"As for ...... He...... Myself...... It's busy...... Proofreading casualties...... Not available...... Mind it...... "The Dark Mage explained. "Take it away...... Do you want to ...... Taken away ...... All of them...... Others ......"

"What about the others?" said Damon, staring at the other.

"I don't ...... Zhilu said...... "The black magician's answer. "But...... No...... Kill them...... Most...... Just as a slave......"

In fact, even if it is a war between human beings, the fate of those who have become captives is quite tragic. Ideally, they would be imprisoned for a while and released at the end of the war – but this kind of good fortune was completely unattainable, and could only be enjoyed by noble captives who came from wealthy families and could pay a ransom (it is all too rare to be released without a ransom). In this case, the nobles waited to pay the ransom in exchange for their freedom, and the commoners waited to be killed if the state did not pay the ransom on their behalf.

However, there were also cases where captives were sent as slave laborers to mines, farms, and so on. If the captives included a large number of old and weak women and children, they were sold in large numbers. However, due to the many restrictions of private slavery, these unfortunate people also have a great chance of being free again in the days to come.

This fate was already much better than Damon had thought.

"You don't want to ...... Look at me like this...... In fact...... I'm ...... with the Scarlet Duke Same ......," the dark mage continued. "I've always ...... Remember...... I'm a Hama...... of people...... The Scarlet Duke...... Same ......"

"It's the same?"

"Duke Scarlet...... Equally...... Always remember...... He's still a human ...... The days of time ......" The black magician's voice was intermittent, but there was a different meaning in his words.

......

"What a loss!" said Ashrufat to himself with a wry smile.

Now he has the full picture of the loss. Although in the final decisive battle, because of Damon, he took advantage of the battle as soon as the battle began, and immediately after the battle, all the ranged forces in the main force of the Binds were rendered useless. In the ensuing battle, the Grave Guards and Skeleton Warriors were able to flank the central forces of the Hama and eventually defeat the Hama with the support of magic.

But throughout the war, from the beginning to the end, the total number of troops he lost was very considerable. Although some of the losses can be made up for by the destroyed undead legions through dark magic, there are also many undead creatures that are chopped up and broken and cannot be used again. Especially the banshees, who were very effective in their harassment battles with the Hama Clan, but they were also wiped out in these suicidal night raids.

Things like dire wolves, banshees, corpse cars, and the like weren't originally his, but were brought to him by those dark magicians. These troops are very useful, but they are extremely difficult to replenish. In the case of Banshees, summoning a Banshee would take weeks of preparation for a dark mage to complete the magical ritual of summoning these souls that could not enter the underworld from the gap between the two worlds. The same goes for dire wolves, each dire wolf takes a considerable amount of time to make. Although Carrie has improved these techniques, the efficiency gains are still limited. This means that without a year or two, he will not be able to replenish the losses of this war. Not to mention the ghouls and ghouls.

The ancient tombs that Sivania could loot had already been visited by him or his men, and if the corpse demon was destroyed, there would be one less. Most of the ghouls were attracted to him, and even if there were still some lurking in the depths of some jungles, they were limited in number and had nothing to do with the overall situation.

But his most dangerous enemies are not the Bin, but the Ryans. From this point of view, even if the war with the Binzu is won, it is a defeat.

Now the only question is...... He didn't know when the Ryan would attack, how many troops they would send, or who would appoint generals. However, as long as the troops sent by the Ryan did not lose to the Hambin, and the commander did not do anything stupid, it would be difficult for him to win. Because in this war, he not only lost a large part of his troops, but also showed his trump card. Now anyone knows the path that used to be entrenched by dragons. As long as the Ryan people fight steadily and steadily, then he has no chance of winning.

War is sometimes as simple as that, using one's own advantages, a little bit of attrition with the enemy, it looks clumsy, but in fact it is invulnerable. It's like a fighter in the ring. In hand-to-hand combat, if one side is strong but slow, they will slowly approach their opponent and endure their opponent's constant light blows in an attempt to force them into a corner and win with one blow. This method looks stupid, stupid and unsightly, but the results of the actual battle prove that opponents with small physiques and flexible bodies can hardly resist this "stupid and stupid" tactic.

Thomas has also said before that as long as the opponent's forces are gathered more than five times the number of troops and can guarantee logistics, then a slow advance and a frontal battle will be a sure victory.

The sound of footsteps outside interrupted his train of thought, and he didn't move, but he could still clearly feel someone entering the tent from outside.

"Your Excellency. The voice wasn't particularly familiar, but Ashrufat remembered that the other party's name was Zod. Of course, even if he can't remember the other party's name, Carrie will remind him in time. Carrie emphasized that knowing each of her subordinates and calling them by name is one of the most basic conditions for a good leader. Regarding this ability, Ashruphat is still being trained.

"What's the matter?" asked Ashrufat.

"It's a bit difficult to make a plan. Zod replied bluntly. Compared to the others, the original rebel members were much less afraid of him, and dared to speak up to him instead of just saying nothing.

"Is it hard to clean up the people of the Hama in five days? they have no combatants. ”

"But there are too few of us. Zod explained the difficulties below. Originally, the Bins were scattered on the plains near Mir City, setting up tents or temporary wooden huts to live. Although Ashrufat had previously controlled various vital points and surrounded them, he had not yet controlled them concretely. These civilians are filled with fear of vampires and do everything they can to hide and escape. It is quite difficult to gather them together and take them away when there is a shortage of manpower.

It would have been much easier if Ashrufat had sent his undead legion to deal with the civilians of the Bin. But this is based on his intention to kill all these civilians. Because the undead legion is okay on the battlefield, but there is nothing that can be done to execute something a little more complicated. At the end of the day, they're just a bunch of puppets. Even the most flexible of them all, even the corpse demons that have retained their martial arts during their lifetime. Carrie said that the long-dead warriors could recall some of the events of their lives, but those memories were also dim and blurry. Under the influence of the dark arts, the only thing they know is that they must obey and fight those who awaken them. In a word, they may be good soldiers who are tireless and do not know how to flinch, but they cannot carry out complex orders like humans.

"Call Damon and them to help. Ashrufat replied.

"They...... After all, they are of the same clan, and they will definitely not do their best. ”

"I don't need them to do it, but I'm sure they can get the word in place. Ashrufat replied. "Tell those who are hiding and refusing to give in, five days...... I gave them a choice. They can choose to live to serve me or die to serve me!"

The obvious callousness in his words was enough to send shivers down the spine. As Zod stepped back from the tent, several other ears eavesdropping outside the tent quietly left.

"Master, that's it. In her mind, Carrie said proudly. "You have to think of 'rumors' as your weapon, and it can help you solve a lot of problems. ”

"Is that really enough?" asked Ashrufat.

"Well, it's as simple as that. Your words can be conveyed in this way, and in a matter of days, they can be spread throughout the plain. Of course, you can't really stick to a 'five days' timeline. ”

Ashrufa nodded. Time is running out, and he must pack everything here as soon as possible. According to his plan, he will not continue to occupy Mir City and the Ryan people to fight a "decisive battle outside the country", but will reduce the value of Mill City as an outpost as much as possible, and delay the Ryan people's advance.

Spring has arrived, and in two months it will be almost summer. In the summer, heavy rains (especially during the rainy season) occur frequently, and the weather becomes hot. Both of these will effectively reduce the mobility and sustained combat capabilities of human armies, while the undead legions will be virtually unaffected. Not to mention the widespread epidemics that are particularly prone to occur in the summer.

As long as the summer is delayed, the war will be dragged on until the autumn and winter. From head to toe, he will have more than half a year to recover his military strength, and then he will be able to basically recover the losses of this war with the Bin.

However, there was a vague sense of a great threat in Ashrufat's heart. The guy he had met once, named Beller—if that was the one in command, then Ashrufat's little trick wouldn't have worked. Fortunately, he knew that Beller was not a nobleman loyal to the Kingdom of Ryan.

Even in a country as close as St. Jean and Cassilos, where the royal family is integrated, it is a very rare and remarkable event for St. Jean to send an excellent general like Thomas to command the army of the allies. In comparison, the relationship between Tiberius and Ryan is far behind, why can't it be the turn of Bayor, who is a foreigner, to be the coach, right?

"Bayral......" Essrufat whispered the name. Neil has already inquired about the news, and it is easy to find out, so there should be news in the near future.

But if it was really a coincidence or a ghost, Bayrell really became the commander of Ryan's army...... Ashruphat strove the superfluous thought out of his mind. He preferred not to think about it. Let's think about something more straightforward, how to deal with so many people in the Bin.

To be honest, although West Vania is sparsely populated, it takes a lot of thought to create such a place and realize the "divide and conquer" strategy in Carrie's plan.

While Ashrufat was contemplating his problem, Belle sneezed firmly at a considerable distance from him.

"Ahh......h Who's talking about me?" Béral rubbed his nose as he opened a letter. This letter is not one of those of unknown origin, as it is clearly stamped with the royal seal of King Tiberius.
