Chapter 1654: The Mountain Country with No Way Out
The war in the mountain kingdom continues.
In a sense, the Mountain Kingdom was the luckiest and the unluckiest in this war.
Fortunately, their mountain and forest terrain is too disgusting. Those wet woodlands and swamps, combined with the harsh and changeable weather, are a deadly threat to mortal life. Those invaders who are accustomed to living in the ocean did not get away with it.
Unfortunately, due to the effectiveness of their resistance, they were severely punished by the enemy.
".Hurry up and put out the fire. Without this piece of forest land, the Red Mountain Camp will no longer be separated."
"They can't be saved. They are elemental beings. Retreat and go to the next area."
The burning area on the ground continued to spread, and a large amount of elemental flames turned into an unstoppable fire-proof magic.
The invaders who are not good at playing with fire have cultivated many fire masters. They will not cherish the resources of this forest. To them, these are all meaningless obstacles.
Flooding has proven to be of little use, but the simple and crude scorched earth tactics can steadily advance.
"Boom!"
A sudden thunderstorm struck the area, followed by a gathering of dark clouds that were clearly unnatural.
A heavy downpour ensued, and in the storm and dark clouds, angry human faces appeared and disappeared from time to time.
The "Monsoon God" intervened directly, summoning thunder and storms, followed by heavy rain.
In fact, the only five gods of the Mountain Kingdom have been highly active in this war.
And this is not just an ordinary fire-extinguishing rain.
The next moment, time seemed to have reversed. Wherever the raindrops reached, a large number of trees sprang up from the ground, as if all the flames were just a nightmare.
This is not the power of just one god. Another god, "God of Mangkhut and Strong Wind", is also keeping an eye on this war.
Along with them came the gods' sons and guards.
The personal involvement of the two gods and their messengers also meant that the ninth-rank quasi-god fishman who had been restrained by them and constantly struck by lightning could not be intercepted. It rushed directly into the guarding side and began to kill.
However, it still has to face countless ambushes and attacks from powerful opponents.
Soldier against soldier, general against general, king against king, god against god, he had not even had a few seconds to enjoy himself before multiple equal "overlords" intercepted him. Unless the strategic balance was broken, unless the advanced combat power of one side was defeated, it would be difficult for the top combat power to kill a large number of mortals.
That kind of massacre between the strong and the weak often only occurs on two battlefields with a huge gap between them, but obviously, if this were the case, the war would have ended long ago.
Mortals fought against murlocs, giants brawled against local demonic beasts, and precious void rays were sniped to death by hidden guns.
The king was stopped by another king, and the overlords tore each other apart in the sky. Even the king did not dare to touch the battlefield of a small number of quasi-gods and top overlords.
There was no restraint, no fake fighting, no tacit understanding. The two races fought for survival and tried their best to wipe out each other.
Logically speaking, the fishmen, who have at least level one or two combat power, should have an advantage in low-end battles, but the reality is just the opposite.
The main combat force is not even human warriors who were sometimes trees and sometimes stones, but real jungle killers - a large number of drones and mechanical dogs.
Black and gray drones floated slowly in the forest, carrying light machine guns equipped with biological toxins and armor-piercing warheads, ticking non-stop from beginning to end.
They were destroyed one by one, but the cost has dropped to less than three thousand for a light firepower armed drone. God knows how many tens of thousands of them are stored in this forest. In fact, the fish people have destroyed at least hundreds of thousands of them, but it seems that there are more and more on the opposite side, as if it were a magic trick.
"boom!"
What is even more deadly is the mechanical dog that moves at high speed on the road.
These things cost 6,000 yuan each. They attack with machine guns while pouncing on the approaching fishmen, and then.
"Boom!!"
The mechanical dog has been updated for many generations, but after repeated trials of failed models such as the armor-piercing type, the white-blade type, and the poison-attached type, this simple and crude original version with explosives has become the most popular.
A large amount of iron sand scattered in all directions. This is a surface-to-air weapon more vicious than any armor-piercing bullet.
For the fishmen, who are already fragile and have no armor, these are no different from bullets. They will just penetrate or flow into their bodies. And for them who have also been infected with the biological poison, being hit basically means death.
Flowers of death unfolded on the ground, and these mechanical dogs that had no biological reactions were painted green. Even high-level combat forces could not lock onto these troublesome things in an instant. They jumped out from every corner of the jungle, bushes, underground, and trees, and there was no way to defend against them.
"Boom!"
When the troops on the ground were defeated or even killed, and the upper part could not be conquered, the war would naturally come to an end.
"retreat"
Finally, one overlord couldn't stand the siege anymore and chose to leave.
These attacking armies were originally a "gathering of warlords", and when a "deserter" appeared, the others naturally seized the opportunity to run faster.
Soon, the battlefield returned to calm again, with only the flames burning slowly and someone sobbing from time to time.
The warriors cleaned up the battlefield numbly and quickly. The high-level fighters with tired faces returned to the rear to rest and exchanged information with the high-level fighters on duty. Forcing the top professionals to constantly use their abilities is the best way to kill them.
In the forest, on the trees and under the trees, there were people sleeping everywhere. They were so tired, so tired.
When the two sides are unable to crush each other, this is the situation of war, and they consume each other not only the weapons and military force, but also the physical strength and lives of the soldiers.
".How long can we hold out?"
Even the most optimistic warrior can't help but think about this.
This is already the third year of their resistance. Even though the Mountain People are known among the other nations for their warlike abilities and willingness to fight, how long will this war, which seems to have no end, last?
Cleaning up the battlefield, collecting the corpses, and dragging those who can move back for treatment. They did all this numbly and quickly, because no one knew whether the next battle would be within two hours.
The opponent is the other side of the chaotic warlords. They themselves don’t even know what the so-called strategic planning is. It is very likely that another lord will think they can take advantage and just bring a group of people to attack.
".How about adding some more mines?"
There are hundreds of different types of mines from certain places, which have increasingly proven their capabilities.
The invaders are creatures that are good at swimming and naval warfare. They are not used to walking and being alert on land. They will subconsciously forget to guard their feet, and cannot perceive the obviously disharmonious ground conditions, especially in mountainous terrain like the one in the Mountain Country where it is creepy for humans to walk on. Once a landmine explodes, they will be caught in a mess.
However, the mountain people still did not lay mines on a large scale.
“The war will be disastrous”
The Mountain Country, which has experience in war, is familiar with landmines, has used landmines and extremely hates landmines. The consequences of past wars and the even more painful post-war handling have made them realize that landmines are easy to bury, but they are even more brutal in killing their own people, especially civilians, after the war.
"If this continues, we will have no post-war."
Obviously, the war situation no longer allowed them to think too far ahead.
". Let's ask 'over there' for some more. Let's get 100,000 first. They are needed for anti-supernatural reconnaissance." In the end, they made up their minds. They had no ability to think about the post-war period.
