General Dardanelle stood on a rock protruding from the position on the top of the mountain, holding a telescope and looking at the camp of the Lampali Kingdom's army at the foot of the mountain in the distance with a stern expression. The army of the Lampali Kingdom has been stationed at the foot of the mountain for two days, but there has been no movement. It is really strange. But General Dardanelle did not dare to take it lightly. After all, he was leading his legion to guard the most important pass leading to the northern province of the former Kandra Empire. Once it was lost, the Maro Empire's control of the northern province of the Kandra Empire would be completely destroyed. Exposed to the army of Lampali Kingdom. Based on the current comparison of the strength of the two armies, if the Lampali Kingdom's army cannot be stopped at such a pass that is easy to defend and difficult to attack and allows them to flow into the northern plains of the Kandra Empire, it means that the Malo Empire had difficulty controlling it before. The territory was completely lost. However can it be defended? General Dardanelle looked up at the sky and smiled bitterly. It can be said that the military combat magic airship of the Lampali Kingdom is much better than that of the Malo Empire in all aspects, so that when the two armies confront each other now, the Lampali Kingdom always controls the air, and the Malo Empire It can only be controlled everywhere. In order to regain the disadvantage in air superiority, it is said that the empire has begun to discuss restarting the magician corps system, bringing the powerful magicians accumulated over the years in the empire back to the battlefield, and relying on them to deal with the magic airship brigade of the Lampali Kingdom. ?On the surface, this proposal does not make sense. Although the magic airship is powerful, it is not as flexible as it is due to its large size. If we use powerful magicians to deal with it, with the current magicians' in-depth research and understanding of magic space, it will not be like when we first encountered the magic airship of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, because the simplest magic element space lock will be completely useless. If there is no power to fight back, then there is hope to contend with it. But in fact, the feasibility of this proposal is extremely low. First of all, because they are restricted by the "Peace Convention of Continental Magicians," few magicians in the Maro Empire are willing to take the risk of violating the convention and rejoin the army of the Maro Empire to fight for it. Because this is very likely to cause them to lose all future skills assessment opportunities, and then lose all opportunities to work in other chambers of commerce, research institutes, etc. It is indeed the duty of the magicians of the Maro Empire to serve their country, but no one is willing to do so at the expense of their own future. Secondly. Even if the magicians are willing, the Maro Empire itself may not be willing. Re-recruiting magicians into the army and joining the war with the Lampali Kingdom is a clear violation of the "Continental Magician Peace Convention". The Maro Empire is bound to be criticized by all countries on the entire Sainz continent. This is only more detrimental to the current situation of the Maro Empire. Not until it is absolutely necessary. The Malo Empire is absolutely unwilling to adopt such an approach with endless consequences. ??Besides, even if you really do this, you can only regain part of the air supremacy at most, but it will be difficult to completely suppress the magic airship brigade of the Lampali Kingdom army. As for using this to gain an advantage and defeat the Lampali Kingdom, it is basically impossible. Otherwise, the Maro Empire will definitely insist on doing this even if it tries to be criticized by other countries. We have already killed the Candela Empire. If we completely defeat the Lampali Kingdom, the Malo Empire will be the most powerful country on the Sainz continent. Not one. By that time, it won¡¯t matter what this or that convention is. But it was precisely because of the lack of confidence that the Maro Empire was unable to make this determination. In the distant sky, several black spots flew quickly. General Dardanelle didn¡¯t need to take a closer look to know that it should be another batch of logistics supplies transported by the Lampali Kingdom¡¯s magical cargo airship. He has seen similar situations four times in the past two days alone, which shows how frequently the Lampali Kingdom transports supplies. But after seeing this situation here, General Dardanelle's doubts became even deeper. Since the Lampali Kingdom is willing to be extravagant enough to use magic cargo airships to quickly transport logistical supplies, it proves that their attack power should be very strong. But they waited at the foot of the mountain for two full days and there was still no movement. what is going on? The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, so naturally no matter what you do, you must race against time. Any time is precious, but the army of the Lampali Kingdom wasted two days here. It was a major decision-making mistake. removeNothey are brewing some conspiracy. Thinking of this. General Dardanelle put down his telescope impatiently, grabbed a huge magic call box from the guard beside him, and connected a communication. "Hey, Hanniche, how are you doing there?" "Nothing." A calm and steady voice sounded from the magic call box. "What? Is there a situation over there?" "It would be better if there is a situation!" General Dardanelle snorted. "These damn Lampali people have been stuck at the foot of the mountain for more than two days. But they haven't done anything. What do they want to do?" "Maybe they just want to block you." Over there at the magic talk box Hanniche, like General Dardanelle, is the commander of a garrison regiment of the Maro Empire. Now they command a regiment respectively, each guarding two places that originally belonged to the Candela Empire. Because the two have a good personal relationship and are not far apart from each other, Dardaniel often communicates with Hanniche. "Why are you blocking me? The empire is not ready to counterattack, unless they want to counterattack us." General Dardanelle muttered. "But looking at how they look now, they don't look alike." "Obviously, the New Flying Chamber of Commerce wants to cooperate with the guys from the Candela Empire to stir things up in the west and south. The Lampali Kingdom is cooperating with them. Take action." Hanniche's tone was still calm. "I really don't know what the New Flying Chamber of Commerce is doing. If they really want to take away a piece of the Candela Empire's territory from the empire, they can send out the escort team to rob it openly. Why do they have to beat around the bush? It's so troublesome to go through so much trouble." General Dardanelle's tone was full of disdain. "It is said that Xu Yi, the president of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, is the wisest person. I think he is completely confused now." "If you don't understand anything, just shut up and watch." Hannicher His tone finally changed a little, but it was an unceremonious rebuke to General Dardanelle. "The things that a person like President Xu considers must have his reasons, but we can't see it yet." General Dardanelle sighed helplessly: "Okay, you are Xu Yi's Loyalist, I really shouldn't talk about this topic with you Hanniche, if you were not from our Maro Empire, you would have simply joined the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, right? " "If you were interested in Xu Hui? If you have enough understanding, you will definitely admire him as deeply as I do." Hannicher's tone was very solemn. "But this does not mean that I will choose to join the New Flying Chamber of Commerce. And now is not the time to discuss these issues with you. The empire asked us to guard these two places in order to stabilize the northern area that originally belonged to the Candela Empire. When the empire After digesting this area, I believe there will be further action. As for now, let the Lampali Kingdom and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce struggle in the south. "Of course I understand that they are stuck on the mountain and can't go out. "It's really uncomfortable." General Dardanelle complained. "If you think you can win, then I have no objection to you taking people to fight." Hanniche said coldly. "I'm not crazy yet." General Dardanelle muttered and hung up the communication decisively. The communication with Hanniche has no real meaning. It just allows General Dardanelle to relieve his irritability. He often does this kind of thing, and Hanniche has long been used to it, so in fact, neither party talked about much in the communication, it can only be regarded as nonsense. Seeing General Dardanelle put down the magic call box, a personal guard came over and handed him a form. "General, this is the latest combat readiness report that has just been compiled." General Dardanelle frowned, and finally sighed and took the form. Although he had already been mentally prepared, General Dardanelle still felt a dull pain in his head after seeing the situation clearly on the form. "Compared to yesterday's statistics, the legion's combat readiness has indeed become worse. The form clearly shows that just yesterday, two magic artillery malfunctions occurred. One of them had a direct failure of the firing array, and the other had a crack in the barrel and could not be fired at all. Among the magic shells stored at the same time, after a day, thirteen more were found to have completely lost their effectiveness. In addition, thirty-seven magic repeating guns experienced various malfunctions, the tracks of a magic tank fell off, and even more than a hundred eggs in the warehouse disappeared for no reason All kinds of bad situations accumulated. , which made General Dardanelle upset and angry.?, couldn't help but kicked a tree nearby. "Damn it, those guys in the Logistics Department are eating shit!" Small problems such as missing more than a hundred eggs can be ignored directly, but the various new losses in military equipment failures that occur every day are General Dardanelle couldn't bear it. The military magic machinery of his legion is already at a disadvantage compared to the Kingdom of Lampali. Now there are so many non-combat losses every day. If this continues, there will be no need for the Kingdom of Lampali to fight. He himself will I can't hold on any longer. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but curse the guys from the Logistics Department of the Maro Empire's Military Headquarters loudly in his heart. With the exception of the five Imperial Guard regiments directly under the imperial royal family, the Logistics Administration would always be short-changed when equipping garrison regiments like the one he commanded. The various military magic machines currently equipped by his soldiers are obviously not enough in quantity, and there are also various quality problems. But he also knows that sometimes the Logistics Department is not to blame. (To be continued.)
