Chapter 51: The Pass
All kinds of things have forced Xiao Liu to have almost no time to rest, whether it is inside or outside the gate, it seems to be shrouded in a terrifying haze. In this same environment, Xiao Liu's terrifying management ability has forcibly extended the life of this pass a lot.
However, to no avail.
The troops of the Warcraft still kept consuming the defenders of the pass, fighting and running, leaving only Xiao Liu's slightly broken magic array and city walls, and repairing these things requires huge manpower, and it is difficult to continue to hold on without repairing. And the base that consumes manpower requires a lot of food.
But the food line has long been disconnected, and it can only be obtained through large teleportation arrays through remote contact with some large cities in the distance. This method is not a long-term solution, after all, long-distance spatial teleportation cannot last long, and the number of spatial magicians who can perform such teleportation is already very rare, and the use of this kind of magic is also very demanding and expensive for magicians, so they can only barely insist on holding on for a while longer.
The biggest problem is still the beast tide, because of the existence of the beast tide, nothing can be solved. The other side is like a group of well-trained troops specializing in guerrilla warfare, and they cannot catch their whereabouts at all. In addition, the individual strength of these demonic beasts is not weak, once they chase deeply, it is easy to fall into the encirclement of the other party, and if they do not pursue, it is equivalent to letting the other party harass them wantonly.
"It's crazy......"
Xiao Liu said this, and once again used the refreshment technique to lift his spirits, but he didn't know how long this state would last...... With high-precision command and the cooperation of summoned creatures, they have managed to thwart several waves of demonic beast attacks - of course, this has only delayed their consumption of the city walls.
Of course, this is already a big victory, at least for the whole pass, and it is very exciting news. After all, more or less, this group of people has been frightened by the invading demonic beasts recently, and they feel like ghosts, but under Xiao Liu's precise guidance, they have finally gained some insignificant advantages, which is already a huge change.
But Xiao Liu couldn't raise any confidence in his heart at all, he understood that in fact, this kind of thing only stabilized people's mentality a little, and it still didn't help the whole war. If you want to really gain an advantage, you need to at least hit the opposing troops hard. But now that the haze in the pass had just cleared a little, he was too embarrassed to speak.
He is still constantly forcing himself to do more things, whether it is scheduling, or controlling the summoned undead, or the endless archives of events in the city - people have a limit after all, and Xiao Liu feels that he seems to be hovering on the edge of this boundary, and he may fall at any time.
"It's not a bad situation right now, you'd better take a break, Xiao Liu. ”
Behind the door, a faint voice slowly came, echoing throughout the room. It's just that this voice doesn't seem to have any effect, and Xiao Liu is still doing what he should do. Still lying on the desk, he asked the creature behind the door: "Mountain ghost, can the military force that asked you to investigate investigate?"
As if with a sigh, the voice became a little frustrated, "It's not that I'm too weak, it's that the opponents are really too aimed at me, and after my first appearance, they set up a magic array that is almost entirely aimed at me. Now I can barely get in, and if I do, it's almost a dead end. And the other party seems to be paying great attention to me, and this kind of magic array cluster is getting more and more in the forest. ”
The mountain ghost's answer was very subjective, but it also succeeded in making Xiao Liu understand the other party's attitude towards the mountain ghost - since this guy rushed into the forest and killed a large number of high-level monsters, this group of demonic beasts began to be frantically wary of this creature. It seems that he got information about mountain ghosts from somewhere, and he quickly found a way to target it.
"I have to admit that the other side is much better than us in handling the war......
Xiao Liu sighed and continued to do his job. And the mountain ghost thought about it, and it seemed that it would not be of much use for him to go out again, so he got into Xiao Liu's shadow and disappeared without a trace.
......
The dragon knights did not arrive as promised, and the army was nowhere to be found. By the time they were given further communication, they had already begun to shirk it, and it was a chaotic scene at home and a war of aggression on the border...... In addition, some dragon knights suddenly lost contact on the way to the arrival. The whole country is like a complete frying pan, the intelligence below cannot be conveyed to the above, and the orders from above are borderless and chaotic.
Within a few hours of the news, the Warcraft had organized an unprecedented large-scale siege of the city - this was something Xiao Liu did not expect, and it was also something that all the garrison personnel did not expect, they had obviously been tentative attacks in the past, and when the garrison force was still relatively perfect, it suddenly became what it is now, which is really incomprehensible. Although this siege was not easy, it did not cause any huge losses.
On the contrary, the Warcraft, which had been "absolutely not losing" before, was greatly traumatized because of this...... In addition, the formation against the mountain ghosts still did not spread below the pass, resulting in this super monster summoned by Xiao Liu from the void as if it were in a no-man's land, and most of the damage among the high-level demonic beasts was caused by him.
It's just that even so, Xiao Liu didn't feel relaxed at all. After all, with the first general attack, there will be a second, there will be a third, and each time it will be more thorough and more powerful. If I'm not mistaken, this time I'm just trying, trying to see what strength they have to defend the city, testing their remaining energy.
In the final analysis, it was still cannon fodder that deceived their intelligence.
This kind of thing is only a bad thing for Xiao Liu, after all, this is a sure gain for Warcraft - whether it is magic or warriors, or long-range physical troops, they all restrain each other, once their intelligence is almost understood by the other party, it basically means that the war is over.
In the so-called wizarding world, there is also such an information war.
The impact is not large, and it begins to recede after being traumatized. Immediately after that, he felt that the formation against the mountain ghost began to advance faster towards the pass, and if he didn't guess wrong, the thing that the other party was most afraid of now was this overlord-level creature called the mountain ghost.
"It's also within the scope of understanding, after all, you were also once the king of the elements......" Xiao Liu said casually, continuing to design the teleportation formation - after all, this place has become extremely dangerous, and although the mainland is chaotic, it is not so life-threatening. If possible, send as many citizens away as possible.
"Are you going to give up here, then?"
The mountain ghost looked at the pass that was trying his best to repair, and asked Xiao Liu helplessly. It seems that in his life, he has never encountered such a situation.
"Yes, send as many people here as you can...... Hey, the quota still has to be arranged as reasonably as possible, otherwise it will be a big problem at that time......" Xiao Liu scratched his head and kept writing.
The mountain ghost did not speak again, but returned to Xiao Liu's shadow.
He knew that when Xiao Liu chose to do this, it meant ...... This juncture is about to fall.
