043, deduce the military situation, speculate on hostility

Flavi replied, "Yes, the teleportation circle uses a type of space-time magic that allows people to travel from one place to another, and is the work of the mages of the magical tribe of Vizgerre in the later stages of the Original Sin War. However www.biquge.info this teleportation device powered by a magic torch still has certain side effects on the body of the teleportee, ranging from dizziness and vomiting in the lightest cases to the loss of limbs and organs, or even disappearance or death. In the past, only those mages with advanced mana could skillfully use teleportation circles under the protection of various magical shields, and civilians without mana could not use it. ”

Ling Dan continued to ask, "Then why are civilians able to use it now, and the number of people is less limited than that of transferees and mercenaries?" ”

Cage took over and replied, "This is because the current teleportation circle has been modified by the Supreme Heaven to use the power of light to drive instead of the magic torch, and the magic torch is now only used as a beacon to guide the location of time and space. The power of light is a gentle and pure power, and it will not cause a backlash to the human body like mana fluctuations, so the probability of a teleportation accident is much smaller. The reason why civilians are able to use the teleportation array is because the souls of civilians are still relatively weak, and they will not cause much disturbance when passing through the space-time passage; However, when the transferees wearing the badge of the transferee pass through the space-time channel, it will cause greater disturbance; As for mercenaries, who are similar to the transferees, they fall somewhere in between. As a result, each teleportation circle absorbs the power of light during the day, allowing 10 transferees, or 30 mercenaries, or 100 civilians to teleport per day. Once 10 civilians have teleported, it means that the teleportation quota of 3 mercenaries has been consumed, which is also equivalent to the quota of 1 transferee. If all the allocations are used up in a day, you must wait until the turbulence of time and space has subsided before you can continue teleportingβ€”for a day and night. Also, the Transferee and our mercenaries can activate the teleportation array by activating the Light Power in the emblem, and civilians can pass through directly. Correspondingly, demons and dark shifters cannot activate the teleportation array by activating the power of darkness. ”

"I see!" Ling Dan suddenly realized, "This is to prevent demons and dark casters from using teleportation arrays, lest they occupy a teleportation array and carry out reverse infiltration attacks on other human towns!" ”

"Exactly." Flavi admired Ling Dan's thinking a little, and couldn't help but add a few points to Ling Dan's evaluation in his heart.

"Well, I see." Ling Dan nodded. The concept of space-time turbulence is not unfamiliar to Ling Dan from Earth, and he also thinks that it is reasonable to consume a certain amount of time to carry out space teleportation, after all, in the theory of relativity, space-time should be one.

Ling Dan thought for a moment and continued, "In this way, although the teleportation circle cannot be a complete guarantee for the stronghold, it is still possible to mobilize high-level transferees after a certain period of time. As long as the stronghold's Rog garrison holds out for a while, they can always wait for support. In this way, relying only on the two of Poison Crow and Flame Crow, there is still no guarantee that the stronghold will be captured, and it is likely that they will all be annihilated because the main target is exposed! ”

"You're right. So, what do you think differently? Flavi nodded, letting Ling Dan continue.

Ling Dan looked around, paused, and then continued: "The Poisonous Crow marched from the Black Wasteland, joined forces with the Flame Crow of the Dark Forest, and first prepared to take out the supply depot of the Dark Forest stronghold, Enifos Town, and then intended to besiege the Dark Forest stronghold. If there were only flaming ravens, then everything would make sense, it would be a battle between the flaming ravens and the local defenders roaming the dark forest. But the poisonous crow actually came, which doesn't make sense. If I had to deduce it, I don't think their real target was the teleportation base! ”

After Ling Dan said this, everyone was shocked and suspicious, and they all stared at Ling Dan and waited for him to continue speaking. Ling Dan finally set his gaze on Flavi's face, and said without changing his face: "Lord Flavi, when the Rogs defeated the Blood Wasteland, Sister Akara and the Kasha leader still sent you to guard the junction of the Blood Wasteland and the Icy Plains, which can be said to be a heavy responsibility in the midst of danger. With your position and ability among the warriors of Rog, I don't think there is a second person under Lord Kashya. Therefore, you know better than we do the strategic significance of the Dark Forest stronghold. And now that Lord Kasha has sent you to guard the Dark Forest stronghold, I'm afraid it's not that simple, right? ”

Ling Dan's words shocked Flavi's heart, guarding the entrance to the Blood Wasteland was an old thing many years ago, and it stands to reason that Ling Dan couldn't know about it, unless someone superior told him all this! But what made Flavi even more uneasy was Ling Dan's analysis, which made Flavi fall into deep thought for a while.

As Ling Dan said, Kashya's arrangement of Flavi to guard the Dark Forest was a crucial point in the entire defense system of the Canduras region. For this reason, the garrison of the Dark Forest stronghold reached the size of two brigades of female warriors of Rog, second only to the stronghold of the Rogers in the territory of Canduras, the fortress of Tymo. Years ago, after the five heroes of humanity went deep into the monastery to kill Andariel, they needed to hurry to track down the Dark Wanderer, and there was no time to go back and kill the Countess entrenched in the dungeons of the Forgotten Tower. Thus, the scourge of the countess has been left to this day. Flavi is in the Dark Forest stronghold, in addition to cooperating with the Taimo Fortress to guard against the Countess's counterattack, what also needs to be closely guarded is the exit of the underground passage.

The Underground Passage, with its stony fields to the west and dark forests to the east, is the easiest route through the Boulder Mountains. However, in the depths of the underground passages, there are still a large number of demons that have not been cleaned. The Stone Wilderness, the Icy Plains, and the Blood Wastes are theoretically part of the rear of the humans in Canduras, but it's not uncommon for demons to come out of the underground passages to bloodied the pastures and villages behind the humans. The stronghold to the west of the underground passage is the Stone Wilderness stronghold, which also contains a large number of Rogers; The Dark Forest stronghold to the east of the underground passage relied on Flavi's defense to form the outer defense line of the Taimo Fortress. If the exit of the underground passage is not guarded, the Taimo Fortress will face the dilemma of being surrounded by the underground passage, the Forgotten Tower, and the monastery.

Ling Dan relied on his understanding of the geography of the dark game, analyzed step by step, pointed at Kashya's defensive strategy, and also put forward a new view of the strategic goal of the poisonous crow, which made Flavi both admired and nervous. Flavi muttered, "Could it be that the countess's purpose is to uproot the Dark Forest stronghold, occupy the exit of the underground passage, and then release all the demons in the underground passage?" Then, it is possible that the lightning ravens in the stone fields and the cold ravens in the Icy Plains will pass through the underground passages and join forces with the countess. At that time, the Countess's strength will be greatly increased, and it will be possible to compete with the Tymo Fortress! ”

Ling Dan listened to this, chewed carefully, but shook his head again: "No, my speculation is the opposite of yours. There are three reasons for this: first, we have just come to the conclusion that with the help of the teleportation circle, the stronghold of the Dark Forest will not be easily captured, and the exit of the underground passage on the east side of the Boulder Mountains cannot be occupied for a long time; Second, even if the lightning crows on the other side of the mountain range combined with the icy crows, it would be difficult for them to capture the stronghold of the Stone Wilderness, and they would also not be able to occupy the entrance of the underground passage on the west side of the mountain. Moreover, even if they had a stronghold, they would not be able to use the teleportation circle, and the stronghold would not have much strategic value to them. Therefore, if the countess's purpose is neither to occupy the exit on the east side of the underground passage, nor to occupy the entrance to the west side of the underground passage. ”

Cage asked, "Since it is neither an exit nor an entrance, what does the countess want to do?" Is it here to send him to death? ”

Flavi thought deeper, frowned and asked, "You just said that there are three reasons, you only said two points, but there is still a little reason to say, let's hear it." ”

Ling Dan replied: "If the third reason is said, my analysis results will also come out. Sir Flavi, assuming I didn't kill the Flame Raven, how would the Flame Raven and the Poison Raven react after they first created a siege in the town of Anivos. ”

Flavi replied, "The town of Anivos is the logistical support for the Dark Forest stronghold, and I will definitely lead the army to the rescue." Considering that the Flame Raven and the Poison Raven will attack together, I will take at least one-third to one-half of the strength of the stronghold, that is, two squadrons to one integrated Rog Brigade to fight them. ”

Ling Dan: "Okay, there is nothing wrong with your decision to divide the troops. When ensuring that there were enough troops to attack the enemy's main force, enough defensive forces were also left to ensure the safety of the stronghold and prevent the countess from diverting the stronghold. So, you now analyze what the outcome of the day's battle will be. ”

Flavi: "I must have the upper hand, and the town of Anivos is unlikely to fall so quickly." Either they choose to fight me to the end at night, and everyone fights hard; Either they will retreat for a while, stop attacking the city, go to the field and repair for the night, and then choose the right time to engage me again. ”

Ling Dan: "But they didn't continue to attack the city on the first night, and they didn't continue to attack the city the next day after the repair. You've also been on the air for a day in Anivos Town, and you've not been attacked again. Where will the main force of the poisonous crow be now? ”

Flavi suddenly felt that he had lost a point or two of strategic confidence in front of Ling Dan, who was thinking interlocking, but he still said solemnly: "I guess she will ambush us on our way back. Since we have more troops, the narrow Black Wind Pass is the best place to ambush us. ”

Ling Dan: "Your guess about the enemy's movements is reasonable, and the ambush location is also reasonable, but what is the purpose of their ambush?" ”

Flavi was already a little nervous: "I think he wants to annihilate us!" Now that I have the 'dodo claw' in my hand, I am no longer afraid of poisonous crows! ”
