Chapter 335, the sand table situation
Regarding the battle of Crassus's strong attack on Caesar's new position and Caesar's counterattack on Crassus's old position, judging from the electronic map, it is difficult to judge the real winner. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Position 2 in the lower right corner of the map is a gray unclaimed area, while Positions 1 and 3 are still covered in bright blue, indicating that they are still under the de facto control of the Crassus faction; As for the three outposts, Sentry Forts No. 1 and No. 2 also belong to Crassus, and the dazzling red color of Sentry Fort No. 3 looks both striking and abrupt like flowers in the ocean.
In the real beta map, after this chaotic battle, the situation is much more complicated.
First of all, Caesar's new Position 2 was completely abandoned - although it was relatively intact compared to Position 1 in terms of construction facilities, due to the loss of the command post and the inability to restart, the automatic defenses and mechanical sentinels inside had become a pile of scrap metal, which could no longer have any effect on the outcome of the game. Both Caesar and Crassus simply relinquished de facto control of the region, but for the entire battle situation, such a large area of the battle map was reduced to a wasteland, and its influence was not insignificant.
The second is the bombing of the armory at Position 3, that is, the old position of Crassus, although on the entire map, it is only a quick and quick miniature war, and the casualties and overall damage caused are not serious, but it is extremely critical for the significance of the future victory and defeat between Crassus and Caesar.
After this battle, it can be said that the belief in victory on the part of the Crassus side has been destroyed to the point that there is not much left. Most of the team members led by Arthur are mercenary members who have followed him since the second closed beta, and they have a long-term employment relationship with Black Sheep. Therefore, when the group of people who had gone to storm Caesar's position and returned in vain returned to their old positions, when they looked at the armory that had been blown into a pile of scorched earth and the warehouse of living materials that had damaged the pond fish, the first thought that came to their hearts was: "How will we survive the next ten days or so?" ”
Heavy weapons are gone, ammunition reserves are gone, tent tarps are gone, and even the only canned rations that are expected each day are left...... This has made Crassus's mercenary players more frustrated than ever, and some of them might have been planning to turn in their cards and quit if they hadn't been used to obeying Arthur's orders.
While the average player may still be depressed that there will be no cans for dinner today, Arthur and his command core are anxious about something else - the figure of the woman in the "Koriopatra" uniform that appeared on camera before the armory was blown up.
"I have already explained to you, Mr. Arthur, that this is absolutely not the work of my men, but the discord used by Caesar's side against our alliance." In the command post where the old position of Crassus was still relatively intact, Liu Yuying was helplessly explaining to the silent Arthur, "There is no possibility that our side needs to destroy the unity within the alliance in terms of position, which shows that they used some means to obtain our uniforms and then destroyed the position, and it has also been recorded in the relevant intelligence that it is not the first time that Caesar's side has done this...... But why do you start to doubt us again at such a critical time? ”
“…… But as you said before, there are two members of your camp who are currently missing, and you can't figure out where they went, right? Arthur raised a pair of dim eyes, staring at Liu Yuying with a hollow and straight look, "In other words, you can't guarantee that the possibility of 'your subordinates have secretly defected and cooperated and joined Caesar's camp' is zero, is it?" ”
"This kind of thing can't be judged like that, after all, it's not good for them to do it at all......" "Good thing? Hehe, so you were ordered to support me, and how much benefit did the bosses promise? Without waiting for Liu Yuying to speak again, Arthur stood up and interrupted her in a slightly tired hoarse voice, "Open the skylight and speak brightly, Miss Liu, I know your duty very well, and your duty is to make the process of this game not too one-sided, so that Caesar's side will win in advance so that the big players above will win too easily or lose too ugly, am I right?" ”
“…… This is not a question that we should be discussing at this level, sir. Liu Yuying pursed her lips, still calmly replied with her head held high, "Obedience is our only mission. ”
"Hehe, that's right, and we who are used as chess pieces, being played until the last moment, is our only fate." Arthur laughed hoarsely, then looked up and said to Liu Yuying, "Let's put it this way, I'm tired, I'm too lazy to play a wine game with the bosses and their cute Barbie guys." Starting today, I ask you to hand over the command and equipment ownership of all the combatants of the 'Cleopatra', and all of them will be brought into my 'Crassus' camp under my unified command! ”
"You are making an unreasonable request, I refuse ......" Liu Yuying was also a little angry, but before she could speak, the contact message from the system dial surprised her again: "Beep-your exclusive base has been destroyed, please prepare quickly!" Repeat......"
"What?" Liu Yuying looked at the flashing red letters on the dial of the system, and almost couldn't believe her eyes - "exclusive base" refers to the special secret base of "Koriopatra", which will not be displayed on the electronic map or any closed beta indication information, and now it has been suddenly broken, how did Caesar find it?
