A trace of gloom and displeasure flashed in the eyes of Scavenger Clayton. The tiger's unruly attitude became more and more intensified as the power in his hands grew. Even if the other two established forces, Antonioli of Sishui City and Cassili of Three Cave Alliance, were behind him,
Even when I was most depressed, I was treated with extra courtesy.
It seems necessary to find an opportunity to unite with the other two forces to kick this thorn out.
Although he had this plan in mind, Clayton's expression did not change at all, and continued: "I arranged for the intelligence personnel of the Eternal Night Army to detect a secret research base of the Eternal Night Army. It should be related to medical treatment. Every month
The supplies and medicines shipped there are enough to support an army regiment."
"Secret research base? Are you planning to attack their secret base? What's the point? Could it be that you want to steal their technology and make deals with people outside the mountain on their behalf?"
Although Tagore has been presiding over the use of troops against the Eternal Night Army, it does not mean that he is the kind of completely brainless war madman who cannot see any significance in attacking a secret base.
The Walled City Alliance is indeed very jealous of the trade bonuses received by the Eternal Night Army and the Manyu Army, but there is nothing they can do. The unique topography of the Andis Mountains is destined that the ancient Jacob River is the most convenient way in and out. It is not impossible to get out of the mountain from other places, but
The difficulty increases by hundreds and thousands, and it is very difficult for people to get out, let alone carry goods.
It can be said that the Walled City Alliance was blocked by the Eternal Night Army in the Andis Mountains.
"If it's just a secret research base, it's really not worth our war. If Sean and McGee, where are they heading to at the same time?" Scavenger Clayton revealed the real bombshell news.
"Is this true?"
"Is the information accurate?"
"Is the news reliable?"
It was not just Tagore and Antonioli who changed colors at the same time.
Ban Hebrew, the leader of Sandong League City, who had been wandering in the sky, also opened his eyes and showed a listening look.
Like Sishui City, the Three-Dong League is also one of the three-dong and eight-city established forces in the Andis Mountains.
Just by listening to the name, you will know that Haiyin, March, and Jiuquan Three Caves, which were once very famous in the Andes Mountains, declined. After their decline, they stayed together and married each other, and finally the three families merged into one family.
Different from the complete isolation led by Man Yu's army, the forces of the Yongye Army and the Walled City Alliance are criss-crossed. The junction line is more than one Jacob's Ancient River. There are their junction points in the surrounding mountains, and the two sides have their own.
With the same face, when the mountain people are gathered together, it is extremely simple for a spy to sneak into them.
In the Eternal Night Army, not only does Scavenger Clayton have outposts and spies, but slightly larger forces will also put their own people in there.
The Walled City Alliance is no stranger to the internal situation of the Evernight Legion, and naturally understands the importance of Sean and McGee to the Evernight Legion.
Needless to say, the former is the head of the Eternal Night Army. If he is knocked off, even if the Eternal Night Army does not fall apart, the momentum of vigorous development like this will inevitably be curbed, and the internal affairs will directly fall into infighting. For example, the Eternal Night Army will fall into internal strife.
There was a lot of discord between the two young generals of the Night Army, Marshall and Ralph. No matter who came to power, the other would strongly resist.
As for the latter, it is the bridge between the Eternal Night Legion and the Skull-Smashing Legion. Without his powerful intimidation, it would be difficult for the young men of the Eternal Night Legion to suppress the unruly guys of the Skull-Smashing Legion.
As long as there are cracks within them, the cunning people like the Walled City Alliance have a thousand ways to tear them apart - the most troublesome thing for the Eternal Night Army now is that it is a monolith.
They wanted to start from within, but there was no chance.
"The information is absolutely accurate. This is a nail that I buried beside that idiot Mikey a long time ago. He would never have thought of it in his dreams." Scavenger Clayton said confidently.
This nail was not planted after the Eternal Night Legion was established. It was planted when he and Skullcrusher McGee were not dealing with each other. Calculating carefully, it has been almost ten years, and he has almost forgotten this.
The existence of a nail, I didn't expect it would bring such a big surprise to me.
"Where is the general location of the secret research base? Is there a specific address?"
"There is no specific address, but there is a general direction. There are not many places that can accommodate a regiment of people, and materials are transported frequently. Road issues also need to be considered. It is not difficult to deduce. Generally speaking, it will not escape this range."
"It's not far from us, only three days' journey at most."
"I'm familiar with this place. I know a shortcut that can reduce the time by one-third."
"If that's the case, there's a lot to be done."
"There can't be too many people, otherwise the movements will be too big and the prey will be scared away. Let's select elite soldiers and generals to attack overnight and end the battle with one charge."
Several giants of the Walled City Alliance gathered together and quickly came up with a practical plan. At this time, the small city owners could only listen.
If a large-scale war breaks out, the city lords of the Walled City Alliance may hesitate, but they are not afraid of small-scale conflicts.
"Now let's take the final vote!"
"I agree!"
"I agree!"
"I agree too!"
Antonios, Tagore, Clayton, and Ben Hebrew all voted in favor, which meant that the matter was a foregone conclusion.
The Walled City Alliance is nominally managed by dozens of city lords, but in fact it is an oligarchy. The four people in front of you really have the final say.
"Then let's start sending out people. At least they are knight reserves. If they are too bad, don't use them to fill up the numbers. Let me set an example. I can send out two great knights, one secret whisper level warlock, and twenty knights.
, the knight reserves a hundred-man guard." Antonios, the Lord of Sishui City, said.
"I can send out two high knights, twenty knights, and one hundred knights in reserve." Scavenger Clayton responded positively.
"I can send out one champion knight, fifteen knights, and one hundred-man reserve knight." Andis Tiger Tagore said.
"Since you have invested so much, I can't hide it. I will send out a control warlock, two high knights, twenty knights, and a hundred-man guard in the knight reserve." Ban Heibei, the leader of the Three Cave Alliance City, said.
From the top-level combat power produced by the four forces, we can see the difference in the background of the two sides.
Sishui City and Sandong League are worthy of being established forces, and their rich foundation is far beyond what Clayton the Scavenger and Tagore the Tiger Andis can match.
Don't look at the fact that the top-level combat power produced by both sides is basically the same, but Antonios and Ben Hebrew's answers were not thought through at all, as simple as cold water. Obviously, what they produced was not their full strength.
Clayton and Tagore hesitated for a moment. Although it lasted for a few seconds, it was clear that they had all their cards. In comparison, the decision was clear.
Especially Tagore, there was a serious gap in the top strength. Except for him, a champion knight who supported the appearance, there was a gap in the backbone strength.
The great knight is the high-end force that measures the true strength of a force. After all, champion knights really need luck.
In this aspect, Sishui City's luck is not very good. There are tens of thousands of residents in the affiliated city, but there is not a single champion knight who can take action.
Champion knights basically cannot be recruited. Tagore is the best example. Most of them are arrogant and would rather be a chicken head than an ox tail.
Their determination can also be seen from here. During this period, the Skull Crusher Legion made frequent moves, which put too much pressure on them. This made these city lords determined to give the Eternal Night Legion a hard blow.
During this period, no one questioned this operation. After all, their operation was completely based on spy intelligence. Once the intelligence was false, their work was in vain. What if it was a trap?
The four great city lords sneered at this doubt.
One champion knight, one control-level warlock, one whisper-level warlock, six great knights, seventy-five knights, and four centenarian knights in reserve.
Such a lineup, let alone in the mountains of Andis, even if it was placed among the military leaders of the Byron Alliance, it would be easy to poke a hole in their rule.
What's more, there are people in the Eternal Night Army, not only Clayton, the Scavenger, but everyone here, regardless of the big or small city lords, who have not sent their own people to the Eternal Night Army.
These people may not have buried it as deep as Scavenger Clayton's nails and unearthed such important information, but it is relatively easy to verify based on this information.
The people present are all cunning and cunning people, but there is still some meticulousness and careful thinking.
…
The three holes among the three holes and eight cities are Haiyin, March and Jiuquan respectively.
Compared with the eight cities scattered in the mountains, the three caves are obviously much more closely connected. They are distributed in a crescent shape in the valley bottoms of hundreds of miles of mountains. This can be called the upper reaches of the Andis Inland Lake.
It is no exaggeration to call this the most beautiful place in the Andes Mountains.
This is the most typical karst landform area, with various large and small caves, micro lakes, and rolling mountains. It can be said that there are caves in the mountains, water in the caves, and mountains in the water. The three are connected and intertwined.
Echoing each other, it’s like a fairyland.
Sandong is also known as the most difficult walled city to conquer by outsiders.
Because the roads here are complicated, sometimes in the mountains, sometimes in the water, and sometimes into caves, it is common for people who live here all year round to get lost, let alone outsiders.
Under the leadership of Sandong Alliance City's main squad, Hebrew, the carefully selected raiding party set off overnight. In just one day and one night, they appeared directly in the hinterland behind the Eternal Night Army in seven or eight directions.
Sometimes walking, sometimes taking a boat, and sometimes piercing, many people were dizzy. Not to mention remembering, many people were in a daze and almost vomited and collapsed, including the champion knight Rabindranath Tagore.
This tiger in the mountains becomes a sick cat when it gets into the water.
For the sake of confidentiality, those city lords who were present at the meeting, who were capable, directly included them in the raid list. If they were holding back, they were brought to the lair of the Three Cave Alliance, where they were temporarily imprisoned and released after the raid was over.
.
After all, they can plant secrets in the Eternal Night Army, and the Eternal Night Army may also bury nails among them. Anyway, there is no big mistake in being careful. The better the confidentiality of this kind of raid, the greater the chance of success.
Scavenger Clinton felt awe-struck when he saw Hebrew, the leader of the Three-hole Alliance's Great City, approaching the secret research base of the Eternal Night Legion with such familiarity.
This old fox obviously knew about this place for a long time, and even came to investigate in person, but he kept pretending to be dumbfounded.
Among the three major forces within the Walled City Alliance, Clayton is afraid of the one.
He is neither a domineering nor arrogant Tagore.
Nor is Antonios, who considers himself noble and the leader of the alliance.
But the senile Ben Hebrews is about to die at any moment.
He is like a poisonous snake lurking in a deep pool, and no one can figure out his true identity. Once his fangs are exposed, he will launch a fatal attack.
After joining the Walled City Alliance, he did two things.
One thing is to bring Xiashui City, which is swinging between Sandong League and Sishui City, into his arms, and start to compete with Sishui City on the Andis inland lake.
Another thing was to bring Crouching Tiger City to their side. They had been closely associated with Tagore and were ready to fall to him. If they had cut off one of his tiger claws, otherwise Tagore's momentum would have been lost.
Bigger.
If this alone was not enough to impress Clayton, what really alarmed Clayton was that not only Antonios swallowed this breath of anger, but even the competitive Tagore did not get angry on the spot. Obviously, this old man
The poisonous snake has other methods that he doesn't know about in private.
"How much wealth have these guys got from the Bastille and those fools outside the mountain? Are they going to cover the entire mountain with their city walls?" Antonios, the Lord of Sishui City, gritted his teeth and said with a hint of jealousy.
Standing in front of them were several typical Fortresses of the Evernight Legion.
This kind of fortress is somewhat similar to the original architectural style of Andis mountain people, but there are huge differences.
The shape of the castle varies, it may be round, square, or irregular polygonal, depending on the terrain of the place where it is built.
But one thing is the same, that is, the ring shape is integrated from beginning to end, enclosing an independent world. The wall to the outside is always a wall, which is covered with staggered holes. It is a window for lighting in leisure time, and it is a wall in wartime.
An arrow hole.
A small fort can only accommodate thirty or forty households, but a large fort can accommodate more than a hundred households without any problem.
The Walled City Alliance has already tried the power of these forts. If a small fort is full of people and is well-prepared, it can't be conquered without a hundred guards.
Even if it is chewed down, it will be a loss of troops. It is not unusual to add one-third of the troops. After all, the mountain people's shooting skills are there, and with the protection of solid walls, all the people are soldiers.
What they lost were soldiers. Even if they wiped out the other side, they would only lose dozens of families of mountain people.
The most terrible thing is that the senior officials of the Yongye Legion obviously have defensive compulsion and have turned all the mountain people's residences under their rule, at least those on the border between the two sides, into fortresses.
When the forts are connected into a large area, the situation is different.
They echo each other. When you attack this fortress, a wave of enemies might appear from somewhere, and Tou Tou will send you a wave of arrows.
The Andis Longbow is no longer a secret in the mountains. Not only are the mountaineer hunters of the Evernight Legion armed with it, but even the Walled City Alliance has also updated it.
This makes the Andis mountain people's danger index rise sharply. If they are not careful, they will be completely shocked.
Moreover, the mountain folk of the Eternal Night Legion were trained to be extremely slippery and had no spirit of fighting to the death. They would run away as soon as they fired the arrows, and each one of them was faster than a rabbit.
If you don't chase him, he might turn around at some point and hit you again.
If you chase them, if they find a fortress and crawl inside, you will just stare.
The mountain people who once allowed them to be their prey, once they lived in the walled castle, they became a lot more courageous without realizing it. They dared to challenge them directly. The city lords of the Walled City Alliance were so angry that they had nothing to do. If it was just to vent their hatred, they would attack such a castle.
It's tough, no matter how brainless you are, you can't do such a thing.
In the past, the Walled City Alliance did not attack the Yongye Army because they were concerned about each other and were unwilling to take the lead for fear of losing their troops and generals.
If we don't fight now, in addition to the above considerations, there is one more thing. Whether they can chew down the Eternal Night Army is really unknown.
What they now have in front of them is a series of five large fortresses.
