My players are so fierce.

Chapter 873 872. Completely crazy! Transia brand meat grinder, you can trust it
"How is the performance of this new batch of newcomers?"

At the headquarters of the western section of the Maginot Line of Defense, Murphy sat on his chair and asked with interest. Adele, who was standing next to him fully armed and ready to attack, glanced at the calculation orb. Record, say softly:

"Just five minutes ago, the last new team sent to the front line was destroyed. The five hundred new soldiers only persisted in the trenches for one morning. Currently, there are no more than twenty people alive, although there are also battles. Intense factors, but their performance is indeed not as strong as the previously carefully selected foreigners.

Quite average in terms of adaptability and talents. "

"Well, maybe this is normal."

Murphy shrugged, looking a little regretful but not sad and said:

"There is always a difference between one in a million and one in a hundred, but this performance is already much better than that of the new recruits who went into battle for the first time. This fully proves that our heroic spirits still have a lot of potential to be tapped. In addition to them, there are no casualties among the soldiers on the battlefield. how?"

"It's still within the acceptable range."

Adele stretched out her hand and nodded on the psychic sand table shaped by the goatman spellcaster in front of her, and she said:

"Because the Jackals' military strength has not yet been deployed, the only defense line attacked this morning was the 'Nack Mine' in the east-central part. However, judging from the current situation of the Jackals passing through the filthy swamp on a large scale, the battle will occur this afternoon. The frequency will be greatly increased, but there are actually only a few terrains on this front where it is easiest to launch large-scale attacks and may be captured the fastest. Troops have been stationed in these key areas.

According to the predictions made by General Kudel's command, the war including your 'Lord's Position' will heat up in the next two days, and only then will the truly tragic casualties be revealed to you.

However, the commanders of each defense zone have made complete preparations.”

"There are no complete preparations for a war of this scale, Adele. The number of gnolls on the opposite side is more than five times that of the defenders on the defensive line, not to mention that they also have kobolds who are almost impossible to kill to help them fight."

Murphy shook his head and said:
"Although this is by no means the first time I have dealt with gnolls, when I actually sit here, I can feel the pressure that every black disaster in the past has brought to the civilized camp. The terrain in Transia is almost undefeable. It’s so terrible, maybe we need to prepare in advance.

Send an order to Miriam for me, asking her to summon militiamen from various places to assemble in the towns behind the Maginot Line of Defense now, and include these soldiers into the reserve system commanded by Kudel.

This may be the last advantage the Transians have.

The quality of the militiamen in our ghost place is comparable to the second-line regular armies in other places, so we don't have to worry about them collapsing due to lack of training when they are sent to the front line."

"boom"

Before Murphy could finish speaking, the door to the command room was pushed open, and Ms. Dorothy, the boss of the Blood Rat Gang who looked anxious, ran in with a battle report. She said hoarsely:

"My Lord Governor, something unexpected happened on the central battlefield. Just now, a group of kobolds dug into the trench through a temporary tunnel. They used a large amount of explosives to destroy a trench, and the two hundred people who were guarding it..."

"Where do they get their explosives from?"

Murphy's expression changed suddenly. He stood up and asked:
"When did the Jackals join this new tactic? Don't those guys always hate explosions and flames?"

"The explosives came from the Brass Fortress, Lord Governor."

Dorothy said seriously:
"The Silver Dwarf Priests took the risk to visit the explosion site, and they brought back the exact information. It was the explosive used by the Brass Dwarves when mining. There was also a stamp from a mining company in the Brass Fortress in the wreckage.

We cannot assess how many explosives the Jackals have in their hands, but the cunning Hugersen must have obtained this batch of supplies when the swamp advanced, but it has been suppressing it until now.

And according to the dwarf priests, the major mining companies on the Brass Dwarf side have the habit of storing large amounts of explosives at low prices to avoid market fluctuations. In addition, the Brass Dwarves have stored a large amount of explosives near the fortress in preparation for war. It’s also an astronomical figure.

If the gnolls really find the dwarves' buried ammunition depot somewhere in the ruins, we will be in big trouble. "

"Immediately send out the Thorn Nightcrawlers to detect the Jackal's explosives storage point as quickly as possible."

Murphy's brows furrowed at this moment, and he said:

"This unexpected factor that is very unfavorable to our side must be eliminated as soon as possible. Adele, inform Kudel and let him change his tactics. Ah, forget it, I am not good at commanding. The more complicated the situation, the less I can manage it.

Let him make the decision.

But in order to send a warning message to the Crimean Fortress and the Jackals possess explosives, the Invincible Wall has also become their optional breakthrough direction. All preparations for this line of defense are geared towards defending Transia. Once The Crimean Fortress was accidentally breached, and I simply couldn’t imagine what kind of rotten situation Kafhoka would become. "

Murphy never realized that he also seemed to have a gift for a crow's mouth.

Less than an hour after his warning message was sent, something happened in the Crimean Fortress.

The Jackals conducted another close-in explosion hosted by the kobolds. This time Xu Gesen used more explosives and sent more crazy "kobold artificial soldiers". They adopted a crazy strategy regardless of casualties. After the explosion, an outpost fortress in front of the Crimean Fortress was directly destroyed.

This unexpected attack direction instantly ignited the prelude to the offensive and defensive battle of the Crimean Fortress.

General Baldwin, who was caught off guard, showed the true style of a general. He did not panic because of the Jackal's tactics, but immediately mobilized his army to launch a resolute counterattack to recapture the collapsed outpost.

Although the Crimean Fortress is strong, it is only two levels deep. The result of capturing the front is absolutely disastrous.

Both sides knew that this was a "match point", so the amount of force invested exceeded the expectations of other commanders. When Lao Qin brought the Scarlet Hammer and Sickle Regiment to support, the Winter Wolf Legion in the Crimean Fortress had already been lost. There were three entire brigades with a total of 1,500 people.

The gnolls relied on the kobold servants to suffer slightly less losses, and they had already occupied the ruins of the fortress.

Everyone knew how bloody the next capture would be, but General Baldwin did not hesitate at all. Under the constant bombardment of heavy artillery, the heroic Winter Wolf soldiers almost attacked the Jackal's defense based on the ruins one after another. However, the easy defender The difficult-to-attack terrain was so difficult that Lao Qin couldn't find the right direction for support even if he wanted to help.

In desperation, Master Qin could only call for "air strike".

Under the darkness of dusk, a hundred-man Blood Vulture Vampire Bomber took off from behind the Maginot Line of Defense, and conducted a precise bombing under the guidance of the ground psychic energy of Lao Qin's close comrade, the Undead Corpse Witch Old Baldwin.

One hundred light aerial bombs were dropped in three batches, and the small outpost fortress with incendiary area was repeatedly "washed" three times with incendiary bombs. Only then was it difficult to clear out the armed kobolds on the periphery, but they wanted to completely recapture it. In the ruins of the outpost, the Winter Wolf Legion had to enter the fortress ruins that were already filled with the disgusting smell of barbecue to clean them layer by layer.

It was obviously more cost-effective to leave this kind of dangerous work to foreign heroes who were not afraid of death. General Baldwin was not stubborn this time and accepted Lao Qin's help.

The cleanup operation lasted until midnight before the recalcitrant gnolls were cleared, but neither Lao Qin nor Baldwin could laugh. The collapsed outpost in front of them represented a terrible change.

Firearms and explosives are no longer unique weapons to the civilized camp. The jackals have also illuminated such "war technology" through their "windfall". They also have kobold servants who can dig underground.

The combination of the two will bring about a scene that is enough to subvert the traditional black disaster model.

Lao Qin already had a strong uneasiness in his heart, and a few hours later, in the early morning, his uneasiness was completely detonated.

Within the entire Maginot Line of Defense, the Jackals launched no less than thirteen large and small explosions in the two hours of early morning. In conjunction with the Jackals' night march, in the early morning of the next day, the central Nak The trench position in front of the mine has been completely occupied by gnolls.

Everyone knew that the decisive battle of Maginot would be an extremely tragic war, but no one expected that the decisive battle would be so "hot" from the beginning. "We must recapture those trenches, otherwise the effect of positional bombardment will be weakened to an unacceptable level! The Jackals have also learned to use trenches to avoid bombardment, and they are using this method to weaken our firepower advantage."

After just having breakfast in the early morning, Lao Qin shouted to the entire Scarlet Hammer and Sickle group in front of him and the nearby players who had been summoned:

"The enemy is very cunning! Brothers, you all know that they have learned to use explosives, which means that we have to suffer more tragic losses to win, but at this time, the value of us undead heroes will become more prominent!

We are about to launch a determined assault into those trenches where we belong and drive the gnolls out.

I will personally lead the charge.

I know many of us already consider Transia our second home, and now, our second home needs us! "

The Hammers and Sickles are a guild made up of retired veterans in real life. They didn’t have much thoughts when facing this difficulty. They just quietly sorted out their equipment. The other players were much noisier, shouting slogans about killing the gnolls and starting from the logistics. Collect explosives and winning wine from the official.

Although the content of the mission is indeed dangerous, they obviously do not think that the Jackals can defeat them by hiding in the trenches. Many previous battles have shown that the undead heroic spirits can defeat a similar number of Jackals in close combat as long as they are determined enough in close combat. What's more, this time there are 500 People's Army soldiers fighting alongside them.

Ten minutes later, the assault begins!
Lao Qin, who was wearing an exoskeleton and brandishing a chain sword, led the troops forward. The artillery positions at the rear opened fire to cover their charge. The jackals in the trenches also howled, but they did not rush out to fight the players. Instead, they fired with a In a very meticulous way, he hid in the trench and waited for the bayonet to see red.

Seeing this scene, Lao Qin frowned even more tightly.

These bitches have really learned how to do it!
This is clearly their combat mode on the Black Flame Pass position. They stay in the trenches to avoid the enemy's firepower advantage. The enemy does not show their heads, which makes the blood vulture claws in the players' hands useless. There are also tunnel operations and approach. Explosions are all methods that players have used before.

Wow, the war talent of these bastards is truly terrifying.
No, it’s not so much the learning ability of the individual Jackals, but rather the commander of these Jackals at this time, the guy named Xu Gesen!
It is consciously learning from the enemy to add to the ancient and effective fighting methods of the jackals. If this guy is really allowed to come back alive, the civilized camp will probably have to face a group of jackals using muskets and explosives to clear the way during the next black disaster. There are gunmen and soldiers.

"puff"

A bone arrow hit Lao Qin's armor and bounced off with sparks. It did not affect Lao Qin's charge, but when he got closer to the trench, the arrow rain from the jackals became more dense, and there were many hunters. Roaring and hurling ignited Dwarf bolters from the trenches.

"Lift off! Assault!"

A cold light flashed in Lao Qin's eyes, and he activated the flight backpack of the Swift Eagle exoskeleton with a roar, causing him to jump up and hover in the air. Players with exoskeletons and vampire players took off one after another, and lowered the blood eagle claws in their hands. The burst of fire suppressed the Jackal's counterattack and created an opportunity for the brothers who rushed from behind.

It is a pity that all the elite players were transferred away by Lord Paying, otherwise the assault would only be easier.

But enough is enough for now.

"boom"

Lao Qin, who had emptied his bullets, pulled out the chain sword from behind with his backhand, adjusted his exoskeleton and plunged into the trench below. When he landed, a night-fighting eight-sided whirlwind chopped into pieces the attacking jackals, and under the cover of the veterans of the Qing Dynasty, he The next step was to charge forward along the trenches. A commando team composed of 600 players quickly restrained the Jackals in the trenches, and then the People's Army soldiers also began to charge.

The most difficult tasks are undertaken by the undead heroes, but how can they, the natives of Transia, let the brave foreigners excel?
The armored vampire lieutenant waved his sword and led the heroic soldiers into the enemy formation.

They were like a scarlet sword, tearing open the flanks of the wolf men with great sharpness and beginning to enjoy the delicious food of battle. The blood was dancing wildly, stimulating the warriors of the Blood Eagle clan to go even crazier. The wolf men in the trenches were beaten. They were retreating steadily, but their counterattacks were still deadly.

Lao Qin led his men in a sharp knife charge. While the trenches at the rear were still fighting fiercely, they rushed into the trenches further forward, as brave and sharp as ever.

He sprinted all the way and finally reached the outermost trench. However, the moment Lao Qin jumped into the trench, his heart dropped.

He saw no more Gnoll defenders here.

On the contrary, there is only one dug tunnel under the empty trench. It looks like it is the work of kobolds, but the terrain of the trench does not need to be dug again, so there is only one answer.
"Run! It's a trap!"

Lao Qin roared angrily, grabbed a player with one hand and flew into the sky, shouting towards the battlefield still fiercely fighting behind him, but it was already too late.

Six hundred players and an equal number of People's Army soldiers have been dragged down by the red-eyed jackals in the trenches. They can no longer escape from here in a short time, so the explosives buried under the trenches can
"boom"

In the explosion that shook the earth and the mountains, under the gaze of Mr. Qin, who was gaping in the sky, the ground in the center of the entire trench area jumped violently.

The violent explosive kinetic energy exploded from below and sent many gnolls into the sky. They died at the moment of "taking off", along with those brave Transian warriors.

The violent ground then collapsed, turning the place into a large sunken pit. Almost immediately after, a roaring meteorite fell from the sky right in the middle of the explosion area. After the impact of the meteorite dissipated, the blasted pit was Exuding the aura of anxiety and death, except for the few players who flew into the air in advance, everyone else seemed to have performed a health bar disappearing technique in an instant.

Bodies scattered across the ground were buried in the collapsed position. It was hard to tell how many explosives the Jackals had used for this result, but the results they gained were brilliant.

The death of so many players at once is unprecedented since the launch of the "Real World" server.

They were set upon by the gnolls.

Lao Qin fell to the ground in an indescribable gesture. He shook his body and knelt on the ground. He stretched out his hand in the blood-stained soil and grasped the dog tags emitting white smoke. In front of his eyes was a killed man. People's Army soldiers.

He was still very young, and perhaps he never thought he would die in such a vicious trap.

At this moment, Master Qin felt as if a stone was stuck in his heart.

He made a terrible mistake, which cost five hundred lives. They were also the children of certain parents. They were also the pillars of hope. They were also real living lives.

"Beep warning! The user's heart rate has increased. Warning!. The connection is about to be disconnected and the nearest medical institution will be called. Warning! Blood pressure has increased. Beep."

The sky and earth in front of Lao Qin were spinning, and the whole world seemed to be dyed red at that moment.

After all, he is an old man who is almost seventy years old. The gaming helmet can make his projection look younger, but the impact on the spiritual level is not so easy to avoid.

"Master Qin! Old Qin Zhuo! Wake up, don't scare us! Hey, can you hear me? Someone come quickly!!!"

The surrounding players rushed over and lifted Master Qin with all their hands, but before they could receive further treatment, Lao Qin's body turned into a ball of light and disappeared.

This is an emergency disconnect.

At the same time, in the swamp not far from the position, Xu Gesen clearly saw this scene through the spell cast by the hunting priest. It nodded with satisfaction and looked back at the group of warlords who were as quiet as chickens behind it.

It asked:
"The Transians used to use the lives of the undead as sacrifices for victory. Their lives were consumables. This method of warfare is worth learning, and the Lord of the Hunt is also cheering for such a victory.

Our lives are also consumables dedicated to the birth of gods. So, I ask you, have you learned it? "
