Chapter Twenty-Five: The Five Thousand Mark The enemy will be saved

Tired and afraid of the battlefield, Edward has unbelievably subdued a large number of Dark Council troops in the past two days. The large amount of ore actually made Edward's space ring unable to fit.

During this time, Edward also defeated the pursuit team sent by a small town controlled by the Dark Council nearby, which made Edward a dominant family in this vicinity, and his prestige was even stronger.

A large number of Dark Council forces surrendered, leaving Edward's forces stronger than ever.

Includes nearly three squadrons of over 1,500 Minotaur troops, three squadrons of Dark Sentinels, three squadrons of Dark Knights, two squadrons of Dark Rangers, two squadrons of Stalkers, one squadron of Dark Assassins, and one squadron of Dark Mages.

Coupled with the slave corps, Edward's gathered forces directly exceeded the 5,000 mark.

Among them, Edward received a number of surprises from among the slaves.

In addition to the Minotaurs, Medusa, and Sorcerers of the Sorcerer Alliance, there are also strong men such as the Dark Orc Berserker, the Rat-Man Assassin, and the Poison-Eyed Lord.

As for why these warlike races and high-ranking professionals were brought here as captives, Edward thought it was the Dark Council that was expanding too quickly.

It was too dangerous to keep a large number of opponents in a newly conquered territory, so they were all transported to the Dark Elf territory and sold to the Dark Elves.

And the dark elves need to wage a big war, so they don't have time to train these slaves, so they are sent to the mines to do hard labor, and by the way, they will wear down their will.

It's just that it's all cheaper now than Edward.

The addition of these powerhouses, coupled with the huge number of troops under his control, directly made Edward's strength comparable to that of some ordinary medium-sized clans, even if one side was divided into a dungeon master, it would be no problem.

Of course, because of the lack of hero-level powerhouses, it is a big question whether it can last.

Therefore, Edward immediately decided to lead a large army to attack a heroic prison established by the Dark Council based on the information he received.

At the same time, the Dark Council is furious at the troublesome army of the undead.

The Dark Council immediately sent a heroic powerhouse to lead a force of 1,000 people to encircle and suppress Edward.

The army of the Dark Council is menacing, but because it needs to mobilize troops from another place, it is still detected by the spies sent by Edward, after all, an army of 1,000 people is not so easy to hide.

At the same time, Edward also diverted his own forces and attacked the Hero's Prison.

"The scouts of the dark elves are definitely not so easy to mess with, if we can't deal with the pursuers of the Dark Council behind us, then let alone attack the Heroes Prison, I'm afraid that we will be attacked from front to back at that time, and then we will have to be wiped out." Auburn, the dog-headed military advisor, analyzed.

"Then go back and fight them, I don't believe that there are so many of us, he can beat so many of us with a heroic class." A big Minotaur said.

In fact, although the hero class is said to have the ability to influence a battle, it is also determined by the troops in his hands.

In the world of Yashan, the hero professional does not mean that one person can take out an army, that is a wrong understanding.

Relatively speaking, there is a high probability that the legendary powerhouse will take out a standard legion on his own.

(The standard legion is usually 5,000 men, and then it must be arranged in a pyramid shape according to the number of units from level 1 to 5, and the hero class is usually the clan commander)

In addition to being experienced and more skilled, the hero class in Yashan has more skills.

The main thing is the ability to comprehend the aura.

Therefore, a hero class is likely to be beaten to death in the face of multiple high-level professionals, after all, it doesn't have much effect if you open a halo for yourself, and it doubles the combat power of the sky.

But there are four or five people on the other side, and two fists are hard to beat four hands, and you are still dead.

However, this time, the heroic powerhouse of the Dark Council did not come alone, but led a team of 1,000 people, so the usefulness of the heroic professional is great.

Even if the aura can only increase one-tenth of its strength, it will be difficult for Edward's side to fight, after all, most of the five thousand people on this side are water-infused slave legions.

The troops sent by the other party are definitely the elite troops of the Dark Council.

In addition, most of the leaders of the hero profession are experts in battle formations.

Although Edward has improved a lot of command skills through many battles during this time, he is still much worse than other heroes, and he will definitely be easily killed by others when he fights.

So now the top priority is to save the heroes who are trapped in the Hero Prison, and it will be better to fight when there are heroes on their side.

But if you don't solve this pursuit force, you can't concentrate on taking the Hero's Prison, and it seems to be stuck in an endless loop.

After carefully reviewing all the information, Edward suddenly had a flash of inspiration.

"Hehe, since we can't fight them, can't we just lure them away?" Edward said in his chest.

As soon as everyone heard that Edward had an idea, they all sat down and listened carefully to Edward's analysis.

"Here, and here, is the bread of the Dark Council. The Dark Council is not like the undead, capable of not eating or drinking. Therefore, if we attack their food delivery team, we will definitely be able to attract the attention of this pursuing force. Edward smiled wickedly.

The so-called attacking the enemy must be saved, encircling Wei and saving Zhao are all meanings, and the strategy of the ancestors can be described as a hundred tried.

"Lord Edward's plan is good, Lord Edward is wise." Auburn immediately patted the sycophants, of course, there are many other dungeon backgrounds who can pat the sycophants.

"Okay, let's do it according to this plan." Edward smiled slightly, and then ordered: "With Freery as the master, Alexander, and Kaz, the three of you lead all the skeleton minotaurs and ghouls to form a feint attack team, responsible for harassing the opponent's grain channel, and seeing the opportunity to wantonly pollute the opponent's grain." ”

"Yes!" Among the three undead officers, Alexander has the highest military literacy, and the ghoul led by Kaz is the sharpest, but the two have contradictions and are difficult to cooperate.

Therefore, it is necessary to make Lavery the supreme commander, and Lavery is level-headed and the most powerful of several subordinates, Alexander and Kaz should be able to listen to Lavery even if they disobey each other.

"Also, Captain Morrigan, the Kaghra Warriors, you lead a large group of Minotaurs, a group of Minotaur warriors, a squadron of Dark Rangers, and a squadron of Stalkers in another location. You'd better keep in touch with each other, draw this pursuing force, and wait for our main force to break through the Hero's Prison. Edward carefully admonished.

"This time your two troops are very dangerous, I hope you can calmly analyze the situation, don't covet the opportunity in front of you, and ensure your own safety." Edward said, having to lament that his men really lacked enough talent.

Although the undead subordinates such as Lavery and Kaz can be trusted 100%, they are all junior professionals, and their strength is obviously low in increasingly high-end battles.

Morrigan, the leader of the remaining Stalkers, and Karguera, the best of the Minotaurs, are the only two people who can be used with confidence.

Although there are many other high-level professionals in the dungeon who surrendered, including the first lizard knight captain Turan, Edward could not be reassured.

And these two forces can't be combined yet, after all, there is a big gap between the undead and the living.

If Lively and the others were to lead the dungeon troops, Edward was afraid that they would deliberately kill the dungeon troops, so that they could expand their undead troops.

Even if the Lively couple can take care of the overall situation, it will definitely be difficult to control the dungeon troops.

And if the living beings are allowed to dominate the undead, it is not something that the elites of the undead legion like Lavery can accept.

It would not be possible if the two forces were combined, because this would inevitably lead to a division of command, which would lead to the destruction of the troops, such as the loss of fighters.

So it's better to separate the two troops, and even if one army is destroyed, the other can play a role.

As for the problem of insufficient troops, Edward mainly let them harass rather than attack, so as long as the troops are not stormed or ambushed, it is more than enough.
