? Eboden, Jewel River, Empire Fortress.

Evening.

A **** encounter half an hour ago was just ended with the withdrawal of the Azores' raid.

The exhausted and scarred Elmans soldiers and soldiers of the Imperial Army had no intention of pursuing it, and they were too lazy to raise their crossbows and shoot a few arrows at the escaped enemy.

They just cleaned the messy battlefield in silence, digging up the corpses of their robe, digging a big pit in a softer place beside the river, and burying it in place.

Duke Elmans in the dark blue cloak rode a sturdy war horse, personally holding an iron crown banner standing in the center of the battlefield, where all the soldiers could see, stood tall and stood motionlessly. In the direction of the enemy's withdrawal.

Only those who are closer can see a trace of fatigue in his silver-gray pupils.

Once again, let the enemy evacuate safely.

Again, a meaningless victory.

With his teeth clenched tightly, the face of Tieqing, Grand Duke Elmand, contained anger.

In the face of the Azore Elf warriors, the legionnaires in heavy armor forming a phalanx can only resist head-on, but it is difficult to effectively resist; while the dual-armed weapons, the light armored Ellerant soldiers are difficult to One advantage in the battle.

Even if a small-scale battle is won, it can only be a terrible victory. When a small number of troops, or fortifications that have no fortifications, encounter raids, it is almost impossible for the whole army to wipe out one end.

This is an unprecedented enemy.

No longer a brainless monster, no longer a refugee by the trend of cultists, no longer a knight in heavy armor and a conscript who wields a long contradiction card ... but a superb combat skill, wielding a sharp long knife, with a tacit understanding warrior.

Not one or two, not tens or hundreds, but hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands!

Such an opponent, who has never faced battles, makes it difficult for Elleman Duke Eli Manz, who has received traditional empire education, to accept it; he is clearly the one who occupies the geographical, military and material advantages, but is passive.

Obviously, His Majesty Emperor Connold of the Sky Dome Palace was also very clear about his "insufficient ability", so the task left to him was to "hold" instead of "offensive", and even explicitly demanded that he should not be trapped in Eboden. The city's elf army launched any offensive.

Julie Wiltz didn't feel humiliated by being "underestimated". What really hurt him was the feeling of "relaxation" in his heart.

Unless there are miracles, you can't win on your own ... Yuli Wiltz knows this.

Therefore, he established an army barracks on the important ferry of the Jewel River, and set up arrow towers and fortresses on all the main roads of the border of Ebden, approaching the city of Ebden by stepping forward, and locking up the enemy ’s activity space little by little. .

Of course, the last sentence is nonsense, because the enemy ’s space of activity is not outside the city of Ebden—as long as the port of Ebden is not recaptured for one day, the initiative of this war has always been in the hands of the elves.

Therefore, the real "mission" of Grand Duke Elmand is actually to protect the channel of the Jewel River and ensure that the elf's soldiers will not touch the imperial capital; at the same time, make full preparations for the decisive battle in the coming spring.

The decisive battle in the next spring ...

You ... can you really stick to that time?

"Are you complaining about yourself?"

Suddenly, the voice came to let Julie Wiltz look back, and Severin de Salion who had come with him already appeared behind him.

"My Excellency Secretary of the Army, I ..."

"No, don't explain, I understand." Severin de Salion waved his hand, with a nostalgic smile on his lips: "I have worked with your father and uncles, this face has been seen countless times . "

"You Ermeng people, when you encounter problems, you will complain and blame yourself. I think it is caused by your lack of ability-I really don't know what to say about your humility or arrogance."

Yuli Wiltz stunned slightly, bowing his head in thought, looking at the traces left on the battlefield.

Severin de Salion, who did n’t know what he was thinking, shook his head and patted him on the shoulder with half consolation: "Do n’t think about it, we are not the protagonists of this battle-we can block the battlefield and ensure that the enemy is in Before the end of winter, it will not threaten the rivers of the Imperial City and the Jewel River, and it is already a task. "

"Leave the rest to our invincible Emperor Connold, ha!"

"Block the battlefield and guard the river." Yuli Wiltz whispered slowly, his brow furrowed staring at the direction of the enemy's retreat: "Whether we repelled the enemy's temptation and raid army, blocked the battlefield And guarded the river ... "

"Or our enemies exhausted their means and hope we think so?"

Ok?

Wen Yan's military secretary looked tight: "What do you mean?"

"It's nothing, just ..." Duke Elmand had a complicated look, and his silver-grey pupils never left the direction of Ebden:

"Just suddenly felt that this possibility exists ..."

…………………………

"Poof—!"

The spear pierced the crest of the ogre, and was pulled out by Liya upside down; the plasma spewing out from the wailing wailing stained half of the female elf, and the world in front of him was temporarily dyed red .

While the ogre was falling down, the three figures had torn apart the curtain of the snow and threw the deep forest castle in the distance and attacked her.

These stupid monsters have realized that if they don't get rid of this "little point" as soon as possible, they will be killed one by one.

"boom--!"

With a heavy roar, the dying ogres were photographed as meat sauce by their compatriots, and the smelly liquid spewed like a burst of slurry.

Without stopping for a moment, the female elf who jumped into the air threw the spear violently by turning and falling inertia.

The dark shadow torn through the cold wind and penetrated the ogre's eyes in the howling.

The falling female elf slammed on the ogre's face door, pulled out a spear, and rushed to the third monster without hesitation.

Like an elf in the snow, dancing against the wind in the cold wind.

"Snapped!"

A loud noise, mixed with roar, burst in Liya's ear.

The spear in his hand shattered unexpectedly when he touched the ogre claws, leaving only the half-barrel in his hand.

Throwing away the gun, the female elf squeezing her mouth tightly took two short guns one and a half feet from behind.

"clang--!"

Two short spears of one and a half feet merge into one in the air.

A gift from a small wizard, Liya never left her body.

Poof!

In the sound of flesh and tear, the ogre's claws flicked towards the female elf were penetrated by a single shot; the tip of the gun was horizontal and then torn.

The wailing ogres immediately fell to the ground.

The female elf with her mouth closed tightly, like a falcon hunting a prey, swiftly shuttled through the snow and snow, every time she wielded a spear, every time she aimed at a target, it was as natural as a cloud.

Every attack is a blow to the enemy, and it will never drag the mud.

"Ah ah ah ah ah--!!!!"

The female elf roared, holding a spear in both hands and penetrated the ogre's chest, but the huge body staggered under the effect of severe pain and impact, and fell back.

"boom----!"

The ogres fell to the ground.

The female elf who lost the borrowing point steadily landed, holding the spear and standing on the battlefield full of ogres.

The white snow was soaked with a thick, odorous liquid, and the hot "steam" rose up, covering the panting female elf, whose thin body was a little excessive.

Behind her, the battle outside the deep forest wall was also over; under the layers of elven war dancers, the ordered ogres had not yet had time to approach the wall, but they were shot into a sieve by ballistas and arrow rain. One by one fell in the snow outside the city walls.

The female elf gently raised her eyes and looked toward the opposite side of the battlefield. She could already see the triangle flag of the Azores and the dense figure.

In the cold wind, they stood across from each other, watching the ogres driven by them die under the deep forest castle, and there was no intention to intervene or intervene from beginning to end.

An elf warrior standing with a knife stood directly in front of the army, with cold eyes, looking at her with some provocation.

"come--!"

The female elf holding the spear standing in the middle of the battlefield roared in the direction of the elf:

"Azore blood relatives, don't you want war, come--!"

"Don't you still want to take more land, come--!"

"Don't you still want to kill more people, come--"

"I give it to you, all to you!"

"Just step over my body!"

The blood-stained spear was raised, pointing straight to the opposite side, and the female elf shouted out from the clenched teeth:

"bring it on!"

"I'm here!"

"Come and kill me!"

The heartbreaking roar echoed in the cold wind.

But the army of Azore elves on the opposite side did not react.

They were standing there motionless like sculptures in ice and snow, letting the female elves "yaowuyangweiwei" there.

The headed elf warrior glanced coldly at the female elf, sneering contemptuously; put away the long knife in his hand and waved his hand behind him.

The ordered army of Azore elves finally moved; but instead of attacking, they slowly withdrew their camps back.

An anger that was "underestimated" flooded the female elf's heart.

But after so many things, she was again entrusted with the task of guarding her homeland, and she no longer lost her temper as she used to; she watched the enemy's leaving coldly, holding the lance tightly.

Why, why not attack?

After all the hard work driving the ogres to attack the city, do you just want to see if these monsters can break through the defense of the deep forest?

Impossible, they clearly have planned this war for a long time, it is impossible to do such stupid things;

Or……

…………………………

"Tentative?"

The Secretary of the Military frowned in confusion, looking at Grand Duke Ellerman: "You mean the enemy, but also testing us?"

"Besides that, there is no second explanation." Yuli Wiltz nodded slightly: "The Ellerant soldiers who participated in the battle of Ebden told me that the enemy has no immediate plan to attack the city, but there are The purpose is to organize and defend the frontal battles of the army; on the one hand, such a battle may kill the army's combat effectiveness, on the other hand ... "

"Also know and understand our fighting style best." The Secretary of the Military's expression became serious.

"Whether it is the Azores or us, this is the first time we have confronted a completely strange enemy-understanding the other party's tactics, fighting methods, each other and their advantages and disadvantages is the most important intelligence for a commander.

So not only the empire, but even the elves are using the opportunity to test the empire.

Grand Duke Elmans said in a deep voice: "The other party knows very well that they cannot get any support before the end of the winter; instead of sneaking into the emperor, a city that can never be kept even if it is beaten; it is better to use the opportunity of confronting us throughout the winter , As much as possible to understand the fighting style of the empire. "

"This information is very important, we have to ..."

The Secretary of Military Affairs just wanted to say, "We must report to His Majesty the Emperor immediately," but then I thought about it, how could Connold not expect such a result?

Since the two sides are in a long-term confrontation, it is almost inevitable to test each other-the tactics, characteristics and advantages and disadvantages of the empire will be exposed to the enemy one by one.

"Sounds scary, but in fact, if you think about it, you can understand that this is something that can't be done." The responding military secretary chuckled and patted Julie Wiltz's shoulder:

"Since it's impossible, why do you think so much?"

"No, the other party does not just want to know us-they want, not just this!" Grand Duke Ellerman frowned, his expression growing nervous:

"Time and time temptations, and raids again and again, forcing us to stop and confront them, this is simply ... It is like desperately wanting us to think that they will be like us, and when the next spring comes, we will use another one. Bloody battle to decide the victory of both sides! "

"Is this wrong?"

"Of course this is wrong! If the enemy's troops are scarce, then of course they want quick battles, but their current situation is not at all like planning to fight, but more like preparing to take our land step by step and move the clan to the territory of the empire. ! "

"Actually, ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ I have a more worried guess ..." Yuli Wiltz looked anxiously at the military minister who had not yet understood:

"If the enemy is not planning a decisive battle with us in Ebden, but wants to turn this place into their colony and base camp, advancing step by step? If capturing the port of Ebden is only their blind eye, where is the real offensive goal? "

"This ... the empire's coastline is very long, but it is only Eboden that can supply ships to dock!" Severin de Salion is very incomprehensible: "If they are not in Eboden, where can they go?" Let their fleet moor? "

"This is also what I want to know ... what is their real goal, is it really just to declare war and make the empire bow down?" Grand Duke Elmand shook his head and looked involuntarily towards the south:

"Maybe the Duke Byrne who confronted the Azores head-to-head will know a little ... what is he doing now?"
