Chapter 351 Dive Bombing
While fierce fighting was taking place on the ground battlefield, the aerial battlefield was also very lively.
The Gale Wind Principality army pushed more than a dozen airships forward as far as possible, and released the gods and monsters to approach the airspace above the Eternal Territory position.
Large groups of griffons circled behind.
The mages riding the griffins and the mages on the airship used magic force field shields in the airspace to build large air obstacles.
Facing the fast-flying planes over the Eternal Front, the Gale Principality knew the strengths and weaknesses of its air units.
Since it's not about speed, it's about mobility in a small range.
In an air full of obstacles, the space for the Eternal Territory's fighters to play was once again compressed.
And just when the air combat troops of the Principality of Storm were preparing to use force field obstacles in the air to carry out an aerial breakthrough on the Eternal Territory position.
After completing the task of long-range fire suppression, the artillery behind the Eternal Territory raised their muzzles together.
The roar that could cause the earth to shake sounded again, and 152mm and 122mm high-explosive bombs were launched diagonally upward.
The eternal airspace units that had received early warning of the artillery attack climbed early and left the airspace where the artillery shells would pass.
A large swath of high-explosive bombs passed over the position and crashed into the air obstacle area set up by the Gale Wind Principality Army.
The explosions were like brilliant fireworks, blooming one by one in the air.
Heavy artillery on the ground is very ineffective at hitting flying units with small targets, but when dealing with air obstacles placed at low altitudes, the destructive power of heavy artillery can be unleashed.
The aerial obstacles placed in the sky by the Principality of Storm were dismantled.
The Vulture fighter jet swooping down from high altitude arrived just in time, and one fighter jet was equipped with six machine guns.
More than a hundred Falcon fighter jets intertwined into a fire net, pouring ammunition into the gap created by the heavy artillery.
In the first air battle with the Eternal Territory, the Wind Principality was still very cautious. After realizing that the air obstacle assault tactic was not feasible, the Air Force of the Principality of Storm chose to retreat in the face of the enemy's ferocious firepower.
It is at this time...
Yanxing's order to carry out targeted bombing of the Temporary Defense Positions of the Principality on the ground was passed to the Deer Hunter dive bomber group that had been hovering in the air on standby.
42 Stag Hunter dive bombers dived downward at a small angle in three batches.
When arriving at an airspace close to 2,000 meters, the dive bomber pilot confirmed the target according to the tasks assigned by Fubuki.
The dive bombers dispersed and entered their bombing routes.
After circling and adjusting its angle, the dive bomber turned over and began a vertical dive at an altitude of 1,000 meters directly above the target.
At this time, Fuchui will assist the driver in aiming at the target throughout the process.
The screams of dive bombers were the only sound in the sky at the moment.
After diving to a distance of 300 meters to 200 meters above the ground, the aerial bomb hanging from the belly of the aircraft is dropped.
The dive bomber immediately changed to level flight, and then quickly raised its altitude to leave the danger area.
The soldiers of the Gale Wind Principality army who were hiding behind bunkers on the ground didn't know what the roaring sound in the sky was, when an aerial bomb weighing half a ton fell around them.
The explosion seemed to tear the earth apart.
The exploded mud can fly hundreds of meters into the air, and a shock wave visible to the naked eye sticks to the ground and sweeps outward across everything.
When the smoke and dust dissipated, the bunker wall built with earth magic disappeared, leaving only a large smoking pit.
Some scattered limbs and armor can be vaguely seen.
Explosions like this occurred one after another along the entire front, and every roar was like a heavy hammer hitting the hearts of everyone on the battlefield.
It even caused a brief silence on the entire battlefield.
The soldiers of the Guild Wind Principality's army, who had been fighting bravely just now, ran back while shouting. And the scream that just resounded through the sky once again appeared from the top of the head with a long sound. The sound seemed to be a cry from hell, and it was sprinkled with fire and blood.
The soldiers of the Stormy Principality ran faster.
The dive bombers, which had dropped their aerial bombs, continued to use small bombs mounted on their wings to drop them on the enemy.
At the same time, the light and heavy weapons on the Eternal Leader's position opened fire with all their might.
The heavy artillery group in the rear also joined in the bombardment of the retreating enemy troops.
However, the heavy magic throwing device that completed the position transfer launched another magic bombing towards the Eternal Leader position.
Seeing the magic ball flying in the air, the Eternal Frontline soldiers immediately stopped all shooting, carrying their weapons and firing desperately at the nearest Tibetan soldier cave.
Because the heavy artillery positions were warned in advance by high-altitude unmanned reconnaissance aircraft, when the first batch of magic balls took off from the fog of war, they had already moved their positions with their vehicles and cannons.
The sky was quickly dyed red by magic, and fire magic burned a continuous wall of fire in the sky.
After the second magic burst into the fire wall, earth magic and fire magic produced a compound magic reaction. Large pieces of burning meteorites smashed into the Eternal Territory's position.
The timely magic bombing allowed most of the attacking Silvermane Principality soldiers to retreat safely.
The ground battlefield gradually became quiet.
The air war escalated rapidly and entered the heat of hand-to-hand combat.
Standing in the pod of an airship, Anderson watched the changes in the battlefield.
He saw how easily dive bombers could dismantle his own army's tactics.
He also realized that the sharp roar that filled the sky would definitely cause great psychological pressure on his soldiers in the future.
This kind of aircraft must be restrained from carrying out precise and powerful bombing on the ground, otherwise there will be no ground attack at all.
No!
Not just the ground.
The huge hull of the airship is also extremely vulnerable to attacks by such aircraft. With that kind of explosion power, I'm afraid even the airship's defense wouldn't be able to withstand a few.
Therefore, while the Stag Hunter dive bombers were still on the low-altitude battlefield, Marquis Anderson decisively ordered the genies, griffins, and some of the gargoyles on the airship to attack.
In order to cover the dive bombers, the Eternal Air Group's fighter jets advanced to intercept the Tempest Principality's air group.
The fire cloud continued to condense burning meteorites and bombard the ground.
The Eternal Territory's heavy artillery moved to a new position. UU Reading www.uukanshu.nett The artillery crew set up the artillery as quickly as possible in order to suppress the enemy's heavy firepower as soon as possible.
The air power of both sides collided above the fire cloud.
Yan Xing also joined the battle with thirty armored griffons.
The enemy's airship is right in front, and there must be no mistakes in the air.
Hiei's armor adjusts to combat mode.
In addition to the two main turbocharger engines, there are four smaller auxiliary engines protruding from enclosed module slots next to the main engines.
The air wings unfolded, the alchemical ailerons unfolded, and the air flow passed through the flying wings and ailerons and was sprayed backwards.
Yanxing pulled out a rifle from the weapon slot on Feiying's right shoulder.
The other gryphon armors also entered air combat mode, and the knights held the same rifle as Yan Xing.
