Chapter 306: Deportation
The border fortress of the thousand-year-old empire, in the past, the military paid enough attention to the border to build a very stable fortress, which is also the reason why Najeta has been able to hold on to this day, after all, Wayne will not be stupid enough to choose to attack such a fortress, and there will inevitably be heavy casualties at that time.
Therefore, Wayne chose to surround but not fight, cutting off the opponent's supply line and making it run out of ammunition and food.
Of course, such a tactic is risky, if the enemy feels that reinforcements will outflank the rear at that time, then he will not care about it, so he asked Griffith to arrange for the cavalry regiment of his former descendant Dragon Regiment to lurk behind him, led by his henchman Laugus, the future admiral of the Inu.
He wished he hadn't used the ambush, because it meant he couldn't take the fortress.
Obviously, God never lets people get their wishes.
As Wayne laid siege to the border fortress in front of him, Estes led her troops to the rear of Wayne's army by two-thirds of the way, despite the fact that reinforcements had expired.
Coming to the location of the plain of the former imperial garrison, the Kamath Plain, which is called the Inu Ranch, Estes raised his hand to signal the army to stop, and as the sound of orders sounded endlessly, 30,000 people slowly stopped, motionless like a forest.
beckoned, and a figure turned out behind him, but seeing that he was about forty years old, his face was serious, his body was straight, he had a standard military image, and his demeanor was also extremely good. Although he does not have strong muscles, it can be seen from his wise eyes that he is good at using his wits to do things, not to fight against them.
His name is Liwa, the former general of the Empire, wise and brave, only because he refused to bribe his superiors and was dismissed from his post and retained, and was saved by Estes, and has been loyal to her since then, and Estes has relied on him a lot.
"Liva, now that our position is in the rear of their army, what next?"
Hearing the inquiry, Liwa thought for a moment, his eyes flashed, and he said respectfully, "From the analysis of the information sent back by General Najeta, the other party's main brush is a contradictory character who combines adventure and caution, if I were him, I would definitely lay an ambush on the back road, in case there is a situation where reinforcements will take a detour back road." Therefore, if we rush into it now, I am afraid that it will be his backhand that will be put to use. ”
Estes raised his eyebrows, "And what do you mean?" You can't let me come for nothing, can you? ”
Seeing the frenzy in Estes's eyes flashing in the face of the upcoming war, and the dissatisfaction caused by the fact that the plan was blocked and it was likely that there would be no fight, Liwa smiled bitterly, "General, don't worry, you will definitely fight this battle." ”
"Then you should tell me and see, if it really doesn't work, just run it over from the front."
Estes pursed her lips, it seemed that in her thoughts, Mitland's so-called elite was nothing more than a rabble, and this was also true, with the terrible imperial tool of 'Demon God Manifestation', she alone was equivalent to an army.
Liwa still responded with a wry smile, and after a silent half-time, he said softly, "The only way now is to divide the troops, and I will lead some people to deal with their ambush troops, and general, you will select an elite army to bypass here and go straight to the battlefield!" ”
This is indeed a good idea, and it also gives Estes full freedom, and at the same time maximizes the strength of this team, after all, if Estes fights, if he can't control ten pieces, he will probably be inseparable from him.
Although she is a little unfamiliar with the division of troops, Estes is still Eliva's strategy, and she is not good at planning, so she has to admit that Liva's tactics will have a better effect, after all, their goal is to rescue the Imperial army in the border fortress, not to fight Mitland to the end.
Soon, Estes took a detour with 5,000 elites, leaving Liva with most of the remaining team to continue to march forward, swaggering as if he was afraid that others would not know that the Imperial Army was coming.
Soon, Wayne's side received information about the Imperial army appearing in the rear, and Laugus stated in the letter that he had already engaged the other side, which made him a little depressed.
As soon as the reinforcements arrive, then the time can no longer be delayed, and if it drags on, there is no doubt that it will be another protracted tug-of-war.
If it weren't for the hope of capturing the border fortress as a nail in the coffin for troops to enter the thousand-year-old empire at any time, he would have retreated after recovering the entire territory of Inu, after all, this is related to his future plan to attack the empire.
Thinking of this, Wayne's face was a little cloudy, and in the middle of a loud voice, he called Gus and Zod.
"Tell me to go down and carry out the last general attack, if we can't attack it, we'll go!"
When the battle resumed, Wayne's side launched a final general attack, and one after another ladders went straight up to the city tower, and the soldiers who were not afraid of death rushed up the ladders to sacrifice their lives for the first achievement in the city, and the blood spread from the cracks across the outer walls of the fortress until they converged on the edge of the wall and turned into a small stream, showing how cruel the war was from the side.
It could not be attacked for a long time, but in fact, the imperial army in the fortress was already exhausted, and they had not eaten or drunk for many days, and their bodies were already deprived.
Najeta, who pursed her chapped lips, licked the corners of her bloody mouth, and shot the enemy soldiers who were about to reach the top of the city, and couldn't help but start shaking her body, this is a situation where her mental power has been seriously overdrawn, and if she continues like this, even if she is not killed by the enemy, she will die due to the exhaustion of her mental power.
For a moment, she wanted to give up, but the honor of being a soldier made her give up.
Perhaps the reinforcements are no longer there, and there should be no expectations.
Looking around at the haggard but resolute-looking soldiers, Najeta pursed her lips fiercely, and let her and the warriors under her command enjoy the highest standard of death of warriors.
This town, Wayne looked at Najeta, who had reached this level but was still desperate, and couldn't help but sigh, to be honest, he admired the other party very much, but war is war, and under the premise of not seeing prisoners and recruitment, killing the other party is the best choice.
It's just that he's not such an unscrupulous person, and it doesn't hurt to let even one Najeta go.
Just as he slowly raised his hand, about to stop the attack, there was a commotion from the right flank of the town.
Wayne turned his head, only to see ice crystals filling the air, spreading towards him at an extremely fast speed.
