Struggle in the Steam Age

"Okay, I think you have also heard the order of the great god." After watching the priests say something in the ears of the leaders of various races and then back away, Angst said looking at the people present.

"The next battle will be under my full command, and I don't want to hear any objections from anyone."

After speaking, Angst, the mistress of the dark elves, scanned the entire hall from left to right. Obviously, these leaders in the hall also received orders from their gods.

So although it could be seen from the expressions that everyone was a little upset, they all looked at Angst who was sitting in the main seat.

Angst looked at the situation on the field and nodded. For her, she didn't expect these leaders who had suffered heavy losses before to support her from the bottom of their hearts.

In her opinion, as long as the guys present here can cooperate with her actions in the next period of time, it is already very good, and the biggest support is not to delay.

"Now, let me arrange everyone's next tasks." After confirming her leadership position again, Angst began to arrange her new and final round of plans. "

We're going to have an all-out attack this time, just like last time, but this time with some simple changes—"

While the wild races were conspiring to launch an attack, the civilized races were also embroiled in controversy. Because the entire front has fallen into a strange calm, everyone is also arguing about the direction of the next action plan.

Some of them think that the front line is calm now because the opponent's strength has been hit. Therefore, it is time to stop in favor of resources in the construction of fortifications, and put all resources into offensive preparations to prepare for the attack.

But another group of people believed that although those wilderness races had suffered heavy losses in the previous battles, they were not powerless. So the silence on the front line is likely to be a harbinger of what big plans the other side is about to make.

The reason for such differences is also very simple. For most of the guest troops, most of the materials and weapons they need are self-provided, and the rewards they get in the end are related to their achievements on the battlefield. Hook up directly. Therefore, this kind of sit-in war is a process of spending but not gaining for them.

But for the local army of the White Eagle Federation, as long as they can penetrate the big mountain range and establish a line of defense in the mountain area, it is considered a victory in the war. Therefore, those commanders hope to win the war with a better casualty ratio, so for them, they naturally favor those safer tactics.

Due to the different demands of all parties, there were naturally endless debates within the headquarters. After all, the supplies that could be transported to the front line in a short period of time were limited, and it was simply impossible to support simultaneous defense and offensive preparations.

Fortunately, in the end, an army general sent by the White Eagle Federation as the commander-in-chief of this theater finally made a decision.

"I think we should continue to adhere to the defensive policy, and it is better to be prepared to meet the enemy's attack." The general surnamed Patton said, and then looked at those who supported the attack.

"As for your concerns, I also understand, so our commander-in-chief decided to reimburse you for all the supplies you consumed during the defense phase."

The choice of commanders for the coalition of civilized races is different from those of wilderness races. Their requirements for commanders are more focused on commanding ability, rather than choosing some commanders who can fight but are completely full of muscles like those barbarians. . For example, this general is just a professional fighter.

But judging from his current command method and coordination ability, this general who is only a low-level transcendent is obviously doing very well. Make full use of the specialty of the White Eagle Federation to resolve the current internal conflicts.

For the White Eagle Federation of the three major powers in the Northland, none of the problems that can be solved with secular money and low-level extraordinary materials are not problems.

Therefore, they were rich and powerful, and quickly used their banknote capabilities to resolve internal disputes, and then began large-scale construction preparations for possible defensive battles.

After this decision was made, the entire theater immediately entered a state of comprehensive defense and preparations. All the large-scale offensive plans previously scheduled were also abolished. Except for a small number of elite troops who went to the periphery to patrol and investigate, the other troops all turned into a defensive state on the spot.

So in addition to sending troops to clean up and patrol around the occupied area, the remaining soldiers were all turned into temporary construction workers to build various defensive facilities with various materials sent from the rear and collected on the spot.

Lawrence, who was in charge of the field hospital in Pine Valley, quickly felt the change in the overall situation, because with the adjustment of the overall tactics, the number of wounded soldiers sent from the front line has obviously decreased a lot, and the beds in the hospital have also become vacant.

But unlike the wounded who were mainly ordinary people before the previous step, the sent wounded soldiers included a high proportion of superhumans and some elite troops in addition to those idiots who hurt themselves while working.

Obviously, although the legions of the civilized race and the wilderness race have stopped large-scale operations recently, the two sides have not stopped elite scouting warfare in order to protect their secrets.

"It seems that our commander is now determined to fight a defensive battle." Because the field hospital is a non-combat force, the headquarters did not send Lawrence any notices about the next target of the army.

But because of Lawrence's rank, he could naturally get this information from the officers in the field hospital.

"Isn't this a good thing?" Nora said, using those indestructible silk threads to help a soldier remove a poisonous arrowhead stuck on his ribs, and then precisely peeled off the ribs and surrounding muscles because of those Those body tissues that were blackened and smelly due to the poison erosion, and some green herbal powder was taken out from the side and sprinkled on these parts.

"It's the corrosive poison of this group of dark elves again. Don't they have any other formula other than this poison fermented with mushrooms?" After touching the poisoned arrow with a silver-green silk thread, Nora was helpless. Tucao to. Because eight out of ten of the arrowheads she took out during this time were coated with this rather tricky extraordinary poison.

Fortunately, this coalition of civilized races also concentrated a large number of supernatural beings with healing abilities, so with their efforts, they quickly produced a batch of antidotes that can detoxify this poison and distributed them to Lawrence's field hospital. inside.

Although the price of this antidote is not very cheap, considering that the dark elves who use this kind of poisoned crossbow arrows are basically elites, there are not many of them.

At the same time, those who can run back with arrow wounds are also elites of civilized races who can fight against these elite dark elves. So using these magic potions at this time is always a good deal.

There was a sizzling sound after the green medicinal powder was sprinkled on the wound, and then puffs of turquoise smoke came out of the contact surface. Obviously, this kind of poison is very toxic, so it is also a painful thing to get rid of these poisons.

Even though the wounded man had inhaled some anesthetic gas and fell into a coma, he was still struggling like a conditioned reflex.

However, Nora was naturally prepared for this reaction, and soon a large number of silver-green silk threads formed tentacles and pressed him tightly on the bed. Then he calmly and skillfully completed all the work from debridement to suture.

For Nora, who had previously performed 12 surgeries in one go, this situation can only be regarded as trivial.

"It is indeed a good thing, because it means that we can win this war with relatively low casualties." Lawrence directed the soldiers under his command to build and arrange a new tent ward, while connecting with the soul Said to Nora, "But the construction on our side can't stop for the time being."
