Chapter 650 Ivan Deldan under artillery fire


Gunsmoke filled the battlefield, and the sky seemed to be dyed in mottled colors. The two armies faced each other at a distance, and the air was filled with chills.

The dwarves stood still and prepared their troops, but the empire did not rush to attack. Instead, they calmly arranged and formed their troops on the plains.

"Boom——"

Accompanied by a dull sound, the steam car carrying heavy artillery drove on the plains. The ogres dragged the heavy artillery in twos and threes. The imperial troops moved quickly like a mottled torrent, forming a rather orderly formation.

Even the bipedal dragons in the sky were lined up in a formation, circling skillfully in the sky for several times, and then descended to the ground one after another, landing near the supply armored vehicle.

"They are here"

Looking at this scene, the dwarf king frowned.

In his imagination, the army of the Ember Empire should be like the orcs, relying on sharp teeth, hard scales and huge numbers to win. It should be an army composed of cruel and crazy dragon-blooded monsters.

But in fact, the Ember Legion appears to be in good order, even more disciplined and clearer in tactics than the army of the Mountain Kingdom.

Bjorn came to the side of the dwarf king and sighed softly: "Your Majesty, haven't you noticed that the world has changed and a new era of war has arrived.

People from the Harper Alliance sent a lot of news. While we dwarves were still mining and forging iron in the mountains, the firearms of the Empire had spread to all parts of the world."

"So that's it?" Ed lowered his head and smiled helplessly.

The situation is more severe than expected. It seems that letting Zaen lead the tribe to migrate is definitely the right choice, Ed thought.

The dwarves also talked about the empire's military deployment, but they were not afraid, but felt confused and confused.

In the traditional concepts of these brave and reckless dwarves, whoever is stronger, whose weapons are harder, and whoever is less afraid of death can win the war.

As for tactics – what are they?

"What are these damn invaders doing?"

"It doesn't matter, no matter what conspiracy these evil dragons have, we dwarves can smash their heads with hammers!"

"Beasts raised by orcs!"

"Yes, these damn bastards, I want to avenge my dead compatriots!"

The dwarves were filled with indignation and stood on the city wall cursing and talking. They exhausted all the vicious words in their heads, but still couldn't squeeze out many words.

But they have no idea: the empire's artillery force and air force bombing force have been deployed and are ready to launch a ruthless attack on Ayvindeldan.

On the hillside, the hobgoblin general Dror raised the saber in his hand high, and the sharp tip shone in the sunlight.

Delor's face was full of high spirits. He looked at Ivan Deldan in the distance and ordered in a deep voice: "The whole army listens to the order - open fire!"

The saber suddenly swung down, and the clear command sounded through the transmitter throughout the Ember Legion, reaching the ears of every officer and soldier.

"Firepower coverage!"

Three hundred and twenty-seven heavy guns and the main guns of 86 tanks fired in unison. These steel war machines made a deafening roar, and terrible flames bloomed from the thick barrels.

"Boom——"

In an instant, artillery fire exploded, setting off billowing dust and smoke, making the sky tremble and the earth roar.

At this moment, gray-brown trails appeared on the sky, like bloody scars scratched by sharp claws.

I saw those cannonballs dragging firelight, drawing graceful arcs in the air, and blasting toward the majestic dwarf fortress from a distance of thousands of meters.

"God, what is that?"

"Then, what is that thing? How is it possible? This is thousands of meters away!" The dwarves finally became a little panicked.

Looking up at such a grand scene, even the battle-hardened Ed suddenly changed his expression and murmured to himself: "Father God Moradin is here"

At this moment, he finally understood the meaning of "a new era of war" in Bjorn's words.

Soon, the dwarf king realized that something was wrong. He quickly turned his head and shouted at the dwarves: "No! Quick, activate the protective circle!"

Because the enemy was still thousands of meters away, the priests and mages of the Alpine Kingdom were completely unprepared. They were even waiting for the opponent's advance, not expecting the cannonballs to fall from the sky.

But at this time, the cannonball had already reached the sky above Avendeldan and was falling rapidly towards the city wall - it was too late.

"Boom!"

There was a deafening sound, and dozens of shells exploded, creating a terrible explosion, bursting into flames and thick smoke.

The entire city wall was shaking violently, countless rubble fell, and even a large section of the city wall collapsed on the spot. Many dwarves were engulfed in flames, and some were blown away directly.

With just one round of shelling, many wounds appeared on the originally majestic walls of Avendeldan, and hundreds of dwarves were buried in the sea of ​​fire.

You must know that after Zeen led his tribe to migrate and the Grinding Road fell, there were only more than 9,700 dwarf warriors in Avendeldan, and the loss of hundreds of people was already considered heavy.

What's more, they haven't even come into contact with the imperial army, this is just a long-distance bombardment!

No, to be more precise - it was a unilateral strike!

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Cannonballs exploded one after another, and the fierce fire and smoke almost swallowed up the city wall. The broken shrapnel could easily cut off the dwarf's arms and even his head.

"Boom!"

A cannonball exploded just in the middle of the crowded crowd. The explosion swallowed up the dwarf warriors who were caught off guard. When the smoke dissipated, only a dozen charred bodies were left.

As the king, Ed witnessed this scene with his own eyes and was immediately worried. His people were being slaughtered!

They didn't even die in heroic battles, but were brutally killed by the other side's magical weapons that could create explosions!

"Damn! Can't wait any longer!"

Ed gritted his teeth and pressed his hands on the ground, his whole body emitting an earthy yellow light. He did not hesitate to consume the little remaining vitality to activate the protective magic circle on the city wall.

"Buzz——"

The shelter of the mountains!

Along with a buzzing sound, the ancient Dwarf runes on the walls of Avendeldan suddenly lit up.

The ground rumbled and roared continuously, and the majestic power of the mountains climbed up the city wall, gradually forming a thick shield to block the bombardment of the cannonballs.

At the same time, Ed raised the war hammer in his hand, raised his head to the sky, and let out a loud roar.

In an instant, an earthy yellow light bloomed from the war hammer, and countless broken rocks rose into the air, intercepting dozens of cannonballs, causing them to explode in the air.

Not only the dwarf king, but the strong men among the dwarves also used their own methods. They either shot arrows or threw rocks to block the empire's cannonballs.

There was even a certain reckless dwarf berserker who jumped high into the air, faced the difficulty, and used a jump chop against the high-speed falling cannonballs, leaving himself disgraced and covered in shrapnel.

However, the imperial offensive was far from over. The artillery bombardment was just the appetizer, followed closely by the air raid.

"Buzz——"

An eardrum-piercing explosion resounded across the sky, and dozens of bipedal flying dragons were seen lining up in a neat queue, piercing the sky and swooping in like sharp arrows.

The outer edges of these wyverns' wings are equipped with sharp metal membranes, allowing them to easily cut the air and create a harsh sound.

It can not only cause physical damage to the enemy, but also bring psychological deterrence. To this day, many Aesir people will tremble when they hear this sound, and will think of that terrible bombing.

Looking at the menacing bipedal flying dragon in the distance, Ed secretly thought something was wrong and quickly reminded: "Be careful of those flying dragons!"

"Shua——"

The two-legged flying dragon passed by Avendeldan at high speed, and bombs fell like raindrops, landing on the heads of the dwarves and exploding one after another. "Boom! Boom! Boom!"

A series of explosions occurred at the top of the city. The raging flames once again swallowed up large swaths of dwarves, and wailing sounds echoed at the top of the city.

"Moradin on top!"

"Ah, my arm!"

The shelter of the mountains can withstand the artillery shells hitting the city walls, but it is difficult to stop the bombs falling from the sky.

But when the dwarves raised their heads and wanted to fight back, the flying dragon had already climbed high into the sky and disappeared.

Seeing his people being killed one by one, Ed gradually built up anger in his heart.

"Boom!"

A bomb exploded directly next to him, but it was blocked by the protective spiritual light emitted from Ed's body. It did not hurt him at all, but made him look a little embarrassed.

The dwarf king didn't care about his burnt face, shook his head and whispered: "No, the fate of my people should not be like this! They should not die so meaninglessly"

Looking at the dragons flying in formation again, Ed's eyes were bloodshot, and he was about to burst into anger: "I want you to pay for your debt with blood!"

Somewhere on the city wall, the dwarf crossbowmen were struggling to move the exaggerated steel crossbows that were more than three meters high, appearing to be in a hurry.

Ed walked forward with a stern face, suppressing the anger in his heart, and growled: "You go away, let me come!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The dwarf crossbowmen quickly got out of the way and did not dare to interfere again.

Ed came to the steel crossbow, moved skillfully, and steadily placed the arrow on the crossbow machine.

Then, he held the crossbow arm with one hand and aimed at the flying dragon in the distance, while the other hand turned the huge winch and pulled the crossbow string, accumulating a huge force.

Finally, with ear-piercing screams, the group of bipedal dragons flew into the range of the dwarf steel crossbows at extremely fast speeds.

"Go to hell!"

With a slight pull of the trigger, the arrow carried huge kinetic energy and shot out of the air, instantly piercing the two flying dragons.

"Ouch——"

The wyvern fell from the sky wailing, and the pilot behind it also fell and died soon after.

However, the dragon group still maintained its original formation, filled in by the flying dragons at the rear, and continued to fly at high speed in the direction of Avendel Dan.

The iron wings cut through the sky, and the death-like scream came from high in the sky again.

"How dare you come here? Damn reptile."

Seeing this scene, Ed looked angry and stared at the dragons in the distance. His muscles were tense and his veins were bulging.

The dwarf king roared angrily, exuding an earthy yellow halo: "Family of the evil dragon, let me show you -"

"Boom!"

With a roar and dust flying, the city wall under Ed's feet trembled a few times, and clear footprints appeared.

I saw Ed jumping high. With the blessing of the power of the mountains, this legendary dwarf warrior actually jumped hundreds of meters in height, as if flying in the air.

He broke through the clouds and was already above the group of flying dragons!

Facing the oncoming flying dragons, Ed raised his war hammer high and shouted hoarsely: "We dwarves have the power of being the sons of the mountains!"

The head of the metal war hammer emitted a bright yellow light, carrying terrifying kinetic energy and power as it shot through the air.

I saw the dwarf king falling rapidly towards the group of dragons, and the extremely majestic shadow of the mountains appeared behind him, as if he was carrying an entire black stone mountain on his back and crushing him!

"Suffer death——"

"Boom!"

The metal war hammer hit the chest of the leading flying dragon, and a powerful shock wave was released high in the sky, creating a terrifying storm.

In an instant, under this terrifying force, the leading bipedal flying dragon exploded in the air, turning into blood flowers all over the sky, falling like rain, leaving not even a relatively complete body left.

And this is just the beginning!

A bright yellow hurricane swept across the sky, mixed with endless sand and gravel, and continued to attack the many bipedal flying dragons behind it.

"Ouch——"

In this terrible storm, the wyverns screamed and flapped their wings, trying to escape, but they still could not escape the fate of being strangled into pieces.

Some of the bombs in Feilong's footsteps were triggered and exploded in the air, swallowing up the bombardier instead.

In an instant, under the attack of the legendary dwarf warriors, all twelve bipedal flying dragons in this bombing formation were slaughtered, leaving them defenseless.

The blood and minced flesh of the flying dragon were scattered all over the sky, and Ed plummeted to the ground from a high altitude, creating a deep pit in the ground.

Dust was flying around and the ground was shaking, but the dwarf himself was unscathed. He just held the warhammer in his hand and stared at the Ember Legion in the distance.

"Bang!"

Loud gunshots resounded through the sky, and a bullet spanned a distance of more than a thousand meters and hit the dwarf king's head.

Immediately afterwards, gunshots rang out from different directions, and several more bullets came, aiming at the dwarf's eyebrows, neck, heart and other fatal parts.

——That is the sniper of the empire. After many years of war experience, the empire often sets up a dozen sniper rifles to shoot the strong men on the opposite side.

In the North IJssel War, many extraordinary-level IJJ warriors died inexplicably due to concentrated fire from sniper rifle bullets.

However, after years of strength, Ed's intuition is like prophecy, and his perception is far beyond what ordinary people can match.

The dwarf king had long anticipated the danger. He clenched his warhammer and swung it sideways.

Countless pieces of gravel followed the command and collided with the bullets in the air, changing the trajectory of the bullets in mid-air, causing them to deviate from their original directions.

Ed picked up the hot bullet casing on the ground, stared at the exquisite patterns on it, and whispered: "Anti-magic rune, piercing rune."

"Bang!"

Several more bullets hit, and cannonballs dropped from the sky, but the dwarf king just raised his head calmly and raised his warhammer with one hand.

"You can block it so easily?"

Behind the Ember Empire's position, the hobgoblin general Dror was observing the dwarf king through a telescope, watching him easily resist the empire's special enchanted bullets.

Dror shook his head and sighed: "Tsk, tsk, he is indeed the famous Lord of the Mountains. He does have a few tricks up his sleeve."

Immediately, he turned around and ordered to the adjutant beside him: "Tell Colonel Mir not to send any more air force formations. There is no need to consume our dragons in this war.

In addition, the foreplay is almost done, and we are ready for a full-scale attack! "Droll grinned, as if he had seen the bright future of being promoted to Duke.

"Yes, General."

Under Dror's order, the huge steel beasts began to move, roaring sounds filled the battlefield, and the ground began to tremble again.

The real siege battle has begun! (End of chapter)
