0 Eve

A few days after Jue's departure, guests arrived at Vagslo.

"Your Excellency Ying Ning, the army has been reorganized, and you can set off directly tomorrow. "Plus, I'll be with you on this operation as a strategist." ”

"Okay, I see. Ying Ning nodded.

After a few days of marching, Ying Ning arrived at the western battlefield where Vagsloh was located. According to the previous plan, Ying Ning and Juebing fought in two ways. Jue marched north with some of the defenders of the capital and made peace with Lisa, who was left behind in Kalan, before attacking the heart of the Eternal Night Forest, while Ying Ning marched to the west of the large granary and took with him part of Vargslo's troops as he passed through the Vagsloh garrison, and shifted Vagslo's tactical arrangements from offensive to defensive.

Although such a tactic would leave the capital's defenses empty, after discussion, the commanders agreed that it would be the right decision.

"Your Excellency Ying Ning, I will take you to a resting place, and please come with me. Denham said.

"How many troops are there this time?" asked Ying Ning.

"There are about 5,000 people, after all, the result of the discussion at the meeting is that although the large granary in the northwest may not be very attacked, it is still very dangerous if it is broken by the enemy. So we all pay more attention to this place. Denham said, "Tell Your Excellency Ying Ning in advance, if there is a battle at the station, I will command you to be the vanguard, is it no problem?"

Ying Ning nodded and said, "There's no problem, anyway, with my ability, I can't be in command." ”

Ying Ning did not get the command is Jue's proposal, which Ying Ning knows.

Because in the eyes of Vagaslo, if Yingning was to be the commander, they would lose an excellent vanguard, and then they would lack the necessary front-line conditions for victory in the battle. And Jue here also discussed the matter of conducting with Ying Ning, and Jue also trained Ying Ning in simulated command. How to say it, Ying Ning's performance is unsatisfactory, I really can't see Kai Ying Ning's command ability, although sometimes I can see through the opponent's intentions, but it is limited to a part, if it is put into a large-scale battle, it will be overstretched. Therefore, Jue did not recommend that Ying Ning take command of the power.

However, Ying Ning is also self-aware and is not dissatisfied because of this incident...... If you have a good temper...... It's also an advantage of Yingning, or if you live with a good-tempered person like Shani, it's not realistic to grow a bad temper.

"But," said Denham, "if you go to the battlefield and have an accident, then it will be difficult for me to speak to Lord Jue." ”

"Dragons aren't that easy to kill. Ying Ning showed off her biceps.

"The only ones who can be so confident are the dragons. Denham smiled wryly.

Denham took Yingning to the tent and went out.

Ying Ning lay on the bed alone at a loss.

Idle...... I don't know when I'll be able to go back. How is the eldest lady doing now? It seems that Lord Bang said before I left that I would increase my training when I returned. As for Miss Mo Huayun's words...... She's even more terrifying than Jue. I don't have any expressions, and I speak in a weird way, and I steal my things to eat......

Mo Huayun ...... The surname Mo in the dragon clan is Mo...... Could it be that it is at the same level as the eldest lady?!wow~ Or is it possible to say that the family is also a family......

Just as Ying Ning was thinking, Denham was talking outside.

"Your Excellency Ying Ning, do you have time now?"

"Hmm, Lord Denham, please come in. Ying Ning got up and said after hearing Denham's voice.

Denham came in, along with some appetizers and a few bottles of wine.

"What are you here for?" asked Ying Ning, confused.

Denham pointed to the cushion next to him and asked, "Can you sit down?"

"Ahh Ying Ning said.

Denham sat down and put his things on the table, saying, "I have always liked to talk to my men before I go on a campaign. But it's never been possible to go on a journey with the dragons. ”

As he spoke, Denham poured a glass of wine for Ying Ning and said, "I heard that the dragon clan has always had a very good amount of wine and wine, I don't know if these wines can enter your mouth." ”

This is true for alcohol, after all, it is inherited from the past, but the amount of alcohol is ...... Some people really don't drink much.

Ying Ning took a sip of the wine in her hand as she spoke. I don't know if it's a preconceived consciousness, when talking about the amount of alcohol, Ying Ning's eyes will always appear in front of Xia Ni's appearance when he drinks - very terrifying.

"Have you fought before, except for those in Kalan City. ”

"Nope. It's just the first time to go to war like this. Ying Ning shook her head.

"First time?" Denham paused, "It's hard to believe that a record like Kahlan City was made by someone who is on the battlefield for the first time." ”

"That's all the commanding exploits of Taishou and Jue. Ying Ning smiled bitterly and said, "I am only responsible for executing orders and rushing forward." ”

"Lord Jue......" Denham nodded with his arms folded.

Ying Ning didn't care about Denham, but ate what the other party brought, after all, she had been walking for several days, and she was quite tired.

"By the way, what kind of existence is Lord Jue in Dragon City, why can't you feel the power of a dragon like you from his body?"

"That guy's background is very strange," Ying Ning said indifferently, "Although Her Royal Highness Ao Li had contact with Jue at the beginning, there are some discrepancies between what she asked and what we heard later...... It's not quite the same. Really, even His Highness dares to lie, what a bold guy. ”

Denham frowned slightly after hearing this, and then said, "I didn't expect that the rumor that the dragon princess picked up a strange person at the beginning was true......"

"Hmm, there are still such rumors?" Ying Ning stopped the chopsticks in her hand after hearing this.

"Ah, for example, some news within the big races will be transmitted from one to another, so we know these things too. ”

"This kind of thing can be regarded as interspersed with spies, is it really okay to tell me?" Ying Ning was a little flustered.

Denham laughed and said, "Ah, it's an open secret, after all, sometimes you can provide first-response support when other forces are in trouble, so as long as it doesn't involve internal affairs and military content, everyone will turn a blind eye." What I said just now was at most gossip about the dragon royal family. ”

"That's right. Ying Ning laughed twice and brought the topic of spy over.

"But what kind of existence is Lord Jue? At first glance, it looks like a dragon, but it doesn't feel like a dragon. ”

"It's said to be a half-dragon. Ying Ning said.

"Half-dragon?" Denham startled, for he had never heard of such a thing. So he asked, "Is it a hybrid of dragons and other races, a hybrid of human races?"

After hearing this, Ying Ning said with a blank face: "Can the royal race still mix with the human race?"

Since the high-ranking species used to like to fight, almost every high-ranking race provoked all races other than their own. As the so-called immortals fight, mortals suffer, and the battle between the high-level races makes the life of the low-level races not good. However, the orcs can be regarded as a low-end branch of the demon race, so they are protected by the demon race, and the dwarf race has signed a contract with the elves, so they also have the protection of the elves. There are a few Terran grandmothers who don't love their uncles, so the Terrans are crushed to death by all races. It is precisely because of this that the Terrans maintain a "side-looking" attitude towards other races, so there are basically no interracial marriages.

"No, but I heard that your dragon clan has a man who married a human race. ”

"Ah, do you mean collapse?"

"It's shocking, but I'm not really interested in it. "After all, our ancestors used to be Terrans." ”

Ying Ning nodded in response to him.

"But what kind of existence is Jue? I have obviously seen his documents say that he is of the human race. ”

"Maybe it used to be a Terran. I heard him say that he was 1,500 years old...... But believe it or not is our business, after all, that guy has hidden too many things from his affairs before, and we don't dare to believe anything. ”

Denham nodded.

yes, Jue......

Denham thought, and he couldn't help but recall an interesting phenomenon that he had read in the literature before—that for nearly 200 million years, there has always been a group of people who are very similar in description, and every time there is a record of him, it always represents a major turning point in history. Regardless of the type of person who is directly or indirectly involved in the turning point.

On the other side, Jue and his party came to Kalan City.

"See you again, Taishou. Jue said while shaking hands with Taishou.

"Ah, I didn't expect to meet you here. Thanks to you, otherwise today would have been my seven-day grave. ”

After seeing Jue, who was catching up with Taishou, Lisa interjected into the conversation between the two.

"How many people did Lord Jue bring this time?" asked Lisa without any emotion.

"Seven thousand. Jue said.

"Seven thousand?!, wouldn't that be the only thing left in the capital with about 30,000 defenders?" said Lisa.

30,000 defenders sounds like a lot, but for the Conservative base and the vampire capital, it is really a small number of defenders, and if you want to defend the capital, you need at least 40,000 troops.

"Lord Vagaslo's Western army hasn't returned to the capital yet, has it?" asked Lisa.

Jue nodded and said, "Although this is the case, don't worry. The west and the north are blocked by our men, and the enemy cannot enter. ”

"But even then you can't be so defenseless......

"You don't have to worry about that, I'll be responsible if something happens. Jue said confidently.

Even if someone does invade, I won't have any problem unlocking the power of the Silver Calamity. Just a little bit, really.

Just as Jue was thinking this, a scout came.

"Report, something unusual has been found in the northeast of the spring!"

Jue looked into the distance of the forest and said with a wry smile: "It's really early to come than to be lucky...... Prepare for the meeting!"

With that, Jue, Taishou, Lisa and the others walked into the conference room.

"So let's analyze the intelligence now. In the conference room, Jue said to the person who had the front-line intelligence.

"Understood. At about five o'clock this morning, our men sent news of the march of the enemy's army from the town on the border between Springs and the main cities of the north. At ten o'clock in the morning, the news came that the other party had entered the central area. Just now, the other party was already approaching the northeast of the spring. The number of enemy troops was about 10,000. ”

The number of 10,000 made everyone present feel a chill in their backs.

Jue looked at the map.

"What do you think?" Jue asked.

"The other side is supposed to be sending soldiers and supplies to the west for the Spring Land and using it as a base, and if this place is occupied by the enemy first, it may lead to a long-term standoff between Lord Vagoslo's army and the enemy. If we do this for a long time, it won't be good for us. I suggest sending troops immediately. Lisa said.

There was no city in the spring, but it was a large clearing north of the city of Kalan. Although Kasente passed through the Springs when preparing to attack Kahlan City, the Kaisente did not send troops there because of the easy to attack and difficult to defend terrain. After the battle at Kalan, the men of Kaycente retreated to the north of the springs.

Jue nodded and said, "What else, do you have any suggestions?"

There was no objection from the audience.

"Okay, it seems that we have agreed, so let's analyze the battle plan. Jue said, "You know the terrain better than I do, so can anyone come up with any reliable battle plan?"

"The spring is a hilly terrain, but there are many open spaces nearby, so if Lord Jue wants to use cavalry, it will be a good choice. ”

"Is that so...... But I am afraid that the defenders of the Kaisente in the forest will join up with the enemy's troops, so that the information that the Kaicente has will leak to the enemy. ”

"That means they know we have cavalry, right?" said someone else.

Jue nodded and said: "This situation is the most dangerous, because although the cavalry is highly mobile, it will definitely die if it is hit, so I personally want to avoid the risk on the cavalry's side." ”

"What if the cavalry is made the late part of the battle, as was the case before?" said Taimori, "but a group of cavalry will come around from behind, so that they can deal a fatal blow to the opponent in the later stages of the battle." ”

"But there are many trees outside the springs, so if you want to march in time, it is not suitable at all. It would be fatal for us to drag on when we needed support. "Objections have been raised.

"The terrain outside the spring is not out of the question. Lisa nodded.

"Speaking of the last battle...... How many people are left?" Jue asked.

"I think we wiped out nearly two hundred people in the last battle, and the rest of the wounded ...... The opponent should still have an average combat power left, that is, about a thousand. "Tai said that he thought about it for a while.

"What are the opponent's troops?" Jue asked.

The person in charge of the report flipped through the information, and then said, "I'm really sorry, since the enemy is divided into small teams for confidential transportation this time, our people deduce that the mages should be two to three percent, and the warriors should be five to sixty percent. ”

"There are still a lot of enemies who don't know the class. Jue thought with a frown.

"Also," said the intelligence officer, "there is a theory that the leader of the opposing party, Limo, was in the army sent by the enemy this time. ”

"Is Limo in the army this time?, will we meet?" asked Lisa.

After comparing several documents, the intelligence officer said, "I don't know, because there is also information that there is still a group of troops from the north that are heading northwest, so we don't know exactly where Limo is." ”

"In that case, the problem is a bit serious. Jue pondered.

"But there is intelligence that the number of troops in the north-west is as high as fifteen thousand, so we can now assume that the enemy's hinterland is undefended. The intelligence officer said.

The intelligence officer's words shocked everyone present, because they did not expect the radicals to be so desperate. The defeat of any of the western, northwestern and central fronts now opened by the radicals would lead to a devastating overthrow of the radicals. One can't help but wonder what exactly makes radicals so crazy.

Jue's face was gloomy after hearing this.

Fifteen thousand...... I don't know if Yingning's side can hold it...... If you can't stand it, it's going to be really difficult. It's okay on our side, if we fail, we can still retreat to Kalan City, but if something happens to Yingning's side, it's really over.

"Did you tell Vagslo about the information about the northwest?" Jue asked.

"Not yet. ”

"Hurry up and report, fifteen thousand people is not a small number!" Jue said in a low voice.

The intelligence officer and the people present were obviously frightened by Jue's oppressive force, and they didn't dare to speak out, and the intelligence officer just nodded one after another.

Jue sighed when he saw the attitude of these people.

"Alright, the next step is to prepare for the battle in Springs. ”
