Magic Tide

This is the most magnificent and terrifying scene that can only appear on this frozen land that is not shrouded in holy light, and it is also the most magnificent and terrifying scene that all front-line soldiers do not want to encounter.

No one knows what the principle of the appearance of this magic tide is, in short, at a certain time, in a certain place, there will suddenly appear dense void cracks, these cracks may be far apart, and those that are closer to each other will merge together and become a more huge crack, sometimes, hundreds of cracks are piled up, and a large black hole with a diameter of several hundred meters may be formed, and those that are not fused together will also stretch out for several miles, appearing in thousands, A large number of tens of thousands of demons appeared at the same time.

This is the Magic Tide.

The empire does not have too clear regulations on the scale of the Demon Tide, but if the number exceeds 10,000 and does not reach more than four figures, it will be called a small Demon Tide.

And when the number exceeded 100,000, and the third-order demons were even more thousands, it was a medium-sized demon tide.

And the large-scale magic tide, in fact, there is no need for any quantitative regulations, after all, it is impossible for anyone to really count it, as long as you look at it, you can know that it is a large-scale magic tide.

And just a few days ago, a reconnaissance battalion in the 421 theater found a point that constantly breeds void cracks in the process of routine inspection, and in just 6 hours, nearly a thousand or so large void cracks have been fused, and the small cracks can't be counted at all, and those terrible demons who came out of the cracks are so immortal that they are just heading in the direction of the defense line of the 421 theater.

Therefore, the reconnaissance battalion immediately contacted the military base, prepared for defense, and urgently transferred a lot of support from the three nearby war zones, it is expected that within three days, this magic tide will encounter the human front-line army, and no one can know what the battle situation will be, but one thing is certain, that is. There will be countless casualties

The military train was speeding forward in the vast sea of snow, and the breaking wind cracked against the windows on both sides of the carriage, making a rumbling sound.

Wipe away the thick frost on the glass, you can see countless gunpowder smoke in the distance rising into the sky on the other side of some snow-capped mountains, the magic tide blocking battle has begun in the early hours of the morning, the military's armored regiment drove past the end of the snow-capped mountains, black and pressing, it makes people palpitate to watch, those roars are completely unable to distinguish whether it is the roar of the train's axles crushing the rails, or the distant artillery fire is exploding, in short, even if the battlefield is blocked by the snow-capped mountain, you can still feel countless armored fighting vehicles and mobile heavy artillery pouring ammunition at any cost, Sherlock stood in front of the car window, and with his ability to pick up sounds, he couldn't even tell the gap between the dense loud noises.

More than a week ago, Major General Ulysses told him that it is impossible to change the tide of war because of one person, even if there is a case in history, but there can only be one case. There will never be a second time in history after that.

Although people who have not been on the battlefield can understand this truth, they can't feel the meaning of this passage in their shoes after all, and at this moment, after seeing the picture in front of them, people can really realize what is war and what is called the torrent of steel.

A rough calculation from the armored vehicles that were faintly visible in the distance that were rushing to the battlefield could be deduced that the range of this Demon Tide Blocking Battle would be at least more than 100 kilometers, and the countless smoke clouds were like a dividing line between hell and the world, trying to illuminate the entire sky under the dim sunlight obscured by the mountains.

Nightingale looked through the window at the terrible scene in the distance, as a girl in her 20s, she should have worn gorgeous clothes in those drinking parties frequented by aristocrats, to attract the attention of other young men, and enjoy her youth in countless praises and pursuits.

And after so many years of travel and seeing all kinds of colors in this world, she may have become the 20-year-old girl with the most knowledge and psychological quality in the entire empire, but even so, she can only hold on to keep her eyes from the window, and her tightly clenched hands have long been white.

She's scared.

But she knew that the front line was there, and countless wounded were waiting for her there.

Twenty minutes later, the train stopped at the rear station of the 421 war zone, which is quite safe, but it is also relatively speaking, tens of thousands of demons cannot all be blocked, there will always be omissions in the nearly 100-kilometer battle line, and the void cracks will also appear at any time with the advance of the demon group, which leads to the defense line of the base money is also constantly being impacted by the demons.

On top of those high walls, the cannons continued to shoot out terrifying bullet rains, shooting towards the demons rushing in the distance, like golden pillars of light drawn straight into the distance, shouting sounds, and the smell of gunsmoke filled every inch of space around.

Nightingale and the accompanying medical team had just stepped off the train.

These doctors and nurses have been on the front line for a while, but after all, they have not participated in this real battlefield, and for a moment there is only fear in their eyes, and a military general who has been waiting here for a long time hurriedly ran over, habitually saluted a military salute, his eyes swept over Miss Nightingale's face, and he was stunned for a moment, and then he was awakened by a huge explosion in the distance, and immediately said solemnly:

"Thank you for coming to our war zone, and I would like to express my heartfelt respect to you on behalf of the person in charge of the base and the 110,000 soldiers who blocked the war."

After speaking, he took out a map from behind him, and didn't even have time to find a table, so he spread it out directly on the ground, which showed how anxious he was in his heart. Then point directly at a point on the map.

"An hour ago, this area was hit by a wave of void rifts that suddenly appeared, and the entire team of more than 400 people was separated from the large army, and now the support force is preparing to go to support."

After saying that, he pointed to another point on the map:

"And here, only 10 kilometers away from our base, is relatively safe, and the support troops can transport the wounded to this vicinity, and set up a temporary camp, which should be enough for treatment.

The command has divided a reinforced battalion to escort the medical team along the route, and it will be ready to go right away. ”

"How many casualties are expected to be hemorrhaged?" Watson was the most familiar with the battlefield and the most familiar with battlefield first aid in the team, so he directly asked an important question that a doctor should be most concerned about.

The greeting officer hesitated for a moment, and with years of experience, slowly uttered a number:

"At least more than 300 people."

300 people. For such a huge battle, it doesn't sound like much, but this is just a trapped squad of more than 400 people, and 70% of them are seriously wounded, in fact, this is still a very conservative number, because the dead fighters can no longer be called wounded.

The girl in front of her listened to the number given by the other party, took a few deep breaths, and forcibly calmed her heart:

"Isn't it a bit long. I don't know how many troops you've sent in to support you, but I just think it would take at least a couple of hours if those guys could hold out until the reinforcements arrived, then destroy the demons along the way, and then get back to where you just pointed.

And a person who is seriously injured and has lost blood, in low temperatures, it is absolutely impossible to last for that long. ”

Of course, the front-line officer in front of him also knew this, in this place, blood loss was an extremely terrible thing, and according to the route he had just given, at least half of the people would die on the way to the escort.

But what can be done then. This is a battlefield, and it is already great luck to have a place to provide healing, in fact, according to normal thinking, those 400 people have been sentenced to death by fate the moment they are separated from the large army.

Before he could say anything.

"Can you have the support team take us directly there, it will save a lot of time."

"No way!" The officer in front of him didn't think about it, and directly denied: "The support troops will definitely encounter the demon group, and it is impossible for anyone to care about the safety of the medical team at that time, and the time period for support is very urgent, and there is no way to bring so many people." ”

Nightingale took a few more heavy breaths, the cold wind entered her chest, making her face pale, she raised her head, looked at Watson beside her, and then at Sherlock, who still didn't seem to be energetic not far away:

"I don't need to bring the entire medical team to about 300 people for treatment, I should be able to handle it alone, and as for the escorts, it is enough for me to bring two people myself."
