Almighty Lord: I can modify hidden entries
Chapter 234
"In this trial attack, the orcs will retreat ten kilometers, and the battlefield buffer zone is thirty kilometers long. It is expected that they can continue to delay the opponent for half a day."
"The total number of soldiers in Broken Vein Fort is 3.67 million, and the total number of soldiers and civilians is 3.55 million. At present, more than 1.6 million soldiers and civilians have been evacuated, and 850,000 troops have been evacuated. It is expected that it will take five days at the earliest. , so that they can all evacuate.”
During the phone call, Gudern was listening to Buniton's report and thinking about the next step.
"Have you sent someone to check the evacuation route arrangements and choices on the spot?"
"After inspection, a total of two reconnaissance companies were sent out to basically understand the road conditions within fifty kilometers nearby. It is estimated that by the time of evacuation, the situation within a hundred kilometers nearby can be grasped."
"Okay, you can arrange things on the front line. If there is anything you can't handle, go to the Imperial Army, or contact me and let me coordinate."
"Understood."
After briefly understanding the situation on the front line, Gudern hung up the communication.
Taking into account the total number of soldiers and civilians in Duanmai's defense alone, it exceeded seven million. This number was also the latest statistics, which really surprised him.
According to the arrangement informed by his father Olek, this group of soldiers and civilians of the Broken Vein Fortress will be kept in his territory as a reserve force for subsequent counterattacks.
At the same time, city residents were summoned to evacuate along the way. Just for people along the safety line, the total number of evacuees is expected to exceed five million. These people will pass through his territory and move to the Xifeng Mountains.
The Xifeng Mountains are the origin of the empire, and the people here are jokingly said to be the real imperial people.
Although the location is slightly remote and the terrain is complex, relying on this, plus the protection of the origin point and the alliance with the Kingdom of Tosa, this place will not fall even if the other five regions fall.
It can be said that as long as the Xifeng Mountains area does not disappear, the empire will not be destroyed.
For example, the independent uprisings of God's Family were successful in other regions, but they encountered many obstacles in the Xifeng Mountain Region.
The loyalty of the people here to the empire can be said to have reached a fanatical level.
Even though they control the higher-ups, the foundation here is that as long as they find actions or orders that threaten the empire, they will directly resist. This has also led to the fact that there are very few independent rebel flags in the West Peak.
As for the transfer work of so many people, when Olek knew that he could have the equipment to distinguish the gods, he gave him the task of a "big pit".
That is to screen all personnel passing through his territory, including the military and senior officials.
Adding up the number of people with the data that has been obtained so far, the number of people has exceeded 12 million. To carry out the screening process for so many people is undoubtedly to find trouble for him.
But it wouldn't work if he didn't accept this screening task. Who would let the other person be his biological father?
After receiving this task, Gudern was also mobilizing the current personnel and starting to make arrangements.
The production of inspection equipment has already entered mass production, and has been derived from multiple models, such as portable one-to-one inspections or large fixed area inspections.
Or it is similar to the kind of access control recognition. As long as you pass through it, you can know whether you are possessed by the gods.
However, with the help of these devices, the task of screening tens of millions of people is still very arduous.
It took him two days to screen Qingyuan City alone. Other cities under direct control were slower and there are still a few people left who have not completed the testing.
This speed seems very slow, but in fact the inspectors are not all located in the same place, but are scattered across hundreds of kilometers of territory.
With millions of people involved, being able to complete seven, seven or eighty-eight tests in such a short period of time is already a very surprising efficiency. It was this result that Olek knew about, and he handed over the screening work to he.
While the rear was nervously preparing to retreat, the fighting on the front line began again.
After a brief rest and reorganization, millions of orcs launched an attack, with no intention of giving the defenders in the Broken Vein Fortress a break.
The assembly beasts formed a mighty formation and slowly advanced towards the Broken Vein City Wall. However, due to the aftermath of the previous extraordinary battle, the ground was soft, slowing down the march.
However, the orcs seemed to have been prepared for this. Among the vanguards, there were countless soldiers carrying various wooden piles and laying them into the soil to enhance the strength of the ground.
Some soldiers even used the thick wooden stakes in their hands to stick in place and build wooden baffle walls. There were even many orcs carrying huge rocks and mixed them behind the baffle walls to build a special barrier.
This behavior of the orcs has never been seen in previous historical battles, but Buniton, the current commander of the Qingyuan Army, could see what these orcs were doing.
"They are taking defensive measures, not only to avoid arrows and crossbows, but also to avoid guns. The orcs are learning faster and faster."
If you want to avoid normal crossbows, you only need to build a crossbow wall. There is no need to add various stones behind to enhance defense capabilities.
Moreover, this time the orcs began to prepare defensive measures outside the range of the firearms, which also gave Buniton a hint of something unusual.
"Let them build. Our task is to hold them back, not to destroy them. It is also a good thing for us to want to compete in the ring."
The military commanders present all stood out from countless battles. After watching the video on demand, they could quickly understand the opponent's intentions and the rhythm of the attack. They were already very familiar with it.
"The opponent wants to fight in the ring. As the defender, we have to give them some small gifts. We can order the artillery battalion to find the target on our own, and then attack after the opponent reaches a suitable distance. A base attack will put a little pressure on the orcs."
As the only unit in the Imperial Army equipped with guns and artillery, the generals of the Third Royal Army directly arranged artillery attacks and could not allow the opponent to advance so easily.
"yes!"
As a directly affiliated unit of the Imperial Army, the artillery battalion of the Third Army only has a cooperative and learning relationship with the Qingyuan Army, and they are independent in combat.
For the first artillery attack, the Qingyuan Army had no plan for the artillery attack for the time being. They planned to wait for the opponent to gather their troops to the city before intercepting the artillery attack. They would use the tactics of division to gradually nibble away the orcs.
As for this 'small-scale' harassment operation, just leave it to the Royal Third Army.
The artillery attack mission was quickly carried out, but the orcs had already been on alert. After being reminded by the extraordinary or even legendary, the orcs below the master level in the artillery attack area all looked for bunkers to escape.
The orcs above the master level opened up their firepower and attacked in the direction of the cannonballs, trying to intercept and detonate them in the air to avoid causing greater damage.
Due to the limited number of artillery pieces of the Third Royal Legion, only forty-four, and after being intercepted by the Orc Master, very few cannonballs could fall into the strike zone.
Moreover, coupled with the built shelter, the effectiveness of the artillery attack was not ideal and did not produce the expected effect.
Before a round of artillery fire was completed, the frontline commander who was observing the battle issued an order to stop the attack.
Such a strike would have very little effect and would be a pure waste of shells.
Faced with this situation, Buniton's mind was also thinking rapidly about how to crack the orcs' defensive countermeasures.
The orcs' learning speed in warfare is astonishing. Although they have not yet fought in a battle, they have already learned and thought of ways to deal with artillery just from the battle against the undead.
From the moment they entered the fifteen-kilometer range, the orcs had been laying various roads and explosion-proof shelters along the way.
Although the progress was very slow, the weak impact of the artillery attack just now made them understand that this method was correct, so they paid more attention to building explosion-proof shelter points.
The distance of fifteen kilometers would not take more than twenty minutes at the orcs' wartime speed.
But now, after dragging for more than three hours, we finally entered the one kilometer range.
Once here, the orcs' laying speed stopped and they reorganized their team to prepare for the final sprint attack.
With the defensive height of the Broken Vein Fortress and weapons such as arrow and ballista carts, they will also be within its attack range when entering the final stage.
Therefore, the paving of the last section of the road was destined to be uneventful, so the orcs decided to attack while advancing at the same time, ensuring that even if they retreated, they would still have cover and protection.
Millions of orcs formed a neat offensive formation under the city, and countless crossbowmen and basic shamans were doing the final mobilization and encouragement.
The chilling atmosphere on the battlefield made people feel breathless. Looking at the orc warriors who were ready to go, the orc legend also mobilized his spiritual power and gave instructions to the soldiers.
"attack!"
There was no encouragement, no mission statement, just two simple words, and countless orcs were mobilized in an instant.
The shock caused by the running of millions of orcs can be vaguely felt even on the broken vein city wall that has been specially strengthened and blessed.
"Prepare for long-distance attack with heavy weapons! Release!"
On top of the city, countless trebuchets and cannon crossbows were ordered to release their own attack methods at the same time.
Countless thick stone balls roared into the orc array, and the sharp arrows of the crossbow, which was more than three meters thick and as thick as an arm, slashed through the air, making a harsh scream and penetrating the orc array defense line.
Even conventional heavy weapon attacks can still cause a lot of trouble to the orcs.
The first round of attacks ended, and what followed was countless arrow feathers forming a black mass in the air, falling from the sky into the orcs like countless raindrops.
In the last kilometer of the attack, the orcs must be prepared to be beaten throughout the entire attack.
However, this beating was not just a beating. The orcs also took countermeasures to avoid further casualties.
Seeing that the orcs were about to enter the best rifle attack range, the Third Army and the Qingyuan Army were ready to open fire.
But suddenly, a strange energy spread out from the orc army. The elemental aura that was still very strong at this moment seemed to have encountered a natural enemy and disappeared in an instant.
Within several kilometers of the entire Broken Vein Fortress, there was no elemental power at this moment.
Countless pieces of equipment that rely on elemental energy to be driven stopped working at this moment.
The weapons in the hands of the Qingyuan Army soldiers now turned into fire sticks, and even the communication equipment was offline again.
The sudden situation caught all the soldiers off guard, and some of the mages in the watchtower looked ugly at the moment.
"The Demonic Forbidden Formation...how could the orcs use this?"
"Damn it, I should have thought of it a long time ago. The orcs are so afraid of these weapons that even the demon-forbidden formation has come out..."
Buniton only knew a little bit about the name of the Forbidden Demon Formation, but he did not expect that at this critical moment, the other party would actually use this move, allowing the weapons of the Qingyuan Army and the Third Army on the front line to be used at this moment. It turns into scrap metal and cannot be used.
"Commander! Notify the baggage team to pull up the spare weapons, issue flags, and the members equipped with magic weapons will leave the combat position and go to collect the spare weapons. The others will continue to stay in position and attack on their own!"
Buniton reacted quickly. After learning that the weapon could not be used, he immediately called for the messenger and pulled up the reserve gunpowder weapons.
The Qingyuan Army has two sets of weapons, one set of magic weapons and one set of gunpowder weapons. However, the theme is still based on magic weapons. The gunpowder weapons are less equipped and are generally used as backup weapons.
Nowadays, the sudden formation of forbidden magic has made the importance of gunpowder weapons become so important for the first time.
The trucks at the top of the city started up again after a brief stall. Each set of trucks had dual power systems.
Even if the magic engine is paralyzed, the normal mechanical engine behind it can still operate at a minimum.
Although the performance is definitely not as good as the magic engine, as long as it can move, it is not a piece of scrap metal.
Looking at the slightly panicked situation on the battlefield, Buniton felt a little lucky. Fortunately, Master Gooden had always emphasized the importance of redundancy. Even in such a thousand-mile march, each battalion's weapons and equipment were very complete.
Even if a small amount of firearms equipment is reinstalled, it is enough to arm half a battalion for counterattack.
The five battalions, after being reorganized and prepared, were still able to collect firearms and equipment for 3,000 people. Excluding special military occupations, the firearms of more than 3,000 people in the five battalions can be regarded as restoring the attack methods of the main combat soldiers.
The sudden sound of gunfire caused the attacking orcs to suddenly pause. Although the frequency of the dense metal storm was not as fierce as that of magic weapons, its intensity did not weaken at all.
Under the powerful fire suppression, the orcs' attack also paid a heavy price.
At the same time, those artillery pieces that did not rely on magic were fully prepared at this time and began to counterattack.
Faced with this situation, the orc commander's face was not good-looking. Except for magic weapons, they could not analyze the principle of this kind of weapon that could still explode with powerful power.
Although it was similar to the attack of a magic weapon, they couldn't imitate it no matter how hard they tried to imitate it.
I thought that after disabling magic power, this army would be completely destroyed, but I didn't expect that the other party had something hidden.
In such an asymmetric war, the losses for the orcs will only increase. However, the only good news at the moment is that tens of thousands of the Imperial Third Army have withdrawn from the battle order.
This is good news for the orcs...
