In the middle of the night, Lin Yuanzheng began to bombard Dongsifeng with artillery fire, and Ricardo quickly mobilized artillery to counterattack.

The war entered the first phase of the "gunfire showdown".

The sharp hissing of cannonballs swept across the sky, blasting fires on the snow-capped mountains.

The terrain on the mountain is complex and there are many natural bunkers. The defending soldiers have long chosen their positions and hid in the gaps between the stones or in the holes dug in advance. Thousands of shells rained down, causing far fewer casualties than normal.

In the headquarters, a mechanical monster with multiple arms was writing quickly, drawing a map on paper with tools such as pencils, compasses, rulers, and squares.

Its speed is very fast, comparable to that of a printer, and with the soft sound of swoosh, the complex topographic map with densely covered mountains and rivers appears in front of the eyes.

One of the robotic arms is equipped with crayons of different colors to mark the finished topographic map.

The enemy's firepower points are circled by red crayons, which also include the number of artillery pieces and the terrain height.

The reason why Ricardo is called "the eagle owl on the shoulders of the dragon" is because of his royal spirit "the royal cartographer".

Stand tall and look far.

The moment the map was completed, all the arms of the royal cartographer raised. Ricardo took out the map, looked at it a few times, and after confirming it was correct, handed it over to the messenger beside him.

"Send it to the artillery commander!"

"Let this fox taste our power!"

After a while, the sound of artillery shelling came from our position.

Intensive shells streaked across the night sky and smashed wildly towards the red circle marked on the map.

The role of the Royal Cartographer is very similar to that of Chen Xing's tactical satellite, that is, the "eye of the sky" that can monitor the battlefield in real time.

But by comparison, the Royal Cartographer had a larger and farther scouting area.

Chen Xing's tactical satellite is only about ten kilometers in diameter, while the royal cartographer can reach eighty kilometers in diameter.

Although in terms of reconnaissance range, royal cartographers have more strategic value, especially for artillery with a maximum range of 40 to 50 kilometers, a 5-kilometer radius reconnaissance range seems a bit tasteless.

However, the delay of the images transmitted by the reconnaissance satellite was only a few seconds, and it took a lot of time for the royal cartographer to draw a map, with a delay of more than ten minutes.

On the battlefield, changing rapidly, every minute of delay will bring huge changes, not to mention up to ten minutes.

Lin Yuanzheng seized on this point and ordered the artillery unit to conduct only three rounds of shelling at the same location, and then immediately change positions to minimize the influence of the royal cartographer.

Although the artillery mecha is a bit clumsy, since it is a mecha, it was designed to be easy to move, and it is not difficult to change the position.

Even though the artillery of the defenders was extremely accurate, like a divine aid, the results were far below the conventional level.

The number of artillery pieces on Ricardo’s side is relatively small, and the ammunition reserve is not much, but it has an advantageous terrain.

The number of artillery pieces on Lin Yuanzheng's side has tripled, and there are enough shells, which can be replenished at any time.

The artillery duel started in the middle of the night and continued until the night of the third day.

The first duel between the eagle owl and the fox was a draw.

Among the four recognized military geniuses in the Red Clay Continent, Ricardo has the most balanced ability, which can be said to be both offensive and defensive.

What he is best at is arranging troops and commanding large army groups to conduct frontal operations, from training soldiers to organizing officers, structuring the command system, collecting intelligence, and commanding in wartime, covering everything.

It is a typical "textbook combat".

And the "Fox of Qingqiu" Lin Yuanzheng also took this route. He graduated from the Military Department of Black Tower College and is one of Bolag's direct disciples.

Defeat Ricardo, who graduated from the Military Academy of Monitor Lizard City, to gain fame for the Black Tower Academy and Master Bolag.

In contrast, Bai Bubai, the "trickster" of the Duchy of Tezera, took a completely different path from the two.

The trickster pursues the classical tactics of the Eastern Continent of "the trick of the soldier", and pays attention to the unexpected and unexpected tricks and tricks.

In addition, Saudi Arabia's military genius, "Eye of the Sandstorm" Aladdin Basem is good at special operations of fast-moving troops, and achieves strategic advantages with a small number of elite troops.

This combat method originated from the desert cavalry of the sand country throughout the ages.

Said to be desert cavalry, more precisely desert raiders or sand thieves. They galloped out of the desert on camels, plundered everywhere, and returned with a load. If they encounter a large army of enemy troops who come to encircle and suppress them, they will retreat to the desert of death, using the endless sand sea and the ubiquitous sandstorm to devour all opponents.

Before motor vehicles became the new land masters, desert cavalry was a lingering nightmare for all the farming peoples on the red soil continent.

In the heyday of the sand kingdom, half of the sacred mountain was once conquered, and the ten city-states and the Duchy of Tezera were all lost under the iron hooves of desert cavalry.

Fortunately, the Dragon Claw Mountains blocked the advance of the desert cavalry, otherwise the Red Country would have perished.

In a cave somewhere in the East Fourth Peak, Chen Xing and Ye Yang Bailiu, who had nothing to do, played checkers, and saw Yue Canglian and Shanna watching the battle beside them.

On the chessboard, Chen Xing's pieces were scattered, and he was obviously at a disadvantage.

He has been implying that Yeyang Bailiu, throughout the ages, those who dared to play chess to win against their masters basically did not end well. The latter disagreed, manipulating the chess pieces, approaching step by step.

"You are so boring." Chen Xing said in a bad tone.

"Someone can't afford to lose," Ye Yang Bailiu said with pursed lips.

"I heard that your Ye Yang family adheres to the ancient traditions of the Eastern Continent, and women pay attention to the traditional virtues of taking the husband as the key link." Chen Xing said, "Look at your fierceness in playing chess, let alone the husband as the key link, I It looks like he is about to murder his husband."

"Who told you?" Ye Yang Bailiu asked strangely. This is indeed the group training of Ye Yang's family, but in her memory, she only mentioned "from the beginning to the end" to the other party, and did not say "take the husband as the link".

"Your sister said it." Chen Xing showed a smug smile.

Hearing that it was the little traitor in the family, Ye Yang Bailiu's face turned cold and he spat, "What a money loser who turns his elbows out!"

"Then you just admit that there is this tradition?" Chen Xing's smile became more and more complacent, just like when he was in the small hotel, he took Yeyang Bailiu's key.

Ye Yang Bailiu rolled his eyes and said angrily, "Even if the husband is the key link, it doesn't say that you can't win at chess, right?"

"Why didn't you say it? Look, if the wife wins the chess game, the husband will feel stuffy and uncomfortable in his chest." dont you agree?"

"Don't take the practice of training court maids as an example." Ye Yang Bailiu patted the chessboard with a thin face and said, "If you can find out in the classics that the husband is the key link, it is an example of you cannot win against your husband in chess. , I'll let you go today!"

She didn't pay attention for a while, and she used too much force to break the pieces.

"Eh, eh!" Chen Xing kept pointing at the chessboard, reminding the opponent that he had committed a foul.

Ye Yang Bailiu came back to his senses and found that he had been tricked. He gritted his teeth in anger, stared at Chen Xing, his almond eyes were about to burst into flames, "I really want to strangle you bastard!"

She did what she said, and stood up aggressively, looking like she was going to eat people. Seeing this, Chen Xing hurriedly hid behind Jianyue Canglian and Shanna, and did not forget to turn around and make faces at Yeyang Bailiu.

Ye Yang Bailiu was so angry that he turned his fingers into claws and rushed towards him.

Chen Xing's body is flexible, and Shanna's body is big enough, almost the width of two people, standing with Jianyue Canglian is equivalent to a large wardrobe plus a wine cabinet, and dodges to the side, avoiding Ye Yang. Bai Liu's scratching.

However, the role of the human flesh partition is always limited. Yeyang Bailiu is 1.81 meters tall, giving full play to the advantage of long hands and long legs, catching up with Chen Xing in two or three times. Just as he was about to grab the opponent's back collar, he saw a flash of light, and Chen Xing turned into countless small arcs that bounced several meters away.

"Don't let me catch you!"

Ye Yang Bai Liu said bitterly. At this moment, there was a sudden boom from the top of the head, the ground shook, and countless sands fell.

Shanna immediately rushed between Chen Xing and Yeyang Bailiu, propped up on one knee, and raised her shield upwards to prevent the cave from collapsing.

Seeing Yue Canglian, she opened her hands and erected a psionic shield to protect everyone inside.

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"

The cannonballs fell one after another on the top of the head, the sand and soil poured down in a rush, and the cave collapsed in an instant.

After a few long minutes, the shelling finally ended. Chen Xing, who had been teleported long before the cave collapsed, looked at the gravel and muck all over the ground, and there was still blue smoke on it. He was about to rummage forward, when suddenly there was a vibration under his feet, and he hurriedly jumped away.

Immediately afterwards, a thick trunk emerged from the ground, and the green branches and leaves sent out the three women buried in the ground.

This ancient tree is one of Yeyang Bailiu's imperial spirits, the ancient tree of life!

"You're really going to fly separately when a disaster is imminent." Ye Yang Bai Liu said resentfully.

Seeing that his wife was unhappy, Chen Xing quickly explained, "I can't help you by staying here, so I might as well come out earlier, so as not to drag you down."

In order to show his favor, Chen Xing also stepped forward to help Yeyang Bailiu pat the dust on his buttocks.

Ye Yang Bailiu was not angry, and at this time, he dared to take advantage of her, grabbed the villain with a backhand, and then used his physical advantage to push the opponent to the ground.

"Apologize!"

"I was wrong, wrong!"

She didn't let go until the other party repeatedly begged for mercy.

"It's so heavy, I can barely breathe." Chen Xing glanced at Ye Yang Bailiu's body and muttered, "Have you eaten too much recently and gained weight?"

Ye Yang Bailiu blushed immediately, and raised his hand to hit, "Die!"

"Don't, don't fight, I'm wrong, isn't it? Ye Yang is not fat at all, and has the most beautiful figure." Chen Xing raised his hands and looked like he was surrendering.

Ye Yang Bailiu gave him a savage look, then turned his face away, and cleaned the dirt on his clothes by himself.

Chen Xing didn't continue to play, after all, he was still fighting, so there was a limit to flirting.
