Monarch of Evernight: Under the fierce battle of 102
bsp;Of course Qianye would not let the expeditionary force retreat calmly. Even though the officers had tried their best to gather the troops and maintain the retreat formation, they still could not stop Qianye's pursuit. Under his impact again and again, the soldiers continued to fall one after another. At this moment, Qianye was like a winter wolf, following its prey, biting off a piece of meat from time to time, so the wound widened day by day.
Qianye arrived outside the town and immediately felt that he was being targeted by several sniper rifles. Then he gave up the pursuit and retreated into the town.
The town was filled with thick smoke, and there were unextinguished flames and ruins everywhere. Two guard captains came over, their bodies covered in blood. It was unclear whether it was the enemy's blood or their own. However, their fighting spirit was obviously much higher than before the war started. There were flames burning in their eyes, and the way they looked at Qianye was different from before.
Qianye is very clear about what is contained in this kind of gaze, which is the belief and admiration for the strong, it can even be said to be worship. From this moment on, Qianye truly won the respect of the two guard captains.
Qianye's heart moved, and his thoughts penetrated the fog like lightning. At that moment, he suddenly realized his problem. On this battlefield, he is no longer a warrior or a lone wolf, but a commander who needs to lead the entire battlefield.
From the perspective of maximizing personal performance, Qianye's tactics are not wrong. The ultra-long-range sniper is an independent combat unit. In most cases, it can play its best role by choosing its own fighting position. However, it is different as a battlefield commander. He needs to let his subordinates see him, trust him, and know that the leader is always with them.
This is still different from the situation in the 131st Company. It was a team that had experienced hundreds of battles. Bao Zhengcheng and the officers were solid battlefield nodes and commanders of local battles. That was their relationship with The result of countless hardships experienced by the soldiers under his command. As for Qianye's improvised team, there was neither tacit cooperation nor accumulated trust among them, and they especially needed a strong commander in battle.
The person who is most qualified for this position is Wei Potian. Qianye has seen him fight in Dark Blood City, and has also seen his leadership style during the Tianxuan Spring Hunt. He took the lead, attacked the central army, and sacrificed everything. Whose courage is most suitable for fighting on the frontal battlefield? Just looking at Wei Potian's status and prestige among his fellow Broken Wing Angels, we can tell that this style is very suitable for leading troops.
Qianye, whether in Huangquan or Red Scorpion, learned the art of killing, and after coming to Yongye Continent, he became more accustomed to guerrilla hunting. But in today's battle of more than a thousand people, if you want to win with a small number and there is no dangerous fortress to occupy, maintaining morale is the most important thing, which means that you still have to rely on the front to break the situation.
This is the difference between a general and a soldier. This is an era that belongs to the strong, and it is also an era that only belongs to the strong!
From the moment he threw the vampire force grenade, Qianye appeared on the battlefield with an unrivaled attitude. Anyone who dared to challenge him, from second lieutenant to major, was instantly killed by him! This was an extremely heavy blow to the morale of the expeditionary force, and it also greatly improved our own morale.
The expeditionary force's first attack was finally repelled.
In addition to the two guard captains, those who gathered in front of Qianye were also the soldiers in the seeds. They were originally assigned the task of leading the team when they were formed. After the battle just now, they seemed to be the core of their respective teams. There were several experienced veterans who began to gather the team members as soon as the battle was over.
Qianye didn't say much, and simply ordered: "Count the casualties immediately and rearrange the defenses. Remember to distribute weapons and equipment to everyone. We have enough weapons now." He glanced at Manchu The corpses of soldiers from the Zhen Expeditionary Force.
After everyone dispersed and was busy, Qianye climbed onto the incomplete town wall tower alone and looked at the expeditionary force in the distance. The expeditionary force retreated a thousand meters away before regrouping. It was obvious that the opponent's commander was deeply wary of Qianye's eagle attack, and could only dare to reorganize his team if he hid outside the range of the eagle attack.
Qianye’s eyes were fixed on the lieutenant colonel in front of the queue. In fact, at this distance, the customized and modified Eagle Strike in his hand could completely reach the lieutenant colonel. But the distance was too far, and the lieutenant colonel had enough buffer time to dodge and escape.
"Sir, you are injured." This was a slightly childish voice, obviously nervous.
Qianye looked back and saw that she was a young girl belonging to the Seed family. The soot and blood stains on her face could not hide her beauty.
Looking down at the girl's gaze, Qianye saw a pool of blood on his waist. There was a **** wound there. To his surprise, blood was still oozing from the wound.
Qianye himself couldn't remember when he was injured. Maybe he was hit by a hail of bullets against the assault battalion that was gathering in the square, or maybe he was shot in the dark when the expeditionary force retreated and pursued. He secretly mobilized his blood energy and found that there was a cold force lingering in the injured area, hindering the recovery of the wound.
The person who shot Qianye obviously also had a special talent. This kind of cold force power was quite rare and very practical in battle. If that person had enough time to grow, he would probably become a strong man, but it was a pity that he met Qianye. Although Qianye didn't know who this person was, he clearly remembered that anyone who shot at him with a force gun had already become one of his achievements.
This is war.
Outside the town, the lieutenant colonel's face was gloomy, and the face of the battalion commander of the 7th Division beside him was not much better.
The battalion commander of the 7th Division suddenly said: "I will be the first to fight in the next battle!"
The lieutenant colonel commander shook his head and said: "The assault battalion commander of our division, my deputy commander, and another battalion commander all died in the town. Do you think you will perform better than them if you go up? Better?"
The battalion commander shouted: "At least I'm not afraid of death!"
The lieutenant colonel leader said coldly: "No one here is afraid of death! The problem is to make death useful! If you are the first to rush forward, what else can you do besides being a target for that kid? Can you let us fight? Will you win this battle?"
The battalion commander's face was turning green and white, and he couldn't help but sneered: "It is true that no one is afraid of death. It's just people who don't know who those guys who just escaped are."
The group leader snorted and said nothing. Those are naturally his soldiers.
The battalion commander looked at the time, suddenly became anxious, and asked: "When will we attack?"
"Continue to rest, at least until daybreak. The current condition of the troops is not suitable for an attack."
"But our Seventh Division can't wait! All the seeds must be destroyed before dark tomorrow!"
"That is your Seventh Division's business."
The battalion commander couldn't help shouting again: "If our seventh division is defeated, do you think your fifteenth division will be better off? Don't forget, those things were all done together."
The lieutenant colonel commander's face was as gloomy as a black stone. He stared at the battalion commander of the 7th Division. After a long time, he turned to his guards and shouted: "Go, report to the division commander, I want reinforcements! Really powerful reinforcements!”
The messenger jumped on the off-road vehicle and flew away. This place is only a few dozen kilometers away from the station of the 15th Division, and reinforcements will arrive in droves in the afternoon of the next day. As for the reaction of the 10th Division stationed locally? That's something the generals need to think about.
The battalion commander of the 7th Division just looked better, and the lieutenant colonel of the 15th Division said coldly: "Did your 7th Division only send one battalion here? Don't forget about this. If we are really exposed, our 15th Division will certainly be unlucky, but as the leader and planner, the 7th Division is waiting to be pushed to the front line!"
The battalion commander's face immediately turned ugly again.
The lieutenant colonel didn't say anything more, believing that the battalion commander could understand what he meant. He called his adjutant and began to count the casualties and damage.
In the first round of attack, the expeditionary force left nearly 400 corpses and suffered more than one fifth casualties. Although I believe that Qianye's side must not be having a good time, the number of casualties is still far higher than expected, and the town has not yet been defeated.
At this time, the regimental commander's major adjutant hurried over and lowered his voice and said: "Sir, the situation is not good. The casualties of our officers are too high, and some brothers want to refuse to go to the battlefield again."
"How many casualties are there?" the lieutenant colonel asked calmly.
“More than fifty people died in the battle!”
"What?" The lieutenant colonel could no longer maintain his composure. He said a few more words to the major, then turned back to the battalion commander of the 7th Division and sneered: "This is the fifth-level soldier mentioned in your intelligence. ? Which level 5 warrior have you seen that can kill so many of my lieutenants?"
At the end, the lieutenant colonel was roaring, and the spittle flew directly into the face of the battalion commander of the 7th Division! The battalion commander was speechless and could only smile bitterly, not even wiping the saliva from his face.
In the small town, Qianye simply treated the wounds on his body and then began to walk around to inspect the defense situation. The casualties on his side were not bad. The casualties among the Seeds and the Far East Heavy Industries guards were only over a hundred, which was completely within the acceptable range. And after the life-and-death battle just now, Qianye no longer saw fear in the eyes of these young people, but only courage and admiration.
A general who will always appear in the most dangerous places and attack the most powerful enemies will definitely be loved by the soldiers.
Looking at the young warriors who were gradually gathering, Qianye said calmly: "Keep on holding on, as long as we survive the next round of attacks, our reinforcements will arrive tomorrow evening. This is the place of the Wei family in the Far East, in the empire In front of a top-ranking family, the two division commanders of the Expedition Military Region are nothing."
There was complete silence for a moment, and then the seeds cheered, and the fatigue and pain seemed to be swept away. To them, the expeditionary force is an unrivaled behemoth, the ruler of the Evernight Continent. They may not be afraid of death, but the future is still unclear. Even if they win this time, what about the next time?
No one had told them where this temporary town was before. Maybe many of them didn’t know the name of the Wei family in the Far East, but the words of the empire’s top-ranking family couldn’t be clearer, which meant they could communicate with them. The existence of a behemoth like the Expeditionary Force to compete with them also means that their future is not without a glimmer of hope, as long as they survive!
The battlefield is always full of surprises. Qianye did not wait for reinforcements from Wei Potian, but instead waited for reinforcements from the 15th Division.
This time the Fifteenth Division sent another entire regiment. It was already the limit of the Fifteenth Division to dispatch two regiments across its own defense zone in a short period of time. The 10th Division in Broken River City, twenty kilometers away, still remained silent.
PS: Before I knew it, I had received 20,000 red envelopes from everyone during the Dragon Boat Festival event. Thank you all, I will update more in the evening.
Thanks to the new alliance leader, Piltover Law Enforcement Officer Wei.
