"Lord Lancelot, the devils must have noticed the movements of our army, so they began to accumulate a large number of troops in Leilong City." Because we had sent scouts to collect intelligence before, the news we got was that the other side seemed to be planning to head on. The way of meeting the attack. "What's this? They're just some mobs. Let me lead 3,000 people to eliminate them." Eugene's words were full of confidence in himself. He was also an experienced veteran. Although these words were arrogant, they also came from him. I can only boast of my impressive achievements in the past. But Lance did not agree. Instead, he called Baron Gerson and Count Astine to discuss the matter. "Leilong City is the city that Baron Gerson was responsible for garrisoning before, right?" Lance asked the two in front of him. "Yes." "So is there any special place in Leilong City?" "Special place?" Baron Gerson asked in confusion: "If it refers to the fortifications, they have basically been in the previous battles. "It's completely destroyed." "No, that's not what I'm referring to," Lance scratched his nose with his finger: "Maybe it's a bit difficult to explain. In other words, what do you think Leitaki City can do to the devil? Is it a place that attracts them?" The baron shook his head after thinking about it. When he left, Leilong City had been completely destroyed, and everything was swallowed up by the magma: "It should be nothing, right?" "That's strange, right? "Yeah, why are they stationing troops on a large scale in Leilong City?" Lance asked. No need to ask, of course I know the situation here, so I sent out corresponding troops to confront the devil head-on. "Really, but don't you find it strange?" Lance asked instead. "What's the problem?" "We only sent out scouts. How did the enemy know that there were reinforcements in Mandola City? And even if they knew that there were new troops coming here, they didn't know that the supporting troops were the Royal Army. The main force, why not attack directly, but gather forces in Leilong City, which the Baron also said has been completely captured. This makes people have to doubt the purpose of the devil's actions. Do you think they are satisfied if they occupy the land of three counties?" Lance turned and asked. "So it's because the city of Mandola is located in a dangerous place, easy to defend and difficult to attack, right?" Count Astine felt that Lance's question was simply inexplicable. But Baron Gerson, who was supposed to be on the same front as him, shook his head: "Although it is not good to say this to the count, but according to the opponent's military strength, it is not impossible to capture Mandola City by force. It just costs more than Leilong City. But judging from the fact that the other party just retreated after feinting, it is really confusing. " Count Astine looked worried when he heard this, but he didn't. Say something to rebut. Indeed, in his opinion, this was also quite strange. "The answer to the question lies here. I think they must have something they want to protect, so they are so cautious. And I don't know if you have thought about it. The actions of the devil and his party have been very cautious from the beginning. Looking at the entire kingdom, a little analysis will show that they appear in remote areas on the border of the kingdom. This is because they knew from the beginning that this was the weakest area for the kingdom's army. " "You suspect that these devils are following. Are some people in the kingdom colluding?" Dodori, who has always been taciturn, couldn't help but ask. "It's not a suspicion, it's been confirmed. But don't ask me who I am or how I know it. In short, the devil has intelligence sources that we don't know about. And they arranged the situation so carefully, but the thunder and rain are heavy, which proves that they They are waiting for an opportunity, or planning for a certain breaking point. "So Sir Lancelot, do you think they are planning something in Leilong City?" Baron Gerson. asked. After what Lance said, Baron Gerson felt that this was a reason he could believe in, because the undead's external wars were also like this. They often captured a fortress or town with a large number of people, and then killed them in a place full of corpses. Build tombs somewhere, and then let the lichs continuously transform the dead corpses into undead soldiers. Because the undead are adjacent to this side. So Baron Gerson thought of this example immediately, and the devil, as a mysterious intruder, might have similar methods. "Generally speaking, I do think so," Lance still did not agree to the Baron's idea: "But I have seen their troops, those devil's warships emerging from the flame warships, carrying their soldiers and appearing in The lands they want to conquer are, to put it bluntly, thoseStrength is really nothing. Perhaps, as you said just now, Mr. Eugene, if I give you a large demon army, you can easily eliminate them all. " "Then why are you still standing there? Hurry up and finish them off and go back to the lord. "Eugene felt excited when he heard that Lance actually agreed. "That's why I said it was strange. It stands to reason that since the devil knows the distribution of cases in the kingdom, it is impossible that he does not know the strength of our various tribes' military strength. However, they only sent such a small number of troops to try to conquer the abyss. Isn't this ridiculous? " "They are indeed a bunch of fools. "Eugene nodded in agreement, but the expressions of the others turned gloomy. "Idiot, what the young master means is that they still have a backup plan. What they are sending now is just an advance troop to explore the road. "Dodori said. "Then why don't they come here at once? Is there no need to go to such trouble? "Eugene's eyes widened. "I'm afraid it's not unwillingness, but inability. Judging from our situation, it's like His Highness the Demon King wants to conquer the human world. Logically speaking, his power and the kingdom's army can do it. At this point, but without the gate of time and space as a passage, no matter how powerful the devil is, we cannot reach the human world, so how can we talk about conquest? " " But aren't they already here? "Eugene felt that the more he spoke, the more confused he became. "They are here, but as far as I understand, the way they opened the channel was not perfect, so only these vanguard troops appeared to occupy the territory first, and then tried to transport the main troops. Come over and start their invasion plan. " "Indeed, if you think about it this way, it can explain why the other party has been huddled in one place and stood still. It can also explain why they found out that our scouts reacted so violently. But this doesn't exactly explain why they want to Is the thing you want to protect located in Leitaki City? asked Earl Astin. "I don't think so." Such an obvious intention would make people feel like a trap, and judging from the fact that I fought with the same group of guys in Feronte County, the devils are accustomed to starting to establish their own sphere of influence after landing. I also asked the Baron just now if Leilong City has any special resources, but his answer was no. Thinking about it this way, the possibility that the other party is setting up suspicions is very high. Deliberately gathering troops to attack Leilong City. "After Lang paused for a moment, he pointed to the strategic map spread out on the table and said: "And judging from the distribution of these three cities, Leilong City is the first to bear the brunt. In terms of the regular attack sequence, it should also be here. This is our first battle. Therefore, the opponent's deployment of troops here can achieve this goal. " "That means the real venue is somewhere else? " "I also said before, the devil is racing against time now. They don't care too much about the quality of the environment. Once they have a firm foothold, they will quickly implement their plan. After all, more time means more danger, so this can It can be deduced that their current base camp should undoubtedly be located in Baron County, which was first destroyed by them. And judging from the fact that the other party is not willing to distract us in this way, the plan set by the other party will probably succeed soon. " After Lance finished speaking, several important people in the camp were lost in thought. Finally, Eugene spoke: "So, young master, you mean that the place we want to attack is this Baron County? " "Not only must it be struck down, but it must also be done with speed. You must win with one blow without giving the opponent any chance to react. "Lance nodded affirmatively and emphasized. At this time, Eugene asked some questions uneasily: "But these are all based on your conjectures. If the other party is not like this" " If the other party is not like this, there will be no substantial loss to us, right? Anyway, these three places must be recovered. "Lance added with a smile. "That's true. "Eugene finally nodded in agreement. "I convinced one of them. Lance looked at Dodori again. Although he was indeed appointed as the commander-in-chief by his father, Old Railton, he was not actually the only one in this army. After all, Eugene and Dodori are both Lance's bodyguards and his control. After all, they are the main force of the kingdom and are not just for fun. The old lord wants to avoid Lance's whims. The damage caused by the order, so before Lance issues the order, it must be approved by both Eugene and Dodori. Although according to the rules, only one of the two people agrees, Lance still sought the opinions of the other party. Seeing Lance's gaze, Dodori nodded: "Just do what the young master said. " After receiving Dudori's reply, Lance finally breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the other party finally recognized him, and it was not a waste of his words.Explain it to these guys. But it¡¯s really troublesome. If you¡¯re in Gululing, you can¡¯t give orders by yourself. He was very happy that he could make up such a magnificent reason to scare these guys without telling them that he was so sure because he had read Yiwen's prophecy a long time ago. "Very good!" Lance glanced at everyone happily, and finally set his sights on Count Astin: "Then, Count, I would like to trouble you to prepare for us the food and grass for our march tomorrow morning, as well as a person who is familiar with the surrounding environment. "Guide." "Understood." Count Astine nodded. He has already done this work. Now that he has reached the final part, he will be able to return to Lance soon. As for the guide, it will be easier. . But what I didn't expect was that the Baron actually volunteered to recommend himself to Lance: "Lord Lancelot, if you don't mind, please take me with you. I am very familiar with the terrain nearby and have fought against the devil's army." "Lance knew that he was eager for revenge, because the city was not destroyed. He didn't believe that people who didn't pay attention died in that battle, but Lance didn't let his compassion hinder his decision-making: "Lord Baron, so I do have a task for you"
