Chapter 107: Decisive Battle in the Air
A three-masted merchant ship flashed its cannon and headed towards the two troop transports, a change that went unnoticed by the elves at first. The two troop carriers on our side were converted from three-masted merchant ships, and the original cargo compartment was more comfortable, making it easier for soldiers to stay in it. Although the lower and middle guns were removed from the tanks during the renovation of the cabins, the number of guns on the upper deck was increased to 16.
Eight guns on one side, two ships are sixteen, and in terms of firepower, two troop carriers are much more than a three-masted merchant ship...... The elves wished that this war would be fought like this.
The three-masted merchant ship was still sailing towards the troop carrier, as if in a hurry to die.
However, when a large number of griffons from the enemy fleet took off and flew together across the battlefield against the troop transports, led by a royal griffin knight, the elves finally sensed their intentions.
Now there are two options in front of the escort fleet, one is to ignore the troop carriers, use the Pegasus Knights to directly attack the enemy's main fleet, as long as they can cut their sails, the victory or defeat of this battle will fall in favor of the escort fleet. However, their own troop carriers will also be stopped at sea by griffins, this is a ship with more than 200 unicorns and unicorns, the defense of troop carriers is already weak, if the opponent's three-masted merchant ships are bombarded from behind the stern, the two troop carriers are estimated to not be able to withstand a few rounds of shelling.
And where is it on your own side? The five enemy ships have begun to shift into a circular defensive formation, and even if the Pegasus Knights stop them all at sea, it will take more time to win.
In other words, when the two troop carriers are sunk by the other side, their side may not be able to end the battle, and they will lose more than 200 unicorns, and the escort fleet can directly sink itself and apologize.
Another option is to send Pegasus Knight to support the troop carrier, as long as his side engages the enemy ship and drags the opponent's flagship, and the Pegasus Knight escorts the troop carrier, the battle can be won safely.
The results of the two choices did not make Lucius hesitate too much, and his only thirteen Pegasus Knights immediately took to the air after a little food to recover their strength, and under the leadership of the Silver Pegasus Knights hero, they flew towards their troop carriers.
Seeing that the enemy's Pegasus Knight was successfully mobilized, Da Liang shouted to Shu Xiao: "Turn around, turn around, entangle the Pegasus Knight, and my ship will support the past." ”
After receiving the order, Shu Xiao took the griffins in a circle in the air, and then pounced on the Pegasus knights. The Blackfire swerved at full rudder and headed toward the sea beneath the warring airspace.
In the face of the griffon's back-and-forth attack, the Pegasus Knights had no intention of flinching. They are a slight numerical disadvantage, but they are two levels higher than the griffins. And as far as the heroes of the commander are concerned, their own Silver Pegasus Knight heroes are much stronger than the opposing Royal Griffin Knights, which is not only a comparison of hero strength, but also means that the hero bonus of Pegasus Knight is higher than that of the Griffin.
Therefore, the griffons, who have lost the cooperation of the archers, are probably no match for these twelve Pegasus knights in pure air combat.
The Silver Pegasus Knight Hero led the cavalry in front, and after looking at the oncoming griffons and the three-masted merchant ships approaching below, he ordered his subordinates: "Keep your speed, don't get caught by griffins." Keep an eye out for enemy ships with advanced ranged casters on them, and keep the battlefield out of range of the caster class as much as possible. The enemy clearly wants to take out us here, but they overestimate the speed of the three-masted merchant ship. Brothers, let's fly and kill them all, victory belongs to the elves! ”
"Victory belongs to the elves!"
The Pegasus Knights collide with the griffons with a shout.
Once again, the flying classes of the two sides clashed, with Pegasus and Griffin flying in arcs in the air, tracking each other, and being pounced on by another enemy at any moment as they attacked the enemy in front of them.
The chirping of eagles and the neighing of pegasus mingle as two of the most prestigious aerial warriors will be separated from each other here.
Shu Xiao faced the silver Pegasus Knight Knight hero again, just like the feeling he had just faced, Shu Xiao, who was pressed by the gap in rank, was a little breathless. The superb speed of the silver Pegasus gives it excellent maneuverability in the air, and in this open airspace, without the influence of sails and rigging, the strength of the hero of the Silver Pegasus Knight is fully exploded.
Can't beat it at all?
Shu Xiao realized that he and Da Liang were too optimistic when arranging their tactics, without the support and cover of archers, and the poor class level and hero level, so that their griffins were no match for Pegasus Knight at all. In this short confrontation, Shu Xiao saw that two griffons had been killed on his side, and he was in danger of being killed at any time.
Shu Xiao, who was carrying a portable game lander, shouted loudly to Da Liang sitting beside him: "Master, help!" ”
"Here, you have to hold on."
When the griffin and the Pegasus knight were in a scuffle, Da Liang realized that there was a big difference in the biological strength of the two sides. This kind of gap is just like on the battlefield at the mouth of the stone cave, the difference in strength between yourself and the enemy hero causes the strength of the two arms.
But on the battlefield at the entrance of the stone cave, Da Liang's walking corpses have an absolute advantage in numbers, and one can't beat two. Now the griffin can't do more than one situation.
Therefore, when Da Liang realized that the strength of the two sides was too great for the griffin to hold back the Pegasus Knight, he immediately jumped on the back of the royal griffin and flew towards the aerial battlefield.
At this time, two more griffons were killed, and only one of the Pegasus knights died.
"The Great Law of Slowness"
A spell was thrown at the Silver Pegasus Knight, but it was easily dodged by the opponent, and the hit rate of this kind of air spell casting on high-speed moving units was really low.
Fortunately, this magic also temporarily made Shu Xiao in danger, she adjusted the flight attitude of the royal griffin, dodged the sneak attack of a Pegasus knight, and quickly asked Da Liang: "How to fight?" If we don't find a way, we'll all die here. ”
But Da Liang didn't see any urgency, he smiled: "Don't be afraid, look at it as the division's floating cannon." ”
"Floating cannon?" Shu Xiao, who was in a fantasy game, was suddenly confused by the Niu B weapon on the sci-fi side, "Master, are you scared and confused?" ”
"What are you scared of, quickly command your griffin to lure the Pegasus knights to concentrate, and the floating cannon is about to be released for the division?"
Da Liang continued to approach the battlefield.
Although he didn't know what tricks Da Liang planned to play, Shu Xiao still commanded the griffin to lure the Pegasus knights to concentrate.
Then I heard Da Liang shout: "Go, magic mage, throw all your state magic to this group of Pegasus knights until the 'Great Law of Slowness' appears." ”
