Chapter 114: Fire
Generally speaking, it is not surprising that the defenders choose 8 groups in the Sierra Leone City Attack and Defense map, as there are two fixed sets of magic cannons on the walls, and it is a proven strategy to deploy two secondary warbands there. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Kalito did have two groups of warbands on standby early in those two grids representing the magic cannon, and the other three warbands stayed near the city wall to collect resources and take advantage of the terrain.
And Kalito's three vanguard warbands that drove straight out made him look like a defender with a weak weighted value at all, as for what kind of strength these three warbands had, Su Wen needed to make a judgment.
Carlito looked like he was going to play with his life, and even after the war curtain wall was lowered, he still came unabated, apparently on the surface with the determination to eat himself, this result is easy to judge, so the normal response is naturally to avoid its edge, while the other three are marching at full speed. But if there is such a simple thing, I am afraid that the simulation of war chess will not be praised.
Su Wen knew that Carlito was waiting for him to become suspicious.
There must be a demon when things go wrong, and under Carlito's abnormal long drive, it is not the norm for Su Wen to evade it, but to be suspicious, and it is the norm to come up directly and fight one enemy and three fronts. So, in the case of insufficient information, it is only right not to follow the norm, even if Carlito has half of the weighted forces deployed in these three warbands, he can stand on a par with one of his main regiments - after all, he can move three times in a round.
In fact, Su Wen regretted a little, if he chose to let the two warbands advance as the main force, and did not obtain the resource points in the swamp area, he might be able to fight with these three warbands with confidence and boldness, fortunately, he is not stupid, the nearest swamp wargroup is only 6 squares horizontal and 8 squares away from the main wargroup, as long as he drags on for four or five rounds, he can intersect. Under the crushing of absolute strength, even if these three warbands had the vast majority of Kalito's combat power, Su Wen could fight against them with confidence.
So, in the first round of the Ming chess battle, Su Wen's two fringe battle groups continued to advance, and the swamp war group began to turn in the direction of the main battle group, and the main battle group set up a magic trap chess in place, consuming 1 cost of public mana, and took the initiative to retreat three squares. This magic trap is activated when an enemy passes through a tile around it, dealing a total of 5 random damage and not taking effect on allies.
In the second turn, Kalito continued to advance three pieces, and then moved another piece outside the city wall to pick up resources, moving a distance of 2 blocks, but Su Wen was not sure if this was the upper limit of the group's mobility. However, at least for the fact that the main force of Carlito is facing out in the middle line, Su Wen believes a little more, if he chooses not to retreat but advances just now, maybe he has entered the battle stage at this time.
But why did he do this, didn't he want his family, he just wanted to be tough with himself?
With this doubt, Su Wen continued and then stepped back.
At this point, he still had 11 mana mana, and the Forest and Mountain Warbands were close to the midpoint of the map, and in 10 and 14 turns, respectively, they would be able to reach the walls of Sierra City.
In the third round, Kalito's vanguard warband went around the edge of the mana trap and continued to march towards Su Wen's main warband, but the next two warbands marched towards the grids on both sides, as if they wanted to intercept Su Wen's fringe warband.
Now Su Wen was a little confused, could it be that the other party is going to fight 3 against 4, and he is still doing it when his total combat strength is only half of his own? This game doesn't pay attention to any micro-manipulation, the combat power is really there, and it's not for nothing to win more with less, but it all depends on his luck, or is it that Calito is so confident in his own divine luck, even if he is sure to win in a head-on battle?
But in any case, the distraction factor of morale is omitted, and there are no obvious topographical differences in the central plain, so it is a ghost not to fight this kind of battle. However, it is safe that he did not retreat and advance, but let the main battle group stand by in place, so as not to be besieged by the three war groups too deeply, and if the high-speed war group of Carlito continued to advance in the next round, he would basically not be able to hit himself, but he could counterattack after that and seize the opportunity to attack.
In addition, Su Wen's flanks and the three warbands located in the swamp began to compress to the middle, and if he could finish out the three warbands of Carlito in his own half, even if it was not the main warband, it would not be a disadvantage. In any case, his manipulation limit is only four warbands, and only one of the three warbands used to explore near the city walls is capable of acting per turn.
"End the round. ”
Su Wen said lightly, after all, he always made the most reasonable choice, as long as he was not caught by Kalito's strongest attack, there was basically no suspense in this battle.
Carlito was smiling the whole time, but this time he didn't rush into it, as if he was lost in thought.
Sure enough, did there be hesitation?
The thought didn't last long, and Carlito put the front-line piece in place 4 times, representing standby, and then ...... Maneuvering the other three exploratory pieces towards their nearest next resource point, ignoring the other two pieces heading to the front line.
“......”
Is this to abandon these three warbands?
Su Wen felt that Carlito had been trying to induce him all along, but under the absolute weighted suppression, going out of the city to fight was in itself an act that was no different from self-destruction. Su Wen was not in a hurry, as long as the pockets he laid were successfully closed, even if the three war groups had all the strength of Kalito, there was nothing to fear.
As a result, Su Wen's main force was also on standby, and the other three battle groups quickly formed a pocket formation.
On the fifth turn, Calito grabbed two resource points at the back, but still didn't move his three prominent formations in the center of the map, which formed a regular triangle. At this time, Su Wen's wargroup in the swamp has come out of the swamp and resumed its travel speed under normal terrain, and Su Wen's main wargroup is only 3 rounds away, and the mountain wargroup has bypassed the inactionable point, and the other two points of the triangle are sandwiched like the forest warband, so that the form of Carlito's three warbands is in danger, and if you don't choose to retreat in the next round, you may not be able to have a chance to retreat without a fight.
In the sixth round, Carlito did retreat.
This move did not surprise Su Wen, anyway, Carlito only had two options: fighting and retreating, and under the encirclement of three directions, he couldn't even drag on without fighting. However, Su Wen felt that the other party's goal seemed to have been achieved, and three of his current four battle groups had deviated from their original trajectory, and even the one in the center had been dragged for several rounds. However, this result will not make Carlito make a lot of money, because he also manipulated the action power of the three warbands to contain it, which can only be regarded as a small profit?
All in all, it is a very common routine in simulated war chess, but it is indeed effective.
At the moment, Su Wen's flank warband continued to push forward, locking up more options for Carlito, and if he didn't continue to withdraw like he did in the previous round, then the pocket array would completely block his retreat and eat his three prominent warbands to death.
Carlito chose to retreat again, and because of his greater mobility on the plains, he was far out of Suwen's pocket. Su Wen had no choice but to keep the horizontal unchanged and continue to chase upwards, in this situation, it was the magic trap he placed in the middle of the point that became a loss of overprudence.
In the next few rounds, with the advantage of action, Carlito successfully attracted the hatred of Su Wen's four warbands with three warbands, until Suwen's chess pieces fully advanced to the opponent's half, only to find that his flank warband had already gone out of its original track. But there is no way to do it, Su Wen thinks that he has made the most appropriate judgment, since the package is not successful, then he will approach according to the current route, and wait until he is about to enter the range of the magic cannon, and then it is not too late to carry out a scattered attack.
Until the 14th round, plus the 10 rounds of the dark chess stage, the game has been played for 24 rounds, and there has been no friction between the two sides......
Carlito's three vanguard warbands have retreated to the vicinity of the city walls, while the three warbands that explored and gathered in the wild have not yet returned, and if it weren't for the simplified version of the wargame without the setting of wild creatures, his harvest should be even richer at this time. At this time, Su Wen's flank wargroup began to approach the three exploration warbands of Kalito, because if he continued to drive straight in, he would have to face the coverage of the magic guide cannon with a range of up to 8 blocks, and even if he didn't attack at that time, there would be losses, not to mention that he really needed to disperse.
However, this behavior was not rewarded, and in short, within a few rounds, Carlito's exploration bands had all shrunk into the protection of the city walls, and it only took one turn to be able to return to the city......
Su Wen looked at the remaining more than half of the resource points in his side, and seemed to understand something.
After Carlito's trickery, his own route has deviated, and naturally he has not been able to harvest the most resources according to the original route, and there will be a gap in terms of public benefits, and then attack the city wall at this time, and the probability of victory or defeat will be tilted.
Moreover, in this map, the conditions for defeat of the attackers are more harsh. If it's just an ordinary encounter, then the number of rounds that force the end and settlement is the smaller number of long and wide squares in the map, and the same is true for the Sierra Leone offensive and defensive battles, which are forced to end after 32 rounds of the Ming chess battle, but will not be settled by points, but will directly determine the attacker as negative at the end, that is, it is impossible to go back and capture the resource point at this time, because he is not sure that he can take down the wall in just a few rounds......
That is, you can only attack, and you can't turn back.
Attack, it will definitely enter the range of the magic cannon.
Su Wen adjusted his posture in two rounds, allowing himself to advance from the city wall in four different directions as much as possible, and all the warbands of Carlito had already returned to the city, at this time, he began to rely entirely on the terrain advantage of the city wall.
Although he knew that he had been pinned down badly in the bloodless battle just now, and he hadn't even figured out the composition of the opponent's battle group until this time, Su Wen didn't think that he would lose steadily. The real battle still starts with a firefight, and everything that lies ahead is just a straw on the balance of victory, which may tilt one side a little, but it will not have a qualitative effect if the difference in IQ between the two sides is not too large within a limited number of rounds.
In the 18th round, Su Wen's arrangement was ready, and he chose to let the wargroup with the water-based offensive and defensive purple card and the light-based offensive purple card be the first to break through, that is, the forest wargroup and the swamp wargroup on both sides of the chessboard, and the other two warbands did not move. If Carlito's magic cannon fires the next turn, it will have a cooldown of 3 turns, and in these three turns, the remaining two warbands will be able to reach the walls.
At the beginning of the nineteenth round, Calito's finger pressed on the magic cannon on the left side, and then pointed at Su Wen's warband with the light purple card.
"Fire. ”
He said with a smile.
However......
In the next second, there was a sudden explosion from the 10 apartments next to it, and the glass on one side of the window was suddenly broken, and when Su Wen looked up, he found that a very conspicuous red thing was thrown out, and he was lying in the middle of the road with convulsions.
Then came the cold snort of the owner of the apartment.
"Idiot, don't come in again!"
There was silence for a moment, and then Carlito said without looking back, "In less than 20 minutes, it was not beyond the teacher's expectations. (To be continued.) )
