As soon as he walked out of the door, he saw his father and the captains who were being led by the guards to the conference room in the corridor, and his cheeks turned red again when the spring tide had just receded, and he said hello to his father and the captains and went upstairs quickly. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"Yes! Oh, yes! Anna and Her Highness are a match made in heaven. Everyone also laughed and said, "Be sure to have a treat." ”

"It's all about the kids." Anderson said embarrassedly: "Let's go in quickly, don't let His Highness wait." ”

"Waiting? Your Highness hasn't come out yet. ”

"Ah!!h

When Mullen arrived in the conference room, the captains of each building had already sat down on their stools, and when they saw Mullen coming in, they all stood up and bent down and saluted, "See His Royal Highness the Grand Duke." ”

"Sit down." Mullen sat down on the chairman, waved his hand, and said, "I gathered everyone here today to ask how the training of your soldiers is. ”

"Your Highness, don't worry, I can't guarantee the other buildings, my building is definitely a soldier." Clement, the fifth captain of the Fifth Building, who had always liked to express himself and had a lot of nerves, said immediately.

"Your Highness, is something wrong?" Old Cheng asked Selwin, the second captain of the old and solemn building.

"I have received news that the remnants of Gurlitt are under the protection of Ulysses Bill, the lord of Bill and Yacheng, and are recruiting troops in Bir and Yacheng, and may counterattack Yulan City in the near future." Mullen sat in his chair and spoke slowly, as if he was saying something inconsequential.

"Ahh With the exception of Selwyn, the other captains all looked surprised.

"Selwyn, do you know about Gurlit's recruitment in Bill & Ya?" Seeing the only calm Selwin, Maren asked curiously.

"Back to Your Highness," Selwyn replied hurriedly, "I know Gurlitt better, this man, although brutal and luxurious, is very resilient, and will not easily accept his defeat. I don't know that His Highness has already sent spies, thinking that His Highness will not be able to remember about Gurlitt for a while, so some time ago, I privately sent someone to inquire about him, so I told His Highness about his recent situation. Just now my spies came back and brought back the latest situation of Gullit, and before I could report it to His Highness, His Highness sent someone to summon me. ”

"It's still General Selwyn who thinks thoughtfully," Mullen exclaimed after listening to Selwin's answer, "I don't know the specifics of Gurit yet, but let's listen to the information from your spies." ”

"Okay," said Selwin, taking out a stack of papers from his bosom, opening it, "On the third day after Gullit's escape to the city of Bill and Asia, he persuaded the lord of the city of Bill and Asia that Ulysses Bill and Asia agreed to temporarily lend the town of Puster, which belonged to the city of Bill and Asia, to Gullit, and let Gullitt recruit troops there. ”

"Gurlitt has gathered a total of more than 20,000 people so far with the property he took from Youlan City, most of these people are mercenaries and adventurers who travel to and from the entire Lott Plain, although the quality of individual soldiers is very good, but they are all stragglers, extremely lacking in discipline and organization, and are in a disadvantageous position in the battle of the large army."

"In addition, when Gullit escaped from Youlan City, he took away the three thousand guards around him, these troops are all soldiers with high martial arts, because the guards are all veterans, although it can't be said that one is ten, but it is okay to take one as three and four as one, so this army is the most threatening."

"According to the agreement reached between Gullitt and Bill, Billia agreed to send five thousand troops to assist Gullitt in the battle."

"It seems that the situation is very serious," after listening to Selwin's answer, Mullen sighed: "I have only taken over Youlan City for more than a month, and the internal situation is still very unstable, so this war cannot happen in the territory of Youlan City, we must strike first and control the war in the territory of Bill and Yacheng." ”

"And when are we going to send troops?" Anderson asked.

"Three days later!" Mullen said loudly: "General Selwyn, I have appointed you as the commander-in-chief of the Left Route Army, commanding the second and third buildings to set out from the town of Nashville and attack the town of Magnolia, the southern important town of Bir and Ya. ”

"The last general commands!" Selwin stood up and replied.

"General Badas, I appoint you as the commander-in-chief of the Right Route Army, commanding the fourth and fifth buildings from the town of Pyrsi to attack the town of Bill and the town of Fordes, an important town in the north of the city." Mullen continued.

"The last general commands!" Bardas replied, standing up.

"Anderson led the first building to stay in Youlan City, and I personally led the Guards and the Sixth Building, as well as the Warcraft army, as the middle route army, to attack Bill and the central town of Puster from Atlanta Town." Mullen continued, "Let's all go back and get ready." ”

"Yes!" The crowd stood up and saluted Mullen, and then they all walked out one by one.

The next day, Mullen handed over the list given by Apredo to Browns, and at the same time sent someone to invite Anderson to provide personnel support for Browns' affairs during the period when Mullen was away from Orchid City.

Early in the morning of the third day, Mullen led the guards to the school field outside the city, except for Anderson's first building to enter the city to take over the guarding of the guards, the remaining five officers and soldiers were neatly divided into five phalanxes and stood under the point general.

After the three drums, Mullen began to point the generals, and the officers and soldiers of the five buildings had already arrived, and Mullen did not talk nonsense, and directly issued orders according to the plan three days ago, and the captains of each building led the soldiers out of the school field and went to the front line in turn.

The soldiers and horses did not move the grain and grass first, and the political director who was in charge of the logistics of this expedition when Mullen was in charge of the general, Apredo, had already prepared the people and baggage he needed, and every team that was going to go to the battlefield was equipped with enough food and grass for a month and the people who escorted the grain and grass, and he had already begun to prepare for the follow-up supplies Apredo.

In the Mullan Continent, only metal weapons can withstand fighting spirit and enchantment, so the weapons of the army in the Mullan Continent are relatively simple, the heavy infantry uses one-handed giant swords and iron shields, the light infantry uses two-handed giant swords, the heavy cavalry uses three-meter-long iron cavalry spears, and the light infantry uses bows and arrows and one-handed swords.

The barren Lott Plain is extremely short of war horses, and the monsters only accept orders from their masters, so there are a large number of monsters in the Mullen sky and can only form infantry.

However, with the use of the armor seized from the castle, Mullen formed a bend of heavy infantry for each of the buildings to attack the fortifications, while the other four bends could only wear leather armor with weak defenses.

In two days, Mullen led his men to Atlanta, rested for the night under the hospitality of Atlanta Mayor Gallup Atlanta, and the next day marched to Bill and the town of Puster in Atlanta.

After another two days, Mullen had arrived at the city of Pust, but Gurlit, who had already received the news, had ordered all the gates of Pust to be closed.

Gullit, who already had 20,000 mercenaries, stood on the gate of Pust Town, if he looked at the army of less than 10,000 people under the city and the violet banner representing the Grand Duke of Roland in the army, and did not understand who attacked him, the tens of thousands of demonic beasts next to the army had already clearly told Gurlitt that the enemy under the fence he had killed was coming.

Taking advantage of the fact that Mullen had come from afar and had not yet gained a firm foothold, Gullitt led his most elite 3,000 guards to mount his war horses and rushed to Mullen, who was encamped.

Seeing the army coming in the city, the soldiers who were camping immediately panicked, and while sending Zakalaias to pacify the army, Mullen ordered the Warcraft army to leave the camp and assemble, and after assembling, they rushed back to the Gullit army that came out of the city.

Although Gullit's guards are all elite, and each soldier is a swordsman above the third level, the level of the Warcraft that is better than Mullen is okay and far more numerous than Gullit's cavalry, and the two armies have delayed the offensive of Gurlit's cavalry as soon as they first met.

Although there was no shortage of sixth-level swordsmen in the Gullit army, and each commander was a seventh-level swordsman, he also became scrambling in the face of hundreds of demon wolves and hundreds of Kodo beasts at the same time.

The first encounter of this war took place in such a hurry, and the combat effectiveness of Gullit's Guards was a bit higher than Mullen thought, and Mullen's Warcraft army was not as simple as Gullitt imagined.

Neither side wanted to lose the lead in the first encounter, thus turning such a small surprise attack into a contest of strength between the two sides.

In the Mulan Continent, the war horse is an outlier, although it is not a Warcraft, but it has the speed and strength that ordinary low-level Warcraft cannot have, so that an ordinary knight can resist twice as many Warcraft of the same level with a Warhorse.

Gurlit's 3,000 cavalry were enough to hold off Mullen's 6,000 Devil Pigs, but the 2,000 horned bee beasts in the sky were far more threatening than the enemy's attackers as archers in the air.

After all, he was a veteran of leading troops for many years, and Gurlitt decisively gave the order to retreat when the attack did not go well, and Mullen's Warcraft army chased it until the city gate before being shot back with bows and arrows by the army on the city gate.

In just over an hour of confrontation between the two sides, Gurlitt left behind more than 200 corpses, while Mullen's army of monsters suffered casualties of more than 300 demon pigs, about 40 horned bee beasts, 50 demon wolves, and 3 Kodo beasts.

Malen dared to attack the town of more than 20,000 defenders with less than 20,000 troops and Warcraft had his own advantage, and the descendants of these Warcraft were also brought to the battlefield by Malen, although they could not be used as soldiers to see this siege battle, nor could they be used as soldiers' mounts, but they were still fully qualified as follow-up supplementary soldiers.

In addition to the Kodomon, which did not reach adulthood due to time reasons, the casualties of the Demon Pig and Horned Bee Beast, as well as the Demon Wolf, were all replenished in time.

In line with the idea of waste utilization, Mullen ordered the soldiers who had finished the camp to carry the dead monster to the barracks, and after digging out the demon core, they disemboweled, disemboweled, and boiled it.

Since it was almost dark, Mullen did not arrange for the siege of the city, and the soldiers were ordered to stay in the camp and rest after dinner, preparing for tomorrow's war.

In terms of camping, Mullen put the soldiers in the inside of the camp, with the demon pig and the Kodo beast on the periphery, and the demon wolf on the outermost periphery, the demon wolf's natural organs are sensitive and can detect the enemy in advance and rob the camp at night, and it is the best sentinel.

At dawn the next day, Mullen sent people to cut down trees to make ladders, well railings and catapults for siege of the city, subject to the limitations of materials and tools, the ladders and well railings are still made in accordance with the old traditions of the Mullan continent, but in the process of making catapults, Mullen, who was a mechanical professional, made great changes to the original process, and changed the original range of 500 meters of catapults to 800 meters, even if the enemy used catapults on the city wall to hit Mullen's catapult position.

Gullitt watched Mullen make siege equipment and did not send troops to fight, but only sent some small teams of soldiers to harass the people who cut down trees, but it did not have much effect, and at the same time, Gullitt sent people to ask for help from Ulysses Bill and Ya.

Due to the limitations of communication, Gurlitt still did not know that he was not the only one who was attacked, although the town owners of Fordeis Town and Magnolia Town also had good military capabilities, compared to the soldier-filled Puster Town, Ulysses was even more worried about the stability of Fordeis Town and Magnolia Town, and would definitely give priority to sending troops to rescue these two towns.

Unlike Malen, who had a monopoly on the city of Orchid, only 40% of Bill and A's army was in the hands of Ulysses, and most of the army was in the hands of the towns' lords, who were like the princes who were divided from Bill and A's.

Ulysses currently has only 15,000 troops and 3,000 guards, and only when the battle is going on, he will issue orders to the town lords under his jurisdiction, asking them to lead the army to gather in the city of Bir and Ya, and then send the army to the designated place, but this process will take at least half a month.

That is to say, if Ulysses would have rescued the town of Fodes and Magnolia with his army first, Mullen would have half a month to concentrate on attacking the city of Puster.

In Mullen's hands, there were only 15,000 soldiers and civilians combined, so Mullen handed over all the tasks of defending the camp to the Warcraft army, using 5,000 men to go up the mountain to cut wood, 5,000 people to go up the mountain to carry large stones, and then let 5,000 people assist the craftsmen to make ladders, well fences and catapults day and night.

It took 10 days for the craftsmen to make 500 catapults, 200 ladders, and 50 well railings.

During these ten days, the city was also in full swing, and Gurlitt went door to door to recruit people and collect equipment to defend the city, while searching for light and dark magicians all over the city.

In the war of the Lott Plains, the role of the magician is limited to treating the injuries of the soldiers, not that the role of the magician is small, but it is difficult for the barren Lott Plain to cultivate a magician above the intermediate level, and the low-level magician basically does not have any attack power, so only the light and dark magicians have a good role in the war, and the water magicians only have healing magic when they reach the level of high-level magicians.
