Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Transformation of the Heavenly Union (II)
In a blink of an eye, ten days have passed, the operation of the Heavenly Union has become smoother and smoother, and the plans formulated by Wang Ping are being carried out in an orderly manner.
After a series of integrations, the production efficiency has been significantly improved. In ten days, a total of 30,000 swords, 30,000 tower shields, and 30,000 sets of battle armor were produced, and a magic array was engraved on each piece of equipment. The weapons are engraved with a fire-based magic array "Fire Blade Array", which increases the attack power by about 30% and the ability to break the defense by 15%, and has a certain chance to release a primary magic - "Fireball Technique" to attack the enemy. The tower shield is engraved with the earth-based magic array "Thick Armor Array", which increases the defense power by about 20%. The battle armor is engraved with the water-based magic array "Moist Array", and the recovery of physical strength is accelerated by 30%.
In order to raise the popularity of the products of the Heavenly Trade Union, Man Yi gave 30,000 swords and 30,000 sets of battle armor that can equip a division to Prince Yude free of charge. After receiving this batch of equipment, Prince Yude immediately transported it to Nara Castle in the eastern Kana Province of the Beast God Empire.
Nara Castle and the Dragon Empire's Tower Hill Fortress are far away, with a plain terrain in between. From time to time, the armies of the orcs sent out from Nara Castle to attack the human fortress of Tashan. Tower Hill Fortress is located at the northernmost point of the Dragon Empire's border, backed by the Malaya Mountains, less than two hundred kilometers to the south is another fortress of the Dragon Empire, Fancheng Fortress, and a hundred kilometers behind it is Songshan Fortress, the second barrier of the Dragon Empire.
Nara Castle is home to the Twenty-First Legion, the Twelfth Legion, and the city defense of one legion of the Orcs. The 21st Legion is a C-type legion that does not have many strong fighting races, and the strongest fighting force is a werewolf brigade, and the rest also have two minotaur brigades and six pig-faced brigades. In the battle with the humans of Tower Hill Fortress, his performance has been unsatisfactory, and he has been ridiculed many times by his comrades in the 12th Legion, who are stationed at Nara Castle.
The commander of the 21st Legion, the fox orc, Sato Hoto, has always been helpless, and because he offended the generalissimo of the empire, Onodera Three Points, he was demoted to the 21st Legion stationed at Nara Castle as the commander. Commanding such a legion with little combat effectiveness, Sato really has nothing to do. The combat effectiveness of the werewolf brigade is undoubted, but with only one brigade, 10,000 people is too small to carry out large-scale military operations.
Although the minotaurs are not afraid of death when they fight, they are all tendons, and they only know how to rush forward, and they do not know how to use tactics. Not to mention those pig-faced people, there are not enough successes and more than failures. If it weren't for Prince Yutoku's constant support for him, he really didn't plan to stay at Nara Castle. In order to live up to Prince Yutoku's high expectations, Sato could only grit his teeth and insist, digging out his heart to train the soldiers of the 21st Army, hoping that one day he would come and make some achievements, which would not only repay Prince Yutoku, but also make Generalissimo Onodera Sano's face gloomy.
So when Sato received the equipment sent by Prince Yutoku, he knew his chance had come. Along with this batch of equipment, there was also a handwritten letter from Prince Yude, which said that this is the latest type of magic equipment, which has just been produced and is still in the verification stage. This time it was delivered to Nara Castle to test the role it could play in actual combat.
Sato immediately sent a letter back to Prince Yutoku, expressing his gratitude. Then the units of the 21st Army Corps were quickly summoned for a change of outfit.
The werewolf brigade of the 34th Brigade is definitely going to change its outfit, and Sato only has this good card in his hand. However, Sato decided that they would not change until the end, and it was up to them to train those who did not want to improve. As for how to select two brigades from the two Minotaur brigades and the six pig-faced brigades to replace them with new equipment, Sato already had an idea.
Looking at the 34th Brigade with a well-groomed appearance, Sato was still very satisfied. Looking at the 35th and 37th Brigades' Minotaur Brigades, Sato could only shake his head helplessly. After such a long period of careful training, these two brigades can be said to have made great progress. However, compared to their own expectations, it is still not so satisfactory. In this way, the minotaur is too dead-eyed, no matter what the situation, he blindly buries his head and rushes, and actually uses his body to shake the rolling wood and stone thrown by the humans. I don't know if I should praise them for their bravery or for being stupid!
The six pig-faced brigades are standing on the school ground at the moment, and they still look pretty good. One by one, their heads held high and full of energy. But Sato knew that when they really arrived on the battlefield, these bastards were afraid of death one by one, and they all desperately hid behind, but they refused to rush forward. If only they could be as brave as the Minotaurs!
Thinking of this, Sato said to the three division commanders and nine brigade commanders on the parade platform: "You have all seen that there is a new type of magic equipment that can equip a division and regiment under the stage. As for which of you can get it, it's up to you to do it. ”
The twelve senior officers under Sato Yasuto looked at the neatly arranged large boxes under the parade platform in confusion, not knowing what kind of new magical equipment he was talking about. For a while, no one said a word.
Seeing that no one was silent, Sato waved his hand and asked his guards to carry a hundred sets of equipment to the parade platform.
"Commander of the Miyagi Brigade, your werewolf brigade is the strongest in combat, you pick a squadron to come out and accompany them to practice. Sato commanded to a werewolf brigade commander.
"Yes!" the commander of the Miyagi Brigade agreed, turned around and walked off the parade platform, ready to go.
"Which of you would like to challenge the werewolf squadron with new equipment?" Sato asked, glancing around at the remaining division and brigade commanders.
Hashimoto, the commander of the 10th Division, and the two brigade commanders of the 35th and 36th brigades under him did not say anything. The Werewolf Brigade was subordinate to the 10th Division, and the 35th and 36th Brigades were under the command of Hashimoto. Hashimoto didn't speak, and the two brigade commanders didn't dare to stand up.
Seeing that no one stood up to fight, Sato's face was a little difficult to look at. said angrily to these people: "A group of waste, they don't even have the courage to challenge their own people, what's the use of the empire raising you, it's better to go home and take the children!"
Seeing that Sato was angry, these people behaved differently. Hashimoto and his two subordinates didn't react, just like what Sato said had nothing to do with them. The commanders of the other two divisions bowed their heads and said nothing, simply not looking at Sato. The commanders of the Pig-Faced Man Brigade hid behind the commander of their division, looking at Sato tremblingly, lest he would call him by name.
Only the other Minotaur brigade commander, Akagi, couldn't stand anymore and had already begun to gasp for breath. His boss saw that something was wrong, and reached out to pull him, but he broke free. Walking up to Sato, he gave a military salute and said, "Commander, our brigade is willing to challenge them!"
His boss glared at him angrily next to him, thinking in his heart, when will it be your turn to fill the head, aren't you looking for bad luck, challenging those wolf cubs, are you impatient?
"Okay! As long as you can defeat the werewolf squadron of the 34th Brigade, I will promote you to the commander of the 11th Division, taking Matsui's place. Someone was finally willing to stand up, and Sato finally breathed a sigh of relief. However, seeing that Matsui, the commander of the 11th Division, was unwilling to come forward and did not let his subordinates come out to challenge, Sato felt a fire in his belly. Don't you think I can't cure you? If you don't listen to me, you'll be fucked out sooner or later! The orc army was destroyed by you people!
Matsui was not only choked by Akagi's anger, but he was even more annoyed when he heard Sato's words. When did the Minotaur be able to defeat the werewolves? If those stupid hillbillies could defeat the werewolves, the beast gods would have made the humans and demons submit a long time ago, so let me see how the two of you play out this play! No matter who wins or loses, I can participate in a book in front of the generalissimo.
Akagi ran down the parade platform in two steps, returned to his brigade, and selected the squadron with the strongest combat effectiveness to come to the parade platform. He took off all the equipment he was wearing, put on new armor, picked up his new sword, and walked to the side of the school yard with neat steps.
At the other end of the school field, the werewolf squadron was lined up, waiting for their opponent to arrive.
With Miyagi and Akagi giving orders, the werewolf squadron and the minotaur squadron began to charge at each other.
As a C-type legion, the equipment of the 21st Legion is too shabby. Even the most combat-ready werewolf brigade in the legion, they only wore a simple and light leather armor, which could only protect the upper body. The sword in his hand was also an old-fashioned bronze sword, not even equipped with a shield. From this, we can see why the 21st Army is low in combat effectiveness and why Sato feels helpless. Without weapons and equipment, no matter how good a soldier is, he will not be able to exert his due combat effectiveness, let alone these soldiers who are not very strong in the first place.
The two groups of soldiers were approaching rapidly, and the unique surname of the werewolf made them not care about the change of the other party's equipment, and still held the weapons in their hands and rushed forward.
The minotaurs are simple-minded, they only remember the words of the brigade commander and will use all their strength to defeat these werewolves.
Finally, the two teams collided head-on, and the sound of metal crashing "ping-pong" continued. The werewolf fiercely swung the bronze sword in his hand and slashed wildly at the minotaur, ignoring his own defense.
Although the minotaurs are simple-minded, they have strength. Coupled with a spirit of refusal to admit defeat, they are never afraid to fight any enemy. Even in the face of the tiger and lion among the beasts, they dare to resist head-on. If their minds were a little more flexible, they could be good fighters.
When the werewolf's sword slashed at the minotaur's tower shield and battle armor, they clearly felt the difference. A tremendous force of shock passed through the sword back to their hands holding their weapons, shaking their hands with a faint pain. And the opponent's tower shield and battle armor did not leave a trace of it. If it doesn't work once, then continue. The werewolf soldier's swords rained down on the minotaurs, hoping to break through their defenses.
The werewolf's frantic attacks also made the minotaurs irritable, their eyes reddening and their mouths gasping for air. Shielding his body with a tower shield, the minotaur swung his sword and collided with the werewolf.
At this time, the gap in equipment was revealed, and the bronze sword of the werewolf slashed on the armor of the minotaur, which had no effect, and no matter how they attacked, they could not cause damage to the minotaur.
And the minotaurs also have a different feeling, they feel that the werewolf's attack has become weak and weak, and there is no threat at all, but their own attack has become stronger, and even the consumption of physical strength is much smaller than usual. The werewolf's sword slashed at the tower shield and did not feel it. Slashed on the armor, it only shook a little, and there was no pain.
As time passed, the speed and power of the werewolf squadron's attacks began to decline, and even their stoic surnames could not hold it up. The werewolf squadron leader who led the team was full of helplessness, attacking, unable to attack. Guard, not thorough. The thin leather armor has been divided into pieces, and the better ones can still resist it, and the slower ones are already covered in blood.
The squadron leader roared: "Brothers, let's fight! We can't let the minotaurs defeat us!"
