Chapter 263: Praise or Sarcasm

On May 24, 1354, Ling Xuan stood on a small hill with his hands crossed, looking at Jie Gen Wall, the sky was very dark, and the drizzle drifted onto Ling Xuan's helmet, and then gathered into small droplets of water on the edge of the helmet and dripped into the armor, from where the cold feeling seeped into the skin. It's not a pleasant feeling to be wet, but it's at least a little cooler than a distant battle.

From that battle, which had destroyed the main forces of both sides, the Wandering Legion and the Djegunvol were at a stalemate, Ling Xuan's army did not have enough force to destroy as many as a thousand dragoons, and the other side did not dare to advance after the total army of the dragon knights was annihilated. If it goes on like this, it is not a good thing for Ling Xuan, the northern trade road that has been built up so hard has come to a standstill, if it weren't for the value of the dragon horns on those flying dragons, as early as a few days ago, Ling Xuan's investment fund would have gone bankrupt. In the long run, not to mention the doubts of Taranvino, even the anger of those Wyton Noll investors could burn Ling Xuan to death.

"Troublesome ......" knocked on the skull, Ling Xuan felt a headache, being a successful businessman is as difficult as being a successful commander, but now Ling Xuan had better find a way to solve the problem in front of him, otherwise the businessman and the commander will not be able to do it.

"My lord!" a thunderous roar rushed into Ling Xuan's ears, without looking back, Ling Xuan knew who was coming, and after a while, Retis with dull steps shook in front of Ling Xuan.

"When to attack!"

In the past few days, this sentence has jumped in Ling Xuan's ears no less than ten times, and Ling Xuan can understand the feelings of most of his companions, but he can't let more lives be thrown into the uncertain battle situation. While sighing at the simple thinking of single-celled organisms, Ling Xuan had to explain again and again: "Editus, you have also seen the current battle situation, Ling Xuan does not have much strength to attack at all, and if they rush forward, I am afraid that even Lin Hai will not be able to pass through!"

Radius puffed out his mouth and looked at Ling Xuan with wide eyes, through his pupil Ling Xuan could see the word "anger", and at the moment he erupted, another voice saved Ling Xuan.

"Lord Farp, Master Decos said there is something important to meet!" Arni shouted loudly from the bottom of the hill with the hoarse guttural voice of a voice-changing teenager.

Ling Xuan hurriedly said to Radius: "I'm sorry, the old fox is looking for Ling Xuan, Ling Xuan wants to take a look." Without waiting for him to react, Ling Xuan hurriedly rushed down the mountain, and behind Ling Xuan, it was Retis who shouted: "My lord, when will you attack!"

"Let's talk about it!" After dropping this word, Ling Xuan had already rushed to Yani's side, Yanni blinked his eyes and looked at Ling Xuan with a confused expression, Ling Xuan hurriedly pulled him, "Don't worry about that Rhettus, where did the old fox see Ling Xuan?"

"Old fox...... It's Mistress Decos, he's meeting you in the council chamber. Arni replied.

"Council Hall, isn't it something strange for Ling Xuan to see. "I really can't bear that Decos's fetish, after Ling Xuan returned to Landinovia, he was pulled to see the so-called novelty weapons at least ten times, but so far, most of them are directly linked to garbage. With this premise, Ling Xuan had to ask a question.

Arni tilted her head and thought for a moment, then said, "No, it was cleaned very clean today, and there wasn't even a piece of waste paper." ”

"That's good......" My heart was a little calm, in this way, it should be that this old fox had a little bit of the consciousness of a military advisor and came up with some good ideas, but before Ling Xuan could speed up his pace, another sentence came out of the young servant's mouth: "But there are a lot of old grandfathers there." ”

"Old ...... Father...... Master ......" A chill rushed up from the soles of his feet, turned his head, and carefully looked at Yanni, who was speaking, compared to last year, he had grown a lot taller, with a set of orange and yellow attendant clothes, he looked quite handsome, and he didn't see the answer Ling Xuan wanted on his white face, until he saw a pair of clear blue eyes. Maybe it was because of his long-term stressful life, Ling Xuan rarely paid attention to this little attendant beside him, but today Ling Xuan suddenly felt that he had grown up a lot and could be a man who stood alone.

"Yanni, do you want to be a general?"

Yani opened his mouth wide and didn't answer for a while, but after a while, a trace of resoluteness flashed from his eyes: "Yes, Lord Fapu, Ling Xuan wants to be a general as good as you!"

"Like Ling Xuan, hehe, then you don't have to, you have to be a general like yourself. Starting tomorrow, you'll report to Ceravizo of the Guard, and start with the squad leader. Remember, you used to be Ling Xuan's attendant, don't lose Ling Xuan's face outside!"

In an instant, Ling Xuan made such a decision, Arni's name could not end with "Fapu's squire", in Ling Xuan's opinion, he could grow into an excellent commander, just like General Lambis looked at Ling Xuan back then.

"Yes, Master Fap!" Straightening up, Arni replied to Ling Xuan in an unusually powerful voice, his eyes shining brightly.

"Oops, let's hurry up, old fox, I don't know who I've brought to the council chamber. Patting his head, Ling Xuan hurriedly stepped on the road to the council hall, no matter how he said it, don't offend the old fox, now Ling Xuan has enough troubles, he doesn't want to add more......

De Cos sat leisurely in the hall with a teacup, and around him, in addition to a few officers such as Melchior, there were more than a dozen people sitting or standing, and their gray hair was shaking there, giving Ling Xuan the illusion of stepping into an old people's home. However, after losing his mind for a moment, Ling Xuan quickly saw clearly who was inside, the Thirteen Elders who were driven away by the Legavor and the First Dragon General Kshatriya who disappeared without even making a sound!

"How...... How can you ......" Pointing at these old grandfathers, Ling Xuan was speechless for a while.

De Cos stood up with a smile, and then said to the Thirteen Elders and Kshatriyas, "You see, the commanders of the Ling Xuan Clans couldn't even speak when they saw that you were so excited. ”

"How did you get here!" Barely swallowing the astonishment into his stomach, Ling Xuan ignored Decos and asked unceremoniously.

After a trace of embarrassment lingering in the hall, Nanda, the chief of the Thirteen Elders, broke the stiffness: "Ling Xuan fled all the way from Lin Hai, if it wasn't for the Kshatriya general's efforts to defend it, Ling Xuan would have died at the hands of the rebels." ”

I had to keep my eyes on the body of the first dragon general who was sitting silently on the side, the armor on his body was tattered, there were at least hundreds of cracks, and his hair was stuck together. The most powerful dragon general in this legend now seems to be no different from the down-and-out old beggar, the only difference is that there is still a hint of sharpness in his eyes. Although I don't like this old man who exudes the aura of the underworld too much, I don't have the slightest doubt about his martial arts Ling Xuan, after all, I have seen the power of the second and third ranking, and being able to surpass those monsters is an admirable thing in itself.

Now, all of the former superiors of the Djegunvol were gathered here, and the first thought that flashed through Ling Xuan's mind was that this was the opportunity, a perfect opportunity to solve the annoying war with the Djegunwal!

How could the old fox on the side not see Ling Xuan's intentions, after showing an intriguing smile, he walked to Ling Xuan's side and whispered in Ling Xuan's ear: "Fa Pu, there are more than a hundred people in total, most of them are guards of the House of Elders, and they can basically top a squadron of dragoons." ”

As soon as he heard this, Ling Xuan immediately put on a smile: "Elder Nantuo, you have worked hard all the way, here, Ling Xuan will do his best to protect the safety of all the elders." ”

Nanda nodded with satisfaction: "It is worthy of being the fourth dragon general, now it seems that except for the Kshatriya general, he can only rely on you." ”

"Thank you Elder Nanda for your kindness. "Ling Xuan is really a guy who sees the wind and rudder, from the time he entered the door to the present, he has completed a one hundred and eighty degree transformation, and in the blink of an eye, Ling Xuan and the old ruler of Tegunvol are like a family. However, only in this way could Ling Xuan reach some cooperative relationship with them, after all, the battle with the dragoons, relying on the current wandering regiment, the losses were too great.

After the nourishing opening, Ling Xuan quickly got to the point, and in the council hall of Landinavia, a bunch of gray hairs gathered in front of the huge map.

"On the front line here, there is the main force of the hoarding dragoons, about two brigades, relying on the current military strength of Ling Xuan's army, it is difficult to break through; even if it can, in the area of Dragon Guardian City, it is here, there is also a brigade of dragoons and newly recruited slave cavalry after leaving the car, the total strength is about two thousand, although it is not much, but if you stick to the city, Ling Xuan will need at least 10,000 people to be sure of capturing, and the total number of troops that Ling Xuan's army can use so far is less than six thousand......"

It was Melchior who introduced the battle situation, this bit of information had already sacrificed Ling Xuanfang's six outstanding scouts, and in the face of the powerful dragoons, there were few scouts who could stay for three days without dying.

The elders who shook their heads for a while were speechless for a moment after Melchior's speech, and Ling Xuan, who was standing on the side, could clearly see the disappointment on their faces. In fact, you don't have to think about it to know that these elders must have been hiding in the forest sea after being expelled, and they only hurried over from there after hearing that Ling Xuan had eliminated the Dragon Knight Squadron and the Third Dragon General, and they were more or less counting on Ling Xuan to help them restore their orthodox position. It's a pity that most of that sneak attack was due to luck, as well as the carelessness of the third dragon general, otherwise, Ling Xuan wouldn't be standing here talking now.

"As the fourth dragon general, I want to get justice for Tegunvol no matter what, and I must not let Xiao Xiao steal the orthodox position. ”

After this righteous and awe-inspiring speech, Ling Xuan's tone changed, "However, the elders should also be considerate of the current difficulties of the Wandering Legion, in order to deal with Wyton Noor, it is impossible for Ling Xuan to throw all their forces on the front line of the Tergentwall, and at present, Ling Xuan's men and horses are too scarce, and their equipment is only a little better than that of the Peasant Army." ”

After a while of whispering among the elders, Yu Nanda spoke: "Of course, this Ling Xuan can understand that if General Indra lacks funds and equipment, Ling Xuan still has a secret deposit in the Taranvino Chamber of Commerce, which is worth about 100,000 gold coins, and for the rest, only the escort team following Ling Xuan can help you." ”

A trace of disappointment flashed in his heart, 100,000 gold coins, a dignified Great Saint Country, with only such a small amount of funds, it is no wonder that the people outside laughed at the Tegunvol people for being babies lying in the arms of the Holy Dragon, but that team of guards was of great use, at least Ling Xuan's scout candidates would not have such a headache as they did now. Squeezing out a smile on his face, Ling Xuan nodded again and again: "Ling Xuan is deeply admired by the elders for their righteousness, in order to live up to your expectations, Ling Xuan will definitely send troops as soon as possible to eliminate the rebels!"

The elders' eyes flashed with dazzling brilliance, with a little moving cry, Nanda clasped Ling Xuan's hand and said repeatedly, "Everything is up to Your Excellency Indra." ”

Feeling the abrupt green tendons on Elder Nanda's hands, a trace of shame suddenly surfaced in Ling Xuan's heart, the current Ling Xuan really wanted to take advantage of the old man, but this trace of shame was quickly thrown out of the clouds by Ling Xuan, in order to achieve the goal, Ling Xuan should not have too many emotions. Turning his head away, avoiding the scorching gaze of Elder Nanda, Ling Xuan shouted, "Go and prepare the room for the elders to rest!"

"Yes!" The attendants outside the door rushed in after a sound of peace, and each led the elders out of the hall, but the Kshatriya general did not move his footsteps, under the messy hair, those red eyes stared at Ling Xuan, that feeling, as if he wanted to see through Ling Xuan.

"What else is going on with Elder Kshatriya?" Ling Xuan asked with a burst of hair in his heart, still stubbornly.

Kshatriya stood up, brushed the messy hair of his sideburns with both hands, and revealed his entire old face in front of Ling Xuan, his unique hoarse voice rang out: "Ahem, it seems that the Holy Dragon really didn't see the wrong person back then, today's Fourth Dragon General is already the hero who saved the Djegunvol, and it won't be long before Ling Xuan's old bone can give way." ”

In the face of General Kshatriya's "praise", Ling Xuan couldn't help but blush no matter how good his kung fu cultivation was, and then muttered: "

Lord Kshatriya had won the prize, and Ling Xuan was just doing his part. ”

Kshatriya looked at Ling Xuan for a while, his eyes flickered, and after a while, he sighed heavily, and a sense of frustration enveloped his eyes: "Ahem, I didn't expect you to kill Dandra, this kid was also an outstanding talent back then, but his wisdom has regressed with age, and he also brought so many dragon knights to accompany him." Ay...... The revival of Djegunvor has allowed the dragon's footsteps to travel across the continent, and this dream is really getting more and more distant. ”

Even the fool could hear the meaning of his words, and even if he didn't take part in this rebellion, it must have happened with his connivance. The officers next to him all changed their faces, grabbed their weapons one after another, and carefully moved their steps to surround the Kshatriyas. Ling Xuan didn't move, if this old man wanted to make a move, Ling Xuan should have died as soon as he entered the door, and looking at his eyes, he was not afraid of the many generals surrounding him at all.

"Hehe, Kshatriya, you're getting old, too. Decos, who was leisurely drinking tea on the side, laughed, then put down his teacup and stood up, resting one hand naturally on a strange iron rod resting on the coffee table.

Kshatriya turned his head, glanced at Decos with interest, and smiled, his face full of wrinkles became more and more wrinkled, looking more ugly than crying: "Ahem, yes, Ling Xuan is old, and he no longer has the courage to fight and kill." I wanted to see what the juniors were capable of, but now it seems that there is no hope. ”

"Actually, it's not bad to change people, look at Ling Xuan's Fapu, he can be regarded as a dragon general, although he is a bit idiotic, but compared to that big old man, he has to have a future. De Cos continued, his hand retracted, then he picked up his beloved teacup, blew it, and tasted it with a look of enjoyment, but in Ling Xuan's sight, the old fox's eyes never left Kshatriya.

Kshatriya turned his head, looked at Ling Xuan with deep meaning, and nodded: "Ahem, yes, if there was half as smart as Indra when leaving the car, the situation would not have turned out like this." Perhaps, the revival of Tegunvor will come from your hands. ”

Ling Xuan was terrified, this Decos, how many times did he want to sell Ling Xuan to be happy, what is the future of the Jegong Wall...... The revival of Yarufasil has already given Ling Xuan a headache, and if there is a dragon future, what will Ling Xuan do! Next time, should you let Ling Xuan take the entire continent into his hands. But now, Ling Xuan couldn't say these words, not to mention that Decos's eyes were full of hints, a temptation of "this is a good opportunity, hurry up and say yes", even Kshatriya's eyes became strange, looking at Ling Xuan as if he was looking at the future of Gergenwall. In this case, Ling Xuan said the word "no", and today's meeting hall would be about a sea of corpses and blood.

"Ling Xuan knows. After thinking about it for a long time, Ling Xuan spit out such a simulated answer, I know, it doesn't mean that Ling Xuan will do it.

"Look, Ling Xuan's commanders have also come to their senses, and now they can go back to sleep with peace of mind, maybe there will be a good result today next year. De Cos pumped his mouth as he signaled to the attendant next to him to quickly pull the man away.

Without the warm invitation of the attendants, Kshatriya waved his hand, and then walked to Ling Xuan's side: "Ahem, Indra, before Ling Xuan pins his hopes on you, Ling Xuan wants to see someone and listen to his opinion. ”

Ling Xuan blinked, quickly knew the answer, and then nodded: "Ling Xuan will take you there, he must be in that place." ”

......

Hundreds of new trees in the cemetery have planted a cherry blossom on the grave, white with a hint of blood, this is a flower that blooms in the depths of the forest, there is a nice name "Huai Sakura", it is said that under each "Huai Sakura" there is a corpse of a martyred Legon warrior.

"Huai Ying" and "Huaiying", somewhat with a bit of desolate remembrance, Ling Xuan's heart twitched again, the people buried here are all the people who came out of the forest sea, that stream, that sea of fire, until now it is still echoing in Ling Xuan's mind for a long time.

Elder Sharli stood in front of the grave with his body bent, his eyes open for a long time, as if he was looking at the endless illusion. The late spring wind had already brought a little bit of heat, but as soon as it swept past Elder Chaerli's side, it made people feel a chill.

Kshatriya took a few steps and stood next to Shalli, with similar faces and similar figures, if it weren't for the different clothes, it would be difficult to distinguish between the two old men. This is the twins, the legendary people who share the same soul.

Neither of them spoke, silently staring at the large cemetery, the drizzle still drifting in the sky, and the gloomy sky seemed to swallow everything up.

"Ahem, don't you regret it, give your people to strangers, and bury them in a foreign land. Kshatriya asked suddenly.

Elder Sharli was silent for a moment, then replied, "Don't ask Ling Xuan this question, go ask the children who are sleeping underground." However, Ling Xuan thought that they would not regret it, Ling Xuan was an outcast and was always looking for an opportunity to prove his worth. Now that they have found it, it also proves that Ling Xuan is happy for them. ”

"Ahem, is the so-called value a short-lived battle?"

"Life is inherently short, and although it is a blessing to live a life of inaction, it is more suitable for the blood of dragons to bloom gorgeous flowers before life is gone. ”

Kshatriya blinked his eyes, and after a long exhale, he said, "That's it...... Ahem, Sarri, no, I should call you brother, what kind of future will you choose?"

"Ling Xuan?" "Sarri's eyes dimmed, "Bear the charge of martyrdom for his own people, and continue to live until one day he will never be able to open his eyes again." Before that, Ling Xuan wanted to take a good look at the path of the person who was entrusted by Ling Xuan to hope. ”

After speaking, his eyes drifted to Ling Xuan to the side, full of deep meaning.

Kshatriya also looked at Ling Xuan, his wrinkled face became more and more wrinkled, Ling Xuan could barely tell that he was laughing, and he was very happy: "Ahem, since the other half of Ling Xuan's soul has already made a choice, Ling Xuan has also made his own choice." Fap, from today onwards, Ling Xuan, the first dragon general of the Djegunvol, will fully support you. Even if you go to war with the entire continent, Ling Xuan will be on your side. ”

Ling Xuan shook his head, feeling a little dizzy, is this the words that came out of the mouth of this gloomy old man, if it weren't for the accompanying sound of coughing, Ling Xuan couldn't believe that this was true, in a semi-demented state, Ling Xuan muttered, "Know...... Got it......"

"This time next year, it's cherry blossom season again. Elder Sharli, who was on the side, slowly spat out these words in a deep voice, as if to foreshadow something. The current Ling Xuan had no way to understand at all, and in Ling Xuan's mind, he had already begun to think about how to make good use of the Kshatriyas' power, strive to break the defense line of the dragoons in one fell swoop, and then control the great plan of the entire Djegunvol.

......

After settling down the fugitive "dignitaries" of the Tegunvol, it was soon in June. This year's summer seems to have come a little earlier than usual, and after dozens of days of rain, as soon as the sun peeks out of the clouds, it will sprinkle the scorching sun, and it has the momentum of roasting the whole earth in one go.

It was in this sweltering heat that Ling Xuan had to snuggle up in a small room, frowning and listening to the news from the front-line scouts who had been transformed from those guards of the Elder's House.

"There are enemy squads assembled in the east and thirty-six miles in the south. Melchior picked up a note and read it, and the attendant next to him hurriedly marked a red dot on the big map, and in just one morning, within the range of Lin Hai, it was full of red dots where the enemy had gathered, and it looked denser than the stars in the sky.

"The dragoons of the two brigades have been split into dozens of squads, and the largest group does not exceed twenty people, what is the enemy trying to do?" Unable to guess the thoughts in Liche's mind for a while, Ling Xuan raised his head and looked at Decos on the side.

Before the old fox could put down the teacup, Retis on the side suddenly got up, opened his voice and said loudly: "What's wrong with that, kill the enemies one by one, and kill one less anyway." What else is there to think about, hurry up and start the war!"

"Yes, but the other party is not a fool, it is clear that he doesn't want to face Ling Xuan head-on, if he plays a game of hide and seek in Lin Hai, Ling Xuan will not be able to destroy the enemy in the spring of next year. Decos exclaimed.

Rhettus's mouth opened wide, his tongue stammered for a while, his face flushed, and it took him a long time to come up with a defensible answer: "Then go directly to Djegunvor, kill the biggest lizard, and there will be nothing!"

"It's a pity that Ling Xuan's people are still four thousand people away, and they can't transport large siege equipment through Lin Hai, so naturally they can't capture the opponent's city in one go. Still with that laid-back look, De Cos then nodded, "That brute-like guy can't imagine that he is really a little clever, but what good will it do him if he drags it out like this?"

"This doesn't work, that doesn't work, what the hell are you going to do!" Rhettus ripped open his collar and slapped his palm on the table, until he heard a crunch, and a palm-sized piece of the map on the table was missing. If it had been someone else, he would have blasted out this guy who wantonly disturbed the atmosphere of the venue, but the people in the Wandering Corps were not surprised, and not many people paid attention to him, and many people frowned and stared at the map that had been mutilated.

"Huh-" De Cos suddenly let out a strange exclamation, then stood up and swiped the map a few times, as if trying to make the handwriting on the map clearer, following his gaze, Ling Xuan saw the missing place, which should have been marked with a forest between Tegunvol and Landinovia.

"If that's the case, you can try it when you get there. De Cos rolled his eyes and muttered, the people near him were all looking at the military advisor of the wandering regiment with strange eyes, and Ling Xuan's heart couldn't help twitching, what does this guy want to do? Before Ling Xuan could figure out De Cos's thoughts, he suddenly looked directly at Ling Xuan, and then spoke: "Fa Pu, Ling Xuan, let's flatten Lin Hai, and then make a sunny avenue out." ”

"Ahh......h Strategist, what the hell are you trying to say?"

"Anyway, the Holy Dragon has also ascended to heaven, and the original inviolable meaning of Lin Hai is also gone, and it is a cost-effective thing to clear the barrier between Landinovia and Tegunvol, so as to make the future business road smoother. Decos smirked, the whisker on his lips slightly upturned, looking more like an old fox.

"How much gold and manpower will it cost!" Before Ling Xuan could react, Magula shouted out in a lost voice, "Decos, you must know that up to now, the entire Landinovia has a deficit, a deficit! Ling Xuan has already taken on a debt of nearly 300,000 gold coins. What's more, those dragoons are idiots, watching Ling Xuan raze Lin Hai?"

"The problem of money, the businessman is not an idiot, since he has already invested money, in case Ling Xuan collapses, it will not be good for them, it is not impossible to borrow a little more appropriately, as a last resort, just say that once Ling Xuan wins, he will give preferential supply to the dragon horns of Jiegong Wall, which is a big profit. As for the other party's sneak attack, Ling Xuan had a squadron of Elders' House guards, how could they deal with a small group of dragoons; if they started a large-scale joint battle, anyway, Ling Xuan also had the strength of the first dragon general, so they were not afraid of the other party's second dragon general, as for the rest of the miscellaneous soldiers, they were all people who had fought for so many years, Ling Xuan didn't think it would be difficult to deal with. Decos became more and more proud, and assumed that he had the whole of Djegunvor in his hands.

"My lord......" Melchior turned his head to Ling Xuan's side, his eyes full of the meaning of inquiry, the current situation was easy to make Ling Xuan's military advisors crazy because of too much pressure.

However, through Decos's eyes, Ling Xuan knew that he was not all talking big. After Ling Xuan pondered for a moment, he drew his scimitar from his waist and slashed at the broken map: "Raze Lin Hai to Ling Xuan!"

The surrounding officers were all surprised, and after looking at each other, they all nodded: "Yes, my lord!"

On June 3, the military headquarters of the Wandering Corps issued instructions to cut down trees in the forest, and a total of 11,000 people, including the temporarily recruited migrant workers, marched to the edge of the forest. The Liaison Office of the Wandering Corps in the city of Landinovia put out a notice of "pre-order high-quality dragon horns" early, and the business of selling possible future products was in full swing. For a time, the originally deserted liaison office was full of traffic, and a large number of businessmen came to negotiate matters, and there was a tendency to fight for the head to provide funds for the Wandering Corps.

On the other hand, the historians who lived in their own little world invariably picked up the pen to criticize Ling Xuan's actions," ...... For his own selfish interests, he cut down a thousand-year-old tree, and if the Holy Dragon knows it, he will regret the promotion that day......"

Names such as "Fa Pu the Saboteur", "Fa Pu, the Enemy of Nature", and so on rained down on Ling Xuan's head. Under these circumstances, the pioneer troops cut down more than 10,000 ancient trees in several days, and marched with great determination towards the holy city of Tegunvor...... Standing on the hill, Ling Xuan looked down, countless tents were connected together, and hundreds of cooking smoke rose up, forming a magnificent pattern. In the distance, there was a crowd of people wriggling like ant colonies, the clear trumpets rushing into Ling Xuan's ears through the early morning mist, and the forest sea that was originally connected gradually sunk in this majestic shout.

"It looks like by the end of the summer, the road is almost open. Decos, who was squatting beside Ling Xuan, said proudly.

Ling Xuan glared at him angrily, this military advisor could really maintain a leisurely posture at any time, the dragoons had been moving frequently recently, and the originally scattered detachments had begun to gather. Yesterday, a squad of about 30 dragoons also tentatively attacked Ling Xuan's labor army, although they were repulsed, but the impact on ordinary migrant workers was still relatively huge, and more than 1,000 people left overnight. In the long run, the number of people who can be used to cut down trees will be reduced by half, and in order to prevent a large-scale attack by the dragoons, another half of the manpower will have to be reduced for defense. Just by using simple reasoning, you can calculate that next year's day may not be able to get through Lin Hai.

"Strategist, according to this progress, Ling Xuan sees no difference from fighting a long-term battle. As long as the other party continued to harass them, Ling Xuan would have to wait until next summer to see the walls of the Jegunwall. Having to sigh like this, Ling Xuan reminded Decos, who was still intoxicated by Ling Xuan's fantasy.

De Cos didn't pay attention to Ling Xuan's sarcasm, just stood up, made a movement to relax his muscles, and then looked at the fiery red sun in the distance: "Oops, it's another hot day, it's only early summer, and this summer is really the season to make people angry." But there is no way, if you are in a hurry, the false fire rises, I am afraid it will be even more sad, and if you are quiet, you will naturally feel cool. ”

Ling Xuan blinked, catching a hint of inspiration in his mind: "Are you saying that if Ling Xuan makes plans for a long-term battle, the enemy will not be able to help but make a move?"

"This, Ling Xuan doesn't know very well, but people, a little bit of foresight, if it starts, the plain below is more suitable for dragoons than in the defense of the city. Decos grinned.

Following his hand, Ling Xuan looked at the plain under the hill again, the invasion began here a few months ago, and the troops stationed here at that time were all wiped out without even having a chance to resist, and further down, it was a rolling hilly area, which was not suitable for the deployment of cavalry.

"If it's Ling Xuan, in the unlikely future, it's better to mobilize troops for a general decisive battle, relying on the advantage of the plains, and eliminate the opponent's living forces as much as possible. When the time comes, not to mention a month, it will give Ling Xuan a year or ten years, and Ling Xuan will not have so much labor to drive the road to the feet of the Tergent Wall. ”

Suddenly, Ling Xuan understood the ghost idea of De Cos's fight, and now for Ling Xuan, a protracted war can only be related to disadvantage, and the enemy may also be aware of this, so he will make such an arrangement. However, if Ling Xuan's large-scale activities of cutting down the forest sea showed that Ling Xuan was prepared for a long-term battle, the other party's response would also change accordingly. After all, if Ling Xuan was allowed to build the road to the city of Tegunvol, and then rely on large siege equipment, the opponent with only cavalry would have to face an absolute disadvantage in numbers. Rather than this, it is better to rely on the strong impact of the dragoons and have a decisive battle with Ling Xuan.

In this way, regardless of whether Ling Xuan can win this war or not, but in terms of time, compressing a long battle into the foreseeable future can be regarded as the best result for the current Landinovia, Ling Xuan had to sigh: "You are really a treacherous and cunning guy......"

"Can a thief-turned-military advisor not be cunning? Decos smirked.

There is such a military division, and I don't know if it is the luck or bad luck of the wandering army, but in De Cos's smiling face, Ling Xuan still sees a little problem: "However, if Ling Xuan takes precautions, will the enemy give up this plan because the cost of the attack is too high, in this case, it will still be unfavorable to Ling Xuan." ”

"Yes, what about the dragoons, they don't have much power on the mountain, so naturally they won't rush up to fight Ling Xuan's people, but if you put the battlefield at the bottom of the mountain, maybe the other party will have an impulse, and then you will have the opportunity to break off with them. De Cos stroked his beard with a look of what was so difficult.

"Mountain......" Ling Xuan said to himself, putting the battlefield in a place that is beneficial to the enemy, there are only two kinds of people who do this kind of thing, one is that they have absolute superiority and despise the other party at all, and the other is stupid.

Seeing the doubt in Ling Xuan's eyes, De Cos continued: "Actually, the advantage of the terrain is also relative, as long as you find a way to slow down the impact of the dragoons, everything will be easy. In any case, this battle must be fought first. ”

Ling Xuan gradually had a vague concept in his mind, delaying the impact of the dragoons on the plain, if it was before, it might be a little more difficult, but now......

"It seems that we must make good use of those muskets, put the battlefield on the plains, and do this way, and fight this battle anyway, after all, this battle is related to the fate of Arufasil, Landinovia and Tegunvor. ”

"As a commander, you have the courage to take Ling Xuan's advice, Fap, you are probably the first!" Decos let out a sigh.

Ling Xuan grabbed his hair and responded with a smirk: "You have won the prize." ”

"I really don't know if I should call you stupid, or something else, with a boss like you, it's really a sin that Ling Xuan did in his previous life. ”

Shaking his head, De Cos let out a long sigh and threw Ling Xuan into the bottomless abyss, "But compared to anyone else, it's still happier to be your subordinate for the time being, at least not that feeling of being a companion like a tiger." ”

"Is this a compliment, or is it sarcasm?"

"I want to go myself, but now you'd better clean up your little head, calculate when Ling Xuan's departure will be patient, and then think about how to deal with the thousands of dragoons." That's the end of the duties of being a military advisor, and if you go any further, you will be overworked. De Cos made a stretch and walked down the hill.

Leaving the car, those fragments of the dragon general being tested appeared in Ling Xuan's mind, the guy who was not even afraid of a direct attack with a musket looked more like a stupid person, but hidden under that rough appearance, maybe
