Chapter 443: The Battle Situation
Next to a dead tree by the side of the road, Meen sat on a large rock and continued to tease the warhorse tethered here. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
It was already afternoon, and it had been some time since Mien had left the battlefield.
From time to time, a diminutive female mercenary appeared on the road.
Play with the simple knife in your hand, all the way.
"I thought you were all back. ”
Meen glanced up at the half-blood ranger with blood stains on his body, smiled and said, "How's the matter going over there?"
Hilda shrugged and put the knife away, "It's going well, it's just two new black-robed mystics, if we go a little later, poor Bianca will probably be dead." ”
"Those greedy wild mages are ruthless. ”
Handing a handful of reins to Hilda, Minn turned on his horse, "It's going well, let's go back." ”
Hilda also rolled over to the horse, looked at Mine, and said, "Don't you want to go and see that kid with facial paralysis?
Mien looked just ahead, and said lightly, "It used to be, but now it isn't. ”
The horse's hooves flew and trampled on countless dusts.
...
And on the frontal battlefield located in the mountains, the 300,000 troops that Enomosen drew to block the attack took advantage of the terrain, and grandma's choked the route of the northern army's advance.
Inside a makeshift military tent.
Samiyah and the commanders were all solemn at this time.
Although the terrain here is not steep, it is not suitable for cavalry combat, and the two passes defended by Enomosen are also easy to defend and difficult to attack.
Even with a large number of troops, it will be difficult for the coalition forces to take over.
The three legions besieged in front had already been abandoned by them at this time.
Being able to delay Enomosen for so long, their strategic value has reached the desired goal.
Moreover, His Royal Highness the Prince also had a gray-clothed sword saint to come to the rescue.
Even if the one in the palace couldn't resist coming to the front to determine the situation now, at least they didn't have to worry too much about Hogg's safety.
With that peerless murderer here, no one can threaten His Royal Highness.
The war reached a stalemate, and both sides were reluctant to send large numbers of troops for attrition.
Instead, they all set their sights on the 'Golden Corridor' to the east, where the terrain is long and narrow, and whoever can get the first chance over there will activate the entire battle situation!
"Deputy Chief Rhodes has been stationed there for so long, why can't he look for an opportunity to open the passage over there? I think with the strength of the Holy Knights, it would be difficult for anyone to stop it. ”
A commander stood at the conference table, pointing a wooden pole to Rhodes' current location on the map, his tone skeptical.
Sameer glanced at the young nobleman, who had obviously been sent to gild, and didn't even bother to explain, and turned his gaze to Palino, "You just proposed that we deliberately defeat and then distance ourselves from them, so as to lure the army of Ainomosen out from behind those passes... But isn't the price to pay for that? ”
Being ignored, the young nobleman was obviously a little embarrassed standing at the conference table, but any of the people here were big people he couldn't afford to mess with, and he could only cough dryly to relieve his embarrassment.
"If we stick here, this war will not lead to anything until winter, and the Pope has promised to assassinate the local commander until today, and if we don't seek a turnaround, we will suffer sooner or later." ”
Pausing slightly, "Enomosen has his back against Albizi, and there are countless grains waiting for them to consume in the south, but we can't afford to consume them." ”
Although Palino's words somewhat destroyed his own prestige and increased the morale of others.
But it's also a fact.
In addition to the original Roland people's territory, the output of other places in the whole north has always been low, and even the whole north is not very suitable for growing grain.
An army of 300,000 people consumes an astronomical amount of grain and grass every day!
Samiyah was silent for a while, "Your Excellency Pallino, an assassination operation against the enemy's top brass is not a simple matter to talk about, besides, the Pope has arranged it a long time ago, and it is estimated that it will soon be effective, so let's wait for a while." ”
It's just that compared to the assassination, Samiyah is thinking about when the Albizi family will start to act.
If the assassination can only shake the morale of Enomosen's army and cannot hurt his bones, then once Albizi strikes a blow, it will cut off the money input of the Scorching Sun royal family.
Then there will definitely be big problems with the corps at the front!
It's never too late to strike.
It's just that she can only think about these things in her heart, this kind of top-secret thing, the people who know the truth in the entire north can count it on one hand!
...
It's still the Golden Corridor.
This passage sandwiched between the mountains was not even enough for twenty knights to move side by side.
The steep, boulder-strewn heights of the neighborhood are full of natural ambush sites.
Even Rhodes himself sent quite a few men to ambush in the nearby mountains.
At this time, the two sides of the confrontation can be said to be all idle and panicked!
At first, there would be a small army to provoke, but after losing a dozen knights, hundreds of soldiers, and even seriously wounding a silver knight in Chloe's hands, he finally died down.
The two sides are as if they had agreed in advance,
Every day, hundreds of people dig deep trenches outside and lay horse-repellent piles.
After so many days, the 500-meter buffer zone of the confrontation between the two sides is covered with trenches five or six meters deep, and the horse-repelling piles are laid in layers.
Even this war has turned into a digging contest for them!
The commanders on both sides know the importance of this corridor to the whole war, and they don't give up an inch of land, and if you don't let me pass, well, I won't let you come either.
Standing on the castle tower, Rhodes looked at the other side, yawning boredly, and his heart had even begun to miss the feeling of galloping on the battlefield.
But here, the trenches are so wide that they can't even get their own army through!
It can be said that the two sides have fallen into an endless loop.
Even if they sent troops to the mountains, both sides kept their hands on it, and after several attempts, each side dropped a few hundred corpses and then gave up.
At this time, Chloe was naked, and her body was covered with hideous scars.
Engage several knights in the camp and hone your martial arts.
Another boring day.
But just as Rhodes was about to go down, four or five people in red robes walked out of the camp over there.
Because of the distance, Rod couldn't see it very clearly, but there was no doubt that these people were coming this way.
He raised his eyebrows, turned around and shouted, "Chloe, you kid come over to me, maybe you have another job to do!"
