Chapter 979: Evening

Andersa didn't let herself immerse herself in depression for too long.

It is true that Tifeng is one step slower on the modern battlefield, but this does not mean that Tifeng’s military power has fallen behind the Cecil in a comprehensive way-now her forces are only in a disadvantageous situation under certain conditions, and even only Passive defense in the Wolfwolf, but even so, it is not so easy for the Cecil to break through this line of defense.

Her eyes turned to the distance, and on the west side of the direction of Winterwolf, the smoke was gradually rising...

...

The heavy crawlers crushed the hard and cold wasteland. The low roar of the magic engine and the mechanical friction of the gear link came from all directions. The muzzle of the "Warhammer" main battle tank was high, and in this steel army In front of it, the towering wall of Winterwolf and the shining fortress shield are already visible in the distance.

The first attack wave is gradually approaching the optimal shooting distance. The echelon commander is in a sturdy tank and looks at the distant scene through the periscope. Except for Winterwolf, there seems to be no obstacles set by the enemy on the wilderness. ——There is no wooden barricade that is better than nothing, there are no criss-crossing blocking nets, and no annoying interception troops.

"They seemed to give up the tank troops that stopped us in the wilderness," the machinery was noisy, and the commander raised his voice, shouting the captain in front of him, "we are approaching the shooting distance."

"The Tifeng people should now know how bad they are!" The captain also raised his voice and shouted, "I thought how difficult the famous Winter Wolf defense line was-it didn't even look like Boulder City The Cluster of Legions!"

The echelon commander immediately reminded: "Be cautious! Those Tifeng people behave a bit abnormally on the battlefield. Be careful of traps..."

Over the past year, the front-line troops in the east have been expanding and training. Now its members are not only the soldiers of the former First Army transferred from the south, but some of them were originally stationed in Changfeng Fortress, and they survived the crystal. After being retrained, the veterans of the Eastern Realm who have suffered a lot of disasters have now become a member of the new army, and the commander of this echelon is one of such "retrained veterans".

Rich combat experience and knowledge of the Tifeng people made him a front-line officer on the front line, and now the commander's heart is gradually growing more and more confused.

The Tifeng people have never behaved so strangely-as a party proactively declaring war, they act like the Cecilians in a hurry. As a powerful legion in the border area, they are handicapped on the battlefield, and many elite troops do not In appearances, I have heard that the Tifeng people are also reforming the army and enhancing the combat effectiveness of the border guards, but now it seems...Why is the performance of Winter Wolf Fort even worse than the Ansu era a few years ago?

The commander's mind was confused, and he did not forget to raise his vigilance to pay attention to the surrounding situation.

At this moment, he suddenly felt a slight itching and tingling on the surface of his arm skin.

He lowered his head and saw that his hair was rising.

"Pay attention to the magic trap!" The echelon commander immediately reacted. He rushed to the communication tower. "The left and right wings are scattered, the rear team decelerates and bypasses, the front team clears the fire at close range, and the synchronic soldiers prepare to meet the enemy -"

The first wave of tanks reacted immediately. During the roar of machinery, the heavy steel tanks began to quickly change the queue, and the coordinated "steel ambassador" tanks opened their shields and began to prepare for the magic shock. Almost at the same time, the entire land at the front of the tank troops began to appear dense white light, which seemed to be composed of countless small lightnings-the light network seemed to penetrate from the soil, and immediately swept across the battlefield. After a while, there were a number of tanks in the mechanical compartment, rail guns, etc., with fine sparks.

The power ridge was severely damaged in the magic surge, the magic energy engine was unbalanced, and the gears and connecting rods burst into a harsh noise under the dual effects of inertia and engine out of control. The functional chariots stopped one after another. Although a greater number of chariots did not stop completely, they also obviously slowed down, and the subtle explosions in the body continued.

At this moment, a low buzzing sound came from very high altitude. The synchronists under the protection of the steel ambassador raised their heads subconsciously. In the gradually dim sky under the dusk, they saw the sky above the front suddenly filled As the focus points are stacked like mirrors, the surging magic power is surging in the air, and those mirrors start to become red...

The chariot capable of action quickly retreated or spread to both wings, the steel ambassador entered the overload mode, opened the wide area shield to the maximum, the infantry quickly looked for the squadron to seek cover, and in the next second, hundreds of thousands of high-energy The beam has been spilled...

...

"Confirm that the Arcane Stress Field is in effect! The enemy has been contained!" "Aurora Rain Focusing is completed and full projection is in progress!" "The Second Echelon Mage is starting to accumulate!" "Observing the results..."

The defensive line that was still calm the previous second seemed to be boiling at the moment, a wave of magic focusing buzzing and explosions hit the eardrum, and a series of information was quickly gathered in front of Andersa. She had retreated to the command in the fortress Indoors, the magic projection made by the mage is now observing the situation on the defense line-the distant scene has been obscured by the overwhelming high-energy beam and explosion smoke.

"It worked," Earl Palin Winterburg looked nervously at the holographic picture presented by the magic projection. This was the first time he used his combat mage to fight against the Cecilian mechanical forces. High-energy beams appear to penetrate their shields."

However, Andesa, who served as the supreme commander, frowned. Obviously she found the problem: "...we should wait for them to start the stress field a little bit earlier, the mages are too anxious. Or if we have two traps That’s it, you can intercept all the Cecilians in the coverage of the beam rain..."

"They will not be fooled for the second time," said Shen Sheng, Earl of Palin Winterburg. "But we have also achieved the expected results. The next step is the confrontation of hard power..."

Before the words of the Earl of Winterhold fell, Andesa saw a flash of light in the depth of the smoke in the hologram, and something shocking dissipated the smoke, leaving a pale blue trajectory in the air.

Immediately after that, the second and third flashes appeared in the smoke.

After just a few seconds, a huge explosion sound came in from the outside-the wall was attacked.

The smoke was blown away by the wind, and the Cecil Steel Corps appeared again-the menacing force appeared very embarrassed. After being baptized by the high-energy beam rain, nearly one-third of the war machines had been reduced to wreckage. A large number of heavily damaged chariots were scattered on the battlefield, and the survivors were using the wreckage as a cover to bombard the walls of Winterwolf.

Even if they are embarrassed, the momentum of their attack is still amazing.

At the same time, Andesa also noticed that there were other enemies behind the chariots-some soldiers with strange equipment survived the attack just now. They were spreading to their positions under the cover of their own chariots and battlefield wreckage. On, it seems to be searching for something carefully.

They are destroying the arcane stress field generator buried underground.

The Earl of Palin Winterburg’s face was tense, this was the first time he saw the "ordinary man" legion that had not been annihilated by the strategic spells of the Black Flag Magician Group, but instead had a certain combat power. Not only surprised by the fighting power and survivability of ordinary people under the blessing of equipment, but also surprised by their courage after facing such a large-scale magic blow.

At this moment, the voice of the teleportation spell passed into the ears of Andersa and the Earl of Winterhold. The magical sentry station set high above Winterwolf heard more news about the coming of the enemy——

"An enemy tank was observed in the northwest direction!" "A magic reaction was observed in the southwest direction!" "A second wave of enemy offensive was observed on the front of the defense line!"

"You are right," Andesa looked at the Earl of Winterhold and said slowly, "The next step is the confrontation of hard power..."

...

In the rear of the main propulsion unit, the original Contracting Fort has been temporarily transformed into the front line command post of the First Army. Various types of magic equipment transferred from the rear occupy the lobby of the first floor of the castle. A large number of command, liaison, and coordination personnel are in the lobby. Coming from place to place, this place presents a very busy scene.

It was Philip himself who commanded the frontline offensive operations here.

A subordinate stood in front of him, reporting on the situation just returned from the front line: "The advancement unit's action on the west side of the Wolfwolf was frustrated. The first unit was hit by the Tifeng's legion-level spells and could not continue to advance. The extreme range slowly weakens the enemy shield. The second, third, and fourth echelons are trying to attack from all directions, but they are all bombarded by powerful cluster magic and encounter some kind of trap that can interfere with the operation of the magic net device."

"It seems that the Black Flag Wizards have arrived at Winterwolf," Philip quickly concluded and frowned. "That kind of trap didn't appear in the previous intelligence... It seems that there are some Tifeng people who have not even us. Fresh things I've seen."

"General, did you put the reserve echelon into the battlefield?" the subordinate asked. "The Black Flag Magician has entered the Wolfwolf early. The ground troops are now advancing slowly..."

Philip raised his head and glanced at the Magic Web terminal not far away.

"No," he shook his head. "Let the propulsion units maintain a safe distance and continue to weaken the shield of Winterwolf outside the bombing range of strategic spells. It doesn't matter if it is slower-as long as you continue to contain the energy of the Black Flag Magician Group That’s it, you can’t allow those mages to rest and adjust the deployment gap.”

"Yes, general."

After his men left, Philip exhaled slightly. He returned to the tactical map, reconfirming the terrain around Winterwolf and the enemy's military deployment confirmed during the last reconnaissance.

Winter Wolf Fort is now passively defending, and although the fighting power it shows is strong but not beyond expectations, the troops mobilized everywhere in Tifeng must be constantly gathering towards the Winter Wolf defense line. Over time, Winter Wolf Fort’s The defense will be completely stabilized, and even active attacks will be launched.

However, he did not issue an order to invest more echelons or change the advancement of the offensive plan of the troops.

But looking at the tactical map in front of him and thinking about the current battlefield situation, some sound suddenly appeared in his mind—

"Do you want to try a more aggressive attack? Let several echelons on the front line launch a large-scale cluster impact against the defense firepower of Winterwolf, so many tanks and multi-functional chariots are distributed on the open battlefield, from all directions at the same time If you are attacking, even the strategic spells of the Black Flag Magician Group cannot cover the entire battlefield...

"The wizard of flesh and blood has its limits, and super-large-scale strategic spells must have a cooling cycle...

"Compared with another set of sound plans, the advancing troops may encounter more casualties, but they can achieve results faster, and in this way, the merits of the war will belong to the First Army completely, and there is no need to share the honor with others...

"This is the battlefield, and sometimes the necessary sacrifice is in exchange for the necessary merit..."

Beside Philip, Malm Dunett waited patiently with a gentle and loving smile for the young General Cecil to make a decision.

Philip looked up, and he turned to look in the direction of Malm Dunett, and suddenly a smile appeared.

Malm Dunnet's gentle and loving smile stiffened in an instant, and he seemed to be caught in a huge consternation, subconsciously speaking: "How do you..."

"I have faithfully believed in the God of War, and even now, this belief should still be able to affect my words and deeds, my way of thinking, and even affect my soul subtlely-not everyone has the ability to break the soul with his own will. The stamp," Philip said nonchalantly. "So, do you think Cecil's soldiers will not do a little protection after learning about Tifeng's hidden dangers?"

As he said, he raised his left hand, a pale gold chain hung down, and a small, pocket-like device slid down his cuff. However, when the "dial" was opened, there was a shimmer in it. , Complex curved runes reminiscent of deep-sea creatures.

At the moment of seeing the rune, Malm Dunett felt a vertigo, and his body quickly became unstable, flashing violently as if the energy was about to break!

The next second, the figure of the former Pope God of War quickly dimmed, as if he was planning to escape from this place by some kind of escape spell. However, before his action, Philip had already quickly pressed a button on the side of the magic network terminal- —

Some kind of low-frequency oscillation with strong power that cannot be heard by the human ear instantly "reverberates" in the whole room, like the spirit requisition, it directly suppresses Malm Dunit's spirit body and expels it. The dimension he wants to escape to.

Officers and civilians nearby heard a howl that was not human. They saw a figure appearing out of thin air near the general and were knocked out in a state of dismay. Several exclamations rang out around him.

Malm Dunnett felt a biting pain, after becoming a spirit, he thought he could no longer produce a similar feeling, but some unseen force was tearing away what he used to maintain himself "Divine Power" made his soul seem to split apart. This continuous blow finally angered the paranoid soul. He suddenly raised his body and raised his scepter high in the hand—

A spider silk wrapped around his wrist.
