Chapter 721 Planning for air combat arms

"You guys go ahead." Ms. Strategy was just as she came, her divine light faded away, leaving only Ms. Catherine.

Catherine had long been accustomed to this, and there was no difference between the changes. She asked: "General, can you tell me about your new tactics?"

Others clearly noticed the spiritual communication between Gavin and Catherine. No one asked, they just waited quietly.

"This new tactic is based on this new equipment, the dragon's breath flutter bomb." Gavin took out four dragon's breath flutter bombs with different attributes and handed them to everyone for circulation.

and gave them a rough explanation of the origin of the bomb.

"Making dragon breath into a flutter bomb? Only the general dares to think and do such a thing. The dragon has existed for so many years. I have only heard of people imitating the dragon and obtaining the special abilities or spells of dragon breath, but I never thought of using the dragon’s breath directly.”

"This is really a genius idea. Dragon's breath is the most powerful weapon of the dragons. With this weapon, wouldn't it be possible for an ordinary person to release the dragon's breath?"

"Theoretically, it's true. The premise is that there is a giant dragon willing to cooperate with this."

"Once this kind of equipment is deployed on a large scale, it will indeed have a disruptive effect on the war."

"This kind of equipment really tests the use of strategies and tactics. They will elevate the kobold's trap-making ability to the extreme. With just a few Howard convenience bags and a few trap makers, you can easily create a trap minefield. , holding back an army, thereby allowing the other party to delay its opportunity to fight. "

"It's not just a trap, it can also be used with a trebuchet for long-distance throwing."

"Throwing from high altitude is also a method. There are not a large number of dragon-shaped kobolds in Colossus City. As long as they are equipped with such bombs, they can carry out large-scale aerial bombing."

"Wait a minute, the Lord of Sanoba mentioned the Cloud Ray before. You don't want to capture this super giant magical beast and airdrop it on a large scale, right?"

"She is worthy of being the first choice of ladies. You can associate it with just a few words. Yes, this is indeed one of its usages."

Gavin is one of the smartest people on the field. Gavin just took out the Dragon's Breath Flutter Bomb and said something to me, and he pieced the whole thing together, and even integrated its usage into the strategy. In tactics.

It actually saved Gavin a lot of explanation time.

Catherine obviously thought more: "The emergence of this new war tool will completely change the mode of war and increase the importance of air superiority. All countries and all armies must develop flying arms. Even if they do not have the power to bomb the enemy, they will It is necessary to ensure that enemy bombing units cannot easily penetrate into your own airspace for large-scale bombing.

In other words, before the enemy realizes this, the side with enough aerial bombing units will have the advantage.

Super-giant flying magical beasts like Cloud Ray will become the most important strategic weapon. You must seize the initiative and master as many of them as possible.

In fact, the most suitable weapon for this kind of weapon is not these flying magic beasts, but the magic spaceship. However, this manufacturing technology is currently only mastered by the mages of the Arua Kingdom, and they rarely sell it to the outside world.

It is far more convenient to attack them than flying magical beasts like cloud rays.

Whether it is a flying magical beast or a magical spaceship, they all have the disadvantage of slow movement speed and are easily targeted by those agile flying units.

Therefore, it is best not to dispatch these bulky aerial bombing units alone, but to be equipped with some flying units with powerful air combat capabilities to cooperate. "

Ms. Strategy's ability as the first elector is not to be boasted. With just a few bombs, she has already analyzed the changes in the future war situation.

"Ms.'s analysis is very correct." Gavin shared his preliminary plan, "I have initially divided the air force into four types of units.

One is heavy bombing units, mainly cloud rays and magic spaceships that fly slowly, but can load a large number of dragon breath flutter bombs and carry out large-scale, long-distance aerial bombing. The advantages and disadvantages are very obvious. They must be coordinated under special circumstances. Used by other air arms.

The second type is a medium-sized guard unit with certain bombing capabilities and strong air combat capabilities. It is positioned as an auxiliary bombing unit and is mainly responsible for air combat. The flying dragon is the best choice, and the giant roc is also good.

The third type is light guard units. There are many of them and they are very complex. They can be cavalry composed of flying creatures such as Pegasus, Griffin, and Hippogriff.

It can also be a series of beings such as Erd, Harpy, and Ghost, who are born with the ability to fly.

Their main responsibility is protection, and they can even be used in conjunction with medium-sized guard units and heavy guard units. For example, those who throw dragon's breath flutter bombs on cloud rays can be those dragon-shaped kobolds. Their small size is in this situation It's actually an advantage.

The last type is the special flying unit, which mainly refers to the dragon. They are the spoilers of air combat. The first three types of flying units are difficult to fight against and must be treated specially. Fortunately, the chance of facing them directly on the battlefield is not great. "

Everyone couldn't help but nod their heads when they heard Gavin's classification, and couldn't find any fault with it.

Gavin continued: "We already have light escort units, mainly medium and heavy ones. I have sent people to comprehensively search for suitable targets. Currently, we are mainly focusing on flying dragons and cloud rays.

There is no need to worry about flying dragons, I already have a way to control and tame them.

The problem now is how to tame cloud rays. "

"If you ask us this question, I'm afraid you are asking the wrong person. Those powerful druids are the ones you are asking."

Everyone shook their heads in unison. If it was just a matter of killing, they could come up with several plans in the blink of an eye, but taming it was beyond their capabilities.

"That's right." Gavin asked casually. After all, he was not professionally qualified. In this regard, he had many more suitable people to ask, "Do you have any better ideas or suggestions about air combat? "

"There are a few small questions." Catherine asked, "Is the power and properties of this dragon's breath vibration bomb related to the dragon that produced them."

"Yes, the more powerful the dragon, the more powerful the Dragon Breath Flutter Bomb produced. Currently, I have no plans to cooperate with other dragons. These are the main ones we can produce ourselves." Gavin did this. Secrecy is only one aspect. On the other hand, those giant dragons are not so easy to deal with. The more powerful they are, the more difficult they are to deal with.

Just look at Ivinsa and you will know that this is true for a little dragon that has been cultivated for such a long time and has been subtly modified by himself, let alone one who has no friendship.

A dragon's breath can't be obtained without thousands of gold coins. It also depends on their mood.

The dragon's urinary nature has advantages and disadvantages, and overall the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.

The disadvantage is that if you want cheap dragon breath flutter bombs, you have to raise your own dragons. If cooperation is not possible, you have to enslave.

The advantage is that the dragon's character is not directed at Gavin, but towards everyone and all forces.

When the recipe for Dragon Breath Flutter Bomb is leaked later, unless other forces also raise dragons like Gavin, it will be difficult for Dragon Breath Flutter Bomb to be popularized on a large scale and will be extremely expensive.

When it comes to enslaving dragons, Gavin, with his mother dragon oak tree, has an absolute innate advantage.

At that time, those who can compete with Gavin in this aspect will mainly be those dragon forces.

"This kind of dragon breath vibration bomb is only limited to giant dragons? What about other powerful magical beasts with breath?" Catherine asked a new question.

Although there are not many magical beasts that can match dragon's breath in terms of breathing, it is not impossible.

“This utilizes not only the dragon’s breath, but also the ability of kobolds and dragons to synchronize and help each other. Currently, it only applies to dragons, half-dragons and dragon beasts.

It is uncertain whether this process can be replicated through magic and extended to other magical beasts with the ability to breathe. I have not yet had time to organize people to conduct research. "Gavin told the truth.

"I have no more questions for now." Catherine said she had finished asking.

"What about the rest?"

"Ms. Catherine asked in great detail, but I don't have any more."

"Me neither."

They still need time to digest this brand new thing.

"Then let's continue the previous topic." Gavin handed the right to speak back to Shanoba, "Tell us about your development plans and the problems you face?"

"The cooperation model between Colossus City and Ritawen is not a long-term solution after all. Let’s not talk about the processing fees. The transportation costs alone are not low."

Shanoba couldn't help lowering her voice and said, "I was wondering about one thing before. As a dwarven city, Colossus City has such a large iron ore output, how could it not have its own automated iron-making production line?

Master Jiharin reminded me. After he left, I selected some people to conduct a blanket search and inspection of the City of the Colossus. I found that some murals not only mentioned automated iron-making production lines, but even a semi-automated equipment smelting production line.

But there is no sign of them in the existing passages of Colossus City.

The only thing that could not be checked was the dark area mentioned by Master Jihalin, which also leads directly to the geothermal energy of the earth.

I have reason to suspect that the automated iron-making production line and the semi-automated equipment smelting production line are both there.

Losing them was the real reason for the decline of the dwarves in Colossus City. "

"Your speculation is very reasonable." Gavin stood up and walked around a few times excitedly. "Originally, I was quite hesitant about opening the seal, but now it is inevitable."

An artifact with unknown capabilities was not worth Gavin's risk of antagonizing the undead stone giant, so he could take a roundabout route.

But an automated dwarf ironmaking production line right under the iron mine was enough to make him take risks, let alone a semi-automated equipment production line.

"The risk of this matter is not small." Shanobah reminded, "According to the survey of the kobolds, the iron ore veins in Colossus City are very deep, nearly a thousand meters underground, which means that the dwarf enemies can dig from below. Mine, once they occupy those dwarf automated production lines, they will not give them away. We must be prepared for war. "

"This is natural." Gavin nodded clearly, "It is worthwhile to fight a group of undead for a dwarf automated production line. I have already sent people to collect information about them.

In this matter, we still have a very strong advantage.

One is calculated mentally and unintentionally. We quickly know who the enemy is, but the enemy does not know who we are.

Second, we have flutter bombs. As long as we detect the situation below, we can blast the passage and directly block the underground connection between the two parties. If they want to reopen the passage, it cannot be done in a day and a half. "

Whatever Gavin does now, he always puts information first.

He would never rashly organize an adventure team to escort Jihalin deep into the Troll Mountains to repair the Heart of the Mountains.

Doing so would be stupid and inefficient.

The most correct tactic is to send people who are familiar with the environment of the Underdark to go through the long and dark tunnels, accurately locate the location of the leyline, use teleportation to teleport down, and run after repairing the Heart of the Mountains.

As for the candidates, no one is more suitable for this task than the drow elves. The first batch of members of Shadow Wing were drow elves. After knowing the method of repairing the Heart of the Mountains, Gavin asked Daphne to select five extraordinary Shadow Wing drow elves to form an elite team to go to the Giant Run Mountains to find the entrance to the Underdark.

Now it is just because of the change in the value of the underground, necessary plans and tactical adjustments have been made.

"The Lord has considered it carefully. The specific battle plan will be discussed after the intelligence is fed back." Sanoba stopped dwelling on this topic. "We need a batch of catapults and crossbows as a supplementary defense for Colossus City."

"This is easy. I will ask Misnoel to make them for me and use the shadow to drag them to Avanso for transportation. You just need to give me a quantity." Gavin harvested a lot of dark wood in Misnoel, which can last for a while.

"One thousand catapults and two thousand crossbows." Sanoba asked loudly.

Gavin, who had just made a solemn promise, was choked. He stared at her and asked, "What do you need so many city defense equipment for? Are there any forces nearby that can pose a threat to you?"

"Yes!" Shanoba said solemnly, "There is a lair of an ancient red dragon in the Troll Mountains. Once he wakes up from dragon sleep, he will definitely not let go of Colossus City."

"..."

Gavin didn't know how to answer Shanoba for a while. After a long while, he said helplessly, "Although these city defense equipment can pose a certain degree of threat to an ancient red dragon, it mainly depends on the operator. Even if you have a large number of them, your operator kneels when he sees him. How can you fight him?

When Feiyan Belegos really wakes up one day, don't think about fighting. It is wisest to prepare heavy gifts and pay tribute to him as soon as possible.

First save Colossus City, and the rest We will slowly work it out. It is not shameful to pay tribute to a famous ancient red dragon. "

"..." Shanoba was stunned for a moment, and quickly apologized, "I was thinking wrong, then okay, then reduce the number by half, 500 catapults, 1,000 large-scale crossbows."

"It's still too much. One hundred catapults and two hundred large-scale crossbows are enough for you to deter most enemies. As long as you can ensure that there are no problems inside and you are captured by the enemy with a charge, the elite heavy cavalry of Blood Gorge City will instantly appear behind the enemy.

Blood Gorge City and Colossus City are only 220 kilometers in total, and the super-giant road statue's teleportation distance is 256 kilometers.

When I have enough road power and upgrade your Colossus City's road statue to a super-giant one, the safety factor of your two cities will be further improved. "After Gavin finished calculating, he also shocked himself.

When it comes to 256 kilometers alone, it doesn't feel too much, but if it is matched with the distance of each section of the Road of Destiny, it is a bit amazing.

"It's true. This super giant road statue is not the same as the giant one. It would be great if all the road statues could be replaced with super giant ones. No, it would be best if the entire Conqueror's Road could be paved." Sanoba was also shocked. She had never calculated this detail before.

"The road power consumed is not at the same level. Although there is only a four-fold difference, it may not be possible to accumulate the next super giant in a short time. The recent road power is all accumulated in the past." Gavin didn't want to do this, but he was afraid that this was not so easy to do.

"I know, I just sighed. In this case, let's do what the lord said. There is no problem on my side for the time being." After confirming that a powerful reinforcement army could appear at her city at any time, Sanoba was no longer so obsessed with the city defense weapons.

In fact, she also knew that placing so many city defense weapons in the Colossus City was far more useful as a deterrent than in practice.

"Lord Carl, tell me about your vision for the City of Faith. How many people do you need to leave for you? How do you plan to run this place in the future?" Gavin set his eyes on the tortured middle-aged man.

Karl, the amputee, looked very old, with more white hair than black hair, and the grooves on his face could hold earthworms. His face was dark and he wore a pair of ghost eye masks. Ten years of blindness had caused serious damage to his visual nerves. Even if he was cured by regeneration, he was still sensitive to light.

This kind of eye mask that can see ghost shadows just plays a certain protective role.

The same is true for hair and wrinkles. Regeneration can only repair the injured part of the body, and it is powerless to those traces left by nature. Even magic is not omnipotent. Time is the most powerless point.

This face is definitely difficult to associate with his actual age. He is just over 40 and in the prime of life.

"Before that, I have a small request."

"What request?"

"I request to transform my shadow into a ghost."

"Have you thought about it?"

"I have thought about it."

"Okay, I agree." The conversation between the two was concise and to the point.

Gavin is a smart man, and he understood what was going on as soon as the other party opened his mouth.

It is nothing more than using this as a token of loyalty to reassure him, so that he can better integrate into the system of the Conqueror Army and gain more trust and support from him.

As for the experience lost in this process, when it comes to Carl's quasi-legendary level, how could Gavin only use the resurrection technique on him? He will definitely use the complete resurrection technique that does not damage the essence of the soul.
