Chapter 342 Dempsey's troubles

Twelve artillery, in fact, this is not the limit that Dane can take out. [No Bullet Fiction Net] In his White Wolf Castle, there is a whole artillery workshop. However, the ordinary alchemy artillery produced by the artillery workshop is actually not very good in war. He also did a test specifically, without having to be high, as long as there is a level 6 priest, he can completely block an artillery three times with protective magic.

Hell, the artillery thing is poor in maneuverability, cumbersome to reload, and limited aiming. It may be okay to bombard unprotected units. It really has reached a relatively high-end battlefield, and the role it can play is really not strong.

So, although Dane also prepared some artillery in the army, he did not have much equipment. The output of many artillery workshops was taken to armed ships and sold. And, to be honest, the sales of artillery are actually average, and many warlords don't really want to buy it. What they really want to buy is also some who run sea businesses.

After all, the ocean is where weapons like artillery can really exert their power.

Of course, artillery is really not so useful when playing field battles. However, when siege, this is still a good weapon to deal with things such as city walls and gates. .

The lack of countermeasures in Iron Nail Post, that was really suffered.

Almost one afternoon of shelling, the iron walls of the Iron Nail Post weren't that much of a sturdy wall. There are several sections of the wall that were attacked heavily, and the gates that were originally the focus of the attack, even a little crumbling.

The city of Tieganggang, which has been stricken for a day, is now heart-warming.The new Iron Nail Post Overseer Dempsey sat sadly in his seat, scratching his hair. He had already become a sparse hairstyle in the Mediterranean. It is estimated that he would be so sad that he would have to become bald before the iron nail city was broken.

But where is he still thinking about his own hair? If he could keep Iron Nail Post, he would have nothing to say even if he immediately made him bald.

Unfortunately not.

Every time he heard the loud sound of the artillery, his heart trembled.

"Lord Overseer, let's withdraw." The status of the staff next to him was not much better than him.

"Withdraw?" Dempsey smiled bitterly. "Why don't I want to withdraw ..."

He did have the idea of ​​retreating, but did not dare.

He is a veteran. Compared with his extroverted and adventurous ex-trooper, his newly-appointed character in commanding the army has to be too calm. For Gush's choices in office, Dempsey was quite unhappy. Especially a few months ago, when I participated in the battle between Malone and Dane, I chose such a radical approach and tried to wipe out Dane's main force in one fell swoop. As a result, the annihilation was not completed. The army fell.

It is a model of death.

He just died, leaving this mess to himself.For several months since taking office, Dempsey has been nervous. The more he learned about Dane's strength, the more he felt uneasy. He desperately complained to Governor Kangli, demanding additional support and increased strength. Finally, until he was overturned, he promised to increase his troops and sent him a squadron battalion to him, which only made him satisfied.

But who knows, reinforcements are still on the way, and there will be drastic changes in the north.

When news came out from Governor Kangli's forces that they were going to operate on Ice Cave City, Dempsey knew that the battle at Iron Nail would start. He felt that even if the opposite Dane was no longer stupid, he could not remain indifferent at this time. At the same time, he also received an order from Governor Conley: In any case, hold on to the Iron Nail Post!

He calculated with his fingers, and within a few days, the Battalion Squadron had already arrived. The formation of air cavalry is not the same as that of the ground troops. The number of air cavalry is half, and there are only thirty air cavalry of the squadron size. Although this number is not large, Dempsey understands the role of air cavalry in the war.

In this case, shouldn't it be difficult to hold for a week?

A week later, a reinforcement force consisting of 3,000 soldiers who had set off from the direction of Cinderella for a while would arrive, so that the task of keeping the city would not be so difficult. He is confident, holding 6,000 regular troops in hand, and some cannon fodder temporarily recruited, he can be sure to play with Dane. Even if you ca n’t fight it, you can at least persist for a long time. At that time, the situation on your side will be tight. You wo n’t ignore it if you want to come to the Governor, and there will definitely be further support.

From this point of view, Dempsey was ready to fight a long battle with Dane.

But who knows, before the formal battle has begun, the Bat Squadron that they rely on has almost let the family die out?

Hearing the six-headed griffon in his home, and lighting up the entire Battalion Squadron on his own side, he looked at the few surviving cavalry soldiers who had returned fiercely and stung for a long time.

Beforehand, he heard the news that Dane was setting up his own air cavalry--the griffins that often fly recently over White Wolf Castle, and couldn't hide it. However, Dempsey did not worry about this. Well, the Gryphon Cavalry, although famous, is also notoriously badly trained and costly. He doesn't think that this kind of arms can be trained quickly.Results ~ www.novelbuddy.com ~ How long is this? A month? Is this cavalry already in the army?

Chengjun will become an army, right? Six, shouldn't there be a lot? But this combat power is too strong!

He had heard of griffins, but he had never seen them before. In his impression, it was a force that was stronger than Governor Ozzie's sword-riding cavalry, but also limited. Six hit 30 and collapsed, this ratio is too exaggerated!

Now, he really didn't know how to defend the city. They have artillery, they only have a crossbow, and there is no means of countermeasures; the sky that they thought could be mastered has now become the world of the five griffins. Their battalions are afraid to take off during the day. It is estimated that they can only take off at night. I sneaked out sneakily, but I could only spread a message, and I was afraid that people would not be able to get caught when conducting investigations.

This city can't keep up!

As a veteran, why can't he see that his side does not have an advantage in all aspects, this battle really won or lost. He really has a retreat.

But think about the military decree issued in front of Governor Kangli before coming to Iron Nail Post, he could not help shuddering-if he went back so bleakly, it would be impossible to save his life. (To be continued.)
