Chapter 433: Pre-War Deployment
On the border of the Empire, in the headquarters of the legion known as the "Fortress of the West Hammer", Alec stood on the lookout of the high-altitude fortress, looking solemnly in the direction of the Silver Pine Glade.
The weather in June was quite hot in the West Hammer Fortress, there was not a trace of wind on the vast plain in front of the fortress, and the scorching temperature made it extremely difficult for the legion warriors wearing armor to perform their defense duties, and the sweat droplets of beans kept rolling down, and the armor emitted a foul smell of sweat.
However, standing on the West Hammer Fortress, which was several kilometers long, everyone maintained the most upright posture, the swords had been sharpened into thin blades, revealing the cold light of the edge, and they were standing neatly on the fortress fortress in rows and rows, looking at the intersection of the large forest and the plain of the silver pine glade with hatred.
The hot midsummer sun is like fire, and on days when there is no wind, the silver pine woodland seems to be restless, and the lush greenery of dozens of miles and hundreds of miles begins to stir restlessly as early as twenty hours, and the trees fall to one side under a deafening earth scream, and all the trees seem to have received the rite of life for a while.
Alec knew that it wasn't the Silver Pine that separated Bilit and Westhammer Fortress that was alive, but that some species had appeared there that shouldn't have appeared.
Berserkers.
In the restless silver pine woodland, rows of dense black spots gradually came out, at first, the black spots were very small, like ants, and as time passed, the black spots gradually became larger, but they always maintained the most dense state appeared in the plains.
This was followed by a muffled gasp, thousands, gathered together like the deep roar of a demonic beast.
It was the Beastmen's legion.
Walking in the forefront were nearly 10,000 huge Wind Wolves, all of whom were neatly lined up and entered the field of vision of all Imperial warriors.
The wolf's light steps suddenly became like the hammerbones of the earth, stirring and low......
Then there were countless demonic beasts, it was a tide of beasts, they were surrounded by iron chains, peaceful and restless, and they were mixed in their hands and held black leather whips and whipped slowly......
This was followed by a dozen infantry, armoured brutal legions, massive hill giants, bipedal wyverns, scorpion aerial bands, and mammoth warbands......
As time passed, when the Beastmen Legion appeared on the plains like a tidal wave, all the Imperial warriors of the West Hammer Fortress invariably clenched their swords in their hands......
Nervousness, anger, restlessness, panic...... All emotions spread wildly and rapidly......
The entire 700,000 berserk orc-man legions directly and visually gave the Imperial warriors an intuitive blow.
"Claire!" Alec on the lookout let out a thunderous roar from the entire command without squinting, causing all the senior generals who were busy deploying military affairs to stop what they were doing and run towards the lookout.
When they saw the dense black dots through the window, everyone's faces turned extremely pale.
Alec's personal bodyguard Claire furrowed her two golden eyebrows into one, and said uneasily: "Our intelligence is wrong, the Beast Terrass has brought such a demon wolf this time, so their team should remain at least one million or more, General, we have to redeploy ......"
"Let's go. ”
Alec couldn't help but speak, angrily turned around and left the lookout and returned to the headquarters, everyone followed silently, they knew that from the time the wolf cavalry army of the beastmen appeared with those hundreds of thousands of demon wolves, they would lose the protection of the balance of war, and this battle would become extremely dangerous.
Alec is a qualified legion commander, with outstanding talent in military deployment and defense command, but this does not offset the numerical advantage of the Berserk Legion, if Alec is still confident that he will be able to defeat 700,000 berserkers back to his lair when the knights of the neighboring country arrive and make the military strength of the Tianfeng Empire reach 400,000 warrior reserves, then when the hundreds of thousands of demon wolves appear, even Alec is not sure whether he can win the war.
He had to redeploy his defenses......
"Claire, let the 50,000 archers dismount and join the archer battalion, and give me all the city walls. Alec used his baton to make a circle on the huge sand table.
"The berserkers brought hundreds of thousands of demon wolves this time, which is an absolutely devastating blow to us, they will continue to use the tactics of breaking the city first and then slaughtering, the first key is the vanguard wolf cavalry regiment, they will unite the brutal legion and the demon wolf war group to protect the mammoth beast to approach the fortress, the first step in the siege of the city is to repel our army's Iron Cross Legion, Silver Wing Knights, Tomahawk Legion, Honor Guardian Regiment, Round Shield Legion, the first step is the key, our main corps is prepared to destroy the opponent's heavy siege weapons, we must not let the mammoth beast get close to the five main legions, Claire, you order, let the five main legions retreat five miles, keep the queue neat, I want to let them enter the range of the magic crystal cannon, use the first wave of blows to destroy their main formation, and create the most powerful opportunity for the twenty sneak attack squads. ”
After hearing this, Claire's face changed: "General, the magic energy reserve of the magic crystal cannon only allows us to carry out two magic energy strikes, we will use it once at the beginning, what will we do later?"
Alec said with a solemn face: "No way, the number of berserk beastmen is far superior to ours, if we can't carry out heavy suppression in the first wave, the mad beasts and demon wolves will turn into a tide and drown us, if we let the mammoth beast approach the fortress, our legion will not be able to exert its full combat strength, I would rather lose the magic crystal cannon than let the mammoth beast approach the fortress." ”
The crushing ability of the Mammoth Behemoth has always been a nightmare for the Nine Legions of the Empire, and in the decades of dealing with the Beastmen, Alec knows too well the strength of the Mammoth Warband, although there are not many of them, but once they are allowed to kill the military team, it will definitely be an extremely terrifying nightmare for all Imperial warriors.
"Where's the captain of the waiting guards? Is there a battle report from the front? I want to know the exact number of the Mammoth Warband?" Alex suddenly exclaimed.
All eyes in the hall looked behind them, and at this time, an officer in simple trivia armor stood up and said loudly: "Your Excellency, the waiter in front has already ascertained the number of mammoth warbands, and the berserkers have sent a full thirteen mammoth beasts this time. ”
"Thirteen?" everyone gasped in unison.
The standard equipment of the Mammoth Warband is nine to ten mammoth beasts, and this time there were thirteen, and for Alec, the news was more than just a nightmare.
A mammoth beast definitely has the power of 10,000, and their main use is not just to kill, but more to destroy the main battle formation of the legion without pressure, once the formation is destroyed, the follow-up combat power cannot be brought into play.
It's like a fist, it has strength when it is clenched, and if someone forcibly breaks five fingers, what power is there?
Although there were only two more than expected, they were devastating to the Imperial Legion, and these two mammoth beasts could be the key to the final victory of the entire war.
And Alec knew that it was too late to send people out, and the twenty sneak attack and assassination squads were based on the fact that two squads were in charge of one mammoth behemoth, and now that there were three more, it would be difficult to deal with.
Claire looked at Alec firmly, and suddenly said, "General, I am willing to lead the guard regiment to take charge of one." ”
Everyone looked at Claire in unison, everyone knew that his guard group had only one job, and that was to be responsible for protecting General Alec, so the number of guards was extremely limited, only a hundred, although the threshold for entering the guard group was higher than that of the sixth-level war division without consideration, but it was still a little weak to let these hundred people go out to attack the mammoth beast.
But at this time, Alec didn't have time to think about it, he nodded heavily and patted Claire on the shoulder: "The empire will always remember you." ”
Claire said: "For the sake of the empire, for the Yuanshi, for the general, Claire is duty-bound." ”
Alec nodded, frowning, "There are two more." ”
At this moment, more than a dozen people walked into the headquarters, and one of them, a well-dressed middle-aged man with an extraordinary bearing, said loudly: "The Marton family can be in charge of one." ”
"Holo?" Alec raised an eyebrow, a look of ecstasy.
"Alec, give me the last one. As soon as Alec's gaze turned to him, he looked at another old man beside Holo and stepped forward, he was none other than Kane, the vice president of the War Spirit Academy.
For the sake of the empire, this border war affected not only the West Hammer Fortress, but also tens of millions of people in the empire, involving the honor and disgrace of the empire, and all aspects contributed all their strength.
The addition of the two top war spirits has brought back a 10% chance of victory in this war of superior superiority and inferiority.
"Thank you. Alec gave a sincere knightly salute.
Then his gaze returned to the sand table, among the people present, Vice Dean Kane and the patriarch of the Marton family, Holo, as a new sneak attack team, they have extremely strong strength, and Claire's guard group also joined, so that together with the sneak attack assassination team arranged before, it formed a perfect pattern for the mammoth monster warband.
After re-deploying, Alec really announced: "Pass the order, tell the sneak attack team, use the magic crystal cannon as the order, and go all out to defeat the mammoth warband, whether this battle is won or lost, it depends on them." ”
As time passed, the sun had reached the center of the sky, and the heat of midday did not make the Imperial warriors even a little sleepy, but only a few hours later in the great battle that was unfolding, unusually silent and silent.
The countdown to the big war, with seven hours to go, will be on the verge of breaking out......
