When Ackerman led the troops to the Far Cinder Hills, this place had already become a Xiura Field full of blood and fire.

Relying on the hilly area, the enemy has set up three layers of defense lines from low to high, and a large number of bunkers, trenches and tunnels have been built on each defensive line.

The sound of thousands of muskets firing at the same time was connected together, forming a deafening roar; the gun smoke from the muzzle gathered together and enveloped the entire battlefield in mist.

Tortoise-style shotguns, snake-style slender cannons, eagle-style short-mouth guns and even lion-style mortars are arranged behind each bunker, pouring a storm of steel toward the army below the mountain.

The two columns from the Longguo Expeditionary Army had broken through the first line of defense, but were blocked by the second line of defense.

Randall, who had just entered the battlefield, held up his shield, protected Ackerman behind him, and led his team into the bunker of the first defensive line.

As soon as they entered the bunker, everyone saw an orc commander wearing a keel, sitting behind the earth and rocks under the guard of hundreds of Clerical soldiers, cursing everything around him loudly.

"You are the commander of the eleventh column..." Ackerman crouched beside the orc, looked at the latter's lower body, and couldn't help taking a breath.

The upper body covered by the keel is no different, but the lower body from the knee to the foot of the orc is filled with iron pieces and debris that splashed after the explosion.

The orc commander slammed the ground around him and shouted angrily: "Just half an hour ago, I led the troops to attack their second line of defense, if it weren't for that bunch of **** mines!"

Randall peeked his head out of the trench and glanced out quickly. The bullets and cannonballs flying around in the air made him retract his head again.

"Did the lunatics of the Southern Empire sell the firearms of the entire country to the church?!" Randall patted the dust on his body and shouted: "The firepower here is stronger than what we have encountered before. All the enemy forces that come together are even stronger!"

Ackerman touched Randall's arm and motioned him to look to the sky.

The three Valkyries are riding griffins, circling constantly in the sky, seeming to be looking for targets that can drop bombs.

Finally, a Valkyrie commanded the Griffin and swooped down towards a large bunker on the ground.

When the height of the ground was nearly 100 meters, the spores under the Griffin body were all released, like raindrops, to the enemy's position.

A series of huge explosions shook the entire mountain by three points, and the blazing white light flooded the earth, dyeing everything in the world white.

When the explosion slowly disappeared, Ackerman, with his tinnitus and dazzled eyes, crawled to the edge of the trench and asked, "How is it? Did you blow up the bunker?"

Randall observed for a while, and finally shook his head disappointedly: "Spore airstrikes can use glare and impact to temporarily disable enemy positions, but unless it hits directly above the bunker, it is difficult to explode them. A strong stone fort with a thickness of several meters."

Ackerman waited for the smoke to dissipate, and found that there were several huge pits with a diameter of more than ten meters on the position. However, due to the accuracy problem, the bunker group was only shattered by a small part of the impact, but it was not destructive. Blow.

"The surface of the spore parasite is a toughened biological leather. Except for a small amount of cartilage and texture, the body is mostly alveolar-like balloons filled with explosive fluid like nitroglycerin."

Ioonela's speech caused Randall and Ackerman to look at each other unidentifiedly.

Ackerman widened his eyes and asked, "So what?"

Ionera looked at the remaining two Valkyries still hovering in the sky, and said: "The physiological characteristics of the spore determine that when it is thrown from a high altitude, it will appear more severely due to the influence of wind and fluid. Large accuracy deviation. Therefore, spores are generally used against enemy forces with higher density or less armor..."

Randall interrupted Ionera's words: "The principle will be explained later, so you can tell me directly, in this situation, how to deal with the enemy's defense line?"

"There are three ways."

"The first method is that the alien warship that the kingdom stays in the southern waters can use electromagnetic guns to blow up these bunkers..."

Ackerman couldn't wait to say: "Great, what are you waiting for? Contact them quickly!"

Ioonela gave him a white look: "The range. The distant ember hills are far from the coast, and they are beyond the range of the electromagnetic cannon."

Ackerman looked annoyed and said, "If you can't do it, don't bring it up."

"Then I will say the second method. The Valkyrie can improve accuracy by lowering the height of the bomb, but..."

Before Ioonera's words fell, as if to confirm his words, the second Valkyrie in the sky began to dive down, rushing straight towards the bunker on the second line of defense.

The height was getting lower and lower, but the Valkyrie still did not give an order to drop the bomb. Under everyone's stunned gaze, the griffon fell towards the ground like a meteor.

Ioonela grabbed his hair: "After the attack just now, the enemy will definitely be prepared for the air. Therefore, dropping bombs at low altitude at this time... is tantamount to suicide."

When there was still fifty meters from the ground, the gunshots in the bunker sounded again, and countless bullets shot into the air.

Accompanied by the whine, the griffon that had been hit by several bullets was no longer able to wave its wings, and stumbled to the ground, feathers and blood scattered in the air.

The Valkyrie with a feather crown drew out the long sword with one hand and stroked the mount under her with the other. With a decisive look, she exhausted all her strength and shouted out an ancient oath.

In the next second, she and her mount drew an arc in the sky and slammed into the bunker position on the defensive line accurately. The earth-shattering explosion tore a huge gap in the enemy's second line of defense.

A piece of burning feather quietly turned into ashes in the air, as if using the fireworks of this moment to show everyone the last splendor of its owner.

Ackerman, who witnessed this scene with his own eyes, was full of tears and blood.

He tied a feather arrow to the bowstring and yelled at the soldiers beside him: "Because of incompetence and weakness, our unfinished mission finally made our sisters give their lives! Is this what you want to see? ? Is this the vow you once made to God?"

Amid the loud roar of the soldiers of the Crusade Army, Randall opened all the keels, like a big steel umbrella blocking the front, and he was the first to rush out of the trenches with his low body.

Carol patted Aldenan on the shoulder, followed behind Randall, and rushed out with a stride, rushing to the gap of the second line of defense with the smoke flying in the sky.

Ionera lay down in the trenches and shouted at the soldiers charging ahead: "Follow the path of the beasts! They can smell the location of the mines!"

Using the powerful power of the keel, coupled with the effect of rapid speed, Randall increased the running speed to the extreme.

In just a few tens of seconds, he took dozens of keel knights across the two-kilometer line of defense, and directly approached the trench of the second line of defense.

The sacrifice of the Valkyrie gave the enemy a brief chaos, but soon, the charge launched by the knights made the church army react instantly.

The sound of guns, which had been a little silent, sounded again, bullets and shells, like raindrops and hail, attacked the attackers.

Randall and the knights opened their keel shields with all their strength, and the creeping parasites quickly grew, lengthened, and entangled, and quickly formed a black wall in front of the enemy's line of defense.

The lead bullet of the musket hit the keel, making a beeping sound, but it did not shake the shield in the slightest.

Randall used the keel armor to resist the frontal impact, and shouted to his side: "Follow the beast! Watch out for the mines!"

Dozens of giant wolves lay on all fours, hiding behind the worm shield, while sniffing **** the ground with their noses.

Soon, the vanguard consisting of knights and war beasts smoothly opened up a safe route in the defensive minefield.

When the shield formation of Randall and the knights beside him advanced to only two hundred meters from the enemy's second line of defense, the enemy's artillery began to list them as their priority targets.

After the deafening shelling, metal cannonballs of various sizes flew from the bunker at high speed in the flames.

After the cannonball bounced once on the hard ground, with huge kinetic energy, it directly hit the knights' keel.

In the sound of a metal crash, the keel was dented by the shells, but the ability to regenerate quickly returned them to normal.

However, the users of the keel, the knights, have caused considerable losses due to the power brought about by the impact.

Seeing a knight hit by a cannonball and falling to the ground vomiting blood, Randall used the honeycomb on his back to give instructions to everyone.

"Take advantage of the gap between the loading of the artillery, everyone in the Knights obeyed! Put away the shield umbrella! Advance at full speed!"

The knights adjusted the keel shield from the extended mode to the folded mode, drew out their weapons, and rushed towards the enemy line of defense.

After paying a lot of casualties, the knights finally rushed into the enemy's trenches first.

As soon as Randall jumped into the trench, a soldier with a cross on his chest and a panic face appeared in front of him.

The opponent hurriedly tried to load the musket. Randall did not even think about it. He turned a keel parasite limb into a spear and directly pierced the opponent's chest.

Carroll, Aldenan, and Bourville also rushed into the trench at this time, and the strength of the orcs, the speed of the werewolves, and the tenacity of the tauren were brought to the fullest in this narrow passage.

Aldenan jumped onto the mound of the trench, and with a sudden force, jumped directly into the enemy's musketeer formation.

A pair of sharp claws flew up and down, and the heads of enemies flew into the sky one after another.

Carroll, the green-skinned monster nearly two meters tall, walked slowly towards a knight commander of the church army, who panicked and raised the short gun in his hand and pulled the trigger towards the former.

After the gun was fired, the lead bullet was embedded in the skin of the orc, but it did not cause much damage to the opponent~lightnovelpub.net~Carol just shook his body and continued walking towards the enemy.

When the orc walked in front of the enemy commander, the former grabbed the latter's helmet with one hand, exerted force with five fingers, and squeezed.

The helmet made of steel is like paper, deformed and deformed.

Bones and blood shot out from the cracks in the helmet and spilled all over the floor.

The church soldiers around, seeing this scene, were all frightened, and threw down their weapons and fled towards the rear.

At this time, Bulville the tauren directly rammed into the enemy's bunker. Amid the screams of the enemy soldiers, he directly removed the artillery mounted on the fort and waved it as a weapon.

Suddenly, the entire bunker was flying in flesh and blood, with no survivors.

Half an hour later, the 3,000 soldiers of the Longguo Expeditionary Army completely controlled the second line of defense in Yuanzhin Hill.
