Chapter 583: A Strange Silence
The whole day soon slipped away from everyone's eyes.
The red sun that illuminated the entire fortress finally slowly sank in the direction of the abyss, and at the same time took away most of the light.
So on the top of the fortress, the bright lanterns used for lighting were also standing among the arrow stacks, continuing to keep a firm watch on the elven army in the distance.
And as the night fell, Su Mu and Lu Xi, who were the strongest people here, naturally could no longer continue to enjoy the gentleness of being alone.
Now they have returned to the tower, serving as a source of confidence for all.
As for the other academy students, they were now arranged by Su Mu to be among the city defense forces, providing magical support for each section of the city tower.
After a long day of peace, the fortress in the darkness of the night was obviously solemn again.
After all, for the Blood Moon Elves from the Abyss, night is undoubtedly their best protective color...... And launching an attack in the dark is a more reasonable way to attack!
......
"What do you think?"
Just like Kaz's decisive attitude towards Su Mu, when Su Mu returned to Kaz's side again, he undoubtedly did not make unnecessary politeness, and asked Kaz's opinion very bluntly.
As for Su Mu's question, Kaz is naturally as knowledgeable as ever:
"Judging from the previous behavior, the commander of the elven army is undoubtedly a very strategic person. Therefore, given the situation between the two armies at this time, he probably would not have chosen to launch an attack in the first half of the night at all. ”
"After all, after a long day of recuperation, we obviously have enough motivation to launch a second attack at the end of the night, which is obviously not the best option. ”
"And if I'm not mistaken, they won't do anything in the first half of the night, but once the night is halfway over, and our defenders are struggling...... The real attack of the elven army will be launched in our most exhausting condition. ”
I have to say that Kaz's judgment of the movements of the elven army undoubtedly coincides with Su Mu again.
Today's Su Mu obviously has the same guess.
Therefore, for such a situation, Su Mu obviously made a response to it as soon as possible.
Even at this moment, Su Mu had already confirmed to Kaz:
"If you can, try to keep the defenders in place...... As for the dynamics of the elven army, our academy can naturally monitor it at all times. ”
"In any case, we must ensure that we are not overwhelmed by the intimidation of the elven army, and we must ensure that every warrior in charge of the garrison can participate in the battle in full force. ”
Regarding Su Mu's explanation, Kaz certainly had no reason to refuse.
After all, compared to the sentry guards who relied on their eyes to monitor the enemy's movements, it was obviously Su Mu and his party, who were spellcasters, who were able to capture the movements of the elven army more clearly.
Therefore, one by one, the orders to recuperate in place were quickly spread to every corner of the fortress.
Although the warriors in the entire fortress are all on alert.
But as long as the elven army does not make any changes, all the defenders of the Federation side can rest as peacefully as possible.
And once the second impact of the elven army, it really broke out in the depths of the night.
The garrison soldiers in their heyday will obviously face the next bitter battle in the best state.
......
Time was still moving unhurriedly, with the scarlet blood moon on the horizon, walking towards the center of the night little by little.
In the middle of the night, it finally landed on the border fortress as promised.
However, at this moment, even though the night was so deep, the entire elven army several miles away still seemed extremely quiet.
Even in the open area where the two armies confronted each other, those wild animals who tried to go out to forage for food did not seem to feel the oppression in the air at all.
Now it is extremely presumptuous, chasing and frolicking directly in the crimson moonlight.
"It's not normal!"
A very simple judgment quickly fell from Katz's mouth.
Kaz apparently couldn't comprehend the silence the elven army had shown so far.
After all, for the elven army, the only chance they had to tear through the border fortress was before the four major legions really came to their aid.
The more time is wasted, the greater the risks become.
"Unless, the commander of the elven army, who has also guessed our strategy, has long understood that the second half of the night is not the weak hour of the fortress. ”
"Now he ...... It's just that the mental distress that continues to await us is there!"
There is no doubt that Kaz, who is the commander of the fortress, once again guessed the true meaning of the other party's actions at this time.
Regarding the return of Su Mu and others, the other party obviously did not fail to consider.
Therefore, in the second half of the night, when the attack should have been launched, the other party still maintained complete silence, not only did not make the slightest movement, but even seemed to completely ignore the task they were carrying.
Calm and secure...... It's like they're just migrating here to set up camp, and they don't have the intention of attacking again.
"It seems that the other party did anticipate our response, so they gave up the second half of the night again, and continued to wait for a more unpredictable time. ”
"Although we are now, it is true that because of the previous rest policy, the other party did not dare to act rashly. But if this continues, under the premise that the other party has never really attacked, the morale of the soldiers defending the city will slowly decline...... After all, determination and will are things that decline again and again. ”
That is to say...... The current commander of the elven army, he is actually not waiting for our fatigue at all, but waiting for the morale of the defenders of the city to decrease. As long as the morale is successfully lowered to a certain freezing point, even if the warriors are all recharged, there will still be the weakest moments. ”
I have to say that this insidious consideration of the elven commander Yakamoan really stabbed the core weakness of the garrison warriors.
After all, such an ethereal thing as "morale" cannot be controlled by reason alone.
Even Su Mu and Kaz had actually successfully guessed each other's plans.
But in this situation, relying on this intellectual judgment alone, it is undoubtedly completely unable to change the subtle low morale.
"Unless ......"
In an instant, Su Mu suddenly remembered something, and suddenly looked at the still silent elf army.
And then he was extraordinarily crazy and wanton, saying something extremely daring:
"Unless there is some kind of stronger stimulus, it will still keep all the defenders in high spirits, so that they will not sink into the long wait. ”
"Otherwise...... No one can stop the other's scheme!"
