Chapter 370 Scarlet Dawn 4
Dawn has come, but today's dawn is extraordinarily red—not the color of dawn, but the color of war!
In the north, east, and southeast of the Qixia Kingdom, artillery fires from midnight to dawn. At this time, the artillery fire is not so intensive, but there is still no sign of stopping.
Especially as the direction of the war with the Kingdom of Jinyang in the east, Wu Fanghai personally sits in charge, and the legion continues to advance, squeezing the opponent's living space.
Wu Fanghai deserved to be a famous general, artillery, guns, and sniper rifles were all fully utilized by Wu Fanghai. In particular, the legion was armed to the teeth from top to bottom, and rushed up one by one screaming-of course, there was a battle formation structure.
Artillery long-range attack and cover, or focus on attacking the opponent's main force, or artillery camp. The new artillery has an effective range of up to 40 kilometers, and the army of the Kingdom of Jinyang is suffering.
Even without seeing each other, the cannonballs fell; moreover, the new cannonballs even have the function of breaking the prohibition, and the general defensive enchantment is useless. On the contrary, if it explodes inside the barrier and in a relatively closed environment, it will be more powerful.
Under the command of Wu Fanghai, under the cover of artillery, the Qixia Kingdom Legion kept charging and charging again!
The best defense is offense!
If you want to delay the time and prevent the other party from discovering the problem, you can only attack, even more crazy attack, so that the other party will not do what he thinks.
Also, who would have thought that Qixia Kingdom's crazy attack here is simply acting? And the real attack of the Qixia Kingdom is in the north, the Yanyun Kingdom that is separated by a country!
"I don't know what's going on in the north now?" Wu Fanghai was a little worried. Although the plan is good, the plan and the reality are never equal.
As a famous player, Wu Fanghai is very aware of the problems. Even a heavy rain may derail the plan. Not to mention that this time is to destroy a country, who knows how many variables there are.
The Country of Yanyun is the most powerful country in the alliance of five western countries. If the Country of Yanyun can be overthrown in one go, the Country of Qixia has a 70% chance of winning the final victory.
But what if it fails?
Wu Fanghai shook his head, throwing this idea out of his mind. If he does the calculation mentally or not, even if he can't succeed, he will still gain something, unless the people who execute it are fools. But are Liu Dingshan and others fools? Can a fool practice beyond the Nascent Soul stage?
Raising his head, Wu Fanghai looked at the battle ahead. The artillery is still firing, but the front line has advanced more than ten kilometers.
This time, Wu Fanghai changed his tactics unprecedentedly - no longer attacking the city, but killing!
Kill the enemy's vitality!
In the past, the reason why we wanted to attack cities and occupy strategically important areas was because in hand-to-hand battles, "face-to-face, head-to-head" battles, it was often to kill one thousand enemies and lose eight hundred. Therefore, generals must occupy favorable terrain and strive for their own strategic advantages.
But with artillery and guns, the importance of strategic terrain is relatively reduced.
Why is artillery called the god of war? Not only its power, but also because artillery has changed the way of warfare!
With artillery, those who are geographically disadvantaged also have the ability to counter-kill the enemy. With artillery, there is no need for face-to-face warfare anymore. With the artillery, you can kill the enemy soldiers directly - no matter what tactics you have!
If you kill your soldiers, you will be left with a poor commander, no matter how much military talent you have, you will be blinded! Without soldiers, even if the country has a hundred thousand dangers, it can only be mermaid.
Artillery makes warfare more direct and brutal. The war began to draw closer to the massacre.
Wu Fanghai looked at the hills on both sides, and there were red blood oozing from many hills. Here, in this current position, hundreds of thousands of soldiers from the Kingdom of Jinyang were stationed four hours ago. But now these soldiers have been buried in the ground.
When the army just rushed here, there were broken corpses and dense bomb craters everywhere, which was horrible. Wu Fanghai had to have someone push the corpses together to cover them with soil.
Although it is acting, it can also be fake! Hundreds of thousands of shells fell in one night, I really think this is a joke.
It's just that the cost of shells is not low. Wu Fanghai looked around, rubbed his brows, and asked the guard next to him, "How many shells are left?"
"Marshal, more than two-thirds have been consumed. There are still 292,000 shells left. But even at the current speed, we can only last until noon."
Wu Fanghai suddenly covered his forehead, his figure shook a little: burning money!
When the cannon fired, there were millions of spirit stones! From early morning to noon, just half a day, the wealth of 5 million high-grade spirit stones was actually burned.
The last time the Qixia Kingdom blocked the Jinyang Kingdom's attack, the total cost did not exceed 10 million. Now the war has just begun, only half a day, and it is only a battlefield, and the artillery alone has destroyed 5 million people!
Wu Fanghai himself was frightened by this number. According to the current situation, after this war is over, I am afraid that even 100 million people will not be able to fight it!
100 million high-grade spirit stones, what is the concept? It is equivalent to the net income of Qixia Kingdom in the past ten years!
And this is just a war.
"The rules of war have changed, but it seems...really unfamiliar. Is this a war or burning money?" At this moment, Wu Fanghai also felt an indescribable confusion in his heart.
The development of industry and commerce, as well as the budding industrialization have brought dawn to Qixia Country. The wealth created by industry and commerce for the country is ten or a hundred times greater than in the past. But the war under industry and commerce...why is it like this?
But well, the current war is indeed refreshing. As soon as the cannon fired, the enemy was defeated! According to the observation along the way and the captives, it can be estimated that the more than half a million elites of the Kingdom of Jinyang who are about to attack, probably, maybe, may have been destroyed!
It's not that they are disabled, they are disabled, and they have completely lost their aggressiveness and confidence.
That's right, not to mention that the Kingdom of Jinyang is not very familiar with artillery warfare. Even if they are familiar with it, after half a day of crazy bombing, few legions can persist.
Even according to the captives, many soldiers had become deserters, and they were really scared of being beaten.
Think about it, the defensive enchantment is not easy to use, not to mention that the range of our own artillery is still hovering at five or six kilometers, seven or eight kilometers, while the range of other people's artillery directly hits 40 kilometers. There is no way to fight this battle!
So the soldiers ran and fled. Now the legion... I'm afraid it's no longer an organization!
Just like that, at sunrise, the army of the Qixia Kingdom pushed directly to the most important city in the west of the Jinyang Kingdom——Jiangling City!
In Jiangling City, Dong Shikui, the city lord, was scolding his mother. The people who scolded were Zhenxi General Zhou Chengde, General Ma Kui and others.
Ordinarily, Dong Shikui and Zhou Chengde were equal, but at this moment Zhou Chengde could only listen with his head down. It's really... The defeat this time is too ugly.
Nima, without seeing each other, the army is gone.
Who is going to reason with this.
But at this time, the soldiers were already approaching the city, and it was too late to say anything.
Finally, at the last moment, Zhou Chengde finally came to his senses, "City Master, I thought of it. Although the Qixia Kingdom's artillery is powerful, it is not unsolvable. They can penetrate ordinary barriers, but they must not be able to penetrate the 'rock barrier' !"
The rock enchantment is a kind of enchantment that is partial to the door. Different from the rest of the enchantment, the rock enchantment is not an 'energy defense', but a 'physical defense'!
But the rock enchantment also has a disadvantage - it is opaque!
Using a rock barrier is tantamount to making oneself blind.
Most importantly, to block the attack of the artillery, one barrier is obviously not enough, at least two or even three barriers are needed! Putting on two or three layers of rock barriers, even if the formation master came, it would not be able to make the barriers see through.
What is the use of such a defensive enchantment!
But the city lord Dong Shikui's eyes lit up, "We can use an ice-type enchantment! Although it is summer now, using this enchantment will cost a lot, but it will always be effective!"
Just do what you say, the ordinary ice barrier is not complicated, and some are immediately arranged on the top of the city. Large and small ice barriers are intertwined, forming a compound defense system together with conventional barriers.
Under the city, Wu Fanghai asked the army to suspend the attack, but kept the snipers and a few artillery pieces as a deterrent.
According to the plan, the next goal is not the country of Jinyang, but the country of Danyang; besides, the cost is huge now, and the logistics need to breathe. Moreover, it is still necessary to wait for news from the north.
The lieutenant next to him became anxious, "Commander, we can take Jiangling City in one go!"
Wu Fanghai shook his head, but did not explain.
Taking Jiangling City was easy, but it ruined the overall plan. Moreover, winning Jiangling City will inevitably force the opponent's god transformation stage to fight, and the battle situation will be difficult to control at that time.
As an excellent commander, he will never give up control of the battlefield just for one or two victories. Only those who control the battlefield are qualified to seek victory.
But this time, the battlefield spanned six western countries and spanned more than 20,000 miles. It was extremely inconvenient to transmit information. It had to be carried out according to the plan, and there was no room for sloppyness.
Those who blindly pursue victory can only be generals. If you want to be handsome, you must have a big picture.
Thinking of this, Wu Fanghai immediately ordered his soldiers to send a message to the surrounding legions: No matter how smooth the fight is, they are not allowed to sabotage the plan. Otherwise, military law will serve you!
Afterwards, Wu Fanghai pulled several of his 'disciples' to deduce the situation of the battle - the generals around him could be regarded as half disciples. In short, Wu Fanghai is very serious about teaching everyone how to have a big picture.
"Look, if we capture Jiangling City now, an all-out war will break out with the Kingdom of Jinyang. Although we have won, we must not forget that we only have one legion. Moreover, our logistics supplies rely heavily on railways. If Continue to advance, the logistical supply pressure is extremely high.
If we are now facing the Kingdom of Jinyang in an all-round way, we can only fight positional warfare. If we have few people, we must suffer.
Remember, artillery is nice, but not everything. "
"If according to the plan, we can hold back the Kingdom of Jinyang here, so that they don't dare to act rashly, we can also take the opportunity to rest, replenish logistics, and cover for the attack from the south.
As long as we win the country of Danyang, we will be able to attack the country of Jinyang on two fronts.
At that time, it will be the time for the decisive battle with the Kingdom of Jinyang! "
Everyone looked at the map, thinking silently and absorbing Wu Fanghai's strategic wisdom.
Wu Fanghai finally sighed: "On the battlefield, you must consider the overall situation. If you only pursue the gains and losses of one city and one place, you may fall into the opponent's trap!"
…………
The sun rose slowly, and the dawn had passed.
The imperial capital of Yanyun Kingdom has been completely reduced to ruins.
The Great Formation of Sealing Heaven and Locking Earth is continuously compressed and recompressed, and now it is only less than a kilometer in diameter. The enchantment that can seal the imperial capital of a country is only able to seal such a small space, and the strength of the enchantment is beyond imagination.
Inside the barrier, 'Duan Zhengwu' who was covered in purple and black roared. At this time, Duan Zhengwu's face became more ferocious, and dark red lines, like the color of dried blood, began to appear on his body. And what it can do, it has grown wildly to the late stage of the transformation of the gods.
As a blood demon, the Great Formation of Sealing Heaven and Locking Earth had little effect on him. At present, it seems that the most effective is the 'ban'. The sealing ability in the large formation made it impossible for the blood demon Duan Zhengwu to escape.
But being a blood demon is also a headache. Scatter and gather again; then fight again. Although it is said that every time you scatter the opponent, the opponent will become weaker; but at the current speed, I am afraid that it will take thousands of times to kill the opponent.
Thousands of times, everyone can be exhausted into dried salted fish!
The most important thing is that the possibility of continuing to maintain the plan and a quick solution is not high.
Suddenly, the breath of the god transformation stage came from the south.
Liu Dingshan, Fu Yun, and Chen Yansong immediately became vigilant. But soon, the three laughed.
In the distance, Daoist Ming Xu hurried over, and when he saw the blood demon Duan Zhengwu roaring in the barrier, he also took a breath, and then said happily, "Good guy, it's already formed. But you can catch it .Can you tell me about the specific situation?"
Liu Dingshan immediately looked at Daoist Ming Xu, "Fellow Daoist, do you know this thing?"
"Let's talk about it later, you first talk about the situation at that time."
"Okay!" Liu Dingshan didn't hesitate.
After a while, Taoist Master Mingxu looked terrified: "Fellow Daoist did the right thing. Although it was a bit cruel, hunting the living people inside the seal is indeed the right way. Fortunately, you dealt with it in a timely and proper manner, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous!
But this guy has just been formed, and I have something to suppress it for a while, and this time should be enough to wait until the sect's seniors make a move. "
Upon seeing this, Liu Dingshan immediately said: "Then I will leave this place to Fellow Daoist, we have to hurry back and sit in town."
"Wait!" Daoist Mingxu had cold sweat on his face, "Don't leave, fellow daoist, I'm afraid it's not enough for me alone. I'm just in the early stage of transformation, and I can't break up the opponent at all. In case something happens..."
Liu Dingshan frowned immediately.
Daoist Master Ming Xu gritted his teeth, took off his identity jade badge, and handed it to Fu Yun, "Fellow Taoist Fu Yun, for the present plan, I can only trouble you and Chen Yansong to return.
The two of you return to the country of Qixia, take my identity jade card to the battlefield, and let everyone temporarily truce.
Tell them, who dare not listen, destroy them! "
At the end, Taoist Master Mingxu showed a cold but murderous intent on his face. Is it true that the Xuanzhen sect is in the stage of transforming gods, is it a good guy?
Fu Yun hesitated for a while, took the identity jade badge immediately, and nodded: "Okay!"
