Chapter 845: Finding another way and finding another way
After hearing Lei Xiao's words, all the subordinates were excited and looked excited.
Lei Xiao nodded to the subordinates present and said, "Okay, the war is about to begin, let's start making the final preparations."
After finishing speaking, Lei Xiao returned to the territory instantly under Jiang Li's teleportation.
Now that various legions have arrived at Wangxing City one after another, Lei Xiao still has one key thing to do before the soldiers have a good rest.
That is to completely change the uniforms of the soldiers to further enhance their combat effectiveness.
Although our overall strength cannot match our opponents, we must at least be better than our opponents in terms of equipment to make up for the gap in strength.
According to the planned plan, Lei Xiao first selected a full set of third-level equipment for the four main legions led by Orr, Hodder, Benson and Rose Marquis.
Judging from Lei Xiao's current equipment reserves, it is not difficult to do this.
On this basis, Lei Xiao also distributed a large number of low-level magic scrolls and low-level magic potions to the soldiers of the four main legions.
In particular, healing potions that reduce casualties are available to everyone.
These main legions with the strongest combat power and the highest loyalty are the targets that Lei Xiao will focus on training in the future. Naturally, the smaller the losses, the better.
Later, Lei Xiao distributed a full set of second-level high-quality equipment to 10 new recruits arriving one after another.
After fully supplying the main army, the reserves of potions and magic scrolls are already relatively limited.
Therefore, Lei Xiao temporarily allocated a corresponding number of potions and magic scrolls to veteran commanders above the level of squad leader according to the organization of combat squad or above, and then the commanders would allocate and use them themselves.
As for the three surrendered legions that have not yet arrived, Lei Xiao took a middle value. The equipment was rationed according to the standards of the main legion, and the potions and magic scrolls were rationed according to the standards of the new legion. Silver carp
The Moon Wolf Clan soldiers led by Bolen were all equipped with the most exquisite third-level equipment, as well as corresponding potions and magic scrolls.
In addition, Lei Xiao also equipped Wangxing City with an additional 500 magic cannons and a corresponding number of magic light crystals.
In addition to the previous configurations of each legion, the number of magic cannons in Wangxing City has reached a total of 1,000, which is already an extremely impressive number.
As for the three important locations in the Demonic Forest, Luolong City, and the Mountain Fortress, Lei Xiao also added 500 magic cannons to each of them, and all of them were equipped with magic light crystals.
During this process, Lei Xiao also upgraded and replaced the second-level equipment and supplied money and food to the garrison of the Mountain Fort Fortress under Bai Lao as agreed.
Since the two mercenary legions led by Randall entered the Hillfort Fortress yesterday, the total number of defenders in the Hillfort Fortress has exceeded the size of four legions.
Among them, the remaining 13,000 new nobles and traditional nobles recruited troops. Lei Xiao did not disband them, but temporarily calmed them down with money.
After all, the enemy is currently facing a formidable enemy, so it is most appropriate to keep this force within control.
As for the cities under his command, Lei Xiao also secretly deployed some magic cannons according to their scale and importance to ensure that they would not be easily captured by small groups of enemies that might appear.
At this point, all the magic light crystals owned by Lei Xiao have been deployed, except for 100 spare ones.
Finally, Lei Xiao also brought hundreds of thousands of magic arrows, all of which were also distributed to Wangxing City, which will further enhance Wangxing City's defense capabilities.
Since Jiangli has a large storage space and an extremely convenient transmission network, it didn't take long for Lei Xiao to successfully complete everything.
"Okay, I'll leave the rest to you. The Strengthening Pills and Qi Condensing Pills I left behind must be distributed as soon as possible."
In the meeting hall of the City Lord's Mansion in Wangxing City, Lei Xiao nodded to the commanders and subordinates, and then returned to the territory with the main subordinates.
Returning to the heavily guarded territory, even though it was late at night, Lei Xiao did not rest.
Instead, he took advantage of the moonlight to upgrade all the equipment that Frank and other new subordinates had replaced, making the equipment library that had been reduced become full again.
"Is there another day left?"
After everything was completed, Lei Xiao leaned on the boss's chair in the territorial office, his eyes deep and serious.
So far, he has done everything he can, and the rest is just waiting for the decisive battle to begin.
"How will the opponent find another way?"
Lei Xiao recalled the discussion at the meeting today, and with a wave of his hand, the sand table that was originally in the meeting hall on the first floor of the mansion immediately appeared in the office.
Lei Xiao stared at the distribution of our forces on the sand table and nodded thoughtfully.
Except for Wangxing City on the Stargazing Corridor, the other areas under his control are surrounded by two vast and continuous mountains, which hardly gives the opponent any possibility to find another way.
"If the opponent is only harassing by elite forces, I don't care."
Lei Xiao stared at the distribution of our forces on the sand table and nodded thoughtfully.
"After all, I already have seven third-level elite squadrons in my hand. I can also use Jiang Li's teleportation array to quickly move to any corner. I can't disperse my troops with just a small force."
"But there is one thing that will really make it difficult for me, and that is the top warriors deployed by the opponent."
Lei Xiao frowned slightly and began to think about the fifth-level powerhouse that might appear on the other side this time. Silver carp
First of all, not to mention the eldest prince who is supported by the traditional nobles, after the disappearance of the white knight, it seems that only the black duke of unknown origin is left.
Judging from the white knight's description, the Black Duke's strength is at least level five and five-star, even higher than that of the Nightmare Knight. This has already surpassed the strength of Jiang Li, the strongest subordinate in the territory.
After all, Jiang Li had just recovered to the fifth level of strength, and had not yet reached the peak level of the fifth level before she failed to advance.
"Currently, apart from the fact that my strength is above level five and five stars, I know nothing about the Black Duke, let alone what kind of force is standing behind him, but in terms of strength alone, this guy is definitely not easy to deal with.
."
Lei Xiao's brows were almost twisted into a ball, and he tapped the sand table table with his fingers.
Secondly, the second prince supported by the new nobles is the most terrifying dark horse. After all, behind the second prince stands the Black Abyss Brotherhood with unfathomable strength.
"Including the Nightmare Knight, I have killed three brotherhood Shuras, No. 4, 7, and 9, but this also shows that there are at least six fifth-level powerhouses in the Black Abyss Brotherhood." Silver Carp
"As long as the opponent sends two Shura this time, plus the Black Duke, it will be enough to equal my top combat power. If there is one more Shura, it will be quite difficult."
"What if there are more than two fifth-level strong men? Coupled with the elite power of other brotherhood strong men and noble forces, this is enough to turn my empty rear upside down."
Thinking of this, a few drops of cold sweat immediately fell from Lei Xiao's forehead.
Once things really get to that point, I will become very passive.
And it is certain that after the defeat of the Nightmare Knight, the Brotherhood will definitely send a stronger Shura to join the battle this time, which will undoubtedly make the situation more difficult.
With Gracilaria, Polygonum cuspidatum, and Hong Ye all unable to escape, the only way he could deal with it was to mobilize a third-level squadron to deal with it.
"Theoretically speaking, although the overall combat strength of each of the third-level elite squadrons under my command is comparable to that of a fifth-level strongman, Tiger Sticks and Hong Ye can kill even a fourth-level strongman with one strike, let alone
He is a third-level powerhouse." Silver Carp
"The third-level elite squadron in my hand is mainly used for tactical strikes, rather than becoming the target of the opponent's tactical strikes."
Lei Xiao slowly took a deep breath and his eyes became more serious.
However, if it was really urgent, I wouldn't be able to take care of so much.
After all, once a fire breaks out in the backyard, it will indeed greatly affect the morale of the front line, making it easier for the other party to find opportunities to take advantage.
But even so, with the strength of Huzhang and Hongye, it would probably be extremely difficult to deal with a strong opponent of level 5 or above with five stars, and the outcome would even be unpredictable.
Just when Lei Xiao thought of this, the ajar door was gently opened, and Ariel walked in carrying a pot of steaming black tea.
Seeing Lei Xiao's extremely solemn look, Princess Lengyan immediately realized what was going on.
I saw her gently placing the teapot on the coffee table aside, while moving lightly in front of Lei Xiao, and said softly: "Lord, are you thinking about the opponent's fifth-level strongman? Once the opponent's
If the top combat power exceeds ours, things will become more difficult, right?"
"I didn't expect that my dear princess could see through my mind at a glance."
Lei Xiao took Ariel into his arms, smiled helplessly and said: "At the meeting, everyone already said that this time the other party must be prepared and will definitely target our forces.
It is almost inevitable to carry out corresponding countermeasures.”
"That's true, but the lord has more than just three fifth-level warriors under his command."
Ariel obediently pressed herself against Lei Xiao's chest, smiled and said: "Don't forget there are Xiao Huan and Xiao Zhao. Although their energy is relatively limited, they can hold back a genuine fifth-level powerhouse in a short period of time.
, there is still no problem.”
"Yes, I almost forgot about it."
Lei Xiao nodded suddenly, but then he said with a solemn expression: "Once the opponent also has the [Stone of God] in his hand, the matter will also reach a deadlock."
"Then why doesn't your lord find another way and continue to look for foreign aid?"
Ariel felt the warmth coming from Lei Xiao's chest, and still maintained a faint smile on her delicate face: "I believe that with the courage of the lord, I can easily do this."
"Similarly find another way and continue to look for foreign aid?"
After hearing the prompt from Princess Lengyan in his arms, Lei Xiao's brain began to spin rapidly, and it soon became clear: "Ariel, you mean to seek help from Saint Teresa of the Moon Palace?"
"That's right, Lord, although Saint Teresa of the Moon Temple has just been promoted to the fifth level, she is still a genuine country-level powerhouse after all, and she must have a powerful trump card for the Dark Elf Kingdom."
Ariel nodded heavily, a look of solemnity appeared on her fair face, and she continued to speak her opinion.
"Lord, the current situation cannot be more obvious. Once we fail, not only this eastern region will be devastated, but will become the hunting ground and plaything of the fallen nobles again."
"Moreover, it will also free up the Black Abyss Brotherhood to deal with other obstructive opponents, or increase their efforts to secretly seek power and seize the throne."
Ariel said this while blinking her starry eyes, and then added: "The truth about lips dying and teeth falling cold must be understood by Saint Teresa of the Moon Palace, right?"
"It makes sense. As long as I have Theresa's reinforcements and the two stone elves, Xiao Huan and Xiao Zhao, I won't be in a hurry even if the opponent sends six fifth-level strong men at once.
."
With his heart suddenly enlightened, Lei Xiao directly lifted Ariel up, with an excited look on his face.
After settling his concerns, Lei Xiao suddenly felt sleepy and did nothing else. He returned to the Lord's Suite with Ariel.
…
The next morning, Lei Xiao and Ariel opened their eyes almost at the same time.
Immediately afterwards, Princess Leng Yan, whose neck turned red to purple, quickly left as fast as she could.
Lei Xiao smiled helplessly and began his daily practice.
After a while, Lei Xiao, neatly dressed, walked into the lord's office in high spirits.
Before heading to the Holy Night Kingdom to seek reinforcements from Teresa, Lei Xiao still had one last important thing to do, which was to summon the last Tier 3 elite squadron.
"Receive 60 first-level recruitment orders!"
After some upgrades, the number of third-level recruitment orders held by Lei Xiao has reached 122.
"So far, the population of the territory is "3882/4000". After summoning this third-level elite squadron, the matter of summoning new subordinates in batches can come to an end for the time being." Silver Carp
"Speaking of which, I wonder what kind of third-level elite force we can recruit this time?"
While looking forward to it in his heart, Lei Xiao thought so and started to work backwards, and soon completed his daily routine.
During this process, Lei Xiao also briefly mentioned the matter of the "Wandering Gate" with Qin Qian and other lords of the Xiao Shen Regiment.
She also ordered Qin Qian to start making preparations. When this life and death battle is over, the selected lords of the Xiaoshen Regiment can be sent to Vader.
Of course, if this life-and-death battle fails, everything will be out of the question, and all the lords in the entire area will soon be slaughtered.
"So, what I shoulder is not only the life and death of Ariel and other subordinates, but also the lives of so many lords. It's really a long way to go."
After closing the private message interface, Lei Xiao slowly took a deep breath and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Then, through his words, Lei Xiao gathered all the subordinates in the territory in front of the three miraculous buildings and began to welcome the new force.
"Then, let us witness the arrival of our new colleagues together."
Seeing that the subordinates had already lined up, Lei Xiao, who was standing at the front of the team, directly used 100 third-level recruitment orders.
