I have millions of wage earners

Because to be honest, Flynn expected to carry out some catapult attacks or ballistae bombings before the war started.

It's just... this shelling and bombing has been going on for half an hour!

Is this fighting World War II?

The shelling, and it was such a high-density shelling, visually estimated that more than 10,000 standard round projectiles had been fired, but the imperial ammunition was never exhausted.

Then Flynn's mentality will definitely change!

You must know that this is the real world, not the world of the game. There is no such thing as unlimited ammunition and unlimited firepower.

This averages one round of boulders per minute, with at least 500 projectiles fired per round.

In this half hour, I have already obtained 15,000 boulders!

The imperial army came from afar, where did they get so many uniform projectiles?

Could it be said that the empire's large-scale military procurement reported by previous intelligence feedback was so powerful and the military supplies were so sufficient?

But projectiles are heavy and bulky, so it would be difficult to transport them, right?

It's a bit unreasonable for the Empire to bring so much ammunition in an away game.

It can’t be said that the empire also started the industrial revolution and opened up the railway transportation technology tree, right?

After half an hour of continuous stone-throwing bombardment, at least thousands of players on his side had died.

Although there are thousands of people, it is only an insignificant part of the entire battlefield.

However, thousands of casualties were lost before the fighting could even begin, which was indeed not conducive to maintaining morale.

What is even more alarming is that with the continuous bombardment of boulders, some relatively weak defense buildings are also showing signs of loosening and collapsing.

The main structures of most of the fortresses in the hastily built Maginot Line are very solid. Even if a boulder the size of a basketball or even several times larger is thrown at it, it will not cause any substantial damage to the fortress body. Kill.

But on the periphery of the fortress itself, there are many small bunkers, towers, trenches, shooting pits, arrow shields and the like.

These small fortifications cannot withstand the bombardment of huge rocks!

It can be seen that after half an hour of bombing, many small fortifications have been smashed by stones.

Now, the advance bombing before the battle only lasted half an hour, and the damage caused was still within the range that Flynn could accept.

The current losses will not have much impact on the defensive capabilities of the entire defense line.

But if the empire really managed to produce a huge amount of ammunition, could it continue bombing for several hours, or even for several days and nights?

Then your own Maginot Line of Defense is facing certain dangers!

I don’t say that it will definitely be smashed by the rain of stones from the sky, but at least there is a certain danger.

That's what Flynn is more worried about.

Compared with the continuous bombardment of catapults, there was another important point that made Flynn feel something was wrong.

That is, the bombing has been going on for so long, but I still haven't discovered where those catapults are!

According to the trajectory of the ballistics, it can indeed be analyzed that the approximate location of the catapult position where the shooting is taking place should be somewhere on the imperial position.

But whether it is Flynn himself or a small number of players who have awakened their visual skills, including using magic props to enhance their vision, or even patrolling high in the air with griffins.

But still no one has really seen the true body of the Empire's catapult or trebuchet.

At most, you can only see hundreds of boulders flying out of the air inexplicably, and then these boulders draw a parabola and fall into the interior of the Maginot Line.

Based on the parabola, the approximate location of the catapult can almost be determined.

But there, it looked like there was nothing!

There are only a huge number of imperial soldiers, and there is no catapult position at all!

Could it be said that the empire has mastered the technology of the invisible catapult-the phantom tank?

Simply massive catapults, although difficult to deal with, are not terrible.

The scary thing is the unknown opponent.

The war has been going on for so long, and so many artillery shells have been bombed. As a result, so far, I still haven't discovered the opponent's catapult position.

The opponent's position may even be invisible!

This is very scary.

Unexpectedly, the empire has mastered the technology of stealth launch!

This is so terrifying. If placed on the earth, this would be equivalent to a stealth nuclear missile.

For a while, Flynn had no good way to deal with the bombing of the invisible catapult.

Flynn was unwilling to leave the defense line, so he could only continue to be bombarded.

At this moment, Flynn couldn't help but miss Zhen who was placed in the castle by him.

If she were really present at the scene, with the rich knowledge accumulated by this hundreds-year-old girl over hundreds of years, she would definitely be able to see through what kind of deception the empire used, right?

The magic invisible catapult technology, Flynn at this technology tree point, and the players who have been bombarded all the time are a little troubled!

However, thanks to the fact that the Imperial Catapult is invisible, no one can find its specific location.

But because the cannonballs fired by the catapults are tangible and have obvious parabolas.

Therefore, by working backwards based on the parabola, we can determine the approximate location of the Empire's catapult position.

It should be, on a slightly raised slope less than 1 kilometer back in front of their position.

That large flat slope was suitable for placing a large number of catapults, and there seemed to be only a sparsely small number of imperial soldiers on the slope in that area - in other words, a lot of space was reserved for catapults.

In addition, those parabolic shells were indeed fired from that position.

Therefore, the position of the invisible trebuchet is basically a stone hammer.

So the question is, if you don’t want to be bombarded by trebuchets all the time, you have to find a way to remove the empire’s trebuchets.

Do you want to leave the Maginot Line and take the initiative to attack?

It's not like there are no trebuchets on Flynn's side.

However, because the Maginot Line was built in a hurry, most of the work hours were spent building defensive buildings.

This resulted in that although the fortifications, bunkers, towers, etc. of the Maginot Line were almost fully repaired.

But correspondingly, the Maginot Line is similar to defensive props such as trebuchets, and the number is relatively small.

Moreover, they are mainly small and medium-sized, and there are no large-scale catapult positions at all, so they are unable to compete with the empire's artillery positions.

On Flynn's side, sporadic trebuchets were unable to counter the Empire.

At the same time, Flynn did not dare to rashly gather his trebuchets and then confront the opponent.

One is that it cannot be blasted, and the other is that after being exposed, the opponent adjusts the angle to counterattack, and then all his catapults will be wiped out!
