Chapter 198: God of War, Lord He Xiaofeng (Asking for a Wave of Monthly Passes)
"Orc shaman, Clive!" Ryan mentioned the name, his eyes red with a look of hatred. "He is the prophet of the orcs, the spokesman of the evil beast god, and the murderer of countless of my compatriots!"www.biquge.info ”
"So, these orcs are under his command?"
"That's right, the entire orc tribe, except for the royal family, has a little brain, only he has obtained the wisdom of the beast god, and can make it difficult for my army!" Ryan was emotional, "Your Excellency He Xiaofeng, you should also be the leader of your plane. As long as you can find a way to help me get rid of him, I promise you'll get paid well! ”
He Xiaofeng said: "I'll try my best." "He used to watch a lot of TV series and books about marching and fighting when he was a child, such as "Three Kingdoms", "Thirty-six Strategies", the history of the Tang, Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties, anti-Japanese dramas and so on.
In addition, because of the little things learned from playing strategic war games, I can barely talk about it on paper, and I don't know if it will work if I analyze it specifically.
In any case, just give it a try and you will know that some famous military strategists in the past were just "nerds" before they became famous.
He Xiaofeng said: "Only by knowing ourselves and knowing the other can we win all battles, we must first analyze and judge the situation between the two sides." ”
"I've read The Art of War, and I think the situation is very bad for me right now," Lane said. ”
"And then?"
"And then what?" Ryan seems to be at a loss for the second monk.
He Xiaofeng said speechlessly: "Your analysis is the same as saying it in vain. Let me analyze, according to what you just said, now your large army is in the rear, surrounded by the main force of the orcs, right? ”
"That's right."
"And you went deep alone with the vanguard, and suffered heavy losses. If you come back to help, you are likely to be wiped out. But the choice to go deeper, and the lack of supplies, the soldiers are exhausted, exhausted, and now in a state of dilemma. ”
He Xiaofeng remembered a key question, and he asked, "What about the number of orcs harassing you and their combat effectiveness?" ”
Ryan said angrily: "That's a group of useless cowards, they are all old, weak, sick and disabled, and ten people can't let out a fighting spirit, but they just hide from attacking us head-on, using the weather and terrain to attack us." ”
"In other words, they are not your opponents, but due to weather and geography, you can't wipe them out." He Xiaofeng continued to ask, "How far away is the tribe of the orc shaman Clive from here, and is it strong?" ”
Ryan said, "Clive is a great magician, and he is very strong, but my fighting spirit can contend with him head-on!" The elite soldiers of his tribe have gone to encircle and suppress my army, and there should be no strong force in the tribe now. ”
He Xiaofeng nodded, he vaguely had a plan in his heart. However, there are still several factors that need to be determined before they can be implemented, and there is no room for error in war.
"Ryan, now go see your men and see how they're doing."
Ryan's men had set up camp in the snow, the warriors had broken through the ice, and the magicians had used earth magic to build simple earthen huts, and they were warming themselves around the fireballs released by the magicians.
Before Ryan could enter the house, he heard grumbling and sighing from inside.
"The captain is also dead today, he is a great swordsman, if he is at his peak, he can destroy those damn orcs alone. But these days, his fighting spirit is seriously consumed, and he is injured, so he is harmed by those long-haired beasts! ”
"Well, I don't know how long we'll live. I've run out of food, and now I'm almost waiting to die. ”
"Oh my God, I'm a noble seventh-order magician, how could I die in such a ghost place? It's all because of Ryan's stupid knight, who had to kill the orc shaman, if he had returned to the imperial capital, we would have been His Majesty's guests now! ”
"Yes, I miss the spirits of the Northern Province and the passionate girls of the Southern Province! There's no going back. ”
"O Almighty God, please bless your devotees!"
Ryan walked around the hollow earthen wall in the doorway to keep the wind out, and walked into the house. His steps were steady and powerful, with the sound of his armor grinding, and when the soldiers saw him enter, they all fell silent, except for two believers who continued to pray to the gods.
He Xiaofeng said to him: "The morale is low, and the morale of the army is weak. If you go on like this, without enemy attacks, your soldiers will collapse on their own. ”
Ryan said in his heart: "I can't come up with any way to boost morale, and I don't know the bottom of my own heart in this situation." ”
He Xiaofeng said: "You are a general, and they put their hopes on you." You can't be discouraged no matter who is discouraged, and once you show any negativity, the soldiers are probably ready to fend for themselves and run away. Listen to me, you do ......"
Ryan looked around at these subordinates with cold eyes, and shouted: "Alas, sighing, fearful, cowardly, living up to Your Majesty's expectations, and tarnishing the glory of the gods, have you forgotten the oath you took before going on the expedition?" ”
"Fighting for the protection of your homeland, fighting for glory, what about your will to fight? Have the once majestic warriors and majestic magicians become minions and pigs waiting to die? ”
Most of the people he said were ashamed, and some warriors said with shame on their faces: "My blood and my sword are all made for glory, and if the orcs are here, I am willing to fight to the death!" ”
"But we can't find the orcs!" A magician stood up and looked directly at Ryan, "What's the use of all this?" If a warrior can't have enough to eat, what strength do they have to fight? The mages have also lost the magic supply of magic crystals, do you expect us to use our magic wands like clubs to fight those fierce orcs? ”
One of the warriors also stood up and said loudly, "Lord Lane, it's not that we're afraid of fighting. It's that we don't want to die meaninglessly, we die here, and we won't be known by anyone, but will be laughed at by the people - an incompetent army defeated by orcs! ”
As soon as the two men spoke, the rest of the soldiers became excited.
"I don't want to die in vain."
"I still want to go back and see my dear wife and children!"
"Run, we run, maybe there will be a glimmer of hope of survival!"
"God is merciful, and He will forgive us."
Hearing these words, Ryan's face changed greatly, and the magician directly accused him and said, "See? It's all because of you, the incompetent commander, who have put everyone in a humiliating situation, and you are not worthy to command us! ”
A soldier slammed to his feet and walked towards the outside of the earthen house. Ryan shouted, "Wycliffe, what are you going to do?" ”
Wycliffe was the only remaining great swordsman among the warriors, and he was so powerful that many warriors looked down on him.
Wycliffe said without looking back, "Since you can't lead us to victory, then I have no choice but to leave, I don't want to become orc poop." ”
Ryan's heart sank, and even Wycliffe had to flee, and the army was really at the time of life and death. Now I can only hope that the method He Xiaofeng told him will work.
"Stop!" Ryan let out a snort, and Wycliffe stopped.
Ryan looked everyone around and said loudly, "You want to go, you can!" But let me tell you, the orcs are not far from us, especially the canines and werewolves, who can smell the smell within a radius of several miles, and to leave alone is to die! ”
"Even if you return to the Duchy of Tulip, you can only choose to live incognito and live your life. Because you dare not say that you are deserters and a disgrace to the principality! ”
"What else can we do?" Someone shouted indignantly.
"Good question!" Ryan exclaimed, "I have just received instructions from the God of War, who has shown us a direction of victory!" ”
"No way, we don't have a chance." The magician shouted, "God of War, I've never heard of such a god, Ryan, don't try to deceive us!" ”
Ryan became serious, made a ritual of praying to the heavens, and said, "Wizard Barth, you can insult me, but I must not allow you to insult the god of war!" ”
"The god of war is an ancient god who has only recently awakened to find that his temple and guardian knights have disappeared. Sensing our predicament, he sent down an oracle to guide us to victory, just so that we could re-establish the temple of war! ”
He said that he had a head and a brain, and he swore an oath, and most of these people really believed it.
One of the warriors asked, "Lord Ryan, is the god of war the god who can dominate war?" ”
"That's right!" Ryan nodded at him with satisfaction, this kid is "so perceptive"! He continued: "Lord He Xiaofeng, the god of war, once led humans to fight against orcs, elves, undead clans, and even abyss demons in ancient times, won a hundred battles, and finally became an immortal god! ”
"But because he was so badly injured, he didn't wake up until now. Sensing my prayer, he sent down an oracle that if we did it, we would be victorious! ”
He kept boasting about "He Xiaofeng, the god of war", these soldiers were like people who fell into the water, there was a straw like grabbing, and they all began to believe that there was really a god of war to save them, and even Wycliffe, who wanted to leave, unconsciously returned to the team.
Ryan was overjoyed, and the method He Xiaofeng said was really useful. In this case, Ryan has lost his convincing, and only by creating a new spiritual figure can the soldiers regain their morale, and He Xiaofeng has become that spiritual leader.
Ryan struck while the iron was hot and said, "The god of war and the god of knights are also friends, so I was trusted by the god of war and became his first preacher, and now, I will convey the oracle of the god of war!" ”
Hear it, oracle! This thing is terrible, when the priests of the temple convey it, they have to hold a memorial service, and the king, the archmage, the holy knights and other big people must attend. Various ceremonies are held.
Although they were not yet believers in the god of war, out of respect for the gods, they all knelt down and listened attentively. (To be continued.) )
