Astartes of the Bear School

Chapter 630 632. Experimental Battle

 In everyone’s perception, war is pushing the human mind into an increasingly cruel situation.

This Nilfgaardian army in front of us is destined to be abandoned.

Their superiors abandoned them and sent them out in a big way as bait to lure them into action.

 The mission they have been given is to die in their own hands, and then try their best to leave traces so that their own means and strength can be displayed.

 Lan sees this clearly.

 Intelligence is an extremely important resource. An unclear enemy can often make people more uneasy and restless than a powerful enemy.

The huge system of the Nilfgaard Empire began to operate. They used the servant armies and slave legions of the subject countries to fill the number, and were ready to fight a battle with high attrition at any time.

Among them are not only low-value servants and slaves, but also the Nilfgaardians' own soldiers and officers, supporting the command system.

 At that seminar, the issue of participation in magic and war, which was discussed in more depth, also began to be put into practice during this operation.

 A large number of mages were dispatched from the Golden Tower City.

The level of these mages is not very high, and they basically cannot reach the level of opening the portal on their own.

The ability to reach Cintra in a very short time was thanks to the portals opened by several Nilfgaardian archmages in the military camp who were preparing for a large battle.

 But there are so many of them that one can even be assigned to each upper-level officer.

The Empire has never used these "tricksters" so much.

Marshal Menno Kuhoun and his staff integrated all these forces into their own command system. All they had to do was decide how many people to die in a certain battle, and then improve the overall situation. In exchange for information, positions, or other valuable things.

 Many experts in magic have brought guidance to the army, and they have provided many enchanted equipment with strange effects as a supplement.

 Preventing psychic detection and weakening the sense of presence are all aimed at allowing the army's command level to enjoy a safe command environment, thereby ensuring that the overall organization of the army is not disintegrated.

 Simply put, these are all to prevent ‘a person’.

 A target that in the eyes of all Nilfgaardian commanders, the prerequisite is that ‘as long as he discovers the location, it is basically impossible to stop him from killing people’.

 “This is an experimental battle.”

Lincoln stood under the tree and elaborated his thoughts seriously.

"The lives and deaths of these people, and even the baggage they defended, are not the most important things. The most important thing is the traces of the battlefield after the battle."

Lincoln didn’t know how many mages were in this team. This news was told to him by Lan En after using [Spirit Vision] to observe.

Although he didn’t understand how Lan En knew, he somehow had no doubts and used it as a basis to make inferences.

"It seems they have to admit your existence."

 “It should be so.”

Lan En looked at the slowly advancing convoy in the distance and spoke calmly.

The huge body jumped down from the tree branch, but it didn't make much movement when it landed on the ground.

"We can't annihilate them all in this terrain. There must be characters among them who have received the 'observation mission'. Such people will definitely run away with all their strength in the end, and they will be unable to catch up. And in the final analysis, we are A guerrilla, there is no time to clean up the battlefield." Lincoln said solemnly, and took out a notebook from his pocket to record it. It seemed that he had developed a habit when he was a secretary.

　　At the end of the sentence, the half-grown boy raised his head and glanced at the witcher: "Although everything is as you expected, there is still a risk of leaking information. Do you want to fight?"

Beside him, the witcher had slowly pulled out the huge sword from the alchemy leather bag on his waist.

Lann's eyes never left the Nilfgaardian convoy. Although there was a forest blocking it, the reaction of the chaotic magic in [Spiritual Vision] could not deceive anyone.

The witcher didn't say any more, this was already his attitude.

Lincoln nodded: "Understood, I'll go down and make arrangements. Just follow our previous tactics."

On the road beside the woods, Nilfgaard's logistics troops hurriedly and slowly gathered together such a specially equipped unit, which was moving forward with the baggage train.

 The defense is specialized, and each person is equipped with a solid wooden shield with iron hoops. Even the sides of the carriages of the vehicles transporting the baggage are stuck with thick tower shields that can be easily removed at any time.

 Their task is to stay in front of the imaginary enemy for a while.

 The warlocks were all greeted in advance, and each of them was assigned spell-casting tasks like an assembly line.

 Swamp spell, diffusion electric field, freezing air burst. All spells are used to delay the super-powerful movement of imaginary enemies and protect the commanders around them.

 The heavy cavalry with a full set of horse armor and knight armor are neatly equipped throughout the journey.

The giant shield infantry array is rigorous, the mage's spell is in hand, and the heavy cavalry is ready to attack, just waiting for the imaginary enemy to appear in front of them.

Then we can test the feasibility of these response plans that the elites in the command have racked their brains and strategized.

 Overall, it can be said to be very effective.

The baggage convoy, which contained a total of 700 armed personnel, successfully compressed the collapse time to less than ten minutes under the arrangements of the Nilfgaard headquarters.

 The first thing that rushed out of the woods was a violent roar.

It was like there were several crossbows placed in the woods that were supposed to be used in siege battles. The arrow, which was as huge as a spear, tore through the air cleanly, and then rushed into the crowd.

 The sound of "prick, prick, prick" resounded.

It was like a plow going over the sand, plowing out several blood-red ravines in the crowd.

 Ordinary soldiers are not even qualified to react.

 The captured bed crossbow arrows were pushed by the [Alder Seal], and with the ultimate control assisted by the biological brain, the driving force of the chaotic magic was completely concentrated on a very small unit area.

Although the driving force generated by this is not as good as a bed crossbow that can provide several tons of elasticity, there is actually no difference when it comes to killing the human body within a short distance.

The heavy armored and giant shield infantry who were supposed to be on the front line to block the attack, even if they realized that the attack was coming, their physical fitness was too late to react.

 The carefully arranged convoy was even divided into several sections by huge crossbow arrows in an instant!

 It is difficult for any army to maintain courage in the face of a sudden outbreak of huge casualties. Especially when those huge spear-like crossbow arrows are still being shot out!

 The rigorous queue fell into chaos in an instant.
