Chapter 6 Abnormalities

"The troops of various forces did not directly block the gate of death. It would be too stupid to do so. They would only allow themselves to be attacked by the undead." Flar did not tease the girls anymore and began to explain seriously: "So the front posts of all parties are one to two kilometers away from the gate of death, and the most frontier positions are arranged about twenty kilometers away from the gate of death. In this way, in the open desert, you can not only explore the movements of the gate of death through the gate of death, but also have a certain strategic depth and enough room for adaptation."

"The most important thing is that the supply distance can be shortened. In many cases, if the supply distance is reduced by one kilometer, the manpower and material resources consumed will be significantly reduced." Catherine, who is very familiar with military knowledge, nodded and agreed: "It is probably difficult to replenish supplies in the desert. Even if the sand people use sandworms to undertake most of the transportation work, the total number of soldiers of all races in the frontier positions is at least 50,000 or 60,000. It is not easy to maintain the diet of so many people. In a sense, the difficulty of the undead appears from the desert of sighs and intercepting them is greatly improved."

"You have not been to the Sigh Desert. It is indeed very terrible as one of the life forbidden zones in the Yara world." Flar sighed: "Although the Sand Kingdom is also built in the desert, the sand people's territory has plants, oasis, and creatures. As long as we have enough knowledge of desert survival, we can still live easily. However, Sigh Desert is different. Sigh Desert has nothing in the desert, only a piece of yellow sand. Even if we search the desert, we can't find food or water. We get lost in the Sigh Desert. The only result is death. Even the most powerful people are not immune. Because the living conditions are too harsh, the forces do not dare to place too many troops in the depths of the desert for a long time, including us, so the total number of troops on the front line is only 20,000, but these 20,000 people are the most elite troops, and they can temporarily hold back the undead's advance and wait for follow-up troops to follow up or other orders."

"Are there 20,000 people? The number is a little small." Catherine thought, "I have never seen the scene of the undead war, but when I imagined the undead with a full view, I felt that 20,000 people were not enough."

"Once the outpost issued an early warning, the troops will press forward." Flar explained: "If the encirclement is narrowed, the elite soldiers can still control the undead in a short period of time. As long as there is time to react, the troops behind can block all the paths and follow them up layer by layer. After all, it is not certain whether the door of death will be opened at first, and it is impossible to have more people inside."

"Well, the people who make tactics are definitely more professional than me." Catherine nodded and said, "I am definitely not as comprehensive as theirs, so I won't talk much. Since the troops are all equipped, what happened next?"

"As soon as the door of death is opened, the outpost alerts the troops of all parties, and the undead also surges out of the gate of death as imagined." Although Flar was narrating what had happened, he always felt a sense of confusion: "According to the established tactics, the troops in the frontier positions began to advance forward and shorten the distance between the two sides. But just after one-third of the push, the soldiers of the outpost ran back to report, saying that something was wrong, and hoped that the commanders of the troops would see the situation clearly before making a decision. So, the troops blocked the range of less than ten kilometers around the gate of death. Several frontline commanders followed the scouts to approach the gate of death, and saw a scene that surprised them."

"The undead didn't attack them, right?" Panis put his arm on the table and held his chin and said leisurely: "I'll hear your elders quarrel, what kind of undead will line up."

"Well, according to our previous experience, the undead will only attack creatures frantically. Once they emerge from the gate of death, they will spread around as soon as possible. When they see scouts, they will naturally try their best to tear them to pieces." Flar nodded and said, "But this time it is different. It is said that after the undead comes out, they line up like an army and set up a defensive formation. When the commanders arrived, nearly ten thousand undead have already surged out of the gate of death, forming several teams, using the defensive formation to protect the gate of death, and from the gate of death, more undead continue to rush out, and then directly join the existing troops to enhance the power of defense."

"This is too terrible." Catherine frowned and said, "If I were the commander, I would probably ignore anything and break through the opponent's defensive positions as soon as possible to prevent them from gathering their troops. Otherwise, the more they dragged it behind, the harder they would be."

"It's true in theory, but the actual situation does not allow it." Flar shook his head and said, "The undead are not like the last time. There are very few high-level undead mixed in the blockbusters of low-level undeads. This time, the very powerful undead came out at the beginning. Even the elite troops were not sure to break through the enemy's defense line. After all, the initial tactics were designed according to the very weak undead that appeared at the beginning. No one expected that this would suddenly turn out like this."

"What then?" Catherine asked, "What measures have our troops taken?"

"The commanders immediately summoned their elites to press forward within three kilometers of the gate of death. During this period, the undead ignored the scouts peeping at their positions and just set up defenses on the spot. Even if the scouts were approaching an extremely dangerous distance, they seemed to have not seen it." Flar explained: "When the troops and the undead are very close, the commanders will start to make various attempts. However, unless the troops approach the minimum warning range of a normal unit, the undead will suddenly take an attacking posture to threaten. Once the troops retreat, the undead will return to their original defensive posture and will never pursue them."

"Are they really undead?" Catherine said in disbelief: "It's already a well-trained normal force."

"When the commanders pass the information back, many people have the same idea as you." Flar smiled bitterly: "This situation makes the commanders dare not attack rashly. Who knows whether the rash attack will suddenly attract the counterattack of the undead. If the elite troops cannot resist, they will not be able to complete the task of blocking the undead. Fortunately, these undeads only revolve around the gate of Death and do not spread around. Therefore, the front-line troops can only monitor the movements of the undead while seeking help from the back."
