Chapter 954 Illusion and Concealment

Only through Lorna's description did Cole learn.

It turned out that from the outer city at the beginning, there were actually five Shanglu family legions that quietly came to the central region to support them, totaling 50,000 people, and they were all elite legions with strong combat capabilities.

It was these five elite merchant army regiments that were like magic soldiers, and they simultaneously attacked the unsuspecting Yorkman soldiers and Lancastrian soldiers from behind.

Only then did the astonishing scene happen. In a very short period of time, the Yorkman soldiers and Lancaster soldiers who were caught off guard but were invincible were completely defeated.

"The enemy commanders such as Barrow and Aubrey thought victory was in sight, so they pressed forward with their entire army, leaving the fragile magicians and archers behind. This is the key to our ability to defeat the opponent quickly. .”

I saw Lorna's sassy face full of excitement: "And all of this is the plan of that guest minister!"

"It was your Excellency Keqing who anticipated the opponent's actions in advance and decisively issued the attack order at the critical moment. We and other reinforcements were able to take the opponent by surprise and catch them off guard. In the end, we attacked you both front and back, completely defeating the opponent in one fell swoop."


At this point, Luo Na's fair face showed a touch of reverence again, and she couldn't help but said: "Your Excellency, Ke Qing, is indeed a god of predictions. Although that gentleman has not been to the battlefield in person, he is a foreteller. It is simply amazing. ! ”

"Is everything planned by that guest from another world? Did that guest from another world save my life in the end?"

After listening to Lorna's words, Cole's face was full of surprise and excitement, and he couldn't help but lower his face, which was blackened by the flames of war, and a look of shame emerged.

This elite commander of the Phytolacca family clearly understands.

During the war just now, I, who didn't know anything, relied on stupid subjective assumptions to constantly belittle and misunderstand Your Excellency.

And it was this guest minister whom he despised, who ultimately saved himself and the fate of the five legions.

Thinking of this, Cole had mixed feelings in his heart, and murmured to himself: "It turns out that from the beginning, that adult did not regard us and the five legions as abandoned children at all."

"Abandon your son? Of course Your Excellency Ke Qing did not do this!"

While commanding the soldiers to search the neighborhoods and suspicious houses to prevent any fish from slipping through the net, Lorna nodded to Cole and said: "On the contrary, Your Excellency Ke Qing expected at the first moment that you would definitely become the opponent's primary attack. The goal is to arrange for us to come to support immediately!”

"It seems that I misunderstood that lord. It is really a great honor for the entire Shangluc family to be protected by that lord and His Royal Highness the Princess!"

Cole, who originally had mixed feelings in his heart, is now full of reverence and excitement.

After a while, Cole casually took out a magic handkerchief blessed with cleaning skills, and while wiping away the scorch on his face, he asked doubtfully: "Legion Commander Rona, how did you manage to remain unnoticed? Came to this central city from the outer city? ”

Cole, who had observed carefully in Castle Castle, clearly understood.

The central urban area where he is located and the outer city area where Rona and others are located are not only separated by an indestructible city wall, but also blocked by the absolute defensive barrier covered by the central urban area itself.

All of this is in the hands of the Fourth Prince and his group, so that the other party can mobilize the troops in Kyle Castle at will, and can also take advantage of controlling the absolute defensive barrier to block the connection between the outer city and the central area. The connection between them has turned the central urban area into an isolated island.

And he and others have not attacked the magic tower in the central city, which means that the absolute defensive barrier is still under the control of the opponent.

With the enemy in control of everything, how on earth did your Excellency Keqing manage to cover up the truth and secretly dispatch five elite legions including Lorna from the outer city here to become the reinforcements that would tip the scales of victory?

"Commander Cole Corps, haven't you discovered it yet? There is obviously a considerable lack of enemy troops here, otherwise we would not have been able to defeat our opponents so quickly."

Lorna held the battle helmet in her arms, the silver armor on her body shining brightly in the sunlight, she raised her eyebrows and said.

"The coalition of fallen nobles who followed the Yorkman family to charge almost collapsed at the first touch. It is indeed more fragile than imagined. Is the number really reduced?"

Cole nodded thoughtfully, and immediately said with a mixture of enlightenment and disbelief: "Commander Rona, it turns out that you are hiding in the other side's camp?"

"Yes, in fact, the ratio of the enemy's and ours' legions on this battlefield is not 5:20 as you and the enemy commander thought, but 10:15."

The hair hanging down from Lorna's forehead fluttered gently in the wind, and she smiled lightly and said: "We and the five legions coming from the outer city have already secretly replaced the five legions of the fallen noble coalition. In other words, , this sudden attack started from within the opponent.”

“It’s actually like this!?”

Cole's lips were slightly open, and the scars on his face became more and more incredible. He said blankly: "It's crazy to be able to replace the power of five legions under the eyes of the enemy."

"I thought so at the beginning. It was a crazy and courageous move. Your Excellency Ke Qing did not follow the routine at all. In other words, this is an impossible thing."

Lorna shrugged his shoulder armor and made a crisp metal collision sound.

"It wasn't until everything was going smoothly that I realized belatedly that this was not a crazy move at all, but that it was all within your expectations."

"In other words, the powerful strength and courage displayed by Your Excellency Keqing and his powerful men are enough to turn something like this that ordinary commanders dare not even think of into reality!"

At this point, Lorna's fair face was filled with reverence again.

"Commander Rona, could it be said that Your Majesty Keqing used illusions to disguise you?"

Thinking of the catwalk "Stone" that appeared at the beginning, Colton suddenly became enlightened, and then his face was filled with wonder.

You know, theoretically speaking, only five powerful fifth-level illusion masters can perfectly disguise five legions.

"The response is pretty fast, you're right."

Lorna nodded, confirming Cole's idea, and then continued to describe.

"As for how your Excellency Keqing turned the impossible into reality, we have to start talking about it when we received the order from the elders and just completed the assembly..."

Through Lorna's next description, Cole learned.

After the initial assembly was completed, Lorna and others in the outer city received a total of two orders.

The first item is to quickly approach the city gate in the central area.

The second item is to attack the opponent's magic towers standing everywhere in the outer city.

It's just that the main target of the assault is not the magic tower that controls the absolute defense barrier, but the magic tower that powers the illusion interference barrier.

Just as Lorna described it, this was the first step in Lei Xiao's plan to capture Kelburg.

By summarizing the situation in Kelburg, Lei Xiao clearly understood.

Most of these magic towers that provide energy for the illusion interference barrier surround the magic tower that defends the absolute barrier. They are like satellites, so as long as they attack comprehensively, it is difficult for the enemy to detect any clues.

The reason why Lei Xiao ordered to attack these magic towers that provide energy for the illusion interference barrier has only one purpose.

That is to eliminate the opponent's interference to the greatest extent and maximize our illusion ability.

After all, this time, our illusion ability is unprecedentedly powerful.

There were four illusion masters present, including Xiao Huan, a stone elf who was comparable to a fifth-level illusionist, as well as Erza, Xiaoya and Mia.

Among them, it goes without saying that Xiao Huan, and with the blessing of sixth-level equipment, Erza, a fourth-level eight-star, has a comprehensive strength that is comparable to that of an illusion master who has half a foot into the fifth level.

And Mia, a half-elf mercenary who is only one star lower than Erza and has a strength of level four and seven stars. With the blessing of some of her own special equipment, her strength is comparable to that of a peak level four person.

As for Xiaoya, although her own strength is only level 4 and one star, but because she is equipped with a full set of level 5 equipment and an illusion ring given by Lei Xiao, her actual illusion ability is close to the peak of level 4, which is evident from this.

At the same time, Lei Xiao also understood clearly.

Before the absolute defensive barrier was broken, the only way he could directly assist the merchant army in the city was through Xiao Huan and four other illusionists.

Therefore, Lei Xiao did not hesitate to issue the order to attack the illusion interference barrier magic tower with all his strength. As for the absolute defense barrier magic tower with tighter defense, he only focused on feint attacks and confusing the opponent.

In addition, before issuing the attack order, Lei Xiao quickly judged it after communicating with the elders.

The opponent's primary attack target must be the 10 legions located in our central urban area.

As for the reasons, there are two points in total:

First, compared to the 15 legions in the outer city, the 10 legions in the central city are relatively weak.

Second, in order to gain the maximum advantage, the opponent will definitely concentrate its superior forces in an attempt to wipe out our 10 legions in the central city in one fell swoop. Moreover, the central city is sandwiched between the outer city and the inner city, making it easier for the opponent to mobilize troops. Send generals to attack from a flank.

After judging the opponent's next move, Lei Xiao issued different orders to the outer city and the central city respectively.

The 15 legions in the outer city were divided into three parts. While attacking the magic towers in the city, they approached the gate of the central city from different directions and established attack positions there.

Because under Lei Xiao's initial order, the city had already been filled with smoke. Thick smoke was everywhere, and the field of vision was extremely limited.

Coupled with the fact that the magic towers everywhere were under heavy attack, the opponent could not accurately detect the specific action route of our army.

The 10 legions in the central city area are divided into two parts, and they have established defensive positions nearby to prepare for defense.

At first, Lei Xiao originally wanted to unite the 10 legions in the central city, but because the two were too far apart and there were many enemy legions in the middle, he had no choice but to give up.

Lei Xiao had just deployed all the orders.

Sure enough, the 10 fallen noble coalition armies originally deployed in the outer city began to approach the four gates of the central city one after another, trying to pass through the absolute defense barrier and enter the central city.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lei Xiao also prepared Erza, Mia, and Xiaoya, who were already on standby outside the city, to perform illusions.

At this time, under our constant attacks, the illusion interference barrier in the outer city has become ineffective.

And the absolute defensive barrier here cannot block illusions, so the result is self-evident. This is a good opportunity for us to use illusions!

As for how the illusion should be performed, it is actually very simple.

Lei Xiao clearly understood that although Erza, Mia, and Xiaoya's illusion abilities were extremely good, they were still far from being able to instantly confuse an opponent the size of a legion.

That thing is very obvious. All you need to do is deploy the illusion in front of the city gate.

As long as three of the four city gates leading to the central city are controlled using illusion magic, it will be enough to conceal the truth.

Due to its huge area, although the outer city of Fort Kel can accommodate heavy troops, its depth is relatively limited, and it is just within the range of Erza and others' spells.

According to Lei Xiao's plan, let the five fallen noble legions at the front pass smoothly.

Later, under the spell of illusion, the five legions that arrived later could only see that the city gate had been closed.

Little did they know that during this process, our five merchant army regiments, including Lorna, had successfully blended into the opponent's assembled team through Xiao Huan's illusion skills.

It is worth mentioning that with Xiao Huan's ability, it is naturally impossible to disguise five legions at the same time.

So Lei Xiao found another way to let Xiao Huan use the [God Stone] skill to be surrounded by enemies from all sides.

Using the fallen noble legions blocking the outside as samples, five illusion legions were created out of thin air, directly covering the bodies of Lorna and the other five legions.

Because these fallen noble legions were recruited from various places, they were not very familiar with each other. After all, the gap between the traditional nobles and the new nobles was very deep.

In addition, Barrow, Aubrey and others who led the army did not pay attention to the fallen noble army who made up the numbers. They just ordered to follow behind, so everything went very smoothly and did not arouse any suspicion from the other party.

As for those who were blocked out, the five legions of fallen nobles who were genuine but unknown, immediately received orders from the fourth prince to stay on standby.

Of course, this is just the illusion caused by Erza and others.

Although they couldn't confuse an entire legion of opponents, they were more than enough to confuse the communicators and commanders among them.

At this point, thanks to Lei Xiao's series of covert operations, Luo Na and others finally miraculously appeared in the central city from the outer city like magic soldiers descending from the sky.

Then, under Lei Xiao's instructions, he suddenly attacked the opponent's weakest rear from the inside, firmly controlling the scale of victory.

"Is this your master's plan? It's simply breathtaking."

After listening to Lorna's description, the look of reverence on Cole's scarred face became more and more obvious, and he murmured to himself: "Being able to serve under this gentleman is undoubtedly the most honored thing in my life!"< br>


"Who says it's not?"

Lorna took a deep breath slowly, nodded to Cole and said: "His Excellency Keqing's new order has been issued, let us continue to fight for Your Excellency Keqing." (End of Chapter)
