King
Chapter 439 Natural Disaster of the Undead
Visit the wounded, list battle damage, compile battle reports...
The war was over, and Hudson was even busier.
I had to write materials before traveling through time, but I didn’t expect that I would have to write after traveling through time. The difference is that in the past you had to write, revise, and get sprayed by yourself, but now you only need to sign.
Achievements are not only achieved on the battlefield, they must also be publicized.
We can't do it without a high profile. We have lost so many elites and achieved nothing, and the country cannot explain it.
After last night's battle, another stubborn problem in the army was placed in front of Hudson.
There has always been an unspoken rule in the Royal Army that the appointment of officers must follow the principle of "origin \u003e strength \u003e ability".
If you want to break the rules of the game, unless it's a life-and-death moment, there is no better choice.
Hudson was able to rise to the top because he was not only good at fighting, he was also the strongest in the kingdom, and the officers and soldiers below believed in him.
Faced with a mess that no one can clean up, everyone can only push him to the top.
The current situation is obviously not that bad. If he wants to make personnel adjustments, Hudson must also abide by the rules.
In the battle last night, the Warcraft Legion suffered heavy losses, and a large part of the reason was poor internal coordination.
The appointment of Jose as temporary commander aroused dissatisfaction among the military nobles, and they compromised in executing the order.
Fortunately, it is a temporary appointment. If it were a permanent position, I am afraid that the people below could cause trouble.
In the final analysis, the expeditionary force was just a patchwork of elites, and Hudson could only control the troops based on his own prestige.
Every mid-level and high-level officer in the army has a great background, and their status is not as low as that of Hudson.
Reform is impossible, the final battle is imminent, and the most important thing now is stability.
Anyway, this unspoken rule is not only popular in the expeditionary force, but also in the entire Aslant continent.
We all have shortcomings, so they cannot be considered shortcomings.
At least the kingdom's army is not that solid. Hudson can also select capable superiors from nobles of similar status, or appoint nobles with stronger abilities and inferior backgrounds to superiors.
The main reason is that the ability is too vague and it is difficult to convince everyone. Unlike the strength, which can be shown clearly, just go out and fight if you are not convinced.
Generally speaking, someone with a noble birth and strong strength will be a proper general in the army and a reserve commander.
If you know how to behave, it would be normal to be directly appointed as the head coach.
It sounds a bit childish, but compared to the time when Prince Caesar was the head coach when he debuted, this is already very cautious.
The situation of the expeditionary force is actually pretty good. Everyone knows the risks of this trip. If you don't have any ability, you won't send it to the army.
"well!"
After sighing, Hudson reluctantly crossed Jose off the list.
Among the four legions of the expeditionary force, the Warcraft Legion has the smallest number of troops, but because of its powerful combat effectiveness, it has the highest status and is known as the first legion in the kingdom.
In order to compete for this position, the great nobles were almost competing for the position. In the end, it was Hudson who declared himself as agent, which calmed the turmoil.
This agency is here now. It originally wanted to support Jose to take the position, but now it found that there was too much resistance and had to cancel the plan.
If a civilian is appointed as the commander of the legion, unless he is a strong man at the sanctuary level, he will not be able to convince the public at all.
Of course, if he were really a strong man from the Holy Realm, he would not be a commoner. No matter which country you are in, you can get a good title.
"Sorry, Mr. Jose!"
Hudson said pretending to be helpless.
What is now crossed out is not only Jose's position as commander of the army, but also his official career in the kingdom.
No one wants to have one more share of the cake exposed in front of a group of nobles in advance. As a result, they will not even have a chance to enter.
If nothing else happens, Jose's previous scapegoat will be magnified and publicized again.
Even if you achieve military success, you can't even think about entering the aristocratic circle.
"Marshal, this is none of your business. Even if everyone agrees, it's useless. Your Majesty doesn't want to see me active in front of you!"
Jose said bitterly.
The last bit of luck in my heart was shattered.
After experiencing glory, it is really difficult to start from scratch.
In fact, if Jose's target was not the legion commander, but the centurion below, no one would mind giving Hudson face.
But after all, he was a man who had commanded an army of hundreds of thousands, even if he was only the deputy commander, his expectations were amplified.
This workplace is similar. People who have served as vice presidents of top listed companies, no matter how depressed they are, cannot start over from the grassroots level of the company.
There was no reminder, because Hudson knew that people are prone to taking chances, and he would definitely not be willing to give up if he didn't give it a try.
Simply give him a chance to stop Jose's thoughts so that he can stay and work with peace of mind.
"Mr. Jose, don't think too much about it. His Majesty the King also has his difficulties, mainly due to the stubborn diseases in the Royal Army.
These shortcomings will change sooner or later. After the mainland war is over, I will once again propose restructuring to the kingdom to clean up these stubborn problems. "
Hudson said kindly.
As a "loyal minister", he would never speak ill of his king in front of his subordinates. This was a matter of principle.
As for cleaning up the stubborn diseases in the army, just listen.
Now is a time of war, which seems unsuitable for reform, but it is the time when the kingdom is most motivated to carry out military reform, and it is also the time when vested interest groups are most likely to make concessions.
When the mainland war is over and the crisis no longer exists, then why reform?
Whether to change it or not is one thing, but whether to mention it or not is another thing entirely.
As the marshal of the kingdom, Hudson had the obligation to make the kingdom's army stronger.
Failure to do so is due to obstruction by vested interest groups, not because of his dereliction of duty as a marshal.
With the label of reformist, groups eager to change the status quo will automatically move closer to him.
Originally, Hudson hated cliques the most, but reality told him that if he wanted to get along well, he had to form cliques.
Especially when your status reaches a certain level, you not only represent yourself, but you must also represent a group.
The end of being alone is usually not good. Most of the tragic songs about unfortunate heroes are tragic because they have not thought clearly about this point.
…
The atmosphere in the camp of the coalition forces of the ancient survivors was extremely tense at the moment.
The camp was destroyed, and not only the food and grass were lost, but the tents, consumable ordnance, and various materials were all destroyed in the raging fire.
The days of hunger and cold were the most unbearable. In order to avoid starvation, some races extended their tentacles to the corpses of their comrades.
Fire can't be contained in paper, everyone is freezing and hungry, and it's hard for you to barbecue without being exposed.
Who can bear to find out that members of his own tribe have been roasted by his allies?
In particular, some hostile races that had bad relations with them started fighting directly in the camp. When the kings of various races intervened, another pile of corpses appeared on the ground.
A life occurred and things became more complicated. It doesn't matter whether it is reasonable or unreasonable. The kings of this clan are the masters who help relatives but not others.
There was originally a king who tried to break up the fight, but just by trying to persuade him, his own tribe was also involved.
If it weren't for the threat of the expeditionary force, a civil war might break out in the alliance.
Meeting such teammates, Delise just felt tired. However, due to the needs of the situation, she had to mediate.
"It's less than two hundred miles away from the main camp. If we speed up the march, we can reach it in three or four days. It will be over with a little patience.
But what have you done?
To actually attack the corpse of a comrade in order to get a bite to eat is simply like a beast!
All participants were organized into death camps. Next, they will perform the most dangerous mission and use their blood to atone for their actions!
From now on, all corpses must be burned, and if similar things happen again, they will be killed without mercy!
Don't take it seriously. Now if you can't handle it, I don't mind helping you make up your mind. "
Delis warned sternly.
Facing the Ancient Relics Alliance, which is full of internal conflicts, it is impossible to satisfy all parties. It is simply a matter of clearly supporting one side.
The arrogance of the elf made her choose the side closer to her own ideals. The barbaric behavior of using the corpses of comrades as food must be severely cracked down on.
This is just the beginning, and only a few races are participating. If this trend is not curbed immediately, elves may one day also get on the grill.
If that scene really happened, Delis could guarantee that she would go crazy.
"His Holiness is right, certain barbaric races must be severely punished!"
The Shadow King was the first to agree.
If you want to unify the ancient alliance of survivors, you must first establish a civilization system. According to the current barbaric gameplay, even if unification is achieved, it will only be unification in name.
With the power of the shadow clan, no matter how hard they try, they can't do this. To complete the plan, it is necessary to obtain the support of the elves.
As for offending others, there is no need to worry at all. The race involved was placed in a death camp.
With the enemy's strong fighting power, even normal missions are dangerous, let alone the most dangerous missions.
Seeing someone taking the lead, except for the few unlucky kings involved in the case, the remaining kings expressed their support one after another, fearing that Delis would take notice of him.
…
The storm subsided, but the problem was not resolved. Under normal circumstances, the journey is only three or four days, and we can survive even if we are short of food, but the current situation is abnormal.
The expeditionary force is too close to them, and they can encounter the opponent's rangers on daily patrols. The current level of peace is that the opponent is tired, and after taking a break, the enemy will still come back to cause trouble for them.
Under this background, the marching speed will inevitably be greatly affected. What's more, there are still a lot of wounded in the army. Delise can not care about the wounded of her allies, but the wounded of the elves must be considered.
Under this background, the advancing speed of the army will most likely be lower than the normal level. The journey that originally took three or four days of urgent marching may not even be completed in five or six days now.
Omnivorous races are okay. Without food, they can cope with it for a few days with leaves, bark, grass roots...
Other races are in embarrassment. They still have the strength to fight now, but after a few days of starvation, they will all turn into soft-footed shrimps.
It would be embarrassing to remember that when the enemy launched a general attack, our own soldiers were too hungry and weak to lift their guns.
"Sir, how to solve the food problem?"
The three-headed monster asked pretending not to know.
The people who were dealt with the most just now were all his clansmen. As a race that is accustomed to eating the same kind of food, we really can't understand what Delis is doing.
After giving her a fierce look, Delise said angrily: "If you don't have food, then go out and look for it!
You attacked so fast, I don’t believe that humans destroyed all the supplies. If you look carefully, there will always be missing supplies.
Don't forget that there are still resistance forces. If they can persist, they will definitely have a lot of food and supplies in their hands.
I’ve given you all the solutions, you can figure out the rest on your own! Take advantage of the fact that the enemy is resting and take action quickly. If it is too late, you will have no chance. "
After saying that, Delise turned and left directly. Her intuition told her that she could not stay any longer, otherwise more trouble would come to her door.
She didn't know if the food gap of the coalition forces could be solved. Anyway, the elves had food.
In the battle last night, many war horses also died. These are the trophies of the elven army. It is definitely not enough to feed the entire army, but if it is only provided to the elven army, it can still last for a few days.
…
Among the clouds, a man and a dragon were looking down at the camp below, as if looking for something. Especially Maxim's performance was the most exaggerated, almost drooling.
"According to the intelligence, this is the headquarters of the Ancient Relics Alliance in Declas Province. There are also deep carriage gear marks nearby. If there is treasure hidden, this is definitely the most likely place.
If you look carefully, the number of soldiers patrolling the camp in the northwest is obviously more than that in other places.
We've been watching for so long, but we haven't seen anyone coming or going. On the contrary, there are warehouses in other directions, with people coming in and out from time to time.
If you want to take action, it's best to create chaos in the camp first and mobilize the defenders. Or choose the right opportunity to sneak in and get our treasure back! "
Hudson calmly determined the identity of the unseen treasure.
Everything was stolen from the local nobles by enemies. The nobles of the world were one family, and the treasures of the nobles of the Warhammer Kingdom were also equivalent to his treasures.
Now it's not about robbing, but coming here to take back what belongs to you. Unfortunately, the enemy refused to cooperate, so he could only resort to rough methods.
"Hudson, the enemy's defenders are quite numerous. If there's a head-on fight, I'm afraid that idiot Maxim won't be able to take care of you. We'd better do it at night!
It's a pity that those ghosts are not there, otherwise they would be released in the dark night and kept to make the enemy fall into chaos. "
The speaker does not mean it, but the listener does it intentionally. If Bear Stearns hadn't reminded him, Hudson would have almost forgotten that he was still a necromancer.
When it comes to causing destruction in the dark, necromancers are the most professional. Anyway, if you do it here, you won't be afraid of being exposed.
A necromancer who had been in seclusion for many years found that his home was occupied by aliens when he came out. It was completely reasonable for him to take revenge out of anger.
"Go back to the military camp first, and we'll come back in the evening."
…
At midnight, the Allied Forces Camp of the Ancient Relics in the Declas Province was brightly lit. Not only did the number of patrolling soldiers not decrease, but it increased as night fell.
"You are summoning the undead army outside to attack the enemy's military camp. No matter whether it is successful or not, you must evacuate immediately after casting the magic. The subsequent arson operation will be carried out by Maxim."
Hudson ordered to the accompanying necromancers.
Originally, he was going to work alone, but later, considering that the undead magicians accompanying the army had been idle and had no chance to appear, he simply brought them all over.
The reasons are all ready, looking for opportunities to burn the enemy's grain and grass stored in the Declas Province. Once this plan is completed, the enemy army will have to explode on the spot.
Once the food and grass here are destroyed, the enemy strongholds within hundreds of miles together will not be able to produce food and grass that can supply the enemy's army.
In fact, Hudson also thought about leading troops to sneak attack here, but was forced to give up in the end. There is no other reason than the restricted terrain, which is not conducive to the performance of the cavalry.
The enemy has stationed heavy troops here, and without a large army coming, Maxim alone will only be able to burn part of the food and grass.
"Don't worry, Hudson. We old bones can definitely handle this little thing.
Not to mention, after all these years of learning the Undead Canopy, a few of us have never used it. We have to have a good time today and not embarrass the Undead Magician! "
After the old man finished speaking, all the necromancers agreed.
As officially trained necromancers, they are different from wild necromancers and are greatly restricted in their behavior.
But those who learn necromancy magic have a restless heart after all. In order not to fall into the situation where everyone screams for beatings, they can only forcefully suppress the idea of causing trouble.
Originally, the last orc invasion was an opportunity for everyone to show off, but unfortunately it was snatched away by the "senior group" that emerged.
"Don't worry, you can do whatever you want here. No matter what monster is released, it has nothing to do with us, as long as it doesn't backfire on you.
Okay, let's get started, I'm going to work too! "
Hudson said expressionlessly.
Deep down, he was already happy. With these guys taking the blame, the possibility of him being exposed is even lower.
Although his magic level is not as high as these guys, it is better because he has abundant magic power!
It's all about destruction anyway. As long as the undead creatures are summoned, other things have nothing to do with Hudson.
As long as you don't control undead creatures to fight, you won't consume much mental energy. Maybe the number of undead creatures he can summon may be greater than that summoned by the Saint Necromancer.
Of course, this is only in terms of quantity, and there is no comparison between the two parties in terms of quality. When someone summons a high-level undead creature, it can suppress the unintelligent low-level undead army with its momentum.
Under the cover of the dark night, black clouds slowly gathered in the sky, and the huge fluctuations in magic power quickly attracted the attention of the enemy magicians.
Just as they were preparing to interfere, undead creatures kept appearing in the camp, including skeletons, nightmares, undead knights, headless knights...
There are everything from low-level undead to mid-level undead. Hudson is not picky at all. He will summon whatever undead creature he is linked to.
With the desire for flesh and blood in their bones, the undead creatures launched an attack on nearby soldiers even without Hudson's command.
To be precise, the fighting was started by the defenders. All races on the mainland have the same stance on dealing with undead creatures, that is - kill.
When seeing the undead appear in the military camp, everyone will naturally not be polite. The bloody smell produced by the soldiers' casualties in the battle directly stimulated a group of undead creatures, pushing the battle to a climax.
Killing, besides killing, killing. A group of undead creatures fighting with instinct caused an uproar in the camp.
The battle quickly attracted the attention of the enemy magicians. A group of magicians who thought they had found their target immediately launched an attack on the place where the magic power fluctuated.
Hudson, who had been prepared for a long time, naturally would not stay where he was and get beaten. He had been taken to a different place by Maxim and continued the great cause of summoning.
After changing places five times in a row, the dark sky also enveloped the camp, covering a quarter of the camp in an instant.
"Oops, this is the Forbidden Undead Canopy, we've fallen into a trap!"
Only now did I realize this, it was already too late. Countless undead creatures quickly emerged from under the sky and launched a fierce attack on the nearby defenders.
What's worse is that once the soldiers die in battle, their flesh and blood will either be devoured by nearby undead, or they will be transformed into new undead creatures.
Without any hesitation, the strong men in the defenders launched attacks on the Undead Canopy.
Everyone knows very well that if this thing is not broken, undead creatures will continue to appear.
Seeing that the time was ripe, they split into two groups, one man, one dragon and one bear. Bear Stearns was responsible for sneaking into the tent and looting the property, while Hudson and Maxim continued to stay and cause chaos.
In order to make the enemy believe that this was for their food, Hudson deliberately burned a row of granaries.
Seeing Hudson tirelessly summoning the undead, Maxim asked with a trembling voice: "Hudson, is your magic power endless?"
The magic power of a sixth-level great mage was actually more abundant than the magic power of the sacred dragon. Maxim felt that the world had gone crazy.
