Chapter 55: Independent Army Command
According to the military strength of Scorched Earth City, attacking the mud and stone basin is purely a matter of sweeping away fallen leaves in the autumn wind and smashing small nails with a sledgehammer. When the army pressed on, Lord Pozo could only struggle.
The vampires' tactic is to push forward directly, using a large number of skeletons to attack head-on, and then the vampires break through from the air, with combos and a central flower. Mudstone Basin does not have the air power to compete with the vampires, nor does it have enough ground firepower for air defense, so it can only be bullied and ravaged by the vampires.
It can be said that a Pozzo lord is not looked upon by Dorotea at all.
The vampire is worried about whether other lords will send troops to support the Mud and Stone Basin.
Especially the most powerful corpse witch Wuertado.
In order to block the reinforcements from the Mud and Stone Basin, Dorotea planned to send a vampire general to lead troops to garrison the Sunken Pass, and put half of his military strength at the Sunken Pass to guard against Ultado.
After introducing the tactics, Dorotea said to Herot: "Follow me and attack the Mud and Stone Basin."
There is nothing wrong with the war layout of Scorched Earth City, but Herot was not willing to follow Dorothea. This kind of big scene is a good opportunity to gain experience. Of course, you have to be on the front line, and it is best to have a high degree of autonomy.
Helot pointed to the rocky wilderness of Ultado's territory and said to Dorothea: "The garrison defense at Sunken Pass is too passive. If Ultado does not support the Mud and Stone Basin, it will not Attacking Sinking Pass instead of marching towards Scorched Earth City will put us in a passive position
Once we mobilize our troops back to defend Scorched Earth City, the war may be prolonged, and the chances of other lords participating in the war will also increase. ”
Dorotea felt that what Helot said was very reasonable. Once this war drags on for too long, other lords will think that Scorched Earth City is too weak.
Dorotea Tia asked Herot: “Do you have any good suggestions? "
Helot replied: "The advantages of vampires over other undead are their super high mobility and comprehensive combat capabilities. Please, Lord Marquis, give me a squadron of vampires. I will lead them deep into the rocky wilderness and continuously attack the undead strongholds and camps, forcing Ultado to use more military power on defense.
Naturally, he does not have the strength to provide support to the Mud and Stone Basin.
As long as the Marquis fights fast enough in the mud and stone basin, the lords with evil intentions will have no time to make a choice. "
Insert a knife into the rocky wilderness. Once this tactic is used well, Ultado will indeed be uncomfortable for a while, and will miss the opportunity to support the mud and rock basin. But this army is in the enemy's hinterland , once they are surrounded, they may not be able to come back.
A squadron is a thousand vampires, and Dorothea is still very distressed.
She asked Helot: " How sure are you that you can break out? "
Helot replied: "Please, Lord Marquis, remove the bat that is monitoring Master Laem. I think Master Laem will tell me something sincere." ”
Dorotea looked at Herot and asked: "What do you want to talk to him about?"
"It's something the Marquis wants to talk to him about. But surveillance cannot gain the trust of Master Laem. "
Dorotea thought for a while and said to Herot: "Okay, I promise not to monitor your conversation."
Helot saluted to Dorothea. : "Thank you, Lord Marquis, I will definitely bring you satisfactory results."
"Go ahead!"
Helot left the conference room and entered the castle dungeon.
When we arrived at the cell where Master Laem was imprisoned, all the bats monitoring the place were indeed removed. Enter the cell.
Master Laem, who was meditating with his eyes closed, opened his eyes and asked Helot: "Dorotea took away her eyes and ears. It was you who did it." Right?”
Helot set another table of food and opened a bottle of red wine.
"It was I who advised Dorotea to withdraw. If she wants to cooperate, she must first establish trust, and trust must be accumulated bit by bit."
Master Laem stood up from the ground and sat down on the chair , reached out to grab a piece of dessert and put it into his mouth to eat: "The hatred between us and Dorotea will not be eliminated by her small concession. And what she wants to do is undoubtedly to let the sun shine into the land of death. It's ridiculous. The undead will never allow vampires to become rulers, just as the undead will not allow living beings to establish a country here."
"You are still fighting to establish a country. Why do you think vampires can't do it. ?”
Master Laem continued to eat, and said at the same time: “At least Dorothea can’t do it. Her individual strength is very strong, but she is very exclusive. She only trusts the vampires. The stakes are on her, and I must take responsibility for all members of the society."
Seeing that Laem had deep prejudices against Dorothea, Helot stopped trying to persuade her. After all, these prejudices were all gone. It's true.
So Helot told the story about Scorched Earth City's upcoming war against Mudstone Basin.
Finally, he said the purpose of his visit: "Yesterday, Frank and I successfully placed the chaos energy compression furnace in the skull maze. The death energy in the old cemetery has increased a lot, and it belongs to my undead army. It is growing.
I need a large enough military exploit to obtain a territory from Dorothea, so I took the initiative to apply to command an army to fight in the rocky wilderness. Dorothea is willing to give me a squadron. Vampire, I can send out eight hundred cavalry myself, and I still need an army of magicians to provide magical support for the entire army."
Fighting in the enemy's hinterland, you want to attack in an organized manner, and then withdraw in an organized manner. To come out, there must be strong heavy fire support. Although vampires all have good spellcasting abilities, if you want to flexibly use combat magic, you still need a professional team of mages.
The Azure Society does not have a large number of troops, but the level of mages is absolutely excellent.
Laem stopped eating and drinking and considered Helot's request seriously.
Then asked: "Your army is cavalry?"
"Burning Cavalry, an undead unit mutated by chaos energy." Helot is Master Laem He solemnly introduced his unique undead troops: "Although they do not have the full combat capabilities of vampires, they are definitely superior to vampires on the offensive end. If trained well, the Burning Cavalry is not weaker than vampires."
Helot didn't brag, and the entire mercenary unit decided that the Burning Cavalry had a very high lower limit. The cavalry unit, like vampires, has the strategic value of changing the trend of war.
This is very attractive to the Zhanlan Association.
The Blue Society does not lack excellent mages, but it lacks an army capable of conquering and fighting.
The old cemetery is not suitable for the hoarding of large armies. Obtaining a territory from Dorothea is in line with the future strategy of the Azure Association.
Master Laem took out today’s manuscript and was about to revise it.
Helot stopped him and said: "Don't rush to give orders yet. Are these foods delicious?"
