Rout
Chapter 1159:Rout
The celebration lasted only a short time, and the position was busy again.
The treatment of the wounded, the statistical results, the promotion of the railways, the cleaning of the battlefield... these are all urgent matters.
The command is well aware that the victory of this war does not mean the end of the torch operation, although judging by the remaining strength of the devil, they are unlikely to launch another attack of this magnitude, and the capture of Takila is almost a foregone conclusion, but it has not reached the last step, and no one dares to take it lightly.Not to mention that the demon bearer is still alive, and if this threat cannot be completely eliminated, it cannot be regarded as a perfect goal.
Humans are indeed worth celebrating, but that will have to wait until the gray castle flag is planted at the highest point of the ruins and successfully returns to Winterfell.
After some discussion, the high-level of the United Front reached a consensus that, after removing the demons that had been destroyed in the war, the number of enemies in the ruins of the holy city should be less than 500.From the perspective of strength comparison alone, this means that the other side has no positive threat to the ability of the First Army.
Compared with the previous steady progress, it is now necessary to prevent the escape of the despots - Tower 10 station can be slowed down to avoid premature loss of combat intentions.At the same time, the ambush should also be carried out as soon as possible, and even without the investigation of Hilvi, the positions of the First Army are now unlikely to be attacked.
In order to avoid long dreams of the night, after a day of rest, the First Army once again launched a shelling on the devil, but this time, they became the attacking side.
In the face of the roaring shells, the only thing the other side can do is step back, give up the trench a little bit, and return to the ruins of Takila.
Only the deminers were left to threaten the defensive line, but as a focus on the target, it was difficult to even approach the position, not to mention to prevent the First Army from advancing.
With repeated inconvenient, the number of times it has moved less and less.
On the fourth day after the war, the track finally broke into a ten-kilometer shooting circle.
After the artillery positions were set up, more than a hundred people such as Ai Gesha and phiris were invited to the front of the fortress gun lined up by the iron axe.
Because the number of artillery guns was far from enough, Vanner, the commander of the artillery battalion, also specially prepared a dozen ropes, and tied them together with the tangerine.In this way, they can "at the same time" pull the first shot at the city of Tagila.
Born of the Awakeners of Takira, the Avengers who purifyed Tahira... and the builders of the future New Holy City, every divinely punishing witch realizes that this will be a moment of great historical significance.Whether they live to the end of God’s war, this scene today will be remembered in the history books.
"I have to apologize to you."Phbris took the rope and whispered to Egtha, "Four hundred years ago, I laughed at your practice of appointing mortals behind my back, saying that handing over the important work at hand would only make the result a mess."
“There were a lot of people who said that,” the Ice Witch laughed, “and now?”
"Now," said pherys, lifting her mouth, "it is not bad to fight with mortals."
“Prepare—” At that moment, Vanner raised the command flag, “fire!”
The crowd pulled the twitch back together, and the rumbling roar suddenly echoed over the position - more than a dozen shells vacated, swept across the plain, and scrambled into the ruins of the Holy City.
The violent shock wave spread out with a sound explosion, sweeping the remains of this ancient city that has been left 400 years ago, and it is torn by waves and stone debris, and the devil is hiding in it.
...
“It started.”Hilvy whispered.
“Hmm.”Andrea responded somewhat carelessly, and even if she could not see the situation of Takira, he could hear one or two from the dull explosion - the tremor and the roar of the gun were very different, even if they were seven or eight kilometers apart, the power contained in it could be felt.
It is hard to imagine what kind of experience it would be like to be bombarded by the fortress gun in the heart of the devil for a night.
“This is the fifth day, isn’t it?”Maggie muttered, “Will the Demon Master come here today?”
“Who knows.”The ash shrugged.
"I want to go back to winter without hot pot and frying dumplings."
“The Gollum.”
Her voice had not yet dropped, and there was a sound of gastrointestinal squirming among the people.
"Of course, it's good to burn meat on iron plates, and it would be better to have another ice cream bread--oh-"
The ash stuffed a piece of dry food into Maggie's mouth, "If you feel hungry, eat more of this, although the taste is not good, but at least you can fill your stomach."
“And don’t forget that we’re still on a mission,” Ms. Darry added, “and gourmet food and think about it, and now focus on it and take your duties seriously.”
This guy is still so serious, obviously just now the throat also moved.Andrea shook her head and turned her attention back in the direction of Takira.
As the First Army was transferred from the guard, the Special Operations Group also left the camp as scheduled, bypassing the ruins of the Takila and lurking in a forest on the west side of the supply line.Unable to determine the intent and timing of the demonic retreat, they can only wait patiently here to wait for the opportunity to arrive.
Although survival in the wild is not difficult for witches, considering that there are still monsters in the air, let alone fire to roast the game, even a tent that shades the sun and rain.Every night, everyone was wrapped in a thick cloth and slept in a tree, and when they were hungry, they ate two wheat cakes, naturally they would not be comfortable.
Honestly, when she heard Maggie’s words, she suddenly had a strong miss of winter.When she first moved from Sleepy Island to Neverwinter, she thought that this was just a new foothold, and the so-called "witch's home" was only the ruler's boast, and if Tiley decided to leave one day, she would not hesitate to follow along.But now, in the face of this problem, Andrea is not too sure...
The soft bed, the deliciousness of the flowers, the automatic flow of hot and cold water, the heating of the feet in winter - even if she was a member of the Quinn nobles, she did not enjoy such a comfortable life.It was not simply a luxury of relying on the golden dragon, but from beginning to end it was full of exquisiteness and chic, and at the thought of saying goodbye to these completely, she found that it was really difficult to make a choice.
Fortunately, Tily and Roland got along well, so that she did not have to worry about the question of where to go.
When the detonator is solved, he must ask His Majesty Roland to reward himself, Andrea thought.
The ideal result is that the target is to hold the takira, the artillery bombarded with pieces, followed by the absence of the ambush group when running away, and was killed by the divine penalty bullet in the air; the most important thing is that the other side has long been aware of their ability to have a long-distance precision resistance, using the ground to fly and constantly change direction to avoid, so that it can only be intercepted by the seagull.
However, she was vaguely not much confident in the first two situations, and in the night battle five days ago, the deancer once approached the position from Takila, but it kept a regular movement throughout the process, and never gave her a chance to find a hand.Is this a coincidence or is it deliberately guarding itself?
“Oh, oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh—”
Suddenly, a strange cry came into everyone’s ears.
“What happened?”Ash asked.
“A shell hit a giant skeleton!”“It’s been blown up in a big hole in its back, my God, that thing... howling!”
Can you feel the pain too?Just looking at the outside, I thought it was just an empty shelf dead.”
"The place where you're hit is spewing red mist, like... blood."Hilvi looked intently to the southeast, "the dean is also out, and it is rushing toward our position."
"I hope someone can shoot it."Andrea stood up.
“Wait... no, the Demon Man flew to half-fold back!”After observing for a moment, Silver couldn’t help but frown, “What’s going on?”The skeleton seems to be retreating backwards!There are demons who want to stop the skeleton, but they are stepping on a meat sauce—the ruins are already in a mess, they are...”
After a while, she said in an uncertain tone, “The devil is killing each other?”
Andrea and Ashes looked at each other, and in every way, it was a sign of defeat—is the enemy finally unable to bear the pressure and completely lose the will to fight?
Soon, Hilvy’s words confirmed the idea.
“The Demon Man has escaped from Takilla!”
