Chapter 873 Completely crazy! Transia brand meat grinder, you can trust it
"How is the performance of this new batch of newcomers?"
In the headquarters of the western section of the Maginot Line of Defense, Murphy sat on his chair and asked with interest. Adele, who was standing next to him fully armed and ready to attack, glanced at the calculation orb.
Record, say softly:
"Just five minutes ago, the last new team sent to the front line was destroyed. The five hundred new soldiers only persisted in the trenches for one morning. Currently, there are no more than twenty people alive, although there are also battles.
Intense factors, but their performance is indeed not as strong as the previously carefully selected foreigners.
Quite average in terms of adaptability and talent."
"Well, maybe this is normal."
Murphy shrugged, looking a little regretful but not sad and said:
"There is always a difference between one in a million and one in a hundred, but this performance is already much better than that of the new recruits who went into battle for the first time. This fully proves that our heroic spirits still have a lot of potential to be tapped. In addition to them, there are no casualties among the soldiers on the battlefield.
how?"
"It's still within the acceptable range."
Adele stretched out her hand and nodded on the psychic sand table shaped by the goatman spellcaster in front of her, and she said:
"Because the Jackals' military strength has not yet been deployed, the only defense line attacked this morning was the 'Nack Mine' in the east-central part. However, judging from the current situation of the Jackals passing through the filthy swamp on a large scale, the battle will occur this afternoon.
The frequency will be greatly increased, but there are actually only a few terrains on this front where it is easiest to launch a large-scale attack and may be captured quickly, and large armies have been stationed in these key areas.
According to the predictions made by General Kudel's command, the war, including the 'Lord's Position' where you are located, will enter a fever pitch in the next two days, and only then will the truly tragic casualties be revealed to you.
However, the commanders of each defense zone have made complete preparations.”
"There are no complete preparations for a war of this scale, Adele. The number of gnolls on the opposite side is more than five times that of the defenders on the defensive line, not to mention that they also have kobolds who are almost impossible to kill to help them fight."
Murphy shook his head and said:
"Although this is by no means the first time I have dealt with gnolls, when I actually sit here, I can feel the pressure that every black disaster in the past has brought to the civilized camp. The almost undefeable terrain in Transia
It's so terrible, maybe we need to prepare in advance.
Send an order to Miriam for me, asking her to summon militiamen from various places to assemble in the towns behind the Maginot Line now, and include these soldiers into the reserve system commanded by Kudel.
This may be the final advantage of the Transians.
The quality of the militiamen in our ghost place is comparable to the second-line regular armies in other places, so we don’t have to worry about them collapsing due to lack of training when they are sent to the front line.”
"boom"
Before Murphy could finish speaking, the door to the command room was pushed open, and Ms. Dorothy, the boss of the Blood Rat Gang who looked anxious, ran in with a battle report. She said hoarsely:
"Sir Governor, something unexpected happened on the central battlefield. Just now, a group of kobolds dug into the trench through a temporary tunnel. They used a large amount of explosives to destroy a trench, and the two hundred people who were guarding it were all..."
"Where do they get their explosives?"
Murphy's expression suddenly changed. He stood up and asked:
"When did the Jackals join this new tactic? Don't those guys always hate explosions and fire?"
"The explosives came from the Brass Fortress, Lord Governor."
Dorothy said seriously:
"The Silver Dwarf Priests took the risk to visit the explosion site, and they brought back the exact information. It was the explosive used by the Brass Dwarves when mining. There was also a stamp from a mining company in the Brass Fortress in the wreckage.
We are unable to assess how many explosives the Jackals have in their hands, but the cunning Hugersen must have obtained this batch of supplies when the swamp advanced, but it has been suppressing it until now.
And according to the dwarf priests, the major mining companies on the Brass Dwarf side have the habit of storing large amounts of explosives at low prices to avoid market fluctuations. In addition, the Brass Dwarves have stored a large amount of explosives near the fortress in preparation for war.
It’s also an astronomical number.
If the gnolls really find the ammunition depot where the dwarves were buried somewhere in the ruins, we will be in big trouble."
"Immediately send out the Thorn Nightcrawlers to detect the Jackal's explosives storage point as quickly as possible."
Murphy's brows furrowed at this moment and he said:
"This unexpected factor that is very unfavorable to our side must be eliminated as soon as possible. Adele, inform Kudel and ask him to change his tactics. Forget it, I am not good at commanding. The more complicated the situation, the less I can manage it.
Let him make the decision.
But in order to send a warning message to the Crimean Fortress and the Jackals possess explosives, the Invincible Wall has also become their optional breakthrough direction. All preparations for this line of defense are geared towards defending Transia. Once
The Crimean Fortress was accidentally breached, and I simply can’t imagine what kind of rotten situation Kavhoka will become.”
Murphy never realized that he also seemed to be gifted with a crow's mouth.
Less than an hour after his warning message was sent, something happened in the Crimean Fortress.
The Jackals conducted another close-in explosion hosted by the kobolds. This time Xu Gesen used more explosives and sent more crazy "kobold artificial soldiers". They adopted a crazy strategy regardless of casualties.
After the explosion, an outpost fortress in front of the Crimean Fortress was directly destroyed.
This unexpected attack direction instantly ignited the prelude to the offensive and defensive battle of the Crimean Fortress.
General Baldwin, who was caught off guard, showed the true style of a general. He did not panic because of the Jackal's tactics, but immediately mobilized his army to launch a resolute counterattack to recapture the collapsed outpost.
Although the Crimean Fortress is strong, it is only two levels deep. The result of capturing the front is absolutely disastrous.
Both sides knew that this was a "match point", so the amount of force invested exceeded the expectations of other commanders. When Lao Qin brought the Scarlet Hammer and Sickle Regiment to support, the Winter Wolf Legion in the Crimean Fortress had already been lost.
There were three entire brigades, totaling 1,500 people.
The gnolls, relying on the kobold servants, suffered slightly less losses, and they had already occupied the ruins of the fortress.
Everyone knew how bloody the next capture would be, but General Baldwin did not hesitate at all. Under the constant bombardment of heavy artillery, the heroic Winter Wolf soldiers almost attacked the Jackal's defense based on the ruins one after another. However, the easy defender
The terrain was so difficult to attack that even Lao Qin couldn't find the right direction to support him even if he wanted to help.
In desperation, Master Qin could only call for "air strike".
Under the darkness of dusk, a hundred-man Blood Vulture Vampire Bomber took off from behind the Maginot Line of Defense. Under the guidance of Lao Qin's close comrade-in-arms, the undead corpse witch Old Baldwin, he conducted a precise bombing.
One hundred light aerial bombs were dropped in three batches, and the small outpost fortress with incendiary area was repeatedly "washed" three times with incendiary bombs. Only then was it difficult to clear out the armed kobolds on the periphery, but they wanted to completely recapture it.
In the ruins of the outpost, the Winter Wolf Legion had to enter the fortress ruins that were already filled with the disgusting smell of barbecue and clean them layer by layer.
It was obviously more cost-effective to leave this kind of dangerous work to foreign heroes who were not afraid of death. General Baldwin was not stubborn this time and accepted Lao Qin's help.
The clean-up operation lasted until midnight before the recalcitrant Jackals were cleared, but neither Lao Qin nor Baldwin could laugh. The collapsed outpost in front of them represented a terrible change.
Firearms and explosives are no longer unique weapons to the civilized camp. Jackals have also illuminated such "war technology" through their "windfall", and they also have kobold servants who can dig underground.
The combination of the two will bring about a scene that is enough to subvert the traditional black disaster model.
Lao Qin already had a strong uneasiness in his heart, and a few hours later, in the early morning, his uneasiness was completely detonated.
Within the entire Maginot Line of Defense, the Jackals launched no less than thirteen large and small explosions in the two hours in the early morning. In conjunction with the Jackals' night march, in the early morning of the next day, the central Nak
The trench position in front of the mine has been completely occupied by gnolls.
Everyone knew that the decisive battle of Maginot would be an extremely brutal war, but no one expected that the decisive battle would be so "hot" from the beginning.
"We must recapture those trenches, otherwise the effect of positional bombardment will be weakened to an unacceptable level! The Jackals have also learned to use trenches to avoid bombardment, and they are using this method to weaken our firepower advantage."
After just having breakfast in the early morning, Lao Qin shouted to the entire Scarlet Hammer and Sickle group in front of him and the nearby players who had been summoned:
"The enemy is very cunning! Brothers, you all know that they have learned to use explosives, which means that we have to suffer more tragic losses to win, but at this time, the value of us undead heroes will become more prominent!
We are about to launch a determined assault into those trenches that belong to us and drive the gnolls out.
I will personally lead the charge.
I know many of us already consider Transia our second home, and now our second home needs us!”
The Hammers and Sickles are a guild composed of retired veterans in real life. They didn't have much thoughts when facing this difficulty. They just quietly arranged their equipment. The other players were much noisier, shouting slogans about killing the gnolls and starting from the logistics.
Collect explosives and winning wine from the official.
Although the content of the mission is indeed dangerous, they obviously do not think that the Jackals can defeat them by hiding in the trenches. Many previous battles have shown that the undead heroes can defeat a similar number of Jackals in close combat as long as they are determined enough in close combat.
What's more, this time there are 500 People's Army soldiers fighting alongside them.
Ten minutes later, the assault begins!
Lao Qin, who was wearing an exoskeleton and brandishing a chain sword, led the troops forward. The artillery positions at the rear opened fire to cover their charge. The jackals in the trenches also howled, but they did not rush out to fight the players. Instead, they fired with a
He hides in the trench in a very meticulous way and waits for the bayonet to see red.
Seeing this scene, Lao Qin frowned even more tightly.
These dogs really learned how to do it!
This is clearly their combat mode on the Black Flame Pass position. They stay in the trenches to avoid the enemy's firepower advantage. The enemy does not show their heads, which makes the blood vulture claws in the players' hands useless. There are also tunnel operations and approach.
Explosions are all methods that players have used before.
Wow, these bastards' war talents are really terrifying.
No, it’s not so much the learning ability of the individual Jackals, but rather the commander of these Jackals at this time, the guy named Xu Gesen!
It is consciously learning from the enemy to add to the ancient and effective tactics of the jackals. If this guy is really allowed to come back alive, the civilized camp will probably have to face a group of jackals using muskets and explosives to clear the way during the next black disaster.
There are gunmen.
