223: Chapter 229 The Swarm? Just Grinding for Experience.
WKL High-Level Conference Room.
The eyes of the WKL officers were all flashing with brilliance.
Through the live broadcast screen, the newly summoned artillery troops were lined up and ready in front of the territory.
That artillery configuration was truly luxurious, earning rounds of cheers throughout the conference room.
In the first two rounds of the Forbidden Area Trial, including this current round, WKL's landing spots were not considered good.
This resulted in them barely passing the first two rounds of the Forbidden Ground, but their ranking had never been high.
Yet this time, they had actually obtained combat power that one could only possess in the Late Stage within just one month!
In the real world, WKL is deeply mired in a war with Bear Country. If they could obtain materialized resources through this trial, they might be able to directly turn the tide of the war!
The screen flickered, and the message sent by the WKL Lord was displayed on the large screen.
The content roughly indicated that WKL would serve as the vanguard to confront Great Qin.
"Heading south to confront Great Qin? Isn't that too dangerous!" an officer said.
"Vietnam Territory has fallen, and the Lord of Australia has surrendered. It feels like Great Qin's strength is not at all on the decline as the Alliance speculated!"
"There is no other way; having taken so many resources from the Alliance, we must certainly pay some price."
"Actually, there is no need to be overly fearful. Vietnam was just a third-rate country to begin with, and Italy is a professional at surrendering. Defeating these two countries cannot demonstrate true strength."
"Moreover, this is an army built by pooling the resources of the Allied nations. Its combat power is at least three months ahead of normal development."
"Even if the first wave of the offensive is blocked by Great Qin, we will have continuous support from the Three-Party Alliance. The advantage is with us!"
"Heh heh, we have 150mm and 200mm heavy artillery. No matter how thick Great Qin's armor is, how many shells can it withstand?"
"Now we even have anti-aircraft machine guns; we can directly intercept Great Qin's shells in the air..."
The more the officers analyzed, the more excited they became. The strength of WKL's combat power was simply too surprising to them.
The day before, they were a weak country without even a single tank, but today they had transformed into an armored army.
This sudden change made them full of confidence.
"Everyone!" the General of WKL stood up.
"For the glory of WKL, march towards Great Qin!!"
"Ura!!"
"Long live WKL!!"
The conference room erupted in cheers.
While everyone was cheering, the General also sent this message to the WKL Lord in the Forbidden Ground.
...
[For the glory of WKL, march towards Great Qin!!]
[WKL Military High Command]
Seeing this message, the WKL Lord was thrilled.
The WKL high command supported him, and the WKL public also supported him.
As long as he took down Great Qin and stabilized WKL's status, he would become a hero for all of WKL!!
"Ura!!!" he shouted, waving his arms.
Just as he was shouting, the entire sky darkened.
The WKL Lord was a bit confused. Could God be frightened by my courage?
"Marshal!! Fog, fog is drifting over!!" the communications officer shouted.
The WKL Lord turned to look behind him, only to see a large mass of gray fog rapidlyattack coming towards the airspace above the territory.
What the hell is this!? The WKL Lord's eyes flickered.
"Marshal!! All outposts in the southwest direction have lost contact, all outposts in the southwest direction have lost contact!!"
Enemy attack! The WKL Lord realized.
His previous surprise and confusion instantly turned into anger.
A full week had passed since Poland Territory was captured.
For this entire week, he had swallowed his pride, cowering in his territory and letting the intruder run rampant.
Now the other party actually dared to push their luck and launch a sneak attack on his territory.
This was simply not taking his glorious Great Qin Empire seriously!!
"All troops, prepare! Form battle lines at the camp!!"
"Set up artillery positions, armored troops move forward 5 kilometers, hold the first and second defensive lines!!"
During the week of cowering in the territory, the WKL Lord had built two defensive lines on the outskirts of the territory.
The lines were composed of reinforced concrete bunkers, surrounding the territory to provide defense.
Under the WKL Lord's orders, the WKL army responded quickly.
Today, he wanted to see exactly which death-seeking troop dared to launch an attack on him!
"Insect Swarm!! The Insect Swarm is attacking!!"
The radio rang, and the first defensive line sent the message.
The WKL Lord raised his binoculars and sure enough, he saw a black line at the limit of his vision.
Is it really just the Insect Swarm? The WKL Lord felt slightly disappointed.
A territorial defensive battle is many times easier to fight than a field encounter.
If it were Great Qin attacking rashly, he could use his troops to catch them off guard or even take them down directly.
Unfortunately, the ones coming were not Great Qin Troops, but the Insect Swarm, just as other lords had speculated.
Everyone knew that the Insect Swarm often won through swarm tactics.
And at this point in time, artillery troops and armored troops were least afraid of swarm tactics.
In field encounters, they might have had a chance, but this kind of defensive battle with set formations and established fire points was nothing but collective suicide for the Insect Swarm.
However, it was not without benefits, the WKL Lord consoled himself.
At the very least, he could use the Insect Swarm to test the power of the artillery troops, and it could also verify whether the Insect Swarm would drop Xenomorphs technology as predicted.
"All troops, prepare! Wait for my command to fire!"
The WKL Lord stared intently at the first row of the insect line in the distance, preparing to let them get closer before firing.
All bunkers were equipped with heavy machine guns, and their firepower could penetrate light armor units.
Once the Insect Swarm got close and the machine guns opened fire, those crazy insects would die in droves, gifting him countless command points.
No wonder Great Qin was able to stay in the lead; fighting this kind of moronic race that only knew how to die certainly allowed for grinding massive amounts of command points!
