Chapter 199: Battle Plan
Fernando City, Royal Knights Barracks, Imperial Operational Headquarters.
The main person in charge of the Six-Party Alliance and their most trusted deputies are all sitting in the Imperial Combat Command, including Ryan, who has been here since yesterday after signing that alliance, and a day and a night have passed, everyone has only eaten a little food, and they don't even have a chance to close their eyes, and what these people are worried about is, of course, the current unfavorable situation on the mainland.
Now the demi-demon army has come to this continent through the portal located in the underground of Black Rock City, forcing the dwarves to abandon their homes and temporarily live in Cassano, which also makes the western front of Cassano and Mochizuki City directly face the threat of those fierce and brutal demi-demons, and according to the information they got from the underground, the army of those demi-demons is only afraid that it has exceeded 500,000, so many troops are far from being able to deal with the armies of Cassano and Mochizuki City, fortunately, there are elves, The support of the dwarf clan is able to compete with these half-demons.
In addition to this, the Nicholas Legion that originally raided Black Rock City and the Catherine Legion who besieged the imperial capital have mysteriously disappeared, according to the information collected by some scouts, Orlando deduced that they should have merged together, roughly in the deep mountains of the Hengduan Mountains, plus the undead creatures do not need to eat or rest, so the alliance has no way to determine their specific location, and can only judge that they should be moving to the north according to various signs, thinking that the undead legion does not want to get too close to the half-demon army, and seeing their various hidden whereabouts now, the intention of the undead legion to sit and watch the alliance and the half-demon lose is very obviousγ
The main force of the undead legion to the north directly affects the safety of the newly opened Mirror Lake territory in the imperial capital, as the largest horse production area of mankind, once this place is occupied by the undead legion, the human race will lose the most threatening heavy cavalry unit in the next war, which is what everyone on the alliance side does not want to see, so the imperial capital has to strengthen the defense in the Mirror Lake area, but Orlando is not sure about this, and only hopes that these arrangements can delay the advance of the undead legion a little more, and buy time for the arrival of reinforcements from the imperial capital.
In addition to these, there are also many things in the east of the continent, the most direct is the defense system of the Undead Legion's Morry-Seke City-Seabreeze City, in this defense system, the White Bone City located on the original site of Moli Town directly threatens the safety of the imperial capital, and the undead garrison of Seke City simply cuts off the north-south communication channel of the mainland, as for the existence of Seabreeze City, it can also allow the undead legion to take the sea ship north to Sunrise City anytime and anywhere, and carry out a north-south attack on the imperial capital, and the characteristics of the undead creatures can make each ship that is sent out without thinking about the supply problem, so that a large sea ship that can carry 2000 warriors can be enough to hold tens of thousands of undead warriorsAs long as the ship does not sink during the voyage, the consequences of these undead warriors successfully landing in Sunrise City are unimaginable.
It can be said that the current situation on the continent is extremely unfavorable for the six members of the alliance, because the alliance does not have a stable rear and cannot provide a steady stream of troops, food, and weapons...... And it must be passively fortified everywhere, resulting in too scattered forces, unable to invest in the war in any region on a large scale, and quickly end the battle with an overwhelming advantage, so that the war falls into a never-ending entanglement, which is very similar to the situation when the imperial capital was attacked by the enemy.
The meeting lasted for a day and a night, and the participants basically reached a certain consensus, and decided to first clear the undead legion cities in the east of the continent, and then use the natural barrier of the sea to open up a stable rear, so that the alliance does not need to defend everywhere, and can devote more troops to the war against the enemy, form an overwhelming advantage in a local war as much as possible, and gradually reduce the enemy's living forces.
That's the basic idea. General Orlando stood in front of the beautifully crafted battle map and said to everyone: "This attack will be carried out by the Imperial Capital as the main force, and the forces of Cassano and Mochizuki Castle will focus on the defense of their own area and will not participate. Freedom Heaven is responsible for the supply of materials for this attack, and there is no need to dispatch a mercenary group. However, in order to be able to quickly defeat the enemy and prevent the war from falling into a glued state, I propose to form a magic legion to attack the fortification, I hope that Ryan and Clifford will support you, if you are worried that the transfer of these magicians will affect your own defense system, our emperor can send some troops to assist in the defense, and these armies will accept the direct command of your defense system during the assistance period. β
"I'm fine. In this case, Ryan naturally agreed, he had already thought about it, this time he would bring all his students, including Barbara's magic legion, to participate in the battle, although this would weaken the long-range combat strength of the Iron Fist Castle, but with a large number of wind shooters of the elf clan can also make up for it, and even more than that.
Clifford didn't agree so readily, he wanted to weigh the pros and cons of this move and then give an answer, seconding a large number of magicians to assist in the battle for Clifford has nothing to worry about, when has it been the turn of magicians to come to the front line of the battlefield in person? Their safety will naturally be heavily protected by a large number of troops, but the army of the imperial capital has taken over part of the defense line of Mochizuki City, which makes Clifford suspicious, in case the emperor has other ideas, it will be troublesome.
Just as Clifford was thinking, Ryan's words dispelled his doubts: "The distance from the imperial capital to Mochizuki City is too far, it is better to mobilize a group of troops from Cassano to garrison Mochizuki City, Freya, this team is selected and led by you, as for the lack of Cassano's defensive strength caused by the departure of these elven archers, it is better to be taken over by the army of the imperial capital, how about it?"
Of course, Clifford can trust the elven clan, after all, the entire Mochizuki City was established with the help of the elven clan, not to mention that this time the elven queen Freya personally led the team, what else did he have to worry about? As for the matter of Cassano, I believe that even if the imperial capital has ambitions to annex its allies, it will not take the lead in slashing the territory closest to its own Ryan, which can only force others to their opposite.
Seeing Clifford nodding in agreement, General Orlando, who was standing aside, nodded to Ryan in gratitude, and the latter shrugged his shoulders and gave a reply. The problem of troop mobilization has been solved, and the remaining material deployment and the like will naturally be arranged and handled by the subordinates, and there is no need for Orlando to worry about their brains, so Orlando thought for a while, and said: "Then the entire attack plan has been decided like this, everyone pay attention to secrecy." Well, it's set for the fifteenth of next month, so what? There are still about 40 days to go, which should be enough. If there are no major problems, then please Ryan and Clifford get to the Coalition army garrison in Morry before the 13th. We will negotiate the specific attack route slowly at that time. β
"Okay!" everyone naturally agreed.
"Is there anything else you have to do?" Orlando saw that the first military meeting of the alliance was about to end successfully, and his heart was also a lot more relaxed, he spread his hands and said: "If it's okay, we might as well go and taste the delicious food of the imperial capital, and then take a good rest!"
"Well, I have a proposal!" Ryan stretched out his hand to speak, and he stood up and said loudly, "Delay everyone for a few minutes, it's a simple but important thing. Now that we have formed an alliance with the six parties, although we will send friendship masters to each other, if something particularly important happens, it will be too long to wait until we gather together from different places on the continent to discuss it, so I suggest that a teleportation magic circle be set up in six different places. β
"Teleportation Circle?" Clifford repeated in a whisper.
"Yes. Ryan said very simply: "I believe Master Clifford, you also know that there is such a magic array between the Iron Fist Castle and the Imperial Capital, although it can only teleport a few people at a time, but it is very useful, unless someone uses a large interference magic array to block the magic connection between the two places, even if the distance is far away, it can be gathered together in a very short time." β
"This ......" Chilaviv, who was sitting on the side, was a little worried that once such a magic array was built, it would cause all kinds of unsafe factors, so his face was full of worry, his expression was seen by Ryan, and he said with a smile: "Master Victor, the ** master of the imperial capital, is one of my teachers, and in a sense, I was able to master the power of the forbidden spell also thanks to his inspiration to me, so I ......"
Chilaviv's face was suddenly extremely embarrassed, because he knew what Ryan meant by what he didn't say, since Victor's strength was only stronger than Ryan's, then if he wanted to clean up the free heaven and kill Chilaviv, Viktor could also follow Ryan's example and directly use a Thor's Wrath to turn the entire city into ruins. Speaking of which, whether it is Free Heaven or Mochizuki City, they can occupy a position in the new alliance because of the existence of Cassano, so from this point of view, Chilaviv can not trust Orlando, but he must trust Ryan, which is the basis for their continued existence.
"Well, I agree. Thinking of this, Chilaviv naturally reluctantly agreed.
"Neither I nor Reynolds have an objection. Elven Queen Freya spoke, "However, since we all live in Iron Fist Castle now, we don't need as many as six, just build such a teleportation magic array between the Imperial Capital, Mochizuki City, and Freedom Heaven." β
"No, it's not just the magic arrays from other regions that go to the imperial capital, but also the two-way teleportation magic arrays like the Iron Fist Castle - Free Heaven, which can strengthen the connection between us, and can also use the most powerful power to quickly support. At this point in Ryan's words, everyone understood what he meant, obviously with such a magic array, once a certain area is tight, a legendary powerhouse like Ryan can teleport to the place where they are most needed, and even one more legendary powerhouse may rewrite the entire war barrier.
