In the early morning, after the first wave of beasts outside the city was no longer so raging, Yu Yi received an order to withdraw to the city. After the pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info opened the attribute page of his troops, after calculating some people, he confirmed that no one was missing, and then he breathed a long sigh of relief.
"Whew, eighty people, not one less, great."
Since he took over the Centurion armband, there has been such an extra item in the attribute bar, and he usually doesn't pay too much attention to it. However, based on the impression of the page of the last time he looked at the attributes of this unit, he could still see that last night's battle had made his troops grow a lot. There seemed to be more than 30 people in the original militia before, but now there are only 6 people left, and the others seem to have advanced.
"Lance, get something to eat." At this time, Siron came up with hot porridge and bread in his hand, and said to the deed owner, who was sitting on the side of the road resting. During the special period, even if they won a great victory, they could not sleep in a warm military tent, and almost all the soldiers sat on the ground near the city gate. Of course, the logistics are already being carried out as much as possible, otherwise all they can drink in their mouths at this time is the refreshing morning breeze.
After taking the food, Yu Yi unceremoniously poured himself hot porridge, put his hand on his bent left knee casually and asked, "Is this just the beginning?" ”
"If that's all the beast tide, then the ruler of Wildfire City won't make such a fuss. Of course, it's not just their problem. The eagle-eyed youth replied, sat down beside the deed owner and asked, "What?" The sheer number of Warcraft makes you feel intimidated? ”
Yu Yi turned his head to look at the street, and hastily chewed the bread that he stuffed into his mouth: "I'm not a great person, is there anything wrong with feeling scared?" ”
"Afraid? What you're afraid of, I can probably guess. Sylon said, looking at the eighty soldiers who were recuperating in front of him, "But the burden of this 'fear' is not something you can afford now, not even in the future. With all due respect, we must overcome this 'fear' on the big road we want to take. ”
Yu Yi naturally understood what Xi Ang meant, but now that he could no longer treat this world as a game, he really couldn't let him be indifferent to the life and death of his dozens of soldiers. "Come with me for a walk." He stood up and said.
But speaking of which, where can we distract ourselves now? Not to mention that there are resting regular troops, explorers and expeditionary forces sitting here everywhere, with weapons, utensils, etc., every half hour, two teams have to go out of the city to clean up the demonic beasts near the city gate, and everyone must be on standby at all times. So the best place to go is probably the tall castle tower.
Because of his status as a centurion, it was not difficult to go up to the castle tower. Above the tower, the archers took turns shooting at the city. As long as they want to, they can shoot arrows all day without worrying about not finding their target.
As long as you stand on the edge of the castle tower and look out of the city, the scene is absolutely unforgettable. Densely packed with demonic beasts, even if you look at the limit of your field of vision, you can't see the end of these beasts. They tirelessly moved closer to Wildfire City, and even the constant killing of them didn't hold them back. It was now dark, otherwise the red eyes would be clearly visible.
With such a huge number of Warcraft, even those players have been killed, and Yu Yi himself is also a player, so he naturally knows. No matter how high the level, how strong the ability, and how powerful the nurse is, under the highly realistic setting of this game, no matter who you are, you will have your own physiological limits just like in reality. Everybody is different.
Therefore, Yu Yi was worried, although in last night's battle, they had almost no casualties in defending the city, but in the face of these magical beasts that seemed to never be killed, sooner or later they would be consumed to their limit. The corpses of the demonic beasts on the edge of the city have piled up into a small mountain, and even those carnivorous demonic beasts are too busy to eat them all.
And this is only the first wave of the beast tide, Yu Yi began to understand the horror of the beast tide. And, since this is the scene here, what about the villages outside of Wildfire City......
He shook his head to stop his thoughts, and then changed the topic and asked, "Syl, why haven't we seen even half of the 'Divine Grace' after thousands of us killed the demonic beasts for a whole night?" ”
"These are angry monsters, they have been abandoned by the gods, and the chance of being graced by the gods is almost zero." Hilon replied lightly.
The other party's words made Yu Yi sneer, and his eyes swept under the city without focus: "God? If there are gods in this world, then ask them to show up and help those of us in need! ”
"Do you really think so? Maybe you'll regret it then. ”
But Sylon suddenly popped out such a sentence. Yu Yi was about to ask, but he only heard the military horn sound, it should be the rotation time.
"It's our turn."
He was about to walk down the tower to assemble the team and prepare to leave the city.
But when he heard the herald shouting the order, the content was not the same as he expected: "The first, second, third, and fourth infantry brigades are assembled, and they will rush to the four major granaries in the southeast of the city to support!" ”
As the order was given, the captains of each brigade urged their own troops.
Yu Yi and Xi Ang also walked down the city tower quickly, and it was obvious that something had happened in the city.
"What's going on?" While walking briskly back to the area where the First Flame was, Yu Yi asked.
"I don't know, but the sudden transfer of nearly half of the troops to support must be a big problem in the granary." The expression on Syl'ang's face was not very good-looking, and it could even be said to be a little dignified.
When they returned to the resting place, except for the wounded who remained, all of the soldiers of the First Flame had already lined up and waited for Yu Yi's order in place. And Yu Yi heard the order of Klose, the captain of the second brigade, and rushed towards the destination with his troops.
"Are these four granaries important?" Yu Yi asked, he still knew very little about the situation in Wildfire City.
"If I'm not mistaken, these four granaries should be the main food reserves in the southeast." The archer's eagle eyes flickered, "Generally speaking, in the event of a war or some special emergency, such as now, most of the grain in the city will be hoarded in the granary for unified management. Everyone, both military and civilian, is given daily rations. ”
Yu Yi couldn't help but say, "Is it necessary to be so troublesome?" ”
"As it is now, Wildfire City's food source has been cut off by the Warcraft horde. With limited food in the city, the distribution power naturally has to be in the hands of the ruling class! However, as long as the lord is not a donkey, he will start stockpiling food before the beast tide hits. So, the city's food reserves should be enough for us to survive the beast tide, but ......"
"But now that the granary is in trouble, that is, Wildfire City may face food shortages?" Yu Yi was not stupid, so he naturally heard the seriousness of the matter.
Arrow Eagle nodded: "I hope the loss is not too serious." ”
Halfway through the journey, the four brigades split up and went to a granary. Fortunately, during the attack of the beast tide, the road was empty enough, and there were no half-human figures. In other words, the streets are congested in normal times, and the soldiers have no need to hurry, because it must be too late.
But even so, when Yu Yi's second brigade arrived at the granary on Yingling Road, it was actually a step too late. They didn't even need to ask about the situation, they could already see the mess inside the warehouse through the glass windows that had been smashed by the giant insects.
By this time, there was no need for orders, and the soldiers understood what they had to do. Everyone took out their blades one after another, and used all their strength to slash and kill those flying insects and demonic beasts that were eating wildly.
"It's a famine locust, it's too late."
Yu Yi heard Si'er Ang sigh like this.
