Heart of Empire Chapter 367: Army of demons
Dane finally got the message. [Latest chapter reading]
Firmino is a capable person. In the most difficult time, he still held the dagger in his left hand and clutched his ribs that hurt from broken ribs. He stumbled and escaped from the city of Cinderella. Through the secret method of the secret agent, the news was sent back to the White Wolf Castle, and then the mages who stayed behind in the mage tower of the White Wolf Castle passed the news to Joel through the power of magic.
Then, Dane's face was ashen.
He really didn't expect Kangli to be so decisive. Cinderella is the largest city in this barren land! Seriously, with a population of more than 100,000, I don't know how much tax and how many soldiers it can provide. In itself, it is another strong fortress, and the palace inside is not comparable to those great empires in the center of the human world in the West, but it is also second to none in the East.
Such a city can be destroyed if it is destroyed? With a population of more than a hundred thousand, will it be slaughtered if it is said to be slaughtered?
Using hundreds of thousands of human lives as sacrifices, the summoned demon
This must be the biggest news in the world of Oriento in recent times. Whether it's a good deal or not, such a big event will definitely cause the intervention of those organizations that claim to be righteous, such as the Holy See.
Of course, these things are still a little far away for the time being. The power of the Holy See in the east is somewhat weak, and their temples are rarely seen here. Although the appearance of such a large demon will inevitably attract their strong attention, but in fact, those are not what Dane cares about.
Don't even think about it, with so many demons released, Dane is 100% sure that Conley's target must be himself and Ou Ze.
According to the last news from Firmino, there are at least tens of thousands of demons appearing in Cinderella. This is just the most conservative estimate. If you are unlucky, there may be more demons pouring out of that city.
It was too late to mourn for the people who died in Cinderella, and Dane felt that he was now facing an extremely severe test.
The facilities for the siege had already been built. After getting the news, Dane immediately gathered all the troops and entered the state of preparation for the battle at any time. However, he still hesitates in his heart.
Do you want to fight Chaos City? Is there any point in beating the Lost City?
Now, in Dane's eyes, Governor Conley is no different from a red-eyed gambler. To destroy Cinderella, only a lunatic would do such a thing. But Dane didn't dare to speculate on a lunatic's thoughts. He didn't know what Conley would do next, just as he couldn't figure out where the summoned demon army would go.
But in fact, there is no need to find out, further news will come soon.
Since something so important happened to Cinderella, it is impossible to keep this news secret no matter what. Obviously, Conley didn't mean to act secretly. In fact, on December 11th, the day Dane got the news, he received further information.
Kangli's main force is heading south. He is leading an army of 5,000 people, with more than 10,000 demons, heading south. At the same time, a large number of demons did not appear in Kangli's army going south. According to intelligence, many demons scattered around after leaving the city of Cinderella, seemingly not organized at all.
Dane had a guess in his mind, but he didn't dare to confirm it, so he could only find a few spellcasters in his army.
After everyone shared the information, Joel, as a senior mage, took the lead in giving his guess: "I think Conley can't control so many demons."
"Oh?" Dane cheered up when he heard what he said: "Continue to talk about it."
"Demons are chaotic by nature. Unless there are high-level demons, or even monsters of the class of demon lords as commanders, they can condense into an army. If it is true that by sacrificing the entire population of Cinderella, a large number, There are even tens of thousands of demons. I don't believe that Conley can control such a force. Not to mention, the main force of his Shadow Warlock Corps is still in the Northern Army, even the Shadow Warlocks are there. Don't even think about controlling such a force."
"This can explain why the army that Kang Li really led to the south has only about 10,000 demons. It's not that he doesn't want to bring the other demons, but he can't bring them at all."
"Those 10,000 demons going south, don't think about it, they must be heading for our territory in the south. But this doesn't mean that those scattered monsters don't need to be vigilant, on the contrary, if I were Conley If so, even if I can't control the other demon armies, I will find a way to drive them north and toward us."
"Kangli's move is very vicious. The army in the south is going to copy our hometown. The disbandment of the army in the north must be a scam. If the main force in the north is still there, there will be more behind. How many exorcised demons are there, and we are plunged into Jedi at once."
Joel analyzed the current situation for Dane, and stopped talking. This high-level mage, who is not as strong as a mage, can do nothing more than that. He is not a very reliable military think tank.
But this is enough. Joel's analysis has made Dane understand the current situation somewhat, which is very helpful for him to make the next decision.
And he soon had an idea.
"Send a letter to Governor Oze ~IndoMTL.com~ and share with him the information we received and our analysis, and hope that he can be ready to launch a general offensive against the Northern Army at any time!"
"Send a letter to General Verina, informing her that a large army is about to go south to attack our territory, and ask her to support it for as long as possible. I authorize her to use all the forces that can be used in the southern territory! "
"Now there is no time for us to think of a perfect plan. Listen to my order. The whole army gives up attacking Lost City. Let's go east!"
When Dane speaks, no one will object to his opinion. He is a well-deserved commander in this army.
And what he meant was clearly revealed in the order. Even if he wanted to save the old lair in the south, he probably would not have the ability or chance to save it. All chances of victory were placed with him In the decisive battle of the Northern Army.
For Verina to stick to it, he himself knows that this order is difficult to achieve, and he can only hope that the woman can hold on for as long as possible. Dane, on the other hand, will use his own 5,000 troops and Governor Oze's nearly 30,000 troops to defeat and eliminate the 40,000 soldiers of the Kangli Northern Army in the shortest possible time! To be continued.
