Chapter 980 Chapter 982 The Queen's OrderThe first round bombing of the Alanhill Empire made the entire Demon Realm boil over the winter. The demon resistance force, which was weak after the attack, finally recognized the real gap between the two sides.
In the north, the focal point of the Alanhill Empire's attack, there were sounds of explosions everywhere. Thousands of cannons roared, sending countless shells over the heads of the demonic resistance.
These demons who once showed off one's military strength in the human world now have little resistance.
Although they still have an army of more than one million, the combat capability of these troops is actually very low.
They don't have adequate logistical supplies, because the farmland was destroyed by the Alanhill Empire, and the entire Demon Realm is now in a state of extreme food shortage.
The demons that intersect with the Alanhill Empire, as well as the occupied areas of the Alanhill Empire, are supplied with massive amounts of food on the magical continent, so they can live fairly well.
But those places that refuse to cooperate will be quite aggrieved. At least, most of the demon-controlled areas can't even get enough to eat.
Without food, the battle strength of the army can be imagined. In order to maintain the battle strength of the demon army, many demon commanders have to start condoning their soldiers to rob civilians of their own kind.
The demon dogs have lost most of their losses due to genetic attacks, and most of the remaining demon dogs have become food for high-level demon soldiers.
The population of the entire demon-controlled area is declining sharply, and the Demon Race, which has a population of billions, has shrunk to a level of only one billion people a year after the outbreak of the war.
This is not the most terrifying, the most terrifying is that after losing a large number of factories and cities, the demon's war potential has been completely emptied.
It's not just a lack of qualified supplementary soldiers, nor just a lack of training.
These demonic commanders can't even guarantee that their troops will be able to keep running.
The original 3,000-man army is now only 1,400 or even 1,200. Even so, similar troops are still the main elite of the demon troops.
As for those temporarily assembled troops, some required 5,000 troops, but could only make up 2,000 troops.
This kind of troops, let alone fighting, barely maintains law and order, and may not have enough manpower.
What makes the devil even more desperate is that even if it has reached such a point, the Combat Unit, which is seriously lacking, still lacks food and clothing, and even does not have enough resources.
To give the simplest example: when the winter just entered, the demons in the northern region replenished 115 sets of armor for every 1,000 soldiers. This is the material replenishment data on paper.
It can be seen that even on the whitewashed paper data, the war supplies obtained by the demon front-line Combat Unit are very scarce.
What is the actual situation? In fact, for every 1,000 soldiers in the Demon Frontline Combat Unit, only 70 sets of supplementary armor can be obtained, and if they are repaired and transported back to the troops, another 10 sets are available...
At the same time, the battle consumption of the Demon Army in frontline combat The total consumption of magic destruction arrows is 3000 per day.
As a result, the number of magic destruction arrows added to the first-line Combat Unit is only 2,400. It can be seen from this that the magic arrows in the hands of the demon army have actually been decreasing.
The reduced number of arrows can only be filled with ordinary bows and arrows in the end: the devil consumes 15,000 ordinary bows and arrows every day, and replenishes 16,700 arrows, which can barely maintain the number of arrows in the front-line troops.
You must know that demons are always in defensive battles, they are constantly retreating, so magic destruction arrows, including other ordinary bows and arrows, all consume items, after the battle is over , cannot be recycled.
The final result is that although the demons have increased the number of arrows in the front line, most of them are ordinary arrows, and the number of magic arrows has dropped sharply.
Because the demon's logistical supply has completely collapsed, the front-line demon soldiers rarely get non-combat materials such as cotton coats, so the demon army fights in the cold winter, and more soldiers die from freezing than fighting.
There is almost no cotton-padded jacket to keep out the cold, and there is a lack of bow and arrow weapons, and even armor is not available. In this case, talking about the battle strength of the demon family is no different from joking.
So, when Alanhill's Grenadiers start attacking the demon's defenses, the demons are basically collapsed on the first encounter.
Although the mountain road in the north is rough, it has an end. When the vanguard of the Alanhill Empire broke through several defensive lines garrisoned by the demon army, a vast plain appeared in front of them.
This is the granary of the Devil's North! There are thousands of miles of fertile fields and rivers, and there are hardly any dangerous terrains.
And the demon troops whose things have reached a dead end finally realized that the favorable terrain they were relying on had been captured by their opponents.
On the edge of a dry forest, a demon officer pressed the long sword on his waist, and stared sadly at the smoke-filled hilltop in the distance, which was their last Defensive Array in the mountains. .
At this moment, dozens of A-10 attack aircraft and 3 AC-130 gunboats are continuously firing around the hill, where the fire and smoke can be clearly seen from here. Clearly.
He didn't believe at all that someone could come back alive from such a terrifying attack, much less that his companions could endure for a long time under such terrifying firepower.
It is almost certain that if it is not supported until noon, it will be occupied by humans, and the recalcitrant demons in the northern mountains will also lose all geographical advantages at almost the same time.
As an experienced Demon Race commander, he can also be sure that in a few hours, those terrifying human troops will arrive at his current location, and the troops he leads will Drive out of the woods.
Then those lingering planes like flies swooped down from the sky and reaped their lives.
In just one afternoon at most, his 3,000-odd demon soldiers will be annihilated. There are corpses everywhere on the ground, and there are not many soldiers left...
"Damn..." He cursed, but there was nothing he could do. He was ordered to station here, train new recruits and prepare to defend the land.
But now, with the troops in his hands, he can't accomplish this arduous task at all! You know, the troop under his command is not 3,000 battle-hardened warriors!
He has only 500 elite Demon Race soldiers, all veterans who have been with him for many years. The remaining 500 soldiers are qualified supplementary soldiers. Although they have little combat experience, they can also be said to be strong and brave warriors.
But the other 2,000 people are basically armed recruits like farmers. Their battle strength is pitifully low, and they are all cannon fodder when they fight!
He felt sorry for these soldiers. If he was allowed to train for another three months, these soldiers could learn a lot. At least in battle, they can rely on each other and face difficulties together.
But now, the recruits have not been trained, and he has no time to continue training these people-in this case, the demon soldiers who have not been fully trained can only be wasted as cannon fodder. .
"Sir! The trenches have been dug! We also set up some covered bunkers in some areas..." A low-ranking officer came over and lowered his head to report the layout of the defense lines.
Following the officer's instructions, the demonic force established a line of defense along the edge of the forest. This line of defense is very covert, it just lacks enough firepower.
They don't have decent anti-aircraft guns, so they don't have air defense capabilities - sadly, because of the existence of infrared detectors, their hidden fortifications are actually not simply "covert".
The other side will easily destroy these trenches, find the hidden demon troops one after another and kill...
And they don't have enough firearms to defend against the Alanhill Imperial troops. Assault: Along the trench lines across the edge of the woodland, this demon unit has only 200 replica Mauser 98K rifles!
In the eyes of the Alanhill Empire's army, such a firepower density is like a joke.
"Sir..."
"I see! Prepare to fight! Let all the soldiers pull yourself together!" The demon officer reluctantly gave an order, as if to greet The arrival of death is generally.
At this time, in the distance, a cavalryman riding an Earth Dragon beast approached quickly and stopped on the edge of the dry taiga.
This demon soldier is wearing a gorgeous armor, but it is not the traditional pattern of demons. Although I don't know when this pattern style entered the Demon Race army sequence, but those who are familiar with this pattern know that this is the symbol of the Demon King Eresia lineage.
Yes, these armors are all from Alanhill, custom-made by Iressia herself for her Guards.
An armor factory in the Alanhill Empire contracted this project and ordered a batch of exclusive armors for Demon Race, with an astonishing 20,000 sets.
The key is that it only took 3 days to produce these armors. The large-scale mechanical production line gave these armors superior strength and almost perfect quality.
The Knight stopped at the edge of the jungle, turned over and jumped off the Earth Dragon beast, then pressed his long sword and walked to the demon officer who was staring at him.
"Are you here to support us?" The Demon Commander asked slowly when he saw Knight walking in front of him.
Although he knew that the opponent was unlikely to come here alone to support him in fighting the enemy, he still asked. Because he didn't want to hear the other answer, the one that bothered him a lot.
"I am here on the Queen's order to convey the Queen's order to you." The Knight said, "Put down your weapons and get out of here! If you wish, I can help you..."
