"What? That despicable alien has successfully controlled the Merchant Army? Is he fighting with our other legions in Fort Kel?!"
In the secret command post filled with a chilling atmosphere, the fourth prince stood up from the top of the conference table with surprise and annoyance on his face: "What on earth is that guy Han Shuiqing doing?!"
"Your Highness, the answer couldn't be more obvious. Although it is very unbelievable, Duke Hanshui must have been completely defeated by that despicable alien."
Stone frowned his gray eyebrows tightly, shook his head and sighed: "Proud people will always perish in their arrogance. Grand Duke Hanshui still despises the despicable aliens too much."
However, although he looked regretful, there was a hint of vague schadenfreude in the brows on Old Stone's face.
Without the Phytolacca family as a predator, the Lancaster family would naturally be able to share more benefits after killing the despicable alien.
At the same time, Stone understood clearly in his heart.
Without any warning, since the despicable outsider carried out everything without a sound, it means that the stronghold of the magic monitoring brigade under his command has been secretly removed by his opponent.
Although it is a bit regrettable, if the merchant army and the despicable aliens can be completely wiped out, it can be regarded as an extremely cost-effective deal.
"But even if that despicable alien successfully killed Qing Hanshui, how did he control the Merchant Army? Did he really find a way to support a new head of the family? It's simply unbelievable!"
The fourth prince slammed his palm on the table, his confusion and annoyance getting worse: "Besides, Qing Hanshui has obtained my prince's secret weapon, how could he still be defeated at the hands of that despicable alien?"
"Don't be upset, Your Highness, maybe the despicable alien just suffered a miserable victory."
Kent's face filled with anger also showed the same look of sadness as a dead rabbit. He shook his head and said: "I hope that before his death, Grand Duke Hanshui weakened a lot of the strength of those despicable aliens."
"If this is indeed the case, it will save me a lot of trouble in waiting."
Stone gently stroked his short white beard, bowed to the fourth prince and said, "Your Highness, now is not the time to think about how Duke Hanshui was defeated and how the despicable alien controlled the merchant army. The top priority is It is to suppress the merchant army in the city as soon as possible."
When he said this, a strong murderous intention appeared on Stone's old face, and he said solemnly: "As long as the Merchant Army is completely destroyed, our advantage will not change in any way."
"It makes sense. Although the army of the Merchant Family seems huge, they have been away from the battlefield for decades. They are just a group of pampered young men. They have long forgotten how to pick up weapons. How can they be our Yorkman Family? Opponent?"
A trace of disdain appeared on Kent's face, and he said calmly: "Furthermore, our strength in Castle Castle is 150,000 more than the Merchant Army."
"And the absolute defense barrier can block the external reinforcements of the despicable aliens. As long as we use our numerical advantage to attack them in groups, even if the Shanglu family has some opportunities, we will definitely lose."
After Kent finished speaking, Stone nodded and agreed: "That's right, so please rest assured, Your Highness, we have not lost the initiative at all."
"The two Grand Dukes are right. This prince will feel relieved."
The fourth prince quickly calmed down again, nodded slightly and said, "Then let's attack separately."
"That's right, Your Highness."
Stone gently stroked his gray beard, his old face full of forlorn expression: "Don't forget that we have an unparalleled huge advantage. Using this advantage, the Merchant Army, which was divided into two parts by the outer city and the central area, will soon be It will be eaten away soon.”
"An unparalleled advantage?"
The fourth prince immediately became enlightened, rubbed his chin and said, "Song Qing, are you talking about the fact that we occupy all the magic towers in the city?"
"That's right, Your Highness, while we were secretly monitoring the Shangluc family's army, we had already transferred all the Shangluc family soldiers in the Magic Tower out of the Magic Tower in advance for rotation reasons. At present, the most core inner city does not need to be Say, all the magic towers in the central and outer cities are also under our control."
Stone stroked his beard and smiled sinisterly, nodded and said: "The outer city, central part, and inner city of Kyle Castle all have independent defensive barriers. They are layered within each other and are not interconnected with each other. ."
"This means that if Kel's Castle is regarded as a cage where trapped beasts fight, we who occupy the magic tower are equivalent to having the key to open the cage and can reconnect certain two areas in the city. , in order to achieve the purpose of reshaping the balance of strength between the enemy and ourselves in a certain area."
After hearing what Stone said, the fourth prince immediately understood and said with murderous intent: "So, we should concentrate our efforts on destroying the 10 merchant army regiments in the central city first, right?"
"As expected of Your Highness, you are indeed quick-thinking."
Stone's old eyes also showed a trace of murderous intent, and he said solemnly: "Just like what I said, if Kel's Castle is regarded as a cage where trapped beasts fight, then the central city will undoubtedly It’s a cage within a cage.”
"In this case, we only need to contain the 15 merchant army regiments of the merchant army in the outer city, and at the same time send troops from the inner city and the outer city to sandwich the 10 merchant army regiments in the central city, plus the central city itself With our strength, it is easy to destroy the opponent in a short period of time!"
At this point in the conversation, Kent also nodded in agreement, and said with a stern face: "After that despicable guest gathered his army, his next goal must be to capture the many magic towers in the outer city, so as to break the outermost absolute defense structure. The world is trying to cooperate with the external forces of Ferroburg and Rob City."
Kent clenched his fists and concluded: "This just gives us the best opportunity to deploy troops and attack the 10 merchant army regiments in the central area. No matter what these 10 merchant army regiments are doing, they They will all die under our unstoppable siege!"
"While defending the magic tower in the outer city, should we concentrate our forces to eliminate the 10 merchant army regiments in the central area? As long as this part of the opponents is annihilated first, the other part of the opponents will not be afraid."
A look of ferociousness appeared on the face of the fourth prince. He nodded, and then waved his hand and said: "Then leave 15 wealthy legions with equal combat power to defend the outer city, and the remaining 25 legions will gather together to attack." In the central city of Erbao, we must first concentrate our superior forces to encircle and destroy the opponent’s 10 legions in the central city!”
"As you command, Your Highness!"
After receiving the fourth prince's approval, both Stone and Kent smiled solemnly, and immediately began to mobilize their troops.
As the heads of two wealthy families who had experienced hundreds of battles, Stone and Kent were easy to pick up, and they were all deployed quickly. The fourth prince also deployed the 150,000 noble coalition troops in an orderly manner with the help of Leonard.
At this point, a deadly military plan had been formed and successfully communicated.
"Despicable alien, so what if you control the Merchant Army?"
"Kell's Castle is my prince's territory. If you want to cause trouble here, I'm afraid you don't have the ability yet."
After quickly arranging everything, a gloomy look appeared on the fourth prince's handsome face again, and he said solemnly: "You scum from another world, let's see what tricks you can pull off this time!"
After finishing speaking, the proud and arrogant laughter echoed wantonly in the slightly dark secret command post.
…
"Brother, have you noticed something?"
On a block with an excellent defensive position in the central part of Kelburg, Corwin froze his eyebrows and said to Cole who was deploying defenses: "Our current situation seems to be a little bad."
At this time, it can be clearly seen that the battle flags and dust are flying around the two people, and the soldiers are crowded and flowing.
Even the rooftops in the distance were filled with pokeweed archers with arrows on their strings. It was an extremely tense scene everywhere.
"how do I say this?"
Cole turned his head and said while instructing the earth magicians to build walls and set up blocks, using earthen fortresses to connect all the houses in the block.
"Brother, our five legions have successfully assembled quickly. It stands to reason that we should seize the opportunity to take the initiative. Why did your Excellency Ke Qing order us to build defenses here?
Corwin hugged the battle helmet, his eyebrows tightened and he said: "This undoubtedly means that we are already in an extremely dangerous situation."
"We are indeed in an extremely dangerous situation."
Facing the somewhat panicked Kerwin, Cole responded calmly: "Compared to the 15 legions in the outer city, our 10 legions are currently divided at both ends of the central city. They are already relatively weak forces. With the central city area being sandwiched in the middle, it would be easy for the opponent to dispatch troops from other areas, and the result is self-evident."
"Brother, are you saying that our 10 legions in the central city will be the first targets of attack by our opponents?!"
Ke Wen reacted immediately and suddenly said: "No wonder Your Excellency Keqing ordered me to build defenses here at the first time. Your Excellency Keqing is really good at predicting things!"
"Even now, you are still praising that guest from another world? You are really a stupid brother."
Cole snorted lightly and said calmly: "Don't you know that the 10 legions in our central region have become bait for the foreign guest?"
"Bait?"
Corwin hugged his helmet tightly for a moment, and then he suddenly realized: "Brother, what you are saying is that instead of rescuing us, Your Excellency Keqing is planning to use us to delay the attack by our 15 legion colleagues in the outer city. The magic tower in the outer city, and then open the absolute defensive barrier in the outer city?"
"That's right. Apart from this, is there any better way? In other words, we are already abandoned."
Cole shrugged and said calmly: "Judging from the current situation, this is the only feasible way. After all, even if the foreign guest wants to rescue with troops from the outer city, he cannot cross the absolute defensive barrier above our heads. barrier."
Cole looked up at the looming radiant barrier high in the sky, and said disdainfully: "Even a little legion commander like me can see through the thoughts of the guest from another world, so it's not a big deal. It seems that the rumors He uses his troops like a god, and he really has a lot of talent."
"Master Cole, stop talking to yourself there."
I saw Buz walking over in a dusty state, raised his eyebrows and said, "I don't think Your Excellency, Guest Minister, will abandon me."
As a great earth magician, although he looked calm and calm, his face became increasingly pale.
This undoubtedly means that Buz obviously consumed a lot of magic power when he deployed the defenses just now.
"Oh? Then I would like to hear how do you think the alien guest will break this inevitable situation when the opponent is blocked by an absolute defensive barrier and has an absolute advantage in military strength?"
Cole sneered and looked straight at Butz.
"this……"
Buz was speechless for a moment, but then he refused to be outdone and said: "Although I don't know how Your Excellency Ke Qing will solve it, but how do you conclude that Your Excellency Ke Qing will not be able to do anything?"
"The foreign guests have ordered us to build defenses here. Isn't the result very obvious? They can only do this if they treat us as bait and ignore us."
Cole shrugged and said with a calm look on his face: "But war will always devour some lives. If we can exchange for the victory of our colleagues in the outer city, this life will not be in vain."
At this point, Cole snorted again and said calmly: "I admit that from the attack on the bell tower to the smooth gathering of us, the guest from another world did a remarkable job, but that's all. "
"I'm not blaming the guest from another world, I'm just a little disappointed. That guest, who is said to be a god in military skills, actually asked us to build fortifications. Even without his guidance, the commander of our army would do the same."
"That's all. After all, he has tried his best, but he has not been able to turn things around like in the legend. I hope the Shanglu family will not be destroyed in the hands of an outsider."
After hearing what Cole said, Kerwin and the other two legion commanders who had just walked over sighed softly and shook their heads helplessly.
"Don't sit there and look at the sky. I believe that Your Excellency Ke Qing has not abandoned us, and the Shanglu family will surely reach an unprecedented height under the guidance of Your Excellency Ke Qing!"
Looking at the other four legion commanders with expressions of resignation, even though he said so, Buz began to feel extremely uncertain in his heart.
Just like what Cole said, at least judging from the current situation, there is indeed nothing special about Your Excellency Keqing's defensive order, and it can even be said to be extremely superficial.
"Your Excellency, guest minister, do you really regard us as abandoned children?"
Buz sighed softly and led his subordinates to continue strengthening the defenses.
Not long after, under the dispatch of troops by the Fourth Prince and others, a storm surged in the central city, and the footsteps of 250,000 enemy soldiers were shocking, rushing towards Cole, Buz and others.
Inside the huge Kyle Castle, a massive siege has begun.
