Chapter 875 Guardians of the past, Transia needs you! (Part 1)
The combat plan submitted by the player staff was approved, so the five pairs of wheels that temporarily replaced Lao Qin as the commander immediately took action and began to mobilize the players through the first batch of "students" who had been assigned to the defense line as commanders.
Participate in this action.
Posts and video descriptions detailing the battle also appeared on forums and taverns. In order to "stabilize people's hearts" and refute the rumors that he died and therefore questioned the safety of "Real World", Lao Qin personally
The video provides a general explanation for this operation.
Why do you do this? What is the significance of doing this?
What is the logic of the underlying construction and what are the key points of the top-level design? They are basically broken down and explained clearly to the players who want to participate in the action.
This is by no means a meaningless act of suicide.
If everything goes well, and with a little bit of luck, this battle will be enough to cause irreparable losses to the increasingly crazier Jackals and greatly enhance the defender's strategic initiative.
Most importantly, this time will boost the morale of the Maginot Line, which is currently in danger.
In a superstitious quasi-medieval environment, all epic wars are more or less related to these gods and ghosts. What's more, the players are not promoting feudal superstition, they can really be resurrected in three days.
Lao Qin's question is really classic. Look at how much noise the last person who could be resurrected in three days made, you can naturally know that if this thing is used, the wonderful reaction it can produce can definitely dominate the direction of a war.
However, even without Lao Qin's explanation, players were still very enthusiastic about this counterattack.
The players didn't think so much. Their thinking was very simple. After all, we were all brothers who lived in the trenches. More than 500 people were tricked by jackals this time. Who could endure such a great frustration?
That is to say, the giant shark's group of war madmen were dispatched to participate in the God-killing operation. Otherwise, the Vam brothers, who acted faster than they thought, would have launched a fierce counterattack against the jackal artificial soldiers. Now that Lao Qin is willing to take the initiative, everyone
It’s not too late to be happy.
Now I'm just waiting to give him a hard time!
Let Xu Gesen know what "Immortal Army" means! Hey, we players have never been afraid of anyone in terms of ruthlessness!
While the player community began to prepare enthusiastically for the big operation in four days, the resistance on Transia's side has not stopped.
The situation on the defense line was rapidly slipping in the direction that Commander Kudel was most worried about. After the success of the insidious operation that killed more than 500 players at a time, the jackal warlords began to copy the gourd, and they combined the kobolds and
Explosives and traditional meteorism are tied together in a wild way.
Not only will they send kobolds to dig traps and bury explosives, but they will even send kobolds crazy engineers to blow up the road when the attack does not go well. The kobolds, a servant army that originally had no advantages except quantity, suddenly became very popular.
, and their status in the jackal system has actually increased a lot.
In the past, I could only eat bones, but now I can eat at least a piece of meat before being sent to die.
For the kobolds, this life is no different from before. Anyway, people used to die when fighting with the jackal master. After the explosives were released, fewer kobolds died, so the kobolds also died. Tennai fell in love with this kind of big bang that would explode.
This dangerous thing even has a tendency to chase after the candle's sacred place in their hearts.
I can only say that this is an out-and-out black humor.
No one knows how many explosives Hugersen still has, but the key to this is that no one dares to gamble.
Therefore, after paying the first wave of casualties, the entire Maginot Line entered a passive defense mode overnight. It became very risky to send large groups of soldiers to engage in close combat with Jackals unless necessary.
Kudel, the defensive line commander, realized that Murphy's concerns were coming true.
Fortunately for the locals, they have the determination to protect their homeland and dare to draw their swords when encountering jackals. However, the troops from other countries who came to support were obviously hesitant, and even the Crimean Fortress People's hearts are floating all over there.
The tribunes who had doubts about the players' tactics before will now start to hope that the battle will proceed as soon as possible. If morale is allowed to continue to decline, the situation will become worse.
At the same time, Scarlet Consul Miriam also fulfilled the order of militia recruitment issued by Murphy, and the recruitment order with three seals from the Administrative Office, the People's Army and the Maginot Line Command was sent to the Transia region In every administrative village in.
The militiamen were assembled by civil servants in each village, led by local militia captains to various assembly points, or transported by boat or car to the towns behind the Maginot Line for training.
Of course, not everyone is willing to participate in the war, but unfortunately, war has long been a part of life for the Transians, and hundreds of years of suffering have shaped their savage and upright character.
Those who evade conscription don't even need to send people from the Ministry of Military Justice. The old men in the same village will organize people to catch them and catch them with harsh words. They will be whipped in front of the villagers first, so that everyone can see the fate of cowards, and then they will be tied up. Send them to the front line with your hands like escorting prisoners.
Such a fierce folk custom is definitely not because Transians like to fight so much.
It's just because they have lived in the tragic life of dying if they don't fight for many years. When you get used to something, you naturally won't resist it.
What's more, although the vampire lord this time has only ruled Transia for more than eight months, he and his officials have shown a commitment to establishing and maintaining order that the previous lords would never bother to do. thing.
Although the lives of the people on this land are far from prosperous, at least after the chaos is calmed down, everyone feels that a beautiful peace has arrived, and no one with any brains would want to actively destroy it.
The simplest example is that the jackals and kobold gangs that used to cause trouble in the wild have been cleared away, which means that farmers do not always have to carry a knife with them when they go out to work, which means that small businessmen dare to leave their villages to go
A small trade in a neighboring village means parents don't have to lock their children at home at night, which means raising livestock is no longer a risky business.
In the past, the gentlemen would only care about whether the people in Cadman City had enough to eat, but now Mr. Murphy will buy food from Her Majesty the Wolf Lady and deliver it to every village. Although it is not enough for everyone to eat and drink, at least it can
I guarantee that no one will starve to death again.
There are also the officials sent to various villages by Baron Miriam. Although they also have problems of one kind or another, and although they occasionally show a domineering side, they are much better than the previous officials.
Well, in the past, there was only one kind of official in the border villages of Transia, and that was the tax collector with whips and instruments of torture.
The current Transian officials are performing so well. It is said that there is something called "attendance" and "promotion mechanism" that restrains them. People think it is an obscure magic, and they are all spreading rumors about Murphy.
The Lord is a very powerful mage. He can summon ten thousand invisible eyes every full moon night to disperse in every village in Transia to monitor whether his officials are working seriously.
He also has a pair of ears given by the gods, and can hear the quietest complaints of every subject in the wind.
But Mr. Murphy is a kind vampire!
He never punishes his own people. His targets have always been the thieves who steal his money and the villains who bully his loyal people. Once he catches his pigtails, it will be difficult for those officials who are misbehaving.
There are also rumors that people with noses and eyes say that Mr. Murphy has a secret army called "The Sheriff", which is composed of well-trained vampire executioners!
Whenever someone makes a mistake, they will immediately appear like a ghost. Under the leadership of those foreigners who always like to jump around and run around, they will accurately find the perpetrator, execute them in public, and then escort them to the Maginot Line for hard labor.
.
Most of these rumors are nonsense.
The superstitious Transians cannot understand the efficient office system established by the computing orbs, but this does not prevent them from using their own eyes to see the changes in this land for more than eight months, although the harsh wartime system has been running for three
It's been months, but miraculously the locals didn't complain too much.
Haha, a harsh wartime system?
Who are you kidding? This is much easier than what they had before!
This fully proves that as long as the starting point is low enough, anything you do can be called a great achievement.
This also fully proves that Mr. Murphy is another kind of benevolent vampire who is rare to see in ten thousand years. If there are still people who still don’t believe that Mr. Murphy is a good person, then the locals will give more vivid examples.
For example, you see, after ruling here for eight months, Lord Murphy only collects a symbolic amount of food grown in the fields as taxes, and only collected it once. Isn't this kind act not enough to prove that Mo Mo
Is Mr. Fei a kind-hearted vampire?
Well, of course, Murphy also has something to say about this.
It's not that he and Miriam don't want to collect taxes.
Mainly because this place is so poor!
In that tax payment a few months ago, the taxes collected by several administrative villages in Transia were not as much as the commercial taxes paid by Lao Huo's casino and the Blood Rat Gang's black market in two months.
With Her Majesty's nearly free food aid and the threat of black disaster hanging over her head, Murphy would not bother to scratch the surface no matter how idle he was.
What's more, he is really busy and has no time to bully the people.
Murphy did not have a political system to evaluate whether his rule over Transia was successful, but Miriam told him that he was a very good ruler, so Murphy, who had basically done nothing, viewed himself in the same way.
, and judging from the speed of the militia recruitment, Murphy feels that maybe he is really a good ruler?
Well, this is really a ghost!
Thinking about it carefully, I clearly didn't do anything. The dirty work was all done by Miriam, administrative players and civil servants. Huh, this is probably the legendary "rule by inaction", right?
What a genius I am!
But the tens of thousands of recruitment orders issued by Miriam under Murphy's order were not just for the militia. Some people with special status also received the recruitment orders. What's even more outrageous is that some people took the initiative to ask for assistance on the defense line.
.
For example, Miriam’s captain of the bodyguard, Elder Norman.
"Are you sure you want to go?"
In the office of the administrative building of Scarlet Castle, Miriam looked at Norman in front of her very seriously, and she said:
"The situation is actually not bad enough to require the Archon's guards to step onto the battlefield. The recruitment this time is mainly to cope with the 'Three Day Miracle' operation that the foreigners are about to launch. It is the counterattack that Lord Murphy has prepared for his own defense section.
Supplementary work done in advance.
To be honest, militiamen do not necessarily need to set foot on the battlefield.
This is more like an armed march to stabilize people's hearts than actual action."
"You have never been on the battlefield, so your understanding of war is too idealistic, Your Majesty the Consul."
Norman, who was wearing an iron mask to cover his face that had been burned during the ten years of war, said hoarsely:
"If Mr. Murphy decides to launch such a large-scale mobilization, it means that the situation on the Maginot Line is likely to deteriorate. He may have given such a mild explanation just to let you concentrate on internal affairs. Please believe me, the militia
They'll come in handy!
This is also the reason why I took the initiative to apply to leave the security rear area.
The ongoing battle there will determine the direction and outcome of the war. It requires every warrior who dares to take up arms and every defender to sacrifice their lives.
I have experienced too many wars, and those in the past made me feel tired, helpless and desperate. During the entire ten years of war, I could not feel any joy at all, only pain.
That's my god's punishment
But this war is different. I have seen a lot of changes in the past few months with you. These changes make me believe that you and Governor Murphy have the ability to bring about a rise that adapts to the people of this suffering land.
.
I will go where I should go as a real soldier rather than a prisoner of war. Only our fight on the front line now can allow people like you to better stay behind and work for the future of this land.
.
If you all go to the battlefield, the little gains Transia has finally achieved will be wiped out.
The most despairing thing is not that there is no hope, but that when hope is seen it is ruthlessly extinguished."
Norman sighed, took off the emblem of the Archon Guard Commander that he had wiped clean, and placed it on Miriam's table. He said in a deep voice:
"I have seen similar things many times in the past, and I was unable to stop it, but now I at least have a chance to fight for it. Please do not refuse my request to join the war, Your Excellency Archon.
I voluntarily and eagerly participate in this war of defense, which is what my God wants to see."
"but"
Miriam has already sensed Norman's determination.
However, she was still unwilling to let him go. On the one hand, it was because Norman was indeed old and she felt uneasy. On the other hand, she felt a determination from Norman's words that scared her.
She had a hunch that if she couldn't stop it, she might have another way to see the old soldier who had protected her for more than half a year.
The Archon whispered:
"But if you leave, what will happen to my safety?
You know, although the Jackals have not taken any action to send assassins at present, there are indeed Dusk spies in Transia. Once the frontline battle situation turns in our favor, it is difficult to say whether those cultists will take risks."
"You have nothing to worry about at all."
Norman replied immediately:
"The Church of Avalon will send an archdruid to replace me as your guard chief. Ms. Frillian was specifically responsible for the security work of Greeny Island during the old church period. She is more professional and suitable than me, and with her reputation
With an innate sensitivity to foul spiritual energy, the servants of Dusk will find it difficult to harm you."
"Oh, you have considered everything and arranged it so well that it is difficult for me to say no."
Miriam stood up, walked around her desk to Norman, and said:
"It is said that no one can change the choice of a determined warrior. I have witnessed this truth with my own eyes. Okay, I will approve your request to participate in the war, but please take care of yourself on the battlefield, Lord Norman.
I once had a chat with Mr. Crow, and he told me that soldiers like you who have spent a long life in the war will have some psychological diseases that are difficult to eradicate. Self-destructive desires and mania are hidden in your hearts, making it difficult for you to accept this.
Live your whole life in a peaceful environment.
But please believe me, Transia's development today is also due to you.
You are fully entitled to all of this."
After saying that, Miriam took off the vampire-style one-handed sword she was wearing along with the black and red scabbard, held it up with both hands and handed it to Norman, she said:
"This 'Scarlet Lady' is from the collection of Salokdar. Governor Murphy said that as the governor of Transia, I need such a weapon to show my identity, but this powerful psychic weapon remains with me.
It can only be a ceremonial sword, and only an outstanding warrior like you can unleash its power.
For protection, for resistance, for the power of guarding!
Please accept it!
As if I were on the battlefield with you to defend my people."
“Will live up to your expectations!”
Norman said something in a deep voice, and then accepted this gorgeous and powerful weapon.
He said goodbye to Miriam and then went to the office of the Praetorian Guard to say goodbye to his colleagues. These soldiers gave him a simple but sincere farewell here. In Old Norman, he changed back to the witch hunter's armor and rode on
When his horse left the administrative building, he looked back.
Beside the glass window, he could see Archon Miriam waving goodbye to him.
A smile flashed across Norman's face hidden under the mask. If his child had not died in the disaster on Greene Island, he would be as old as Miriam now, and she might shine as brightly as the Scarlet Archon.
Become an independent and outstanding woman.
I must set foot on the battlefield at this time, and I have an obsession deep in my heart.
Mr. Crow was right, veterans always have some psychological problems. Norman was afraid that if he stayed in this peaceful environment any longer, he would lose the courage to fight and accept the fact that he was getting old.
He protected Miriam for more than half a year and witnessed the growth of another child who lost his parents. Now it was time to go to the destined place to fulfill the promise that had been missed for ten years.
His child is waiting for him in another world, and this reunion has been delayed for too long.
