Chapter 205: The Summoner's Prestige
In October, the autumn wind is bleak, and the weather is gradually getting colder, and the spirit of the soldiers is gradually withering, after all, everyone does not like to fight in an icy environment.
In order to maintain the combat effectiveness of the army, Yelon began to shrink the battle line, gathered all the cavalry that had harassed the opposing forces before, and prepared to temporarily retreat to the Twin Cities for repairs, and wait for the next spring to attack the Redstone Fortress.
Celian saw the opportunity to launch a sneak attack on Yelon's army.
"Lord Syrion, Yelon's army is tightly arranged, can we succeed in this sneak attack?"
"Augustus, don't worry, my sneak attack will not fail this time, you stick here, you must ensure the safety of the redstone fortress, don't rush out of the city. ”
Armed with an elite summoner guard, Sirian sneaked through the darkness of the night and came to the vicinity of Yeron's army.
"Lord Syllian, we're close to the enemy now, do you want to launch a surprise attack?"
"Don't worry, let's go inside, hide in the enemy's camp, and then release the summoned creatures to launch a surprise attack, now is not the best time!"
The group dealt with the sentry, touched several tents in a row, and eliminated the surrounding soldiers.
Sirian said to one of the summoners, "Release the Earth Elf, dig a tunnel here, and then let's hide in the tunnel for the time being!"
After a while, a large tunnel that could accommodate 100 people was successfully excavated, and Sirian used some wood to temporarily strengthen the tunnel, so that the tunnel could be maintained for a long time.
Sensing that the time was almost up, Sirian asked the summoner to summon fire-type summons and concentrate on attacking the opponent's warhorse.
Yelon was asleep, and suddenly smelled a hint of barbecue, Yelon woke up with a strong spirit, rubbed his eyes and got up to check, and what came into view was the red sky...
Why is there no conscription at all?
Yelon hurriedly summoned the soldiers, and found that most of them were still asleep, and the warning signal had not been sent for a long time!
Yelon stomped his feet angrily and shouted, "Bastards! a bunch of slackers! Get up for me! Enemy attack!"
The warning signal was heard throughout the barracks, and no one knew what was going on? There was no sign of an enemy invasion? Except for a few tents that were set on fire and dozens of soldiers were burned to death, there were not even the hoof prints of the horses? Where was the enemy? Is there anyone???
Yelon was also confused, what was going on? Could it be that the weather was dry in autumn and there was a fire? But why did dozens of soldiers be killed? So many people were burned to death without shouting? Everything was a little weird!
Yelon counted the losses, the cavalry horses suffered heavy losses, but the army did not receive any losses, since the cause of the fire could not be found for the time being, so he temporarily rested and recuperated, and Yelon ordered more guards in the camp and sent more heavy troops to the place where the food was stored.
Inside the tunnels, more than 100 summoners began to whisper.
"Lord Syrian, shall we continue the attack now?"
"Don't worry, it's not night yet, we're putting up with it, everyone eats some dried meat first, replenishes their strength, and waits until the evening before we start the raid!"
"Lord Syrian, what about Tuhe's retreat after our raid?"
"The enemy can't find us for the time being, let's launch a surprise attack tonight at night, and then when the other party is in chaos, put on the enemy's clothes and flee while the chaos is in chaos, no one will notice us!"
"Lord Syllian, then we will jointly summon the poisonous fire lizard this time, shall we?"
"Yes, this time we will concentrate our magic power, and we will summon them in a group of 10 people, and the time of the poisonous fire lizard can be maintained for a longer time! 10 poisonous fire lizards, I believe that the leading general of the Drifting Snow Country will definitely drop his jaw!"
At night, Yelon can no longer sleep, yesterday's sudden fire was very strange, today there are additional guards everywhere, there should be no yesterday's situation, even if someone deliberately set the fire, even if it is discovered, is it a spy in the army mixed with the enemy?
Suddenly, there was a strange sound in the camp, the roar of an animal came to mind in the camp, followed by a large field of fire and a red sky!
The younger generation of soldiers in the Drifting Snow Country had never seen a poisonous fire lizard, more than a dozen poisonous fire lizards broke through the blockade, sprayed flames all the way to the granary, and the green flames burned most of the grain stored in the granary, and after the poisonous fire lizard burned the granary, they began to run around, and the camp of the Drifting Snow Country army fell into a sea of fire.
Yelon was knowledgeable and recognized at a glance that this was the handiwork of the Capet family!
"Elite guards, quick, lead people to search the surroundings, kill those summoners, it's summoners, as long as you get rid of those summoners, this kind of summoned creature will be gone!"
"General Yelon, our camp is in chaos now, should we maintain order first!"
"Bastard, you don't want to live anymore, do you! You can do whatever I tell you to do? Don't talk too much!"
Three thousand elite guards mounted their horses and began to search the surrounding area with all their might, looking for the shadow of the summoner.
In the sea of fire, the poisonous fire lizard disappeared, and Yelon was even more anxious, the disappearance of the summoned creature meant that the summoner had begun to retreat, could his men find those damn guys?
Yelon couldn't hold back any longer, and personally led the army and began a frantic search, while also arranging for his men to gather the panicked soldiers.
In the darkness, Sirian ordered to cover up the tunnel so as not to be discovered by the other party, and then changed into the clothes of the enemy army, and 100 people took advantage of the chaos to escape.
There were all deserters around, and no one cared about these 100 soldiers, and the lieutenant general of the Drifting Snow Country led the guards to search several times, but they didn't see any shadow of the enemy except for the deserters scattered around!
Looking at the messy military camp, Yelon gritted his teeth and ordered the army to retreat, the most regrettable thing is the military rations and war horses, this time the loss is very serious, the war horses are gone, but the food is gone, you have to wait for the rear to be planted, although this battle defeated the Crescent Country army head-on, but next year's battle, he has lost the first hand, after Yelon gathered the army, began to lead the army back.
After the group successfully retreated, several people came to a forest and began to discuss the future plan.
"Lord Syrion, should we go back now, this raid is so enjoyable that the enemy doesn't even know where we are!"
"Don't be complacent, we have only temporarily destroyed part of the enemy's food and grass, and the enemy's main force is still there, but I still have a bold idea and some adventures, would you like to go with me?"
"Lord Xilian, we are willing, we are all excellent warriors trained by His Majesty, and we will not escape from the battle!"
"Yes, we are all the pride of the Capetian family, and for the sake of the family's reputation, we are willing to fight with Lord Syrion!"
"Okay! Then we don't need to take off the enemy's clothes for the time being, let's pretend to be defeated, return to the Twin Cities in advance, and divide into two parts, one part will attack the granary of the Twin Cities, and the other will attack the armory of the Twin Cities!
"Sirean-sama, your plan is so good! I'd like to go with you!"
"Okay! Great, everyone may know that I am also a member of the Capet family, today, let's teach the Drifting Snow Country a good lesson! Let the Drifting Snow Country understand the power of the Capet family! For the Capet family! For the glory!"
"For the Capets!
Everyone solemnly shouted slogans! Cialian's eyes were a little moist, many years ago, they were also on a mission to die nine deaths, but the Isis family let the people of the Capet family die, but now, the Capet family is fighting for glory! After this stop, the name of the Capet family will be known to the people on the mainland again! How many years have the Capet family finally stood up again!
Twin Cities, the soldiers defending the city learned that the army was attacking and was returning, the face of the deputy general defending the city was very worried, the Drifting Snow Country in the Twin Cities can rarely take advantage of the Crescent Country, most of the situation is pressed and beaten, although General Yelon has achieved a certain record this time, but he was ambushed, losing most of the horses and stored food, which is a dangerous signal.
The adjutant general has added a large number of patrol soldiers in the city, and he has interrogated everyone in the city very carefully, and the number of scouts in the city has increased several times to check the movements in the city in real time.
Outside the city, Sirian and his party noticed the changes in the Twin Cities, there were several times more patrol soldiers in the city, and there were also many soldiers patrolling the city...
"Lord Syllian, the other side seems to have added a lot of patrols, shall we go in again?"
"Don't worry, let's leave the war horses here, and then walk over on foot, prepare the gold coins, I don't want the other party's soldiers not to be greedy for money!"
Everyone came to bring the Twin Cities, and Sirian took the lead in saluting the soldiers guarding the city gate, clasped his fists and said: "This brother, you see,,, we are all defeated troops, and after being attacked by the army of the Crescent Country, we can't find the big army, so we simply came back early! ”
With that, Cyrian stuffed the pockets of the soldiers defending the city with a lot of gold coins.
The soldiers defending the city surrounded one after another, and the people around Silian also began to bribe the soldiers defending the city, and after a while, the two sides reached a consensus, everyone would not get along with money, and besides, the deserters were all dealt with by the generals above, and no one below would be nosy, since there was money to take, then it was not good for everyone to tear their faces.
Syrian and his party passed through the city gates, found a hidden corner in the city, and waited until evening, when the group split into two parts and began to attack their respective targets.
In the middle of the night, the deputy general guarding the city vaguely heard the sound of roaring and shouting, opened his eyes in a haze, and saw the flames rushing to the sky... There is ... Granary... Oops! Touched into the city by enemy troops!
"Come, assemble the army! Quick! Ring the alarm, and the whole army will be dispatched to surround the granary! Yes, send out heavy troops to firmly guard the four city gates! Not a single fly can be released!"
Suddenly, in the other direction of the Twin Cities, another flame rose into the sky... There is ... Armory!
After the two summoners successfully raided, in the previous positional round, Sirian counted the number of people and made sure that everyone had returned safely, and then began to retreat to a certain wall.
Dressed in the clothes of a Snowfeller soldier, Sirian and his party came to the city wall unimpeded.
"What are you doing? This is the wall, and we're defending it! Don't come here!"
"A few big brothers, we are old supporters! As mentioned above, we must strengthen the defense on the city wall today!"
"No, the guards on the city wall are special troops, and they won't let you come, who are you?"
Seeing that he could no longer deceive, Celian took the lead in throwing out a spell to deal with the soldier.
The soldiers on the city wall saw that Syrian and the others were moving, and rang the warning bell, and soldiers were constantly attracted here...
Cyrian roared, "Everyone unleash the strongest summons, take down the walls, and then quickly climb down with ropes and evacuate the Twin Cities." ”
On the city wall, rows of crossbow arrows were fired, and Cilian and his group all released their magic shields to block the crossbow arrows that came at them.
The magical creatures unleashed all kinds of magic and blasted through the defenses above the city walls, and after the 20 summoners commanded the summons to break, the group found the rope and began to climb out of the city.
The adjutant general who defended the city heard the warning at the city wall and knew that the culprit must be evacuating from the city wall, so he arranged for someone to extinguish the fire, and the deputy general led all the troops to begin to assemble at the city wall.
There are still the last 5 summoners in the city, and there are more and more soldiers around, and the magic power of the 5 summoners has dried up, and the 5 people shouted: "For the glory of the Capetian family!
After that, a few people guided the magic power to explode, and 5 balls of blood flowers exploded in the city!
Under the city, Celian sighed and said to himself, "Capet will remember you!
The crowd burst out of the darkness and disappeared without a trace.
When the lieutenant general of the city defense ascended to the top of the city, he saw that there was only a pile of broken blood on the top of the city, and the enemy's raiding troops had all retreated...
"Report to the general, the fire in the granary has been extinguished, and seventy percent of the grain and grass have been lost!"
"Report to the general, the fire in the armory cannot be extinguished for the time being, the fire is too big and has spread to other places!"
"Let's go! The whole army is looking for a water source to put out the fire! We must control the fire!"
A few days later, Yerron returned to the Twin Cities, and when he saw the situation in the city, he was furious! Damn! The summoners of the Capet family?
Yelon was angry, the consequences of the loss of the Twin Cities were serious, and there was a serious shortage of the army's attack, so Yelon could only choose to disband part of the troops and go home, and wrote a letter to Terina, asking the country to send a large army to escort food and grass to support.
After receiving Yelon's letter, Terina was very angry, are Yelon's troops all pigs' heads? There are so many stocks of grain in the Twin Cities, and there are also a lot of stocks of grain that she has allocated to Yelon's army before, but it took Yelon less than a year to build them all? It's too much! It's asking for food and horses! I don't know if the northern kingdom is about to fight a decisive battle with the Crescent Country? So much food has been given to you, what will happen to the other troops?
"Someone, let Natasha come to see me, and then arrange for someone to mobilize some food and grass!"
Natasha was a shadow guard before, and was favored by Terrina because of her flexible mind and outstanding ability, and this time when Yelon lost the battle, Terina was ready to send Natasha to temporarily replace Yelon in the Twin Cities.
After Natasha entered Jelina's dormitory, she knelt down on one knee and saluted, "Lord Governing the Country, may I ask you to summon me here, what is the matter?"
Terina said: "The battle in the Twin Cities is tight, Yelon is not quite my heart, I am ready for you to replace him, you prepare, bring some elite troops, and set off immediately!"
Natasha said, "Okay, Lord Governing the Country, I'll go right away!"
Twin Cities, Yelon didn't know that his power was about to be taken back, and he still commanded his subordinates arrogantly, and all the generals were holding their breath!
Didn't you Yelon go to the sky? You boast of unparalleled wisdom, but now you don't even have anything to eat! In the past, everyone admired you and were willing to listen to you when you won the battle, but now that you kid has lost, you are still arrogant and shouting and drinking! Who listens! You still want to kill and cut at every turn?
There are more and more voices against Yelon, after Yelon slashed a general, there was a mutiny in the Twin Cities, many generals led the army to rebel, Yelon was outnumbered, led a guard to break out of the siege, and fled in the direction of the Red Stone Fortress...
