In the east of Fort Tillman, in the vast land corrupted by evil energy, a fierce war has been going on for half a month, and the raging magic energy, holy power, elemental power, and evil can make this area useless, and now it is a human purgatory that appears in the mountains and plains at the junction of Feld and Suke Plains.

"The Undead Legion is more difficult to deal with than you think. Lundin-Reagan looked at the undead airship in the dim depths of the distance, worried. At this moment, the rotten flesh bombs with plague on the airship covering the sky and the sun were being dropped from top to bottom, smashing on the protective shield held up above the soldiers in front of them, and the violent explosion sound made people's eardrums itch and make the earth shake like an earthquake.

The task of the first group is to attract firepower on the frontal battlefield of Fort Tillman, so from the beginning Lendin Reagan faced an enemy five times his size, and now he is facing an undead army completely different from the undead army led by Eirk, and the wrong combat experience has caused Lendin Reagan to suffer for the past half a month.

"Obviously, the undead legions we are facing now are not at all comparable to the undead legions faced by the Herion and Elok realms before, they... Or are they..."Baron Parlett Tokes, the chief of staff of the Imperial First Army, who only took office last month, stared at the battlefield in front of him, grabbed the hay from the haystack and wiped the dust on his face, spat and said: "Their combat power is very strong, and it is not comparable to those puppet undead creatures before. ”

"For half a month, we couldn't even move forward. Lundin-Reagan frowned, "Two of the ten most elite corps of the empire are equipped with the most advanced magic energy muskets, and the magic guide barrier is even equipped to each of the low-level soldiers, and the empire's airships are concentrated in the sky above us to cover the ground advance, but half a month later, we are still standing still!"

The cold in the north has begun to erode the area over time, and the weather is getting colder day by day, and if it can't be attacked for a long time, the soldiers will have to fight in the bitter cold, and if it continues, the balance between the two sides will undoubtedly be broken. As a representative general who supported His Majesty's immediate attack on Fort Tillman, the anxiety in the heart of Lundin-Reagan was known only to him.

"My lord, though... We are the vanguard, but our mission is not to attack..."Palitt said more tactfully, "We only need to bite the 200,000 undead army on the opposite side, and we will not disrupt the layout of His Majesty the Emperor." ”

"But the problem is, we didn't bite it!" said Lundin-Reagan, who was a little unhappy, or rather didn't like the new chief of staff in front of him. After the reorganization of the whole army last month, the staff regiments of the four army groups located on the front line of the empire were all replaced, and the heads of the main departments were directly appointed and dismissed by the imperial military department.

What made Lendin Reagan even more uncomfortable was that Fred was actually appointed and dismissed as the Minister of War of the Empire, and entered the Military Aircraft Department to participate in the decision-making of the Empire, while he, as a member of the royal family and the uncle of His Majesty the Emperor, had to obey the orders of a mercenary after fighting on the front line for countless years.

"The 200,000 undead legions on the opposite side could be withdrawn at any time, but we still can't push any further. Lundin-Reagan frowned, his tone looking unfriendly, "And the 100,000 undead legions that have withdrawn, no matter whose war zone they join, will disrupt the balance of the entire front for half a month." ”

"Perhaps His Majesty the Emperor is waiting for the moment when the balance of the battle will be disrupted. Parit didn't care about his boss's disgust, "If the undead legion on the opposite side really withdraws half of it, our chance will come, and it will be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"

Lundin-Regan's eyes suddenly lit up for a moment, but then he remained silent as if he hadn't heard Paritt.

"What is Your Majesty's order in the morning?" asked Rendin Reagan after a long silence.

"It's still 'do your best to attack the undead army head-on!'. Parit replied as soon as Lundin-Reagan finished speaking.

"Yes!" a staff officer walked over as Lundin-Reagan nodded.

"The order of the chamberlain's office," said the staff officer, as he handed over the order, "Your Majesty will arrive at the front in three hours, and indicate that he is coming to us. ”

"Your Majesty is coming to us?" said Lundin-Reagan frowned, without any look of joy.

...

The Middle Battlefield, the front command post of the First Army of the Reich.

Lendin Reagan was giving a detailed report on the First Army's gains over the past half month, and Pedy maintained his usual composure, neither looking happy nor giving Lendin Reagan ugly look.

After nearly ten minutes of debriefing, Pedi picked up the detailed data report submitted by the General Staff.

The shouts of slaughter outside shook the sky, the footsteps of staff officers and battlefield scouts continued to echo, and after ten consecutive two-minute battle reports, Pedi put down the data report in his hand.

"In half a month, your report says that your troops have annihilated no less than 20,000 enemy troops..."Peidi raised his report, "but the report of the Military Intelligence Department and the Magic Monitor said... The undead legion on the opposite side lost less than two thousand!"

"Your Majesty!" Lundin-Reagan's eyelids fluttered, "This area is full of evil energy, it belongs to the main battlefield of the undead legions, and there are a large number of necromancers on the opposite side, most of the undead can be resurrected the next day after they fall, but... Our losses were not large, because of the magic barrier and the treatment of the paladins, most of the wounded soldiers could recover within three days, and the first legion basically lost nothing in half a month, except for the five thousand soldiers who died on the spot. ”

"There are no losses..."Peidi shook his head, "The First Army has knocked out nearly 10,000 kroner of supplies in half a month, and the total value of supplies consumed by each theater in the past half a month is more than 100,000 kroner!"

"The statement given by the Ministry of Finance shows that if we continue the current intensity of the war, we will consume almost three million crowns of strategic goods in a year. "That is to say, in a year's time, nearly eighty percent of the empire's civilian factories will be forced to convert to military use, although this can solve a large number of employment problems and speed up the construction of cities and towns everywhere, but the quality of life of the people will be set back by fifty years." ”

"I don't understand this!" said Lundin-Reagan very bluntly, "If Your Majesty has an order, just tell me that you can." ”

Pedy glanced carefully at Lundin-Reagan, and then at the other First Army officers in the command room.

When the officers bowed their heads one after another in humility under the gaze of the emperor, Peidi said: "Winter will soon begin, and the balance of the battle will definitely be upset after winter." As he spoke, he walked out of the humble command post and walked to the open place to look at the chaotic battlefield ahead, "Instead of passively waiting to get into trouble, it is better for us to take the initiative to break the balance of the battle situation." ”
