"There is a weapon that can fire continuously... It was this kind of weapon that attacked my troops." Ildo had to think of the tragic experience that day again, and explained: "More than a dozen giant dragons were shot down. This may be
This is the heaviest loss suffered by the Holy Demon Empire in the past hundred years."
"Now, what do you think?" General Moss looked at Ildo, who seemed to be frightened by the other party, and asked.
He didn't really think that Ildor was scared out of his wits, because Ildor persisted in fighting until now. If Ildor really lost the courage to fight, it seemed more reasonable to return directly to the Holy Demon Empire.
So General Moss thought for a while and decided to listen to the opinion of this subordinate who knew Elan Hill better than he did.
Sure enough, Ildo had already designed a new attack mode on his way back: "General! It is very irrational to attack the city. They have deployed those large weapons on the city, so we will suffer."
He glanced in the direction of Maritza and continued: "However! In the wild, their troops only have light hand-held weapons, which are not very powerful. Our chances of winning are very high."
"You mean, let my troops bypass Maritsa, spread out, and attack the Eilan Hill troops in the wild?" General Moss frowned, feeling that this kind of battle was not what his soldiers were good at.
The dragon knights themselves have a small establishment. Ildo is just a knight commander. He only has about 20 dragons under his command. They are very fast and can certainly fight guerrilla warfare. Although his cavalry also has advantages in this aspect, they are not as good as the dragons.
It is obvious that if the harassment war is dispersed in this way, the results will not be so immediate.
In addition, this tactic of dispersing troops to engage in harassment cannot deter those mortals who have already wavered. After all, the battlefield is scattered, and every victory is not shocking, so the deterrent effect is naturally very limited.
"Don't forget! We have an advantage that a mortal army can never have! We can overlook the entire earth from the sky!" Ildor grinned, and there were even some bloodshot eyes on his dry lips, which made him
The whole person looks a bit ferocious.
"We found that they have a force of about 20,000 people, approaching from our right flank." Ildo told the enemy situation he had detected on his way back. This was a very important piece of intelligence: "For me
For the only three dragon knights left, 20,000 enemies are too many."
As he spoke, he pointed to the giant horse soldiers of the Holy Demon Empire in the distance below the slope, and said to General Moss: "However, twenty thousand people may not be able to hold on in front of so many giant horse soldiers!"
After hearing the news, General Moss's eyes lit up. He hesitated a bit to let his cavalry attack the city. After all, attacking cities was not what his cavalry was good at. But if it was a field battle with the opponent's troops, then he
I feel very confident.
Not to mention confronting 20,000 mortal soldiers head-on, even confronting 50,000 mortal soldiers head-on. He was confident that he could defeat his opponent with one attack! Thinking of this, he sincerely patted Ildo on the shoulder this time and spoke to comfort him.
: "Go and rest! Leave the rest to me!"
This time, he did not want to stand up for himself with the idea of competing for credit. This time, like Ildo, he dealt with the war in front of him from the perspective of a soldier of the Holy Demon Empire.
of.
After sending Ildo away, General Moss found an adjutant and gave a more secure order: "Send someone to pass the news back! Let Lord Joseph make preparations in advance. Best, he can send a team immediately
Troops, cross the Kingdom of Higgs and attack Seris from the side!"
Under the calculations of General Moss, all of the most elite troops in Ailan Hill should have gone south. The defenders who stayed in Seris City may not be as powerful as the troops in front of them. Directly destroy Ailan Hill from the flanks.
Laochao is obviously a more reasonable choice.
He personally wrote a letter to Lord Joseph Bakalov, the eastern executive officer of the Holy Demon Empire, stating the difficult situation of Airan Hill, and then handed it to the adjutant he found: "If Lord Joseph can dispatch all
The Dragon Knights, destroy the cities of Siris, Mayne, Ferry and other cities in Elanthir, we will win."
"Let Ildor send the letter back in person! The role that the three dragons can play on the frontal battlefield will not be much according to his words. It is better to let them run away, it will be faster!" Although he took it away from the front!
The three giant dragons made Moss a little uneasy, but he still made a decision.
Compared with the attack power of the three dragons on the front, the speed of information transmission seems to be more important. If Sir Joseph Bakalov can be allowed to send troops to attack the flanks of Eiland Hill as soon as possible, then the battle situation will be in favor of
The development direction of the Holy Demon Empire.
"Yes! General!" The adjutant nodded and immediately left with the letter. He had to deliver the news as soon as possible: although the Magic Empire has "communication crystals" that can deliver simple messages, such complex letters can only
It depends on the dragon knight to deliver it.
After arranging his backup plan, General Moss showed a smile on his face: "Go and tell Locke Zorn the news! Let him assemble an army and go to the flank with us!"
"Are you kidding? We still need to assemble troops? We came all the way and fought a siege without even taking a break. Now we have to assemble another troops to go to the flanks. How can we have any combat effectiveness?" Lombak said.
After all, he is also a famous general in the world, and there is actually some truth in thinking about the problem.
His troops needed to rest and recuperate, and they also needed to boost their morale. After suffering such a major setback, they had to wait at least three days before they could be pulled out to continue fighting. What's more, they were heading north all the way, in order to get the dragon knights into the battlefield as soon as possible.
Advancing at the fastest marching speed.
"So, you are not going to cooperate with our actions?" The officer who came to deliver the news did not accept this trick. He sneered and pressed the long sword at his waist and asked: "Then shall I report this decision to you?
Lord Morse?”
Rather than saying that this officer of the Holy Demon Empire was here to deliver a message, it would be better to say that he was here to deliver an order. The orders of the Holy Demon Empire were unquestionable within the Arant Empire, and were even more effective than the emperor's orders.
After holding down Prince Lombak who wanted to argue, General Zorn nodded and said to the envoy: "I will immediately gather 30,000 troops and advance towards the flank..."
In his opinion, only by supporting the victory of the Holy Demon Empire can the Arant Empire continue to exist. Therefore, he must cooperate with the actions of the Holy Demon Empire and strive to stabilize the current situation.
When he heard that a field force from Eiland Hill was approaching from the flank, Zorn also subconsciously thought that this was a good opportunity to counterattack. The opponent relied on the protection of the city wall to exert firepower, and it was really difficult to launch a forceful attack.
But it's different now. The opponent has left the city wall and is in a field battle. Without the fortifications, the defense has been weakened a lot. Even if the firepower is still strong, with the Holy Demon Empire suppressing the battle, at least it is better than the attack.
The odds are better.
After thinking about it, Zorn made up his mind to fight like this, and Prince Lombak wisely kept his mouth shut. After all, in the current situation, without Zorn's support, the Holy Demon Empire would only use him as a prince.
Even if he is killed, there may not be much price to pay.
Soon, an army marched out from the camp of the Arant Empire, which had not yet been completely built. The sound of armor and the sound of war drums and horns were noisy together, and the green royal flag was still waving in the air.
, but completely lost the arrogant momentum before.
On the other side, a giant horse with a shoulder height of more than 3 meters is hung with heavy armor. The knight on the horse is holding a lance more than 5 meters long. The knights of the Holy Demon Empire have already formed a formation and are lined up in the distance.
He looked at the Arant soldiers coming out of the camp with cold eyes.
General Moss's tactics are still the same as before, simple and crude. He will let the soldiers of Aranther go to die, and after the methods of Elanthir are exposed, he will throw in the giant horse cavalry to make the final decision.
The Magic Empire has used this tactic for hundreds of years, and they have never paid attention to the losses of mortals. In all wars, mortals like cannon fodder are first consumed, and then they dominate the entire battlefield with a crushing attitude.
On the other side of the battlefield, Chris was riding on his horse. Accompanying him was General Wilkes, the commander of the 3rd Division. The two of them watched the hollow phalanxes pass in front of them.
The same expression shows determination to win.
In order to keep their troops capable of combat and avoid being attacked by the opponent, they prepared for battle ten miles away from the battlefield. When crossing terrain that was unfavorable for combat, they did so carefully in batches.
Now, they have arrived at the flank of the battlefield. In front of them is a low hilly area, which is very suitable for cavalry and infantry square formations. The terrain seems to be favorable to both sides. It all depends on the combat effectiveness of the troops on both sides.
"Just now, I saw something flying across the sky... If I guessed correctly, those little black dots are the dragon knights who have been attacking our logistics supply line." Chris frowned and said.
"Our enemies will come to greet us soon. It seems that the opponent's dragon knights are really useful. They can even scout the entire battlefield in advance and provide early warning to the troops." Wilkes said reluctantly.
.
His and Chris's original plan was to suddenly appear on the flank of the battlefield and disrupt the enemy's combat deployment. But now, the sneak attack was about to turn into a strong attack, and of course he felt uncomfortable——
