Chapter 50: Draining the Last Drop of Blood
The second group of mobilized troops is gradually destroying their opponents, and they feel that the cultists are nothing more than that, and perhaps they will blow the horn of a counterattack to annihilate all these cultists.
But just as they were optimistically looking to the future, the cultist army had quietly arrived. Just as they began another round of sweeping, an endless stream of cultists popped up and drowned them all.
Under the attack of hundreds of millions of cultists, the last line of defense was lost...
Now the entire Lower Nest is under the threat of the cultists, and there is no safe place to go. Many of the inhabitants who had not had time to flee to the lower strata were mercilessly killed. Their heads were worn by cultists or built into spires.
The last few remaining factories in the lower nest were occupied and warehouses were plundered. The mobilized soldiers put up a fierce resistance, and although they had blocked the enemy several times their strength, a large number of cultists had crossed their lines and advanced deeper into the lower nest.
At this critical moment, a group of Xiachao troops rushed back, and their return was very timely. Although it is unknown whether it was a violation of military law to abandon his position and defense area without receiving an order, this move undoubtedly bought a precious respite for the Lower Hive Council. The cultists' offensive also followed.
At this time, the cultists finally went on a killing spree. Now my mind is full of "Cut!" Chop! Chop! "Kill! Kill! Kill! ”。 In the face of the troops rushing back and forth, they felt that they could do it again. So the cultist army turned around and charged the troops behind them.
After a series of killings by cultists, many people began to loot shops, warehouses, overwhelmed people on the streets, and even a large number of rioters appeared near the building of the Lower Nest Council.
The Lower Nest Council urgently dispatched the guards to maintain order, and the robbers and rioters were shot one by one. People are back to work, but the panic hasn't gone away.
The members of the Lower Nest Council were all gloomy and angry at this time. With so many cultists appearing, didn't the soldiers in front notice it, and not a single one of them informed them of the cultists' movements.
They angrily rebuked the officers at the front and told them to return to the defense immediately. The cultists have all come to the headquarters, their homes are about to be stolen, and what kind of defense area are they guarding.
In fact, it is no wonder that the officers, because although the cultists are secretly marching forward in large units, there are still many small units that are confusing the defenders. The cultists have been fighting for so long, and they have finally learned to use tactics.
It's rare for a stupid person to be smart once, and it plays a powerful role at once. No one expected that the stupid cultists would play yin, perhaps because some unknown existence secretly gave them some help.
The current defeat is difficult to change in a short period of time. The members of the Lower Nest Council have shown the reflexes and pressures that humans should have. But their hearts have long been firm, carefully grasping the steering wheel of the chariot of the lower nest, and leading the lower nest to a victorious tomorrow.
The Lower Nest Council did not change its tactics other than the military movement of the soldiers on the front line. The main policy remains an active strategic defense, but at the same time it is necessary to conduct a series of offensive campaigns in areas such as weapons factories, food processing plants, energy power plants, etc. This is their best strategy at the moment.
In addition to this, there is a difficult problem before the Parliament. That is, the soldiers who held back the large number of cultists were demoralized. They felt that they had not held the line and blamed themselves. The people of the city were also terrified. The council must make changes and act to restore morale and morale in the nest.
The Lower Nest Council held a secret meeting and decided to hold another military parade to cheer up.
The only remnants of the nest, the army used to maintain order, informed the inhabitants to assemble in the square. Residents were invited to the square to observe the military parade. Due to the secrecy in advance, these troops did not know what to do in the square, and only received a message from the "residents of the Lower Nest who wanted to know how our army was marching to the front." "Such an order.
When the next day's parade was held, everyone gathered together and felt very uneasy. The whole square can't help but produce a dull atmosphere.
When the voice of a member of the council was heard from the viewing platform: "Let our great emperor inspire you in this war". The soldiers in the square let out a deafening "For the emperor".
The parade began, and the first to be inspected were the mobilization corps, who had just come down from the battlefield. Despite their scruffy, unkempt and poorly equipped, no one laughed at them either.
It was followed by the Guards, the last remaining force in the hands of the Parliament.
At this time of life and death, these troops will go directly to the front line of the battlefield under the watchful eyes of the parliament and the people.
All military forces are fully invested, leaving no room for error. This parade was unprecedented and exciting, and the hearts of the soldiers and residents were inspired, and although victory was still far away, we will give it our all.
Both sides have gathered almost all their forces in this area, and many more troops are rushing here. The two sides fought each other in the offensive and counter-charge, and the battle was fierce and "white-hot".
Although this is the main battlefield, there are also a number of troops fighting each other in other regions. Nowadays, it is no longer clear where the front line is, or rather, there is a front line everywhere.
Even the command room of the parliament has been attacked by cultists several times. The council has formed hundreds of elite combat teams from the troops, which are responsible for guarding important targets such as command rooms, weapons factories, food factories, etc. In order to carry out a long-term guerrilla movement in the future, hundreds of secret warehouses were set up in various parts of Xiachao.
Even civilians had to make their part in the war, except for the factory workers, others had to stand guard, transport supplies, transport the wounded, etc., and this kind of combat service was guaranteed to effectively improve the combat effectiveness of the soldiers.
Fierce battles were fought between the enemy and the enemy for every house, workshop, water tower, main road, and even for a wall, a basement, and every pile of rubble. The intensity is unprecedented.
The cultists stormed the factory area and reoccupied a high ground, only to be recaptured by the Nest soldiers in the afternoon. Later battles intensified, with the two armies constantly alternating to occupy the heights. It has been repeatedly contested 13 times.
In a large grain warehouse, where the soldiers of the two armies were so close that they could even hear each other's breathing, the cultists had to withdraw from this warehouse after weeks of hard fighting.
Every house, as long as there is one Imperial soldier, even if it is only one person, must become an impenetrable fortress for the enemy.
In another part of the lower nest, a small detachment commanded by Daniel occupied one of the residential buildings of the city and put up stubborn resistance. The soldiers planted a large number of mines near the building, installed machine guns in the windows, and opened the basement partition wall to facilitate communication. This is to be used as a temporary command post to dispatch multiple teams around it.
A large force of the cultists broke through to a gap in the nearby defensive line, and the situation was critical, and it would take a long time for the nearest main force to arrive. As a result, a thousand recruits near the gap in the defensive line were urgently called up by Daniel to fill in the holes.
Although they have only been soldiers for less than ten days. But in a critical moment, they can only be put on the front line, and they must attack the enemy without heavy weapons or even food.
Daniel, who was in charge, saw the soldiers with a telescope on the roof of a residential building, and he couldn't help but burst into tears: he had pinned down the enemy for another day.
This moment makes it difficult to suppress emotions, the lives of more than two thousand young people are as short as moths, and they can only calculate the survival time in days, and in order to defend the empire, they shed their last drop of blood.
