Castle of Black Iron

Chapter 29 Offensive and Defensive Momentum

On June 11, Zhang Tie followed Jin Yunguo's airship troops to a large airship base code-named c-base 50 kilometers behind Wolf City to rest after performing a week-long theater patrol mission.

This is the third time Zhang Tie has come here in more than a month, so he is no stranger.

The torrential rain for two consecutive days marked the beginning of the summer rainy season in the Cernes Plain. The torrential rain for these two days not only affected the actions of the airship troops to a certain extent, but also affected the flying missions of the gliders on other airships besides Zhang Tie. Almost impossible to unfold.

When the Fool landed, Zhang Tie's military boots just stepped out of the cabin door, and several ground ambulance vehicles from the airship base quickly passed by two meters in front of him, and some of the water droplets splashed by the wheels fell on the ground. On Zhang Tie's trousers and shoes.

There was a lot of soot in the shallow water on the ground, and when it fell on the pants, it was a series of black spots. The splashed sewage didn't shy away from Zhang Tieselness's identity as the eagle, but rather proudly stained his brand new military uniform that he had just put on.

Zhang Tie looked down at his trousers and shoes that were splashed with a bunch of black spots, and then looked at the direction of the ground ambulance vehicles. He just shook his head slightly and didn't care. The flagship of the airship troop of Jinyun State where Yunxi was located walked over.

It was still raining in the sky, but it was much smaller. Zhang Tie was wearing a waterproof poncho, and walking on the road of Base C, which was full of airships, a haze flashed in his heart. This haze did not come from the bottom of his trousers Those mud spots were a new situation encountered after this week's mission - Zhang Tie found that the winged demons seemed to have disappeared for three consecutive days. He didn't find a winged demon in the sky, which was not a good omen.

The demons will not back down, and the winged demons did not appear, which means that the demons have thought of a new tactic to deal with the human race. besides. There will be no second possibility.

The atmosphere at Base C also seemed a little tense, this time around. When he was still in the sky, Zhang Tie clearly felt that the security here had been strengthened a lot. Seven kilometers to the north of the base, there seemed to be another battle fort. The barbed wire fence around the base and the number of patrolling troops have also increased.

At this moment, there are more than 3,000 airships staying at the airship base in Wolfe City. Just like the airship exhibitions in various countries on the Hawaiian subcontinent, there are rising and falling airships within a radius of tens of kilometers. That spectacular scene , Zhang Tie was amazed when he came for the first time. After coming here twice, Zhang Tie also became numb.

Artists and poets may find something in war that can inspire and inspire them, but for a person who really participated in the process of war, the cruelty and coldness of war. In a very short period of time, all the fantasies and romantic factors in a person will be smashed to pieces, and then there are only two thoughts left in my mind-how can I survive? How to kill the enemy?

There are people coming and going in the c base, and almost no one has the leisure to walk in the rain. Everyone is either jogging or driving a car, rushing past the road. The airship that landed makes the ground crew busy. Various supplies were carried out for the airship, and the crew of those airships that finally landed flocked to the strip bars and brothels around the base.

Zhang Tie's footsteps are also a little fast. Although he is walking, he is almost trotting like other people, and no one recognizes him on the road. In the past month or so, Zhang Tie's name has never appeared in "Holy War" In the Newsletter, he didn't even update the results on the record list in the Crystal Battle Castle. In this case, the outside world paid much less attention to him.

When they arrived at Lan Yunxi's flagship, almost half of the officers above the commander-in-chief of each squadron of the Jinyun State Airship Force had already arrived. The rank of sergeant is a bit dazzling,

However, his unique air cavalry uniform made him an exception, and he was eligible to participate in the fleet's high-level meeting.

The participants are all elites from the younger generation of the six major families of Jinyun Kingdom. For these people, they value the ranking on the record list in the Crystal Battle Castle more than the military rank on each other's shoulders, so , No one has any objection to Zhang Tie's attendance at the meeting.

Many of those people had lost bets with Zhang Tie. Facing Zhang Tie's powerful performance in the sky, those guys had nothing to say. They were very polite when they saw Zhang Tie. .

People who have already come here are sitting on both sides of the conference table discussing something quietly. Zhang Tie's position is in the middle of the right-hand side of the conference table. He found his seat and just sat down. The guy has already moved his head over, "The situation in the war zone seems to be a bit bad!"

Zhang Tie nodded with a serious expression.

The person talking to Zhang Tie was Wang Cheng, a son of the Wang family, one of the six major families in Jinyun Kingdom, and a chief officer of the Seventh Squadron of the airship force. After meeting a few times, because the two people sat relatively close to each other, they became familiar with each other.

The last time Zhang Tie came to Base C, he dated several young officers with this guy to drink at the officer club of the base for a night. That night, a bunch of guys had bad intentions and wanted to pour Zhang Tie down. Unexpectedly, Zhang Tie, who can dump the contents of his mouth and stomach into the pool of chaos at any time, is completely a bottomless pit. He put more than a dozen guys in the wine alone, even if those guys use the wheel to fight.

After that time, Zhang Tie's reputation for drinking among Jinyun Kingdom's airship troops suddenly became louder than his honorary title of Eagle of Cyrnes, and he looked like the overlord of the liquor store.

What Wang Cheng said was not good was soon confirmed. A few minutes later, after all the officers had arrived, Lan Yunxi, dressed in the uniform of a major general and with a majestic aura, appeared.

When Lan Yunxi appeared, all the officers sitting on both sides of the conference table stood up, and Zhang Tie also stood up.

Lan Yunxi had no superfluous expression on her face, she just glanced across the faces of the participants, and when she saw Zhang Tie, she stayed on Zhang Tie's face for less than a third of a second longer, satisfied Let go of the little vanity in Zhang Tie's heart. Then nodded, and everyone sat down again.

"Just received the news that the French Federation's airship troops were wiped out by the demons yesterday..."

Although Lan Yunxi only said one sentence, it was this sentence. All of a sudden, the temperature in the entire meeting room dropped below zero.

The entire conference room. There was silence for almost half a minute before someone asked in a hoarse voice. "Is this... news confirmed?"

"The coalition command has sent several demon hunting teams to the area where the Francia Federation's airship troop crashed to check and confirm. According to the analysis results on the spot, there is no time for the Francia Federation's airship troop to be shot down and annihilated from the encounter with the demons." More than twenty minutes!" Lan Yunxi's voice was still calm.

"How is it possible? Although the performance of the airships of the Francia Federation's airship force is slightly worse than that of the wrath level, it is also a fleet with more than 500 large war airships. How could the demons be able to fly in 20 minutes? Completely annihilate such an airship fleet within a few days?" An officer shouted involuntarily.

"This is a fact. The so-called possibility is based on past experience!" Lan Yunxi looked at the officer with wise eyes, "When we say the word impossible, please ask Myself, what is my basis, is that basis strong enough to be unshakable? Or is it some kind of habit or subjective will, this meeting is not discussing the issue of possibility and impossibility, because it is no longer necessary. We want What is clear is how the demons did it, and how we should deal with it."

Zhang Tie was also thinking about Lan Yunxi's words with his head down. As a commander, no matter whether Zhang Tie admits it or not, Lan Yunxi is indeed better than himself in many aspects, which is why she can shock these people. From Lan Yunxi, Zhang Tie himself has learned a lot.

The analysis and judgment of this kind of overall situation is not Zhang Tie's forte. He just kept silent for a while, and when he saw that everyone was frowning and thinking, he took the initiative to open it. , when it comes to the understanding of the demon winged demons, if Zhang Tie thinks he is second, no one would dare to jump out and say that he is the first.

The only one who can shoot down the human airship troops in a short time is the Winged Demon, and only the Winged Demon. This is Zhang Tie's most direct judgment.

"When everyone is thinking about how the demons did it, there is a situation that I hope everyone can understand first. In the past few days, the number of winged demons I have encountered and discovered has decreased by 90% compared to the previous period. Above, those winged demons seem to have disappeared out of thin air, which is very abnormal. Combined with what happened to the airship troops of the French Federation, I think that the demons may have changed their tactics. How did they do it? It won't be too complicated, but it may be very simple, that is, the main army of the demons, and it may have changed the way the winged demons use it!"

Zhang Tie's words shocked everyone, and pairs of eyes focused on Zhang Tie all of a sudden.

"In the past, the method of the demons using the winged demon troops in the Cernes theater was to cast a net, disperse the winged demons, and throw them into the entire theater in twos and threes, so that the winged demons would be like Wandering around like wild wolves in the sky, looking for opportunities, and now, I guess, the demons have begun to concentrate the power of the winged demons, and within 20 minutes, a fleet of more than 500 war airships will be launched. Troop annihilation, for the Demon Race, it only needs to invest more than 1,000 Winged Demons at one time. Because of the weather, when the airship troops have no glider warning, those Winged Demons use the cover of clouds or terrain to suddenly enter the airship Only in the formation of the troops can such an annihilation battle be completed in a short period of time!"

After Zhang Tie finished speaking, he saw Lan Yunxi looking at him with a hint of appreciation and encouragement. Seeing Lan Yunxi's gaze, he knew that Lan Yunxi probably knew the truth behind it, but Did not say it all at once.

As soon as Zhang Tie's words fell, many people started to discuss. After some discussions, everyone agreed with Zhang Tie's statement, that is, the demons had indeed begun to change the way the winged demons used their troops.

This is not a trivial matter, but a major event that concerns everyone in the entire Cernes theater. The demons began to focus on the winged demons, which means that the main army of the demons has found the human race in the Cernes defense line. Weaknesses, and began to use deeper strength and greater investment to prepare to tear apart the human race's line of defense in Cyrnes.

Air supremacy is a powerful protective umbrella for the human race's defense line in the Cernes theater. Under the protection of this protective umbrella, the human race's ground troops have the possibility to confront the demon army. If this protective umbrella is lost, then, the ground It is impossible for the troops to last long in front of the overwhelming demon army.

The air supremacy of the human defense line relies on the powerful airship unit, but the powerful airship unit of the human race has a weakness in the Cyrnes theater. All of a sudden exposed.

War is sometimes governed by a bunch of strange mathematical principles and relativity.

It is the principle of probability that exposes the weakness of the race's airship troops.

When the winged demons appeared in the Celnes theater in a scattered manner, it was a high probability event for all airship troops to encounter the winged demons, and it was a small probability event for large-scale airship troops to be wiped out by the winged demons. Because it far exceeds the number of Winged Demons, it still firmly holds the air supremacy in the sky of Cyrnes.

This is a net against another net in the air.

And when the demons began to use the winged demons intensively, then all this changed. It is no longer a high probability event for the airship troops of the human race to encounter the winged demons in the sky, because the activity space and time of the winged demons have been compressed. Once encountered, the balance of power between the two sides in a local area will be reversed at once, and the annihilation of the human race's airship troops will become a high probability event.

The Winged Demons can gain relative air supremacy at certain times and places, and through this relative air supremacy, they can completely subvert the advantages of the human race's airship troops and erode them step by step...

The demons can concentrate and use the winged demons without restriction, but the airship troops of the human race cannot do this due to the flight principle of the airship, the level of command and communication, and various objective conditions. will have any effect.

Because if tens of thousands of airships appear in the sky and act together, even if they are arranged in the densest formation, they will occupy an area of ​​tens of square kilometers in the sky, unless the demons are blind and waiting for you to attack and Bombing, otherwise the actions of such an airship unit will not achieve much results at all, and it will also give the demons an opportunity. In terms of the penetration of the Three-Eyed Society into the war zone, I am afraid that such an action plan has just been issued to the airship troops, and the Demon Race will know what the Human Race wants to do.

After several months of confrontation with the Human Race Alliance in the Selnes Theater, when the rainy season in the Selness Theater this year came, the Demon Legion finally found the Human Race line of defense in the constant friction and confrontation with the Human Race Alliance Army The weakness of the human race began to tear through the air umbrella of the human race in the Cyrnes theater.

The net of the Demon Race turned into a knife, and began to forcefully poke a hole in the umbrella cover of the umbrella in the sky of the Human Race...

Following Lan Yunxi's explanation and everyone's discussion, Zhang Tie, who had been listening quietly by the side after speaking once, slowly sank.

Don't the demons really have any weaknesses?

"No, what the demons did is actually giving us a chance, a chance that may severely injure the demons' ground troops. It is not without any price for the demons to change the way the winged demons use their troops..." In the hearts of everyone When the cloud was shrouded, Lan Yunxi's firm voice reached Zhang Tie's ears...
