There were water stains on the table. It seemed that General Andre was not good at drawing. Fortunately, although the drawing was crude, the meaning seemed to be quite clear.
I saw a large arc on the table. General Andre pointed at the arc and said: "Look, you two, this is the border line at the southern end of the Frozen Forest. Speaking of which, although our Storm Legion has 200,000 soldiers,
But this damn forest is too big! The southern border is as long as a province! Although we have 200,000 troops, it is actually too long to be stationed on such a long line.
It is very difficult. Therefore, for many years, we have adopted the strategy of focusing on garrisoning and sending more patrols and rangers. Only then can we barely complete the mission."
He casually drew a few small circles under the arc that symbolized the southern border of the frozen forest: "Our troops are stationed in several places based on divisions, near the southern end of the forest.
At the same time, the cavalry squad was used as a unit to patrol back and forth according to the set routes every day and night. Although the soldiers worked hard, fortunately, there were no major troubles in these years. Another point is that with other main battles
The legion is different. Our Storm Legion does not have a main camp! Because several divisions are all sent out to be stationed. Otherwise, such a long line would not be visible at all! Even General Rostock's direct guard division
The regiment is only 20,000 strong and is stationed in a place slightly south. This is no longer a secret, so there is no harm in telling you."
"The big earthquake six days ago was really scary. I came south this time and asked people along the way. It seems that the situation here is okay, but in the frozen forest in the north, it is different! What the hell
The earthquake broke all the trees, collapsed the mountains, and cracked the roads! Unfortunately, our two cavalry battalions were stationed in a valley. As a result, the snow-capped mountains collapsed during the earthquake. Thousands of brothers could only run away.
There were 300 people. Most of the other places were buried alive underneath!! I later went to the scene and saw that the damn earthquake first collapsed the exits on both sides of the valley, making it impossible for anyone to escape.
Then the mountain collapsed..."
At this point, Andre's eyes turned red and his tone couldn't help but choke.
But he was a soldier after all, so he took a deep breath and continued to draw a few arrows pointing south on the arc line.
"In the earthquake just six days ago, no one in the army had ever experienced such a thing. For a moment, people were panicked, even the generals. Although everyone was slightly calmer, they still felt uneasy after all.
.Sure enough, in the afternoon, disaster happened!
Looking at it now, I don’t know where we started from. In short, based on the news in the newspaper, we were in these places... Look, one, two, three, four... six! Six directions, almost
At the same time, large numbers of monsters ran out of the frozen forest and surged southward!
Although I have been in the north for so many years, I have never seen so many magical beasts in my life!!
Although we have encountered some monsters running out of the forest in the past, after all, as long as our patrol cavalry surrounds them, shouts a few times, and scares them, we can scare these beasts back. After all, those who can be in the south are all
Low-level monsters, really powerful things, all live in the depths of the forest and rarely come out.
Most of these monsters have some intelligence, even low-level ones. If a monster encounters our patrol, it often knows that it is outmatched, so it retreats and goes back. Unless it encounters some powerful guys, we
Only the soldiers will fight.
But the difference this time is... so large numbers of monsters came out, not one or two, nor tens and hundreds, but thousands and thousands!!
At that time, I was not in the front, but in the landlord general's camp in the south, but a good brother of mine was a deputy division commander. He later told me that his camp was the first to bear the brunt of the attack, and there was a torrent of monsters that hit him head-on.
Went in the direction of his main camp! The soldiers standing on the guard tower at that time were completely stunned. The scene was almost like a nightmare!
The dense torrent of monsters rushed out at once, and the soldiers were stunned for a while before they reacted. But when they resisted, the scene was really heartbreaking!
Your Excellency, Mr. Rodriguez, there are absolutely no cowards in our Storm Legion! However, even if we train hard, most of the soldiers are still just ordinary people! They don't know magic, they can only use knives, bows and arrows, and
Spear!
On weekdays, if we encounter one or two monsters, our soldiers can barely drive them away as long as they are brave and desperate, but if we encounter a large number of them...
The types of monsters are all kinds of weird, and there are all kinds of things. But fortunately, these monsters seemed to be frightened in the earthquake and ran out. Our camps are all military fortresses. Later, we ordered the camp gates to be closed, and we used the fortresses to use them.
The city walls were built for defense, and soldiers stood on them to shoot arrows and smash stones...
But those guys seemed to be going crazy, and many of them were banging against the wall as if they were desperate!
The soldiers were already fighting with their lives! But there were just too many of these things! Later, some brothers who had the guts even decided to fight to the death, organized cavalry to countercharge against those monsters, and set fire along the way in an attempt to scare them away.
Run away from them... We have already used this trick of setting fire, and it works very well. But this time, it didn't work.
In that afternoon alone, we lost tens of thousands of troops! The two camps in the west were breached, and those monsters passed through our defenses and headed south!
Afterwards, General Rostock was furious. He immediately mobilized the cavalry from the rear to pursue him. At the same time, he issued a death order to let the remaining battalion defend. Unless the last person was killed in the battle, they were not allowed to take a step back!
There were so many military orders. That night, when I think about it now, I don’t know how I got here! That night, I accompanied General Rostock in the general’s camp, but every once in a while, a messenger came to report the situation, saying that this place was occupied.
A breakthrough has been made, how many people have died there, the situation here is critical, reinforcements are requested, and what new situation about World of Warcraft has been discovered there...
By the next morning, even the reserves in the general's camp were sent out, and I took my personal guards and went directly into battle. Before leaving, General Rostock said to me: 'If you can't
,Then I will come!'
I came to the front line, my brother's division camp, and I'm afraid I will never forget that scene!
The fortress wall in front of the camp was almost half broken, and the remaining half was in danger. Later, my brother told me that at night, several large monsters appeared, and those giant bears were extremely powerful, and
It was difficult to shoot them with bows and arrows. Those beasts took turns slamming into each other, almost collapsing the wall of the fortress. Later, the division commander gave the order to use men to fill it at all costs! I don’t know how many brothers were holding rocks and wood to push against the wall.
, the other side collapsed a little, so we rushed people to fill it up, and then we defended it all night!
Under the wall outside, there were all kinds of corpses everywhere. The division originally numbered 20,000 people, but by the afternoon of the next day, there were only less than 8,000 left!!
No matter it is day or night, there are monsters howling outside! The sound is so tragic that even thinking about it now makes people have nightmares!
But at that time, although we suffered heavy losses, fortunately, most of the monsters that appeared were low-level, and we were able to deal with them despite our desperate efforts.
But on the morning of the third day, something went wrong!
In the torrent of monsters outside, some high-level guys appeared. I met the wolf king of an ice and snow demon wolf!
Later, I finally found out that the legend was true! Those high-level monsters are intelligent! Moreover, they can actually summon those low-level monsters for them to drive!
With the emergence of high-level monsters, those low-level guys who were originally just a mess suddenly seemed to be much more cunning. They even learned to take turns to attack our camp!
At the end, there were still some monsters living underground and began to dig caves out of the ground!
The third day was the most difficult day. Those monsters became more cunning and smarter. They no longer used our bows and arrows to charge upwards like before, but became cunning and knew how to dodge! And the magic of those monsters
The attacks are also more powerful!
Our soldiers, in the absence of magicians, fought tooth and nail with only swords and arrows. In the end, less than 20% of my division survived!
With the emergence of high-level monsters, these originally chaotic torrent of monsters have turned into legions of monsters!"
At this point, Andre, the brave general, suddenly gave a wry smile: "I was able to survive. Now that I think about it, it is really a blessing! And at that time, there were many soldiers who couldn't even hold a knife.
It’s not that they are not brave, it’s just that no one has ever seen such a scene!”
Du Wei couldn't help but ask: "So...now, where are those monsters? Since you can retreat, are they retreating?"
