Chapter 1708, fundamentally solve the problem
The foreign coalition forces have proven with actual actions that although Hydra is a powerful strategic unit, if the opponent thinks that just one Hydra can push back their human army with their eyes closed, then they are really thinking too much.
Although the combat effectiveness of the dark elves declined, and the fact that the dark elf mage troops and marauder ballista units did not participate in the battle was also one of the main reasons, the fact that the human army output firepower was ferocious was a fact that had to be acknowledged.
At this moment, Delk undoubtedly felt a certain amount of pressure.
It is indeed a very troublesome move for the opponent to surround the fortress and cut off the supply of supplies to their rear, but it can only go so far.
"Colonel Dandy, how many days' worth of supplies are left in this fortress?"
The tone of Delk's question was a bit anti-customer. It was obvious that they were the supreme commanders of this fortress.
However, for this kind of thing, Colonel Dandy could only curse a few words in his heart. They still had to hold on to the dark elf's thigh in front of them a little tighter.
"Reporting to General Delk, the supplies in the fortress can probably last for two months, but if we want to break through, it will take half a month if we want to get to the next fortress, no matter how fast it is."
Delk nodded after hearing this.
"Well."
While speaking, Delk turned his head and looked at the soldier beside him.
"Give me the order and prepare to break out in one month!"
He obviously wanted to allow the dark elf mage troops under his command to recover for as many days as possible, but at the same time, for the sake of safety, he did not dare to press the time too tight and had to leave some room.
They will rest for a month first. If they can break through successfully, they will have enough supplies left to evacuate to the next fortress.
And if the breakout fails, they still have half a month to make a second or even third breakout.
In this way, it is obvious that the continent will be peaceful for a while.
For at least a month, Delk, as the supreme commander of the dark elf army, has no plans to break out of the encirclement.
As for the foreign coalition forces, it is obvious that they will not cause trouble for themselves.
At this time, instead of attacking the fortress where Hydra is stationed and making yourself uncomfortable, it is better to lay mines around it.
After all, the risk of fighting head-on is too high, so the only way to win is to focus on other aspects and make use of strengths and avoid weaknesses.
Now, let us temporarily shift our perspective to another continent.
Chris Evans has not been living a very peaceful life these days.
In the sky, the spiral sound caused by the high-speed rotation of the helicopter's propeller made every nerve of the soldiers stationed in the fortress tense.
The arrival of the Tang and Song Dynasty dwarf helicopter troops allowed Hua Ye to quickly launch an offensive.
But as mentioned before, helicopters have excellent maneuverability within a certain area, but their limited load capacity is a flaw.
The size of the load often determines how many aerial bombs you can carry, and has a direct impact on the destructive power of aerial bombing.
In other words, the power of airdrop bombing is weak, coupled with the constant harassment attacks of the harpies on the opposite side, facing the tightly guarded dark elf defenders, several waves of air strikes failed to achieve very good results.
Hua Ye clicked his tongue in displeasure.
At the same time, on the other side, in Hua Ye's rear camp, a group of uninvited guests dropped from the sky that day!
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!!"
Looking at the large harpy that swept over like a dark cloud, the soldiers in the camp below shouted loudly, and at the same time, the alarm sounded.
Upon hearing the sirens, a large number of soldiers rushed out with rifles in hand.
No nonsense, the enemy unit in the air was locked at the first moment, and the next second, the sound of intensive gunshots filled the entire camp.
Facing the bullet attack, the harpies in the air were not afraid to flinch. When they got closer, they screamed loudly.
The negative BUFF spreads rapidly along with the sound waves. It is no exaggeration to say that the harpy's negative BUFF is simply difficult to avoid. Basically, the moment their screams sound, you have already been hit.
Maintaining the state of constantly releasing negative BUFF, affecting the attacks of human infantry, the harpies had a clear target and quickly rushed towards the airships parked in the open space in the distance for maintenance!
Obviously, this is the main reason why they appear here.
Chris Evans undoubtedly knew in his heart that Hua Ye's airship force posed a great threat to him. Once the opponent's airship force was repaired and put into battle again, then he would
The defense line of that mountain fortress is very likely to be blasted flat by the opponent!
In order to prevent the entire war situation from evolving into a situation like this, Chris Evans undoubtedly wants to fundamentally solve the problem.
As mentioned earlier, in fact, the gap in comprehensive strength between top-ranked players will never be too big. The further forward, the smaller the gap, so when they fight, it depends on two aspects.
In the first aspect, exploiting strengths and avoiding weaknesses, the most representative example is undoubtedly the highly biased Pompeii Rand. His combat effectiveness at sea and on land are simply two extremes.
The second aspect is to see who has the stronger ultimate card, or whose ultimate card can overwhelm the opponent and make a winning move.
The airship force is undoubtedly Hua Ye's ultimate trump card. The bombing intensity of the dwarf helicopters is simply not enough. As long as this airship force is finished, Hua Ye still has a clear advantage in terms of military strength with the Chinese army in his hands.
, but it would be a dream to break through his mountain fortress within a year and a half!
And by that time, his army of dark elves should be back!
I have to say that Chris Evans made this plan very loudly.
However, Hua Ye is not a fool. He cannot be unprepared. He knows better than anyone how much that guy Chris Evans wants to kill his airship troops.
Under this premise, the opponent also has Harpy troops, which can carry out sneak attacks from the air.
He would be really stupid if he didn't guard against this move!
Although considering the fighting on the front line, it was impossible for him to leave too many garrison troops in this camp, there were still 3,000 soldiers equipped with bolt-action rifles.
As soon as the harpy that flew over to try to destroy the airship appeared, three thousand infantrymen in a shooting formation began to shoot into the air.
Compared with early manual rifles, the range of bolt-action rifles has also been greatly improved. As soon as the harpies get close, they will definitely enter their attack range!
