MTL - Law of the Devil-Chapter 594 【collapse! 】
The 554th chapter [crash! 】
At noon, the Eastern Fortress’s garrison responded quickly. The Imperial Army of the two divisions flew out of the city and came to the bank of the river. Then the small fleet stationed on the waterfront pier in the city immediately passed through the channel. The pier came to the river bank.
Whether it is doubts or surprises. But the unquestionable fact in front of us is that those barbaric races actually want to attack the eastern fortress in a big way! They... want to force the river? !
Just after noon, the battle started immediately. On the charge, the two squadrons of the death squad orcs have been smashing the cover of the human archers on the other side, rushing up with huge pieces of wood, trying to build a pontoon on the river.
The orcs were naked, and they even gave up their armor in order to move their movements. Instead, they only held a large wooden board to stop the arrows while they were running.
On the south bank of the river, human archers lined up on the riverside, and they volleyed round and round, trying to prevent the other side from setting up a pontoon on the other side. The arrows were flying like worms on the other side of the river. On the north shore, there were arrows everywhere on the ground. The orc death squad, running on a wooden board, worked under the intensive arrow rain. From time to time, the orcs were shot by arrows and made a few screams. One of the furry feet was trampled back and forth on the river bank, and the black soil on the ground was gradually stained with blood.
After an hour, the orcs paid hundreds of casualties and finally built a simple bridge pier about ten meters wide on the other side.
At this time, the archers on the other side have begun to retreat. The commander of the human army is the deputy of General Rostock, the deputy head of the Storm Corps, and the supreme commander of the Eastern Fortress Dominguez.
now. The 46-year-old general himself personally carried the sniper on the south bank with the troops of the two divisions, and backed by the eastern fortress, the heavy engineering soldiers were nervously carrying out the large ordnance in the city, a slinger It was also pushed to the shore and began to slam against the other side of the river.
Subsequently, the empire's warships also drove up to the river, and eight empire sea spirit-class warships lined up on the river. Closely connected, using a ship's rifle to shoot at the orcs on the north shore.
With the addition of warships, the loss of the orcs was greatly increased. In less than half an hour, the animal squadron on the north bank shoal almost covered the shoal, and the sailors on the ship picked up the bow and fired at the north bank.
In the battle, humans once prevailed.
The pier that the orcs built on the north bank. It was once twice smashed by a slinger, but these orcs seemed to be iron-hearted to cross the river here. After two collapses, they ignored the death and injury and sent a large number of death squads to rebuild. The shoals are full of dead bodies, broken arrows, and wood spilled on the ground.
Seeing that the human warship blocked the river, General Dominguez was full of doubts... Look at this situation. It is impossible for the enemy to cross the river here... Are they deliberately sent to die?
From the point of view of the enemy, the orc army on the other side of the bank is afraid of at least another 100,000. It has sent so many troops, apparently it is here to attack.
On the battleship, the sailors fired guns insanely, watching the orcs on the other side keep falling down, and the huge arrows shot. With strong penetrating power, it is often possible to shoot three or five orcs at the same time, just like a bunch of candied haws.
The sailors screamed in excitement, watching the enemies on the other side fall down in rows under the invincible battleship of the Empire, and the bows and arrows in their hands were also struggling to shoot. Many soldiers were even too excited and excited. Even the thumb of the bow was cut into blood.
The orcs still don't give up. The pier was firmly nailed to the north bank under the impact of thousands of orc warriors almost crazy suicide. Numerous woods have been reinforced and swayed by humans.
And this time. Dominguez has sent people to the city to mobilize the Air Force.
In the city of the Eastern Fortress, a large group of about 150 bombing airships was stationed. At this time, the orc army on the other side of the army was on the verge of pressure. General Dominguez immediately remembered the benefits of the airship. The queues of these orcs were so dense, and they were On the flat and open field, when is it not bombing, when will it wait?
The war continued until the afternoon, and it seemed that the orcs were not at all cheap. The human soldiers were caught in an atmosphere of extreme fanaticism and joy. For most people, most of these orcs were broken and ran here. Come stupid to die.
But at this time, the situation is abrupt!
Above the river, the eight empire sea spirit-class warships were originally lined up, but although the river was used by the empire before the war to spend a lot of manpower and resources to open a few times wider, but after all, these warships were originally Naval battleship. The huge warships, which were driven on this river, were somewhat reluctant. Therefore, since the beginning of the war, the largest sea gods of the empire and the warships of the Neptune class have never entered the river. Only these small and medium-sized sea spirit class ships of the Imperial Navy can Even if you are driving on the river, the eight sea-goal-class ships are lined up on the river and seem to be slightly crowded.
The fleet was tightly crowded together, almost end to end, and the battleship fired all the way to the north shore, but did not know, the disaster has come! !
The accident happened in an extremely sudden situation!
The fleet of ships is lined up in the penultimate position. The commanding fleet commander is an empire's naval veteran who has participated in two Nanyang expeditions. Just in the frenzied atmosphere of the sailors on the boat, suddenly, I heard a dull bang from the water!
boom! !
The sound was like a heavy hammer on a wooden board, and then the hull immediately shook a few times. Before the crowd reacted, the warship was tilted sharply toward the left side!
Then, I heard the sound of underwater collisions, and the terrible sound of cracked wooden boards. After the hull was tilted, the sailors on the boat shouted and panicked, and many people fell into the water, and this time. Someone has panicked and reported that the cabin below the waterline has been smashed!
"Below! They are underwater!!"
The captain immediately issued an order, and the sailors picked up their bows and arrows and strove to shoot underwater, but the bow and arrow lost most of their power across the water. Some sailors also set up guns and slammed in the direction of the water.
The water war of this era lacks the ability to counterattack underwater. And some brave sailors. After getting the command of the sergeant, I had no time to undress, grabbed a short knife and bite it in my mouth, and I rushed into the river and sneaked into the water.
Rows of sailors fought bravely into the water, and the scene seemed to be in a moment of silence. The hull is still tilted, but the underwater collision sound seems to stop. Many people flocked to the side of the boat and looked down.
However, those who bite the knife and jumped down the sailors, but after they went down, they did not emerge.
After a while, someone exclaimed. Between the waters, a string of bright red blood came up from below, just like the blooming red safflower in the water!
Then, the bubbles on the water were everywhere. The people on board were caught in a strange tension.
More brave sailors, took off their boots, bite a short knife in the mouth, and jumped into the water...
Then, suddenly, there was a loud crash in the water, and you saw a sudden splash of water from the river! Among the flowers, there are countless blood. The gushing up is also mixed with some horrible broken arms and broken bodies! !
Under a scream, the underwater hull made a sigh of screams. The sailors who had been struggling to block the damage in the cabin, did not have time to escape, and they screamed in a roar, watching the hull suddenly break open!
The icy river rushed in, and suddenly the squadron under the cabin was annihilated.
Then the hull broke open from the middle and the bow immediately rose high. The sailors and officers standing at the bow of the ship were in the water of the call sign.
at this time. Finally, the underwater enemies exposed their face. A few shrouded fur, faint with a faint flesh-colored giant monster, emerged from the water, the big head, **** mouth, with roar.
There are more than a dozen of these monsters, each of which is at least five meters away. It is among the orcs, who are good at water-based hippo orcs.
These hippo orcs, born with huge bodies and powerful horror, sneaked into the water, and each hippo orc caught a huge hammer in his hand!
The flagship of the human fleet, suddenly under the sniper of several hippo orcs, broke!
The sudden collapse of the flagship immediately caused the entire fleet to panic, and the fleet’s landings had not come and issued the final orders. The hippo orcs are still lurking in the water, arbitrarily killing the human sailors who have fallen into the water.
Although these sailors are excellent sailors who have fought in the sea and the waves, the water quality of human beings is no better than this natural underwater race. Together with the huge body of the hippo orcs, the brutal force, the underwater sailors quickly died, one by one and even swallowed by the hippopotamus.
This is precisely the strategy of the sinners. On the North Shore, a large number of orcs were deliberately sent to build a pontoon and attacked, and the human fleet was attracted to the water. The hippo orcs quietly launched from the upper reaches, slid down the river, lurking in the water, ambushing the human fleet.
The human warships reacted immediately after being attacked. On top of a warship, the brave sailors did not fear the underwater monsters, and even some military martial arts officers took the lead and took off their clothes. The short knife jumped into the water.
However, above the water surface, a soldier with a broken human warrior emerged constantly. For a time, the wide river surface was full of blood!
The war is still going on. The human warships have been attacked one by one. After the Navy’s soldiers have paid a lot of casualties, they finally helplessly recognize the fact that they have no way to attack these monsters underwater. After the sinking, a warship was quickly sunk.
Subsequently, the fleet began to send out a banner: retreat!
It is completely meaningless to stay on the river, and only let the soldiers die in vain.
But at this time, they want to retire, they can't do it!
After all, the river is still a little narrow. The fleet is lined up in the river, densely formed, crowded together. At this time, I want to retreat, but in the chaos, I can't even make a U-turn! Several large ships were crowded together, and even accidents collided with each other, and the hippopotamus orcs swallowed the life of the sailors madly underwater, and some hippopotamus orcs murdered the temper and floated out of the water, trying to attack the humans on the deck. However, this kind of hot-headed behavior finally brought casualties to the hippo orcs.
If they are underwater, human warships naturally have nothing to do, but once they surfaced, the sailors immediately picked up their bows and arrows and even smashed them to fight back.
Although the hippo orcs were thick and thick, they could not withstand the attack of the cannon. Under a few roars, several hippo orcs were shot by the cannon and crashed into the water and sank.
On the river, in the midst of chaos, the human warships are crowded together one by one, and they want to enter and not want to retreat. The sinking of the flagship brought chaos to the command, and the river was not only narrow, but even the depth of the water was far from being comparable to the sea!
Even some damaged warships sank a little while, and the remaining half still floated on the water, but it just blocked the river!
