Volume 5: Protracted War Chapter 120: Divide and Converge Attack (2)
After careful consideration, I found Xin Bi Tian Gao and decided to take him and Yue Guang Guang and others to act together to increase the chances of success of this operation. Although Xin Bi Tian Gao, the strongest among them, has only subdued more than a thousand Terror Knights at most, and Hercules and others are mostly at the level of a few hundred riders, and almost all of them are the lowest level Terror Giant Bear Knights, unable to take charge of a situation alone, but when several people unite, they are also a considerable force. Qiu Shui Chang Tian, Gui Husband, Tian Xing and other undead wizards are stronger, but they don't have a deep friendship with each other. There are only two big bosses, and I can't give them enough benefits to persuade them to join. In comparison, Xin Bi Tian Gao and others are easy to use, at least they should not have the intention to snatch the fruits of victory from me. Moreover, normal communication is impossible in the "Dead Space", but with the "Corpse Crown", I can communicate with Xin Bi Tian Gao over a long distance, and let him participate in the attack on one of the flanks, which can not only enhance strength, but also pass on intelligence to help me control the situation over there.
Of course, the two-wing strategy was implemented. The other side could not be abandoned. The Moonlight Box and Guopo Shanhe, who belonged to the Tongxin League, were placed to participate in the attack. They each had more than 2,000 Terror Knights, and their overall strength was about the same as that of Tongxin Bitiangao. In order to facilitate communication, I sacrificed the fourth corpse king Luha and let the Moonlight Box kill it and obtain its "corpse crown". Anyway, as my strength grew, the enemies I faced became stronger and stronger, and the power of the "mental attack" launched by linking the four corpse kings became weaker and weaker. In addition, they were inconvenient to move and quite troublesome to use. It almost became a "chicken rib" ability. It would be better to give the "corpse crown" to other undead wizards to make friends, so that it would be convenient to call on them for help when something happened.
It is said that the five Skeleton Archer Clan's Bone Kings have been replaced by players, and the royal equipment has also been owned by players. If I hadn't acted early, unified the zombie clan, and subdued the other three corpse kings, other undead wizards would not have intervened for my sake, and would never have allowed these NPC monsters to be free and easy wearing powerful equipment such as the "Corpse Crown" - which increases the mental power limit by 50% to 100% in the "Dead Space", which is equivalent to the standard of a holy weapon in the human world. At this stage, it is definitely a rare item, and few undead wizards will not be tempted. Speaking of it, I still "occupied" a few pieces of equipment that are not of much value to me. Someone has already made suggestions to the Council, and Long Xing Tianxia has also found me to talk tactfully. As a famous and powerful "World's No. 1 Wizard", I hope that I can loosen my grip and take care of the "backward" so as not to affect unity, so that I have to pay attention to this issue and prepare to gradually give up some of my interests to calm the "public anger."
Although there is a certain danger for Xin Bi Tian Gao, Yue Guang Guang, Moonlight Treasure Box and Guo Po Shan He to participate in this operation, my Terror Knight Legion will be the main force, and they will just follow and help. If the "Undead War" can be won, they should be able to earn a lot of qualification points, which will be of great help in their promotion to the seventh-level profession. In addition, they have a relationship and friendship with each other, and the ones to be killed are the big bosses of two major races, so they may get other additional benefits. Naturally, they agreed to help with all their efforts and work together with me to deal with the alliance of Graveson and Douglas. Players' brains are naturally better than NPC monsters, and they can handle problems on their own, which should increase their chances of winning.
Everything was planned well. Finally, we received the notification from Bat Demon Dicka that he was about to start the action. We divided our troops into three groups and directly rushed into the territory of the corpse witches. According to the information provided by Dicka, the selected place of entry was located in the territory of other witch kings, so as not to directly inform Graveson and avoid being aware of our raid too early. According to the distance and the speed of the Terror Knights, it would take at least six hours to reach the designated attack area. In addition, we would be constantly intercepted by the corpse witch group on the way, which might delay us for several hours. Fortunately, the "Undead War" is a special mode. Unless the war is over or there are force majeure factors, it is not restricted by the resurrection and online time. Otherwise, if we suddenly leave at the critical moment of the battle, it would really cost lives.
The three armies advanced in unison, keeping a predetermined distance from each other, echoing each other from afar, and launched a frenzied killing. Wherever they passed, they destroyed the enemy's resistance with a crushing force. The army did not stop and continued to charge forward, sending out small forces to the left and right wings and cruising nearby, trying their best to avoid being scattered corpse wizards and organize them, so as to reduce the loss of personnel caused by attacks from the flanks during the march of the army.
With our speed and scale, and the reconnaissance of the battlefield situation by Shaman, the couple of Bloodbat, Xiaobai, and the fifty-three Ghost Kings, I was able to have a clear understanding of the distribution of the surrounding corpse wizards. The selected attack route avoided the area where the corpse wizards were too dense. The corpse wizards without unified command could not organize any resistance at all. Each army was an assault of more than 10,000 horror knights, which was definitely not something that those hundreds or thousands of scattered corpse wizards could resist. They were quickly dispersed and defeated, and it did not delay too much time. Of course, after all, we were in the enemy's territory, and it can be said that there were corpse wizards everywhere. We could only reduce them, but could not avoid conflicts. Their stubborn resistance also brought us some losses. There were constantly horror knights killed under the attack of the flying "death cloud bombs". The deeper we went into the territory of the corpse wizards, the more fierce the attacks we suffered. Every step forward had to pay the price of blood.
According to the plan, the main attack was carried out by the middle route led by me. The two wings would not directly participate in the siege of the Graveson and Douglas coalition forces for the time being, but would advance in a roundabout way. The left wing, which was more ambitious than the sky, would be responsible for blocking the retreat of the fourth wizard king Graveson, while the right wing of the Moonlight Box would cut off the blood lich Douglas's way back to the "Blood Pool", forming a double-team to ensure that the two of them had no way to escape. After continuous charging, the middle route army under my command finally approached the meeting place of Graveson and Douglas. The two of them should have noticed it. After all, they were old guys who had experienced many battles and must have been prepared for the battle. They would not be so easily defeated by me.
Sure enough, Graveson's army of corpse witches was densely packed and neatly arranged in the distance, waiting in full battle array. According to the reconnaissance from high altitude, the other side has set up five lines of defense, each of which is about 500 meters apart. It seems to be to effectively prevent the attack of the Terror Knights, and the formation is similar to the last time they plotted against me. With the help of the army of corpse witches for cover, Graveson and Douglas have also separated, each retreating to the rear under the close protection of the elite guards, intending to escape back to their own nests.
