Chapter 549 Everyone Likes Big Bang
"So, can we consider using a large number of explosive barrels?" The one who broke the silence was still Evelyn, the one-handed swordsman.
Unlike most swordsmen who tend to be "fighting", she is a typical "tool-based" hunter.
Not only are she good at using common types of explosive bombs and traps, but she is also very good at using very niche hunting tools such as explosive lightning rods. She has killed countless monsters with explosive bombs.
Therefore, facing one of the biggest difficulties in this defense operation - how to clean up small monsters, she set her sights on those explosive barrels that are inconvenient to transport but can be placed in advance to play a huge effect.
"The master also has this idea."
"Master Campbell has also proposed a similar plan."
Gordon and the president said at the same time.
"Is it that Master Campbell?!" Evelyn, who has a cold expression and easily gives people the impression of "difficult to get along with", showed a considerable degree of excitement.
She suddenly looked at Gordon, remembering something.
"I heard that at the end of last year, two of Master Cambe's disciples were promoted to six stars at the same time. One of the great swordsmen seemed to be named Gordon. So you are Master Cambe's disciple?"
"...Yes."
Feidi explained to her in a low voice, "Evelyn has always admired Master Cambe."
"So your hunting partner is called Pig Chop? Has Pig Chop come over?"
"Well, it's here, downstairs." Gordon clearly felt that Evelyn became more excited when she mentioned Pig Chop's name.
"Can Pig Chop also participate in the discussion?"
Evelyn immediately looked at the president, "I heard from Senior Hilda a few days ago that the Elu named Pig Chop improved the formula of Dragon Killer Carbon. Although it reduced stability, its power and portability have been improved.
This explosive that can cause damage to ancient dragons will definitely become the key to defensive operations."
The president nodded and called a staff member to ask her to find Pig Chop.
Gordon muttered in his heart that the way this one-handed sword master thinks is really similar to Master Zhuchou and the others, and his head was pounding.
The lady president signaled Evelyn to calm down and continued: "In the previous meeting, Master Cambe mentioned that a large number of explosive bombs could be placed thousands of meters away from the fort to lure small monsters such as speed dragons to come before the old mountain dragon arrives and kill some of them in advance.
The speed dragon group will not be too close to the old mountain dragon, so it is unlikely to injure the old mountain dragon at the same time, but the number of speed dragon groups can be reduced to a certain extent."
The eight-star double-sword user named Xia Zuo, who gave people a serious and steady feeling, continued: "In this way, after the old mountain dragon crosses the mess, the flesh and blood scattered on the ground can continue to attract the attention of those small monsters and reduce their impact on the battle."
"Yes, this is the first step in the defensive operation. First eliminate a group of small monsters in front of the old fort, and the same strategy will be used again in front of the new fort."
Evelyn added at this time: "The method of luring is also very simple, slaughter a few herbivorous dragons in advance Livestock such as velociraptors and pterosaurs will be attracted by the smell of blood.
The difficulty of this part of the operation is how to arrange the explosive barrels to ensure that the explosives will not be accidentally triggered and detonated before enough small monsters gather, resulting in poor results.
Use fuse to delay detonation? Bury underground, pull rope to detonate? "
"I don't feel good. "
Following the staff into the office, Pig Chop heard someone discussing the problem he had been thinking about recently, and responded subconsciously:
"It is impossible to determine how long it will take for small monsters to gather, so it is impossible to determine the length of the fuse. Burying and detonating is a good way, but it is not suitable for ordinary explosive barrels. The power reduction is too serious. "
"Indeed, otherwise meat plus explosive barrels should become the mainstream tactics. "
Evelyn pointed to the side and asked her partner and husband, Ferdie, to move aside and stand. She patted the empty seat and motioned Pig Chop to come and sit.
Pig Chop did not notice the strange eyes of Gordon and Ferdie, ran over and sat down, and the man and the cat continued to discuss.
"Maybe we can consider air blasts. If the terrain nearby is suitable, we can drop barrels of explosives from a high altitude."
"This plan should be feasible, but we need to consider the problem of aerial pterosaur attacks. We can arrange several hunters to cover the side, and it is better to arrange a light crossbowman with good marksmanship..."
"Shoot the barrel of explosives in the air before it falls to the ground! This can ensure the maximum power of the explosives! And the barrel of explosives itself can also be modified to a certain extent..."
"Increase the proportion of broken dragon fish scales. The defense ability of small monsters such as velociraptors and pterosaurs is not strong. Sacrifice a little explosive power to increase the killing range!"
"Yes!"
Seeing that the two explosive enthusiasts were getting more and more excited in the corner, the president cleared her throat, "You can slowly refine the details of this part of the operation later, let's talk about it first."
As she said, the president pulled a thin rope, and a layout map of the old fort unfolded and hung down, covering the original large map of the Shulet area.
"The structures of the old fort and the new fort are similar. They are both built in the canyon with the help of the terrain. They can be roughly divided into two parts: the 'city wall' and the 'battle street'.
Let's talk about the old fort first. From the time when Laoshanlong enters the canyon, it is the first battle street, which is about five kilometers long. Heavy crossbows and artillery are set up every other section on the mountains on both sides.
Artillery is the main force to attack Laoshanlong, and the main function of heavy crossbows is to cover the artillery positions.
I have some bad news to tell you. As the old fort has been abandoned for a long time, most of the artillery and heavy crossbows in the battle street have been scrapped.
Even if the guild makes every effort to transport them, it can only give priority to the transportation of artillery. There are not many heavy crossbows that can be used. The work of covering the artillery positions is the responsibility of the shooters. "
"Who will cover the shooters?"
Ted has always been a straightforward person. He asked in a rough voice: "There are so many winged snake dragons and speed dragons. Even if a group is killed, there will be many that slip through the net."
The president looked at him, "So the guild basically dispatched four-star or even five-star shooters. They have enough ability and experience to protect themselves.
At the same time, our local hunters in Minagard will basically participate in the war.
A large number of lower-level swordsmen will not directly participate in the attack on the old mountain dragon. After all, there are not many novice hunters and low-star hunters who can remain calm in front of such monsters.
Carrying artillery shells and crossbow shells is their main job, and they will also help cover the shooters. "
"Okay. "
"The old mountain dragon moves very slowly, and it takes about two hours to walk through this battle street.
Your task is to attack as hard as you can, attract its attention, force it to stop, prolong this time, and create more attack opportunities for the artillery.
At the same time, I must remind you that although the old mountain dragon moves slowly, and there has never been any special attack method similar to breathing in the past records, its terrifying body weight of tens of thousands of tons is its biggest weapon.
Facing its attack, there is only one choice, "avoid", don't think about blocking, let alone "pushing back" or something, there is no point. "
When saying the last sentence, the president stared at Ted without blinking.
"I won't mess around!"
"It's better not to. "
