Chapter 1564: Counteroffensive Moment

There are five mountain trails that can safely cross the Wind Emperor Mountains. Advance through the five passes in front of each of the five levels and cross the cursed mountain.

Although it is possible to cross the mountains in other places, the level of safety and danger is different from that of the five mountain trails.

In order to sneak attack, the orc army chose these special routes to cross the mountains. Even if the troops are all elites, in fact, after successfully crossing the mountains, only half of the troops are left that can fight. The missing half was either seriously injured or lost in the process.

For the human side, there is no need for them to take risks in front of them, so they naturally choose a safe route to pass.

After the preliminary plan was finalized, the army began to move.

Although this war is not a tense battle against time. But if everyone wants to kill the position of the Abyss Gate before the orc army returns to defense, they will have to speed up their actions. It's not about preparing everything big and small before you act.

It is conceivable that when the orc army returns to the defense, it will take several times as much effort to achieve the same goal. So even if the action is a little hasty, as long as the supplies can keep up, even if there are some omissions, the front-line commanders below will find a way to overcome them.

The first troops who crossed the Wind Emperor Mountains met up with the vanguard of the outpost, and the first thing they did was to build a supply camp.

The Cursed Wind Emperor Mountain Range is a natural hazard level, and even if you choose the safest route, it will be difficult to climb.

In contrast, although the terrain after crossing the Wind Emperor Mountains is mainly hilly, it is also accessible to vehicles such as horse-drawn carriages and automobiles. This means that the speed of the march will be greatly increased, but the difficulty of transportation will not be relatively reduced.

The increased speed of the march meant that the supply team had to travel longer distances to catch up with the troops in front of them. This means that the supply team doesn't have to cross the mountain road, but they have to travel farther to complete the mission.

So it's important to set up a supply depot on the north side of the mountain. Divide the supply route into two sections and give each team to handle. One section was in charge of navigating the Wind Emperor Mountain Range, and the other section was delivered to the troops from the supply depot.

The first troops followed the outposts and set up supply depots. And an endless stream of supplies was also sent from the base camp on the south side of the mountain range.

Soon, the follow-up troops quickly followed. And according to the diversion of five checkpoints and five mountain roads, five routes were simply formed to march north.

Anyway, there weren't many troops that could climb through the mountains at any one time, and even if they stayed in the supply camp to the north for a while and gathered enough troops before setting out, the number of troops would still be limited.

Therefore, the young officers of the General Staff did not deliberately try to find more routes to the north. At most, it is to order a few troops to diverge from the course and easily deal with some enemies who are still in place and have not moved.

When only the defenders who maintained the defensive line were left in the south, and most of the troops had crossed the Wind Emperor Mountains, the base camp followed suit and moved to the north of the mountain. And after that, the old general Kaveh led his own army, and also marched to the north, instead of staying in the rear.

The existing herald system in Midi is not enough to support keeping the commander far from the front line.

No one wants to pass those huge and cumbersome military orders through magic, because the cost of doing so is too great. Nor do the mages want to be reduced to the existence of heralds.

It's okay to use the forum. But the old Kavi Gong, who was well aware of the flaws in the secrecy of the forum, did not want to put this crucial task on a flawed tool.

Therefore, for the sake of the smooth flow of orders, he still followed the old method and followed the large army. Even when necessary, stand on the front line.

The Twin Griffins were not idle during this time. The airship force that did not belong to the Haider Empire, did not need to hold a certain section of the defensive line, and at the same time led a ground force, Ezio was incorporated into the force directly under the old Kavigong.

The regular legions attached to the Gwana Empire still maintain their establishment and have a certain degree of independence. These ten armies, which are considered to be the most powerful, are placed at the forefront of the fight against the enemy according to their own characteristics.

The Chinese army directly under the old Kaveh Gong was composed of some aristocratic private armies who were good friends with him, and most of them were minor nobles.

On the one hand, because the great nobles will not easily subjugate to others, it is better to maintain a certain degree of independence than to use power to force them to submit. Moreover, if the army of the petty nobles is not led by a strong man, it will be as difficult to command as scattered sand.

Therefore, every 'army' that is preparing for a counteroffensive is composed of one or two big nobles, leading a group of small nobles. It is not limited to the nobility of the same country to form an army. Anyway, for the aristocracy, sometimes the status is more important than which king or emperor they belong to.

Ezio's team is almost all from elementary school, and they are members of the Brotherhood. This kind of wild team, unless it is brilliant, is difficult to be favored by the nobles. After all, not belonging to the aristocratic background sometimes means a lack of resources.

Unfortunately, Ezio's team was one of the main forces in the retreat. In terms of merit, there are not many people who are higher than this team.

Even the regular legions of the Empire, they were only well-equipped and well-trained. In terms of actual combat exploits, the long-peaceful Lost Land did not give these elite legions room to play. It's normal to be inferior to those teams that have fought and retreated.

Therefore, when the legion was reorganized, Ezio's team had many powerful nobles who extended their hands to solicit them.

However, the Airship Twin Griffons, which is also in Ezio's team, is the property of the Grand Duke of Carvey's family. Old Carveh took charge and placed the airship under the command of Ezio. It's a loan, but it's not just a giveaway.

Coupled with the relationship between the old man and the magician, as well as the debts between the person from the elementary school and the magician, the old Kavi Gong had no trouble incorporating Ezio's team into the direct system.

Incorporated into the Chinese army, which didn't seem to be at the forefront of the frontline, Ezio was not at all dissatisfied. It's not that he's content to stay in a safe place, but that hellish instinct sends him another warning sign.

The old tactics of the half-orcs are to attack the east and west, divert the tiger from the mountain, and then attack the enemy's soft underbelly with the main force, and expand the results in one go!

Of course, this series of combos is easy to use, so the orcs use it again and again. Sometimes even if it is discovered, it is not bad, then the sheep attack becomes the main attack, the main attack becomes hard, and then the brave wins.

In the team of half-orcs, there is no shortage of the kind of people who would rather die in battle than retreat.

Of course, that's in a state of madness. If morale collapses, the orcs are also the fastest to run away. Half-orcs are such an extreme race.

And now the actions of the human side seemed to Ezio to be a strategy to lure the enemy deeper. I just don't know where the enemy is in ambush.

You must know that in the 'Demons and Orcs Alliance', the demon is the protagonist and the enemy! Orcs are just scraps, even if they are really numerous.

But since that retreat, Ezio has rarely seen demons on the battlefield. Including the attack on the south side of the Wind Emperor Mountain Range, the defense line established by the Gwana Empire is also dominated by the army of half-orcs.

Although demons also appeared, the types of demons that appeared and the number of casualties were almost the same as those used for embellishment. It's not about the big picture.

Even in the subsequent airship rescue missions, either no enemies were encountered, or half-orcs were encountered. The most unlucky thing is just a detachment like himself, and he has encountered a master of the level of strong orcs and a half.

So, where did the demon go?

Ezio didn't think the demons had passed through the Abyssal Gate and gone back to the Abyss for a vacation.

The changeable ability of the devil is the real henchman!

I still remember the most dangerous battle in the retreat battle, when a team of invisible demons attacked their team from the side. If it weren't for the people of the Brotherhood who stood up and stood up, and the demon attacked was not a high-level strong enemy, maybe after that battle, there would be nothing of their own.

So during the time he was moving around the base camp, Ezio handed over the ground forces to the Brotherhood's deputy. He himself stayed on board the Twin Griffons and circled around the Twin Griffons, trying to find possible ambushes for the enemy, or a means of surprise attack.

The previous rescue mission was that the airship team in the sky was attracted to a distance by the half-orc team, and then the strong orcs and half-single-handedly attacked the airship team that landed. Not only did he kill a lot of people, but he also exploded an old main airship of the Haider Empire.

And that's just the orc's trick. When it comes to cunning and cunning, the devil is definitely more than that.

So this time the lure enemy is deep, how will the demon alliance fight?

Or is it all the unwarranted concern of a young man who has been delusional about being victimized?

Staying in the command room of the Twins Griffon, Ezio, who had been on the edge of his seat, laughed at himself.

In fact, in the eyes of others, he acted as if his injuries had not fully healed, although this was also the case. But compared to the dark wounds on his body, Ezio's worries, which are difficult to talk to others, are the source of his real troubles.

Far away is the plan of the magician and the World Tree, and close is the devil's idea that the demon coalition doesn't know if it has or doesn't have. Either way, Ezio was annoyed, but there was no one to share with him.

The former is unspeakable. The latter said that only a very small number of people knew about it for fear of affecting morale, and worked with Ezio to find possible clues. But these people were not as worried as Ezio.

But there are some people who are crow's mouths, good spirits who do not work badly. Ezio's fears were finally proven to be unfounded, and the fanged enemy had indeed stabbed the human army in the underbelly!

When the Chinese army led by the old Kaveh moved north, they found that they had been surrounded by the enemy!

Ravaged by war, an enemy has emerged from an unknown source in what should have been an uninhabited land. They were outnumbered, several times the number of troops on the human side that set out last, and they came from all sides.

Ezio was the first to discover the enemy, and he knew why the Arcane Eye on the airship hadn't detected the enemy's existence before. Because the enemy comes from underground.

I didn't know that it was another space dug up to hide soldiers; Or the underground world space that already exists, but someone has dug another passage to the surface.

Gray Dwarves, join the war!
