Vol 4 Chapter 117: Sleepy Breakout


Parachutist Norton was very careful. After catching up with Chi Aotian Expeditionary Force, he learned how to cut down all the surrounding forests and drag them with war horses, and rushed the treetops to build the Luzhai. In order to prevent the Chi Aotian Legion from breaking through, Norton personally led his legion to guard in front of Luzhai.
After Luzhai got up, Norton was relieved. Now, even if Chi Aotian wants to do something, it is not so easy.
Then the commanding soldiers dug a trench two meters wide and two meters deep outside the Luzhai-the water level of the tens of miles around the Sicily River was high, and the water began to rise just one meter after it was dug. It is equivalent to protecting the Zhai River; pile up the excavated soil on the shrub trunks in the south of the Chong to prevent them from being pushed away by the enemy; pile up the two-meter-high soil wall in the south of the Protection Wall.
Fire Dragon Knight Han Han happened to pass by. Looking at this method is good, he came up with a new idea: dig the Huzhai River and the Sicily River. In this way, the Huzhai River is walking through the living water, and it is more difficult for the enemy to pass. Norton followed suit and immediately arranged for the soldiers to do it.
In the afternoon, with the efforts of more than 20,000 soldiers, an iron barracks stood on the south bank of the Sicily River.
Many high-ranking military officers who came to patrol were impressed by this. Anyone who wants to conquer such a three-tiered defense line must pay a terrible price.
In the evening, the highest commander of the theater, Monton, summoned all senior officers to attend the meeting. On the south bank of the Sicily River, there were seven full-time officers of the coalition level at the level of the regiment commander, and there were three officers at the level of deputy commander. In the history of Fanos ’use of troops against the Eminor continent, it is rare to use so many troops at a time.
In the original plan, I hope to have a decisive battle with Chi Aotian Army with three to four times the superior strength. The strategy of the base camp is that only 6,000 of the first soldiers of the Chiaotian Army belonged to the elite level, which is basically at the same level as the northern federal army before, and then 15,000 local indigenous people who were forced to carry them, and only half of them experienced it. Many battles are equivalent to the level of ordinary soldiers in the empire. About half of them joined the army and probably participated in the battle of Rhodes. Their strength is quite ordinary. In this battle, the Norton Army and the Monton Army are among the elite in the two eastern and western theaters. The strength of the blood-blooded iron horse is also quite outstanding. Moreover, there are several deputy heads of the heads with extremely high combat power. The total number of the three troops is nearly 20,000, and after the replenishment, nearly 25,000. As the main force in this battle. The combat strength of the other two Fanos legions is also quite good. The overall strength should exceed that of the ordinary army of the Amy Empire. The final strength of the instructors sent by His Majesty the Pope is quite general. At 2 to 1, the combat power ratio should be 3: 1.
Now, after three days of fierce chase, the strength of both warring parties has dropped significantly, especially the Fanos Corps, the bears are all left behind, and the Orcs will catch up as soon as possible tomorrow morning, do n’t watch now There are also 40,000 people in the central camp, and their strength is not a little worse than before.
All officers knew this, so when he heard Monton asking when he would fight Chi Aotian, almost all of them hoped to delay the fight.
The statements of several senior officers of the Holy See are quite consistent: "The art of war, the soldiers who surrendered without fighting. Now that the Chi Aotian army is trapped here, the next step is the natural danger of the Sicily River. A large army of 10,000 or 20,000 people consume horses. How much food do they need in a day? Just trap them here for a maximum of 10 days, and no matter how powerful the army will be, it will not be necessary to take the initiative to attack. In the case of a battle against the water, if you still take the initiative to attack, maybe something will happen! "
The heads of the Fanos except Norton do not agree with this view: "The night grows long, there are so many dreams, and there are many flying troops in Chi Aotian's army. If they get stuck like this, in the end, it is absolutely impossible to wipe out The enemy, and the elite of the enemy, especially the middle and high-level legions will surely escape! This battle will eventually become a group of peasant soldiers who are trapped to death. Whether Chi Aotian returns to Tongyun Pass or Hamburg City, he will eventually be in trouble. When His Highness returns The coalition will immediately have five dragon knights. It is still quite a win to fight five. Even in this battle, one or two thousand soldiers will be killed, but it is absolutely cost-effective to fight senior generals such as Chi Aotian. " Since then, Fanos orcs have learned to calculate.
Grand Duke Melendia stood behind and said nothing. When Monton solicited opinions, the Grand Duke frowned and said one thing: "My Excellencies, when you count the enemies, be sure to put the" black lightning " Counting it in. He was already in the top 20 on the Soul Warriors list more than 70 years ago. I think if it is not a sudden retreat, then he is likely to enter the top 5. If there is a dragon knight war, then ... I am worried that, besides His Royal Highness Shuda, Han Han and the other two dragon knights can hardly contend with Chi Aotian and Black Lightning. After all, know that Chi Aotian has already entered the War Soul List only one year after his debut. "
Battle soul list? The officers have some dry lips. Although the soldiers don't look at the mercenaries very much, the Soul List has absolute authority. Even if the dragon meets the characters of the soul list, they will have the idea of ​​detour. Black lightning? Some people on the Eminor continent have heard of some of these people. The legendary super-warrior who "visited late at night, like an arrow" is said to have said that this guy never used a second arrow to kill a person, especially at night No one can defeat him at night.
I just couldn't think of how Chi Aotian could collect this man.
"Sir, I think you are very clever in the Langcang River. Can we continue to make a fuss on the river?" The commander of the army begs to think about it: "If we build a dam on the Sicily River and save the river, Then the water was released in the middle of the night. I think that now the Chi Aotian Legion is camping by the river, and it will definitely be washed down by the water. Maybe, any black lightning will also ... "
Yeah, this is a good idea, most of the Fanos officers' faces are ecstatic. On the contrary, Monton didn't have any expression on his face, and the iron hand blocked Duke Jiang's face as well. In the end, a human army commander couldn't help but say: "The Sicily River here is more than 2,000 meters wide. How can we block such a wide river? If you have such a large capacity, you don't have to fight here It is better to go directly to the Three Gorges Hydropower Station on the Yangtze River to work, which is definitely more profitable than working in the war of the gods. "
"Head Norton, Your Excellency and Chi Aotian and others have fought many times. What is your opinion?" Monton turned and asked his fellow military officers around him.
The parachutist smiled bitterly: "The commander-in-law asked me no use. All senior officers in the western theater were all defeated by the small mercenaries. However, compared with previous battles, this time I should say that the opportunity is the best. I Think, we can win, it ’s just a matter of overcoming big wins and small wins. If you want to win big wins, you need to be mentally prepared for tens of thousands of deaths. If the base camp hopes that we will move to other battlefields immediately after the victory, then drag it to the enemy When you run out of food. "
Isn't this the same as not saying? When did the Orc officer learn to play football? Monton could hardly cry or laugh. No ... It seems that Norton has something to say.
"Then ... when you leave, does the base camp or Marshal Dahino give you any other tasks?"
"Oh ... that's not there, just let me help the adults fight the Huayu Plain." Norton replied word by word.
"Okay, then I understand." Monton sighed in his heart, alas ... ever since landing on the Eminor continent, more and more orcs have moved closer to humans, not just eating habits, even talking Great changes have taken place in the way of doing things. Far away in Farnos, if there are half-orcs talking like this and talking, they will definitely be blamed by everyone. This phenomenon is most obvious in the western theater. It is said that the commander of the Merlin Army has even learned the retro customs of mankind and started to write brush characters. Could it be that only this way can occupy this territory?
"All the officers went to the containment team as soon as possible to retrieve their soldiers and prepare for a decisive battle with the enemy three days later. Begging and Pross, our three legions are the main legions of the decisive battle. You arrange for the soldiers to be repaired as soon as possible. Norton Chief, This battle relies entirely on your noble genius, and in any case it is the first achievement. In the decisive battle three days later, your noble genus will serve as a reserve subordinate; Your Excellency, your lord will serve as a rider for this decisive battle. Please also prepare as soon as possible In addition, the Knights Templars are under the command of the Grand Duke in this battle; the instructors are equipped with bows and arrows to camp down the river in case the enemy is forced to cross. In addition, once the enemy really calls the ice magic to freeze the river, regardless of the day It ’s still night, you must grab the ice in the first place, you must drag the enemy!
Monton thought for a moment and then added:
All the sacred priests in the legions are all called out to form a separate team, ready to cooperate The Dragon Knight attacks Chi Aotian with divine magic. Let's go ahead and prepare. "
Many generals left the handsome account after rushing to their promises. Even the strong-headed strong man such as the Grand Duke had to admit that the half-orc that looked quite rough in front of him was extremely detailed. If Chi Aotian was in Under this arrangement, it can lead a team to kill a blood path, which is beyond human control.
However, this arrangement is ultimately a wishful abacus called by oneself.
At ten o'clock that night, nearly one hundred vultures rose gently from the woods. In the grasslands of the rainy season, the sky is always gloomy no matter day or night, and the moon cannot be seen at all. It is almost impossible to see the fingers. These vultures fly lightly against the ground, and soon came to the coalition camp.The sky is the most brave The elf violently vibrated its tail, and shot into the sky like an arrow. At the same moment, nearly a hundred yellow and white bright spots suddenly appeared in the sky. The bright spots immediately drew a white tail in the air, and shot at the Fanos. camp.
The coalition soldiers who had been on the road for several days had already fallen asleep, and even when these flames began to engulf the tent, most people did not notice it.
"Enemy Attack-Enemy Attack-" The two thousand commanders in charge of frontal rotation at night blew their whistle at the same time, and greeted the soldiers in rotation behind them quickly came to the earth wall and were ready to fight. Monton was most afraid of Chi Aotian's raid in the middle of the night, and gave every turn to the thousands of people in turn. Once there was a problem in these places, everyone had only one end-beheading. No one would joke about his head.
Numerous senior officers ran out of the tent, and tens of thousands of soldiers quickly assembled. Unexpectedly, those knight eagles hovered over the camp for a while, then shot another rocket, and went back.
During this chaos, only forty or fifty tents were lit, and it is estimated that no more than one hundred soldiers were killed or injured. Monton and Norton discussed in a low voice, and the two quickly reached an agreement-this should be Chi Aotian's strategy. Use this method to drag down the enemy.
Monton pulled out a centaur team, sitting in the middle of the camp. Once the enemy flying knights were found, they were forced to use the bow and arrow to complete the mission. In addition, the rotating two thousand teams were equipped with wooden barrels in case of fire. .
Sure enough, the judgment of Fanos Continent's double shields was not made ~ EbookFREE.me ~ That night, Chi Aotian even discharged four batches of knight eagles to carry out rocket harassment on the camp. Fortunately, it did not cause much Threat. After thinking of the enemy's strategy, the senior officers slept more firmly.
January 18th, the sixth year of the magic calendar.
During the day, the waves are calm—perhaps those knight eagles are making up for it.
Instead, Monton sent out two centaurs and thousands to harass the enemy-it was impolite to come and go. Now do n’t use your own soldiers to find Guangduo trouble, and you have to be harassed at night?
The Centaurs drove past the jungle in Chi Aotian's army at high speed. At the same time, the long arrows in their hands were shot into the jungle randomly.
In the end, the Chi Aotian Legion was a little anxious, and had to use a small strong crossbow, firing against the fallen canopy, and suddenly more than two hundred centaur archers were shot down-this kind of equipment is too domineering and often worn After two or three people, there was no loss of momentum, and as long as they were shot, there was almost no escape.
Monton quickly withdrew all Centaur archers-now it is impossible to waste the high-speed Centaur forces to consume the enemy's powerful crossbow.
Summer night on January 18.
Senior officers such as Monton waited until 11 o'clock at night to sleep in peace-it seems that the anti-boil tactics during the day do have a great effect. The enemy should not have the energy to disrupt this evening.
At 2 o'clock in the middle of the night, the sound of a horseshoe falling like a heavy rain suddenly sounded outside the southeast gate of the Fanos coalition.
"Someone! Stop! Otherwise, bow and shoot arrows!" The hundred people shouted.
The immediate knight didn't have any pause at all: "Quick! Open the camp door! I'm going to see Commander Monton immediately, something happened! Quick! Send an enemy alert!"
