My players are so fierce.

Chapter 875 874. Guardians of the past, Transia needs you! (superior)

The combat plan submitted by the player staff was approved, so the five pairs of wheels that temporarily replaced Lao Qin as the commander immediately took action and began to mobilize the players through the first batch of "students" who had been assigned to the defense line as commanders. Get involved in this action.

Posts and video descriptions detailing the battle also appeared on forums and taverns. In order to "stabilize people's hearts" and refute the rumors that he died and questioned the safety of "Real World", Lao Qin personally The video provides a general explanation for this operation.

Why do you do this? What is the significance of doing this?

What is the logic of the bottom-level construction and what are the key points of the top-level design? It is basically like breaking it down and explaining it clearly to the players who want to participate in the action.

This was by no means a pointless act of suicide.

If everything goes well, and with a little bit of luck, this battle will be enough to cause irreparable losses to the increasingly crazy Jackals and greatly improve the defender's strategic initiative.

Most importantly, this time would boost the morale of the Maginot Line, which was already in danger.

In a superstitious quasi-medieval environment, all epic wars are more or less related to these gods and ghosts. What's more, the players are not promoting feudal superstition. They can really be resurrected in three days.

Lao Qin's question is really classic. Look at how much noise the last person who could be resurrected in three days made, you can naturally know that the wonderful reaction that this thing can produce can definitely dominate the direction of a war if it is used.

But even without Lao Qin's explanation, players were still very enthusiastic about this counterattack.

The players didn't think so much. Their thinking was very simple. After all, we were all brothers who lived in the trenches. More than 500 people were tricked by jackals this time. Who could endure such a great frustration?
That is to say, the giant shark's group of war madmen were deployed to participate in the God-killing operation. Otherwise, the fierce counterattack against the Jackal artificial soldiers by the Wam brothers, who acted faster than they thought, would have started long ago. Now that Lao Qin is willing to take the initiative, everyone It’s not too late to be happy.

Now I'm just waiting to make trouble for him!
Let Xu Gesen know what "immortal military power" is! Hey, when it comes to playing ruthlessly, we players have never been afraid of anyone!

While the player community began to prepare for the big operation in four days, the resistance on Transia's side has not stopped.

The situation on the defense line was rapidly slipping in the direction that Commander Kudel was most worried about. After the success of the insidious operation that killed more than 500 players at a time, the Jackal Warlords began to copy the gourd, and they combined the kobolds and Explosives and traditional meteorite magic are tied together in a wild way.

Not only will they send kobolds to dig traps and bury explosives, but they will even send kobolds crazy engineers to blow up the road when the attack does not go well. The kobolds, a servant army that originally had no advantages except quantity, suddenly became very popular. , and their status in the jackal system has actually increased a lot.

In the past, you could only eat bones, but now you can eat at least a piece of meat before you are sent to die.

For the kobolds, this life is no different from before. Anyway, fighting with the jackal master used to lead to death. After the explosives were released, the number of dead kobolds decreased, so the kobolds also died. Tennai fell in love with this kind of big bang that would explode.

This dangerous thing even has a tendency to chase after the candle's sacred place in their hearts.

It can only be said that this is an out-and-out black humor.

No one knows how many explosives Hugersen still has in his hands, but the key to this is that no one dares to gamble.

Therefore, after paying the first wave of casualties, the entire Maginot Line entered passive defense mode overnight. It became very risky to send large groups of soldiers to engage in close combat with Jackals unless necessary.

Kudel, the defensive line's general manager, realized that Murphy's fears were coming true.

Fortunately for the locals, they have the determination to defend their homeland and dare to draw their swords when encountering jackals. However, the troops from other countries who came to support were obviously hesitant, and even the Crimean Fortress There are people's hearts floating around there.

The tribunes who had doubts about the players' tactics before will now start to hope that the battle will proceed as soon as possible. If morale is allowed to continue to decline, the situation will become worse.

At the same time, Scarlet Consul Miriam also fulfilled the order of militia recruitment issued by Murphy, and the recruitment order stamped with three seals from the Administrative Office, the People's Army and the Maginot Line Command was sent to the Transia region In every administrative village in .

The militiamen were assembled by civil servants from each village, led by local militia captains to various assembly points, or transported by boat or car to the towns behind the Maginot Line for training.

Of course, not everyone is willing to participate in the war, but unfortunately, war has long been a part of life for the Transians, and hundreds of years of suffering have shaped their savage and upright characters.

Those who evade conscription don't even need to send people from the Ministry of Military Justice. The old men in the same village will organize people to catch them and catch them with harsh words. They will be whipped in front of the villagers first, so that everyone can see the fate of cowards, and then they will be tied up. The upper hands are sent to the front line like prisoners.

Such a tough folk custom is definitely not because Transians like to fight.

Just because they have lived in the tragic life of dying if they don't fight for many years, when you get used to something, you naturally won't resist it.

What's more, although the vampire lord this time has only ruled Transia for more than eight months, he and his officials have shown a commitment to establishing and maintaining order that the previous lords would never bother to do. thing.

Although the lives of the people on this land are far from prosperous, at least after the chaos is calmed down, everyone feels that a beautiful peace has arrived, and no one with any brains would want to actively destroy it.

The simplest example is that the jackals and kobold gangs that used to cause trouble in the wild have been cleared away. This means that farmers do not always have to carry a knife with them when they go out to work. This means that small businessmen dare to leave their villages to go A small trade in a neighboring village means parents don't have to lock their children in their homes at night, which means raising livestock is no longer risky.

In the past, the men would only care about whether the people in Cadman City had enough to eat, but now Mr. Murphy will buy food from Her Majesty the Wolf Lady and deliver it to every village. Although it is not enough for everyone to eat and drink, at least it can Guarantee that no one will starve to death again.

There are also the officials sent by Baron Miriam to various villages. Although they also have problems of one kind or another, and although they occasionally show a domineering side, they are much better than the previous officials.

Well, in the past, there was only one kind of official in the Transian border villages, and that was the tax collector with a whip and torture instrument.

The current Transian officials are performing so well. It is said that there is something called "attendance" and "promotion mechanism" that restrains them. People think that it is an obscure magic, and they are all spreading rumors about Murphy. The Lord is a very powerful mage. He can summon ten thousand invisible eyes every full moon night to disperse in every village in Transia to monitor whether his officials are working seriously.

He also has a pair of ears given by the gods, and can hear the quietest complaints of every territorial citizen in the wind.

But Mr. Murphy is a kind vampire!
He never punishes his people. His targets have always been the thieves who steal his money and the villains who bully his loyal people. Once he catches his pigtails, it will be difficult for those officials who are misbehaving.

There are also rumors that people with noses and eyes say that Mr. Murphy has a secret army called "The Sheriff", which is composed of well-trained vampire executioners!

Whenever someone makes a mistake, they will immediately appear like a ghost. Under the leadership of those foreigners who always like to jump around, they will accurately find the culprit, and then execute them in public and then escort them to the Maginot Line for hard labor. .

Most of these rumors are nonsense.

The superstitious Transians cannot understand the efficient office system established by the computing orbs, but this does not prevent them from using their own eyes to see the changes in this land for more than eight months, although the harsh wartime system has been running for three It took many months, but miraculously the locals didn’t complain too much.

Haha, a harsh wartime system?

Who are you kidding, this is much easier than what they had before!

This fully proves that as long as the starting point is low enough, anything you do can be called a great achievement.

This also fully proves that Mr. Murphy is another kind of benevolent vampire who is rare to see in ten thousand years. If there are still people who still don’t believe that Mr. Murphy is a good person, then the locals will give more vivid examples.

For example, you see, after ruling here for eight months, Lord Murphy only collects a symbolic amount of food grown in the fields as taxes, and only collected it once. Isn't this kind act enough to prove that Mo Mo Is Mr. Fei a kind-hearted vampire?

Well, of course Murphy also has something to say about this.

It’s not that he and Miriam don’t want to collect taxes.

Mainly because this place is so poor!
In that tax payment a few months ago, the taxes collected by several administrative villages in Transia were not as much as the commercial taxes paid by Lao Huo's casino and the Black Market of the Blood Rat Gang in two months. With Her Majesty's nearly free food aid and the black disaster threat hanging over her head, Murphy was too lazy to scratch the surface no matter how idle he was. What's more, he is really busy and has no time to bully the people.

Murphy did not have a political system to evaluate whether his rule over Transia was successful, but Miriam told him that he was a very good ruler, so Murphy, who had basically done nothing, viewed himself in the same way. , and judging from the speed of the militia recruitment, Murphy feels that maybe he is really a good ruler?
Well, this is really a ghost!

Thinking about it carefully, I clearly didn't do anything. The dirty work was all done by Miriam, administrative players and civil servants. Huh, this is probably the legendary "rule by inaction", right?
What a genius I am!

But the tens of thousands of recruitment orders issued by Miriam under Murphy's order were not just for the militia. Some people with special status also received the recruitment orders. What is even more outrageous is that some people actively requested to go to the defense line for assistance. .

For example, Miriam’s captain of the bodyguard, Elder Norman.

"Are you sure you want to go?"

In the office of the administrative building of Scarlet Castle, Miriam looked at Norman in front of her very seriously, and she said:
"The situation is actually not bad enough to require the Archon's guards to also step onto the battlefield. This recruitment is mainly to cope with the 'Three Day Miracle' operation that the foreigners are about to launch. It is the counterattack that Lord Murphy has prepared for his own defense section. Made in advance.

To be honest, the militiamen don't necessarily need to set foot on the battlefield.

It was more of an armed march to stabilize people's hearts than actual action. "

"You have never been on the battlefield, so your understanding of war is too idealistic, Mr. Archon."

Norman, who was wearing an iron mask to cover his face that had been burned during the ten years of war, said in a hoarse voice:

"If Mr. Murphy decides to launch such a large-scale mobilization, it means that the situation on the Maginot Line is likely to deteriorate. He may have given such a mild explanation just to let you concentrate on internal affairs. Please believe me, militiamen They'll come in handy!

This is why I took the initiative to apply to leave the safe rear.

The ongoing battle there will determine the direction and outcome of the war. It requires every warrior who dares to fight to take up arms and every defender to sacrifice their lives.

I have experienced too many wars, and those in the past made me feel tired, helpless, and desperate. During the entire ten years of war, I could not feel any joy, only pain.

That is the punishment of my God.
But this war is different. I have seen a lot of changes in the past few months with you. These changes make me believe that you and Governor Murphy have the ability to bring about a rise in compliance with the needs of this suffering land. .

I will set foot where I should go as a real soldier rather than a prisoner of war. Only our fight on the front line now can allow people like you to better stay behind and work for the future of this land. .

If even you go to the battlefield, the little gains Transia has finally achieved will be wiped out.

The most desperate thing is not that there is no hope, but that hope is ruthlessly extinguished after seeing it. "

Norman sighed, took off the emblem of the Archon Guard Commander that he had wiped clean, and placed it on Miriam's table. He said in a deep voice:
"I have seen similar things many times in the past, and I was unable to stop it, but now I at least have a chance to fight for it. Please do not refuse my request to join the war, Your Excellency Archon.

I volunteer and desire to participate in this war of defense, which is what my God wants to see. "

"but"

Miriam had sensed Norman's determination.

However, she was still unwilling to let him go. On the one hand, it was because Norman was indeed old and she was not reassured. On the other hand, she felt a determination from Norman's words that scared her.

She had a hunch that if she couldn't stop it, then she might have another way to see the old soldier who had protected her for more than half a year.

The consul whispered:

“But if you leave, what will happen to my safety?
You know, although the Jackals have not taken any action to send assassins at present, there are still dusk spies in Transia. Once the frontline battle situation turns in our favor, it is difficult to say whether those cultists will take risks. "

"You have nothing to worry about at all."

Norman replied immediately:
"The Church of Avalon will send an archdruid to replace me as your guard chief. Ms. Frillian was responsible for the security of Greeny Island during the old church period. She is more professional and suitable than me, and with her With an innate sensitivity to foul psychic energy, the servants of Dusk will find it difficult to harm you."

"Oh, you have thought of everything and arranged it so well that it is difficult for me to say no."

Miriam stood up, walked around her desk to Norman, and said:

"It is said that no one can change the choice of a determined warrior. I have witnessed this truth with my own eyes. Well, I will approve your request to participate in the war, but please take care of yourself on the battlefield, Lord Norman.

I once talked with Mr. Crow, and he told me that soldiers like you who have spent a long life in the war will have some psychological diseases that are difficult to eradicate. Self-destructive desires and mania are hidden in your hearts, making it difficult for you to accept Live your whole life in a peaceful environment.

But please believe me, Transia’s development today is also due to you.

You are fully entitled to all of this. "

After saying that, Miriam took off the vampire-style one-handed sword she was wearing along with the black and red scabbard. She held it up with both hands and handed it to Norman. She said:

"This 'Scarlet Lady' is a collection from Salokdar. Governor Murphy said that as the governor of Transia, I need such a weapon to show my identity, but this powerful psychic weapon remains with me. It can only be a ceremonial sword, and only a warrior as good as you can unleash its power.

For protection, for resistance, for the power of guarding!
Please accept it!

As I march into battle with you to defend my people. "

“Will live up to your expectations!”

Norman said something in a deep voice, and then accepted this gorgeous and powerful weapon.

He said goodbye to Miriam and then went to the office of the Praetorian Guard to say goodbye to his colleagues. These soldiers gave him a simple but sincere farewell here. He changed into the witch hunter's armor in Old Norman and rode on As his horse left the administrative building, he looked back.

Beside the glass window, he could see Archon Miriam waving goodbye to him.

A smile flashed across Norman's face hidden under the mask. If his child had not died in the disaster on Greene Island, he would be as old as Miriam now, and she might shine as brightly as the Scarlet Archon. Become an independent and outstanding woman.

I must set foot on the battlefield at this time, and I have the obsession deep in my heart.

Mr. Crow was right, veterans always have some psychological problems. Norman was afraid that if he stayed in this peaceful environment any longer, he would lose the courage to fight and accept the fact that he was getting older.

He has protected Miriam for more than half a year and witnessed the growth of another child who lost his parents. Now it is time to go to the destined place to fulfill the promise that has been missed for ten years.

His child is waiting for him in another world, and this reunion has been delayed for too long.
