There is no napalm in the institute, so people in the army can only choose between light oil and diesel. Diesel is not volatile enough to ignite immediately, so it can only be used in light oil.
Light oil has poor density and surface tension. This property cannot withstand air resistance, so that it atomized directly when it was thrown out from the underwing fuel tank of the Tornado II.
The pilots of the aircraft realized that something was not right, and two of them quickly adjusted their flight direction to fly against the wind and tried to lower their altitude as much as possible.
Fortunately, the anti-magic bomb had exploded at this time, and they were not directly attacked even when their height dropped to about 300 meters, and they successfully completed the throwing mission and escaped.
The situation in the camp below was miserable. Two tons of mist gasoline floated down and combined with the cluster bombs set on fire in front, immediately triggered several deflagrations.
Deflagration requires the combustibles to reach a certain mixing ratio. Usually the combustibles ratio needs to be around 6%. If it exceeds 12%, it will only spread like a normal flame without a shock wave.
The terrible thing about deflagration is not that the instant flame can only burn your hair, but that it consumes a lot of oxygen in an instant. It was obviously not a cloud bomb, but two tons of fuel did create an effect similar to a cloud bomb in some areas of the camp.
In addition to accidental deflagration, some areas with higher fuel density also ignited successfully, igniting less than half of the target that should be burned.
"The Rebirth of Financial Giants"
If it is a simple task of burning a warehouse, if the ignition point is less than half, it will be considered a failure.
But after this set of combos, setting fire is just a bonus.
The damage area of a 500-kilogram aerial bomb is about 2,000 square meters, which is a little small. The actual scope of impact will be much larger, because the damage is calculated when shrapnel is inserted, and the insertion force is calculated based on the steel plate inserted into the steel plate.
For a camp area that is mainly made up of tents and a few temporary houses supported by logs, two thousand square meters is obviously too small. Such a building cannot withstand the sweeping shock wave. There is no need for supersonic shock waves. Even the peripheral air waves are enough to overturn a straight line. Several tents.
The entire orc camp was full of dead and wounded, and a large number of orc tents were buried underneath after being torn apart by the shock wave. There were also many who had just crawled out of their bedding and were choked on the ground due to sudden lack of oxygen. There was no way to organize an effective attack for a while. Firefighting and material rescue forces.
After the mission crew regained altitude, it was confirmed with the naked eye that the fire had spread to the entire warehouse area, and the last two aircraft left.
But tonight's task is not over yet.
The six aircraft returned to Dongshan Road, replaced the magic modules in the belly of the aircraft, remounted them and took off again. In fact, the magic modules consumed less than half, so it would be fine if they did not replace them. It was better to replace them on site to avoid accidents that required continuous lifting. Condition.
This time there were no aerial bombs, they were all oil barrels.
And unlike the oil drums carried by the previous three planes, the twelve oil drums carried this time were all filled with heavy fuel.
The viscosity of heavy oil is higher than diesel, has extremely poor fluidity, and is also non-flammable.
But non-flammability is relative. When the target is a fire, there is no difference between heavy oil and diesel oil. They will both burn due to the high temperature of the environment. Moreover, heavy oil has another characteristic. It will be very difficult to remove when it sticks to the body, especially the orcs, who are mostly hairy. tactical advantage.
There is no need to throw heavy oil, and its viscosity cannot be thrown away. Go to the location to confirm the high temperature area, lower the height and throw it directly with the barrel and lid.
I don’t know whether it was because it was too dark or because of the psychological shadow caused by the previous wave. When the oil barrel was thrown down, a magician took action on the oil barrel!
It was probably intended to burn the oil in the air, but unfortunately it didn't work. Instead, the oil barrels were fried, and two of the barrels of heavy oil were also thrown over a large area. The observer in the back seat with good eyesight could clearly see at least a dozen people near the fire scene. The orc's body burned directly.
…
After this night of trouble, there was no need for a fight.
No, the injured General Upfapp decided to fight anyway.
Upfapu, standing behind the military formation, stared at the distant city wall with squinted eyes, as if he wanted to carve every detail deep into his heart.
The two explosions in the early morning were really powerful. If Upfapu hadn't slept at that time and had a stomach, he would have gone directly to see his ancestors. But even with the protection of the stomach and the permanent shield, he was still hit by half a stick. The log smashed into his forearm, and the shield's protection against wood attacks was not as good as against iron weapons.
In one night, only more than a thousand soldiers died, the entire baggage warehouse was burned to the ground, and most of the 20% of the rescued grain and grass were cooked.
Upfapp never dreamed that an air raid at night could produce such an effect.
Now it's either a matter of withdrawing troops and going back to rest and replenish supplies, while at the same time further reducing morale.
Either take advantage of the fire in the hearts of the soldiers, attack it, and leave after the fight regardless of the result. If the city is broken, then wash the inside with blood, and supplies and morale will no longer be a problem.
I didn’t have high expectations, but decided to do it anyway.
"Attack!" Without waving his arms, he just raised his hand and pointed with his fingers.
The momentum is not very good, but it doesn't matter, this signal is not sent to the general soldiers.
The only existing siege equipment is some logs that were not burned last night and a double-digit number of ladders. Logs can be used as dangerous ladders or as a substitute for battering rams, but no matter how many uses they have, such things are too crude for siege.
The key point is that Upfapu knows that the Phoenix Kingdom's troops are equipped with a large number of muskets. If they rush forward like this, they will undoubtedly lose their lives.
So when the attack order was issued, the first thing to go was the magician group and a brigade responsible for protecting them.
The spell they want to cast is [Earthquake].
Earthquake is a four-ring spell with a relatively low threshold. Its essence is no different from the three-ring spell Earth Thorn, but its upper limit is very high. A truly powerful mage group can use it like a forbidden spell, and it is also the favorite tactical magic used in military operations.
Mages are affected by vision and the disintegration rate of formed magic. The range of general spells is relatively limited. Even if a real seventh-ring mage comes, unless he decides to use forbidden spells, he usually does not use spells with a distance of more than one mile.
Such a casting distance is obviously too naive. A ballista placed on a city wall can easily threaten an enemy one mile away. Therefore, the tactical magic cast by the magician group has been specifically enhanced for this, and the casting distance can reach three miles.
It can be further away, but the goal this time is not to interfere with the enemy, but to effectively destroy the city wall, otherwise the subsequent attack will be meaningless.
In addition to the protected brigade, other soldiers also advanced.
The whole army lined up three miles outside the city wall.
The width of the tactical surface is not enough. When tens of thousands of people are lined up, there are dozens of people in a row, and there are extra people on the hills on both sides. Although they cannot reach the city wall, they can immediately observe the movement on the city wall. .
The army stopped, and the magicians had not yet coordinated the spells before the other party responded.
It's a pity that the person responsible for observing on the hill was completely useless, because the things flew directly out from behind the city wall!
This thing fell into a not-so-dense formation, knocking down several soldiers on the spot, but then some of the soldiers got up again, and only three people died.
Upfap didn't know the information about this weapon. It was obviously something similar to an artillery piece, but the artillery pieces used solid bullets. How did they throw the projectiles so far and make them explode when they were not activated?
This kind of thing can be investigated afterwards, but now Upfapp hesitates.
After waiting for a while, I felt a little relieved. It seemed that the launch speed of this thing was a bit slow.
Just as he was thinking this, another cannonball flew out from the city wall and flew straight towards the magician group!
Upfap narrowed his eyes again.
I misread it. The firing frequency of this thing is not low. It was a school cannon just now.
