Almighty Lord: I can modify hidden entries

"More than 80,000 people have decided to stay in Qingyuan Town. Among the remaining 70,000 people, 37,000 have made it clear that they will not stay in Qingyuan Town. The rest have expressed their intention to wait until the war is over. consider."

Kroger also reported the just-concluded survey to Gooden.

Hearing this number, Gudern still showed a smile of relief on his face. The 80,000 people seemed to be only more than half of the current number, but compared to the previous situation where more than 4,000 people in Qingyuan Town wished that one person could be used as three people. Come on, these more than 80,000 people are already a lot.

Moreover, the large number of people joining has a considerable impact on Qingyuan Town. In terms of salary payment alone, Gooden is already unable to do what he wants.

Although he earned little before winter, with the wave of supplies from the Griffin Legion, he still had a lot of money in his small treasury.

However, at least 60% of the coins distributed failed to circulate and were kept tightly in their wallets. This had a serious impact on the economy of the entire Qingyuan Town.

If it weren't for the fact that this was wartime, and work was being exchanged for rations, and if coins were given out, Gudern would have gone bankrupt long ago.

"Those who are willing to stay in Qingyuan Town will be given priority in registration and allocation, and the pressure will begin to shift the non-Qingyuan residents in the city outwards to the outer cities and towns."

"Well, we understand."

Kroger nodded slightly to express his understanding.

Hundreds of thousands of people are crowded into the city, and daily maintenance is a headache for them. Migration is inevitable, but the people who move will definitely be refugees, not urban residents.

After the work was handed over, the two immediately went to start making arrangements.

In the evening, a construction convoy of 100 people drove to Jinyuan City, and after returning, they transported building materials twice more.

At the same time, news about the fall of Jinyuan City has reached the orcs.

In the hall of the Lord's Palace of Howling Tooth City, four extraordinary people sat silently aside, and Hadri, who was the governor of thousands of armies, also did not speak.

The entire attack on the western part of the North gave him a headache, not to mention that the war was forced to be advanced due to the disappearance of Servis.

Subsequently, tens of thousands of troops attacked the elemental leyline but failed, allowing the enemy to escape right under their noses. What was even more outrageous was that they were counterattacked and suffered heavy casualties.

Forget it, an army of 400,000 people attacked Qingyuan Town, plus three extraordinary ones. In the end, 180,000 orcs came out, and at the same time, one extraordinary person died in battle.

In addition, during the evacuation, the commander of the Griffin Legion left an arm behind. Although Fu Ji's help later restored a small amputated arm, but at this moment, even if Meng Da can recover, his strength is not as good as before. .

Of course, if Helisa had not severely injured a group of people before, it would not have been possible for the other party to chop off an arm so easily.

Of the six extraordinarys, one was missing and the other was killed in less than two months. This kind of shocking battle damage, even in the counterattack when the empire was at its strongest, the orcs had never achieved such a record.

This has nailed them to the pillar of shame in history. Unless they can leave great achievements on the northern battlefield at this moment, it will be difficult to turn over this page of shame in their lives and even in their aftermath.

"Kanahara City is not important. Even if Gudern can have the help of the Griffin Legion, if tens of thousands of orcs are mixed with the civilians of the empire, they will definitely suffer heavy losses if they can capture Kanehara City."

Hadri looked at the silent hall and opened his mouth to warm up the atmosphere.

"Right now, our goal is to hold on here. The failure of the offensive in the west makes His Majesty very dissatisfied. All the preparations of more than ten years have been in vain. Our current task is to launch the next round before the imperial reinforcements have officially launched. Make a choice before attacking, whether to fight or withdraw."

"My suggestion is to withdraw and conserve our strength. After the 600,000 reinforcements and 200,000 vanguard troops were fought, only 480,000 are left. The cities captured in the western part of the northern border require too many places to be garrisoned. We have a serious division of troops. It’s not conducive to gathering for combat.”

As the presence of the orcs, Govis was the first to put forward his own opinion.

Faced with Govis's proposal, the University of Montana objected.

"I am opposed to withdrawing the troops. This raid was meant to catch the empire off guard. Once the troops are withdrawn, whether we can fight back is another matter. Just where should we retreat? The Yongshuang Mountains?"

Monda was extremely opposed to the withdrawal of troops. Once he withdrew, it would mean that it would be difficult to fight back. His shame had not subsided, and he wanted to escape in despair.

But Fu Ji and Miweko agreed to withdraw their troops, Miweko, who had experience in frontline combat, said slowly.

"I also agree to withdraw the troops. Reinforcements from the Imperial Army have also arrived. We no longer have the advantage in terms of numbers. In addition, there are logistical supply problems. If we maintain the supply of 480,000 troops for at least a month, we will run out of food, which is not conducive to long-term confrontation."

Three to one, the result of the discussion was already obvious. Meng Da was helpless about this. The three of them made the choice to retreat. He could not continue to refute and could only silently accept this option.

If there was a tie between two and two, he would still fight for it, but the most rational thing at the moment was to withdraw his troops and temporarily avoid the edge of the imperial army. He wanted to stay and fight because he also wanted to wash away the shame he had suffered in Qingyuan Town.

The decision direction was finalized, and Hadri, the leader, also made a statement and deployment.

"Withdrawing our troops does not mean that we have given up our fighter planes. Look at the map. In order to defend us, the empire has deployed a large number of troops in Yongshuang Duanmai."

"It is difficult for us to break through this line of defense when placed on the front, but what if we can attack from the flanks or force them to deploy troops to defend from the back in order to reduce the strength of the frontal defense?"

Hadri circled the map, and the four of them looked at it thoughtfully.

"Howling Fang City is less than a thousand kilometers away from Broken Vein. The army is marching at full speed and will arrive in less than ten days. Even if the imperial army behind us discovers our intentions, they will have difficulty catching up."

"If we can open up our fighter planes at Broken Vein, the defeat in the Western Conference will be completely worth mentioning. What do you think of this plan?"

Although he is the son of the Beast King, the current defeat in the Western War has put a lot of pressure on him. If he just runs away without doing anything, he will not be able to hold his head up in front of his brothers and sisters when he returns to the country.

Compared to Meng Da or other extraordinary beings, Hadri desires military exploits more than any of them, because with military exploits he can obtain more rights and resources, and then he can stand out from dozens of brothers and sisters, and finally become the beast king. throne.

After listening to Hadri's suggestion, the four extraordinary eyes flashed as they considered the feasibility of this plan.

A thousand-mile raid would have put them under a lot of pressure under normal circumstances, but now thanks to Xue Ji, the human army was acting like them, making it difficult to deploy and react quickly.

If we can make a time lag and raid the empire's heavy city fortress at Yongshuang Cutoff to create an opportunity for the front line, then the defeat of the war in the west will not be worth mentioning.

If the orc army wants to break into the empire, there are only two directions to enter, one is the Yongshuang Broken Vein, and the other is the Yongshuang Tail Vein in the desolate land.

The Yongshuang Mountains were cut off with a sword during a battle between a human holy spirit and a legendary demon thousands of years ago.

A gap three to five kilometers wide was cut out of hundreds of kilometers of mountains, opening up the two places that were originally separated, the Beifeng Frost Realm and the North Plains Barrens. The North Plains Barrens is where the orcs live today. place.

After being driven out of the north by the Orrea Empire, the empire built thick walls and fortresses at the Broken Vein, and stationed millions of troops, creating a huge city with more than fifty kilometers around the Broken Vein. defense iron barrel.

The other tail vein needs to pass through the desolate land. If the Orc Empire wants to pass through the desolate land to attack the empire, it will have to cross hundreds of kilometers of no man's land, and the danger is no less than crossing the Yongshuang Mountains.

This also means that every attack they make will be very laborious, and they will have to pay a high price.

Now, although they only have 480,000 people left in their hands, this number may not be enough compared to the millions of defenders with broken veins.

But they only need to hold off the human defenders and fight correctly. Even if it is a defensive battle, humans must mobilize at least two-thirds of their total number for defense.

In this way, the front line will be able to save two to three hundred thousand imperial soldiers, and they can also cut off the supply lines of the army on the flanks. This is a direct approach that kills two birds with one stone.

"If we want to launch a surprise attack, we must move as quickly as possible. Winter is about to end, and the roads will become muddy after the snow melts. This is also a problem for human convoys..."

Miweko's eyes flickered and he gave his opinion.

"What do you think?" Hadri looked at the other three people.

"Agree to act as soon as possible."

"Reconsideration."

Meng Da hesitated for a moment, then nodded slightly in agreement.

After the three people expressed their opinions, Hadri did not remain idle and immediately announced the signal to prepare to assemble and withdraw troops.

However, there are a lot of things to prepare for a 480,000-person assault mission, and it is not something that can be decided on the same day.

But judging from the orcs' resolute actions, the entire army will be able to set off in three days at the latest.

…

Early the next morning, the leader of the Griffin Army, Hogz, said goodbye to Gudern.

"Lord Gudern, the war in the north is tense. We have other tasks to arrange. We are about to leave. Is there anything else you need help with before leaving?"

Facing Hogtz's words, Gudern shook his head slightly.

"Your Excellency, Legion Commander, it is already a great help if you come to support us. Qingyuan Town has already passed the crisis, and I won't bother you with other problems."

Hearing Gudern's refusal, Hoggards nodded slightly and did not continue to ask. Instead, he introduced someone to Gudern.

"The Griffin Legion will not all leave. A team of 100 people will be temporarily stationed here. They will naturally leave after the Western Orcs are completely driven out. This is the stationed commander, Godwin. He will be responsible for these 100 people. management tasks.”

"When something happens, you can ask him for help. If he can't handle the matter, he will contact me to arrange it. This is His Majesty's will."

After hearing this, Gudern's eyes twitched slightly.

This cheap old man of his is worthy of being the Imperial Majesty. He did not hand over the letter, but left a backup plan to prevent him from having any accidents.

Hogtz's inquiry just now was probably asking him if he had forgotten something.

Hoggs definitely didn't know his identity and content, but his cheap dad must have told him something.

With a smile on his face, Gooden responded with thanks.

"Thank you, Your Majesty and the Legion Commander for your concern."

Hogtz nodded slightly, said nothing more, and then immediately summoned his men to head to the next destination.

The scene of nine hundred gryphons taking off is very spectacular. In addition, every sky gryphon knight has been trained. Even in this seemingly chaotic situation, everyone is actually flying according to their own prescribed route. of.

The departure of the Griffin Legion did not bring any trouble or defensive pressure to Gudern.

After watching him leave, Gudern returned to the institute and continued working.

The development and construction tasks of Qingyuan Town were back on track. As a lord, he no longer needed to worry about and supervise the progress in real time.

Now he can say that apart from coming to the institute every day to check in and help, the rest of the time is spent hanging up in the castle.

But two days later, Roy suddenly conveyed a piece of news about the orcs to Gooden, causing Gooden to temporarily break this comfortable time.

"Master, the orc army on the western front is shrinking its personnel, and a small group of troops has begun to move northeast. This seems to mean giving up the west."

Although Roy was originally just an ordinary guard, his experience after taking over the Intelligence Department has greatly increased his sensitivity to intelligence, and he is able to deduce a lot of important information from it.

"Assemble and retreat?"

Gudern repeated these two words, frowned slightly and thought for a while, then stood up and took out a map related to the North.

"Where is the orcs' current gathering place?"

"Howling Fang City, there are more than 250,000 imperial troops gathered here. The rest of the troops are distributed in other cities or towns. Many are currently gathering here, and some are directly looking towards the northeast to advance."

"And the informant gave a very important piece of information. The orc army has been collecting a large amount of food in the past few days and snatching away all the horses in various cities. According to the current analysis of the information, the orcs should be planning a long-distance attack. We have a plan, but it’s hard to tell whether to withdraw or attack.”

Silently listening to Roy's analysis, Gudern was also running rapidly in his mind. Is it possible that the orc army had the intention of retreating and heading west?

The current situation in the west is that only Qingyuan Town and the newly captured Jinyuan City are not in the hands of their orcs. The other areas within a radius of 500 kilometers are all occupied by orcs.

If the orcs plan to retreat, is it possible that they want to abandon the city they have captured?

While Gudern was thinking rapidly in his mind, he also did not forget to ask Roy.

"If the orc army retreats, which city is the most suitable for them to defend?"

Roy looked at the map and without thinking, pointed to a city road one hundred and fifty kilometers northeast of Jinyuan City.

"Here, Ancient Stone City, is one of the earliest cities in the western part of the Northern Territory. It is well-defended and easy to defend but difficult to attack. Although I don't know how the orcs captured it in a short time, if the orcs came to garrison, hundreds of thousands of them would Under the protection of the army, holding on for several months is not a problem.”

Looking at this city on the map, Gudern felt something strange, something was wrong.

But after thinking about it slightly, he still gave Roy a task.
