Chapter 4: Trembling Night (2) Night Attack

On the front battlefield in Manhattan, the fighting that had been flying for a day finally stopped temporarily at night.

Matthew sat on the edge of the trench, his face covered in dust and his arms wrapped in gauze, all of which had been left on him by the day's battles.

It's almost the limit. Matthew looked up at the stars in the sky and sighed in his heart, whether it was equipment supplies or the spirit of the soldiers, they were already reaching their limits, and the battle situation would only get worse and worse, and the possibility of losing the position was gradually increasing.

"You look bothered, Chief of Staff Matthew. Green walked up to him, "I think you should get some sleep, there's a battle to be fought tomorrow." ”

"I can't sleep, Green. Matthew smiled at Green, "You don't look like you can't sleep, do you?"

"I really can't sleep. Green sat down beside Matthew, "The balance of the battle is tipping, but what bothers me is that it's probably not our side that has the advantage. ”

"Are you well equipped there?"

"Let's hold on for a few more days. Green smiled bitterly, "Both sea and air supplies have been completely blocked, and the supplies at the headquarters can't support it for long, but what is more important is the spirit of the soldiers." ”

"That's right. Matthew nodded approvingly, "We all have only one goal in our minds now, and that is to hold our ground. But if we continue like this, even if we want to persevere, I am afraid that our spirit will be worn down to the brink of collapse. ”

"Many of the soldiers couldn't sleep like us. Green looked at Matthew and said, "Everyone actually knows in their hearts that the battle situation has deteriorated, but they still insist on fighting, and everyone is here with the determination to die!"

"When the position is lost, it is time for us to face death. Matthew laughed as he said this, "I didn't feel scared at all, but I felt very calm." ”

"If that happens, we will inevitably live and die with the position. Green smiled too, "No one is afraid of death, because I am willing to give my life to protect what we want to protect!"

"Now everything depends on X. Matthew then added, "If I'm right, they should be almost there, and I just hope they can go a little faster, so that the soldiers don't need to bleed any more." ”

"I believe in them. Green looked confident, "They have already annihilated Beelzebub, one of the demons of the Seven Sins, which is enough to prove how strong they are, and they will definitely live up to our expectations!"

"That's what I thought, too. Matthew stood up and glanced into the distance, "The enemy's strength has increased, and our strength is only decreasing, and tomorrow's battle will be even worse." ”

"Do you know who is leading another Hell legion?" Green dusted off his clothes and stood up from the ground, "I have to say, that guy is really good at picking time." ”

"It's not certain yet. Matthew frowned, "I do have a few people in mind, but until I see myself, everything is just speculation." ”

"Again, everything was just our guess until we met me. ”

"Almost all the planes that tried to break through the enemy's air defense line were shot down today, right?" Matthew asked Green.

"All of them were shot down. Green sighed and said, "Those monsters in the sky form an impenetrable net, and our fighters have no way to break through their blockade. ”

"I remember there was intelligence that there would be an airdrop tonight, right?"

"There is indeed information about what it says, and if it is based on this situation, it is likely that this mission will be canceled.

As they spoke, a loud roar rang out in the sky, and they looked up to see a few points of light faintly flickering in the dark sky.

But soon a group of bat-like monsters struck at the shining points of light like a black hurricane, and in just a few minutes, all the points of light disappeared, and only one after another fireballs flashed with red fire fell from the sky.

When the roar of the explosion as the fireball fell to the ground completely disappeared, Matthew and Green just stared grimly at the place where they had fallen.

"If you can't break through the blockade during the day, then it's even harder at night. Matthew drew a cross on his chest to mourn the fallen warriors.

"They knew before they left that they probably wouldn't come back. "But they chose to come here anyway and die as a glorious warrior!"

"That would be our fate. Matthew stared at the demon's station in the distance and said, word for word, "That day will come, and we will face it without fear." ”

Astarot, who also saw the complete destruction of the supply flight formation, smiled with great satisfaction, which meant that the enemy he was now facing had once again lost very valuable supplies.

"Humans are so stupid. Astarrot smiled at Mammon, who had been looking at the human position, "I knew that it was impossible to break through the blockade in the air, and I was so stupid to send it to the door again and again." ”

"Has the formation been wiped out by all of your men?" asked Mammon, turning to look at Astarot.

"Of course. Astarrot was proud of this, "No one is likely to break through the blockade here, and you should have seen what will happen to those humans in the end." ”

"Good. Mammon nodded in satisfaction, "The scales of victory are entirely on our side, and it's time to give them the final blow." ”

"That's right, we'll launch a full-scale attack this time by tomorrow morning, and we'll see how far they can struggle by then. ”

"It's not about waiting for tomorrow morning. Mammon glanced at Astarot and said, "Now it's time to attack." ”

"You said now?" Astarott looked puzzled, "Do you want to launch a night attack now?" But the battle plan is obviously to fight during the day, why did it suddenly change tonight?"

"In fact, I've always had spies inside their headquarters. "My spies will start to cause chaos in the headquarters tonight, which means that if they attack tonight, they should be in a state of collapse very quickly." ”

"Why didn't you ever tell us about this?" Astarot yelled at him in displeasure, "did you never tell us that you still had spies among them?"

"As I said, there's no need to get to know you so much. Mammon obviously didn't bother to explain to him, "I have my own principles of action in this war, and of course I have set the principles, should I ask you for everything?"

Astarot didn't continue to criticize, because he knew that no matter how much he asked next, Mammon wouldn't answer again.

"Well, you didn't tell us, but it's very useful information. Astarrot forcibly suppressed the displeasure in his heart, "Then do you mean to launch a night attack tonight?"

"That's right, we must launch a night attack tonight. "This is the perfect opportunity for us to destroy the nail that has made us the most uncomfortable, don't you think it's what you want to do?" ”

"What else am I here for?" Astarrot laughed, "Then I'll give the order to attack, and soon those stupid humans will face death in agony!"

With that, Astarot turned and left, while Mammon did not move, but still looked at the position.

"There's already a war going on over there. A tall, lanky man stepped out of the darkness behind Mammon, "Our plan is being carried out very well." ”

"Your splinters seem to be everywhere. Mammon smiled, "It's true that the plan is going very well, how is your situation there?"

"It's already a fight. The Nameless Man laughed, "The soldiers in the headquarters who have been parasitized by my splinter have been dispatched, and they are now in complete chaos. ”

"Very good. "But don't forget the share I told you to find from the database, and even in the midst of such a scuffle, you must get it to me." ”

"If you don't say I'll do it, I'll do it. The nameless man replied, "With that thing, the implementation of the plan will be guaranteed, so I will definitely do my best to get it." ”

"How's that human?" asked Mammon.

"Do you mean Val Bayano?"

"That's right, it's him. ”

"He recognizes our goals and can be said to be our like-minded companions. The Nameless Man replied, "I think he should play an important role in the rest of the battle." ”

"But if the time comes, you should know what I mean. A coldness flashed in Mammon's eyes.

"Then I won't be merciful. The Nameless Man already knew what Mammon was trying to say, "When the time comes, I'll do what I'm supposed to do, and you don't have to worry about that." ”

"Do I need to worry about your cruelty?" laughed Mammon, "I'm worried that the human will drag you down, that's all." ”

"He won't be a drag on me, no one can be a burden to me, and if anyone wants to do that, it will be the most painful thing waiting for him. ”

"I'm sure you'll do that. Mammon admonished, "As for Rajer, you should be sure that you can get rid of him." If you have a hard time, you can wait until I arrive. ”

"I can kill him without your hands, and what you need to worry about most now is not Rajer, but those three humans with the title of king, right?"

"You told me they were on the side of the strong. Mammon smiled and said, "Then I'll let them see what the real strong are, so that nothing goes wrong." ”

"Perhaps. "But I can't guarantee that things won't change, and if they're going to be on Rajer's side, you'll have to be prepared for a bitter fight." ”

"Of course I'm ready for that, and it's best if they're on our side, but if they don't want to, then I'll have to make the kings understand that they're just humans after all!"

"Then I wish you the best of luck. The Nameless Man said as he disappeared into the darkness again, "I'll be waiting for you at HQ when the next step can be implemented." ”

"You have to be careful there. Mammon watched the nameless man disappear into the darkness, "The next step is ready, let's get there and let's get started." ”

The battle horn sounded, and Mammon smiled as he looked at the position in front of him, knowing that the time to move on to the next step had come.
