Chapter 48: The Assassins
At the same time, the map near his nine units also became clearer, while the rest of the place was covered with fog and could not be seen at all.
"The fog of war...... It's the same as real-time games on Earth......" Seeing this familiar setting, Bai Bing was excited for no reason, as if he had found the days when he was a student playing games on Earth.
After the opening, the first thing Bai Bing had to do was to quickly adapt to the actions of these nine units with his fighting spirit, and at the same time quickly familiarize himself with the characteristics of these nine units.
Bai Bing found that these nine units were very sensitive to the fighting spirit, and it could be said that they were like arm envoys.
The three warrior knights and the three gladiators are the main melee units, and the characteristics are the same as in reality, the martial knights are balanced in attack and defense, biased towards strength, and the sword fighters are strong in attack and weak in defense, and pay more attention to agility. The correct usage should be that the warrior knight attracts firepower head-on, and the sword fighter desperately outputs.
Generals, Marksmen, and Assassins, these three are special strategic units. The general is extremely strong in all aspects, and has an aura that increases the attributes of surrounding units, the archer is the only ranged attack unit, and its importance is self-evident; as for the assassin, his own defense is extremely weak, but he has a special skill: he can exchange his life for a unit with a single blow.
After learning about the characteristics of all nine units, Bai Bing quickly divided them into three teams and headed towards the center of the map.
The map of the Western Front Basin is based on the open and secret struggle between the Radiant Empire in the Western Xinjiang Province and the Bize Federation over some resources.
The geomorphological features are very similar to those of the steppe hills of the western frontier of the empire, and the map is divided into three resource points, located in the highlands on the left, the central grassland, and the valleys on the right.
There weren't many surprises in Bai Bing's tactics, with nine units divided into three groups of three units each, heading for three resource points in three lanes.
It's just that in the unit grouping, a little thought was put into it. The general took a group of two gladiators, two warrior knights and archers, and the remaining one warrior knight and one gladiator and an assassin.
In this way, each group has a certain ability to attack, defend, and guerrilla, and is able to accomplish various strategic intentions, and at the same time, there is a possibility of a miracle of winning more with less.
It's just that all this must be based on the fact that Bai Bing's operation must be stronger than that of the opponent, otherwise such a detachment will easily become self-defeating and be broken by each one.
Soon, due to the downhill journey, the Assassin detachment heading to the Vale resource point was the first to arrive. The fog of war slowly lifted, Bai Bing did not find the opponent's troops, and near the resource point, only 3 neutral wild wolves roamed there.
"Since there is no one, I will first kill the wild wolf to gain some experience, and then occupy this resource point. Bai Bing immediately made a decision and commanded three units to encircle and suppress the wolf, while paying attention to the fact that the warrior knight would bear the main damage, the swordsman would share the damage, and the assassin would only be responsible for the output.
If they succeed in defeating the wolf, all three units will gain experience and strengthen their abilities.
At the same time, at the two resource points of the highlands and the center, the forces of White Ice began to encounter Gustavo head-on.
There is no such thing as saluting first and then soldiering, and the two of them are simply and rudely hand-to-hand!
"Huh, this guy has a very straightforward temperament, and I like it!" Gustavo laughed heartily, and his heart burned with infinite fighting spirit, and he commanded his troops to rush forward.
As soon as they fought, Bai Bing immediately noticed that the opponent's unit was stronger than his own unit in all aspects.
"It seems that this sand table should have the ability to sense the strength of the fighting spirit to adjust the attributes of the unit. “
Bai Bing thought for a while, and immediately unfolded his multi-line operation ability, giving full play to the utility of each unit, and using micro-manipulation to make up for the weakness of the unit's attributes.
Gustavo immediately discovered that whenever his martial knights wanted to encircle Bai Bing's general's itinerary, this guy would use a swordsman to strangely jam the vacant position, and then let his general get out, while maximizing the general's output, and after a while, his three martial knights would be covered in bruises.
At the same time, one of Bai Bing's swordsmen, like maggots on the tarsal bones, kept chasing Gustavo's archer and slashing at the back of his ass, so that he couldn't stop at all to output.
"This, how is it possible!" Gustavo was horrified, obviously his fighting spirit was stronger than his opponent, and he also had an advantage in terms of troops, but Bai Bing relied on precise control and excellent tactical arrangement, and he actually fought back and forth!
"Hahaha, okay! I didn't expect that although your fighting spirit level is not high, your ability to control your fighting spirit is still above me!" Outside the sand table, Gustavo laughed heartily at Bai Bing, "You are a very strong opponent! The stronger the opponent, the more it can arouse my fighting spirit! Take it, guy from the Far East!"
“...... Really, what's going on with this feeling of blood boiling, then come on, let's have a good fight!" Bai Bing's emotions were also deeply infected by Gustavo, and he shouted loudly with passion, even attracting the attention of many candidates who had not yet played the game.
In the sandbox, the battle for the highland resource point is fierce, and here, Gustavo sent a four-man team of generals and 3 swordsmen. And Bai Bing only has two martial knights and one archer.
Gustavo had a high fighting spirit, and with the advantage of his fighting spirit level, he commanded the general to rampage between the two martial knights of Bai Bing, and had a clear upper hand, not to mention the three swordsmen who were frantically exporting on the side.
If it weren't for Bai Bing's use of archers to introduce a fifth-order Warcraft Centaur from this resource point into the battle, it would have collapsed a long time ago.
But at this moment, the situation actually took a turn for the worse, and the sand table suddenly prompted: Bai Bing occupied the valley resource point.
At the same time, Bai Bing's assassin appeared behind General Gustavo like a ghost, sacrificing his life and killing the general with one move!
"What, when did your assassin actually come here!" Gustavo didn't expect this to happen at all, and for a while, his heart was shocked, and the three swordsmen in the highland resource point were also completely suppressed by Bai Bing's combination of martial knights and archers, and in the blink of an eye, another one was killed.
At the same time, the archers under Bai Bing's hands always skillfully pulled the hatred of the centaur, so that the target of the centaur's attack remained on Gustavo's body!
Soon, the ownership of the highland resource points began to tilt sharply towards the white ice side.
In the observation room of the Imperial Academy, many teachers were observing this game between Gustavo and Bai Bing.
It's just that most of the teachers are concerned about the performance of Gustavo, a little giant bear in the north, and only Director Rogge is paying attention to Bai Bing's performance due to the appearance of Xiaojin in the first level!
When he saw the assassin of Bai Bing suddenly appear and defeat Gustavo's general, a burst of light burst out in Rogge's eyes, and by the time the White Ice Archer showed his ability to control the field against the sky, Rogge's fists were already unconsciously clenched.
However, when Rogge moved his gaze to the central battlefield of the map of the Western Front Basin, his face could no longer maintain a pretended calm expression, and the whole person was in great spirits, and even waved his fist slightly, roaring in his heart: Beautiful!
At the central resource point, Bai Bing exerted his operation to the limit, and just by virtue of the general's position, he actually forced Gustavo's archers and martial knights together, and then seized the opportunity to directly kill the archers in seconds at the cost of half of the general's life!
And a gladiator who came from the valley resource point to support him secretly occupied the central resource point without knowing it!
What a domineering oppressive move!
It is hard to imagine that this kind of tactical manipulation actually appeared in the hands of a freshman who has just come into contact with the game of war chess.
In the battle that followed, the feeling between the two sides was completely different.
For Gustavo, it was undoubtedly an ordeal.
And for Bai Bing, it's a treat!
Bai Bing quickly captured all the resource points and took control of his troops, using the role of two special units, the General and the Archer, to kill the remaining forces of Gustavo with all his might.
Gustavo knew that he had no hope of winning, so he actually broke out in a desperate situation, and for a time he had the intention of fighting to the death to destroy all the units of Bai Bing.
Unfortunately, under Bai Bing's calm control and tactical arrangement, both sides in the middle lane were wiped out, which was very tragic, and the highland resource point relied on the attack of archers and neutral centaurs to wipe out Gustavo's entire army!
When the last unit of Gustavo died in the fatal arrow, the two big words of victory suddenly appeared in the center of the sand table!
As the curtain came down on this matchup, Bai Bing felt that due to the fierce and extremely precise control of his fighting spirit in this war chess game, his fighting spirit had actually improved, and he had completely reached the limit of Bronze Level 5, and it was possible to break through Bronze Level 6 at any time!
In the face of the powerful northern giant bear, Bai Bing, who was unfavored before the opening, actually achieved an overwhelming victory in which all three resource points were occupied and all enemy units were killed!
If someone had said that before the opening, they would have been considered crazy.
The most unsuccessful point of Gustavo's whole tactic was that he sent a single assassin to spy on the valley camp, but he was directly killed by the martial knight who gained the experience of wild wolves by Bai Bing, and even wanted to launch a life-sacrificing attack, but he had no chance.
On the contrary, Bai Bing's assassins did a good job of concealing their whereabouts, and at the critical moment, they dealt a fatal blow and eliminated the opponent's general, completely changing the tide of battle.
It can be said that the winner and loser of this war chess game is the application of assassins!
In the observation room of the Imperial Academy, Rogge kept seeing the last second of Bai Bing's victory before he breathed a sigh of relief and said behind him: "Secretary Fengyue, tell the Ministry of Magic that this game should be recorded with the Philosopher's Stone in the whole process, and it will be analyzed with combat examples in the future!"
When the surrounding teachers heard Rogge's words, their expressions changed, and they all said in shock: "What? An accidental victory of a freshman not only wastes valuable magic stone records, but also uses combat power to analyze? Is it necessary?"
