Magic Apprentice

The Bonn warehouse is not far from Hageroll ’s office, but even if the carriage moves slowly, it will take more than a quarter of an hour to arrive.

Before reaching the warehouse, the street was not as calm as before. There were groaning injuries on both sides of the street. Most of them were civilians, and a small piece of ground was scattered on the ground. Shavings.

Under the sunlight, these debris showed a bright and faint red light; at a glance, this street seemed to be lightly sprinkled with a layer of sunset light, so beautiful, but a little more beautiful desolate.

Somerlet leaned down and gently tapped with his finger, and the reddish powder immediately touched his finger.

Looking at the crystal clear red powder, Somerette shook his head with a wry smile.

The scene in front of them confirmed their previous guess.

No one knows better than Somerset. For them, what a huge loss it means, and more importantly, it is obviously impossible to make up for these losses, because the Kingdom of Redding has closed them tightly. door.

Whether it was in the light or in the dark, the transactions were all stopped.

These crystals, which were not originally expensive, have now become a closely controlled resource in the Kingdom of Reading.

When Somilete recovered from the deep frustration, he discovered that Hokors III had gone a long way.

Slowly following the emperor's majesty, Somilete glanced at the miserable scene around his eyes.

Obviously, in order to prevent a little bit of crystal from surviving, those Lydings used much more power than needed.

This terrible explosion affected many nearby buildings, but the more powerful, I am afraid it would be a shocking roar.

Most of those lying on the ground wailing and howling are not scarred, but Somilett is absolutely certain that they will often be in endless nightmares in the years to come.

Stepping on the floor of the reddish debris, there was a rustling sound under his feet.

Somilet felt as if he was stepping on the soft sand, but only he knew best how expensive this beautiful layer of sand was.

The further you walk, the thicker the red powder on the street will look.

And among those red powders, there was also a pile of broken rubble.

When they reached the end, the horrible scene shocked everyone. Although both Somilet and Milinda were well aware of what the bursting crystals full of energy had power.

But when they saw the damage caused by these beautiful crystals, any one of them was shocking.

Somerret didn't see any warehouse at all. All he saw was a vacant lot, and even the rubble was blown away by the terrible explosion to a far place. Around the vacant lot, there was a pile of ruins.

There may have been a luxury villa there, or maybe a very expensive building.

However, no one can imagine their original appearance now, and no one even struggles to rescue the person who was crushed under the rubble.

Somilet was almost certain that under the ruins, it was absolutely impossible for one person to survive.

He didn't even think that there were living people in the houses that looked far away.

Just a glance at the cracked wall, a glance at the completely broken window glass, a glance at the roof where the beams and pillars are exposed due to the peeling of the outer layer, you can imagine the people living inside, What kind of fatal injuries may be suffered.

Looking around, the prime minister did not see a corpse. Maybe the corpse had been lifted aside. Maybe it was so close. The people affected had already crushed the bones. The blast after the explosion, Blow far away.

Somerlet walked towards the open space.

There are only the wall roots and foundations left, which have been destroyed so thoroughly that he would never expect to find anything useful.

"How big is the loss?" Somilett gently patted Hagrid's shoulder standing on the pile of ruins.

At this time, Hokors III and Milinda also got together, "Although what was originally stored here is only a part of it, accounting for about one-third of all crystal deposits, but what is stored here is of the highest quality. Well, the crystals with the largest volume are enough to be worth 10,000 Kobe Leo. "Hegeilo said slowly.

Although he tried his best to behave quietly, but such a huge loss, after all, could not be seen as indifferent, not to mention, Hagero was not originally a magnanimous person.

"It seems that we haven't reached the point where the mountains and rivers are exhausted, isn't there still a lot of crystals in our hands? But I always feel very strange, how could this explosion be so thorough?"

"All the crystals were blown to pieces. I didn't even see a slightly larger particle. Even a powerful explosion is unlikely to cause such a result." Somilett said himself. The question in my heart, this matter really puzzled him deeply.

Hagrid and Milinda turned their eyes to the emperor who stood aside.

Because they know that only this guy may know the correct answer.

Horcos III gently twisted the crystal clear red powder with his toes. He could still feel the faint magic power, and slowly exudes from the crystal powder.

"These crystals are the most dangerous items in themselves, and we all know that as long as some magic power is infused into them, they can explode. If a little magic energy is infused into these crystals, after the explosion, although it may not be able to produce much power, but It's enough to make these crystals themselves into powder. "

"Of course we will not do such meaningless things ourselves, but our enemies can use this method to destroy our most precious resources."

"There must be a brilliant magician among the people who dived here, and this person has some way to inject all the crystals into the power of fire, and then only need a slightly more powerful crystal, and then everything is completed. Now, just need to detonate the powerful crystal, all of this will be turned into scattered rubble. "

Hearing this, Milinda frowned suddenly. Among these people, except her majesty the emperor, even she knew the magic best.

And led by Enleko into this mysterious land, she naturally has a completely different idea from other magicians.

"In this way, the Lyding people should not have carried too many burst crystals, at least not so much as to attract the attention of the magicians who guard the safety of Vedsk."

Regarding what Milinda suspected, Hokors III nodded his head and said affirmatively: "As long as you ask, the magician on duty yesterday will be able to learn, but I doubt that things are as you guessed, Lei The Ding people will definitely have some arrangements before carrying out this operation. I believe they have already tried repeatedly to bring how many burst crystals into the capital without attracting the attention of monitoring magic. "

"Then the magic energy injected into these crystals is also unlikely to be much." Milinda asked.

"I've already said that it doesn't take a lot, and it is enough to completely destroy the crystals themselves," Horcos III replied affirmatively.

He didn't find anything in this matter to be doubtful, but Haigeello next to him clearly knew what Milinda thought.

"So what is the reason for such a strong explosion? Isn't the strength of the explosion not necessarily related to the amount of magical energy." Haigeello asked impatiently, he was very urgent for the answer.

This time, even His Majesty the Emperor understood what was going on.

After frowning and thinking for a while, he nodded slightly and said, "Maybe, the real key is that all the crystals explode at the same time. Although their energy is not very large, they are superimposed together, which produces Unimaginable power. "

Somilett also nodded. In fact, in addition to Hagero, he is the person who most distressed these crystals, because these crystals were originally made by him in every possible way from the Kingdom of Reading.

"Now it seems that we no longer need to bother to hoard the crystals, hasn't we said that red glass is a cheaper but much lower quality alternative? Maybe, we can use quantity to make up for the lack of quality .Such as glass, I can definitely guarantee as much as you want. "Somilet said with a smile.

However, he found that Hagrid apparently did not listen to what he said.

I saw this guy standing there dumbly, with words in his mouth: "Explode at the same time ... At the same time ... At the same time ..." Suddenly, this guy's eyes lit up, and his eyes were bright.

At this time, he no longer has the sad and anxious expression just now, as if endless power poured into his body in an instant.

"Weak power, as long as the timing is accurate and at the same time explodes, can produce unimaginable destructive power."

"Those Redding people taught me something interesting. When the battlefield is no longer determined by steel and flesh and blood, it is very outdated to decide the strategy in the old way. The battlefield dominated by magic , It is undoubtedly the magic energy. "

Somilett looked at his old friend's excitement and quickly reminded him, "I'm afraid it's just your idea. If you want this idea to become a reality, I'm afraid you have to go through the battlefield test."

"Why not let Felt launch a full-scale offensive, on the one hand try the tactics you just thought of, on the other hand also make those Montittans really feel some pressure, let them take out their trump card as soon as possible . "

Haigeello glanced at Somerette: "Are you able to prepare for all attacks in such a short time?"

"What exactly do you need? Why not make a list? Maybe I can help you prepare it in the shortest time." Speaking here, Somilete glanced at Hagero.

The pair of Hupeng dog friends looked at each other and smiled, all with a hint of malice on their lips.

The Monty Steppe has been calm and calm, which made Enleco, who was originally worried about the war, feel a little relaxed.

In his view, the pace of war is still far away from them, at least until the hot and superfluous summer passes, the Kaoqi people will not attack.

Because of this, Enleco even took time out to study the "artificial uterus"

Enlek never thought that the war would come so suddenly.

When the news reached his ears, Enleco only felt like he had a nightmare.

Following the brigade, he only felt dull. The weather was originally clear, but in his eyes it seemed gloomy, full of unbearable depression, and it seemed dull and suffocating.

Even the grass on the field seemed to slump down on the ground.

As if everything in the world is mourning for what just happened.

As a special character, Enleco was crowded into the crowd, and this time he was riding a warhorse like everyone else.

They were the first troops to rush to the frontline for reinforcements. Although there were only 2,000 troops, they were all elites in the Unicorn Corps.

It was Duck, the future king, who was beloved by the captain of the Unicorn Corps. Enleco glanced behind him, he didn't know how many people were behind Ma Zheng, he could not guess whether this would be the beginning of a full-scale war.

In the air, the two Harrier Eagles were passing by quickly, and they used a clear cry to predict that there was no threat ahead.

Maybe the two Harrier eagles, the owner of one of them is Bashan, or maybe the scout who is looking forward is one of the people he is familiar with.

Since the bad news came, Enleco's mind was empty.

It is not that he has not experienced the battlefield, he has also been **** fighting, but he has never felt as powerless as he is now.

In the past, he was all fighting for himself, for his freedom and safety. All he needed to think about was that he had comrades fighting alongside him.

He has never been like a commander, using others' flesh and blood in exchange for victory in war.

Although he had hesitated, worried, and scared, he never thought that when the soldiers died, he would feel so guilty.

It seems that he sent these people to death.

Along the way, Enleco has always wondered whether he really qualified to command the battle.

After all, he is not Most, and the battle situation is so fast-changing.

A small mistake can make thousands of heroic soldiers pay their precious lives as the price of his failure.

Enleko hurried forward with a heavy heart.

The melancholy mood seemed to be drawing his physical strength, Enleco panted, and he felt very tired.

It was early summer, when the noon sun scorched the earth.

When the scout brought news of the front line, when the brigade reached the fortress for help, a strong **** smell ran straight into Enleco's nostrils.

To his surprise, behind the position, the west side of the fortress was covered with low graves. Duck waved his hand and let everyone dismount.

Everyone led the horses and walked slowly past the graveyard where the heroic Monteta soldiers were buried.

This is the only way for people to be alive.

This is the respect that these brave and fearless fighters deserve.

Everyone was immersed in a dignified and sad atmosphere, and no one made a slight noise.

Even the war horses seemed to be infected with this sadness. They walked gently without making any sound.

The gate of the fortress in the distance was already open, and an old man with gray hair stood on the fence.

A white cloth was wrapped around his head, and a little blood stains penetrated under the white cloth.

There was a long train of carriages beside the fortress.

The soldiers were carefully moving the things on the carriage down, and all of them carried scars on their bodies.

Duck instructed his deputy, and when the deputy ordered a team, he walked towards the carriage.

Enleco followed behind Duck, and the two went straight to the fortress.

As for the others, they immediately entered the position.

Everyone stayed in line, because no one knew when the enemy would attack.

Walking on the long slope, Enleco looked around in surprise.

The fortress is full of injuries.

Those who were lightly injured supported each other and sat there. They gave the precious open space to those who were seriously injured.

Despite the **** smell everywhere, Enlecco did not hear someone groaning.

"You finally arrived, I thought it would be difficult to support it anymore." The old man standing at the top of the fortress said slowly.

For the old man, Enleko's mind was faintly impressed.

In Enlek's memory, this old man can be regarded as one of the few good-minded characters in the Unicorn Corps.

No wonder he lost one by one as another stronghold, but only he still stuck to his position.

"How big is the loss?" Duck asked directly.

"I don't know the exact number. I only know that the defense line on my left has almost completely collapsed, and those four strongholds may have been captured."

"There are only about 1,300 people who can retreat here, but most of them have injuries. We are in urgent need of treatment now, and there is very little left in the" Holy Water ". The injuries of many people are gradually getting worse."

Speaking of which, the old man pointed to the wounded around him.

The wounded people were crowded together with five or six people, their heads, hands, and chests were tightly tied with bandages, and they stared blankly at the sky.

What are they thinking about in their hearts? Is it a tribute to the tribe? Or do you care about your wife and children?

As if to feel Enleco's gaze, some wounded patients slowly lifted their girls.

Duck nodded towards them, maybe he could only express it this way, and he thanked the **** warriors.

The injured patients nodded slightly towards this place, but their expressions were both vague and haggard. "What was the specific situation about the sudden attack launched by the enemy?" Duck turned his head and asked, the old man walked slowly to the other side of the fortress, all the way, he carefully avoided lying on the ground. Those injuries.

Duck and Enleco followed behind the old man.

Above the city walls, two guards standing guard were standing, their gazes were fixed on the distance.

The old man pointed to the plain on the northwest side, and the land was covered with blood stains.

Large pieces of pasture were trodden on the ground, exposing black soil.

There were scorch marks everywhere, and circular spots appeared on the ground.

* The earth wall nearby there has already become a broken tile, leaving only a few solitary sections looking intact.

On the contrary, the ditch looked quite complete, only a short period of time was destroyed by the explosion.

The old man pointed in that direction, as if recalling the tragic scene at that time.

After a while, he said slowly: "The Kaoqi people chose to attack at dawn. At this moment, there is only one team as the guard."

"And they put the whistle all night, they were already exhausted."

"Now think about it. It is really a matter of luck for us not to be completely destroyed like the other fortresses. The magician under me was especially careful. He first noticed the enemy sneaking in."

"He issued an alarm, which allowed us to survive, because the situation was unclear. I took a defensive strategy for the sake of insurance. I sent three teams to guard the defense line in front of the fortress, and ordered two cavalry teams to pay attention to the position On both sides. "

"Their duty is to prevent the enemy from bypassing the line of defense to attack the fortress at any time. Now I want to come. It is this that made us survive. The Kaoqi people did send back two troops to outsource from both sides and they hit me head-on. The cavalry sent out. "

"We have solid fortifications, and the Kaoqi have deployed many magicians."

With that said, the old man pointed to the distance again, and saw a line of defense several kilometers long, extending in that direction until disappearing on the horizon.

He also said: "I have never seen anyone use magic so intensively; it only lasted a few minutes, but the position was almost completely engulfed by the burst of flame. I suggest you go there to see, You must have a deeper experience of this battle after seeing the scene with your own eyes. "

Speaking of which, the old man sighed heavily, his sigh filled with sadness.

"However, you can be sure of one thing. Those trenches are really useful for reducing casualties. The position was almost completely shoveled, but my men survived in this terrible place."

"The two teams lost nearly half, but the surviving half managed to block the Kaoqi forward. They had to admit that the Kaoqi soldiers were also very brave. They jumped the trench and competed with my men. Every inch of position is really a thrilling battle! "

"The place where we have the advantage is that the weapon we use is a spear. I did not expect that this kind of thing can best exert its power in a narrow trench: and what they are stronger than us is that once they encounter a block, their magician will Will use the terrible magic to open the way. "

"Originally, I thought we had no hope of being able to support it. The only magician under my hands was at most capable of supporting the defensive magic of this fortress. He could not free his hands to deal with the magicians of the Kaoqi people. Because of this, I After sending out the signal for help, all the soldiers were ordered to join the position. "

"I'm worried that with the dense magic attacks of the Kaoqi people, even if we retreat into the fortress, I am afraid it is useless. Sooner or later, the fortress will be destroyed. It would be better to fight with the enemy in the position."

"When I put most of my subordinates into the battlefield, those Kaoqi people have broken through the first line of defense from the front where you are now seeing."

"Must be grateful for those mines that are really useful, but it ’s a pity that we do n’t have much in our hands, but our luck is not bad. When those mines were used, the Kaoqi people Just into the trench we have given up. "

"Our thunder bombs were not wasted at all. When we packed up the battlefield, we saw the bodies of the Kaoqi people piled up in the first trenches. There were almost no intact bodies, and their heavy armor , And in no way can withstand the power of the explosion. "

"This frustration seems to be a big blow to the Kaoqi people. They never made more attacks, and even the Kaoqi people who entered from both sides evacuated from the battlefield; I ordered my men A small counterattack was launched, and all the remaining mines were used by my subordinates in this counterattack. "

"The results were pretty good. Many of the Kaoqi people's bodies were dropped in front of the counterattack. Although the Kaoqi people gave up the full attack, they did not retreat because of this. These guys rely on magical advantages. The battle was opened at a distance where we could not attack them. "

"Their magicians threw a row of bursts of fire on our positions every ten minutes. Although only a dozen bursts were sparse, they brought us some casualties. I dare not let The men retreated back to the fortress because I was worried that the Kaoqi would attack again. "

"The Kaoqi people saw that this trick had no effect on us, so they concentrated all the magicians to attack this fortress. For a while, I even thought that I couldn't support it anymore, because our magicians were exhausted. Exhausted! "

"Several pieces of the outer wall of the fortress have also been cut off, and I am even worried that if I get on a few more times, the wall beneath our feet will completely collapse: you can see that there are already cracks here, but the real crack Near the bottom of the *, there is a place where even the entire arm can be extended. "Then, the old man stomped the ground with his feet.

The cracks on the ground shocked Enleco.

There are countless cracks extending under him, like earthworms crawling all over the wall.

The thickest crack extends all the way to a deep place, as if it were a sharp axe, slashing the marks left on the wooden board.

"The violent bombardment lasted for a full four hours. Eventually, the Kaoqi retreated from our position, and then there were soldiers stationed in the other two strongholds one after another, retreating to us, they brought the stronghold News of being broken. "

"I know roughly from their description that the Kaoqi attacked our four fortresses at the same time almost at the same time: each of the attacking teams had roughly seven or eight people, but it really cost us The heavy thing is the nearly one hundred magicians equipped in each offensive team. "

"Oh-by the way, there is something that has caused my subordinates to suffer considerable damage." Then, the old man brought Duck and Enleco to the corner of the fortress.

There are dozens of crossbows scattered scattered around there. The old man bent down and picked up two. He handed Enleko and Duck's hands Enleco to pick up the crossbow in his hand. As a crossbow, the weight of this thing was quite full.

Such a huge crossbow really did not meet his expectations. The two stretched out crossbow arms are nearly one meter in length. What makes Enleco even more surprised is that the crossbow arm is as wide as a palm, and is made of a refined steel bar as wide as a green bean. Such three layers of steel bars are tightly welded together, making this crossbow arm just Incredibly hard.

Enlecco used all his strength to open the bowstring.

It was hard enough to remind him of the unparalleled arch of the arch at Hagrid's mansion.

Next to him, Duck also made the same attempt. He pulled the bow and cross apart hard. His expression was full of surprises. Obviously, it was not an easy thing for him.

"I absolutely don't believe that everyone in Kaoqi can pull off such a crossbow." Duck shook his head again and again. "Even if he kicks with both feet, not everyone can open such a hard crossbow. "

"I'm afraid they have special machinery to help them complete this difficult task." Enleco pointed to the row of teeth on both sides of the crossbow.

"Every Kaoqi person seems to be carrying such a hard crossbow. It seems that they only intend to fire a crossbow arrow, but even if there is only one shot, my subordinates have suffered a lot of casualties."

"The arrows fired with this kind of crossbow can penetrate soldiers in heavy armor protected by magic, and those arrows can even penetrate the outer walls of the fortress." Then, the old man pointed to his feet.

Enleco looked on the tiptoe. As the old man said, on the wall of the fortress, you can see arrows with only a small tail exposed.

"Don't our bows and arrows have any effect at all?" Duck asked.

"Yes, we shot a magician this morning. Obviously this guy never thought that our bow and arrow could be constructed so high." The old man said.

Duck turned his head to look at Enleco, and the two nodded slightly.

"So tell me, what is the situation now? How many wounded? And how many others can participate in the battle?" Duck asked the old man.

"In addition to the soldiers who retreated to me from several other fortresses, this fortress now has nearly 3,700 people, of which only more than 1,000 are my men."

The old man said with a very painful expression: "Our men sacrificed a lot, and nearly two-thirds of the soldiers fell on the position in front of them."

Duck patted the old man's shoulder gently, he could only express his sympathy in this way.

"So what about the other strongholds? Is it possible for us to fight back?" Duck asked.

"I once sent my scout, and he exchanged his life for important intelligence. The Kaoqi people have pushed the front line to the fortress they occupied. Between them and us, there are only tens of kilometers." The old man said.

"Let me go and see, maybe I should do something about it." Enlecco said, and he said this in large part because of the guilt in his heart.

Looking at the **** fighting Montitas, suddenly, Enleco felt that it was no longer important to continue hiding his identity.

He turned his head and looked back.

Behind the fortress are rows of tombs, which are like trenches in front of the fortress, extending very far, almost looking down to the edge.

Hundreds of meters behind the pile of graves, there is a huge lonely tomb.

Enleco guessed that the Kaoqi soldiers who had been killed in battle were buried there.

Standing at the head of the city, he felt infinitely desolate for a moment, this is a world he was never familiar with.

There is no hope here, only death, either killing the opponent or being killed by the opponent.

Enleco seemed to be able to see the **** of death wandering here.

These melancholic gods, with their huge sickles in their hands, harvested the souls of the dead and brought them back to the nether Lord.

Enleco guessed that if there is something in this world that is closest to total despair, it is undoubtedly the battlefield.

He felt sad, deeply saddened by those soldiers who had died or were about to die.

Waving away the dullness of his mind temporarily, Enleco enveloped himself with invisible magic, and then flew towards the sky.

In the midair, he saw a long train of horses flying in the distance under the traction of eight horses.

A white flag fluttered in the front of the carriage, with the emblem of the goddess of life printed on the flag.

On the horizon, a faint dark cloud flew up, which was not a harbinger of the impending storm, but the army of thousands of horses was rushing towards here.

Seeing this and this situation, Enleco gradually let go of his heart and flew towards the distance.

In the camp of the Kaoqi Legion, the flag of the Command Palace was already flying high above the fortress wall. This is the fortress on the southernmost side, and also the most intact.

The Kaoqi Army, which has just won, is hurriedly constructing fortifications.

Because the trenches that were originally excavated by the Montatians are now behind them, they can't play a defensive role at all.

Although everyone in the Corps is still immersed in the joy of victory, both morale and combat effectiveness are at their peak.

However, the elderly commander still dared not take it lightly.

He was very worried that the counterattack by the Montitas might come soon.

As a soldier, he knows how terrifying the anger of revenge is, not to mention that he believes that the Montitas have enough means to retaliate.

This elderly commander has no way of predicting whether his deployment will be successful, and he does not know whether the two magicians of great strength can keep the regiment safe.

He gently tapped the map on the table with his fingers. In his view, the plan was too risky, but he had no choice.

Just as the elderly commander felt a little dizzy, there was a sound of a light knock on the door outside.

"Herp, are you?" The old commander asked, his voice a little low.

The door was gently opened, and the chief of staff walked in slowly.

Under his arm, there was a stack of thick files.

"Has the battle results analysis report been made?" The old commander asked.

His old friend of many years put the thick file gently on his desk.

Marquis Felt sat down slowly. He put on his glasses and gently opened the file box.

After reading through a few reports, the elderly commander asked directly: "Is there anything in particular that I need to pay attention to? I'm not going to waste time and read a lot of descriptions of how to win."

"It is undeniable that this is indeed a major victory. You have fought very well in this battle, not inferior to any victory won by the Duke of Hagerello in Feltland." The chief of staff said with a smile .

"When did you learn to speak compliments?" The elderly marquis shook his head slowly.

"This is a fact." The chief of staff insisted.

"The fact is, according to the original plan, we should occupy the five most strongholds around. But now there is one more stronghold in the hands of the Monti."

"This puts us in an extremely embarrassing situation. Our right side is exposed to the heavy soldiers of the Montita. This is not the battlefield I hope to have a decisive battle."

With that said, the elderly commander pushed the map on the table to the chief of staff.

"We are now more than two hundred kilometers away from the line of defense we built ourselves, and all around us are all Montita fortresses. This isolated fortress is stuck there like a child, making it difficult for me to move. "

"Before unplugging this son, I didn't even dare to sleep peacefully, and my corps had to guard against three directions at any time to guard against the sudden attack of the Montita."

The chief of staff knew exactly what the old friend was worried about and worried about.

He also understood how awkward the current situation was.

Half of this attack is far less than the situation of confrontation with each other.

"It's really a pity that if you put in another regiment, you might be able to capture the fortress in one fell swoop." The chief of staff said with a sigh.

"I don't want to let the soldiers suffer losses in plain sight. The one stationed in that fortress is obviously a guy who knows how to fight. I have lost half of the legion and killed more than 3,000 soldiers on the position. Exceeded it, I lost my strength in the other three strongholds. "

"You and I should be very clear, as Duke Hagero said, on this battlefield, steel and flesh are not useful at all. When those brave soldiers broke through the first line of defense, when they occupied The outermost trench. "

"At that moment, I made one of the biggest mistakes of my life. According to past experience, this is a symbol of victory. I mistakenly put a whole regiment into a trench narrow enough to be fatal."

"This is the biggest mistake I have made. It turns out that in the battlefield ruled by magic, it is useless to invest too much troops. Even if the hard armor has magic layers of protection, it can't resist the violent. The explosion of, in the narrow tunnel, no matter how brave the warrior is, he has no room to escape. "

"Full of the two squadrons were sacrificed on the position. Before that, we still had an absolute advantage. For a moment, our advantage has been lost."

The elderly commander showed a very dignified expression.

"The guy stationed in the fortress obviously knows how to use the power of magic. His skill is high, and he knows how to grasp the timing. You should remember how he organized the lightning-fast counterattack."

"It's like a viper, suddenly flew out of hiding place, bite hard, what a skill, I watched thousands of departments fall down in front of me, they sacrificed like this Now. "

"They used to be the invincible legion. They used tomahawks and long swords to frighten the kingdom of Feltila. The thick shield in their hands made them invincible. Before that, their opponents were not miserable. The next step is to surrender because of fear. "

"But yesterday, in that firelight, they were like dummies made of straw, bang-and then ... then there was nothing, who knows how many burst bombs are still in the hands of those Montitas ? Without certainty, why should I let my men sacrifice in vain? "

The chief of staff nodded, he quickly comforted: "At least we learned a trick to know how to use those powerful weapons."

The elderly commander pointed to the stack of files and asked, "Have you written all these in the report?"

"Of course, this was originally one of our jobs. Hagero sent you and us to serve as front-line commanders, not to let us experiment with him and find out how to use these weapons and how to be on this new battlefield. Seek survival and victory. "

Speaking of which, the chief of staff frowned suddenly. He whispered: "There is something that must be reported to you. We seem to have just lost a magician. He went to patrol but never returned, and we are responsible for surveillance. The magician said that the missing magician suddenly disappeared from his perception. What is even more strange is that when the magician disappeared, there was no obvious trace of someone performing magic. "

The old commander glanced at his friend. He was silent for a while and then tentatively asked: "Is it the person who worries us the most that has come to the isolated fortress?"

The Chief of Staff did not dare to answer this question casually, because he knew very well that this matter was of great importance.

"Our work wasn't temptation originally? Hagero was kind to us. He didn't send those two characters. We just need to do our job." The chief of staff said with a smile, in his smile Full of helplessness.

"Yes, we only need to take care of our work. This is the value we have." The old commander also sighed helplessly.

It took a while for him to refresh himself.

"Herp, you can help me sort out the results of this battle. This is something for us to see. There is no need to make those vague words. Especially the failure, everyone in the Corps has to learn from it. Learn a lesson, and what we should learn from the enemy ’s extremely high tactics. "

"The last thing is that you have to prepare a report and ask the Armaments Department to mobilize more explosive bombs as soon as possible. The more the better, the future battlefield, I am afraid that whoever prepares better will be able to obtain victory."

The chief of staff looked serious this time, and he answered with a straight chest: "Yes, following your orders, I will immediately proceed to prepare."

Speaking of which. He paused and asked, "The storm may be coming in a few days. Can we use this opportunity to carry out another attack? The storm will prevent the enemy from counterattacking."

"I'm afraid that the Montitas are also fighting this idea. Our foothold is not stable, and their desire for revenge is hot. There is no need to fight with them at this time."

The old commander's words made the chief of staff nod slightly.

"Awesome, extremely keen judgment, and calm and cautious, no wonder that Duke Haigeello proposed that you serve as commander of this regiment."

Suddenly, another person's voice came from the room.

As soon as the words fell, a figure appeared in the corner of the wall. I saw him wearing a red robe and even covering his face under the brim.

"Mr. Dereksi, are you too rude to do this?" The old commander said coldly with a sullen face.

"I just don't want others to be aware of it. Some things need to be kept secret." Dreykes said quietly.

For a moment, this small office was filled with a mysterious and tense atmosphere.

"What is Duke Hagero's plan for me to implement?" The old commander said solemnly.

"Not what Lord Duke meant, I just have one thing to remind you."

"Perhaps the Monty's counterattack did not come before the storm. Although you know war much better than me, you do not know the world of magicians after all."

"That terrible storm may be a big trouble for you and your soldiers. In your opinion, no one may choose to launch an attack at this time."

"However, for the magician of extraordinary strength, storms, thunder and lightning are simply the most powerful allied forces. As long as we easily deploy the incomparable power between heaven and earth, we can give our opponents a fatal blow. In fact, what is needed to complete this work is not even a powerful magic, but only a high skill. "Hearing what Drechs said, the old commander and his chief of staff looked at each other.

They saw fear and worries from each other's eyes.

Because the two of them did not understand the mysteries of the magic world, but they knew the horror of these amazing magicians.

"In your opinion, how should we redeploy?" Marquis Fuerte asked.

"Don't I just say that? As for the military, your Excellency is the real expert. I just put forward my point of view, and at the same time, try to help you as much as I can," Drechs said slowly.

Hearing this mysterious magician said this, the elderly commander immediately frowned.

He sat down slowly, spreading the map in front of himself.

His friend was also close to the desk. He also frowned, and kept analyzing the current situation in his mind.

"Felter, my old friend, it seems that we can no longer stay here." The chief of staff said by clicking on the map.

"However, if we retreat rashly, the enemies may be wiped out halfway."

The chief of staff pointed to the large open space and said: "We are too far away from the fortress behind us. It is not so easy to pass through this large open space."

"Mr. Draykers, can you cover the eyes of the Montitas with magic?" The chief of staff asked.

"Although I can do it, but if there is a high-level magician hidden in the corps approaching Montyta, maybe he will be able to see through the magic I cast." Dreykes said slowly.

"However, if during the period before the storm, you are sure to be able to retreat to the fortress behind, I can take the risk and try it, maybe I will be able to cover the sight of the Monti people." Drechs raised himself Suggestions.

The old commander and his chief of staff glanced at each other, and they saw a deep worry in the other's eyes.

"Can the speed of our retreat withstand the storm that swept through? Wouldn't it be a self-defeating way if we were caught in the storm and exposed to the grassland?" The chief of staff warned carefully.

"Maybe we can evacuate some of the horses before the storm, throw away all unnecessary luggage, and leave a warhorse to each of the soldiers who left last. Maybe we can run a race against the storm." The old commander looked solemnly Said.

"Now, how many follow-up troops have come here without advancement?" Marquis Felt asked.

The chief of staff thought for a while and replied: "The seventeenth, eighteenth, and nineteenth squadrons staying behind the fortress. The tenth and eleventh squadrons are responsible for protecting luggage and supplies.

"This morning, the Thirteenth Squadron just met with us. It is the last fiveth squadron. That is to say, there are four squadrons on the road behind. The sixth and seventh squadrons are responsible for protecting our flanks. "

"That is to say, only nine regiments have arrived and entered the position. The four main regiments participating in the battle each have injuries."

"The worst loss is undoubtedly the fifth squadron. They have only one-third of their troops left. In addition, the first army that launched the attack has also suffered a lot. Their opponent is obviously a deadly guy. The only thing that is fortunate is that in terms of casualties, we still have won. "

The elderly commander slowly shook his head and said, "It's better to have such a victory. We are so well prepared and beat them by surprise. We still have to lose so many soldiers. If the opponent is prepared "Aren't we going to wipe out the whole army?"

With that, the Lord Marquis drew a long horizontal line on the central axis of the open space with a pen.

"Let the corps that has not arrived yet stay here, and let the eighth and ninth squadrons replace the positions of the first and fifth squadrons, and they will guard the occupied defense lines."

"As for the two regiments that were replaced, let them retreat to the fortress at the rear. Presumably, the Montatians will not think that we are gradually redeploying our troops."

"In this way ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ there are only seven regiments that need to race against the storm, but there is no need to retreat without fighting, leaving three regiments to let those Montitas understand that they are not the only ones Know how to defend your position bravely. "

"It's a very smart deployment, and it leaves me room to play." Draykers said slowly, his appearance looked so mysterious.

"However, can I suggest to you, leave more people, anyway, a decisive battle will come sooner or later, it is better to take the opportunity of our morale to give the Montitas a heavy blow."

The old commander glanced at the mysterious magician, and after a moment of thought, he solemnly asked: "Is this the meaning of the lord, or the strategy that Lord Duke Hagero has already formulated?"

Unexpectedly, Lord Marquis, Dreykes shook his head slowly.

"I never like to make my own claims, and I don't have to listen to the orders of Lord Duke. I am the emperor of the emperor. I only obey the will of His Majesty."

The elderly commander nodded, and the chief of staff standing next to him also understood everything.

The two looked at each other as if they were much older in a flash.
