Castle of Black Iron

Chapter 585: Offensive and defensive

On June 11, Zhang Tie followed Jin Yunguo's airship unit after performing a week-long theater patrol mission and then moved to a large airship base codenamed Base C, located 50 kilometers behind Wolfe City, to rest.

This has been the third time Zhang Tie has been here in this month, so he is no longer unfamiliar.

Two consecutive days of torrential rain marked the beginning of the rainy season in the Cernes Plain this year. The torrential rains in these two days not only affected the operations of the airship unit to a certain extent, except for Zhang Tie, but also the flight missions of gliders on other airships. It is almost impossible to expand.

When the Fool landed, as soon as Zhang Tie’s army boots stepped out of the hatch, several ground-based ambulance vehicles from the airship base drove by two meters away in front of him. Some of the water splashed from the wheels fell on. Zhang Tie's trousers and shoes.

The shallow stagnant water on the ground carried a lot of soot, and it was a series of black spots on the pants. The splashing sewage did not evade the identity of Zhang Tie Cernes's eagle, but rather smeared the brand-new military uniform he had just put on.

Zhang Tie looked down at his trousers and shoes that had been splashed with black spots, and then at the direction that several ground-based ambulance vehicles were heading. He just shook his head slightly, not caring, and moved towards Lan. The flagship of the Jinyun State Airship Unit where Yun Xi was located walked over.

There was still rain in the sky, but it was much smaller. Zhang Tie wore a waterproof poncho, strolling on the road of Base C where airships were everywhere, and a haze flashed in his heart. This haze did not come from the trousers. Those mud spots are the new situation encountered during the execution of the mission this week. Zhang Tie discovered that the Wing Demon seemed to have disappeared. For three consecutive days, he did not find a Wing Demon in the sky. What a good sign.

The demons will not back down, and the wing demons have not appeared, which means that the demons have already thought of new tactics to deal with the human race. Besides, there will be no second possibility.

The atmosphere at Base C also seemed to be a bit tense. This time, when he was still in the sky, Zhang Tie obviously felt that the guards here had strengthened a lot. Seven kilometers to the north of the base, it seemed that there was another battle fort. The number of barbed wire fences and patrolling troops has also increased.

At the moment, there are more than 3,000 airships staying at the airship base in Wolf City. Just like the airship exhibitions of various countries in the Weiyi subcontinent, there are flying airships rising and falling within a radius of tens of kilometers. That spectacular scene , Zhang Tie was amazed when he first came, but after two visits, Zhang Tie also became numb.

Artists and poets may find things that can inspire their inspiration and enthusiasm in the war, but for a person who really participates in the war process, the cruelty and coldness of the war will affect a person in a very short time. All the fantasies and romantic factors of my heart were ground to pieces, and then only two thoughts remained in my mind-how do I live? How to kill the enemy?

There are people coming and going in Base C. Almost no one has the leisure of walking in the rain. Everyone is either jogging or driving, and hurriedly rushing on the road. The landing airship made the ground crew busy and started. Various supplies were provided for the airship, and the crew of those airships that finally landed flocked to the striptease bars and brothels around the base.

Zhang Tie’s footsteps were also a bit fast. Although he was walking, it was similar to other people trotting. No one recognized him on the road. In the past month or so, Zhang Tie’s name never appeared in The Holy War In the Newsletter, he has not updated even the results on the record list in the Crystal Castle. In this case, the outside world pays much less attention to him.

When he came to Lan Yunxi’s flagship, almost half of the officers above the chief officer of each squadron of the Jinyun State Airship Force had already arrived. Among the people with the lowest rank of lieutenant colonel, Zhang Tie’s body The rank of sergeant seemed a bit dazzling, but his unique air cavalry uniform made him an exception, and he was qualified to participate in the high-level meeting of the fleet.

The participants were all the elites of the younger generation of the six major families of Jinyun Kingdom. For these people, their fancy to the rankings on the record list in the Crystal Fortress was better than the military ranks on each other's shoulders. No one had any opinions on Zhang Tie's attendance at the meeting.

Among those people, there are many guys who have bet and lost with Zhang Tie. Facing Zhang Tie’s powerful performance in the sky, those guys completely lost nothing to say. They were very polite to see Zhang Tie. .

The people who have come here are sitting on both sides of the conference table and discussing something in a low voice. Zhang Tie’s position is in the middle of the right hand side of the conference table. He found his seat and just sat down. Next to him is a lieutenant colonel. The guy has already moved his head actively, "The situation in the war zone seems a bit bad!"

Zhang Tie nodded solemnly.

The one speaking with Zhang Tie was Wang Cheng, a son of the Wang family, one of the six major clans of the Jinyun Kingdom, and a chief officer of the Seventh Squadron of the Airship Force. This guy is a self-familiar person. He had several meetings here with Zhang Tie. After meeting a few times, because the two people sat close together, they became familiar with each other.

When Zhang Tie came to base C last time, Zhang Tie and this guy also asked a few young officers to go to the officer’s club for a night of drinks. That night, a bunch of guys had bad intentions and wanted to pour Zhang Tie down. I didn't think that Zhang Tie, who could pound the things in his mouth and stomach into the Chaos Pool at any time, was a bottomless pit. A single person would put more than a dozen guys in it, even if those guys used wheel tactics.

After that time, Zhang Tie's reputation for being able to drink in the airship troops of Jin Yunguo was suddenly louder than his honorary title of the Eagle of Cernes, and he had the style of a winery overlord.

What Wang Cheng said was not good. A few minutes later, after all the officers had arrived, Lan Yunxi appeared, wearing a major general uniform and a majestic aura.

When Lan Yunxi appeared, all the officers sitting on both sides of the conference table stood up, and Zhang Tie also stood up.

Lan Yunxi didn’t have any extra expressions on her face, she just scanned the faces of the people in the congregation with her eyes. When she saw Zhang Tie, she stayed on Zhang Tie’s face for less than a third of a second, and she was satisfied. A little bit of vanity in Zhang Tie's heart, then nodded, everyone sat down again.

"I just received the news that the airship unit of the Federation of France was annihilated by the demons yesterday..."

Although Lan Yunxi only said one sentence, it was this sentence that immediately reduced the temperature in the entire conference room to below zero.

In the entire conference room, there was silence for almost half a minute before one person asked in a somewhat hoarse voice, "Is this... the news confirmed?"

"The Allied Forces Command has sent several demon hunting teams to the area where the airship forces of the Federation of France were involved in the accident. According to the results of the analysis on the scene, there is no time for the airship forces of the Federation of France to be shot down and annihilated from the encounter with the demons. More than twenty minutes!" Lan Yunxi's voice remained calm.

"How is it possible? The performance of the airship of the Airship Force of the Federation of France is slightly worse than that of the anger classification, but it is also a fleet with more than 500 large war airships. How could the Demon Race within 20 minutes? Nei completely wiped out such an airship fleet?" An officer shouted silently.

"This is a fact. The so-called possibility is based on the judgment of past experience!" Lan Yunxi looked at the officer with a wise look, "When we say the three words impossible, please ask first What is my own basis? Is the basis strong enough to be unshakable, or is it a certain habit or subjective will? This meeting discussed the question of possibility and impossibility, because it is no longer necessary. We want What is clear is how the demons did it, and how we should respond."

Zhang Tie was also lowering her head and pondering what Lan Yunxi said. As a commander, whether Zhang Tie admits it or not, Lan Yunxi is indeed better than herself in many places, which is why she can shock these people. Zhang Tie has learned a lot from Lan Yunxi.

The analysis and judgment of this overall situation is not Zhang Tie’s strong point. He just fell silent for a while, and saw that everyone was frowning and thinking, so he took the initiative to speak about the demon wing. The devil understands that if Zhang Tie is sitting there, he thinks that he is second, probably no one would dare to jump out and say that he is the first.

Only the Wing Demon and only the Wing Demon can shoot down the human airship troops in a short time. This is Zhang Tie's most direct judgment.

"While everyone is thinking about how the demons did it, there is a situation. I hope you can understand first. In the last few days, the number of wing demons I encountered and discovered has decreased by 90% compared to the previous period. Above, those winged demons seem to have disappeared out of thin air. This is very abnormal. Combined with the experience of the airship troops of the Federation of France, I think that the demons may have changed their tactics. How did they do it? This question does not It will not be too complicated, but it may be very simple, that is, the main force of the Demon Race, and it may have changed the use of the Wing Demon Force!"

Zhang Tie's words shocked everyone, and his eyes focused on Zhang Tie's body.

"In the past, the demons used winged demon forces in the Cernes theater by casting a net, spreading out the winged demon, and throwing them into the entire theater in threes, twos, twenty and eight, so that the winged demon would look like The wild wolves in the sky are wandering around looking for opportunities, and now, I guess, the Demon Race has begun to concentrate the power of the Wing Demon, and within 20 minutes it will have more than 500 war airships. For the annihilation of the troops, for the demons, it is only necessary to invest more than 1,000 wing demons at one time. Because of the weather, when the airship unit has no glider warning, the wing demons use the cover of clouds or terrain to suddenly enter the airship. Only in the formation of the troops can such an annihilation battle be completed in a short time!"

After Zhang Tie finished speaking, he saw Lan Yunxi’s gaze looking at him with a hint of appreciation and encouragement. Seeing Lan Yunxi’s gaze, he knew it. It is estimated that Lan Yunxi already knew the truth behind it, but Did not say it all at once.

As soon as Zhang Tie's voice fell, many people began to discuss it. After discussing it, everyone agreed with Zhang Tie's statement that the Demon Race had indeed begun to change the use of Wing Demon troops.

This is not a trivial matter, but a major event that concerns everyone in the entire Cernes theater. The demons have begun to focus on the Wing Demon, which means that the main force of the demons has found the human defense in Cernes. Weaknesses, and began to use deeper strength and greater investment to prepare to tear apart this line of defense of the human race in Cernes.

Air supremacy is a powerful protective umbrella for Terran in the Cernes theater of defense. Under the protection of this umbrella, Terran ground forces have the possibility of confronting the demons. If this umbrella is lost, then the ground It is impossible for the troops to hold on for long in front of the overwhelming demon army.

The air supremacy of the Terran line of defense relies on the powerful airship unit, while the powerful airship unit of the Terran has a weakness in the Cernes theater. This weakness is not originally a weakness, but once the opponent changes the wing magic tactics, this weakness will Suddenly exposed.

Wars are sometimes dominated by a bunch of strange mathematical principles and relativity.

It was the principle of probability that revealed the weakness of the human airship unit.

When the Wing Demon appeared in the Cernes Theater in a scattered manner, it was a high probability event for all the airship units to encounter the Wing Demon, and it was a small probability event that a large-scale airship unit was wiped out by the Wing Demon. The human airship unit Because it far exceeds the number of Wing Devils, they still firmly grasp the sky dominance of Cernes.

This is a confrontation between one net and another in the air.

And when the demons began to use the Wing Demon intensively, then all this changed. It is no longer a high probability event for the human airship unit to encounter the Wing Demon in the sky, because the activity space and time of the Wing Demon have been compressed. Once encountered, the balance of power between the two sides in a local area will be reversed suddenly, and the annihilation of the Terran airship unit will become a high probability event.

Wing demons can obtain relative air supremacy at certain times and places. Through this relative air supremacy, the superiority of the human airship forces can be completely subverted and eroded step by step...

The demons can concentrate and use the wing demons without restrictions. However, subject to the airship’s flight principles, command and communication level and various objective conditions, the Terran airship units cannot do this, even if they can barely do it. There will be any effect.

Because tens of thousands of airships appear in the sky to act together, even if they are arranged in the densest formation, they will occupy an area of ​​tens of square kilometers in the sky, unless the demons are blind waiting for you to attack and Bombing, otherwise the actions of such airship forces will not achieve much success at all, and it will also give the demons a chance. In terms of the penetration of the Three Eyes on the theater, I am afraid that such an action plan has just been issued to the airship units, and the Demon Race knows what the Human Race wants to do.

After confronting the Terran coalition forces in the Cernes Theater for several months, when the rainy season in the Cernes Theater arrived this year, the Demon Army finally found the Terran defense line in the constant friction and confrontation with the Terran coalition forces. The weakness of the human race began to tear apart the human air protection umbrella in the Cernes Theater.

The Mozu net turned into a knife, and it began to force a hole in the cover of the protective umbrella in the human sky...

Following Lan Yunxi's explanation and everyone's discussion, Zhang Tie's heart, who had been listening quietly by the side after speaking once, slowly sank.

Does the Mozu really have no weaknesses?

"No, the Mozu did this, in fact, it also gave us a chance, a chance that may severely damage the ground forces of the Mozu. It is not without any cost for the Mozu to change the use of the Wing Mozu troops..." When the clouds were over, Lan Yunxi's determined voice suddenly reached Zhang Tie's ears...
