At this time, Gutsian and his generals were standing on a hill, looking out at the woods of Hesse in the north, and on the slopes around him, there were huge roots left by felling trees everywhere, and at the foot of the hill, countless requisitioned men and some soldiers were working hard with logging tools, and the felled trees were directly dragged to the rear along the central road with cattle, which was not like a battlefield, but more like a busy construction site.

"Elder Knight, after all, the elven clan has been inherited for hundreds of thousands of years, and there are a large number of clansmen, even if they leave the protection of the holy relics, the power of the elven army cannot be underestimated, we are still cautious. ”

The pioneer officer Duwak knew that Gutsian was bent on speed, and his suggestion was undoubtedly contrary to Gutsian's wishes, but he still felt that he should voice his worries, and as for Gutsianken's refusal to take it, it was not up to him to control.

"If the elven army wants to attack us, just come, the 'God of War' heavy infantry behind me is waiting for them to come and move their muscles. ”

Gutsien waved his finger behind him, where there were miles of military camps, nearly 30,000 officers and soldiers from the Templar Order's Aegis of War Legion, heavily guarded, ready to respond to enemy provocations. In this military operation, the impact of the cavalry could not play a role, so the Holy See sent the most defensive God of War Shield Heavy Infantry Legion, ready to step by step, the elves were slowly strangled, considering that the elves did not have heavy cavalry, and they rarely used war equipment, if they wanted to break through the defensive formation composed of these heavy infantry, it was really not so easy.

Gutsien divided the Aegis of War into two parts, one of about 10,000 men stationed at the edge of the woods, their role was mainly to protect the people who cut down the forest, equipped with trebuchets and heavy crossbows, which could suppress the elven archers, magicians and Pegasus knights hidden in the trees, and the other part of 20,000 people stationed at a distance from the logging area, and they would be the main force to defend against the onslaught of the elven army.

Regardless of whether the elves adopt harassment tactics or a head-on decisive battle, Gutesian is fully prepared, so he is now full of confidence, the elven army is not killed, if it is killed, the heavy infantry in the passage can quickly form a defensive formation, block the elven army lacking heavy cavalry, and wait for backup, the main force stationed outside the woods will immediately pounce, although the elven army is not weak, but it has always been good at flexibility and mobility, and is not good at this kind of positional battle, especially when their opponent is the Holy See heavy infantry regiment that is the best at positional defense, they have no chance of winning。

Duwack's fear of Gutesian's answer was entirely out of a cautious instinct, and he couldn't produce any evidence, so he couldn't refute it, at least for now, Gutsien's arrangement was foolproof, unless the elves' relics were resurrected, the treemen were driven by the forest guardian magic to launch a devastating attack on them, and the heavy infantry's shields were not much stronger than broken planks under the heavy blows of the powerful treemen.

But is it possible for the elven relics to be resurrected? No, this was already said by Tis Hepburn before the battle, so Gutsian's self-confidence was not unreasonable.

I hope I'm just worrying about it, Duwak didn't say much, but prayed silently in his heart.

Compared to the smooth attack on the Elven Forest by the Papal States army and civilians led by Gutesian, the Higg army to the west of the Elven Forest did not advance at such a satisfactory rate. First of all, the Higg military is hesitant about the Holy See's idea of wanting to capture the elven kingdom, the elven forest has been standing in the central and eastern part of the continent since ancient times, this is a land with divine power, any invader will be wiped out by the creatures growing on this land, swallowed up, no one has ever beaten his idea and can retreat, even in the history books, that is, the orcs launched a war to attack the elven forest, but in the end they also suffered and returned.

And at the beginning of this war against the elves, the Higg Emperor and the military bosses have been kept in the dark, and the Holy See fooled them into gathering forces in order to eliminate the Bols bandits hiding in the Great Rift Valley of the Demon Dragon in one fell swoop, for which the Higg military department has also specially formulated various strategies and tactics, and they even sent messengers to Marin City to ask Trorens stationed in Marin City for advice, of course, ostensibly to ask Old Trorence, but actually Moses Trorens. The messenger quickly rushed back to the military headquarters with the reply of old Trorence, and the military bigwigs opened the old Trorense's reply and were surprised to find that there were no specific strategic and tactical suggestions on it, and some were just two sentences:

"The Bols bandits are not a problem, and you don't need to make such a big deal to deal with them. The Holy See is afraid that all the plans are ordered, and the military department is asked to deal with them carefully. ”

However, what other intentions the Holy See had, the letter did not say, although Moses Trorense used his army like a god, he was not the great elder of the elven race, he could not predict the future, and he would never have dreamed of the Holy See's actions against the elves.

The military bigwigs who had read the reminders on the letters from the Trorens father and son became more cautious, although Cardinal Raphael patted his chest at the court meeting and assured the Higg monarchs that the divine power that guarded the elven forest had disappeared, but when asked how the divine power disappeared, Raphael smiled and said nothing, but the Higg military department still specially sent General Geraint, who was practical and cautious in his military style, as the commander-in-chief of this military operation, and secretly gave him instructions:

In this operation, the Hig military would rather seek no fault than merit, and everything is based on the premise of preserving strength.

With the order of the military department, General Geraint, who had no good impression of the Holy See, had the bottom in his heart, he rushed to Lua City with his own soldiers to take over the baton, and then it was a grind, and finally the army drove to the edge of the elven forest, and practiced in place, perfunctory for the military supervision group sent by the Holy See, delaying the attack on the elven forest for various reasons, and finally the head of the supervision group, Stephen, could only follow Geraint's ass every day to urge, and was forced to be helpless, Geraint could only arrange the army to cover the recruited people to start marching, but this group of people just arrived at the edge of the elven forest and encountered the shooting of the elven archers hidden behind the trees, facing the attack, The recruited people scattered in a hurry, and even the army behind turned around and ran, and the elven archers behind were so stunned that they forgot to make up for the two arrows. Annoyed by the sight, the Templar Stephen demanded severe punishment for the officers and soldiers who led the retreat, but Geraint used various excuses to obstruct him.

After several times, Stephen saw through it, Geraint obviously didn't want to attack the Elven Forest, and he couldn't turn his face with Geraint, so he could only fly from the battlefield to Triumph City in person on a griffin to find Cardinal Raphael to "administer justice" for him.
