There are a total of five mountain passes that can be used to safely cross the Fengdi Mountains. Advance through the five passes in front of the five checkpoints and cross this cursed mountain range.
Although you can cross mountains in other places, the level of safety and danger is different from these five mountain trails.
The orc army chose these special routes to cross the mountains in order to make a sneak attack. Even if they sent out all the elites, in fact, after successfully crossing the mountains, only half of the troops that could fight were left. The missing half was either seriously injured or was injured.
It disappeared in the process.
For humans, there is no need to take risks at the moment, so they naturally choose a safe route to pass.
After the preliminary plan was finalized, the army began to take action.
Although this war is not a tense battle against time. But if everyone wants to reach the Gate of the Abyss before the orc army returns to defend, they must move quickly. Instead of taking action only after everything is well prepared.
As you can imagine, when the orc army returns to defense, it will have to spend several times more effort to achieve the same goal. So even if the action is a bit hasty, as long as the supplies can keep up, even if there are some omissions, the first-line command below will
Officials will also find ways to overcome it.
The first group of troops that crossed the Wind Emperor Mountains met up with the vanguard on the outpost. The first thing they did was to build a supply camp.
The cursed Fengdi Mountain Range is a difficult level of natural danger. Even if you choose the safest route, it is still difficult to climb.
In comparison, although the terrain after crossing the Fengdi Mountains is mainly hilly, it is still passable by vehicles such as carriages and cars. This means that the speed of marching will be greatly increased, but the difficulty of transporting supplies will not be
relative decline.
The faster marching speed means that the supply team has to cover a longer distance to catch up with the troops in front. In other words, although the supply team does not have to cross the mountain road, they have to run farther to complete the mission.
Therefore, it is very important to establish a supply depot on the north side of the mountain range. Divide the supply route into two sections and hand them over to the teams that are good at each. One section is responsible for browsing the Fengdi Mountains, and the other section is sent from the supply depot to the troops.
of.
What the first batch of troops and outposts did was to establish supply depots. An endless supply of supplies was also sent forward from the base camp in the south of the mountain range.
Soon, the follow-up troops also quickly followed up. According to the diversion of the five checkpoints and the five mountain roads, they simply formed five routes to march north.
Anyway, there are not many troops that can march through the mountains at the same time. Even if they stay in the supply camp in the north to repair for a period of time and gather enough teams before setting off, the number of troops is still limited.
Therefore, the young officers on the staff did not deliberately find more marching routes to the north. At most, they ordered certain units to branch off the route and deal with some enemies who were still in their original positions and did not move.
.
When only the defenders maintaining the defense line were left in the south, and most of the troops crossed the Fengdi Mountains, the base camp followed suit and moved to the north of the mountain. And then the old Duke Kawei led his own army and also headed north.
, rather than staying in the rear area.
The existing command system in Lost Land is not sufficient to allow commanders to stay far away from the front line.
No one would want to use magic to transmit those large and complicated military orders, because the cost of doing so is too high. Magicians are also unwilling to reduce themselves to the existence of order soldiers.
It is possible to use the forum. But the old Kaweigong, who is familiar with the confidentiality shortcomings of the forum, does not want to put this crucial task on a defective tool.
Therefore, in order to ensure the smooth flow of orders, he still followed the old method and followed the large troops forward. He even stood on the front line when necessary.
The Twin Griffins were not idle during this period. Ezio, who did not belong to the airship force establishment of the Haider Empire and did not need to defend a certain section of defense, and also had a ground force, was assigned to the airship force directly under the Hydel Empire.
In the army of old Duke Kawei.
The regular legions affiliated with the Gwana Empire still maintain their organization and have a certain degree of independence. These ten armies, which are recognized as the most powerful, are placed at the forefront of attacking the enemy according to their respective characteristics.
The Chinese army directly under the old Duke Kawei was composed of private soldiers of some nobles who were friendly with him, and most of them were small nobles.
On the one hand, it is because the big nobles will not easily submit to others. Instead of using their power to force them to submit, it is better to maintain a certain degree of independence. On the other hand, if the army of the small nobles does not have a strong enough leader, it will be as difficult as scattered sand.
command.
Therefore, every 'army' preparing to counterattack is composed of one or two big nobles, leading a group of small nobles. Nobles from the same country are not limited to forming an army. Anyway, for nobles, sometimes their status is important.
More important than which king or emperor it belongs to.
Almost all of Ezio's team came from elementary schools and were members of the fraternity. Unless their achievements were outstanding, it would be difficult for such a wild team to win the favor of the nobles. After all, not being from a noble family sometimes meant a lack of resources.
But unfortunately, Ezio's team was one of the main forces in the retreat. In terms of merit, not many people could surpass this team.
Even the regular legions of the empire are only well-equipped and well-trained. In terms of actual military exploits, the long-peaceful Mystery has no room for these elite legions. They are not as good as those who have fought in the war and escaped unscathed.
The team is quite normal.
Therefore, when reorganizing the legion, Ezio's team had many powerful nobles reaching out to recruit them.
However, the airship Twin Griffins, which was also in Ezio's team, was the property of the Grand Duke Kawei's family. The old Duke Kawei took the initiative and placed the airship under Ezio's command.
This is considered a loan, not just giving it away.
Coupled with the relationship between the old man and the magician, as well as the debt between the person from the elementary school and the magician, the old Kaweigong easily brought Ezio's team into the direct system.
Ezio was not dissatisfied at all when he was incorporated into the central army, which seemed unlikely to stay at the front line. This was not to say that he was content to stay in a safe place, but that damn instinct gave him another warning.
News.
The old tactics of the orcs are to attack in the east and west, divert the tiger away from the mountain, and then attack the enemy's weak spot with the main force to expand the results in one go!
This series of combos is of course easy to use, so the orcs use it over and over again. Sometimes it doesn't matter if they are discovered, then the sheep attack becomes the main attack, and the main attack becomes a head-to-head attack. When the time comes, the brave one will win.
Among the orcs, there is no shortage of people who are single-minded and would rather die in battle than retreat.
Of course, this is in a state of madness. If morale collapses, half-orcs are also the fastest running around. Half-orcs are such an extreme race.
The current actions of the human side seemed to Ezio to be part of a strategy to lure the enemy deeper. It was just that they didn't know where the enemy was ambushing.
You must know that in the 'Alliance of Demons and Orcs', the demons are the protagonist and the enemy! The orcs are just scraps, even if they are indeed more numerous.
But since the great retreat, Ezio has rarely seen traces of demons on the battlefield. Including the attack on the south of the Wind Emperor Mountains, the defense lines established under the leadership of the Gwana Empire were mainly composed of orc troops.
Although demons also appeared, the types of demons and the number of casualties were just for decoration and had nothing to do with the overall situation.
As for the subsequent airship rescue missions, they either encountered no enemies or encountered Orcs. The most unlucky thing was that the team like my own encountered masters of the level of Orcs and Semi-Orcs.
So, where did the devil go?
Ezio doesn't think that the demons passed through the gate of the abyss and went back to the abyss for vacation.
The demon's ever-changing abilities are the real thorn in his side!
I still remember that the most dangerous battle in the retreat was when a group of invisible demons attacked my team from the side. If the people from the Brotherhood hadn't stood up and blocked it, and the attacking demons weren't high-level and powerful enemies,
Maybe after that battle, there would be nothing to worry about.
So during the period when the base camp was moving, Ezio left the ground troops in the hands of the Brotherhood's deputies. He himself stayed on the Twin Griffins and kept circling, trying to find out where the enemy might ambush.
Or a means of surprise attack.
In the previous rescue mission, the airship troops in the sky were attracted to a distance by the orc team, and then the orcs semi-individually attacked the airship team that landed. Not only did they kill many people, but they also exploded a Heidel.
The Empire's old main airship.
This is just the method of half-orcs. In terms of cunning and scheming, demons are definitely even worse.
So this time when the enemy is lured deep, how will the demon alliance fight?
Or is this all the unfounded worries of a young man suffering from paranoia?
Staying in the control room of the Twin Griffin, Ezio, who had been restless, laughed at himself.
In fact, in the eyes of others, he acted as if his injuries had not been completely healed, although this was also the case. But compared to the hidden wounds on his body, the worries that Ezio found difficult to tell others were his real worries.
the root of.
There are the plans of the magician and the World Trees in the distance, and there are the evil ideas of the demon alliance that are not known to exist or not. No matter which one, Ezio is troubled, but no one can share the responsibility with him.
The former could not speak out. The latter said it for fear of affecting morale, but only a few people knew about it, and they worked with Ezio to look for possible clues. But these people were not as worried as Ezio.
However, some people are like crows, good and bad. Ezio's worries were finally confirmed to be not unfounded. The enemy who showed his fangs had indeed thrust his sword into the weakness of the human army!
After setting off from the base camp, when the Chinese army led by Mr. Kawei moved northward, they suddenly discovered that they were surrounded by enemies!
After being ravaged by the flames of war, enemies appeared from nowhere on the land that was supposed to be uninhabited. They were huge in number, several times the number of troops that had finally set out on the human side, and they were encircling them from all directions.
Ezio was the first to discover the enemy. He also knew why the arcane eye on the airship had not detected the enemy's existence before. It was because the enemy came from underground.
I don't know if it is another dug space to hide soldiers; or if it is an underground world space that already exists, but someone just dug another passage to the ground.
