"Let's start debriefing. ”

Luo Di looked at the staff officer in military uniform in front of him, nodded and motioned for the other party to start reporting.

“... According to the information received so far, the first beacon fire was transmitted from the 'Lundaw Watchtower' in the Nehemian steppe, and the beacon fire was then relayed and observed at the border intelligence station..."

Three and a half hours have passed since the beacon was lit, and in terms of the speed of information transmission, the intelligence department established by Luo Di can already be proud of all the national military organizations on the continent, but he does not look proud at all, but stares at the staff officer with a frown, waiting for the following.

"After the Lundaw watchtower was fired, the Als Fortress quickly organized a cavalry team to rush to support, and they had just confirmed that the watchtower had been attacked and that no sentries had survived..."

When these words fell, the expressions of the cabinet members were stiff.

The Karen Kingdom did not set up too many troops in the interior of the Nahemian steppe, but only established fifteen simple guard tower strongholds in order to guard the movement of the orcs, because at present, the kingdom did not regard the orcs who fled as any great enemy, so it did not invest too much money here, and even the guard tower deep into the grassland had not had time to change the communication array, and could only use the most primitive beacon fire to transmit the alarm.

At this time, they didn't expect that those orcs would really suddenly burst out and attack the watchtower.

But it stands to reason... The sentry has a very wide field of vision on the watchtower, and if you detect the situation in advance, you will have plenty of time to escape on horseback even if you encounter an attack by wolf cavalry.

"According to the analysis of the front line at the scene, after the enemy appeared, the soldiers of the watchtower should have realized that they could not resist, and immediately rode away after lighting the beacon fire, but they were chased by the enemy after only running out for more than 300 meters... In the end, only the bodies of the three orcs who were killed were left at the scene. ”

The staff officer looked down at the paper in his hand and continued: "Judging from the traces at the scene, the other party should be an orc force of more than a hundred people, and there are still about ten wolf cavalry - but..."

He paused, "However, according to the reports of the front-line soldiers, they think that the size of the wolf is completely different from what they remember, and the depth and size of the footprints are much larger than that of a normal size of the wolf. And the enemy ..."

Seeing that the staff officer was a little speechless, Luo Di raised his eyebrows: "What's the matter?" ”

"The enemy, having killed the sentinels, ate them on the spot, on the spot. ”

This sentence made the cabinet present collectively look ugly.

Although the war is cruel, they also know the atrocities of the orcs - when the middle of the kingdom was eaten by the orcs before, tens of thousands of civilians died, but the slaughter is slaughtered, and the situation of eating people on the spot is obviously beyond some bottom lines...

This does not mean that they are simply brutal, but that they have completely lost the characteristics of intelligent creatures, and I am afraid that they have become irrational monsters.

"What about the rest?"

"Prime Minister, that's all the information we've been delivering so far, and the follow-up should still be in the process of being collected..."

"Stay updated at any time and report directly to you if there is new news. ”

But as soon as Roddy finished speaking, someone knocked on the door, and new news came: the port in the southern part of the kingdom had been attacked by mutant fishmen!

"There was a mutated fish-man attack near the dock, but because of the early warning, the defense forces on the shore responded effectively, and the fish-men who tried to attack the shore were quickly wiped out - but several other fishing villages near the coastline have suffered similar attacks, and black smoke can be seen rising, I'm afraid..."

While the news is being delivered quickly enough, the speed at which soldiers can support is limited - there are no roads in the kingdom at the moment, and many remote areas may be unknown if they are attacked.

Rodi's troops are deployed near the port where the aircraft carrier is being built, and even if they know which fishing villages have been attacked, it is not realistic to rush along the coastline to support them...

In other words, the kingdom is too large to be attacked in many places.

"First of all, ensure the safety of the vicinity of the port, immediately declare a state of emergency in the kingdom, go and inform Sodrore and all the staff officers of the army, air force, and navy, and come over for a meeting in an hour. ”

Sodrol had just returned from Eskar half a month ago, and should be on vacation now. But now this news is enough to bring everyone's vacation to an end - not only Sodrore, but all the research departments, individual labs, and even factories in the whole of Holier will receive a similar notice by the evening...

In other words, from now on, the purpose of existence in all these places has turned to one thing: war.

"By the way, notify all the newspapers and prepare for the next release. The wartime measures for the control of public opinion have been emphasized before, and now anyone who does not comply with them will be immediately dismissed from their posts and investigated. ”

Roddy knew there would be such a day, but he didn't expect the enemy to attack from both sides at the same time - the number of orcs was limited, and he didn't think it would cause too much damage, but the "fishmen" were a big problem: no one knew how many fishmen in the sea were infected by demons, and it wouldn't be a good thing if there was another landing like the "Ancient Behemoth" like Rassiman did.

"Da-da-"

There was a knock on the door of the conference hall, and Luo Di directly let people in: "Report immediately, no need to salute." ”

"It's... Prime Minister, I have just received news from the eastern border of the kingdom that the magic tower with a mage has suddenly exploded, and there is a situation where infected beasts are attacking nearby villages..."

"More blooms?"

Roddy turned his head to look at the map of the Karen Kingdom that had been propped up next to him, and quickly marked the locations of these attacks that had just been reported, and found that there were attacks in the northwest, south, and east.

The nobles of the cabinet were a little panicked, because at first glance the enemy was menacing, as if the kingdom of Karen was surrounded at once.

After all, strategically speaking, it would be foolish to spread their forces out of all directions to attack unless they are confident enough or ensure that they have an absolute superiority in their forces.

After all, in the eyes of politicians, war is not an end, but a means, and it is enough to concentrate superior forces to make the enemy compromise and achieve his own political goals.

But the current enemy does not seem to be acting according to their logical thinking at all, and this "sudden incident" is coming so quickly that it is not clear what the other side is going to do.

"We still know too little about the fishmen, could the enemy's main force come from the sea?"

"Isn't there something about the fish-people over there, Lasiman has some research on them, and we can ask for technical help from there..."

"Da-da-"

There was another knock on the door.

"Your Excellency, there has been news from Rasiman and the country of Eskar that the shoreline has been attacked by fishmen!"
