Chapter nine hundred and seventy-ninth: Camp howl? Enemy attack?(1/2)
It’s just that people’s calculations are not as good as God’s calculations.
During the excavation process of the last section of construction, the engineering corps led by the Yongye Army discovered that the last section of the construction they originally planned would pass through a dislocated fault vein layer.
This broken vein layer is the most taboo terrain for their Underground Magic Railway. The load-bearing points here are too confusing and too weak. Once the crucial load-bearing points are dug, it will at least create safety hazards for the Underground Magic Railway.
, in severe cases, a landslide accident may occur.
Now they are very close to the Huayu Plateau. Once a major collapse accident occurs, they are likely to expose their secret weapons to the enemy in advance.
After repeated discussions and weighing, the Yongye Army led by Marshal Tagore led the Southwest Front and adopted a relatively safe strategy to adjust the construction route.
It’s just that the relationship between Huayu Plateau and Yongye Military Leader has become extremely tense.
The Yongye military leader has no way to send a large number of technical personnel to conduct surface surveys and re-select the ground breaking point.
This gives the breaking point a certain degree of randomness.
Then the scene that broke out of the ground at the entrance of Baker Village appeared.
Although there were some minor accidents in the process, the overall result was still extremely beneficial to the Southwest Front Army led by Yong Ye.
Because they had successfully avoided the first and most important connecting barrier on the Huayu Plateau, it had penetrated behind them without anyone noticing.
Controlling everyone in Baker Village and the surrounding ten kilometers is only the first task of this vanguard army.
The second task was to cooperate with the engineer corps that followed them to carry out infrastructure construction in Baker Village.
In addition to the old, weak, sick and disabled, most of the villagers in Baker Village also joined the construction army under coercion and inducement, doing some of the most marginal auxiliary work.
It is precisely in this way that they have the opportunity to witness miracles and realize what eternal night speed is.
Baker Village, which they no longer knew how many generations had lived here, was razed to the ground in less than a day.
Most of the villagers in Baker Village were still immersed in the state of grief and anger after losing their homes and dared not express their anger. When they woke up the next day, they found that not only had their village been wiped out, but there were also countless large potholes in the place.
In terms of shape, it is exactly the same as the one that first appeared at the entrance of the village.
You don't need to ask to know that it must be the masterpiece of the huge monster that the dragon has seen but never seen.
After the foundation was laid, it took only a week for a tower to rise more than thirty meters high.
The villagers in Baker Village did not know the functions of this tall tower called the Mage Tower. Just the height and the speed of construction shocked them speechless.
After the Mage Tower was successfully built, the leaders of the Yongye Army, from top to bottom, were obviously relieved. The control over the villagers of Baker Village was immediately reduced by three or four levels. As long as they did not do anything inappropriate, they could basically enter and exit freely.
.
This kind of lax control has made many villagers in Baker Village feel restless and start fighting against themselves.
Although the army led by Yong Yejun has not deliberately made things difficult for them so far, in addition to having to work harder, the quality of food and clothing has even improved several levels. After all, the labor uniforms distributed by them are far from the best.
More than what they were wearing before.
But after all, they are prisoners now. They lack understanding of the Yong Ye military leader and have natural distrust. If there is a chance, it is their instinct to want to escape.
But they soon discovered in despair that the reason why the soldiers under the Yongye Army relaxed supervision on them was because they had stronger means and were confident that they would not be able to escape from this prison.
As long as the villagers of Baker Village leave the activity area assigned to them by the other party, they will enter a foggy area.
This fog not only blocked their sight, but also made their sense of direction very confusing. After wandering around for a long time, they not only failed to escape the control of the Yongye Army leader, but got lost in it.
By the time the soldiers led by the Yongye Army retrieved them from the mist, most of them had already starved to death.
The soldiers led by the Yongye Army did not need to punish them severely at all, they only needed to throw those escapees in front of everyone.
After seeing their miserable appearance, I no longer dared to think of escaping easily.
With the fog of war created by the mage tower, it serves as a protective camouflage.
The engineer corps led by the Yong Ye Army completely let go of their hands and feet, and a steady stream of supplies was transported up through the underground magic railway. Even the ground-digging purple insects accompanying the army showed up more and more often.
A large-scale city camp was rapidly formed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
It is no exaggeration to describe it as one day at a time.
The villagers in Baker Village were finally shocked and numb.
Whether it was the terrifying construction speed or the magic car that rumbled onto the ground along the magic railway track, it was beyond their understanding.
In less than a month, the 100,000-strong army led by the Yongye Army had unknowingly jumped over the first line of defense on the Huayu Plateau and appeared behind the intercepting army led by Count Nickles.
Not only were a large amount of military supplies transported together, but even powerful siege equipment such as heavy artillery were also continuously transported.
…
"The enemy has attacked the camp, the enemy has attacked the camp, prepare to fight, everyone is ready to fight..."
"The enemy has already entered our military camp. We can't stop it. Run away..."
"Everyone must guard their campsite and are not allowed to mess up or run away, otherwise they will be killed without mercy."
At four o'clock in the morning on September 5th, the Nickles Army barracks stationed at the Helian Mountain Pass suddenly erupted with countless shouts of killing from all directions, flames shot into the sky, and the whole camp exploded.
"What's going on? Is there a camp roar?" The supreme commander, Count Niklos, rushed out of his barracks with disheveled hair and disheveled clothes, and asked anxiously.
If the enemy has not yet come to kill him, and they start roaring and killing each other, he is afraid that he will be nailed to the pillar of shame and will never be able to stand up again.
"It doesn't seem like the camp is roaring. It's said that an enemy is coming to kill you!" The leader of Count Niklos' personal bodyguard replied with an uncertain look on his face.
"Absolutely impossible, the enemy will never come over." Count Niklos said decisively, "Yesterday, there was news that the army led by Yongye Army has not set off yet. Even if we give them wings, it will not be possible.
Maybe they rushed over so quickly, please take me to see it quickly, it must be the roar of the camp, we must control the commotion within a controllable range."
Count Nicholls had not taken a few steps when he saw a baron running over with a few disheveled guards and several guards. As he ran, he shouted loudly: "General, something bad has happened.
The enemy came from behind us. Their attack was too fast and fierce. My people were slaughtered by them before they woke up from their sleep. We can't stop it. We can't stop it. Run away!"
"Asshole! What have you done? Shut up!" When Count Nicholas heard the other party's kind reminder, not only was he not grateful at all, but his nose almost became angry.
Camp roars are often riots caused by trivial things. Most soldiers do not understand the situation, causing internal panic. The most taboo is for generals to run around and shout.
The people below have a herd mentality. Even if they don't trust these generals in normal times, they will believe what they say now, because they don't believe that these generals are for their own good, but they will believe that they will cherish their lives.
Instinctively, they will follow them and run away, causing greater commotion until the situation is irreversible.
In particular, they are a patchwork monster composed of aristocratic private armies led by dozens of local aristocratic lords. They lack the most basic trust and understanding of each other, making it easier for them to fight.
When setting up camp, Count Nicholls had paid great attention to this aspect and organized all the local nobles into camps according to their respective affiliations.
However, this can stop ordinary soldiers from running away, but it cannot stop the local noble generals from running away.
"It's true, it's true that the enemy came and fought with the White Mountain and Black Water flag led by the Yongye Army. I saw it with my own eyes. There is absolutely no mistake." The local noble did not fully understand the real reason for Niklos' anger.
He shouted with certainty.
"Stop this idiot's mouth." Count Nicholls could no longer suppress the anger in his heart and ordered loudly.
"Yes!" Several of the earl's guards rushed forward like wolves and tigers, and pushed the expressionless local nobleman to the ground.
"General, how could you do this to me? Everything I said is true... You can't do this to me, I am Karl... Wuwu..." The local nobleman defended himself in confusion.
The count's guards faithfully fulfilled Count Niklos's order, pulling a roll of tattered linen cloth out of an unknown place and stuffing it into his mouth.
This piece of tattered linen cloth of unknown origin has the unique smell of men on the battlefield. It is sour and smelly, forming a unique biochemical weapon.
This young local nobleman had never enjoyed this before since he was a child. His eyes rolled back as he was hit, and he looked like he was about to faint.
At this time, Count Nicholls did not care whether the other party had any prominent status or had any personal relationship with his family.
Stabilizing the situation and preventing the camp roar from further expanding is the key.
Count Niklos gathered his troops and said in the loudest voice: "I am Gao Sen Nikles. Your Earl and your commander-in-chief, please calm me down. This is just a problem within a certain army.
The commotion caused was not due to an enemy attack on the camp. The army led by the Yongye Army was still on the Donau Plain and had not officially set out yet. Even if they were given wings, they would not fly here for a while. Everyone was
Stop where you are and don't move. You just need to wait until dawn and everything will return to normal."
"Calm down, calm down. This is just a camp roar. Everyone, stay where you are and don't move."
"Calm down, calm down, this is just a camp roar, everyone stay where you are and don't move."
"Calm down, calm down, this is just a camp roar, everyone stay where you are and don't move."
Count Nicholls's speech was quickly summarized into the shortest words and orders, which were shouted through the troops regrouped around him to appease people's hearts.
At the same time, as many bonfires as possible were lit, including some unoccupied tents, to illuminate the surroundings.
Darkness is also an important factor in promoting chaos.
Camping howls mostly occur at night or in unique environments such as dense fog. It is rare to hear of camp howling in broad daylight.
This did play a big role.
The title of Earl Niklos, Supreme Commander, still has a strong intimidating effect.
After seeing them, many soldiers couldn't help but believe what they said, stopped in their tracks, and stayed where they were.
After all, those who follow blindly have not really seen the enemy.
The situation is indeed as Count Nickles said, because until now, they have not seen half of the leader of the Eternal Night Army.
Count Nicholls's coping methods cannot be described as tactless.
But the premise of all this is based on the fact that it is really just Yingxiao.
To be continued...
