 Chapter 17541755 The elves doing useless work

Just as the Elf side turned on several backup radar stations on the border to search for targets, an anti-radiation missile had detached from the launcher under the wing of the Prowler electronic warfare aircraft.

It dragged a long tail flame towards the distant target, constantly correcting its flight trajectory according to the opponent's electromagnetic radiation signal along the way.

As if it had eyes, the sharp wings on its missile body disturbed the airflow, allowing the missile warhead to always be pointed in the direction of the enemy.

After a long flight, the missile finally hit the "light in the dark night" and accurately hit the huge steel radar antenna that was constantly emitting radio signals.

Because of the war experience provided by the dwarves and Qin people, the elves have transformed many radar stations into safer modes. The antennas of the radar stations have been moved to relatively distant locations, and the radar stations themselves are located far away from the radar antennas.

Such changes will actually affect the coordinate accuracy of the radar, because the relative coordinates will shift somewhat. But for the imprecise radars of the elves, such defects are actually irrelevant.

Anyway, they couldn't accurately scan the coordinates of the target, so they simply transformed those ancient radar stations regardless. Because the war situation deteriorated rapidly, many radar stations did not even have time to debug their equipment after they were relocated.

"Boom!" The flames of the explosion engulfed the radar antenna, and the high temperature of the explosion melted the steel. A radar device instantly lost all signal sources.

The commander of the radar station in the bunker heard the explosion in the distance. Everyone knew that those anti-radiation missiles that followed them would one day fall on their heads.

Now, the missile finally fell, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief: the other party only destroyed the radar antenna, and this loss was acceptable to them.

"One radar is paralyzed, and the backup radar has started working...but the frequency band was interfered. We detected some targets before being interfered with. The target was far away from us, at least 40 kilometers away." An officer told the commander of the radar station The latest situation was reported.

The backup radar did not play any role. It only detected some targets before being jammed, but before the operator could determine the useful information, the radar screen was filled with interference noise again.

…

The fire at the poor supply depot was still raging. The elf officer in charge here looked at the soldiers who came to help put out the fire and didn't know whether to cry or laugh.

"Drive those trucks away! Drive to the side of the woods! Stay hidden! Damn it! Idiot! Drive away quickly!" He shouted in the distance from time to time, reminding the busy soldiers what to do.

The entire village was in chaos, and the villagers who originally lived here were in tears as they looked at the houses engulfed in flames. They were originally reluctant to lend their houses to the army. Now that their houses were gone, they did not have the guts to ask the army for compensation, so they could only stand there and watch the fire engulf their original homes.

Naturally, the gasoline burning explosion cannot be extinguished quickly. Although the soldiers fighting the fire worked very hard, they were unable to stop the spread of the fire.

Soon several nearby houses also started to burn. Those places were rest areas for officers and soldiers at the supply depot, and they were now engulfed in flames. If the fire is allowed to spread, the supplies area on the other side of the rest area will soon suffer. There are cotton-padded clothes that were originally intended to be shipped to the Ice Empire. They have been kept here because of the transportation capacity. Now that the Ice Empire has collapsed, there is no need to continue transporting them north.

Originally, these cotton-padded clothes were of elven style, so even if they no longer need to be transported further north, the elven military was not willing to throw them away. Instead, they stored them in place and prepared to distribute them to frontline soldiers.

Now, maybe there is no need to waste energy on distributing them. After a while, they will become fuel, ignite a fire in this winter, and use their own residual heat.

"Where's the anti-aircraft gun? Why don't you fire?" Watching the fire spread anxiously, the commander of the supply depot was filled with resentment and muttered, seeming to be ready to shift the responsibility to the prevention and control troops.

"Woo..." The air defense siren has been sounding for a long time, and the anti-aircraft guns deployed outside the village have also entered combat mode. Although it is ironic to sound the air raid siren at this time, the work that needs to be done still has to be carried out in a boring way.

The two anti-aircraft gun companies stationed in the fields outside the village were looking for targets in the sky, but they found nothing but the sun.

The slender barrels of several 88mm caliber anti-aircraft guns exported from the Datang Group were pointed towards the sky. The gunners carrying the shells stood next to the cannons holding the shells, but they did not wait for the deafening sound when they fired.

The noncommissioned officer in charge of the observation held the rangefinder and looked at the clear sky. Since he did not find any targets, he naturally could not give any combat orders to the loader waiting next to the artillery.

Anti-aircraft gun shells need to set the air-blast height before firing. Without parameters, there is no way to adjust the fuze, so everyone is waiting for useful information to arrive.

But after waiting for a long time, the enemy plane's flight altitude and azimuth parameters were not received from the radar station, nor were the parameters visually inspected by observers... Of course, we could only wait like this.

At this time, anti-aircraft artillery was used to deal with enemy aircraft, which was somewhat embarrassing. But the elves really couldn't come up with any better weapons, so they could only make do with these outdated weapons.

In fact, they also knew that anti-aircraft guns could no longer deal with the Tang Army's aircraft, but these weapons were their only means of air defense, no matter how useless they were, they could embolden them.

It's a pity that being brave is just being brave. It is impossible for the air defense troops to waste artillery shells on the empty blue sky. You must know that their ammunition is also very precious, and they have to wait for replenishment if they run out.

On this day, at least 200 Elf ground targets were struck by the Tang Empire's air force, including Elf's four frontline field airports.

It is not yet possible to calculate how much the elves have lost, but everyone knows that the loss must be huge. And everyone knows that the Air Force of the Tang Empire is the vanguard of their army. As long as the Air Force of the Tang Dynasty starts taking action, the ground attack will be close at hand.

Therefore, for a while, almost all the elven ground troops were on alert. They were eager to know where the Tang Empire's armored forces had moved in at this moment.
