Torristin's territory was smaller than that of Goria, and it only took a day to reach the southern region from the central capital of the country. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 The arrival of Alice's 30,000 troops and Torristin's 25,000 troops made the local nobles who remained in the city and territory much more reassured.

The local nobles held a banquet to welcome Alice and Haotian and others, and reported to them the situation of the Golia advance army by the way.

"yes, that's right." Haotian nodded.

Alice was noncommittal.

In addition to [Thoth] City, just yesterday afternoon, the Goria army in [Thoth] City divided into two ways and defeated [Tony] and [Tory] Cities. The Gorria army, which relied on three cities and sent soldiers to patrol the Gorria-Torlistine border, was no longer able to detect movement on the Gorria side.

"And what are the forces of each of the three cities?" Haotian asked a key question.

The nobleman who reported was stunned, "Huh? Cold sweat oozed from his forehead. Their little private soldiers are outside the city of [Thoth] to see if there is an army out of the city, how can they tell the number of troops.

Haotian glanced at him dissatisfiedly and let him leave.

After the banquet, Haotian and Alice met separately as commanders of the two armies and chose to stay in the lord's study.

"Princess Alice, now that the enemy army has occupied the three cities, we have cut off our source of information. We had to consider the worst-case scenario. "Haotian Dao.

"Oh? They should only have 20,000 people, and even if you add the 10,000 people on the side of Goria, there are only 30,000 people, and they can still play tricks? Alice said with some confidence.

"That being said, Goria has a large army after all. In addition to the 100,000 troops fighting on the border with your country, there are also Xu Duo's troops that can be mobilized, especially the 50,000-strong Earth Bear Legion. ”

"Hahaha-" Alice laughed when she heard this, "you think too much, the Earth Bear Legion is the strongest force in Goria, and my father's Fire Elf Legion is there to deal with it. King Goria would not use this power against Torlistine. ”

"Really? Even if you don't consider the 50,000 Earth Bears, the main legions of the other local armies still have room to spare. For example, the troops of the West Coastline were secretly transferred here. After all, it is impossible for Albion to attack the countries on the continent today. ”

Alice finally paid some attention. "Well, I can't be sure. Do you want to? ”

"Divide the army into three places. Don't be impatient, withdraw when you encounter a strong enemy to preserve your strength. ”

Alice frowned and thought for a long time before nodding slowly: "Okay, what Commander Haotian said makes sense, I will cooperate with you." ”

"In that case, thank you, Your Highness Alice." After Haotian persuaded Alice, he bowed and left the study.

Well? Alice's eyes inadvertently reflected the back of Haotian when he left.

Burly, tall, striding meteor, like. It seems to be with the back!

Alice's expression changed greatly, and she still had to look at Haotian carefully, Haotian was already far away.

Alice wasn't sure that Haotian was two meters tall, and the person who kidnapped her in the first place should not have been so tall. However, everything else is similar. Commander Haotian, he was still the captain of the escort team at the time, why did he kidnap me? It can't be him, right? Alice doubted Qi Haotian after all.

On the third day of the Goria-Kermania War, the Toristin-Kermanian coalition launched an attack on the three cities of Tony, Toth, and Tolly in three directions. The second round of the Goria-Toristine war began. After negotiation, Princess Alice divided 20,000 troops to attack Tony City, Alice took the remaining 10,000 and 10,000 of the original Torristeen Northern Army to attack Toth City, and Lady Karina led 15,000 troops of the Wariel Army to attack Tolly City.

Among them, at the request of Princess Alice, Haotian and Osman attacked [Thoth] with Alice.

The defenders of Goria, the three cities, detected enemy movements and moved under the earlier arrangements of the advance command. I don't fear the enemy because it's too big.

The 20,000 Alice army led by Adjutant Alice and the 15,000 Variel army led by Lady Karina were met with much weaker resistance than expected, and the number of soldiers defending the city was probably no more than 3,000. After paying about 2,000 casualties, the two armies broke through the city of Tony [Tony].

However, when they led their troops into two cities

"Boom-boom-boom--"

The sound of explosions continued to sound from the buildings near the city gates, and it turned out that Glens, the commander of the Goria Advance Army, had been mobilizing explosives from the country for several days. When he learned the news that the Toristine-Kermanian alliance was heading south, he suddenly attacked and captured the two cities of Tony and Tory, which had only 1,000 defenders, and planted explosives and left a few decoys.

When Lady Karina, the lieutenant of Alice's legion, took it lightly and entered the city after breaking through, the trap was set in. Explosives weighing 10,000 people were gathered in one place, and the soldiers who entered the city panicked and fled in all directions. Some of them died when they stepped on explosives, some were crushed to death by the collapse of the building caused by the explosion, and some fell to the ground and were trampled to death by their own people running around. The commanders of the two armies, under the protection of nearby soldiers, did not die, but after the explosion, it was a mess.

The gates of the two cities were blown up in a small way, and the walls collapsed, and they could no longer be used as defensive cities. What's more, more than half of the centaurs were damaged in the explosion. And Goria only paid 6,000 troops for the decoy, and used bombs and two cities to destroy the Yanlong Army and the Wariel Army with a total of nearly 20,000 people.

Faced with the collapse of the city, the two commanders had to abandon the city and return. He led the remaining 9,000 Alice troops and 6,500 Variel troops back to the southern noble territory of Torristeen to rest.

On the other hand, Alice, Haotian, and Osman's troops attacking the city of [Thoth] were stubbornly defended. Glens, the commander of the Goria Advance Army, was in the city of Thoth, and there were 13,000 troops in the city. Under the command of Glens, with the defensive advantage of [Thoth] City, he actually withstood the repeated attacks of the 20,000 combined army.

After a long attack, Alice looked at the fire, and she looked at Osman.

"Head Ottoman, it's time to use your powers. Breach the gates with Tornado. "Alice is also a [Quartet-level], but she is newly promoted and has not used the accumulation of fourth-level magic.

Osman stroked his beard and looked at Haotian inquiringly.

Haotian thought for a moment and asked rhetorically, "Ottoman Academy Master, I remember that you are a [Quartet Level] of the Wind and Earth Sect, can you use [Earth Splitting Landslide]?" ”

Osman nodded self-assuredly.

Alice was taken aback. It's no wonder that the strength of the Ottoman Academy Master is still above Uncle Nylent who has not received the blessing of the [Fire Elves], and he is actually a dual-line [Quartet Level].

Haotian looked at the [Thoth] city on the battlefield that had not been attacked for a long time, the coalition army had already lost more than 5,000 casualties, and the defending side was similar. If you consume more troops, you may not be able to defend.

"Head Ottoman, please. Destroy that city with the Ground Splitting Landslide. ”

"Princess Alice, tell all the soldiers to stop the siege and retreat."

"I don't need you to say it. Deliver my order, and the whole army retreats. ”

Haotian also ordered the soldiers on Torlistine's side to withdraw.

Osman walked out of the tent, a large open space was vacated in the barracks, and Osman walked to the middle and began to chant.

"G. Us, Us, Us, Move." 【*Landslide and ground crack】

The spell was only six parts, but it took much longer to chant than one, and halfway through the spell, the land around Osman began to tremble. The soldiers left behind in the barracks all felt the shock, and as the incantation woke up, the shock grew louder and louder, and it had already caused the ordinary soldiers to fall to the ground.

The tremor was transmitted, so that the retreating soldiers could also feel it, and then it spread to the city of [Thoth], causing the whole city to slowly shake as well.

Glens, the advance army of Goria, was puzzled by the sudden retreat of the enemy army, felt the tremors, frowned and asked, "Earthquake?" His own soldiers did not know how to answer him.

In about five minutes, the soldiers of the coalition army withdrew to a kilometer away from the city of [Thoth].

Uthman also completed the chanting that was deliberately slowed down. As his wand pointed forward, the violent vibrations centered around him moved forward, and the dust on the ground fluttered like drums in its path.

The coalition soldiers scattered in a hurry, and the tremors grew stronger and stronger, approaching the city of [Thoth]. The positions of Haotian and others, who were already thousands of meters apart, also had a clear sense of vibration.

Seeing the flying rings of smoke and dust moving from the top of the city, Glens was puzzled, shocked, and shocked. "[Landslide and Ground Crack]!! Quick, find cover, don't get close to the building, run to the clearing. ”

Glens shouted, and he left the city wall with his own guard, and ran out of the city.

"Boom-boom-boom-boom-"

A tremor swept under the city walls, moving to the center of the city of [Thoth] and stopping underground, and then the tremors continued to escalate. The earth fell together, the ground in the center cracked layer by layer, the shaking waves of earth tore over the buildings, and the buildings that were very durable in the face of swords, guns, bows and arrows were powerless to rise and fall in the face of the earthquake, and the buildings continued to collapse and fall, burying and covering the Goria army in the city.

This is a one-man performance by Osman.

The tremors lasted for about ten minutes, and the original location of [Thoth] City was only a ruin, and the smoke and dust had not yet dissipated. From time to time, the surviving Goria soldiers rose from the ground.

"Send a thousand men and take those Goria soldiers prisoner. I have something to ask them. Haotian ordered.

Torristeen sent soldiers to tie up the Goria soldiers who had no intention of fighting for the rest of their lives after the earthquake.

Alice looked at Osman, who was extremely weak after casting the spell, and there was killing intent in her eyes. Such a powerful mage, since it is not from his own country, it is better to take this opportunity to kill him.

Haotian paced to block Alice's vision, pressed his hand on the Dever, and looked at Alice with a smile.

Commander Haotian, this guy is very strong, and I would have suffered a loss without Jin Hong's helpers. Not this time.

Alice smiled: "The head of the Ottoman Academy is really magical, after Gelfin in Albion, the current number one magician in the continent should be the head of the Ottoman Academy." ”

"Probably, Her Royal Highness the Princess is [Quartet Level] at such a young age, and she will definitely be able to surpass the Ottoman Academy Master in the future." Haotian said lightly.

"yes, I hope you're right." Alice walked away to gather her troops and count the casualties.

Osman was helped over with a pale face.

"Captain Ottoman, are you alright?" Haotian asked.

Osman smiled bitterly: "I didn't spare my hand, this time the magic power is exhausted, and I can't recover in three or two days." ”

"It's fine. With that [Earth Splitting Landslide], you are the first hero to fight southward this time. ”

"Hey, it's not over yet. I'll go back and rest first. ”

"Hmm. Hello Protect the Head of the Academy, double the number of soldiers you protect, and transfer 6 members of the Magic Knight Team to protect you. Go ahead. ”

"Yes." The soldier nodded in reply and helped Osman down to rest.

Haotian also walked away, gathered the army, counted the casualties, and interrogated the prisoners.
