Chapter 19: The Sentinel (I)

Since the ultimate goal is to capture the castle at the top of Mount Hyjal, the four factions are stationed in all four directions of Mount Hyjal, and each has its own outpost at the bottom of the mountain.

The outpost is not only the bridgehead for the four factions to attack Mount Hyjal, but also their retreat guarantee when the war is unfavorable.

To put it simply, it's a wave of towers in the game - build a few arrow towers in front of the enemy's door before attacking.

Of course, the three arrow towers in the game are thirty in the mission world.

Shen Yi's second task is to destroy the outpost of any of the three major races, at least destroy the thirty arrow towers, and erect his own arrow towers to completely seal the enemy's main route.

The problem is that the outpost is not only the arrow tower, but also an army of up to 500 people, five captains, a commander and thirty elite guards.

Leaving aside these soldiers, the arrow tower alone is enough for the adventurers to drink a pot.

The Elven Clan's Arrow Tower is actually a kind of tall giant tree. Unlike in the game, these trees are not treants and do not throw stones, but are a type of iron thornwood that can be fired from branches as sharp arrows.

The way the elves build the arrow tower is also very simple, find a place, sprinkle the seeds, and then pour some life fountains, and the trees will grow quickly and grow into towering giant trees in a few days.

The Iron Thorn Wooden Arrow Tower is a weapon of war spawned in this way, they shoot sharp branches, attack range of 800 meters, damage 40-120, can send out up to twelve sharp thorns at once to attack multiple targets or a single target. 1500 HP, fixed and unable to move.

That's not all, when an Elven soldier hides on the Iron Thorn Wood Arrow Tower, it automatically has a stealth effect, and the health regeneration rate is doubled, and each Iron Thorn Wood Arrow Tower can accommodate up to three Elf Archers, and any more will not guarantee the effect.

In other words, a single arrow tower is enough to temporarily contend with an adventurer.

That's why Shen Yi tried his best to pull the other adventurers into the water, relying on the combination of the Broken Blade Team and the Brute Bull Team alone, even if he could take this base, he was afraid that he would suffer heavy losses. But now that the adventurers are supporting him, Shen Yi's hope of success has greatly increased.

Since this task was too difficult, Carlos divided the requirements into two parts: 1 Demolish the enemy's arrow tower 2 Build his own arrow tower.

For each part completed, Shen Yi will be rewarded with one hour of teaching time.

The inheritance tasks of Warcraft are basically in this way, and how much inheritance you can obtain depends on your understanding on the one hand, and your ability to complete the task on the other. Of course, if you have the ability to kill a hero directly, it is possible to drop the corresponding skill scroll, then you can master it directly.

The former requires hard work and learning, step by step, while the latter requires hard work and luck, one step at a time, each with its own pros and cons.

At around two o'clock in the afternoon, Shen Yi led thirty-two adventurers and his orc team to a hillside a thousand meters away from the outpost, just outside the elven cordon.

From here, the entire outpost can be seen positioned on the front of a wooded field. For elves, the woods are the best place to be safe. Fighting here, they can exert one hundred and twenty percent of their strength. The base is surrounded by trees on three sides, except for the front gate, which is made of huge stones and stones.

There are also horse repelling and stone barriers at the front, which are rudimentary but extremely effective.

A few vigilant owls are flying in the sky - God forbid the city not to make them invisible, but real owls.

Some elven archers stood in front of the base camp gate, guarding the perimeter.

"That's where we're going to fight. Putting down the binoculars, Shen Yi said: "30 Iron Thorn Wooden Arrow Towers, each with 100 points of Camp Honor, 120 Marksmen, 1 point of honor each, 120 Sentinels, 2 points of honor each, 30 Horned Eagle Beasts, 3 points of honor each, 90 Dryads, 4 points of honor each, 60 Druids of Raptor with 5 points of honor each, 60 Claw Druids, 7 points of honor each, 20 ballistae, 6 honor points each." In addition, there are five captains, one commander, and thirty guards, and this is all their strength, totaling about 7,000 camp honors, which is enough for everyone. ”

I have to admit that his speech is very skillful, and while reporting his strength, he directly linked the opponent's huge strength with his own gains, so that the comrades-in-arms around him gasped and were also blushing at the huge gains.

One of the adventurers looked straight at the camp in the distance and said to himself, "Damn, I can't eat under my eyes." Boss Shen, I said that your appetite is too good, isn't this sending us to death?"

To say that more than thirty adventurers really can't deal with such a base, it may not be. With the current abilities of the adventurers, the ratio of one to fifteen can still be fought, but the problem is that war is not like individual combat, and it will not be evenly distributed. In a real fight, some people may only face one or two, but others will have to face the siege of dozens of enemies, which means that there will inevitably be a lot of battle losses in the fight.

For adventurers, as long as there is 20% battle damage, it is already a very dangerous battle, after all, no one can be sure whether they are the 20% or not.

Like Shen Yi, who can die a group of comrades-in-arms every time he fights, it can only be said that this guy really has an aura of annihilation. No way, who told him to always pick a rewarding task?

Recently, Shen Yi has reined in, but after the manager gave him the information, the adventurous heart in Shen Yi's heart burned again. For him, there is no need for plug-ins, it is a thunderstorm.

Sure enough, at this moment, Shen Yi smiled and said: "Don't worry, it's not that you have to fight hard with your life, you can find a way." ”

"What?" someone asked.

"There are too many methods, such as luring the snake out of the hole, encroaching on the troops, and weakening the opponent; such as attacking the east and the west, attacking openly and secretly, and catching the opponent by surprise; another example is sneaking in disguise, assassinating the commander, and eliminating the baggage; and another example is a blow far away, how much can be gained...... There are so many classic tactics in China, which one of them is not a ready-made good method to learn to use? Especially since we are not ordinary people, we have special abilities that others do not have. Our lives are stronger, our speed is faster, our strength is stronger, our abilities are more diverse, and the more tactical variations we can use. ”

Everyone's eyes lit up.

As Shen Yi said, regarding war strategies, the ancestors of the Chinese have left them too many good things, Shen Yi does not need to push the old and bring forth the new, just need to learn according to it, there are endless good methods.

Since the opponent is strong, then break it down and then nibble at it one by one, which is strategically called creating local advantages, and gradually controlling the overall situation by constantly expanding local advantages.

This is also the classic thinking of the era of cold weapon warfare, and all tactics are ever-changing, and they are inseparable from this core essence. As long as this is grasped, all plans to serve this purpose will be meaningful.

In this case, the outpost of five hundred people in front of him did not look so terrifying, but more like a delicious big cake, waiting for them to eat it bite by bite.

But wait.

These things all sound good, but the question is whether this is really just a Chinese invention?

In addition, the reason why classical tactics are classic is that they are often used, so there is an eternal flaw in classical tactics - a lack of novelty.

Since there is no invincible mode in the tactics themselves, any tactic must also have its-for-tat counterpart. If you don't play well, you will be counted by others, which is also nothing new in history.

But Shen Yi didn't say anything about this, he would never do such a thing as destroying his own morale.

"In that case, what advice does Boss Shen have?" someone asked.

Shen Yi's tone was very relaxed: "First bring a batch out and destroy it." In any case, the first time we attack the other person will not be guarded, and it is the easiest time for us to succeed. ”

This time he didn't lie, at least the first surprise attack, due to the unpreparedness of the elves, it would definitely work. As for the so-called follow-up plan, that's simply nonsense.

Shen Yi's plan is actually very simple, that is, to take advantage of the poor intelligence, first lead a group to destroy, and then attack. Playing tactical changes with elves, he never thought about it. What are you kidding, people are regular soldiers, and they don't know less than themselves. When it comes to the diversity of abilities, adventurers are certainly not ordinary people, but are the elves just ordinary people?

At this time, it reflects Chu Sheng's words, in this case, hard battle is the king.

As for what will happen in the battle later, it depends on how many of these elves have been lured and eliminated in advance. Shen Yi hopes to attract more.

If you want to catch a big fish, of course, you have to put enough bait.

With a wave of Shen Yi's hand, his small group of 78 orc soldiers walked out of the hillside and walked towards the base of the elven clan.

The elven sentries in charge of the guard quickly discovered the movement of the periphery, and immediately raised the alarm after seeing that it was a large number of orc soldiers, and then saw a large number of elf soldiers rushing out of the base.

When the orc soldiers saw so many elven soldiers again, they first froze for a moment, then turned around and ran.

Sure enough, the tall and long-standing leader in front of the base, with a pair of beautiful long ears and a green jade longbow, pointed forward, and a team of elven soldiers had chased after him.

Although the elves have not yet released endless killing missions, there is no reason not to eat the enemies sent to the door.

To Shen Yi's regret, there were only a hundred elven soldiers in pursuit, namely fifty elven sentinels, twenty clawed druids and thirty dryads, and none of the elven archers that Shen Yi wanted to eliminate the most. Sure enough, the commander acted very steadily, and did not give the enemy any opportunity to take advantage of it.

"It looks like we'll have to eat this centurion first. Shen Yi sighed. In any case, it would be good to be able to destroy one-fifth of the opponent's troops first.

At this moment, Shen Yi's body suddenly shook.

He saw several special figures following the pursuer.

It's an adventurer!

"Damn, there's an adventurer chasing them down!" Shen Yi shouted, "Everyone come with me, ready to kill them!"

Things really went in the worst direction, there were adventurers in the outpost!

These guys must have taken on some kind of mission to get here, but the problem is that there shouldn't be such a mission under normal circumstances.

It must be a ghost in the city!

There has been a change on the orc side, and there will inevitably be some changes in the other camps.

As soon as he thought of this, Shen Yi was annoyed in his heart, and scolded the city: Bastard, Lao Tzu is doing something for you!

It's true that he is doing things for the city, but what he is doing now has nothing to do with the work that the city has to do. However, Shen Yi directly ignored this.

Rushing down the hillside with everyone, the elven pursuit force has arrived.

The orc squad stopped running away and turned to meet them.

Shen Yi pointed at the soldiers in front of him: "Kill them all, fight quickly!"

At the same time, an owl roared from the shoulder of an elven sentry and flew in the direction of the camp, apparently to report what was happening here.

The time left for Shen Yi to them is no more than five minutes at most.
