In the middle of the night, the two reinforcements of the Shadows all withdrew, which shocked the hearts of the Magic Empire soldiers. In front of them was the last county town of Gangze. As long as they captured this place, Gangze would be destroyed. But at this critical moment, what happened?
What happened to cause Shadow to retreat in such a hurry?
The morale of the soldiers of the Magic Empire was a little shaken, but looking at the commander's tent with the lights still on on the high platform, the throbbing hearts of the soldiers of the Magic Empire calmed down again. Yes, as long as Commander Wood is still there, this war will definitely be won. This
It was Wood who gave the soldiers confidence, and the soldiers completely trusted him.
At this time, the soldiers of the Magic Empire were not sleeping. Everyone was waiting for orders. They were looking at the last city in Gangze, at the slowly disappearing allies, and at the camp of the commander on the high platform. Everyone was waiting.
Wood had been observing Bincheng in Gangze ahead through the sniper crossbow. When Wood put down the sniper crossbow, his deep frown and heavy sigh showed Wood's mood at this time.
The soul body asked tentatively:
"Why not use siege engines? I feel like I can destroy the coastal city of Gangze with just that catapult."
Wood said in a solemn tone:
"If Bincheng ahead were full of Gangze warriors, I would not hesitate to use slings. But there are still millions of civilians there. Martin reported that the streets in Bincheng are full of people now. If I use slings,
, don’t you care about the lives and deaths of civilians?”
The soul body sighed and said:
"You! You are a little too kind. There is no death in a war. If everyone is like you, how can we fight a war?"
Wood retorted:
"If everyone were like me, there would be no war in the world. You don't know me. My idea is not to be compassionate, but to look at the world from the perspective of a superior. If I can't even solve this little problem, what will I do in the future?
Command my army to fight against the demons."
What Wood said is right. He himself is a ruthless and harsh person. Whether it is for himself or others, his demands are always greater than his needs. If Wood did not have such a character and started killing people from the beginning of the war, Gunze would have been killed by now.
If it is destroyed, how can there be so many things.
But if you think about it from another angle, Wood used his iron-blooded tactics to kill millions of people and unified the Divine Grace Continent. In the end, only a few strong men were left in the human race. When that day comes, it will also be the end of mankind.
Wood's idea is very simple, that is, to unify the Divine Grace Continent at the cost of minimal death. No matter whether the person who dies is an enemy or one of his own, Wood does not want to see anyone die, so among Wood's acquaintances, no one does not admire him.
Whether they are soldiers or disciples, they all follow Wood wholeheartedly because he is righteous and does not do it for himself but for the world.
Seeing that the soul body did not refute, Wood said slowly:
"I remember a saying in my hometown: He who wins the hearts and minds of the people wins the world! I don't need to win the hearts and minds of the people, but I want to win the hearts and minds of the people and protect the world!"
The soul body sighed and said:
"Boy, I like your theory more and more. Forget it, let's think about how to attack Bincheng! Tell me what you think?"
Wood sighed and said:
"At the beginning, I wanted to wait for the Ice and Snow Empire legions to come before taking action, but now I don't want to do that. If the Ice and Snow Empire and the Gangze Empire are allied, and then the Ice and Snow Empire suddenly turns against each other, then after I unify Ice and Snow and Gangze, these two
This force will become a mortal enemy, which is not what I want."
The soul body thought for a while and said:
"Indeed, if this is the case, even if the two legions get together in the future, both sides will probably be suspicious. Such a team cannot fight at all because they cannot trust each other."
Wood continued:
"So I have other plans."
The soul body seems to have understood this plan. At this time, he not only admired Wood, but also admired his foresight. Such a commander can indeed bear the burden of human survival.
After Wood decided how to act, he walked out of the military tent and stood on the high platform looking at the soldiers below. At this time, everyone was looking at Wood with fiery eyes, and Wood calmed down and said loudly:
"Soldiers! The alliance between the Gangze Empire and the Garma Empire has been successful. Now the Garma Empire's army is attacking the Shadow Kingdom."
All the soldiers were a little surprised! They finally knew why the Shadow Army left. There was a commotion, and Wood stretched out his hand to make a quiet gesture. Wood then said:
"Sirs, now that our army has arrived in front of the last city in Gangze, the hatred that has been accumulated for thousands of years will finally break out. We still maintain the advantage without reinforcements, but now, can we withdraw our troops?"
"No!" shouted loudly.
Wood made a quiet gesture again and said:
"Soldiers, under the testimony of the starry sky this night, let us destroy Gangze together."
"Victory!" The whole crowd roared loudly.
"Army formation!"
All the soldiers in the military camp began to run quickly, looking for their own military formations and their positions. The chaos only lasted for a moment, and each neat square formation was already in place.
Wood yelled again:
"All officers and soldiers obey my military orders, and all legions march to defend the military tents."
The army began to move out, and the neat steps "Boom, Boom, Boom" made the ground in the military camp and Bincheng tremble. The soldiers of the Magic Empire seemed to work harder, and the sounds of everyone stepping on the ground became more and more loud, shaking
The area within a radius of 20 miles was shaking, and in all the houses in Bincheng, the cups and saucers on the tables were shaking, and the power was particularly scary.
In the temporary palace of Bincheng, everyone felt that the ground was unusual and ran out to watch. At this time, a scout came over to report, saying:
"Reporting to Your Majesty, the Magic Empire Legion has begun to attack."
All the noble ministers and even the commander-in-chief of Gangze were shocked. This magic empire is going to fight for its life!
Dick hurriedly went to His Majesty and flew to the city wall with a group of commanders, while Emperor Gangze led the noble ministers to the city wall. At this time, they wanted to prove how powerful the Magic Empire Legion was.
When Emperor Gangze ran wildly on the street, the whole street was filled with the cries of children and women. This made the already anxious Emperor Gangze even more angry. When he came to the city wall, he found that all Gangze soldiers were there.
Trembling, now that the enemy is approaching the city, our own soldiers are not fighting bravely to kill the enemy, but they are actually afraid, which makes the high-ranking Gangze Empire burst out with anger.
Without even thinking about it, Emperor Gangze pulled out the imperial sword and chopped off a soldier's head. The surrounding soldiers were looking at the slowly advancing Magic Empire Legion in the distance. The sudden death of the people around him made him scream subconsciously.
stand up:
"Enemy attack!"
A stone stirred up a thousand waves, and the Gangze soldiers who were already extremely nervous were immediately confused by the sudden sound. The Gangze Emperor stared blankly at the scene in front of him, wondering why he was suddenly in chaos.
Emperor Gangze let out a loud roar, whether it was to make people quiet or to threaten to kill them, in short, the chaotic situation became more and more chaotic, and the chaos on the city wall also slowly spread, and even some people were affected.
The trend of the entire defensive corps.
At this time, several Gangze commanders ran over and found that the source of the chaos was actually the Gangze Emperor. They had to suppress the anger in their hearts and worked hard to calm down the morale of the army.
At this time, Dick also rushed over. He saw that the soldiers no longer had any will to fight. Such an army would definitely be defeated!
Dick ignored Emperor Gangze and shouted hurriedly:
"Soldiers of Gangze, now our country has reached a critical moment of imminent destruction. You and I and everyone are Gangze's last hope. What flows in our bodies is the freshness of the Gangze Empire. Our belief is to coexist with our homeland.
Death together, in front of a powerful enemy, we may die, but are we willing to be the enemy's slaves?"
"No!" Not only the Gangze soldiers on the city wall, but also the civilians in the city also shouted, and the low momentum was relieved a lot in an instant.
Emperor Gangze finally understood the meaning of commander-in-chief. At this time, he also understood why everyone wanted to protect this young man Dick with their lives. The soldiers who were trembling just now, with Dick's encouragement, now everyone saw a trace of burning in their eyes.
To arouse fighting spirit, this is what a warrior should do.
Emperor Gangze pulled out his sword, walked slowly to Dick's side, and then shouted loudly:
"Dick, get down on your knees!"
Everyone was stunned. Isn't this Emperor Gangze crazy? What is he doing angrily with the sword?
