Chapter 117: Alternation of Commanders
Albert and Quinn were thrown out by the wave of air behind them, and some of the soldiers around them who were usually more convinced of them also retreated together in Albert's shout, and fortunately survived.
A grizzled Albert got up from the ground and couldn't help but look behind him.
The scene that entered his eyes made him can't help but gasp, and Quinn, who was slapping the dust on his body, saw Albert's expression, and couldn't help but look in the direction before, and the scene that entered the eyes made this moon elf who had gone through vicissitudes also feel shocked in his heart.
Ten seconds ago, more than eight hundred elven soldiers had gathered on the originally flat ground of this deep pit, and now everything had dissipated, whether it was a warrior with a bow and arrow on guard, or a magician muttering a spell in his mouth, their traces had been completely erased from this world.
And to such a huge pit, there are four more on the periphery of the entire city wall.
The elves on the battlefield did not react to the change in a moment, and the tendons near Kai's Dayang Cave in golden and red robes were 'fluttering', and he forced himself to suppress the anger in his heart, and Kai made a decision that was in line with the current situation.
"Withdraw the troops, recover the vine seeds in the camp, and retreat five kilometers to set up camp again!" The majestic voice spread throughout the battlefield with the effect of magic, and the remaining elven soldiers quickly ran towards the direction of the camp.
Although Stark's expression was still serious when he saw this scene, the subordinates who had been with him for a long time could still know his happy mood from the act of stroking his mustache.
"Command, fire the steel cannonballs until they run the limit of the cannonballs, and let these pointy-eared fellows get back, brave lads!" Stark's majestic voice echoed across the walls for a long time, causing a cheer from the dwarves.
"It's a pity~ Originally, I thought that these elves could occupy the south of the continent, and I thought that they should have the hole cards to resist our magic crystal cannon, but I found that they were so vulnerable, I knew that I should have shelled their camp yesterday, so that at least half of their troops could be solved, what a mistake, a mistake~"
Although Stark said so, it was obvious from the corners of his mouth that he didn't feel remorse in his heart.
"Be on guard in the evening, and as for dinner, I think we can have a feast of honor, for the sake of the great Horn Fort!"
"For the great Fort Horn!"
Kai, who successfully retreated with the steel cannonballs fired non-stop, looked at the demoralized soldiers and couldn't help but sigh, "Let's go and count the losses of our subordinates first, and do a good job of guarding the sentries to avoid those dwarves from sneaking attacks." Later, we will have a meeting to reflect on it, of course, the biggest responsibility lies with me, and I will be responsible for this loss on the royal court's side~"
Kai's expression was a little lonely, and he waved his hand to stop what the people around him wanted to say, and walked towards the residence that had been set up step by step.
Two days later, Rilian's messenger came to the frontline camp and informed Kai of the latest information about the magic crystal cannon, which made the elves present have a bitter face, Kai picked up the magic crystal and observed it carefully, and said to the elven officers present, "It seems that those dwarves haven't used all their strength last time, at least the scope of the huge crater caused by the full force of the magic crystal cannon in the magic crystal image is much more powerful than the one we encountered." "Excuse me, you can rest in the camp, it seems that we will have to wait for Lord Reliant to arrive before we have a good plan to deal with it." “
Five days later, Giggs followed the three-month elven division led by Rilian to Kay's camp.
Giggs, who was supposed to go to the captive camp to continue his work, was ordered by Rilian to follow the battle after receiving news of the heavy losses from Kay.
This made Giggs a little uneasy in his heart, facing that kind of powerful magic crystal cannon on the battlefield? Even if his current physical fitness is already very strong, but under this powerful weapon, Giggs can't think of any way to live.
In this uneasy mind, Giggs had the privilege of attending a meeting that brought together the middle and upper echelons of the five divisions of the Moon Elves.
After entering the conference room, under the gaze of some elves, Giggs looked around, and sat directly on the bottom chair on the right side of the conference room, next to him was a young elf who looked relatively young.
"Well, my name is Giggs and I'm currently an interrogator. Giggs sat for a moment, deciding to make a point to the apparently young guy next to him, at least to know the specifics of the last battle.
Looking at Giggs's outstretched right hand, Albert hesitated for a moment, but still stretched out his right hand under Giggs's partial smile. "I'm Albert, Albert Chasing the Wind~"
"It turns out that Your Excellency's ancestor is a hero with the title of Elven Court ~ Disrespectful ~" Giggs's face suddenly became solemn, showing respect for Albert's ancestor.
"Thank you for the compliment~" Giggs's compliment made Albert can't help but feel good about the human in front of him.
"That's right, Brother Albert, I just wanted to ask what kind of information about the dwarves on the other side of the battlefield at that time, because I was worried that I was about to go to war~" Giggs pretended to be sad and asked Albert.
"Aren't you an interrogator, how can you go to war?" Albert was a little strange about Giggs's concern.
"Mistress Reliant didn't let me go to the captive camp to interrogate those dwarven captives, but brought me here, to be honest, I'm a bit vain, especially after I let the dwarves personally fire an energy cannon~" Giggs replied with some embarrassment.
This answer made Albert couldn't help laughing, remembering his reaction to looking at the giant crater behind him that day, nodded, and recalled the news he knew, "That city should have five magic crystal cannons, because there were five craters with a diameter of 100 meters on the entire ground that day. By the way, do you know what that city is called? Is there any news about that?"
"The city of Leipzig, the city is called the city of Leipzig, I got it from a skinny dwarven captive I caught earlier. Giggs said some of the news he had gotten.
"The city of Leipzig, I remember, this city that has brought me shame~" Albert said angrily, clenching his fists.
"By the way, when those magic crystal cannons fire that kind of steel cannonballs, they will fire three or four shots at a time, because the last time there were definitely more than ten cannonballs flying down from the one-time city~" After thinking about it, Albert said the news he had observed on the battlefield.
"Bursts?" said Giggs nodded thoughtfully.
In thought, Giggs was pulled by Albert's sleeve, and found that everyone in the conference room was standing up, thinking that the meeting was about to begin, and Giggs gave Albert a grateful look.
"First of all, I have to apologize for my arrogance at this meeting, because of my arrogance, I have caused 4,371 valiant Moon Elves to fall forever in this dwarven realm, so the rest of the battle will be commanded by Elder Rylian. After motioning for everyone to sit down, Kai, who was still dressed in a golden and red robe, stood in the original and said these words.
The elves present seemed to have known for a long time, and there was no change in their expressions, after all, the population of the elves was not large, and this kind of loss was just a revocation of the position, or an automatic resignation on the surface, which was already a very bland punishment.
"Then, I will hold this meeting, first of all, our top priority is to take down this dwarf city - Leipzig City~ If you have any suggestions, please feel free to speak. As Rilian sat down, a warm voice echoed through the room.
