"Oh, since Bright Swallow Kyoto is so dangerous, why do you still let her go there to mess around?" Catherine said with immediate dissatisfaction. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Hehe!" the old evil smiled slightly, and said, "You also underestimate the Empire of Light, even if the second line of defense can't stand it, it will stop the undead a little bit, not to mention that there is a stronger third line of defense waiting for them." I estimate that no matter how powerful the undead are, it will take a long time to break through these two lines of defense. Don't forget, the undead's attacks have always been based on the overwhelming Skull Sea tactics, and the assault surname is not strong, mainly relying on grinding. In addition, it also takes a long time for them to gather a large number of skeletons, so the undead's attack speed is not fast. There has been a situation in history where a line of defense has been held for several years! Therefore, when they reach Guangming Yanjing, they don't know how long it will take, and if the situation is not good, it is a big deal to send the little girl back. What's so dangerous about that?"

"This~" When Catherine heard this, she immediately felt that it made sense, and she was a little loose for a while.

Seeing this, the little princess naturally refused to give up the opportunity, and finally got Catherine by grinding and hard foam and coercion and temptation.

But because Catherine had to take the lead and mingle with her own subordinates, and the living conditions were relatively difficult, it was obviously not suitable for the little princess to follow, so in the end she was cheaper than the old evil. The little princess became his guest.

In fact, the old evil didn't care about taking such a little girl on the road, but this time he stood on the side of the little girl very firmly, and even did not hesitate to argue with Catherine, the purpose was to make the emperor and queen anxious. to retaliate for their arrangement this time.

In fact, Catherine didn't think so, and after making sure that the little princess would not be in danger, she simply pretended to be deaf and dumb, and even sent a message to the emperor. It's just that he wants to take the opportunity to make the emperor anxious.

At this time, it was seen that the tacit understanding between the old evil and Catherine had come, and although they did not discuss it, they had achieved a surprising agreement on the practice of concealing the matter.

"Smack!" After the emperor smashed the eighth cup of the day, he roared at the people kneeling on the ground below: "Go and I will find it, even if you turn Yanjing over, you will also find the little princess for me!

"Yes!" With a frightened answer, a group of palace guards were so frightened that they crawled out, and then shouted and led their subordinates to rush out of the palace, and searched the little princess door to door again. It's a pity that in the next few days, even if more than 100,000 people were dispatched to search several times within a few hundred miles around the imperial capital, there was still no trace of the little princess.

The enraged emperor has cut off hundreds of people's heads in a row, but there is still nothing he can do. And the queen just suffered the pain of losing her brother, but then she lost her daughter, and her son lost an eye forever, and the successive blows directly made this vicious woman sick, which can be regarded as a kind of retribution!

After a few days, the fast old evil and the others finally arrived at the border and rested for the night in the empty garrison of the Second Legion. That night, they received an update from the officials who stayed behind.

The first news was about their whereabouts, and as expected, although the Bright Empire assigned the second legion of the Griffin Empire to directly open the second line of defense, it asked the eldest princess to take these thousand champion knights to the Bright Yanjing to station first. Obviously, he didn't plan to send them to death, after all, the identity of the eldest princess was too sensitive, she was not only the princess of the Griffin Empire, but also the undefeated mantle disciple of the Sword God Dongfang, and it was possible to inherit the Chaos Principality in the future. Neither of these two forces is easy to mess with, how dare the Pope of Light let Catherine have an accident?

Not only can't she be called into an accident, but she must also be arranged to be in the limelight. Therefore, according to the unspoken rules among the nobles, in the early stage of danger, Catherine must be sitting in the rear, and when the undead show defeat and even begin to retreat, Catherine will be sent out to grab credit. In this way, both countries will look good, thus laying a solid foundation for continued cooperation in the future.

For this kind of intrigue, the old evil has lived for hundreds of years, so he can naturally see it at a glance. And Catherine didn't think about it so much, but the old evil didn't bother to explain it to her, so she just ignored this news and continued to pay attention to the next one!

The second message is about the dynamics of the army of the undead. According to reliable information, the Lich King's grieved army did not take advantage of the lack of a second line of defense to launch a lightning raid, but instead blocked the second line of defense and began to hunt down those who did not have time to flee in order to replenish his troops.

You know, there are more than a million people between the first line of defense and the second line of defense, and they are all people who provide food and war equipment for the army of the first line of defense. Because the speed of the undead army broke through the first line of defense this time, these people did not have enough time to retreat to the second line of defense, and they were surrounded by the army of the undead and became lambs to the slaughter. And now, the army of the undead is slaughtering these lambs and transforming them into various undead troops.

When Catherine heard this, she couldn't help but be furious: "Damn the undead, even innocent people don't spare it! It's just not as good as beasts! What do the soldiers of the second line of defense do to eat? Don't you know how to break through the undead's interception and save people?"

"Your Royal Highness Princess, how can it be as simple as you say!" Lancer, the captain of the Thousand Thousand Champion Knight under Catherine, smiled bitterly: "You know, the second line of defense was only sixty or seventy thousand people at that time, and the defense was not enough, how dare you rush out?"

"Sixty or seventy thousand?" Catherine said in surprise: "How can it be like this? They alone have 30,000 defenders! Could it be that the 200,000 men of the first line of defense have returned more than 30,000?"

"Not yet!" Lancer reluctantly explained, "Because the traitor of the Empire of Light is too high, cardinal, so when he rebelled, he caused great trouble to the fortress, and the army of the undead easily occupied the city gates, and then fought all the way in. Although the defenders put up stubborn resistance, they were defeated and lost 100,000 men in that battle alone. Later, the army of the undead pursued the fleeing human warriors, relying on the Death Knight's high mobility and durability surnames, and the defeated soldiers of the Bright Empire were killed in pieces. In the end, there were only more than 10,000 defeated troops gathered in the second line of defense, and if it weren't for the temporary transfer of some troops from behind, even 60,000 or 70,000 troops would not be able to muster together!"

"And now?" said Catherine hurriedly.

"Now that our second legion should have arrived, plus the reinforcements of the Bright Empire, then there are almost more than 300,000 people in the second line of defense?" Lancer then said: "But they are facing more undead, at least more than 1.5 million, once the undead army has swept away all the humans, they will launch a fierce attack on the second line of defense! Alas, the Lich King is indeed very sad, this kind of steady and steady tactic is really terrifying!"

"Bullshit!" said unceremoniously, "The Lich King is sad that this time he has definitely gone out of his way! The tactic of delaying time is a failure at all!"

Although Lancer is a captain of a thousand people, but because of the special surname of the champion knight, he is also a general title, and even has the title of earl, and he usually does not dare to slack off even if he is idle, but now he is ridiculed by the old evil in public, and he suddenly has some unbearable faces. Immediately unconvinced, he said, "Oh, I wonder why the 'young little' earl said that the Lich King was sad and defeated?" Lancer deliberately emphasized the words 'young and young', which clearly revealed a sense of contempt.

The old evil was naturally not afraid of him, and immediately sneered: "The situation at that time is undoubtedly a good time for a blitzkrieg, as long as you chase the defeated army and do your best to storm the second line of defense. With the few men and horses and low morale of the second line of defense at that time, is it possible to hold back the strong attack of the 200,000 elite undead army? Once the undead take the opportunity to break through the second line of defense, then not only the more than one million people will be the food of the undead, but also the more than 10 million people behind the second line of defense will also be directly threatened and have to retreat! This will have a huge adverse impact on the Bright Empire. But the Lich King is good, not only did he not take the opportunity to attack, but instead stopped to give the humans a chance to breathe, and now facing the second line of defense garrisoned by more than 300,000 horses, it is definitely enough for him to have a headache!"

"This!~" General Lancer is obviously the kind of orthodox knight with a very gentlemanly demeanor, so after listening to the old evil's explanation, not only did he not quibble for the sake of his own face, but frowned and said: "It seems that your analysis is very reasonable, but the problem is, I may make this kind of stupid trick, but the Lich King will definitely not." He is a monster who has been famous for 2,000 years, and has launched dozens of undead disasters. The tactical command has already reached the point of being impeccable, otherwise he would not have forced all the countries of the whole continent to attack him together every time!"
