Chapter Seventy-Six: The First Battle Formation
"Generals, here we are. Welcome to the front line of the Zerg, the Boulder Star, the Iron Wall Fortress. β
One of the top 10 frontline planets, Boulder. Dunant and his entourage, a total of 300 magical warriors above the silver level, finally arrived at their new battlefield.
Iron Wall Fortress, a giant wall built on the Dark Iron Rock Mountain.
Three hundred meters high, five meters and ten thick, the whole body is cast of alloy steel, and there is no gate that can be entered and exited for more than 500 miles. The majestic wall built by the Azure Star Alliance for a hundred years is like a giant iron and steel ring, blocking the enemy army and also encircling the main formation. In more than a hundred years of large and small wars, there are countless corpses under the city walls, and a gap has never been broken.
Insect acid rot poison, the giant cannon of the gray clan, failed to collapse a corner; The mountain king insect's halberd, the iron clan's quantum explosive bomb, can't drill through a hole.
Because it has not been broken for a hundred years, it is named Iron Wall.
"The iron wall that does not fall is really majestic!"
A group of demonic warriors arrived, and their voices kept ringing out. Even some warriors who tried out the ten-meter mecha felt small under the three-hundred-meter high wall. Some experienced soldiers can still show that the fifty-meter-thick steel wall, as well as layers of external auxiliary armor several meters thick, further strengthens the acid defense and ray attack of the city wall. In the face of this flawless defense, the crowd could not think of any other weapon that could break through it head-on.
"Welcome generals to the Iron Wall Fortress."
A general with residual blood walked in front of the magic energy troops, saluted a military salute, and asked the soldiers next to him to open the video, saying: "On the edge of the battlefield, this general is not very polite, forgive me." I'm Tang Tie, you can call me Old Tang. First of all, let me introduce you to your most important enemy in the future. β
The video opens.
The camera reflects the bloody battle on the battlefield.
Chariots are atrocious, fighters are flying in groups, and countless mechas, large and small, are charging. On the Zerg side, large and small insects and beasts flooded the ground like a tide, and pounced on the human mechanical army like a huge wave. There are also countless large flying insects in the sky, which are surging like the sun.
"These are reapers." The general froze the camera, pointed to an erect insect beast wielding an insect blade and sweeping vertically and said: "The most threatening enemy in the Zerg army. After scientists captured and studied, it now has the dual characteristics of iron and zerg, and the disadvantage is high energy consumption and short life. We're officially named Reaper, which means a killer creature crafted from Iron Tech and Zerg carapace. β
The video continues.
These reapers are like terrifying killing gods, their sharp scimitars and insect blades can cut through chariots and mecha like tofu; Their spear-like insect stingers can also penetrate the shields of any mech; Their hammer-like limbs are more capable of bursting a chariot. In front of them, every fighting unit was a small lamb, and there was no chance to struggle under the sharp teeth of the wolf.
"Our tactics can only be encircled and annihilated."
The general opens another video, which shows a group of hundreds of soldiers, scattered around the perimeter to encircle and shell the Reapers. However, before the insect armor could be completely destroyed and the reapers, at least seventy percent of the soldiers were killed.
Surround one with a herd, and the result is still a pyrrhic victory.
"Are these soldiers mechanized or clones?" Some of the demonic warriors couldn't bear it and asked.
"Both." The general looked slightly hurt and whispered.
The crowd understood.
It's not that there are mechanized soldiers and clones, but real human soldiers are also involved. Because this kind of encirclement requires a lot of 'tactical commanders', mechanized humans and clones do not have this kind of 'intelligence', and even if they are very human-like, they cannot perfectly wield the effect of tactics. If the tactics against the Reapers, if they fail, it means that the whole team will die in vain.
"What do you need us to do?" The Reaper was so terrifying that everyone couldn't help but feel a little chill when they saw those figures.
"You have three kinds of tasks."
The general turned on the video, pointed to a group of reapers who pounced on the city walls, and said: "The first is to defend the fortress and fight the reapers on the city walls. Use your special abilities and medium-sized mechs to stop these Zerg spearheads. As soon as they occupy a section of the wall, they flood in. β
The footage continues with a dozen reapers occupying the city walls and guiding a group of insect soldiers into the fortress.
Then after jumping to ten minutes, a 100-meter large mecha rushed to the rescue.
Fought off the swarm.
"I am here to deeply care for everyone, and choose the first way to protect the peace of the Iron Wall Fortress." The general bowed as if he were pleading. But everyone can hear the truth, this is the 'safest' option, I hope you don't take risks.
"Second, follow the mobile forces and attack the Zerg nest." The general continued, opening a video of a group of mechs invading the Zerg Nest: "This kind of battle is fierce and more dangerous. There are generally many reaper defenses in the hive colony, as well as the large and small insect kings of the Zerg. But once the attack is successful, our pressure can be greatly reduced, and even safe for several years, this task also requires the cooperation of warriors. β
After the general said the second option, it seems that it is still a relatively safe option.
"The third type is the exploration team." The general opened a section of the number jΓΉ, which was a numerical table of things such as mineral resources, weapons stockpiles, energy supplies, etc. Then, he opened another number occupied by the Zerg and said, "In terms of technology, we are ten times superior to the Zerg. In numbers, they are ten times more than ours. I believe everyone knows that a long-term war does not depend on who is stronger, but on whose resources and logistics are more sufficient. β
The general turns off the video.
In the end, he said solemnly: "Our resources have been transported from the rear, and I believe that in the short term, it will be sufficient in ten or eight years." Once the war lasts and we don't open new mining stars and farming planets, we will definitely be dragged down by the Zerg. Therefore, the military department needs some death squads to go to some dangerous uninhabited planets to explore resources. Before you choose, explain that the enemy is doing this, and the Zerg are sending a large number of Reapers. When exploring an uninhabited planet, it is possible to go months without encountering an enemy, or you may be under siege on the first day, so this will be the most dangerous mission. β
The general finished speaking.
The audience was silent.
It was the first time they had heard of the Reapers, and they had never fought against enemy warriors.
This kind of exploration is a heavy task......
"We, the Silver Leaf Regiment, hope to participate in the exploration mission." Li Wenfu received Dunant's signal and immediately shouted loudly.
"And we don't work with any team." 6 Sheng added.
"If possible, we want to come out right away, don't waste time." Silver Bell spoke decisively at the end, and none of the team looked frightened.
When the general heard this, his eyes showed respect. Then, he slowly stretched out his hand and made a gesture of 'please this way' and said, "Thank you, Silver Leaf Group, please come to this department." Before you get out, you'll need some tools, communication equipment, and more special weapon systems. The Logistics Department also has some disadvantage-adaptive mechs for you to use. β
After the general signaled, he said to the other magic warriors: "Don't worry, everyone, if you want to contribute to the exploration team, it is best to understand the enemy situation before acting." Until then, I ask the generals to defend the fortress for us, and on behalf of all the soldiers, I would like to express my deepest gratitude. β
The silver leaf group walked away slowly.
The other magical warriors hesitated, trying to say something, but they couldn't spit it out.
As the general said: Familiar with the Zerg, fighting against the Reaper, with more experience, it is not too late to join forces to explore. For now, it's better to stay in the Iron Wall Fortress and help defend the battle. The general has already given himself a step, and there is no need to ask for trouble again.
And the crowd could hear it.
The phrase 'on behalf of the soldiers of the whole army to express my deepest gratitude' was addressed to the Silver Leaf Regiment.
Ordinary soldiers need strong people to support, but they need enough logistics. Ensuring that they have a gun in their hands and food in their bellies, these bravest and most dangerous exploration teams are the key to ensuring their logistical supply and demand.
*********
"Urgent war report."
In the United Front Work Department of the Front-line Military Strategy, a group of old men and dozens of staff officers were discussing, and an officer hurriedly broke in.
"Marshals, this Stone's Ironclad Fortress is an urgent battle report." The officer handed over a video for the staff to prepare for playback, and said, "Half an hour ago, there was a 1.5 million swarm battle in the Iron Wall Fortress. Moreover, the major support points have also been attacked by different methods, and even the large mecha base hidden in the dark has been delayed and unable to support in time. β
Everyone's faces changed when they heard this, and their noses already smelled a smell of conspiracy.
"The initial suspicion is that there is a traitor among us who has leaked the most important information." The officer's words shocked everyone, and the next sentence was even more shocking: "Because, almost all of the three hundred demonic warriors who had just been supported by the Iron Wall Fortress were killed. β
"What did you say?" An old man flashed in and grabbed the officer's collar.
The officers looked at each other with red eyes and said in a trembling voice: "It's true, Zhang Lao, I have repeatedly confirmed it five times." Of the three hundred, above the silver level, with medium-sized mechas, only six survived. Two hundred and ninety-four were killed on the spot, all at the hands of the reapers. β
Zhang Lao listened.
His eyes were gloomy, and he let go and took a step back.
"A group of 300 people support...... There are only six people left......" Zhang Lao muttered, unable to believe it.
This is a magical warrior.
It is still a rare seed above the silver level, and there are only more than 40,000 in the entire Azure Star Alliance. Now, in less than a day, nearly a hundredth of the total number of deaths in the Iron Wall Fortress alone. If there is a mole, then the rest of the world will also suffer?
"Someone, order ......" Zhang Lao thought, his eyes sharpened.
I was about to give orders.
At this time, the officer's face was gloomy, and he said in a low voice: "No need, Elder Zhang, they have already issued a warning." The moment the Ironwall Fortress was attacked, the garrison commander immediately issued a warning to the headquarters and bases. Based on the feedback we've received, the bases are in a bad situation, and some of them are being 'sneak attacked'. Listening to that tone, the loss of the Demonic Warrior should not be small. Fortunately, with the timely warning of the iron wall, the troops of the magical warriors who did not arrive were already prepared. β
"Okay, who is the iron wall, the official is promoted to the third level, and Lao Tzu personally confers the title." Boss Zhang yelled.
"Wait a minute."
After Zhang Lao finished yelling, a young staff officer walked out and asked, "You just said that there are only six of the three hundred demonic warriors in the Iron Wall Fortress. Who are they, who are they from that federation, how did they survive, did they participate in the battle? β
A word from the young staff officer.
The faces of the people were different.
They all thought that if there was a mole...... As the first place to be attacked and the most casualties, will the six people who survived......
"Open the video first." An instruction from the officer.
Then, a word was sorted out.
He hesitated slightly, and then said slowly: "When I took the report, I also suspected it for the first time, and I asked the commander of the iron wall in the conversation. He said that these six people are all on the same team, called the Silver Leaf Regiment, and they are the only team that will participate in the exploration team. Three minutes later, the sneak attack was born. The commander said that he himself suspected fraud, but the Silver Leaf Regiment rushed back and ......"
At this time, the recording has already begun.
A small celebratory feast, an inexplicable surprise birth...... Wine and desserts were spilled on the floor, blood and flesh were flying, and the unprepared warriors were preparing for the first and most swift fatal blow.
"I can't guarantee anything, Commander Tiebi said, we can all understand after watching the video."
The officer saluted the figure of the bloody battle in the video.
At this time, in my heart, I can't be sure if the Silver Leaf Regiment is a traitor who betrayed the information.
