Chapter 13 Titans
The process of waiting for the fire to be extinguished in the Qingshiguan Fortress below felt extremely long. Although it was only a short 20 minutes or so, for the people on the airship, especially those students of Qianlongtang who had never experienced real wars, it was extremely long. , The ten minutes or so is not much less than the time it took everyone to come here by airship from Qianlong Island.
For most of the castles and fortresses built with stone or reinforced concrete as the main raw materials in this era, the biggest effect of white phosphorus gel incendiary bombs is not to destroy the target's building structure, but to damage the living personnel and the parts on the ground. facilities for destruction and killing.
The white phosphorus gel incendiary bomb cannot be extinguished after burning, and will condense and adhere to the surface of the object that is sputtered in a large area to continue burning. Its combustion temperature can reach a maximum of more than 1,000 degrees. Under such temperature and combustion effect , as long as it is stained, most of the defensive facilities on the ground that rely on steam will be destroyed.
If it gets on people or some combustibles, let alone the result.
From the beginning to the end, the anti-air defense turret of the Qingshiguan Fortress below only had time to fire two ballistas, and they were completely misfired in the flames of the white phosphorous gel incendiary bombs. For a large war airship at an altitude of 1,000 meters, it lost its strength even after hitting the bottom of the airship for a long distance, and fell down in a parabola.
Once the white phosphorus gel incendiary bombs are attacked, the steam pipes of the castle or fortress are damaged or mechanical failure occurs, and the pressure value on those turrets drops, the anti-aircraft ballista will become a decoration.
In this era, the most effective weapon against airships is airships. Unfortunately, until Huaiyuantang's airships completed their first wave of attacks, the airships of the Zhen family in Tianhan City had no chance to show their heads.
This is the advantage of a surprise attack, never giving the opponent a chance to react and breathe.
After the flames below were gradually extinguished and the German and French air defenses of the fortress were disarmed, the airship Zhang Tie and the others were riding on began to lower the flying altitude. Strafing, clearing the obstacles below for Zhang Tie's airborne landing.
When the small-caliber rapid-fire steam ballista on the airship shoots upwards and downwards, its power is not ordinary. The arrows fired fly out with huge inertia, and can easily knock out two people wearing armor. If it is shot at a person's hands and feet, if the arrow goes down, it will be the result of severed hands and feet.
The terrifying war airship is like a goshawk pouncing on its prey, constantly attacking the targets below from the air again and again. The soldiers in some of the fortresses that were barely assembled under the attack of incendiary bombs just now, In a blink of an eye, he was shot by the rapid-fire steam ballista of the airship again, making his mother and father cry.
"Open the airborne hatch covers No. 1 to No. 6..."
"Put down the steel rope..."
"The Ballista should do a good job of fire suppression and cover..."
"The fighters prepare to drop..."
The commanders of the crew in the airship shouted loudly, and within a few seconds, the preparations for the airborne combatants were completed. This airborne, because the height is too low, but also the pursuit of speed and efficiency, so instead of using a parachute, the use of a steel rope to slide down, everyone mainly pulls the speed control pulley on the steel rope for a few seconds time to slide from the airship to the ground
In a few seconds, everyone stood at the door of the airborne hatch. Bitter wind blew in from the downwardly opened airborne hatch. On the bottom armor plate of the airship, there were sporadic crisp sounds of being shot by arrows. The "jingling" sound,
Although the defenders of the fortress below have been hit and suffered a number of casualties, they have not completely lost their combat effectiveness.
At this moment, there are almost a thousand troops below, some of them are in a mess, while others are organizing resistance. Relying on a pure air attack alone, unless a powerful alchemy bomb is dropped, there is no way to completely disintegrate the people below.
"Who is the first to come?" The senior officer who explained the mission to everyone in the airship just now looked at everyone and asked. The first one to go down must be the target that was under siege by the people below, and he didn't even go down. The few seconds on the steel rope are the target below, which can be said to be very dangerous.
But in this operation, the reason why the family elders and elders want to involve the family students of Qianlongtang, apart from the fact that the family students of Qianlongtang are a very important force, has another meaning, that is, they hope that Qianlong Most of the students in the hall can experience the taste of war for themselves.
The Huaiyuan Hall has been in peace for a long time, and there have been almost no actions of this scale in the past two decades.
Hearing what the officer said, just when others were about to stand up, Zhang Tie, who was already full of fighting spirit, leaped without saying a word, grabbed the speed control pulley on the steel rope and jumped off the airship.
The moment Zhang Tie jumped out of the cabin of the airship while grasping the speed control pulley with his left hand, Zhang Tie saw the situation below clearly in an instant—and on the far horizon, the first ray of dawn had just emerged.
Still on the steel rope, Zhang Tie pulled out the javelin on his back with his backhand, and threw it at the guy below who was aiming at the airship with a bow and arrow, and instantly pierced that person.
Zhang Tie's movements are fast, and the speed of the speed control pulley descending on the steel rope is also very fast, more than ten meters in almost a second. He threw the nine javelins in the metal standard bag.
At the same time Zhang Tie emptied his reloading metal bag in the blink of an eye, everyone in the airship felt the sound of the "clinking" arrows hitting the armor at the bottom of the airship suddenly faded away. Those with good ears and more careful ears noticed the popping sound in the air after Zhang Tie threw the javelin every time.
There were nine sound strikes in a row, and the nine guys on the ground who were the biggest threat to everyone's airborne landing were eliminated by Zhang Tie in the blink of an eye. The senior officer above looked at Zhang Tie's back, and a bright brilliance flashed in his eyes.
"Next batch of people every three seconds, hurry up!" The officer yelled, and the other male students in Huaiyuan Hall who saw Zhang Tie had jumped off were all unwilling to show weakness. The steel rope jumped down.
After killing the next nine seemingly powerful shooters in a row, Zhang Tie became the target of other shooters, but fortunately, he was descending very fast, and the airship was moving around the Qingshi Fortress, and someone shot at him. Several arrows flew past his body, and the only one was powerful and came straight towards Zhang Tie's face, but was also blocked by Zhang Tie's backhand grabbing the heavy spiked shield on his back.
Although the arrow was blocked by the shield, Zhang Tie's arm was shaken by the fierce force on the arrow.
In the blink of an eye, Zhang Tie looked down, and saw a horse-faced officer in his thirties wearing black armor next to a turret of the castle below, pointing at him with a bow. The man looked at Zhang Tie fiercely. Iron, the eyes of the two people collided in the air with a distance of almost a hundred meters.
A large group of soldiers in black armor holding spears below rushed towards Zhang Tie's predetermined landing point, and someone shouted, "Kill that person, kill that person, whoever kills one enemy tonight will be promoted to a higher rank!" , reward one hundred gold coins!"
Below is the horse-faced officer with swords and guns in the distance, aiming at Zhang Tie and quickly drawing his bow. Zhang Tie grabbed the steel rope and swung it, and let go in an instant. He was more than 30 meters away from the ground, like a shooting star. Jumped to the ground.
No one could have imagined that Zhang Tie, who was wearing heavy armor, would dare to jump down with such a brave attitude at this height. The students of Qianlongtang who slipped down the rope were also unexpected.
If he hadn't eaten a bunch of iron embryos and used the pressure of seawater in the deep sea to temper his body far beyond what ordinary people can bear, Zhang Tie would not have dared to jump from this height wearing equipment weighing hundreds of kilograms. Going down, this height is already the limit that his current body can bear.
Because Zhang Tie didn't expect Zhang Tie to jump down, the second arrow shot by the horse-faced officer who made a mistake in judgment could barely pass by a foot above Zhang Tie's head, and the group of soldiers below rushed towards Zhang Tie's intended foothold. They also hurriedly turned.
Zhang Tie activated the rune of the speed movement in the sea of consciousness while in the air.
With a "boom", Zhang Tie's whole body hit the ground like a cannonball. With a wave of his shield, the five soldiers of the Black Armored Regiment who had just rushed over instantly flew out with broken bones and spouting blood.
Then Zhang Tie bounced up again like lightning, and rushed towards the horse-faced officer, standing between Zhang Tie and the horse-faced officer, the soldiers of the Heijia regiment who rushed towards Zhang Tie were instantly protected by shields. Zhang Tie sent more than 20 people into the air with his collision technique.
Seen from the air, Zhang Tie looked like a wild bull running wildly, and the soldiers of the Heijia regiment became scarecrows who stood in the way of the bull and had no strength to fight back, and were completely crushed.
The powerful strength of his body and the blessing effect of the god's rune on speed made Zhang Tie at this moment, even wearing heavy armor, his speed still reached a terrifying level.
Seeing that Zhang Tie was so horrified and charged directly at him, the horse-faced officer finally panicked, and he shot a third arrow at Zhang Tie.
Zhang Tie threw out the shield, and the thorny heavy shield weighing more than 100 kilograms whistled and spun. The third arrows shot collided together.
Zhang Tie, who threw out the shield, sped up again, and before the horse-faced officer had time to shoot the fourth arrow, Zhang Tie rushed over.
"Kill!" Zhang Tie's tongue was like spring thunder, and he punched out with a shocking shout.
Zhang Tie's shout was so loud that it instantly overwhelmed the chaotic and noisy shouts of killing in the entire fortress. They all felt a buzzing in their heads, and the movements of their hands slowed down suddenly.
Many people in the fortress unconsciously turned their heads to look at Zhang Tie.
That person punched Zhang Tie...
Just a punch...
The whole body of the horse-faced officer was like porcelain that had fallen from dozens of stories of buildings, bursting to pieces in an instant, turning into a cloud of blood.
"Ah, the battalion commander has been killed..." Many soldiers of the Black Armor Regiment panicked...
Behind Zhang Tie, a nearly 100-meter-tall centipede battle spirit totem suddenly rose in the burning blood waves, looking down at the soldiers in the fortress with blood-red eyes full of murderous intent, as if about to eat Seeing Zhang Tie's terrifying performance and the battle spirit totem that looked like a god descending from the earth, many people were stunned. The fighting spirit of the soldiers of the Black Armored Regiment was captured by Zhang Tie alone in an instant...
"Peerless titan, peerless titan..." Seeing Zhang Tie's performance on the airship, the senior officer shouted excitedly, "Who is this person, who is this person, why haven't I heard of it before? "
Looking at Zhang Tie wrapped in that steel armor, Ma Aiyun and the others who knew Zhang Tie felt their minds went blank. Zhang Tie on the battlefield was simply a killing machine, so powerful and fierce that they all felt a little strange... …(To be continued, this text is provided by Breaking Dawn Update Team x-on:, Da Doudou mm.
