Both forces from the air and the ground launched attacks at the first opportunity, without giving the Destroyer commander a single second of reaction time, showing careful planning and preparation in advance.
The air force set out in the dark at the darkest hour before dawn. Although the sound of flapping wings attracted the attention of the resting Destroyer, the Destroyer could not see anything in the dark night.
The flying knights arrived at the ambush site guided by the information package stored in their minds in advance. As the flying knights landed on the trees one after another, the sound of flapping wings disappeared, and the Destroyers didn't pay much attention.
The ground troops with the "tank" troops as the vanguard poured out from the spacious "sacred passage", which was re-widened overnight to prepare for the departure of the army.
When the sun, the sign of departure, appeared at the designated location, the protagonist retracted from the observation gap and pushed away the boulder blocking the door. The army filed out and began to attack firmly and fiercely.
Although both the air force and the army followed the request of the Divine Envoy King and dispatched when the sun had completely risen above the top of the tallest tree in the distance to the east, the air force was obviously faster.
200 flying knights formed a line and rushed towards the team of White-bellied Destroyers, like a long dragon across the sky.
This is an excellent opportunity. In order to prevent accidental injuries when self-destructing, this time the Destroyer did not deploy any escort troops around the White-Belly Destroyer team. The nearest military formation was also a short distance away from the White-Belly Destroyer team. The white-bellied destroyer is as defenseless as a lamb to the slaughter.
On the Flying Knight's flight path, the Great Destroyers below jumped up one after another, like a group of grasshoppers, trying to drag the Flying Knight down from the air.
However, the Flying Knight was still flying at a relatively high altitude at this time, and the Destroyer's crude and spontaneous air defense only had a futile intimidation effect.
Within two minutes, the flying knights had reached the target. At this time, all the army had not left the entrance and the forward tank troops had just rushed down the mountain top.
The flying knights dived like a long dragon. When they reached the lowest point, which was only two or three meters above the ground, they dropped the already burning fire bombs. Then they immediately climbed up, drawing a round U-shaped trajectory in the air.
The 200 fire bombs were like a dense and slow meteor shower, falling unstoppably to the ground, shrouding the entire White Belly Destroyer team inside.
The burning heat, pain, and bombardment of fire bombs caused the team of White-bellied Destroyers to become chaotic and scurry around. Explosions of White-bellied Destroyers being detonated continued to sound. The fire and shock waves further aggravated the enemy's chaos.
In the first round of bombing, about fifty White-bellied Destroyers were detonated, and another twenty or thirty were burned to death.
The enemy's escort troops were already rushing in like crazy, but taking advantage of the time lag, the flying knights launched a second attack.
The bombing effect this time was not very good, and the result was only about half of the last time, because the White Belly Destroyers had instinctively dispersed due to the chaos of the first air raid, and the losses were reduced by a combination of circumstances.
The flying knights still carry half of the ammunition, but it is obvious that they alone are not enough to destroy all the White Belly Destroyers.
Therefore, the assistance of the Army is essential!
The Army's forward troops were almost reaching the foot of Anthill Hill, and the two closest Destroyer formations had already moved forward and hastily set up a line of defense.
The flying knights changed their targets according to the plan and conducted a round of bombing on this line of defense.
Because of the Destroyer's amazing jumping ability, the Flying Knights could only drop bombs at a higher altitude this time. The fire bombs fell over a long distance and were relatively scattered. The killing effect was very average, but it also made the Destroyers panic.
At this time, the tank troops finally arrived.
After a period of replenishment in [Qingqiu City], the large and medium-sized beetles of the 1st Legion were strengthened, and there were as many as 16 bifurcated rhino beetles carrying crossbows.
After entering the firing range, these "tanks" immediately stopped and used their ballistae to fire at the Destroyer's formation that was chaotic due to air strikes at the highest rate of fire.
This time, all the fire bombs fired from the tanks were precious fire bombs. For this battle, the protagonist emptied his family's fortune. The front-line troops used fire bombs at will.
As long as these scorching fire bombs stick to the Destroyer, they cannot be shaken off. Basically, they will either die or be disabled.
Taking advantage of the tank salvo, the assault force, mainly composed of large and medium-sized stag beetles or scarab beetles, immediately accelerated and crashed into the already chaotic enemy formation.
The stag beetle used its large jaws to pinch off or knock away the Destroyer blocking the road. The warriors of the God's Envoy King on the back of the beetle also threw fire bombs. Together with the accompanying infantry, they directly penetrated the formation with rich levels of firepower and powerful assault force. And passed by, then without stopping at all, continued to kill the White Belly Destroyer.
Behind them, two warriors from the Envoy King Legion also followed. They continued to attack the already chaotic remnants of the Destroyer, protecting 16 "tanks" as they passed through the enemy formation and kept up with the forwards.
The subsequent legions also followed up, and at the same time they set up positions to prepare for the return of friendly troops who had completed their missions.
At this time, thousands more Destroyers had approached the White-Belly Destroyer, and the White-Belly Destroyer had also recovered from the chaos caused by the air raid.
The beetle troops crashed into more than 2,000 enemies without hesitation. Follow-up troops also arrived one after another, and the battle became fierce.
A stag beetle bit the White-bellied Destroyer in front of him. The White-bellied Destroyer's belly was turning red and it was about to explode. But as its upper body was severed by its jaws, its abdomen returned to its original white color, even paler, and the risk of explosion was eliminated.
There were only two drivers and three warriors left on the back of a medium-sized scarab beetle. The commander and other warriors had died in the Destroyer's counterattack, and the accompanying infantry were also killed and wounded. They were trapped in the enemy's siege. . But the soldiers were not afraid, and even the drivers joined the battle. They pierced the fire bombs as quickly as possible, and then threw them out to attack all enemies who dared to get close. When all the soldiers were dead, the last driver ignored the scorching heat and got into the ammunition rack with the burning red fire bombs. A huge explosion followed, covering the soldiers, beetles and surrounding enemies.
Another medium-sized scarab and its accompanying infantry had already killed more than a dozen White-bellied Destroyers. When they saw another White-bellied Destroyer rushing over, the warriors of the God's Envoy King fell into a melee in other directions and had no time to intercept them. . The White-bellied Destroyer then self-destructed at close range, killing an entire squad of the Divine Envoy King's warriors and mounts.
This scene happens anytime and anywhere on the battlefield. The battle is extremely fierce, and both sides are fighting desperately regardless of casualties.
The flying knights were also furious. It was not until the last ammunition was exhausted that they reluctantly returned to [Qingqiu City] to replenish it.
The protagonist is currently standing at the highest point of the anthill, observing the battle situation. Seeing the continuous losses of the 1st Legion, his heart is bleeding.
