Hearing the report of the charcoal fire, a sneer appeared on Duke's face, the ice demon's counterattack has always been in his preparation, because he wants to completely hurt the ice demon, so that they will not dare to attack the storm castle wantonly this winter or even in the future, then this main army duel is doomed to a battle.

Otherwise, this kind of petty fight in a village of more than 100 people did not reach the stage of breaking the muscles and bones for the Ice Demon, and it did not achieve its strategic purpose for the Storm Army.

"Lord Lord, since the Ice Demons have begun to assemble, I hope you will evacuate the Monster Valley and return to Storm Castle. ”

Alan immediately said to Duke that for the Storm Army and even for Storm Castle, the Lord Talent is the most important thing. As long as the Lord is still around, the Storm Army will be able to form and will never be defeated!

"Go back?"

Duke replied with a smile, and then said with a firm face: "I didn't plan to go back like this this time when I came out, the ice demon has attacked Storm Castle so many times, and I've seen enough of that contemptuous look every time." Today there is finally a powerful storm army, and I want Anubir to feel what it is like to have this kind of soldier under the city!"

Duke said such a sentence with great fanfare, although objectively speaking, the Storm Army is not strong, and even if the Ice Demon really concentrates all his forces to fight a decisive battle, then the current main army of 7,500 soldiers may not be able to defeat the Ice Demon.

But today's Storm Army is already the most powerful Storm Army in the history of Storm Castle, and retreat and weakness will wear down the courage of the warriors, which is why there is a saying that offense is the best defense. Because only by attacking will the soldiers gain a psychological advantage, so that they dare to take the initiative to fight against the ice demon!

Moreover, the blow to the Ice Demon Village during this period of time has also made the Storm Army soldiers understand that the Ice Demon is not invincible. Unless it is a super magic attack such as a forbidden spell, or a strong personal force above the Great Swordsman, otherwise in the face of a large-scale war, the personal strength is so small, the heavy shield and the spear are lined up, and the scattered formation of the ice demon that can be fought has no power to fight back!

Even if it is a forbidden spell, Duke believes that with the technological development of the Storm Army, or the transformation of magic resistance, as long as the magic damage is canceled to the deadly level, it can defeat super warriors of the level of Magister and Juggernaut. Because this is not a high demon world controlled by God, discipline and a strong army can still decide everything!

In the face of Duke's extremely confident look, although Alan was still very worried in his heart, he couldn't say anything more. After all, Duke's existence has a great encouraging effect on the Storm Army, and the lords are all on the battlefield, and the effect of fighting side by side is beyond any slogan.

Of course, this is the same as the ancient emperor's personal expedition, once Duke is in any danger or even killed, then the entire storm army will collapse in an instant, and the consequences will be extremely serious.

"Charcoal, deliver my order to let Hammer lead the Storm Dwarven Army to follow up and prepare for a decisive battle. At the same time, your cavalry regiment has also begun to assemble on a small scale, once the main force of the ice demon is determined, all members will be assembled, and only when the cavalry is on a large scale can it be regarded as a real cavalry!"

After saying this, Duke suddenly remembered something, so he continued: "And send someone to Storm Castle to inform Gandalf or Hera, and let them come to the front line as soon as possible, just say it's my order!"

"I understand, my lord!"

After receiving the order, Charcoal immediately conveyed Duke's order to the war sheep sentry behind him.

After the order was delivered, Duke began to have an irrepressible excitement in his heart. If Anubir really made up his mind to die, then the Storm Army would face more than 10,000 Ice Demons, as well as an unknown number of Hell Ghouls. You must know that the Ice Demon can fight ten before, even in the latest Storm Castle defensive battle, the Ice Demon has a big advantage.

However, this advantage is constantly shrinking outside of the Storm Army's equipment and formation. Even in the recent battle of the Ice Demons, seriously speaking, the casualty ratio between the two sides is actually almost 1 to 1, but the Storm Army occupies a great defensive advantage.

Now that Duke has given up his greatest defensive advantage, and may have to face the ice demons who still have the advantage in numbers, will he be able to win? If he wins, he will probably win at least the whole winter, and if he loses, Storm Castle will almost return to the pre-liberation period. It was the pressure of this huge cost that made Duke feel excited and apprehensive.

As the army of the Ice Demon began to assemble, the Storm Dwarf Army also gathered with the First Army of the Storm, more than 7,500 heavily armed warriors, this is the most powerful combat force of the Storm Army. On the other hand, the War Sheep Knights also gave up the scattered scout reconnaissance, except for a small number of knights who were still tracking the main position of the Ice Demon, other War Sheep Knights also began to assemble, and 1,05 heavy cavalry were also waiting for them.

Even for this big battle, all the 5,000 people of the logistics army were dispatched, but compared to the main army, they didn't even have the most basic storm armor. If it weren't for the most critical moment, basically Duke wouldn't have let them go to war.

Taking a step back, if the Storm Army crushes the Ice Demons, Duke will not let them go to war, because this is a sacrifice in vain, so the conditions for them to participate in the war are very harsh, as long as it is their turn to go to war when the balance of victory needs the last bargaining chips.

Along with the logistics army was Gandalf, who had rested for a long time since the last time his magic failed. And nothing big happened in Storm Castle, so Duke didn't trouble Gandalf either, and now that Storm Castle is in the time of a big war again, it is natural that Gandalf needs to come forward, otherwise the dark magic of the necromancer, the current storm army is really unable to resist.

When Gandalf came to the tent, his face was very unpleasant, because as he was an archmagister, Duke's behavior of calling him into battle when he had nothing to do made Gandalf feel very cheap. But he also knows the current situation of Stormcastle, and more importantly, although Gandalf doesn't say it, he also has a deep affection for Stormcastle, so he will choose to make a move in the end.

It's no problem to make a move, but Gandalf's pride makes him still can't help but mutter: "Little guy, you have to understand that I am a noble archmage, not one of your thugs, and you don't want me to take any military action in the future!"

In the face of Gandalf's dissatisfaction, Duke has long been used to it, and said very indifferently: "Gandalf, if I have a way, I don't want to ask you to follow, the current magic rune resistance of the storm armor is not enough, and the consumption of magic crystals is too large, so I can only rely on you!"
