Chapter 203, Flying Legion (4,000 big chapters count as two small chapters, it makes sense...)
Xiaoyou's words made Fang Hao frown.
He didn't expect that Xiaoyou, with his stay-at-home character, would actually want to participate in this battle.
The reason why Fang Hao did not assign tasks to her was because she had just advanced to the hero level yesterday and was not at a high level. The second point was because of the series of tasks.
Xiaoyou is still undead.
When an undead dies, it disappears completely. There is no such thing as bringing the body back and making it into an undead.
Xiaoyou is a developing hero. He will level up at the same speed after obtaining the Sword of Mitigation. If he collects all 12 weapons, he will reach the lowest level of a purple hero.
Fang Hao still didn't want her to take risks.
Fang Hao asked in confusion: "Why do you suddenly think of joining the battle?"
"Sir, I want to hone myself in battle, and I want to go to the battlefield." Xiaoyou said seriously.
"Don't be in a hurry. How about I arrange a task for you next time?" Fang Hao was still a little worried.
Just becoming a hero is like trying to hit the highway just after getting your driver's license. Isn't it a little too dangerous?
What's more, Xiaoyou's skills are more focused on assassination and have little impact on the overall battle situation.
"Sir, I can sneak in the dark. Even if I don't go to the battlefield, I can still send the enemy's information back." Xiaoyou said again.
It can be seen that Xiaoyou is somewhat eager to participate in this battle.
"Well, in that case, then you can go to the city where the Fire Blade is stationed. They are dealing with the Skull-Smashing Tribe, and you happen to know the Skull-Smashing Tribe quite well." Fang Hao thought for a while and said.
Xiaoyou had previously possessed the body of the jackal leader and sneaked into the Skullbreaker tribe.
The Burning Blade is also safer there.
"Thank you, sir." Xiaoyou thanked him and turned to leave.
Looking at Xiaoyou's leaving figure, Fang Hao still said worriedly, "Pay attention to your safety. Just learn from the Fire Blade. You don't need to participate in the battle."
"I understand, sir." Xiaoyou left.
……
The next day, as soon as the morning sun shone on the earth, Fang Hao had already gotten up.
I first looked at the sound transmission conch on the bedside, but it didn't record any news.
It also proved that the two defensive fronts were not attacked by the enemy.
After a simple wash and breakfast, Fang Hao returned to the room and directly used Divine Presence to check the situation in the two territories.
First come to the city where the Burning Blade is stationed.
The soul fire rose in the pupils of a skeleton warrior, and he had arrived at the city where the Fire Blade was stationed.
The densely packed skeletons stood in place in an orderly manner like terracotta warriors and horses, with no end as far as the eye could see.
Fang Hao walked out of the group of skeletons and went straight to the lobby of the City Lord's Mansion.
Fire Blade and Tongniu were both present. They saw the skeleton with soul fire rising in and guessed Fang Hao's identity.
"Lord." The two men stood up quickly and saluted.
"Well, Tyrok, how did you deal with the Manim market?" Fang Hao asked as he sat down as the host.
Manim Market is always opening up.
This skull-crushing attack is likely to retaliate against Manimu Market, and some defensive preparations should be made as soon as possible.
"Sir, the market has been closed, and the residents of the Niu Clan have also been moved to the rear of the battlefield. There is no problem with safety." Tongniu answered.
Tongniu is also more concerned about his own people's affairs.
After getting the news that Broken Skull was going on another expedition, the market was immediately closed and all the tribesmen were moved to a safe area.
Even if the battle fails, the tribesmen will have time to evacuate further away.
Of course, after Tongniu saw the army of millions of undead brought in last night, he gave up his worries about failure.
Then he began to think about whether to counterattack the Cold Wind Mountain Range after victory and eradicate this threat in one fell swoop.
"Yes." Fang Hao nodded and continued to ask: "Skullbreaker has united the Bloodthroat tribe. The battlefield will be somewhat scattered by then. The two of you will be in charge here, and the Fire Blade will conduct unified deployment."
The leadership of the battlefield is still the responsibility of the Fire Blade.
Even though Tongniu is a purple hero, his overall strength is much stronger.
But loyalty is still what Fang Hao values.
The Fire Blade is 100% loyal, and is absolutely loyal to the territory and Fang Hao. The Tongniu is also very loyal, but Fang Hao cannot be allowed to hand over the power of commander-in-chief to him.
It's not that they are afraid of Tong Niu's betrayal, but the influence of racial factors.
The Fire Blade will put Fang Hao's safety and the safety of the territory first.
But when Tongniu makes a decision, he will consider issues such as the safety of his own race and whether the Tauren army will suffer increased casualties.
It would be safer to leave it to the Fire Blade for unified deployment.
"Yes, sir." The two agreed.
The three of them continued to talk about defense and deployment, and how to conduct a counterattack after victory.
A bone dragon landed directly on the open space in front of the city lord's mansion.
Zhang Bin walked in with several of his human followers, looking shocked.
"Boss?" Zhang Bin asked tentatively.
"Well, Zhang Bin, this place will resist the attack of the orc army, so you can stay here." Fang Hao said.
After Zhang Bin heard this, he broke out in cold sweat.
Yesterday he ordered the iron-clawed rats to dig traps, and he had already guessed that there was going to be a war.
I was sent directly to the front line today, and I felt very anxious.
"Boss, boss, it's okay if you ask me to organize people to distribute leaflets. Leave this army to me to fight. I, I, I can't do it." Zhang Bin felt a little weak.
Organizing a battle is fundamentally different from developing a city.
You can develop a city by feeling your way, but there is no chance to regret a slight mistake in war.
Even if he didn't die on the battlefield, Fang Hao would have to chop off his head when he returned.
"No need for you, just provide the attributes of the legion and learn from them. The main command will be left to Fire Blade and Tyrok." Fang Hao said.
"That's that, that's okay." Zhang Bin swallowed, then greeted the Fire Blade and the Tongniu with a few words of flattery.
Zhang Bin was present. In addition to providing attributes, the most important thing was to transmit information.
When the war began, the sound-transmitting conch played little role.
Zhang Bin can tell himself detailed information through the channel when he is present.
Might as well make adjustments.
"Okay, I also have a warrior's skill scroll there for you to use." Fang Hao glanced at Zhang Bin who was wiping his sweat away.
"Thank you, boss."
There is no mistake here, Fang Hao has lifted the divine presence.
……
He cast it again and arrived at the Bloody Fortress.
After building the Tower of the Dead in the Pig Village, Fang Hao's divine presence can easily possess the fortress soldiers.
Unlike where the Fire Blade is stationed, this place is extremely busy.
The undead warriors were transporting a large number of trees, and the orcs from different tribes sharpened logs as thick as their arms and placed them in the dug traps.
Fang Hao walked into the command house of the fortress.
Nelson and Blackthorn are assigning tasks to several orc chiefs.
Among the orc leader, there is also the pink pigman Petty who wears leather armor.
"Lord." Nelson, Blackthorn, and Petty saluted immediately.
The other clan leaders were in a daze.
The person who was called the city lord yesterday was not a human being. Why is this skeleton called a lord today?
Which one is the territory and which one is the lord?
They were confused and forced to sign a slave contract.
I don’t know what the territory is and where the main city is.
"Did it go smoothly?"
"It's going pretty well. A large amount of resources can be continuously mobilized behind the fortress. Relatively speaking, they have an advantage over the people in the mountains." Black Jing said.
"Well, this kind of terrain gives us an advantage, which is a good thing." Fang Hao said.
Next, Heijing gave Fang Hao a detailed introduction to the layout.
Sharp wooden stakes have been placed in the trap, and huge boulders and rolling logs have also been arranged using bone dragons on the tops of the mountain walls on both sides.
As long as the enemy passes here and uses force to attack, he will face the threat of various traps.
Of course, these are not enough to win this battle. More depends on the military's fighting.
Black Jing took Fang Hao around the fortress again.
After instructing him to notify himself immediately if something happens, he released the status again.
……
Sitting up on the bed, Fang Hao exhaled heavily.
It has been arranged to the current level, so there shouldn't be any big problems.
If millions of troops can't stop the opponent's attack, it means that he is destined to suffer such a disaster. Then he can just escape with his heroes and Yi'er.
As soon as I took a sip of the fruit wine on the table, the Book of Lords sounded a private chat notification sound.
When I opened it, it was Dong Jiayue's message.
"Brother Hao, I've run into some trouble here and want to buy some equipment from you."
"What's wrong? What equipment do I need?"
Fang Hao has seen Dong Jiayue's strength.
In terms of personal ability, she has the highest combat effectiveness among the three.
It seems that there is some danger when purchasing equipment.
"I met two guys with sperm on their brains who have been leading soldiers outside our city for a day." Dong Jiayue gritted his teeth and cursed.
In the first random event, the territory of nearby lords will be displayed.
Although most of them remained calm and there was no conflict.
But every lord has recorded the location of the nearby territory, making preparations for defense and planning for future attacks.
The same is true here with Dong Jiayue.
Recently, many militia scouts have appeared around the territory.
Soon, Dong Jiayue received information from nearby lords.
There are three nearby territories, and they are all the three territories that appeared in the last Lord's Battle mission.
The three had a brief exchange, and then met in the middle to discuss peaceful development and cooperation in exploring nearby dangerous areas.
Since it was the first time we met, everyone had a good chat and reached a verbal agreement.
Yesterday, one of the three, Zhou Chengming, sent out an invitation again, asking to meet again to discuss resource extraction.
Dong Jiayue was suspicious, but didn't find anything special.
Who knew that in the middle of the conversation, the other two would reveal their true colors.
An ambush was set up to capture Dong Jiayue alive.
Dong Jiayue's skills were good, and she took the stamina potion, so she just led her soldiers to fight out of the enemy's siege.
The armies of the two opponents also pressed into the city and have been surrounding them until now.
Now Dong Jiayue's territory has completely entered a state of lockdown. Resources cannot be mined, and food can only last for two or three days.
If this continues, even if the other party does not attack the city, he and the soldiers in the city will starve to death.
The man named Zhou Chengming was still talking obscenely in the private chat, talking about the reproduction of survivors, waiting for Dong Jiayue to take the initiative to climb into his bed for the sake of the righteousness of the human race.
"That Zhou or something, there must be something wrong with his brain." Fang Hao felt that Zhou Chengming also had something wrong with his mind.
If you like someone else's little girl, just say it outright and speak with a clear sense of justice, even if you say something that you don't even believe.
"Yes, Brother Hao, I'm counting on you." Dong Jiayue said.
"What do you want?" Fang Hao asked.
"Long-range weapons, bows and arrows are the best."
"Okay, I'll put it on the shelf and you can take it."
Fang Hao directly produced 202 high-speed hardwood short bows and two thousand arrows for designated trading.
"Go ahead, Brother Hao, you actually have a blue bow and arrow." Dong Jiayue exclaimed.
Fang Hao then asked: "You must hold on to the city first. I also have some trouble here. I will arrange for someone to rescue you when it is resolved."
"Okay, Brother Hao."
Fang Hao would not be so stingy about Dong Jiayue.
If his city falls and he needs to choose a trustworthy territory to take refuge in, he will choose Dong Jiayue.
Even if he did not consider the loss of the city, as a friend he did not want the other party to be in danger.
It's just that he is about to face a war here and has no time to travel long distances to support her.
Fortunately, there should be no problem in defending the city. Even if the city is closed for a few days, Fang Hao can still provide food to defend the city.
After chatting with Dong Jiayue, Fang Hao closed the Lord's Book, walked out of the Lord's Mansion, and adjusted the territory's military strength.
……
night.
The Skullcrusher army sets up camp.
The animal skin tents were set up high, and the army began to eat dinner.
Along the way, Skullbreaker still carried forward his own style. All the orc tribes along the way were forced to join the team, and those who resisted and did not follow were killed.
This also allowed the original thirty-two troops to expand again to 340,000.
In the middle of the camp is a huge animal skin tent.
The tent was brightly lit, and all the senior leaders of Skullbreaker gathered here, waiting for the war chief's battle plan for tomorrow.
"Is there any news from the Bloodthroat tribe?" Thrall said solemnly.
"Lord Warchief, there is news from Bloodmaw. They have discovered the fortress established by the undead and will launch an attack tomorrow. They also require us to attack at the same time." An orc answered hurriedly, fearing that he would attract the attention of the Warchief at this time. dissatisfaction.
"Yes." Thrall opened the map drawn by the scout, and two orc guards opened it and displayed it in front of all the senior officials.
Although the map is simple, it also depicts the locations of city checkpoints in detail.
Thrall looked at the people below and said, "Tell me, how should we fight this battle? The enemy's strength is around 400,000."
The 400,000 troops were reported three days ago.
After the team left the Cold Wind Mountains, none of the scouts sent out came back alive, and no new information was brought back.
Of course, these are not important. In only three days, the opponent's military strength will not change.
"Warchief, you can use the Bloodmaw tribe to disperse the undead forces. If we launch an attack again, we can reduce the loss of troops to a certain extent." An orc said.
Thrall didn't speak, but he agreed in his heart.
"Great Chief." Another person stood up, walked to the map, and said: "This is obviously a fortress, and the opponent's lord must be hiding in the city behind. I am willing to lead the flying troops to go around and kill him. Death, all his defenses will be broken when he dies.”
This orc is short in stature, has pointed ears, a big head, and green skin. He doesn't look like an orc.
"The undead have bone dragons, can your flying troops cope with them?" Another orc asked.
The dwarf orc smiled confidently and said: "Master Chief, the opponent's bone dragon will definitely be arranged on the main battlefield. As long as I follow this route to the rear, there is a high chance of success."
The orcs started a heated discussion about this matter.
In the end, Sal nodded and agreed.
"Okay, you will be the leader of the flying legion. Let's start a surprise attack on the opponent's main city now." Thrall said.
The little orc looked happy and said immediately: "Yes, I will definitely live up to the great chief's trust and bring you the other party's head."
"You, you don't need to attend the following meetings. Just mobilize the troops and get ready to go."
"Yes."
The short orc bowed and exited the tent little by little.
The candlelight on the side flickered, and a shadow sprang out from the corner, blending into the shadow of the short orc, and left the orc tent together. (End of chapter)
