Chapter 1289: Free? Great Victory at Honghua Port!
Continuous flames lit up along the river bank, like angry dragons dancing wildly.
Each explosion was accompanied by a blatant shock wave. Even if the target was not the survivors who rushed to the dock, the aftermath would still blow these people away.
Amid the explosion, the wooden piles and planks of the temporary dock were blown to pieces, turning into a mess.
The flames jumped on the ruins, reflecting the surrounding river water red.
Especially the smell of burnt and gunpowder in the air, which stimulated everyone to have difficulty breathing.
"Enemy attack, enemy attack!"
"The aliens are coming, the dwarves are coming, run away, run to the shelter!"
"Make way, don't worry, don't step on me, you fucking"
"Go along the safe evacuation passage, don't run around, be careful of the enemy attacking from the flank."
""
The entire dock was full of fire.
The scorching heat and thick smoke were ignited. The first group of residents who came to watch the ceremony were frightened by the sudden change and fled in all directions, their faces full of fear and helplessness.
However, for the residents who were still coming in succession and thought that the sound just now was used to welcome the Tianyuan fleet, these people were still excitedly squeezed over, talking happily, looking forward to seeing the style of the Tianyuan fleet.
The two parties rushed together from the left and the right, which immediately caused greater chaos.
The terrifying stampede began to occur, and the casualties caused by the explosion were less than one-tenth of the current situation.
Fortunately, a smart person finally stood up in the chaos and took control of the situation loudly:
"Why are you panicking? Su Shen's fleet is here. What are we afraid of dwarves?"
"Let alone dwarves, even if more aliens come, they will just be sent to eat?"
"Yeah, damn, why didn't you say it earlier?"
"Go back and get weapons. We have to help the fleet fight off these damn aliens."
"Oh my god, you are really brave, can I support you with my eyes?"
"Hold on, our escort team is here too. The dwarves are definitely going to hit the wall."
"Hahahaha, why don't they come earlier or later? They actually took advantage of this time to launch a sneak attack. Are these guys crazy?"
""
Although the Red Flower Gang has been doing its best to guard against the dwarfs' counterattack recently, and has been making a lot of propaganda to cultivate the correct response measures for ordinary residents when encountering enemy attacks.
However, when the real crisis comes, most people still have only the instinctive reaction of running away in their minds.
Even many people originally practiced the creed that ‘as long as I run faster than others, I can survive’. Once this idea spreads in panic, the scene will inevitably fall into extreme chaos.
Fortunately, the training that the Red Flower Gang spent a lot of time and energy on was not ineffective. As the subconscious escape reaction was gradually suppressed, the chaotic scene was finally briefly controlled.
On the front battlefield, almost at the same time as the explosion sounded, the alien creatures lurking under the water could no longer hold back and rushed out from the bottom of the water.
"Huso!"
Accompanied by a strange shout, a group of weird green-skinned monsters broke out of the water from under the water.
It turned out that they were not dwarves, but a new alien race.
Frogmen!
As one of the most striking features, frogmen have wide and flat faces, large and round eyes, and flashing green light.
Their noses collapse to both sides, and their mouths are wide and powerful, with sharp teeth that can easily tear prey apart.
Looking down, the frogmen's skin showed a healthy bronze green color, covered with a layer of smooth scales, and their muscles were clearly defined, looking strong and sturdy.
Especially the first batch of frogmen who rushed out of the water, all of them had slender and powerful limbs, wide and thick webbed hands, and every time they kicked the water, they seemed to tear the water surface apart.
"When did the frogmen and dwarves cooperate together?"
The defense team members who rushed out of the dock were stunned, and they were very vigilant about this creature that had been rumored in the world channel for a long time.
As early as in the deep sea, frogmen were an extremely difficult opponent.
They are good at using the night as a cover to quietly land on the islands inhabited by humans, or secretly climb onto the ferry composed of rafts.
Of course, although the frogmen did not directly kill and burn, their behavior was a headache.
These guys would steal a large amount of supplies from the warehouse every time, whether it was food or other necessities, anyway, as long as they were interested in something, they would take it away without mercy.
"Who cares what alien race they are? Anyone who dares to attack is our enemy."
"Shoot them from a distance. These guys are holding dwarf weapons. Be careful."
"Their target is the fleet, the Tianyuan fleet. Are these guys tired of living?"
"Spread out. Don't get affected. The weapons supported by the dwarves are very powerful!"
Frogmen have obvious advantages and disadvantages.
The advantage is that they reproduce very quickly. Often a male and a female frogman can reproduce nearly a hundred frogmen within a few months. This efficient reproduction speed allows the frogman race to expand rapidly in number and quickly occupy a territory.
The disadvantage is that the combat ability is low. It is one of the few alien races that does not know magic.
And the IQ of most people is equivalent to that of human children aged 5-7. The few wise men cannot reach the IQ level of human youth. They are pitifully weak in development ability.
That is why they need to steal supplies from humans or other aliens to meet the survival needs of the tribe.
However, after cooperating with the dwarves to install weapons, this disadvantage was obviously made up for.
Weapons made using special dwarf technology are not only strong and durable, but also contain powerful magical power.
The frogmen holding dwarf weapons only had to wave their weapons without thinking, and magic attacks such as fireballs, water bombs, and wind knives flew out like raindrops, hitting the ship's shell armor hard.
There was a crackling explosion.
Due to the large area of high-strength special alloy used in the armor of the command ship, only some charred and dented marks were left after being attacked at this time.
But the frigate was not so lucky. Under the short-term concentrated magic bombardment, damage began to appear in many places.
The fire was splashing and the smoke was filling the air. It looked like the frogmen were about to gain the absolute upper hand.
But unfortunately, the aliens don't understand what real weapons of war are, nor do they understand why "weak" creatures like humans can stand at the top of the biological chain.
squeak
The vibrating sound of the energy machine's low-frequency explosion sounded at the same time, like a deep war drum, urging the guerrilla boats from behind to rush forward one after another.
"Hit me hard!"
There are eight light and heavy machine guns on a guerrilla boat, which can cover the front sector angle when deployed.
As a cold command blasted into the headset, the firemen on the guerrilla boat suddenly became energetic, their eyes flashed with excitement, and they quickly and skillfully pulled out the machine gun shooting handle.
The whistling sound of bullets suddenly sounded, like a high-pitched war song, filling the heart of the river.
Yellow, orange, and heavy armor-piercing bullets poured out like a storm, causing ripples to appear.
Those frogmen who had been screaming arrogantly and strangely on the water just now were instantly trapped in the vortex of death.
Even if they had seen similar weapons before, they had no time to dodge now and could only watch helplessly as the bullets passed through their bodies like the scythe of death.
Pieces of flesh and blood flew in the air, falling heavily, causing splashes of water.
The surface of the water instantly became a mess, with the frogman's broken limbs and blood everywhere.
The heavy machine gun, which can shoot at a rate of 7,000 rounds per minute and can be overclocked to a maximum of 11,000 rounds, can be called a ruthless killing machine on ordinary battlefields.
They are even more ruthless towards this group of frogmen who only have dwarf weapons but no dwarf protective equipment.
There was no need for the frigate to launch rockets to meet the enemy. In less than a minute, only a few frogmen were left on the water hiding behind their companions.
At this time, nearly a thousand defense team members who were approaching the ruins on the river bank finally reacted.
"I go"
"Su Shen's fleet is too powerful. These frogmen may not understand until they die."
The river surface has been dyed blood red, and there are floating frogman corpses everywhere.
They were just thinking about how to join this battle and repel the frogmen.
Now it seems that it should be completely useless.
But looking at the dwarf weapons mixed in the broken pieces, many people's eyes lit up.
Following the place where the flames dissipated, sampans that were not damaged just now were quickly pushed down.
Some of them held crossbows in their hands, and some held spears directly. They were very experienced in beating up drowned dogs.
"You dare to attack someone like this?"
Standing in the command room, Cui Lu frowned and scanned the images transmitted from the surveillance cameras one by one.
Except for the first wave of frogmen who suddenly attacked and used dwarf weapons to cause some damage to the fleet.
The rest of the time is completely free.
After all, in the face of machine gun fire, many human frogmen dared to rush over and brandish dwarf weapons to launch a counterattack.
Whether it is placed in the human world or the alien world, this can be called an explosion.
Could it be that the drama is real?
Cui Lu was filled with doubts and couldn't understand the significance of the appearance of these frogmen.
But soon, as more images returned in the surveillance screen, and the heat response in the radar map changed.
Looking at the young man on the river bank who was guarded by the guards in the center, he could not suppress his astonishment.
Cui Lu's frown suddenly relaxed and he stood up with interest.
In the blink of an eye, a plan that the other party might execute flashed through his mind.
But the plan could not keep up with the changes. Perhaps the people who made the plan did not expect that the frogmen holding dwarf weapons could not last even half a minute.
This is very embarrassing.
It's like the supporting actor in a fantasy novel who is used to promote the plot has just appeared, and is instantly killed by the protagonist with a thunderous force, which catches people off guard.
And at this point, if you want to continue to promote the development of the plot, the original development must not be applied.
Those who make plans must find ways to correct these mistakes in a very short period of time.
"Hey, let me see, what would you do?"
He stared at the changes in the young man's expression with piercing eyes, from the initial shock to the frown, and then to the frown at the end.
Cui Lu suddenly wanted to laugh, and even understood what Su Deben had felt before.
This feeling of being able to completely crush the opponent in terms of strategy and IQ
I have to say, it’s really fascinating!
The explosion on the river bank seemed huge, but in fact it did not cause much harm.
Blowing up river banks and diverting water into the territory are obviously not something some dwarf bombs can do.
In other words, from beginning to end, blowing up the river bank is not the mission of these bombs.
Their existence is more like a starting gun. When fired, a grand stage play will begin.
"The damage statistics have been completed. Except for two frigates that were damaged by more than 50% and need to be docked immediately for repairs, the damage rates of the other frigates are all below 30%, which is enough to support us after we return to the territory. Whole ship overhaul.”
"In terms of casualties, two people were slightly injured and needed about half a month to recuperate. The reason was that when the endgame was being closed, the inferior dwarf weapons self-destructed after being soaked in water for too long. Although most of the shock wave was absorbed by the river, there were sporadic splashes. It still caused damage.”
"We have organized manpower to rescue survivors on the river when the attack just broke out. But the results are not optimistic. Many people chose to dive in panic at the first time, and were carried downstream. Now the rescue is very difficult. ”
The sense of information gap was most vividly reflected in this encounter.
The battle did not cause any substantial damage to the fleet due to early detection of the enemy lurking under the water.
Including all cargo ships carrying cargo, there was no damage at all.
As for the survivors who had come closer earlier, they could have easily survived.
It's a pity that many people's psychological quality is really poor.
It was very much like a small fire had just broken out, and the fire brigade was still on the way, but someone couldn't stand the pressure and chose to jump off the building.
In the end, the fire was easily extinguished, but the person who jumped from the building broke his bones.
"Just try your best to search and rescue, and arrange for our medical team to intervene as soon as possible."
After all, reality is not a game. Cui Lu never thought that he could win a zero-cost war, so he has no psychological burden now. He just urges the medical team accompanying the fleet as much as possible to do a good job in the aftermath of this battle.
As for the leader of the Red Flower Gang, the lord 'Ji Wuming' whose name is as crazy as the hero of the novel.
There were not many complaints about this. They also arranged for manpower to clean the battlefield and used the territory's public funds to treat the injured.
"Captain Cui, I'm very sorry for this raid. This may be because I notified the territory of my return home in advance, but please rest assured that we have internally identified the spy who passed the news and are in the process of arresting him. action!"
Liu Zhi, with his charred and bald head, boarded the central command ship and came to confess with an uneasy look on his face.
As he was preparing to disembark, a bomb exploded on the riverbank.
Fortunately, this guy did have some luck, and his hair was only burned by the violent fire.
Of the two unlucky guys accompanying him, one had his forearm broken by the explosion, and the other was thrown away and suffered a concussion.
"Aliens are the common enemy of mankind, and their raids are also aimed at our Tianyuan. It has nothing to do with whether you deliver the message or not."
Cui Lu smiled kindly, stepped forward and patted Liu Zhi on the shoulder.
"In other words, we have to thank you. After all, you also have a share of the credit for this victory at Honghua Port!"
