Tyre southeast line, left defense area.

Towering earthen walls connect the hills and heights one after another, forming a huge arc of defense. Behind the earthen walls were a large number of defensive towers, but due to lack of time, they had to be built of stones, but they were numerous.

As the commander-in-chief of the left defense area, Bivis habitually patrols the main city wall and the main guard tower defense line every day.

He was an excellent speaker and he regained the confidence of the soldiers after every post-tour speech.

Bivis ordered the construction of a tower near the frontline battlefield in the central highlands, where he was most conspicuous in his defense area, and he set up this tower as his front-line command post. After patrolling the walls every day, Bevis would stay on this tower, as it was a great place to see the details of the battle ahead, and at the same time, he could be seen by the soldiers.

As one of the few generals in the empire who climbed from the bottom to the top, Bivis knew better than anyone that the first thing to do in order to win a war was to convince his soldiers that it was a war that was to be won.

Only in a victorious war will soldiers have hope of survival, and hopeful war soldiers will be truly willing to give everything to block a future.

Today is the morning of the fourth day when the elven 100,000 main forces besieged the left defense line of Tyre Town,

That is, the morning of February 24.

There was a vast fog between the mountains and hills, and the elves' attack stopped in the middle of the night because of the vast white fog. At this moment, the sun on the horizon was only half exposed, and countless torches moved back and forth on the defense line full of early sunset.

Inside the tower's command post, Bivis leaned against a cold chair watered with steel in a rare suit of heavy armor, staring at a letter he held with a serious expression and a little murderous intent.

To be precise, a handwritten letter from the Speaker of the Principality of Suluk, Fipott Bob.

"It's come this far!" Bivis said to himself.

"It's an inevitable result, but it's a good outcome. The smile on the face of Griffitz, the deputy chief of staff of the left defense zone next to Bivis, was somewhat exaggerated in the light.

"Time flies quite quickly, thirteen years have passed in the blink of an eye. Bevis suddenly fell into a memory, "You said uncle, they are now..."

"Don't let me remember them!" Griffitz smiled.

Actually, Bivis wasn't a bounty hunter long ago, as his file suggests...

He's a bandit!

He doesn't have the right to choose his life, because he is an abandoned baby, raised by a group of mountain bandits.

Later, Bivis naturally became a mountain bandit.

At the age of sixteen, he learned about the wonderful world outside from the mouth of a down-and-out aristocratic captive, and from then on he began to grow tired of the dark life of the mountain bandits.

When he was nineteen years old, a crazy plan was born in his heart.

On that day, as it is today, the mountains were full of mist.

On that day, he teamed up with Griffitz to kill the bandit uncle who raised them, and took their head to become a registered bounty hunter!

Six years later, the War for the Throne broke out, and the two men immediately joined Emperor Laubert's side. And at that time, they didn't even know that Laubert was at an absolute disadvantage in the war, they only knew that the conditions offered by the emperor made them unable to refuse!

The decision proved to be the right one, and after the war on the throne, they received the title promised by the emperor.

The two who received the knighthood did not stay in the imperial capital to enjoy themselves like the others, they chose to serve in the army and obtained a good position.

Two years later, Bivis seized the opportunity to reach Nepdo Quint, the Empire's Five Great Military Guardian Families.

It happened that at this time, the army was mired in a long period of corruption, and the visionary Bevis did not choose to be as corrupt and degenerate as his colleagues.

As a result, his 'integrity' was quickly noticed by Nepdo Quint, and since then he has risen all the way up in the army.

Before the outbreak of the Orc War, Bivis was already the fifth deputy in the military department.

After the Orc War, the commander of the Third Legion was removed from his post due to corruption, and Bivis was offered the position of Commander of the Third Legion on the recommendation of Nepdo-Quint.

At the time, he, like other nobles and generals, thought it was a simple battle. The ensuing series of events was completely unexpected, and the battle of Hatis directly sent him to prison.

A few months later, the Empire's war in Elok was halted, and Nepdo Quint was able to take command of the Ministry of War on the recommendation of Prime Minister Duke Nick, who was able to escape from prison with the help of Nepdo Quint and become a true high-ranking figure in the Imperial Military Department.

However, by this time, the empire was already at sunset, and Bevis had lost faith in the empire. Just like he lost faith in his uncles a dozen years ago.

At this time, the spies of the Principality of Suluk came up.

At that time, Bivis did not agree, because he felt that the merchants of the Eluk Territory were just puppets of the elves, and the main reason was that he was not satisfied with the other party's conditions.

However, all this changed after Duke Nick stepped down as Prime Minister...

Since July last year, Beavis has officially reached an agreement with the Grand Duchy of Suluk.

More than a month ago, the reason why the elves were able to break through the dense defensive line on the left in that short period of time was because Bivis deliberately released water, but later due to internal problems of the coalition forces, he had to temporarily change his plan. Over the course of a month after that, he took advantage of Nepdo Quint's trust in him to keep the drama between him and the elves open.

But as the main force of the elves pressed in, his play was about to be unable to continue.

But it doesn't matter,

Because today, the show will be over!

Thinking of this, Bivis's eyes flashed coldly, and he stared at Griffitz beside him and whispered, "Those generals who don't obey our orders are all gathered in the conference room in the side hall. His voice became quieter and quieter, "You go and get this done... The sooner the better!"

"Don't worry!" Griffiths grinned, the armor on his body as he bent down and saluted, and as he straightened up, Bivis waved his hand.

The sound of departing footsteps was heard quickly, and it faded away...

At this moment, in the command post, all the staff officers have been dismissed, and when the footsteps are completely hidden in the darkness, the former noisy command post has become terrifyingly quiet.

Bivis leaned back in his chair and stared at the soldiers patrolling back and forth in the fog.

The fog slowly dissipated as the sun's rays grew stronger and stronger, and the door of the command post was pushed open through the outer door as the walls revealed their outlines in the thick fog.

"Pedaling"

The sound of footsteps at this time was different from Griffiths's steadiness, and it was light and had a messy feeling.

Bivis frowned, "You should learn to be steady. ”

"I'm sorry, father. "Coming in was Bivis's eldest son and only son, Marc Hill Bivis.

Young Marciel stood beside the steel chair of Bevis, his whole body trembling with nervousness, the blood dripping from the knight's armor on the ground with a sound like "tick, tick, tick!" in the silent command post.

"How's it going?" said Bivis, standing up and looking at his son.

"Everyone, including Uncle Griffiths, has been killed!" Markhill's voice was hoarse like the dry throat of a traveler who had traveled in the desert for months.

"Great," Bivis stretched out his big hand and rubbed it hard against his son's face, "Now, let's go make a big fuss." ”

...

In the town of Tyre, in the conference room of the High Command of the War Zone, Emperor Sinda had a routine daily morning stand-up.

The Deputy Governor of Lion Castle, Botlem Bobz, was reporting on the various battle reports, and all the members of the War Executive Committee were sitting in the conference room, except for the Deputy Commander-in-Chief, Duke Eric.

"The situation on the battlefield in the middle lane is now stable, after three days of fighting, the loss of our 80,000 main elite is not large, although the elven coalition army they attacked from both sides is more than 10,000, but due to factors such as deployment and geographical environment, it is at an obvious disadvantage. "According to the deduction of the General Staff, in a maximum of three days, our situation in the middle will be fully opened." ”

As he spoke, he gestured on the map, "When the coalition forces coming from the siege are broken in the middle, you can immediately break through to the left and find a way to besiege the 100,000 main elves in the hilly area outside the left defense line." ”

"What I want to know is, what is the current situation in the left defense area?" Nepdo Quint couldn't help but ask, he didn't worry about anything these days, he was worried about the situation in the left defense area.

He had even intended to go to the left front to direct the battle himself, but was decisively rejected by Imperial Prime Minister Woz Pedro.

"Viscount Bivis has shown great valor, he is on the front lines of the war every day, the morale of the legionnaires is also high, and the scouts of the headquarters have found that the main elven force is still on the periphery of the city walls!" replied Botelem Bobz quickly, "This is good news for us. ”

"Viscount Bivis deserves a commendation for his performance. The smile on the young Emperor Sinda's face was very palpable.

"I'd like to go to the Left Sector for myself," said Nepdo-Kunt, looking at the Emperor at the Front, "The war trend in the Left Sector is a bit strange, because with the defensive strength there, it is impossible to hold on to the uninterrupted assault of the 100,000-strong army for three days and nights without the slightest fatigue after withstanding a month of continuous attacks. ”

"I agree with the words of the Marquis of Nepdo... Viscount Beavis may be heroic, but I fear he is too valian. "The defeat at the Battle of Hattis two years ago left Viscount Bevis in prison for an unpleasant time, and this war was the most important battle since he was released from prison, and I fear that he was too eager to show himself and falsely reported his military situation. ”

"Knight Locks, most of the military reports in the left defense area are scouts sent by our headquarters..."

"I'm at the same time the words of the Knight of Rocks. Stu Garra interrupted Botlem's formulaic intelligence briefing, "War on the left is crucial to our plans, I think—" he looked at Imperial Prime Minister Woz Pedro, "Whatever the war is going on, reinforcements should be sent as soon as possible... Besides, three days is enough, and I don't think we need to keep the 50,000 elites transferred from Kwyn. ”

Woz Pedro did not look at the Minister of Finance, he carefully flipped through the stack of papers on his desk, and when Stu Garra's words landed, and all eyes looked at him, he closed the papers and stood up and walked to the map, he met everyone's eyes and said:

"On the left defensive line, we have attracted 100,000 of the main force of the Elven Coalition with more than 10,000 troops, and on the middle battlefield, the Elven Coalition has dispatched almost the same number of troops as us to stop the advance of our main force... At the same time, our intelligence indicates that the elves have deployed at least 50,000 troops in the eastern territories to prevent Kru from raiding from the Kumar fortress. ”

Woz Pedro's fist suddenly slammed into Elok City on the map, "That is, there should be no formed troops stationed in the area around Elok City at this moment!"

The last sentence of the imperial prime minister was sonorous and powerful, which made everyone present look sideways, and Emperor Sinda's eyes lit up, and his body leaning on the sofa leaned forward unconsciously.

"But the premise is that the left defense line must independently defend against the elven army of 100,000 for at least ten days, and can you guarantee that the main elven force will not transfer the army back to help?" Nepdo-Quint immediately objected, "Your plan is too dangerous!"

"Why do we have to keep the elven army of 100,000 out of the line?" Woz Pedro smiled and looked at Nepdo Quint, "Do you think that we can't stop the advance of the elven army with the strength of the entire Suke Plain?"

"Do you want to—" Nepdo-Quint bounced up from his seat, his face full of incredulity as he looked at the man chatting under the map.

"That's why you're stockpiling supplies in the mid sector?" said Stu-Gara with a frown, "You want to cut off the front and back connections of the elven coalition forces, defeat the main elven force with the power of the people of the Suk Plains, and then divide and annihilate the coalition forces led by Elok?"

"At this moment, the supplies we have hoarded in the Central Defense Area are enough to meet the 100,000 troops of Wen Pompo for two months!" Woz Pedro grinned, he smiled proudly, "At the same time, as early as a month ago, I have ordered the evacuation of supplies from Hattis Town, Tyre Town, and most of the villages and towns in the northern region of the Suke Plain, if the elves' 100,000 troops enter the Suk Plain, they will immediately find that they are in a desperate situation!"

"You ordered the gathering of supplies a month ago because of this plan?" said Emperor Sinda with obvious displeasure on his face, as Woz Pedro had not told him about his plan.

"The less people know about this plan, the better, Your Majesty. "Woz-Pedro is humble like a servant," and there is ample evidence that there are rebel rats in the upper echelons of the empire. ”

"Aren't you afraid now?" the emperor's tone was a little cold, but there was no indifference just now

"Because the current elven troops have long since entered my trap. Woz-Pedro's smile looked a little weird, "Viscount Bivis helped me lure them in...", he looked at Nepdo Quint, "I'll tell you, Viscount Bivis was actually rebelled against by the rebels led by Elok last year!"

"Before this meeting took place, I had ordered the 50,000 elites in the area around Tyre to quickly advance towards the walls of the Central Defense District. The Imperial Prime Minister spread his hands and scanned the people in the conference room, "We only have one hour, and in an hour we will have to evacuate Tyre, because the elven army of 100,000 is rushing here!"
