Power and Empire Chapter 1190: Counter-attack Ballas (Part 2)
October 11th
ìIn the evening,
The Battle of Ballas Fortress, which attracted the attention of the entire continent, kicked off. The battle between the 100,000 Falcon Army and the strongest super fortress on the continent was unexpected from the very beginning. The Falcon Army Under the fortress city of Balas, a defensive formation that made all military scientists of later generations feel unimaginable was placed, m
80 years later, the imperial historian Bolas Otto’s "Legend of the Empire" wrote, "Just as the fortress guards laughed at it, the roar that shook the earth made everyone become The face is pale, and the setting sun is like blood on the earth, with the huge fire that gushes out,
The dry weeds and cracked sand on the ground began to vibrate, a white line with a violent whistling, once again across the sky in the eyes of everyone, like a sharp blade suddenly drawn by the falcon, fiercely Cut on the rocky wall of Ballas. . . . . . . "
"Cough cough, hurry up, clean the barrel immediately! The next door is ready" Next to the Siege Thor who just sent her, the pungent white smoke was filled, and the Commander Dylans Cousse was rolled up and choked with inflammation. Coughing violently, but he still tried his best to shout loudly,
Following his shout, the muzzle of the second siege Thor slowly lifted, and the huge muzzle of Hei Sè aimed at the fortress mountain in the distance. At that moment, it seemed that even the light was attracted to it.
"Reload!"
The huge artillery shell was lifted up by the three soldiers and sent into the barrel. When the heavy thunderbolt slowly slid into the barrel with the peculiar sound of steel friction, when the heavy ground artillery bolt was firmly tied to the ground At that time, everyone’s blood boiled violently
"Get ready!" Dylan Scousse stood up straight and raised his hand. A two-word "fa shè!" popped out of my teeth with difficulty.
"Boom" The huge ears yù deaf roar made the Thor, who was responsible for sending shè, instinctively covered his ears with his hands, and Dylanscusay was shocked a few meters away, feeling all the ears The sound disappeared, only Enen’s tinnitus, the power of the siege Thor Cannon was so powerful that even the Falcons themselves could not stand it. Although it was the second shot, there were still many soldiers in the front line. , Under the sound of a thunderbolt in this sunny day, Zhen's whole body trembled,
"It's terrible!" Many people couldn't help but stretch their tongues out. Watching a group of firelight drew a beautiful and cruel arc in the sky, and fell again toward the gap in the mountain. Rumble... broke out. There was a dazzling fire, and the place where it fell was instantly covered by gunpowder and black smoke. The Fortress of Balas, built on the mountain, seemed to have suffered a violent blow. Large and small stones continue to roll down from above. The earth is shaking and the mountains are shaking, like thunder from the sky. In an instant, a circle of destruction about 10 meters in diameter was formed at the location of the landing.
"This is..."
Standing at the top of the fortress, Earl Busey couldn't help but open his mouth wide, looking at everything in front of him in disbelief. The other generals behind him who had just been ridiculed and ridiculed just now were all stunned. It felt incredible. Oh my God. , What kind of weapon is this? How could it be so destructive? For a while, the entire city wall was still alive, and countless pairs of eyes were bulging looking at the exploded mountain
"My god! What is this?" There was a low voice on the wall, and the panicked crowd thought that the wall was crowded. When it was in chaos, the violent whistling sound was repeated. When it sounded, another white line drew a beautiful arc in the void, breaking through the void from a distance,
"Everyone get down!
this time. There was no need to shout, the Dorok soldiers instinctively covered their ears, and there were still many people trembling all over by the thunderous sound of the blue sky, their faces pale and almost fainted on the spot, a heavily armed infantryman. The siege shield that was caught off guard fell to the ground.
The huge sound of " rumbling" shook the mountain below, and the section of the Balas mountain body collapsed. Huge rocks fell from the blasted depression and rolled to the bottom of the mountain.
" Bastard, Vikia Falcon! "On the observation deck of the fortress, the commander-in-chief of the Ballas Front, Count Busy, walked back and forth like an ant on a hot pot, and his face was full of puzzlement and helplessness. Two loud noises in a row. The Falcon Army on the plain did not feel much, but the Earl Busey standing on the fortress was uncomfortable.
The earth shook, and the shaking from the mountain section was so clear that no one would have thought that the Falcon Army would be so shameless that they did not dare to attack directly and directly shook the foot of the fortress. As a commander who has guarded the fortress for many years, Count Bussy knows better than others that the attack of the Falcons has corrected the weakness of the Fortress of Balas.
Under this seemingly solid fortress, there are countless cavities and passages. There are people dug inside, and some are natural. If you compare the Fortress of Balas to a strong giant, the hollows and artificial digs in the mountains The exit channel is the blood vessel in this giant's body,
The natural holes spreading for more than ten miles are the blood of the Baras Fortress. Soldiers can enter the upper fortress through these passages, or they can launch shè attacks on the enemy in the segment. Once these blood vessels are torn and torn, they will bring It’s not just pain, but the entire fortress may collapse, and all the people on the fortress will be buried alive by the sinking hollow
" is really spectacular! If it’s night, it’s bound to be breathtaking. "On the plain below, a bad person riding a horse patted the whip lightly, and sighed irresponsibly. Caesar Sauron, the commander of the Northern Army, had a pale face,
It was the first time he saw the power of this new weapon of Siege Thor. It was thick enough to hold the huge muzzle of two adults. It needed a base frame for anchors. When shè, it was in the grass. The ground, sand and gravel seemed to dance, jumping up and then falling again after being shaken. Just like there are many invisible big hands, picking them up and putting them down, it seems like boiling water is dancing,
This terrible roar spread across the earth like a rolling thunder a few seconds later, and it didn’t calm down until several minutes later. The whole earth seemed to tremble fiercely at this moment, and the setting sun in the distance was completely lost. Brilliance
Such terrible power. What brings people is not only a sigh of forging skills, but also a cold and merciless sigh,
It is said that when attacking Lemming Fortress on Salander Island, it was such a weapon. With just one blow, it directly destroyed the fortified city wall known as Salander's first fortress, making all Salander Kyoto As long as the army hears Thor’s roar, he will never be able to resist any more,
At the beginning, Caesar Sauron regarded this as an exaggerated rumor by the Southern Army. Now it seems that even if it is exaggerated, it is not far from the truth. At least this thing is really powerful. After a few shots, almost half of the hillside was turned over, and the smoke dissipated, revealing the entire row of huge caves, like broken ribs turned out
rumbling...
The Thor shells continue to bombard roughly the same area. The place where the original cavity appeared, has now been blasted with an obvious gap. This gap is getting bigger and bigger, and eventually it has evolved into an irreparably large gap, the upper part of the gap The city wall was completely blown down. Hundreds of Dorok soldiers hiding in the hollow were instantly wiped out with the smoke of the shells.
"It's really choking, the Aaron people above will definitely no longer think that the Fortress of Balas is as solid as a mountain!"
Caesar Sauron narrowed his eyes and looked at the white smoke. A dazzling flame pierced the red hair's retina, illuminating the entire vast field in an instant like lightning. The gravel flew. The shock wave of the vibration rolled up a strong wind from the point of impact, and the fortress in the distance trembled in this ruining power, not to mention that the people standing on it were like shaken ants in a mess
I don’t know why, Caesar Sauron felt a bleak in his heart,
He could feel that it was the last death knell sounded on the continent of Ikadiva in the castle age that lasted for a thousand years! After this battle, no Ikadiva would think that things like city walls and fortresses could hinder the flying flag of His Majesty Falcon.
"What's wrong? But I think this thing is a bit too little?" The fat man seemed to feel something. Turn around and ask
"It's a bit small, there are only five doors. If you double it, I believe the mountain has collapsed at this moment!" Caesar Sauron quickly gathered his thoughts and said with regret,
"Five doors! This is the goal I set for them! "The fat man rolled his eyes and thought, and replied indifferently." Although the old fellow Lidarhill has blown the benefits of this thing to the sky. Me too. No plan to increase the number to 30 was agreed. Five of this kind of thing a year is enough! No matter how much it is, it is cumbersome! Even if it is used as a fortress cannon, only the storage of shells is a big problem!"
"Why?" Caesar Sauron gave the fat man a puzzled look. The temptation said, "If you change to another monarch, I am afraid that I can't wait to manufacture them in large quantities. But your majesty has only built 5 doors in a year. Compared with the number of the navy's light thunder gods, which can easily be hundreds of Let the army feel a bit lost!"
"Hehe, I know what you are thinking, I tell you clearly, this weapon is not suitable for Legion warfare!" The fat man heard what Caesar Sauron was saying, and raised the corner of his whip with a smile, and said, " Compared with warships that move on the sea, the army relies entirely on manpower. No matter how powerful a weapon is, what use is it if it is difficult to even move?"
"You are also a veteran, you should know that on the battlefield, speed and assault power are always the first!" The fat man pointed to the horse in the direction of the Siege Thor. Warhorse, the Siege of Thor is at a speed of 10 kilometers per hour at most. In order to transport these Thors from Paravin to here~IndoMTL.com~ It only took 1 day to be transported on the road, and this kind of attack The artillery shells of City Thunder are also specially made. The minimum is for workers of the level of master craftsman or above. The speed is slow and the construction limit is high. Five bullets a year are good!"
" The current number of the entire empire is only about 300 great craftsmen. Many of the great craftsmen are also the main supervisors of the Army Thor. They are all transferred to build this. The current Army’s Thor research and development It’s about to stop. "The fat man’s voice stopped, especially point out
" was originally made to deal with the fixed fortresses in front of us. The power is enough, but the speed is extremely slow. It is fast to shoot a shot in three minutes. Attacking these fortresses is very suitable. , But if this kind of thing is placed in a cluster field, facing the opponent's mobile force, especially the cavalry cluster, this gun is only about 30 meters in the range of the so-called powerful, at most it is just a laughing stock to make the enemy startle. Instead of spending too much energy and financial resources on this, it is better to make more Army Thors that are convenient for transportation and maneuverability, which is more practical."
"So, the Thor of the Army already has an eyebrow?"
Caesar Sauron’s face is faintly filled with joy, listening to your majesty Falcon’s implication, the development of the Army Thor seems to be almost completed,
Thinking that his Northern Army can also be equipped with Thor like the Central Army, his heart suddenly heated up,
The roar of ten thousand cannons, the ground shaking, and the ashes disappeared in smoke. Such a powerful weapon is an irresistible temptation for any general.
" Almost, according to the report, the experimental version has come out! "Fatty stared into the distance, saying meaningfully, "If everything goes well, at most two months, Thor can assemble troops!"
