Monarch of Evernight
Chapter 720 Fire
The floater failed to run far, and a turret opened fire suddenly at a surprisingly fast rate, with constant fire, punching it on the floater, causing its parts to scatter and the fire to overflow. The floating ship persisted for a moment and swayed to the ground, blowing up into a fireball.
The turret then turned and the fire struck another floating ship. This time the result was even more prominent, blowing it up over the sky!
However, the loss of two floating boats does not reverse the war, with dozens of floating boats over Black Stream. More than a dozen of them were heavily armoured large gunboats, suspended at a height beyond the reach of the turret's power, and more than a dozen metres of guns continued to bombard targets in Black Stream City.
Within the Dark Fire headquarters, Dunhao and Song Hu gathered in front of the city's defensive map, all with a heavy face. Outside the windows, noises are heard, sometimes shaking the Headquarters building, and dust and dirt fall from time to time on the ceiling.
The city's defensive maps are already filled with markings, from which insiders can see that the entire Black Stream City defense is already sore and can only be barely supported. Only the defensive line around the Dark Fire headquarters is fairly complete.
As a soldier rushed in, the sand muttered: "The East City turret is destroyed! There are no turrets in the entire East Side now, so it won't last long! ”
Duan Hao raised his eyebrows and said: “I'll take the reserve! ”
Song Hu grabbed Dong Hao and shook his head: “We only have one last reserve left! This reserve must remain at Headquarters, and you cannot leave. ”
“But the East Side will be broken sooner or later, and their men will rush in!” Duan Hao roared.
Song Hu was calm and said, "Didn't you notice that all the floating boats had no markings? They were reluctant to reveal their identities, so either they brought in a large army and tried to completely raze the Black River City, or they brought only a limited number of troops and they would leave after the looting. If it's the former, it doesn't matter if you go. If it's the latter, you don't have to go either. ”
“You mean...” Duan Hao frowned.
Song Huyin said: “We need to cross the majority of Black River City from East City to us. So many mercenary hunters in the city are now using their hands to resist foreign enemies, and those civilians can use them. I've sent people to distribute weapons. ”
Duan Hao frowned: “Those hunters are nothing but a bunch of people, and the civilians are not very combative. You let them fight each other's elite militia, and the casualties will be enormous. At a time like this, we can still rely on our own people! ”
Song Hu photographed the city's defensive map and said: "What does it have to do with us if they get more casualties? All we have to do is hold Dark Fire Headquarters. Stick around till seven less comes back, and that's victory. ”
When the window suddenly lit up, an orange shell lashed the sky, twisting an armoured gunboat parked at high altitude, and the tail immediately started to ignite. The gunboat had not escaped, and yet another shell hit the gunboat, finally leaving it unable to sustain the buoyancy and slanting out of the city.
The gun was too powerful, the shells were too eye-catching and the air gunboat turned for a while. Dark Fire HQ's air defences are particularly intense, but these floating gunships are bombarding the location of the heavy artillery with desperate effort against an air defense network.
Song Hu's face changed. "It's Miss Nangong and Black Moon! Get over there and protect them! ”
Duan Hao broke out of the window and rushed to the turret where the heavy artillery was located.
The hidden turret caught fire and exploded and burned all over. However, heavy artillery still persisted in returning fire at a rate far exceeding normal heavy artillery fire. In a short period of time, more than a dozen artillery shells were fired, hitting more than half, and two more gunships were shot down. But the number of air battleships was too high, and under the blast, the turret finally couldn't hold up and collapsed.
Two shadows emerged from the fire, and the black moon dragged the Nangong birds out of the flame. Duan Hao rushed over and used his power to protect the two men and cover their retreat to the Dark Fire Headquarters building. When they returned to their headquarters, they did not stop, but followed the secret passage to another location.
A moment later, the firepower of a turret in a dark fire suddenly increased, increasing by more than half in speed and power. Heavy artillery immediately destroyed a floating boat. By the time the unusual turret was destroyed, it had struck down at least four small floating boats.
Song Hu replenished the city's defensive map and cut off a turret with a wake-up target. Looking at these special marks one by one, the pressure in Song Hu's heart is also increasing.
At this moment, outside of Black River City, a floating warship is hovering at high altitudes, and the atmosphere is equally heavy. In the command room, a middle-aged man stood against his hand and looked down at a burning black drifting city without a smile on his face. Everyone in the command room is holding their breath and silence.
At that time, an officer walked in and saw a slight sweat on his forehead, saying: "Master Xu, the commander of the fleet, sent a message that the anti-aircraft fire in Black River City was too strange and fierce, and now the fleet is losing a lot of money, demanding to retreat. ”
The middle-aged man in front of the starboard window coldly said, "No! Let him keep attacking until the last ship! ”
The officer leads the way. The middle-aged man looked at the situation for a while and turned around slowly, coldly: “Is that what you're saying? This kind of firepower, these special heavy artillery, is not often seen in Imperial County, is it? How come you haven't heard anything? What do you eat with all those detectives in town? Can't you get any intel without Nanhua? ”
Everyone bowed their heads and dared not speak.
The middle-aged man shrugged: "Fire! First blow up a section of the city wall, then send all the troops out. If they can't beat the black currents, they don't have to come back. ”
No one dared to violate slightly at this moment, and a few moments later, more than a dozen troop floats flew towards Black River City, landing with artillery fire outside the city and releasing the formations of soldiers.
In the blink of an eye, the fire in the Black Stream City raged around the city. A soldier with a death order has no hesitation, shooting when he sees a living creature. Mercenary hunters in the city, as well as the civilian population, resisted each other and were at a time of fighting, which was extremely intense.
At that time, another officer walked into the command room and said: "General Lu sent word that he had captured Wolf City and defended his army. Now searching for mine holes in Wolf City in case the enemy gets damaged. ”
The middle-aged man looked better when he heard the news. However, not yet happy, another officer rushed in and said, “Urgently! The remnants of the Wolf City defensive army blew down the mine, and General Lu fell into the cave, his life and death are unknown! ”
The middle-aged man finally moved: “They blew up the mine?! ”
“Yes, my lord. ”
The middle-aged man jumped in the corner of his eye, biting his teeth: “What a Song Qi, he did it so hard! ”
The value of the Wolf City mine is well known to the majority of those present and is the main reason for this raid. This mine can be said to be worth even the city, it can't be cared for carefully on weekdays, who wants to get Song Zining to set explosives in the mine pit and blow up the mine. Such an explosion would most likely blow up the mineral vein together. Song Zining actually got his hands on it. This harshness makes people's hearts chill.
Middle-aged men suddenly become anxious and seem to have something to do with it. At this point, a blaze of fire suddenly broke out at night in the distance, and a reconnaissance boat burned to the ground, and through the light, it was possible to see that there were hidden battleships approaching Black River City. Look at that contour. It's a new, sharp battleship of the Imperial Army!
The warships came clearly ill-intentioned, otherwise they would not have come up and shot down a perimeter vigilant reconnaissance boat. Although there were many floating ships besieging Black River City, the models varied and were mostly held hostage by ground artillery, with some damage. In terms of combat power alone, few battleships can compete with rapid arrivals.
Those battleships approached quickly and the fire lit up the crest of the ship. Someone sucked in a breath of cold air in the command room and lost his voice: "Ningyuan Heavy Industries?! That's Song Qi's boat! He has so many warships?! ”
It's not surprising that there are more vintage floating boats, but these are all new and sharp models that, if available, few can afford. Song Zining was able to assemble several units, indicating that Ningyuan Group's strength is now far beyond the expectations.
After shock, the middle-aged man violently saved himself, and if he was raided from behind by this fleet, the consequences would be unthinkable. With that in mind, he immediately ordered: "Send a signal and evacuate all warships from Black River City to assemble at the scheduled location. Flagship forward, intercept Song Qi's fleet! ”
The order was quickly passed out and the flagship took the lead in completing the turn, leading three floating ships to Song Zining's fleet.
Song Zining appeared for the first battleship bow, did not attack immediately, but laughed long and shocked the whole scene: “Which adult is so enthusiastic to visit the black currents? Can you show up at first sight and say thank you in person? ”
Inside the flagship, a middle-aged man thought a little, resolutely walked onto the deck, arching his hand: “Seven small intellects are as deep as the sea, and the layout is delicate and impressive. But this should be the industry of the blood clan for thousands of nights. Maybe there is blood clan remnants. I wonder why the Seven Majorities are here? Haven't I heard that the Seven Majorities were very close to the past of the thousand nights, but also collaborated with the blood clan? ”
Song Zining surveyed the middle-aged man and said: “Turns out it was the third elder of the Kong family. After a long time of hearing that the Third Elders were far-reaching and unwilling. But at first sight today, there was an accident. As the Third Elder, how could the ship not be marked? It's not just the Kong family, is it? ”
The three elders' faces changed slightly, and they said: “Of course, they are all from the Kong family. ”
Song Zining sneered. “I don't think so! In my opinion, there are a lot of bandits and bandits, pretending to do nothing in the name of the Kong family. If I don't see it, I won't let the rats go! Confucius reputation, can't you destroy it? ”
“How about the reputation of the Confucius family? That's the next thing to do. Don't worry about it. ”
Song Zining nodded: “So best. There must be remnants of the blood clan here. I still have to clean up, so I won't delay the three elders. Goodbye! ”
Three elders instinctively felt bad, not waiting for him to say anything, suddenly the light flashed in front of them, several powerful crossbow guns broke into the sky, look at the light on the arrowheads, all clearly against heavy warships of broken arrows!
The Third Elder was shocked and flew away, avoiding the broken armor arrow. But he could avoid it, but the flagship could not avoid it. He ate three broken arrows in a row, and the explosion sounded once, and there was smoke in his eyes, slowing down.
Song Zining's voice came from afar, “You idiots, crude hands and feet, how did you let the crossbow fire!? ”
