Chapter 289 The Battle Prelude

He went to Quellings' hut, and threw two thousand rookies of the morning slasher in Hawksbill's crazy expression, and returned to the North Post Tower with 1,500 regular rangers.

In the past few days, the army of Silver Dawn and the main elites of the Brotherhood of the Holy Light arrived one after another. Under the leadership of Silver Commander Erigore, a defense line was formed to block reinforcements that might have come from the Natural Scourge Base Camp. When this army arrived, the whistle and hut that were originally the first to be hit would immediately become a rear. The strategic materials of the Silver Alliance would be piled up in these two places, and the security would undoubtedly be greatly improved. Therefore, Hawkesbill did not object to Xie Feng's borrowing behavior and agreed happily.

When they returned to the sentry tower, Xie Feng immediately began to prepare. On one hand, he reported various information to the Shinmoon City of Weiliya Delin and Lothama and others, so that they could have time to react. On the other hand, they actively rectified the soldiers and selected elite soldiers, and began to send a large number of scouts and issue tasks to adventurers, collecting various intelligence on the natural disaster of Heimu Lake.

With the arrival of Woller, the scouts' forces have a lot of capabilities. Although the leader of the Silver Moon Ranger cannot stand alone, he is very comfortable with this kind of reconnaissance mission, which makes Xie Feng's grasp of information from all parties more complete and timely.

Although Thrace, who was recently promoted, is still a little uncomfortable with the sudden change in identity, it is also very fast. I believe that in the near future, in addition to Salin, Xie Feng will have more capable subordinates and even think tanks!

In addition, the four magicians brought here have been staying at the North Post Tower for defense these days. Occasionally, they distributed some small tasks to the adventurers in their personal name, asking them to help collect some special experimental materials. If they are in a good mood, they will also explain some knowledge of spell casting or enchanting to the adventurers they like. Life is comfortable. As for the upper elf Sirendis, he mingled with Angela all day long, and didn't know what he was trying to do. The defense of the sentry has no effect at all...

The following time was spent in a tight and busy manner. The silver dawn had already begun to mobilize troops. A large number of elite soldiers were frequently mobilized along the first transportation line. In just three days, tens of thousands of silver soldiers gathered on the line of the east wall and posed for siege to siege the North Valley. The three thousand forwards secretly hid in the mountains below Zumashar.

The bloody crusaders in Tyr's hand were the opposite! In order not to let the natural disasters notice their plans, they not only did not shrink and assemble, but instead frequently dispatched, attacking various strongholds in the natural disasters in units of squadrons, and were not spared even the target Kaolin intersection.

These attacking troops seem to have different numbers, almost every blood-colored team has them, but in fact they are only a small number of soldiers affiliated with Marland. However, every attack will change their outfits and numbers, and put on a full-scale stance in front of the natural disaster! As a result, the natural disaster not only did not shrink its troops, but instead deliberately dispersed the defense to give them an opportunity to attract blood-colored continued to attack like this, and used their advantages to slaughter their attention. In three days, the Scourge Army lost a lot of cannon fodder, but there were only a few blood-colored soldiers left, but on the other hand, a large number of elite troops secretly gathered behind the towering city wall of Tyr's hand...

On the other hand, the Withered Legion on Maris Farm is undoubtedly much more difficult than these two forces. Since the Lich escaped, it has been replenishing its troops from Dalong County to harass the Crown Whistle Tower. The Scourge Barracks in Mushroom Valley also took advantage of the scourge to attack. The two Forsaken leaders, Nathanos*Windlers and Ask*Fallen, had to disperse their troops and guard one place to encourage and resist. Although they were eager to attack bloodily, they were powerless to do anything about it.

Although the situation was good and bad everywhere, they were barely prepared for the pre-war preparations. Ambush and reinforcements were in place everywhere, and logistics supplies were delivered to each battlefield in advance. Bruce's cavalry also expanded comprehensively, packing all the supplies sent to the Forgotten and transporting them to the east wall mail tower to wait for the opportunity.

The time is almost the same. Leadlin said that the top strong man he wanted to send has not appeared yet. Xie Feng had no choice but to invite Hawksbill to the sentry tower again, and he took five hundred blood knights and one thousand five hundred rangers, a total of two thousand people secretly set out and hid in the valley near the Sancha Road intersection...

Although all the actions were very concealed and there were no mistakes. Although the Blood Crusaders attacked everywhere regardless of casualties and tried to disrupt the sight and attention of the natural disaster, this place was a place of Eastern Plagues everywhere. In the heyday, General Ke brought a large number of strong men to take charge! The omnipresent natural disaster scouts had already discovered that the atmosphere here was something wrong~ But by the time the senior management of the natural disaster reacted and wanted to deal with it, it was too late!

Just on the fourth day after the plan was finalized, Xie Feng, who had been ambushed in the mountainous area at Sancha Road for a night, was found by spies under the blood-colored crusader Luo Han...

"General Alex, the Grand Lord has begun to act and is expected to arrive outside the intersection of Colin Road at noon!"

The spy in front of him was dressed in the same color as the dark brown land of the Eastern Plague, but the red face towel with a blood mark on the marker was destroyed by the hidden feeling. Coupled with the pair of fanatic and blind eyes, Xie Feng felt a little confused... He waved helplessly: "I understand! Tell Vadmal that the Blood Crusader will never be attacked from other directions. He only needs to face the natural disaster from Kaolin!"

For his impolite name, a trace of fierce anger flashed in the blood-colored spy's eyes, but in the end he was pretty clear, and did not explode on the spot, leaving without saying a word.

"It's quite like a secret worker! Except for the hellish face towel..." Xie Feng curled his lips disdainfully, turned around and shouted: "Get together, go!"

The blood elves hidden in the hillsides and on both sides of the road came out and formed two large formations in an instant. Five hundred blood knights were neatly arranged in front, and behind were slightly loose rangers...

"Sir, there is more than an hour before noon. The Blood Crusader has just set out. Let's act now and it is likely to attract natural disasters in other directions..." Thrace asked with concern while commanding the troops to assemble. Now set off and arrive at the periphery of Blackwood Lake in half an hour, and the Blood Crusader will start attacking the intersection of Kaolin Road in half an hour. If the natural disasters that should belong to them are attracted to him during this period, then the fun will be great!

Xie Feng turned around, looked at him with a smile, and said happily: "Our mission is the easiest, so we must be the first to launch an attack to create favorable conditions for other Allies!"

Thrace asked with a whimper a little, wonderingly: "But in this way, the pressure we face will be greater! Not to mention that casualties will increase, if we can't hold on, it may be..."

"Can't hold on? Did I say I have to hold on?!" Xie Feng curled his lips, pointed at the soldiers gathered below, and smiled evilly: "Do you think I will exchange the lives of my own tribe for the convenience or victory of other troops? Even if they are the so-called allies?!"

"Haha~ If you know him enough, you won't ask this sentence!" A faint purple figure slowly appeared behind Xie Feng, took the reins of the war horse handed over by a blood knight, and teased at the embarrassing Thrace: "He can only push others into the water to test dangerous actions. He has never taken the initiative to give, and he has always been like this since he knew him!"

"Cough~ Cough~" Xie Feng's old face suddenly turned red, he coughed twice, glared at the mage who was destroying the situation in front of his subordinates, and said unhappily:

"Is it okay for me to be plotted against?" This battle was a big deal. To be on the safe side, Xie Feng took out Xilundis, who was having fun with Angela, despite his opposition. I think she is still a little unhappy...

Shilundis rolled his eyes: "It seems like I've only seen you plot against others~ and those people's fate is very miserable, such as the poor Ninth Legion~"

"Shut up!" Xie Feng was shocked, shouted sternly in panic, turned around and cursed at Serez, "What are you looking at?! Let me go!"

The old subordinates of Xilundis, Terry, Gallinder, etc. all know about the plague war. Although the matter has passed, it will inevitably lead to another mess if it is really spread. This kind of thing is a big problem no matter when it is dug up. It is entirely possible that Xie Feng's reputation will be completely ruined!

Xilundis also knew the seriousness of the matter. Looking at Xie Feng, who was still scared, he curled his lips and stopped talking. He turned over and followed the team immediately.

For a quarter of an hour, Xie Feng, who walked out of the small mountain area from the southern part of Sancha Road, did not go directly to the middle of Heimu Lake and Kaolin. After walking to the dry river channel, he turned directly to the northwest, and detoured the north of Heimu Lake. This allowed the Blood Knight to start attacking and attract the attention of the undead natural disaster.

But this is completely different from the original plan. It all detours the back of the lake. How to prevent the undead natural disaster from going to Kaolin to join the war? At first, Thrace was very puzzled by Xie Feng's approach and didn't know what it was for here. However, he did not think that Xie Feng had a water in his mind and accidentally took the wrong path. Instead, he was looking forward to Xie Feng's final intention...

"The Blood Knight holds the shield, and the formation of the circle resists the attack and slowly retreats! The ranger is divided into two teams, one team kills the hatred, the banshee and the gargoyle, and the other team clears the way out!" Looking at the large number of undead gradually surrounding from afar, Xie Feng calmly ordered.

Most of the undead in Black Wood Lake are idle non-staff members, but not only that, but it is also a large base. The Scourge also sent many undead mages and cursed believers to collect cannon fodder, but there were no lichs or death knights in charge.

At this time, these natural disaster mages saw a small number of blood elves attacking him. Although they felt guilty, they relied on the large number of people to launch a tentative attack. As a result, they unexpectedly repelled the elves. Suddenly, their confidence rose sharply, and everyone surrounded him with great momentum...

While fighting, the Blood Knights retreated back to the east bank of Heimu Lake again, but unlike before, they easily crossed the river channel to the opposite side, blocking the undead who was chasing behind them.

"Why choose this?" Xilundis looked at Xie Feng with some confusion and asked, "Isn't this more likely to be surrounded by natural disasters?"

Xie Feng refused to answer, and continued to order the Blood Knights to block here for a while, and ordered again: "Continue to retreat!"

"Are you crazy? These are tens of thousands of undead!" Even Xilundis couldn't help but doubt Xie Feng's actions. In this narrow area, he could barely support the blood knights' strength, but once he retreated again, he would face at least 50,000 natural disaster troops! With such a few blood elves, he was purely killed!

"Nothing scary!" Thrace frowned and retorted: "These undead have no supreme commander, they are all mobs, and there is no cooperation at all! And even if we retreat, the undeads that chased them will not pass in a short time, and they only need to face about 30,000..."

"So what about 30,000? Can you guys stop them?" Shilundis stopped slightly and then said disdainfully.

Thrace was speechless, ignoring the military idiot, turned his head and looked at Xie Feng with anticipation.

"Retreat along the river! Don't fight, hurry up!" Xie Feng gave a loud order, commanding the troops to retreat in an orderly manner, and asked with a smile: "Guess!"

"..." Thrace's expression froze and the corners of her mouth twitched a few times...

"Start half an hour in advance and attack the undead on the north side of Heimu Lake first. You can avoid the investigation at the Kaolin intersection in a short period of time and attract the undead on the north bank. Not only can you cause chaos by relying on their unknown command rights, but you can also allow Silver Dawn to be arranged calmly and establish defense lines as quickly as possible, so that natural disasters cannot be dispatched to supervise the battle! In this way, Heimu Lake can be restrained by us alone..."

"Now it retreats to the south bank because there is not much time left. The battle at the Kaolin intersection will soon be fought. We must rush back as soon as possible to intercept the undead in Heimu Lake!"

"As for our lack of strength and being unable to restrain the 30,000 natural disasters... I think the general has prepared another batch of reinforcements!"

After listening to Thrace's analysis, Xie Feng showed a hint of encouragement and admiration on the surface, but he felt a little disappointed in his heart. It's not that Thrace guessed wrongly, he was basically nothing different from Xie Feng's plan! But Xie Feng had been planning this plan for a long time, and it was guessed so easily, and he was a little disappointed...

Seeing Xie Feng’s agreement, Xilundis knew it and looked like this: “I just said you must be digging something again… Are they those morning archers?”

Thrace did not refute this, obviously also believed that the reinforcements were Morning Shooter shooters, but asked in confusion: "But General, we gather the natural disasters on the North Shore together. If they are blocked and turn around and attack the Silver Dawn defense line from behind, wouldn't it be very dangerous?"

"I finally didn't guess it completely..." Xie Feng was overjoyed and quietly breathed a sigh of relief, but he looked surprised and asked, "Are there any Morning Shooter, the Blood Knight and Hawksbill of the North Side Tower? They can quickly eliminate the undeads, right?"

In addition, I heard this: "What should I do here? Two thousand to 30,000?"

"Just find another batch of reinforcements!" Xie Feng replied confidently.

The team continued to retreat along the river channel. The natural disaster on the north bank that was chasing behind was blocked between the river channel and the lake due to inconvenient command. Only a few rushed over to continue chasing. However, when the natural disaster on the south bank saw the blood elves appear, it was like a shark smelling blood, swarming in~

Seeing that the blood elves were about to be surrounded by tens of thousands of undeads, a mess suddenly came from the north of the river. Then, thousands of people mixed with various races, holding various weapons and shouting various slogans, divided into dozens of teams of different sizes, quickly ran across the river and rushed into the undead team...

Shilundis was stunned: "This is... those adventurers? You actually use them?"

Xie Feng shrugged calmly and replied, "Why not? Isn't the mob against the mob? Don't underestimate the adventurers!"

We really can't underestimate adventurers! These guys with no organizational discipline are completely vulnerable to the regular troops of various race forces. The innate fear of the indigenous people and their own casual characteristics give them no room for fighting back! But if they encounter the Scourge Legion, which is also a rascal group, will definitely be a tiger entering the flock!

"Although their strength is indeed stronger than natural disasters, their discipline is almost the same... But there are no top-level strong people among them!" Xilundis still refused to give up. The fifth-level adventurer did want to snatch most natural disaster troops, and even hatred could be worn away. However, if he encountered those mages of level six or even level seven or above, he would have no power to fight back...

"Who said there are no strong people among them? I asked the adventurers of the four organizations, Darennis and others, to come..." Xie Feng smiled.

Shilundis......

With adventurers as shields, the natural disasters had no time to estimate the blood elves. Xie Feng took advantage of the opportunity to lead the blood knights and rangers out of the encirclement, bypassed the main battlefield beside the river, and came to the back of the natural disaster very easily, blocking their road to the intersection of Kaolin.

Five hundred blood knights are divided into five teams. If a large number of natural disasters come, they will be dispersed directly, while the rangers are divided into two groups. Some are completely dispersed, shooting and killing the idle undead on the road, and the other is cooperating with the blood knight to kill organized natural disasters~

It was almost noon, and the undead and adventurers on the edge of the river were fighting. It was obvious that they met the opponent and cherished each other. However, the blood elves team was extremely leisurely. Occasionally, a few small teams of natural disasters that were not eye-catching came to provoke, and then they were there waiting for the rabbit, which was extremely relaxed.

Just when everyone was bored and lazy, Woller, who was in the investigation mission, suddenly sent someone back to report it~

"Sir! The Scourge Corps at the intersection of Kaolin Road has begun to assemble, with a total of 20,000 high-level troops, and they are about to head here!"
Chapter completed!
