Chapter 554: CLXXXIII. Heaven Port has its own bomber
Due to the development of Magic Energy Industry and the technological revolution of the Great Navigation Era, the form of warfare on the Western Continent had already changed before the arrival of the Outer Heaven Visitors led by Lagrange.
Apart from special operations like Magic Rune Heavy Cavalry and Heavy Soldiers, knight battles had evolved into positional warfare. Weapons such as muskets or magic-guided rifles became mainstream, as no one wanted to have a direct shootout with the enemy; soldiers would dig foxholes to gain an advantage.
Gradually, it directly evolved into trench warfare.
The vast area between Silver Moon City and Drifting City was filled with barbed wire, chevaux de frise, and complex trenches.
No one knew what Crocodile Island and the Eternal Sect were up to. For the past few days, they had been eerily quiet, hiding behind Silver Moon City.
Black Sail could only stay on high alert, preventing them from breaking through to Drifting City. Even if surrounded, they could still be starved to death.
The current primary military objective was to act as the overseer army for Uborio.
Fen was in charge of the left-wing defense, while Liszt was responsible for the right-wing defense. They operated separately, forming a flanking position.
Liszt was grateful that Fen brought some intellectuals from Heaven Port this time. Swan’s mind was outdated, and those pirates he picked would be shot to pieces here.
As an old political prisoner, Fen’s civil engineering skills were maxed out. The people he brought were also smart, and there were no problems with the field fortifications.
Although Fen wasn’t on Liszt’s side, he had some of his own followers working on the military constructions here.
