The 484th chapter struggles (2)
"Okay, I get it, you go down." Danica waved her hand and said.
After Lina left, Danica asked, "What the hell is going on?"
From Danica's shadow, a little girl holding a doll came out. She was the head of the secret guard of the Gemini Kingdom, the ghost Bere, who had the most confidential information in the kingdom.
Beilei said carefully: "That's right. Recently, there were several accidents in the arsenal of the Aixue Chamber of Commerce, which was quite serious, which affected the production of some arms."
Danica frowned and said, "Luna is becoming less and less sensible in her work."
"This..." Berey said carefully, "Actually, Luna is not blamed for these accidents..." Because Berey possessed Luna for a while ago, this actually made their relationship closer. However, Berey only dared to say this. Seeing that Danica's face became gloomy, she quickly shut up.
Danica said: "I know that Luna is not blamed for the accident. Even with so many arsenals, it is inevitable that some accidents will occur, but what about the emergency treatment after the accident? Did Luna not make any backup plans?"
Beilei lowered her head and said nothing. As far as she knew, Luna did not make a backup plan, and even failed to adjust the production arrangements in time after the accident, resulting in the serious delay in the production of a batch of arms.
"What's wrong with Aishi recently?" Danica asked suddenly.
Beilei's whole body stiffened for a moment, but soon returned to normal. He said, "Miss Ai Xue is still locked in the Guards' dungeon, and his mental state is... his mental state is pretty good." The Guards' dungeon is not a good place. It's already very good to be locked up for so long and not go crazy. Compared to this, it shouldn't be anything, right?
"Okay, I get it." Danica said.
After hearing what the master said, Berey knew that the conversation had ended here, and he disappeared with tactfulness.
The information provided by Cores was quite reliable. Within ten days, Danica received an urgent report from the military that a large number of demons began to gather 100 kilometers south of the Thorin Fortress.
"Have you found out?" Danica asked Emily, who turned into a crow and stood on the coffee table.
Emily said, "I took a look at it and there were two or three million."
Taylan, who was also sitting on the sofa, said uneasy: "Can we stop the demon army of more than two million?" Taylan remembered that the hundreds of thousands of demons almost submerged the defense line of Thorin Fortress, and now the number of enemy troops has expanded several times.
"Don't worry, we can handle it." Phyllis comforted, the enemy was strong, but the power they could mobilize now was also incomparable.
"Does a pre-war meeting need to be held?" Tyran asked.
Danica thought for a while and said, "Forget it, no need. I have said everything I should say about this anti-demon battle before, just follow the plan."
"Oh, that's it." Taylan responded.
"Danica, you are not in good shape lately!" Phyllis asked, "Is something wrong?"
Danica was stunned for a moment and said, "Did you see it?"
Phyllis nodded and said, "Of course, it's obvious."
"Okay." Danica said helplessly, "You know that in such long-term and large-scale wars, power and tricks are actually not very effective. They are all about consumption, population consumption, and various military supplies. But now I find a problem. The production of the Gemini Kingdom may not be able to cope with such high-intensity consumption."
Phyllis thought for a while and said, "To be honest, you're a little embarrassed by Luna."
Phyllis' response seems a bit inconsistent, but as one of the Gemini Queens, she still knows Danica very well about the situation in the Gemini Kingdom. She knows what Danica means. Luna has been taking over the Aishi Chamber of Commerce for a few years and is far from being completely controlled. But now, Danica obviously hopes that Aishi Chamber of Commerce can achieve more than 100% of its production capacity, which is not something Luna can accomplish at all.
"Yes, the Aishi Chamber of Commerce is not Luna's. She can't mobilize such powerful energy." Danica said.
Phyllis glanced at Danica and said, "What are you going to do?"
Danica was silent, and after a while, she said, "If it really doesn't work, I can only find the owner of the Aishue Chamber of Commerce."
The only person who can be called the owner of Aixue Chamber of Commerce is Aixue. Even Danica can only control Aixue Chamber of Commerce, and it is far from being the owner of this complex institution. However, Aixue committed the crime of rebellion. No matter what, she really wanted to kill herself. If such a person is released, it would be a huge challenge to the authority of the entire Gemini law and the majesty of her Gemini queen. So as long as there is a trace of other possibilities, Danica is absolutely unwilling to re-activate Aixue.
Just when Danica was upset, the demon army led by Marganis had approached the first fortress in the Thorin area.
This battle is very critical to both sides. Although it is not the front-line commander, Danica and the others still stood on the city wall. They want to see with their own eyes how powerful the current demon army is.
Before the two sides had fought, Danica asked a question: "Their formation is too dense, right?" Under the threat of the Gemini Kingdom artillery, this dense formation will definitely suffer a great loss.
Tyran said: "Maybe they don't know that these demons may have come with the Abyss Peninsula and have never fought with us."
"They may not know, but Marganis must know the leader of the Demon Legion." Danica said with a gloomy face.
Things seemed to be very smooth. After the demon, who was slowly approaching the first fortress with a dense formation, Lina immediately ordered the fire. In an instant, tens of thousands of shells roared at the demon army, followed by another ten thousand. In order to defend the first fortress, Lina allocated 60,000 artillery pieces, and by firing in batches, it could be continuously.
The leader of the Demon Legion, fearful demon Marganis, has a bad look now. Of course, he knows the power of artillery and knows that artillery is very good at dealing with such dense phalanxes. However, he did not expect that the first fortress would have so many artillery, which was only a few hundred. Now it seems that this fortress has at least tens of thousands of artillery pieces.
"Let Neos go out, and now!" Marganis gave an order to the messenger next to him. He was thinking about whether he could hide this secret weapon for a while, but he didn't expect that he would encounter such a fierce artillery attack. Then forget it, just go out directly. Anyway, those guys are very suitable for attacking the artillery array.
On the wall of the first fortress, Danica and the others suddenly heard a huge roar.
"What is this?" Elizabeth asked, "The beast in the abyss?" In the previous anti-demon battle, Elizabeth's main opponent on the Western Front was the natural disaster undead, and she didn't fight with the Demon Legion. She also heard that there would be some powerful monsters in the Demon Legion that were tamed by demons.
"It sounds a little different!" Taylan said in confusion, "No! What is that!"
Thirteen giants flew out behind the demon legion, as if they were some kind of huge reptile, but they had wings on both ribs.
"This is... this is a dragon?!" Phyllis was also in a huge shock. She had seen descriptions of a dragon in the library before, which were very similar to these guys.
"Dragon? Isn't the dragon extinct?" Elizabeth said in surprise.
"No, it's not completely extinct." Phyllis explained, "When the four-grand coalition forces broke through the middle mountain range, some of the dragons fled, and it is said that they fled to a small island outside the sea. The dragons just died within the scope of the Katic continent."
Suddenly, someone shouted: "Architecture of artillery!"
Oops! The giant dragons flew over the positions of the two armies at extremely fast speed, flew to the upper hand of the artillery phalanx, and then several dragon breaths, and the entire artillery phalanx fell into chaos.
Although the artillery phalanx is powerful, its shortcomings are obvious. The artillery's own defense ability is extremely weak. Once approached by the enemy, the artillery can only be slaughtered. In order to make up for this defect, Danica took two measures. One is to send infantry to the front to prevent the enemy from rushing into the artillery phalanx. Now this work is the responsibility of the beast tribe; the other is to increase the number of artillery to ensure that the enemy suffers enough casualties on the way to charge.
But now, these two measures have no effect on the giant dragon flying in the sky, and the shells fired by the artillery are still flying out in the form of parabola, so the artillery cannot be used to air.
After realizing something was wrong, Danica took the lead. A wind blade flashed and slashed at the neck of a giant dragon. But what Danica never expected was that although the wind blade cut the dragon's skin, it did not cause any damage to the bones, but instead angered the guy.
At this time, the others also understood that three Saint-level powerhouses and two top eight-level professions took a minute to injure a giant dragon. The remaining dragon saw that the situation was not good, and quickly ran away. The giant dragon that fell to the ground due to the injury was wailing, attacking everything around frantically. The ordinary soldiers had no choice but to do anything to him. In the end, Lina sent several high-level professions to kill the dragon.
However, in just over a minute, the artillery positions in the Gemini Kingdom were completely in chaos, and I don’t know how long it would take to reorganize them. On the other hand, because it was not estimated that there would be so many artillery in the First Fortress, the Demon Legion suffered a great loss. Both sides chose to retreat temporarily.
When everyone returned to the conference room of the First Fortress, everyone's faces were very serious.
Finally, Phyllis spoke first and said, "Danica, dragon... The dragon is very restrained by your artillery." Fortunately, there are a few of them here this time, but what if they are not there? The dragon does not need to completely destroy the artillery array. They only need to cause a burst of chaos, so that the demon army can rush over. Once they enter the stage of close combat, the effect of the artillery will be much smaller.
From the time of seeing the dragon, Danica's face turned gloomy. She said, "I know this, only how to solve it... I need to go back. In addition, for now, artillery is still the best choice for us to deal with demons. Without the powerful lethality provided by artillery, we can't fight with human lives and demons. Let's shrink it soon, let Linna and the others pay more attention. If there is a dragon to harass it, they will rely on high-level professions to resist it."
Phyllis said seriously: "Now is not the time to hide his weakness. You can go back, but give me a brief explanation. Do you have any solutions?"
Danica hesitated for a moment and said, "It's not that there is no. The weapon I thought of to deal with the dragon is a crossbow, that kind of large siege crossbow." The crossbow can be considered to be launched in a straight line at a certain distance, so that it can hit the dragon flying in the sky.
Phyllis thought for a while and said, "This is a solution, but I'm afraid it's too late for a while." To deal with the dragon, the siege crossbow must first have a certain number. A few dozen or so are useless, at least thousands. Does the Gemini Kingdom have so many reserves? In addition, since the invention of artillery, the Craftsman Bureau of the Aixue Chamber of Commerce has set the scientific research direction for the development of artillery, and the development of crossbows has stopped. It is still unknown whether the so-called large crossbow can be used.
Seeing Danica silent, Phyllis said, "Let's do it, I'll transfer a group of middle- and high-level professionals from the Elf King Court. At least mid-level professionals are needed to deal with the dragon. In addition, Lucya, not talking about the dragon, but based on the combat power shown by the demon army this time, our troops are already a little insufficient. I suggest that the beast tribe send some more troops."
Lucyya said readily: "It is okay to send more troops, but what about the supply? Can it be more affordable?"
Tailan asked, "How many more do you want to send?" The supplies needed by the Beast Warriors are mainly food. As for weapons and equipment, even if there is any loss, it is not so fast.
Lucyya stretched out a hand and said, "Among five hundred thousand, I'll give another five hundred thousand, is it OK?"
Taylan calculated the food output of the Druid Sect in his mind and said, "Yes, the Druid Sect can be maintained."
"That's good, let's prepare as soon as possible." Phyllis said.
After the meeting, Elizabeth left with a gloomy face, and Lucia looked in a good mood. In fact, since Danica said the word "cross crossbow", Elizabeth's face began to look bad. The most profound research on crossbows in this world, especially large siege crossbows, is the Tulip Kingdom. Now, the only surviving royal member of the Aragon clan, Aphro Aragon, has rebuilt his home on the ruins of the Tulip Kingdom. If it is true
