After seeing Palan, Verina originally hoped that her subordinate, who had been unrecognizable, would be able to take a good rest first. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info But Paland himself did not want to.

The disfigured general said to Verina quite seriously: "General, don't underestimate our opponent. If you want to delay longer against another enemy, you may be able to achieve your goal by setting up layers of defense posts and interception lines. But in the face of Conry's demon army, I think it's pointless. There is only a limit to the time we can procrastinate, and it is difficult to retreat calmly from the demons, and it will only be a waste of troops, and it will not be able to achieve the effect we want. ”

"I know what you mean, but we still have to. The city defense facilities of Shawan Port are too simple and not a fortified city. We can't fight the enemy here. But then again, the city is the best of Hindlaire's south. ”

"So, we have to evacuate some people from Bay Harbor as much as possible. It was no longer feasible to go by land, and I had already begun to arrange a large number of people to go by boat, by sea, towards the island of Komya. We're certainly not going to be able to evacuate everyone, but at least we'll be able to keep as many of the best as we can. ”

"As long as there are people, the city is destroyed, and at least there is still a spark of hope."

"Alas......" Paran sighed and said, "That...... General, do you mean, we are going to stay in Shawan Harbor for two days? ”

"Yes."

"The enemy may be in two or three days' time, and then the civilians and merchants can leave by ship from the sea, but we can't. We're going to defend White Wolf Castle, but if we don't leave the city until then, there's a big risk that we'll be bitten directly by Conrier's forces. General, have you thought about this situation? ”

Verina was silent for a moment and said, "Of course I thought about it, so that's why I set up the outpost. If a post can win half a day, we will make a lot of money; It's not too fast to hold on for an hour; Even if you can only hold on for half an hour, ten minutes, that's a value. ”

"Alas......" Paran sighed, according to his thoughts, the safest thing to do should be to abandon the city of Shawan Harbor, let those civilians fend for themselves, and then shrink to the White Wolf Fort with all his might, relying on the strong fortifications of the White Wolf Fort and sufficient logistical support to hold the city, that is the only chance to hold on to the pressure of Kangli's army.

Verina was silent for a moment, then continued: "We want to preserve some life for the harbor of Shawan and for the south of Hindlaire. You know, if we just walk away, we don't know how many people will die after the Shawan port is breached. These people are dead, and even if we win the war, all that remains is a ruin. ”

"I listen to you." What else can Paland do? Only nodding his head.

……

While Verina was arranging the evacuation of Shawan Harbor in the south and arranging delaying tactics with the enemy, on the outskirts of Ice Cave City in the north, the combined forces of Dane and Ozer had been fighting with Army Group North for two days.

After two days of fighting, no one took much advantage. On the first day, relying on the advantage of attacking from both sides, Ou Ze and Dane really dealt a certain blow to the Northern Army Group after agreeing to attack at the same time, but they were unable to defeat the other party in one go, after all, the enemy had a large number of troops, and after falling into a disadvantage at the beginning, they quickly adjusted.

Under the continuous dispatch of troops, Galvin and Anders personally struck together, led a large number of main forces of the Northern Army, concentrated on dealing with the east, and drove Ozer back. And Dane originally wanted to take advantage of the fact that the main force of Army Group North was dealing with Ou Ze's troops, and take the opportunity to dispatch sharp soldiers to fight a surprise attack, hoping to try to penetrate the enemy's troops, and maybe he could get unexpected results.

As a result, Ozer retreated a little quickly.

Seeing that Ou Ze chose to blow the horn to withdraw his troops, it was of course impossible for Dane to continue to act recklessly. Without Ozer in front of him to attract the attention of the enemy, it would be impossible for Dane's thousands of soldiers, no matter how elite they were, to charge towards ten times the enemy. If there were 40,000 miscellaneous soldiers in front of him, maybe Dane would dare to play a big vote, but the Northern Army, as a legion integrated by the governor of Kangli, was not bad in combat. If he really dared to rush forward without his life, then most of the result would be to really lose his life.

Dane was a little dissatisfied with Ozer's early retirement, but he actually felt that today was indeed a good opportunity. However, after all, the two sides are two armies, and they have never had the energy to fight side by side, so it is of course very normal that they cannot be intimate. Dane didn't have to say anything, otherwise it was uncertain whether it would have a beneficial impact on the next battle, but it was very likely to tear a rift in the already intimately cooperative relationship between the two sides.

However, when the battle still didn't make much progress the next day, Dane was a little anxious.

Although, in terms of the exchange ratio of troops, with the addition of Dane, he and Ou Ze's side actually have a slight advantage. Especially with the troops on Dane's side, often if one soldier dies on his side, the enemy will pay for the lives of three or four soldiers. If they continue to fight like this, Dane and Ou Ze will fight steadily, hold the advantage, and finally slowly wear off, and the two sides will bleed together, if anyone can hold on longer, the bigger victory will be on his and Ou Ze's side.

Dane could see this, and Ozer certainly could see it. Even, Dane could understand that the reason why Ou Ze didn't fight too hard for two days in a row was actually thinking about this matter.

If the rear is stable, Dane will support such a fight. What's so bad about that? The more aggressive the strategy, the easier it is to leave loopholes, the easier it is to be seized by Army Group North, and thus it is possible to bury the advantages that have been built up so hard. It's like a python, it's just strangling the other party to the death, strangling the enemy to suffocation, even if you need to pay some price, what's so bad?

But the problem is no, Dane's backyard is not just on fire now, it's about to erupt! How could he follow Ou Ze's idea and fight the enemy slowly?

So, on the night of the 22nd, when the battle was over, the horn was sounded, and the troops were about to fight again another day, Dain directly sent Master Joel to Ozer's army as an emissary, and obtained a magical audio and shadow contact with the governor.

Looking at Ou Ze, who was obviously only middle-aged, but was already full of gray hair, Dane first said hello, and then immediately cut to the topic: "I hope we can launch a general attack on the enemy as soon as possible." ”

Wearing a dull silver metal close-fitting armor, Ou Ze stroked the same white beard on his chin with one hand and said, "It's too risky. Don't be in such a hurry, Dane, we have some advantages now, why not keep them up? You know, our forces will not be much stronger than Army Group North, and if we really want to launch a general offensive and fight a decisive battle, it is unknown who will win and who will lose. ”

Dane sneered and said, "Yes, you can boil them slowly, I can't, my nest is about to be served!" ”

Ou Ze shook his head and said, "Dane, it's not me who said, in fact, you should also understand." At this time, the fate of the two of us is tied together, and I will not deliberately harm you. But think about it, our army, our battlefield is in the far north of Hindlaire, and your territory is in the far south of Hindlaire. Even if we completely wipe out Army Group North tomorrow, if we immediately turn around and head south, will we really be able to save the White Wolf Castle? ”

Dane said, "You don't have to worry about this. ”

Ou Ze continued to persuade bitterly: "You know Kang Li's ability, the five thousand soldiers he brought with him are the most elite team in his hands. Not to mention for the time being, the 10,000 demon army that he personally controlled and led was also a terrifying force. Your main forces are now in the north, how many people can stay in White Wolf Castle? How much combat power can it have? We marched south from Ice Cave City to the White Wolf Castle, and it would take half a month for us to march quickly, and the White Wolf Castle would definitely not be able to support it at that time. ”

"In that case, let's think about it rationally, take a big risk, just to save the White Wolf Castle, which is too late to rescue? What's the point? ”

"You just listen to me, work with me, first use the safest way to completely wipe out the northern group army in Conrier, and then we will join forces again, go south together, find Conriment, kill the traitor, the accomplice of the devil, and then wipe out the demons who have lost their command in the whole territory of Sindlaire, and Sindelair will restore peace."

"In the future, Hindlaire will be the two of us, and we will work together to build this wild, war-torn land into a truly beautiful land, wouldn't it? I've been in the Beast Blood Castle for so many years, and I don't want to move the nest anymore, I just want to confuse the city, and the rest of the places will be given to you. Moreover, I am not young, I will not live many years, and in a few decades, I will grow old and die, and you will be in the prime of life, and you will be the only leader in this land. ”

Ozer said a lot. When he said these words, even the Knight of Eldel, who had been with him for many years, felt incredible—when would his own governor talk so much about people? Said he wanted to share Schindlaire with Dane? He even said that after he died, Sindelair would be owned by Dane alone? Is this what the governor can say?

And Dane, who was standing across from them, had a different idea.

There is no doubt that Ozer painted him a big pie. And, looking at Ozer's appearance, it seems that Dane will definitely accept his proposal.

Actually, to be honest, if Dane were an ordinary warlord, he would have agreed if he couldn't do it. The big deal is that the two cities have been breached, and after the destruction of the Northern Army, the entire Hindlaire is his own, where is there any loss to eat?

In this sense, Mihe City is lost, and Dane is not distressed; Arnold collar and iron nail post were lost, and Dane was not distressed. Anyway, the two territories that have just been occupied, what is there to lose by returning them? Even, even Shawan Harbor and Rotten Wolf Town were all lost, and Dane was distressed, and he would not be in pain. Although, those were two large money bags, but in exchange for half of Hindlaire, the business was still done.

But not at White Wolf Castle. Dane's human sanctuary base is built in the White Wolf Castle!

If the White Wolf Fort is breached, and the human base that has been built for so long will be finished! When the time comes, where will Dane find another Templar town hall to rebuild?

The permanent loss of a system base in this way is a loss that Dane will never accept.

However, at this point, it is impossible for Dane to tell Ozeming. In this case, he simply didn't think of any excuses, and said to Ou Ze quite bluntly and toughly: "We must launch a general attack as soon as possible, and after the war, you must borrow me 10,000 soldiers." Can you agree to both of these conditions? ”

Ou Ze was caught off guard, he didn't expect that he had said so much and persuaded so much, and Dane was still like this. His expression became quite angry, and the power of the sixteenth-level Sword Saint, even if it was separated by a layer of spell screens, was undoubtedly revealed!

He said angrily: "You are so stubborn?!" ”

Dane didn't pay any attention to his anger, no matter what the Sword Master behaved, he was on his side, and Dane didn't want to have anything to do with him. He said directly: "I don't have any intention of discussing with you, I have already given my bottom line, these two conditions are indispensable." If you all agree, we will plan an all-out attack; If you don't say yes, well, don't wait for tomorrow, I'll withdraw my troops tonight. ”

Hearing Dane threaten with the words 'withdraw troops', Ozer was furious! The meticulous hair was blown to the ground under the invisible force that rose up around him. His piercing eyes glared at Dane and said in a deep voice, "You dare?!" ”

Unfazed, Dane took a step forward with his chest held out and said, "Why don't I dare? If you don't agree, I'll withdraw my troops, it's as simple as that. ”

Ozer was very angry.

He really wanted to reject Dane on the spot and let this short-sighted idiot get out of the way. But no, without Dane's 5,000 elite soldiers, he couldn't defeat the Northern Army alone.

Calming down his anger, Ozer didn't speak for a long time.

Dane is not in a hurry, it is only getting dark now, the soldiers are still having dinner, it is still very early until tomorrow's dawn, and there is time to think about Ozer.

In the end, as expected, under Dane's firm will, Ozer chose to compromise and listened to his advice to start a decisive battle as soon as possible. (To be continued.) )
