Xue Hua, who was behind the front, had no idea what kind of promise Azmodan had just made to Setia and in what form it was preparing to reinforce the war.
More than ten hours have passed silently since he cursed a certain archangel in the camp and then inexplicably gained command.
During this period of time, he has been mobilizing troops and sending people to conduct covert reconnaissance around Midway Town, trying to find out whether the hell troops in Midway Town had any changes in defense after the Angel Raid incident.
He now has in his hand an internal defense map of Midway Town that was observed by the Supervisory King Insect while taking advantage of the chaos caused by the angels. He is currently comparing this map with the information provided by the scouts who have been reporting back one after another.
The final result of the comparison is quite optimistic. From a superficial observation, the defense situation of the demon troops in Midway Town is not much different from before.
Since the city wall of the town had been destroyed by the Earthquake Demon during the previous demonic attack, even if it was partially rebuilt by the demon clones, it was just a crooked black stone wall that could not play any defensive role at all. It could only be used for defense at most.
Concealing shame...
Demons are good at destruction, and creation and reconstruction are not their specialty, especially since this is a group of demon clones with limited intelligence.
In fact, if this group of demons hadn't come from the Realm of Sin, they might not even bother to repair the wall a little, so this part wouldn't even count and wouldn't cause any hindrance.
What caused Xue Hua some trouble was the large group of winged demons that were always hovering over the town.
If there are insect swarms in these damn things, they will be a piece of food for the alien dragons, and they can tear them to pieces at will.
But now that the insect swarm was unable to move, Xue Hua felt the trouble with this air superiority advantage.
There is no decent air force on the human side. At most, the crows summoned by the druids can barely be considered a "flying unit".
However, without mutation, these summoned creatures are timid and weak in combat effectiveness. They are fine for diversion and reconnaissance during battles. It is a huge joke to expect them to deal with the Winged Demon independently.
The lack of opponents for the Winged Demons is a big trouble for professionals both in reconnaissance and combat. Even angels hate these big bats with wings.
Although the angel army's killing of these Winged Demon clones was a one-sided massacre, Xue Hua couldn't allocate all the main force and spearhead of the attack to deal with the Winged Demon?
Moreover, the Wing Demon was only one of the problems. What caused Xue Hua more headaches was the huge number of demon troops and the complex and complete coordination of the arms.
The demon barbarians and vampire monsters have energy shields released by the vampire mage. The sheep-headed demon has both melee axe-hands and long-range gunners, as well as the "Kazra Shaman" who acts as a spell attacker.
Even the cannon fodder unit, the Sinking Devil, is assisted by two special units, the Sinking Devil Warlord and the Sinking Magician, not to mention those Earthshaking Devils who are covered in bone shields and look like demons with bald heads.
In addition, Xue Hua also discovered an even more disgusting thing from the images previously observed by the Supervisory King Insect.
According to the identification of some professionals from the front lines, these things with human bodies and a terrifying centipede-like jointed limb on their left arm are called "Plaguebringers".
Their attack method is very similar to the giant hammer Death that Xue Hua once saw in Harrogath. They will insert their alien left arm into the ground, and then emerge from under or around the enemy to attack the opponent.
But the difference is that the tentacles of these plaguebringers do not attack enemies by biting or stabbing them to death.
When they emerge from the surface, they will spray deadly poisonous gas around them. Anyone who comes close to the poisonous gas or is contaminated by the sprayed poison will be poisoned.
This toxin is so powerful that even a professional's physique cannot resist it.
An eighty-sixth level barbarian told Xue Hua that he had witnessed two teammates tragically melt into green water in a matter of tens of seconds after being sprayed by the venom of the Plaguebringer -
-That scene was so terrifying that even this eight-foot strong man couldn't help but shudder when he recalled it.
From his description, Xue Hua can imagine that if the problem of the Plaguebringer cannot be effectively dealt with, then during the attack on Midway Town, this kind of demon will definitely cause large-scale destruction to the professional troops.
It was the first time he commanded a professional army, and he encountered such a difficult nut to crack. Xue Hua felt like his head had grown three times as he looked at this information.
He misses the powerful combat power of the insect swarm now. He can ignore the battle losses and the coordination of the opponent's arms. He only needs a sufficient numerical advantage, and then let the insect mothers command and run over them directly.
Even if there are any obstacles or problems, senior commanders will help solve them. If it doesn't work, the existence of the main hive mind can also allow Xue Hua to mobilize the insect swarm troops at any time just like mobilizing his own body.
But the human professional army obviously cannot command it so roughly.
"Hey... I'm really worried! How are we going to fight this battle..."
Xue Hua looked sadly at the tactical map hanging beside the tent. On the map, Midway Town was like a nail driven into the heart of the war zone in late winter, continuously bleeding the entire war zone.
Especially now in the late winter war zone, we still need to carry this nail to fight with an opponent who is obviously stronger than ourselves...
This nail firmly blocked the heart of the war zone, making it impossible for other parts of the war zone to deliver fresh blood to the limbs and bones in the war zone.
At present, there are only three or four human towns that can reinforce the front line of Winter End Castle without relying on the geographical location of Midway Town. Moreover, even the supply transport teams of these towns have been attacked by the Winged Demon troops from Midway Town.
Harassment and assault.
If this nail is not pulled out as soon as possible, the front line in the war zone in late winter is likely to experience a comprehensive collapse.
But the problem is that Xue Hua is now facing the same problem as Nelson.
Shortage of manpower.
If in the military, all difficulties can be overcome by using the skills of professionals in each profession, then in terms of high-end combat power, it is really insurmountable.
There are currently four Hell Legend level enemies in Midway Town.
The dark gold sunken magician, the dark gold demon barbarian Otto, the dark gold succubus Lilia and the legendary evil contracter necromancer Orabane.
As for the angel and human coalition, even if they fully count the two quasi-legendary angel adjutants and Dehaka, they only have five who can barely be called "high-end" combat effectiveness.
And it is conceivable that it is impossible for a quasi-legendary angel to hold back a legend. This is a gap in rank that is basically irreparable.
Therefore, the only weakness they can take advantage of now is that the dark gold demon barbarian soldier cannot fly.
Thinking of this, Xue Hua thought for a moment, then made a slight move with his right hand and released a lavender psychic message.
Not long after the message was released, two quasi-legendary angel adjutants walked in from outside the account. (To be continued)
