In the next ten days, the mighty army of thousands of people moved unimpeded through the dense forest. They encountered no enemies, no Dark Soul elves that could be rescued, and no official figures from the Kingdom of Darkness——
Not to mention the patrol team, not even the local police chief or management officer was seen.
According to common sense, they have actually entered an area of the Kingdom of Darkness that they "do not belong to in name, but secretly control".
"The Kingdom of Darkness has been constantly 'retreating' over the years. Not only has the southern part of the jungle been completely abandoned, but also the peripheral parts of the kingdom's territory north of the Dark South River have been abandoned."
Tyran'er, who obtained the "one-third contract", became a half-core figure and could get close to Taiyi and others and participate in the provision of intelligence.
"According to the information I have received from the hunting team over the years, you did not retreat 'slowly'. You retreated to the northern third of the dense forest at once, which is the core area of your kingdom. That's why there are a large number of people. The civilians did not follow and stayed in an area where the hunting party could easily plunder.”
Jardel raised questions. In terms of providing intelligence to the military division, he was no longer as smooth as usual and was meticulous and serious.
"You still have contact with the hunting team?!" As a result, he met an elf who was more serious, especially when it came to certain things, and had no room for change - Harandis.
Although he was embarrassed and dissatisfied with Harandis for taking the topic too far, Jadel, who adheres to the principle of "multiple friends, multiple roads, multiple enemies, multiple walls", still had to explain carefully:
He is the president of the mercenary club, so he will inevitably exchange information with the three religions and nine streams. The hunting team has a stronghold in the Kingdom of Denland. The mercenary society takes the initiative to contact them to inquire about information. They will also buy some foreign specialties from the mercenary club——
The hunting team only operates in dense forests, jungles, grasslands and other places where elves and non-human races live. The mercenary club travels all over the country, and there is a very frequent exchange of materials and information between them.
Of course, Jardel would not reveal this detail to Harandis. Als and his Dark Moon Army knew about it, but they did not report it to the hard-headed Harandis. There were many interests and interpersonal relationships involved. …
At the same time, strictly speaking, whether it is Jader, Harandis, Als, or Tyran, they are no longer simple beasts, elves, and other races, and they do not even belong to a certain kingdom. And it has become the private army of the new god lord and the new gods.
It is meaningless to care too much about race and mutual hatred at present.
It's best to be like Atasha, whose status is improved and to take care of the elves from a god's perspective and power. Only that can really help.
"Based on my understanding of the hunting team, although they are cruel, they are as cunning as cruel." Jader had to try his best to show that being familiar with the hunting team was very useful in their current situation.
"Our strength and unknown will definitely bring them an endless sense of crisis. They will definitely be prepared for defeat before the decisive battle begins."
"You mean..." Als roughly understood what Jardel meant.
"They will use anything of value to pay for their own lives!" Jader finished.
What are the valuable things in the hunting team? It can only be elves and other non-human races. There will definitely be some handicrafts and antiques, but those are far less valuable than the population.
"Along the way, I only saw some traces of resident migration, but I didn't see them hurting the elves to vent their anger, which illustrates this point." If it is inconvenient for Jadel to say, for Als, he did not mention the bodies of the elves, which is considered to be Avoid stimulating Tyran's emotions.
After telling the known information, the battalion commanders of the four troops stopped talking. They looked directly at Yayoi and the military division, waiting for the command to formulate a decisive battle plan.
War is always more than just battles. Military morale, popular morale, and morale, these invisible and intangible things, are the core of victory or defeat.
Yayoi, Nanzi and Liegu Sheyi have to make a choice in the middle, not only to ensure the victory of the front line, but also to maintain the stability of the rear.
If you want to be lazy, there is a very labor-saving way - let Taiyi irrigate Cuihua or refute Dabai, and you can defeat your opponent with a mental control or a spiritual suggestion.
Even if the opponent has too many people, more than 30,000, and one elf can't control it, it doesn't matter. Yayoi and Mikoto also have Guan Guan, not as powerful as Cuihua and Baymax, but they always have a quarter of the ability.
But the power of elves should be used to deal with the gods, like the female fairies. Yayoi did not want them to take action directly, but only asked them to add defense to the troops of the four major battalions.
It's just that this defense is too scary...it's a completely invincible shield.
"Our main goal in this decisive battle is not to defeat the enemy or annihilate them all. Should we focus on rescuing the hostages?" Yayoi set the tone first. She did not consider asking the hunting team to hand over the elves and then let them go. options.
"My Dark Moon Battalion has too few people, otherwise..." Als was a little annoyed. His troops originally had a full strength of 50 people, but they lost 14 in the confrontation with Jardel's escort team.
But this was inevitable. The two sides were mortal enemies at the time, and nearly half of Jardel's escort team was also dead.
"The logistics battalion is temporarily changed to Dark Moon Battalion 2 to cooperate with your actions." Yayoi decisively added 213 people to him.
"You elves are good at fighting in secret, and civilians are no exception. Coupled with the protection of the Yinguang Immortal Talisman, the people in the logistics camp are equal to the top lurkers except for their inexperience."
Als was stunned by Yayoi's arrangement at first - assassination and lurking personnel are more difficult to train than regular soldiers! Isn't it a joke to ask a group of people who don't even have soldier discipline to help him perform the most important task? !
But after hearing Yayoi's subsequent addition, he discovered: This is really the case! As long as you use your experience to command well, under the protection of invisibility magic, anyone can become a latent elite!
"The rest is to expand the encirclement as much as possible in order to leave more hunting alliance troops..." Yayoi looked at the simple three-dimensional map.
More than 1,000 people versus more than 30,000 people can be defeated or encircled and suppressed, but if you want to prevent the other party from getting away...unless you send out elves, or Zanilcha, or Dun, and Taiyi...it is simply impossible to do it.
Once the two sides start a war, the combat zone will stretch for several kilometers. It is impossible to cover everything, and there must be choices.
Yayoi stared at the dark Nanhe River, which was so simple that it looked like a straight line, and thought to herself - even if you can't kill them all, you should kill as many as possible!
"Do you want Dun to do anything there?" Nanzi was not optimistic about Yayoi's idea, "That would attract the gods' attention in advance!"
"No, on the contrary, I don't want Dun to create obstacles for the enemy, but I want to create some convenience for them!" Yayoi showed a proud smile.
