The first thousand two hundred and eighty-four chapters star
“It’s not worthy of its name!”
Some people complained, not talking about famous generals, but talking about military students like them who have no leadership experience. They also know that as generals, caution is the first priority.
After Downton made his choice, the forest scene immediately filled the venue. Although it was a projection, it could not be seen at all. He could even smell the fresh air and the gentle breeze blowing from the forest.
“So exquisite!”
Downton's eyes lit up. Except for the dense mountain forests, nothing could be seen anymore. In front of him was a command headquarters, which was fully prepared.
There was a piece of white paper hanging on the wall with the word map written on it. Downton speculated that the terrain would only be displayed on it after scouts were sent out to detect the actual terrain.
"Please note that the ratio of scene to reality is one to one hundred!"
"The battle time is not limited, and it ends with defeating the opponent's army or killing the commander."
"After the war begins, the campaign must not be suspended for any reason!"
The arbiter describes the rules of chess one by one, and only once. If you don't understand it, you don't understand it completely. If you make a mistake, you will lose because of the foul.
"Tsk tsk, that calm expression on his face looks pretty good!"
Many officers were looking forward to seeing Downton make a fool of himself, but they were destined to be disappointed. He did not look nervous and panicked like most challengers when he first heard a large number of rules, and hurriedly found a notebook to take shorthand.
Standing there, his eyes swept over everything in the room.
"The difficulty of the campaign ranges from simple to complex. You have one hundred basic points, which can be used to purchase the type and quantity of troops you are good at."
"Every time you win a game, you will get corresponding points,"
Some crystal chess pieces appear in front of Downton. If you touch them with your fingers, a corresponding introduction will appear.
"You have five minutes to prepare, then the battle begins!"
It is said to be five minutes. In fact, the time is pitiful, because there are more than a dozen types of soldiers. It takes a lot of time just to read it once, not to mention considering strategies and arranging troops.
The officers were also whispering, guessing the tactics Downton was going to use, but when the venue suddenly went dark, they were completely stunned.
"No way, he actually chose to start at night?"
"Isn't this simply increasing the difficulty?" Wucuo Novel Network does not skip words.
"Maybe there are tactics?"
The officers didn't know why. As we all know, night battles are the most troublesome, and the battle simulations in the war chess hall are very close to reality. Fighting at night will reduce the combat effectiveness of the arms. However, only the commander can experience these situations and will not write about them.
in the introduction.
"Hmph, you're so arrogant, it's not that easy to break into the Flag Hall!"
Some officers sneered, thinking that Downton might fail at the first level.
"Quiet, everyone!"
The five-star commander roared, causing the room to fall silent.
"Time's up, the battle begins!"
As the Arbiter finished speaking, a dial appeared in the command center. Whether it was marching or building a camp, it would take a certain amount of time, and it represented the proportion of the shortening of real time.
"Is an hour a day? It seems that the arbiter doesn't want us to spend too much time!"
Downton muttered, Luozi.
All the scouts were dispatched to explore the nearby terrain as quickly as possible. After Downton selected the location of the camp, he sent out engineers to start construction. In order to save time, he also sent two-thirds of the soldiers to build, and at the same time, he sent out
Scouts search for enemy shadows.
With the scouts' detection, the map of the headquarters also lit up. Some people noticed that Downton's detection was a three-line type, advancing directly and quickly instead of steadily, so it appeared on the map in darkness and abruptness.
Three bands of light appeared.
"Haha, morale has dropped, right? There are many words on Wucuo Novel Network"
Some people are snickering. One of the unspecified rules is that if soldiers are asked to do work that is not in line with their responsibilities, morale will drop. Now that Downton's soldiers meet each other, they were originally one-on-one in combat effectiveness.
Directly drop by one-third. If you work as an engineer for several days in a row, the soldiers may run away.
Many people expected that the enemy would be unable to defeat them quickly and destroy Downton's camp quickly. However, it was not until the evening on the first day that enemy rangers appeared outside the camp. At this time, Downton tried his best to build the camp.
It's already as solid as gold.
After the enemy's scout discovered this situation, he gave up the opportunity to attack immediately.
"Damn it, why didn't I expect that? The enemy can't see whether the morale of the soldiers is low. What they see is the strong camp. As long as they don't attack, Downton's soldiers can restore their morale after a night's rest."
Some officers shouted out, and they discovered that this was a quick method in the camp. Some military cadets quickly recorded this discovery in a small notebook for future use.
The next day, more enemy troops appeared outside the camp, and Downton not only sent out scouts, but also reinforced the camp. This turtle tactic greatly disappointed the officers.
"Is this the number one general in the north? It turns out he's a master of shrinking!"
Many officers began to complain that in the army, everyone preferred aggressive offensive tactics and defensive tactics, which were only done by the weak.
On the evening of the next day, the enemy began a tentative attack, but was repulsed with considerable losses, because more than 70% of Downton's troops were defensive.
"Towers, bunkers, ballistas, I can see that Downton is going to kill the opponent!"
There was a thousand men who sneered. There was no time limit for the battle. With this increasingly solid camp, Downton was already in an invincible position.
Sure enough, on the third day, Downton was still cowering, but he began to send out his only cavalry to harass the opponent's supply line, while not forgetting to reinforce the camp.
"Male, if I were the commander of the other party, I would be pissed to death by Downton."
More and more voices are beginning to criticize Downton. What they want to see is a gorgeous offensive performance, not this kind of blunt knife cutting flesh.
The strength of the two sides is equal. The cavalry's combat effectiveness is greater than that of the auxiliary troops, so they have the upper hand in harassment. Downton does not seek to kill the enemy, but takes the destruction of supplies as his primary responsibility. He will burn if he can, and withdraw if he cannot, and try to ensure the cavalry.
Don't lose in battle.
The enemy sent cavalry to escort the supplies, which naturally reduced the intensity of the siege, and with such a long supply line, the defense could not cover all aspects, so the stalemate continued, and the morale of the expeditionary force was declining every day.
On the evening of the third day, the enemy commander who couldn't stand it launched a general attack, but he couldn't capture the camp at all. There was no other way. His arms were the best proportion for conventional combat. If he wanted to take down Downton, which was mostly a defensive arm, he had to repair it.
An impregnable camp requires at least a large number of siege troops.
After a big battle, the enemy suffered greater losses, and Downton took the opportunity to send out cavalry for a sneak attack.
"Male, so shameless!"
Seeing the enemy troops being annihilated in the early morning of the fourth day, the officers cursed loudly.
"This tactic has its merits. We can do it too!"
The performance fell so far short of expectations that the officers denounced Downton.
"Shut up, do you really understand Downton's command?" Wucuo Novel Network does not skip words.
The commander couldn't bear it anymore and cursed loudly.
"It's so simple, who can't understand it?"
Thousands of people murmured in dissatisfaction.
In the second battle, Downton still chose the woodland, and the arms were mainly defensive. Of course, the increase in points also gave him more choices. But he didn't buy it!
"Again?"
Seeing Downton win another victory with the turtle tactics, the officers went crazy.
In the third game, Downton was still cowering, but this time there were some new changes. The enemy also began to cower, so the officers saw a protracted confrontation. For seven days, there was no fighting, only small-scale killings by scouts.
On the tenth day, even the arbiter couldn't stand it anymore and declared a draw. If you didn't lose, you could continue the fight, and the points weren't many, so it was better than nothing.
In the fourth game, Downton is no longer defensive, but another ultra-extreme existence, a water-based offensive unit.
In less than half a day, Downton's regiment, which was marching at full speed, captured the enemy troops who were reinforcing their camp and killed the commander on his horse.
"Haha, I really guessed it."
When Downton laughed, it also made the onlookers itch with hatred. In this round, he completely used the inertia of the previous battle to play tricks on his opponents.
"You won't be so lucky next time."
Just when everyone was expecting Downton to use extreme tactics to make his scalp bleed in the fifth game, he actually started to play steadily.
This battle was more difficult, but Downton still won.
“This is such good luck!”
Thousands of people complain and are not angry.
"Humph, a bunch of idiots, luck? Don't you still understand the reason for Downton's victory?" Wucuo Novel Network did not skip words.
The five-star commander couldn't stand it anymore.
"I can also use turtle tactics!"
The commander-in-chief's nephew complained, but he grabbed a chair and hit it on the head, causing blood to flow freely.
"Idiot, Downton has been planning every step until now. Don't forget, you have already challenged several battles, but this is the first time for Downton. I don't know if any of you will succeed in the first time.
Win five games in a row?”
The roar of the five-star commander made the officers suddenly remember that in the army, winning three games in a row is something to be proud of, but Downton won five games and it was still so easy.
"Did Downton choose a scene instead of an opponent? Think about the geographical environment of Frankfurt, which is a large area of woodland. His first battle was fought in the red pine forest."
The commander-in-chief cursed, "The woodland is the home ground that Downton is most familiar with, and there are also nights. It is precisely because he knows that attacking at night is not easy, so he specially chose it, because he was determined to defend to the end, so as to delay the enemy."
marching speed to gain time."
The officers stopped talking and began to think carefully.
"Hmph, did you know that Downton adopts defensive tactics? It's not that he likes it, but that he should do it. Don't forget, the four most classic battles Downton has fought so far have all been with less and more. You would actually think that he
Not good at attacking?"
The commander continued to roar like a hairdryer.
"I understand, Downton is not familiar with everything about the battle, so he uses defensive tactics to delay time and learn as much as possible about each unit, the rules, and the performance of the opponent's unit."
A general came to his senses.
"It's not that stupid, but it's not complete. Downton still wants to know the commander's character. This is why he adopted extreme tactics in the fourth game."
The commander-in-chief made it clear.
"Downton is collecting intelligence in every game. Do you think he won the fifth game because of luck? In fact, it was the intelligence that played a role. If he is not familiar with the attributes of those arms, how can he respond specifically?"
"Announce to the whole audience that the challengers are very knowledgeable in tactics, and the Flag Hall will send famous generals to fight!"
The arbiter suddenly announced, causing the Heroic Soul audience to burst into loud cheers.
"Isn't it right? Many words on Wucuo Novel Network actually typed out famous generals?"
The officers looked at each other. Even those commanding geniuses could only defeat famous generals by chance.
This means that the challenger has been recognized by the War Flag Hall, and those famous generals are all famous generals or commanders in history.
"I don't know who it could be?"
No one doubts Downton's commanding ability anymore. The appearance of famous generals is enough to explain everything.
In the sixth game, since the Flag Hall sent famous generals, there was no need to toss a coin to determine priority. Downton could choose the terrain.
"It's actually a plain. Is he going to use cavalry?"
The officers watched Downton's every move and discovered that he had spent all the points he had accumulated in previous rounds, but the purchase was not a ranger, but a mechanical golem.
"Is this a routine?"
Many people are confused. The combat effectiveness of the golem is very high, but the points required for one can be exchanged for twenty cavalry. This powerful unit is usually exchanged for one or two to defend the headquarters and guard against the enemy's decapitation tactics.
"Keep watching quietly!"
The commanders were all excited, waiting for the surprise brought by Downton.
The battle began. Downton changed his previous retreating tactical style, and the entire headquarters was dispatched along with the mechanical golem corps.
More than 80% of the famous general's troops are a mixture of heavy cavalry and light cavalry, so his offensive is also very open. After all, the Great Plains is the most suitable place for cavalry to gallop.
"It looks like it's going to be a trade-off!"
As soon as the officers finished speaking, they were slapped in the face by Downton. His golem army was like a cunning tuna, swimming and weaving on the plains, all the while avoiding frontal battle.
The famous general's cavalry regiment was exhausted, resulting in a continuous decline in morale, and when maneuvering quickly, it was a disaster for logistical supplies.
Of course, Downton's logistics are also under great pressure, but after all, they are constructed creatures, so their morale is intact.
The famous general couldn't stand this stalemate, so he dispersed his cavalry and prepared to surround Downton.
"finally come!"
Downton showed off his bloody fangs. Naturally, the golem army had no chance of winning against the huge cavalry regiment, but even if the forces were equal, they still had an overwhelming advantage.
Watching the golem rampaging and strangling the cavalry regiments they encountered, the officers looked at each other in disbelief. They suddenly discovered that Downton's previous detour was entirely a tactic designed to force the famous general to divide his troops.
With one insignificant victory after another, Downton reduced the strength of the famous generals, and finally equaled, and then surpassed.
There was no decisive battle because the famous general raised the white flag.
"Can the mechanical golem still be used like this?"
The audience was completely silent. People were either shocked or thinking. Downton's tactics were not unusual, but the types of troops he chose were never recorded in textbooks. (To be continued...)
