As Sir Hans expected, when he returned to his camp after patrolling at a normal speed, he saw an envoy from Lionheart Valley appearing outside his camp with a flag. The messenger was only a second-level warrior. When facing Sir Hans, a fourth-level mage, his attitude was very respectful. Unfortunately, the content he conveyed was not very friendly. He actually asked him to temporarily give up the development of his own territory and go all out to assist. Lionheart Territory, how could Sir Hans agree to such a request? He chose to come here to develop territory, naturally for himself, not to benefit others. It¡¯s just that the messenger¡¯s tone was very firm, leaving no room for anything. Sir Hans didn¡¯t even have a chance to delay, and in the end he could only refuse. The envoy didn't seem surprised by this result, as if he came here just to confirm Sir Hans's choice. After getting the answer, he left. Not long after, Master Huot hurried back to the camp. The content he brought back was almost consistent with what Sir Hans heard from the envoy. This made Sir Hans confirm his guess and gritted his teeth and said: "It's true for both families." With this attitude, it seems that the baron was not planning to live in peace with us from the beginning. This bastard, Fire Claw, has made me miserable with his reckless behavior!" "Sir, what should we do now?" asked cautiously. "What else can we do? Put the other buildings aside and build the fortifications outside the camp first!" Sir Hans rubbed his forehead and ordered. "It's not that there is a protection period" Holt was stunned. "He didn't dare to do it himself, wouldn't he be able to drive the human troops over?" Sir Hans looked at his nephew with some annoyance. I have never seen him so confused in the past! "Ah, there are those humans" Probably because he has been staying in the rear, far away from the front line of the war between demons and humans. Master Huot was reminded that the difference between humans and demons is much greater than the difference between magic demons and succubi. They are two completely different races. The order of the Demon Castle It can make most demons obey, but it cannot command even the weakest human being. Realizing this, Holt hurriedly walked outside the camp. Suddenly he turned back and asked, "Are you going to send someone to warn Sir Fire Claw?" "No need, if you can't even think of this possibility, then let him die!" Sir Hans said coldly. "Oh!" Huo Te nodded. Only then did he really leave. Staying alone in the camp, Sir Hans took out a roll of parchment from his arms and spread it out on the square table in front of him. On the parchment is a map of the nearby area, which Sir Hans exchanged from the city hall at a great cost. Although the accuracy is not as high as that drawn by Ollie's personal investigation. But at least there are no obvious errors or omissions, and the reliability is still 70% or 80%. The camp site that Sir Hans chose now was found on this map. The camp is backed by a hill, and in front is a small plain with sparse trees. It has a wide view and is easy to defend but difficult to attack. "It's a pity that Sir Hans's team seems to have a size of three to four hundred people, of which nearly two hundred are little devils bought for territory construction. The remaining one hundred or so people are the warriors who can fight on the battlefield. Among them, the equipment rate of long-range weapons is less than half. Most of them are bows and hand crossbows with a range of no more than 20 meters. There are very few machine crossbows that can shoot 200 meters. It¡¯s not that Sir Hans is reluctant to spend money to buy a crossbow. It¡¯s actually that this thing has no output in the Demon Castle, and the source basically depends on seizures. As more and more troops arrive from the rear, this weapon of great strategic value becomes increasingly difficult to see on the market. Almost all of it is snapped up by all parties as soon as it appears. Sir Hans hired people to keep an eye on it. Now I only got nine tools. With only nine machine crossbows, in a battle involving hundreds of people, the damage caused would hardly affect the final outcome. In the team under Sir Hans, there are only about twenty direct descendants who can fight, and the rest are mercenaries recruited from the Demon God's Castle. Their loyalty is worrying, and the human troops who sneaked into the back of the Demon God's Castle don't even know how to fight. The consciousness is firm, and the troops of the two sides collide. Even if one's side has the right time, place, and people, some soldiers will inevitably die. You might be able to survive such a battle once or twice, but if you fight it three or four times, even if you win each time in the end, your morale will be low due to casualties, and you might suddenly collapse at some point. "Trouble!" Sir Hans scanned the map carefully. The best defensive site nearby is the valley. As long as the entrance of the valley is blocked, there is basically no need to worry. Unfortunately, that place is now gone. Being taken over by that baron, he didn't even think about it anymore. Of course, if the baron hadn¡¯t been there first,He settled down on the ground, fought several battles with those human troops, and wiped out a large number of human troops. Sir Hans rashly opened up territory here, and I am afraid that he will only be attacked and destroyed by humans at the first time. "I can't find a better location. All I can do is continue to strengthen the existing defenses. I hope the baron won't do it so cruelly!" After a long time, Sir Hans put away the parchment and sighed, But he never thought about joining forces with Darrow Fire Claw, because there was an obvious problem that could not be solved - after the two forces united, whose camp would they be stationed in? Even if this problem is solved by one of them giving in, what should we do if the two camps are attacked by humans at the same time? ¡¡¡¡ Sir Fire Claw¡¯s camp, after sending away Holt, Darrow Fire Claw no longer had the smiling expression, and walked around the camp with a gloomy face, supervising the little devils in the team to organize the camp. The fortifications outside are constantly reinforced. Since the camp is closer to the Lion's Heart Valley, in addition to the envoy coming faster than Sir Hans, Sir Fire Claw can also get information about the Lion's Heart Valley more easily than Sir Hans. Before meeting with Sir Hans, the spies he sent out reported to him that the Lion Heart Valley sent an army to build another stronghold outside the valley, and then defeated a human force of more than 300 people. The troops were said to have captured more than a hundred human warriors alive. Sir Fireclaw didn't understand why Lionheart Valley didn't kill the human prisoners, but it didn't stop him from concealing the news immediately. After all, if the news spread, it would easily shake the confidence of his subordinates. Due to various considerations, he also He did not tell Sir Hans during the meeting, but now, he has to bear greater psychological pressure than Sir Hans because of this decision. "What Hobill Hans can think of, Sir Fireclaw, who has experienced more fights and has been promoted from the bottom step by step, will naturally not think of it, and even think of more. What if the baron is not satisfied with driving the human troops to attack his camp, but goes one step further and uses the prisoners as a threat to force the human troops to join forces to get rid of this little boss like him? Yes, in this case, the reason why the baron left a large number of human captives makes sense. If hostages were used to force the human troops to surrender and betray their country, Sir Fire Claw felt that they would definitely not do it, but if they were forced to form a team to wipe out another demonic force, those humans might not agree. After all, they were still killing demons! Sir Fire Claw's team is about the same size and composition as Sir Hans, but the equipment is a bit worse than Sir Hans's. Those who can barely be said to be better than Sir Hans are only direct descendants of his troops. There are more people, so morale is less likely to collapse. But if the casualties were too great, Sir Fire Claw could not guarantee that his troops would not collapse. In the final analysis, the loyalty of the devil alas! "It's a pity. If Hans had stubbornly agreed to the military alliance just now, I would be much more relieved, but he only agreed to a unified diplomatic caliber" Sir Fire Claw regretted that he was too straightforward when rejecting the envoy, and regretted that he was not there. When meeting with Sir Hans, he didn't insist. After a long time of fooling around, suddenly a spy sent out to detect the enemy's situation broke into the temporary lord's tent. "Sir Sir, something bad has happened. A troop of more than a hundred people came out of the valley, and they are coming towards us!" The spy shouted out of breath. "By the devil, should they act so simply? The messenger they sent has not entered their valley yet!" Sir Fire Claw's face suddenly changed color, and he couldn't help shouting. "Could it be that they came to our side to demonstrate? After all, we have a two-year war protection period!" A subordinate couldn't help but said. "I'm afraid that they are secretly trying to silence our entire team. There are no witnesses or victims. Who knows they did this? Who would go to Demon Castle to report them!" Sir Fire Claw looked ferocious. He said viciously. "Ah, are they so strong?" Sir Fire Claw's subordinates were all startled when they heard this and asked in disbelief. Sir Fire Claw concealed the battle report and said that he was miserable. If he had just set up camp, he might not have thought that the baron had the strength to annihilate his entire army, but he defeated the human race with only a small team. After the news about more than 300 soldiers, he no longer dared to make such a guarantee. "What are your names? Be careful and you won't make a big mistake!" Sir Fire Claw said with a dark face, and then summoned a messenger and asked him to take his lord's token and go to Sir Hans to request reinforcements. "Sir, sir, is that cunning guy Sir Hans willing to send reinforcements? Even if he brings troops, I'm afraid he won't join the battle, right?" Sir Fire Claw asked.The servants asked in confusion. "Who cares whether he helps or not!" Sir Fire Claw said impatiently: "I only care whether he comes or not. As long as he is willing to come, even if he does nothing, he is still a solid witness, as long as he does not wipe out our family at once. If you have confidence, that army will not act rashly!"
