Chapter 6 Anomaly
"The troops of the various forces did not directly block the area around the door of death, it would be too stupid to do so, and they would only bring themselves into the range of the undead's attack. www.biquge.infoFurar didn't tease a few more girls, and began to explain seriously: "So the frontline posts of all sides are all one to two kilometers away from the door of death, and the frontline positions are arranged within a range of about twenty kilometers from the door of death. In this way, in the open desert, you can not only find out the movement of the Death Gate through the outpost, but also have a certain strategic depth and have enough room for contingencies. ”
"The most important thing is that it can also shorten the distance of supply, and in many cases, reducing the supply distance by one kilometer will significantly reduce the manpower and material resources consumed. Catherine, who is very knowledgeable about military knowledge, nodded in agreement: "I'm afraid it's difficult to replenish in the desert, even if the sandworms use sandworms to undertake most of the transportation work, but the soldiers of all races in the forward position add up to at least fifty or sixty thousand people, and it is not easy to maintain the diet of so many people." In a sense, the undead emerged from the Desert of Sighs, and it was much more difficult to intercept them. ”
"You haven't been to the Desert of Sighs, it's a terrifying place to be one of the forbidden areas of life in the world of Yara. Vral sighed: "Although the land of sand is also established in the desert, but after all, there are plants, oases, and creatures in the territory of the sand people, as long as you have enough knowledge of desert survival, you can still easily live, but the sighing desert is different, there is nothing in the sighing desert, only a piece of yellow sand, even if you find all over the desert, you can't find food, you can't find water, you get lost in the desert of sighing, the only result is death, even the strongest people have no chance of being spared." Because the living conditions are too harsh, the various forces do not dare to place too many troops in the depths of the desert for a long time, including us, so the total number of troops on the front line is only 20,000, but these 20,000 people are the most elite troops, which can temporarily delay the progress of the undead and wait for the follow-up troops to follow up or other orders. ”
"20,000 people? Catherine pondered and said, "I have never seen the scene of the war of the undead, but imagining the face of the undead piled up in front of the vision, no matter how you think about it, I think that 20,000 people is not enough." ”
"As soon as the post gives an early warning, the troops press forward. Vral explained: "If the encirclement is reduced, those elite soldiers can still control the undead in a short time, and as long as there is time to react, the troops behind can block all the passages and follow up layer by layer." After all, it was not initially certain whether the door of death would open, and it was impossible to equip more people inside. ”
"Well, the people who make tactics must be more professional than me. Catherine nodded, "I'm definitely not as comprehensive as theirs, so I won't be verbose." Now that the troops are all ready, what happened next?"
"As soon as the door of death was opened, the outpost alerted the troops on all sides, and at the same time, the spirits of the undead poured out of the door of death, as expected. Although Vral recounts what has happened, he always exudes a sense of confusion: "According to the established tactics, the troops in the forward positions began to move forward, shortening the distance between the two sides. But just a third of the way forward, some fighters from the outpost ran back to report that the situation was not quite right, and hoped that the commanders of the troops would see the situation clearly before making a decision. As a result, the troops blocked the radius of less than ten kilometers around the Death's Door, and several front-line commanders followed the scouts as they approached the Death's Door outpost and were surprised to see what they saw. ”
"The undead didn't attack them, did they. Pannis propped his arm on the table, holding his chin, and said leisurely, "I heard you elders arguing about what the undead will line up, so I estimated it. ”
"Well, according to our previous experience, the undead will only attack living beings frantically, once they come out of the door of death, they will spread around as soon as possible, and if they see the scouts, they will naturally desperately want to tear them to pieces. Vral nodded, "But this time is different, it is said that when the undead came out, they lined up like an army and set up a defensive formation. By the time the commanders arrived, nearly 10,000 undead had poured out of the Death's Gate, forming several teams to protect the Death's Door with a defensive formation, and from the Death's Door, there were more undead who continued to pour out, and then directly joined the existing troops to strengthen the defense. ”
"It's horrible. Catherine frowned and said, "If I were the commander, I'm afraid I wouldn't pay attention to anything, break through the opponent's defensive positions as soon as possible, and prevent them from gathering forces, otherwise it will be more difficult to drag them behind." ”
"That's true in theory, but it's not allowed in practice. Vral shook his head and said: "The undead are not at all like the last time, there are a very small number of high-level undead mixed with a large number of low-level undead, this time it is a very powerful undead who came out at the beginning, even if it is an elite army, they are not sure to break through the enemy's defense line, after all, the initial tactics are designed according to the very weak undead that appeared at the beginning, no one thought that this time it would suddenly become like this." ”
"And then?" Catherine asked, "what measures have our troops taken?"
The commanders immediately summoned their elites to press forward within three kilometers of the Death's Gate, and during this time, the undead did not pay any attention to the scouts who were peeking at their positions, but only defended and assembled on the spot, even if the scouts were already close to an extremely dangerous distance, they did not seem to see it. "When the troops and the undead are very close, the commanders begin to make various attempts, but unless the troops are close to the minimum alert range of a normal unit, the undead will suddenly assume an attacking posture to threaten, and once the troops retreat, the undead will revert to their original defensive posture and will not pursue." ”
"Are they really undead?" Catherine said incredulously, "it's already a well-trained and normal army." ”
"When the commanders bring the message back, a lot of people have the same idea as you. Vral smiled bitterly: "This situation makes the commanders even more afraid to attack rashly, who knows if the rash attack will suddenly lead to a counterattack from the undead, and if the elite troops can't resist it, they will not be able to complete the task of blocking the undead." Fortunately, these undead only defended around the door of death, and did not spread around, so the front-line troops could only monitor the movements of the undead while asking for help from the rear. ”
