Section 4 Situation
The drums outside the city thundered, and under the faintly audible shouts of killing, the voices of those who loudly questioned and offered conditions were so abrupt.
"The war outside the city is not over yet, don't you think your request is so ridiculous?"
"Cowardly coward, does the battle outside the city scare you?"
"Your ancestors were disgraced by your presence, are you still worthy to be a Elok?"
Before Cove-Rambo could explain, some young people excitedly refuted it.
"The gods can testify!" Corway-Rambo took the opportunity to roar loudly, "The ancestors of the Rambo family can also testify, I promise that the killing will not take place in the Elok Territory, and I will work for the peace of the Elok Territory for the rest of my life, and the descendants of the Lambo family will also work for this." ”
The Rambo family has a high reputation in the Elok Territory, or at this moment, the city of Elok has no choice. So, after Cove-Rambo made a promise in the name of the family, a quarrel that was about to break out immediately dissipated.
After saying this, Cove-Rambo nodded slightly, and then took two steps back with graceful aristocratic steps.
The presentation is over.
...
In the Archon's personal office, the Archon's personal office, which was originally full of people, only five officials are still performing their duties, making this office reveal a feeling of depression and loneliness from the inside out.
Cove-Lambbo was standing by the window of his private office at the moment, looking out at the bustling crowd at the intersection outside the building, watching those people walk around in a hurry, and his face no longer had the haughty posture he had before.
The door of the "Ka" office was gently pushed open, and the secretary general of the office, Buniel Carr, took a piece of information and gently walked into the office that had become very quiet at some point.
"You say, is there any difference between us and them?" Cove-Rambo whispered as he stared at the pedestrians below.
"What are you talking about, my lord?" Buniel-Karl didn't even hear Cove-Rambo's whisper clearly, his professional habits made him instinctively ask.
"Nothing. With a wave of his hand, Cove-Rambo opened the half-open window completely, allowing all the summer heat outside the city to pour into the house, and making the shouting and killing from the west of the city clearer.
Cove-Rambo listened intently to the noise of the citizens inside the city and the shouts of killing outside the city, and turned his head to look at his secretary general, "What's the news?" he was attracted by the letter with an obvious code in Buniel-Carr's hand in the middle of his sentence, so he quickly asked, "Is there news from there?"
"Yes. Buniel Carr nodded rigidly, "Fipott Bob left the Capitol building alone and returned home after your speech, and then the monitoring device of the Mage Tower immediately detected a very strong energy fluctuation of space spells coming from his villa. ”
"Are you sure?" Cove-Rambo clenched his hand on the window edge.
Buniel Karl looked at the information in his hand again, and said with certainty: "The people from the Mage Tower said that it can be determined, because the spatial energy in the Fipott Bob Villa fluctuates greatly, enough to teleport ten people!"
Cove-Rambo's eyes widened when he heard this, and then he let out a sigh as if he had let go of something, "Before you come in, I really hope everything we speculated before is false... Do you remember the day Fippert Bob found me three years ago?"
"Unforgettable!" Buniel-Carr's deep gaze was filled with deep memories.
"yes, I remember it too. Cove-Rambo said with some emotion: "At that time, I was in a state of malaise when I had just returned from the front line of the Empire, and it was the impassioned language of Fipert Bob that moved me, and we had the war of independence that followed. ”
"But anyone changes. Buniel-Carr reverted to a stereotypical expression, and his language became sensible.
"Yes, anyone can change, even I have changed. Cove-Rambo nodded, pinched the bridge of his nose slightly, and asked, "The city is still stable, right?"
The expression on Buniel-Lahr's face when he heard this question couldn't help but become more serious, and he didn't answer it immediately, and after thinking seriously for more than ten seconds, he said at a slow pace: "It can only be said that it is still within our control... Originally, the contradictions in the city were at a critical point, and your speech just now undoubtedly put the contradictions on the table, so there will definitely be no shortage of battles in the secret. ”
"It's good if there is fighting, and the more chaotic the city is, the better. Cove-Rambo turned around and closed the window, whispering, "Sir Bowenwright's plan was to make the city a mess. As he said this, he suddenly raised his head and stared at Buniel, "It's going to be messy, but it can't be really messy, understand?"
"I'm not worried about anything else, I'm worried about something wrong with Fippert-Bob. Buniel-Carr didn't look like he could do anything, but was very cautious about raising his doubts.
Covey Rambo grinned, gently pressed his aching teeth with his hand, slowly walked back to his desk, opened the cigar box on the table, and said, "Fipott-Bob has someone to deal with him. ”
"Daric Danny?"
"Yes, that's him!" Covey Lambbo chuckled under his breath, "I can't help but laugh just thinking of Darick Danny and Fiportt Bob turning against each other." After he said this, he laughed out loud, the loose skin on his old face trembled slightly with his smile, and the ridicule in his eyes turned into self-deprecation as his smile gradually deepened.
"When did our neighbors become so powerful?" Covey Lambbo muttered after lighting his cigar, "The kingship of Pedy Reagan is affecting each and every one of us, and even figures like Fipert Bob are afraid of his power, forcing him to cooperate with the devil, and proud people like Derrick Danny are forced to bow to his scepter." ”
"And ourselves," Corve-Rambo said, biting his cigar, and his voice grew quieter, "including some of the citizens of the Elok Territory, as well as the nearly a million civilians in the northern territory of the Elok Territory, who would rather sleep in the open than stay in the city." ”
"As a ruler, I'm a real failure. ”
"My lord, I don't think there's anything wrong with your previous decision. "Whether it's the war with the Empire, the cooperation with the elves, or the strategy against the Suke Plains, I think it's the right decision... Without the advent of the Undead Legion, we couldn't have been so embarrassed. ”
"No, you're wrong, even without the Legion of the Undead, we would have ended up with destruction, and we would have been greeted with a fate worse than this. Cove-Rambo sat down in his office chair and leaned back at the somewhat dilapidated ceiling, "I've been trying to find a way to control the Suke Plains, and I've even given Peddy Reagan a large area of northern Iruk territory for this. ”
"We all thought that this would satisfy the young ruler's appetite, but in fact the young ruler didn't take us seriously, and perhaps in the map of his office, the El Luk Territory was already his point of attack. "At that time, we were tempted by the big cake in Suke City to lose our direction, but Fipott Bob kept his sanity and kept us reminded of the eyes from the east, but we turned a deaf ear to it. ”
"When Iruk City was in danger, it was also the Kingdom of Kruria that Fipott Bob first contacted, but then we kicked him out with the distribution of benefits from the Yekjar military port. Cove-Rambo smiled self-deprecatingly again, "So, we're not in a position to comment on whether he's right or wrong... Also, if we win again this game, remember to keep the winner's posture and let Fippert-Bob get the treatment he deserves. ”
"I see. ”
...
The battle to the west of Elok went on fairly well, and at around three o'clock in the afternoon, a huge legion of five hundred magic golems swept away the undead legions that stood in their way with absolute strength, completely occupying the stronghold on the right and destroying the evil altar built there.
The military report reached the command platform, and Bowenwright calmly said "I know", and immediately ordered the army on the right to attack the undead legion's middle stronghold from the flank to relieve the pressure on the middle battlefield.
The military order was quickly conveyed,
And the scorching sun on the horizon slowly set in the bloody battle, and night once again descended on the Eluk Territory.
Tonight, the battle outside Iruk City did not change between attack and defense as usual, and the huge offensive of the coalition forces not only did not weaken a single point in the night, but strengthened a lot.
The mid-lane battle, which had been stalemate for a day, finally broke through the strong defense line arranged by the undead army on the periphery under the attack of two fronts.
At around eight o'clock in the evening, the First Legion of Elok City plunged like a sharp knife into the stronghold of the Undead Legion.
The good news was quickly delivered to the command platform, but Bowenright did not bother to pay attention to the good news, because he was now buried by the urgent military reports from Major General Barker of the 'Adiri Line' every ten minutes.
"If you don't reply to Rear Admiral Barker, he will keep sending such letters until the 'Adiri Line' collapses..."Hades looked at the mountain of military newspapers, glanced at the nearby staff officers who did not dare to approach, thought for a while, and said: "Most of the officers of the Combined Fleet are the descendants of the nobles of the kingdom, and your doing so is equivalent to destroying the entire Combined Fleet, even if you win this war, I am afraid that it will not be easy to explain to the country later." ”
"What's going on on the battlefield in the middle lane, with a huge army of magical puppets on the flanks and 10,000 kingdom elites to respond, it took a whole day to tear a small hole?" Bowenwright didn't seem to hear Hades's advice, and he reprimanded loudly: "If Chardric can't do the errand of the front-line commander, go back to the logistics office for me to count the food!"
A local staff officer was very unconvinced: "In order to tear this gap, the First Army of the Principality of Suluk has paid heavy casualties, they..."
Bowenwright was obviously in a bad mood at the moment, he rudely interrupted the staff officer's words and said in a deep voice: "The war is not over yet, don't report the casualties to me, all I want is an answer." ”
"Your Excellency. Hades pointed to the flanks on the map, "Although the Botlem Treasure Golem Corps arrived on the flank of the center according to your orders, their attack was merely for show. ”
"These damn mages, I knew it was going to happen. Bowenwright slammed his fist on the edge of the table where the map was laid, causing the staff officers around him to bow their heads in fright. "You go... You go to the stronghold on the right in person. He pointed to Hades, "You go and tell Botlem that if he continues to delay the plane, the entire battle of the Eluk Territory will face defeat." ”
"Your Excellency, you should be more concerned about Major General Barker's military report now. Hades couldn't help but remind again.
"Ending the war here as soon as possible is the greatest help to Major General Barker. Bowenwright's indifferent gaze glanced at Hades, "So, go find a way to get Botelem to move the magic puppet of the Mage Tower!"
"I'll do my best. Hades swallowed everything back into his stomach in the face of his boss's indifferent gaze, and quickly accepted the order.
"Tell Chadrik that I'm going to see tangible results in two hours. Bowenright turned his head to the herald beside him after Hades left, giving the order.
The herald's war horse galloped on the main road of the camp, and the soldiers on the road saw the hunting and flying flags in the wind, and they all subconsciously retreated to both sides, and Bowenley's order was quickly conveyed to the front command in the middle lane.
Two hours seemed like a moment for a warrior in a bloody battle, but for a commander waiting for the outcome of the war, time seemed to be frozen forever.
At ten o'clock in the evening, the central lane was attacked by the assault team led by the front commander Chadric himself, and successfully broke the outer defense line of the undead army.
Then, the magic puppet corps on the flanks suddenly pressed in all directions.
The two sides engaged in a bloody battle near the Altar of Evil, a stronghold in the middle lane.
The bloody battle continued until one o'clock in the morning, and most of the troops of the Undead Legion began to withdraw from their strongholds one after another, besieged on both sides.
After receiving the military report written by Chadric himself, Bowenlet, who was on the command platform, immediately called a letter he had prepared to his lieutenant, and instructed: "Use the fastest magic teleportation to Major General Buck of the 'Adiri Line'." ”
...
Buck is very uncomfortable now, and the three important strongholds of the 'Adiri Line' will face collapse, especially the defense area where the Mage Tower is stationed in the middle route, and now at the forefront is the heavy cavalry corps that has abandoned its war horse.
The letter of request for help sent to the werewolf corps is always only a four-word reply: it will be there soon.
But Barr had been waiting since six p.m., and by the time seven hours had passed, the werewolf legion's 'coming soon' had still not arrived.
Letters urging supplies to the military port of Yekjar seemed to sink into the sea, and countless military reports sent to the headquarters of the city of Iruk received no reply.
"My lord, the explosives and tar in the left earthen wall defense zone will soon run out. Ernest hurried into the headquarters, "I just went to the logistics office, there is nothing to use there, even the replacement weapons are almost used up!"
