Chapter 50 Guarding the Flag at the Bridgehead
Bypassing the hills, there is a vast grassland, and the feeling of running on the grassland is completely different from riding a horse on the main road.
The team was silently hurrying, Wang Qing had nothing to do, and approached Xue Lei and asked:
"Commander, how did you know that someone was coming over there just now? Or the time, the number of people can be predicted? ”
"Leading the troops, looking at the map is the basic skill. Now the player's horse speed is about the same, and the time is easy to estimate. The route we took was almost on the edge of the battlefield, and the big teams generally disdained to come here. It's useless to come in small groups, so groups of 200 people are the most common. ”
"What if a big team comes over? Or is there no one coming? ”
"Then let's fight. Fighting a war is not a fairy fortune-telling. I can only make the best inferences based on all the information, and if I am wrong, I can only be wrong. Clever calculations are always evaluated after the fact, and no one can guarantee foolproofness before the war. ”
"Then you were so adamant."
"For the generals themselves are not firm, how to make the people below firm. You have to pretend to be firm, don't go out and talk nonsense. ”
Wang Qing was speechless and silently followed the large army.
When entering the grassland, it is basically out of the control range of the Great Yuan. This is a neutral zone between the two sides.
Gradually, the number of players encountered increased, and there were five teams of more than 200 people on the side of Dayuan encountered along the way.
There are also 3 teams of Daikin players encountered, and even a group of players who are fighting. Both of them were large groups of 500 people, Xue Lei glanced at them, and then ordered to go around.
Along the way, Xue Lei did not have contact with his own team, and when he saw the enemy, he also detoured from afar.
Although the team members had doubts, the victory just now had gradually established Xue Lei's authority, but no one asked.
In the distance, a long river came into view, white waves rolling, and the sound of water was bursting. The river is not too wide, 200 meters is limited, but just look at the churning of the waves, you know that the river is not shallow. A stone bridge 5 meters wide spans the river and is the only way to cross it.
Of course, 200 meters is really not a problem for players who have practiced martial arts. Not to mention those who have learned light skills, they can easily get over. Even if you don't learn light skills, swimming is not a big deal for most players, and even if the river is fast, it is not much more difficult for players who practice martial arts than in the swimming pool.
Xue Lei led the group members through the stone bridge in turn, and then stationed down on the south side of the stone bridge.
After arranging patrols and defenses, Xue Lei explained his strategic intentions to the regiment.
"Everyone knows that the pattern of this battlefield is to capture the flag. Let me first tell you about the combat merit system, many people have killed the enemy just now. Enemy kills in the Soldier stage are 1, 2, and 3 merits, and the Captain rank is 10, 15, and 20. Therefore, it is actually very cost-effective for the team to simply kill the enemy, after all, killing 1,000 enemies will cause 800 self-losses. As far as the capture the flag mode is concerned, the battle flag in the neutral area, regaining a full 5 points of merit, for our team, is equivalent to nearly 2500 feats, which is much more cost-effective than killing the enemy. Of course, the battle flag in the enemy theater is definitely more cost-effective with 15 points of merit for all members, but the risk is also greater. ”
"Our current position is about one-third of the neutral area of Dajin, and the grassland in front of us has a 11.36% chance of refreshing the battle flag according to past statistics, and the grassland behind us has a 23.22% chance of refreshing the battle flag. So our goal now is to hold the current position, ensure that the grassland ahead is refreshed after the battle flag is refreshed as soon as possible, and return safely. If the battle flag is refreshed in the rear, the stone bridge we occupy is one of the two ways that Daikin players must retreat, and our goal is to kill people and capture the flag. Got it? ”
"But the river can't stop the player, is it useful to guard the bridge?" Wang Qing asked suspiciously.
"The battle flag is 5 meters high, and it can't be put into a backpack, and the flag bearer is forced to seal it lightly. What's the use of others crossing the river, just can't cross the battle flag. ”
"Understood."
"Battle flags are refreshed once a day, one in each occupied zone and one in the neutral zone on both sides. The refresh time was twelve o'clock at noon, and there was still half an hour left, so everyone cheered up. In addition to keeping an eye on the teams of both sides, the patrol should pay attention to the refresh of the battle flag at any time. ”
Xu Lei groaned for a while.
"The patrol scope needs to be expanded, and all those who have learned light skills also join the patrol, once the battle flag is found, report the coordinates as soon as possible, and rush over to occupy it first. The patrol range was extended to 4 km. ”
Time passed little by little, and Xue Lei's position was chosen very well. Daikin's main team is mostly gone, with only a few sporadic players who rushed to the front line from the rear after being killed in battle occasionally passing by. The poor man was killed by the patrol in a group, which was an appetizer before the main meal.
At twelve o'clock, the team instantly tensed. The patrol officers kept reporting, there was no in the south, not in the southeast, not in the southwest, and it seemed that there was a 11.36% chance that it would not be easy to touch.
Ten minutes later, Xue Lei withdrew most of his patrols, leaving only a small number to monitor enemy movements.
The withdrawn patrols were scattered back to the north bank of the Great River.
"The whole army is on alert, Yan Ling array. If the enemy is coming, 10-20 minutes, the reconnaissance battalion pays attention to the enemy. ”
The team quickly set up a mountain-shaped battle formation, with the raid battalion on the left, the breakout battalion on the right, and the middle between the middle army and the heavy battalion. The bridgehead was vacated, and the open space at the bridgehead was encircled.
After 10 minutes, there was still no news, and the team was a little agitated. This kind of ineffective waiting is torturous.
Another 5 minutes, and the prairie was still calm.
It's been 20 minutes, not to mention ordinary players, Wang Qing is also anxious. Only Xue Lei still maintained an indifferent expression. Wang Qing couldn't help but secretly complain in his heart, he can really pretend to be X.
Suddenly, the patrolling player exclaimed on the team channel:
"To the northeast, I saw the battle flag. The Shaolin monks should be remnants, less than 200 people. Coming towards us. ”
Xue Lei's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly ordered:
"The north-east reconnaissance battalion made a covert circumambulation and went to its rear to reconnoiter for other enemy troops. Be vigilant in other directions, and report to enemy forces at any time. Other personnel, prepare for war. ”
After everyone listened to the order, the sword was unsheathed, and a murderous aura permeated.
Wang Qing looked left and right, it was different. The rookies who were still trembling slightly before the war just now, although they still looked a little nervous. But at least the hand holding the weapon is stable. Wang Qing had to sigh at the speed at which the battlefield made people grow.
Soon, the chaotic sound of horses' hooves could be heard clearly, and a group of monks formed a circle to protect the battle flag and rushed down the river towards the stone bridge.
Soon both sides were clearly visible.
"Rub, how can there be anyone here. No way, fight. Heavy soldiers, those who have full defense skills cross the bridge first, and those who use swords to impact the team must break through the encirclement, do not fall in love with the battle, and rush to rush. ”
The Shaolin commander knew that it was not good as soon as he saw the formation on the other side of the bridge, but the situation forced them to drop the battle flag and run away. The large regiment of 500 men died in the battle, and if they lost the battle flag again, they would have died.
"Don't fight, rush out. The brothers who died in the battle had been resurrected and came to their aid, and we won in 10 minutes. ”
The big monks' eyes were red one by one, and they rushed onto the stone bridge with a howl.
It's a pity that the stone bridge is only 5 meters wide, and the monk's circle is compressed into thin strips.
When the monks just crossed the bridge, Xue Lei did not move. The swordsmen of the raid camp faced the monks who rushed up alone, although they suffered a little one-on-one, but fortunately, there were more people and fewer people, and they could still support it for the time being.
When about half of the monks had already gotten off the bridge, Xue Lei's eyes flashed.
"Kill!"
