Chapter 365, Progress in War
The teaching of love, or a simple beating, Black Hair made a promise to these unruly Storm Rats, whoever can defeat him can become a new one Boss.
Then, a vigorous chaos began.
These storm rats are worthy of their professionalism. They fight during the night break and can participate in the march normally even with bruises and swollen faces during the day.
After one round, or two rounds, or more, this short and skinny ratman dragging a sword full of gaps almost beat each of the five thousand storm rats, and even Some were beaten more than once.
These rebellious guys were finally convinced.
I am willing to curb my pride in front of Heimao.
Qi and the others are almost there, let’s climb another mountain.
That is a fortress, a solid fortress built on a towering mountain. This fortress is a key link for the Youyan people to maintain the water transportation channel in Lianyan Province.
On the extremely steep mountaintop fortress is stationed a complete force of magic weapons, with a total number of about 10,000, and an additional 30,000 militia troops.
Not far from the hilltop fortress, the area where the river flows through is a smooth and gentle river channel.
This is one of the most suitable areas for ratmen to cross the river, but it happens to be guarded by a smelly and hard fortress.
If you ignore them and forcibly cross the river, then when the large army reaches half way, they will be attacked by the defenders of this fortress. If you become angry and besiege this fortress, then this fortress will be attacked. The fortress built based on the terrain is really smelly and hard.
Furthermore, the Dark Eye Human Race also has a mobile force cruising on this river. Often, before you capture this fortress, you will face an attack from the Dark Eye Human Race army arriving to support it.
Such a dilemma has allowed this fortress to exist to this day, becoming a real obstacle to the rat people.
It was a tough nut to crack, and now it was Qi's turn to face it.
Across the mountain.
Both the river and the fortress appeared in front of the flag, and the gorgeous smoke was released from the fortress standing on the steep mountain as a warning.
It is difficult to operate covertly in this flat place.
And in the past three years, some things that are more difficult for the rat people have also been put into use, those patterned pillars that can strengthen the land rocks.
When Mountain Dew City was recaptured by the Dark Eye tribe, these stone pillars and the unburned legacy of the Golden Wheatfield Academy were excavated by mages and brought back to the empire.
Today, some results have been achieved, and a large part of these results have been put into the battlefield.
Self-repairing earth shells, soil-solidifying stone pillars, modular construction strategies, plant-induced demonization technology, and the rock demons that have recently been put into plain battlefields to face off against the rat people's increasingly exaggerated steam tanks. picture.
In this war, the technology of both sides ushered in an explosion.
The Skaven's hybrid magic energy steam engine, magic energy resistance armor, gear linkage system, fifth generation crazy lightning cannon, and the battlefield construction theory, eugenics and eugenics theory, and mushroom selection theory of the Big Claw Priests .
These are all real black technologies.
For example, the self-repairing earth shell of the Youyan tribe is a magic technology for setting up semi-permanent or fully permanent positions.
With a set of huge arrays laid out almost all over the position, this completed position has a certain ability to self-repair, whether it is the big crater caused by the shell or the various ravines on it. , can be slowly smoothed out and returned to a constant state set when setting up the position.
In order to defend against the unpredictable underground raids of the rat people.
Even the earth-solidifying stone pillars cannot completely stop the crazy digging of the big-claw priests. From time to time, there is no guarantee that underground tunnels will still be opened under unexpected circumstances.
The self-repairing earth shell cannot stop the excavation of the Great Claw Priest, but it can smooth out the excavated underground tunnels and various abandoned underground tunnels after the battle.
Otherwise, sooner or later, the underground of the battlefield will be dug like a hornet's nest by the rat people.
The Rat Man's magic resistance armor is something similar. The Great Claw Priests discovered a physical structure that can resist magic reactions. No special materials or rituals are needed. They just use this The structure is reduced and the outer armor of the steam tank is covered, then this steam tank has the ability to resist magic attacks.
It's amazing. The Big Claw Priests didn't understand what this principle was, but it didn't stop them from starting to use this magic resistance structure on a large scale and use an almost exhaustive method to deal with it. This mysterious structure is optimized.
War is indeed a good way to promote progress.
On the bank of the broad and rushing river, Qi's attack on the fortress began.
The young rat warriors began to climb towards the fortress.
In the beginning, everything seemed so calm, as if the enemies in the fortress were not aware of it at all, which made people feel lucky.
Maybe everything is not that difficult, just climb up, climb up and kill all the heretics in that fortress, that's it, that's it.
Climbing this steep mountain is not difficult, at least for the rat people.
Everything went so smoothly.
Just, really? Qi's brows were deeply knitted. He stood on the ground, raised his head, and stared at the fortress with absolute terrain advantages.
Of course everything cannot be so calm.
As an absolute siege expert, Qi understands one thing clearly.
The best time to defend the city is when the enemy is halfway up the climb. This can ensure that every point spent on defending the city is maximized, but this is not so easy to do.
After all, it is not that easy to watch the enemy approaching you, and fear will creep up in your heart.
This war will never be that easy.
The attack began when the Skaven were halfway up the steep mountain.
A variety of attacks, rolling boulders, kerosene, arrows, the magic energy beams splashing down, and the elemental chaos cannon.
In an instant, screams and wails echoed in Qi's ears, and in front of his eyes, countless rat men fell down.
There is no doubt that this will be a real tough battle.
Watching all this, Qi slightly grinded his teeth.
………….
What is gratifying is that although the attack on this fortress is a test that Qi has to face, it is not just a test for Qi.
The temple guards really want to break through this long-entangled front.
Almost at the same time that Qi launched his attack, the war priests also began to urge the rat warriors in their hands to run wildly.
The battlefield maintained by the war priests is undoubtedly more tragic, involving more resources and soldiers, and attracting more attention.
It also allowed Qi to escape the tragic ending of being attacked from the rear by the Youyan human army wandering on the river.
The effective forces maintained by the Nether Eye Human Race rushed to the more important main battlefield.
This is something to be happy about.
Of course, there is a problem that needs to be solved temporarily before being happy.
Even if the Youyan people don’t have more strength to rush here along the river, can he really attack this fortress?
This is a question worth thinking about.
The flag may have to understand the real reason why this fortress is obviously stuck on this battlefield like a spike, but the war priests have been unable to pull it out.
The falling rat people smashed themselves into pieces. Death is not the worst outcome, and dying decisively has never been the worst outcome.
The worst result is to survive on the last breath, keep wailing and wailing, but still alive, with broken legs and hands. Living is simpler, and the entire lower body has lost consciousness. He could only rely on his hands to forcefully drag his body and climb at the foot of the mountain.
There are quite a few of these guys, and they are all reduced to what they are now because of the flag, but the flag cannot calm them down, and the flag will not compensate them. They are all like this, they are all like this. .
In order to get what you want, in order to pick the apple hanging high above your head, you have to put something under your feet. It's all like this.
Every rat warlord stepped on the corpses of countless rat men to be able to stand above everyone else.
The army in hand is constantly decreasing, and losses are occurring every moment, but there is no more way. If you want to capture this fortress on a towering mountain, there is no more way.
He shouted loudly with a ferocious face, ignoring the wails and screams, and continued to drive the rat warriors in his hands to climb up.
Witness the death of countless ratmen. Only then will you understand. In this twisted and deformed country, why only those indifferent and crazy guys can log in. Get high.
If you want to climb up, you have no choice.
If you still regard the rat people who are chirping and noisy in front of you as companions, as rat people like you, then you will always be able to raise your head and look up from that low place. You can never become a real big shot.
Think of them as firewood, as tools, as something cheaper, as a bunch of scumbags through and through.
Use it as a ladder to climb up.
The flag roared ferociously, and the army in his hands, the young rat warriors, even though they were more educated, became frightened when facing this terrifying battlefield.
This is a very normal emotion. After all, everyone is afraid of death, and no one wants to do something that seems absolutely impossible to succeed.
It’s like climbing this high mountain, it’s like breaking the castle on that high mountain.
