Chapter 684: Retake the Territory

Seeing that Li Ran's thinking was clear, and even the dangerous positions of the arming had been marked, Zhou Xun and the others knew that these were all thoughtful by him, and while sighing, they also raised questions about some of the arming issues.

Although the general direction has been decided, there are still many problems when it comes to specific implementation, so the meeting lasted for nearly half a day before it ended, and it was not until the evening that Zhou Xun and others left the conference hall.

That night, presided over by Zhou Xun, all his teammates in Thun City were summoned in the company's lounge to tell the story and the details of the specific action.

In this way, for the next two days, all preparations were in full swing, until the early morning of the third day, although the sky was still fluttering with snowflakes and blowing a harsh cold wind, as the gate of the territory was opened, nearly 20,000 warriors and no less than their number of logisticians walked out, followed by hundreds of convoys pulled by pack beasts and horses, and drove for several kilometers towards the Leices Mountains.

In addition to almost all the warriors in the territory, the number of cold-proof tents brought out of the many supplies alone amounted to more than 7,000 felt, and there were as many as 300 carts of grain, vegetables, and jerky, plus 120 ballistae and countless quilts and furs, the scale was very huge.

Because of the weather and the heavy convoy, the cavalry could reach it in half a day and the army in a day, but they did not arrive at the first garrison point until the afternoon of the next day.

After stationing the large army, at noon the next day, under the leadership of Xia Houben, Phantom Bingnan, Zhou Tong, Qian Hui and others, a thousand mantis warriors, six hundred barbarian cattle and a large number of cavalry troops continued to move forward with a small amount of wild living materials, and slowly drove towards the elven territory with nearly 60,000 troops.

Among these people, the willows on the dusk and the moon were also among them, and at this time, they looked back at the large army that had basically completed the deployment in the dangerous position in the rear, and the two couldn't help but glance at each other.

These two people, who are deeply senior professionals and have special identities, should have gone back some time ago. But the loss of the elven territory made the two stay again, one was to help, and the other was to see how Li Ran could survive this crisis.

However, what they didn't expect was that on the surface, Li Ran seemed to give up there because there was no way. But just yesterday, as soon as they went online, they found that the entire territory was already in a state of combat readiness, and through inquiry, Cao Dayong and others did not hide it, and only then did they know today's action. Unexpectedly, Li Ran chose to besiege the elf territory in this weather.

Because of the invasion of the elven territory, they had also talked to the third uncle Hu Hualin and the old man before, and even tried to deduce it once or twice at home, combining Li Ran's existing strength and opponent's situation, the final conclusion was that with Li Ran's existing troops, this situation could only be maintained at most, although it would not be broken through the city of Thun by the other party, but it was very difficult to regain the elven territory.

Originally, when they heard the news of sending troops, they thought that Li Ran was just impulsive, but when they heard Cao Dayong say the reason why Li Ran sent troops, they suddenly realized. It turned out that Li Ran's war against the elven territory had actually started as early as the day he learned that the territory had been seized, but the theme of this war was food.

They have been here for a while, except for lamenting the territory and strength that Li Ran has, they didn't see any difference in this person, on the contrary, they were still a little disappointed in the execution ability of Li Ran and his men, but until this time, when their army really went out, they suddenly had a feeling that the mountain rain was about to come and the wind was full of buildings.

At this moment, the two of them could not only sigh at the depth of Li Ran's city. For months, even his own teammates didn't know about his plan, and they were amazed at the team's behavior and morale.

When Li Ran gave the order, this territory that seemed to be peaceful on weekdays was like a killing machine that had been parked for a long time and suddenly had its switch pressed. Whether it is material collection or ordnance and equipment, it has all been prepared in just one or two days, and watching the excitement of those soldiers when they receive the war preparation materials, the confidence on their faces unconsciously is enough to prove that they are the real elite of the killing field. It's not those who seem to be at a high level, but are new to battle for the first time.

At this time, they went out with the Phantom Ice Man, this little girl who usually looks cute and well-behaved, her strength is only in the middle of the training, but she leads nearly a thousand high-level frost mastiffs is the key to this war, and following her to patrol is also the proposal of the moon willow tree, which Li Ran also agreed.

Unlike usual, this little girl still looked shy when she was in the army, but since the moment she led the frost mastiff to fight alone, the smile on her face was still the same, but the momentum of the whole person was completely different, and that calmness and calmness were by no means at the same time.

And in the next few days of battle, this little girl was very comfortable in commanding the raid and facing the encirclement and suppression of the elves, and these unruly frost mastiffs were also like an arm under her command, and at the forefront of the entire encirclement, like an unpredictable hurricane swept away, giving blows in the face of a small number of collectors and escorts, and being flexible when being surrounded and suppressed by the other party, and several times introduced it into the second line of defense, Cooperate with the cavalry led by Xia Houben and Zhou Tong to eliminate the other party.

In just two days, the two of them made a judgment based on their own experience, that is, this elven tribe is dangerous.

And the development of events was just as they expected, on the sixth day after they completed the siege, this elven tribe finally couldn't bear it, and instead of sitting still and waiting to die, besieged by the other party, they chose to face the war head-on.

Without the advantage of defending the city, this elven army, which had been hungry for months due to food problems and whose strength had plummeted, could not break through the defensive line deployed by Li Ran at the dangerous pass, and those few legendary-level green dragons and numerous forest dragon beasts were even more because of the lack of food, and the latter even lost the ability to swallow the weak dragon breath, and suffered heavy casualties under the attack of more than a hundred ballistas.

In the snow melee combat, these elven warriors also lost their original agility and speed, coupled with the decline in physical fitness caused by food problems, they were crushed in the face of Li Ran's many powerful troops, and the battle was only halfway through, seeing that the situation was unfavorable, the leader of this elven tribe had no choice but to retreat to the territory.
