Chapter 222 The last person

War Building, at the main gate.

Today, a large number of students and generals gathered here, staring at the gate waiting for the results to come out.

Perhaps for the students fighting in the war zone, a day or two has passed, but for people in the real world, it is only a matter of minutes, so the results of the day's competition will be announced on the same day, and there is no need to wait until the afternoon.

At the 5th minute, two or three students walked out dejectedly.

In the city defense battle, whoever persists longer has stronger abilities. The last fifty students to emerge can advance to the next stage, while the first fifty students to emerge will lose the qualification to advance.

among the crowd.

Neville Dahlberg, who had been staring at the gate, had a glimmer of regret in his eyes, because none of the three people were the ones he was looking for. However, he still stepped forward and asked, "How many days did you guys last in there?"

They didn't want to answer such embarrassing questions.

But when they saw that the person asking was Neville, as third-level students, they naturally did not dare to offend him, so they honestly said: "We only held out for a day and a half before 3 troops were wiped out."

Wow.

The crowd of onlookers started to talk, but they were not concerned about the performance of the few people, but rather -

"The content of the city defense war is actually 20 troops attacking the city?"

"At first I thought 5 troops was the limit."

"It's unbelievable. If it were me, I probably wouldn't be able to last a day."

"..."

One of the Level 1 students stepped forward in admiration and asked, "Senior, can you tell me in detail how you held out for a day and a half? Using a division to hold out against an entire enemy army for a day and a half is simply a miracle."

The eliminated contestants who had prepared themselves to be laughed at did not expect this result.

So, feeling the admiring gazes of the crowd, they began to tell their stories: "When I saw the 20 siege troops, my mind went blank. To be honest, I have never faced so many troops alone, but at that time I also remembered the content about city defense in the basic course."

He coughed deliberately to attract everyone's attention.

The eliminated player continued, "I first arranged for the war airship to take off to delay the enemy's war airship's attack speed, and then let the main force defend the city. As we all know, the city gate is the most important line of defense in the city defense war."

"Senior, what's the result?"

The air around them became tense.
The Level 3 student said with a proud look on his face: "Although the war airship was destroyed in less than 10 minutes, with my tenacious perseverance and the investment of all my manpower, I managed to hold the city gate for 17 hours."

wow-

There are more and more onlookers.

"At the 18th hour, the city gate was lost."

The third-year student shook his head and said, "Everyone who has studied basic courses knows that the loss of the city gate means defeat, but this is not a real war after all. There is no such thing as surrender or retreat. All we can do is fight to the last man. Therefore, in the 3-hour conventional battle, our troops were killed by 5 enemy troops from the east gate to the west gate. There was no way to retreat."

"So how did you continue to hold on for 10 hours?"

Everyone asked the questions in their hearts, because according to the previous description, it was only 24 hours at most, and a day and a half was about 36 hours.

"First-year student, don't be anxious. Just listen to me slowly."

The third-year student said proudly, "You in levels 3 and 1 may not have learned guerrilla tactics yet. This tactic was added to the basic curriculum a while ago, and its combat concept is very different from traditional combat. Guerrilla tactics advocate breaking up the whole into small pieces, or even giving up the fight for key points, using small-scale troops to harass the enemy, in order to achieve the tactical goal of delaying time and exhausting the enemy." "Is this tactic what kept you going for more than 2 hours?"

"Yes."

The third-year student said with a regretful tone, "I only had less than 3 troops left at the time. I managed to delay the enemy for 3000 hours by breaking up the whole army into small groups. In the end, I was unfamiliar with the terrain and ran into the enemy's large army several times, which led to my complete defeat. If I had used this tactic from the beginning, I might have been able to hold out for three days... no, more than five days."

His mouth was full of regret, but his face was full of pride.

Although those troops were just virtual soldiers with rigid thinking, using 3000 soldiers to delay 20 troops for more than 10 hours was indeed enough to satisfy one's self-satisfaction.

In the next few minutes, more officers came out one after another.

After the 30th officer, most of them lasted for more than 3 days.

When asked the reasons, some relied on solid basic tactics to hold on until the end of 3 days, some used a combination of tactics to resist to the end, and some even used guerrilla tactics to hold on until this time.

Unfortunately, their guerrilla tactics only had the form but not the spirit.

Because even Tils, the leader of the guerrilla tactics research team, has not yet grasped the essence, let alone these students?
They paid no attention to the control of terrain and commanding heights, nor to the establishment of supply points and hiding points, and had no combat awareness of capturing major buildings. Like headless flies, they would often run into the encirclement of the enemy's large forces when turning a corner.

If Vega saw how they were wasting guerrilla tactics, he would be so depressed that he would vomit blood.

Can this be called guerrilla tactics?

This is simply walking into a trap and sending the soldiers to their deaths in vain.

Another few minutes passed.

When the number of contestants reached 49, Neville Dahlberg began to doubt himself.

Although he realized that Vega might be quite capable, he did not expect that Vega had such great abilities that he could persist to this point with the tactical level of a level 1 student.

You know, Vega's battlefield has been tampered with.

His enemy was not 20 virtual soldiers, but a large army of .

With 30 soldiers, forget about defending the city or any tactical theories. I'm afraid they would even destroy your city walls. But Vega has managed to hold on to this stage.

Just one more person.

If the next person to come out is not Vega, then it means—

His revenge plan failed.

At this moment, a vague figure appeared in the half-open door.

This is the 50th person, which also means that the 50 people who come out after this student will pass the test of the second phase of the General Plan and be qualified to advance to the third phase.

Neville Dahlberg's heart skipped a beat.

Da da da--

Although there was a lot of noise around, at that moment, Neville seemed to be able to clearly hear the footsteps a hundred meters away, and his heartbeat was pounding with the footsteps.

Out!
Who is this last person?
Neville's eyes widened.
