Chapter 591 590.The Cunning Happy Stick is Thinking About Something Dangerous Again
“So, the correct way to use this support points should be ‘battle for battle’, investing in the early stages to expand your advantage, recruiting awesome guys into the field to harvest them in the later stages, and eventually saving up the points for a set of big ones.
Classic RTS operational thinking.
You can’t save up front, and you have to be smart about it to pave the way to victory.”
After clarifying the idea of using support points correctly, Old Qin then saw his undead assistant Baldwin summoning a few skeleton soldiers next to him to assist the players in cleaning up the battlefield, which made his eyes light up and he first flipped through the support list, then after gathering 1,500 points on the second day after two more defensive battles, he didn’t hesitate to spend them to summon necromancer Bella and Lady Berenice to join the battlefield.
The two summoned “undead heroes” are not ambiguous, they know exactly what they are here for.
After entering through the Scarlet Gate, the necromancer immediately began to massively summon the Jackal corpses on the battlefield to become the lowest level Skeleton Soldiers with Old Baldwin’s assistance, and then handed them over to Mrs. Berenice’s command.
This instantly allowed the available manpower in Old Qin’s hands to exceed 1000.
The funny thing was that because all the jackals’ heads had been cut off to make “Jing Guan”, the skeleton soldiers that Bella had awakened didn’t have heads, which made them look very funny, but it didn’t affect their combat power.
Skeleton soldiers don’t need heads to fight anyway.
Old Qin didn’t even need them to fight, just let them hurry to complete their position planning, in the evening of the second day, the refusal trench that Old Qin wanted was finally completely dug out in the front, the second round of mines were also set up under the leadership of Lin.
“Players are withdrawing to the trenches! Have the Skeleton Soldiers hold the front!”
Old Qin adjusted the arrangement, which proved to be the right option again, and just two hours after the denial trench was fully dug, the elite Jackals of more than 300 men with an equal number of stragglers attacked the heights once again.
The veteran noticed that this time the incoming jackals were flying a different battle flag than before again, indicating that the attacks had been launched by different jackal clans over the course of the two days.
But what the hell were these guys doing?
Obviously a few clans gathered together have abundant superior strength to crush in numbers, but still want to send one wave after another, this is not playing into the most fatal “add oil to the war method”? Is the Jackal Dude on the other side not a fool?
Even if he has more troops, he can’t use them like this!
However, this is a really good thing for the defense of the second regiment, the process of this battle is also lackluster, is a replica of last night’s battle.
He ordered the artillery positions on the high ground to keep firing and suppressing, and the players in the trenches were able to spray bullets and psychic energy to their heart’s content, this kind of battle with the “undead meat shield” to resist the line of battle is too good, and the Skeletons killed the Jackals will be counted as their kills, which is the same as “snowballing! “Snowballing”?
I didn’t realize that Master Qin was also a master of operations.
The last bayonet to see blood, morale has been accumulated in the second regiment only used a resolute white-knuckle charge to break the morale of the jackals, that fierce counterattack posture is like to proclaim, the old man will live in this!
Niu Niu was still excitedly waving the Scarlet Beast Regiment’s flag on the high ground, causing a group of munchkins to wail in celebration, and others to take pictures below.
This rather heroic scene was also watched by Happy Stick, the commander of the 3rd Battle Regiment who was always observing the other side of the position, and this guy exclaimed that the old man who had not yet grown old was invincible, while also playing his own little mind.
“Let all those budding newcomers in our regiment who intend to go the psychic route learn ‘Turning Stone into Clay’! That’s the only thing I ask of them.”
Happy Stick said to several temporarily assigned commanders in the group on the official forums:
“Especially on your side, Fording. Have the newbie psychics make sure to learn to turn stone into clay, and when it’s our turn to go up, in addition to adopting Master Qin’s current tactics, we’re going to massively use Fossilized Stone into Clay to shape the terrain around our position into a state that’s more suitable for us to defend in the long run.
Especially in the other three directions besides the front!
You should hurry up and find the Stonemason Brotherhood and ask them to produce a map of the four defenses of the high ground position for me!
I’m basically certain that once the Jackals are unable to break through the Blood Banner Heights from the front, they’ll definitely opt for a feint around the back, and as we hold there for a longer period of time, it’ll eventually develop into a situation where we have enemies on all sides.
Old Qin is seriously unprepared for this, I’m sure they won’t be able to hold it for five days! At the most, they’ll have to retreat in three or four days.
That’s when it’s time for our heroes to make their appearance.”
“And pick the support heroes!”
The all-risky half-hanging who had been appointed as the subordinate commander of the Third Battle Regiment spoke up:
“Right now, it seems that the necromancer combo that Old Qin Tou picked is undoubtedly the most cost-effective initial option, and his ‘snowball’ tactics are something we must learn from, the first 1,500 points are going to be saved for the necromancer combo, and the second 2,000 I think we’ll switch to Maxim.
He’s a T that can effectively fend off those overpowered individuals and the vampire bonus at night makes us unafraid of night battles.
Summon Missy for the third 2500, and Kudel for the fourth 3000.
This is the optimal solution!
There’s T, control, DPS and logistics, and after these four heroes are summoned, the rest is just random. The reason I lost is that he was trying to save up points for the big ones, and he was speedpassed in the early rounds.
Ugh, the operation was so bad.”
“You’re overthinking it, Brother Half-Hanging.”
Happy Stick mercilessly spat:
“You can tell by looking at the intensity of this ever-increasing offense right now that by the time we get up there, the speed at which the support points are refreshed will definitely exceed your imagination. I have a premonition that in the final round of the Deathmatch, we might have to summon all of the NPCs to make it to the end.”
Fully Dangerous Half Hanging was taken aback as he exclaimed:
“You mean this thing might end up with a Golden Jackal? It can’t be! The Black Plague has only just begun, this is the testing phase, how could such a strategic BOSS appear so soon?”
“I’m not talking about a single power.”
Happy Stick explained:
“I’m referring to the fact that the Jackals’ other troop types haven’t appeared yet, right now it’s just the Hunters and Brute Soldiers charging.
Don’t forget that they also have specialty units like Hunt Priests who can add group bloodlust, and Voodoo Priests who are ruthless players who play with corrosive poisons, and can even summon undead as well, which we’ve all seen in the Battle of the Swamp.
People jackals also have a complete set of troops to match, that is the real real ‘black plague’, we are now facing this at most called a test attack, anyway, the jackals are large enough in number, the birth of the fast, cannon fodder die without heartache.
But as long as we keep guarding this, it’s a horrible blow to the morale of the jackals, and they have to pull out this nail if they want to attack the Black Flame Pass in one fell swoop.
We won’t give up easily, which dooms the difficulty of the battles afterward to just keep doubling until a boss appears that we can’t fight, and hey, isn’t that how the Monster Siege formula works?
The devs have said that this is the last event of the closed beta phase.
How could they not brush a boss of sufficient weight to mark the start of the internal beta?
I’ve heard people say that there are actually quite a lot of high level forces on the Jackals’ side, but they’re just scattered across various clans with no way to unite and harmonize. When the King of Bone Biting crossed the continent, there were seven or eight Golds under his command.
However, I always think that the gold people are actually the high-end force in the primary stage of the game. I have read the history of the Black Plague written by the Westlanders, in which there are more than one record of cases in which the gold people have been trapped and piled up to death with their numbers.
They’re not invincible!
As the plot continues to advance, sooner or later there will be a demigod-ranked character, or even a god descending into the world, and in that case, the current invincible gold-ranked is just a gatekeeper boss. Hadn’t Lord Murphy summoned a Star Realm Demigod during the Holy Blood Festival’s event?
The power pool of The Real Otherworld is deep, and there’s definitely more to fight in the back.”
—
This guy, Happy Stick, actually has the talent of “Crow’s Mouth”, saying good things that don’t necessarily take effect, but saying bad things that are right on the money.
On the second day after he made his “prophecy”, that is, the third day of the second battle group guarding the highlands, at noon, spell casters appeared in the group of jackals that came to attack. Although there were only two Hunt Priests, but with the group bloodthirsty spells they used, they immediately raised the power of the miscellaneous jackals to the elite level.
Moreover, with the bloodlust spell boost, these bastards’ aggressiveness was simply drawn out, and their morale was almost locked up, daring them to wail and charge forward against the rain of gunfire.
This was truly both quantity and quality.
The skeleton army shaped by the necromancer Bella couldn’t hold back the raging jackals, and the “Barrel Boys” almost smoked their little barrels before they managed to stabilize the line of fire, but to make matters worse, the Hunt Priests quickly threw out their “Long Range Invalid” totems, which instantly destroyed their ability to fight the jackals. However, to make matters worse, the Hunt Priest quickly threw out a “Ranged Null” totem, nullifying the damage done by the small players hiding in the trenches with their guns.
This sudden change forced Old Qin to change his strategy again, allowing Niu Niu and Cat to lead the melee veteran players to start a wave of grueling fights, making the originally good situation instantly become precarious.
Seeing that even the veteran players had suffered casualties, and that the Berserk Jackals were constantly attacking the position so that Lumina’s machine gun team had destroyed two hunting crossbows, the newcomers who were still alive knew that they would be a liability if they stayed.
They are very clear about their own position, in the case of not being able to sneak attack with muskets, it is difficult to produce strong results, go up to resist the line and can not withstand the elite units, so these guys discussed privately, after consulting with Lao Qin, it is very elegant to carry forward the “traditional virtues” of the players.
Under the cover of barrel fire, 40 newcomers who have not passed the Black Iron Trial touched the side of the jackals through the transportation trench between the two tiers of trenches, and then the “golden partners” who drank the wine of victory and the last-ditch spell together staged a crazy self-destruction tactic.
These guys hard rely on human life pile, the two hiding in the jackals position of hunting priests caught out and blew up, which made the jackals rushing the crazy force was suppressed.
Thanks to the heroism of the newcomers, this wave of attack was hard to carry through, but after the end of the battle, old Qin counted, the number of the second fucking war group has dropped to three hundred and seven people.
Good guy!
The opponent’s numbers were less than his own, and he had knocked out a quarter of his own manpower in a single battle, which allowed Old Qin to finally have an intuitive understanding of the destructive power of the Black Plague.
He immediately realized that if the Jackals’ subsequent attacks were all like this and strengthened again, it would be a big question if his team could defend until the fourth day!
“Old Qin, don’t keep the score! When the next wave of monsters refreshes, directly summon Thorned Nightwalkers to assassinate and clear out the Hunting Priests! That support program was used to do just that.”
Happy Stick privately exchanged a wave with Old Qin, who reminded:
“And you dug your third trench too fast, there’s no way to summon Winged Cavalry to charge in this terrain now, digging only two is the optimal solution.”
“Indeed, I was only thinking about defense before, but now it seems that there’s no way to turn the tide just by defending, we must take the initiative if necessary to hold out until the fifth day.”
Old Qin was optimistic.
He taught Happy Stick all about his experience in these three days, and at the end, he said:
“Don’t summon the necromancers for the next round, I suggest you summon the Blood Rat Assassins first time around, the necromancers need enough corpses to form a fighting force. My necromancer servant Old Baldwin told me that only the corpses of Black Iron Elite Jackals can summon Skeleton Warriors, ordinary Skeleton Soldiers are just moving targets in front of the rampaging Jackals.
Therefore, the ‘husband and wife team’ of Bella and Bernice should be saved to be summoned in the middle and late stages of the battle in order to maximize their effectiveness.
Those Jackals are gathering again, there are a lot of enemies in this wave, I estimate that my team will be able to defend until tonight at the most, but it doesn’t matter, it’s enough to defend for three days.
We’ll switch defenses with you guys at midnight today.
I’ll spend the rest of my score on summoning Maxim later to help you guys test the combat power of this ‘hero unit’.”
“No, no, no, you guys summon Lady Adele.”
Happy Stick said:
“We have to maximize our benefits with the limited support scores we have on hand, I guess Lady Adele should favor a one-hit-kill assassin style, although there’s no way to help you guys flip the game, but if there’s a Silver individual in the next wave, you can summon her for an assassination.
That way your warband buddies can at least pick up good drops and everyone’s morale can be maintained.
I’ll say a few more words ah, Master Qin, you this straight forward strong style has to change, this is playing the game it, you have to let everyone have a can see the hope, the reality that set can be borrowed but can not be used directly.
You don’t know what those guys on the forums say about you, some people call you an ‘old warlord’.”
Old Qin was silent for a moment, some unwillingness to spit said:
“They can call it whatever they want, I don’t care. But it’s just that not completing the mission is a bit upsetting, although the players are not afraid to die, this discipline is too poor, the organization is not too good, and the training is even worse.
If you can give me a well-staffed regiment.”
“The problem is that there isn’t!”
Happy Stick sighed and said:
“No is actually good, if they do come, there’s nothing left for us to do. By the way, Master Qin, you never told me what year you retired, that’s a bit inadequate ow.”
“Hey, also intends to check my bottom ah you kid, then if I tell you, I theoretically have not retired it, how should you respond? Haha, this news don’t spread out, or else ‘military justice’!”
Old Qin hemmed and hawed, threw down a sentence and hung up the communication.
This directly froze Happy Stick.
He then thought of a horrible possibility, with Master Qin’s age not having retired from the military by now, and then associating it with Master Qin’s spat just now, and finally adding the fact that recently, his own Hammer and Sickle Regiment had been constantly getting applications from retired veterans to come over.
Rod’s body shook violently.
He was a bit afraid to think down the road.
Could it be that this Master Qin is also . Blanch, just how many people did the family arrange to come in ah! Or had it been arranged without the others realizing it. Tsk, shouldn’t he take his own brothers and wisely give up control of the Hammer and Sickle Regiment and start a new business?
If one’s thoughts were correct, then after the next big version opened, Master Qin would really be the one with a regiment in his hands.
It’s just as scary as it sounds.
The question is, what good things are there over here to attract the family?
This side of the technology is so backward, although there is spiritual energy, but things can not be brought back, complete “soul penetration” can not talk about when the two realms of the money, this in the end what is the figure ah?
“Brother Stick! The masonry fraternity’s drawings are ready.”
Just when Happy Stick was pondering, a call rang out from outside the door of this command post located at the Black Flame Mountain Pass, Stick turned around and saw that the guy called “Paid to Feed Fish” came striding over with mints in his mouth and handed him a roll of drawings.
“That, Feed the Fish, I have something to ask you .”
“Uh-huh? Let’s talk, we’re all brothers, don’t be so formal, Brother Stick, my brother and sister are still waiting for you to take us to paint good equipment.”
“Uh, think carefully, or not ask, you go busy, when I finish reading the drawings we go to Wolf Castle to brush copies, you call a few more brothers with good relationships but poor equipment to go together, just for our third war group to supplement the accumulation of equipment.”
“Yeah!”
