Chapter Eighty-Five: Return
Even if it was the fastest way to deliver the message, it was already six days later when the gourmand in the Holy Capital received the news.
It wasn't because of the long distance, or because of the lack of ability of the wingmen to convey the message, but because the troops led by the gourmets were marching too fast and incomprehensible, and even the experienced wingmen scouts wasted two days in vain to find the leader of the army hiding in the sun at noon.
"General Ed Munsa, there is an order from the Holy Capital Command, since receiving the numerology, order your troops to destroy the troops behind you as soon as possible, and to send 50,000 to 80,000 people north to block the demon army that may transfer the target to the Holy Capital. "The orders were short, and the orders on the scrolls were similar, except that there were more military information mentioned on them, at least so that the Blood Clan general understood why he was going north and why he was so urgent.
Looking at the noon sun, Ed hummed and said, "I know, do you want to go back now, or will you go back after I eat the demon troops behind?" The winged man in charge of the order shook his head and said: "General Hui, the order I received is to return immediately after the order is delivered, and the Holy Capital is not very stable now." ”
The blood clan general nodded, although their army was closed to news, but it had not yet reached the point where it could not get any news, but then the blood clan gourmand suddenly grinned and said: "You don't have to worry too much, drawing out 50,000 people is a bit painful for me, but I can get through it by gritting my teeth, but the main problem now is not the division of troops, but how to pass through the Hongdao Mountain Range, the sea has been unsafe recently, and the fleet is afraid that it will not be able to transport, and it will be too late in time." ”
After hearing this, the winged herald knew in his heart that according to his speed, it would actually only take four days to fly here, and if he flew overnight, he would actually be able to arrive in three days, and the reason why the distance in between was so long was that the Hongdao Mountain Range was indeed a problem.
It is true that the demons failed to attack the holy capital, but for the demons, after they retreated to the Hongdao Mountain Range, the empire still has nothing to do with them for the time being, in order to prevent the Holy Capital from contacting the troops in the south, the demons have worked the defense, and there are a total of five winged people to pass the order, so far, only he is lucky to pass through the Hongdao Mountain Range, and the life and death of the rest are unknown.
The warship that Ed said can't be used, in fact, it's not that it can't transport soldiers, it's just that the sea navigation is too dangerous, and now it's a period of instability in the sea, once you encounter a disaster in the sea, you can't avoid it at all, and you can only end up with a total annihilation, the shortest route is to return to Crescent Moon City, and then go all the way north, penetrate the blockade of the demons, in order to support the holy capital at the fastest speed, but will the demons give this chance, definitely not, in this way, the transfer of troops has become a joke, even if Ed's ability is strong, he has been undefeated, once the holy capital is captured by the demon army, everything in the six southern provinces will come to naught, and at that time, that is, when the Kotler Empire fell.
The return aid must be returned, but if you want to return to help, you need to lure out the demon army of the Hongdao Mountain Range, at least part of it, so that the troops going north can pass through, otherwise you won't be able to achieve the task of support at all.
Ed pondered for a moment and then said: "I will send another person to the Holy Capital to reply, and you will stay by my side as a herald, since you call me a general, and if you want to come to the Holy Capital, you will also arrange a veritable military position for me, in this case, I have the right to order you to stay." ”
The winged man was just stunned for a moment, and then saluted: "The first brigade of the reconnaissance battalion of the Holy Capital City Defense Army, the fourth squad scout Kang Si reports to you!"
Ed waved his hand and said, "Now I'll give you a task to see how many demon armies are left behind us to eat ashes, Ben...... The general is going to give them a big gift, come here!" As the words fell, two soldiers ran over, one dwarf and the other elf.
"The three of you follow him to reconnoitre, and after half a day, assemble at the mountain base fifty miles away. ”
The three of them left, while Ed slowly walked out of the shadows of the trees, and after waving, several soldiers of the Blood Clan surrounded him, and the Blood Clan General who felt that the sun was a little dazzling sneered and said, "Inform them, assemble, and counterattack." ”
The command is simple, and the process of execution is very simple.
The winged herald Kongs didn't think at all about how many troops Ed could manage now, when they finished scouting and arrived at the so-called mountain base, they saw only dense soldiers busy camping, and the scout couldn't help frowning when he saw the scale and asked: "This is a camp that only a 100,000-strong army can have, do you want to bluff?"
The dwarf who had been with him for a long time heard him say this, and immediately let out a hearty laugh, Cons didn't know why, but the elf beside him said calmly: "The six major provinces in the south, we have basically done it all, and the main force is, of course, Ed...... The general commands, there are about 40,000 to 50,000 people, and the rest of the non-main forces are dormant in various places, the specific number is not known except for the generals, the rest of the people do not know, these troops have only one order, ready to sneak attack at any time, and run away immediately if they miss a blow, since the Holy Capital wants to transfer troops, they can only draw a part from the main force, and the rest must be filled by the non-main forces, but since we want to eat the troops behind, we must gather the troops together as much as possible to form a military advantage, and determine the winner in one game, so that it hurts the demons, and their troops on the Hongdao Mountain Range may come down the mountain to find us, as long as they dare to move, our chance has come. ”
Constance nodded, it happened that a team of about 100 troops came to report, led by a winged man, after seeing Cons, after greeting in a unique way of winged people, he took the soldiers to the camp that had been prepared for repair, when Conses and the three returned, it was already afternoon, and after the double moon rose, the so-called non-main forces that Cons saw alone were no less than fifty, the number of these troops ranged from 100 to 1,000 people, and the teams were all varied, all races, but in general, they were still dominated by the human race, and the leaders of these troops had obviously dealt with each other, and the whole camp was filled with all kinds of ridiculeMost of the soldiers were like this, and the atmosphere in the camp was relaxed, and there was no sign of a big war at all.
In the evening, many of the commanders of the troops arrived at the center of the camp to participate in the next discussion meeting, when Ed proposed to eat the demon army behind him, no one objected, and even some of the commanders whistled excitedly, since no one had any objections, Ed directly issued their respective tasks, after getting the tasks of the various commanders, Ed looked up at the sky, the light of the double moon reflected on the mountains and mountains, but in the distance there were shadows, a little fire like the stars in the sky, unhurried towards this side slowly.
It was the pursuit force of the demons, and it was less than fifty miles away from the camp where it was stationed.
"Give me orders to prepare for war before sunrise tomorrow. ”
Ed's tone was calm, as if he had said an innocuous word, and then the Blood Clan powerhouse came to the camp after inflicting a few floats on himself, pulled out a map from the space ring, and after a brief browsing, a wicked smile full of Blood Clan style finally flowed out on the face of the Blood Clan powerhouse.
