The enemy is in the dark, and I am in the light. 【】There is a serious lack of specific information about the enemy, and the hilly terrain on the enemy's territory is very unfavorable for cavalry or catapults. The key question is, how dare these bandits fight the regular army? This can be said to be Kevin's surprise.

Regardless of the outcome of this battle, even if it is a real bandit, the strength of the bandits will defeat the expedition this time. The Knights of Thunder must be disgraced by this, and at the same time, it is equivalent to the disgrace of the regular army of Lou Paule, which must be the disgrace of sending a more powerful army. When the time comes, pull seven or eight great magisters, a dozen sword masters, and drive into an army of millions, even if you don't use the forbidden spell, it will be enough to raze the entire Kaludia Hills to the ground, or even dig eight feet into the ground.

The era is already the age of great magic, and the armies of the Wisdom Clan can set foot in most areas of the continent if they want to. Not to mention the territory of mid- and low-level demonic beasts, even high-level demonic beasts can only flee from the wind. The reason why places like the Kaludia Hills still exist is just to ensure some pristine ecology.

Kevin considered to the bandits that if he was the leader of the bandits and learned that a regular army was coming in, then the most appropriate way would be to cut off his arm. Just find a few people who usually don't like the eye to go out and fight them, which is considered to be sent to death. Others hide well. In this way, when the regular army catches someone, they also have an explanation, and they can't find anyone else, which means that the mission has been completed and they have left successfully.

If this kind of death strategy is spoken, it must not be popular with the bandits, but it is a very effective method. The bandit leader can also use language art to fool his men to death. But there's a problem, death is also an art. Fighting to the death cannot arouse the hatred of the other side, and if the four groups lose contact with each other by dying like this now, it will undoubtedly give the staff officer a disadvantage.

This makes Kevin very strange, could it be that the bandits really want to fight to the death with the regular army with all their might? It is true that they have obtained some sheep skills, and there may be some other high-end technology, which is likely to be secretly supported by the Lane Empire. But this is the hinterland of Lou Baole Country, and even if the regular army of the Lane Empire comes in person, there can only be no return.

Perhaps, these bandits are also a group of people who were fooled to the front and sent to death?

Kevin shook his head, these high-level insider decisions, as a grassroots officer, are too difficult to guess. The important thing at the moment is the battle, the catapult is so slow, it can't catch up and run, it's impossible to command other groups to cooperate with you, you don't have the right to command, you will be scolded for making suggestions, and there is only one way left to defend.

Spreading out the map, there was one command after another from the parrot in her head, she was beside the staff officer, all the subordinate reports and staff officers had all heard them, and finally reported them all to Kevin. Before he knew it, Kevin was almost aware of the overall situation.

Opening the map, he swiped his finger over the map, and soon saw that the staff officer's deployment at this time was only to let the surrounding teams rush to the place of the incident. Coincidentally, the four teams that lost contact were all on the edge, and the rescue around them was the most difficult, which was obviously intentional by the bandits, and it also meant that the entire hilly area was under the control of the other party.

Originally, the staff officer asked Kevin to go to the 225 heights, but according to the map, this heights would not stop walking from here for a moment, and it was estimated that it might take the middle of the night to reach them. I don't know what will happen for such a long time, not to mention the level of the staff officer, I really can't believe it, once the battle starts, he can't say whether he can remember Kevin's catapult, he has no habit of commanding a catapult, and even common sense is lacking.

But as an army, especially in actual combat, even if your actions are right, it is taboo to perform other tasks without authorization. Even if the final result proves that Kevin is correct, Kevin must go back and plead guilty on his own, at least the merit will be offset by the demerit and demerit, and it will be considered fine, or at the worst, the military rank will be reduced and dismissed for investigation. If the final result proves that Kevin is fooling himself, then needless to say, he will cut it directly, and even implicate Starter and Gray.

This is military discipline, no matter how smart Kevin is, if he really disobeys it so straightforwardly, it can only become self-inflictedly smart. But this little thing is not bothering Kevin, just make an excuse.

"Report to the staff officer," Kevin interclaimed directly to his parrot through the contract, "my catapult was just fighting, and the load wheel was badly damaged. I asked to find a spot nearby and make repairs on my own. ”

"Can't you move?" replied the staff officer immediately, "Don't you have ten wheels, and can they all be damaged?"

"Staff officer, do you know how my wheels are damaged? What about too many wheels, if one wheel is stuck, it is equivalent to a brake, if this wheel is not removed, it is difficult for the car to be dragged, and it is even easy to control the direction because of the different speeds of the wheels on both sides. Kevin opened his mouth and came to a long time.

Kevin's eldest sister Parrot didn't know any rhetoric, none of the recruits understood anything, and Kevin passed on whatever he said, which made the staff officer angry enough. couldn't help but retort to him: "Then why don't you just take off the wheels?"

Kevin scolded angrily: "Do you know the tactics of catapults in the field? Just like when your cavalry is convenient for fighting immediately, when to use bows and arrows, when to use them to dismount and rest, when to let horses graze, and so on. Do you think that catapults can change wheels anywhere in the field? Do you know how many steps it takes to change a wheel? I don't have a space ring. ”

On the other side, the parrot turned the original words around without any hindrance, and the bird's beak was croaking, which stunned everyone around. The staff officer was so angry that his face turned purple and he didn't speak.

But at this time, the news came from the other side: "Staff officer, the 2nd group has arrived at the place where the 5th group has lost contact. Six bodies were found, including a communication mage and five bandits from the opposing side. ”

"What about the others?" the staff officer hurriedly asked.

"Footprints are currently being traced. The message came back.

"Keep tracking!" the staff officer ordered.

The news was sent back to Kevin's side at the same time, but Kevin felt that there was something wrong. At the cost of losing 5 bandits, the other party desperately killed the communication mage here and then fled, which is like a trap and bait no matter how you look at it. Let it run around on its own without command, and the entire army will fight on its own, and eventually be eaten away one by one.

To implement this plan, it is crucial to kill the opponent's communication mage or parrot first, but the communication mage is undoubtedly the target of key protection. There is a high price to pay, but it is clear that these bandits are not afraid of death. Kevin travels around the continent and thinks that only fanatical religious believers or madmen can compare to them.

At this time, the staff officer's orders also seemed to be inadequate, and Kevin felt that he should at least investigate it on the spot. How did the person die, what characteristics did the corpse have, what marks did it surround it, and so on. Just count how many people died? Is that too hasty?

But then again, it is true that the average soldier does not have the ability to carefully analyze the post-war scene, and basically only have the ability to count the number and type of corpses. If this is the case, then the commander should be sent to inspect the site himself, and in case the other teams have an accident, they should be assembled.

These bandits have the ability to lose contact with a team, so can't they also lose contact with the team that went to investigate? Does it really work?

Kevin has a lot of questions, but he also knows that it doesn't help to say it. There must be experienced officers on the side, and it is not their turn to say at all, so it is better to manage themselves.

"And the staff officer," Kevin urged his parrot again, "I've found a suitable site for renovation, a cave in the hills of 163 Heights. ”

At this time, the staff officer was receiving various other news reports, and when he heard Kevin's chatter and annoyance to him, he waved his hand directly and didn't say a word. The parrot was dazed for a moment, and replied directly: "The staff officer waved, he didn't speak." ”

"Then he acquiesced. Kevin immediately changed direction and walked towards the location he had chosen.

As a result, the parrot also opened its mouth: "Then take him as a default." ”

Everyone on the "......" side, including the staff officers, was surprised.

Starter and Gray had no idea what was going on, and Kevin and the parrot didn't need to communicate through their mouths, in their opinion, Kevin stood motionless for a long time, and then waved his hand: "Let's go, let's change places." ”

"You...... It can't be self-made, right?" said Start, a little worried.

"How so," Kevin laughed, "the staff officers agreed." ”

"And who are we now?" asked Stadt.

"Find a place to squat, build fortifications, and wait. Kevin replied.

"Wait, wait, what?" both wondered.

"Wait for someone else to come and fight us, or wait for the battle to be over. Kevin replied.

This is the enemy's territory, they know it all right, and if they walk around, they will inevitably be ambushed by the enemy. The other side obviously has a good conductor, or rather a mastermind behind it. If you want to counteract and crack this situation, you must first have a foothold of your own.

"Staff officer, our search team has lost contact!" The bad news came just moments later, and it also reached Kevin.

Kevin couldn't help but say a few more words and asked the parrot, "What is the staff officer's expression now?"

As a result, the parrot spoke: "Counselor, what is your expression now?"

The staff officer's face changed countless expressions in an instant, and he subconsciously raised his fist. Lieutenant Colonel House on the side hurriedly stopped: "This parrot is still a recruit, and he doesn't understand a lot of things. Intelligence is not quite up to par. ”

"Hmph!" the staff officer snorted coldly.

Lieutenant Colonel House advised again: "Now that the overall situation is important, don't care about these details, right?"

"Wait!" the staff officer reacted suddenly, "Isn't it that you will report everything I say here to Kevin?"

"Yes," replied the parrot aloud, "not only do you report everything you say to Kevin, but I will report it to Kevin, even every fart you put out." This is an order given to me by Chief Kevin!"

Everyone: "......"

"You tell Kevin," the staff officer turned dark, "if he makes it back to the barracks alive, I'll ......"

"Counselor!" another parrot on the side hurriedly interrupted, "I'm out of touch with my master!"

On the other side, Kevin got the parrot's reply throughout the whole process, and he felt strange when he heard the staff officer's half of the sentence, but he could also imagine the staff officer's angry appearance. I didn't expect my parrot to be so upright for a while, I just felt that this staff officer was simply a small belly and a poor character, and he wanted to find Kevin to take the blame for something. This is after the first image is bad, Kevin also sees how this staff officer is not pleasing to the eye.

"Ahh

"20 groups. The parrot replied.

The staff officer hurriedly took out the map and looked at it for a while, and found that six of the 20 groups had lost contact with each other, and their fate was unknown. What's next? Where is the enemy?

"Lieutenant Colonel House, what do you think?" At the critical moment, the staff officer didn't care too much and began to ask the others.

Lieutenant Colonel House replied in a decent manner: "It is very dangerous for a single group at the moment, let the two groups be combined." In this way, there are two communication mages, and it is not easy to die. ”

"Okay!" The staff officer immediately followed the line of thought, merged the team into seven again, and ordered them to continue the investigation towards the place of disappearance.

The news reached Kevin, who was a little nervous. Everyone else is gathered in two groups, and it has obviously become a hard bone to gnaw, and there are only three people here, I'm afraid they will pick up this piece of fat again.

"Everybody be careful!" Kevin kept reminding the two of them to look around, and repeated the tactics loudly, "As soon as the enemy is spotted, Statt will rush to the front, you know? Don't forget. ”

However, the actual tactic is that once the fight starts, all three people will get under the car. If the other party dares to attack, it must be a large group of people, and there are two small openings in front and back under the car, and it is not easy to attack. Shout out tactics, just to deceive the other side.

Then he walked all the way, all the way to the trailer, but there was not half an enemy, and even those 7 large groups did not encounter any enemies. Walking around in circles in the hilly area, I just couldn't find anyone. The enemy could not be found, and his own people could not be found, and the staff officers and several other commanders were very anxious, but no one could find them, but they were powerful and had nowhere to go.

It was getting darker, and the hills of Caludia at night were obviously more dangerous and foggy, so the staff had to gather all seven large groups and set up camp. Kevin's side finally came to the cave of his choice, this cave is located near the peak at a height of 163, with a slope of about 40 degrees on the front and a vertical slope on the back, similar to a cliff, but only about 100 meters high. Pulling the whole catapult up can be said to be very strenuous.

The three men first carried the contents of the cart into the cave to minimize the weight of the catapult, and then the donkey pulled the people to push them, stopped and walked. From time to time, I have to worry about the surrounding situation, worry about the sneak attack of the bandits, and dare not use up my strength.

By the time the catapult finally approached the cave, it was already dark. The fog here is heavy, and the moonlight and starlight can't penetrate it, so the three of them can only light torches, otherwise they can't see their fingers and can't work. But once you're in the cave, it's a lot easier.

This cave is said to be a cave, but it is actually a larger earthen pit. Half is naturally formed, and half is artificially reinforced. Since the establishment of the city-state, the Terrans have never stopped exploring the outside world. These monster habitats have historically been the place where countless explorers or mercenaries ventured, some died, and some survived. Some people are greater, and they will keep the holes they have dug in certain places, the sheds they have built, etc., and record them, which also makes it more labor-saving and convenient for those who take risks later.

That's how this cave came about, and it's clearly recorded in the Mercenary Handbook. It is said that about a few years ago, there was another time when the monster went berserk, and the five mercenaries hid in the cave for eight days, and the monster besieged several times but failed to succeed, and finally had no choice but to withdraw, and they were saved.

After being saved, they lamented their hardships and decided to do something good and throw some broken swords or some other rags into the hole. Although these are not valuable, if a mercenary in distress in the field gets them, they may be able to save their lives. After these mercenaries returned, they also called on other mercenaries to learn, throw some rags when they passed by, or take care of them, and serve future generations and themselves with their efforts.

The cave was not big enough, and the catapult could only get stuck at the entrance of the cave, with three wheels inside and two wheels outside. The pitcher arm was also stuck at the top of the hole and couldn't be thrown unless the car was pushed out. In the cave, I found some broken swords and axes, as well as some rotten clothes, and there was a lot of humidity here, and it was easy for iron tools to rust when thrown here.

"Take turns at night, I've got a watch here, a round every two hours," Kevin lay down, "I'll sleep first, Starter you're the first to work, then call me, and then Gray." Everyone, don't drag your clothes, there's still some jerky here, save some food. ”

"Good. The two nodded. The first post is relatively relaxed, and at least one less time you will be called in the middle of the night. It seems that Kevin is also embarrassed to put himself on the first post.

"There's a shovel here," Kevin tossed to Stat, "and get some of the fortifications around." You're almost done, I'll dig it. ”

Gray lay on the catapult: "Then are we going to sleep now? What if we can't sleep?"

"I'll knock you out if you can't sleep," Kevin said unceremoniously, "if you want to live, you can sleep." (To be continued.) Mobile phone users, please browse and read, a better reading experience.
