After carefully analyzing Marfa's intelligence, I came to a conclusion - the current Ninth Legion is still very fragile, and it is pure joke to use them to greet the 100,000 or so demon alliance forces on the opposite side. Don't say that the Demon Alliance is a lot more numerical than us, but their individual combat effectiveness is also very strong.

I brace myself and divide my present form into two sides: friend and foe. Now I can't reach the enemy, but I still have some ways to deal with my own soldiers.

Garya has been sealed by my order, except for the convoy from the Dark Province, not a single material or personnel is allowed to pass, and the merchants and residents who have not had time to leave are all working for the army, blocking the news to the greatest extent.

I ordered the officers to report to me the most promising and youngest soldiers, and although the officers did not know what I wanted to do, they resolutely carried out my order, and nearly 10,000 soldiers were reported.

I temporarily organized them into four regiments and marched into the interior of the Sbia Empire in the name of urging supplies. The four regiments were unrecognizable when they circled around the Dark Province and then came back, and all of them were replaced by veterans of the Dark Province, not to mention, and brought more than 5,000 war horses.

With the addition of the original horses of the Ninth Legion, I can form three fully manned cavalry regiments!

On the day they returned, the whole camp was very lively, and the veterans of many wars watched the cavalry pass in front of them, and all of them shed tears of excitement.

"Cavalry! It's really cavalry!" they choked up and said to the soldiers beside them, "I knew that the boss would not abandon us, he was really with us!

The recruits, who had not yet been on the battlefield, said, "Isn't it cavalry?

"Fuck you! You bastard with no hair! Have you ever seen a cavalry charge? Do you know how much it costs to raise a cavalry?" The veterans taught the recruits in their own way: "Traditionally, only regular regiments have been equipped with cavalry! The boss treats us as regular soldiers! Otherwise, how can you be willing to put the cavalry with us!"

To everyone's surprise, I did not leave three cavalry regiments in the 1st Wing. Instead, they were all allocated to the Second Wing.

As soon as Helt heard the news. I was so happy to hug me and kiss me.

"Hellet. I sue you. I said to him cautiously, "This is the only cavalry we have, and I still expect them to grow and grow, if you are careless and lose them for me......

You'll have to pay for it. “

"I understand, don't worry, boss!" Helt thumped his chest, "I'll be careful with them!"

"Most of the officers and soldiers of these three cavalry regiments are from the Dark Province, and you have no problem commanding. I told Holder: "Either you don't use it, or you need to use it in the most critical places!"

"Yes!"

Three cavalry regiments immediately joined the training, and in addition to the morale of the Ninth Legion, they also doubled the pressure on the logistics regiment.

I'll have to let the Dark Province find a way. Fortunately, the dark construction was nearing completion, and the guys at the town hall, as soon as they heard that the governor was in trouble, sent me five thousand middle-aged laborers at once. At this time, the head of the logistics regiment was promoted to the head of the logistics department of the corps, and he already managed seven or eight thousand people.

One after another, I gave my legion a major change in a month. In any case, after this battle, not a single soldier of mine will be returned to the coalition forces.

Because of the blockade imposed on Garia, no one knew that the Dwarven Master had arrived.

The master took his own group of craftsmen to work in my headquarters for half a month, and then went back with a large pile of drawings. Of course. My design is also in the drawings.

Because I was prepared before I went to the military department, plus it was an assembly line production. The dwarven craftsmen in the Dark City deliver at an astonishing rate of five hundred sets of armor per day.

It didn't take long for the first field regiment to complete the redress. From head to toe, each person was dressed in armor from the hands of dwarven craftsmen. This is armor made by dwarven craftsmen! Not to mention slave soldiers, how many officers in the coalition army are proud to wear such armor!

I'm not worried about the gear I've changed. On the eve of the Great War, armoured weapons are in high demand, dear Diel. Miss Merlin will be glad to have a batch in stock.

The infantry of the field regiment was divided into three types.

Most of the soldiers with moderate physique became pikemen, and in order to deal with the cavalry of the Demon Alliance, the pikemen got new weapons and specially strengthened armor, so I just need them to hold the front line firmly in battle!

The able-bodied soldiers were given swords that could be temporarily fitted with long handles, and in normal situations, they could hold a knife in one hand and a shield in the other. If the situation requires it, the long metal handle is carried on the shoulder, and it can be installed with a single movement, and this kind of defensible and offensive adaptable unit is the core strength of our legion.

The soldiers who were not very strong became archers, and they were given new war bows and relatively light swords. The half-metal, half-wood twisted bow is about a man's height, with a long range and high accuracy.

The Master assured me that such a warbow, combined with a highly lethal refined feather arrow, could shoot through a finger's thick piece of metal armor at a distance of five hundred meters!

If it weren't for Deere's financial support, the Ninth Army would not have been so well equipped. If nothing else, let's just say that the fine iron arrows on the feather arrows, whether they are gods or demons, who can afford to use a three-edged arrow with a length of fifteen centimeters? They should snicker if they can use a five-centimeter-long flat arrow.

It is not only the difference of several types of equipment, but also the difference between two kinds of military thinking. Covering the enemy with long-range firepower, and weakening them as much as possible before making head-on contact, was one of the most basic tactical ideas of my previous military career. Of course, the training of soldiers is the most basic of the basics.

In order to train my soldiers more effectively, I have transferred almost all the military instructors, elven archers, elven mages, and skilled dwarven warriors from the Dark Province...... All that can come is here.

I tried my best to make the soldiers feel the atmosphere of actual combat, rushing, night attacking, head-on decisive battle, all the tricks I could think of were turned up, and the soldiers also put all their energy into training.

It's not bad to follow me. Everyone wants to survive.

It's summer harvest time. A guest came from the aquarium.

A delicate beauty stood at the gate of the Governor's Palace in Garia and looked at me. I could hear her beautiful singing again.

"Look, Boss!" Marfa shouted, "It's Ferna!"

"Shut up and do your thing. I glanced at Marfa and walked over to Forna.

"Why are you here?" I said to Forna, "This is the front line, and I can't entertain you." ”

"It's okay, I'll leave when I'm done. Furna raised her hand and stroked a few strands of hair that had been blown away by the wind: "It was the patriarch and the great elder who called me, and they have a message for you." ”

Listen to her call me "you". I can't help but feel a little regretful in my heart.

"The patriarch said," Furna looked at me and said, "Devil, I have done what you told me ahead of schedule, and you have twenty canoes, each of which can seat five people!"

"Really?" I was overjoyed and grabbed Fuerna's little hand, "Did he really say that?"

This is the best news I have heard in half a year, because I have twenty large transports, each equipped with two fast ships, and the whole fleet can transport 10,000 troops at a time!

Fuerna hurriedly withdrew her hand, her pink face already flushed.

"I'm a little overjoyed. I smiled uneasily, "What did the Great Elder say?"

The Great Elder said. Furna lowered her head and refused to look at me again: "Aqua Thank you for your help. But please, please don't forget jì. ”

"Won't forget jì. I said, "Please tell the Great Elder that I will fulfill my promise." ”

"Okay. Forna saluted me: "Then I take my leave." ”

I nodded, and sent a team of cavalry to escort Forna back.

"Boss!" Marfa, who was hiding on the side, jumped out: "Fuerna is getting more and more beautiful!"

"You want to die!" I twisted his ear and said, "Nothing to do, have time to have fun with your boss!"

"No, no!" Marfa cried out, "There is progress, there is progress!"

Say. I let go of him: "How much progress?"

"Hehe! Our money wasn't spent in vain. Marfa whispered, "There's news from Amaterasu that the friend on the other side has prepared all kinds of gifts, and two copies of each are on the way!

"Hahaha......" I looked up at the sky, "What a day is it!

Let's go, we're ready to go!"

Although I have increased my investment in the intelligence system, for a while, Marfa has no way to quickly infiltrate the interior of the Demon Alliance, but fortunately, there are still a few kinds of people in this world, a few people who can be bought with money.

Marfa spent a lot of money to recruit a large number of mercenaries on the inner line of the Demon Alliance, and used smuggling as an excuse to find out the transportation route of the army's logistics reserves...... A few days ago, I received the same information as the military headquarters, but now, I dare say, the military department's information is far less detailed than mine.

At the same time, Amaterasu, who had already established himself in the Demon Alliance, paid a lot of money to hire a bounty hunter to do a very inhumane thing - he asked the bounty hunter to catch the soldiers of the Demon Alliance for him, at least one per unit, and the special class could not be spared! At this time, there will be deserters in any army, and one or two less soldiers is not a big deal.

However, it is not a big deal for them, but it is a big deal for me.

After these "gifts" were transported in large wooden boxes, I summoned the Judge Advocate General's Office and the Liaison Office overnight to torture them.

Beautiful money, coercion and temptation, sitting on the tiger chair and pouring chili water...... I used all the tricks I could think of, and finally got the information we needed.

"Boss, what should these people do?" Jack flipped through a large pile of information in his hand, "Locked up?"

I looked at the captives without saying a word, hardening my heart and forcing myself to make a cruel decision.

"Call me the best martial artist in the Legion, and the magician. Finally, I broke the silence: "And all the witch doctors around here." ”

Again, as long as I can keep my soldiers alive, I'm willing to do anything.

After the day, each group was given several wooden statues of different shapes, which were made to life, with skin, muscles, and bones.

Accompanying the statues is a detailed description of the physical characteristics of the statues and what is fatal...... The command ordered that every soldier must understand.

The Ninth Army Corps made preparations in advance and waited for orders from the Allied Army Headquarters.

Behind him is the field of the Sbia Empire. The autumn grain is almost ripe. The breeze surrounds the city with the scent of early autumn. The sunset is slanting. A qiē is so warm.

"Why do you want to fight, why let so many people shed their blood in a foreign land?" asked me in a recent letter home.

She asked me, who am I going to ask again?

As a husband, I can't answer my wife, even though I love her as much as I love her.

As a general, I can't answer the soldiers, I can only do my best to reduce their sacrifices.

Why?

This is insatiable human nature...... What honors, what duties, see the fucking hell!

I held the letter in my hand and stood at the head of the city until late at night. I'm standing in this place. At the same time, there are tens of thousands of soldiers' lives in their hands.

And I, an ordinary person, am in this continent of endless strife, in this fragmented time and space...... What can I really do?

Looking at the soldiers patrolling the city walls, looking at the troops training at night, looking at these lives, my heart felt a sadness, and my eyes couldn't help but get wet.

The moonlight is like water, like a dream.

Shaking my head vigorously, I took a few deep breaths before turning around and descending the walls.

A few days passed. The order from the military department finally came.

I took the wax-sealed scroll from the herald's hand, opened it, looked at it, and handed it to Carlos.

"I know the order. I said coldly to the herald, "I will do my best." Complete the orders of the military headquarters. ”

"Yes, Your Excellency. The herald took the receipt I had opened: "The prince asked me to bring you a message." ”

"Say it!"

"The prince said that as long as you complete the order, there is no limit to the method, and please pay attention to your own safety. ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for me. I nodded and said, "I won't forget his help." ”

After sending off the herald, I summoned a meeting of the senior commanders of the legions.

"This is an order from the military department. I threw the scroll on the table and said to everyone, "Just as we thought, the Ninth Legion is going to move before the whole battle, to attack first, and firmly contain the demon alliance forces in front of us. ”

"This order from the military headquarters is a bit excessive!" Hailt complained, "The Ninth Army is less than 80,000 men, but if you want us to attack and contain more than 100,000 enemy troops, is there something wrong with their heads?"

"The information provided to us by the military department is just funny. Marfa said: "In their intelligence, we only have 60,000 enemy troops in front of us, and we haven't even mentioned the special troops!"

"Don't say things that don't make sense. I said, "What can you do?"

"It's okay to attack. Helt said: "We will use some of our forces, try to fight first, and if it doesn't work, we will retreat." ”

"Otherwise, let's defend it!" said Moya, "Guarding it can also contain the enemy!"

"It's easy to say! you think," I interrupted the two of them, "once the war starts, the coalition military headquarters will have the Bright Protoss to supervise the war, can you fool the Protoss with these tricks?"

"What do you have to do, boss?" asked me.

"We must have both offense and defense, and there is another point, we can't fight on our own turf, and if we break it, we have to clean it up ourselves. I said, "Let's run away and make some trouble over there."

"Boss, you're right. "But we have too many enemies in front of us, and if we fight hard, I'm afraid there won't be a few men left in the Ninth Legion." ”

"It's not a problem, Carlos and I have a plan. I said, "This is our logistics base, we have to leave a few regiments to guard it, and the rest of the troops will follow me." ”

"When are we going to act?" said Heert, "really going to attack?"

"The attack is a must, after all, we have done so many bad things, and the coalition forces have endured it. If we don't do something for the coalition forces, we can't get out. I said, "We just need to keep the enemy firmly in check, and no one can control what we do!"

"Boss, do you have a good solution?" Hailt's eyes lit up: "Tell me quickly!"

"Hellet. I smiled slightly, "Have you ever been on a boat?

Helt shook his head, not understanding why I was asking.

"Would you like to have fun on a boat?"

Helt nodded again.

"Well, you immediately set off with three field regiments and one logistics regiment. I smiled and said, "Go on a boat and have fun!"

"Where's the ship?"

"You don't know yet, we in the dark already have our own fleet. I said, "The fleet is already waiting for you on the coast!"

"Carlos will tell you where you will board the ship and where you will disembark, and you must contact the local intelligence officers in the shortest possible time. I said, "You have to lay a good foundation for the troops behind, and I'm going to make a fuss about the Demon Alliance on the other side!"

Without a generous oath, no blessing from the priests of the Temple, not even a meal for the soldiers, I let them go.

After Helt left with 10,000 men, I hurried to arrange the second batch of seaborne troops, because it would take five days for the fleet to go back and forth, and in addition, Helt did not bring much provisions, so I had to scratch my scalp to arrange everything.

The report to the War Department was written, and I gave it to a major herald and instructed him to hand it over to the War Department after the war had begun on all fronts.

During the day, I would occasionally appear on the street and talk and laugh with a group of officers.

During the night, the troops had crept into the wilderness in batches to assemble along the coastline, and I personally led the third wave out of Garia, advancing cautiously all the way.

I'm not in the Demon Defense Alliance, I'm in the God Defense Alliance, if they find out that the Ninth Legion is not in their base city before the war...... It's a lot of fun, and there's no guarantee that nothing will happen.

The waves were crashing against the shore, but I was staring at the sea in a daze, waiting for it to get dark.

This place is close to the dividing line between gods and demons, and it is on the edge of the continent, so it is very desolate. Although there were few inhabitants of this area, I still did not want to risk it, and the soldiers of the four regiments lay on their stomachs in the woods by the sea, and not a single one dared to speak.

The soldiers have already done a lot of outrageous things with me, and every time there are benefits, and every time there are different feelings. (To be continued......)
