Chapter 950: Engagement (2)
There are many such fortresses near Dongyang City. As a post, it can provide very accurate information to Dongyang.
Most of the floating warships brought by Su Jing, including the six magic warships, put down some puppets and serial giant crossbows, to provide support to these fortresses. Most of the fortresses began to be renovated due to the invasion of the Fishman Empire. They were already relatively strong and had complete defensive facilities. However, there were 20 to 30% of the fortresses, which had not yet been restored.
Since the establishment of the Dongqin Empire, the Zhu family's status has been very stable. In Xingzhou, there is no force to dare to fight against them. Having the thorn formation is enough to maintain the security of Dongyang. Therefore, it is normal for the fortress to be abandoned.
The first fortress to be supported was quite solid, with giant bluestones reinforced by runes. This was the first batch of auxiliary buildings when Dongyang City was established. Even under the fortress, it was difficult to penetrate from the ground, and things like earth escape were also isolated. The ground part above the fortress could only accommodate about 500 people. The underground part could accommodate more than 3,000 people.
Moreover, there was once a teleportation array in the core of the underground, but of course it is broken and no one has rested.
On the four flat forts, two large serial giant crossbows were arranged in total, and then ten small heavy crossbows. In the sky in the distance, the Allied floating warships tilted metal arrows to the beach, and the screams of the fishman passed through several miles of space and entered the fortress, making the people in the fortress feel more and more calm.
The firepower of the Allied forces was quite good. Almost all of the first group of fishmen landed were flooded by metal storms. After more than three thousand fishmen, only more than one hundred were left after two attacks.
In the sky, the Tian Yao Ship retreated. Replacing the built-in weapon dimension box, the metal storm consumes a lot, which is actually not conducive to long-term combat. Laser rune cannons are good things, and as long as jade is enough, it can be fired continuously.
However, metal arrows are made and can be delivered continuously on the assembly line. It takes 100,000 years to form ore veins.
Metal storms are cheap, and laser rune cannons are expensive. Only when the inventory is shot out can small warships replace laser rune cannons to fight. Now Su Jing's Allied forces have summarized many combat routines. Now, because they are locally defended and supply is very easy, everyone uses metal storms to fight.
As long as you return to Dongyang City, any loss can be fully supplemented. The Zhu family not only has money, but also has enough weapons reserves. The Zhu family started by selling weapons, but it is not as good as the Yuan family.
The flag of the small flag was observing with a telescope. When they saw a large number of fish soldiers standing by on the beach, they were also a little scared. These fish men are really not afraid of death!
Even if the Taoist army was killed half, it would be depressed and had to retreat. The first wave of 3,000 fishmen was almost wiped out, but the fishmen behind still rushed over and rushed towards the beach with the waves.
These fishmen did not have legs, but were bounced on land with a tail. The fishmen's mage did not land in the first wave, nor did they create any barriers with water attributes. The strength of those fishmen dropped drastically.
It turns out that this is cannon fodder. It is used to consume our weapons.
Xiaoqiqi couldn't help but talk to himself when suddenly a voice in his ear said, "You are right, the fishman doesn't care about the life or death of the soldiers, but we care."
"Who!" Xiaoqiqi was turning back. Seeing a young man standing next to him and leaning back with a passionate smile on his face, it made people feel hostile.
"I am Inujuro, come and have a look."
Inujuro said, but he pushed the small flag flag away in his hand, occupying his position to observe the beach in the distance. He was originally in the Wonderland World, but he heard that there was a big battle here, so he couldn't help but come over to take a look. Su Jing didn't stop him. Inujuro alone, his help to the Wonderland World was limited.
As long as you leave enough blood, Su Jing will not stop Inujuro from coming back and experience this war that affected the entire Dongqin.
The power of Xiaoqi disappeared and was easily pushed aside by Inujuro. Inujuro's actions were very arrogant and deserved a beating, but Xiaoqi's mentality was very natural.
He was not angry at all, as if Inujuro should be his coach.
Inujuro pinched out fifty wooden talismans from his hand, threw them behind him, and turned into fifty talisman demons. Inujuro said, "Let them take over the artillery, and you don't have to be responsible for all the crossbow arrows. They can fight for about two days and two nights."
The soldiers near the fort retreated according to the orders, and only the divine weapon puppet is still there, responsible for transporting arrows. Their direct combat power is not too great. If the Zhu family's army does not have special training, joining the divine weapon puppet will affect their performance.
However, these puppets are not afraid of ordinary attacks and are more suitable for transportation on the battlefield.
Inujuro frowned. On the beach in the distance, there were more and more fishmen. The first three thousand people appeared within two miles. On the sea, the waves were getting higher and higher, rushing towards the beach. After more fishmen came ashore, they rushed forward wildly. Rune traps on the beach burst out continuously, and many fishmen's lower bodies were covered in blood and could no longer move forward.
The fishman behind didn't care about this kind of trap at all, but rushed forward and pressed his companions down, becoming a natural barrier to resist the trap.
"What a beast!" Inujuro sighed. This method of tides on runway traps is the best use. The fish man also has armor on his body, and his defense is excellent. It is impossible for the rune trap to cause any damage to the fish man on it after it penetrates the fish man. But this method is really hurting morale.
Of course, the fishman did this because the attack in the air never stopped. If he wanted to build a bridge or pave the road, he would not have the time at all.
The mage among the fishman has not appeared yet, and destroying the trap is not something that soldiers can do.
The most annoying thing about this rune trap is that it will not completely fail after you trigger it. A rune can be triggered almost ten times before it gradually reduces its power.
These things made by the Zhu Qi Refiners are quite reliable. So far, the fishman whose tails were cut off by the fairyland have found it difficult to move quickly and can only squirm on the spot.
The frequency of attacks in the sky has always been the same. The injured fishman is just waiting to die on the spot. In almost half an hour, the fishman has advanced less than one mile away. On this beach of more than 400 meters, there were about 20,000 corpses.
At this time, there was an additional fishman army on the beach - the giant turtle.
These giant tortoises are not slow, at least about the same speed as the running of an adult. There are stacked runes on the giant tortoise's carapace, which are rushing forward and being shot by a metal storm in the sky, but they still become non-hidden safety bridges.
The metal storm shoots short arrows, all of which can sink into the turtle's shell. Those runes provide speed for the giant turtle, not defense.
"Please note that the fishman is going to charge at a high speed. The fleet in the sky will not increase the attack frequency. Be careful. The fishman's bone arrows are not shot in a straight line. Those with shields should be used." Inujuro is not an unreliable person now. He knows very well about the fishman's methods.
The patrol team of the Zhu family was pieced together, and there were only twenty heavy armors out of the 200 people. On the contrary, there were more shields. After hearing Inujuro's words, these soldiers immediately took shields from nearby.
The fishman army was not afraid of casualties. The floating battleships in the sky were no longer available to replenish the metal storm and immediately replaced their weapons to attack.
The laser rune cannon was shot like rain, and the cannon fodder fishman could not withstand the power of this weapon. However, the floating warships were limited, and there were still giant turtles and fishman breaking through the blockade and crossing the beach. The floating warships in the sky were helpless and could only attack the fishman behind.
There were more and more fishmen on the shore, and gradually, the troops had reached the vicinity of the fortress where Inujuro was located.
Most of the floating warships were concentrated in the port to protect the Zhu family's fleet. The main force of the fishman was also there. This was just a partial division. Even so, when people saw thousands of fishman army roaring towards them, and in the fortress of only two hundred soldiers, the Zhu family's faces were slightly cold.
They were not afraid of it at first, but when they saw the fishman charging through his companion's body and fearlessness, their emotions were inevitably affected.
Inujuro sneered that the team left behind by the Zhu family still lacked actual combat. The army that followed Su Jing, even the fourth-line legion, would be excited and waiting to attack at this time.
The attack in the air has not been increased, and the fishman's chariots and horses have not appeared. The floating warships must retain their combat power and wait for the enemy's main force.
Inujuro didn't have the patience. He turned around and said to the little flag, "See, there are almost 3,000 fishmen, who are coming in our direction. It seems that they want to try to break through the thorn forest. Who dares to attack me?"
Inujuro looked provocative. The little flag hesitated for a moment and said to the deputy little flag beside him: "You bring people to guard me, I need fifty people. Follow the adults to attack. Who will come? Sign up by yourself!"
More than a hundred people immediately stood up, and the disciples of the Zhu family were not that weak. Those who refused to stand up were also good at bows and crossbows and people who were not good at cavalry warfare.
Xiaoqi immediately pointed out fifty of them, checked the armor and gathered the war horses. Inujuro did not allow soldiers to take two horses, each of them was only one. After leaving the door on the side of the fortress, Inujuro took out a pair of small hammers from his hand.
