Chapter 74 74 The Battle of Mariza

"bang! bang!" Facing the rushing giant dragon, an anti-aircraft gun The 30mm caliber high-level dual-purpose gun opened fire. The slender barrel spit out tongues of flame, causing the shell to rush towards its target.

The giant dragon, which was diving, sensed danger. It wanted to sideways to avoid the oncoming object, but found that there seemed to be more than one object. In just a split second, it felt like it was being hit by a huge impact.

"Roar!" The ancient and powerful creature let out a shriek, and then began to descend rapidly. A few dozen meters away from the city wall, the giant beast hit the ground and splashed a piece of dust.

"What are you kidding?" Ildo, who had already accelerated and dived down, stared wide-eyed to see the picture of his subordinate being shot down. The battle has just begun, why was a giant dragon shot down? ?

In previous battles, he also checked the giant dragon's wound. The opponent's weapon can crush dragon scales, which is not easy. Although it seemed that the dragon body was dripping with fresh blood, it did not receive any fatal injuries. After all, the defensive power of these ancient creatures is amazing, and they are not so easy to kill.

The injured giant dragon just happened to be hit by a bullet in the eye, and it fell from the sky. Therefore, Yierdo is still very confident about the defensive power of giant dragon. He feels that his troops can still be on their own, which is the theoretical basis for his offensive.

But now, these mortals have a way to kill the giant dragon so quickly, doesn't it mean that the Dragon Knight, which has been crushing mortals, has no advantage from this moment on. ?

You must know that Dragon Knight has been a very powerful super class from the moment it was born: they can move quickly, have the ability to avoid war against the sky, and can also attack from a long distance, attacking cities and The military has destructive power of terrifying.

When faced with such an army, mortals lack effective means of coping. Assemble troops and prepare a large number of heavy weapons, which can easily be bypassed by Dragon Knight and attack the city head-on. Without a large army, Dragon Knight can take advantage of the speed to defeat them separately.

It's a pity that this situation seems to be broken now. The opponent actually has a powerful weapon that can attack the air, something even more powerful than a single-shot ballista! After all, although the ballista is also very dangerous, the fire rate of that thing is very slow, and aiming has become the biggest problem.

It is impossible to fire continuously. Every time, the shooter needs to find the advance and fire. This kind of hit accuracy is very touching. As long as one misses, the giant dragon will have time to attack - this It is also the fundamental reason why mortals are so passive when facing the giant dragon.

Now, what kind of damned weapon is installed on the city wall of these mortals, which can knock down a giant dragon with one attack? Ildo, whose mind was full of doubts, was just stunned, and rushed to a place not far from the city wall.

"tú tú! tú tú!" The Mark Qin heavy machine gun, which was covering the anti-aircraft gun, opened fire. The Mark Qin heavy machine gun mounted on a tripod also had a very high elevation angle. When facing the giant dragon, The sustained combat capability of this weapon was demonstrated vividly and thoroughly.

A row of dense bullets smashed into a giant dragon that was ready to attack, and the dense bullets shattered the scales of the giant dragon's abdomen like a storm. Under the pain, the giant dragon began to flap its wings and climbed, and was forced to give up the opportunity to attack.

"tú tú! tú tú!" Next to the heavy machine gun that kept spitting out tongues of fire, the commander raised his head with a telescope, looked at the enemies with faces sinister, and gave a loud command: "Keep firing. Don't let those damned guys get close to the city wall!"

"Bah!" On the city wall, hundreds of Alanhill Grenadiers are also holding their rifles, desperately facing the Those terrifying giant dragons of heaven open fire. They know that this is their only hope of survival.

"Huh!" A giant dragon finally found the firepower gap, roared down from the sky, and spewed a huge flame towards the Alanhill Grenadiers on the city wall. In an instant, the City Wall section was covered with burning flames, and the soldiers above were also submerged in a fire sea.

"bang! bang! bang!" The anti-aircraft artillery position at the other end opened fire, and the huge shells flew into the sky, shattering the armor on the giant dragon, and digging into the flesh and blood of the giant dragon. Its stamina has not diminished, tearing up the giant dragon's muscles, smashing the giant dragon's internal organs, and penetrating the giant dragon's entire body.

The giant dragon that was still breathing flames on the city wall suddenly lost its strength, and its two fleshy wings struggled weakly in the sky, the whole body fell from the sky, and it still burned on the ground. Above the blazing city head.

With just one dragon's breath, about a platoon above the city head, dozens of soldiers turned to ashes, such an attack made all the soldiers at the head of the city set on fire even more frantically. There was only one single thought in their minds: don't let these damned guys get any chance of breathing fire.

Bourgeois, who was standing by the window, saw the flames falling from the sky. It was the first time he saw such a terrifying attack, and it really happened in front of him. He had only seen similar descriptions in books before, and his words were full of despair and pathos.

Now that he has witnessed this irresistible attack by human beings, Bourgeois finally understands where the deep-seated despair comes from. After facing such impossible opponents countless times, the humility of mortals has become something as it should be by rights.

Just when he prayed that his troops would not give the opponent any chance, another flame poured down and hit the city wall, leaving behind a thick smoke and a churning wall of fire.

"Damn! Fire! Shoot those bastards down!" Behind him, an officer clenched his fists, as if he wanted to use his thoughts to encourage the soldiers on the city wall not to back down , keep fighting.

"We don't need us here! Come with me!" Feeling that he should do something, Bourgeois finally made up his mind, turning around and preparing to walk out of his headquarters. .

His adjutant blocked the door, stopped his chief officer and said, "It won't help you if you go there, so stay here and command the overall situation!"

"Get out of the way! I have to let my soldiers see me! I want to stand with them!" Bourgeois pushed his hands away and walked out of the room and down the long stairs. All the officers around him followed out of the headquarters, and followed their chief officer to prepare to board the distant city head in the distance.

There, the anti-aircraft guns were defending the city behind them with their barrels raised, but a giant dragon rushed through the large net of fire and flew over the city. It swept from one side of the city and flew to the other side of the city, leaving a long line of flames where it passed, and all the houses it passed were destroyed.

But it didn't stay arrogant for too long, because on the other side of the city, the anti-aircraft guns that had been there for a long time opened fire immediately, welcoming the giant dragon that had crossed the city with a net of fire. After struggling for just a few seconds, the giant dragon crashed into the city, crashing into a house and turning into a corpse.

"If you keep fighting like this...you might lose..." Seeing that the opponent's firepower network had already killed 5 giant dragons, Ildo finally realized the seriousness of the problem. Although he succeeded in destroying a threatening anti-aircraft gun, there was no way to turn the situation around.

There are more than a dozen such anti-aircraft artillery positions, distributed on the city wall, and heavily protected by heavy machine guns and infantry - it is very difficult to destroy one, even more how such a threat still exists. There are as many as a dozen.

Although the huge defensive area scatters these damn anti-aircraft guns, because there are countless dense rifles and machine gun bullets, it is very dangerous for giant dragon to get close to the city and destroy it.

More Dragon Knights must be gathered! The situation in front of him is not something he can handle as a Knight Commander - at least a Great Knight Commander is needed, or, when General Morse catches up?

For the first time, Ildo had the idea of waiting for reinforcements, which made him shudder a little, because he was facing a mortal army, an army of mortals that he had dismissed before.

"Bang! peng~ peng~!" Another anti-aircraft gun was loaded and started pouring its own ammunition at the giant dragon in the sky. The dense ammunition cut through the air and hit a giant dragon that was circling looking for an opportunity, directly knocking the giant dragon down.

Over time, those anti-aircraft gun shooters learned some rules. Their shooting became more accurate, and Dragon Knight's losses began to surge - Ildo's Dragon Knight had a total of four squads of 20 people, and now after some battles, there are less than ten giant dragons left to fight. .

Because when he attacked the 1st Battalion of the 16th Regiment, he also lost a few Dragon Knights, but those Dragon Knights were injured and could not continue to participate in the battle, which was better than the directly shot down Dragon Knights in front of him.

The Dragon Knight that was lost in front of him was really lost, especially the unlucky guy who fell into the city. Even if he is still alive, he has no possibility of rescue at all.

Soon, the 7th giant dragon lost its wings and fell from in the sky screaming, and the entire Dragon Knight force lost the courage to attack - they even gave up circling, One by one soars farther in the sky, but is reluctant to leave for a long time.

This is their first defeat in the face of a mortal country since their birth. After heavy losses, they did not destroy the city in front of them. Ildo was reluctant to order a retreat, but there was no good way to do it. He could only grit his teeth and plan the next plan in the sky.
