Chapter 1336 The Battle of Black Rock City is over, rewards will be given based on merit!
boom!
boom!
Continuous rockets flew like moths to a flame, continuously bombarding Blackstone City's defensive light curtain.
There are more and more cracks, and many places are on the verge of breaking.
The explosions in the city also continued one after another.
Although not as scary as the first few explosions, the frequency has increased too much.
Basically, more than ten explosions were heard every minute, spreading all over the residential area.
"Where's the support? Where's our support?!"
Crespo braved the sea of fire and ran out of an alley in a residential area, his face covered in blood.
Fortunately, after the temperature dropped, the rooms in the City Lord's Mansion were too cold, so everyone moved in.
Otherwise, when it explodes for the first time, they will be sent to the sky by that damn bomb.
"They arranged an ambush and news of the ambush came from the three tribes." Consul Nanny immediately replied.
"What, an ambush!" Crespo was stunned: "Who is it? Who is coming?"
"It's Tianyuan, it's human Soma."
Tianyuan?
Crespo's expression was suffocated, he swallowed hard, and the angry look he had just moments ago disappeared in an instant.
"Are you sure it was human Soma who came here with his army?"
"Not sure because we haven't found the human Soma yet. We only saw the mark representing Tianyuan." Nanni's mind was a little confused and he could only reply to Crespo's question mechanically.
About a year ago, when he was still at Blackstone Camp, his mind was so confused.
He had had similar nightmares countless times since then.
Now that the nightmare was reflected in reality, he couldn't tell whether it was reality or a dream.
"Why don't you run away quickly? Do you have to wait until the human Soma comes in personally?"
Crespo breathed a sigh of relief.
The God of Death finally chose revenge, which was what the dwarf expected.
However, many people did not expect to target Blackstone City.
After all, the last time a legion team was sent to sneak attack Tianyuan territory, Blackstone City did not participate. It was the dwarf royal family who made and executed the plan.
Now it seems that this killing god is totally unreasonable.
The human saying that debts have their owners and injustices have their own ends cannot be applied to this guy at all.
"But there are still many dwarves in the city"
Nanni opened his mouth, raised his hand and pointed tremblingly at the dwarfs running away in the sea of fire.
Although they are there or not, the fate of these dwarves may not be any different.
But with the reputation of running away from battle, what would happen even if he escaped?
"Idiot, that's human Soma, not other races, other people!"
"Do you still remember what humans said? There is no need to worry about leaving green hills without firewood. Tianyuan was supposed to take revenge on the royal family. Now it's our place on top of Black Stone City. No one will blame us, and no one will think that we have any trouble escaping.
Any questions, besides, do you think escaping now is a simple matter?"
"If you don't want to leave, you can stay. If you want to live, come with me. If you stay any longer, you will die!"
"I will not interfere with your choice. This is your freedom. Think about it, who will remember a dead dwarf?"
Crespo gave a speech so passionate that he almost believed it.
In fact, as a city lord, fleeing as soon as the battle breaks out is almost a death penalty.
Even if he is a noble, there is no possibility of forgiveness.
But the reason why he dares to make this decision now is because Crespo believes that when any noble comes to his current position and hears the words human Soma and Tianyuan, there will never be a second choice.
Escape is the best option.
Soon, almost all the management personnel, including the Archon Nanni and the captain of the law enforcement team, Quinn, all joined the fleeing queue. Only some dwarves whose families were still in Blackstone City stayed behind.
Crespo immediately expressed respect for these people's decision, which happened to help them escape and share some of the enemy's attention.
The war raged in Blackstone City, and the sound of fierce fighting echoed under the night sky, lasting from twilight to dawn.
The firelight under the night reflected the broken corpses of dwarves everywhere.
The chilling cold wind blew by, mixed with the pungent smell of blood and gunpowder smoke, ruthlessly attacking everyone's sense of smell.
As Blackstone City's once-impregnable defensive light curtain was breached, the dwarves in the city fell into an unprecedented predicament, even more desperate than when the Blackstone camp was attacked.
After all, compared to a year ago, Tianyuan is now more than ten times stronger, and it is simply a one-sided crushing.
However, although large forces have laid ambushes in all directions of Blackstone City, the dwarves have already quietly built an intricate railway network underground.
Like a mouse.
These railway passages are not only hidden, but also extend in all directions, connecting every corner of the city.
Unless all these passages are blown down from the ground, it will be difficult to pursue them underground.
The people including the city lord Crespo also escaped through these rat passages.
"It doesn't matter if we didn't catch them. With so many dwarves escaping, it's hard for us to keep the news from Blackstone City a secret."
News from the front line came back, and Sumo replied while eating breakfast.
As expected, preparing multiple plans for the dwarves is purely self-entertainment.
The huge Black Rock City didn't even organize a decent defense before surrendering.
The three surrounding tribes that rushed to help were ambushed as soon as they left the house, and all suffered heavy casualties.
"If there weren't too few people, there should have been more flowers last night." Sumo put down his chopsticks with a smile and opened the system panel to check the war points.
A very exaggerated number.
In just one day, the number of points on the panel suddenly exceeded six figures.
117500!
Even if it is ten consecutive draws with one thousand points, it can be drawn 117 times.
Don't be too exaggerated.
Moreover, the limited-time mission for the dwarves is on the verge of completion. As long as you find a way to destroy a dwarf gathering place, you can get random buildings and version progress rewards.
Of course, even if you fail to complete the task, this trip will definitely be worth it.
After breakfast, Sumo immediately took the airship and flew to the front line.
The rays of the rising sun shine on the metal cover of the airship, shining with golden light, as if to crown the journey.
Yesterday he did not go to the front line to supervise the battle in person. The reason was very simple.
One is to prevent the Tianyuan Army from being overly reliant on his power and losing the courage and wisdom to fight independently when they see an unexpected situation.
Soma hoped that the army could stand on its own feet instead of relying solely on his own strength.
Second, Su Mo himself realized that if he sat on the front line, both Feng Tianmin and Su Deben would inevitably be affected by him when making key tactical decisions, and they might even be affected by his presence.
And hesitant and over-consider his opinions.
This is not a good habit. At the very least, the stalls in the territory will become bigger and bigger in the future. He can't go to every battlefield in person.
Therefore, it is necessary to cultivate an army that can stand alone as soon as possible to lay the foundation for the territory's subsequent military development.
After arriving at the front line, the first thing Somo did was to check the battle reports and reward him based on his merits.
A total of 13,715 Tianyuan troops and mobilization troops participated in last night's battle.
Although the dwarves failed to organize a large-scale effective defense, local counterattacks still caused some trouble.
In particular, the support from the three external gathering areas led to fierce exchanges of fire with the mobilization troops.
When the war ends, the number of casualties will inevitably appear.
"Seventy-six people were killed in the battle. The bones must be collected and all must be taken back to the territory for burial in the ceremony hall."
"Three hundred and seventy people were seriously injured. Arrange a cargo ship as soon as possible to send these people back to the territory for treatment."
"If the nine hundred and forty-five people with minor injuries are conscripts, send them to the logistics. If they are Tianyuan Army, continue fighting after treatment!"
As the number of people in the territory exceeded 100,000, and when he saw dozens of casualties at every turn, Sumo was finally able to ensure that his emotions would not be greatly affected.
The deceased has passed away, and those who survived should cherish their current life.
At the same time, in recognition of everyone's heroic performance last night, Sumo decided to give additional rewards.
"Each mobilized soldier, according to the division of labor responsibilities, will receive one hundred copper coins for the front line and sixty copper coins for the logistics. Their contribution will be recorded at 50 points."
"Each Tianyuan Army soldier will receive one hundred and twenty copper coins, and his contribution will be recorded as 100 points."
This money and contribution are additional rewards in addition to the minimum guarantee of 500 copper coins.
After the news was passed on, the camp stationed outside Blackstone City suddenly burst into cheers, diluting the fatigue of a night of fighting.
Later, Sumo called the two main generals in this battle, Feng Long and Xie Hu.
The former personally led the troops to ascend last night and captured the wall of Blackstone City that had been resisting for a long time, destroying all the dwarves' resistance in one fell swoop.
The latter wreaked havoc in the city, not only detonating all the energy stone bombs, but also burning down the storage area, cutting off all hope of the dwarves.
It can be said that the victory of this battle was due to the two men.
"Lord!" Feng Long's eyes were red, but he was in good spirits.
Xiehu looks a little tired because he is getting older and has stayed up all night fighting.
However, both of them could not hide the joy on their faces, with smiles on their lips.
"You two are the great contributors to this battle. I really saw the right person!" Sumo raised his head and looked at the two of them.
"One is charging outside, and the other is destroying inside. I'm afraid the dwarves will hate you to death."
"Hey, I was so overwhelmed with killing last night. When I think of the brothers who died in the dwarf sneak attack before, I want to kill them all!" After charging around, the murderous aura in Feng Long's body had dissipated a lot, but now that he is talking about it,
The words were still filled with murderous intent.
"I didn't do anything. These dwarves are actually not as powerful as the wanderers." It wasn't really that difficult, and Hunting Tiger wasn't willing to take credit for it.
The main reason why the bomb can be placed so easily is the storage module.
As for the subsequent destruction in the city, it was basically Tuoba Chi and Ping Chen who did it.
He just found the storage area and set a fire.
Compared with the previous battles with the gopher guys in the surrounding cities of Qinggang City, the difficulty is simply skyrocketing.
"You are all very humble, but if I don't reward you, what will the people below think?" Sumo stood up and walked around on the ground twice.
"Feng Long, after this battle is over, I will promote you to the head of the Tianyuan Army. I will allow you to expand your army to four thousand people, and will also allow you to form an armored battalion to focus on assault warfare."
"Thank you, Lord!" Hearing this, Feng Long's eyes narrowed with a smile, and his head was buzzing.
He currently only has 2,000 men at most, and this time he has doubled that number.
And it can also control an armored battalion, which is almost reaching the point of independent combat.
Under the modern military system, it is not an exaggeration to say that this kind of speed of improvement is like riding a rocket.
"What Yehu promised you before, I can pay you some of it now."
Arranging for Feng Long to leave first, Sumo pretended to touch Yehu's arm, then took out a liquid in a black and green glass bottle and handed it over.
"Drink it and then go lie down on the ground over there."
"This" Yehu hesitated for a moment, shook the glass bottle, and looked a little frightened at the turbid liquid.
At this moment, he suddenly remembered that he had also used this method to give the previous manager a permanent sleep.
Now the situation was reversed, and the person who should drink it became himself.
"What? Are you scared?" Sumo said with a smile.
"What am I afraid of? I'm not even afraid of death, but am I afraid of this? I'm just wondering what this thing tastes like." Yehu suddenly sneered, picked up the cork of the bottle with his thick fingers, and drank it all.
Looking at the expression of death, I don't know if I thought he was drinking poison.
When there was no more liquid in the bottle, he pursed his lips and re-corked the glass bottle.
Not to mention, it tastes really good.
It's a bit like spinach squeezed into juice, with some pepper flavor mixed in.
"Now go and lie down there."
Sumo pointed to the empty side of the tent and opened the system panel while Yehu turned around.
According to the ranking of potential, Yehu is still overwhelmingly in the first position.
Potential: 82 (Extreme fighting talent, insight and strategic thinking far beyond ordinary people, and excellent psychological quality)
Number of times that can be strengthened: 8 (each 10 points of potential provides 1 strengthening opportunity)
Feature status:
Low blood variant (gray), brute strength (white), brute wisdom (white), bloodline limit breaking (blue), son of war (gold):
】
Compared to the previous inspection, the attributes of the hunting tiger have actually changed.
Affected by the characteristics of the Son of War, some attributes were retained after last night's battle, and the bone strength increased from 14 points to 15 points.
This kind of speed of improvement is simply abnormal.
However, correspondingly, his shortened life span has also soared from the previous 11 days in July 2019 to 2 days in January 2020.
One battle cost him less than half a year of his life, and his health was on the verge of dropping to 2 points.
"Fortunately, the potential value has not changed and can be strengthened eight times."
With a huge sum of money in hand, Sumo's mentality became much calmer.
Even if the upgrade fails to be shipped directly, you can later obtain the characteristic status through lottery and install it on the hunting tiger, thereby making up for the shortcomings of the golden characteristic status.
Yesterday, as expected, I was stuck on the highway again. Please forgive me, readers!
