Chapter 1763: 589. at Grinder Officially Starts
After the first regint retreated back to their position, the defenders at Blackfla Mountain Pass didn’t even have ti to be shocked by the terrifying combat resolve of these Transia people. They saw over 500 mbers of the second regint, taking over from their comrades with an indescribable “excitent,” stepping over the remains and the scent of blood and once again guarding the heights.
But Ayu’s “Crow’s mouth prophecy” before going offline to rest was correct.
The very afternoon the second regint took their position, they faced the second wave of harassnt attacks from the nearby wolf people, and by the end of the fight that evening, the second regint had lost one-sixth of their n in one battle.
Many excited newbies rushed forward to try and engage in combat with the wolf people but didn’t last even thirty seconds before eting their end. Clearly, individual combat strength is hard to wield in such chaotic large-scale engagents, especially since these newbies who joined just a few days ago have little to no “individual combat strength” to speak of.
Many of them were thrown into the “death match” without even having fully mastered the basic skills. It’s not just elite monsters; even ordinary wolf people didn’t require heavy attacks. All they had to do was wait for the newbies to charge in shouting, making it easy to break their moves with one strike, and the second strike would finish them off.
This embarrassing way of dying led the newbies to lant about the lack of gaming experience on the forums, but the old players wouldn’t coddle them. Anyone who whined would imdiately be bestowed with the honorary title of “chicken,” and the Appetite Relief Party would waste no ti in rushing to mock them.
It’s not that the old players bully the newcors; there’s a reason for their behavior.
The first battle of the second regint wasn’t fatal for all the newbies. Those who followed Commander Lord Qin’s orders to dig trenches before the battle started, and patiently stayed in them until the counterattack was launched, all survived.
Moreover, during the final phase of the counterattack, almost everyone reaped so rewards.
Among those who perished, apart from a few truly unlucky individuals, most belonged to the “unorganized and undisciplined” group. The facts proved that in this type of large-scale defensive group battle, the consequence of not following orders is nothing but being wasted.
This is the unique combat strategy of the second regint.
Lord Qin fully absorbed the lessons of the first regint. Before taking Blood Flag Heights, he grouped the old players, assigning roles in assault, defense, long-range support, and dical support in a well-organized manner.
Upon taking over the position from the first regint, Lord Qin’s first order was to have the newbies, who had not been assigned specific tasks, begin digging trenches around the heights. This was his “grand gift package” and “first lesson” for the newbies.
If there’s no individual combat power, let’s replace it with collective obedience.
They had conducted rehearsals in the crisscrossing trenches of the Maginot Line a few tis in advance and had a basic understanding of trench warfare.
Different from Brother ow, who relied on shouting commands and eye contact, Old Qin set up several fixed zones on the heights. He gathered all the firebombs and players skilled in using them on the heights as an artillery position, handing over most of the explosives to players of the Hunter and Forest Ranger professions, stationed in the first line of trenches to provide fire support.
He also planned to dig a second circle of trenches after the first day’s battle ended as blocking trenches to stop the swift Throne Wolf assaults of the wolf people.
Given that the wolf people currently only attack from one direction in the front, Old Qin believed that with the proper coordination, the remaining n under his command could definitely hold out.
Clearly, the second regint is preparing to turn Blood Flag Heights into a multi-layered trench defense line with crossfire, and Old Qin, this old soldier becoming more youthful by the day, intends to turn this place into a “at grinder.”
He wasn’t acting on a whim to do this. During the days the first regint defended the heights, Lord Qin made a special trip back to the National Armory of Transylvania, and cleared out Loyal Brother’s stockpile of idle explosives.
He absolutely ca prepared.
“Three days!”
Amidst the smoke after the first battle ended, Old Qin stood on the heights, leaning on his Mosin Nagant, and shouted down at the players looking up at him:
“My requirent is, we must hold for at least three days! This is the bottom line; every day beyond that is profit. I know it’s hard, but a mission is a mission! There’s no room for negotiation.
The second regint will either complete the mission or be carried out by our brothers’ troops!
I know many of you still don’t appreciate my command right now, but that’s okay! If you refuse to comply, leave, and wait at the first or third regint.
I don’t want those who don’t follow orders here!
Our second regint has the most newbies, but I don’t see this as a bad thing. The old players have beco accustod to their freedom and have their combat styles, but the bloody example of the first regint proved that their thods don’t work in real wars!
I will teach you how to fight if you’re willing to learn.
Now follow my orders and complete the digging of the blocking trenches before the next wave of wolf people attacks! Lin!”
“Here!”
The Tiger Leopard Riders Lin, whose na was called, straightened up with a jerk and stood forward, Old Qin gestured that he need not salute, but sternly said:
“You co from an engineer soldier background, I need you to lead a team to lay mines at the end of the combat area. I brought 800 pieces of anti-infantry landmines, experintal improvents from the armory, entrusted to to see the practical effect.”
