Chapter 206 Jungle Battle

sunset.

Although it was covered by tall and dense trees, Vega knew through the military pocket watch on his body that it was the time when the sun was setting and it was about to enter the night.

Now comes the real test.

Even though he didn't know anything about forest warfare, Veigar, who had consulted a lot of information, still knew that what really needed attention in forest warfare was not only the enemy, but also the dangers posed by the forest itself.

What are the dangers inherent in the forest?
Temperature difference between day and night, beasts, humid environment, food supplies, rain, snow, wind and frost...

Among them, the temperature difference between day and night and the long-term humid environment are likely to cause infection and respiratory diseases. Coupled with the infestation of wild animals, it may even cause an army to be defeated without a fight. This is the purpose of Vega's first establishment of the base. .

At least in the building, there is no need to worry about soldiers being frozen to death in the wilderness, or causing infectious diseases due to long-term immersion in the harsh environment, and even preventing the invasion of some wild animals.

"Report."

The scouts who went out would come back every three hours and report: "A troop has successfully defeated the third troop, and its strength has increased to 5000, and it is still looking for new attack targets."

"Continue to investigate."

Hearing this news, Veigar didn't panic, nor did he hastily avoid the opponent's sharp edge.

Rather than saying he wasn't panicking, it might be better to say that Veigar was about to swallow the opponent's troops.

Swallow 1600 soldiers with 5000 troops?

It wasn't that Veigar was crazy to set such an irrational goal.

He's not crazy, he's not bloated, he feels better than ever, and his brain is clearer than ever.

Still looking for prey at this point?
Veigar had already determined that the opponent was not only dazzled by the points, but even less aware of the main points of forest warfare than he was.

Since the opponent ignores the power of the forest, Veigar doesn't mind borrowing an opportunity to let the opponent understand that a large number of people does not guarantee victory in a forest battle. Without organization and planning, the number of people will even become a burden.

time flies.

Five hours later, the night was as cold as water.

When the time was close to 12:00 in the morning, everything was as Vegar expected, and the temperature began to drop.

Although the temperature difference between day and night in the forest is not as exaggerated as in the desert, it is about 5-8 degrees Celsius lower than that in the daytime, so the current temperature is around -15 degrees Celsius.

It seems that even the heavens are helping Veigar.

It was raining and snowing an hour ago. Cold rain and snowflakes dripped down hundreds of feet of pine trees. The dark forest was like an ancient beast that craved humans. They are close to collapse.

This is not counting.

The forest nights in winter are long and the days are short, and the night is as long as 17 hours at the highest point, and the total of spring and summer does not even exceed 3 months throughout the year, and most of the time is either autumn or winter.

So in this cold environment, another three hours passed, and the time came to 2.30 in the morning.

"Report."

The scout came back from the front again: "Due to the drop in temperature and the change of the weather, most of the soldiers of Unit A are in a state of extreme exhaustion, and the overall combat effectiveness has dropped by about 60.00%."

"Did the other party not build any fortifications?"

"Team A was busy fighting and never established a defensive line."

The scout continued: "Due to the fall of night, not only did Unit A not have time to build fortifications, but even the basic cold-proof buildings could not be built in time. This is the main reason why most soldiers lost their combat effectiveness."

Veigar thought for a moment.

Then he immediately ordered: "Wake up the soldiers who are resting. We will launch an attack in half an hour. It is also time to let the other party know who is the real king of the forest."

"Yes, Commander." The scout gave the order.

So half an hour later, Vega led 1600 soldiers who were well-rested and walked towards the station of the A troop.

The forest is naturally a layer of camouflage.

After secretly killing the enemy's scouts, Veigar led his troops close to the opponent's position of 100 meters. The enemy has not yet found his trace, and it can be said that he is almost defenseless.

Looking forward.

Although the entire army has as many as 5000 people, most of them were recruited more than ten hours ago. Low morale is inevitable. In addition to morale, due to the cold and humid environment and the lack of buildings to keep out the cold, this army unexpectedly He leaned against the tree and fell asleep directly, and several injured soldiers even froze to death because of it.

At this time.

Veigar discovered that there was a shabby log cabin in the central area of ​​the army, which was so small that it could only accommodate one person. It looked like it was built in a hurry with local materials. He even suspected that it would fall to the ground if the wind blows. .

"I like enemies like this."

A smile appeared at the corner of Vega's mouth. Didn't this wooden house clearly tell him that this is where the commander of the army is?

After all, this is not reality.

So according to the rules.

As long as the commander is killed, the soldiers under his account will become unowned. At this time, they can be directly recruited, but the morale will continue to be low, and it will take several days to display 100% combat effectiveness.

Therefore, Veigar took care of his heart and prepared to execute the beheading tactic.

When it comes to beheading tactics, it is naturally the home of the shadow mage, and Veigar himself is a level 3 shadow mage.

This is not a foul.

Because in the eyes of the military, the personal strength of the commander is also one of the decisive factors in the war, and there is no fairness in the war, and only the winner has the right to speak.

However, Veigar did not rush into the enemy camp.

Whether as a commander or a shadow mage, you will never put yourself in a dangerous situation.

So he ordered to the fire magician: "After 5 minutes, release a flame explosion towards the wooden house, and then cover the large troops to attack. I need you to make the noise as loud as possible."

"Yes, Commander." The fire magician should be.

Veigar nodded, activated the trick technique and sneaked towards the wooden house.

In the 3rd minute, he came near the wooden house, but instead of sneaking into the wooden house to decapitate, he climbed to a pine next to the wooden house and waited quietly.

boom--

As soon as the fifth minute arrived, a flame burst fell from the sky and hit the wooden house accurately. The blazing flames illuminated the forest and opened the prelude to the war.

"The whole army, attack!"

Two professional squads plunged into the enemy's formation like arrows, followed by the main force, covered by fire magicians. This sudden attack instantly stunned the A troop.

But after a few minutes, the A-unit began to resist hastily.

According to the rules, if the commander dies, the troops will not continue to resist, so that means that the flame explosion just now didn't seem to directly kill the enemy commander?
