Out of the cage

Chapter 1481 Chapter 29.47 Rain Kills Growth

During the three days of heavy rain, when Naga was besieging this small fortress, it was like kicking a huge stone with a small head exposed on the surface of the sand, but actually most of it was buried in the soil.

War is particularly important to men. After experiencing this baptism of blood and fire, the Xia Sheng time travelers who have always been farming on the territory are like girls who turned into women after experiencing certain things.

Eryuan saw those travelers with red eyes and rough voices in the trenches and city walls, as if he saw himself a long time ago.

Six hours after the second wave of attacks by the sea tribe failed, the murloc slaves seemed to be rioting inside Naga. A high-level siren arrived at the murloc riot, suppressed the murloc slaves with a singing spell contract, and began to prepare. The final charge.

On the seawater altar, sea beasts were placed one after another. As the green deep-sea hagfish drilled out of the altar wrapped around these sea beasts, the sea beasts were like frightened beehives, with countless squirming movements, and a large number of macaques burst out of the bodies of the large sea beasts. Big and small murlocs, oh, this is not actually a murloc, it is a parasite.

These parasites only have a lifespan of a dozen hours. It is the Naga tribe's last resort to explode troops.

The perspective came to the human front. In less than five hours, tens of thousands of cannon fodder were added to the Naga camp. The scalps of the humans defending the city wall were numb.

In Tower 3, Sirolina faced a dense crowd of puppy-sized fish slaves who crossed the first line of defense and poured into the inner trench. She looked very unhappy. She was about to cast a spell, but Er Yuan's voice came in the air.

Note: The sound transmission magic uses long-range air vibration and is a necessary magic for the commander.

Accordingly, when Eryuan issued orders to various positions throughout the fortress, he naturally did not forget to pay attention to his own mage troops.

Eyuan: "Your Highness, please stay hidden. I will remind you when these attacking troops have completely gathered on the first line of defense."

Soon, the fish-man parasites were crowded in the inner trench.

In this magical world, there are so many cannon fodders that it is very uneconomical to kill them with swords and guns. Area-wide magic is needed to clear the area.

At present, the water element's chainsaw is still firmly guarding the gap in the inner line. Of course, the chainsaw can no longer slaughter it. From time to time, fish that slip through the net emerge from the water flow at the feet of the water element. ,

In response, Ji Xu, who was in charge of the defense line, made emergency arrangements for the area to be breached and then opened the door to the first line of defense.

"Quack, quack, jiji" (the fish slave's cry)

The cannon fodder fish slaves who originally gathered on the defense line, as dense as Ganges River catfish, saw the gate collapse. They gave up the carp leaping dragon gate against the earth wall and instead swarmed towards the breach in the gate.

This scene was like a black flood leaking in, but the leakage did not spread quickly. However, a slightly larger siltation was once again formed inside the city gate.

Because before Ji Xu left, he filled the four-acre area near the city gate with wooden sticks inserted upside down. When the sea slaves poured in, a considerable part of their bodies were hooked here and became part of the flesh and blood floor.

Due to the breach in the city gate, the attention of the sea slaves was diverted. On the contrary, the defensive pressure on the earth wall was greatly reduced.

The siege point formed by the 20 or 30 murlocs stacked on top of the earth wall was lost, and the subsequent members who came to "replenish their positions" suddenly stopped there.

"Cannon fodder piles" were piled up at several folded notches in the city wall. At this time, there was a snap, and a large bag of lime powder was poured on the slaves who were stacking the Arhats. After the wet contact with these fish-men, they immediately became steaming. .

In the white heat and flying powder, these fish slaves, like a group of rats doused with gasoline, began to run around.

At this time, only one-third of these fishmen have entered the city wall, and two-thirds are outside the city wall, which has formed the best "magic release opportunity"

As the people who spread ashes on the earthen walls retreated, Sirolina's blizzard began to rage.

The sky glowed with white frost, and clusters of cold ice fronts fell from the sky. The originally beating and active murloc immediately withered, and then An An became a dead fish under the cover of ice and snow.

Lao Zhao, who was in charge of long-range firepower, looked at the sparsely scattered fish slaves and shook his head: A single type of ants attacking the city? Thinking too much.

…The frost in the sky gradually thins out, the hail disappears, and the sparse snowflakes are still throwing away rice seedlings…

The cannon fodder of Naga's sacrifices turned into pools of frozen white meat under the city wall, while outside the city were corpses inlaid with hailstones.

The dead fish slave exudes a fishy smell that even ice and frost cannot cover up. Oh, at this time, these dead bodies seem to be good carriers of plague spells. However, Eryuan did not give Master Naga a chance and sowed the grass seeds first.

Under the influence of magic, this plant with fungal properties began to spread.

These murloc corpses quickly turned into liquid and began to spread along the water channel under the city wall. It slowly expanded humidly outward for several hundred meters under the city wall.

Seeing this, the mages of the kingdom lamented that the Mage Faction of Tomorrow is really complicated, and this kind of magic is the magic of the Druid Faction.

…The perspective shifts to the other side of the war…

On the giant dragon turtle, there is a Naga commander with female characteristics. Well, there is a matriarchal society in the ocean. She stands on the shoulders of the Naga royal guards and looks out at the city wall.

The outer artillery positions no longer fired, and were used as cannon fodder to consume the artillery shells in the city. Determined to launch the final attack on the small castle, another force was added.

What? Why didn't Naga come when the fish slave was just possessed by the ants? ——Because fish slaves are the parasitic product of deep-sea demon eels, it is equivalent to humans raising a group of dogs and then infecting them all with rabies. It's okay to drive these packs of dogs to disgust the opponent, and no one will rush with the pack.

Naga usually lets the fish slaves be consumed, and then sends high-value troops to overcome them.

In fact, to further summarize, Naga treats all other racial units with the same attitude towards consumables.

For example, previously, the Mulder murlocs and tide warriors were all slave races conquered by Naga.

This time, there were about two thousand Naga combat units, large and small. But the number of Nagas themselves is not large.

At this time, the Naga hero unit, protected by the Royal Guards, twisted its waist and began to pray to the sky. It seemed that it was summoning wind magic, and a tornado was slowly forming on the battlefield.

The human race also discovered this immediately,

At the observation post, Yunyunji (the traveler) carefully determined that if this tornado was allowed to blow over like this, it would inevitably cause heavy damage to the buildings in the fortress, and the negative buff he had just prepared, that is, the dead The algae formed after the sea slaves fester will be lifted up, causing harm to one's own side.

Therefore, it is necessary to interrupt

Eyuan confirmed the situation on the city wall and began to operate the artillery himself to interrupt the spellcasting of the Gorgon (Naga Hero).

There was a heated discussion in the staff department, and the surveyor (traveler) with mud on his face slapped the table and suggested: Now the "gold coin bullets" (copper-cased wind-blasted cannonballs) will bomb the mages first. The opponents are those slender guys.

As for the royal guards who covered the movement of the tornado and pressed up, weighing one or two tons, these big guys still had to wait a while before they wanted to climb over the city wall, and a single shot of rock cannonballs could not kill these monsters that had been strengthened.

The hail of shrapnel exploded a large number of Gorgons into multiple sections. Although they have strong vitality and can directly absorb the life value of slaves with the "life-draining beam", the current human artillery fire has "poisonous injuries"

After the shell exploded, green mist expanded with the violent gas explosion.

The Snakeman who survived the artillery fire was covered in algae and began to fester within a few minutes. To use the game to describe it: This is similar to encountering the plague buff of the undead and starting to lose blood continuously.

The poison in the "cannonballs" comes from the corpses of sea slaves and is strengthened by "life system" magic. Well, "biochemistry system" and "Nurgle system" are also applicable.

When ulcers grew on the bodies of the marine nobles, these mages had to take a temporary "bath" and purify themselves with dispelling magic. ———What does it feel like to be parasitized by this fungus? Most people on earth in the 21st century have experienced the feeling of athlete's foot. But this one is a hundred times more serious and spreads all over the body.

…The tornadoes in the sky have not disappeared, but the wind power has not increased…

As the fishmen's mages stopped casting spells, the marine warriors who were avoiding the forward attack of artillery fire lost their cover. .

Naga, the last wave of elite monsters that came over, had blisters all over their bodies. After touching the barbs on the wall, a large number of blisters were punctured, and the liquid sprayed out, and they fell down helplessly. Their blood volume is too low and they cannot tolerate these poisonous algae.

Slightly larger fishmen have thicker blood and can resist this negative state, but they also become sluggish when walking.

The human staff in the fortress also understood that success or failure depended on this. According to weather monitoring, the rain would stop in the next three days. Naga was determined to evacuate, so they moved out the copper-cased warheads that they had been reluctant to use before and began to snipe high-value targets in the Kraken array.

For example, there are more than twenty giant turtles with a diameter of five meters and are like tanks.

In the temporary field headquarters set up in the canopy, the staff officer turned on the magic crystal projection.

Eyuan looked at the situation in the projection. According to the information of the Human Alliance, this is the only siege unit among Nagas. After the huge turtle head comes into contact with the city wall, the bony upper and lower jaws in front (similar to Dunkleosteus) can Bite off the brick wall piece by piece.

In the current Tomorrow Territory, the fortress taken over was not made of reinforced concrete after all. The outermost earth wall was broken through by the dragon turtles like a pig-hung fence.

When killing a tank, you have to wait until it separates from the infantry.

Behind Tucheng, the soldiers who had previously evacuated the rear were now back. They put on their lost chemical protective suits and began to carry iron buckets diagonally towards the enemy. , containing explosive packets. On the other side of the city wall, firepower to suppress other units near the Dragon Turtle was also being prepared.

On the other side, Zhaoshou used communication magic to command the soldiers to be ready at all times. The moment the dragon turtle entered the city wall, it had no other units to cover it, thus giving the demolition team a precious time difference with the heavy hammer dragon turtle.

Tomorrow Leader deployed optical magic with a range of two hundred meters, and deployed it on several observation and suppression sites around the city in an absolutely geometric manner. Burn the battlefield situation directly into the light and shadow.

And everyone can now see this light and shadow map, in which more than twenty points are marked dragon turtles. Eryuan clearly calculated the firepower projection of each department according to the angle, so that each department could know the work progress of itself and its friendly forces.

The magic uses "scalar" and "universal" characteristics, which makes it difficult for the wizards of the kingdom to comment, because this is a new thing that has never been seen before.

Why never? Because the use of this magic is not to destroy the attack, nor to increase the single status of the troops, but to communicate and command. In comparison, the kingdom's method of commanding troops through sound transmission and waving flags is a whole generation behind.

Narrator: In the military field, in order to sell equipment, many military powers have developed many weapons that are not backward in terms of "firepower" and "mobility", but the key point of military innovation that has been ignored is system communication.

It can be said that in the Tomorrow Territory, even if the soldiers are the most basic archers and do not have ice or fire weapon enchantments, the standardized communication of the Tomorrow Territory can command the archers to quickly and flexibly lock the target and continuously shoot at the opponent's weak points. , defeat the opponent by dispatching firepower.

Sirolina held her breath when she saw Eryuan's face in the light screen. Only by fighting side by side like this did she truly feel how talented this man was in military command.

In the view of Sirolina, a mage with a noble vision: anticipate the enemy's opportunities in everything, use all available conditions to perfection, and excellent generals can offset the weakness of their own troops through command...

On the periphery, the Nagas continued. Although the murlocs had been trapped many times, due to the series of traps, each trap was different, so they kept stepping on it.

And at the beginning, the commander of Naga led troops who were all servants, and they were all servants every time they stepped into a pit. And this kind of pain without unforgettable pain was always reckless until death.

The Nagas saw that the giant dragon turtle had half of its body entered the second city wall. As if he once saw the dawn of victory, he began to put the last chips on the slope of Dragon Turtle.

These twisting Nagas began to cast magic, covering the entire wall's barbs with ice in preparation for climbing. But what they didn't know was that at this time, simple missiles with a range of only twenty to thirty meters were in the inner wall. The ejector was tightened by the operator, and a cursor pointer and angle data appeared in front of the human commander.

With the bricks and tiles of the city wall crumbling.

The Tomorrow Territory soldiers who wore earphones to receive the sound transmission quickly cut off the ropes, then dropped the heavy objects that had been prepared for a long time next to them, and smashed the throwing objects padded on the board.

There is only a wall between them, and this wall is about to be chewed into pieces by the dragon turtle's head.

The fuel barrels flying out from the wall landed very accurately, causing the six Nagas on the back of the dragon turtle to ignite a fire that could not be extinguished.

The viscous burning block mixed with aluminum powder made the fire quite penetrating, the temperature reached thousands of degrees, and tomorrow's leader mages faced the flames and released the "deflagration technique". Jets shot out from the halo in the hand.

The nature of these jets is industrially produced high oxygen salt.

Its chemical phase can carry much more oxygen atoms than the earth's high-oxygen salts. Even though the tortoise shell is very thick, in just one minute, the heat passes through the tortoise shell and is transferred to the back of the giant tortoise, directly burning through it.

Although the violent sparks were not big, they were extremely penetrating. Naga, who had just been exposed to a little spark, didn't care at first, thinking that he had enough resistance, but he rolled down in pain after a while.

The giant siege turtle, who was under intensive care, endured the pain in his skin and flesh, but could not bear the heat that burned his abdomen. He no longer bit the city wall bit by bit, and painfully dug into the city wall, trying to let the earth and stone cover of the city wall extinguish the flames on his body.

The human soldiers who were waiting to break the wall on the other side of the city wall suddenly retreated when they saw the turtle shell coming out.

But then I found that the turtle body was stuck out because I drilled it too quickly. Then I picked up the prepared blasting tube and started "tearing apart the giant beast with my bare hands."

With a roar, the giant turtle was directly penetrated by the anti-tank energy-containing metal jet through the biological shell.

The entire giant turtle's head spurted out a brain fountain from bottom to top, and the body that had penetrated the city wall was even embedded in the city wall, directly becoming a part of the city wall.

After the Nagas outside the wall put out the negative burn on their bodies, they returned to the battlefield and saw the giant turtle stuck motionless in the city wall. They were confused, and then the human race had their hands free on the city wall and began to aim the cold crossbow arrows at them.

Clearly, Naga's tactics failed.

In the laws of war: When a siege unit is attacking a city, the covering troops must stay with the siege unit no matter how heavy the casualties are.

The Nagas do not have this awareness. As a result, all previous efforts were in vain.

The humans greeted Naga's retreat with dense clusters of frost arrows, re-stabilized the second line of defense, and carried out artillery fire on the plague-infected sea tribesmen in the first line of defense.

Stone pellets hit the ground one after another, and the blooming stone fragments always brought out large areas of flesh and blood. Since the Nagas had charged three times and their morale was exhausted, they felt like human gunpowder was being covered by endless shells.

The Naga commander, at this time, did not know that the dragon turtle was stuck in the wall and had died.

She commands Sky Manta to continuously dispel the plague state from heavy units such as Royal Guards.

After being driven away from the plague state by the manta rays, the skin of these Nagas began to burst like psoriasis-like blood blisters, and then became scarred with thick calluses.

But then, as the stone cannonballs cut through these calluses, the algae in the rain invaded again, and once again infected the Nagas with a plague state, which had to be dispersed again.

There are a total of forty manta rays in the Naga sky. These magical flying fish continuously release dispersal spells to clean up the itching on the Nagas who are fighting bath bacteria below, but the precious battlefield magic power is being depleted little by little.

After confirming all the losses of the Dragon Turtles, the Sea Clan's air force was already facing the human race's redirection of ice arrows.

But these magic flying fish cannot leave. They cover the retreat of the royal guards. After all, it takes two hundred years for a royal guard to be successfully cultivated from hatching. It is very rare and cannot be tolerated to be completely lost here.

These manta rays were fired upon by five rows of ice crossbow guns. The white ice trails, like gorgeous line rain, penetrated these fragile marine flying creatures.

The manta ray's flesh membrane has no armor, and the sky is filled with ice arrows. .

The stinger fired from the tail of the manta ray retaliated, injuring three soldiers in the human firing line, but they were quickly treated.

...Two days later, Naga launched the last attack, but encountered a phalanx of human infantry coming out of the city to fight...

Finally, under the powerful firepower of the human race, the three Naga mages released an electric storm to isolate the battlefield. Under this powerful spell, frost quickly hung on the city walls. The human soldiers seemed to be half suppressed by firepower and had to climb down and cover themselves with magic cloaks (to increase magic resistance).

The Nagas seized this opportunity and withdrew.

However, it fell into the strategy of encircling three and missing one set by the staff (called "leaving a mouth to drain the river" in Xia Sheng culture, which means leaving a small opening when encircling the river with a dam), in order to quickly eliminate other Nagas within the city wall. A compromise made by the Legion.

As the Naga elites withdrew, the morale of the remaining sea tribe collapsed and began to flee.

In the narrow groove area, in order to avoid the direct fire of the human race, there was a stampede.

The tidal monsters smashed open the city wall with hoes and began to wave around. Many sea tribesmen died directly at the hands of these giant turtles.

At this time, the artillery was busy replacing it with a heavy warhead that could shoot curved trajectories.

Lao Zhao faced the large group of sea people and took careful aim.

With a round of volleys, the shelter in the groove turned into a flesh and blood mill. The rock shells were like a pestle for smashing crabs. One shot mixed all kinds of strange corpses together. The sea tribe no longer had any hierarchy. Both the gorgon and the lowly murloc all died together.

And those who evacuated, the Naga Emperor guards had a hard time on their way to escape.

The small sled troop sent out by Eyuan quickly circled back and sprinkled caltrops. These caltrops are specially made stainless steel tetrahedrons, with curved spikes appearing on each surface. Like cockleburs, they are difficult to pull out.

Naga left very uneasily. There were bloodstains all over the place on the way to escape.

Throughout the next rainy season, only a dozen autumn winds were blowing around, sending small murlocs to test how many stone cannonballs the humans had. Eyuan kept firing to tell the murlocs: I still have a lot of cannonballs.

This war was fought on various fronts by the Xia Sheng time travellers, but at this time in the kingdom circle, victory belonged to the lord Eryuan - Eryuan once again won the victory as a legend.

Three days after the defensive battle ended, Sirolina also led the team to leave. The rainy season had ended, and the situation on the entire human front could shift from defense to offense.

Before leaving, she seemed to want to do something when she came to the room where Eyuan stayed, but Eyuan only gave her some magic materials at the public farewell party as a reward for her coming to support, completing the courtesy exchange between people), Just go back to the headquarters to control the situation.

No one cared about Sirolina's mood. Xia Sheng's group of time-travelers began to review the situation after the war, arguing about the pros and cons in a very violent tone.
