Chapter 415: 413: Red Baron (Subscribe)
This is a strategic location where the Bonaparte Empire built solid and continuous military buildings.
Countless trenches were dug on the rolling hills, winding and connected together, and bunkers like cages were built at regular intervals.
The coalition forces will also learn. This method was obviously learned from the Empire. After they tried it, they found it very useful and greatly reduced casualties!
The ones stationed here are either archers.
The Bonaparte Empire still retained a team of archers, whose lethality was actually quite strong, but their attack range was limited.
Or place a magic cannon!
There are certainly no most advanced ones, but there is no shortage of ordinary third-generation cannons, many of which are unloaded from ships.
Although they are troublesome to reload and slow to load, you cannot deny that they are quite powerful.
After a shot is fired, the fragments after the explosion can still sweep across an area of ten meters in radius, causing huge damage.
Imperial soldiers are also ordinary people, they will die if they are hit by this!
Of course, there is also a group of magic apprentices who have just been transferred up. They are equipped with magic rifles. Although their accuracy still needs to be improved, as long as the bullets are fired, they can have a deterrent effect!
It was also here that the two imperial divisions fought and charged fiercely many times, using heavy machine guns and grenades, but still failed to capture the position.
After they reported the situation, they received instructions.
——Wait, then, fight back!
Waiting for what?
The order didn’t make it clear, but it didn’t need to be made clear.
Because, before these soldiers had to wait long, a buzzing sound came from the sky.
Dozens of black spots were approaching rapidly from far away. They were the empire's flying corps, coming aggressively.
Almost all of them were loaded with bombs, and they flew over the enemy positions and dropped the bombs directly.
One bomb after another drew an arc and landed on the ground, causing a huge explosion of smoke and roar.
Earth and rocks were flying everywhere, and the air was filled with smoke. Some of the coalition soldiers who failed to dodge in time felt a buzzing in their heads, could no longer maintain their balance, and stumbled out.
If they reveal themselves, they will die faster.
Some were directly shocked unconscious, with blood coming out of all their orifices, looking extremely miserable.
Of course, most of the soldiers were still quite alert. They quickly ran to hide under the bunkers, allowing the vibrations and dust to rustle, and they dared not move.
However, the coalition forces reacted very quickly, and soon there was a "roar" sound.
Two-legged flying dragons with a wingspan of more than ten meters came sweeping in with fierce gale.
On top of the flying dragon, the knights had already raised their dragon spears high, and many of them even had colorful fighting spirit rising up, with bloodshot eyes.
The Empire also discovered it early. They immediately dropped all the bombs, climbed, turned, aimed at the Wyvern Legion, and began to charge.
The flexibility of magic energy aircraft is relatively poor, but the pilots have also summed up a lot of air combat experience in recent days.
They formed a triangle attack formation with three aircraft, one in front and a wingman on each side.
Then, each group was assigned a wyvern, which held on tightly, and the six-barreled Gatling guns poured out dense bullets.
These two-legged dragons scattered in an instant, some flew up, some flew down, and some circled, showing amazing flexibility and dodging quickly.
Their claws are sharp enough to tear apart the fuselage of a magical aircraft, their bites can destroy the tail fins, and their breath can corrode steel.
That's not all, not to mention the powerful knights on their bodies, each of whom has the means to attack from medium and long distances.
But the problem is, as long as they get close to one aircraft and start attacking, the other two will fight back desperately.
Yes, regardless of the consequences!
Even if the bullets will tear the magic aircraft into pieces, it will not matter.
Even because of the simultaneous detonation of the aircraft, it can cause considerable damage to the wyvern.
This is the method concluded by the Imperial Military: one life for another!
It sounds tragic, but this is the most useful method. It effectively makes up for the performance deficiencies of the first generation of aircraft. At the same time, it is also the way with the least loss of pilots.
Moreover, wyverns are so rare that it takes years just to raise them, and training dragon knights is even more difficult.
In comparison, the value of aircraft and pilots is greatly reduced.
One for one, the coalition forces obviously suffered a great loss!
They used the sky as their battlefield, chasing, shooting, fighting, and tangling.
From time to time, there were wailing, roaring, explosions, and roars, resounding through the heavens and the earth.
On the earth, warriors from all sides tried their best to hide themselves, for fear of suffering unexpected disasters.
But through the gaps, they were also staring at the sky, watching the battle between the monsters and the aircraft, their eyes full of fear.
Seeing that the wyvern was at a disadvantage and was being chased everywhere, and was about to be defeated, another roar was heard.
Like a lion's roar and an eagle's cry, the cry is extremely unique!
Then, from the higher sky, a bird of prey with an eagle's head and a lion's body swooped down.
They stir up strong winds with their wings, or spit out wind blades from their mouths. Although the killing power is not enough to destroy the steel body,
But the turbulent airflow destroyed the flying posture of the aircraft, and they were shaking and about to fall.
What was even more surprising was that these griffins were carrying two people, one of whom was a griffin knight, and the other was holding magical guns.
While trying to keep their bodies steady, they raised their magic rifles and fired long-range shots.
It has to be said that the arrival of these griffin knights was too sudden and caught the Imperial Flying Corps off guard.
In addition, the griffin's use of wind magic caused huge damage to the flying legion.
Then, one aircraft after another staggered and fell to the ground, but some were able to take off again at the last moment.
But these are ultimately a minority.
Most of it crashed to the ground, turning into a fireball, sending smoke and flames soaring into the sky.
However, just when the Imperial Flying Corps was about to be destroyed, another aircraft approached rapidly.
Yes, there was only one, but it charged into the battlefield without fear!
It is different from ordinary magical aircraft. It is painted entirely red, a bright red color, like a ball of flame.
It was like lightning, moving in an S-shaped snake-skin pattern, cutting past several griffins and dragons.
Then, the monster that was wreaking havoc just now split into two halves and fell to the ground in blood.
But this is just its debut performance, a good start, but not all.
It demonstrated agility and controllability far beyond that of ordinary aircraft. The bullets were no longer a meaningless pouring, but more like precise point shooting.
He shuttled among the enemies like a ghost. Even a real third-level extraordinary strong man released his fighting spirit and surrounded and killed him, but he still managed to dodge it.
However, the air-blast bomb thrown out with the backhand caused several third-level transcendents to suffer.
That’s right, compared to aircraft, the wings transformed from the fighting spirit of a third-level extraordinary powerhouse are both flexible and have smaller targets.
But you can't withstand his indiscriminate range attack!
Just this one red aircraft managed to defeat the Wyvern Knight and the Griffin Knight, forcing them to flee wailing.
Finally, another group of flying legions slowly arrived, escorting a huge airship that seemed to occupy half the sky.
That was a Zeppelin airship secretly developed by the Empire.
Its biggest function is to carry loads and airdrop...
Then everyone saw that one incendiary bomb after another fell on the coalition positions.
Then, the mountaintop caught fire, and the flames were like a fire demon coming from the abyss, waving a whip and roaring wantonly.
As for the coalition soldiers in the position, except for a few who escaped with fighting spirit or magic shields, all the others were burned to death.
The last shot was the Zeppelin slowly departing, and the last thing left was the red aircraft, as red as fire and blood!
Red Dragon Virgil said, "This little guy is pretty good. What's his name?"
"Richthofen, Manfred von Richthofen, the 'Red Baron', Habsburg Imperial ace pilot."
Luo Yi said, “His aircraft is specially made, and he himself possesses the magic power of a third-level extraordinary fighting spirit and a first-level formal mage.
His flying machine is like a knight's armor, activated by fighting spirit and controlled by magic power. You have seen the power it exerts."
"He's also an aerial hero feared by both the Empire and the Alliance. By the way, the nickname Red Baron was given to him by his enemies."
Red Dragon Virgil said, "You know him quite well, don't you?"
Luo Yi chuckled: "It can't be helped. Whether it's the Empire or the Alliance, there's so much information about this person that it's almost exaggerated."
Having said this, Luo Yi did not stop his actions. He input magic power and saw the magic mirror flashing. In an instant, it split into eight parts.
After Luo Yi made his selection, one of them quickly enlarged and filled the entire mirror.
This time, on another battlefield, the coalition forces brought out one of their trump cards: the Extraordinary War Elephant Legion.
This huge monster is over 30 meters tall, with each leg as thick as a stone pillar. Just taking a step forward can cause small-scale earthquake aftermath.
The roars they make have the power to shock people mentally, making them dizzy and fall to the ground.
The only magic they know is the earth and stone shield, which allows them to continuously pile up hardened soil on their bodies to resist various attacks.
Even a magic cannon with a smaller caliber is just like a tickle.
Above the war elephants, there are powerful and extraordinary peak knights.
The only thing they have to do is to use their fighting spirit to smash all threatening attacks.
Crescent-shaped slashes streaked across the sky, and the shells exploded in mid-air. The remaining shock waves and fragments posed no threat to the war elephants.
It was with the help of ten war elephants that the allied forces continued to advance.
They crossed the trench and charged directly into the artillery camp, crushing countless cannons and killing countless soldiers.
The knights following behind seemed more like they were cleaning up the battlefield.
Luo Yi changed the channel again, and this time, a terrifying earthworm monster broke out of the ground.
The sharp beak of the knife, like a meat grinder, swept around and cleared an area.
After it retreated, coalition soldiers rushed out.
However, although the Imperial Legion was caught off guard, they also took out magical weapons that made Loy's eyes light up.
It was a dark gun barrel as thick as an adult's forearm. After the magic pattern was lit up, a cannonball, trailing a flame, rushed out and exploded in the crowd.
In an instant, countless people were killed and injured!
This is a shoulder-fired rocket launcher!
Second update!
