Carry the Ring of Elden with you

"It's okay, you can continue to rest. Just keep an eye on this thing for me." Roland squatted down and covered a relatively complete stone slab with his hand. When he moved his hand away, a beating golden blessing teleportation point appeared on the floor. superior.

Then the golden blessing teleportation point used large swaths of golden light to float above Thunder City like a hot air balloon, gradually forming the shadow of the golden tree.

Akil snorted to show that he understood. After Roland left the place, he lay forward and his slender dragon tail came across to completely cover the blessing transmission point.

The reason why Roland was able to set up the blessing teleportation point was because just now the system suddenly reminded him that Thunder City had been completely occupied. Roland speculated that it was because all the soldiers who resisted him in the city had been eliminated.

It's a pity that there is no system reward this time, but since the golden tree's shadow appeared, it began to absorb the wandering souls on the battlefield and turn them into ether. The ether that Roland now stores can immediately summon a real Kalia knight to serve him. .

Chapter 1 Sixty: Just think it’s for me and use blitzkrieg against the Austrian Law Council!

Roland led Melina and Blaze, and when they were about to arrive at the mine under the leadership of the knight, they found a group of cleanly dressed people blocking the entrance of the mine. The soldiers from Callia seemed to be negotiating something.

"Well, what happened over there?" Blaze asked.

The knight leading the way also shook his head in confusion, not knowing why his colleagues were blocked there.

Roland observed those carefully and sighed slightly.

Melina seemed to know what Roland was thinking, and said with a smile: "It seems that you have met some people who don't know whether to live or die again."

Roland nodded, and then led the others to stride over. He heard the lines he expected before they even got close.

"This mine is our private property and does not belong to the Offa Council! You have no right to enter our private territory!" A fat middle-aged man dressed as a gentleman roared at the soldiers of the Kaliya royal family. road.

It was obvious that he seemed to be a bit jealous. If it weren't for a group of people like him beside him, he would have run away long ago.

But the huge value of the Thunder City mine prevented him from just leaving, and the failure of the Kaliya soldiers to take action immediately gave this group of people the courage to dare not attack them.

"Tie them all up and take them away." Roland's voice came from behind.

Before these ignorant mine owners could react, the Kaliya soldiers who had been staying quietly in place without making any movement immediately showed a ferocious smile, took out a finger-thick hemp rope from nowhere and tied these with lightning speed. The mine owner tied them all up and thoughtfully stuffed rags into their mouths.

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooootoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo...

But their protests had no effect, and the long swords placed around their necks by the Carian soldiers calmed them down.Before, the soldiers tolerated this group of mine owners blocking their way because they were not soldiers in the army and did not carry weapons. Now Roland directly ordered the soldiers who had not wanted to tolerate it to seize the opportunity to arrest them all.

Roland looked at the mine owners who were passing by and looked at him with disapproval. He recognized the clothes one of the mine owners was wearing, and then raised his hand to signal the soldiers to stop.

He walked up to the mine owner in person, it was the slightly fat gentleman.Roland signaled the soldiers to loosen him, straightened his collar, looked at the badge on his cuffs and asked with a smile, "Are you from the Lulan Chamber of Commerce? What's your name?"

Seeing Roland being so polite, the slightly fat gentleman asked if he was a member of the Lulan Chamber of Commerce. He just assumed that the other party was afraid of him because of the name of the Lulan Chamber of Commerce.

So the slightly fat gentleman felt confident and said with a somewhat arrogant tone: "Hmph, you also know that I am a member of the Lulan Chamber of Commerce and you dare to do this to me? I am Pali, a senior member of the Lulan Chamber of Commerce in Thunder City. I am from Thunder City. The mines are the private property of the Lulan Chamber of Commerce. I don’t care what country you are from, you should not touch anything belonging to the Lulan Chamber of Commerce."

After hearing what the fat gentleman said, the other mine owners stared at him angrily and made angry whining sounds.

Obviously only two of these mines belonged to the Lulan Chamber of Commerce, but the fat man suddenly attributed the ownership of these mines to the Lulan Chamber of Commerce.

What the middle-aged man named Pari didn't notice was that when he admitted that he was a member of the Lulan Chamber of Commerce, Melina and others behind Roland looked at him with the eyes of a dead person.

"Oh, that's right." Roland pretended to understand, looked at the group of tied mine owners and asked, "Are there any members of the Lulan Chamber of Commerce among them?"

Pari looked back. One of the businessmen with dark circles under his eyes and a high nose bridge became excited. He twisted his body and whined crazily towards Pari.

"Well, he can be considered half a member of the Lulan Chamber of Commerce." Parry pointed at the businessman and said.

Roland's eyes signaled the Calian soldiers to release the businessman and let him stand with Pari.

Parry looked at the dark-rimmed businessman with a proud look, and just as he was about to say something to Roland, he heard Roland say: "Kill these two people."

What?Before Pari could react, he felt a chill on his neck, and then sharp pain poured into the top of his head, and his vision began to spin.During this process, he also saw the scene where the businessman with dark circles cried bitterly and knelt down to beg for mercy, but was killed with a sword.

"Crack." Two heads covered in blood fell to the ground, covered in dust.

The mine owners who were still dissatisfied instantly became quiet, and even took a few steps back neatly, for fear of being splashed with blood.

"Are there any people from the Lulan Chamber of Commerce among you?" Roland asked calmly, and the group of mine owners shook their heads.

Roland nodded: "Very good, now follow the soldiers obediently and tell them the details of your mine, including the annual output, how many people work in the mine, etc. Do you understand? ?”

The mine owners nodded in unison again.

"Take them down." Roland waved his hand.

This time, the mine owners took the initiative and quickly left the place without being forced by the Kaliya soldiers.

"Tsk, I didn't expect that the Lulan Chamber of Commerce would also reach out to the Thunder City of the Austrian Law Council." Roland said with an unkind look at the two headless corpses on the ground that were still bleeding.

Blaze walked over, ignored the two corpses on the ground and asked, "What are we going to do next, Roland?"

Roland looked up at the projection of the golden tree shining with golden light in the sky, and said: "Check the granary reserves in the city. Blazer, you people from Kallia are taking a rest in Thunder City for the time being, but Selvais, I I want to borrow it."

Blaze was stunned, nodded, and then said: "It's okay to borrow Servis, but Roland, do you plan to continue the attack?"

Roland said affirmatively: "Well, I found that every time you capture a city, you can expand the influence of the golden tree and set up blessing transmission points. Can you think of what this means, Blaze?"

Unexpectedly, Blaze shook his head: "I'm not very good at using my brain to think about things. You'd better tell me the answer directly, Roland."

Roland was a little dumbfounded, but he still explained to Blazer: "It means that every time we capture a city, we can transport our troops to the front in the shortest time. Similarly, if the rear is attacked, we can transport our troops back as quickly as possible." The city under attack. In other words, we will not have the problem of the battlefield being too long, because once we conquer, it is our territory."

"So I plan to launch a blitzkrieg against the Austrian Parliament. The tireless soldier puppets controlled by Servis and the blessing teleportation points make the implementation of blitzkrieg possible. This world may not have the concept of blitzkrieg yet, then Let the old antiques of the Alfa Council, who only know how to use magic to take advantage, have a taste of the power of this method of combat."

After Roland finished explaining, he looked at Blaze with a smile.

Blaze nodded seriously. After thinking for a moment, he asked Roland seriously: "Well, it sounds very good. But what exactly is a 'blitzkrieg'?"

Finally, the half-werewolf's wolf ears flicked innocently a few times.

Chapter 161: Another world version of Blitzkrieg

Blitzkrieg, also known as Blitzkrieg, was a tactic used by Nazi Germany in World War II. Its founder was the famous German general Heinz Wilhelm Guderian.It makes full use of the speedy advantages of aircraft, tanks and mechanized troops to defeat the enemy with surprise attacks, and uses mechanized troops to quickly cut off the enemy's main force to achieve the desired effect.

For the Poles, they are all too familiar with the Blitzkrieg, because Poland was the first theoretical experimental subject of the Blitzkrieg on earth.

The core elements of blitzkrieg are: speed, surprise, and concentration.

In military operations, these three elements are both strategy and tactics.In terms of strategy, the overall coordination is strong, and the tactics are exquisite and unique, flexible and changeable.

During World War II, the German army made full use of the speed advantages of modern war tools such as aircraft, tanks, armored vehicles, and motorcycles, and therefore was able to conquer Poland in just 27 days.Don't think that these 27 days are very long. Looking at it from the perspective of the time, it is simply incredible that Poland was conquered in 27 days.

In this world, Roland has studied the war history of the major countries in the Salid continent, and it is obvious that they do not know the existence of the Blitzkrieg.

The only thing to note is that the former Austrian Law Council once used the teleportation circle to conduct operations similar to blitzkrieg. However, because the teleportation circle was too expensive to transport the army, the Austrian Law Council never used this method again. A tactic.

Anyway, the Austrian Law Council also got what it wanted at that time, and it also used the blood of its enemies to frighten other coveting countries.Therefore, those mages no longer delved into the tactical application of spells.

However, there is no need for them to study this aspect. After all, if they really want to anger the Arcane Council, a large-scale forbidden spell magic will be more effective than anything else.

But what if there is a country that is not afraid of the attack of the Arcane Council's large-scale ban on curse magic?

Even Roland would not think that there is a country on the continent of Salid that can defeat the Orfa Parliament if he can recover his memory without a system.

But things are different now. The existence of the blessing teleportation point allows Roland to quickly transfer his army. Servis's puppet spell also allows Roland to have a group of troops that are tireless and can advance day and night.

As for the baggage, it can be obtained directly from the captured city of the Austrian Law Council. There is no need to worry about the front row troops being too fast and causing them to "go deep alone".

"Time is an army" and "time is victory". What Roland has to do now is to "fold" the shortest possible time into space.

Of course, there are several important points in blitzkrieg, one of which is air superiority.

During World War II, the reason why the German army was able to conquer Europe in just a few months was because they were at the forefront of the world in the use of air force.The first to act in the blitzkrieg was the German aviation force. Its mission was to conduct air strikes on enemy airports, headquarters, arsenals and other strategic targets, to eliminate the enemy air force at the airport, while delaying enemy reinforcements from reaching the front line to the maximum extent possible, and to use aerial reconnaissance to provide The ground forces provide intelligence and provide support when the ground forces encounter difficulties, such as bombing enemy armored units, etc., to clear obstacles for the ground forces.

And Roland happened to have such an air force that could carry out similar military operations-Storm War Eagle.

If the opponent was a country with a complete air force system like the Charles Empire, the Holy Empire of France, or the Kingdom of Bexun, Roland would definitely not act like this.But the Arcane Council did not. This group of stubborn and arrogant mages believed that magic was everything, and even the dragon knights of the Charles Empire would become angry under the attack of magic.

There is nothing wrong with the Austrian Law Council thinking so. After all, dragon knights did fall into their hands.

But that was because the dragon knight took the initiative to close the distance with the ground, wanting to use the dragon's breath to cause more damage.This gave the magicians of the Arcane Council an opportunity to bombard the dragon flying in the sky to the ground with magic.

Roland carefully recalled the battles he had experienced. Whether it was the dragon knights of the Charles Empire or the Pegasus knights of the Holy Empire of France, they all seemed to like to close the distance and use the weapons in their hands to engage in close combat with the enemy. Know how to use yourself to hit people at high altitudes where the enemy cannot reach them.

Even the two dragon knights whom Roland met for the first time in the ancient city took the initiative to land in order to maximize the damage to the enemy.

This makes no sense. Roland decided to open the eyes of people in this world and let them know what real air supremacy is.

I believe that many people have been thrown explosive barrels by the Storm Eagles on the walls of Stonewell City. In other words, at least in the border area, the Storm King knows how to let the War Eagles give full play to their greatest advantages.

There are also substances similar to explosives in this world, but these things are used by the dwarves for mining. Other countries don't seem to be very interested in this kind of substance.

The reason is that the power of the explosion can be done by a mage apprentice or a fighter who has just entered the martial arts realm.Moreover, the development of this kind of explosive requires other things to match it. The most important thing is that the lethality is far from high enough.

However, the dwarves did develop a variety of high explosives after research, but for them, they were just happier than blowing up mountains.

Of course, after the dwarf prince of Stoneheart Castle came into contact with Roland, he seemed to have new ideas about explosives inspired by the exchange with him.That's right, Roland told the dwarf prince about the most common weapon in his original world - firearms.

Also mentioned to Karn Hammer was the steam engine. Judging from the last conversation with the dwarf prince, it seemed that Stoneheart Castle had really cooked up something.

Roland feels that their style of painting in the future will probably become the dwarves in Warcraft 3. They can make all kinds of steam tanks, helicopters, and dwarf musketeers (eye shift).

Far away.

In addition to the Storm Eagle, Roland also has an almost forgotten unit, or species: the winged hybrid.

Although the winged hybrids cannot fly as high into the sky as the Storm Eagle, they can ride on the Storm Eagle to cooperate in combat.After several rounds of ground-washing bombing by the Storm Warhawk, let the winged hybrids jump off their backs to clean up the surviving personnel.

If it weren't for the mages of Kallia who hadn't yet invented a weapon that hung five or six puppets in mid-air like a hot-air balloon, Roland even wanted to launch a paratrooper airborne raid in this other world to open the eyes of the Austrian Parliament.

If combined with Aqir and Atola (Young Flying Dragon), this air force will definitely bring a big surprise to the Offa Council.

The second part of the blitzkrieg is to ensure air supremacy and then cooperate with the air force to launch a surprise attack on the paratroopers. Roland has already planned to let the winged hybrids temporarily serve as the paratroopers. It will be more perfect after the number of puppets made by the Calia mage increases.

The third point is the fast-attacking armored forces. During World War II, most of the German tanks were light tanks, which were unable to fight against the heavy tanks of Britain and France on the frontal battlefield.Therefore, the German army found another way to concentrate the tanks, directly abandoning the drag of the infantry units, and assault the opponent's defense line at one point, turning the disadvantage into an advantage.

However, the British and French tanks were still based on the World War I mentality. Tank troops were distributed throughout the entire front, and their mission was only to support infantry operations. Therefore, during the Battle of France, the heavy tanks of the British and French coalition forces were defeated by the German light tanks. The German army The armored forces can quickly break through the enemy's front lines by concentrating their superior forces to hit the area.And it will not make any stop after breaking through the front line, but rely on its high-speed maneuvers to continue to break into the enemy's hinterland, with the purpose of breaking through the enemy's new defense line before it establishes it.

Roland plans to let the Big Tree Guard lead all the knight units he has summoned so far (except for the Night Cavalry, which will be responsible for scouting important strategic locations in the city of the Officine Council) as the German armored forces during World War II, and bring dragons with them. Human soldiers serve as siege units.Although the number is far inferior to the German tanks during World War II, the individual combat power of each knight is far above the average level in this world.

The territory of the Austrian Parliament is not as large as Poland. With the blessing teleportation point, Roland does not need to order the knights to surround and annihilate the enemy units left behind.

Since Roland basically took out all his wealth this time, the purpose was to completely eliminate the Austrian Parliament, so he asked Bernal and Blaze to join the armored forces.This cavalry unit can be said to be extremely powerful in attacking fortresses, and even bullied the Austrian Parliament.

But war is fought to bully people.

If Greg were not still in the Glen Alliance, Roland would have planned to let Greg guard the home and add Malkit to this cavalry force.

The final infantry unit was left to Servis's puppet soldiers and the Storm Legion led by Neferi Lu who came to support from the rear and were responsible for cleaning up the enemy troops that had not been eliminated.

At this point, after Roland told Blaze all his thoughts, the latter nodded clearly: "You mean, I only need to follow the big tree guard to sprint at full speed and kill people?"

"Uh..." Roland's mouth twitched: "It's not impossible if you insist on understanding it this way."

Blaze smiled: "It's simple. My teeth and sword have been prepared to be dedicated to you and Lani."

Chapter 162: Target, Stargazing City

Roland returned to Stonewell City from Thunder City through the blessing teleportation point, then gathered all the knights he had summoned and led them back to Thunder City.

Since they only mobilized the Storm Legion under Neferi Rue, Greg's Royal Army was still faithfully performing its defense and patrol tasks in the original city, so that the mercenaries and traders did not know that Roland was planning to attack Austrian law. There's a big one coming from Parliament.

Of course, even if they knew it, they wouldn't have time to spread the news, because Roland's next march would be much faster than theirs.

In another gate corridor of Thunder City, there were more than 120 Grek knights wearing green and gold armor, 30 Kaidan mercenaries with gray and white wolf companions, and 30 wearing bright silver armor or red cloaks. The Homeless Knights also have 10 Carian royal knights dressed as cuckoo knights.They waited quietly for Roland's orders here, with only the occasional snort from the horse under their crotches or the occasional deep cry from the throat of Kaidan's mercenary wolf.

But what the residents near the city gate were afraid of were not these heavily armed knights, but the storm war eagles that were as large as an adult man and were densely occupying the roofs of their houses.

Some timid residents looked at the giant eagles with claw-shaped swords at their feet. In addition, the Arcane Council had been smearing the Golden Federation, saying that they were a group of barbarians who were friends with orcs and even beasts. They had begun to kneel down and bow to the Magic Kingdom. God prayed that the other party would not suddenly become animalistic and start killing people in the city.

To be honest, when the city was destroyed, the residents of Thunder City felt that they were doomed before they could escape, especially after seeing the projection of the golden tree.

In ancient times, in order to allow soldiers to release the pressure accumulated in the war after siege, many generals agreed that after siege, their soldiers could burn, kill, loot and plunder wealth in the city.

The most classic one is why Liu Bei was able to escape with the people of Xiaopei and Xinye at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Do you really think Liu Bei had such a great personality that the people would follow him voluntarily?No, that was because people at that time knew that Cao Cao's soldiers were very cruel and had even massacred a city, so the people of Xiaopei and Xinye ran with Liu Bei.

If he didn't run, he might have been slaughtered to vent his anger, but if he ran, he might still be alive. In addition, Liu Bei had a good reputation at the time and was famous for his benevolence.Therefore, the people of these two counties followed Liu Bei when faced with this choice.

However, the residents of Thunder City discovered that the soldiers of the Golden Federation did nothing.Not to mention kicking open the door, these soldiers didn't even look at them, they just rested normally in the place prescribed by Roland.

But this does not mean that the residents of Thunder City have put down their vigilance. The biggest difference between the residents in the territory of the Offa Council and other countries is that the former have a sense of identity, or a sense of superiority.

They consider themselves to be the subjects of the Arcane Council, the superior people living in the country of magicians, and look down upon all those who come to live here from other countries.

For example, the miners in the Thunder City mine are all from other countries, and among other jobs in the city, the coolest and most tiring jobs are also done by people from other countries.Even the prices for selling things are a bit more expensive for outsiders than for locals.

So when Thunder City was destroyed, these residents were not only worried that the soldiers of the Golden Federation would attack them, but also hated them.In their hearts, the residents did not think that the Arcane Council would abandon Thunder City so much, and soon the magicians of the Arcane Council would use unpredictable spells to drive away all these hateful barbarian soldiers.

If Roland knew what these people were thinking, he might find it funny. It is obvious that the mages of the Arcane Council regard these residents as parasites, and there are even many archmages who openly use the residents of their territories for magic experiments.As a result, these residents still thought that the magicians from the Arcane Council would come to reoccupy Thunder City for them.

Even if the Offa Council really sends troops, it will not be for these residents, but for the minerals produced by Thunder City.

Therefore, when the projection of the golden tree appeared above Thunder City, it did not send down its blessing as usual, but simply treated it as a quiet, glowing tree.
