Parallel Armies——The Sound of Turning Tide Chapter 59 The First Battle Against the Army
"Obviously, let's deal with the group of infantry closest to us first. According to the moving speed of the magician troops, there should be plenty of time." Sophia said.
"I will provide you with support when the time comes. Come on, everyone." Zate's Hymn has made great progress recently and can produce two different buffs at the same time.
"Overall, it's still not optimistic. We have to cut in as soon as possible." Karin wiped the sweat on the shield handle.
"But first let's deal with the closest infantry team. After that, we can decide whether to ambush the magician formation or proactively raid them. In any case, the formation of magicians will still cause a lot of trouble," Sofia said.
.
"Then let's do what Sophia said just now, first deal with the infantry here, and then ambush the magicians in the forest. How about that?" Zate asked.
"Well, in that case, let's act quickly." Dinefel arrived at the predetermined location.
Sofia assigned the task of reconnaissance and sneaked towards the infantry formation.
When a group of people were about to arrive at the enemy's area, a new and more detailed sandbox screen came out. This battalion of enemies seemed to be breaking out of camp in the open space of the forest and preparing to set off. One battalion was divided into five teams, and this was a good place to defeat them one by one.
Chance.
It was already afternoon, and seeing that the battle was about to begin, Nina applied a boosting magical ability to the four of them.
Although Sofia wanted to figure out the distance between each chess piece on the sand table, she couldn't actually judge the specific distance without a scale, and there was no grid on the new sand table. But she thought there would be at least a kilometer interval, otherwise it would be useless to set up camp like this.
Meaningless.
Sophia wanted to make a sneak attack, but she wasn't sure whether it was possible. After all, she didn't know how dense the trees on the sand table were. She could only confirm the details after they actually arrived. Now she could only take a step at a time to see.
Sophia cast a spell on herself when she was about to approach, planning to approach the hill first. After looking at the situation on the hill, she decided to go around and attack the team at the bottom left of the group on the sand table.
Following Sofia, the group of people successfully arrived at the foot of the hill under the cover of trees. There were several sentries on the hill. If they could occupy this hill, which was about fifteen meters high, the group could take advantage of the long-range advantage.
The east side of the hill has few woods and the terrain is flat, while the west side of the hill is rugged but the trees can hide your figure. There are three sentries that Sofia can see, about a hundred feet apart.
Sophia moved softly and lowered her voice, and asked the big men if they could bring a small number of people and Dinefel to carry out a sneak attack to destroy the place and leave anyone alive. She and Karin provided long-range support from a distance.
But gunshots or explosions would undoubtedly disturb other enemies. If the group wanted to occupy the high ground without making any noise, they would have to make the three sentries unconscious at the same time, and she was not sure whether there were hidden sentries.
Sophia, who was a complete novice in human combat, was very unsuited to this kind of war battle that relied on intelligence to gain an advantage. In the end, she made a simple and crude decision to rely on quality and strength to crush her opponents.
"Then, Dinefir and Nina will take six people to this hill and remove the sentry point there. You can deal with the sentry over there according to the situation and keep them alive to torture for information." Sofia gave instructions.
Dinefir replied "Okay."
"Where are the remaining people? Let Zate bring more people to charge forward, and we can look for opportunities to attack from the flanks?" Kalin asked.
"Twelve people go to the eastern forest, lure the troops there, and bring flares." Sofia did not answer Carlin but continued to give instructions.
"I have no problem. If I can, I will sing hymns to increase the enemy's attraction to our side." Zate said that he could.
"Okay, Zate, you go with them and bring more medicine. You need to attract attention. You are bound to be attacked. If you want to escape, fire the flare immediately." Sophia immediately continued: "Dinefel is also there.
Bring a flare and fire it immediately when the problem is solved. Carlin should be able to detect it, right?"
"I'll know if you throw them away. I can only keep two at the moment. If you think the situation is wrong, throw them away." Karin took out two flares and distributed them to Zate and Dinefir.
"Yeah, okay." Zate put away the flare.
"The rest of the people will follow Carlin and me. Our team will enter from the other side of the hill and hang in the back. Once you fire the signal flare, we will attack you in tandem." Sofia thought this was enough.
"Wait a minute, the number of people going to sentry seems a bit too much, right? I think it can be reduced to four, and the east also needs Nina's support." Zate raised an objection, and Sophia felt it was true what she said.
"The sentries should be the first to come into contact with our people. There is no point in going too many." Carlin also agreed.
"Then let Dinefel and a brother go over to the sentry side. How about adding the extra people to the team on the east side?" Zate suggested.
"Well... In this case, then Dinefel will take two people, and Nina will take four people to join Zate." Sophia is not someone who cannot listen to suggestions. "Our two teams will take a detour, and Dinefel will take a detour.
Phil will take action in two minutes. The sentries are not strong, so I estimate that you can complete the raid and subdue them within three minutes, right?"
"But on the other side of the hill, I have an idea. After Dinefel attacks the sentry, Sofia and Carlin will go over to use long-range support, and Dinefel will follow suit to sneak attack on the enemy. After all, the sentinel side is temporarily unavailable.
We will provide support, and the enemy forces at the foot of the hill may give priority to solving the matter at hand." Zate continued to suggest.
"Let's do this, just in case. Me, Karin, and Dinefel went to the hillside and quickly subdued the sentries there, and then we provided long-range support on the other side of the hillside. Zate and Nina each led ten people and two
To side-team, Nina brings flares here. In addition to encircling this team, she also wants to prevent them from escaping and joining other teams. If there is an emergency, fire the flares and get closer to the hillside so that we can provide long-range support."
Then Sophia asked Richard if they had any optimization suggestions, after all, they were more familiar with war.
"Sister, I think it's okay, but it's better to have more people on the west side, and then let the team on the east side attract attention first." Richard gave his revised opinion.
"Bait? Okay, then change it." Sophia nodded.
"First of all, we should consider that the other party can send signals in some ways, so we must not attack the sentry first. Especially there may be hidden sentries, and we can use the cover of the forest to act." Richard said.
Sophia asked about the methods of sending signals on the battlefield. But gunpowder signal arrows are also a very common reporting tool. From the beginning, Richard did not think that a few people had taken down this group of soldiers without the other groups noticing.
The mortal sentry's visual reconnaissance is not very good for a few people, and the physical fitness of the big men is very high, the other party will not notice the group of people moving slowly in the woods.
"Well, you are more familiar with this aspect, so I will listen to you. I'll see if you find a secret sentry then. As for the distribution, how about fifteen people in the west and five people in the east?" Sophia asked.
"No problem, you and Sophia should pay attention to find the hidden sentry, just in case." Zate said.
[It’s good to have choices...] After discussing this set of tactics, Carlin felt a little tired.
"Okay." Dinefel didn't think these soldiers could break through his psychic shield.
"As long as there are more people on the front battlefield, we will know it after we touch it all the way from behind." Kalin said.
The final distribution was that the west side consisted of Nina and the fifteen-person escort team, the east side consisted of Zate and the five-person escort team, and Kaling, Sofia, and Dinefir headed to the hill.
After Zate and the escort team arrived at the designated location, they could already see about a hundred people breaking out of the simple camp, and they also discovered Zate and others.
Zate asked the brothers to pretend to be reconnaissance, and at the same time dance a sacrificial dance to add magical buffs to the brothers, so that they could escape immediately when the enemy came over.
A strange scene appeared on the battlefield. The regular army was stunned for a moment and began to talk about it. Then a loud voice shouted: "The enemy is attacking () the enemy is attacking! The second and third corps go out to fight, and the target is the priest!" Then forty people and two corps rushed forward.
When they came over, Zate and the others could only retreat.
Carlin, Sofia, and Dinefel heard some sounds coming from the enemy camp. The three sentries looked to the other side of the mountain. It was an excellent opportunity for the three of them to make a sneak attack.
"It's probably starting over there, let's take action too." Carlin raised his gun.
Dinefel's magic stick changed into a long knife [Let's solve it quickly, now.]
"Okay, let's go." Sophia used magic skills to enhance her physical fitness, and then released spells continuously to increase the speed of the three of them.
You climbed to the top of the hill in no time. At this time, there were two secret sentries on the hill preparing to release flares.
Carlin raised his hand and fired, and Sofia shot a magic ray. The two of them hit the arm of the secret sentry respectively. The missed signal bomb exploded on the hill, and the five sentries were knocked unconscious, but it also stung three people.
's eyes.
There was a commotion in the camp under the hill due to explosions and gunfire, and this was a good opportunity to attack. Nina released the enhancement magic on the leader Mero and several escorts, and the real battle began.
Fifteen big men went up and smashed them, instantly defeating one enemy group and severely injuring four others.
Sophia released the fireball spell, then tore open a page with a spell scroll in a blank magic book and fired another fireball spell. The burst of flames burned all the soldiers in the enemy's second group, and almost all of them lost their ability to fight.
Then Carlin aimed at Siwu, who was currently the most seriously injured, and fired an explosive ammunition. This was the first time that he took out the special short-barreled gun and used it. It fired magic bullets instead of metal slugs. And this
The gun can automatically store magic power and produce explosions at critical moments that can rival the fireball technique.
