"Stand back, back down!" I shouted to everyone to start retreating, the enemy was already approaching us, and if we didn't retreat, it would be troublesome to get tangled with the enemy.

Seeing that we were about to retreat to the labyrinthine lanes behind, the enemy immediately rushed faster. Although they tried hard to kill us before we could take refuge in the passages, our battle steps were carefully planned, and even a simple retreat was not as simple as it seemed. Halfway through the chase the enemy suddenly fell into the trap, and after losing quite a few men, they continued to chase after them, but unfortunately we were already in the passage.

The enemy army, which lacked a command staff, had no warning of this labyrinth at all, and just chased us all the way into the labyrinth. Several horsemen chased me all the way, and there was a crossroads in front of me, and I did not turn a corner, but rushed straight over, and of course the cavalry also ran after me. But as soon as they arrived at the intersection, two puppets suddenly rushed out, one left and one right. I didn't even bother to look back, I knew what was going on when I heard the scream.

In another place, a group of enemy cavalry took aim at one of our men, and the chase broke out again. On a straight run, our men ran quickly, but a steel bar suddenly protruded from the side and plunged directly into the corresponding hole in the opposite wall. The height of this steel bar was just enough to hang up to the cavalry, but it couldn't touch the horses, so after a while, the horses all rushed over, but the cavalry fell. The cavalrymen got up from the ground and shook their heads to refresh themselves, when a small door suddenly opened on the side of the passage, and several men rushed out and slashed at them. When the troops behind caught up, they saw only bloodstains and a formless cavalry cut down, while their horses stood aside in a daze.

A large number of enemy infantry rushed into the alley and began to pursue our troops, but when we reached the mouth of a passage, our men suddenly fell en masse, and a sledgehammer was thrown over their heads, and almost all the enemies behind were sent flying.

This kind of trick is constantly playing out in the passage. Supposedly, such a battle should not have been in the battles of the regular army, but we let it happen anyway. There are two reasons why this is so smooth, the first is that we have planned for a long time, and we have arranged for a large number of sniper archers and Japanese ninjas to assassinate those enemy commanders before the war begins. The Japanese guilds also bought several cities, and they also had to contribute to the defense of the cities, although they were not happy that I commanded this battle, but the Japanese still had to send a large number of ninjas to help carry out the assassination for their own interests. As a direct consequence of this plan, the Indonesian troops rushed into the labyrinth without middle and lower commanders, and the soldiers only knew how to charge and did not think about anything else. As a result, our plan was successfully implemented. Another reason for my success this time was that I entered the Demon Realm and killed the other party's commander-in-chief.

Originally, this was not something we had planned, but it was just a coincidence. Because there was no commander-in-chief, the enemy ground had no tactics at all.

The enemies in the passage kept advancing, but as the distance grew, their numbers became smaller and smaller. Tens of thousands of enemies suddenly appeared from hundreds of small alleys at the same time.

They entered a street-like place. These people immediately became excited, and they thought that they had finally broken through the labyrinth array. At this time, I appeared on the street with a few players who were running very fast. Then I pretended to be panicked and shouted, "Ah! Oh no, the enemy is in! As soon as I finished shouting, I turned around and ran. Almost all of the players around me are cavalry types, which have been selected for a long time. Our men fled with unimaginable speed, and the enemy behind them became even more excited, and they shouted and chased after us.

The street is very long, and it is sloping, and the slope is not small. The enemy did not care about this, and when they saw the dawn of victory, they howled excitedly and rushed forward, but unfortunately, this was not their path to victory, but our super trap.

The enemy came to a sudden halt after the chase, because they found that we were all running. It seemed to be a dead end, with a wall blocking the way, and there was no passage on either side, it was completely blocked. "Hahahaha! You're running! Hurt by your own labyrinth, right? ”

The Indonesian district guards did not show their smugness and laughed at us with impunity.

We were all pretending to be panicked about being chased into a dead end, and the enemy was laughing as they approached us, but when they were less than ten meters away from us, we suddenly regained our composure. "Haha! Goodbye guys! I smiled and waved at them, and flashed with the players into a passage that popped up on the side. Once we entered, the passage disappeared again as abruptly as it had appeared.

Before the enemy could figure out what was going on, there was a sudden click, and the wall that had been blocking our escape suddenly fell. All the enemies were dumbfounded, and behind the wall was a huge roller like a roller of a road roller, a cylindrical drum made of steel, and the outside was full of dense steel nails. The drum is completely solid, almost 8,000 tons, and with those steel ingots, the destructive power is amazing.

Now the enemy knew why the passage was tilted, and they knew how stupid it was to chase after them, but it was too late. Two puppets opened the retainers on both sides at the same time, and then another 100 puppets pushed behind the roller at the same time. The huge drum can't stop moving at first, because it's downhill, and the drum rolls faster and faster. The enemies below had already begun to flee, and this time they were more than twice as fast as they had been chasing us, and they were lightning fast in the way they came, but it still didn't seem to be enough.

The weight of the drum of 8,000 tons shook the mountains and shook the mountains, and all but the enemies who were being chased were wondering what was so moving, but they would soon know what it was.

The labyrinth suddenly fell underground, and the streets of the city became a large straight passage. The enemies were still wondering about the labyrinth that had suddenly been closed, but when they were pulled back to their minds by the loud noise, they saw a large group of companions rushing towards them. When they saw how energetic their companions were running, they looked behind them, and they joined the band.

There was a scene of 10,000 people running wild on the streets of Sanmarinda, and the slowest of these people had probably broken the world record, but unfortunately the big guy in the back was even faster than them.

With a weight of 8,000 tons, Cheng Ke can be crushed into a discus, and these soldiers have nothing to think about except running.

The cavalry still has mounts. Mages and warriors are the unluckiest. The mages were the slowest, and the steel rollers swept through the mage ranks in a rampage, leaving a patch of red on the ground.

The second-to-last heavy infantry quickly caught up, and the Super Steamroller swept through the entire ranks, leaving a large number of red ground marks and flakes of metal on the ground, which were originally armor and weapons, but now all of them were cake. The cavalry were fast, but they were still a little slower than the rollers, and we heard only the sound of pinching flies, and the cavalry turned into red shards along with their horses.

The roller rushed all the way to the city wall, then bounced up and flew out of the wall before stopping. All that was left in the city was a bloody ground in a straight line. There was a bang. The labyrinth rose again, but the enemy did not dare to rush anymore. Who can guarantee that there is only one roller?

After this super terrifying smasher plan, the remaining strength of the enemy is less than three million, and including the Indonesian players, it is about four million. In other words, there are now nearly twice as many enemies as we are. It still seems that there are still many enemies, but due to the disparity in firepower between the two sides, the disparity is too great. If the number is less than three times ours, the total strength of the enemy is already inferior to ours.

"It's time to fight back." I gestured to the rear. One player immediately lit a small box next to it. Only three bangs were heard, and the red, white and blue signal flare flew into the sky.

Boom, boom, boom. The guns in the fleet began to sound constantly, and we were going to fight back.

Formations of pikes flew over our heads with bundles of bombs, and a flash of fire flashed from the enemy's positions.

"The counterattack begins!"

"Kill!"

Our counterattack was so sudden, the enemy had just been frightened by the super steamroller, and now we suddenly counterattacked and completely confused them. As long as there are deserters on the battlefield, there will be people who will continue to join the deserters, and eventually it will evolve into a big rout, which is why the army destroys the deserters very much. Now the enemy is frightened, and the middle and junior officers have died en masse, and there is no one to urge these soldiers to fight. At first, he rushed into the city with his habitual thinking, but after seeing the terrible situation, some people began to flee, and some of the less courageous immediately followed. As the number of fleeing people continued to increase, the enemy who did not know the situation behind him became even more confused.

The heavy shelling and the aggressiveness of the deserters, coupled with our massive counterattack, made the enemy completely lose his judgment. A total collapse finally occurred, and the enemies dropped their weapons and began to flee backwards. Since Zero's NPC system was upgraded to humanize, the fear of death has also appeared in the NPC's consciousness, and they have begun to run frantically in order to survive, and those Indonesian players know what is going on, but they can't stop it. Although these NPCs attack the city with them, they are only cooperative and have no superior-subordinate relationship, and the player cannot command the area guards.

The collapse of the NPCs has made the Indonesian players very depressed, and our side is just as depressed. The original plan was to completely annihilate the enemy army, but now that the enemy is good, the enemy will not fight us at all, and will run all the way out of the battle area and then open the space door and run away. Although we chased the enemy's tail and slashed and blew it all the way, in the end, almost two million district guards returned to the Demon Realm. The failure of these guards this time is only because of a problem with their chain of command, not their own strength, so we can't stop them from escaping. Fortunately, only two million ran away, which should not cause too strict consequences.

Although the NPCs are all gone, the Indonesian players did not retreat, we stopped the pursuit after chasing to the entrance of the Demon Realm, and we can't get out of that place, we don't want to bury those two million enemies. After giving up the plan to enter the demon world, we turned the team and began to hunt down those Indonesian players, the Chinese have a saying that good men do not eat immediate losses, but Indonesians do not seem to believe this truth, and they have to fight to the death with us after so many unfavorable conditions appear at the same time. These millions of players are simply not enough to watch, and we almost beat these people to death. Surrounded by a large group of monsters, American players kept raising their guns and shooting, as if they were slaughtering. Those who were not interested in this left early to go back to the city, and the pre-war agreement was that after the battle, everyone would work together to repair the city and bear the cost of repairs. After all, this battle is fought for everyone.

This guy played well and our tactics were very successful. When the enemy left the Demon Realm, there were 12 million regular troops in total, not including Warcraft and players, and when they returned, there were only 2 million regular troops left, and all Warcraft and players were dead. It can be said that the enemy has completely damaged his vitality this time.

Our losses were negligible relative to the enemy, and we killed more than 20,000 players from start to finish, which is about a tenth of the total strength. In terms of Warcraft and City Watch, almost all of them are the losses of our guilds. However, wards can be revived automatically. This can't be considered a loss, and the various participating guilds will have to pay to compensate for our losses in the future, after all, personnel can't participate in the war in vain.

Although the loss of personnel this time is not large, the material loss is terrible. Our guild has dropped a city in the sky. This loss those guilds promised to bear together. In addition, in this battle, our guild threw off cannonballs and bombs worth 30 million crystal coins, which will also be reimbursed. Many warships even leveled the rifling line of their guns. Even the barrel has to follow the roots.

In addition to our guilds, guilds from other places have also paid a lot of material costs. But everyone can afford this. The biggest headache for everyone is Samarinda, and the city is no longer as simple as repairing. More than 80% of the city was destroyed during the fighting, and repairing it is actually basically equivalent to rebuilding. There are no things in the city that can be used at all, and they all have to be changed, and everyone gathered for a short meeting after the battle, thinking that the responsibilities had been assigned before the war, and this meeting was just a simple clarification of the division of labor, and it was over in a few minutes. After everyone was assigned the task, they started to work, and I met Isengar first, and then there should be a third battle, we don't know the specific situation, so we have to go to Vina to ask for clarification and prepare early.

It was early in the morning when I arrived at Isengard, but Vina didn't need to sleep anyway, so she didn't have to worry about disturbing her. Vena didn't seem surprised at all to see me walk into her room.

"It's over?" She asked blandly.

"Don't you wonder why I came back so soon?"

"What's so strange?" Vina seemed to take this for granted.

"The enemy is several times larger than us, isn't it strange that I came back so soon?"

"I might be surprised if your fleet didn't have so many cannons, but I don't think it's strange at all. You must have been bullying people for not having artillery from beginning to end, and the regional guards in Indonesia were probably bombed by you and suffered heavy losses, so there was almost no one left when they stormed the city. After that, you must have fought back violently, and as a result, the enemy was completely annihilated. Am I right? ”

"I have to admire your reasoning skills, but it's a pity that you guessed part wrong."

"Huh? I was wrong? "This time Vena is finally starting to be curious." What's wrong? ”

"It's all pretty much the same, but there's something different at the end. Indonesia's regional guards were not wiped out. They suddenly collapsed when we launched a counterattack, and then we chased them all the way to the entrance of the Demon Realm, and these guys still had more than two million returned to the Demon Realm, because we were afraid that we would not be able to get in and out, so we did not chase them in, and the other party also closed the entrance to the Demon Realm. ”

"Escaped? What a surprise! What are their commanders doing? What about the Warlords?

How could they suddenly flee? ”

"This is an accident. I was sucked into the Demon Realm to protect other players, and as a result, I killed their commanders and vanguard generals in the Demon Realm. At the beginning of the whole operation, the opposing side already had no supreme commander. As for the Warlords and the Subordinate Commanders, they were all assassinated by us, and the soldiers on the other side were basically fighting spontaneously, with no one to direct them at all. ”

"No wonder!" Vina nodded, "It would be easy to explain if there were no command staff." ”

"Vena, we've let go of two million enemies this time, will there be a problem in the battle after that?"

Vena thought for a moment and said, "I'm afraid the battle will be more difficult in the future, but the problem shouldn't be too strict." ”

"Why?"

"I've told you before that the district guards have been defended three times in total, the first chance they didn't have Gao, and this attack is actually the second time. According to the regulations, the second time the number of troops was twice as large as the first. The number of enemies you have encountered this time is 12 million, which means that the enemies who attacked for the first time should be about 6 million. The number of troops sent for the third time should be the sum of the first two troops, which means that the maximum number of troops sent for the third time is 18 million. ”

"I'm dizzy! Eighteen million and you still say it's okay? ”

"Listen to me!" Vina explained: "This rule limits the proportion of the first and second contributions to the total number of troops, and if you only occupy one city in Indonesia, the three expeditions will of course be more in order than the previous one. But you occupy the whole territory, and the number of troops you send should be the total strength of the regional guards of the whole country. In other words, these 18 million regional guards should be the entire number of Indonesian guards. District Wards can be refilled automatically, just like City Watch, but the speed of this replenishment is not as fast as it dies, it takes time. The total strength of Indonesia's regional guards is 18 million, and 12 million were sent out in this battle, which means that there are still 6 million troops in the Demon Realm. If you let two million run back, then the enemy becomes eight million. Counting the additional troops during this time, it would be good if they could scrape together nine million for the next attack. In this battle, the enemy sent 12 million troops, and as a result, you were asked to kill 10 million and run away 2 million, so next time you only need to deal with less than 9 million troops, will you still be unable to stop it? ”

"Of course I can't stop it! The main success this time was to destroy the opponent's chain of command, and the opponent will not be so easily fooled next time. And we have already shown many tactics in front of the enemy, and next time the enemy should not be so easy to fool. In addition, our Windmill City has helped a lot in this battle, but Windmill City has crashed, and we can't get out of the second one in the next battle, how can we defend it? ”

"Looks like you have a lot of problems to solve!"

"That's why I have such a headache!" I leaned back on the chaise longue and looked at the ceiling and said, "The next attack will only have a 24-hour interval, and I'm afraid we won't have time to restore the city's functions." In the next battle, don't say that the strategy will fail, there is not even a city wall, we really don't know how to defend it! ”

Vena suddenly came over and leaned over to me and said, "Aren't you usually bad?" How did it suddenly get better this time? ”

"Huh?" Vina's sudden change of tone made me a little confused. "What do you mean?"

"Can't even think of this?" Vina said, "I'll give you a hint!" The first hint, what does the guarding power of a country have to do with it? Second, how does the utilitarian theory you often use deal with this kind of thing? ”

"Utilitarian theory?" I thought about it for a moment, and it dawned on me. "That's right! How could I not have thought of it! What a damn one! Haha, Vina, you're so smart! ”

After saying goodbye to Vina, I rushed back to Indonesia, where the Roses were directing the reconstruction work in Samarinda. Seeing my excitement, Rose and Hawk knew that I must have been resolved, and together they gathered around me and asked me how I was going to deal with the third NPC revenge.

I took them out of Samarinda first, there were too many people there, and I didn't let outsiders know about this plan. When you get to Garland City, it's easier to find a secret place in our own city.

In a small conference room, I said to them, "The way to do it is ......."
