Lord of War

  Hurrying up, it took a full month and a half before William finally returned to the station of the Thunder Lion.

Originally, after returning from the Gorge Rift, the first stop should be the original Panda Town and today’s Steel Wings Training Base, but in the middle of the journey, I received a shipment from Neal again, and realized that in this one and a half month, The situation has changed again.

  So far, which nobleman this mysterious elite division belongs to is still an unsolved mystery. However, the target of this group of people's action was thoroughly detected: they came to the Military Research Institute in the Thunder Lion's resident.

It is no secret that Sean’s steel wings and the Thunder Lion are equipped with special equipment such as [Impact Shield]. Especially in the several cavalry battles with the Kingdom of Darbion, how useful the impact shield was. After the war, interested people can easily learn about it after a little collection of information, so they will be jealous about the production of the impact shield. Drawings are naturally a matter of reason.

  Especially, after the war with Darbion ended, Ryan had many nobles who joined forces to put pressure on Sean and asked Sean to share the secret of the impact shield. Originally, their abacus was doing well, and it was nothing more than using the theory of seniority to bully such a new nobleman like Sean. In the past, this trick was extremely threatening to those new nobles, and they naturally had to bow their heads.

  But who is Sean?

  Simply saying "If you want to fight, then let's fight a fight" and choked those nobles dare not continue to speak.

What happened after    was that Sean was forced to flee for thousands of miles in the Senne area of ​​the Kingdom of Lane. At that time, those families were naturally deliberately settling down. It’s just that the stones they threw down were too small, and they couldn’t even take a lot of splashes. After learning that Sean was promoted to Grand Duke, they all sent gifts, so Sean didn’t bother to continue entangled with them. He didn't have any thoughts to deal with it.

  Now. The two main forces of the Void Principality-Cecilia's Guard of Clover and Alfred's Lion of Thunder are not in the country, and they are seconded to Wiles to deal with the third guard of the former Kingdom of Darbion. , So the current Void Principality is actually at a relatively weak stage in terms of military strength. However, this weakness is also relatively speaking, for the lords bordering the Void Principality. The Void Principality is still a hideous and huge monster.

   But whether it is William or Sean or Hela. They never thought that someone would seize the weakest opportunity of the Void Principality to show its fangs, which really surprised them. After all, the departure of the Thunder Lion and Cecilia's Guards did not show much fanfare, but did not conceal anything. Those who are interested can know it after a little inquiries.

  I have to say that it will lead to such a situation in today's Void Duchy, which has a lot to do with the reasons why William and others are too conceited.

  But the matter is over, it is obviously useless to feel annoyed or regret it. How to remedy it is the key to the problem.

   Annihilate this enemy army that has penetrated deep into the territory. There is no doubt about it, and it is not difficult for William. If Neil was not dragged down by other things, I am afraid that the enemy army would have been resolved before William returned home, but now Neil did not take action personally, but threw the mess to William, which also means that the enemy army is not enough. In order to pose any substantial harm to the Void Principality.

  Of course, there is some destructive power.

  The area occupied by this enemy army. Within a radius of five hundred miles, it has been brought under its control, which directly led to the destruction of two villages and a small town. Fortunately. At the moment when this enemy army set up a defensive stronghold, Neil had already ordered the surrounding residents to evacuate, so the destruction of the town and village was only the destruction of property and food reserves and other materials, and the village was set on fire. It only destroys the terrain, and there is almost no harm to the civilian grassroots.

  But just a week ago, this army obviously had a new movement: they tried to attack the thunder lion’s resident.

  It was precisely because of this movement that Neil knew that their target was the Military Research Institute of the Void Duchy.

It’s just that Neil has already set up the game in the Thunder Lion’s resident. Rena rushed to the Thunder Lion to sit in person. At the same time, Neil moved to the Thunder Lion’s resident and was on standby. There were also the First Cavalry Regiment and the entire steel wings. . Therefore, the enemies who rushed into the Thunder Lion's residence were naturally tantamount to throwing themselves into the trap. Rina and Anno were caught off guard, and no one could even escape afterwards.

  The first cavalry regiment, under the guidance of Rena, can no longer master the technique of chasing and killing the tail.

  Unfortunately, the enemy only came with less than a hundred people. Obviously, they were preparing to infiltrate secretly, but in the end they underestimated the security forces of the Military Research Institute and Armory Workshop, so they were finally discovered. However, this battle also completely exposed the other party's inherent strength: this group of sneak attackers who tried to sneak in actually had several golden powerhouses in charge, if it weren't for Rena, I'm afraid they would really be caught by them.

  After reading the information, William's brows became tighter. These abnormal phenomena made him fully affirm that the enemy must have prepared a surprise soldier, otherwise he would not try to paralyze the nerves of William and others with such a big fanfare. It’s just that William is difficult to guess what the role and purpose of this auspicious soldier is. However, it is certain that the research materials in the Military Research Institute and the Shock Shield II of the Armory must belong to these people. One of the established goals.

  When arriving at the thunder lion’s resident, the steel wings that had already received the order and completed the assembly had been waiting for a long time.

  Anno still looked that silly smile, just standing at the forefront of the steel wings. Standing next to him is Abaza, who has become the deputy head of Steel Wing. This northern barbarian has a completely different personality and thinking from his tribe. He is not only smart and easy to learn, but also has very good potential. After undergoing several instructions from William, he has now faintly become the true commander of Steel Wing.

  It’s just that the Northland Barbarians are a group of love and righteous guys, so before Anno officially abdicated, the nominal commander of Steel Wing is still Anno. However, with the assistance of Abaza, Anno can really relax a lot, and the flaws of the original steel wings that were not good at thinking and tactics have also been perfectly solved under the command of Abaza. It can be said that today's steel wings are the real ones. Not inferior to the powerful army of the Thunder Lion and Cecilia's Guards.

  Because of preventing a surprise attack, William did not dare to lead the entire steel wings out. He only brought four thousand people.

This number is two thousand more than he originally expected, mainly because Rena's 1st Cavalry Regiment is also assisting in the defense of the Thunder Lions station, so William will bring this enough to pose a threat to the enemy. Absolute advantage. And among the entourage, there is Roti Kabas, the newly promoted sanctuary powerhouse, who is in charge, so there is no need to worry about combat effectiveness.

   Again. William's plan in military strategy. It is also unmatched.

In addition to this bright army, Rena and her 1st Cavalry Regiment are also on standby at any time, but they are not personally sitting in the thunder lion’s garrison, but are pulling away from the army commanded by William. Two-day trip. This distance happens to be in the middle of the battlefield: it takes about three days to the Void City, and about four days to the thunder lion’s residence. If it is a rapid march, this distance can be shortened by about one and a half days.

  Therefore, whether it is the Thunder Lion's resident sending out a signal for help, or the Void City is attacked by the enemy's surprise soldiers. Rena can rush to help at the first time.

  And in the void city. Although there is no such powerful army as the Thunder Lion and Steel Wings, the jet black wings are not vegetarian. The quasi-fourth level of combat power is there, and it is still a defense-oriented army. What's more, there are the priests of the Church of Ice and Winter and Xuefanio, whose real combat power is much stronger than that of the thunder lion resident. It's just that Xuefanio and his priests were too late to support William. After all, they were not cavalry units, and it would take more than half a day to travel to the Thunder Lion. So in fact, Xuefanio's strategic value is to prevent the Thunder Lion from being attacked.

  It can be said that the battle plan arranged by William. It is already completely foolproof.

  Whether it is the thunder lion residence or the Void City, all aspects have been taken care of, and even William deliberately sold a flaw, just to induce the appearance of the strange soldier who still does not know whereabouts. As for whether the opponent will be fooled, William can't guarantee. After all, the opponent's level of strategy is not low, and he is obviously good at grasping people's hearts. If it is not, it will not allow the enemy to invade here.

  But this point also taught William and Neal that they should pay more attention to the people at the grass-roots level, instead of confining their eyes to the nobles and upper-level people.

  The real lead party is often the local officials who have real power but are not given special attention.

   rushing non-stop, finally, a few days later, arrived in front of the fortification stronghold that was invaded and occupied by the enemy.

  Obviously, the enemy had already received the news, so when William and the others arrived, the opponent had already deployed a defensive formation relying on the town they had occupied. As soon as William saw the layout of the entire town and the defensive formation deployed by the enemy, his eyes became gloomy: "The commander of the opponent is like Stalin."

"Well, it is indeed very similar to Master Stalin's style." Abaza scratched his head, his face also looked very ugly, "We Steel Wings were originally good at this kind of tactics, although they are similar to those of Master Stalin, regardless of whether they are defending. There are some differences between the city's defense or the defense-based combat method, but in essence there are many things in common. In this battle, there is no other way to win this battle except for the strong attack."

   Hearing Abaza’s question, William took a deep look at him, his eyes full of admiration.

  As the next Steel Wing Commander who has been appointed by default, Abaza's performance so far is very in line with the level of an excellent commander. And in terms of personal strength, Abaza's potential is also great. Although it is only upper-level silver now, you must know that Abaza is now only twenty years old. It is a certainty to break into the realm of upper-level gold.

  Excellent personal strength, excellent command potential, all of which are destined for Abaza's future achievements are definitely not low.

  If it were not for the particularity of the Iron Wings, William would want to transfer Abaza to Conviction Wings as the commander. After all, the number of candidates who can serve as the commander of the Wings of Conviction is actually not too few, but the real value of the Wings of Conviction is less; but no matter what, the candidates for the Legion of the Wings of Conviction are still relatively large. Yes, but how many years have passed since the establishment of Steel Wings, but only one person like Abaza has appeared.

   "If you attack, the loss will be great for us." Slowly withdraw his gaze. William's gaze fell again on the already established defensive base in the distance, "How's the investigation situation?"

Abaza handed over a piece of information to William, who turned a glance, frowning involuntarily: "A multi-level defensive formation is actually used....If the opponent is not a celebrity, I would definitely not I will believe it."

  Multi-level defensive formation structure. It is a defensive tactic that is very suitable for small spaces.

  Simply put it. It is to arrange a ring of fortifications in a very limited terrain, but it is not a layout like a big ring with a small ring, but a number of ring defenses are arranged at the same time to stack together, so that no matter what Which defensive ring layer is attacked will also face attacks on the fortifications of the other two surrounding rings at the same time. And with the gradual advancement, this kind of superimposed defense area will gradually increase. At that time, it will be possible to face simultaneous attacks on the fourth and fifth rings.

It can be said. This is a defensive tactic that uses the terrain to the extreme.

  The scale of two thousand people, with this defensive tactics, William estimated that at least four thousand or even five thousand people can be used.

"No wonder the other party dared to go deep here with only two thousand people. It seems that everything has already been prepared." William said in a deep voice, "The biggest problem at the moment is that I don't know what the other party's real goal is.... If we can know it, we can launch targeted tactics. It seems that this time our enemy has sounded a wake-up call for us."

   "Then. What shall we do next?" Anno is not good at thinking, but has been conquering with steel wings for so many years. I have learned a lot of things, "Please redeploy the troops? Rina-sama seems to be not far away from us."

"This kind of defensive warfare is meaningless unless it is to mobilize the Scarlet Knights to work together." William shook his head, and then continued, "There is only one way to deal with this defensive tactic, and that is to use force. Of course, even if it is a strong pressure, there are many options, or it is to launch a simultaneous attack from multiple aspects, forcing the opponent to be unable to look at each other from end to end, so the threat will be greatly reduced.... The other is to ignore it. Everything is pushed forward directly, fighting step by step."

   "Step by step?" Rorty Kabas lost his voice immediately, "This... is it too bloody?"

  Obviously, Rorty Kabas heard the meaning of William’s words the first time.

  Abaza, under the scream of Rorty Kabas, after a little thought, he understood the meaning of William's tactics.

  Multi-level defensive formation structure is a defensive tactic that uses the number of people, terrain, and fortifications to the extreme. Basically using this tactic, in addition to the specific terrain restrictions, it is also limited in people’s minds, at least if it is not for all the members to die, this tactic will not play any value at all, so no matter it is Willian adopts the former tactics or the latter tactics, and the sacrifices are great.

  The only difference is that the sacrifice of the former tactic is less than that of the latter.

  Because the so-called step-by-step battalion is a tactic of fighting every inch of the earth.

  In the tactics of the multi-level defensive formation, there is only annihilation of the entire army, and no other possibility exists. Therefore, fighting every inch of the earth is naturally a constant struggle to lose and see who can't bear it first, so even if it is a victory, it can only be said to be a miserable victory. However, if the former tactic is to be used, it is obviously not enough to rely on the steel wings of four thousand people. On the contrary, it is easy to cause the loss of the steel wings to be further enlarged.

  And the value of an elite army is very clear to any general.

Even William was reluctant to lose too much of the steel wings, but the other party directly invested a full two thousand elite soldiers, and many golden powerhouses, and they all fought with the belief that they would die. This kind of conspiracy is natural. great. It's just that William couldn't guess what the other party's goal was, so all this made William fall into a kind of passivity.

"Only at this time, I will miss Hela." William sighed and smiled helplessly. "That guy has a much sharper sense of smell than me. This is exactly like an antelope with horns. The plot can only be analyzed by that guy, and Neil and I are not in this regard after all."

"Master William. Give the order." Under the explanation of Abaza, Anno also understood the **** step by step, but he just said without thinking, "If it weren't for Lord Sean and Lord William, we I still don’t know what we’re doing. It’s you who gave us the status we are today. At this time the enemy has already hit the house. How can we continue to stay like this? Even if we die, we will certainly make the enemy pay the same. A terrible price!"

"Correct!"

   "Master William, give orders!"

   "We are not afraid of death!"

   "The northern barbarians have never been afraid of anything!"

  For a time, these four thousand steel-winged soldiers immediately rushed into a crowd, and everyone shouted, not caring about all the possible results of the battalion tactics. For them, without Sean and William. They are still just slaves today. Even if you have to live the days when you don’t have enough food and don’t wear warm clothes, how can it be possible to live a good life like now.

  So for them, the fundamentals of death are not terrible at all. As long as they can wipe out all the enemies, their value can be reflected.

"Master William, give the order." Abaza also said, his gaze was as firm as Anno, "It's just a tragic fight. In the war with Darbion, we didn't have steel wings. We were beaten to the point of disbanding on both occasions. Later, it didn’t recover as well.... Sir William, for us, war is already the same thing as eating and breathing. We don’t fear death at all, so... …Order it."

  William glanced at Anno, then at Abaza and the entire steel wings.

The   Steel Wings Legion is already an old-fledged Legion of the Void Duchy. Its formation history is even before the Thunder Lion and the Cecilia Guards. It is the first legion of the Void Duchy. In the past wars, Iron Wings suffered heavy losses not once or twice. Basically, the Northland barbarians who came out with Sean back then were basically dead. Now the Iron Wing soldiers are generally 16 to 2 years old. Between the ages of fifteen, few people are over thirty.

At this moment, the four thousand steel-winged soldiers brought out by William can be regarded as members of the older generation. They are basically around 23 years old, and they have experienced wars that are not too few. They are truly elite veterans. . But after this battle, even if the enemy can be wiped out, there won't be many people left in the end. After all, the threat of a multi-level defensive formation structure, William could not be clearer.

Stalin is the master of this tactic.

   Now Stalin, who specializes in defensive warfare, has collected reports on various classic defensive warfare on the continent through the Void Realm. In this regard, he has already studied very deeply. If you just talk about defense warfare experts, even William is definitely not as good as Stalin. It's just that Stalin was only good at defensive warfare. In other respects, Stalin was much inferior. So regarding Stalin's positioning, both William and Hella had an internal consensus.

   "I will join the war, too." Rorty Kabas looked at William and said in a deep voice.

"Be careful. In this kind of environment, even if you make a move, I'm afraid it will be easy to encounter accidents." William reminded, "Your identity is quite special. I can't directly order you to do anything, but no matter what What to say, I hope you can pay attention to... them."

   "I know." Rorty Kabas nodded.

This time, William did not speak any more, but slowly raised his right hand, staring coldly at the small town ahead that had been completely transformed into a large fortification base, and shouted in a deep voice: "Steel Wings! dinner's ready!"

   "Oh! It's dinner!"

  The steel wing charge command, which has been famous for many years, resounds once again in this land! (To be continued~^~)

  PS:  This plot is really difficult to write. Recently, there have been some private issues, and the update speed may slow down. However, since the decision to give up full attendance, the quality will definitely be improved and guaranteed, and the update will not be interrupted. You can rest assured.
