Chapter 394: Total War Begins(1/2)
Xiongba: That's all for this matter. In the Apocalypse League, we will be responsible for restraining players in the platinum and gold ranks. As for the silver ranks, we will leave it to you to arrange it. You can discuss it carefully. @ Chen Jinhui
Chen Jinhui, who was tagged by Xiongba, quickly expressed his understanding.
Then he cut a window and quickly returned a message to Xia Qi.
Chen Jinhui: Yes. The league will send someone to help you with the troublesome characters in the Apocalypse Alliance. However, other players may support you during this period. I will ask the support team to prepare in advance. If necessary, you can send a letter of help directly.
In response, Xia Qi immediately said that there was no problem.
But after that, Chen Jinhui sent another message.
Chen Jinhui: When are you going to do it? I need to confirm the time.
Xia Qi: It's OK at any time.
The full-scale war initiated by the golden-level war token ignores the effect of the war-free token. As long as the opponent is confirmed, the war can be started directly and forcibly at any time.
Chen Jinhui: OK, I need to make some adjustments here. After the adjustment is made, I will send you a message. Then you can just use the golden-level war token to start the war.
After the conversation between the two ended, Chen Jinhui went to work on other things.
Xia Qi did not rush to start a war, but once again confirmed the deployment of troops on all sides of his borders, the hoarding of food and city-defying resources to ensure that everything was foolproof!
At the same time, the war is imminent, and the generals defending each city naturally have to remind each other.
He is bound to annex the dwarf civilization and will never allow any low-level mistakes to happen!
Time passed quietly.
The adjustments of the members of the Tiandi Alliance are still very fast. A week has passed, and the players responsible for each part are ready.
Xia Qi, who received the news from Chen Jinhui, replied briefly, saying that after receiving the message, he directly took out a golden war token stored in the system warehouse.
It is worth mentioning that this gold-level war token was opened by Xia Qi from the silver-level treasure chest.
And it was after Xia Qi decided to annex Romanov's dwarf civilization.
Xia Qi himself wouldn't believe it if there was no system to do something wrong.
[Is it confirmed that the total war was launched against the Ice Bear player "Peter Alexeyevich Romanov"]
"yes!"
[Chinese player "Xia Qi" launched a full-scale war on you]
As the system prompted, Romanov, who was originally savoring the delicacy, suddenly jumped up from the chair.
He blinked, thinking that he had auditory hallucinations.
How could it be? He believed that although he had fought several invasion battles with Xia Qi and had lost a lot of troops, he was not at all dead, right?
But when he flipped through the system and saw the prompt he had just sent, Romanov's face suddenly became gloomy.
"Oh, Shet!"
"Xia Qi, you bastard! Stinky shit!"
"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!"
The sudden furious Romanov made all the attendants serving the dining room around him kneel down on the ground with fear, thinking that they and others had not taken good care of their dwarf king.
Romanov, who was furious, did not notice this scene, or even if he noticed it, he was not in the mood to pay attention to these people.
Since the beginning of that invasion war, Xia Qi has been invading his civilization like he has taken the wrong medicine, and sometimes he feels inexplicably.
Even if they are players of the hostile alliance, they fight together during the war between the two alliances.
But even the gold-level war token has been used, as for it?
At this moment, Romanov really wanted to rush to Xia Qi and question him loudly.
Are you crazy?!!!
But since things have already developed to this point, no matter how crazy Romanov is, it is useless.
With the beginning of the total war, the world began to change, and the planet where Xia Qi and Romanov were located were already connected silently.
The first step in war is to open your horizons.
Accompanied by Xia Qi's orders, the wind falcon carrying Xia Qi's letters quickly flew across the border towns of Daxia.
After receiving Xia Qi's letter, a large number of cavalry rushed out from each border town.
At the same time, with Xia Qi's order, all the cities in Daxia entered a state of preparation.
On the other side, Romanov made the same arrangement after venting his anger.
Obviously, he also has experience in total war.
All of the next month were spent in the field of visit.
During this month, both sides have figured out their positions.
The dwarf civilization is located in the west of Daxia, next to the grassland, not far from the goblin administrative area.
However, neither side was in a hurry. Although the atmosphere on both sides was tense, it seemed a little quiet.
And this is the so-called last tranquility before the storm.
Xia Qi was not in a hurry to start a war. He had only one thing he had to do now, that is, to continue to mobilize troops to the border.
As for Romanov, he naturally became even less anxious because he did not intend to take the initiative.
Since this comprehensive war was initiated by Xia Qi, it means that the opponent's offensive intention is stronger than his. Under this premise, he just needs to arrange fortifications while waiting for the opponent to attack.
In this way, he can still gain the advantage of defending the city and terrain, which is much more cost-effective than taking the initiative.
Although Xia Qi had plenty of time, as the initiator of the total war, it was impossible for him to remain stalemate with the other party like this.
After receiving the latest information from the Western Reconnaissance Team and confirming the news, a large area of sight that was originally shrouded in the west was also opened.
According to the report of the reconnaissance team, the western border of Daxia and the border city of dwarf civilization are about a buffer zone of 100 kilometers.
At the same time, they also found that outside the enemy's border city, there were a large number of dwarves digging something suspected to be a river channel.
Xia Qi was stunned when he saw this, but soon he came over.
Then there is no river channel, it should be a trench.
The most direct use of trenches is to cover the musketeers' troops for shooting, but it is not very useful in ordinary invasion wars.
Because if trenches are built forever, they will affect the players' own expansion, and when their troops and people enter and exit the city on weekdays, they will also affect their efficiency and cause trouble for themselves.
But if we create temporary projects, according to the pace of invasion war, the invading party will soon attack and there is no time to dig out a trench.
Another reason is that in today's era, this defense measure can only be used to cover the musketeer troops, and is of no use for melee troops.
And if it is a cavalry unit, it will completely cause trouble for itself.
However, when modern wars come, the trench will be carried forward and become an indispensable part of the war.
Let's get back to the topic.
Now Romanov ordered the troops of the border city to dig trenches outside the city, and this posture clearly meant that he wanted to fight with him with the dwarf musketeers in his hand.
But Xia Qi has nothing to do with it. At worst, he can just fight against each other.
Moreover, the trench defense facility is easy to fight, but at least Xia Qi already knows it.
Romanov wanted to use this trick to deal with him, but it could only be said that he was just overthinking.
The first month of the total war passed like this, and it can be seen that both sides are quite capable of patience.
During this period, Xia Qi did not go to the front line, but was responsible for the mobilization of troops in the rear.
He issued a warrant, conferring the title of goblin King Jinming as the commander of the vanguard army, General Zhuoxiong of Zhenxiong as the general, and Zhou Yu as the staff officer of the army.
Directly lead the assembled vanguard army to advance towards the border city of dwarf civilization.
The total force of this vanguard army has reached 20,000.
Obviously, Xia Qi is ready to start!
The army walked out of the west gate of Gear City and advanced towards the border city of Dwarf civilization.
After several days of continuous marching, the huge military power has been discovered by the scouts on the dwarf side.
The scouts returned to the city as fast as possible and reported the discovery to the generals defending the city.
"Report to the general, the figure of the enemy army appeared in the hilly area about fifty kilometers away!"
"How many troops do the enemy have?"
"There is a visually estimated force of at least 20,000."
Hearing this, Delin, the right hand, who was stroking his beard, subconsciously exerted force, and pulled down a thigh of beards.
But at this time he no longer cared about this, and he immediately issued an order: "Send the order and the entire army will enter a first-level alert state!"
He didn't have time to think too much. Facing the opponent's troops, as long as he had a slight mistake, this border city might have to fall.
A large number of dwarf musketeers quickly entered the trench and took their positions, and the melee troops were also ready to go on one side!
This entire dwarf border city is ready for battle at this moment.
To be continued...
