Lord of the Misty World

Chapter 444 Pre-war Preparations
In the first stage of the campaign, the Qinghe Kingdom's three-way army, the left army advanced westward, the right army advanced eastward, and the central army advanced forward.

Although there are countless monsters in front of them, the wolf totem army and the knight army are also advancing at a speed of more than ten kilometers per day.

Therefore, during this period of time, the wolf totem army and the knight army advanced two hundred kilometers forward like a drawn sword.

At this time, in the second stage, the other legions have just advanced northward, and the middle army and the [-] kilometers deep into the grassland are completely a prominent goal, which has aroused the attention of the chiefs of the big tribes among the monsters and the dragons and beasts in various regions. Notice.

Of course, when the Qinghe Kingdom was making plans, it also had the purpose of using the Central Route Army as a bait to see how many monsters could attract the attention of this outstanding battle.

But to Di Feng's surprise, there was no problem with Qinghe Kingdom's battle plan. What was problematic was the estimation of the number of monster groups on the grassland.

Di Feng and the top management of the Qinghe Kingdom thought that they had estimated the number of monsters as much as possible.But no one could have imagined that in just two or three years, there were already an unimaginable number of monsters on this grassland.

At this time, the 200 million monster army gathered together, Di Feng can be sure that this is not the main force of the monster army.It's just the recent concentration of troops in these areas.

The real main force of these monsters will be in the orc territory in the north. In that area, it was captured by the monster army earlier, so there is more time to develop and more monsters will be hoarded.

"That is to say, it is just right to start the war now." Looking at so many monsters, Di Feng felt that he had to go to the front line himself. insurance.

"If one year later, these monsters completely defeat the Chiwu Royal Court and the barbarians, then the Qinghe Kingdom will have to rely on the defense of the Changyuan Mountains. At that time, there will probably be a mighty attack by tens of millions or even more monster legions. "

"However, if the 200 million monster legions are all wiped out, the battle in the next period of time will probably become much easier."

This time on the front line, Di Feng brought special forces such as the Mages Battalion directly under the Lord's Mansion, the Chocobo Cavalry Regiment, the Raptor Dragoon Battalion, the Imperial Guard Battalion, the Ninja Brigade, and the Warrior Brigade directly under Di Feng.

It can be said that these troops directly under the Lord's Mansion are all Di Feng's imperial guards, and they are the most elite troops in the Qinghe Kingdom, even the troops directly under the field legions are not close.

Di Feng, a dark-gold-level powerhouse, together with these directly subordinate troops, served as a reserve team. In case the frontline legions couldn't stand it, then it was time for Di Feng to make a move.

Except for the mechanized group of more than 7 people of the Wolf Totem Legion and the cavalry group of 3 people of the Knights Legion, the follow-up garrison troops are also continuously going to the front line for support.

Although these garrison troops do not have heavy weapons, they are not bad for light tanks, light off-road armored vehicles, and small-caliber self-propelled artillery. It is no problem to assist the field army in combat.

At this time, according to the mobilization of the staff, the garrison is arriving rapidly, and 5 people have already arrived at the front line.And other garrison troops are also arriving in regiments.

The garrison tasks in the rear were handed over to the guard troops who had been conscripted and arrived. These were originally responsible for guarding tasks in various places. Troops without armored units took over the tasks of the garrison corps and began to garrison the place.

200 million monster legions, even though most of them are ordinary monster goblins, but the number is there, and there are also a large number of elite monster legions, as well as various ferocious dragon beasts, so the frontline legion has to be careful.

In this battle, because there were too many monsters, it was impossible for the Qinghe Kingdom to dye their mechanized divisions with only tens of thousands of people and charge straight at the monster army.

Therefore, this returns to the traditional positional defense operations of the Qinghe Kingdom.At this time, because the monster army is only a hundred kilometers away from the position of the wolf totem army, about five hours later, the vanguard of the monsters here will arrive.

Five hours is the time to deploy the position. At the front, the three mechanized divisions of Wolf Totem lined up, forming a [-]-kilometer defense line with the infantry.

The entire defense line should be as long as possible to block all monsters.The follow-up 3 garrison troops and [-] knight corps all carried out trench digging and defense line deployment tasks.

A large number of mines were deployed in front of the position. This time, it can be said that all the mines of the entire field army were buried in front of the position.

Afterwards, the barbed wire was pulled up, the temporary steel bunkers were quickly built, and the engineering mages opened them up, creating double-layer sentry towers with a one-meter-back stone wall.

There is also an anti-aircraft machine gun on the top of the double layer. Because of the news this time, the monster army has flying monsters like the Harpy, and the frontline troops must also ensure air defense.

In addition, the sniper positions, mortar positions, light infantry artillery positions, and heavy artillery positions behind the front line are arranged in stages to ensure firepower strikes.

In this war, because of Di Feng's deployment, the rear engineering team advanced with the frontline troops, and every step forward, the eight-lane main road had to be repaired.

Therefore, the material resources from the rear were continuously transported to the front line, and quickly distributed to every soldier through the various regiments.

Because of the huge number of monsters, each soldier is issued with double copies of weapons, ammunition, food and medicine.In addition, trenches and bunkers were built piece by piece of rune steel plates to ensure that even extraordinary arrows could guarantee the safety of soldiers.

In one position, soldiers with bronze ranks from each faction at this time quickly dug the soil with engineering shovels.

With the strength of the soldiers, and the ground here is flat, there are no rocks or anything. It only takes a moment to dig a half-person-high trench. The projects of multiple soldiers are connected to form a connected trench.

The excavated soil was piled up in front, forming a slope, so good for a soldier to lie there.

I watched myself erecting machine guns and placing ammunition boxes without any problems.At this time, while the soldier was busy, a large truck arrived behind the trench.

The truck driver yelled at the infantry squad digging the trench.

"Soldiers, your protective steel plates are here, move them quickly."

"okay."

Hearing the sound, the infantry team, which was digging and repairing the trench, stopped working and greeted the truck driver. The whole team, led by the team leader, began to move these modular protective steel plates.

All the armor plates were removed, the trucks left, and the infantry squad continued to build the trenches.The rune steel plate just shipped, these soldiers have been trained until how to install it.

First of all, the soldiers found two steel plates with shooting holes and placed them in front of the trench. Between the two steel plates, there were two half-rune steel plates with buckles between the steel plates. Very strong.

Subsequently, on both sides of the two shooting hole steel plates, install two half steel plates again.At the back of the trench, opposite the steel plate for the shooting hole, two steel plates are erected, and a steel plate is placed horizontally on top of the two steel plates, and a simple protective bunker is built.

And such a steel plate is three meters long and wide. The steel plate itself is not thick, relying on the strength of the alloy and strengthening runes to ensure the defense of the steel plate, and adding a weight-reducing rune inside, reducing the weight of the steel plate by half.

Moreover, there are no ordinary soldiers in the Qinghe Kingdom's army, and a three-meter-long and wide steel plate can be easily lifted by two people.

Even for construction, only four people are needed to lift it up.The length of the battle line that this team is responsible for is 30 meters, and ten steel plates can cover the entire defense line.

Of course, due to the limited number of steel plates, such a team only has two steel plate bunkers and seven protective steel plates.As for the unprotected area, a [-]-degree hole was dug, and a steel plate was covered on the ground above the hole to ensure that no arrows would penetrate the soil and hit the hiding soldiers.

After the trenches were dug and the steel plates were built, the team sorted and visited the weapons and ammunition sent down from above.Ammunition boxes, explosives, grenades, bullets.

There are also magazines full of bullets, a bazooka and ten rockets equipped by the team.Most of the various weapons and ammunition are placed on the trenches.

The other part is put together with food, fresh water and medicine in the dug hole as a reserve.

While the infantry squad was busy, before the trenches, the legion was directly under the engineer regiment and the barbed wire was pulled up. The layers of barbed wire were like an obstacle, preventing the coming monster legion from rushing into the position.

In the area before the barbed wire fence, mine positions have also been deployed.In the team, the machine gunner assumed the machine gun, looked around, looked at the fortified and murderous position ahead, and sighed.

"With such a defense, these monsters will not be opponents."

At this time, the squadron leader came with a combat team in the trench that the infantry squad was in charge of.Seeing the squadron leader approaching, the squad leader immediately went up to meet him and asked.

"Squadron leader, our position has almost been built. Squadron leader, what instructions do you have for this visit?"

Looking across the team's position, the squadron leader nodded in satisfaction.

"Your positions are well built, very standard. This time I came here according to the order of the superior. The squadron is directly under the fire squad and assigned to the infantry squads.

This is the machine gun team of the fire team, and it is temporarily under your command now, so we must guard our positions. "

"Yes." Seeing that his team got a machine gun team, this means that his team's firepower has increased, and the next battle is more assured.

"Okay." The squadron leader stretched out his hand and patted the small leader's shoulder, encouraging him. "Stay safe."

"Yes."

The squadron leader still has tasks. The squadron's fire support team has ten people, divided into a three-man heavy machine gun team, a two-man light machine gun team, a three-man flat-fire gun team, and a sniper team.

And the squadron is really four combat squads, and each squad is assigned to a different firepower group.

After the squadron leader left, the squad leader and the light machine gun team introduced themselves and said to the machine gunner.

"We have two machine gun bunkers in our position, and you will be responsible for firepower strikes at that design position."

After arranging this firepower team, the team leader continued to improve the trenches that were almost the same, and prepared more grenades, pressed more magazines, and prepared explosive kits just in case.
