Chapter 1538 1539 Reinforcements will arrive soon

 In a hidden underground bunker, a dwarf worker was desperately tightening a screw with a wrench. He was repairing a damaged Scud missile launcher. This was one of the few weapons and equipment they had that could hit the beach occupied by the Tang Army.

“How long will it take to repair it?” the officer of the Dwarf Missile Force asked impatiently as he looked at the parts and tools on the floor, as well as the seven or eight busy workers.

"About 3 hours? It will take some time for the spare parts to be delivered, but we will fix this thing as soon as possible." The veteran of the logistics force reported to his superiors.

The other side of the launch vehicle was hit by shrapnel in many places. There were some craters on it and some holes that were penetrated.

 A bomb almost destroyed the Scud missile launcher, but luckily it only suffered some damage and was not completely destroyed.

Another missile launch vehicle in this missile company was not so lucky. It was directly hit by the Tang Army's bomb and was completely scrapped on the launch site.

For the Ice Empire, the ballistic missile force is undoubtedly a treasure, a last-ditch weapon that is easily unwilling to be taken out.

 So these missile launch vehicles are deployed in high-standard positions with bunkers. They are usually hidden in underground garages and cannot be driven out easily.

However, due to technical limitations, the launch process of Scud missiles is actually very complicated and very demanding.

"This is the only launch vehicle left in our battalion. It must be repaired as soon as possible... The front line is waiting for our support." The commander of the Dwarf Missile Force spoke anxiously again, emphasizing the importance of this launch vehicle.

Let’s not talk about refueling and other tasks, just talking about the missile launch site, it is a big project: the missile launch vehicle needs a launch site that is nearly flat and has a tight ground. The launch site also needs to have roads into the position and dedicated areas for parking various auxiliary vehicles.

They don't have many high-tech weapons in their hands, and the Scud is considered a relatively powerful one. If the Scud missiles cannot continue to harass the Tang Army's beachhead, then more Tang troops will come ashore soon, and the situation of the dwarves will become even more passive.

The Tang Army’s naval aviation strike radius far exceeds the actual range of the Scud missiles, and the Tang Army’s air-to-ground strike methods are enough to suppress the Scud missiles.

"We are already doing our best, sir." The logistics veteran of the maintenance unit once again explained: "Without spare parts, we have nothing to do."

 In actual combat, either this kind of missile launch site will be far away from the enemy's strike range, or we need to have enough cover to contain the enemy - unfortunately, the dwarves have neither.

 Such a large launch site, consisting of a road, a parking lot, and a launch site, there is no concealment at all from the sky.

The Tang Army's bombing is still continuing, but because there are so many targets, it seems that the intensity is not that exaggerated. It is precisely because of this that this underground bunker has survived and is still functioning today.

 Because there were too many targets, the Tang army did not even conduct serious air raids on the important port of the dwarves, Yongdong Port, and the shipping business there was not greatly affected.

…    "The good news is that Dorne is willing to assist us immediately. They said that they are willing to immediately provide 400 pilots, as well as 200 Type 262 attack aircraft, and 200 Type 86 fighters to go north to join the battle." In the main hall of Ironforge, the dwarves' The Foreign Secretary reported good news to Binghan I.

Although Dorne is relatively far away, the air force's transition speed is still fast enough. It only takes two or three days at most for Dorne's air power to reach the battlefield.

Binghan I's face looked a little better. All he had heard in the past two days was bad news: The day before yesterday, the Tang Dynasty declared war on the dwarves. Yesterday, several positions in the steel barrier were lost. I just woke up this morning, and there was only one bad news. Then another.

"What did the Susas Empire say?" After being silent for about two seconds, he suddenly asked: "What did the Lions Empire say?"

“Both countries promised to secretly assist us with 100 aircraft and 100 pilots, but on the books, these pilots all belong to Dorne...” the Foreign Secretary immediately replied.

 This is the result of his continuous efforts. He has been emphasizing the Tang Dynasty's ambition to attack the Eastern Continent to several countries in the south, trying to draw all these countries into the water.

Several countries were indeed afraid, so they agreed to some of the dwarves' requests. On the one hand, they condemned the Tang Kingdom diplomatically, and on the other hand, they provided some small support to show their support for the Ice Empire.

The only one who is still waiting and watching is the Yangmu Empire. The elves still have a deep prejudice against the dwarves. In addition, they are not willing to tear up the friendly alliance with the Tang State... However, Yangmu I is also worried that the ambitions of the Tang State are out of control. He has already Beginning to waver.

This is all the result of the diplomatic efforts of the dwarves. The Eastern Continent is indeed uniting little by little in an attempt to resist the invasion of the Tang Empire.

 However, compared with the attack speed of the Tang Empire, this reaction speed seems a bit slow. In the afternoon of this day, the Tang army had swept across the sides and rear of Position 4 and occupied a large area of ​​dwarf fortifications.

The 1st Armored Division of the Tang Dynasty is advancing deep into the Dwarves, and their target is the important city "Benn" in the core area of ​​the steel barrier.

As long as Benn is captured, in a sense, the steel barrier will be split from the middle and become two sections: one section is the large area from position 1 to position 3 and its depth, and the other section It is from position 7 to position 10 and its depth area.

 So, next, whether the dwarves can defend Benn and whether they can stabilize their position before a large number of reinforcements arrive seems to determine the outcome of this battle.

"Where are the reinforcements? Can they make it in time?" Binghan I continued to ask.

"Your Majesty, the good news is that General Moss' tactics have indeed worked to a certain extent. The Tang Army has too many targets to attack, and so far they have not paralyzed Everwinter Port." The prime minister of the Ice Empire stood up and replied.

“Our troops can disembark directly from Neverwinter Port, and such reinforcements are very fast.” He paused and continued: “But I think the Tang Army may launch an air attack on Everwinter Port at any time...”

"Tell Moss to hold on until the reinforcements arrive no matter what! The mobilization order has been issued, and one million new soldiers will soon be added to the steel barrier!" He stood up from his throne as he spoke: "At any cost ! Drive the Tang people into the sea!"
