Release that Witch Chapter 1336: The counterattack begins

The next day, Iron Axe returned to the Cage Mountain command post by The Seagull and walked into the Adviser Department office as soon as possible.

"How about this trip?" Edith was sitting at the mahogany table, drinking black tea in a leisurely manner.

Everyone knows that for several days is so busy that it ’s common to work until early in the morning, but she still maintains a delicate image, as if she has more energy and time than others. This ability is admired even by Iron Axe Endlessly.

"Morale is available," he said shortly, answer.

"Then we can proceed to the next step." Pearl of the Northern Lands smiled, "By the way, just last night, the defenders of Finesand City also withdrew from the defensive area."

"So Deep Pond Bay is left ..." Iron Axe looked at the big map on the wall.

"I suggest that they evacuate as soon as possible and send a unit to respond, instead of waiting until the line of defense breaks."

Iron Axe nodded, and he agreed with this judgment. Today, the number of Devil gathered from west to east is likely to exceed 50,000. This number will not be a problem to surround Deep Pond Bay as a whole. Once the army meets, First Army may find it difficult to find a suitable time for retreat.

Since their strategic goals were not on the same city and place from the beginning, it was a natural decision to abandon Deep Pond Bay early in order to preserve the army.

Evacuation has never stopped since the enemy launched a massive attack. The residents and businessmen who originally maintained the city's operations were first transferred out of the city, followed by the family and noble who had served the Roland. The city at this moment was nothing but a huge empty shell. As long as the order was given, the garrison could move immediately.

"I ... don't understand ..." Agatha, muttering while watching the latest battle report, muttered.

"Is there something wrong?" Iron Axe came to her.

"The difference between the number of casualties and the statistics of the enemy annihilation ... 30 times as much, how did this happen?" Because all four cities have met the enemy in the past week, and the reports have been batched. Sent here, so need to manually summarize. In order to prevent miscalculations, she repeatedly checked the arithmetic formulas in her hands several times, and the answers obtained remained unchanged.

According to the statistics, the battles in the four cities have caused more than 1,500 casualties, but the number of enemies destroyed has reached 50,000. This is completely beyond description.

If in the Federation era, Agatha will definitely not hesitate to think that this is intentional fraud and misrepresentation of military achievements, but she has fought many times with First Army, and it is unlikely that such a problem will occur under the multi-party verification system. Even throwing away an error of 20% will not change its essence.

Know that when First Army was in the Northern Expedition Fertile Plain, it only faced 20,000 Devil troops! At that time, they relied on hundreds of kilometers of railway to build one fort after another. It took them nearly a year to win the Taqila battle.

And this time the strategy of Adviser Department is just to retreat continuously, and it has achieved twice the results of Fertile Plain in eight days?

Despite her confidence in today's human beings, the result still shocked her.

Agatha thought that this battle would be anxious.

"So that's it," Edith chuckled after reading the statistics of ice witch, "Honestly, the effect of this solution slightly exceeded my expectations. But this is not all thanks to First Army, and the cooperation of Devil is also very important. Probably that ambush caused Hykezord to be not badly injured, so it has no energy to control the details of the front line.

"Just the reason?" Agatha had a hard time channelling.

"I know what you are wondering about," Edith waved his hand. "It looks like we have changed back with just a few retreats. The battle plan can be summarized in one sentence, but it is not This is the case. You often stay behind in the Federation period. It is normal and simple to understand. Only the current First Army can perform this tactic. "

"Even First Army during the expedition to Taqila ruins?"

"At least not better than now." Pearl of the Northern Lands explained, "Retreats and defeats are often separated by a single sheet, and they can still maintain order under tremendous pressure. This is extremely difficult, let alone mention. Orderly evacuated. Changing to those noble troops, I am afraid it would be the best performance. If not First Army has withstood the test of Taqila night attack, and the order execution strength shown by the previous evacuation team, I would not Dare to take this plan into practice. "

"In addition, the role of the new weapon is also obvious at least in urban streets. They can rely on the firepower of general machine guns and field guns to compete with the enemy without the situation supported by stronghold guns. The biggest advantage of firearms is distance , Once the entire army can be moved, and always hold the advantage in their hands, it is logical to achieve this result.

Speaking of Edith paused here, "But it is also true that we have lost the outer defense line, so the next step is the key to the entire plan. Once Devil wins the four cities, it will definitely start planning the next round of offense, and Cage Mountain is a barrier , Is the origin of the raw material of Splendor of the Sun, so the impossible game of land substitution has been used. We must further reduce the strength of the enemy before it recovers.

"red mist ..." Agatha whispered.

"Yes, these four cities are already outside the red mist area. Devil's reliance on the supply line will definitely increase significantly, and the blood line is also very likely. The current front line spans almost the entire Wolf Heart. I I don't think they can take care of everything. "

"Before Mist Storage Tower was established, Devil could rely on fortress-type mutated beast and human transportation equivalent to small obelisks." Iron Axe added, "their offensives from the flanks all started with mutated beast, but according to Observations of Lightning and Macy, after a large number of wild demons have been damaged, their protection for mutated beast is much worse than before. In addition, when attacking four cities, the main supply lines of the front of Devil were all hidden in the red mist area, but next it will be expose in First Army. "

"The problem is that this means we need to take the initiative." Agatha hesitantly said, "fortress-type mutated beast can move autonomously, and it is not itself afraid of Aerial Knight's sweeping fire. If you want to destroy them, you can only send ground troops. But we can see the enemy, the enemy We can also see that, even if the protection of mutated beast is reduced, they can temporarily send reinforcements to calculate the distance back and forth. We are likely to lose our advantage in distance. If we are overtaken by Devil ... "

In the uncovered encounter, even if First Army can repel Devil, it will inevitably suffer heavy losses.

"So speed is everything," Edith raised his mouth, "as long as the counterattack then it will be alright is completed before the enemy reacts."

How can I do this? Agatha set its sights on the map, trying to find a shortcut from Cage Mountain to the four cities. There are a lot of roads between the two places. There are both commercial roads in the past and hard roads built later to speed up the evacuation. They are spread across the four cities and Cage Mountain, like a spider web.

But these roads do not have the ability to shorten distances. Not to mention that First Army does not have a cavalry unit at all, even if there are a large number of horses, can it catch up with fortress-type mutated beast? What's more, Qingqi can carry limited firepower, which is not suitable for dealing with monsters with huge size.

"Of course not now," Pearl of the Northern Lands seemed to see her puzzled. "This plan lacks a key factor, and all the conditions will be met after it is in place. But according to the plan, you will soon See it. "
