There were more than a hundred war beasts attacking the island this time, but the most precious war crab was only a little over 30.

After all, this kind of creature is really powerful, but the corresponding breeding cost is also terribly high, even the large-scale biological weapon breeding in the large Sahua murloc country that occupies hundreds of kilometers. Between 100 and 150, no matter how much it is, I can't afford it.

For example, this is the case in the kingdom where the Sahua Murloc Prince who attacked the land this time, and there are only one hundred thirty and forty such monsters on weekdays. Except for the 50 that originally belonged to the kingdom's territories, the rest are basically distributed in the hands of the kingdom's various Shahua murloc nobles.

In this battle of king selection, these nobles have chosen their optimistic princes to bet and followed them to participate in this war.

Naturally, those nobles also brought their powerful legions when they participated in the war. Because at the end of the war, a very important basis for dividing the spoils is the amount of effort they have contributed in the war. For them, it is definitely useless for them to gain the merits of the dragon and not want to pay.

Because of the old king's methods, the three princes had similar powers. Therefore, there are only more than 30 war Cancers that each of them can set off. Under such circumstances, the princes will naturally adopt some other tactics in order to have a stronger army, such as summoning other sea monsters as assistance.

Under such circumstances, the only war Cancers will naturally be concentrated on the frontal battlefield facing the port area to try to make a breakthrough. And because the peninsula they are stationed on is not the core of the enemy's attack, there is naturally no war Cancer here. The core force that came to attack the peninsula was more than 20 other behemoths and some of the extraordinary murlocs.

Because almost all the professional officers of the murlocs in Sahua have been transferred to the frontal battlefield to launch a general offensive, the murlocs here are tactically clumsy. At the very beginning, there was a problem of out of touch with the troops. As a result, Safir accurately seized the opportunity to eliminate a whole group of Sahua murlocs who were too advanced.

And the next group of giant monsters did not end well. When they approached five or six hundred meters from the beach, the artillery on the turret suddenly fired and directly hit the sea monsters that were still slowly moving.

Although these sea monsters also have a certain degree of defensive power, they are far different from those war crabs that are purely biological weapons. So he was hit by those shells and collapsed on the sea without moving.

But the strange thing is that even if these giant beasts are killed one after another, but the Sahua fish people still continuously charge like a beach, and at the same time, the spellcasters among the Sahua fish people and those with certain long-range abilities Extraordinary people continuously release magic and throw javelins.

In this case, even if everyone has trenches as cover, the priests and precision shooters are also trying to desperately counter the opponent's attack, but the attackers in some areas are still suppressed by long-range firepower.

After all, in the face of magic or the long-range weapons thrown by the transcendents, most of the ordinary defenses are not very effective. For example, many sandbags and timber piled up fortifications were mostly destroyed by such a long-range attack, and many firepower points naturally fell silent.

Compared with the sea monsters with specially targeted weapons, the transcendents among the murlocs are the toughest enemies facing on the current position. Because they not only have small targets, but also move quickly. Therefore, the human side on the battlefield has no good way for these guys other than sending out extraordinary people to fight the fire.

Fortunately, when the battle broke out, this group of fishers caused some problems with the command to make the group of extraordinary people rush forward and send a wave of heads, so the extraordinary people on the peninsula can still block those attacks. The extraordinary ones in the group also prevented the group of extraordinary ones from rushing into the battlefield.

But even so, some sporadic Sahua murlocs will still break into the battlefield. Fortunately, these transcendents who can break through are almost all Sahua murloc warriors with very low transcendent levels. Therefore, the heavy armored Tauren squad that were left behind will still kill them with the help of the scavenger precision shooter or Drive out the trenches.

But in this way, the firepower on this position was naturally affected. Then those Sahua murlocs that have landed will seize the loopholes in these defensive circles and swarm forward. In some places, the defenders can still hold their positions at the reaction level, and in other places to avoid large-scale casualties, the soldiers can only fight and retreat to the next level of trenches.

The trenches previously designed by Lawrence on this mountain are not the same as the normal trenches of this era. It is not just a thin trench connecting various firepower points, but a complex set of layers of trenches, traps and fortifications. Defense system.

If someone overlooks the entire defensive position from the air at this time, they will find that almost all of the peninsula is moored, tunnels and a series of fortifications are connected together, looking like a dense spider web.

Such a defense system naturally cannot collapse the entire line of defense just because it was breached by one opening. After the murlocs swarmed into the breach, they discovered that because of the twists and turns of the trench, there was a large number of breast walls in the middle. They can't assault along the trenches to both sides as expected.

What’s worse for this group of murlocs is that the army stationed here before retreats actively, so it still maintains the original structure and retreats to the back of the next fortification, and floods the invading murloc troops from both wings. Firepower. Even because it was a side attack, the damage to the fish people was even stronger.

"Damn it, what's going on?" A four-armed Sahua murloc noble who led this assault team looked at the comrades around him who fell down with a look of astonishment on his face, as a Sahua murloc. The elite officer of the kingdom, he had participated in many wars against land creatures before, but he had never seen such strange fortifications.

In his impression, as long as he rushed into the trenches dug by the terrestrial creatures, he would be considered a victory. Next is the question of how many enemies can be chased and killed in the opponent's escape. But he never thought that after I broke through a line of defense, his side looked like the one who fell into the trap.

"Although the defensive system set up by the Earl is different from everything we have seen before, it seems to be very effective now~www.ltnovel.com~A staff officer who stood on the top of the mountain and observed the overall battlefield situation faced him. The comrades of arms said, "With the help of such defensive positions, we can even turn those breakthrough points into traps to kill the enemy. "

"Of course, our earl is not one of those impossibly weak court nobles!" Another staff officer observed the fierce battle formation below with a binoculars and said, "If there is no accident, we will definitely be able to hold on. I don't know Lord Earl. What are you doing now—"

"Aren't you worried about our position on the peninsula now?" Nora also asked Lawrence through the soul connection while the two staff officers were discussing matters related to their earl. "I think the fighting over there seems to be very fierce, and the front has already begun to deepen in some places."

"Don't worry, the fighting has just begun when these stinky fish and shrimps get deep into the battlefield." Lawrence smiled and said to the doll, "This is a combination of the fortification experience of the Western Front of the First World War and the Korean battlefield. , It’s definitely not a common simple line of defense that will completely collapse with just a little breakthrough."
