Chapter 459: Mournful War
readx;
It's just that, although I am anxious to recuperate from the serious injuries in my meridians, I also desperately hope that Filia and the others will have a good rest. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info However, it is clear that it cannot be achieved now. In the direction of the courtyard gate, Hans's voice kept coming: "It's been five days, hasn't Elder Long finished his work yet?" Today, you should be able to let me in and have a look, right?"
"The master is practicing, and at this time, even if the sky falls, he must not be disturbed. Isabella's voice was firm: "So, I really can't let you in. If you interrupt your master's practice or even hurt your master, then even if the masters don't blame us, we will commit suicide and apologize. ”
"What kind of kung fu is Captain Long practicing, doesn't he need to rest for five days of practice?" Hans said anxiously: "Can you help me report, I really have something urgent!"
"We don't know what kind of kung fu the master is doing, only that something seems to be wrong, which is why the master and the mother are so nervous and refuse all visitors. Your Lord, please come back, and once the master wakes up, we will report to the Lord immediately. Isabella replied calmly.
"Something went wrong?" Hans was shocked, "Then I should be allowed to go in and have a look, although my strength is nothing, but decades of experience, maybe I can help a little." ”
"No need. Isabella shook her head and said, "The master's cultivation is unfathomable, completely different from other fighting qi martial arts, except for a few master mothers, no one can help. ”
"Go and invite him in!" I sighed and turned to Camila.
Watching Camilla leave, Filia frowned and said, "In the past few days, Lord Hans has been coming three or four times a day, but he has been stopped by Brother Roger and Sister-in-law Bella. I heard that the army outside the territory is starting to approach. ”
I shook my head, intent on escaping the dispute between the Dark Council and the Holy See, but I didn't realize that I was finally involved. Alliance City is the closest city to the Empire's key point among the eight major territories, which is of course because of the strength of the Alliance City, but in this situation, it has become a threshold that several rebel territories must conquer to attack the Council. Of course, if the parliament sends troops, it will inevitably pass through here.
Hans soon came in, and in a few days, his spirit was much better again, and it was obvious that his cultivation had improved again. Just breaking through the bottleneck is like that, almost every day can give people a new feeling. However, once it settles down, there is little progress.
"Elder Long, I heard that there is something wrong with your practice, I don't know ......" After a brief greeting, Hans asked cautiously.
"It's just an attempt, and I don't want to seriously injure my meridians. I smiled wryly.
"Elder Long is injured?" Hans was shocked when he noticed the shocking blood stains on my chest, and hurriedly asked, "How is the injury?"
"The injury is not too serious, and it will be fine for ten days and half a month. I smiled bitterly again: "It's just that I'm afraid I won't be able to move my true anger for the time being." ”
"Ten days and half a month?" Hans was stunned, such a result really surprised his imagination, so that he did not hear the suppressed chuckle of Feng'er behind me. With the innate true qi and the heaven and earth vitality in place, the internal injuries that take me ten days and half a month to recover from are long enough to kill me. The injury is serious now, but after a day or two of pranayama, it will be fine.
I glared at Feng'er fiercely, the reason why I said this was that I didn't want to get too involved in the affairs of the alliance mercenary group. If you want to help, just do it yourself, and you can also see the ability of Hans, the lord. After all, as a lord, it is definitely not a good thing to turn to people for everything. However, if I had been in Hans's position, perhaps I would have considered asking for help. After all, if they can retreat without a fight, it will definitely be a good thing for the Alliance Mercenary Group.
"I don't know how the military situation ahead has changed in the past few days?" I couldn't help but laugh at Hans's stunned look, as if he was the one who was injured. Still, to save time, asked.
"Three days ago, their army had been assembled and began to advance step by step. The Alliance Leaders are not a small place, but there are only five cities that really have military power, including Alliance City, and we don't want to engage in a large-scale field battle with them. So, in three days, they have approached fifty kilometers. Speaking of the things ahead, Hans couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Then how are you going to fight the enemy?" I asked curiously. Although I didn't study much of the military, I knew that defending a city was definitely not a good thing. The upper army attacked the enemy on the road, the middle army fought a decisive battle in the field, and the lower army was trapped in the city, although the defense of the city had a geographical advantage, but it had lost in morale and mobility.
"According to our intelligence, the coalition forces in the four territories are probably more than 150,000, and with the strength of our alliance, although the number of troops that can be mobilized is only about 50,000, but considering the existence of elven archers and orcs, there will not be much difference in combat effectiveness. However, if there is a big decisive battle, if nothing else, the possible casualties alone will be too much for us to bear. Therefore, I intend to take advantage of the advantages of the city wall in front of me to concentrate on blocking the enemy. Hans was clearly prepared.
"And have you ever wondered how the orcs reacted to this decision?" I frowned. Undoubtedly, Hans chose the dumbest way to deal with the enemy. Elves and Terrans may be fine, but the Orcs have always been brave and warlike, and it is impossible for them to be kept in the city.
"Huh?!" my question lifted Hans's spirits, and there was no doubt that it was a problem, but it was clearly not unthinkable to him. "Although orc warriors are irascible and not easy to command, they are very particular about strength and bloodline. Take the Minotaurs, who are the most numerical and combat-ready in the Alliance, and with Sit's leadership, they can become the most disciplined soldiers. And this time, the addition of several orc nobles made things much easier this time. ”
"I see. I nodded and said, "I really don't know anything about military affairs, so I can't get involved." However, it is not difficult to deal with a group of ragtag armies dominated by thieves with a strong force of the three clans. I am here to wish Captain Hans a triumphant return. ”
Hans was stunned again, and this was certainly not a satisfactory result. This time, he simply hoped to use the power of my Bird of Paradise and the other Nine-Tailed Holy Fox to directly scare off those rebel armies and maintain the peace of the Alliance Leader. However, now that I was not only injured, I didn't seem to realize it at all, and he was suddenly in trouble. You can't let a wounded man rush to the front line to face an army of 150,000, and besides, this is not a member of the Alliance Mercenary Regiment.
Sending away Hans, who was full of distress, Filia said suspiciously: "Xiaotian, why don't you help the alliance mercenary group solve this problem? "If she thinks about it, in the face of the two holy beasts, no one knows what to choose.
"Even if I take two holy beasts to attack, I'm afraid that this battle will have to be fought!" I sighed and said, "Although nominally, these four territories are rebellions, but in fact, they are all inclined to the Holy See, and religious disputes have always been cruel and unreasonable. Even if they don't send troops, the empire ruled by the Dark Council and the Mercenary Guild will definitely hold them accountable. So, this time they're just desperate. Only by defeating the Alliance Leader will they have a chance to unite and intercept the Parliament's army. Otherwise, they would not even have a chance to fight the Empire. ”
"What's the difference then, can you not be afraid of the holy beast if you try your best?" Melina said strangely.
"It's not that you don't have scruples, but you can't scruples. I shook my head and said, "How can they not fight with all their might?"
"So, even if they know they can't beat it, they can only fight?" said Filia quietly.
"Yes, apart from defeating the Alliance Leader, their only option is to leave as soon as possible before the Empire can gather a large army. However, in this case, their situation will be the same as that of the orcs who left the Terran continent in the first place. I sighed.
"Is it because of this that we are going to sit back and watch the Alliance engage in a sad decisive battle with them?" Melina was a little anxious.
"Of course not. I chuckled and said, "I'm just telling you that unless you want to completely defeat the 150,000 army on the opposite side, you shouldn't show up on the battlefield with two holy beasts." Besides, the prestige of the Alliance Mercenary Group was created by themselves, and we didn't help them fight it. If I can help this time, can I help in the future? What will happen next is the holy war between the Nikolasha Empire and the Holy See, do I still have to protect the alliance leader for the rest of my life?"
"Do you want the Alliance Mercenary Group to take the initiative to give up this territory?" Qin Si's eyes lit up and she said suddenly.
"Now, the best option for the Alliance Mercenary Group is to give up this territory and leave this empire that is about to be involved in the war. I nodded, "It's a pity that it's not easy to give up such a large territory, and no one in the alliance mercenary group has that much courage." So, I still have to help him get through this difficult time first. ”
"And what are you going to do?" said Filia concernedly.
"Of course, it's the threat of force to make the 150,000 allied troops in the four major territories retreat!" I said easily. "This is the last thing I do for the Alliance Leader. ”
Melina was puzzled, just now she said that it was impossible for the coalition forces to retreat, but now she said that she would threaten with force, what did she mean? However, Filia stopped her from continuing to ask, and seeing the compassion on the eldest sister's face, she seemed to understand something, and fell silent.
"None of that should be a concern right now, though. I smiled and said, "Now, what everyone needs most is to take a comfortable hot shower and get a good night's sleep, I don't want my women to be like pandas." ”
"What is a panda?" the girls asked in unison, reminding me that this was not Earth. It's just that Feng'er and Xiao Yu, who knew what was going on, as well as the elf Fei'er, were already secretly laughing on the side.
"Panda?" I said, "It's a magical animal, covered in black and white, it's a national treasure of my motherland, and it has a great characteristic." ”
"National treasure?" Niya said curiously, "Since it can be called a national treasure, then this panda must be very powerful, right? Could it be a holy beast?
I laughed and said, "There are no holy beasts in my motherland, pandas, just like you now, all have black circles under your eyes." ”
"Well, he's laughing at us, sisters, heh. When I realized this, the women looked at each other and smiled, and Philia greeted me, and they all rushed towards me. Pity me for an injury, I can only be bullied by them.
After a comfortable hot bath, I let the women go to rest, and I hugged Felia and began to breathe silently. At the same time, I solved two big problems in cultivation, and I was still excited and couldn't sleep. I can almost be sure that the realm of Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi formation is the strongest realm, and when the time comes, if I can use it freely, even the so-called gods on those continents will definitely not be my opponents. It's just that, with my current cultivation, unless I want to give up the human form, the time for the formation of the realm is still far away.
So, in comparison, the mystery of the dragon's body makes me look forward to it even more. After transformation, even the meridians can be strengthened several times, and the result is really amazing. If I use the body of the divine dragon to cultivate, wouldn't my cultivation speed be several times faster than now? It's a pity that the existence of the divine dragon power makes me only think about it now, and the separation from the vitality of heaven and earth makes it impossible for me to cultivate the body of the divine dragon at all now. Even, after the dragon crystal stabilized, my dragon power had stopped, so it was no wonder that I couldn't grow in the state of the dragon body.
"What are you thinking?" After a while, when I woke up from a big week, I found that Filia in my arms was still looking at me with her eyes wide open.
"If only there weren't so many troubles!" said Philia quietly. "I know, you don't want to get involved in war, and you don't like killing. However, every time you have to kill you, this time will be no exception. Those coalition soldiers ......"
