At the same time, Priest Udora, who was looking at the Lamu River crossing, couldn't believe that 2,000 cavalries would be directly destroyed by two "bombs" falling from the sky.
But she didn't vent her anger on the fleeing cavalries of Bindu. Instead, she sat in the tent with a gloomy face, watching the advisors carefully asking them about the war, and she remained silent.
Some of the soldiers who escaped back were still injured. At this time, the priests had just pulled out the fragments from their bodies. After receiving the divine treatment, they obviously recovered a little. However, the smell of blood in the room was still abnormally strong, which made Udora frown involuntarily.
"What the hell is going on?"
Seeing that the advisors seemed to have finished summarizing, she finally spoke.
"Madam, the thing that flew above our heads before seems to be a new weapon developed by Lachman. It can project some kind of air weapon and cause damage through explosion. Even 'anti-magic terra' can't resist its damage … "
The advisors explained for a long time, but Udora was not surprised, "Those sorcerers are not stupid after all. If they can't develop something to counter it, I will be surprised. So — How do you think we should deal with it? "
The people looked at each other. One of the advisors took the metal triangular piece inside the bomb with both hands and handed it over, "Madam Priest … We have a look. This kind of fragment penetrated the knights' armor. According to the scene they described, many people were pierced on the spot, and even their heads were cut off. With such power, I am afraid it is difficult to defend against ordinary shields or shields."
"That is to say, we can only be beaten?"
Udora predicted that Lachman had a way to deal with "anti-magic terra", but she did not expect that the opponent would bring out such a level of "big killing weapon". She had prepared for it, but now she found that such preparation obviously could not deal with it.
"Madam Priest, I am afraid it is difficult to defend against this kind of bomb. However, the strength of the enemy is not necessarily that bomb, but that they can fly freely in the sky … without any scruples."
The advisors keenly grasped the core of the problem, "According to the report, when the cavalries rushed over, the 40,000 troops had completely formed a battle formation. This shows that they have long been aware of our intentions … Madam, if our every move is monitored by the enemy, I am afraid there is no way for us to win this war. "
"Talk about countermeasures. That flying thing is at least a thousand meters high. Even if it flies at a low altitude of five hundred meters, it will be difficult for our magic or long-range weapons to accurately hit it. "
Udora frowned. She was obviously troubled by the problem.
The advisors obviously had a countermeasure, but the one who spoke looked around hesitantly and whispered, "Maybe … the price will be higher."
"Which war doesn't come with a price?"
Udora's seemingly thin fingers suddenly clench into a fist, "As long as we can solve the problem, we have to try at all costs!"
***
The next day, the news from the reconnaissance plane reached Sodelor's command center in the inner city, which surprised him. "Speed up crossing the river? It seems like this guy still has a trump card … "
Logically speaking, after knowing that nearly 40,000 soldiers had entered La Xia City, normal people would never choose to attack the city with the same number of 40,000 soldiers.
In the era of cold weapons, it usually took seven to ten times the number of enemies to directly surround a city. Sodelor dared to attack the city with less than 2,000 troops because he had mastered hot weapons and air supremacy. But at present, the enemy did not seem to have hot weapons. The only explanation was that the enemy had something else to rely on, so they were willing to take the risk.
After all, an army of 40,000 soldiers could not come and go as they pleased. If they stayed for one more day, it would cost an astronomical figure. Sodelor had La Xia City as a ready-made granary, but the enemy's food had to be transported from three nearby cities by nearly 8,000 troops.
"What do you think?"
Sodelor turned to ask his advisors. He pointed to the map and said, "The intelligence shows that they don't have many mobile forces. After the Bindu Kingdom's cavalry was blown up, it is estimated that they will not attack on a large scale again. Then the safety of the airport in the rear should not be worried. But the problem now is, how are they going to attack the city? "
Although the advisors could not predict the future, they could roughly judge the attack method of these people according to the information of Casley's men.
But it was obvious that with such a primitive attack plan, it would not be a problem to defend La Xia for ten years.
After much discussion, the final decision was to "wait and see". First, because there was no way to judge more information at present, and second, because the Kingdom of Karen's army was still in the process of being transported. Even if they wanted to fight now, they did not have enough manpower.
Sodelor was not satisfied with the decision. He asked, "Then change the frequency and scope of the reconnaissance plane. Conduct low-altitude reconnaissance! I need more information. By the way, is the 'communication circle' installed on the plane settled? "
The advisor answered that it was being improved, but soon a soldier reported that the improved reconnaissance plane had just started patrolling.
"Adjust the channel and see if we can talk."
Sodelor's expression suddenly became excited. The previous' communication circle 'only allowed the paratroopers to communicate with the artillery in the rear. The headquarters was not far from the artillery battery and only played the role of overall planning. But if this thing could be placed on the reconnaissance plane to communicate at any time, it would be a huge step forward for the whole tactical system.
Of course, this idea was put forward by Roddy. He also proposed the concept of 'AWACS', saying that in future battles, there might not be a need to invest tens of thousands of troops to slowly move to the destination. A few squads would provide the coordinates, a squadron of fighter jets would directly bomb according to the coordinates, and the AWACS would direct and plan in the air, watching everything in real time.
As for the enemy, they could only take a beating from beginning to end!
Sodelor simply could not refuse this kind of war method.
That was why he couldn't wait to turn on the communications circle in front of him, taking the channel scale from his aide and personally adjusting it. The earpiece that had only been noisy finally began to hum, and Sodelor could immediately tell that it was the sound of the drone's propellers. "This is HQ, Falcon," he said. "Please report your position. Over."
The pilot on the other side knew that someone would speak, but he did not expect it to be Sodelor. But his mental fortitude was obviously strong, and he immediately reported, "This is Falcon One. We are currently patrolling above the Lamu River south of Rasha. Over."
Sodelor was about to say something when he suddenly heard footsteps behind him. He turned around and saw Roddy standing at the door with Merinthra and Naiffy. He wanted to salute them, but Roddy quickly waved his hand. "The military situation is more important. Don't worry about me."
