Struggle in the Steam Age

The situation on the battlefield is indeed developing as Lawrence imagined. Although the entire peninsula and the core urban areas further away are all shrouded in smoke and flames, if you look carefully, you can see that the battle line is After going deep and reducing a little distance, they were fixed there. No matter how much the murlocs attacked, they couldn't take a step forward.

Although because of the peninsula, Lawrence and the others couldn't see the whole situation of the battlefield clearly. But the situation on the sea can still be seen clearly, especially those giant sea beasts used on the frontal battlefield.

Therefore, they quickly saw the sea beasts that were closer to the coastline fell directly into the sea after eating one or two shells, splashed a lot of water, and then floated motionless on the water surface.

In particular, in order to achieve the suddenness of the attack, the other party sent half of the war cancers as soon as they launched the attack. As a result, when the land counterattack started, the group of spellcasters used magic scrolls and magic prop masters to display a large number of attack magic, and basically all ran towards these war cancers.

And after the magic defense of the war cancer was stripped by these attack magic, those sahuagin superhumans on the cancer's back quickly started to cast spells to block the next round of attack magic, but unfortunately they hadn't had time to release the defense magic out. Those enchanted cannonballs broke through the carapace on the giant crab's body one after another and sank into the giant crab's body.

The sahuagin transcendents on the giant crab didn't pay much attention to these attacks, because they knew how strong and big the body and carapace of the biological weapon they were sitting on was.

Under normal circumstances, if a human being fires an explosive bomb from a cannon, it will explode when it touches the carapace, and it cannot cause too much damage to the giant crab. And even if the solid bullets can penetrate the carapace, the remaining kinetic energy is not enough to cause them to cause much damage. With the recovery ability of this kind of biological weapon, they can recover quickly.

At the beginning, the situation was exactly as those sahuagin superhumans thought: in just a few seconds, the new magic barrier was re-opened on these war cancers. At the same time, the muscles and carapace around the wounds on the giant crab squirmed and rushed towards the wounds, blocking all the wounds with sky blue blood just now.

However, this state did not last long. Just a few minutes later, Lawrence and the others, who were standing on the cliff looking at the direction of the main battlefield, saw the giant war crabs slam their bodies, and then slapped them all over the sea. At the same time, all the magical defenses that were wrapped around them disappeared after flashing twice.

The sahuagin superhumans sitting on the backs of these giant beasts were completely caught off guard by this sudden change. Except for a few people who were quick to grab something to fix their bodies, the others were all thrown into the ground like gourds. The sudden change at the feet made it staggered, and some people even accidentally slipped directly along the sloping giant crab shell and fell into the sea.

Naturally, the guards on the shore couldn't let go of this good opportunity. The moment the war crabs stopped, they realized that the enemy was in a vulnerable state, so they immediately mobilized their precious firepower to pour towards those giant crabs. Huge casualties were caused among those sahuagin transcendents who had lost their magical protection.

This unexpected situation even stopped the offensive of the entire army. In the ensuing battle, those giant sea beasts, especially the war cancers, were consciously arranged by the sahuayu people behind the front line away from the coast.

As a result, the morale of the murlocs below suddenly dropped, and then the two sides fixed the front line near the coastline, and began to stalemate around this front line.

I think if this group of people is going to make an assault, then their assault will start soon. After realizing that the main battlefield has turned into a tug-of-war both frontally and sideways, Lawrence immediately lowered his voice and said to the officers behind him. arrive.

Because theoretically, at this time, both sides have already overwhelmed their own reserves. Therefore, whoever can launch an attack from an unexpected place at this time will definitely win the war.

After hearing Lawrence's words, all the staff officers present nodded, and then returned to their posts for the last inspection before the battle.

At the same time, the observation post set up behind a rock on the cliff discovered that the loca fish below broke the original silence and moved: some of them swam towards the entrance of the port area, while all the others began to swim towards the entrance of the port area. Closer to the coastline.

Flower Fin, what are you doing? After seeing this scene, Lawrence immediately picked up the communication fish scale left by the previous Loka murloc and shouted. According to our previous agreement, you must report to us in advance and obtain permission before moving. How can you move without any notice now!

Sorry, Your Excellency, this is because the time for the war to break out is too tight. The voice of Huafin came from the scales, and it was obvious that the group of murlocs had not yet reached the time to start, so Huafin was here. delay. So we hope to send some of them to block the entrance of the harbor, while others go ashore to avoid—

I can understand your thoughts, but the rules are the rules. Lawrence said in an angry tone after looking at the officers around him who were making final preparations, I said before that we are enough to protect your safety, so There is absolutely no need for you to break our agreement like this—

Before Lawrence finished speaking, an officer suddenly ran over and handed a note to Lawrence. Lawrence looked down at the note and found that there was a very brief message written on it: The murloc's attack on the burning granary has been subdued, and a small granary was burned.

After reading the contents of the note, Lawrence immediately raised his head and looked in the direction of the city in the distance. It turned out that wisps of strange yellow smoke began to rise from the warehouse area just on the edge of the city. It should be some kind of special fuel used by the sahuayu people to burn the grain depot, which can also be used as a signal in addition to supporting combustion.

—Fire! Lawrence immediately gave the order after confirming that the group of so-called roca murlocs were indeed spies. Looking at the two fingers he stretched out, the officer in the rear quickly released two flares, one red and one green.

In an instant, several mortar shells were fired from the garrison camp at the mountain pass behind the resort, and then ruthlessly smashed into the group of murlocs who had just climbed onto the beach, exploding several balls of flesh and blood.

We are exposed. Huafin, who had been pretending to be the leader in front of Lawrence and the others before, saw this scene, immediately dropped the scale in his hand, and then bent down in an extremely humble posture to the one beside him. It looks like the old lady Loca murloc said. The group of light-skinned monkeys on land has launched an attack.

It doesn't matter if it is exposed, our previous plan has been successful. At this time, the yellow smoke from the fire in the direction of the grain depot has risen to a height that can be seen even from this bay, and after looking at the smoke, that The muscles on the old lady's body squirmed and turned into a sahuagin priest.

The enemies have been completely dragged down, and it's time for us to charge. The sahuagin priest released a red light ball that went straight into the sky and made a loud noise. Then he amplified his voice with magic and said. Come on, let's destroy these weak enemies and take everything from them.

Accompanied by a messy and sharp shout, those murlocs charged towards the shoreline with their weapons in hand. Even if the shells fell around and took the lives of the companions, no one stopped charging.
