Indeed, in the game it is similar to reality. A defeat on the frontal battlefield will definitely lead to a large-scale invasion by the enemy, causing the defeated side to lose more territory and never even have a chance to stand up again.
"Now our defeat is determined. If we fight to the end, our player level will be reduced a lot, our equipment will explode and be replaced by the enemy. In the end, we will still be defeated, and we will be defeated very thoroughly, which will make us in the
In the following days, we will be completely passive, and it will be difficult to even assemble the army to fight again, because by that time, our legions will be scattered and disabled by the opponent, and our fortresses will fall into the hands of the opponent, and the opponent will always have a large number of regular troops.
The army will come and disrupt our future deployment at any time, and we will fall into endless passivity."
Gu Weiqing analyzed helplessly on the United Front channel: "If we retreat now, at least our main army has not suffered huge losses. We still have enough strength to compete with the opponent. Even if we lose twenty fortresses, we still have ten
This fortress can be used as the rear. We can still use the teleportation array to gather the Qingfeng players who have gone online into our fortress. We still have the opportunity to counterattack at any time and achieve final victory! In a fundamental sense, this time is just a strategic retreat.
, I hope everyone can understand and actively cooperate.”
"I support retreat!" Lin Yu'er, who knew more about the game, was the first to speak out in support.
"I also agree." Xiao Yao then expressed her position.
"Agree!" Ye Lingyue, Xiang'er, and Qiu Nantian then agreed.
After a brief pause, the other Qingfeng bosses all agreed, because there is no other better option at the moment. If they resist until the end, they will be defeated. When the time comes, after Qingfeng's large and small legions have completely collapsed, the enemy will be defeated in one fell swoop.
After taking down all of Qing Feng's fortresses and destroying the stations of Qing Feng's gangs, it would be too difficult for Qing Feng to gather a large number of players.
Following the instructions of Guo Weiqing, Lin Yu'er led more than 500,000 Qingfeng elite troops and launched his troops to attack the enemy's nearly one million elite troops that had already been assembled. He looked like he was going to turn the tide in a decisive battle.
Naturally, the opponent actively cooperated with this. No matter how powerful the Qingfeng elite were, they would not be able to defeat twice as many enemies on the frontal battlefield. The Qingfeng Legion's initiative to attack was undoubtedly to use an egg against a stone.
However, when the main elite legions of both sides were about to come into contact, Lin Yu'er divided the Qingfeng legion into three groups, each with about 170,000 to 80,000 troops, and attacked the cemeteries of the three fortresses respectively.
The opponent's main army did not understand the situation, so they also divided into three groups, each with about 350,000, to pursue Qing Feng's three main elite groups respectively.
But not long after, the three Qingfeng legions were broken down into nine legions with a number of approximately 60,000.
The opponent was divided into nine small legions with numbers ranging from 11 to 20,000. They still stared at Qingfeng's elite legions respectively. But what the other party never expected was that the Qingfeng legion looked like it was about to fight decisively.
But it was continuously decomposed and refined, and not long after, it seemed to have disappeared from the world. In less than an hour, more than 500,000 Qingfeng elites were integrated into Qingfeng's millions of players.
The millions of players that Qingfeng invested in the battle quickly retreated from the battlefield, and then got out of the fighting state and used the city return scrolls to return to the city one after another.
Although the opponent tried their best to hinder the retreat of Qingfeng players, they could only stop a small part. If this small part was intercepted, they would only die once. They could still return to the city after reaching the cemetery.
At five o'clock in the morning on the second day of the Lunar New Year, Qingfeng retreated on the frontal battlefield, or it could be said to be defeated. Just as Qingfeng's bosses expected, the retreat of Qingfeng's army gave the enemy a great opportunity. They
The army marched straight into the hinterland of Qingfeng. Before the end of the game day, they captured more than a dozen fortresses that originally belonged to Qingfeng. In addition to the several fortresses they had already acquired before, in two game days, they captured more than a dozen fortresses from Qingfeng.
The total number of fortresses captured reached an astonishing twenty-one.
The total amount of gold coins Qing Feng spent to build these twenty-one fortresses is definitely over 100 million. Although he had made some money back before, the loss was still very heavy, at least tens of millions of gold coins.
It was a waste of money, which undoubtedly caused Qingfeng's shareholders to suffer huge losses. But the economic failure was only secondary. The key was that the strategic significance was too important. Before, Qingfeng Group was playing at home, but now it is waiting for something to change.
It became an away game.
Twenty-one fortresses were lost in two game days, and the foundation of the Qingfeng Empire has been shaken. Qingfeng, the star hanging in the sky like a dazzling gem, also looks dim and shaky.
At this time, Longhua players' confidence in Qingfeng had reached its lowest point, and they realized that the players in the major regions were indeed very likely to defeat Qingfeng. Then the players in the major regions might not be like Qingfeng in the future.
We will not interfere with the game life of players in Longhua Region, and we will not crack down on other gangs in Longhua Region.
Qingfeng's defeat this time actually had the significance of awakening the players in the Longhua region to a sense of national crisis. Of course, this was something Gu Weiqing could not have expected before.
Qingfeng still has nine fortresses in hand, which can effectively and quickly gather Qingfeng's players together.
Although Qingfeng suffered huge losses, several major shareholders of Qingfeng still supported Qingfeng unconditionally, because the development and growth of an empire cannot be smooth sailing at all. Even though Qingfeng looked like an invincible battleship before,
It is inevitable to encounter twists and turns, and everyone has expected them before.
As before, the enemy destroyed all the commercial buildings in the occupied fortresses, built all twenty-one fortresses into military fortresses, retained and reinforced the military buildings in them, and did not covet Qing Feng's attack.
The investment those forts made.
From this point, it can be seen that the opponent only wants to completely defeat Qing Feng, rather than simply snatching Qing Feng's fortress.
The twenty-one fortresses captured by the opponent surrounded Qingfeng's other nine fortresses like stars over the moon.
Those nine fortresses are centered on the third-level fortress Dunqin Fortress, facing the enemy's twenty-one fortresses, but behind them are almost all new high-level maps that have not been fully developed.
In other words, Qing Feng cannot have a steady stream of players joining behind him, and if players want to support Qing Feng from the front, they need to overcome the enemy's blockade. If Qing Feng's nine fortresses are forced into
On a dead end road.
However, players can teleport directly from major cities to Qingfeng's fortress through the teleportation array, but this requires paying gold coins. Qingfeng's own members will not complain, after all, one teleportation only costs one or two gold coins.
, but other players who come to support Qingfeng may not be willing to spend these gold coins in vain. If Qingfeng asks for help, he needs to compensate others. Of course, Qingfeng does not have much pressure on this, it is just spending money. Qingfeng is still
There is no shortage of gold coins.
But once the fortress's teleportation function for non-owning players is opened, enemies can also teleport into their own fortress, which also gives Gu Weiqing a very headache.
