Chapter 10023: A Little Story
On September 19, the rain hit the mountains and forests, and it was muddy. Ruhl and his army fended off the enemy's attack on the eastern side of the Volkan moat, and most of the western and central parts of the line had been occupied by St. Vicia, more than three-fifths of the total defensive line. If the entire Volcan Mountains are occupied, the Demon Moon will always be at a geographical disadvantage to St. Bikja in the future, so the remaining area must not be lost, it is a matter of national gateway, even if the whole army dies, it will not be able to take a step back.
At this time, although Ruhr was defeated in a row, Fried only had a slight advantage over the Demon Moon, and the two sides fought on the Volkan Mountains, and the victory or defeat depended on whose skills and tactics were better.
After a few days of fighting, the forces of St. Bikkya have been redeployed, and Fried personally led the troops, leading the Wizard Knight Artemit, the Magic Knight Almeida and others to attack from west to east within the defensive line, which is also the main attack direction of the army. On the other hand, Vidmila led the troops, led the Minotaur Orc Legion, the Purple Star Warlord Grefa, and the Centaur General Eiffel Legion, and the Xiangshang Legion south of the Demon Moon Defense Area to assist the attack, forming a situation of attacking from both sides.
On the Demon Moon side, in order to deal with the enemy's attack tactics, Ruhr had to transfer most of his troops to defend to the west, because the enemy attacking in the defense line was the most threatening. And he understood that the Widmila army on the south side of the defense line was mainly to contain his own forces, so he left two armies of Dragon Soul General Muto and Long Yan General Jodah as a response.
At this time, because of the hasty retreat before, White Rock City and Shayan City were attacked by the enemy one after another. Jodah's army is now retreating to a new stronghold. The Red Mud Valley, which corresponds to the Muto Passport, is connected into a coordinated defense area of the two armies. On the contrary, Widmila's army, seven kilometers away, also relied on the cities of Shayan and Baishi to form an offensive against Muto and Jodah.
The war has been held here for several days, Jodah relied on the geographical advantage and defensive line to hold the red mud valley steadily, the enemy army failed several attacks, and also changed tactics, looking for new fighters and combat plans. However, attacks on the camp by both sides occurred occasionally.
It is said to be a valley, but in fact, the camp where Jodah is located is on the top of the mountain and on the mountainside, and it is not one, but several camps that depend on each other. The Red Mud Valley is surrounded by mountains on three sides. If the St. Pectian's army in the south wanted to attack, there were only two ways, one was to take a detour and bypass the rolling hills on both sides, but this would not only be a long way, but also that both the Jodah and Muto armies would have enough time to react, and it would be easier for them to be copied back.
Another way was to march directly from the Red Mud Valley, but Jodah had already set up fortifications on the hills on both sides, and storming the valley would be tantamount to luring the tiger into the cage, which would be very disadvantageous to Widmila's army. That's why the two sides will be stuck here for a while.
However, Widmila was not in a hurry to attack, he had always been a very calm man, and he knew that his primary purpose here was to contain the Ruhr's army and relieve the pressure of Marshal Fried's attack. Although the Ruhr only sent two armies to defend the south, they were also very scruples about the south, so they had to divide their troops as backup to the west and south. In this way, Widmila not only contained nearly 100,000 troops of the Demon Moon, but also attracted Ruhl's attention on the battlefield, nailing a needle to Ruhl's back from time to time, making him stab him in the back.
The four camps of Jodah's barracks guarded the mountaintops of the peaks on either side, and the other camp guarded the central mountain to the north. A total of 27,000 men guarded the town. After the retreat to the north, Jodah's army was reorganized, and part of the army of Irif the Striker, who had been killed in battle, was temporarily incorporated under his command as a combined army. Only then did we have the current 27,000 troops.
In the barracks, the soldiers are on their own for changing the guard. In the sky, the monsters, unaffected by the heavy rain, carried the soldiers back and forth to reconnoitre. Vane took a dry rag to rub oil and rust on the orcas, and the tiger sword and armor next to him were polished and shiny. ...,
"Hey Vane. The passing soldier greeted him: "Are you healed?"
"Well, much better, xiexie. Vane smiled at him, and continued to wipe his knife under the canopy.
After a while, Lowe came with a pile of food: "Wayne, here is the food, prepare to make a fire." Heavy rain is still a bit beneficial, even if the supplies are not enough, the mountains are full of monsters and animals that have escaped the flood, and it is enough for us to eat. Huh, where's Irina?"
"I'm in a hurry. Vane put down the knife, took some of the food and looked at it: "Hey, why don't you even pluck the grass chicken you caught?"
Luo smiled: "This kind of thing is plucking, it's better to leave it to a meticulous woman to do, I don't know if it's because I've been fighting too much recently or what, my strength is not well controlled, and even the skin of the chicken was torn off with the plucking just now." I also caught a few armadillos, enough for dinner and supper. ”
"Armadillos are delicious, so let's eat this first. Vane couldn't wait to pick up an armadillo, chop off its head with a knife, and was about to peel its scales.
"Hey, hey, hey, peel the shell and go over there, there's still someone to be done here. Don't get all over the place. ”
Not long after Irina returned, the three of them set up a pot and made a fire, put condiments, wild vegetables and rice, and boiled a large pot of porridge with sliced meat.
"Ah, it smells so good. Vane couldn't help but take a spoonful and taste it, "Well, Irina, can you eat it?" ”
Irina picked up the greens, and still had a neck guard around her neck, but it didn't hurt so much: "Eat your size, it will take an hour to cook before it is delicious, and besides, Bimoye, the captain, and everyone didn't come." ”
"We can eat first, and we can't finish it. Vane pursed his lips and could only stare at the porridge in the pot.
Not long after, the other mercenaries who lived together returned, chatting under the canopy.
One said: "Don't wait for Bimoye, he doesn't know when he will come, maybe he will have a meal with the chiefs, let's eat first." ”
"Well, that's fine. Sein filled a bowl of porridge by himself and said, "By the way, Vane and Luo, last time you talked about your battle experience in Burning Sun City, and then you will go to the Forest of Warcraft, is it true?"
Vane nodded: "Am I still lying to you??Going to the Warcraft Forest to adventure is the big goal of our bloody mercenary group, we have been preparing for this matter for two years, and if we go back safely this time, it is estimated that we should go to the action." ”
"Hey, but Vane, is it enough to go to the Warcraft Forest with your strength? ”
"Cut, look at me, don't you, do you think I've ever flinched on the battlefield?" Vane said unhappily.
The man said: "This is different, the battlefield is a face-to-face battle with the enemy, and what is needed is courage. But venturing into the middle of nowhere, not only courage, but also knowledge, wisdom, and the ability to respond to danger. Three years ago, my mercenary group teamed up with two other mercenary groups to complete a mission together, and that time we were directly commissioned by our employer to go to a snowy mountain to find a sewing cave. But when we arrived at the snow-capped mountain, we found that there were dangers everywhere, and there were many cliffs and caves. Soon we were lost there, our teammates were dying in danger, and our three mercenary groups were arguing. We said we were going to give up on the task, but the other two teams decided to continue looking because the employer was paying us too much. Later, we parted ways, and the two mercenaries continued their mission, and we chose to leave. After returning to the town, we were still not at ease with the two mercenary groups, and waited in the town for a long time, until more than a month later, when they came out of the mountains, and there were only two of them left. After asking, they found the sewing cave, but it didn't take long for them to encounter a large number of sewing gushes, and almost all of them died, except for their team of people who were responsible for guarding the supplies outside the cave. ”...,
Vane frowned and said, "What do you want to say about this story?"
Irina said: "Stupid, he means do what you can, don't do what you can't do." ”
Vane was unhappy and said, "Hmph, he just underestimated me." ”
The mercenary sighed: "This is my personal experience, and it is also my advice, it is up to you to listen to it or not." The top ten forbidden places, even if the Warcraft Forest is the most familiar to everyone, it is not a place that can easily wade into danger, that kind of place, even the elites of the A-level mercenary group, must do what they can. ”
Irina smiled and said, "Xiexie, we'll remember your advice." ”
"But we have to go to the Warcraft Forest, we have to go. Vane said firmly, "If that's the only place where I can find a way to save Cornelia, then no one can stop me!"
After eating, everyone went their separate ways, and Bimoyer came back and said, "Well, you're all done?"
"yes, have you eaten?" asked Irina.
Bimoyer said: "Forget it, I won't eat it." Luo, are your injuries healed?"
Luo Dao: "The trauma medicine you found for us is very useful, it's no big deal, these prey are all from me." What's the matter?"
Bimoyer said: "The enemy's attack has slowed down a little in the past two days, and I want to take advantage of this free time to go nearby to see the terrain." ”
"Look......" Wayne burped and patted his chest, "Isn't there a topographic map?"
"It's better to look at a map than to see it with your own eyes. Luo, are you coming with me?" asked Bimoyer.
Luo Dao: "Of course, how can such an activity be without me. ”
"And me, I'm going too. Vane raised his hand.
Bimoyer looked at him, "Can you go like this?"
"Nonsense!" Wayne stood up with the tiger spirit, "I've been nursing my injuries for so many days, and I'm about to." When I stopped moving, I simply switched to the camp to help others clean their armor. ”
Irina smiled.
"What are you laughing at? Is there anything funny about that?" Vane said.
Irina said, "Who laughed at you." I found that Bimoyer was very different from before, he used to do everything by himself, and now he actually came to us and asked Luo if he wanted to go. ”
Wayne smiled: "This shows that my relationship is better." ”
"Hmph!" snorted softly than Moyer, "I'll wait for you at the top of the hill over there." With that, he turned around and left.
Irina giggled, "You see, he's still shy. ”
