Chapter 49: The Broken Soil
In Pointe-Noire, in the hut of the town's management office, Nelson's eyes were red as he looked at the information that his spirit hornbill had just sent.
Beside him, General Edwin's herald stood to Nelson's left, the expression on his face a deep sense of pathos.
Xue Hua stood opposite them, looking at the expressions on the faces of the two, and couldn't help but sigh softly......
Nelson's intelligence reads.
Four hours before the next polar day, Spirit Hornbill scouts confirmed that Midway had been completely destroyed.
Captain Dawson Mahan and a total of 672 professionals in the town were killed in the confrontation with the demon army.
There were 74,528 people in the town, except for more than 5,000 civilians and 20 professionals in charge of escorting them, who escaped before the attack of the demon army began, and the rest of the townspeople, including the administrators.
All fall.
The bloody numbers on the intelligence made Xue Hua a little regretful and helpless.
Because of the tragic situation in Midwaytown, he almost saw the whole thing with his own eyes through the perspective of the monitoring king worm......
To be honest, he hadn't seen the horrors of the army of hell raging. The tragic situation in the first world Kurast Harbour City has made him unable to let go for a long time.
Hundreds of thousands of Kurast residents, less than one percent remained after the war.
The evil deeds inflicted by the demons on human beings will never be repaid even if the entire hell is emptied!
Nelson's fists tightened and loosened, loosened and tightened, the green tendons on his forehead burst out, and the expression on his face was also awe-inspiring, making people wonder if he would draw a knife and slash people in the next moment.
But fortunately, after so many years as the deputy commander-in-chief of the late winter theater, he finally learned how to control his emotions, but the expression on his face has always maintained an iron blue color.
After a few deep breaths, Nelson slowly let go of the love newspaper note that he had almost crushed directly, collected his thoughts, and continued to look down.
There is something else underneath the note.
This section describes the information uncovered by the Hornbill's scouts after venturing deep into the demon-overrun Midwaytown.
The informant wrote on the note: "The demonic forces that entered Midway did not continue their march north, they stopped in the town and began to collect the remains of our victims.
Continuing to investigate further, the Hellcultists were found in the demon forces, and combined with their collection of corpses, it can be concluded that they are probably preparing to use the advantages of the transportation hub in Midway to turn this place into a transfer station and assembly point for their soldiers.
Please send a large army to clean up this place quickly, or the consequences may be unimaginable. ”
After reading the information, the three people in the hut fell silent for a while, and the location of Midway Town is now a big problem on the human side.
It can connect to other theater rear towns such as Frost Valley and Pointe-Noire in the south, and reach the center of the theater hinterland in late winter in the north, and there are no natural hazards or important towns that can be defended during this period.
If the demon side really succeeded in establishing a source transfer station here, I am afraid that the entire late winter war zone would immediately fall into an extremely passive state.
And the most troublesome thing is that now the Frost Valley and the Frost Mining Area are still under attack by the demon army, and the battle situation on both sides is not optimistic.
Nelson really has no one to use now, and the professionals who have gathered in Pointe-Noire and other surrounding towns to support have been integrated by Nelson and sent to Midway for emergency reinforcements.
It's a pity that although they have been rushing frantically, they still haven't been able to help them before the town breaks halfway......
Now, Nelson has reversed the direction of his only force, and let them rush to Frost Valley as fast as they can, so that reinforcements are in place in time before Frost Valley is broken by the demon army!
In addition to this force, all the elite forces in the Late Winter Theater are now gathered on the front line of the Late Winter Fortress, and the demons have now taken over Midway, and Nelson does not dare to risk sending guards and professionals from other towns to reinforce the Frost Valley.
Now for them, the only pieces left on the chessboard were the three people standing in this hut.
"Mr. Xue, you really can't ......" Nelson raised his head to look at Xue Hua, and even had a hint of begging on his face.
“... I'm sorry, but not right now, and believe me, if I let my minions go all out now, I'm going to get the First World in real trouble soon... That's all I can say for now, but my deity is already rushing to the crystal mine with all my might. ”
Xue Hua sighed helplessly, why didn't he want to release the swarm and press all the demonic fragments all over the ground to death in front of their damn demon master?
But he knew that there was still a pair of invisible eyes in the second world watching everything here, and Xue Hua didn't believe that Sarnagar would take any surveillance action on this huge battlefield.
Once you can't hold it back now, then the unlucky one can only be the shelter world, and Sarnaga can easily find out that the owner of the swarm is him Xue Hua!
“... I understand. Nelson nodded, although he didn't know what Xue Hua meant by "very big trouble", but after this period of getting along, he had already seen that Xue Hua was not a person who liked to talk about it.
Since he said that he would bring great trouble to the sanctuary world, it was certainly not groundless.
"In this way, I am the only one who has gone to the Frost Valley... I don't feel at ease with those Black Rock steel-level professionals who have been temporarily assembled, and the speed of support is also very problematic......"
Nelson furrowed his brows and grabbed the silver knife in his hand helplessly.
It's not that he doesn't want to move, it's that he, the commander, is really not moving now.
The enemy has taken up our communications points, bringing most of the rear towns in the late winter theater into attack.
At this time, once he, the commander, leaves, who knows if the other towns will be attacked by the demon forces immediately?
Moreover, Pointe-Noire is now the most defense-emptied of all towns, and most of the professionals in the town have been transferred to support Frost Valley.
In case the demons of Midway suddenly come to attack Pointe-Noire when Nelson leaves, with the current state of Pointe-Noire, I'm afraid it won't even be able to support it for an hour!
So Nielsen is easily immobile.
The other two people in the hut also knew this, and James immediately advised Nelson not to leave easily, otherwise no one would be able to deal with any unexpected situation elsewhere.
But Nelson didn't listen to him, the silver-haired paladin commander just shook his head silently, glanced at Xue Hua, and then picked up his weapon and walked out of the hut.
"Don't worry, Your Excellency Herald, although most of my minions can't move, some of them have special abilities and a few minions can still take advantage of them... At least in terms of intelligence, we are not much different from the Hell side now, so if they want to sneak up on us, it will be a fool's dream! ”
