Invincible Chapter 618
It was the morning of the fourth day after the night battle when the copper puppet battle group left Beiliu Castle.
Windsor did not wait in the King City of Lordaeron, but rushed to Beiliu Castle on the day he received the invitation letter. Familiar with this combat force.
Kane took Windsor around in a circle, his focus was on the guidance of technical precautions and the handover of the officer corps.
You know, the officers of the copper puppet are all from the Dark Knights. These souls who occupied the body of the defectors of the Northrend Northern Expedition Army through the contract are all elites selected by Kane from the ancient wandering souls. They are all confident and proud, and they respect him as a contractor, but Not so for Windsor, the airborne commander.
Kane also spoke very clearly. He directly stated in front of Windsor and these officers that the Scourge they were about to face was a special force that had never been seen in history.
This "never before in history", but it includes the Burning Legion.
The particularity of Azeroth and the particularity of the situation gave birth to such a force. It is not only a minion of the Burning Legion, but also has the ability of self-development, self-creation, and integration.
As for the combat strength of the Scourge, people seem to have a good idea of how many times they have confronted each other, especially the night battle that happened not long ago.
But Kane pointed out that if you fight with this kind of thinking, you will suffer a loss. The attack on Garin City, the erosion of the Holy Light Monastery and the projection of combat power all prove that the Scourge not only has superb technology, but also has unknown allies and special methods. , any contempt, is a kind of stupidity.
"The times are rolling forward, civilization is constantly improving, and the profession of warfare is also constantly developing and improving. You each have strengths worth learning from each other, and your enemy can also be your teacher."
"Everyone, I have very high expectations for you. I hope that each of you has extraordinary capacity and enough space to fill in more high-value information and knowledge. In this way, you can control more powerful power, Someday in the future, go out of Azeroth, beat the Burning Legion with the worlds as the stage, and see the magic and magnificence of a wider space."
"So, it's just a small step in front of you. If you can't even do this well, if you can't protect yourself, if you can't make progress, if you can't win, what will you use to conquer the sea of stars?"
Windsor looked at the dark knights in surprise, and saw that all of these people raised their chins slightly, with solemn expressions, but there was light jumping in their eyes. Obviously, they listened to Kane's words, and only then did they have such a restrained but leaked emotional expression.
To be honest, Windsor is a little confused,
In other words, Kane's words made him unable to resonate. It was very inspirational, but it seemed a bit too ambitious. How could he reach the level of the stars, the sea, the heavens and the world?
Now the human category is said to dominate Azeroth, even if they live in the Eastern Continent, they are beaten to defend the war, talking about conquering the universe, this is too ambitious.
But he didn't know that the situation of these people was very special. They had observed, felt, and thought for too long in the state of soul. But those who have not been dead for a long time are mostly supported by some kind of belief.
If this kind of belief is love and hatred, then according to the environmental characteristics of Azeroth, it will basically become a stream of ghosts and evil spirits. Those who can maintain self-awareness and clearness for a long time are basically inseparable from the four words "Zhongzheng Peace". To put it bluntly, it is open-minded, tolerant, with lofty ideals and not extreme.
This kind of will, after a long period of suffering, has the opportunity to go back to the previous goal, so it is natural to seize it, and I am not interested in spending energy on some trivial matters.
When Kane concluded the contract with them, he pointed out: You have ideals and beautiful visions, but there is no ladder leading to them. You can't see it, and you can't make it. And these, I can help you, but in turn, you have to help me, and at the same time help yourself, climb up step by step.
These dark knights not only have lofty aspirations, but also have a far more understanding of death than ordinary people. They know very well that death is not the end, especially after signing a contract with Kane, they have special powers to protect their souls.
But in turn, they also have to prove their worth.
Proof needs a stage.
Even this time.
To be honest, they are more willing to produce leaders from among their own people. After all, they usually study and train together, and they already have a certain understanding and tacit understanding with each other. Being run by an old-school human boss, with the old-fashioned way of fighting in the future, made them uncomfortable.
But they knew that Kane's arrangement generally had deep meaning. So even if Kane didn't back up Windsor's platform, they didn't plan to stab, but were going to leave the field first.
There are still many reasons for Kane to do so.
One of them is to pick yourself out and do something more important.
Another reason is that in the absence of perfect logistical support, he is unwilling to expose the modern military model to the enemy prematurely.
The previous night battles were not a small test, and they did not fully display the strength of the modern army.
If you always fight this kind of half-handed battle, it won't take long for the enemy to figure out his way. He felt that instead of using half-baked tricks to put the opponent on guard, it would be better not to use them, and when he was ready, one blow would work.
In fact, the core of this kind of thinking is to have a strong awareness of the protection of one's own key information. It's just that the opponent never knows what his own three-axe is, and it's only sharp when he cuts it.
As far as campaigns are concerned, annihilation battles are the most effective means of keeping secrets. Even if an individual escapes, the key information cannot be effectively brought to the individuals in the new team, and the war is still abused.
But if there are more battles like night battles, officers and soldiers of the Scourge Legion will be trained, and the new battle group with them as the backbone will be more calm in dealing with them.
Therefore, Kane is not interested in letting his immature modernized troops to help the Scourge with adaptive combat training.
But this power is not suitable for it. At the beginning of the design of the copper puppet, it was positioned to attack, not defend. It is definitely a waste to let them patrol the city every day, waiting for the enemy to come to the door.
Waste itself is shameful. At the beginning, these big appetite kings were sealed up because of the high consumption. Now that the logistics are tight and the front line is tight, they are here to guard the city wall. This kind of waste Kane cannot bear.
And in his hands, there is no commander like Windsor who can stand alone.
The reason is that the system establishment time is too short.
His subordinates are all excellent, and the future growth is worth looking forward to, but the century-old tree man, at least for now, whether it is the sacred temple or the dark knight, has its own problems, and there is no general he has seen. So, he got a bunch of young generals to serve as officers for Windsor.
Windsor was a bare-bones commander before, and he was short of everything, which seemed good to Kane. If Windsor also brought a group of officers, then there would inevitably be competition and friction with the Dark Knights.
These problems are nothing to him, and they are even compulsory courses that every commander must face.
The problem is that there is no time for training soldiers, but basically they must be able to be pulled to the front line to fight. Therefore, if the difficulty can not be increased artificially, it will not increase. Training also depends on time, it will take a long time in the future.
Apart from feeling that Kane's words were a bit hypocritical, Windsor was super satisfied in other aspects.
Kane is not the kind of boss who is instigating or clingy, and when he confesses what needs to be explained, he just throws his hands away.
Wen De Sole became the supreme leader, and suddenly felt a lot more alive.
The first thing he did was to check his family property carefully.
During the process, he was shocked and speechless. In the end, he came to a conclusion that the entire strength of the Stormwind Kingdom could not compete with this awesome combat power.
Corresponding to the high price is the explosively powerful combat power and terrifying defense power. Windsor couldn't think of how to defeat such an enemy if he encountered such an enemy.
The single body is so strong that it can be called a victory. It is really unimaginable what kind of terrifying strength 3000 copper puppets have.
After seeing the small details and appreciating the power of the copper puppets, Windsor also has a certain understanding of the toughness of the Scourge.
Windsor felt that, except for the newly famous Knights Templar of the World's No. 1 Cavalry, any other combat power would definitely not be able to withstand the swarms of copper puppets.
The Scourge not only resisted, but also resisted for several hours. Although those abominations were basically finished, Windsor would say that it was a glorious defeat. The only mistake the Scourge made was choosing the wrong opponent.
Of course, he didn't tell anyone about such an inflated word. On the contrary, when he communicated with his new subordinates, he asked humbly what this army was afraid of.
As a result, the Dark Knights listed a bunch and gave examples.
Generally speaking, there is no invincible army, especially the lack of coordination and a single unit, which is easy to be restrained.
Copper puppets also have this problem, but if you want to restrain them, you must first have sufficient strength. This is like shooting heavy cavalry with a scorpion crossbow.
Windsor has also seen some heavy blows suffered by the copper puppets in the night battle. The giant crossbow bolts with the thickness of the arms are thicker than ordinary spears and weigh more than 100 catties. The penetrating power is really strong. The copper puppets The puppet's heavy armor is not only thick, but also has an energy protection layer, which can still be broken.
He also visited some other displays of the Scourge's tools.
The Volunteer Army sounds like a patchwork force, but it is actually more professional than any force in this era. They have many fine traditions and habits, including collecting information on the enemy.
In that night battle, although the volunteers retreated on their own initiative, the collection of relevant information was not delayed. Therefore, Windsor has seen all kinds of plague bombs, evil energy corrosive toxins, etc.
Combining this information and recalling what Kane said before, I feel a lot. Of course, the first half is about not underestimating your opponent with pride.
The Scourge is really very strong, with vicious and sharp methods, and good at destroying. Wen Desol secretly weighed, and found that his homeland, the Kingdom of Stormwind, has no power that can match it.
Such a conclusion made this veteran who had experienced two human-animal wars break out in a cold sweat. At the same time, he made up his mind that he must make good use of this combat power in his hand to wipe out the remaining forces of the Scourge Legion as much as possible.
As a result, the troops received a large number of letters before leaving Beiliu Fort.
Some greeted earnestly, some requested to be garrisoned, some asked about the situation, some introduced assistants, and some wanted to marry... It gave Windsor the feeling that he has really flourished, and he can't be clean in the mountains.
In the face of all kinds of chaos, Windsor still showed outstanding professionalism. In less than three days, he successfully controlled this combat force, and then marched towards Tirisfal.
Kane, who has never shown his face, also came to see him off rarely, but he did not alarm the people below, but stood on the newly completed tower of Beiliu Castle, overlooking the battle group that was marching away.
The lights and shadows around him were virtual and solid, revealing Veragosa, "Your Highness, everything is ready."
Kane nodded, "Okay, this bait is delicious and fat, and then we'll see if the Lich King is willing to gamble."
What are you betting on?
Naturally, it is a bet that Kane does not have qualified combat power in his hands to protect this single arm but lacks the powerful combat power protected by other arms.
Once the Lich King thinks that way, he will probably send out targeted troops to attack the copper puppet battle group.
For Kane, it is still secondary to counter-calculate the opponent's raid force, and information understanding is the main thing.
He wanted to know if the Lich King really had the prophetic advantage, and if the answer was yes, then he wanted to know to what extent.
To put it bluntly, how much does the Lich King know about the cards in his hand... ()
