Chapter 1230 (1/2)
The outbreak of war always comes a little unprepared.
In September of 1882, when the autumn was cool, the first tragic war broke out in torus fortress since its completion.
***The torus fortress of the Kingdom has always been known as the pillar of the * * * Kingdom and the last place of the whole kingdom. They firmly believe that even if the * * * kingdom is completely occupied, as long as the fortress of torus still exists, the restoration of the country is a matter of time.
In the history of the miracle continent, the fortress of torus has not been occupied. Three times of enemy occupation made the defense and monitoring of torus fortress more and more strict: the first enemy occupation was because of internal problems; The second enemy occupation was the excavation of the tunnel; The third enemy occupation was due to the problem of material transportation.
In response to these problems, the fortress of torus has been guarded by the legitimate army most loyal to the royal family since the first fall. The combat effectiveness of this garrison may not be the strongest in * * * Kingdom, but it is undoubtedly the least afraid of death. After all, as long as you keep three magic crystal guns, what combat effectiveness is needed, the royal family of * * * Kingdom only wants loyalty.
After that, the whole underground and surrounding areas will be completely solidified by powerful magic, which is also the reason why the second torus fortress was captured. If the fierce battle broke out in the city, and the enemy finally occupied torus fortress, but could not refill the excavated secret Road, so that the reinforcements could enter the city from the secret Road, the fortress would really change its master.
Then came the third fall - strictly speaking, it could not be said to be the fall of the enemy, but the reserve army of torus fortress was almost wiped out in that war. Finally, with a weak trend and the timely arrival of five route reinforcements, it was finally able to reverse the situation. But because of this, torus fortress also realized that the logistics materials of the fortress were limited by the pain of outsiders, so it secretly trained several material transportation troops operated by the garrison of torus fortress nearby.
Unfortunately, with the joint suppression of the qainas Empire and the void Empire this time, all these secretly trained material transportation forces have been wiped out - William believes that the qainas Empire absolutely controls a material transportation force, that is, after the defeat of the void Empire, they have a good name and a fair share. Unfortunately, William knew this tactic from the beginning, and compared with the slightly clumsy means of the qainas Empire, the package changing tactic coordinated by rupee and elikate went to a higher level.
That's why William's invasion plan today came into being.
In the past month, the ******* put by rupee has penetrated into all the defenders of the whole fortress. However, this poison will not let them notice anything. At most, it makes them look a little listless and easy to fall asleep. However, this kind of thing can be shirked as the psychological pressure caused by being completely surrounded by the enemy for several consecutive months.
Of course, if the time is too long, with the gradual aggravation of the efficacy, it will certainly be found to be poisoning.
Therefore, when the efficacy reached the best prescription period, rupee led the transport force back, but this time all the materials were mixed with a different powder. This strange powder is colorless and tasteless and will not have any side effects. However, when mixed with the poisons previously put in, it will immediately form strong and highly toxic. The poisoned person will lose his mobility in a very short time, and then there will be the characteristics of virus infection: symptoms such as fever, vomiting, diarrhea and so on. After 10 to 15 hours, he will fall into comatose shock, This leads to organ failure and eventually death.
In just one hour, more than one fifth of the soldiers at Fort torus were infected with toxins and lost their ability to move.
At this time, the commander of torus fortress finally realized the problem.
The first instruction he gave was to strengthen the defense of the control center tower, because this was the control valve of the three magic crystal guns of the whole fortress. Once closed, torus fortress will lose its sharpest claws and tusks. It is no different from an ordinary fortress. The enemy can forcibly attack the city with several times the strength of the fortress.
In history, the fortress of torus fell several times because the control center tower was closed.
Just as he realized the seriousness of the problem at the first time, rupee and others attacked after the toxin took effect, which is indeed the most important core of torus Fortress - Magic Crystal Cannon Control Center tower. However, due to the quick response of the General Commander of torus fortress, rupee and others failed to attack the control center tower at the first time. A very tragic fighting war broke out here. However, when the combat intelligence was fed back to the General Commander of the fortress, he was still a little incredible.
Rupee fought and attacked together with one of his most trusted troops - of course, now disguised by William's direct subordinates. For this possible raid, after reaching an alliance agreement between the void Empire and the Millennium covenant Empire, William directly dispatched the dark wing Legion back from the wild fortress, selected the most elite 100 people and mixed with rupee into torus fortress.
Everyone who attacks the control center tower, including rupee, knows that this is a dead battle without Retreat: if they can't attack the control center tower, they will die, not others. Therefore, there was no suspense and hesitation. At the beginning of the battle, the Death Squadron led by rupee broke out amazing combat effectiveness, and the battle between the two sides directly entered a white hot level.
If the first order of the fortress commander was given very accurately and quickly, his second order was given in a certain way - but in a certain way, it was a completely stupid order for Hella's layout and William's tactics.
The regular garrison of torus fortress is about 100000, which does not include logistics and recruit training camps. However, with the retreat of the two fronts of the * * * Kingdom and the entry of royal family members, the actual conventional combat strength of torus fortress is as high as 200000. If torus fortress had not been expanded several times before and after, and had received a large number of reinforcements, I'm afraid it would not be able to fill so many people at all.
But after knowing that rupee and others stormed the control center tower, he dispatched nearly 40000 troops to reinforce the four gates.
According to the regional deployment of torus fortress, the conventional garrison of the four gates is five thousand each, and the other five thousand are the rotating garrison. Only after the outbreak of wartime, the 5000 rotating troops will immediately go to reinforce, so that the conventional garrison strength of the four gates can reach 10000 people each. The standing guard force that controls the central tower is 6000, and the wartime deployment will double to 12000. The other 48000 troops are responsible for fire fighting as mobile reserves.
However, with the Torres fortress becoming the last pillar of the * * * Kingdom and the influx of more than 100000 troops, the garrison strength of Torres fortress is extremely sufficient, so the standing strength has more than doubled.
At ordinary times, there are as many as 10000 garrisons in charge of the four gates, and another 10000 are responsible for taking over in shifts - under the alarm of the attack on the control center tower, the four gates' reinforcements issued by the General Commander of the fortress have caused the four gates to divide more than half of the fortress's troops. Taking into account the 20000 troops in the control center tower at this time, it means that there are only 60000 regular troops - Mobile rescue forces scattered in various regions of torus fortress.
This number is enough to maintain the stability inside the fortress.
But what if the enemy did not attack from the four gates, but from the inside?
When the five secret passages were completely opened and a steady stream of void imperial soldiers appeared in the whole torus fortress, the chaos of the whole torus fortress could not be restrained.
What is the advantage of 20000 to deal with less than 500 dead soldiers?
It must be very big. Rupee and others have no possibility of survival at all.
However, when the total strength of 80000 void Empire soldiers appeared from the five key points around the control center tower, and quickly completed the deployment, they began to attack the control center tower in a steady stream, can the 20000 troops controlling the center tower still be held?
The answer is also obvious.
It's impossible to hold!
It's just a matter of time!
If these people who impact the control center tower are mixed with two super strong people, how long will it take for the control center tower to fall?
The answer is one minute.
When kokirei waved his big sword and cut off the 40 meter high control center tower, the fortress of torus had completely lost its significance.
When Alexis' boots stepped on the roaring and collapsing control center tower, the outcome of torus fortress had been decided.
On hearing this report, there was silence throughout the military meeting at Fort torus.
”They... How dare they... Just dismantle the control center tower?”
”Don't... Don't they know the value of magic crystal cannon?”
”Why can they dig underground secret roads? Why don't we have any alarm messages? ”
”What the hell is going on?”
”It's impossible! This must be a dream! Am I having a nightmare? ”
”Fortress Torres cannot be captured so easily! Magic Crystal cannon... What about magic crystal cannon? Launch! ”
After the silence, there was chaos.
Panic and despair spread wildly and infected all the participants in the whole torus fortress. Whether generals, commanders, representatives of superior noble families, or heralds, intelligence soldiers and guards, everyone is crazy and unbelievable.
Just then, a scream sounded!
”Blood flag!” A middle-aged nobleman holding his hair was holding the window of the conference room pale. From this window, you can just see the control center tower that has been cut off by half, ”it is the blood flag of the void empire They, they're going to kill the city! We, we're dead! ”
”Calm down!” The commander in chief of Fort torus also saw the flag on the control center tower.
This is obviously a specially made blood flag: it is ten times the size of an ordinary flag. The flagpole is made of unknown huge logs. Visually, it is probably an ancient tree that needs at least three to five people to hold.
This huge blood flag is inserted on the control center tower of the highest landmark and core building of torus fortress, representing the original landmark and becoming the new landmark of torus fortress. Under the flame that was as bright as day under the night sky, the huge blood flag fluttering in the wind looked dazzling. The blood flag could be clearly seen in any direction and corner of the fortress.
Similarly, looking at the woman suspended in mid air, all the * * * soldiers in the fortress can also feel the terrible will under this blood flag.
This woman floating in midair is not Alexis, who is now famous all over the southern continent.
But no one knows who this woman is.
The imperial agent of the void Empire, Queen Phoenix, Cecilia Connery.
