115 Endpoint Campaign: Past
In the heart of the continent of Ilona, where the Gates of Hell are located, at Exit 1 of the Plains of Damnation, on the defensive position where the headquarters of the Garrison Legion is located.
"Commander-in-Chief!" A herald broke into the tent of the command, knelt down on one knee with his back to the door, and was leaning over to carefully study the projection battlefield An old man with gray hair, but not angry, reported.
"The 3rd, 4th, and 5th Heavy Regiments, the 7th and 8th Light Cavalry Regiments, the 10th, 11th, and 12th Mag Guide Regiments, and the 13th, 14th, and 15th Air Cavalry Regiments have successfully recaptured all exits from the Plains of Damnation!" Although he lowered his head, he could still hear the herald's excitement from his tone.
It seems that I forgot to explain that the races that do not hold the position of guardians are generally three troops, and then directly the formation of the brigade. And the race that serves as the guardian, under each unit, there are generally various corps, and below that there are brigades.
For example, Olivia, who is now the captain of the Czumea, should have been the captain of the 1st Brigade of the Forest Guard Force, while Kania An's rank was the captain of the 6th Brigade of the 1st Heavy Regiment of the King's Banner Force.
"What about the casualties?" The old man's tone was calm and calm that belonged to the older generation.
"Each heavy regiment lost more than 1,000 people, each light cavalry regiment lost more than 200 people, each magic guide regiment lost more than 30 people, and each air cavalry regiment lost more than 300 people, for a total loss of more than 4,000 people." The herald also recovered from his initial excitement and said in a low and sad tone.
"For us right now, the casualties are a bit big. However, as long as it can be recaptured, this loss is acceptable. The old man, who was then the commander-in-chief of the Hell's Gate Garrison Legion, nodded quietly.
In its heyday, the Hell Gate Garrison Corps would have stationed at least more than 20 corps, with a total number of more than 200,000 people. And at least ten corps could rush from the garrison to support the garrison corps in three days, relying on a rapid march. If necessary, it is even possible to station at least a million defense troops in the Damned Plain.
However, all this is useless when the real accident happens.
Ten days ago, that is, when everything happened, although because of the raging aftermath of "destruction", as the frontline of the garrison corps, it suddenly suffered the impact of a large number of crazy demons for the first time. However, with the special geographical advantages, permanent defensive enchantments, and positions that have been operated for more than 10,000 years, the garrison corps only suddenly had a lot more frontal pressure at the beginning, but it was far from the point of rout.
It's just that the next development is reasonable, and it does exceed everyone's expectations.
Because of those crazy demons who are not indistinguishable from each other, the situation on the battlefield of the entire continent has completely collapsed, and there are no reinforcements to support the gates of hell: just when everyone is confused, all the demons have been assimilated into crazy demons!
The technology tree of the Defense Barrier is not pointed out, and it is a big coffee table wherever you go......
The other positions are okay, only because the elves don't understand the characteristics of the enemy, coupled with the optimistic estimate of the supreme commander, and the ten spatial passages that suddenly opened in the end, did almost all the strong people be infected with a state of madness that almost reached the limit, and almost made the front line close to the city.
As the real frontline, the defensive position of the Damned Field, which would hardly end the battle all year round, collapsed almost instantly: the number of enemies was too huge, including not only a large number of low-level demons, but also various high-level demons of the Legendary Sanctuary Demigod level, as well as evil gods.
Except for the No. 1 exit where the main formation was located, the other exits were almost hit by the countless crazy demons like the tsunami frenzy, and they only lasted for two or three days before they were completely submerged.
Compared with the garrison for more than 10,000 years, the short period of two or three days is just a moment.
And if it weren't for all the soldiers on the battlefield fighting with the idea of dying, the position might have changed hands in just a few hours. By the time the old man, who was the commander-in-chief of the garrison corps, confirmed the situation and gave the order to temporarily retreat and preserve the vital forces, at least ninety percent of the corps of the garrison corps had been broken up, and more than half of the soldiers were fighting on the ground until the last moment of their lives.
But their sacrifice was not in vain, before retreating to Exit 1, all the high-level demons who attacked the position were almost completely destroyed, and the evil gods were all killed, so that after abandoning the position and retreating, it did not lead to further deterioration of the situation in the outside world.
The several legions that took advantage of the easing of the situation before, and also received orders from the highest level to attack, can be said to be the most complete, at least patchwork together, can also build a basic skeleton, this side of the formation is almost only left in a short period of time has been unable to form a team, and now completely rely on strict training and tenacious will to fight the guerrilla scattered.
As for the garrison corps, which is now almost disabled and has only about 80,000 people in total, although the loss of more than 4,000 people is not small, as long as it can recapture all the exits of the Damned Realm again, this loss is really not big.
Speaking of which, it is necessary to explain the Origin of Damnation again.
In many cases, the Gates of Hell refer to the entire area where this permanent gate of space is located. However, this area still has its own name, which is the Damned Plain.
It is a basin, centered on the Gates of Hell, and is surrounded by mountains and mountains with an average altitude of more than 10,000 meters, which are impossible to climb inside and outside, except for four entrances and exits that are secretly connected to each other.
That's right, it's not natural terrain, it's something you learned.
Even if it is a plane will, there is a bottom line that must be followed, or difficulties, and sometimes, Ilona can't do anything about his body, which will cause various unpredictable consequences. When it is necessary to make a move, it is generally necessary to rely on incarnations and other means to descend into the world, and at that time, the power of Ilona is not much different from the incarnation of ordinary gods.
But this does not mean that Ilona cannot interfere in various affairs on the mainland, many times Ilona only needs to say to the gods below and turn on the corresponding permissions.
The Origin of Damnation was inspired by Ilona and with the help of open authority and covertly, the gods burned everything in themselves in the years since the opening of the Gates of Hell, when the first wave of attacks was repulsed, and forged a basin of one of nature's top lines of defense.
As long as the defensive position at the exit is not missed, the advantages of the Hell's Gate, a permanent legion-level portal, are diminished to the extreme.
The only pity is that the elves faced the first wave of the offensive, almost exchanging time for life and land, and finally waited for the opportunity, led by the dwarves, and the continental alliance launched a wave of offensive and fought back.
Hawkers, when the time comes, the number of elven races that have been on the front line has dropped to three digits, and they have even been directly pushed to the doorstep by the demons, that is, under the walls of Avalon, so it is naturally impossible to continue to serve as a guardian. After the war, the position of Guardian was inherited by the Orcs.
As for the dwarves...... This poor child, directly in the counteroffensive operation, the total population was beaten to less than a thousand, and finally gave up the position of guardian that should reasonably belong to him to the orc race.
As I said before, almost all the various races on the continent of Ilona are all soldiers, and any adult must have received combat and military training, and can directly distribute weapons to the battlefield when needed, but because the individual strength of human beings is too weak, the distinction between civilians and soldiers will be obvious.
You can even directly see the civilians of the elves as members of the forest guard army at home, and there is no problem at all.
Therefore, once the war is fierce to a point, the race that is the guardian will almost be completely crippled, and the remaining four-digit ones will be considered lucky.
And the orcs who inherited the position of guardian after the war are not so much a formal succession, but rather a necessity due to the situation, even with a temporary meaning.
Heroic, hospitable, atmospheric, rude, hot-blooded, belligerent, murderous......
This litany of adjectives can be applied to orcs, and is a good footnote to the offense. But for defense......
I'll tell you a joke about letting the orcs defend their positions without being able to attack.
Let this race, which may point all its racial skill points on the offense, and guard the exit of the Damned Field, its temporary degree can be imagined.
As a result, living up to the disappointments of other races, or rather as expected, the orcs were almost never really defensive, and each time they were frantically hedging against the demons.
After another nearly 10,000 years, even the orcs, whose fertility surpassed that of humans, finally fought their own money on the battlefield......
You must know that after taking the position of guardian, this race will receive the favor of Ilona, and various gifts will be given to issues such as fertility difficulty, growth time, newborn qualifications, advanced difficulty, etc.
In the beginning, even races such as gods, titans, and dragons, which were known for their difficulties in fertility and growth time, could easily form various 10,000-level legions, not to mention races such as humans and orcs, which would flood almost carelessly.
In this way, the orcs still fought their families in the hedge......
The only thing to be thankful for is that just when the orcs were finally about to fall, with the help of other races, the humans finally grew up completely and took over the position of guardian.
In addition to individual strength, humanity has reached a perfect balance in other aspects, almost under the favor of Ilona: although the attack power is definitely weaker than that of the orcs, the defense is definitely stronger than the orcs.
Having said all this, in addition to reviewing history and filling in the pits, I just want to explain one thing.
The Plains of Damnation are very important to the current continent of Ilona, and the most important of them are the only four entrances and exits to this basin!
Even if you need to sacrifice half of the current garrison corps, as long as you can take it back, it will be worth it!
"Gather the soldiers who originally belonged to the engineering corps and the siege corps, and let them ...... at once" Just as Commander-in-Chief Anduin was arranging the next task, a staff officer rushed directly into the command camp tent, and then said loudly to the old man who was standing with his hands in a tense tone to the limit:
"Commander-in-Chief! Oh no! The reconnaissance team has found a large number of high-level demons on the front line! Detective magicians have also confirmed that there are a large number of high-intensity energy sources around the gates of hell! ”
At this moment, a floating battleship that looked like a coffin from a distance had already arrived on the border line of the Damned Field.
The curtain of the final bloody war has only just been opened.
