Mystery: Undead don't die from passing fire

Chapter 370 Conspiracy!There must be a conspiracy!

Backlund, West Borough, Hall's luxurious villa.

When Audrey returned, Earl Hall was still talking with Hibbert in the study, his mother was counting the family's assets and hoarded supplies, and the servants were handling their affairs in an orderly manner.

When Audrey returned to the room, the golden retriever Susie was sitting in front of the door wagging her tail. No one noticed that she had been away for a while.

No one knew that just now, she witnessed the death of two demigods with her own eyes, and even hunted one of them herself.This made Audrey feel a little happy, because in this way, the war pressure on Loen's side would be greatly reduced, and the casualties would also be reduced.
-
Highshire, Conston Front.

"What the hell is going on here?"

On the Loen position, Alfred, the commander, stared at the endless Feysac fleet on the distant sea, and couldn't help frowning slightly.

Of course, he has already noticed the strangeness of Feysac's conquest fleet.

From just now, the conquest fleet suddenly stopped bombing the Loen position. This undoubtedly caused heavy losses to the Fusac landing troops who lost artillery support. Back to the beach.

And the most terrible thing is that not only did the conquest fleet stop the bombardment, but even the subsequent landing troops that were supposed to be sent to the beach did not make any movement.

Alfred's first thought was that something might have gone wrong with Feysac's conquest fleet. Multiple demigods had assassinated the commander of the conquest fleet, Franz Einhorn. This was undoubtedly Loen's counterattack. Great opportunity!
But the second thought immediately made Alfred suppress this impulse. He did not rashly order the troops under his command to change their actions, but continued the previous deployment, gradually nibbling away the Feysac landing troops who were besieged on the beach. .

Because he was worried that this matter might be a trap.

After all, Franz Einhorn is a Sequence 3 'War Bishop'!With the blessing of the entire conquest fleet, how could it be so easy to be killed unless an angel came in person?
And from the change just now to the present, less than 2 minutes have passed before and after.No matter how strong the opponent is, Franz, the "bishop of war", will not be able to hold on for 2 minutes, right?
It was also in this aspect of thinking that Alfred worried that this might be a trick of the Feysacs, perhaps just trying to lure them into an active attack, step into the trap set by Feysac, and then wipe them all out.

That's why he chose to stand still and stabilize the front - he would rather do nothing than make mistakes.

This is actually not in line with Alfred's character. The reason why he was promoted to colonel at a young age was because he dared to fight and fight hard when he was serving in East Balam, and he would rather make mistakes than do nothing.

But the longer he was in contact with this war and the more troops he commanded, the more cautious he became.

Because the pressure he bears is too great!
He needs to be responsible for the lives of hundreds of thousands of mortal soldiers under his command, he needs to be responsible for Constant behind him, and he needs to be responsible for his family and friends in Backlund who are under his protection!
So he will never advance aggressively, as long as he holds his position, he will win!
Alfred originally thought so, until he found that the frequency of battles between those demigods became less and less, until those demigods belonging to Fusac's side suddenly left the battlefield without warning!

These Fusac demigods left tens of thousands of Fusac landing troops on the beach and escaped alone!

The demigod Lu Enfang who had lost his opponent also felt baffled, but most of them subconsciously thought that this might be a Yopu trap, so they didn't rush after him, but out of caution, they returned to the command post immediately to discuss countermeasures.

Alfred looked at the old man who returned to the command post first, and asked in a deep voice:

"Your Excellency, Song of God, do you have any clue about the changes of the Feysacs?"

Wearing a black robe embroidered with a storm symbol, wearing a black soft hat, the old man with extremely serious silver eyes frowned and said:
"There seems to be something wrong with Feysac's conquest fleet, but I suspect that this may be a trap by the Feysacs."

Alfred nodded silently, it was the same as his guess.

Emperor Roselle, who single-handedly established the Republic of Intis, once published a comment on the Feysacs:
Fusac's soldiers are fierce and cunning, and Fusac's generals are cunning and fierce.

Alfred actually did not agree with many words and deeds of Emperor Roselle.

But only this sentence, Alfred deeply agrees.

As a country rich in 'hunters' and 'warrior' extraordinary people, the people of this country have a barbaric atmosphere in their bones.On the one hand, they consider themselves descendants of giants, and they are not ashamed of barbarism, but proud of it.

On the other hand, many hunters among them used the name of their sequence potions to the extreme—these seemingly barbaric warriors are not brainless, but are full of various schemers.

Especially on the battlefield, the Feysacs like to use conspiracies to lure Loen's side into the trap.In this kind of matter, the Loen people have enough say, because they have enough painful lessons.

So when faced with the obvious changes on Feysac's side, Alfred was still extremely vigilant, and he also suffered from this aspect.

The singer of God, Ace Snake, also felt the same way, so he made the same evaluation as him.

Soon, the demigods of the Church of Evernight and the royal family returned to the command post one after another.

The four demigods gathered together to discuss how to deal with this possible conspiracy.

In the end, their conclusions were surprisingly consistent:
do nothing!

As long as the Feysacs' conquest fleet remains offshore, they will do nothing.

Because if something really happens to the conquest fleet, even if the commander Franz Einhorn is dead, at least the remaining sailors and adjutants will command the rest of the warships to retreat instead of docking enough as they are now. Shelled to the range of the Loen position.

So, this must be a conspiracy!
The Feysacs are tricking them into going to the conquest fleet, tricking them into investigating the situation of the flagship Admiral Norton, and there must be traps on it that can trap them demigods.

So, they don't need to do anything.

Since the Feysacs used the tens of thousands of landing troops as bait, they would eat this part of the bait first.

As for biting the hook?That is impossible!

If the Intersea Fleet commanded by Admiral Amyrius is here, they might be able to try it out.But now Admiral Amyrius' Intersea Fleet is entangled by Feysac's Conquest Fleet Second Squadron, and it will be difficult to support them before dawn.

And since he didn't even have the support of the navy, Alfred didn't even have the idea of ​​testing.Because they don't have a navy, it is difficult to prevent Feysac's conquest fleet from fleeing, and even a temptation will only waste the soldiers' lives in vain.

Loen's side, who determined the central idea, quickly launched a large-scale siege on Feysac's landing force, and at the same time lost the support of the conquest fleet and demigods, the Feysac landing force was like ants without a backbone. They were wiped out by Loen's side within an hour.

Under the night, the soldiers of Loen's side began to clean up the battlefield and repair the destroyed fortifications.

It was obviously a war, but the second half of the night was surprisingly quiet, only the sound of Loen's coastal defense artillery occasionally pouring artillery fire at the conquest fleet.

The conquest fleet still stayed in the offshore, neither counterattack nor retreat.

Even though many ships were destroyed by the artillery of the coastal defense artillery, they still did not make any movement.This situation continued until dawn, until the intersea fleet commanded by Admiral Amyrius arrived at the battlefield, cutting off the retreat of the conquest fleet!

And even in the face of being attacked from both sides, Fusac's conquest fleet still floated quietly on the sea, motionless.

Then, Loen's side discovered an astonishing fact——

Conquering fleets don't move because they don't want to, but because they can't.

In the entire fleet, there are hundreds of warships without a single living person!Hundreds of thousands of sailors there had already died last night, in that 2-minute accident!
When Alfred confirmed all this with his own eyes, his expression was still a little stunned, but he soon breathed a sigh of relief.

The change last night was not a trap, and the Feysacs really suffered huge losses.

But he doesn't regret his decision.

Because even if he ordered a counterattack at that time, the ending would not be too different from now.
-
In the early morning, inside the luxurious villa of the Hall family.

Audrey was eating an exquisite breakfast with her parents and brother, but at this moment, a servant broke in suddenly and handed a folded telegram to Earl Hall.

Earl Hall's expression changed slightly when he saw the telegram written on special letter paper.

That stationery is specially used to write military information, and this is a telegram from the front line.However, given the current corrupt situation on the front line of the Loen Kingdom, it is not necessary to know that this is definitely not good news.

He didn't want to spoil his mood for breakfast, and with the thought of exercising Hibbert, he said slowly:
"Give it to Hibbert."

The servant immediately passed the telegram to Hibbert who was beside him, and Hibbert also recognized the style of the letter paper, and opened it with a serious expression.

But soon, Hibbert's expression changed from serious to astonished and unbelievable!
Earl Hall's heart sank when he saw his expression, because he had already expected that the information in the telegram would not be very good.

However, in the next second, Hibbert suddenly showed uncontrollable joy and excitement on his face, and said in an excited tone:

"Father, you have to see this!"

"Ok?"

Earl Hall was taken aback, took the telegram and glanced at it, and saw the contents inside.Different from the failure he expected, the information on the telegram is a great victory for Loen's side!

Fusac's Sunya Sea Fleet appeared near Bayam, the capital of the Rorsted Islands last night, and was spotted by the patrolling armored fleet. They chased them all the way to the vicinity of Nas, causing heavy losses to the Sunia Sea Fleet. Even its commander Officer Yegor Einhorn was also missing.

In the direction of Jianhai, Loen's side also repelled Fusac's attack, annihilating hundreds of thousands of enemies, including half of Fusac's conquest fleet!Earl Hall realized the importance of this battle almost immediately-the casualties of the army are not important, what matters is the half of the conquest fleet!

Feysac, who has lost half of his conquest fleet, will find it difficult to launch another large-scale offensive in the direction of the sea.Because the Intersea Fleet of the Loen Kingdom can completely suppress the conquest fleet, and even attack the homeland of the Feysac Empire in reverse!
"Good good!"

Earl Hall stroked his beautiful mustache, and an uncontrollable expression of excitement appeared on his face.

It was the only good news he had heard since the month of war.

Although this cannot reverse the situation of the battle, it can at least restore the decline and allow Loen's side to last longer.And as long as they can last longer, even if they are doomed to defeat in the future and have to surrender to Feysac or Intis, they will be able to gain more benefits from it.

Seeing that her father was in a good mood, Audrey turned her green eyes slightly and asked curiously:
"Dad, is there any good news?"

"It's good news."

Earl Hall handed the telegram to Audrey and said with a smile:

"Your brother, Alfred made great contributions. Not only did he repel the attack of the Feysacs, he even cooperated with Admiral Amyrius to wipe out the invading conquest fleet, which will buy us a rare buffer time. Even the balance of this war will start to tilt from now on."

Although he said so, Earl Hall actually did not give much hope.

After all, Feysac's navy suffered heavy losses, but its army lost only tens of thousands of people, which is nothing compared to the total of millions.The loss of the navy only slowed down their offensive in the direction of Jianhai and Soniahai.

But in the defense line of the Amanda Mountains in the north of Winter County, Feysac's attack is still fierce, not to mention the two enemies Intis and Fenepot are watching.Unless they wiped out the main force of the Feysac Empire in one fell swoop and took the opportunity to counterattack its homeland, it would be very difficult for them to win the war.

Audrey looked carefully at the contents of the telegram, and found that the help of the 'unknown demigod' was hidden in these two battles, as if everything was the effort of the Loen people themselves.

Audrey was not surprised by the contents of the telegram. After all, if the truth was stated, it would appear that Ruen was just picking up the bargain, which could not achieve the content of boosting morale.The Loen Kingdom, which has been suppressed for a long time, also needs a big victory to inspire the people.

"It's a good thing."

Audrey smiled happily from the bottom of her heart, because at least this would save some people from the Loen Kingdom from dying.

Regarding the 10,000+ Feysacs who died, although Audrey has mixed feelings, she will not regret it.

This is war, and one side has to pay the sacrifice.

She doesn't want her family and friends, or her country to give hope, so she can only let the enemy sacrifice.What's more, Feysac was originally an intruder, and their death is better than the death of innocent people.
