Chapter 823: Restrictions

One of the greatest advantages of the undead as a serious illness of war is that they are tireless.

This advantage makes them incomparably more threatening in the battle, and even if Gaunt City erects a huge chain of chains, it will not be enough to dispel the dark clouds of war brought by the army of the undead.

This is also the reason why Merlin's thousand-year-old fortress chain network plan was overthrown, and the demons were able to drive the undead army down and destroy one strong-defense fortress after another along the way - no matter how tough and tenacious the soldier is, after all, it is flesh and blood.

What's more, the demons have not been carried away by the victory all along, their tactics are the same as before, to concentrate the undead army, clench it into a fist, and concentrate on attacking several important points in Gaunt City, as long as any point of Gaunt City is broken through by the undead army, Gaunt City will no longer be able to stop the undead army from moving south!

However, the invincible victory of the demon undead army also came to an abrupt end in front of Gaunt City, which was like a stubborn reef standing in the sea, crushing the surging waves again and again.

The first offensive of the army of the undead lasted only half a day, and when the miserable whiteness representing the Grim Reaper retreated from under the city walls, there were deafening cheers from the walls of Gaunt City, and the morale of the soldiers who had not heard the good news for nearly a year was greatly boosted, and they even forgot their exhaustion, forgetting the white terror that threatened their lives a second ago!

The gendarmerie shouted and ran all the way, maintaining order, ordering the transfer of soldiers and transporting the casualties, high in the city, a group of generals looked down, and the white-haired veteran looked with a happy face:

"What a strong and excellent lad, none of them took a step back, what a good job!"

"That's because. They know that behind them is their family and their hometown. If they take a step back, it will be their parents, wives and children who will face these horrible undead. Another gray-haired general said behind the white-haired veteran.

"Admiral West, you said the wrong thing, starting today. What the undead represent will no longer be horror. ”

"Haha, I don't know what the situation is on Master Mourinho's side, the army of the undead is retreating, it seems that the plan is smooth." Admiral West, who was corrected, did not mind, and in the face of the rare good news, the morale of Gaunt City was high from top to bottom.

"How's the other levels going?"

"There's already a message, about the same as on our side. Those levels have ** divisions in charge, and the time for the first wave of the undead to be defeated is about the same as ours! Another general brought exciting news.

"Don't get too happy, try to be prepared for unplanned surprises." The white-haired veteran said.

"Yes, General!"

"It's a pity that that kind of undead control technique came too late, if it had been a month earlier, the last fortress chain might not have been lost. Then we have more room to set up tactics, and we don't need to be so conservative to defend Gunt City. Another general said.

"yes......"

Speaking of this, many generals sighed. Purely consuming energy reserves like this, using the lives of soldiers to fill the victory, even if the loss is much smaller than before, it is still a loss.

What's more, there is not a single person up and down the city of Gaunt who does not want to counterattack. Fight these hateful demons back so that they can never threaten the eternal line of defense of Gaunt City.

The Northern Front Army, which defeated the first wave of the undead army's offensive, did not leave Gaunt City and went out to pursue and kill, this is a lesson learned since the war in the past year, and the mutual loss of flesh and blood and the undead, even if it is one to ten, is still not worth it for the Terran side:

Ice and snow are the most things on the ice field, and the demon clan's necromancy can replenish the source of troops at any time, but the death and injury of soldiers cannot be replenished immediately.

But just because the Terran soldiers are not pursuing does not mean that the retreating army of the undead has no pursuers.

If the Terran soldiers take a closer look, they will notice that among the evacuated undead army, the closer to Gaunt City, the more chaotic the undead army becomes, and many of the undead who were originally under the threat of high-level undead suddenly began to turn against their kind;

And as a key hub, the high-level undead or the location of the undead leader hiding in the group of undead were exposed, and some of the undead leaders were surrounded and attacked, and the undead under their control were out of control, plus their death caused the necromancer to be counterattacked, so that the undead army was quickly defeated.

"After withstanding this wave of attacks, the situation will only get better and better - the longer the time, the more mages of our human race will master the undead control technique, in terms of quantity and quality, will our mages lose to the demons? Calm down, the day of our counterattack is not far away, and we vow to avenge the Tongze who died in the hands of the demons! ”

A middle-aged general standing behind the white-haired veteran, thinking of the promising future, couldn't help but roar angrily, and was reciprocated, but the white-haired veteran's complexion was pale, and a slight worry flashed in his cloudy eyes.

How tragic the rout is, how deep is the desire for a counteroffensive, such a wave has become the mainstream in the command, as if the undead control technique is omnipotent, which is worrying,

"That's right, we want to speed up the promotion of this undead control technique, and now what we lack the most is also a mage, and I hope that we can supplement it as much as possible."

As soon as the other general's voice fell, he saw a herald running under the battlements: "Report, a secret order has come from the rear military headquarters." ”

"Bring it." The white-haired veteran at the head said.

The guards under the battlements hurriedly took the letter box, held it in both hands, and trotted up the sloping stairs.

The white-haired veteran took the envelope and opened it, took out the wax seal letter inside, and printed a seal ring on the index finger of his right hand on the wax seal of the envelope, the envelope flashed with a spiritual light, and the veteran tore open the envelope, took out the letter inside, and after reading it, his face was calm and said:

"The military department rejected the application to promote the undead control technique on a large scale, and asked us in the front line of Gaunt City to immediately control the mages who learned this spell, and not allow this spell to be further promoted."

"What!"

This news was like a stone falling into the water, which made the generals present in disbelief:

"Are the brains of those bigwigs in the military department stuffed with horse manure!"

"If you don't promote spells, will you see the demon undead army break through Gaunt City and wreak havoc in the south. Are they satisfied? ”

"Those guys in the military department who are full of brains, we are desperate to the front line. It's human life to fill in, do they really think that to repel the undead is only to move their mouths?

The white-haired veteran was very indifferent, and stuffed the secret letter with the order back into the envelope and threw it into the letter box:

"This order, back in the days when I consulted with Master Mourinho and them. It was already expected that it was precisely because of the great threat of the undead that the military department would not allow more people to master this kind of undead control technique - you know, the Europa Empire had only been destroyed for less than seven hundred years. ”

In the secret document, the tone of the military department's instructions was so harsh that it was almost a naked rebuke, and there was no room for maneuver. The white-haired veteran had long expected this, so he promoted this undead control technique on the front line in advance on the grounds of being in a hurry.

Otherwise, when the order of the military department comes down, let alone whether it can counterattack, it is a question whether it can be defended or not, if it is not for the white-haired veteran who has been in charge of the headquarters of Gunt City for a long time, and he can't change the commander lightly, maybe he will be directly recalled to retire by a paper order.

In fact. The worries of the military department are by no means vexatious, and the two factions of the army and the mages accompanying the army on the northern front have not been in a harmonious relationship within the army. The disagreements and struggles between the mages and the officers were already raging in the previous war.

Of course, the generals at the top of the northern line are aware of the sequelae of the promotion of the undead control technique, but compared to the problems ahead, the situation in front of them is more serious, even if they know the extremely poisonous poisonous wine. As long as they can attack the demons back, they must drink it without hesitation!

"Order to stop the promotion of the undead control technique, strengthen the monitoring of the mages who have already learned, and don't let them continue to spread the word." The white-haired veteran said.

"Generalissimo!"

"This is a military order!" The white-haired veteran muttered.

Even without an order from the military department, he would not allow the undead to run rampant, and it was almost enough to maintain the current scope.

As long as they can withstand the undead army of the demon race, the lost fortresses and territories, they can regain them piece by piece, thousands of years ago they were able to build fortresses on the ice field, and now they can naturally do it, although it will inevitably consume the lives of soldiers, but it is much better than the sequelae that may be brought about by the flood of undead control techniques.

The opposition within the high command was also expected by him, these generals were blinded by the prospect of a counteroffensive, but sooner or later they would come to their senses, which is why he wanted to make public the orders of the military headquarters here and pour cold water on them.

This is also what he and Mourinho and other ** masters have negotiated in advance, as long as the mage knows best the danger of the flood of magic, and limits the proliferation of the undead control technique, and even those ** masters took the initiative to propose, compared to the calmness of these ** masters, the white-haired veteran was a little disappointed with the reaction of his generals.

However, they were not to blame, for within a year, not a single general had not received an obituary from his kinsmen and nephews, and the blood of the Merlin boy had been spilled on every inch of the icefield.

One fortress after another was breached, one tragic battle after another, Merlin's military spirit did not collapse because of this, then it will only be more pure, and the counterattack on the demon clan has long been no longer a position of honor for the people of Gaunt City, but faith, a mission, a responsibility, and a belief in revenge.

If you give your life and soul, you can completely wipe out the demon race and the army of the undead, and the whole city of Gaunt will not hesitate!

"Report, the first, second, and third regiments of the subordinate mages of Gunt City...... The 17th regiment has a total of 1,771 mages and 12,812 apprentices...... At present, there are a total of 386 mages and 278 apprentices who have come into contact with the undead control technique, all of whom have signed confidentiality contracts under the supervision to restrict the disclosure of the undead control techniques to the outside world, the specific list is as follows...... Report complete! ”

The white-haired general was slightly surprised, and then realized:

"It seems that the masters have prepared in advance, very good, very good...... As long as our Northern Front Corps work together and win, it will not be too far away! ”

(To be continued)

ps:

It is impossible for the undead control technique to really be completely flooded, otherwise this plane will not be far from extinction, and the one that Lin An is holding in his hand is the key, and it is also a double-sided blade, which will cut himself if he is not careful.

But there is naturally more than one smart person with a long-term vision, but for the current northern front, the undead control technique has to be used, so I have to try my best to maintain a degree, so as not to really drink to quench my thirst and die of poisoning.

Make up at 10 o'clock. RL
