Chapter 446: Siege Arrangement, New Invention
Rogge and Philia scouted for a long time and finally came to a conclusion:
Cartagena's outlying fortress complex is laid out in a modest manner.
The gaps between the Imperial Fortress Complex are very particular and are calculated by a number of architectural experts and famous generals.
In this way, the fortress group can be placed at a certain angle to expand the firing angle to the maximum of the fortress by placing the bed crossbow, trebuchet and other defense equipment on the fortress, thereby increasing the ability of coordinated defense.
When orcs attack an imperial fortress, they are faced with several fortresses around it plus the firepower on the city walls, and the difficulty of the attack can be imagined.
The fortress complex outside the walls of Cocartagena, with irregular gaps, different sizes, different heights, and incomplete defensive equipment. Whether it's the ability to coordinate defenses or take them out alone to provide a defensive fulcrum, it's a far cry from the Imperial Fortress.
In the air, Filia put her hands around Rog's neck and said, "According to Scouts, this group of fortresses was built overnight, and it seems that they are not of high quality."
"Well, no matter how bad the quality of the fortress is, it is still a fortress, much more useful than barricades such as horse rejection and traps. But that shouldn't bother my Admiral Fillia, right?"
Filia smiled lightly, "This level will take me half a day at most, but what I care about is not the fortress itself, but whether there is still something hidden in this nondescript defense method made up by the demons?"
Rogge nodded and said, "There will definitely be hiding, these fortresses are not so simple, pay attention when the time comes."
The siege is imperative, and there is no time to test the means of the aliens, what Rog and Filia can do is to keep an eye on the attack and try to minimize the losses.
"What about the walls? Is there a way?"
"Of course." Philia pointed at the distance, "Aren't so many thorns the best fulcrum to climb?" It seems that Gruul has no military force, and he is not a very good general."
"Indeed, the Orc Alliance and the Alien Demons are mainly aggressive, and it is estimated that they have not defended the city a few times before they came up with such a clumsy defensive means."
"It's not useless, it's scary to look at, and it can make the orc warriors roar even louder." Filia said lightly.
The two taunted the orc alliance and the generals of the alien demons and returned to the camp.
As soon as Rog landed with Philia, a group of Pegasus knights flew in from the north, and the first one flew straight towards her.
"Miss!" A handsome and beautiful female knight saluted and handed over a military report, "I have sent the general's telegram, this is a reply from Emperor Charles."
Filia opened the military newspaper and finished reading it quickly.
She handed the newspaper directly to Rogge and said, "Emperor Charles' troops will be there tomorrow. He personally went to reconnoitre, and had already made a siege plan, and the army would attack the city without repairs. We're going to do it at the same time, and tomorrow at 9 a.m., we're going to start a general offensive."
"Eleanor, inform the head of the Knights of the Fire Feather to provide air support in coordination with the Flying Spirit Beast Force."
"Herald, inform the generals of all units to come and command the battalion, and I will make arrangements for tomorrow's siege."
Felia grabbed Rogge, who was about to leave, and spit out four words: "Rogge, stay with me."
"Yes." Rogge smiled and shook the goddess's hand and went with her to the command camp.
The military meeting didn't last long, as Filia had to set aside an entire afternoon for the generals to put their troops in order.
As the supreme commander of the Southern Route Army, Filia's tactical arrangement does not have to be meticulous, the battlefield is ever-changing, and sometimes too detailed arrangement will restrict the performance of the generals.
She only needs to put the troops in the right place and tell the general their mission, as for how to complete it, it depends on the general's ability.
Except for Filia and Rogge, there are no more people of their generation in the room of high-ranking generals. In terms of seniority, the two have to call them uncles and aunts, grandparents. Look at the book
But Filia didn't have the slightest stage fright, and she didn't pause when she gave the order in one breath, and she didn't even let go of the hand holding Rogge.
The two showed affection in front of a group of elders, and because of this, many old generals deserted at this critical meeting
。
Facing the curious and scrutinizing gazes of the generals, Rogge could only stand straight and show his image as a spiritual guy.
Rog arrived yesterday, and he hugged and kissed Filia as soon as he came, and he was still on high ground, and he didn't hide from others.
Although the fact that Filia has a boyfriend has been faintly rumored in the army before, it is now confirmed that the news is confirmed. And under the propaganda of Fiennes's "big trumpet", Rogge's heroic deeds are almost unknown in the army.
The soldiers of the Southern Route Army commented on Filia: her appearance is peerless, and her ability is against the sky.
It's popular, but it's apt.
The boyfriend of such an admired commander would naturally be the focus, and Rogge was already the object of envy of countless soldiers, even if he was a hero, it could not offset this jealousy.
The generals were naturally very concerned about this young man who disturbed the morale of the army, so in the discussion session after Filia's military order was issued, they asked him many questions.
If these questions are placed on other ordinary young players, they can reach the level of difficulty, but Rogge answers them in a clear manner, and even discusses them in different situations, and answers them in combination with reality, and his performance is perfect.
The veterans are all "knowledgeable", and as soon as they open their mouths, they know that there is nothing in their stomachs, and they immediately look at Rogge and send blessings to the two.
Looking at their satisfied eyes, it is estimated that if time permits, it is possible to hold a wedding on the spot.
As a few deserted veterans confirmed the order with Filia under the guise of haha, the meeting was completely over.
The two of them left the command camp and prepared to go to Ofina, who had probably stayed up all night, to see what magic the little girl had come up with.
As a result, before the two of them reached Orfina's temporary laboratory, they saw Fiennes, Alva, Alvarez, Renata, and other members of Roo Soma's adventure group, covering their noses and keeping a certain distance from the laboratory, discussing something enthusiastically.
Rog approached and asked, "Are you talking about ...... Ahem!"
He immediately understood why everyone behaved like this, frowned and raised his hand to cover his nose, and by the way, he helped Filia behind him to cover it too.
Rog barely opened his eyes and saw wisps of earthy yellow smoke wafting from the inside of the lab, the smell of this smoke was extremely pungent, not the stench of goblin skunk bombs, but an indescribable smell.
The smell of this smoke is the same as the stench, which is nauseating, but the difference is that the smoke can also spicy the eyes.
Don't think about it, this must be Orfina's "masterpiece", but it's a little strange that I didn't see the girl outside, right...... She's still in the lab?
At this time, Renata, the "dumb bird", turned around and said to Rogge with teary eyes, "Captain Rog, you are here......
"Where's Nana?" Rogge asked.
Renata pointed to the lab, "Nana hasn't come out of the lab all this time, this smoke smells so bad, I don't know if she's okay."
When Rogge heard this, he panicked a little.
He is actually relieved of Orfina, the girl is bold and careful, and she is also a light magician, so there should be no problem.
But the smell of this smoke is so "wonderful", what if she overturns her car while making something?
"I'll take a look."
Rog handed Philia's nose to herself, unleashing a strong wind spell that blew the smoke into the air to clear a path.
"Nana? Nana ......"
Before Rogge could enter the lab, he saw a small gloved hand open the door, and suddenly an even thicker yellow smoke poured out.
Everyone hurriedly retreated, and Rogge also shrank the range of the strong wind technique to protect himself.
"Nana, you're not dead, are you?"
"It's not gone, it's not gone, I accidentally blew one up when I was making a gas bomb, it's okay, people and Sister Thea are wearing protective suits!"
Orfina jumped two steps forward and got out of the thick area of the yellow smoke, and Rogge could see what she was talking about.
I saw the girl with her head and body
The whole person is wrapped in a special conjoined "armor", only leaking out two big smart eyes, and a few vivid chicken legs are painted on the protective clothing, which is her handwriting at a glance.
Behind Orfina came a man in a protective suit, and Rogge recognized it as Thea at a glance, because even in the protective suit, her beauty was unstoppable.
Even though he was wearing the "helmet", Rogge could still see a helpless smile on Thea's face.
Rogge clearly heard Orfina say that she blew one up while making the "gas bomb", so the yellow smoke was poison gas and had to be cleaned up as soon as possible.
So he summoned the magic power of his whole body, released the strong wind technique with all his strength, and flew into the air with yellow smoke.
Rogge returned to the ground, and Orfina, who had already taken off her protective suit, ran over and stuffed him with two melon-sized spheres, and said while releasing holy light to disperse them for everyone, "Brother, this is my newly researched poison gas bomb, which is very useful."
Rogge's hand was trembling slightly when he took it, in case he blew one up in his hand, it wouldn't be poisoned, but it smelled like this...... I guess I don't want to stick to my sister at night.
"Nana, what's the best of the story? What's the name of the gas bomb?" Under Orfina's expectant gaze, Rogge tried his best to play the role of a platter.
"I call it 'Cutie Two!'" You smell the poison gas, right? Isn't it unusually unbearable? Hey, hey, hey, this is the poison gas I invented to deal with orcs, they smell five times more irritating than we humans! And it's poisonous, and it can make people feel weak!"
"Nana is amazing!" Filia praised sincerely.
According to Orfina's description, the "Cutie II Gas Bomb" is not cute at all, and for orcs, it is deadly.
The smell of smoke Rogue they feel pungent and disgusting, if the orcs are stimulated five times, they will feel dizzy and dizzy, and if it is serious, they will even be directly stunned by the smoke!
This is much more powerful than ***, after all, the delivery of poison gas bombs is much simpler, and the spread of smoke is also very easy. On the contrary, it is not so easy for the Orc Alliance, which lacks wind mages, to deal with the poisonous smoke.
Rogge seemed to have seen the scene of the orc warriors quickly losing their combat effectiveness in the poisonous smoke once the gas bombs were dropped, and he couldn't help but sigh that the power of the arcane was so terrifying.
"How many gas bombs are there?" Filia asked.
"Twenty, the time is too short, and there is a main material obtained from the spatial enchantment of the Illusory God Tree, and it is still cultivated in the Spirit Ring Ring, so I can't do too much."
"It's already good, this one can easily destroy a fortress. No......" Filia's eyes wandered and she had a new idea, "Maybe destroying the fortress is overkill, and it should be ......."
Orfina directly interrupted Filia's thoughts: "Sister will think about it later, take me to see the siege equipment!"
"The siege equipment is ready, Nana, you don't have a way to strengthen the siege equipment, do you?"
"Yes, yes, Bright Star gave me a lot of materials yesterday, it's a pity not to have to drop it!"
Orfina grabbed Filia's arm and proudly said, "I'm going to make the rush indestructible!" Let the catapult run! Triple the power of the Bed Crossbow!"
The crowd was silent for a moment, staring at Orfina in amazement.
"Papapa......
There was a round of applause in the sky, and Rog looked up to see Matilda, who was supposed to join Felia.
"I just came back and I ran into something interesting, Nana, Rogge, did you miss me?"
