Release that Witch

"How is the situation in the west?"

Nail and Sang Shugang walked into the central camp, and the commander of the North Station garrison, "Eagle", couldn't wait to ask.

"The number of the group is still growing," the veteran went to a military ceremony and told the week of the surveillance trip. "It was shocking. I didn't expect the Dawn Kingdom to make so many soldiers." ”

“How much?” The eagle didn’t care, and poured two cups of tea. “Eight thousand? Or nine thousand?”

"I am afraid that there will be more than 10,000 people," Sang Shu said, drying out the tea. "The tent is stretched out nearly one mile. The name of the banner is at least 20 or more. I don't know where they came from." These are dead ghosts."

"More than 10,000?" The pen in the hand of the eagle stopped.

"If you don't believe, you can ask the squad leader," he pointed to the nail next to him. "In order to estimate the approximate number, we risked being discovered and approached the old holy city for investigation. The suburbs of the whole city are the morning nobles. Soldiers and horses, they blocked the passage of Hermes and the morning kingdom. Most of the refugees have turned their heads to the wolf heart and the direction of the winter. The cold winds should be a lot more, at least on the way back. I saw a few teams of no less than 100 people."

"The actual situation is indeed like this," the nail nodded. "The morning squatting should be waiting for the people to gather together, and the alert to the surrounding area is also enhanced. I suggest that the follow-up investigation team should not be too close to the old holy city to avoid being The other patrol knight found out."

Since the detection of the strangeness of Hermes, the Northland garrison began to infiltrate the plateau with the assistance of the Duke of Kant. In addition to hoping to obtain more information, it is also preparing for the next battle. However, His Majesty did not approve the Eagle's temptation attack plan, only to maintain vigilance and continue to investigate. The deputy battalion commander had no choice but to suppress the idea of ​​a big one. While picking out the right candidates from the garrison, he dressed up as a refugee to take turns monitoring the new and old holy city while continuing to send information to the winterless side.

Of course, he did not do nothing in these few months. He confirmed that the Holy City was not using the plan of the suspects, and the Northland Garrison regained the cold winds.

As for the appearance of the morning army, it was two or three weeks ago.

"Adult, are you worried that this group is not good for your actions?"

"Hahaha, how is it possible," the eagle laughed. "Even if their numbers doubled again, they were only a target of slowness in front of the First Army. Even the Prisoners could not break through the line of defense of machine guns. They Why do you touch the feet of your knees? On the contrary, many people are good. Let them go to the wall of the holy city and try the bottom of the church. It is best to fight both. If you really get to that step, you will definitely agree with me. The plan." He paused. "This round of investigations has worked hard for you. Let's go to rest first."

"Yes, adults," said Sang Shu.

The nail did not turn away, but hesitated and said, "We can't...repel them in advance?"

The two are all together, "What?"

"Your Majesty does not agree that we will attack Hermes on our own, but it does not mean that we will not allow us to block the morning army?" The nail bit his lip. "If they wait for their attack on the Holy City, the mountain under Hermes may have become a piece." Ruins."

The veteran sighed.

"Do you see anything?" The eagle frowned.

"The looting and the slaughter..." The nails slammed their foreheads and almost did not want to recall the **** scenes. "They have not yet entered the old holy city, but they are stationed outside, and the surrounding residents are caught by them and worn one by one." On the wooden stick, then use such a wooden stick to make the lock wall of the camp. As for the women, the end is even worse."

"Enough," the eagle interrupted his words. "This is a common thing in war! Whether it is the church or the morning kingdom, it is the enemy of the enemy. It is better to let the enemy consume the enemy than to consume ourselves! And not Forgetting that we are the army, it is the sword in your hand! Killing is also our duty."

"But that's not the same!" nails insisted. "We are fighting to achieve our goal, but they are simply killing for killing. The villagers are not believers. They can be in front of them, even the prey is not as good. !"

"Adult, he just got a little excitement," seeing the eagle's face showing an unpleasant look, Sang Shu quickly said, "You are also, knowing what you are saying, as long as the church does not fall, we can't be under their eyes." How can you stop the morning gang from the Hermes Plateau?"

The New Holy City is like a huge fortress, connecting the flat areas of the plateau as a whole. The four surrounding gates correspond to four passages to various kingdoms. Although they are now unguarded, refugees are free to enter and exit, but it does not mean that the church will sit and watch. A commander of the army drove straight in and entered the morning city through the holy city.

The nail naturally knows this, and he takes a deep breath. "In fact, there is still a small road to pass."

"The path?"

“When I came back, I talked to some of the refugees. One of them told me that there is a two-person wide path in the seemingly steep cliff outside the plateau. In winter, it will be closed due to snow and ice accumulation, but snowing After that, this road can directly traverse Hermes without entering the holy city."

The eagle looked at him for a while, then shook his head. "Forget about it."

The nails bowed their heads and stopped talking.

"In fact, you also know that this is not a reliable... No, it should be said that it is a battle plan that cannot be realized at all." The deputy battalion commander did not accidentally get angry. "Don't mention whether the path really exists, even if it can be successful." When we arrived at the old holy city, we couldn't defeat the tens of thousands of enemies in one fell swoop. In the evening tutoring class, it was very clear. Before the military action, the first thing to consider was logistics. The wide mountain roads and light transportation are difficult. Not to mention machine guns and ammunition. In addition, there are only 500 troops stationed in the entire north, and the bullets donated are not enough to support a protracted war. Once the enemy is not defeated, we will become a lonely army without assistance. may!"

The eagle stood up and walked over to the nail. "I want a thorough annihilation war more than you, but that is just my personal thought. Your Majesty and the Axe gave this army to me, then I must first What is considered is the safety and interests of the military. Whether it is the previous resettlement of refugees or the current decision, do you understand?"

"...Yes, adults." The nail clenched his fist and eventually he did a military ceremony.

"Go on."

Just as the two were about to leave, a soldier walked in and opened the curtain. "Adult, Roland’s reply to the other side has arrived."

"Oh? Show me a quick look," the eagle quickly took over the secret letter. He hadn't waited for the nails and Sang Shu to get out of the tent. He stopped them again. "Wait!"

"Is there any new instructions under your majesty?" the veteran asked.

"Yes, the First Army has already departed from Wangdu by boat and is heading north at full speed. It is expected to arrive in the Windy Ridge ten days later."

Ten days... It’s too late, and the nails are saddened to think that the morning army may enter the old holy city at any time. In just one or two days, they can turn all the towns under the mountains of Hermes into hell. In the meantime, the woman in red, struggling in the rain of bullets, once again appeared in front of his eyes, as if accusing him of what he was doing.

"Before this, His Majesty asked us to take immediate action to prevent the morning army from entering the Old Holy City and at least not let them rob the monastery."

The nail jerked up.

"This... can you do it?" Sang Shu touched his head.

"It's very difficult, so the Majesty sent a special reinforcements and will arrive in the north tomorrow night." The eagle closes the secret letter. "The only one who can get there at this speed is the witch." Then he looked Two people, "Go to inform all the squad leaders to come to my meeting here! Yes, what is the name of the refugee who knows the mountain road?"
