Starting from Zero

"Retreat, retreat!" I commanded everyone to start retreating loudly. The enemy has gradually approached us, and it will be troublesome if we don’t retreat and hang with the enemy.

Seeing that we were going to retreat to the labyrinth lane behind, the enemy immediately rushed faster. Although they tried very hard to kill us before we hid in the tunnel, our battle steps were planned in detail, and even a simple retreat was not as simple as it seemed. The enemy who had caught up halfway suddenly fell into the trap, and after losing a lot of people, they continued to chase it, but unfortunately we had already entered the passage.

The enemy army lacking command personnel has no suspicion about this maze, so they chased us all the way into the maze formation. Several cavalrymen chased me all the way, and a crossroad appeared in front of me. I didn't turn a turn, but rushed straight ahead. Of course, the cavalrymen chased me and ran forward. But when they just arrived at the intersection, the two magic puppets suddenly rushed out one by one. I didn't even bother to look back, I knew the result when I heard that scream.

In another place, a group of enemy cavalry focused on one of our people, and the chase broke out again. On a straight line, our people quickly ran over, but a steel bar suddenly stretched out from the side and inserted directly into the corresponding hole on the opposite wall. The steel bar was just high enough to hang the cavalry but couldn't touch the horse, so after a patter of oh la la, the horses all rushed over, but the cavalry fell off. The cavalry climbed up from the ground and shook their heads to restore freshness. Suddenly a small door was opened on the side of the passage, and several people rushed out to attack them. When the troops behind catch up, only one spot of blood and the chopped down invisible cavalry were seen, while their horses stood in a daze.

A large number of enemy infantry rushed into the lane and started chasing our troops, but when we ran to a passageway, our people suddenly collapsed together, and a sledgehammer was thrown over their heads, leaving almost no enemy behind. All survived were beaten out.

Such tricks are constantly being staged in the tunnels. It is said that such battles should not appear in the battle of the regular army, but we still let it happen. There are two reasons why it went so smoothly. The first reason is that it was planned a long time ago. We arranged a large number of snipers and Japanese ninjas to assassinate the enemy commanders before the war started. The Japanese guild also bought a few cities, and they also had to contribute their efforts to defend the castles. Although they were not happy with me in commanding this battle, the Japanese had to send a large number of ninjas to help in the assassination for their own benefit. The direct consequence of this plan is that when the Indonesian troops rushed into the labyrinth, there were no middle and lower-level commanders. These soldiers only knew that the charge did not consider other issues at all. As a result, our plan was successfully implemented. Another reason for success this time is that I entered Demon Realm and killed the other commander. Originally, this was not part of our plan, but it happened by chance. Because there is no commander-in-chief, the enemy has no tactics at all.

The enemy in the passage keeps advancing, but as the distance deepens, the number of their personnel decreases. Tens of thousands of enemies suddenly emerged from hundreds of alleys at the same time, and they entered a street-like place. These people got excited immediately, and they thought they had finally broken through the maze. At this time I showed up on the street with a few very fast players, and then I pretended to be very panicked and shouted: "Ah! No, the enemy has come in!" After shouting, I turned around and ran. Almost all the players around me are cavalry types, which are selected a long time ago. Those of us fled at an unimaginable speed, and the enemies behind us became more excited. They yelled and chased after us.

This street specially reserved for them is very long, and it is sloping, the slope is not small. The enemy didn't care about it. They screamed excitedly when they saw the dawn of victory, but it was a pity that this was not their way to victory, but our super trap.

The enemy chased after him and stopped suddenly, because they found that we were not running anymore. This seems to be a dead end, with a wall behind it blocking the way, and there are no passages on both sides, it is completely blocked. "Hahahaha! You are running! Are you hurt by your own labyrinth?" Those Indonesian regional guards laughed at us unscrupulously without showing their pride.

We all pretended to be flustered when we were chased into a dead end. The enemy laughed and approached us, but when they were less than ten meters away from us, we suddenly regained our composure. "Haha! Goodbye everyone!" I smiled and waved to them, and then flashed into a channel that suddenly appeared on the side with the players. After we entered, the passage suddenly disappeared as it appeared.

The enemy hadn't figured out what was going on, and suddenly there was a click, and the original high wall that prevented us from escaping suddenly fell down. All the enemies were dumbfounded. Behind that wall was a huge roller like a roller of a road roller. This cylindrical roller was made of steel and the outside was densely packed with steel nails. The drum is completely solid, almost 8,000 tons, with the steel ingots, the destructive power is amazing.

Now that the enemy knows why this passage is slanted, they also know how stupid they are to chase it, but everything is too late. Two magic figures opened the holders on both sides at the same time, and then another 100 magic figures pushed behind the drum at the same time. The huge roller at first can't stop when it moves, because it is downhill, and the roller rolls faster and faster. The enemies below have already started to flee. This time they played at a speed more than twice as fast as when they chased us and rushed past the way they had always been, but this speed still seemed not enough.

The weight of the roller is eight thousand tons. The earth shook and the mountain quivered. Except for the enemies who are being chased, the other enemies are wondering what is so big, but they will soon be able to I know what it is.

In an instant, the maze array was all taken into the ground, and the streets of the city became a large straight passage. The enemies were still surprised by the maze that was suddenly closed, but when they were pulled back to their minds by the loud sound, they saw a large group of companions rushing towards them. These people saw their companions running so vigorously and looked towards them behind them, so they also joined the running team.

A scene of tens of thousands of people running wildly was staged on the streets of Samarinda. The slowest of these people may have broken the world record, but unfortunately the big guy behind is faster than them. Even a tank weighing 8,000 tons can be crushed into a discus. These soldiers don't think about anything except running. The cavalry still has a mount anyhow, and the wizard and the warrior are the most unlucky. Those mages were the slowest, and the steel road roller swept across the mages and left a patch of red on the ground.

The second-to-last heavy infantry was quickly overtaken. After the superroller rushed through the entire team, a lot of red marks and some metal flakes were left on the ground. Those were originally armors and weapons. It's a cake. Although the cavalry ran fast, they were still a bit slower than the drum. We only heard the sound of pinching flies, and the cavalry and their horses turned into red fragments.

The roller rushed all the way to the city wall and then bounced up and flew out of the city wall before stopping. There was only a bloody ground left in this straight line in the city. With a cry of oh la la, the labyrinth array rose again, but the enemy dared not rush. Who can guarantee that there is only one roller?

After this super horrible smasher plan, the enemy’s remaining forces are already less than 3 million, including Indonesian players, which can make up about 4 million, which means that the number of enemies now Close to twice ours. It still looks like there are many enemies, but because the firepower between the two sides is too great, if the number is less than three times ours, the enemy's total strength is already inferior to ours.

"It's time to fight back." I gestured to the rear, and a player immediately lit a small box next to it. After hearing only three beeps of pēng pēng pēng, the red, white and blue signal flare flew into the sky.

Boom boom boom boom. The naval guns in the fleet began to ring continuously, and we were about to fight back. The long spear formation flew over our heads with bundles of bombs, and a flash of fire flashed from the enemy's position.

"The counterattack begins!"

"Kill!"

Our big counterattack was too sudden, the enemy was just scared by the super road roller, this time we suddenly fought back and completely confused them. The so-called defeat is like a mountain. As long as deserters appear on the battlefield, people will continue to join the deserters, and they will eventually turn into a big retreat. This is why the army destroys the deserters so much. Now the enemy has been frightened, and the middle and low-level officers have been killed collectively. No one has urged these soldiers to fight. at first rushed into the city with inertial thinking. After seeing the terrifying situation, some people began to flee, and some of the less courageous immediately followed. As the number of people fleeing continues to increase, the enemies who don't know the situation behind become more chaotic.

The fierce shelling and the driving force of the deserters, coupled with our massive counterattack, the enemy has completely lost his judgment. The total collapse finally appeared, and the enemies dropped their weapons and began to flee backwards. Since the NPCsystem of "Zero" has been upgraded to humanization, the fear of death has also appeared in the consciousness of NPCs. In order to survive, they have begun to flee wildly. Those Indonesian players know what is going on, but they can't stop it. matter. Although these NPCs attacked the city with them, they are only in a cooperative relationship, and there is no relationship between superiors and subordinates, and players cannot command the area guards.

The retreat of NPC makes Indonesian players very depressed, and our side is also depressed. The original plan was to wipe out the enemy forces, but now that it is good, the enemy will not fight us at all, rushing out of the combat area all the way and then opening the space door and running out of nothing. Although we chased the enemy's tail and slashed the belt and killed it all the way, in the end, almost two million area guards returned to Demon Realm. These guards failed this time only because of a problem with their command system, not a problem with their own strength, so they could not stop us from running away. Fortunately, only two million ran away. It shouldn't be caused too serious consequences.

Although all the NPCs ran away, the Indonesian players did not retreat. We stopped chasing after we chased the entrance of Demon Realm, and we couldn’t get out of that place. We didn’t want to do it for the two million enemies. Funeral. After giving up our intention to enter the Demon Realm, we switched teams and started hunting down the Indonesian players. The Chinese have a saying called a wise man knows better than to fight when the odds are against him, but the Indonesians don’t seem to believe this. Fight to the death with us after multiple disadvantages appear at the same time. These one million players are not enough to watch, we almost forced these people to die. In the encirclement of a large group of devil beasts, American players kept raising their guns and shooting, like a massacre. Those who were not interested in this had left early and went back to clean up the city. The agreement before the war was that after the battle, everyone would repair the city together and pay for the maintenance costs. After all, this battle was for everyone.

This battle was fought beautifully, and our tactics were also very successful. When the enemy left Demon Realm, there were a total of 12 million regular troops, not including the devil beast and players. When they returned, there were only two million regular troops, and the devil beasts and players were all dead. It can be said that the enemy is completely injured this time.

Compared to the enemy, our personnel losses are almost negligible. From start to finish, we have killed more than 20,000 players, which is about one-tenth of the total force. In terms of devil beasts and city guards, almost all the losses of our guild, but the guards can be automatically resurrected, this is not a loss, and afterwards, all participating guilds will have to pay to compensate for our losses.

Although the personnel loss this time is not large, the material loss is terrible. Our guild lost a city in the sky, and the guilds agreed to share this loss. In addition, our guild spent 30 million crystal coins worth of shells and bombs in this battle, and this will also be reimbursed. In many battleships, even the rifling of the artillery has been smoothed, and even the barrels of the guns have to be replaced.

In addition to our guild, other guilds have also paid a lot of material prices, but everyone can still bear it. The biggest headache for everyone is Samarinda. This city is no longer as simple as repair. In the battle, more than 80% of the city was destroyed. In terms of repair, it is basically equal to reconstruction. The things in the city are simply out of service, and they have to be replaced.

After the battle, everyone gathered for a short meeting, thinking that the responsibilities had been allocated before the battle. This meeting simply clarified the division of labor and ended in a few minutes. After everyone was assigned the task, they started to work on their own. I first met Isinger, and there should be a third battle after that. We don't know the specific situation and we must go to Vina to inquire about it and make preparations early.

It was early in the morning when I arrived at Isengard, but Vina didn't need to sleep anyway, so I didn't have to worry about disturbing her. Vina didn't seem surprised to see me walk into her room. "It's over?" she asked flatly.

"Don't you wonder why I came back so soon?"

"What's so strange?" Vina seems to think this is as it should be by rights.

"The enemy is many times more than us. Isn’t it strange that I came back so soon?"

"I might be surprised if your fleet doesn’t have so many cannons, but now I’m not surprised at all. You must have been bullying people without artillery from beginning to end. The regional guards in Indonesia probably suffered heavy losses by your bombing, so when they rushed into the city, there was almost no one. You must be violent afterwards. The counterattack resulted in annihilation of the enemy. Am I right?"

"I have to admire your reasoning ability, but unfortunately you guessed part of it wrong."

"Huh? Am I wrong?" Vina finally became curious this time. "What's wrong?"

"The front is the same, but in the end there are some differences. Indonesia's regional guards were not completely wiped out. They suddenly collapsed when we launched a counterattack, and then we chased them all the way. At the entrance of Demon Realm, these guys still have more than two million back to Demon Realm. We didn’t chase in because we were afraid that we could not get in or out. The other party also closed the entrance of Demon Realm."

"Even fleeing. What an accident! What are their commanders doing? What about the supervising team? How come they flee suddenly?"

"This speaking of which is an accident. I was sucked into Demon Realm to protect other players. As a result, their commanders and vanguard generals were killed in Demon Realm. At the beginning of the whole battle, the opponent had no supreme commander. As for the supervising team and the lower-level commanders, those were assassinated by us, and the opponent’s soldiers were basically In spontaneous battles, no one commanded them at all."

"No wonder!" Vina nodded and said: "If there is no commander, it would be easy to explain."

" Na, we let go of 2 million enemies this time, will there be any problems in the future battle?"

Vina thought about it and said: "The battle will be more difficult in the future, but the problem It is. shouldn't be too serious."

"Why?"

"I told you before that the area guards defended three times, and they didn't come at the first chance. , This attack is actually the second time. According to the regulations, the number of troops sent for the second time is twice that of the first time. The enemy you encountered this time is twelve million, that is to say the first time. The attacking enemy should be about 6 million. The number of troops sent for the third time in the regulations should be the sum of the first two, which means that the maximum number of troops sent for the third time is 18 million people."

"I'm dizzy! Eighteen million did you say it's okay?"

"Let me finish!" Vina explained: "This military dispatch rule limits the first and second The proportion of troops sent to the total force. If you only occupy one city in Indonesia, of course, you will send more troops three times in order than the previous one. But you occupy the whole territory, and the number of troops sent should be the regional guards of the whole country. That is to say, the 18 million regional guards should be the entire defense force of Indonesia. The regional guards and city guards can automatically refresh the replenishment number, but the speed of this replenishment is not to fill one immediately after death. This takes time. The total strength of the Indonesian regional guards is 18 million, and 12 million were sent out for this battle, which means that Demon Realm has a total of 6 million troops. You put two million and ran back. , Then the enemy has become 8 million. Counting the additional troops during this period, it is not bad that they can make up 9 million for the next attack. The enemy sent twelve million troops in the first battle, but you killed ten million and ran away two million. Next time, you only have to deal with less than nine million troops. Can't you stop it? "

"Of course I can't stop it! The main success this time was to destroy the opponent's command system, and the opponent won't be so easily fooled next time. Moreover, we have already shown many tactics to the enemy, and the enemy should not be so easily fooled next time. In addition, our Windmill City helped a lot in this battle, but the Windmill City has crashed. We can't drive the second one before the next battle. How do we defend it? "

"It seems that you still have a lot of problems to solve! "

"That's why I have such a headache! "I leaned on the recliner and looked at the ceiling and said, "The next attack will only take 24 hours. We may not have time to restore the city's functions." In the next battle, don't say that the strategy will be invalid. There will be no city wall. We really don't know how to defend it! "

Vina suddenly came over and leaned against me and said: "Aren't you usually bad?" Why did it suddenly get better this time? "

"Huh? "Vina suddenly changed her style and made me a little confused. "What do you mean?" "

"Unexpectedly? "Vina said: "Give you some hints!" The first reminder, what does the guarding power of a country have to do with? The second hint, how does the utilitarian theory you often use deal with this kind of thing? "

"Utilitarian theory? "I thought for a while and suddenly realized. "Yes! Why didn't I think of it! Damn it! haha, Vina, you are so smart! "

After bidding farewell to Vina, I rushed back to Indonesia happily. Rose and the others are directing the reconstruction work in Samarinda. Seeing my excitement, Rose and Eagle know that I must be resolved. It’s a solution. Let’s gather together and ask me how to deal with the third NPC revenge.

I took them out of Samarinda first. There are too many people over there, so this plan is not allowed. Outsiders know it. Everyone in Garland City, it’s easier to find a secret place in our own city.

In a small Conference Hall, I said to them: "The so-called method That’s..."
