We are in Terra and there is no book to read.

Before his father left, he pinned the Sixth Army, one of the forces controlled by the old nobles, to the demonic defense line. He also gave him a leaderless Fourth Army and an empty Fifth Army.

This gave him the opportunity to install cronies to win over people's hearts and develop his own power.Otherwise, the Ursus Civil War might have broken out long ago.

But even now, there are many crises. The new emperor asked his confidant Witte to make an estimate for himself and came to a result.

Ursus will not be able to start a war for at least the next 20 years.During this period of time, the new emperor will start an invisible fierce battle with the old nobles, slowly implement his own reforms, and gradually replace his own people. Otherwise, the right to speak will return to the hands of the old nobles, and the new emperor will also be very disappointed. Difficult to take back.

But Casimir actually came to Kazdaele at this time!

The new emperor of Ursus is full of boredom. Kazdel is not an extremely important partner to Ursus now, but he still has a certain weight!The huge reputation its civilian goods exports have brought to him will be a big blow if something goes wrong.

But to save it would reignite the war.

"White!"

After careful consideration for a while, the new emperor of Ursus made a decision, "In reply to Kazdel's request for help, I will directly transfer the active equipment of a heavy infantry division of Ursus to him. I can only do so much." Well, the rest is up to him."

.........

Ursus's letter was brought back to Kazdare by Hedley. He also brought the meaning of Cyclops, which was very simple, with only a shaking head.

Teresica took a deep breath, suppressed her emotions, put aside the idea of ​​obtaining foreign aid, and asked: "Can you now know how many people Casimir dispatched in total?"

"Your Majesty, about 15 people."

As soon as the shapeshifter said this number, the faces of everyone present suddenly changed. Kazdare now only has 5000 regular combatants available except for the naval area!

"Your Majesty, must we fight?"

"If we don't fight, we will have no home!"

Teresica didn't care who said it, he just yelled over the weak voice.However, he had the courage to shout that the Blood Demon King wanted to use it to show to the countries of Terra. The Scavenger King himself had no intention of participating in the war, but allowed his tribe to decide whether to participate in the war. The Banshee wanted to fight but didn't want to. beat.The only people who are really working are the shapeshifters, sin-absolvers responsible for intelligence, and the vast Goliath clan.

How can 5000 people fight 15 people?

Tracy Kawang turned his attention to Hedley and Manfred, but both of them shook their heads.

"Sorry, Your Majesty, I am just the leader of a mercenary group, and I have never commanded a large corps in a head-on confrontation."

"Your Majesty, I have only led one division. Fighting in a small group is more suitable for me."

Teresica stared at them with wide eyes.

I go!You don’t want me to micromanage you!

He looked around in surprise, but everyone was looking at him, looking like they were waiting for instructions. They probably really wanted him to take command personally.

"How fast is Casimir's march? How long does it take to reach Kazdaele?"

"There are probably more than 20 days left." The shapeshifter gave the answer.

Teresica looked at the map and fell into deep thought. Casimir really spent a lot of money to fight the war across a third of Terra. It would probably cost a lot to bring the supplies from the Grand Knight to the front line of Kazdaele. Less money.

"It has been fighting Ursus for so long...Production should be affected...Do you have any information on the price of food in Casimir?"

"Uh... Casimir has been holding anti-war demonstrations and strikes recently. Food seems to be a bit tight."

The shapeshifters are really good at gathering information, and they can get a little bit of information.

"Then let's start with food!"

Teresica made a decision, "There are still 1 people in Sakaz's old army, Manfred! Let them and Hedley attack in the small force method they are used to! Use their own familiar method. beat!"

"Your Majesty, how long are we going to hold back?"

"No need to stop them, Casimir's main force is sent to Kazdale!"

Teresica ordered: "Your mission is to attack their weak points, harass them like flies, and when you encounter a small group of knights or reconnaissance troops that can be bullied, eliminate them. Once their main force If they come to cause trouble for you, you should run away immediately! You cannot have a head-on conflict with them, but continue to disgust them!"

Seeing everyone's weird expressions, Teresica gave them reassurance.

"Don't put any psychological burden on me. I'm giving you an order here. Your first priority is to come back alive. The real battlefield is here!"

Chapter 49 Purgatory

"Wake up! Wake up!"

Opening his hazy sleepy eyes, the knight saw clearly that the figure in front of him was his colleague!

"What's going on! Is the enemy attacking?!"

"You must be asleep! This place is far away from Kazdaele."

The colleague patted him gently and said, "Go back to the camp and sleep. You are not on duty, so why are you staying here?"

"me……"

He suddenly remembered something and hid the thing in his hand, but it was too late. His colleagues looked at him with a teasing smile.

"Good guy, why are you hiding here and writing her a letter... Okay, I won't peek around and don't disturb you. I'll go back to camp later."

"Thank you."

He smiled gratefully, and then took out the letter paper hidden behind him. Half a page was already written on it, but this was just the tip of the iceberg compared to what he wanted to say in his heart.

He picked up the pen and wanted to continue writing, but his eyelids felt heavy and he yawned.

It's just marching today, why are you so tired?

【Whoosh——】

He lay down weakly, and the letter fell to the ground. The red traces slowly spread from one corner to the whole, making all the writing on it muddy and unclear.

One foot stepped on the inconspicuous piece of paper, crossing the corpse, and more figures rushed out of the darkness and poured into the camp like a tide.

"There are enemies!!!"

A shrill cry was heard, but to no avail.

This place is far away from Kazdare, and the knights did not wear armor to sleep. At this moment, they could only quickly grab their swords to fight, and what they had to face was Sarkaz's semi-automatic individual crossbow.

The scene turned into a one-sided massacre. Even if there were a few well-equipped night guards, they would not have much effect at this time.

A moment later, in the temporary camp of the supply transport team, fire shot into the sky. The impact beast with its limbs cut off lay on the ground neighing, and the attackers returned to the dark desert.

.........

"Your Majesty, the Siphon Drone is a very excellent piece of equipment. It can make the enemy lower their guard without even realizing it!"

Manfred came to Teresica excitedly with the communication content sent back by the first batch of attacking troops.

"I see."

Teresica nodded. In front of him were two huge transport ships. Although they were small and high-speed, they could still hold a lot of people.

In the open space aside, a large number of Sakaz soldiers were gathering and taking stock. They were the second batch of troops about to set off.The transport ship donated by Iberia will send them to the vicinity of Casimir's army, then drop them and let them fight on their own, and then return to Kazdaele to prepare to transport the next batch of troops.

Each batch of troops has communication personnel, and through the relay points set up along the way, information can be transmitted back to Kazdaele in a timely manner.The subsequent troops will summarize the information sent back and adjust their equipment and personnel.

In addition to praising the Siphonator drone, the information sent back this time also mentioned one point in particular.Casimir's knight armor is very well equipped, but using a blade is not very effective and is difficult to repair in the desert. It is recommended to use a war hammer.

Therefore, in addition to their original equipment, the troops currently boarding the ship also carry an additional batch of war hammers.

Suddenly, the surroundings became noisy, and Teresica noticed that many soldiers were looking towards her, and they were all saying hello to her.

The Sakaz troops, which retained their original combat mode, were not as rigorous in style as the newly formed troops. Many of them and their cousins ​​fought through the Kazdaele Civil War from foreign wars.

Seeing so many people calling to her, Teresica wanted to say something in response, but he was not a talkative person.After brewing for a long time, he finally shouted dryly.

"Come back alive!"

Many people present responded loudly, but Teresica couldn't hear clearly because there were too many people and the wind was very loud. However, listening to their high-pitched shouts, they seemed to like this sentence quite a lot.

On the second night of their departure, they were attacked by Sakaz. Casimir's knights were not fools. They quickly adjusted their deployment, expanded the size of the logistics unit, adjusted the rhythm of marching and rest, and announced The entire army is required to march in a combat state.

But in this case, it may take 30 days to reach Kazdaele.

Moreover, this passive response method did not cause much trouble to Sakaz. Every Sakaz force fighting on its own in the desert was equipped with communication tools so that they could cooperate with each other.

Since Casimir expanded the logistics team, they also joined forces with several forces to act together.The war knights have been in war for a long time, but Sarkaz is not a new recruit. Their experience in sneak attacks is as skillful as the Casimir knights in commanding assault beasts of burden.

They applied for the support of magicians, and during the day they quietly used siphoners to keep track of them, and they continued to harass and create small-scale weapon battles, causing Casimir's knights to make wrong assessments of the surrounding Sakaz troops.

Then in the second half of the night when they were asleep, the knights who had been secretly consumed by the Siphoner drone for more than ten hours, no matter how strong they were, had become drowsy. At this time, they finally let down their vigilance.

But at this moment, a large number of magic attacks suddenly fell in Casimir's camp. The knights who rushed to fight looked at the Sakaz soldiers rushing toward them in horror.

Not only did they charge, but behind them, the Sakaz magicians were constantly attacking across the board. These charging Sakaz stepped on the smoke and dust of the spell explosions and rushed all the way into the camp, and behind them, the Sakaz shooters He also did not hesitate to cross over and shoot his comrades.

This desperate fighting style is completely beyond the imagination of the knights. Ursus's mine penitentiary soldiers are not so crazy!

In the desert shrouded in darkness, a transport brigade guarded by a thousand combatants was decommissioned. When Casimir's main force arrived, the supplies they transported had been burned by Sakaz, and the food, medicine, arrows... had all been destroyed. For coke.And this time, Sakaz did not kill them all with cruelty. They were kind and left many people alive in the camp.

In the light of the sky, the commander who led the rescue team stared blankly at the scene in front of him. In front of him was a medical officer who was almost crazy with fright, because beside the medical officer, there were neat rows of people. There were more than a hundred fighting knights, all of whom had one arm and one foot chopped off, and lay feebly on the ground groaning.

Fire, blood, severed limbs, and groans all intertwined to create a scene of hell in front of Knight Casimir.

Chapter 50

In the transport ship of the Casimir Expeditionary Force, a routine meeting was being held. All the high-level expedition knights in the team were already in place, but the atmosphere at the scene was terrifyingly stiff.

Recently, they have been hit repeatedly and their material losses have been very serious. They have taken various countermeasures, but they have not even caught any trace of the enemy. They only know that it is the Sakaz people who are attacking.

"These disgusting demons! Don't you dare to fight us head-on? They are running around like thieves!"

A knight on the expedition was irritated in depression, and his colleagues around him also looked bad. The supplies for this expedition were all purchased and transported with their own money. They haven't arrived at the starting point of the battle yet. A large number of them evaporated out of thin air!

It's all money!

"Captain Tok is here!"

The attendant's shout made everyone adjust their sitting postures and expressions. They watched an old man in armor walk in. All the knights stood up and saluted.

"What? Fighting with the Ursus Legion has made your thinking rigid?"

The old man keenly noticed the unnatural look on everyone's faces. He calmly sat down in his seat and motioned for the waiter to come in. He was holding plates of cut fruits in his hands.

"It was just delivered. Please try it. It's very fresh. The fragrance of the fruit can make you calm down."

He unhurriedly picked up a piece of fruit pulp with his fork and tasted it carefully. The people around him could only eat with him, but there was a hint of haste in his movements.

"If materials are lost, they are lost. Even if we lose so many things, we can still eat fresh fruits in this desert. Can those Sakaz be used?"

The old man laughed as he spoke, "We are strong. Why do we get angry when we are bitten by an ant?"

"But Lord Tok, they are harassing us like this, which has done a lot of damage to our morale, and we have to send extra manpower to take care of the wounded soldiers."

A fighting knight said: "We must find a way to change the status quo, otherwise we will be really frustrated!"

"Our supply line is too long. No matter how we strengthen it, it will be nothing more than a leaky window screen that can't stop Sakaz's targeted attacks."

The old man's words shocked the knights, but he immediately said: "So I have sent people to purchase supplies from Letania instead. This way our supply line will be greatly shortened, and the knights can be dispatched for careful protection. "

The old man's smile always hung on his face. Under his influence, all the knights present laughed slowly, and the atmosphere suddenly became the same as when they first set off.

"We have the numbers, the strength, and the speed that we are proud of, but we have fallen into Sakaz's combat rhythm, which makes these advantages unable to be used. We should drag Sakaz into the range we are accustomed to. "

The old man looked at everyone, stood up and said: "You haven't run against beasts of burden for a long time. Let them get familiar with this desert first. Pull [-] beast control knights out and use speed to kill those running around in the desert. Sakaz, drive them all together. I don’t care about the specifics. Just do it yourself and let the boys vent their anger."

"As ordered!"

The war knights responded in unison.

.........

"Your Majesty, the Casimir people have responded."

"Well, I see."

Teresica read the report sent by the leader of the Transformers. Their move to change the supply point was really good, and the supply line was shortened by more than half!Moreover, Casimir's beast-controlling knights now guard the entire transportation line tightly. They no longer camp and rest on the road, and simply change to another team to continue transportation.

"In addition to what you see, we also have a shapeshifter who disguised himself as a medical officer and sneaked into Casimir's team. He reported that many knights have received field trauma kits recently, and the beasts of burden have also been attacked uniformly. Condition check.”

"Oh?" Teresica glanced at the location of Casimir's troops on the map and pondered for a while, "They want to wipe them out, right?"

This is indeed troublesome. It is difficult for Sarkaz to threaten Casimir's supply line for the time being, and it is okay for the guerrilla troops to conduct sneak attacks in the desert, but it is basically impossible to withstand the impact of the cavalry group.

Should we order the troops to withdraw to Kazdaele, or should they continue to disperse in the desert and wait for opportunities to continue sneak attacks?

If you don't retreat, you will face a clearing by the cavalry, but if you retreat, Casimir will drive straight in without worry, and retreating in the desert is basically retreating to Kazdaele. How can two legs outrun four legs? It is easy to catch up!

"We can only try one game."

Teresica said with difficulty, [-] young men may not be much to Casimir, but [-] combat-ready soldiers are an extremely important resource for Sakaz.
