With Prince Tulan's seal in hand and lurking liaison officers concocting various military orders, the Sibia Expeditionary Force's attack became even more powerful. In the next few days, this transport ship under the flag of the Erina Empire
The team went upstream, picking out key places along the way to attack, deceiving and launching surprise attacks one after another, and there were endless fires and floods...
They successively acquired several transfer stations, logistics production, and important storage areas. After grabbing enough ships, horses, ordnance and food, the expeditionary force also used large ships to fill in the narrow channels of the sea entrance and the canal.
The defense of the demon alliance on this line is basically zero, and the only garrison troops are mostly wiped out with the first target of the attack. The remaining private armed forces of the nobles and local garrison forces cannot judge the opponent's identity and the extent of the situation in a timely and effective manner. Wait until
By the time they could distinguish clearly, things had changed and these "damned Sibians" had long gone.
The Sibia Expeditionary Force carried by the fleet landed at different locations, usually with small forces in multiple batches, combing and destroying large areas, and pushing forward along the river bank with almost crazy methods. Their goal was not just logistics.
supply line, but to destroy all the important war facilities of the Demon Alliance within sight. On both sides of this wide canal, military warehouses and workshops are densely covered within a distance of more than a hundred miles, and the farther you go towards the Buluk Empire,
The farther away you go, the higher the density of these facilities.
As long as they were under the direct command of Cohen Keda, the Sibiya soldiers never knew what it meant to be afraid, nor what it meant to give up when things were good. They simply regarded this undefended land as their own training ground.
Wherever the wind blew, warehouses were burned down, bridges collapsed, pastures were littered with horse carcasses, and towns were in a state of disarray. The army pointed them out, gossiped, and caused chaos. Residents and nobles fled, and ownerless slaves ran all over the mountains and fields.
After absorbing the endless supplies from the rear of the Demon Alliance, especially after replenishing enough war horses, the ashore troops divided into three batches fully demonstrated their mobility, coming like wind, going like lightning, and fighting at the same time.
It is majestic and majestic, its whereabouts are strange when hiding, and its raids, plunders and killings are like lightning.
The fleet representing destruction and killing sailed against the current, like a bloody ghost from the abyss of sin. It grinned, wreaked havoc, and moved unhurriedly towards its target. Its outstretched wings stretched two hundred miles to the left and right.
Cover the area, let the ground drink blood, and let the sky ignite an eternal flame!
While the generals and nobles in the canal area were as anxious as ants on a hot pot, and they were all trying their best to take detours to deliver messages, the attack range of the three rounds of Sbia's army was gradually closing, and the transport fleet was approaching the Erina Empire one after another, attacking
The momentum is vaguely aimed at the Blue Empire in the center of the canal system - behind them, the Tulan Empire Canal Zone is already filled with smoke and a mess, with no targets worth attacking!
The demon coalition garrison troops in various secondary locations claimed that they had been attacked and besieged by Sibia's army, which made their commanders not sure who to believe. With great difficulty, they gathered together a sizable force and started staggeringly.
When they arrived at the canal, they were ambushed by the Sibia people. Everyone was killed in a mess. No one dared to report the losses in the name of the "regular coalition army"!
On the eighth day after the "Snow Dance Festival", the canal inspector of the Tulan Empire finally woke up. He was frightened out of his mind by a pile of battle reports flying in like snowflakes, and quickly sent the only flying soldier in his hand to call the police. But this team was unlucky.
As soon as the gargoyles rose into the sky, they were torn into pieces by the Sibians who had been watching them.
As a last resort, the canal inspector overstepped his authority and ordered the emergency beacon to be lit, only to find that all the antiques that had not been used for many years had been destroyed. In the end, he went through a lot of trouble to let the smoke rise, thinking that no matter how powerful the Sibian people were, they could not smoke the smoke into the sky.
Enter the lungs? Unexpectedly, the other party came with a more ruthless hand. According to the emperor's past teachings, the Sibia people had long known where to hide a drop of water so that it would not be discovered. Therefore, the Sibia people put it
All the mountains and forests along the way were on fire.
At this time, no matter how sharp your eyes are, you can't distinguish the smoke behind it from the smoke in the sky! Although it may be confusing, and some people may even suspect that there is an enemy, there is nothing trivial in the army, and not everyone can play with this fire.
, give them ten courages and they won’t dare to mess around. Even if there is an enemy situation, they still need to know which color of smoke to light and how many pillars to light.
Even when nothing was certain, the beacon tower behind still acted very cautiously, but the fire near the beacon tower could not be ignored. We had to stop and ask and check everywhere. So, the quick beacon relay was originally
It turned into a clumsy manual transmission... After a lot of back and forth, the news related to the fate of the Demon Alliance was not delivered at the first time. By the time the alarm arrived at the capital of the Tulan Empire, it was already after the "Snow Dance Festival"
It’s the thirteenth day!
After receiving the military report, Emperor Tulan was in a daze for a while, then shook his body and vomited half a mouthful of blood. With trembling hands, he drew his sword and slashed four guards. Only then did the six maids recover from the bad breath. As the king of a country,
Of course, the Tulan Emperor has basic military judgment. He knows that the Sibians are not coming for him, but to cut off the supplies on the front line. The Tulan Empire has been bullied in this disaster, and the only thing he has to do is
The thing is to get the news out so that you can save your head in the post-war reckoning.
For such urgent information, the speed of the fast horse messenger was far from enough, let alone the fast horse post road which was unavailable because it was close to the canal. His Majesty the Emperor of the Tulan Empire was troubled by this, and finally had a sudden change of heart and ordered
The Royal Workshop used the "spar airship" that had been researched but failed to produce results as a tool for this intelligence transmission. Since the blueprint was purchased with a large sum of money, the emperor himself was extremely interested in this thing and spent countless manpower and material resources.
, the research progress is far ahead of all other countries. Although I am not very sure, one of the more than ten samples, large and small, will be able to do the job, right?
Under the expectant gaze of Emperor Tulan, seventeen crystal airships with graceful shapes, full lines, and royal nobility from beginning to end were pulled out of the warehouse and started by magicians and technicians together.
Eight of them could not leave the ground, two rose three or four feet away and stopped moving. One lost control at thirty feet, pulled out a series of rolls, and then hit the holy statue of the Demon King in the Demon Palace, knocking the Demon King's head off.
Half of it was cut off, revealing a shoddy and corrupt project. There were three others that stubbornly somersaulted at a height of forty feet, and the other two collided with each other at a height of fifty feet and then fell down, standing tall and graceful.
Put it in the field...
Finally, the last crystal skyship carrying hope lived up to its trust and rose to the "high altitude" of eighty feet in one breath. However, it was shaken by the wind in the face and struggled forward for more than ten feet, and then "
"Bang" turned into an extremely dazzling fireball!
Seeing the fate of the empty ship that had consumed a huge amount of precious magic crystals, the dozen or so old men in charge of the royal workshop glanced at each other, and then without saying a word, they raised their necks almost at the same time, and happily drank a bottle of the medicine that had been with them day and night.
After swallowing the poisoned wine, he successfully straightened his legs before the emperor's guards arrived.
With this ending, Emperor Tulan was helpless. He had no choice but to risk being humiliated and seek help from the Demon Palace. After the Demon Palace mocked the emperor who only thought of himself afterward, the Demon Palace did not hesitate to use all possible means, and finally
Let this information leave the country. As for the time, of course no one can make any more demands... After all, the flying units sent by the Demon Palace, whether griffons or gargoyles, all received it from nursing homes and exhibition cabinets.
task.
Fortunately, everything was difficult at the beginning. After leaving the country, this information was sent to the coalition forces. As soon as they connected to the professional line, the speed of information transmission immediately increased, and finally caught up with the Sbia long-range army.
The pace of progress. But at this time, the Sibia people have brought the war into the Erina Empire section of the Grand Canal, and the Erina Empire's defense level is stronger than the Tulan Empire, although it cannot stop the Sibia army.
attacks, but the reporting speed is not slow.
The two urgent reports arrived at the Demon Alliance Military Headquarters in the capital of the Brook Empire almost at the same time, but the consequences were not what people wanted to see. This information directly caused a panic and several days of quarreling... A great blessing among misfortunes,
While the military generals were arguing with red faces, they did not forget to forward this information to the Chief of Operations. The elite gryphon knights, wearing stars and moons, sent the information to the front line as soon as possible.
Cohen Keda's fatal blow, like a dream, has completely changed the situation on the entire battlefield. The gentlemen of the coalition military headquarters have reached a consensus on at least one point, that is, stop asking where the Sibiya people came from. The key is
Yes they are already here!
Resist, must resist!
However, the elite troops of the Demon Alliance are poking at the front line. The idea of relying only on the "old, weak, sick and disabled" troops in the rear to resist Sibia's expeditionary force can only be a joke. The key to resistance lies in how to rely on the existing troops.
conditions to revitalize this disadvantageous battle situation.
Some generals demanded that all armed forces, including noble private soldiers, be immediately recruited, regardless of casualties, to use a sea of people to block the advance of the Sibia people; while some generals advocated giving up the territory that the Sibia expeditionary force had captured and was about to capture.
On this line, we must try our best to defend the Luc Empire section of the Grand Canal. As long as this section and Lake Spanei are not occupied by the Spian people, then the coalition forces will still have a chance to ensure the cost of the front line. In other words, if Sbia breaks into Span
Neihu, then the demon alliance will not be able to achieve the campaign objectives, and may even suffer defeat.
Failure! A taboo word. In the land of the Demon Alliance, this word and its derivatives are taboos among taboos!
The coalition military headquarters was in a panic. Orders drafted urgently by the staff were flying in all directions. All available and movable armed forces were rushing to the canal area. The old commander of the demon coalition army shouted in a trembling voice, "Everything is for the canal battle."
After the slogan, no one paid attention to the extent of the coalition's authority.
Under the cover of the nest, are there complete eggs? If the skin is gone, where will the hair be attached?
The garrison troops of surrounding empires, private soldiers of nobles, imperial guards, magicians' guilds, mercenary groups, and even larger associations and gangs all received mobilization orders. The order bluntly required them to organize themselves immediately and form a group.
Send a large-scale armed force to report to the local coalition camp and participate in the canal defense battle. Other forces must immediately make all preparations for local defense...
It is not that no one is worried about the effect of this, but at present, this is the only solution that has no solution. The coalition military headquarters does not know the size of the Sibia Expeditionary Force, the composition of its arms and other details. It only knows that they came directly from the mainland.
The southernmost Tulan Estuary entered the Demon Alliance. Along the way, they burned, killed, and looted like locusts in transit. Wherever they passed, the area of two hundred miles to the left and right turned into scorched earth, heading towards the Buluk Empire!
If they are allowed to reach Spanner Lake or Foxborough, not only this battle, but also all aspects of the Demon Alliance will be an unprecedented disaster, and the consequences will be unimaginable... Cohen Keda's move was too vicious.
We have just started, and the demons are already a little out of breath.
Everyone who knows the details understands that the Demon Alliance... no, the Demon Alliance's only and last hope is Duke Swice Hepburn who is far away on the front line, and his elite troops. They must turn around.
, we must first save the alliance from the fire and water. As for the attack on the mainland of Sibia, there are priorities, so we can only delay it for a while.
Therefore, in order to pave the way for the return of Duke Swice's troops, the military must first block the Sbia Expeditionary Force with the power at hand, and intercept their fleet, people, money, and materials at all costs.
!
More than 40 inland river transport ships accepted the secret order of the military department and sailed to three places with narrow rivers and fast currents in Bruk. They sank and blocked the waterway. The military even sacrificed the lives of the Alliance.
Shuguang Bridge, one of the top ten scenic spots - the only opening and closing bridge across the entire river in the entire canal basin, also blocks the waterway with its bridge body.
After doing all this, all that is left is to wait, waiting for the Sbia Expeditionary Force to attack, and waiting for the return of Duke Swiss's army...
Brooke Empire, the capital Foxburg, somewhere in the suburbs.
The officiant in gold robe, dressed in casual clothes, walked in the underground secret room passage of the Black Skull and Bones Society with heavy steps. The solemn-looking guard opened the door of the conference room for him, but the officiant did not nod to him as usual to thank him. It seemed that he
He looked very worried - the conference room was already full of people, and there was no doubt that everyone was waiting for the arrival of the golden-robed officiant.
"At such a tense time, I have to trouble everyone to come here despite their busy schedules. I deeply apologize." The golden-robed officiant sat down in his seat and went straight to the topic, "Because the situation has changed, I'm afraid I'm a little bad.
I have news to tell you."
"Is it about the war?" An old man present spoke. Even the mask on his face could not completely conceal his surprised expression. "God, is there any bad news? The current alliance cannot afford to be defeated.
Destroyed!"
"The coalition has not yet reached the point of saying defeat. I firmly believe that the battle situation is fine, but there are some subtle differences from what we expected." The golden-robed chief priest sighed and said slowly: "The first is in the Holy Capital of Sibia.
On the one hand, most of their imperial officials are absent, and the plan we want to carry out has lost part of its goals. Secondly, except for the troops fighting on the front line, other Sibia troops have been closed. Until now, the connections between the various provinces
They are all under surveillance, and our intelligence sources have been exhausted. Third, everyone knows...naturally, it was Cohen Al-Qaeda who used large-scale landing operations and personally led his troops to sneak attack on the rear of our coalition forces."
"This situation is not too different from what was expected in advance. We know that Cohen Kedar's resistance is very fierce, and we also have corresponding remedies." The previously surprised old man said: "It is true that Cohen Kedar's behavior
It will have a great impact on the current war situation, but this is not our business. The consequences will be borne by the coalition forces. Isn't this also within our plan?"
"We will leave all matters concerning the war to the Allied Forces Headquarters as agreed in advance." Another old man took over and said in a tone filled with strong majesty: "But in other aspects, we need to do a good job.
Regarding your own affairs, no matter how many targets there are in the Holy Capital, you must take action!"
"I have been implementing the plan. Viscount Gironde, known as the 'Farmer', has arrived at the coalition frontline headquarters in advance to assist the coalition in dealing with the Sibia army." The golden-robed officiant nodded, "This Chinese
The general is very experienced in dealing with Korn Keda, and he has a tough character and skillful tactics. He suffered a lot last time. Although the Sibi army came fiercely this time, as long as the coalition forces can turn around in time, there will be no major problems.
."
"We can't take risks. As a follow-up plan, we must give Sibia's army a fatal blow at a specific location!" The old man with a majestic tone paused for a moment, as if his body was pressed down by tens of millions of kilograms of weight.
Same, he said with difficulty: "It's time for the 'Stardust Knights' to appear."
It seemed that the old man's proposal was a huge event related to the overall situation. The scene fell into silence. Everyone participating in the meeting was thinking and considering. Although their faces were covered with masks, their slightly trembling bodies still revealed their nervousness.
Feeling.
"We train these special powers just to wait for the day when we can use them! Although we will pay a price, this is our mission..." After a long time, the golden-robed priest slowly raised his hand, "I agree to use the Stardust Knight
Regiments, locations and times of use are decided by those on the front lines.”
"Wait! Are you no longer thinking about it? Are you going to use this power now?" A participant who was immersed in thinking raised his eyes, his words implying panic that was not commensurate with his age, "That's
Once our last resort is used, we will no longer have a trump card... and may even expose our entire plan!"
"Being able to deal a fatal blow to Sibia's runner-up, or even Cohen Keda, is exactly what the trump card does. We can hibernate again, and the Knights can train again, but we have to survive the current hurdle first. Once Sibia
If the Biya Expeditionary Force achieves their goal, our end is not far away." The golden-robed chief priest smiled with relief, "How long can we old men live? You didn't join because you want to live a long life, right?
?We can’t let the younger generation see the joke.”
Hearing what the golden-robed officiant said, no one hesitated.
But the gold-robed officiant added: "I am here to ask you one thing. The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and I want to have arbitrary power without having time to inform you."
"Do you want to apply for such power...vote!"
Passed unanimously.
When things were settled, the majestic old man who made the suggestion asked the golden-robed officiant: "Speaking of young people, how did your deputy train him last time? Can he be worthy of the heavy responsibility?"
"Speaking of this young man, I have some immature thoughts in my heart." The golden-robed officiant did not want to talk about "that deputy" on such an occasion. He just nodded slightly and said, "I will ask you for advice later."
Everyone nodded tacitly in response, packed up the files on the table and left. Only the golden-robed officiant was left in the huge conference room.
