The follow-up message has not yet been sent, but Luo Ji has clearly felt the critical situation in the northern border.

If he can't stop those eight armored beasts, then his entire northern territory will probably fall.

This wave of risks was too great for Luo Ji to hesitate.

In the original world of civilization, Zhang William had to take Ysera to defend against the Hydra and the Dark Elves. However, in this situation, in this battlefield of all-out war, the Hydra and the Dark Elves could not survive at all.

Does not exist. In other words, they can be temporarily relieved from this position!

He quickly issued an order and ordered Zhang William to take the elf dragon Ysera to the north to help.

At the same time, now that enemies from all three sides have appeared, the large forces originally gathered in the Eastern and Western Borders can be mobilized.

Arrange things quickly one by one.

Luo Ji obviously didn't expect that he would encounter a behemoth unit like an armored beast in a silver-level battle, which could almost ignore the damage from artillery fire and mines.

This forced him to add a new research and development project to the Ordnance Research Department, which had been busy with the research and development of various weapons recently, and that was armor-piercing bullets!

Luo Ji The types of artillery shells currently used by the artillery force are typical high-explosive shells. In this era, under normal circumstances, high-explosive shells are much more effective than armor-piercing shells.

Armor-piercing bullets are generally used to deal with high-defense units, such as armored tanks, steel battleships, etc. However, before this, the demand has been very low and it seems unnecessary, so Luo Ji did not add more to the Ordnance Research Department.

New job.

In the current situation, if you want to deal with the eight giant beasts of the orc civilization, in addition to Ysera, armor-piercing bullets have obviously become an indispensable weapon.

Luo Ji actually had the design drawings for the armor-piercing projectiles released when he opened the box before.

Of course, it's not a high level, it's just a black iron level blueprint that his little black hand took out from the black iron treasure chest.

But in the current situation, he had no better choice, so he just had to make do with it.

Thinking of this, Luo Ji decisively took out the design drawing of the black iron-grade armor-piercing projectile, and then asked Luo Yunxi at the side to send it to the Ordnance Research Department.

During this period, in order to seize the initiative, Lu Yang and Ye Hua announced the matter through newspapers quite simply before the people discovered the news of the fall of Winter Fortress.

After the newspaper was published that day, it undoubtedly caused a violent response.

For a time, it can be said that the entire civilization of the world was discussing this matter.

Regarding the "strategic retreat" of the northern garrison, some people maintain an optimistic attitude and feel that this is a tactical arrangement by their civilized military from all over the world, and there is nothing wrong with it.

But on the other hand, it is inevitable that some people will become worried.

For this reason, at Luo Ji's suggestion, the newspaper arranged another interview.

Of course, the protagonist of this interview was not Luo Ji himself. He pushed Guo Jia, the chief of staff of the military headquarters, to take over. Luo Ji himself had a lot of things to do and had no time to take care of it.

These.

As one of the most senior officials under Luo Ji, Guo Jia was naturally able to handle such a trivial matter with ease.

After the newspaper of this exclusive interview was released, the response from the people was quite good.

Looking at this situation, Lu Yang and the others' preemptive move worked decisively. This 'strategic retreat' did not make the people feel too uneasy. In addition, the military chief of general staff Guo Jia later said

The exclusive interview quickly stabilized people's hearts.

Obviously, the people are still very confident in their civilization of all realms, so these seemingly simple measures can achieve such good results, and everything is based on the "people's heart".

At the same time, on the other side...

Outside the southern border of Wanjie Civilization, Charlie Crombell's expeditionary army slowly pressed forward.

Looking at the forest in front of him, he did not show any hesitation on his face. He saw Charlie Crombell wave his hand, and the soldiers holding oil drums quickly approached the forest.

.

It was obvious that he was planning to repeat his old trick and burn the forest with fire. This would not only prevent him from being ambushed, but also weaken the opponent's terrain advantage.

His move could be said to be quite simple and crude. However, this time, when the soldiers were still a hundred meters away from the outskirts of the mountain forest, an unexpected situation happened suddenly.

A burst of gunfire came from the mountain forest. Under the precise shooting, the bullets flying out of the forest could be said to have exploded the oil barrels in the hands of the soldiers on the spot.

At that moment, the almost zero-range explosion impact and the rapidly spreading flames could be said to have killed those soldiers on the spot.

Even the other soldiers standing around them were severely affected at this moment. They were engulfed by the high-temperature flames on the spot, and were burnt to pieces amidst the shrill screams.

"All troops on alert!!"

Amidst the roar, the Europa army in the distance quickly entered a state of alert.

By the way, it is worth mentioning here that because we had previously learned that the enemy army had an ultra-long range, at this moment, except for the soldiers who came forward to set fire to the forest, the soldiers under Charlie Crombell were

The Europa army was standing almost 1,500 meters away from the mountain forest.

After neatly blowing up the oil barrels and killing the group of soldiers who tried to set fire to the forest, the southern garrison troops hiding in the forest had no intention of coming out.

They are waiting for reinforcements, and it can be said that they are not in a hurry at all.

Not to mention, due to the special environment of the Southern Elf Forest, in addition to a large number of special arms from the Elf tribe, the Southern Garrison troops also have other human soldiers who are also typical mountain field soldiers. They are very good at fighting in the mountains and forests.

Under this premise, how could they give up their terrain advantage?

After all the soldiers he sent were wiped out, the entire battlefield quickly returned to calm.

At this moment, in the military formation of the Europa army, Charlie Crombell, who was under heavy protection, looked slightly ugly.

At this moment, he suddenly missed the catapult that he had eliminated long ago.

At this time, if there was a catapult, he could use the power of the catapult to throw the oil barrel directly.

Of course, as mentioned before, catapults have long been eliminated by the times.

In this way, a flash of thought flashed across Charlie Crombell's eyes. At this time, he seemed to have no other choice...
Chapter completed!
