Chapter 237: Legion Commander
As soon as he finished saying this, the Silver Armor General had a "bad" expression on his face, and sure enough, the adjutant general beside him roared angrily: "General, you are the commander of the Holy Sect Guardian Army, how can you say such words questioning miracles!"
From the information revealed in his words, this is the Legion Commander of the Holy Guardian - Gavin Tim.
"Yes, yes, dear old lady Caspers, please don't nag in my ear. Gavin raised his hands and made a gesture of surrender, "If you want to pray or sing hymns, you can go back to the camp, and you might as well let me go here." ”
"A blasphemous like you, how could the Holy Court make you the leader of the Holy Guardians? Caspos said indignantly, and it was evident that as a devout believer, he had long been dissatisfied with such a chief, who was often open-mouthed and had no faith in the gods.
"I beg you to say this to our Holy Pope, if he had not threatened me, if I had not been the captain of the Holy Guardian Army, I would have been imprisoned in the black prison of the Inquisition, and I would never see the light of day. After walking a long mountain road, Gavin, who was too hot, simply took off his helmet and fanned it up, revealing a head full of silver hair, reflecting a beautiful metallic luster in the sunlight, "And you have to wear this stupid armor, and if you pretend to be so forced on the battlefield, you will be shot into a hornet's nest as soon as possible, okay." ”
Caspos looked at the silver armor on Gavin's body with fire in both eyes, this armor is not just for the sake of beauty, it is mixed with Mithril that can only be mined in the underground world, and then sent to the Silver Moon Forest in the south, created by the secret methods of the elves, it has a strong resistance to all kinds of spells, plus the precious magic circle attached to it, it is simply a human-shaped fortress after wearing it, how can it be shot into a hornet's nest.
This Holy Blessing armor can be said to be a treasure that all warriors dream of, and it is also thanks to Gavin that he treats it so carelessly, not only does not clean and maintain, but is stained with all kinds of stains and dirt, Caspos is heartbroken when he sees it on the side, if other warriors know, he has to run over and fight with Gavin.
"If the general doesn't want to, he can change into other armor instead of wearing it all day and dangling around on his body. Kaspos said.
"Haha, I'm just talking about it casually, it's just to let the soldiers see it, so that they can know that the commander is also fighting with them, and everyone has a backbone in their hearts. Gavin hurriedly snorted, his adjutant is good at everything, but he is too serious, and his speech is very boring, in order to prevent him from nagging again, Gavin quickly changed the topic: "How is the defense line built?"
Talking about business, Caspos's originally square face became even more flat, "According to the previous canon, the front and rear three layers of defense have been roughly completed, every 100 meters, beacon towers and sentry posts have been built, and a barrier that can accommodate 500 people has been built in a mile, but the amount of trench excavation is too large, and there are still a few sections that have not been completed." ”
"No, I can't. Gavin shook his head, "Everything else can be put down, but this trench must be dug well, and not only to be completed, but also to dig deep and deep, to have oblique sides, on the battlefield everyone can't hide in the barrier, what can really protect everyone is these trenches." ”
Speaking of war preparations, his tone was much more serious, and there was no longer the previous frivolity, "This is all a bloody lesson from the past, in the face of the powerful magic of the dark elves, only these trenches can give the soldiers a place to hide, and can reduce casualties." ”
"But even if there are trenches, it is useless, if the dark elves use large-scale war magic, these trenches will become dead coffins, and the burial place of the warriors will only consume the spiritual power of the dark elves. Gavin said with a little sadness.
"Or because we are on the defensive, we have to defend passively, so that the dark elves can calmly position and use magic, and if the field can avoid it, the situation is much better. ", added Caspos.
"No way, who called these mountains the home of the dark elves. Gavin looked at the endless rugged mountains in front of him, and said helplessly: "They have their backs to the mountains, and if the war is slightly unfavorable, they can retreat into the mountains to prevent greater losses." And the hateful thing is that we can't enter the mountains to pursue and expand our advantage. If we have the upper hand, the two sides will pull back and forth, forming a tug-of-war, and once we have a slight disadvantage, the dark elves will attack us without any scruples, you must know that we have no strategic depth, and behind us are the common people of the north, so we must not abandon them. ”
"Yes, this battle is really embarrassing. Caspos agreed, but he quickly said excitedly: "But with the blessing of the gods, these heretics of the dark elves are not pleasing after all, and our ancestors can resist the invasion of the dark elves, and of course we can." ”
Looking at Caspos, whose confidence was high, Gavin was also a little helpless, his lieutenant was undoubtedly a very good soldier, only one thing was because he firmly believed in the blessing of the gods, so his estimate of the battle situation was always unusually optimistic. For Gavin, he preferred to hold his fate in his own hands rather than entrust it to the ethereal god.
"But it's useless for us to discuss more here, after all, the military strength of our Holy Sect Guardian Army is not enough, and the protagonist of this battle is still the army in the north, I think the first general of the empire must have been completely prepared. Gavin said.
The two were discussing when a cavalry rider arrived in the distance, "Report!" The man was still halfway there, and the voice of the herald had already been heard.
Gavin and Caspos glanced at each other, the letter from the Sanctuary, what is the matter so urgent? In just a few moments, the herald had already arrived in front of Gavin and handed over the letter sealed with the special fire seal of the Holy Religion to Gavin.
"What's the matter?", asked Caspos eagerly, and he had no scruples about knowing that it was not a secret to convey the message in this way of communicating in the army.
"Looks like it's going to be handed over to you, Caspos. Gavin, who read the letter, said.
