In front of him was a narrow canyon with a heavily fortified entrance, called Beacon Canyon. Beacon Canyon was a medium-sized 0VS0 battlefield that could be joined by level 1 characters. Countless novice players had fought their way through it, gradually developing skilled combat skills, gaining honors and improving their military ranks.
The geographical location of this canyon is very special. The two ends of the canyon are the plains of the two countries. That is to say, once the enemy country breaks through the canyon's fortifications, it can easily destroy the city and capture the stronghold. Even the most stupid king would not like to open the gates of his country and let the enemy's army come to visit at will. Therefore, the countries at both ends of the canyon are determined to seize control of this canyon.
Since then, the smoke of gunpowder in this canyon has almost never stopped. The two countries launched an extremely brutal and long tug-of-war over this issue. Countless soldiers sacrificed their precious lives in this beacon canyon for this never-ending battle.
As the enemy launched a fierce attack, the garrison in Beacon Fire Canyon could only send an emergency request for reinforcements once again. However, it would take several days for the elite troops in the rear to arrive, and they could not solve the urgent problem at the moment. Therefore, Lin Feng and other new recruits were recruited as reserve soldiers to the Beacon Fire Canyon where the war was in full swing without any training, to fill the vacuum period of shortage of troops.
When Lin Feng arrived at the frontline, he found that, just as the mysterious locksmith had said, there was not only a shortage of soldiers, but also weapons and supplies. He and the other two players were divided into a combat team of three. Each team was only given one weapon. If they were lucky, they would be given a spear, a shield, or even a sword. If they were unlucky, they would only be given a bow and arrow and a dagger.
Why is it considered bad luck to be assigned a long-range weapon like a bow? Because the bad quartermaster distributed the bow and arrows separately. Many players who were assigned a bow could only sigh that a powerful bow is useless without arrows, and had to negotiate or even trade with players who had arrows in order to get arrows to improve their own combat power.
The luck of Lin Feng's team was as bleak as a total solar eclipse. The captain only received a worn-out dagger with several gaps. Lin Feng felt that the dagger had been out of date for a long time. It looked so hard to peel an apple, and he didn't know how much effect it would have in battle. But this did not affect Lin Feng's confidence in this battle. He always remembered the famous saying in online games, "There is no strongest profession, only the strongest player." In this battlefield, this saying should be changed to "There is no strongest weapon, only the strongest player."
After the rain in the empty mountains, the 1.6-meter-tall sergeant, who had just received the weapons issued, gathered all his height in his voice and swung his sword and roared at the group of new recruits. He drove these new recruits who had never been on the battlefield to the canyon battlefield outside the fortifications like driving cattle into a slaughterhouse.
The captain also knew that only a few of these new recruits would be able to return alive, but for the sake of national security and stability, sacrifice was essential. The rise and stable development of any country was achieved with the blood and lives of its soldiers. This was an eternal law, except that sacrifices would increase suddenly during times of turmoil and conflict, and would be minimized during times of peace and prosperity.
Players all know that these layers of fortifications are not only used to resist the enemy's powerful attacks, but also to resist those cowardly deserters. Even if you escape to the fortifications, the gates of the fortifications will be tightly closed, and you may even be shot by the bows and arrows of your own guards, so this is destined to be a fierce battle where you can only move forward and not retreat.
As he followed the team into the canyon, Lin Feng was thinking that although one needs to be able to adapt to circumstances and perform on the spot, one also needs to plan ahead and be prepared for any eventuality.
Lin Feng knew that he would soon encounter enemies from the other side after entering the battlefield. Since everyone was a first-level recruit, they would definitely not pay attention to any advanced strategies and tactics. Only by working together and concentrating their strength could they gain the advantage in numbers when facing the enemy. Especially in such a small battlefield where guerrilla warfare is impossible and there are no large-scale killing equipment such as catapults, the advantage of concentrating troops will become more obvious. On the contrary, if they were to fight a guerrilla war by being smart and insist on using advanced tactics such as retreating when the enemy advances and disturbing when the enemy is tired, Lin Feng felt that with the execution ability of these recruits, it would be easy for them to be outsmarted. Imagination is beautiful, but the ending is cruel, and in the end, they can only reap what they have sown.
If after the first round of confrontation, your team has gained momentum, on the one hand, you should let your manpower appropriately pursue the enemy's remnants and defeat, not giving the enemy a chance to breathe and adjust so that the enemy will always be unsteady on their feet, and you should be aggressive and seize the opportunity to form a trend of unstoppable force; on the other hand, the injured players should also repair and recover as soon as possible, so as not to be seized by the enemy to launch a counterattack and reverse the situation.
But even this simplest tactic is easier said than done, and it is not something that can be done easily. Because humans are not robots that execute commands according to programs, the reactions of new recruits after entering the battlefield will vary greatly. Some are cautious and safety first, while others are reckless and aggressive. Soon, the new recruits in their own camp became disconnected and were pulled into a long line of soldiers, which formed a strong contrast with the tactic of concentrating troops that Lin Feng had envisioned. Lin Feng felt helpless when he saw the long line of soldiers, but he did not have the right to command his own camp, so he could only do what a new recruit should do, which was to move forward bravely with the team into the canyon.
In addition to himself, there were two other players in his team. The player who was just assigned to the worn-out dagger was the captain of the three-person team. He had some team awareness and signaled Lin Feng and the other player to stay close to him and not get separated. Lin Feng and the other player also understood the principle that unity is strength, and followed the captain closely, instead of acting without organization and discipline like some other players.
In order to make players develop a sense of teamwork, the game system requires that team members keep a certain distance from the captain after entering the battlefield. Each member of the team will gain a "team aura" buff, which will increase their own attack and defense power to a certain extent, and can significantly improve their own combat effectiveness. At the same time, the team captain will also gain a stackable "captain aura". The more team members there are in the range, the more layers of the captain's aura will be stacked, and the captain's combat effectiveness will also be enhanced. In this battlefield, because it is organized into teams, the captain's aura can only be stacked up to two layers. Even so, facing some casual novice players, some captains' auras cannot be fully stacked, and the battle will naturally be affected.
Lin Feng's team was in the middle of the line of troops, and they followed the crowd of new recruits and gradually quickened their pace, because at this time the enthusiastic vanguards of the two camps had already been engaged in close combat.
What makes the game different from reality is that you can die and come back to life repeatedly, especially on the battlefield where death is commonplace. Only by putting life and death aside and daring to fight can you gain higher honors, quickly upgrade your military rank, and obtain rich battlefield rewards and valuable experience.
Of course, there are also some sleazy battlefield masters, who either go around the enemy's back and shoot once before switching places to play a guerrilla war, or set traps and ambush the enemy on the main roads that the enemy must pass through. Their total number of kills may not be as many as those masters who charge into battle and fight hard, but they will make a high contribution to their own camp with a very high battle-to-loss ratio, so as to quickly gain honor.
This can be regarded as an emerging school on the battlefield. If this tactical routine is not studied in depth, the main force of a dozen or even dozens of people can easily be led by one or two such despicable masters. At the very least, it will delay the opportunity to fight, and at worst, it will even fall into the opponent's trap and be constantly eroded by the opponent like peeling off silk from a cocoon, until it suffers complete losses and loses the entire battle.
But masters are short-lived, while tigers are like flowers blooming everywhere. The hot-blooded real men in our camp and the iron-blooded tough guys in the opposing camp are the ones who move forward bravely and make progress.
Some were squad leaders, leaving their team members behind by two blocks, and rushed forward alone with the weapons they were given, slashing and killing. They were more Spartan than the 300 Spartans, and more Genghis Khan than Genghis Khan during the Western Expedition, demonstrating their unrivaled dominance, and that was all. Others were fearless even with bare hands, leaving their captains behind by several blocks, and rushed directly into the enemy's crowd with the vigor and momentum of tearing apart the devils with bare hands in the anti-Japanese dramas, ready to fight ten alone. The result was naturally also awe-inspiring and courageous spirit...
The captain of Lin Feng's team is called Half God Half Immortal. Although this player's character name is quite mysterious, he is very timid, which forms a strong contrast with the players fighting on the front line. Lin Feng feels like he is a new player who has just started playing online games. He is very cautious in the game, fearing that he will regret it for the rest of his life if he makes a wrong move. But it's better to be cautious, which is much better than those new gamers who are just born calves but are very aggressive.
This demigod, demigod, was running quickly with Lin Feng and another player named Yanyu Xiaoyao, but when they were about to reach the front line where the two armies were fighting, he suddenly stopped and observed.
"Captain, what are you looking at?" Before Lin Feng could speak, Yanyu Xiaoyao asked with a puzzled look on his face.
"Let me observe the situation first. If our camp does not have the advantage, it is better for us not to rashly join the battle." The demigod responded as he looked at the crowd fighting fiercely in front of him.
"Then which camp do you think will have the greater advantage, Captain?" Yanyu Xiaoyao stood beside the demigod and carefully observed the situation at the front line, just like a general inspecting.
"Both sides are evenly matched, but it seems that our side is a little weak, and I don't know if we can hold on!" The demigod frowned, thinking that the situation on the front line was a little grim and the situation was not optimistic. (To be continued)
