Chapter 110: The Jungle

Personally led a team to march and fight, and this was the first time that a big girl had been on a sedan chair.

In the previous world, the Empire's foreign wars were all handled by royalty or lords appointed by the Emperor, and it was not the turn of the nobles in the imperial capital to be responsible. This was to prevent the aristocratic group from further disintegrating the ruling power of the royal family after they took control of the army, and although this decree was in the end a virtual reality, not many nobles were willing to go to the front to fight. It's not because I'm afraid of not playing well or losing, but because I'm purely afraid of being tired.

Even if you win the battle all the time, it is not as good as enjoying it in the imperial capital, even if you lose, there are people who will carry the black cauldron, why do you want to meddle in the war?

At this point, he had to gather everyone together.

"The commander has just humiliated Leria's messenger and thrown him out, and the next siege battle is inevitable. Even though we have two siege beasts, I always feel that this battle will not be so smooth. Rosie looked around, as the commander of a thousand-man team, he was also a big officer in the army sequence. The centurions sat honestly at his bottom and listened carefully to him.

Rosie pinched his chin, leaned his upper body slightly, and leaned back in his chair, "Mountain and forest combat is different from plain warfare, there are too many factors that affect the course of the war, and we are not very suitable for mountain combat, which is a severe test of the personal quality of the soldiers below." We are all brothers who are like brothers, brothers who have fought a bloody way in the sea of corpses and blood, and I don't want everyone to get hurt, so in the ensuing battle, I hope you can stay calm. ”

Arcadia, five short stature, strong as an ox, with scars all over his face and body, is a ruthless character who climbs from the bottom to the centurion with his true skills. He hesitated a little, "My lord, there are siege monsters as the vanguard, and it won't be our turn to attack the city, so why worry?"

Many people agree with his words, and the siege beast is a key factor in changing the form of siege warfare. Once the siege battle began, both sides had to leave no room for a steady stream of soldiers in their hands to pile up a bloody road to the head of the opponent's city wall. After the appearance of the siege beast, the siege battle is completely different, the huge monster can easily destroy a city's wall defense system, opening a relatively less tragic entrance for the attacker.

Of course, there are only a few countries that can use siege beasts after all, and only forces like Yelut, which have been preparing for a long time, can do it. As for the other forces, there may be, but definitely not as many as Jerut.

The opponent of the Siege Beast can only be the Siege Beast, of course, some powerful heroes and demigods can also stop the Siege Beast.

Rossi shook his head, "If I were the Archon of Leria, I would now ask all the Lerians to abandon their fortifications and go to the jungle to fight a war of attrition in the mountains. They were one step ahead of us in the jungle fighting, which was a huge advantage. The only thing to be thankful for now is that there are not many capable people in the entire Leria, otherwise the outcome of this battle is really not so easy to say. ”

Pessimists like Rossi are in the minority after all, and most people are very optimistic about the battle ahead. In the eyes of these people, the difference between mountain warfare and plain warfare is that there are more trees, and there is no way to form a large-scale corps charge and cavalry charge. There are more plants, but as long as you are careful, you are not afraid of sneak attacks.

They had not fought such battles and, of course, did not understand the cruelty of mountain warfare.

Looking at the centurions who were insincere and full of contempt, Rosie didn't say more, saying too much would not only not work, but would also stimulate their rebellious mentality. If it's smooth sailing, it's fine, and if you hit a hard bone, it's easy to have a large area of battle damage.

After a few brief instructions, he waved the centurions away.

Rosie sat alone in the tent, looking up at the top of the tent, but thinking about the things of another world. Truth be told, if he knew that collecting seven lucky coins would come to this world, he wouldn't have done that. He still has a lot of things to do in that world, leaving a lot of regrets. What he was most worried about was that after he left, Fabio, the old dog, would turn his face and be ruthless.

He's going to do it, Rossi is sure.

An old fox who has been playing politics for decades and treats means and conspiracies as food and drink is definitely not a good master.

His greatest wish at the moment was to gather all the holy artifacts at once and find his way back.

His thoughts drifted apart, and he thought of Hogg again.

Hogg must have some kind of holy weapon hidden on him, but he didn't know exactly what it was. Through this period of observation, Rosie found that Hogg was a very self-disciplined person, and he was not at all like his mother, the goddess of the dawn known as the mad dog of Jerut, who was arrogant and reckless. He lives a very regular life, and is rarely alone, and most of the time, he is followed by others.

This is a difficult opponent to deal with, and Rossi is not unable to defeat him, but he is afraid that he will attract gods in the battle, and that will be a big problem.

The barracks were full of people, and the logistics management was constantly handing out weapons and rations from the peasants to the soldiers, and Jelut was good at never withholding supplies from the soldiers. Every soldier received a full amount of things, and the quality was also excellent.

After a night of rectification, early in the morning of the next day, two siege beasts more than 20 meters high began to move forward. Everywhere they went, whether it was trees or rocks, they were swept aside. However, it may be because these two demonic beasts have not climbed the mountain either, and their speed is very slow. Of course, this may also be due to the excellent ecosystem here, which makes the trees so thick that they block the path of the monsters.

The first day's march did not cause much trouble, but between the jungles some of Loria's outposts could be faintly seen hanging from the branches. They seemed to have figured out some experience, and each sentinel was like an ape, pulling at a wrist-thick vine, swinging around like an ape.

The bald head also made a fire for this, but there was nothing he could do. The Lerea never came closer, but just stared at it from afar, and as soon as they saw the archers approaching, they immediately turned and walked away, without stopping for a moment.

By the next day, there was finally some minor friction between the two sides.

As we move deeper into the forest, the number and size of trees change rapidly. When I first entered the mountain, the tallest tree was only level with the monster, and it was only one or two people hugging each other. After advancing one-fifth of the way, the trees here are thirty or forty meters high, and each thick one requires four or five people to hug each other. Even if the siege beast is infinitely powerful, in the face of such a situation, it can only be said that there is nothing to be done.

Every time a giant tree is overthrown, the siege beast needs to rest for a while.

Trees are amazing plants, they are as big as they are outside the soil, they are as big as they are under the soil, and they can even be several times larger. If you can't break these trees directly with force, it will be extremely laborious to knock them down.

More troublesome is still behind, with scout reconnaissance, after more than half of the journey, the trees there are thicker, and higher, covering the sky and the sun, there are some trees that have grown for tens of thousands of years, like natural city walls, densely growing together, entangled with each other, blending in, forming a natural barrier. There are also some trees that are amazingly large, with a diameter of more than ten meters thick, let alone falling down, and it is not a day's work to cut them down.

After gathering many generals to discuss, he finally decided to travel lightly, abandon the original plan, send the siege monster back to the camp, and march directly to the city of Leria, using the most primitive method to attack the city.

However, this order directly buried the lives of nearly a hundred soldiers in less than an hour.

The jungle is a natural trap, and with the deliberate manipulation of the Lerians, the entire forest has become a man-eating monster. Someone was walking and was suddenly swallowed by a huge half-human-tall carnivorous plant on the side of the road, and when they were rescued, they had been corroded by digestive juices, and only half a life was left. Someone was walking and walking, and suddenly a pegboard fell from above, nailing the person to the ground.

In addition, the ground is also full of all kinds of traps and potholes, and if you fall down, you will definitely die.

The Jeruts, who had never fought in the mountains and forests, suffered for it.
