As Gnison harnessed one of the remaining ghostly beasts around the valley to the front to stop the battlefield.
"What about people!?"
He dragged the captain of the wolf knight who had come to report on the battle, and his eyes were so shattered that his two sharp fangs almost gnawed into the other party's face.
Hag and the Archbishop of Erathia suddenly turned around and forcibly killed Lord Avalon, and the Thunderbirds, who had lost control, began to attack even their own people, and then they took advantage of the chaos to snatch the two demon wolves, and now they are running north. ”
"Rubbish!"
Gnison kicked the captain in the chest, and the huge force even made the wolf knight fly upside down for several meters, but when he landed, he could only immediately struggle to get up and stand still, not even daring to get out of the air, let alone wipe the blood from the corners of his mouth and the dust on his face.
It's no wonder that Gnison is so furious, an army of nearly a thousand people, fully equipped and even assisted by a Thunderbird brigade and a ghost beast, he thought that if such a force could not kill the two Hagronnis on the spot, at least they could besiege them and wait for his arrival, but when he arrived, he got the news that the other party had fled.
In fact, Gnison himself has an unshirkable responsibility, and the team he temporarily deployed came from two large battalions outside the city, and in the urgency of his order, there was no clear commander to choose from, which led to the scene of each detachment fighting completely separately once the pursuit battle began.
There is a part left on the other side of the valley, and a part is left on the top of the mountain, and there are hundreds of people who bypass the valley and outflank each other, and there is no tacit understanding between each other if they chase but not block and do not fit together, which gives Haag and Ronis space to break through, if this thousand-man team can pounce on it, even if Haag and Ronis are brave, they will lose half their lives.
However, it is useless to say anything now.
"Chase! They can't run away!"
Although the speed of the demon wolf is fast, but the durability is not strong, Gnison knows this very well, even if Haag escaped some distance in advance, but the ground within a radius of thousands of miles is the endless Gobi Desert, with the thunderbirds in the sky to detect, they have nowhere to hide, and the towns along the way are all barbarians, and they can't get any supplies.
Especially when Gnison heard that Hag had once again shown the image of Blood Shura, he had already made up his mind that he would not let Hag live no matter what, not even if he returned to Lord Tanan alive.
At the same time, under the moonlight thousands of kilometers away, Lear had just opened the gate of Longding City with a round of fierce bombardment, and after experiencing the terrifying power of the new hot weapon, the more than 1,000 big-eared monsters and orcs guarding the city consciously put down their weapons in their hands, and then lined up in two columns according to the requirements and walked out of the city gate.
In Dragondome City, a rugged town hall made of boulders and sassal wood, Lear leads his captains in a second battle discussion after entering Krurod.
"It's been more than a month since we entered the territory of Krurod, during which time we have captured a total of five towns, including the current Dragon Top City, nearly 100,000 barbarians have learned the teachings of the Dragon God of Order, although we don't expect them to become devout believers of the Order immediately, but this is undoubtedly a good start, the problem now is that Dragon Top City is already the last town of the barbarians on the eastern front, and if we go down, only the Wall Peak Fortress of Bracada will remain, let's talk about what to do next. ”
Lear made an opening introduction but did not completely exclude the Fortress of the Wall Peak, which made the captains ponder and at the same time have some excitement in their hearts, you must know that for 600 years, the Fortress of the Wall Peak has been known as a fortress that will never fall, even at the peak of the Barbarian Soldier Peak, it has swallowed the bitter fruit under the Peak of the Wall, but what will happen in the face of endless artillery bombardment and the impact of the Crystal Dragon?
The mere capture of the glory of the Land That Never Falls is enough to make all the warriors fascinated.
"Let's hit the wall peak! I'll be the first one!"
Tariq was the first to jump out, and it was evident that he was still haunted by the humiliation he had suffered under the wall.
"No way!"
Before Lear could speak, Guina was the first to reject Tariq's proposal.
"Why? Our army has been invincible since we entered Krurod, and with our current strength and strength, we are not afraid of any challenge at all, and if it weren't for the avalanche disaster caused by the dastardly Bracada mages back then, I might have been drinking in the taverns of the Holy Crown City long ago!"
Tariq glared at Guina, apparently unconvinced by his direct denial.
"Bracada is different from Krurod, the heritage of the six-hundred-year empire on which the sun never sets is definitely not comparable to that of barbarians who have just escaped from slavery. ”
Speaking of this, Guina glanced at Tariq, and saw that he had no misunderstanding of his words before she let go of her worries and continued, in fact, what she didn't know was that Tariq didn't care about her derogatory treatment of barbarians at all, and since he was reincarnated and resurrected by Lear, he had completely identified himself as a Spartacus.
"Although Bracada's army is rumored to have been defeated by the Barbarians, let's not forget that Bracada's current actual ruler is the wizard King Oros, and the real ruler, the immortal wizard King Gwen Magnus, has never made a move.
Although we now seem to be in the throes of the army, but in fact this is all based on the illusion that we have not encountered a real enemy, and no country on this continent is far superior to us in terms of the number of troops alone, after all, it is a city to fight a country, and the barbarians can be defeated again and again, but we can't, if we don't want the tens of thousands of Spartacus warriors who follow us to die in a foreign country, we must be very careful in every decision. ”
"You talked about it for a long time, and you didn't say why you couldn't hit the wall peak. ”
Although he had understood what Guina meant, Tariq still muttered a little dissatisfied, obviously he had a deep obsession with Wall Peak.
"I said, Gwen Magnus, we're not sure if we have what it takes to challenge him head-on, so I don't agree to hit the wall. ”
Guina said in a deep voice, and Tariq, who knew that he was wrong, could only sit down silently when he heard this.
Indeed, as long as the creatures living on this continent are all in awe or fear when they mention that immortal legend, not to mention that the man who has single-handedly destroyed the glorious barbarian empire and enslaved the barbarians for three hundred years, how strong he is, Tarik can't imagine at all.
"There's no need to be burdened. ”
Lear gave Guina an encouraging look and looked at Tariq.
"Even if we don't fight now, we will fight one day, and it is impossible to leave out Bracada alone by spreading the holy light of the dragon god, and there is still an old account between me and Oros, there must be a battle before Wall Peak, but not now. ”
Sure enough, as soon as he heard Lear say this, Tariq immediately raised his head again, and his angry eyes lit up with a long-lasting fire.
As for the rest of the people who understood what Lear was talking about, there was naturally nothing to say.
"I think we should turn back to the northeast, two thousand kilometers north of Longding City, which is the most important border town of the barbarians, the city of treachery. Mrak stood up and pointed to the map, where a town icon sits among the mountains.
"The city of treachery, located at the end of the Steelac Mountains, bordered by the vast plains of Brakaton, and because of its rich mineral deposits, it is one of the largest settlements of the Krulrod barbarians, which is of great importance to the preaching work of the Priesthood, and above all, Tanan would never have thought that we would turn back on a parallel course, and by the time he had followed our footsteps to the city of Dragondoes, we would have circled back to his great rear.
It will only be ten days' journey south from the city of treachery to the Beit League, and then we will go directly south through the Beit League and then directly to the barbarian Zudi Strong, so that the barbarian army will always be behind us and we will have spare strength at all times, so that when the difference in morale levels between the two sides reaches a suitable peak, we will be able to actively seek a decisive battle, and then the small number will become our advantage. ”
"Why don't you just go south to Siqiang?
Ivo raised his own questions.
"Our marching route is not deliberately secret, so by now Tanan should have a rough idea of the position of our army, in this case he must divide his troops to garrison Siqiangge, and as the ancestral land of the barbarians, the difficulty of attacking the fortification does not need to be repeated, if it cannot be attacked for a long time, it will inevitably face retreat, and at that time Tanan will mobilize a large army to surround it everywhere, we will lose the strategic initiative that has always been the case, only by taking Tanan to fight guerrillas, dragging his army soft and tired to the point that we don't know what we are going to do, then a sword out of the sheath can achieve the final effect。 ”
Mlak looked at the map in front of him with burning eyes, as if he had already known the course and outcome of the battles.
"I agree. ”
After listening to Mrak's explanation, Ivo says that he has no problem, so all eyes return to Lear, after all, the final decision is still up to him.
"I want to say a question. Lear smiled and looked at the crowd in front of him. "It seems that we have been attacking and plundering cities since entering Krurod, but there is one fact that I don't know if you have noticed, and that is that we have never really occupied any town, so why not occupy it?"
Everyone, including Mrak, looked thoughtful, but this time Lear didn't continue to sell Guanzi.
"It is true, as Mlak said, that Tanan will inevitably divide his forces to garrison Sqiangge after knowing our marching route, but what about the towns that we have abandoned and reoccupied along the way?
"The most important point, after many divisions of troops, is the force he carries really enough to fight a decisive battle with our army?"
"What do you mean, sir?"
As soon as Lear finished speaking, a bright light flashed in Mrak's eyes, and it seemed that he understood.
"Yes, we don't need to capture any city at all, it doesn't mean anything to us, the ultimate goal of the war is to destroy the enemy's living force, as long as Tanan dares to divide his troops all the way to pursue, then we dare to turn back and give him a painful lesson, try to ask what army can stop a charge of the crystal dragons on the field battlefield?"
