Originally, the red side's commander asked his soldiers to launch a counterattack because he wanted to restore the decline in morale caused by the previous retreat.
In the first half of the counterattack just now, the performance seemed to be good, but everything that seemed to have good momentum came to an abrupt end after reaching the second line of defense.
The soldiers of the blue side, relying on various fortifications built in advance, blocked the counterattacking red side troops from outside.
The NPC soldiers organized several charges, but were shot back by the dense arrow towers, leaving corpses on the ground.
Even the thick-skinned NPC soldiers can't bear it, let alone the players who are following behind and feinting. If a random arrow hits, it will cause two to three thousand damage, while the archers on the arrow tower are all in one round.
It is a rain of dozens of arrows that can overwhelm the attacker and make it impossible for him to raise his head. As long as he enters the attack range and reacts a little slower, he will be shot into a hedgehog if he is not careful.
In this way, the counterattacking red side was frustrated in front of the second line of defense, and the situation fell into a stalemate.
There are more and more people in the rear, but they dare not attack by force. What about the players on the blue side?
Yue Feng took his brothers and found a spacious and comfortable bunker to stay down there. From time to time, he would take a look at the battlefield through the observation port on the ground. He lived a comfortable life.
"Yes, great master Rumeng! I really asked you to analyze it correctly! The red side was attracted by us to the second line of defense. It is neither possible to continue the attack nor to retreat! This time the medicine is at a big loss!"
Luo Badao was completely conquered by Yue Feng's vision and strategy, and there was even a hint of heartfelt admiration in his tone of voice.
"Haha, where are you, you kid! Look, the attacker has a big killer! It's impossible for such a big battle involving tens of thousands of people to be without heavy equipment!"
"Heavy equipment? Are you talking about the kind of city defense crossbow we used in the border fortress? Didn't you see this thing on the red side?" God of War Haotian also took over the conversation, and said something while talking.
I walked through the lookout and looked around, as if looking for the heavy equipment Yue Feng mentioned.
Yue Feng shook his head: "City defense crossbows are not effective for fortifications built on relatively flat terrain like this! When I was studying engineering, I saw a book about engineering machinery, which mentioned large catapults!
There are woods about a few kilometers east of our defense line. If I were the commander of the red side, I would let the soldiers use local materials to make this powerful siege weapon with a simple structure!"
"Catapult? What should we do?" Luo Badao became worried after hearing this.
"It's cool! It's just a little more casualties. Let's just stay in the bunker. It won't be a big problem!"
We are now participating in a legion battle, as long as the result is what we want, it doesn't matter how brutal the process is or how many NPC soldiers are killed in the end!"
"Okay, let's do whatever you say! Everyone listens to you! This large-scale battle is indeed different from the usual small-scale melee! There is knowledge everywhere!"
"Just wait patiently. If the time is right, the result will be right! If the time is wrong, no matter how hard you try, it will be in vain!"
…
As a reborn badass player, Yue Feng knows the follow-up direction of the battle very well.
As expected, what Yue Feng said was that after the Red Army was unable to attack for a long time and reached a stalemate, the Red Army commander ordered the soldiers to use local materials to make a heavy catapult.
During the third and a half hour of the counterattack, heavy catapults joined the battlefield.
Only a muffled sound was heard, the catapult was activated, and stones the size of millstones were thrown into the air, and then fell into the position of the blue defenders.
The large rocks were extremely lethal, and the erected arrow tower was damaged a lot, which significantly reduced the fire suppression in mid-air.
On the fourth hour of launching the counterattack, the red side’s attack came again!
This attack finally made some progress. Although the casualties were still huge, it was finally able to advance slowly.
The bunkers and arrow towers near the forward positions were removed and cleaned up bit by bit. Every time they took a step forward, dozens of corpses of soldiers were left behind. The battle was extremely fierce.
Although Yue Feng acted like a fool and was very comfortable in the bunker, he was actually paying attention to the changes in the situation on the battlefield all the time. He found that the bunker where he was hiding was a bit dangerous, so he led his team members to evacuate in advance and moved to another place deeper.
In a bunker, the situation is always on the edge of the battlefield, but there is not much risk.
The battle lasted from morning to evening. The second line of defense was pushed forward at least a hundred meters, and a large number of fortifications were destroyed. However, the red side also paid a heavy price.
When the sky darkened, the red side blew the horn to withdraw troops, and the battlefield fell into a brief period of peace.
"The red side has retreated! I guess it won't be long before they give in! We still have at least 150 meters of defenses. If we want to break in, even if they all die, it won't be enough for them!" Deeper Blue
Through the constant reconnaissance of the Fire Eagle, he saw that the enemy soldiers retreated. He breathed a sigh of relief and slowly analyzed.
Yue Feng grinned after hearing this: "You made a wrong judgment this time! It is impossible to admit defeat. On the contrary, our fortification advantage cannot be reflected at night, so a night battle is a good opportunity!
Let brothers pay attention, there may be a decisive battle tonight! Whether you can survive this period of time will determine the success or failure of this time!"
…
At around eight o'clock in the evening, the red side's counterattack army, which had been preparing for more than two hours, launched a new round of fighting.
In the red camp, a caster wrapped in a blue-gray robe slowly rose into the air. After chanting a spell for at least ten seconds, the magic elements quickly condensed in the air, and there was a small figure in the air.
The ball of light.
The light of the light ball is not dazzling, but it is an effective lighting method in the dark night. You can clearly see the outline of the defensive position. Fighting in this environment is better than just relying on the darkness.
Meng is more reliable.
Eight balls of light condensed in front and back, and the attack horn sounded again!
Unlike the blue side who had been defending and counterattacking during the day, when the red side launched an attack, the blue side's long-lost attack horn also sounded!
Ding! The counterattack has entered the final stage of the decisive battle! All free soldiers will enter the battlefield to fight for victory!
Special reminder! This decisive battle will determine the outcome of the camp battle. The losing camp and all surviving players will be automatically eliminated!
Seeing the system prompt, Yue Feng grinned.
Well, after waiting for so long, I finally got serious about it!
