Chapter 359: Saturation Bombing

At 1 a.m. on December 20, 1989, 24,000 U.S. troops took advantage of the darkness of the night to launch a fierce surprise attack on 27 important targets of the Panamanian army at the same time. Missiles, tank shells and mortar shells rain down on targets. Then, paratroopers descended from the sky. The commander of the Pakistani National Defense Forces and the head of the political fΗ”, Noriega, commanded the Pakistani army and the paramilitary "Dignity Battalion" to resist and the fighting was very fierce. However, due to being outnumbered, he lost the ability to organize resistance in only 8 hours. In just 15 hours, the U.S. forces took control of most of the Pakistani barracks and overthrew Noriega. At 8:48 p.m. on January 3, 1990, Noriega was forced to surrender to the U.S. military. At this point, a 15-day war of aggression against Pakistan, codenamed "Operation Just Cause," basically came to an end.

The guiding ideology of the US military's invasion of Pakistan is: On the basis of regular drills, the US military will quickly enter at night with overwhelmingly superior forces, and at the same time launch an attack on 27 targets of the Pakistani army, so as to destroy the Noriega regime and the Pakistani defense forces in one fell swoop. The principles of engagement for the U.S. invasion of Pakistan are: minimum casualties, minimum collateral damage, and protection of American lives.

At ten o'clock in the evening, the express military information was transmitted to Scottel? Thornmas's desk.

Jonny was killed in battle;

"Bloodclaw" Frankie becomes a guardian hero;

June Sunshine escaped safe and sound;

Half of the infantry regiment was completely wiped out by the super-rank demonic beasts......

As soon as this bad news appeared, Scott's face was a little unsightly. The crimson 'color' of his right hand flashed, and the document burned. The ashes were blown up by the updraft, piece by piece, flying around him like bats.

"Early tomorrow morning, all the troops in the vicinity will be mobilized to encircle and suppress the June sun. What about guardian heroes? He can't do anything in the sun. ”

A staff member who was so sleepy that he couldn't open his eyelids was completely sobered up by this sentence, and hurriedly said: "My lord, if you send all the troops, you can't hide it!" This is **'naked' declaration of war! ”

"What about war? If we kill their guardian heroes and kings, why should they go to war with us? All the sacrifices of today are a foreshadowing of future victories. Scotter's fingers tapped on the desk, and the lingering fingers knocked out a scorch mark. You just have to analyze the success rate of this operation. ”

"About eighty percent." "More than eighty percent, but there is no guarantee that the 'Blood Claw' will be eliminated." "If you follow my method, it's about ninety percent." The staff replied one after another.

The Bone Tyrant doesn't have an army by his side, and that's his biggest weakness. At most, he can slaughter one or two cities, but he can't deal a heavy blow to the entire kingdom of Astant, and on the other hand, Astante can crush him with a single military operation. "Junesunshine acting as an adventurer" is not the same concept as "Junesunshine acting as the lord of the Dusk Empire", the former is much easier to bully.

Just then, another military intelligence message arrived.

A large number of flying necromantic creatures have traveled from afar from the Dusk Empire into Astant, where they have begun to diverge, raiding towns and villages they encounter along the way.

On Saturday night at 8-9 p.m., there was a big 'chaos' on the border of Astant, Jonny was killed in battle, and Frankie became a guardian hero...... These news were put on the forum for the first time, setting off a new hot 'tide'. Of course, there are also people who associate the news of "birds flying west" with it, speculating that the result is: the Twilight Empire is playing a big game of chess.

Depending on the species, flocks of birds entering the territory of Astante begin to diverge. The Night Peregrine Falcon heads southwest, the Rotting Vulture heads northwest, and Phoenix the Abomination heads straight west with a miscellaneous flight abomination. Each tributary is home to a large number of Abomination Griffons and Abomination Wyverns.

Every time it flew to a habit, the Abomination Wyvern would let out a long roar, and the rest of the birds would immediately move out of the way from below it. Abomination of the bipedal wyvern spewing black fire like dragon's breath, the ball of filth? The saturation bombardment was relentlessly launched, and one after another tarnished meteors fell from the sky. The houses and the woods burned in the black fire, and the humans were roasted to dried corpses, their faces melted in the dark elements.

The Abomination Gryphon flies low, skillfully 'intertwining' through the streets, harvesting lives with poisonous winds and filthy orbs. The birds, on the other hand, fell like arrows, detonating the "concentrated roaring detonators" buried in their bodies, destroying the walls and towers.

"Shoot the arrows!"

Under the orders of the commander, the archers were free to 'shoot', but unfortunately their eyesight was mostly weakened at night, and only veterans who had stepped into the advanced level could 'shoot' their targets by feeling. After they 'shot' a few Abominable Griffins, they were immediately covered in endless black fire and died. And in the sky, beyond the reach of these veterans, the Abomination Wyvern soars unhurriedly, as if mocking them.

At the same time, in a certain aristocratic mansion in a certain city, the gorgeous buildings have lost their former color, and the black flames dance wildly in the gardens and courtyards, devouring the servants who are screaming wildly. In front of the heavy wrought iron 'door', a young man in slightly shabby clothes kept smashing the lock of the 'door' with stones, clanging and clanging, but the big 'door' remained unmoved; on the other side of the 'door', a beautiful young 'woman' in an expensive silk dress fell to her knees crying, looking haggard and looking at the 'door' that only knew how to shake, looking so helpless.

Eventually, the young man threw the stone in a fit of rage and sighed, "I can't open it." ”

"Forget it, let's go." The young 'girl' seemed to be awakened, and her eyes lit up. She wiped her tears and smiled: "As long as you live." ”

The young man was stunned for a moment, then smiled as well. He sat down, knelt in front of the 'door', put his hand through the railing of the big 'gate', and held the trembling soft wattle: "Fool, how could I leave you?" ”

"You, you're stupid...... "The young woman's eyes were full of tears, and she couldn't help crying again, but she grabbed her lover's hand tighter. The next moment, the two of them were burning in flames.

At the same time, at a certain 'gate' in a certain village, the awakened villagers rushed out. A husband and wife struggle through the crowd, the husband elbows his wife out of a pitifully small space, while the wife clings to the fruit of their love, their three-month-old child. The child cried loudly, and the cry was loud, overshadowing everyone's noise, but others just turned a blind eye to this family.

"Okay, okay!" The husband shouted, "Whoever has a carriage, please take my wife and children away!" ”

Suddenly, there was a terrible sound of wind in the air, and several abomination griffons flew low, and a group of people fell to the ground screaming, their bodies corroded by the dark elements and carved out large 'holes', and their clothes and flesh stuck together from their wounds. The husband was also unfortunately shot, and a fist-sized hole was empty in his left chest, and the remnants of his heart could be seen beating when he looked inside, so blood gushed out.

The wife looked at her husband in disbelief, the life that was fresh a second ago had passed in this second. Unable to soothe the crying child, she reached out to 'touch' her husband's face, but was knocked away by a forceβ€”a certain abomination griffin landed beside her, flapping its wings casually, just flapping her over.

She felt empty in her arms, and when she looked at it again, she found that the child had fallen in front of the monster, and her voice was sharp and terrifying: "Don't! Only he can't-"

The griffin abomination tilted its head, pecked open the baby's skull, and sucked the brain. The child immediately stopped crying, while the mother began to cry hysterically.

It's a one-sided war.

Referring to many examples of modern military warfare, Scowl boldly adopted America's favorite tactic: saturation bombing. In the Korean War, the Vietnam War, the Gulf War, and the Iraq War, bombers accounted for a considerable proportion of the US military strength, especially in the Panama War and the air raid on the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia.

At present, the treasury of the Dusk Empire is not an ordinary emptiness, and even if all the "roaring bombs" are used, there is no guarantee that the combat mission will be completed, so the Joint Research Center has found a different way to replace the explosives with the area of effect "sex" skill, and this design concept has created the Abomination Wyvern (between light bombers and medium bombers), and put it into use for the first time against the Holy See fleet. Although the effect was good, there were too few raw materials (corpses) to produce the most deterrent heavy bomber, and Skoll muttered about it for a long time. Even so, the bombardment was limited to just over a dozen targets (tactical maps mapped by Oskol), which was enough to panic the population, but not enough to break Astant's bones. The bombing was limited to surface buildings, and as long as you hid in the basement, you still had no worries about your 'life'.

Scowl also instructed not to bomb embassies of other countries. Human beings are indifferent and selfish, and in the eyes of the countries of the mainland, the slaughter of an ally is not worth the destruction of their own embassy, so as long as they do not anger other countries, no one will stand up for Astant.

Of course, this set of tactics is not a panacea. The Necromantic Beast will violently consume soul energy when it activates its skills, and when the intention of saturation bombardment is achieved, these tens of thousands of soldiers may not be able to fly back to the Dusk Empire, that is to say, this army led by Phoenix Abomination Phoenix is just a team of cannon fodder that runs out and is abandoned. It was to keep the cannon fodder last an hour or two that Brian designed the Abomination Phoenix, which replenishes the Abomination Flying Class with Death and Soul Energy. Within eight hours of takeoff, there would be no abomination left behind in the middle of the road.

Now, Phoenix half-squinted his 'gloomy' eyes and flapped his wings silently. Inky blue 'colored' flames erupted from behind its buttocks, dragging hundreds of meters long, like tail feathers. Whenever a necromantic beast is about to run out of oil, they will consciously change formations, pass through the tail feathers that the living will never dare to touch, and then, as the adventurer said, "resurrect in place full of blood". I don't know how many Abomination Wyverns and how many Abomination Griffins have drawn energy from Phoenix, but Phoenix still has the strength to spare, and his flight altitude has not dropped a bit, and his head is always pointed at the capital of Astant.

If you don't make a move, you must kill people, this is Skoll's definition of this operation.

On the other side of the continent, Field Marshal Scott drew a circle on the map with a pen: "We are here to volley." Can't let those monsters come to the capital. ”
