Chapter 1568: 1554. Fortress
Chapter 1568 1554. Fortress
A knight approached the window of the magic caravan and reported to Valentine Marquis Heller who was sitting alone in the car:
"Master Marquis, Lord Suldak is on the opposite high hill, would you like to say hello?"
The carriage became extremely quiet at first, and a low voice was heard after a few seconds:
"Forget it, let's go!"
The knight hurriedly rode his horse to distance himself from the magic caravan. This kind of four-wheeled magic caravan has a relatively short carriage, which is suitable for walking on rugged mountain roads.
A total of three magic caravans and seventy-three four-wheeled trucks carrying important supplies came to Handanal city reinforcements this time. Fifty thousand infantry soldiers with simple luggage on their backs followed the convoy and lined up The long team walked towards the Nanlu Mountain Road.
When the reinforcements first came to the Moyunling Highlands, the soldiers were full of longings for the battle on the highlands. Every infantry soldier was riding a Gubolai horse. At that time, they were naturally high-spirited. mountain view...
On the way back to Handanar City, they had to rely on their legs to walk back. Just after walking less than five kilometers, the infantry soldiers in the team fell behind.
The morale of the reinforcements was extremely low. When these infantry soldiers sold their belongings in the free market, they often heard stories about those adventure groups hunting evil spirits on the high ground. In addition, almost all the imperial people who came to the Moyunling Highland made money.
Now, like a bereaved dog, they left the Moyunling Highland in embarrassment. How could these infantry soldiers be happy in their hearts?
The figure of the personal guard left from the window. Marquis Valentin Heller sat in the compartment of the magic caravan and opened the white lace curtains casually. He looked at Gao Gang on the right and saw a The ten-man cavalry squad is just above the high hill.
He squinted his eyes, and saw that among the group of cavalry squads, there was indeed Suldak's figure.
There was a sharp look in his eyes, and then the look dimmed. He was completely defeated this time. As the supreme commander of the reinforcements in Handanal City, Marquis Valentin Heller knew clearly that this time If the expedition fails, you will bear the main responsibility.
This time, the lords of Handanal City wanted to go to the Moyunling Highlands to share the cake, but what they waited for in the end was to cut the meat. This huge psychological gap may make Heller lose the aura of a famous general, Not good, the family will also be implicated this time, and some interests of Handanar City may be lost.
No way, someone has to pay for this failure.
He, Valentine Heller, of course has to stand at the front...
'snort! '
Thinking of this, Marquis Heller couldn't help but snort coldly.
Three magic caravans lined up, and the one sitting in the second magic caravan was Marquis Simon Geoffrey. The reason why Marquis Geoffrey didn't ride a horse was also very simple. no longer exists...
A 1,500-member Constructed Swordsman Regiment, in the end there is only one regiment leader left, what an irony it is!
Marquis Simon Geoffrey is well-known in the city of Handanal with his outstanding sword skills. I don't know how many swordsmen have been defeated by his sword. His arrogance is constantly accumulated in those victories , but now the entire Construct Swordsman Group has fallen apart, and his arrogance has also been shattered.
Compared with the previous two Marquises, the situation of Marquis Worcester Caesar is slightly better. Although Marquis Caesar has to bear all the negative effects of the defeat, but this time Marquis Caesar has fulfilled himself. task.
He came to the Moyunling Highlands with the legion and had two tasks. The first was to ensure sufficient supplies for the legion, and the second was to collect a batch of unidentified black magic crystals. There are many Noble lords are facing the trouble of being downgraded due to insufficient merit, and these black magic crystals are prepared for them to keep their titles.
This time he paid the premium for the unidentified black magic crystal out of his own pocket, and when he returned to the city of Handanal, those noble lords would accept him...
Although this trip to the Moyunling highlands caused him to lose a lot of gold coins, the money was still affordable for the wealthy Nishizawa family.
The only thing that made him feel a little uncomfortable was that this was the first time he lost money in business.
He thought that before he came to the Moyunling Highlands, before the Beinar Legion left the city of Handanal, Duke Newman had met him once.
At that time, the aristocratic lords of the entire Handanar City were discussing how much cake they could grab from the West Route Army this time, but no one would think that this campaign would end in failure.
At that time, Grand Duke Newman hinted to him that it is necessary to communicate with the commander of the West Route Army as much as possible. It is best to reach a win-win agreement on territorial development between the West Route Army and the reinforcements without harming the interests of the other party. Even if the reinforcements don't touch the cake on the top layer of the cake tower, the Moyunling Highlands this time, as long as they cut off a part of the territory of the Ganda Er Mountains, it can be regarded as a net profit.
Besides, the Gandar Er Mountains are bordered by the Great Meadow. Through territorial replacement, most of the territories of the noble lords of Handanal City can almost be connected together.
At that time, Duke Newman made it clear that the Bena Army would not intervene in the Battle of Moyunling, and those lords who followed Duke Newman did not participate.
Marquis Caesar's initial thought was that Duke Newman and Marquis Luther had a good personal relationship, and the West Route Army was a force on the side of Marquis Luther, so Duke Newman would not touch the interests of the West Route Army anyway.
The West Route Army itself also came here for the Bena Legion to escape from the Warsaw plane smoothly...
Worst Caesars didn't pay attention to Duke Newman's hint at the time. I believe that Simon Jeffrey and Valentine Heller should have the same idea as himself.
As the aristocratic lords of Handanal County at the same time, they naturally don't need to buy Marquis Luther's account.
Everyone is a Marquis. Although the Luther Legion has been maintaining law and order in the province of Bena for the past few years, the influence of the Marquis Luther has yet to reach the noble circle on the Warsaw plane.
Thinking about it now, I realized that even though Duke Newman had a good personal relationship with Marquis Luther and didn’t want them to harm the interests of the West Route Army too much, he might not have thought of protecting the lords of Handanal City.
Duke Newman has been trapped in the Warsaw plane for nearly eight years, and he doesn’t know what kind of combat power these lords in Handanal County have...
At that time, he gave a tactful reminder, obviously trying to let everyone eat this cake as much as possible without hurting the self-esteem of the noble lords of Handanar City.
It's a pity that the lords of Handanar City miscalculated their own strength...
Marquis Nishizawa recalled himself at that time, and seemed to be full of confidence, thinking in his heart: Since the mountain pass at the southern foot of Moyunling has been declared broken, then the entire Moyunling Highland...
Isn’t that the vegetable garden in your own backyard? Whichever Chinese cabbage you want to chop, you can chop any Chinese cabbage...
Marquis Caesar was sitting in the rickety magic caravan, with a wry smile on his face. He also saw Suldak standing on the hill, although he really wanted to say goodbye at this time, at least to relax awkward relationship with each other.
One can think of Marquis Heller and Marquis Jeffrey who are sitting in the other two magic caravans. For a long time to come, the three of them will need to be tied together temporarily to fight against other lords in the city of Handanal, so He has to try to avoid doing anything that is not conducive to unity.
The convoy passed slowly on the gentle road down the hillside, and Marquis Worcester Caesar could only sigh softly.
…
Suldak rode a horse and stood on the hillside watching the convoy slowly leave.
The long line looked like a long black mamba snake on the avenue below the hillside. Looking at the magic caravan driving at the front of the line that never stopped, Suldak knew that Marquis Heller hadn't gotten out of the car. The courage to walk out.
This commander, who has always put on a cold attitude, has completely cut off his career as a commander this time.
In the future, I am afraid that no lord will dare to hand over the lord army to him to lead.
Seeing them leave, the stone hanging in Suldak's heart finally fell to the ground.
If the 50,000 army and hundreds of thousands of horses really fought to the death on the Moyunling Highlands, the West Route Army would suffer in the end, because for those hungry ghosts, there was nothing like these infantry soldiers And war horses are more filling.
At that time, the West Route Army will face a group of evil spirits who are accustomed to eating human flesh...
Speaking of it... because the evil spirit camp on Mount Horsens is the base camp of the evil spirit army in the Moyunling Highlands, and this evil spirit army can gain a foothold on the Moyunling Highlands because the evil spirit camp in Horsens Mountain has At least one Demon Gate.
That is to say, the evil ghost fighters can continuously enter the battlefield of Moyunling Highland through the evil ghost gate.
The evil ghost army in the Moyunling Highland has maintained tens of thousands of evil spirits guarding here. It is not that the evil ghost army only has so few soldiers, but that the Moyunling Highland can only support so many evil spirits.
In fact, the evil ghost army on Moyunling is also constantly trying to expand south and north, but there is the Bena army in the south.
Although the permanent troops in the forest camp are several heavy armored infantry regiments, there are actually several heavy cavalry regiments of the Benar Legion staring at the forest camp.
The forest camp is not suitable for the heavy cavalry regiment to fight. When the battle of Moyunling was defeated, the evil spirit army used the forest camp as its base. A large number of evil spirits entered the Dacaodianzi, but they were rushed by the heavy cavalry behind and retreated steadily. Retreat to the foothills of Moyun Ridge, north of the Gandhar Mountains.
Now Suldak's West Route Army has almost occupied most of the Moyunling Highlands, and the living space of the evil ghost army has been compressed to only the area of the Villagaxi Hills, the North Sunderland Mountains and the northern tundra. The Legion probably won't back down any further.
Wars will become more and more cruel, and it is even more necessary to implement a strong wall to clear the country.
After sending away the 'chicken legs' in the eyes of these evil spirits, Suldak thought about taking the next step.
In fact, he agrees with Marquis Valentine Heller in some strategies, such as establishing military strongholds in some important areas. Only in this way can the ghost fighters be compressed into a smaller area.
At present, Surdak built the Gaogang Fortress in the west of the Villagaxi Hills to withstand the repeated attacks of the demon army.
Next, he will ask the Aigrod Tribal Alliance Army to build a military stronghold of the same size at the source of the Allinge River.
In addition, military strongholds will also be established in the northern tundra mountains, the inner lake shore in the eastern part of the North Sunderland Mountains, Mevagish Canyon and other locations that the Marquis of Heller originally selected.
In fact, because the reinforcements from Handanaer City rashly intervened in the Battle of Moyunling, the West Route Army had already missed the best opportunity to conduct a blitzkrieg with the Evil Ghost Army.
After meeting the evil spirit leader at the Beishankou camp, Suldak didn't want to attack the evil spirit camp on Mount Horsens in one go.
If there are a few more evil ghost commanders hiding in the evil ghost camp over there, they might take all the property of the West Route Army into it.
According to Suldak's plan, it is best to capture this Moyunling highland before the 70,000 ghost-pattern soldiers cannon fodder ants die...
This war with the evil ghost army requires the continuous establishment of military strongholds to eat slowly.
The only pity is that there are no scaled horses among the 110,000 war horses, not even the second-class green scaled horses, so Suldak has no way to form a heavy cavalry regiment during this period.
"Are you going to the battlefield on the other side of the Kempato River?" Samira asked in a low voice by Suldak's side while riding a horse.
"Hmm!" Suldak admitted, "The Western Cavalry Alliance Army is still fighting against the Evil Ghost Legion over there. I plan to meet the commander of the Alliance Army and see what their needs are. If I'm lucky, Maybe we can get back some scaled horses!"
"Looking at it now, these heavy armored infantry regiments rely on military strongholds to fight against ghost fighters, and they still have some advantages."
"However, if you want to rely on them to start a field battle with the evil spirit army on the tundra, even if you rely on Selena's fog of war, I'm afraid it won't work. As long as those evil spirits change their tactics and conduct guerrilla warfare with our infantry regiment in the wild, I'm afraid it will be time It will be our West Route Army who will be at a disadvantage."
"But at least until the situation here is completely stabilized..."
Seeing the four-wheeled trucks loaded with supplies passing down the hillside, Suldak tugged on the reins of the horse, and the magic-patterned horse immediately rushed towards the other side of the slope, towards the West Route Army camp at the southern mountain pass. run away.
Nika and the medical team returned to the highland fort this morning, escorted by Delia and the temple guards.
The West Route Army camp on the southern mountain pass still exists as the largest material transfer station in the Moyunling Highlands. Suldak is going to lead the 30,000 aboriginal legions of the West Route Army into the south bank of the Inner Lake, which is close to Beisende on the south bank. Lanshan to build a second military fortress.
Then cross the North Sunderland Mountains and the northern tundra to go to the Tribal Alliance Western Expeditionary Army at the source of the Allinge River to help the Aigrod tribe build a second military stronghold.
The source of the Allinge River belongs to the northwest corner of the Moyunling Highlands, and the Evil Ghost Legion may not easily allow the Aigrod Tribal Alliance Army to insert a nail here...
However, since the nail in the highland fortress has been inserted into the throat of the evil spirit army, then every military fortress built in the future will be like a nail that nails the evil spirit army in place.
