Chapter 865: Imaginary Enemy (1)
"Boom!"
The thunder in the sky came, and all the soldiers raised their heads to see the shattered fires flying all over the sky and the thunder and lightning that still shone through the countless wind and snow, as if tearing through the entire heavenly dome, constantly winding and swaying above their heads.
And beside them, the aliens on their distant battlefields, all fell to their knees, reminding the enemy, who was as great as a giant elephant, like a defeated dog that had seen a tiger, prostrate on the ground, and buried its head deep in the ground.
The small aliens around them let out a burst of terrified screams, rolling to the ground and shivering; Some of the aliens who attacked from the flanks had just jumped up from the other side of the ice crack, and they screamed in mid-air, lost their strength, and fell like dumplings with those flying troops in the sky, falling into the ice crack.
Heavenly punishment is coming!
An Xiaoyu floated in mid-air, the chaotic magnetic field of the extreme north did not seem to have any effect on her, she was just suspended steadily above the heads of all living beings, dressed in white and hunting in the wind, under the entire curtain torn by thunder, like a god who had descended.
"Click!"
The thunder finally fell, and it landed not far away.
A purple thunderbolt the size of a bucket fell from the sky, ignoring the barren laws and energy here, piercing through the wind and snow that covered everything, lighting up the entire sky and night, leaving an incomparable sparkle in the lives of all living beings.
"Ahh A scream came with the wind, and the thunder dissipated.
An Xiaoyu snorted coldly: "Self-inflicted." ”
Bei Gun reacted at this time, looked at An Xiaoyu in the sky, and finally understood what the reinforcements Hei was talking about, and why Hei wanted to let himself resist this time here. It turned out that all this was to wait for An Xiaoyu's arrival, the predicament of the extreme north, and also to wait for such a hero.
Yes, heroes!
Just when An Xiaoyu suddenly appeared in the sky and smashed the huge fireball that was about to fall above their heads from the sky, the figure standing in the wind and snow, fire, and thunder and lightning had already become an eternal hero in the hearts of all the Far North soldiers present.
"Fight back! Counterattack! Counterattack! ”
Beigun grabbed the communicator and shouted loudly, hoarsely, and even heartbreakingly.
The silence was so quiet that only the sound of the wind in the far north suddenly spread the sound to everyone's ears. The sound of the North Gun woke up all the people with dementia and brought back life and hope to all, so one shouted, two shouted, and thousands of people stood up and rushed out of the trenches.
Fire erupted from the muzzle of the gun, and the bullets were directed at their fateful foe. Two million soldiers from the far north stood up on this snowy front that was several kilometers long, let out an earth-shattering shout, and rushed towards the aliens who were kneeling on the ground with guns and knives.
The alien race that was shocked by the heavenly punishment also woke up at this time after being slaughtered by the first batch of people, shouted, and rushed towards the imperial soldiers. The two sides were in a scuffle for a while, and the entire Far North was plunged into fighting and gunsmoke.
But it is clear that the imposing soldiers of the Empire, with the courage of the rest of their lives, have unleashed all their anger on the enemy. And the alien race who sacrificed a supreme master but did not make meritorious contributions has lost his courage and no longer has the ability to fight with the imperial forces.
An Xiaoyu fell on Beigun's side, looking at the generals around him who had breathed a sigh of relief, and the questions that had been in his heart for a long time were finally answered. Will the Northern Gun pose a threat to the security of the Empire? An Xiaoyu now thinks that it is probably impossible.
"Thank you for coming."
Although they have never met, just like An Xiaoyu recognized Bei Gun at a glance, Bei Gun also recognized An Xiaoyu at a glance. Looking at An Xiaoyu, Beigun said to An Xiaoyu sincerely.
An Xiaoyu shook his head and said, "I am also an imperial soldier, so I don't need to say such things." ”
Beigun laughed twice and asked again, "What happened to the edge of the far north?" ”
"After you are gone, put an end to the gathering of troops to attack the temporary station, and in the end all the people in the temporary station are covered in black ice. About this, you have a mind about Hei, and you will explain it to him yourself when the time comes. As for the far north periphery, there is still a big conspiracy of the alien race over there, and I have already notified the imperial capital to deal with it. ”
"That's good." Beigun got the news from the outside, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
In the past 20 days, they have been fighting in the depths of the extreme north, and after the polar night fell, all communication and communication with the outside world were cut off, and even the returning convoy had no useful news, which really made the north gun feel bottomless.
"By the way, that thunderbolt ...... just now," Bei Gun asked.
Hearing Bei Lance's question, the surrounding generals also looked over, very interested in the thunderbolt that could make all the aliens kneel to the ground just now. But unfortunately, reality is destined to disappoint them, and it is simply not a force that humans can control.
"Among the alien races, the master who can be comparable to the Taishi has used his strength in the extreme north, breaking the control of the Heavenly Dao and the balance of the chaos in the extreme north, so that the already somewhat tilted balance will begin to completely shift, and the Heavenly Dao will naturally send down heavenly punishment and chop the other party to death."
"If it weren't for you, I'm afraid we'd really be wiped out this time! That would lead to the complete paralysis of the entire northern part of the Empire, and the alien and treasonous groups would occupy the area, fight against the Empire, and even lead to the division of the Empire! ”
It's not that the Northern Gun is arrogant, but because of the development of mecha and technology, the current standing army of the entire empire is far inferior to the combat reserve of a thousand years ago. The number of teams has been reduced, filled with more technological power, and more and more elitist, which is the trend of human armies/teams.
But it is precisely because of this that in the event of a sudden large-scale event, such as now, it is difficult to coordinate and deploy a large number of troops within the empire.
All the teams in the empire are arranged, don't look at the two million people in the extreme north plus two million Lao Shan ginseng mecha army, but the standing army of the four sides is still the largest standing army reserve of the empire after all, as for the regular army of the imperial capital and each province, it generally does not exceed 700,000.
You must know that the number of standing armies is linked to productivity, and the level that the productivity of the empire can support is about 100 million people corresponding to 800,000 standing reserves. If it goes any further, even the entire empire will be in chaos.
Therefore, when the communication between the imperial capital and the local area is chaotic, once the two million Far North troops are wiped out here, the entire Far North will become the territory of the alien race, and the entire north will lose the deterrence of the empire from Beiyun to at least ten provinces, and fall into the hands of the end or origin.
An Xiaoyu said: "I'm afraid that the alien race is ready for this, and would rather sacrifice a supreme master than occupy the entire northern part of the empire." This also proves that the plan of the alien race this time will not only be for the northern part of the empire, but must have other deeper meanings. ”
Beigun also frowned: "Actually, after coming here, I have always had a question. ”
"What's the doubt?" Ann whispered unclear.
The surrounding generals all looked at An Xiaoyu, and she was a little embarrassed: "I'm not an immortal, what do you think I'm doing?" Could it be that the problem is obvious? ”
Bei Gun smiled: "Of course, it is obvious, it seems that you still lack some strategic thinking, and you have not been on such a big battlefield, it is easy to be attracted by the details on the battlefield and forget some common sense things, which is a mistake made by a newly debuted general." ”
"So what's the problem?" An Xiaoyu humbly asked for advice.
At this time, Gou Xiang stood up instead of Beigun and said: "You haven't brought so many soldiers, and you haven't participated in a large-scale war, so it's normal to not be able to see it." But for those of us who have been in the barracks for half of our lives and dealing with military strategy, it is obvious. ”
"First of all, if the purpose of the alien race is to attack my Far North garrison, to occupy the entire Far North, and to do things on the border, then what will be their first target? It will definitely be the far north of the empire, so the troops will be concentrated in the territory of the empire when teleporting. ”
"According to the history of the war between the empire and the alien race, as well as the military strategy of the imperial capital, the data analyzed by sociologists with the central super big computer are distributed to the senior generals of all troops at any time, and according to our current observation, the combat effectiveness of the alien race is still in a basically equal state with the empire."
"In fact, this is also the state that has been in place since the advent of mecha technology, the empire and the alien race have entered a period of equilibrium, and a major war is needed to break this balance. But no matter what the reason is or what the result is, the forces that can be mobilized on the alien side should be similar to ours. ”
"In this way, they will never use more troops than a single front can withstand to attack any frontier. First, this will lead to a waste of troops, secondly, it may cause defensive gaps in some places, and finally, if there is an unexpected defeat and return, the cost will far exceed the risk that the battle should have. ”
"But you see now, our two million people are here, and the two million people of Lao Shan Ginseng are still fighting against those rogues in the far north. This force is actually basically balanced, and it also makes the battlefield in the far north begin to saturate, because the terrain, weather, and materials here all determine the scale of the battle. ”
"Maybe you will feel that it is normal to say that the combat effectiveness of the two sides is basically balanced, which is in line with the strategic deployment I mentioned above. But it is precisely because of this that we feel that this battle is definitely still problematic, at least the deployment of the alien race should not be like this. ”
"Because what we are facing now is basically the combat power that is teleported to the territory of the alien race, and most of the ones that are teleported to the interior of the empire were cut off by Mr. Black first, and the remaining rogues are enough to pull the old mountain ginseng, so what are the spilled forces that were cut off and should have appeared in the empire?"
Hearing Gou Xiang's words, An Xiaoyu also fell into deep thought.
Yes, the alien race has invested too much in the far north, where there is not much oil and water, and the alien race that is teleported here alone can already fight on a par with the far north army, what are the alien races that have been blocked back by the black for appearing?
Even if they used their absolute superiority to occupy the Far North, it would be impossible to gain more of the Far North. It's not a place for survival, it's not going to produce any resources, it's even a forbidden area for life. The territory outside the far north is still entrenched in the same eyeing of the origin and end.
And the brain on the far north edge, is there only one? If there are many, what is their purpose? What kind of benefits do the aliens want from this part of the Far North? Wait a minute...... Why do we think that?
An Xiaoyu's eyes suddenly lit up and said, "We seem to have made everything wrong." ”
North Lance asked, "What went wrong?" ”
"This division commander also said just now that the alien races that should have appeared in the empire should be the ones that were cut off by the black. So can we understand that those who have not appeared are the ones who should have been fought against us on the far north periphery? ”
"Huh?" Beigun also asked, "What do you say?" ”
An Xiaoyu said: "Like you said, I have not led a soldier, and I may ignore a lot of routine issues. But none of you are masters of cultivation, so naturally you will ignore a lot of cultivation issues. Let's just say that the idiot who was just punished by heaven to death, its appearance is not normal at all! ”
"Why?" Gou Xiang was puzzled.
"Those who can use such a huge force in the extreme north are undoubtedly masters whose realm is equivalent to the Taishi, and such masters rarely appear even in the Great War of Ten Thousand Races, let alone a campaign against the extreme north? Do you really think that this team on the other side was originally there to attack us? ”
"Like...... Makes sense! The generals glanced at each other and nodded.
Beishu asked, "You mean, the team on their side probably has other purposes, but because the black cut off the teleportation within the empire, it turned to deal with the empire?" And if their plan goes well, this team should already be on their way to the rest of the competition, right? ”
An Xiaoyu nodded: "That's what it means, this team is obviously not against the imperial army, because from the strategic history of the alien race, there is absolutely no battle with the border garrison, and the practice of the Taishi directly pressing the formation, so it will inevitably be sniped by the empire, which is meaningless at all." ”
"Why doesn't it make sense?" A general who was not a practitioner asked a question common to most of them.
An Xiaoyu explained: "Whether it is an alien race or a human race, it makes no sense to reach the battlefield in the hands of the Taishi's masters, because they are the group that is most strictly regulated by the Heavenly Dao. Perhaps the alien masters at the grandmaster level can still go into battle to kill the enemy, but once the Taishi causes a large number of deaths, he will definitely be punished by the Heavenly Dao. As you can see, even in the far north, even if no one has died because of this, as long as the balance is broken, the heavenly punishment is above the head. ”
These generals shuddered when they thought of the thunder just now.
Bei Lance nodded thoughtfully: "If that's the case, it really doesn't make sense." Then their goal ......"
"It's the Tianchi clan!" An Xiaoyu boldly guessed: "There are two purposes for them to attack the Far North, the master is for the confrontation of the civil war, the teleportation within the empire was originally to deal with us, and the one here is to deal with the Tianchi clan." ”
"I see!" Beigun's face suddenly turned ugly.
The Tianchi clan has always occupied the other side of the far north, they are proud, pure, and born, this is a large clan that has never cared about the situation outside, it is one of the few neutral races, and it is the largest of them, so it makes sense.
The extreme northern edge of the alien territory has always been the territory of the Tianchi clan, and without the permission of the Tianchi clan, neither the alien race nor the human race, or even the four royal clans can enter it, let alone pass through it into the extreme north.
Therefore, the empire never had to worry about aliens secretly detouring through the empire from the far north and entering the empire's territory. After all, the Far North is the only territory where the empire cannot be stationed at any time, but must border foreign territories.
If the main battle faction of the alien race attacks the Tianchi clan and defeats it, the most obvious thing is that there are two benefits.
One is obvious, it can cooperate with those teams that should have entered the territory of the empire, defeat the Far North garrison, occupy the Far North, or even North Cloud. Then whether they want to build a brain in a sinkhole or create a human directly in the far north, they have no worries.
The second has a more far-reaching impact, that is, to completely smash the neutral faction among the entire alien race, so that these races that have never participated in the war, because they have no backers Tianchi clan, join the battle, at least they will not be held back during the battle.
You must know that the construction of alien territories is backward, and a large area of primitive terrain occupies most of the territory, and if you want to transport soldiers, materials, and equipment, you can only transport them through point-to-point transportation, and this point is the tribes distributed in these primitive terrains.
But often on a certain transportation route, one of the points will be the tribe of the neutral race, which makes them very uncomfortable. The detour will delay time, and if you go through it directly, you will be blocked by the neutral race on the grounds that they do not support the war, which is simply a cancer on the battlefield.
Therefore, after defeating the Tianchi clan, the main battle faction of the alien race will definitely reap greater benefits, and will even rewrite the situation on the entire battlefield. Not to mention the sinkholes and artificial brains that still haven't figured out what they're used for.
Bei Gun's face suddenly became serious: "This matter must be reported to the empire as soon as possible." ”
"Oh, it's already been reported!" An Xiaoyu said suddenly.
"What?" The surrounding generals, including Beigun, were all taken aback, and looked at An Xiaoyu in disbelief, with an expression of "what are you talking about".
An Xiaoyu smiled and said, "I mean, it's already reported." After I broke through, I had already passed through the limits of the extreme north and linked to the book of the world, and when you affirmed this conclusion just now, I had already reported the situation here to the imperial capital. ”
"And what's next?" North asked.
"Next, it's up to Huang Wuyi."
