Chapter 798 Balance
"Haha!" Harry scratched his head in embarrassment, "The situation at that time was really dangerous, I didn't even have time to think about it, I cast spells entirely by instinct, and all I could think about was getting rid of that artillery team. "
"At that critical moment, you have to put all your eggs in one basket!" Percy patted Harry's head appreciatively, and at the same time looked at Cedric with relief, "Also thanks to you, I was able to bite Wood to death. It's hard work."
"I just did what I was supposed to do." Cedric smiled shyly, "Speaking of which, it's thanks to you, who actually thought of this trick and stunned them for a while. In fact, the situation at that time It's very dangerous, and if it's 1 minute later, the temporary resurrection point will be cleared."
"It should be said that everyone's hard work is crucial to the success of this decisive battle!" Percy glanced at the surrounding people, and then raised his right hand excitedly, "Next, let's work hard and securely win the second stage of the task!"
"Take it! Take it..."
The wizards around at the side also raised their right hands in response. Obviously, this victory has brought them a lot. This kind of joyful feeling of fighting bloody battles with their companions is something that everyone has never experienced before.
After a brief celebration, Percy gathered everyone around the map and analyzed their second phase of the mission.
"From the map, the target we want to overcome in the second stage is this checkpoint deep in the valley." Percy pointed to the middle of the map and introduced, "The whole checkpoint is located between two high mountains, with It's a steep cliff."
"It's probably less than 10 minutes away from our current location. Presumably the defenders have already teleported to the inside of the checkpoint for defense."
"The checkpoint is composed of two parts. One is the city wall with a total length of nearly 8 meters, 5 meters high and [-] meters thick. The second is the gate in the middle of the city wall. The gate is a double-opening steel structure with an ominous thickness and no moat. .”
"What we have to do is to cross this checkpoint and seize the enemy command post in the rear. The occupation method is similar to that of a stronghold. As long as our people stand on it, the progress bar will be pulled."
"As for our resurrection location, it has also been changed to the headquarters nearly 100 meters in front of the checkpoint. It is estimated that our knight commander has also moved there."
These contents are all the information that Percy has indicated after he got the map, and what he is doing now is just sharing the complete information with everyone.
"So, the second stage is the siege?" Ginny frowned. "This seems to be much more difficult than attacking the stronghold. Why is the time given less than the first stage?"
"Because there is only one level, unlike the first stage where you have to occupy three strongholds at the same time, this greatly saves the time spent on movement." Percy laughed, "And the time left in the first stage can also be inherited to the second stage." stage, so our siege time is actually 50 minutes."
"Hmm... Do you have any thoughts on this level?" Cedric also understood the content of the second stage at this time.
"Before I saw the actual situation of the checkpoint, I didn't have much of a clue." Percy shook his head, "However, there are only three ways to attack. Either break through the city gate from the front, or start from the city wall. In addition, you can also consider going away. Air route, directly across the checkpoint to attack the enemy command post."
"It's probably difficult to attack from the air. Their air defense methods are very sharp, and they also have their own air power." Neville felt his scalp tingle when he recalled the blow he encountered when he arrived above the position.
"So I want to conduct a frontal attack first, to test the strength of the defense on the other side." Percy nodded, "And there are also a lot of engineering equipment in the exchange list. The specific situation can be studied over there."
"Then what are you waiting for?" Ginny rolled up her sleeves like a boy, "Go, I haven't beaten enough yet!"
……
On the other side, when the stronghold was lost and sent to the defenders inside the checkpoint, they were standing there with unwilling faces.
They really didn't expect that their defense was good, and they didn't even use their full strength, but they would fail in such a dramatic way.
"Sorry." Wood bowed his head in frustration, "If I hadn't been held back by Cedric and failed to warn everyone in time, we wouldn't have lost so quickly."
"Don't say that, Wood." Seeing this, Hermione quickly comforted, "Everyone has never encountered this situation before, and we are also responsible. If our team can get rid of the temporary resurrection point faster, it will not happen. This situation."
"Yes, I can only say that Percy is too cunning."
"As long as we learn the lesson, we may not be unable to win the next battle!"
Several captains in the crowd spoke up one after another, cheering for Wood and the team.
And Draco resolutely reminded, "Don't think about the previous defeat. What is in front of us now is how to defend the level in front of us."
"That's right!" Hermione nodded, "We don't have as much time as we thought, and maybe it's time for us to try to think about the future defense countermeasures from an overall perspective."
"What do you mean by ... the overall angle?" Ron frowned in confusion.
Hermione explained after hearing the words, "You must know that the [Battlefield] dungeon has three stages. We may have underestimated the opponent's strength before, and always wanted to rely on the No. 2 position to completely defeat the opponent once and for all."
"But through the previous battles, the opponent also let us see their determination and means. Obviously, this offensive and defensive battle is not as simple as everyone imagined."
"So the first thing we need to do is put away our chances, and don't set the goal at the beginning to completely stop the opponent within the stage." Hermione blurted out almost without a breath.
"I think I understand what you mean." Wood nodded when he heard the words, "Indeed, we took it for granted before, and ended up wasting too many resources in unnecessary places in order to completely complete the game in the first stage. "
Since they successfully ambushed and wiped out the attacker once at the beginning, many people, including Percy, had a fluke mentality in their hearts, and always wanted to completely suppress the enemy's offensive in the No. 2 position.
As a result, in order to stabilize their position, they used a lot of resources in areas with little risk, such as the minefield behind the position. Now that I think about it, it was really wasteful. Neville was killed from the beginning to the end.
Although this kind of thinking and tactics that try to be perfect, although they seem to be comprehensive, they don't actually focus on the point.
Therefore, facing the aggressive attackers, they were like kraft paper that looked hard but would break when poked.
In fact, thinking about it now, if the initial strategy was to delay time, the most suitable tactic for them is actually mobile warfare, constantly shifting between several strongholds, and specifically attacking the enemy's weakly manned positions.
In that case, perhaps the stakes will be particularly high, and the situation will be even more chaotic than before.
But that's better than pressing all the defense centers on one stronghold, and losing everything if something goes wrong.
"I understand." Wood's eyes flashed a firm look again, "In the next second stage, we will set the goal to delay the time as much as possible."
"And we wasted nearly 20 minutes in the first stage, so at the end of the second stage, we'd better shorten the remaining time to less than 10 minutes."
"Yeah!" Hermione nodded approvingly, and then smiled wryly, "However, our mission in the second stage looks similar to the situation in the first stage, and we all stick to the same place."
"How can this be similar?" Ron rolled his eyes, "This checkpoint is much better than the No. 2 stronghold in terms of location, you forgot how much merit we spent before building it into a fortress of?"
"No." Wood shook his head, "For us wizards, a mere city wall is really as strong as imagined. Simply put it in another place, and I can think of leaping through the air and using transfiguration to directly change the structure of the city wall. means."
"Not to mention that the opponent can still launch a strong attack steadily. In addition, they have just won the first stage of victory. They must be in a state of high morale. It is possible that the intensity of the battle will be very full at the beginning."
"Then what do you think?" Ron couldn't help being silent when he heard the words, and couldn't help asking after a while.
"This time we have to save resources as much as possible!" Wood said calmly, "Now I also want to understand that this battle is essentially a resource exchange in the final analysis."
"There is not much difference in staffing between the two sides, and since we have a geographical advantage, in order to balance, the opponent's resource conversion rate will definitely be higher than ours!"
"So what we have to do is to use as few resources as possible to replace the other party's resources, just like the scatter cannon corresponds to the broomstick. As long as we can exchange their resources one by one, we will make money!"
After the battle in the previous stage, Wood's understanding of the [Battlefield] dungeon has become more and more profound. He was wondering why the opponent's people died more than them, but the armament exchanged for meritorious service was still stronger. outrageous.
Presumably this itself belongs to the internal balance system of the dungeon. Everyone knows that it is easy to defend and difficult to attack. There is no reason for the defender to take advantage of it. Therefore, providing the attacker with high-quality and cheap armaments can balance the two sides well. fighting power.
But the defenders are not useless. In fact, their defensive materials are not expensive, but since most of them are passive items, such as traps and mines, they need to be spread over a large area to achieve good results.
Therefore, on the actual battlefield, a large part of the armament is actually wasted, so Wood, who came to his senses, decided to use more resources for active defense, and to target the opponent's offensive resources as much as possible instead of simply targeting personnel. .
