Chapter 442 The inexplicable night
"Report to the sir! The Second Battalion sent an urgent report, the immortal ten thousand troops were too fierce, and now they had to give up the city hall!"
"Report to the sir! The crusaders who have defended the A-district of the Mage Avenue are now stepping up defenses and construction of fortifications!"
"Report to the sir! The third row sent an urgent report. An unknown number of immortal troops are attacking the Black Gold Bank. The current casualty rate of the entire row has reached 30%. Please support!"
"Report to the Chief..."
On the flagship of the Scarlet Legion's airship formation, Phil, who was as motionless as a statue, quietly listened to the messages coming from the correspondent, and his eyes ended from beginning to end, never leaving the big screen ahead.
On the screen, the Scarlet Legion and the Angel Front had initially formed a stable front, but with a huge black arrow suddenly inserted into the south, the entire front was suddenly messed up in an instant. For example, one company had just captured a stronghold, but another company stronghold was suddenly taken away by the enemy. One platoon defeated a group of enemies, and then was repelled by another group of enemies...
Such things not only made command and dispatch extremely difficult, but the originally low casualties also began to increase dramatically. On average, more than ten casualties per minute were more than ten people per minute. Even Phil, who was as strong as iron, was a little difficult to accept, but he had no choice because Mu arrived too suddenly. Even when he knew about this, the troops below had already had anger with the other party.
“It’s really hard to deal with…”
Shaking his head gently, Phil felt a little more and more dilemma.
Although the Scarlet Legion now theoretically occupies most of the urban areas, the actual control area is only the East City and part of the North City. The power of the West City has been basically pushed out by the church. The North City is also in a tug-of-war. Needless to say, the South City District is, most of the live forces of the Scarlet Legion began to withdraw quickly after the first round of bombing. The original plan of quick battle and quick decision eventually evolved into endless positional wars. The forces of the three parties constantly penetrated each other at the forefront, but they could never completely gain an advantage.
Moreover, due to the large attack force before, the ammunition and energy consumption of the airship troops was extremely huge, which made them dare not risk the risk of the enemy airship launching an attack to support the troops on the ground. Fortunately, the Church and Mu seemed to be quite afraid of the airships of the other two sides and were only monitoring them far away from the front. Therefore, the main competition for air superiority now depends on their respective flight units.
"How is the situation in the special air combat camp?"
"this……"
Phil's sudden words made the mages in front of each console a mess. After a long time, a necromancer raised his head and said:
"Sky Eyes are damaged more severely, so they may not be able to connect to all troops."
"connect."
"yes."
Soon, a somewhat blurry picture was displayed on the screen... The flying holy light, crossbow arrows, spear throws and the wails and screams that sounded from time to time, all showed how tragic the battles that took place there were at this time.
As the picture gradually became clear, everyone finally saw the main characters on the battlefield, the flexible-action Troubleman, the griffin knight in heavy armor, and the huge double-legged dragon knight, which were also a tripartite melee, and since the air was a three-dimensional battlefield, it was even more chaotic than the ground.
"Raphael, can you hear it?"
"Yes! Sir, hear, hear!"
The picture quickly turned to a bat demon wearing brown light armor, more than three meters tall, with a pair of huge flesh wings as powerful as a banana fan.
Obviously, he is the commander of this unit.
“How is the situation.”
"Sir! The situation is very bad now!"
After suddenly tilting to the right, he avoided the spear of a griffin knight, the bat demon named Raphael immediately raised his hand and made a round of crossbow arrows.
Suddenly, the griffin knight fell to the ground with the griffin under his seat.
"...The troops suffered heavy casualties, especially the first and third companies. Not only did they lose more than half of their personnel, but the company commanders of the two companies were killed. Now the deputy company commander is replaced, and the ammunition is also severely scarce..."
Speaking of this, Raphael suddenly saw a dragon cavalry suddenly dive from the right side towards one of his subordinates, and immediately raised the crossbow to shoot, but he suddenly found that his crossbow arrows had been used up. Before he could remind him, the demon man was pierced by a long rifle like a barbecue. The huge impact force even knocked out part of his internal organs.
"Damn it! Go and die!"
With a roar, Raphael immediately pulled out a dagger from his belt and threw it hard at the lizard knight who was strung against the demon.
"Ga!"
In an instant, the lizard knight, caught off guard, screamed and fell into the flying dragon.
"Hanson! Give me two more magazines!"
"Battery Commander, these are the last two magazines! If you finish the fight... you really have to fight with bare hands!"
After taking the two magazines thrown by the side, Raphael immediately skillfully prepared new magazines for the crossbow, and then continued to say to Phil:
"Sir! Although it is difficult, we are still confident to repel the enemy. We just hope that the ammunition will be replenished quickly."
In the picture, every girth demon is fighting desperately with the enemy. Many girth demons use their claws, fists, teeth, and everything they can use to continue fighting. Although such a fighting style will cause great casualties in this war filled with magic weapons, it is precisely because of such momentum and fighting spirit that the Fengt demons, who have always been at a disadvantage, can barely fight with the other two sides evenly.
"Well, I'll let the Gargoyle Reserve bring the ammunition over in a while."
"Thank you for your understanding...well!"
Suddenly, just as he was speaking, a long sword suddenly slashed heavily from behind Raphael on his left shoulder. It was a griffin knight.
"asshole!"
However, Raphael, who had rich combat experience, did not panic, but quickly grabbed the sword with his right hand, then pulled it forward suddenly, and at the same time, his left elbow hit the back.
"ah!"
In an instant, the facial baffle of the griffin knight's helmet was knocked out into a deep depression, and he screamed and let go of his hand holding the long sword, covering his face that was beginning to flow out of blood.
"Go to die!"
But Raphael just threw the sword at him gently, and the knight was penetrated from behind, and his whole body slid silently from the griffin.
"Sir, then I'll die first. We will definitely not let the enemy seize air supremacy!"
"Um."
After the screen disappeared, Phil still maintained the slightly raised head, as if he was thinking about something, but it seemed that he was just simply stiff.
"Report to the Chief! The latest emergency telegram sent by the military headquarters!"
"read."
"At any cost, even if you lose the city of learning, you must seize the palace before the dusk!"
Hearing this order, Phil, who had always been similar to the demon puppet, couldn't help but feel slightly moved. He slowly turned around, walked to the correspondent step by step, and then took the thin order.
"Shrine? Oracle?"
Looking at the four very conspicuous black characters on the white paper, Phil let out a low voice of doubt, but soon he pinched the white paper into a ball and gently threw it into the trash can ten meters away.
"Order the entire army to turn to the palace except the First Battalion and the Third Battalion."
"Sir, look!"
Just as Phil gave the order, a necromancer suddenly stood up and pointed to the screen. Phil looked in the direction he pointed.
“Come in.”
Through the Eye of Sky, Phil clearly saw that a thick stream of smoke suddenly rose from the West City Gate, which was originally confined, and then the entire wall began to collapse slowly. Before all the dust could settle, a black torrent quickly surged out of the smoke. They were the Death Knights of the Helez Republic team.
"Phil, you have received the order from the military headquarters."
Suddenly, Gansimona appeared in the screen. When he heard his words, Phil did not respond, but just nodded slightly.
"Very good. The Scarlet Legion concentrates all its efforts to capture the palace, and we will leave the city area to us."
"yes."
After the picture disappeared, Phil slowly walked to the glass hatch of the command room and turned his gaze to the east. A thick stream of smoke began to rise from the end of the street. At the same time, a white iron stream began to surge out from the end of the street.
"It was such an inexplicable night..."
Not only Phil, this idea also lingers in the minds of many people at this time...
