Chapter 21 Responding to the Enemy

Although Du Hongcheng had ordered Chris to prepare the battle plan, he was a little relieved, after all, this was the battle of the empire to decide the empire, and Du Hongcheng was really relieved not to plan it himself. Back in the palace, Du Hongcheng went directly into the study and began to prepare the strategic plan.

"Your Excellency, it's time to eat. ”

The maid outside the door walked into the study and called out softly to Du Hongcheng.

"Got it, you go down first. Du Hongcheng said casually without raising his head.

The maid hesitated for a moment, and whispered, "Your Excellency, you haven't eaten for five days, and although imperial affairs are important, your body is even more important." ”

Hearing what the maid said, the pen in Du Hongcheng's hand paused, and he raised his head and looked at the maid with a smile.

"It's not easy for you to have such a heart, I'll reward you with a taste of the imperial meal today, go down, my cultivation is okay if you don't eat for a year. ”

The maid was overjoyed in her heart, and after thanking Du Hongcheng, she was about to leave.

"Return, send me a message, and order your ministers not to come and disturb me if they have nothing important to do today. ”

The maid took the order and withdrew.

Du Hongcheng looked at the map on the wall and continued to think about it.

The empire now has two main territories, the province of Natlin and the port of Modeletos.

Among them, the northern part of the province of Natlin is basically plain, with minimal surface undulations, as the northern gate of the empire, such a place should have built a deep ditch fortress to strengthen the defense. However, due to the young age of the empire and the economic difficulties, the fortress was never settled. As a result, there were only a few small cities in the northern part of the empire on the plains, and the fortifications were extremely scarce. Du Hongcheng was still struggling with this before, but with Chris's inspiration, it seems that there is nothing to worry about now.

If the Church's legions are so powerful as a whole, why should the Empire's armies go toe-to-toe with them?

Why should we use our own shortcomings to confront the enemy's strengths? The church wants to attack, but the empire does not confront the opponent head-on, and Du Hongcheng wants to let the church's ruthless punch hit the void, just like hitting cotton without any strength at all, rubbing the church's sharp spirit.

Thinking in this way, Du Hongcheng became more and more confident in his heart to defeat the church, as long as this battle can resist the attack of the church, then the image of the church in the world will be more and more shaken, and the reputation of the empire will continue to rise. Not only that, but the Church's several major mage legions are sinking here one after another, then the Church's control over the entire world will be further reduced, so that the balance of victory will continue to tilt in favor of the Empire!

In other words, this is the Battle of Tianwang Mountain, and once the church wins, Du Hongcheng's side will be a complete defeat. Conversely, if the empire wins, then it will be the beginning of the demise of Yahweh.

Two days later, Minister Chris came to the palace, Du Hongcheng had been waiting for him in the prince's palace for a long time, and Chris respectfully presented a plan.

Du Hongcheng nodded and casually handed his plan to Chris.

"You can also look at some of the preparations I've made in the past two days. ”

Chris took Du Hongcheng's plan and read it carefully.

About an hour later, Du Hongcheng closed Chris's plan and put it on his desk.

Chris saw that Du Hongcheng had finished reading his plan, so he glanced at him secretly. But Du Hongcheng's face did not have any expression.

This made Chris's heart a little uncertain, and the two of them passed another hour in this silent breath.

"Lord Chris, what do you think of the King's strategic plan? Even if you say it, you don't have to scruple about it. ”

Chris took the order and confessed to Du Hongcheng.

"The adult's plan is seamless, and the villain admires it. For the details of the adult's plan and the thoughtfulness of the idea, the villain is really ashamed of himself, but the villain has something unclear, and I hope the adult will teach him. ”

"But it doesn't hurt to say that. ”

Chris bowed to Du Hongcheng again and asked Du Hongcheng: "There are some places in your plan that are so detailed that you arrange for individuals to participate in the war, will the strength of one person change the entire battle situation? Although our country adopts an elite strategy in this war, how can the strength of one person compare with the previous army?"

Du Hongcheng smiled after listening to Chris's question.

"Don't worry, Lord Chris. You haven't seen the power of a truly powerful monk yet, this time I'm afraid you can see how terrifying a monk is when you reach a certain level of cultivation, you don't have to go to Modritos in this battle, stay in Natlin to preside over the battle. ”

Chris looked at Du Hongcheng suspiciously.

"I hope that your Excellency will be careful, after all, the empire cannot afford to lose this time, and the minister will stay in Natling to accompany the prince and Her Majesty the empress in advance and retreat. ”

Du Hongcheng nodded.

"You're right, I should reconsider more of a hindsight, you go down. Chris gave me an order and ordered the army to start preparing!"

Chris was ordered to retreat, and Du Hongcheng walked into the palace and called the dove out of his cultivation. Briefly talked about the current situation of the empire with her.

"You are so complicated, I don't understand it. ”

The dove blinked his big eyes and looked at Du Hongcheng innocently.

Du Hongcheng spread his hands helplessly.

"Anyway...... If the church is killed, you will act according to the plan and kill the monks of the church!"

The dove nodded.

"As long as it's an enemy, I won't be soft!"

Du Hongcheng was very satisfied.

"Very well, listen to my orders when the time comes. ”

With Du Hongcheng's order, the empire was running rapidly, and all the monks and soldiers who were below the rank of secretary were sent to the port of Modritos.

Only the monks above the rank of secretary remained in Natling.

Among the four commanders of the Assassination Star, Guo Haochen also left the province of Natling, his personal strength is really not outstanding enough, and staying in Natling may be dangerous, and it is obviously a wiser decision to send him to Modritos to deal with the work in the army.

Among the people left, Du Hongcheng divided them into several groups, the first was Du Hongcheng as the team leader, Qian Yangyang as the deputy team leader, and six minister-level monks under his command. The second is that the doves are in a group of their own. The third is the group of Yao Bin and Judiwen. The fourth is that Dressley and the two undead become a group.

There are four groups in total, hidden among the people, according to the orders of Du Hongcheng and Chris, to carry out strategic sneak attacks on several major magicians of the church, consuming the strength of the opponent, in short, guerrilla warfare!

Just the day after the retreat of the imperial troops.

The Church, with the Second Wizard Legion and the Knights as the vanguard, slaughtered the Natlyn!

The head of the Second Wizard Legion, Snod, is a new archbishop with little seniority within the Church, and this battle is a great opportunity for him to build up his merits.

This time in the face of the battle of the Pompeii Empire, in addition to excitement, he was also a little afraid. After all, this place once destroyed all the high-ranking monks of the entire Inquisition!

Snood asked himself if he couldn't stand up to the cardinal, let alone the chief judge, but here it is!

I don't know what mystery this Pompeii Empire is hiding.

Thinking like this, the Second Wizard Legion has already crossed the Kumon Forest!

"Stop!" Snod made a stop gesture.

From now on, our army is approaching the city of Loznod on foot, and the Pope has ordered me to wait to fight this first battle, and we must win beautifully!"
