"So, this is also what you expected?" Seeing the wide-eyed expressions of Garius and Neruvana who returned from the king's side with an army of thousands of people, Artoris raised her forehead. .
The original purpose of staying in Ledenman Harry for the past few days was to wait for Garius to bring a group of people and make preparations before leaving. Before anyone came back, such a good show was staged.
Since they both work for the empire, Garius and Neruvana are old acquaintances, and they are very familiar with each other's personality. After exchanging their respective information, both of them smiled helplessly.
"I understand what you mean. From your point of view, every move I make has three hands and five eyes. But this time it is indeed an unexpected gain." Looking at the melancholy faces of the two people on the side. Glancing over, looking at Artolis and Villafa, Baron looked innocent.
"But having said that, regarding the divination of my predecessors, what exactly is the so-called Final Beast? The name should be closely related to the creation and destruction of the world, but even though I have set foot on the earth four times and read through the classics, I don't know much about it. "After all, as a contracted beast, Barong, as the master, can naturally know what Villafa is thinking.
The history of this world is mostly about the development of the major races and the praise of the gods. There are very few descriptions of ancient beasts. Even the information about the sky dragon was only recorded by historians in recent years through exploration. history.
Since the existence of the Final Beast will make Verafa feel palpitated, it must also be a mythical creature. If one day he really will fight with it, then Baron feels it is necessary to find out the details of the other party before doing so.
"They are not the descendants of the ancient gods that I am familiar with, nor are they the apostles of any present gods." After hearing this, Villafa shook his head: "I think if that hallucination is part of the prophecy, then I should say - very close , pretty close.”
"Could it be said that it has something to do with the Demon King?" Artoris put forward her own speculation.
"It's not impossible. In short, be careful." After analyzing the current intelligence as appropriate, Barong nodded.
For now, forget about the divination. After all, the enemy's current war situation is urgent. Since he chose to take over the command of the legion, it is impossible for Barong to ignore it. Although he is not as good as a consultant compared to Yami Qianyin, but compared to Nerubana, Wu Zi is still better than her.
From Neluvana, several people learned that the First Legion had a total of 120,000 troops, with an average strength of 125 per soldier. Twenty thousand of the soldiers remained in the city as the people's shield and final guarantee, while the remaining 100,000 troops were concentrated on the southeastern front to fight the Demon King's army.
But now, in the battle with the Demon King's Army, the First Legion has lost more than 20,000 combat troops. As the first line of fortress was breached, it can be said that the losses were heavy. A large number of troops were lost in just a few days. Not only Artoris and others learned about this, but even Garius clenched his fists in anger.
If he had known that the battle would be so tragic, there would be no reason for him to stay in Alebulu and live a comfortable life. He just never thought that the imperial army would be so fragile without a strong general like him.
In the military tent, he was observing the sand table set up by the former commanders. He raised his head and looked at Nervana and his military advisor. Baron asked: "What are the types and individual combat capabilities of the Demon King's army? What's the number?"
"Most of them are "monsters" that have been corroded and infected, followed by assimilated intelligent life "pretenders". Most of the time, when soldiers face monsters and pretenders, they can fight one against three, but if it is extremely ferocious beasts or trolls, it will be more difficult to fight five against one. As for the total number of enemy troops, we only know that the enemy troops are coming fiercely and continuously, and the number may not be less than a million. "The military advisor reported truthfully.
"The enemy is outnumbered and we are outnumbered, and if we are fatally injured, will we be corroded and eventually assimilated into one of them?" Baron lowered his head and thought to himself.
"Sounds a bit like a zombie army?"
"What is that? It sounds disgusting."
Listening to Artoris's wonderful metaphor, the female attendant next to Nervana suddenly got goosebumps.
However, no one paid attention to her words and deeds. Everyone's attention was focused on Barong. Originally, Neluvana did not have confidence in Baron. After all, in her opinion, he was a "robber" who took advantage of others' danger and wanted to seize military power.
But through Galius's words, Neluvana was shocked to realize that the identity of the other party was the dragon-slaying hero who had been passed down by word of mouth in recent years and was known as the "Sage of Divine Wisdom". His great deeds are to advance civilization far and wide through strategies, and his strength is far superior to that of ordinary kings. He can be said to be both wise and brave. People's hearts are inherently good, and Gallius believed that what he said was believable.
Since there is Galius as a guarantee, Nervana has no reason not to trust the other party. However, to be honest, the current war situation has become an urgent matter. At the moment, Nerubana can't care too much. Just as Baron said, she makes the choice of "waiting for the door" and desperately hopes that the other party can turn the tide on this.
"What types of arms does our army have? Report the details and number of each arm truthfully." After pondering for a moment, Barong continued to ask.
"There are more than 40,000 infantry, 20,000 archers, 12,000 cavalry, 2,000 wolf cavalry scouts, 2,000 imperial magicians, and the rest are logistics groups."
"Where's the establishment?"
"Organization...this..." Seeing Barong mention this, the military advisor scratched the top of his half-bald head and his words suddenly became vague.
"Time doesn't wait for me, tell me quickly!"
"The entire army is uniformly organized, and all are commanded and led by the legion commander." After being shouted at by Barong, the military advisor immediately explained honestly.
"There are no less than 100,000 people in the unified legion, but you really have it." Not to mention Barong, even Artolis felt ashamed after hearing this. Seeing Nirvana looking away and laughing, she was speechless for a while.
Have you been living at ease for so long that you no longer know how to fight? If this continues, if Sabbatos Ryder or the Heroes do not come to rescue from Clenia, the empire will fall within two months. , these guys can still laugh.
"Artoris, there is no need to continue to criticize the matter now. As the saying goes, one move can affect the whole body. I, the Lord, are in charge of the military right now. Unifying the organization will be more beneficial to us."
As everyone looked at each other, Barong spoke calmly, and he raised his left hand and pointed at a canyon marked on the sand table.
Before the Demon King's army reached the second line of defense, there were three similar canyons on the way. Now they have crossed one of the canyons. Judging from the meaning of this mark, Nirvana and others should be here. A decision was made and the order for an ambush was given, but unfortunately the effect did not seem to be significant.
"Please tell the truth about the battle in this canyon. I need to understand your decision-making and the results of that decision."
