Chapter 30, the eastern suburbs shock, the first actual combat
The daily special training makes my independent regiment stronger and stronger, and with the increase of the daily training tasks, a large number of people have directly begun to upgrade, because my training method allows the soldiers to improve their strength and efficiency, and on the seventh day, I finally ushered in a big man - Li Gang, Minister of Military Aircraft.
In my impression, this should be the kind of person with a big belly, but I didn't expect that this Minister of Military Aircraft turned out to be a sturdy double man, who looked about the same age as Yan Wuving. I took him to my tent and asked Ouyang Qianxun to serve him a cup of tea, and after a polite turnover, he directly explained his intentions: "Yesterday, all the mutant creatures in the eastern suburbs began to become dishonest, and at first they were just sporadic mutant scorpions and mutant giant bears "doing things" at the pass , But early this morning, there was a sudden shocking change, these damn monsters rushed to the pass desperately, and they had broken through the defense line three times, if it weren't for the long guard line, it would have been lost in the morning, so the defense line over there was in an emergency, just before I came, I had received three consecutive calls for reinforcements, but now the regular army except for the Wangcheng Janissake, all at the border, so ......"
"So you want me to go for reinforcements?" I said.
"Yes, two thousand recruits were sent over to assist in the defense last night, but just now, they said that they had suffered heavy losses, in fact, Old Man Yan strongly recommended you to me before, saying that you are enough to deal with. But I think you're too few people, so ......," he said.
"So, what about Old General Yan?" I actually don't understand, isn't it better for him to come on his own in this matter?
"The guards at the pass found that there were demons in the eastern suburbs, and Old Man Yan had already taken 500 soldiers to investigate. He said. After speaking, he took out the letter that General Yan gave me.
I took it and opened it, and it wrote: "Forget your feelings, this time the matter is not simple, I suspect that the demons have something to rely on, I don't worry about others going, if the eastern suburbs pass is lost, I will go directly to the royal city to be safe, you give me three days, hold on for three days." Remember, don't trust anyone. If I don't make it back, you give this map to Chu Yu, the prince of Jingguo in Wangcheng, and he knows what to do. "I just realized that there is a map under the letter, this is not the key, the point is that I saw a red mark on the map - it is indicated that it is the Stone of Wood, the True Fire Void Sealing Land.
I was a little nervous when I saw this, the wood stone is really hot, and it feels very familiar. I thought about it, didn't I get a Void Teleportation Scroll when I completed the first main quest in the Elven Forest before?
So, what's the connection? I always thought that the Void Sealing Land was on the Elven Forest, but I didn't expect that I would use it when I came to the human area.
"Ding, the side quest opens. Task 1 - Pass Defense: Rush to the eastern suburbs within 40 minutes to support. And hold the eastern suburbs of the Yantian Empire for three days to prevent the invasion of mutant monsters. Rewards: Obtain the allegiance of Wang Jin, a remnant of the Protoss, and obtain a World Core Clue. Mission failure penalty: 100 random loss of soldiers, 1 battalion commander. Task 2, Crisis within the Royal City: Protect the King and Important Ministers, Quest Requirements, Defend against the Assassination Organization of the Lingfeng Kingdom to assassinate the King and important Ministers. Rewards: Rank up three levels and gain 3,000 points of national prestige. The mission failed, the king was wounded, three important ministers were lost at random, and the country's strength dropped by thirty percent. ”
Wang Jin: I suddenly remembered that this was the captain of the guard at the eastern suburbs pass. He also gave me a seal of the gods. I didn't expect to meet it again so soon, and besides, I still went to the rescue. Thinking about the problem of Zuixiang Mansion before, I wonder if this will have something to do with Ling Fengguo.
Thinking of this, I was not interested in listening to the words of the Minister of War and Aircraft, so I hurriedly gathered all the soldiers in my battalion, and asked Hongyu to help me inform the people of the assassination battalion to come back and secretly protect the king and a few important people.
This rallying horn is no longer the usual training rally, but a war horn. As soon as the horn sounded, the entire independent regiment immediately put down the training in their hands and gathered at the training ground. I had already stood on the platform and waited for them, everyone was all there in about five minutes, and I used my spiritual power to shout: "I received the actual combat mission, the mutated monsters in the eastern suburbs are coming, we need to defend the eastern suburbs pass for three days, are you afraid?"
"Don't be afraid, swear to defend the territory to the death. The neat voice made the Minister of War and Aircraft nod for a while.
"I'll give you five minutes, change into your actual combat equipment, and come and assemble. We will reach the eastern suburbs pass in half an hour. Then everyone quickly went to change their equipment.
"Forget your feelings, can you get there in half an hour?" said the Minister of Military Aircraft with some concern.
"If you can't make it, you have to get there. Human lives matter. "I'm anxious about Wang Jin's safety, after all, a descendant of the Protoss, as long as I succeed in defending this time, I will have an extra high-end combat power, and I can't fail anything...... As for the king and the ministers, I think it shouldn't be a big problem to have the Praetorian Guard plus all the assassins in my assassination battalion. These girls have been fighting every day for the past few days, but they are not blind in vain. Almost all of them have been upgraded to level 60, and Xie Xian'er has reached level 65.
Five minutes later, I hurried out of the camp with my soldiers and set out straight for the eastern suburbs. "What's going on? How did the independent regiment change into actual combat equipment? Is this going to war?" asked the camp gate when two guards who had come to change the guard asked.
"Yesterday afternoon, two thousand people went out. It's also real combat equipment, and it's a war that happened. "Another humane.
"May they return safely. The four of them prayed together.
As I walked, I contacted Hongyu and asked her to explain that the assassination camp should be fast. Then he hurried the march again. At this time, our speed has exceeded the average speed of our usual training, because I am worried that something will change, and Yan Wuving's sentence not to trust anyone makes me very worried. So this time I brought Chef Wang with me, after all, I have to keep it for three days. I don't dare to eat other people's food.
This exhausted him, for he was so fat that he could not carry him half the horse, so he had to run after us. His speed can't keep up with us at all. There was no choice but to let a small team of 10 people escort him later, and we would go first.
It took about 40 minutes, and finally arrived, and at this time, there were still more than 500 meters away from the pass, but I could already hear the screams of killing, and from time to time I heard the screams of soldiers and the roars of monsters, which made my mood heavier and heavier. It seems to be more serious than what the Minister of War and Aircraft said.
I quickened my march again, and soon came to the pass line, and found a poisonous scorpion and a giant bear as far as the eye could see, mixed with some tiger-like monsters with a blood-red glow, I guess this should be the caracal that Fan Hunter told me before. But these caracals are all mutated. I saw that these caracals emitted a fireball-like skill from their horns from time to time, and basically everyone who was hit would lose their ability to fight. At this time, I didn't see the Ning Wei in the previous pass, all the soldiers and archers in the new battalion were all in total, and the total number of people was less than 800, and the number of warlocks was only about 300. It is long unknown when the gate was breached, and now these recruits are struggling to use people to block the gate.
"Independent regiment, give it to me, change the guard. "I mustered my spiritual power and roared. Then he took the lead and went forward. I saw Wang Jin, who was spitting blood, standing at the front, using recovery techniques to heal the seriously wounded soldiers and have them replaced, while mechanically waving his right hand to slash the monsters that rushed up.
Although the independent regiment was also the first time to fight, the previous training obviously worked. Much calmer than those who came yesterday. Under the command of Zhang Liao, the gun and shield battalion picked up the big shield in his left hand, and quickly ran up with a spear in the back half of the right hand to change defenses. The swordsman battalion, under the leadership of Chu Jian, stood behind the soldiers of the spear and shield battalion to assist in mending the sword. The Warlocks of the Warlock Camp followed, followed by the girls of the Crossbowman Camp. They had already divided into four teams and went up to the arrow tower. There is no way, now there were originally eight arrow towers, and the four outside the door have been pushed away by the mutant giant bear. However, these four arrow towers can barely stand more than 20 people. They took turns firing, and the fire never stopped.
In less than 5 minutes, the monster inside the door was cleared. So the soldiers of the Ground Gun Shield Battalion handed their spears to the swordsmen behind them, and the swordsmen carried their swords on their backs and pushed them out step by step. Spent again. After more than ten minutes, the change of defense was finally completed. It looked like the recruits who were still alive were all wounded. I sighed, after all, not our separate battalion. Because from the time we started to change our guard to the present, not a single soldier in the independent battalion has been injured. He also cleared the monster out of the door.
"Lao Wang, you are a little embarrassed. I patted Wang Jin on the shoulder, and he hissed in pain, and I realized that the right shoulder of his armor had been completely deformed.
"Excuse me, is this shoulder okay?" I apologized. Then he gave him a betel nut. shook off the blood on his hand, opened it directly and stuffed it into his mouth. said: "It's okay, I was just accidentally slapped by a bear." I didn't expect to meet again so soon. But it's a bit embarrassing. Look at my embarrassment, it makes you laugh. ”
I was surprised in my heart, this guy is a ruthless person, he was slapped in the front one by one, and he can still stand. Said: "When I heard the urgency here, I immediately rushed over. I didn't expect things to be more serious than I thought. Are you just guarding it all the time?"
"It's not, these monsters seem to be organized and disciplined, they will stop for a while, rest for a while, and then send out another attack, but it will be stronger than the previous wave. Just before you came, the arrow tower outside our pass was lost. None of my brothers ran away, and then the gate was breached. If you're 20 minutes late, you probably won't see me. After saying that, he looked outside, a look of loss. With so many dozens of guards all year round. How deep the feelings are, all of a sudden half of them are gone. But I also admire them, there were less than a hundred people, and they waited until the arrival of 2,000 reinforcements.
I was about to pat him on the shoulder again, but thinking that he was injured, I patted him on the side and said, "Leave it to me next, you can rest first." ”
But he said: "I won't rest, just now I was attacked by three caracals and two giant bears at the same time, and my internal organs have long been broken. At this moment, it's just a breath of hanging. It's better to see you again, and it's no regret, but unfortunately, I can't see what you said to take me back to my hometown. So, after I die, you burn my body, take my ashes with you, and if you have the chance, please bring me back to the divine realm. Even if we find a random place to bury it, after all, this is the dream of our ancestors. With that, he stood up again, picked up the knife that had already been curled, and prepared to fight.
I grabbed him and said, "Think beautifully, I don't want to wander around with your ashes." Go back to the divine realm alive. With that, I took out a bottle of water of life and gave it to him. This thing was given to me by the elven elf, and she said that as long as she didn't die, she could be saved. However, there are only five bottles in total, and now, it looks like one bottle will be used, but if you can get the allegiance of a Protoss descendant, it will be worth it.
"What is this?" he asked.
"You drink it first, why are you afraid that I will poison you?" I said with a smile.
"Those who are about to die are still afraid of poison, and I admit that death is in your hands. With that, he drank the water of life in one gulp. In less than a minute, a warm current flowed through the body. His eyes widened. He looked at me incredulously: "This is the ...... of life"
"That's right, that's life. I interrupted him and said, "Okay, rest and rest." Then let's get ready to build fortifications. Now it's time for me to perform. ”
Soon after I left, his internal and external injuries were all healed, and he had not moved for almost a hundred years, and he actually felt like he was going to break through. He had already turned up a storm in his heart, and thought in his heart: "If that's right, this is really the water of life, he even used such a precious thing for me, this is the water of life, something that only the elves have, and on the current continent, the elves should not have enough to produce the water of life." Even in the Protoss, internally, this thing is an extremely precious thing. This kindness can only be repaid with life. ”
So he made a decision that seemed like a big deal. But for now, you have to pass the monster level first.
And I found two recruits in charge, very raw, not the commanders I had seen in the barracks. But they knew me, and when they saw me coming, they cried out in unison: "Forget the head of the group, the grace of saving my life cannot be repaid." If you don't dislike it, you can go back and take refuge in you?"
My heart blossomed, this is a soldier who has experienced actual combat, and it is much better than a new one. Of course I agree. But he pretended to be very indifferent and said: "This matter can be discussed in the long run, let's hold it first, you rest first, and then I have a task for you." ”
"It's the captain. "The two of them actually started calling me that. I shook my head. Go to the forefront. Take out a staff that you haven't used in a long time and start casting spells. No one, including the soldiers of my own separate battalion, has yet to see my true strength. When I asked a soldier in the Gun Shield Battalion to open the defense, he didn't know why at first, but when he saw me go down with a spell, he fixed a few hundreds of monsters at the door, and then chanted for less than a second, and a large area of fire appeared on the ground in front of him, and then the thunderstorm and the fire explosion technique were thrown out like no money, and one person was about to take down the entire battlefield at the door, and everyone opened their mouths wide, and they forgot to attack. And the other soldiers, including Wang Jin, all had an open mouth expression.
I summoned my spiritual power and yelled, "What are you doing, are you all asleep?" and everyone woke up. But the Gun Shield Camp and the Swordsman Camp were all right, because a vacuum appeared in front of them, and all the monsters within 30 meters were all dead. Everyone swallowed together. "It turns out that the team is so powerful. "This is the voice of the independent regiment. "Oh my God, this is the Devil Leader of the Independent Regiment? Is he really only level 55? How does he feel more terrifying than the level 80 Grand Magister? What a devil. "This is what other soldiers think. "Not only is it righteous, but its strength is also very strong, and it seems that it is really possible to help me return to the divine realm in the future. This is Wang Jin's idea.
Outside the pass gate was a canyon-shaped terrain about 50 meters long and 20 meters wide, and I pushed the spear and shield battalion forward another 50 meters, until it was a wide area, and then stopped, my crossbowmen did not let them out, and the warlock followed the sword warriors. It's up to me to fill the gap. Then all the other soldiers, including Wang Jin's men, went to the site to quarry stones and wood, and began 20 meters outside the gate, ready to build a strong defense. I was planning to build a line of defense similar to the one on earth out of stone, and then put an arrow tower behind it. In this way, two meters are red and one is built one after another, and a total of ten lines of defense are built. Typical tower defense mode, like this, as long as the supplies are sufficient, and there are no more powerful monsters, not to mention three days, I can defend it for three years.
In addition, people were also asked to go to the royal city to apply for more armaments, of which arrows were the most important. Then I also asked the Military Aircraft Department to send 20 craftsmen over, and I had to repair the equipment on the spot. It took two hours for the arrow tower to be built first. That's when I let all the crossbowmen come out and go up to the bow tower, and the focus is on attacking the caracal. These monsters are ranged attacks, and their impact on us is much greater.
The first actual combat of the independent regiment seems to have been even better than expected.
