Chapter 90: The Civil War (6)

The black dragon curled up in a ball, its wings and tail tightly constricted, but its eyes did not fall asleep, and its scarlet vertical eyes glittered in the darkness like the night.

Caesar knew very well that a high undead like Gnadro had abandoned the emotional perception of living creatures, so it was impossible to make it swear allegiance just by meeting them and saying a few words, and even if allegiance was only a lie, they had to be truly convinced.

A war is inevitable.

And that's what Caesar was happy to see.

For the current Black Dragon, the source of troops is no longer a problem, the focus is on how to tame these evil clans into a whole and merge them into a real legion.

The methods of human training of the army in the previous life will not work here, the biggest characteristic of the evil race is that they are unorganized and undisciplined, maybe they will be restrained in front of the black dragon lord, but as soon as Caesar leaves, these guys will immediately return to their original form.

Even killing them is useless, the chaos attribute was implanted in the bone marrow when they were created, and there is a common slang saying in the earthly world - "nature cannot be taken away", which is true for all races of Eladia.

So Caesar thought about it, but couldn't find a good solution to this problem, so he could only let these guys go through the baptism of war, and in the forging of blood and death, they turned the scattered broken iron into a complete weapon, and let them twist into a rope to form a real combat force.

This is also the reason why Caesar still chose to let the black knight Gnadro leave when he guessed what those undead might do, he couldn't take such a group of monsters to attack the green dragon Sylvia, the other party has the battle-experienced Green Capital Legion, and doing so is tantamount to going to die.

Attack the green capital in a desperate way, and if he fails, the enemy will not give him a third chance to turn the tables.

So before that, Caesar had to choose a less formidable opponent to use as a whetstone to sharpen his army, and let them try their hand at what a real large-scale war would be, and how to deal with it.

Only in this way will his monster soldiers have a chance to compete with the Green Capital Legion in the future.

……

As expected, the army of the undead arrived as scheduled.

It was an overwhelming sea of corpses, a sea of bones, and a surging stream of unintelligent skeletons that were the main force of the undead tide, dotted with necrocs, wraiths, gargoyles, and even death knights.

They came to the edge of the northern realm, but instead of attacking immediately, they gathered in the distance, and the black knight stood still, as if waiting for something.

The scout gnolls had already reported the situation, but Caesar wanted to see for himself, so Hogg and Gal followed him through the Blackbranches and up a sandstone slope.

The strong black dragon half-erected, looking down at the almost endless sea of corpses, he knew how to accurately estimate the number of people.

"More than 10,000."

After observing for a moment, Caesar said that most of them were unintelligent skeletons with low combat effectiveness, but there were also many powerful undead mixed in, and there were also spellcasters.

"I think so, Your Majesty."

Hogg pointed as he spoke: "The strikers are reinforced skeleton soldiers, equipped with swords and bone shields, and equipped with bone arrows for long-range strikes, the right wing is the corpse witch, and the left wing is the wraith, most of them know some minor spells, and the number is about two thousand each." ”

"There are twice as many undead as the evil race."

Caesar said that, from a distance, the high-ranking undead were indistinguishable from humans, wearing helmets made of steel and blood on their torn cloaks.

"It's true, but the undead are generally low in combat power, and they can't be compared to the evil dependents of adults, and the numerical superiority can't help them win a victory."

Gal smacked his lips and said that after seeing the more terrifying Green Capital Legion, the orcs were unafraid in the face of such a battle.

"What do you say? Can you defeat the army of the undead? ”

"It's easy." The Orc Commander replied.

"But it also needs to bleed."

Hogg added, "But I guess that's exactly what your majesty wants, and the underground race has been forged and tested in this war before it has the ability to kill Eladya. ”

When the black dragon returned to its lair, it was almost dawn, and the light of the dark area reappeared, but it was still gray, and a cloudy wind was blowing in the north.

The trench around the family camp was half-dug and the forest was full of boar men, who were cutting branches from the black branches and cutting them into stakes outside the trenches.

Such fortifications were unnecessary in Caesar's view, they were not at war with humans, they were not afraid of pain and menace of the undead, and these things were of little value.

However, the Boar People are strange creatures of the Dark Lands, with a diligence and caution that is very different from other clans, and they do not stop to rest in undefended camps, and all Boar People without exception insist that they must build fortifications.

The Black Dragon Lord let them go.

They are not very combative, but they may have untapped engineering talents.

Caesar thought, and then said to the leader of the boar people, "Pavre, let your people stop and rest, the undead are ready for war." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, the warriors are hungry for blood."

So far, the Boar People Clan has performed quite well, and Pavre has a higher status in the Black Dragon's heart than the leaders of powerful clans such as the Manticore Lion and the Dog Demon, and the Boar People are quick to react, tireless, and tireless in all the details, which may be of great use in the future.

Soon, Caesar gathered his dependents, and he remembered the name of the leader of each clan under his command - after the evil race joined Caesar, the leader had to go to the black dragon's lair every three days to tell the black dragon lord about the recent situation of the clan.

Since he often visited the habitats of different clans, Caesar was able to roughly know the specific situation of each of these guys.

The monsters soon gathered, and the clan leaders arrived at the Black Dragon's Lair, all kneeling before their masters.

"The undead want war, and we give them war."

When everyone gathered, the black dragon, who was hidden in the darkness and was so strong that it was a little terrifying, said slowly: "Take the initiative to attack, I want you to attack tonight, under the cover of night." ”

"But they have skeleton dogs and spellcaster scouts, Your Majesty."

"Oh?"

Caesar stared at the many clan leaders under his command, scarlet eyes swimming between them: "Are you afraid? ”

"My king."

The leader of the lizardmen stepped forward: "It's up to us to deal with the outlying whistles, they're not scouts, they're just a pile of barely moving skeletons. ”

"We can too." The distorted-looking burrower interjected.

"That's all."

The black dragon agreed: "You attack from three sides, with the lizards and diggers at the front, and the manticores and gray centaurs from the left and right. ”

"Dog Demon Clan, you claim to be the strongest, well, the most difficult task will be handed over to you."

Caesar's gaze swept over the clan leaders and began to assign tasks: "I want you to force your way through the middle in a wedge-shaped formation. ”

……

"Go, let me see if you are as fearless and tough as you boasted when you joined the Black Dragon Legion."

Caesar then watched as the clan leaders spent an hour hammering out all the details, agreeing on a strategy for joint action, arranging for each other's assistance and support, and how to deal with the unexpected.

During this process, the black dragon remained silent throughout the whole process, he wanted to see how far he could go in the face of war with the wisdom of these guys.

In the end, the clan leaders left with orders and waited for the darkness to fall.
