The Fortress Six cannon was the same artillery crew that Vanner had patrolled before the attack, and because of its proximity to the edge of the position, it suffered little from any other attack except for two waves of spears, and compared to the guns that had been staggered by the dinosaurs, it only needed to be replenished and reinstated.

Less than a minute after receiving the parameters, the fortress cannon erupted in the direction of the target!

The distance of two kilometers made the arc of the shell extremely low, and both human soldiers and devils on the battlefield heard the special whistling sound produced by the warhead whistling by-

But the difference is that the latter ushered in an earth-shattering roar!

The palpitating Lord of War is back in its realm once again!

The accuracy of the large-caliber guns at this distance was no longer erratic, and the first round landed exactly at the feet of a creeper - the violent explosion directly overturned half of its body, and the open shell was gone, completely exposing the flesh inside.

Along with the killed, there is also a team of mad demons guarding the creeper.

Looking at their posture, it is obvious that they are on guard against the witch's surprise attack, but under the pressure of the mortar, they have to curl up next to the "big spider" lying on their stomachs, hoping to rely on the outer limbs of the stone to block the flying shrapnel.

However, in the face of the difference in caliber, this move became meaningless, and the energy generated by the explosion was easily transferred to them through the creepers.

In the blink of an eye, the shockwave shattered the demons' internal organs and bones, causing their seemingly stable bodies to ripple like water ripples, and when the dust fell to the ground, all that was left was corpses scattered all around the heartburst.

"Hit!" Sylvie couldn't help but wave his fist, "The next target is ...... 12 degrees 6 minutes and 2480 meters away!"

"No problem, support will be there soon!"

At the same time, the devil, suffering from mortar shelling, finally entered the area of the first kilometer of the position.

Just when everyone thought that the war was about to be decided, the enemy's offensive came to an abrupt end.

The whole process lasted less than ten minutes.

At one point, the mad demon at the front approached within 500 meters of the northern slope of Wang, in front of the first barbed wire.

But that's about it.

Without the threat of the dinosaurs, all the machine gun squads on the front line, including the anti-aircraft machine guns, aimed their guns at the swarming enemy.

The entire battlefield can almost be described as boiling for a while.

The First Army's firepower was no match for what it had been at the Battle of Coldwind Ridge, when a limited number of heavy machine guns were carefully placed in pillboxes and only used against the most threatening targets, and now they were able to tilt ammunition at any enemy who stepped into range—even if it was a "squander" that lasted only one battle.

The 500-meter stretch became a hunting ground for the precision firing team in the first trench.

Devils don't usually pay attention to obstacles like barbed wire, and their bodies are strong enough to jump over or uproot stakes.

But in the eyes of a sniper, this is no different from killing oneself.

When the devil realizes that he can't get within the throw of the spear anyway, the collapse is no longer controllable - it has nothing to do with discipline and morale, but more like the instinctive despair of the beast.

After dropping nearly a thousand corpses in front of the line, they turned and retreated like a tide, and in the process, the machine guns remained open until the barrels were roasted red.

Compared with the fierce battles in the rear positions, the front line seemed to be a little calm.

Sylvie was finally relieved, I am afraid that only she knew how thrilling the "ace showdown" was two kilometers away. The last two creepers' mana vortex was already full, and just as they were about to be activated, the revised No. 1 and No. 3 fortress cannons made up for it in time.

If it had been a second or two late, the pillar would have inflicted more damage on the First Army, which was in the midst of a firefight.

Either way, humanity won the battle – re-entering this forgotten land after four hundred years of silence, humanity finally got its way back from the devil.

......

By the time Roland got the detailed report from the front, it was already four days later.

Due to the success of the battle, the First Army spent a lot of energy cleaning up the battlefield - according to Tachira's experience, the first thing to do was to burn the corpse of the devil and take all the magic stones.

The latter, in particular, cannot be considered a complete victory if it cannot take the magic stone from the enemy's body. If it is recovered by the other party, it will soon appear in a new demon.

The final statistics were also very staggering, almost more than 6,000 devils died in this ambush, which is more than the total number of participants in the First Army.

Less than half of them were killed by artillery and machine guns - most of the devils died in the red mist, lying scattered on the way they came.

The opponent was not unprepared, and in the post-war inventory, the First Army found more than a dozen siege beasts converted into vehicles, not counting scrap that had been blown into parts. If the humans were at a disadvantage, they could have taken their time to replenish the fog pots, but the rout made it all come to naught. With the red mist it carried, retreating from the outpost to the ruins of Tachira was a dead end.

"If I'm not mistaken, those siege beast witches can use it, right?" Roland said to the Listening Sigil.

"You're right, the core of this thing is the magic stone, and with a little training," the respondent changed from an iron axe to Zoe, "although it is slower, it can carry a lot of things, and the Federation has used it to carry long distances instead of mules and horses." ”

It seemed good to hand them over to the Ministry of Construction, Roland thought to himself, the engineering team was just short of a batch of vehicles, and the slow speed was a plus in the city.

It's a pity that the most seized throwing magic stone is of little use - it needs to be combined with a magical lifeform to play its full role, and it is a special magic stone for the devil race, and it is generally brought back to the rear for centralized destruction.

"By the way, how the hell did the enemy evade Sylvie's detection?"

"Let me answer that question," Agatha cleared her throat, "and after the battle, we conducted a thorough search of the outpost and found an underground passage that connected to a cave two kilometers away, where we found an underground camp built by the devil. Not only is there a fog storage tower inside, but there is also a stone pillar of divine punishment, which is a few points larger than the outpost used as a bait. In fact, that's the devil's true stronghold. ”

Roland couldn't help frowning, "A Divine Punishment Stone that can cover a camp?"

"That's right," said Agatha slowly, "it's nearly five meters in diameter, about ten meters high, and the cut is smooth, like a sharp edge of ice cut by a sharp blade—something like this was unheard of in the Confederation era, and I probably wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes." ”
