four streaks of white smoke rushed toward the anti-aircraft gun position that was still firing, and then four explosions engulfed the place. In an instant, the tracer bullets stopped rising, and the anti-aircraft gun that was roaring just now became silent in an instant.
As time passed by, the atmosphere became more and more solemn, and everyone's nerves were tense to the extreme, as if a string could break at any time.
The position was burning and exploding everywhere, and the ground troops of the Tang Army were still nearly a kilometer away. Those carefully arranged crossfires had turned into ruins without having any effect.
And those artillery pieces, large and small, were blown up into a pile of scrap metal before they could cause trouble to the troops of the Tang Empire.
"Two more are coming!" At this moment, the elf lookout who had been holding the telescope suddenly shouted loudly, his tone full of fear and despair.
Everyone followed his gaze and saw two black spots in the distant sky swooping towards their position at an alarming speed. The deafening roar of the engine came from far to near, like the roar from hell.
, which makes people shudder.
"What? Four? Those damn Tang people!" An experienced elf veteran turned pale and exclaimed. How could he be worthy of sending four Thunderbolts?
Thunder attack aircraft are famous on the earth for their powerful firepower and solid armor, and are a nightmare for ground troops. The emergence of these two new thunder attack aircraft has undoubtedly cast a thick layer on the already precarious Elf defense line.
shadow.
It was already very difficult to deal with two planes originally, but now there are two more planes. For the elf troops on the ground, this is nothing short of a nightmare.
"Stop being stunned! Hit me hard!" On the anti-aircraft gun position, an elf commander shouted to his men. While shouting, he pulled off the camouflage net above his head. He was responsible for commanding a gun
The single-barreled 40mm anti-aircraft gun aimed at one of the Thunder attack aircraft at the fastest speed.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Boom! Boom! Boom!" The anti-aircraft gun suddenly opened fire, and the dense rain of bullets intertwined into a web of death, trying to shoot down the Thunder attack aircraft it was aiming at. This anti-aircraft gun
He emptied his own magazine as quickly as possible, and then the loaders rushed forward, removed the empty magazine, and loaded a new one.
But before the anti-aircraft gun could fire again, a rocket hit the area accurately. The storm formed by the shrapnel instantly penetrated everyone's body, and instantly a blood mist rose over the entire position.
The loaders who were busy just now staggered around, and several gunners who controlled the artillery were also hung up on the artillery and there was no movement anymore.
Air-to-air weapons fired simultaneously, and the dense rain of bullets intertwined into a web of death, trying to intercept the two A-10 attack aircraft outside the base.
However, the pilots of these two A-10s were obviously experienced ace pilots. They relied on their superb flying skills and familiarity with the terrain to skillfully avoid artillery fire from the ground, constantly changing their flying postures, and looking for the target.
The best angle of attack.
"Click, click, click, click!" The 30mm Gatling cannon under the A-10's nose opened fire first, spitting out angry flames. The shells poured down like raindrops, accurately hitting the defenses outside the base.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!" The violent explosions of rockets sounded one after another, and the defense fortifications were blown to pieces. Fires shot into the sky, thick smoke billowed, and screams came one after another. Shocking holes were torn open in the originally solid defense line in an instant.
.
"Damn it! Their firepower is too fierce! Our defenses are simply vulnerable!" Looking at our crumbling defense line, an elf officer in the headquarters lamented, his voice full of fear and powerlessness, a sense of
The breath of despair is spreading silently.
"The Tang army destroyed my artillery position..."
"Don't panic! Reinforcements are already on the way! Hasn't the Tang Army not attacked your position yet? Why panic! Be careful, I will shoot you!" In the headquarters of the second line of defense, the Elf division commander roared loudly, and then died angrily.
The phone. Compared with the deafening sound of gunfire and explosions in the distance, his voice seemed so insignificant.
The four thunder and lightning attack aircraft were like four birds of prey from hell, harvesting the lives of soldiers on the ground wantonly. The fortifications on the Elf defense line were destroyed one after another, and the carefully built small ring-shaped fortress nearby had not yet waited for the soldiers on the ground.
The enemy had been blown beyond recognition and plunged into a sea of fire and chaos.
"Hello? Hello! Division Headquarters? Division Headquarters! If you hear that, please answer! We...our artillery positions have suffered heavy losses! Heavy losses! Please...please support! Please..." Not far away, the staff officer was holding another phone.
, the voice of the communications soldier came intermittently from the unhung receiver, mixed with violent explosions and desperate shouts.
However, before he finished speaking, the communication stopped abruptly, leaving only a creepy busy tone. The division staff officer hung up the phone helplessly and shook his head at the livid-faced division commander.
Everyone knows that the artillery position that has been cared for is finished, and then they will face a fierce attack by the Tang Army's ground troops...
Behind, there was a snowflake on the screen of the coalition's early warning radar, and the Tang Empire's electronic jamming aircraft began to move out again. Both radars were new, using technology introduced from Dorne and mass-produced in the Elf Empire.
However, they still seemed so powerless when facing the electromagnetic interference of the Tang Army: just like those radars in the past, they could not detect anything and were just expensive decorations.
The Elf troops showed a heroic side in the battle. Despite the pressure of being destroyed by anti-radiation missiles, several radars still insisted on turning on, but they still were unable to provide any effective intelligence.
The radio channels are full of interference, and the phone calls can be connected, but because there is too much information to be exchanged, many lines cannot be connected at all.
Flix had no idea what was happening on the front line. Although he knew that the battle had begun, he knew nothing about the details.
For more than an hour, he anxiously waited for news in his headquarters, but what he waited for was bad news one after another. On the one hand, all 15 aircraft that the coalition took off at risk were shot down, and the pilots were killed.
Out of 12, 3 parachuted successfully.
On the other hand, the Tang Army had already broken through one line of defense, and the second line of defense was in danger. Compared with the Tang Army's attack speed, the reinforcements were simply standing still.
The third problem is that the Tang Army's aircraft attacked a large number of supply depots and command nodes. These important facilities were paralyzed, which directly reduced the combat effectiveness of the coalition forces. The frontline troops who lost their supplies could not hold their positions at all.
The Tang Army dispatched at least 150 aircraft of various types and launched a fierce attack on the deep areas of the coalition forces. Now the coalition's western defense line is passive everywhere, and there are already signs of collapse across the board.
Under such circumstances, if Flix didn't do something, everything would be over. But under such intense interference, it is obviously not that easy to reinforce the front line.
Flix suddenly changed the direction of his pacing and walked to the front of the map. He stared at the breached area in silence for a few seconds. Then he turned back and ordered the adjutant waiting at the door: "Make another call.
Let the reinforcements rush to the third line of defense no matter what!"
"Yes! Marshal!" The adjutant quickly stood up and saluted, turned around and walked out of Flicks' office. Flicks waited until the door closed before walking back to the desk and grabbing the phone on the table: "Hello? I'm Flicks.
Si, pick up Ruslaner!"
"Your Majesty? I am Flix... My previous judgment is correct. The Tang Army's main attack direction is indeed northwest, so I beg you... what? What did you say?" Halfway through the words, Flix's brows furrowed.
He got up. Apparently what the person on the other end said caught him off guard.
"Let me tell you! The Tang Army has also launched a large-scale attack in the north! Marshal Flix! Now the defense line in the north is also collapsing. I can't leave the reserve to your command!" Yang Mu I's tone was full of worry.
From this far away, Flix could hear it.
"But, but your Majesty..." Flix still couldn't believe that the Tang army was launching large-scale attacks in two different directions at the same time.
"There is nothing to worry about... The Tang Army is attacking across the entire front! Not just in the northeast, but across the entire front! All along the front!" Yang Mu I once again interrupted Flix's words, and his speaking speed also increased a lot.
"You must hold your position! At all costs!" Before hanging up the phone, Yangmu I gave Flix the most severe order: "If the border defense line is lost, the Yangmu Empire will be over!"
"I will hold my position until the end, Your Majesty. I promise you." Flix glanced at the armed belt hanging on the hanger at the door, looked at the small automatic pistol on it, and assured the other party on the phone.
