Chapter 1575: Offensive and Defensive (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
The staff officer respectfully spread out a map in front of Lester, who touched a handful of white beards, looked at an oval area above, and said with some embarrassment: "This range is still a bit large. ”
Lord Lorraine spread his hands helplessly and said: "No way, the enemy is deep underground after all, if we can be directly above, we can still accurately locate the enemy's position." ”
Lester gave him a blank look, he knew very well that this was simply impossible, and the outside of the fortress was now full of monsters. And who knows how many lichs are hidden in the night?
If you take the risk to go to probe, it will definitely be a meat bun beating a dog and there is no return.
"If you find it difficult, why don't I find a few more people?" asked Lorraine cautiously.
Lester was suddenly furious, glared at Lorraine fiercely, and was very angry that Lorraine doubted his ability, and shook his hand and said, "No, you just watch." ”
Lord Lorraine smiled bitterly: This old man belongs to a donkey, and it will never work to speak well, and he has to use some agitation when necessary.
Lester looked down at the map again, raised his head and raised his staff to gesture outside the camp, roughly measuring the place where he started.
Then he nodded, and flew lightly into the air, waving his staff towards the south.
The four ** masters glanced at each other, followed him closely, and rose into the air, looking around, and on the ground, several cardinals condensed their holy arts, ready to strike at any time.
When a mage casts a spell, he is extremely vulnerable to enemy attacks. They did this to give Lester ** and keep him safe.
When the staff in Leist's hand danced, Lord Lorraine, who was on the ground, suddenly felt a strong wind blowing.
Even if he wasn't a mage, he could feel a powerful force slowly gathering above his head.
There was a faint sound of wind and thunder in the air, the sound was low, as powerful and shocking as the muffled thunder in the clouds.
Lorraine looked up, and a visible cyclone was circling Lester at a rapid pace.
In the wind, the robes of the forbidden spell wizard flew and fluttered, and the hair of ** swayed with the wind, looking from afar as if the gods had descended to earth.
This is the first time Lorraine has seen the old man go all out.
Lester's battle for fame was the forbidden spell 'Frozen World' that was cast at the Maple Leaf Danlin.
Although the forbidden spell buried tens of thousands of Almohad's troops in one go, that night, the old man was hidden in the clouds, and no one saw his furious and mighty posture.
Although no one has seen it, there are many works of art in the Maple Leaf Danlin that describe Lester casting forbidden spells, such as the reliefs on the walls of the Maple Leaf Danlin, the large oil paintings hanging in the mage academy, and the illustrations of various designated extracurricular reading materials published by the academy...... And so on and so forth.
In the depiction of those pictures, Lester is portrayed as majestic and impressive, like Zeus who is in charge of thunder and lightning.
However, there is still a gap between the image of oil painting and the real posture, and no matter how vivid the image is, it cannot depict the real momentum.
And at this moment, Lester stood in the air, revealing a domineering spirit that reigned over the world.
This is a super strong man who stands at the top of the spell world.
It's not the stingy old man who loves face.
There was a slight tremor from beneath his feet, as if there had been an earthquake, and the stones on the ground were rolling in all directions.
After a few breaths, the tremor coming from the ground grew stronger.
Lorraine could clearly feel that the tremor had turned into a shaking from side to side, no different from a real earthquake.
The lord couldn't help but glance at Lester in mid-air worriedly, and said secretly in his heart: This old gentleman can't play too much, really caused an earthquake, right?
The shaking became stronger and stronger, and the people on the ground had to hold on to the things around them to fix themselves in case they fell, and Lord Lorraine was worried that if he continued to shake like this, his semi-underground warehouses would not be able to stand it first.
Not far to the south, there was a crisp sound of "clicker", and the sound seemed to be the sound of icebergs breaking that Lord Lorraine had heard before.
Through the white light of the flares, Lorraine could faintly see a narrow crack suddenly appear on the ground outside the camp.
The crack of the black sè was like a mouth cracked in the earth, writhing and extending outward, from the front of the fortress wall to the darkness of the distance, until it was gone.
Around the crack, a large group of monsters were fleeing backwards in a hurry, apparently smelling danger.
It was as if a giant was pulling there, and the crack was slowly widening at a speed visible to the naked eye.
At the edge of the cresm, countless rocks shook and fell. Puffs of ash and dust erupted from the cracks, like erupting volcanoes.
Immediately, countless death-knell beetles crawled out of the crack and fled backwards as quickly as possible.
When the width of the crack reached about one meter, the ground on both sides of the crack suddenly cocked, instantly raised half a meter, made a loud "click" sound, and then smashed back with a low roar.
Lorraine could feel the ground jump suddenly, and the gray dust flew in the sky, like a cháo water several meters high, completely blocking the view of the southern part of the fortress.
When the dust slowly dispersed, I saw a long crater suddenly appear in the same place, two meters wide and more than one meter deep, like a river ditch. The strange rocks on both sides of the ditch are jagged, and the dog's teeth are jagged, which is daunting.
Everyone inside the fortress couldn't help but let out an exclamation.
I used to hear about the power of the forbidden spell master, but I didn't expect him to be so powerful, just waving his hand, the earth shook the mountains, and the mountains and rivers changed. It's really impressive.
At this time, the wind around the fortress slowly stopped, and Rest's robe fluttered, slowly landing from the air - although he still had strong mana to continue to use, but after all, the enemy situation was unknown, and no one knew how many high-ranking lich were watching him in the dark.
Therefore, he must have enough spare strength to face a powerful enemy in the near future.
He fell to the ground, then brushed the placket of his clothes for a long time, and said lightly: "Okay, it's done." ”
Lord Lorraine gave a thumbs up at the moment, gestured to Leist, and said, "Well done." It is worthy of being a super forbidden spell great magician, as soon as he made a move, it was really extraordinary, extraordinary~!"
Lester immediately looked happy, then touched his beard quite modestly and smiled, waved his hand and said: "A small matter, a small matter......
Although what he said was light, but with the light in the camp, Lorraine clearly saw that the old man's old face was slightly red, and he didn't know if he was embarrassed to be slapped by his own sycophants, or if he had spent too much effort in the spell just now?
After Lester cast the spell, the monsters were frightened and hid even further.
Therefore, although the entire barracks were all waiting for the day, the whole night was spent peacefully.
Even so, Lord Luo is also very strange: why don't the monsters attack at night, the firepower of the defending troops will be reduced at night.
Still, it's always good that the enemy doesn't move.
After arranging the supply and defense of the fortress, Lord Lorraine wrapped himself in a cloak and lay down on the march for a while, feeling as if it had not been long before he was woken up by a rumbling burst of artillery fire - the enemy attacked again.
And the offensive is more intense than yesterday.
Around the entire No. 2 military station, the black swarm of insects rushed up from all directions, and hit the wall of the No. 2 military station in waves.
Obviously, the commander hiding behind couldn't bear it.
The pace of the battle was the same as yesterday, with the swarm charging and then long-range fire from the rear, bombarding the interior of the fortress.
The allied war fortresses rushed to bomb, and the fighter groups intercepted the enemy's flying insects.
For a while, you came and went and I were very lively.
Bugs rushed up in batches, and the coalition greeted them with a frenzied rain of bullets, and then killed them all in batches.
Large swaths of insect corpses were set ablaze by the fire.
The flames of the sky once again surrounded the entire fortress, and black smoke rose into the sky like a dragon, twisting incessantly with the north wind, almost obscuring the entire sky.
Under the dusk sky, the flames and smoke were billowing into the sky, the insects were charging like cháo water, the cannonballs that staggered in the sky, the huge nets of fire woven by machine guns, the fire when the shells exploded......
From a distance, the whole scene is like a killing battlefield in hell.
When Lorraine was patiently observing the battlefield with a telescope, an old voice suddenly came from behind him, saying: "Bugs are bugs, a group of simple-minded guys, they can't play some new tricks, make my old man happy." ”
Lorraine turned around, only to see Lester Jīng coming over, although he had only rested for a few hours, but the old man was very good.
After his old man showed his might last night, the soldiers who witnessed it were shocked. Worship this old man as if he were a god.
It turns out that everyone knows that this old mage is very powerful, and only now do they know what kind of powerful method it is, no matter where the Archmage of Lester goes, he can gain admiration and reverence, instead of two bastards like Lorraine and Leo, who are one big and one small, who always disrespect his old man.
This made his old man very satisfied.
Lorraine couldn't be pleased, and said, "Simple, although this tactic is simple, it works precisely because it is simple."
Do you think the number of enemies today has decreased compared to yesterday?"
Lester paused for a moment, then stared intently at the battlefield for a moment, and then shook his head: the monsters that surrounded the entire fortress were still black and oppressive, with no end in sight.
Lorraine patiently explained: "The enemy has absolute numerical superiority. One day, two days, three days, five days, we can go down. But if it's a month, two months, or even half a year, do you think we can keep them at bay?"
Lester imagined in his mind the scene of fighting in the fortress for two months, and his face sank suddenly.
Although the human alliance has completely entered the age of firearms, the soldiers are all tense and cannot support the high-intensity war for long.
Even if all the soldiers are not exhausted or driven insane by the end, the coalition will run out of ammunition, and the War Fortress will run out of energy hedrons.
In continuous high-intensity all-out combat, the production and transportation of ammunition and energy cannot keep up with the rate of consumption.
Although the human race is extremely powerful, the tactics of the insect are like a huge grinding plate, consuming the human soldiers and materials little by little.
Lester frowned, realizing that he had thought things simple, and said, "Since you know that you can't consume the enemy, aren't you sending everyone to death?"
For bugs, killing three million of them is no different than killing five million. ”
Lorraine shrugged his shoulders slightly, and said, "If you don't put it here, do you put it in the sailfish camp, wait for the monsters to push us all into the sea, and then take root in the wasteland?"
"Uh......" Lester thought for a moment, and had to nod his head in acknowledgment of Lorraine's words.
"And defensive warfare is not just about passive defense. Lord Lorraine paused for a moment and continued: "A principle in war, not to defend an isolated city.
No matter how many soldiers, no matter how well fed, no matter how well prepared, an isolated city is a cage, and there will always be a day when it will be taken down, and the Caribbean is an example. ”
Lester stroked his beard thoughtfully, nodded and said, "It seems that you have a plan in mind." ”
Lord Lorraine showed a confident smile and said, "Is it a war, it is troublesome to say that it is troublesome, it is difficult to command hundreds of thousands of people and find opportunities to win on the ever-changing battlefield."
But it's actually very simple, abide by a few principles, not be timid, and not be arrogant. ”
×××××××
Archduke Julius watched the battlefield on the ground from the air, and when he first saw the insects covering the entire land, he was also startled, worrying about how it was possible to kill so many monsters.
But after seeing too much, I became numb.
At this moment, the war fortress is flying slowly in the air, monitoring the battlefield on the ground.
Archduke Julius touched his shaved chin and said, "You say, this kid from Lorraine can't stop it alone?"
The staff officers behind the Grand Duke couldn't help but glance at each other, muttering in their hearts, not knowing how to answer.
Everyone knows that Lord Lorraine has always been able to scold the Grand Duke himself, and if anyone really takes the Grand Duke's words of scolding Lorraine seriously and dares to say bad things about Lord Lorraine in front of the Grand Duke, it is too too young, too simple.
The next day, he had to be transferred to the death squad attacking Samarkand.
said that Lord Lorraine couldn't stop it, it was not to underestimate Lord Lorraine, but to underestimate the eyes of Her Royal Highness Princess Catherine, the most beloved daughter of Archduke Julian.
To say that Lord Lorraine can stop it is to underestimate Archduke Julius himself.
At this moment, everyone deeply felt the sadness of being a little brother. The so-called 'companion is like accompanying the tiger', which probably refers to the current mood.
In the end, the Grand Duke's personal guards relieved everyone and said, "With Your Highness here, the Lord will definitely be able to defeat the enemy." ”
Julius nodded with a 'hmm' as if he was very satisfied with the answer, and said, "Send a message to the ground, and you can attack when you are ready." ”
In the wasteland south of Station 2, a large army was slowly moving towards the swarm of insects surrounding the station.
On the banner at the head is an eagle with iron gray sè.
This is the number one main force of the well-known security army, the Eagle Division that has always served as a reserve mission.
The Eagle Division became famous in the Vatino, resisting more than 100,000 Semitic people with a division of more than 10,000 troops, and eliminated the corpse demons released by the lich in the middle.
not only blocked the attack of the Semites, but also closed the door and beat the dogs, capturing more than 30,000 Semitic troops trapped in the Vatino City.
Frontal battles, captured and even twice the number of soldiers who participated in the battle, forged a legend in the history of warfare.
The Battle of Vatino was also a turning point in the Battle of the Defense, which shook the continent with the Eagle Division. The glorious title of 'Defender of the Holy Land' and the honor of being able to enter and leave the Vatino with weapons may seem inconspicuous, but the significance of it is extremely important, similar to the legendary 'Sword Walk in the Temple', which can only be enjoyed by soldiers who have made great contributions to the Holy See.
Officers and soldiers up and down the Eagle Division can also add a Vatican cross to their armbands.
Behind the brilliant achievements, what makes the world most staggering is that there are only 18,000 people in the Eagle Division~!
Others can't figure out how to defeat 120,000 people with 18,000 and capture tens of thousands.
The Eagle Division is also an important deterrent in the hands of the Ruman Empire, and its effect is similar to that of the atomic bomb, which makes other countries quite fearful.
Not to mention the number of such troops, as long as there are ten divisions, the whole world combined will not be able to kill the Rumans.
There are Semitic people in the Semitic Republic who have lived through the Battle of Vatino, and they still have lingering fears about the battle in the city.
Whenever someone asked about them, they always shook their heads and sighed, and warned others not to challenge the Eagle Master if they couldn't keep their clothes wet in the rainstorm, because their bullets were even more dense than the rainstorm.
The world can see the strength of the Eagle Division, but they can't see how much effort and gold Lord Lorraine and Chairman Leo have put in and spent on the Eagle Division and the Security Army.
The soldiers of the Eagle Division are the most rigorously selected, only the children of good families who have been Ruman for generations, and they are the hardest trained, the most advanced equipment, and their tactics are even more than an era, and their natural welfare is also the best.
They are the only ones who carry out dangerous peripheral containment tasks, which can reassure Lord Lorraine that if the Eagle Master can't do it again, no one can change him.
The ground offensive soon began, and Archduke Julius assigned the few horses in the wasteland to the Eagles, who could approach the swarm on horseback, dismount to fight, and then mount and retreat.
Machine guns were also mounted on horse-drawn carriages for maneuvering.
The Eagle Division spread out in formation and divided into small units of company and platoon units to meet the front and rear
The strikers began shelling about two miles from the swarm, while the infantry continued to advance to a distance of one mile from the swarm, using rifles and machine guns to kill the monsters.
The War Fortress served as cover and fire support above the head of the Eagle Division.
The Eagle Division's initial battle did not attract the attention of the swarm, or rather the people who controlled the swarm.
The No. 2 military station is the key to determining the victory or defeat of the war.
However, with the swift and fierce attack of the eagle, it is difficult for the enemy not to pay attention to the eagle division.
The guys were like dull fruit knives, scraping a piece of flesh off the swarm. (To be continued.) )
