I Became the King of Villains In the Game - Chapter 448

Chapter 448 Strong self-confidence

The violent explosion caused the ground and the mountain wall to tremble, and countless gravel and dust fell from the sky like rain, making a crackling sound.

“Enemy attack! Enemy attack!”

“Watch out for the top of your head!”

“Pay attention to cover avoidance!”

“Project B-4, use ‘Folding Barriers’ immediately!”

The officers of the Imperial Army reacted quickly, blowing sharp whistles and shouting loudly.

Three long whistles and one short whistle, and two short and one long whistles, seemed to contain certain secret signals.

The army did not panic under the sudden bombing. Thanks to their usual training and strong obedience, they quickly moved into action amidst the orders and whistles of the officers.

Except for a few extremely unlucky soldiers who were hit by bombs falling from the sky on the spot and shattered into powder, the rest of the soldiers formed a group and took out palm-sized metal cubes from their backpacks, manipulated them and threw them on the ground .

After hearing a few bang bang bangs, the metal cube fell to the ground and spread itself out into a cross-shaped metal sheet, and then continued to flip several times, laying a large piece of iron on the ground, and finally arched like a balloon to form a tent-sized hemispherical shelter.

The soldiers got into the “iron ball” in an orderly manner to avoid the bombing. Although they could not completely resist it, they could effectively reduce a lot of shrapnel and burn damage… At the same time, on the shell of the “iron ball”, those square iron There are several openings in the sheet, and flintlock barrels protrude from them, aiming at the enemy troops on the mountain walls on both sides of the head.

“Counterattack!”

The imperial officers didn’t even hide in the bunker, they just stood outside, standing straight, facing the shock wave and strong wind, and blew their whistles.

咻咻咻—

The whistle passed through the canyon, and several officers were killed on the spot, with limbs and arms flying around, but the rest of the officers ignored them and remained indifferent, as if they had no fear of death.

Bang bang bang…!

The bullets shot upwards from the bottom of the canyon like reversed rain, and for a while, the death squads of the Anlong United Kingdom were killed at an extremely fast speed and fell from the mountain wall.

The corpse looked like a dilapidated rag doll, spinning and hitting the ground at an extremely fast speed, making a dull sound. A few corpses hit the iron hemisphere, smashing it out of the sunken pit, and the blood stained it dark red.

At this time, General Vance had already got off the carriage, and four strong military men over two meters tall followed him closely, holding special shields the size of door panels for protection.

General with his hands behind his back, with a straight posture, he walked through the hail of bullets calmly. He still wore a pair of sunglasses on his face, and looked up at the enemy’s situation.

I saw that the Anlong enemy army on the mountain wall had already suffered heavy casualties. Although they had ambushed here in advance, their numbers were already at a disadvantage.

After a while, General Vance said faintly:

“Order to send out the ‘Mechanical Falcon’ to pursue and not let any enemy go.”

“Yes, Your Excellency General.”

The orderly following behind responded immediately, and immediately used the walkie-talkie to convey the order to the officers of each department:

“The mechanical falcon is dispatched! Chase the enemy!”

beep—

There was another strange whistle.

Hundreds of metal falcons sprayed steam, and the precision gears under the abdomen rotated, flapping their wings soaring into the sky, circling above the canyon.

They quickly locked onto the naked bodies fleeing on the mountain wall, their eyes glowed red, and then opened their beaks, revealing a pitch-black steel pipe.

咻咻咻—

The steel pipe ejected flames and cannonballs, falling with precision.

Boom!

Shells bombarded wantonly on the mountain wall, and the Anlong Death Squad who was trying to evacuate was shattered in this round of bombing by the Mechanical Falcon. Along with smoke and gravel, flesh and blood were even carbonized into fine particles, like fireworks blooming.

After a while.

Surrounded by his subordinates, Chen Lun walked through the cluster of temporary tents.

“Regimental Commander, General Vance seems to have expected it long ago. When the attack happened, we didn’t need our help at all. Those ‘military personal guards’ trained by mysterious substances have already protected him layer by layer…”

Frey and other congressmen reported the situation softly.

Chen Lun hummed and nodded slightly.

He saw many medical soldiers carrying stretchers and carrying the wounded into the tent in an orderly manner. Some treated soldiers walked out of them as if nothing had happened, and they returned to the team while wearing military uniforms.

‘The Imperial Army has a firm belief in loyalty to the Sun Royal Family, and is extremely obedient and disciplined. Coupled with the various black technologies developed by the Extraordinary Workshop, and the medical level that surpasses other countries, the Imperial Army directly has a military that crushes other countries. Strength… I still underestimate them. ‘

Chen Lun couldn’t help but shook his head and said with emotion.

Although he participated in the western war in his previous life, he always fought with the wind. Every battle almost swept away Anlong’s army with a crushing posture, so that he failed to see some countermeasures hidden by the imperial army.

Now after personally experiencing this ambush counterattack, he reassessed the imperial army in his heart, but it was accompanied by deeper doubts.

‘Since the imperial army is so powerful, why is it still in Waterloo, the bridgehead of Hercule? Is it because of overconfidence? Judging from the character of General Vance, perhaps this is really possible. ‘

Chen Lun thought to himself.

After a while, he came to the command room, which is the tent where General Vance was. Under the gaze of several guards, Chen Lun asked his subordinates to wait outside, and walked in by himself.

General Vance and the top military officials were still the same as before, sitting behind the table, and the clergy from the Moon Church and the Hailing Regiment sat opposite each other.

As soon as he entered, Chen Lun heard the middle-aged male priest of the Hailing regiment expressing his dissatisfaction to the general in a deep voice:

“General, the fact is that, as we said, there are indeed enemy ambushes in the canyon… Our Tripartite Church reminds you at the same time, why do you insist on going your own way?”

“Priest Kuni, first of all thank you for your warning…”

General Vance nodded with a smile.

“But it’s not that we haven’t taken your advice into account, but after discussion at the headquarters, it’s the best choice to continue going deep into the canyon… We only lost 122 people in this encounter, and all the wounded have been treated and regained their fighting strength. , but the enemy lost 750 men, none of them escaped.”

As he spoke, he tapped on the table lightly, his face becoming more serious.

“That’s Anlong’s Death Squad, carrying supernatural objects with hiding effects, and a large amount of high explosives! It’s a big victory to wipe out 750 people! How many times can the entire Anlong send out such teams ?”

The priests of the Hailing Regiment frowned.

General Vance continued:

“It stands to reason that I don’t need to explain anything to you, but for the sake of the relationship between the two of us, I think it is necessary to tell you…War, with victory as the goal, by unscrupulous means, and the Imperial Army is particularly good at this, please keep your responsibilities in mind, Priest Kuni, it involves strategy and decision-making, and you have no right to interfere.”

Cooney sighed lightly, and nodded sullenly.

At this time, General Vance turned his head to look at Chen Lun again, and asked lightly:

“Consul Jack, what’s the matter this time?”

“It’s nothing, I just want to know about the battle situation, and by the way, ask about the next action, what do we need to do?”

Chen Lun did not sit down, but stood at the door and said calmly.

General Vance nodded slightly.

“You can ask Major Fuller about the specific situation of the battle. His subordinates have already completed the statistics. As for the next action… we need to wait until the troops have completely entered the Kerr Plain before we can inform you. Temporary deployment.”

“Ok, I see.”

Chen Lun nodded and left the tent.

He turned around, but he was very clear in his heart that in fact, the military did not have any requirements for the Church of the Seven Gods, it only needed to deal with the enemy’s superhumans and all kinds of treacherous supernatural means… Besides, the military did not want They meddle in everything.

It is the best way to get along with each other.

The time changed, and it was the morning four days later.

About eleven o’clock, the imperial army had already crossed the Kerr Plain, and a spacious river across the line of sight could be seen from a distance.

And the river width of hundreds of kilometers also gives people a feeling that the other end is far away.

In the past few days, the imperial army has been attacked by Anlong’s side several times in the plain, and Chen Lun represents the Generous Council, and the clergy of the Hailing Regiment of the Moon Church also fulfilled their duties and warned General Vance in advance.

However, in these encounters, General Vance did not retreat, but chose to be tough… The result was as expected by Chen Lun. Even though the imperial army was passive every time, it was a big victory every time.

These several attacks have caused Anlong’s side to lose thousands of death squads, and countless extraordinary objects and weapons and equipment…while the Imperial Army’s side only killed more than 400 people.

The black technologies from the Imperial Extraordinary Workshop emerged one after another, allowing Chen Lun to refresh his cognition once again. Many extraordinary things that he had never seen in his previous life were used extremely skillfully in the hands of the Imperial Army, reversing many obvious disadvantages.

However, during this period, Chen Lun informed General Vance and the Imperial Command of some of the information he knew under the pretext of “results of observation and deduction”… He said that there was a reconnaissance arranged by the superhuman Anlongfang on the Kerr Plain As an early warning method, the actions of the imperial army were clearly detected by the enemy.

General Vance actually saw the clues. After all, the enemy’s attacks came one after another, and he obviously knew their trajectory…Therefore, the general canceled the strategy of “crossing the river”, but directly chose to turn to the bridgehead of Hercule , intending to use the simplest and most brutal way to attack head-on.

As far as the strength of the imperial army is concerned, there is no problem at all.

This is also Trisur’s strong self-confidence.

More than two hours passed.

Chen Lun sat in the carriage, opened the curtain, and saw the Benavides River in the front right through the window. A stone bridge stood quietly, and a huge fortress was connected to the other end.

The solid and thick high wall is dark gray, and small bunkers stand on the high wall like candles on a cake. Many large-caliber metal cannons were placed on the notches of the city wall, like fierce eyes, staring at the imperial army by the river.

The city wall is surrounded by thick wooden spikes, and many Anlong’s troops can be seen vaguely patrolling the high wall, with erratic flames.

After a while, the carriage stopped.

Golov lifted the curtain and said softly:

“Mr. Jack, the messenger has conveyed the order, the imperial army is preparing on the spot, and will officially start attacking the bridgehead in the evening.”

“Well, I see.”

Chen Lun nodded.

He got up from the sofa and turned to look at the rest of his subordinates.

“According to the plan I told you before departure, we can start to act.”

“Yes, Mr. Jack.”

Everyone agreed in unison.

They then stepped out of the carriage and escaped into the spirit world.

Although Chen Lun had expected that the superhumans from Anlong’s side would take precautions in the spiritual world near the bridgehead, he believed that Floyd and the others could solve this little trouble.

Sitting alone in the carriage and meditating for a while, Chen Lun began to operate on the panel, and then issued a task to the more than 2,000 circus players who accompanied the army—

【Sub-quests: Western War/Battle of Hercule Bridgehead/Siege Battle! 】

Mission description: You have chosen to follow Jack Speight, the Consul of the Generous Parliament, to accompany the army on an expedition, and your primary goal is to find ways to break through the blockade of the Hercule Bridge and break into the bridgehead!

Task Reward: Successfully break into the bridgehead, get 5000 experience points, 80 silver nobility and 20 contribution points. (Additional killing rewards: enemy soldiers or ordinary players, 100 experience points; enemy Sequence Nine Transcendents, 500 experience points and 1 contribution point; enemy Sequence Eight Transcendents, 1000 experience points and 2 contribution points Spend.)

“Wow! Here it comes!”

Behind the cluster of tents, Dongyang and others were sitting in a tent. Goutoujin was the first to notice the prompt from the panel, stood up and shouted.

“Brothers, the task is coming!”

Dongyang carefully scanned the task description, smiled slightly, and chose to accept it.

Then, he turned his head to look at everyone.

“After the war starts, let’s follow behind the army to see the situation, figure out the enemy’s attack mode, and then discuss and study… In short, it is only a matter of time before we break into the bridgehead. This task reward is a must. After all, these few days We also know the strength of the Celestial Empire Army, some are ridiculously strong…so what we have to do is to minimize the number of resurrections.”

“Dongyang is right.”

Chen Xi nodded in agreement, and she immediately looked at Polaris.

“During this process, if you encounter an NPC of the enemy’s Sequence Eight, please notify everyone in the chat room. Let’s trap the opponent together and create a single-handed opportunity for Polaris.”

“Okay, that’s it!”

Su Keying waved her fist in agreement.

Polaris looked at the crowd, took a deep breath, and walked out of the tent with firm eyes.

the other side.

Chen Lun had already stepped out of the carriage alone. He lowered the brim of his hat, and with a silver cane, he quietly passed many temporary tents, passing by the imperial soldiers.

For some reason, these soldiers seemed to ignore his existence, but reflexively avoided Chen Lun’s body and gave way by themselves.

After a while.

In the headquarters tent not far away, a human-shaped shadow appeared behind General Vance, and it made a low voice:

“Vance, the head of the army of the Generous Council, the consul named Jack is leaving the camp and heading west to the river.”

General Vance looked down at the documents and the map, and waved his hands.

“Let him go, if it doesn’t affect the Imperial Army, don’t worry about it.”

“Oh, I see.”

The shadow fell and retracted into Vance’s shadow.

River Benavides.

Chen Lun took off the black glove on his left hand [Palm Moonlight], bent down and scooped up a little water with his hand, put it to his mouth and took a sip. The cold and slightly sweet taste made him feel that the water quality here is excellent, but it is a pity that the artillery fire and the sea of ​​corpses and blood will eventually pollute…

Immediately, he took out a moldy, dirty glove and put it on his left hand.

This is the [A-level creep – Desire to Decay] that he applied for from the headquarters of the Generous Council. It can suppress the target’s desire to fight, kill and conflict on a large scale, and can even affect the reaction of firearms, but it is only for ordinary people. And things, the effect on the mysterious power will be greatly reduced, so that this strange thing is rarely called.

During the Scarlet Battle last time, Chen Lun had already memorized some strategic-level spooky information from his church, so when thinking about countermeasures, he immediately thought of it.

Chen Lun raised his left hand and snapped his fingers lightly.

Countless dark green particles emerged from his hands, scattered like dust or spores, and flew towards the Hercule Bridge and the fortress.

They avoid people’s sight, and seem to have traveled to the gap between the world and the spiritual world. Even if they fly past the eyes of the soldiers of the Empire and Anlong, no one notices them.

Until it flies to the countless powder kegs hidden in the stone bricks under the bridge, the Benavides River bed, the basement of the Hercule bridgehead, and the load-bearing stone pillars…

The dark green particles submerged in the gunpowder, took root, germinated, until weird mold grew…
