The Iron Shield Legion soon joined up with the Dragon's Breath Legion, at which point the First Army arrived.

Bessen, Mars, Marshalles and Marshall gathered together.

The dense red crosses on the map are shocking, those are all enemy-occupied areas, and behind them is a piece of blue, which is your own territory. And where the red and blue are intertwined, there is a blur, and they are on this line.

To be honest, even after listening to Mars's narration, Beson still couldn't believe that the Magister was so powerful. He'd seen the Great Magician, and to be honest, that's it. Could it be that if this crosses a level, the strength will be turned upside down?

"I think it's still a line of defense along the Cangjiang River. Even if a Magister comes, I have a number of sharpshooters who can kill him, not to mention that we have artillery. ”

Beson stood his mind, and he had a natural confidence in his army.

Mars retorted mercilessly.

"Even if the First Army is so powerful, it can't compete with the flood. Even if you survive the floods, it will be a question of whether the muddy roads will facilitate the movement of artillery. The natural danger in the Cangjiang area is a joke in front of the Magister. ”

Besson was clearly not going to give in easily, after all, he didn't think he was inferior to Mars militarily. In fact, it is

"This area is all mountainous, and the lowest is thirty meters, I don't believe that these magic masters can lift the Cangjiang River to thirty meters."

"Not really, as long as the water level overflows the shore, muddy roads will be very detrimental to logistics. Not to mention the fact that the First Army was very dependent on logistics. When the time comes, they will only need to build a few small boats, and they will be able to cross over. ”

Besson really didn't understand why the two generals had to take the Magus so seriously. Can it be compared to a hundred kilometers of powerful fortifications?

"I still think let the Iron Shield Legion come from the west, and the Dragon's Breath Legion from the east. Swallowing the falcon and the tiger in one bite is the best tactic at the moment. ”

Marshall said as he gestured on the map.

Beson did not hesitate to point out the mistake.

"This pincer offensive can only deal with an enemy without reinforcements, and as soon as the nobles' army arrives, it will either attack or be surrounded. This tactic is too risky. ”

Marshall shook his hand and denied Besson.

"The army of the nobles still needs to be reorganized, they can't support it so quickly, at most send troops to harass. It's a good time for us to attack. ”

"It's too risky, who knows if the noble army will be reinforced. It's all your guess. I still insist that Cangjiang is our best line of defense. The magister's strength is exaggerated, I can't believe it. ”

Marshall and Mars glanced at each other and saw the helplessness in each other's eyes. If he has to insist on a pincer offensive, Beson will retreat to Cangjiang. The rear is empty, and it will be very unfavorable to yourself when the time comes. If Beson can work closely with the two of them to defend their retreat, they will attack without any burden. It's a pity that Beisen's obsession is too deep to be reversed.

Balde watched several generals really quarrel and didn't know how to calm it down. The three are all battle-hardened celebrities, and it is not his turn to speak.

If he wants to support Beson, after all, his plan is more secure and looks more reliable. And Marshall and Mars had obviously already fought once, and must have known the nobility better than they did. But their plan was too risky, and even in his opinion, it was fortuitous that was the majority.

The older Marshall and Mars opted for a more risky and aggressive approach, while the younger Bessen stuck to a safe plan. It's very abnormal.

In the end, Besson made a decision.

"In this way, General Mars, General Marshall, you go to attack, and I will return to Cangjiang to build an offensive. If you are defeated, flee to me, and if you are victorious, I will rush to my aid by train! Neither is wrong. ”

It was clear that Besson didn't want to dwell on it any longer, and he thought that these old stubborns clearly didn't believe in the dramatic changes in warfare brought about by artillery and muskets. The current war is completely different from the era when they picked up their broadswords and slashed indiscriminately.

Marshall had no choice but to compromise.

"General Beisen, since you think that the Cangjiang defense line is unbreakable, then what are we going to attack for? Let's go back to Cangjiang. ”

Wayne received an urgent encrypted letter on the way to Nolan, and the messenger almost died suddenly on the way, and immediately fainted as soon as he arrived. After arranging for the priest's treatment, Wayne hurriedly opened the letter.

Xiang Nan's fleet is back! But not from the south, as expected, but from the north, the direction in which they set out.

After reading it again, Wayne's face was defeated, and his emotions did not fluctuate so strongly when he lost the imperial capital.

"Turn, go to the territory."

Wayne, who was halfway there, immediately rushed to his territory again, and hurried up. It was also the first time that everyone had seen Count Nils in such a hurry.

Three days later, Beisen and his party successfully crossed the Cangjiang River. And Wayne also felt territorial for two days. Seeing Xiang Nan's group with half of his body rotting and his bones exposed. They can't be said to be human anymore, and the only thing Wayne can associate with them is zombies, half-dead zombies.

"What about the pastor, why didn't the pastor have a treatment?"

Wayne shouted angrily.

"Count Nils, the priest can't heal us even if he exhausts his divine powers."

One of the crew members spoke, and a muffled voice could be heard. With a hoarse, abrasive tone. It's like some beast is trying its best to imitate human speech.

"What's going on with you, how did you get like this?"

Wayne asked in a trembling voice.

The crew thought for a long time and said heavily.

"Corrosion, these monsters will attach to the body. Corrupt away the original flesh and flesh and become one with you. ”

With that, he opened his shirt, revealing a wriggling mass of rotting flesh inside. The location of his lungs. He pointed.

"I've tried to take it off, and in addition to feeling a lot of pain, I found myself unable to breathe. I guess it replaced some of my organs. ”

Everyone gasped.

This carrion is more like a mass of sarcoma, and the irregular surge is like eating something, and it is also like moving.

Xiang Nan, the leader, said.

"North, north. Don't go there, it's all chaos, chaos that can't be resisted. ”

Wayne thought of the dragons of the Great Wall of the North, and thought of what they seemed to be guarding, could it be that they were defending against these monsters?

"And what about the rest of the crew." Wayne asked.

"Some of them were completely corroded and lost their minds, and we threw him off the ship. There are also some who, unable to stand the pain of corrosion, ended their lives with flames. ”

At this moment, as if thinking of something, one of the crew members fell to his knees, hid his face with his hands, and sobbed.

"Applejack, Applejack has an octopus on his head. That octopus slowly sucked at his head, the white stuff, you know? There's something white coming out. He couldn't stand it, he roared night after night, and when he died, he pulled out his brain. That's the devil, the devil the Father fears. ”
