Warhammer: Return of the Dragon.

Chapter 240 The Father of the Mammoth, Ugo, and the Chaos Artillery

Magnus nodded to express his understanding. The elves' proficiency in magic made them more sensitive to the appearance of Tzeentch, and a big demon was worth looking for by the Dragon Prince.

"What is the composition of the giant beast unit?"

He asked the most urgent question that mankind needs to know. He brought [-] pieces of artillery, [-] of which were mortars, and the others were cannons of different calibers. The standards are different, which makes logistics stressful and chaotic at the same time. These [-] artillery pieces are already the greatest support given by the electors.

This issue was also closely watched by Erickson. In order to deal with the behemoth unit, he brought fifteen cannons from Torrent pass, and ignored the persuasion of those long beards, opened the treasury of the High King and took out three rune ballistas, just to Let the hope of victory be greater.

"This question is difficult to explain clearly in words." After Imrik finished speaking, he said without looking back, "Davian."

A little blue light appeared in the hands of Davian, who was ordered by the prince, and shone on Imrik, and then an extremely intuitive image appeared on the desktop.

Although the others were very interested in the projection magic, they still looked at the image, and their breathing became short of breath.

Huge numbers and horrifying shapes of all kinds of giant beasts are mixed around the Kurgan tribe. They are the size of bunkers, ancient dragon demons with lightning flowing all over their bodies, full of chaos marks, giants holding huge iron bars, Gur with four arms The most terrifying thing is the dozen or so war mammoths, and surrounded by them, that terrifying creature that looks like a hill in the physical sense.

"What is this?" Peter Laszlo, the personal ambassador of the pious, was full of shock and fear. When he saw a fearsome giant beast that was as high as a city wall and nearly 30 meters tall at the shoulder, any Anyone will deeply doubt that this world really allows it to exist?
The Dragon Prince answered his question, "Ugo, the father of the mammoth, this is the largest monster that Caledor has scouted."

After seeing this giant ancient mammoth from the perspective of Minasnir, even Imrik was surprised. This size is no less than that of the dinosaur, and it will only be more powerful in creating damage and spreading fear. tough.

This is the largest giant beast that has been detected so far. Although Imrik is sure to deal with Lao Mi together, the battlefield environment will not allow the father of the mammoth to be scraped slowly. It is completely unreliable to deal with melee. Can rely on long-range fire.

"Is there a way for the giant dragon to entangle this mammoth?" Magnus asked Imrik. He also felt that this question was a bit stupid, but he still wanted to say it. A griffin is not enough for this giant mammoth to jam between its teeth, so the dragon must be used to delay the time so that the artillery can focus on the target.

"I can lead the high-level dragon prince to entangle this mammoth in person, but air defense is a big problem. Griffins and helicopters can't deal with so many manticores, as well as possible chimeras and chaotic dragons."

Imrik made no secret of pointing out the weakness of humans and dwarves, that is, the air force is too weak, and high-speed flying behemoths will not be foolishly waiting for the artillery to shoot in mid-air. Need to fight with the enemy warlocks, I dare not put magic, an important factor affecting the war, in the hands of the imperial wild warlocks.

"Then do this. The manticore will be restricted by long-range firepower. We can't let this giant beast enter the infantry line." Magnus immediately made a decision after receiving the reply. He saw Imrik's thoughts, They don't just want to make some name in this war, but want to do something seriously.

"Yes, I can guarantee that this giant beast will not get half a step closer to the infantry line."

Although the matter of this giant mammoth has been concluded, the remaining giant beasts are not so easy to solve. Magnus rubbed his frowning brows, feeling a lot of pressure.

It is difficult for human grassroots soldiers to compare with Chaos, let alone with such a huge disparity in numbers.

The Caledor elves with outstanding combat power must be used for beheading assault tactics, and it seems too extravagant to place them in the resistance line.

The dwarves can hold their ground, but too few people are also a big problem.

"We need to place a reasonable position and maximize the firepower, otherwise it will be difficult to win."

After speaking, he pointed to several locations and estimated the distribution of some troops. Obviously, he planned to fire the artillery to the blast chamber first, and then engage in hand-to-hand combat.

Imrik looked at the direction Magnus was pointing at, and couldn't help but nodded. These positions were exactly the same as the positions he had reserved before, and they could form crossfire and maximize the power of the artillery.

"Although I don't want to interrupt you, there is one issue that needs to be considered." Then he looked at the High King, "Your Chaos cousin has also joined this war, and the scale is not small."

The Chaos Dwarves, the dwarven branch left behind in the Mourning Mountains after the Chaos Invasion, lost the protection of the gods and the mountain castle, and began to believe in the lesser god of Chaos, the Father of Darkness, Hasut.

They have stayed in the giant skull for thousands of years to worship the god who saved the race. Chaos energy replaced magic resistance, and the subtle and subtle rune magic became dark witchcraft. It is a disaster for this world to spread fear with its inherent talents and beliefs.

The chaotic dwarves are the best representatives. They often trade slaves with the chaotic tribes just to satisfy the ever-short labor force in the workshop. They will also join the invasion of the civilized world under the inspiration of the gods. Dwarf warriors, half-human bulls, Lava cannons, steel chariots, and demon war machines are all enough to dominate the battlefield. Fortunately, their population is very small, so they can only hide in the giant skull.

The High King's breathing began to become heavy. The Eternal Peak already knew about the Chaos Dwarves, and tried to conquer them, but they all failed without exception. Those war machines that distorted engineering and rune magic were more powerful than dwarves. The dwarven army was overwhelmed by a large number of hobgoblins, and the centaur tore through the meteorite armor, dripping with flesh and blood.

"Those guys!" Erickson clenched his fists, said with gritted teeth, and slammed his fist on the table. The dwarves' hatred for their Chaos cousins ​​was no less than that of the greenskins and the ratmen, but he did not explain why Imry Ke will specifically mention this matter.

"Since he doesn't want to explain, let me explain that there are a lot of artillery in the Chaos Dwarves' army. They are not artillery in the usual sense, but are driven by chaos energy. They are not just hell cannons. Although I don't know those The specific role of the thing, but you have to be prepared for the infantry position to be bombed."

Imrik explained to Magnus that he didn't know the specific situation of the Chaos Dwarves. When Lao Mi went to reconnaissance, as long as the distance was too close, he would be discovered. Now he only understands the effects of two types of artillery, one One is capable of launching lava, and the other is a cluster blasting bomb.

Even Lao Mi, who had the initial dragon saddle and eternal oath, was quickly broken through the magic shield, and now the coalition forces still have to deal with the enemy's artillery, so this war can only be said to have no advantage at all.
