Lux's Magic Penetration Rod

Jarvan IV's plan went smoothly, and to a certain extent it was hidden from Swain and all Noxians.

Although the war masons have worked very hard, Tobitsia is after all an internal city of Demacia. They have no prior arrangements and no long-term intelligence station here. Therefore, they have no idea about the special nature of the Tobitsia River in this section of the basin. There is really a lack of understanding - and the locals don't have a good look on Noxus. Naturally, no one will take the initiative to tell the Noxians that there will be a short dry season after the spring floods.

Therefore, the Demacians' night crossing was beyond the Noxians' expectations. When Swain learned the news that the Demacians quietly crossed the river, his heart skipped a beat.

And as the Demacians successfully crossed the river and set up a posture to build another company camp in the eastern part of Tobitsia Fortress, Swain was also clearly aware of his opponent's plan.

This is going to take advantage of our army’s logistics!

Swain, who was deceived in Ionia, knew better than anyone the importance of logistics to an army, so when he occupied Tobitsia and built the Tobitsia Fortress, he emphasized logistics many times. importance, and sufficient supplies to support the army's operations for a month were stored in Tobitsia Fortress.

With the Demacia people in a state of running out of food, Tobitsia Fortress will have no problems in the short term, but if the stalemate continues, it will be troublesome if supplies are insufficient.

Fortunately, although Swain has maintained a calm posture after occupying Tobitsia, he is not really passive defense. When Jarvan IV reorganized the internal affairs and gathered command authority, Swain also completed the task. The integration of this Noxian army.

Now the logistics of Fortress Tobitsia is indeed under serious threat.

Swain's chess piece that he dropped early has been prepared - the Demacians are really good at taking advantage of the dry water to quickly swim across the river, and camping in the east of the fortress really makes the Noxian army's morale fluctuate, but if you cross the Tobitsia River at night, How much supplies can be brought in?

The company camp in the east of the city is not small in size. The soldiers in it eat horses and chew them every day. Don't they also need to be transported across the river?

The logistics of Tobitsia Fortress is under threat, so is the logistics of the company outside the city very easy?

There is food stored in our city to last more than a month. You can carry at most three days' food with you after swimming. If you don't go out for three days, there must be a team crossing the river to deliver food!

And this team is Swain’s next goal!

Although the situation was a bit unexpected, Swain's thinking was extremely clear. After figuring out the next strategy, he directly mobilized a team that was very good at fighting in Tobitsia, but had always been silent before.

Frogman Legion.

The main members of the Frogman Legion are a group of Vastayans named Fogha who live in the northern city of Horez in Besilico. They have frog-like flippers and flippers, and are naturally good at swimming.

Because they look similar to frogs, the Voghar people have always been regarded as slaves in Noxus. They have made a living by collecting seafood and pearls for the nobles for generations. Even though Longmen is their hometown, they don't have it here. The power to walk in the middle of the road.

After Swain occupied Dragon Gate, he immediately promulgated the "Civil Unanimity Law", which stipulated that all citizens of the empire, including Vastayans, had complete citizenship rights, and summoned a large number of Fogha people to join the army. .

The Foghar people, who were finally able to jump in the middle of the road with their heads held high, showed their loyalty to Swain. They selected the strongest young people in the clan and formed an army of frogmen to join Swain's command. , and in the original plan, Swain planned to send this special legion that can sneak underwater along the waterway into the Immortal Fortress to create chaos.

Later, the civil war in Noxus temporarily stopped and Swain marched westward. The Frogmen Legion as a secret weapon also followed the army. Even during the difficult march over the Gate of Sorrow, they were always placed in the baggage by Swain. There is a dedicated person in the car at all times to help moisturize their skin with water.

Although the frogmen army did not participate in the many trainings after the establishment of Tobitsia Fortress, they had already begun to adapt to the water flow of the Tobitsia River and the Vol River - the Demacians thought that they relied on the Dragon Bird Knight They had completely mastered the battlefield format, but they didn't know that beneath the sparkling Tobitsia River, a legion they had never seen before and could not imagine was swimming quietly.

Now, the Demacians successfully crossed the river and began to build a company camp. They planned to cut off the food road again. Swain thought that he should also reveal the frogman card in his hand and take advantage of the Demacian bridge. Before it was set up, they took advantage of the unexpected offensive of the Frogman Legion to directly attack their transport team and destroy the supplies they wanted to transport across the river!

A large amount of fire oil, which can burn on the river and will not be extinguished when exposed to water, was distributed to the frogmen. At the same time, Swain also mobilized the mages of the Flame Fist Wizard Group to cooperate. They must hit the target with one blow to kill the enemy. The Demacians who have their own food channels will taste the feeling of running out of food first!

……………………

Jarvan IV was naturally unaware of Swain's plans, but he knew the importance of food, so after establishing a foothold on the south bank of the river, he immediately requested follow-up supplies.

However, there were unforeseen circumstances - the dry season of the Tobitsia River was too short this year, and just at night when he completed the crossing, rain began to fall from the sky.

People can hold on to ropes to cross at night, but food transportation cannot be carried out in the night rain. In desperation, the food transport team that had been prepared long ago could only wait for the weather to clear before moving.

And because of this night's delay, the organized frogmen and the Flame Fist Legion lurked at the ferry of Demacia.

The next day, it was still raining.

When Demacia began to prepare to cross the river to deliver food, Tobitsia Fortress, which had previously displayed a war-free card, suddenly opened its north gate. The elite Trifari Chapter and Arcane Blade Mage Group quickly dispatched, heading straight to the river bank, as if to intercept A food transport team.

As for Demacia, after the low-flying Dragon Bird Knight issued an early warning, Jarvan IV immediately mobilized the Dauntless Vanguard, met the team that raided the grain road head-on, and ordered the engineer battalion to drag Galio to In the direction of the river bank, it serves as support for banning demons.

In this way, Noxus' most elite Trifari warband and Demacia's fearless vanguard started a short but high-intensity battle on the narrow river bank.

Trifari's regiment has an advantage in terms of numbers, and Swain's attack has been carefully calculated. Their attack formation can be fully deployed, and the subsequent spell support from the Arcane Blade Mage Group is just right.

As for the Fearless Vanguard, although they were at a numerical disadvantage, their individual combat effectiveness was superior, and with rune steel armor as defense, the spell bombing in a short period of time was not fatal - plus Galio was quickly pushed to the battlefield, and Austrian The Magic Blade Mage Group was forced to shut down, and they soon took the initiative in the battle.

If it weren't for the fear of the long-range firepower on the fortress city, Galen, who led the interception, would have even dared to rush under the wall of Fortress Tobitsia!

After receiving continuous reports that the Trifari regiment had no choice but to retreat after a battle and that its own supplies were successfully shipped, Jarvan IV, who was sitting in the central command, breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as supplies are sufficient and this camp is established, the Noxians will be trapped to death sooner or later!

Then, just as he was thinking about how to completely cut off the supply of Tobitsia Fortress next, the sailors on the ships crossing the river couldn't help but exclaimed.

"The boat leaked!"

Yes, the boat leaked.

During a night of light rain, the Foghars had already figured out the Demacian river crossing point, and lurked under the water of the Demacian route early. Although the Trifari Army was elite, it was actually just covering Swain. A feint with the real purpose, the real trump card of this strategist is this army of frogmen who have been waiting underwater for a long time!

When the grain ship entered the water, the Frogman Legion acted quickly. They first dug holes in the bottom of the ship to delay its movement. Then, the fire mages of the Flame Fist Mage Group who had also been ambushing nearby with the help of the Fogha people quickly appeared and took the first step. Time used his best fire spell.

Before the Demacia soldiers understood what was happening, the Tobitsia River seemed to be boiling. There were continuous fireballs, roaring fire dragons, raging fire snakes, and dozens of people working together to release weapons representing the Flame Fist Legion. The fists of flames fiercely bombarded these grain transport ships.

At the same time, the frogman army also completely spilled the fire oil they carried, and then suddenly dived down with the mages and left the battlefield without looking back, leaving only the food-carrying soldiers with no way to the sky and no way to the ground. , wailing in pain on the burning grain ship.

Under such circumstances, Jarvan IV had no choice but to pray to Morgana for help.

The fallen angels rushed to the battlefield quickly and used a large shield of darkness to protect the suffering soldiers, allowing them to avoid the flames and jump ship to escape.

But because the fire was so strong, the only people she could protect were the soldiers - there was really nothing she could do about the food that had already burned.

When the flames finally engulfed the last ship carrying grain and the tongues of fire licked up the last drop of kerosene on the water, the raging flames were finally extinguished.

The water of the Tobitsia River is still flowing westward, but the eyes of the Demacian soldiers looking at the river are finally a little different.

The previous night crossing made them think that this was a "one-sided natural danger" that was completely planned by them, but just now, the Noxian frogman army and the Flame Fist Mage Corps proved to them that this Under the slightly turbid waves of the river, there may be another different rule.

The originally high morale was burned down by the fire. Even Galen, who returned victoriously and obtained many high-quality black iron armors, could no longer laugh at this time.

From the perspective of the commander-in-chief of the entire army, Jarvan IV felt a sudden increase in pressure.

The army came over at night, but it failed to cut off the Noxians' food routes. Instead, their own food ships were attacked...

He even personally questioned many soldiers, but he didn't even find out who the enemy was!

According to the soldiers who came back from escaping, they first discovered that the ship was leaking. After slowing down, they saw a group of mages suddenly emerge from the river. They used fire magic to bombard the ship, and then there was a sheen of oil under the water. These mages seemed to be pulled into the water by something and disappeared completely.

From the beginning to the end, they didn't know how the boat leaked, nor how those mages could lurk quietly into the center of the river without any trace and then escape from the battlefield amid a fire.

Even though they almost died in the fire, they still couldn't understand the situation at all!

And not knowing the enemy's situation means that there is no way to carry out targeted countermeasures.

Facing an attack at the bottom of the river, the best way is to find some way to prepare some defensive means at the bottom of the river - but the Tobitsia River is the largest river in Demacia and the second largest river in Runeterra. How easy is it to do something at the bottom of a river?

In desperation, Jarvan IV could only order the mobilization of fishing nets from nearby fishermen and spread them over a large area on the river.

At the same time, he also ordered some of the forbidden magic stones in the North Shore Company to be dismantled and used as ballast stones for grain ships.

In addition, Morgana will also move with the ship and stop the spellcaster as soon as possible after discovering it.

After three insurances, Jarvan IV began to try to transport food for the second time.

This time the food finally arrived.

Except that the three ships were leaked and eventually sank to the bottom of the river, everything else went well. Swain only asked the Frogman Legion to harass them, and did not let the Flame Fist Mage Group act with them.

After seeing the food, Jarvan IV finally breathed a sigh of relief.

With this batch of food, the army crossing the river can last until the pontoon bridge is built. As long as there is a pontoon bridge, no matter what tricks the Noxians do at the bottom of the river, it will be meaningless!

Through the pontoon bridge, the Demacia army will completely surround Tobitsia Fortress!

But will Swain sit back and let Jarvan IV carry out his plans?

Of course it's impossible.

Taking advantage of the low morale of the Demacians and their full efforts to build the pontoon bridge, Swain finally summoned all the Noxian soldiers in the Tobitsia Fortress and issued detailed combat orders to all battle groups.

On Swain's battle map, dense markings have already been made, LeBlanc's futures body has been arranged in the predetermined position, and Demacia's army is spreading like pancakes as Swain hoped. spread out.

The silent messenger brought the signal of the blooming of the black rose, and Lamer was noisily pouring out his longing for his old friend in his ears. On the chessboard, the robberies had been arranged, and Swain stood on the wall of Tobitsia Fortress. above, his eyes seemed to see through the long night, and fell directly on the breath mouth of the dragon that represented Demacia.

"Take action."

Swain spoke in a hoarse voice, and at the same time pressed down with one arm, as if pressing down an invisible chess piece, officially starting this catastrophe.

Kalya’s Little Classroom·Jie He Zheng:

Jiezi and Zhengzi are both Go terms. The former means taking turns to raise the pieces, while the latter means killing on both sides of the breath - very consistent with the current battle situation in Tobitsia.
