Chapter 757 Ultra-Modern Line of Defense

The Odin Grand Canyon where the northern fortress is located is just the biggest gap between the Odin Grassland and the Andes Mountains, but it is not the only one. There is no shortage of various mountain trails, but it is not suitable for large-scale marches.

In the past, Sean didn't pay much attention to these small gaps. That's because the development focus of the Eternal Night Army in the Andes Mountains was around the Jacob River Basin and the Andes Inland Lake.

Except for a very small number of stubborn mountain people, those who could migrate were all migrated away.

After the re-flow of the Jacob River, the Yong Ye army leader can be regarded as a vast land with a sparse population. Concentrating the population is not only convenient for management, but also able to concentrate strength and develop production.

Even if those Odin orcs entered the Andes Mountains through those small gaps, most of them would retreat on their own after finding no suitable looting targets.

The Odin orcs have no shortage of territory, and the possibility of changing their living habits and settling in the mountains is very slim, and they are more likely to plunder wealth.

When it is found that it is unprofitable, naturally it will not come again.

Occasionally there are people who try to settle here, but they just deliver food to the leaders of the Yong Ye Army, or kill or surrender, and eventually become part of their population.

But Narentoya's undead empire is different.

Wherever they go, they bring death and destruction, whether they intend to or not.

The tribe headed by Prince Yiribis is a clear proof. At the beginning, they had dreamed of establishing a country where the living and the dead coexisted with Narentoya, mutual benefit and common development.

This country did not last for two years at all, and it came to an end with the death of a large number of living people.

Those undead who broke life and death are out-and-out law breakers. When they gather in large numbers, the breath of death they carry can directly change the surrounding environment from the level of law, making it no longer suitable for living people. Survive.

If a living person is in that environment for a long time, there are only two possibilities, either they die, the corpse is manipulated by them, or they become one of them.

For them, the Eternal Night Army leader will naturally guard against them, preventing them from infiltrating on a small scale, using biological and chemical weapons such as viruses, and causing mass destruction to their citizens.

This is not the conjecture of the Yong Ye army leader, but their special operations force, which has secretly wiped out a large number of fanatical undead advance troops.

Those fanatical undead advance troops are a group of out-and-out religious lunatics.

Fanatical belief in the night and the goddess of winter has filled their souls with fire.

They think that they are the chosen ones, the pioneers, and the meaning of existence is to transform this land according to the will of the goddess of the night and winter.

One day, the goddesses of night and winter will use their supreme divine power to open the Kingdom of God and make this land a part of the Kingdom of God, where they will be reborn and achieve eternal life in the true sense.

Of course, this information did not come from the mouths of those fanatical undead vanguards.

Back then they became undead because they were afraid of death.

Fanatical faith, but let them overcome the fear of death.

When they defeated the last fear, they were fearless, how could they leak the information of their gods?

But in Xiao En's hands, there is no need for them to speak in person.

It is more convenient to purify their soul fire with rule runes and read their memories directly.

It can not only ensure the accuracy of the intelligence, but also generate extra income from the power of law.

The advance army of fanatical undead not only aimed at the Eternal Night Army Leader, but also aimed at the Byron Alliance.

They have been there for the past four years, exploiting people's fear of death and secretly developing cult members.

It's just not very effective.

There is already a Holy See here.

By doing this, the Undead Empire is tantamount to sharing the pie of the Holy See.

This is touching their reverse scales.

Not to mention, their teachings themselves are against the nature of human existence.

Being labeled as a cultist by the Holy See and spared no effort to hunt down and kill him has naturally become a matter of course.

Compared with the broken line of defense guarded by the Strachey family, the northern line of defense led by the Yongye army is shorter.

To the west of the northern fortress lies Sanset Peak, the roof of the world. The mountain here is so high and dangerous that even the undead of the undead empire can hardly climb over it. A few watchtowers here are enough. up.

The northern defense line is mainly in the east of the northern fortress, adjacent to the Kegel grassland and the Balsin grassland, and extends to the junction of the Kentana ice sheet.

In order to make full use of the mountain, in many areas, the leader of the Yongye Army set aside at least 20 to 30 kilometers, and as many as hundreds of kilometers as a defensive buffer. This is equivalent to losing tens of thousands of square kilometers in vain. Territory out.

The biggest advantage of this is that the defense line of the northern fortress has changed from 520 kilometers to 350 kilometers.

The number of defensive gaps that need to be built for small and medium fortresses has been reduced from 83 to 52, and the number of soldiers that need to be stationed has naturally also decreased.

war.

Especially when two forces are involved, and millions of lives and deaths are recorded.

The gains and losses of a city and a place are somewhat irrelevant.

As long as you can win the final victory, no matter how much you lose, you can regain it.

If they had made great strides at the beginning, but defeated the last battle, all previous victories would be false.

After so many years of tempering, the ruling class of the Yongye army has already deeply embedded the truth.

The northern line of defense created by the leader of the Yongye army is not the same as the Duanmai line of defense.

Either on the surface or in the dark.

On the bright side.

A line of defense fort built on the mountain is a must.

Not to mention artillery.

The Firearms Bureau led by the Yongye Army is directly under the arsenal. With sufficient raw materials, the number of artillery produced at full capacity is not just a Jiangmen Port and a fleet of explorers.

The real big head was transported to the northern defense line and to the major armies.

However, the artillery is not the main force of the undead army defending the undead empire, but the round pillars standing on the city wall.

These circular pillars are nothing else.

It was the medical tower that was researched by the Yongye army leader and planned to be used to treat the undead virus.

It's just the countermeasure of the laws of the plane, which greatly reduces the threat of the undead virus. The plan died halfway, and the medical tower lost its usefulness.

But the painstaking effort spent at the beginning was not wasted.

According to the countermeasures against the undead according to the laws of the plane, Xiao En adjusted the magic circuits of the medical towers, turning them from life-saving equipment into lethal weapons specifically targeting undead.

This kind of tower has a brand new name - purification tower.

Although the purification tower is like sunlight, it is difficult to directly kill those undead spirits, but it can greatly weaken them.

In addition, the purification tower also has a unique function - early warning.

Usually they operate at low power consumption, emit soft light, and can even be used as street lights at night.

But once undead spirits enter its enveloping range, it will immediately emit fiery rays to burn them.

Since the establishment of the purification tower defense line, the infiltration of the undead empire's fanatical undead advance army into the Eternal Night Army has been greatly reduced.

The real strength of the Yong Ye army leading the northern defense line is their dark line.

Most people thought that the northern fortress of the magic tractor led by the Yongye Army was the terminal, but it was not.

The northern fortress is just a transit point, and it is connected to another line, the main body of which is located directly below the northern fortress.

In other words, the northern line of defense led by the Yong Ye army was built on the basis of this magic tractor subway.

The benefits, needless to say.

The northern fortress is a whole.

The arrival of the magic subway means that the energy transmission pipeline has arrived, and they have entered the network state. Facilities such as the purification tower that need to use magical energy to supply energy are all in the network state.

Once there is an abnormality, the general control department located in the consciousness space of the northern fortress will monitor it immediately, including the occurrence of disconnection, and the general control department will also notify the nearest checkpoint to send people to check the situation as soon as possible.

Not to mention the convenience of material transportation.

Even if it is from Brissang to transport troops and military supplies, it will not take a day before and after.

And since I have the earth-digging artifact, the earth-digging purple worm.

The entire Yong Ye army leader was like a hamster, starting to dig holes like a hamster, hoarding all kinds of military supplies.

Except for Xiao En, no one knows exactly how many magic warehouses and military supplies the Yongye Army has built under the northern defense line.

As the core northern fortress of the entire northern defense line, it is naturally the top priority.

Now it is definitely worthy of the name of a fortress. The front wall has been built many times, and it is already 33 meters long.

The height alone made many enemies despair and gave up their preparations to attack it.

Not to mention the rebuilt city wall, it is by no means a brick city wall in the ordinary sense, but it is integrated with the mage tower group in the northern fortress and has special functions.

As for what the special function is, very few people know it, because it has never been fully operated since it was built.

Not to mention the purification towers and forts, they are densely covered the entire city.

This well-arranged northern line of defense is exactly the confidence that Sean and the others returned to aid after hearing that the Undead Empire had invaded the south on a large scale. They still followed their own pace and severely damaged the East China Sea Fleet.

Although the leader of the Yongye army paid attention to this southward invasion of the undead empire, from top to bottom, it was far from being panicked.

At this moment, the leaders of the Yong Ye army are still considering not simply relying on the northern defense line to defend, but to attack, counterattack, find ways to repel them, or even completely defeat them.

"We have discussed the matter of defense many times, and I will emphasize the last time here. The magic subway is the key to the whole war. As long as we ensure that our magic tractors are unimpeded, no matter which undead army chooses to attack At any point, they will be facing our entire garrison at that time, and under normal circumstances, it will definitely not be so easy to break through the defense."

Sean's fingers slid across the line belonging to the magic subway, paused slightly, and continued, "But everyone, don't take it lightly. After all, there is an extraordinary existence standing behind them. I don't know if they will show some Conventional means beyond our imagination, so, before that, we have to try and stop them as much as possible!

And the sky of the undead became our first problem in stopping them.

If we don't want to find a way to break through their undead canopy, let alone launch a counterattack, our army will go deep into it, and it is likely to become the raw material for them to transform undead soldiers.

Therefore, I led the craftsmen in our territory to design this chariot! "

Xiao En waved his hand again, and another holographic projection appeared in front of everyone.

This is a two-wheeled carriage, but what is dragged on it is not a carriage, but a pillar. Its shape is 70 to 80% similar to the purification tower on the city wall, but it is a miniature version.

"Could this be a mobile purification tower?" Marshal Di Kelong's eyes lit up and said, "This is a good idea. When the time comes, take the purification tower deep into the sky of the undead. It will not only serve as lighting, but also speed up the soldiers' light system." The recovery speed of combat skills can even weaken the combat effectiveness of undead soldiers, it really kills multiple birds with one stroke, but I don’t know how many such chariots have been manufactured?”

"The time is a bit rushed, and only a hundred of this kind of holy light chariot have been rushed!" Sean replied, "Once the effect of this kind of chariot on the undead sky is confirmed, the arsenal can produce it according to the situation. If it is full, It is not difficult to produce one hundred vehicles per month."

"Then what are you waiting for?" Marshal Di Kelong said impatiently, "The Guards Corps is the best candidate to test this kind of chariot. It is better to hit the sun than to choose a day. Let's set off immediately and give a severe blow to their arrogance. , Let them know that we are not helpless, and when we move forward, we have some scruples!"

"The Guards Legion had just finished fighting on the Donau Plain, and then moved to the northern fortress to fight again and again. Now that they have just returned, they didn't even have time to eat hot food. The Guards Legion used it during this time It's too frequent, and this battle with the undead empire doesn't know how long it will last, so it's not suitable for them to be in a state of high fatigue?" A trace of hesitation flashed across Xiao En's face.

"That's why the lord is only suitable to be a lord, not a general!" Marshal Di Kelong laughed loudly, "Don't talk about the guards, even for the ordinary army, what is this rush? They have thousands of days, use them at this moment, if there is any task, just give orders to the lord, and I will take care of it."

"Since the marshal said so, this task is none other than yours!" Xiao En nodded, not arguing with Marshal Di Kelong on this.

Sean himself knew that he really wasn't qualified to lead soldiers into battle.

He understands that kindness does not control soldiers and righteousness does not control wealth.

But after so many years of tempering, he still failed to harden his heart.

In this regard, not to mention his daughter-in-law Princess Sophilia, even Countess Angelberina can't compare.

If they were thrown in an ordinary political environment at the same time, Sean would definitely be overwhelmed by them, and he would suffer a lot.

But this character also has its advantages.

That is to let the marshals and generals below give full play to their talents without any worries.

Especially people like Marshal Di Kelong are like a fish in water. The more opportunities he is given, the bigger the situation will be, and the more surprises he will bring.
