Chapter 462: Kicking Off (2-in-1)

In the end, Ice Cave City and Beast Blood Castle still didn't dare to really carry the orders of Dane, and they still took out the army in earnest. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

It's just that the standard of 10,000 people given to them by Dane was directly discounted and became 5,000.

It's a bit annoying.

Actually, Dane didn't really value the people they sent out that much, but the attitude of those guys made him feel very unhappy.

In fact, from this incident, we can also see the mentality of those old subordinates of Ou Ze - vacillating and undecided.

They obviously didn't dare to really raise the flag and be independent, but they didn't want to let them obey Dane's orders like this.

Through the transfer of troops, their mentality was vividly displayed. I didn't dare to disobey the order, and I was reluctant to really send 10,000 people. So there was this kind of folding in half.

After weighing it for a moment, Dane felt that this matter could still be put aside for a while. After all, Ice Cave City and Beast Blood Castle have at least sent people out, which means that there is still room for relaxation in the north and east, and Dane does not intend to start a war lightly.

However, the five thousand people sent by the two cities, Dane did not intend to let go. He planned to swallow these 5,000 people, swallow them into his own hands, and digest them into his own strength.

He was going to send a general to receive the troops.

Now, under his influence, there are actually very few people who have obtained the rank of general. Counting from the beginning, Chappell is a lieutenant general, Pechins is a lieutenant general, and Verina is a lieutenant general. Further down, Paran is a major general, Ozer was a former lieutenant and now the commander of the Governor's Guards, and the knight of Elder is only a major general.

Apart from the five of them, Dane didn't have any other generals in his hands.

After the end of Hindlaire's all-out war, Dane's forces were rewarded for meritorious deeds. Most of the rewards were money, and some officers were promoted in rank and treatment.

But only at the level of colonel's promotion to major general, Dane is very strict. He didn't really have the ability and need to be in charge, and Dane would never give the title of 'general'.

It is precisely this situation that has led to the strange situation of three lieutenant generals and two major generals under his five generals.

In this strange situation, Dane did not take the initiative to change it. He certainly doesn't mind recruiting a new general if there is a need for this.

For example, this time, Pandorf became the 'lucky one'.

Before the army was about to leave, Dane revealed his hope that someone could go to the east and receive the troops from the direction of Ice Cave City and Beast Blood Castle.

Pandorf.

"Boss, let me go."

Pandorf is also an old subordinate of Dane, and he is also a connection of the dreadnosaur family. Moreover, what is very special is that unlike other people of the dreadnosaur line, who were installed by Dain in the White Wolf Legion and the Governor's Guard Legion, the troops he Pandorf has been leading are all Sword Dancer troops.

Because, although he is a human, he is one of the first sword dancers in Dane's territory.

As a human sword dancer, he followed Dain to fight in the north and south, and he was already the captain of the sword dancer brigade in the battle of the orcs before Morno died. In the subsequent wars of the Dane forces, he almost did not lose a single one, and all of them participated in the war.

Pandorf can really be regarded as an old subordinate with a long history and many military achievements.

In fact, he had the rank of colonel before he experienced Hindlaire's all-out war, and he was a high-ranking officer in the ranks of Dane's main army, serving as a wing commander.

But, despite this, he was still so close to the threshold of the general, and he couldn't kick it open.

It stands to reason that his qualifications are much older than Palan's.

And this time, the reason why Pandorf came to the door so eagerly was that he hoped to get a chance to kick the door open.

It is good to be a wing commander, but it is not as attractive as the reputation of a regimental commander and a general.

"Pandorf, I'm relieved that you go. However, you must know that I need you to control that army for me, but I can't give you too many men. This is dangerous. Have you figured it out? ”

"I've figured it out." The veteran sword dancer said, "It's not more dangerous to fight the Northern Army on the outskirts of Ice Cave City, right?" ”

This is true, in the original battle, he personally led the team and served as the vanguard and main force in the decisive battle.

"Hmm." Dane nodded and said, "I'll give you a squadron of wolf horsemen as your personal guard, and send you thirty experienced officers, plus thirty recent graduates of the military department of Hindlaire University, these will be the team you will control that army." People, you can pick by yourself, but I only have one request, give me a smooth control of that legion, do you have the confidence to complete the task? ”

Pandorf gave Dane a military salute and said, "I promise to complete the mission!" ”

"Okay, let's go."

……

On the evening of February 9, Dane convened a military meeting.

During this military meeting, Dane announced plans for an attack on Cinderella and set a time for the army to be deployed.

At the same time, towards the end of the meeting, he also announced a personnel transfer: Pandorf was awarded the rank of major general and at the same time appointed commander of the Fourth Army Corps of Sindelare.

The so-called Fourth Legion is naturally the army of 5,000 people from Ice Cave City and Beast Blood Castle.

February 10th, early in the morning.

Pandorf left Mihe City with the officers he had selected overnight, as well as a squadron of personal guards, a total of more than a hundred people, and headed all the way to the northeast.

And after Pandorf walked for two hours, Dane's army also slowly pulled out and headed straight for Cinderella.

At present, Dane's military strength is very different from the past. The Fourth Legion, which has only one shadow for the time being, is not counted, Dane now has three legions, more than 20 wings, and a total of nearly 30,000 combatable troops.

Among them, the most powerful is the Governor's Guards led by Elder. The establishment of seven wings, among which there is also a heavy cavalry regiment of 1,000 people, which is the old capital of the Governor of Ou Ze when he was fighting, and his combat effectiveness is good.

In addition, Dane also split his former main army into two legions.

One is the White Wolf Legion, and the main force is naturally the human troops trained at the White Wolf Fort base.

The strength of the White Wolf Legion is actually similar to that of the Governor's Guard, although there are only six wings, but the main strength is composed of the White Wolf Guardian and the Pure Swordsman, two types of troops who defend and attack, but are very good at frontal combat. At the same time, there were five brigades of crossbowmen, as well as seven brigades of more than two thousand wolf cavalry. In addition, the griffin cavalry brigade flying in the sky also belongs to the White Wolf Legion, and at the same time belongs to the White Wolf Legion, as well as Dane's heavy firepower formation.

In fact, although the White Wolf Legion's troop configuration is one or two thousand fewer than the Governor's Guards Legion. But in fact, there is really going to be a fight......

Dane was able to rely on 5,000 men, which was enough to balance the overall situation in the event of a full-scale war with Sindlaire. What's more, his White Wolf Legion now has nearly 10,000 establishments.

The commander of the White Wolf Legion is now nominally Lieutenant General Chapur, but in fact, Chapur has become the chief of logistics and is also in charge of the municipal management of the White Wolf Castle, but in fact, he is no longer very involved in specific military affairs. It was Dane himself who really fulfilled the duties of the Legion Commander.

And the third legion that split from his main army in the past was the Komyrya legion.

The strength of this legion is the smallest. An army of Sword Dancers, Ranger and Nightblade Panther Cavalry had only four wings. Their ability to fight head-on is a little weak, but if it were to take turns to fight a blitzkrieg, the Komyrya Legion would be a nightmare for all enemies.

Moreover, there are more than just elven armies in the Komyrya Legion today. Although the Minotaur, Medusa, and Drow Samurai have not yet experienced the test of war, once their strength is displayed on the battlefield, I am afraid that many people will be surprised! In addition, Dane also had a cold-blooded cavalry of 300 men in his hand, and they were also included in the Cormier United.

The cold-blooded cavalry, compared to the human heavy cavalry of the Governor's Guard, is superior in impact and combat effectiveness!

Not to mention, in Dane's direct guard, there are also three hundred Templar Knights, including one hundred elite Templars, and the average professional level has reached level ten or above. In addition, there is a group of 300 mages and hundreds of druids who serve as a support group for spellcasters.

This kind of strength, if it was put a year and a half ago, during the period of Sindlaire's all-out war, his own family could beat Conry and Ozer, it is not an exaggeration at all.

It was precisely because of this crushing power in his hands that Dane felt that he was fully prepared to start this war to recover Cinderella.

During the process of the legion's withdrawal, Dane and his officers and staff group did not miss the information about Cinderella transmitted back from the Mafia Academy to study.

At the beginning, after Kang Li carried out the city-wide sacrifice, there were almost 40,000 demons summoned.

This data is the final data calculated after the Mask Master Black Hand Academy took over Dane's intelligence system.

In the beginning, no one knew how many demons had emerged from Cinderella. At that time, according to the initial intelligence estimates, it was 20,000 to 30,000 heads.

However, in the case that Dane's forces are bound to wipe out the demons in the entire territory of Hindlaire, the mask says that such rough data cannot be used to make a battle plan, and more detailed information must be available. So, her spies went out everywhere to investigate intelligence, estimated the number of demons, and finally came up with the figure of 40,000.

Ten thousand demons have been defeated in the White Wolf Castle. The demons of the defeated army scattered into the wilderness, only to be hunted down by hordes of adventurers under Dane's "Spell Extinguishing Order". Even, there are many adventurers from other countries, and even some mercenary groups with outstanding strength, when they hear that there are demons here, and the governor pays a high bounty, they will come across the ocean, ready to make a fortune. This even includes an orc mercenary group of more than two hundred people from the Eastern Wasteland, and in this orc mercenary group, there are even dozens of Kukaron warriors.

Moreover, Dane also sent troops to exterminate the demon herd at the beginning. Among them, the key targets are, of course, the White Wolf Fort and the vicinity of Shawan Harbor.

Thanks to the efforts of the adventurers, those demons who retreated from the White Wolf Castle had a very difficult time after scattering in the south. Only half a year after the issuance of the magic extinguishing order, it was wiped out to the point that there was not much left. In the south now, it's rare to hear of demons haunting.

In addition, there are about 10,000 demons who went north to attack the city of Confusion and occupy it.

The remaining 20,000 demons are all gathered in Cinderella and the surrounding area. This is the hardest hit area of the demonic disaster.

Fortunately, in the past two years, Cinderella and the demons of Chaos City have been relatively stable. Although there are often small groups of demons in the Sinderella region that invade the central county, but in general, with the efforts of adventurers, these demons rarely really cause great damage. If it weren't for the fact that the Sinderella region had completely turned into a demonic disaster area, and even the villages and towns of the living could not be seen, and it became extremely dangerous, I am afraid that a larger number of adventurers would dare to venture into it.

For example, there was a mercenary group that died back then, and he dared to go to Cinderella to do something.

The goal of Dane's military operation this time is mainly on Cinderella. As for how to solve the problem of Chaos City, he had another idea in his head, so he didn't need to worry about it for the time being.

His plan was not complicated. He planned to take the army and sweep around Cinderella first.

The demons outside the city and in the suburbs of Cinderella, according to the information given by the mask, should still have three or five thousand. This group of demons is not small, although it is relatively scattered, but if these demons gather together during the attack on Cinderella, it will undoubtedly pose a certain threat to Dane's army.

Therefore, he planned to clear this area first to relieve the worries of the future, and then plot against Cinderella to have a decisive battle with the remaining fifteen-odd demons.

On the 13th of February, Dane, who was in a hurry, finally entered the area of Cinderella and encountered the first battle. At the same time, this also marks the official start of the Demon Slaying Crusade.
