After confirming the launch of the battle mission, Liu Yifei's regiment was immediately teleported to a small stronghold on the front line called "Pass".
However, as soon as everyone walked out of the teleported white light, they were suddenly turned upside down by what they saw in front of them.
The camp was dilapidated, as if it had just experienced a doomsday catastrophe. The camp was filled with wounded people, broken limbs, blood everywhere, the corpses of companions that had not yet been cleaned up, and the air that was floating in the wind that made people almost feel...
You can smell the low morale...
"Uh-huh, aren't you talking about the front-line tug-of-war mission? Why does this feel like you're at the wounded barracks at the rear..."
Someone in the team murmured in disbelief. There were even a few female warrior players who had dreams of "female knights" similar to Lei Hanxin's. They immediately began to retching uncontrollably. Many male players also had expressions on their faces.
Ashen, he was quite unable to accept the horrific sight in front of him.
Liu Yifei immediately wanted Angel to come forward and treat the wounded.
But it is a pity that these are obviously not injuries in official battles. They are just "plots" arranged by the system and cannot be treated by angels.
In such a delayed time, many soldiers were dying one after another as far as the eye could see, and many of them were constantly pouring out large amounts of blood from their mouths, sometimes mixed with fragments of internal organs, further aggravating the situation.
Due to the bloody smell in the air, even Liu Yifei, who was accustomed to big scenes, couldn't help but frown frequently when he saw these scenes.
When all the players were a little sluggish and at a loss, an NPC with the military rank of "Commander" walked up quickly. Then he began to briefly describe the situation in front of everyone:
They are an army stationed in the northeastern part of Hyjal's temporary defense system. They have just been attacked by enemies coming from the front line. Although they successfully repelled the enemies, the military camp was severely damaged and most of the soldiers were killed. Now they have
It is temporarily difficult to move and needs to wait for support from the rear.
Liu Yifei and his team play the role of the last remaining "independent regiment" in the stronghold. Now, they must rush to the "Tooth Blade" outpost further ahead to remind their comrades there and tell them to be careful behind their backs.
enemy's sneak attack.
And if the Yaren stronghold has been lost, the task of Liu Yifei and his independent regiment is to escort the "garrison commander" there to return smoothly to report the situation.
"Fuck~
A full-scale army was beaten like this in a defensive battle?
How many enemies are there?"
"Yes, let us go up as an independent group? Doesn't this mean we are going to die..."
The player group couldn't help but buzz for a while.
"Okay! Stop talking nonsense! Everyone mount up! Let's charge quickly!"
Liu Yifei, however, without saying a word, directly used the corpses in the camp to summon a corrupt flying dragon, and then rushed out with all the angels.
"Remember! Play your role! You are soldiers now! Our mission is to perform the mission!"
Amid Liu Yifei's scolding, everyone mounted their horses one after another, and with the shouts and shouts of smoke and dust rising up, they rushed out of the stronghold...
I have to sigh here at the two thousand excellent war horses obtained from the military department!
These are all warrior players who have been assigned war horses before. In the past few days, even players who have never ridden a horse have fully experienced the great joy of becoming a "knight". At this moment, they are no longer unfamiliar with riding a horse to attack.
Increase your speed as much as possible within the limit, making the entire army highly mobile!
However, if you want to perform a "reinforcement" mission, it's not just about being fast.
A few minutes after they broke out of the stronghold, they suddenly saw a demon army moving north.
Looking at their marching route, it's very likely that they are the wave of demon legions that were just repulsed by the Yakou Fortress, and looking at their posture... any idiot knows what they want to do!
But their number...damn!
A little too much, right?
There are nearly two thousand?
Liu Yifei counted roughly in the air, and his face couldn't help but change!
When he left the pass stronghold, he had not thought that he would catch up with the demon army that had just withdrawn due to its speed. However, judging from the condition of the previous stronghold and the extent of the battle damage, since the opponent could be beaten away, it would not matter how strong it was.
It should be too complete, right?
However, there are still two thousand people!
Damn~
How did the garrison troops repel the other side?
Just when Liu Yifei was wondering whether the system had increased the difficulty of the mission because the number of players on their side had increased too much, the demon army moving northward had apparently discovered their "independent group"
.
As expected, the 2,000-strong demon brigade immediately changed its marching direction and began to set up a defensive formation facing this side.
"Everyone! Remember to identify your unit number, and be sure to keep your identity in mind when taking action! Act according to orders! If anyone makes a stupid mistake, go to the back line and slowly climb the mission! Do you hear me?
!”
"Hear it!"
"Okay~ everyone, prepare to charge!"
Following Liu Yifei's command, all the more than 200 knight players present replaced their assault rifles.
This is one of the military supplies that Liu Yifei specifically requested from the military department. The purpose is to arm a cavalry regiment with truly powerful charging capabilities!
These "assault lances" are much stronger than those rough guys that players have forged on their own. They are all exclusive equipment of the lowest rare quality. They all have the attributes of strengthening the charging effect and increasing the damage caused by the charge. They are definitely a must for cavalry.
One of the prepared weapons!
Suddenly, more than two hundred huge assault lances were mounted on the side of the war horse. Not only Liu Yifei, who was observing from above, felt an inexplicable surge of heart, but even all the players couldn't help but turn red-eyed, even if they hadn't actually started killing yet.
Just the invisible atmosphere on the battlefield that lingers in their hearts has made them devote themselves to their roles extremely seriously!
Before, there were some players who were laughing and joking, but now they were holding their lances high, lowering their bodies, and focusing on the target in front of them. Each of them was as focused as a wolf about to hunt for prey, and the playful smiles they had just now had long since disappeared.
The more than 200 players here are either serious war maniacs in the game who like this kind of grand scene, or they are romantics who are obsessed with knighthood dreams.
And as this is the first battle of their "knight" career on a real battlefield, how can they not be excited?
"First team! Extreme charge! Thirty degrees to the left front!"
There was a cold shout in the command channel, and the fifty knight players in the team immediately accelerated and rushed forward!
When the speed of the war horse reaches its ultimate charging speed of thirty meters per second, even if the warrior's "charge" skill is not turned on, the howling wind on the side of the war horse will form a looming stance field, helping to withstand most of the attacks from the front and the
Side physical attack.
However, there is no shortage of Gog creatures in this demon army, and the charge has just begun. Those Gog smiled evilly and started rubbing the fireballs in their hands, preparing to give these rookie knights who are not afraid of death a hard blow~
"Ho~~~"
There were several roars in succession, and the next moment, before the knights could enter Gog's fire coverage area, several huge groups of red flames suddenly flashed from the opponent's army!
The next moment, more than a dozen huge figures looked at the gap and flashed into the group of charging troops. Before the shocked people could react, they raised the huge scythe in their hands and unleashed a vicious slash!
If it is a serious and well-trained charge, the knights must pay careful attention to the gaps between each other. They must selectively adjust the gaps according to the opponent.
For units that can cover attacks, the gap should be larger to avoid being spread over a large area by attacks such as Gog~
For example, in response to some arrow rain-type attacks, the knights should close the gap appropriately and form a tight charging air wave between each other to reduce the impact of the arrow rain from above as much as possible.
However, what the cavalry is more afraid of is the sudden huge blow from the side or even behind!
And the "big devil" among the enemies is obviously a master who can do this kind of job!
With just a flash and a fire slash, more than ten people in the fifty-man charging force were already killed. As soon as the big devil took action, these "knights" who were actually on the battlefield for the first time were immediately beaten and fled.
"Don't mess up the formation! Keep the attack target of each team unchanged! The fallen players will entangle the demons on the spot, and the cavalry in the rear formation will go 30 degrees to the right. Move forward at full speed!"
Liu Yifei's calm command suppressed the small commotion and uneasiness in the team at the right time, and each team still acted according to the order. However, one of the angels quickly rushed out to take over the big demons that were in the way, and at the same time replaced those who were injured.
The fallen knight player is treated.
Swish swish~
The next moment, the compressed fireballs in the hands of the Goges in the military formation were shot out one after another. At one time, more than 300 compressed fireballs were almost connected into one, and the entire battlefield was reflected in a flash of red!
Boom boom boom!!!
The successive explosions set off violent waves of dust and fireworks. For a moment, it was as if the entire squadron was completely engulfed, and even the knights in the group who had started to turn behind couldn't help but scream in surprise!
However, the next moment, the knights howled again and burst out of the smoke and flames, but they were almost unscathed!
Liu Yifei calculated the knight's route from the air to his advantage. Almost brushing the boundaries of the attack range of the Goges, this detachment of knights broke through the enemy's interception!
Seeing that the enemy seemed to be planning to attack from behind, the demonic formation that had been firmly established immediately moved sideways. The Goges jumped and rubbed the fireballs in their hands, and continued to release the fireballs in their hands towards a group of knights who began to turn gradually.
Firepower!
And at the same time.
A large number of flying fork demons also began to concentrate their firepower on the knights who were facing upwards. Countless sharp short-handled flying forks flew out like raindrops, constantly impacting the knights and making clanging sounds, but they did not cause anything.
substantial harm.
However, before the knights on the left could successfully make a detour, Liu Yifei directed the knights of the second team to charge forward, with the goal of passing by the Devils' team on the right.
Then came the third team...the fourth team...
Under the command of Liu Yifei, the entire 200-man knight troop formed four sharp arrows. They were like bloodthirsty sharks wandering around their prey on the battlefield. They kept cruising, approaching again and again, provoking the targeted target.
But no matter whether the opponent showed any flaws or not, he did not pounce on him and start a fierce fight~
Liu Yifei is getting used to it, taking control, and even more tempering!
This is also the first time for him to command player cavalry to conduct high-speed maneuvers on the battlefield, and he also needs a process of adaptation.
At the same time, he was adjusting the rhythm of the battlefield bit by bit, looking for the opponent's attack rhythm point, constantly attracting the opponent's firepower concentration, and looking for the most suitable fighter plane.
And the most important thing is that Liu Yifei is allowing these players to be trained and adapted to the heart-racing feeling of hanging on a thread while moving straight ahead against the enemy's line of fire!
Get used to the danger and panic of being knocked off your horse by the opponent's powerful assault unit~
This is a feeling that every soldier must learn to adapt to.
Now they have a large number of angel guards. It is suitable for them to quickly familiarize themselves with the rhythm of this battlefield. It will be much better than them dancing around at a loss after being defeated by the enemy in a real battle against time~
The tactic of disturbing the enemy like a shark parade lasted for about three or four minutes.
At the moment when a detachment once again brushed against the enemy's line of fire and began to withstand the enemy's pursuit, Liu Yifei suddenly made a series of command adjustments in the command channel, but ordered the second and third detachments to penetrate directly to the edge of the enemy's formation!
The enemy has been teased back and forth more than ten times. The inertial mechanical attacks made them subconsciously think that they have at least three chances to pursue this time. Although they are still not guaranteed to kill an opponent's knight, they can do a good job.
It will cause a containment blow, so that the other party does not dare to get too close.
But right now!
The knights who were supposed to slip by the sideline suddenly made an emergency adjustment and turned a slightly larger curve at an almost impossible angle to charge towards the demons' main formation!
And almost at the same time, two other cavalry regiments also attacked!
The demons suddenly panicked!
They were sending off one troop after another, and the uninterrupted attack rhythm one after another made them suddenly not know which troop to attack next!
Should we continue the previous attack target...or turn to attack the two iron cavalry that are running towards us at a cross angle?
And at the same time, the fourth detachment, which had already surrounded the rear left wing at some unknown time, suddenly rushed towards the big devil detachment, which had been restrained in place and had not moved!
And almost at the same time that the cavalry collided with the big demon, the holy light of the angels had completely exploded towards Gog, where the demon army was concentrated!!!
It turns out that the attention of the demon formation has been attracted by the knight troops running back and forth around it, but it was not discovered that the large demon battle group, which has been controlled by a small number of players and angels, has unknowingly moved to the edge of the long-range attack range~
Now the Angel Corps was able to directly attack the Goges with a slight flutter of wings!
The sudden impact from the holy light caused the demons' bodies to erupt with intense silver-white holy flames!
The attack from the angels obviously made the demons extremely intolerable, so their attention was severely distracted. They were suddenly besieged by four enemies. This demon army lacking heroic leadership has fallen into complete chaos!
Although this chaos was short-lived, it was an absolutely fatal omission on the ever-changing battlefield!
Next moment~
The neighing of war horses, the roar of demons, and the horrifying reverberation of broken bones and flesh fill the dust!
Even Liu Yifei, who personally directed this scene, felt horrified when he heard it!
The charge speed of the cavalry has already been increased to the limit!
A detachment of fifty cavalry "rubbed" along the edge of the enemy's formation...
There is almost no big impact on the speed, just a slight deceleration invisible to the naked eye, but one or more corpses are already hung on each assault rifle!
Even a fourth-level powerful backbone demon like the Horned Demon is as fragile as paper when faced with a fully accelerated cavalry charge. In an instant, he has become a skewer on a lance!
The angle chosen by the cavalry to cut in was extremely precise, and they easily wiped out at least two hundred of the opponent's soldiers, but at the same time they continued to rush out at an undiminished speed~
Three rounds of continuous charges!
The enemy's military formation seemed to have been touched by three big hands. The "cut" position was unusually smooth, but the size of the military formation was reduced by almost half!
This is not over yet~
The enemy subconsciously pursued the knights who had caused them heavy losses, but a group of snow-white wings had already penetrated into an absolutely dangerous distance!
Compared with the terrifying absolute lethality carried by the knights when they charge, the angels may not be that violent. The sense of violence that can tear everything apart, but their own strength is even more terrifying!
After a series of bombardments of holy light, the angels simply broke into the demon group with their swords, cutting through nearly a third of the enemy's remaining troops at a weird angle! Then they annihilated less than half of the enemy's remaining troops at an astonishing speed.
Strength. Then the knights who gathered around them for the second time suppressed the entire enemy's remaining troops!
The holy light flashes, the crossbow bolts fly, the sword rises and falls, and the fireball explodes!
The shouts of humans mixed with the curses and roars of demons turned this grassland into a red hell~
The grass here was almost soaked with the blood of humans or demons, and the rich smell of blood and weird sulfur smell in the air made people almost want to vomit!
However, players who are already murderous cannot consider this at all!
All they know is that the number of enemies is decreasing rapidly!
I am gaining military honors all the time!
The feeling of cutting the enemy's flesh when the weapon was raised made them feel like a dream, but the angels' loud chants and the healing skills that kept flashing on their bodies proved that this was a very real reality!
They are carrying out a massacre~
A counter-massacre of 500 people against 2,000 people...
In terms of difficulty, this battle is not a big problem for Liu Yifei~
In fact, if he is willing, as long as he releases a large number of his spiritual servants, they can completely destroy the enemy from the front without having to go around in such trouble!
However, Liu Yifei felt that the time spent was so worth it~
Especially after the battle, when those players are still immersed in the incredible charge and sudden glorious victory, especially when they face the bloody scene caused by their own "hands" for the first time and show their "fortitude".
After seeing his expression, Liu Yifei knew that these "cavalry" could finally look real~
This is baptism, a baptism that every recruit must go through after entering the battlefield!
It is not a feeling that can be experienced by watching a video or listening to someone talk about it. It must be an unusual passion and calmness that can only be experienced through personal experience!
The kind of fanaticism when a group fights at close range, the kind of chaos where you can't remember anything else except waving weapons...
In a close-range fighting conflict, there is very little space left for each individual, let alone technical movements such as flying a kite. Even the space for releasing skills is very small!
In addition to simply slashing the enemy in front of them, each "soldier" can at most twist its body in a small range to avoid the enemy's counterattack weapons or claws.
That kind of "frenzy" that combines fear, excitement, and impulse is simply difficult for outsiders to understand~
And calm...
It's the kind of exhaustion when the enthusiasm dissipates, the kind of disbelief after looking at the result of the fight that you caused~
Just now in the stronghold, everyone couldn't bear to see the bloody wounded and sick, but at this moment, all the uncomfortable reactions have disappeared!
Because they know very well how terrifying and ferocious these stumps and limbs were just a moment ago!
In fact, only dead enemies are always the cutest!
Compared to their previous fierceness, I'm afraid these players would rather they remain in this "bloody and terrifying" state forever~
After experiencing such close combat, the "rookies" were finally able to grow up!
They will no longer be confused or timid. Facing the enemy, they will only know how to better kill the enemy and protect themselves...
This is the first lesson they learn after going to the battlefield. However, Liu Yifei understands that in order to truly "graduate" from this class, these "new recruits" need to undergo more baptisms~
Of course, they are players, they are immortal, and they have the chance to come back again and again~
But what about the NPCs living in this world?
Those brave soldiers who only have one life on the battlefield?
Okay~
Let these warriors, who pursue the ancient path of blood and fire, life and glory of their ancestors, use the wailing and despair of their opponents to pay tribute to the heroes who once shed their lives on this land!
This is the only thought in Liu Yifei's mind at this moment, and it is also the eulogy he hopes to send to those soldiers whose heroes are still entrenched here and have not yet rested in peace~
