Chapter 115: Gran Fortress

Higg sneered: "Lord Commander, you won't be unclear about the current situation of the Fifth Legion!" 200,000 rebels support Arad and more than 400,000 troops support Her Majesty, but how many of these 400,000 troops have been infiltrated and how many are wavering? Marshal Montgosser's 400,000 troops were not unable to defeat the 200,000 rebels, but he was not sure how many of his 400,000 would defect! The Fifth Legion has a serious illness, and this serious illness needs to be cured by fierce medicine! ”

Habaisa sneered and asked, "What did Mr. Angela tell me about this?" ”

Higg smiled: "Of course, the Lord Commander will not fail to understand, what does it mean for the barbarian army to arrive at the Ural Grand Canyon? An army of 300,000 troops stationed in the Ural Grand Canyon and approaching the Kuba fortress, even if they do not attack, they can discourage the Fifth Army Corps, let the wavering generals fall to Arad, and Marshal Montgossar will face more rebels and barbarian armies in front and rear, and he will gradually lose control of the army! Your Excellency, even if you are loyal to Her Majesty at that time, what can you do with a fortress of 30,000 people? Moreover, how many of the 30,000 people in the fortress are under the orders of the Commander, and the Commander should know in his heart, right? ”

Habaisa said disheartenedly: "I know what can I do, this is already a dead end, how can I change it as a small commander?" ”

Higg smiled: "Your Excellency, I said that the Fifth Legion is terminally ill and must be cured with strong medicine!" Lord Commander, the Koopa Fortress is at a delicate juncture, and a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity awaits the Lord Commander! ”

Habaisa's eyes lit up, and he got up and asked Sig, "What is there any good idea for Mr. Angela?" ”

Higg also got up and said: "It's simple, keep the army of the barbarian country out of the Ural Gorge!" ”

Habaisa exclaimed, "Mr. Angela wants me to seize the barbarian country's Gran Fortress? How is this possible, the entire Kuba fortress is only 30,000 soldiers and horses, unless Marshal Michael comes in person, otherwise, the opponent's fortress has 30,000 horses, and there are no 100,000 elites, it is impossible to take it! ”

Higg smiled: "Don't worry, Lord Commander, since this matter was raised by us, of course we will do it, Lord Commander only needs to take over the fortress and do a good job of defense!" ”

Habaisa's eyes lit up and he asked, "How many soldiers and horses do you need?" What are the conditions? ”

"Two thousand dead!" Higg smiled, "I don't have any other conditions, as long as I can serve under the command of the Commander!" ”

"Hmph, I'm afraid that I won't be able to keep Mr. in this temple!" Habaisa said.

"Also," said Higg, "we must immediately send our cronies to Marshal Montgossar in person, and tell him our plans, so that he can make arrangements!" ”

"When to act?"

"Tomorrow night!" Higg said, "Lord Archon, the former Lord Trondo has a tendency to support Arad, and I guess it will take some time for my lord to clean up. At the same time, please also hold a funeral for Trondo tomorrow so that the defense of Gran Fortress will not be so tense, hehe! ”

……

Late at night, Swan Lakeside Village!

"Andrew, does Pit Four really have a passage to the bottom of Gran Fortress?" Higg asked, uneasy.

Andrew smiled and said, "The marshal personally sent someone to dig it up back then, otherwise how could he break through the fortress defense so quickly and catch the barbarian country by surprise?" The marshal also set up a special mechanism to cover it, except for the few dead soldiers back then, few people knew that there was this secret hidden under the Gran Fortress! Gampoch, Butterfly Caiyun and Pantony have already brought people to investigate, and news will soon be available. ”

Higg asked, "Don't you know that the barbarian country has been attacked?" ”

Andrew smiled: "Hehe, there was no room for the Gran Fortress back then, how did they know that the fortress was attacked by a sneak attack?" ”

Johnson said: "More than 2,000 people, it will take at least an hour to get out of the tunnel completely!" And the other side's sentinels will communicate signals every hour, so after the sentinels have exchanged signals, we must quickly eliminate the sentinels near the exit, and then assemble on the spot! ”

Higg said: "Two thousand dead soldiers, plus more than a hundred of us, I plan to divide into five detachments, the first team is led by me, and directly controls the commander of the opponent's fortress; The second team, Andrew, is responsible for clearing the guards at the main checkpoints; The third team, Johnson, was responsible for controlling the fortress gatehouse; The fourth team, Gampoch, is responsible for controlling the barracks, and the fifth team is Kolincha, leading the elven archers and crossbowmen, responsible for fire support suppression! ”

……

When Gampoch, Pantony, and Butterfly returned and reported that the passage was clear, all the plans had been arranged. More than 2,000 people took advantage of the pre-dawn night to march towards the entrance to Mine No. 4.

The location of the entrance to the No. 4 pit has been expanded by Pan Dongni, and everyone entered the No. 4 pit before dawn, guided by Pan Tony and Butterfly Caiyun, along the more than 20 kilometers long tunnel.

……

After a day's march in the tunnel, by the time it was dark, all the men and horses had assembled in the tunnel at the exit of the passage to rest, just waiting for the order to act.

Four hours before dawn, Higg, Johnson, Andrew, Gampoch, and Corincha came out of the ground exit and locked on to nearby sentinels.

After the various sentinels completed the signal exchange, the five of them quickly and silently killed the sentinels in an instant, and Colincha's longbow even shot through the neck of the sentinel on the arrow tower without a sound.

After the trouble was resolved, Higg cast an air shield spell that completely enveloped the exit position, cutting off the sound of the sword impact from the outside world. Casting this magic skill is very risky, and if the opponent has a high-level magic guide patrolling, it is easy to detect the magic fluctuations in the space.

The location of the exit is two drainage channels, which are very hidden, and the place that comes out of the drainage ditch is also in the middle of the fortress, just avoiding the patrolling guards. It's winter, the dry season, and there's not much water, so it's easy for more than 2,000 people to line up in two columns and quickly come to the designated position from the two exits.

It is necessary to wait until all the people are basically assembled before they can act in unison, because the opponent has several patrol teams, and it is easy to find out if they act alone or kill the opponent's sentry.

An hour's wait seemed to everyone to be a very long time, but fortunately, the assembly was basically completed when the other party's sentinel signals were exchanged.

At the sound of an order, the five teams, according to the predetermined plan and the predetermined goal, quickly disappeared into the night.

The first to attack were Corincha's elven archers, who shot most of the sentinels with precision.

"Enemy attack!" Shouts, trumpets, and swords rang out inside the fortress.

With Thomas, Pantony, and a hundred dead soldiers, Higg cast an acceleration magic skill and ran directly towards the barracks of the commander, and all the guards who stood in his way instantly collapsed in front of Higg's team, or were killed, or fled to call for reinforcements.

The fortress of Gran suddenly became chaotic, and the sleeping barbarian soldiers had no idea how the enemy could suddenly appear in front of them, no one knew what was happening, no one knew how many enemies had rushed into their fortress.

Andrew led three hundred dead soldiers and twenty veterans, divided into groups of twenty, and with the cooperation of Korincha, quickly cleared the guards of the checkpoint. These veterans and dead soldiers are the elite of the elite with extraordinary combat power, and those guards who have not reacted at all are the opponents of these elite dead soldiers.

Johnson led 500 dead men to quickly climb the walls of the fortress, braving the axes sporadically inspired by the two arrow towers, and quickly climbed up, entangled with the previous guards on the walls.

The heaviest task was Gampochi, who led a thousand dead men to attack the opponent's barracks, with more than 20,000 enemy men, although they did not have time to arm, but they were numerous, and if they were not controlled by taking advantage of the chaos, they would cause great trouble. Fortunately, the barbarian soldiers did not know how many people rushed into the barracks, but only felt the flames, screams, swords, and angry scolding...... Some are looking for their own equipment, some team leaders want to organize a counterattack immediately, some are busy fighting fires, and some are busy running for their lives......

Twenty wolf knights, a dozen orcs, and seven or eight ogres surrounded the leader's barracks, these are the personal guards of the commander, and they are also the elite of the elite, perhaps, there are still magicians hidden in the dark, but the magicians of the barbarians are limited, and Higg is more worried about these strong guards.

Without so much time to think about it, Higg immediately ordered the team to attack, and as soon as he made a move, it was a chain of lightning that hit the dozen or so orc phalanx, and immediately seven or eight half-orcs fell to the ground, and the others were also struck by lightning and temporarily lost their chaos and lost their combat power. These troublesome axe-throwing guys, if not dealt with first, will definitely cause a lot of damage when their own team attacks.

Twenty wolf knights and seven or eight ogres immediately greeted them, entangled with a hundred dead men.

The ogre is a kind of guard class that is not very lethal, but has super defense, and these wolf knights are more dead than the dead, they basically ignore their own defense, relying on the rapid movement of the wolf under the seat, and cooperate with the ogre, quickly causing huge damage to the opponent.

Higg's team was initially suppressed by the opponent's perverted tactics, and the combination of the ogre's super defense and the wolf knight's super lethality and mobility ability immediately made more than a dozen of Higg's men fall in a pool of blood, while the other party basically had no casualties.

Fortunately, more than a dozen elven archers arrived in time and suppressed the opponent's formation. The Higgti sword rushed into the opponent's ranks, charging left and right, regardless of the scarring, completely disrupting the opponent's formation. Thomas and Pantony quickly rushed into the chaos with dozens of dead men, slashing and slashing with all their might.

Although the ogre's attack power is not high, it is only compared to the same level of troops, being hit by the ogre's fist still makes people dizzy, and almost makes Hig spurt blood.

Higg bypassed the ogre and kicked open the door of the commander's barracks directly, and several lightning clicks hit him, although he had a magical armor to protect himself and remove most of the magic damage, but it also made Hig feel that his body was about to burn. Before Higg had time to think about it, he also unleashed a huge fireball forward, and with a bang, the huge fireball lifted the roof, and then several screams came from the lightning trigger.

"Fourth Order, Hellfire?" Even Xige himself was taken aback, and before he had time to use the Fire Spirit Bead, he actually sent out a fourth-order hell fire, which made the other magician cry bitterly.

Higg, who was proud, suddenly felt the sound of the wind on his right, and he didn't have time to think about rolling forward on the spot, only to see that the position where he was standing was struck by a huge axe, and the dust was flying, and then an angry voice came: "If you dare to attack my fortress, you will all die!" ”
