Carry the Ring of Elden with you

He glanced at Fazhuang and pointed to the military camp of Wylis by the river in Leiden City: "There is an army stationed behind Leiden City. The flag is the Greenleaf Family of the Charles Empire. The soldiers of the Greenleaf Family are famous for their elite and bravery. , three hours is not enough for those undead to eliminate them."

Of course, Roland did not know that Wylis himself did not actually intend to support Leiden City, but planned to wait and attack Roland's army.

But now the undead army acted as a variable and dragged Wylis' army into the battlefield, and Wylis had to organize his troops to break out towards Leiden City.

Fighting the tireless undead on the plains is a very death-defying act.This is the first sentence all generals see when they learn how to fight the undead.

Although Wylis' private life is relatively corrupt, he is very reliable as an army commander.

"Let the priests set up the barrier and immediately treat the infected soldiers to see if they can be rescued." Wylis drew out his noble sword and swept it across, trying to rush in from outside the general's camp. The undead king cleared out the short blank area.

As the elite army targeting Roland, Wylis is naturally a legendary level strongman, and the soldiers he leads are all epic level.

Many high-ranking generals in the camp are also elites at the epic level, and at last they are at the palace level.

Therefore, with the fierce resistance of these palace-level and epic-level strong men, Wylis's military camp was not breached immediately.

With quick reaction, Huai Zhi gathered all the uninfected soldiers and easily eliminated the water ghosts that attacked from the river in the camp. At the same time, he summoned the priests in the army to identify and treat the mutated soldiers. .

The priests soon discovered that the mutated soldiers had all drank water from the Leiden River, but fortunately they did not drink too much.

Wylis and his soldiers were okay because they had been drinking for the past few days. The other senior generals also drank sweet water stored in expensive magic instruments.So only those soldiers who drank the water they carried and went to fetch water from the Leiden River suffered.

The clergy fed the prepared holy water into the mouths of the mutated soldiers who were tied up by Wylis' soldiers.

The soldiers vomited black water after drinking it, twitched a few times and then woke up. Then they immediately picked up their weapons and went into battle amidst the scoldings of their commanders.

"Report to the general, all infected people who are still alive have been rescued!"

As a powerful force, Wylis and his soldiers have been supporting the weakly defended areas of the military camp. A cleric said in an orderly tone after finding Wylis.

"Okay, Raghan, find the messenger and convey my order! The whole army breaks out and enters Leiden City!" The sword in Wylis's hand emitted blazing flames, and he swung it out, sending the living corpses and ghouls in front of him into the city. Turned into charcoal in the sea of ​​fire.

"Yes!" Raghan, who was also fighting on the side, shouted, left the front line, and found the messenger on standby in the rear to convey Wylis's order.

The messenger immediately puffed up his cheeks and blew a fast and rhythmic horn. After hearing the horn sound, Wylis' soldiers immediately killed the incoming undead in an orderly manner while shrinking the defense line.

As a legendary strongman, Wylis led his soldiers to the front of the breakout team without hesitation, treating himself as a sharp and solid blade.

"Cavalry gather!" 2500 cavalrymen gathered behind Wylis like a torrent. Fortunately, the horses' drinking water was special and they were not infected.Otherwise, Huailisike would have a lot of headaches.

The 2500 cavalry were followed by infantry: sword and shield bearers, magic soldiers, spearmen, etc., a total of more than [-] people.

This is also the reason why Wylis didn't pay attention to these undead armies before.

"Holy light protects!" The priests protected by the soldiers in the center of the team jointly held up a majestic white light shield, and the ether shields jointly generated by the magic soldiers appeared on the left and right sides of the team.

"Mage troops, release the floating technique and the light feather technique!" A large number of group buffs fell on the infantry, so that they could keep up with the charge of the cavalry as much as possible.

"Charge with me!" Wylis got on his horse, his cloak billowing, and pointed his sword at the undead army in front of him, which was mixed with hatred and banshees.

He led his own soldiers with cyan ether burning on their bodies, and the 2500 cavalry he brought were like hot water poured on ice, slamming into the encirclement formed by the ghouls and living corpses, and the soldiers at the rear They followed closely.

At this moment, the number of humans on the local battlefield that broke out even briefly exceeded that of the undead.

"Ha!" Looking at the huge bone knife wielded by the Hateful Butcher in front of him, Wylis' eyes narrowed, and the long sword in his hand charged up to stab. The huge green sword energy rushed towards the Hateful Butcher, knocking its invulnerable body into pieces. Cuts easily.

The Banshee let out a piercing howl in the air, swooping down to release a panic aura and mind control on Wylis and the cavalry. They wanted to stop the human chariot that was starting to speed up.

However, the two spells were blocked by the protection barrier that the priests had prepared. Many of the charging soldiers had mages tearing apart spell scrolls, and magic of various attributes and colors flew towards the banshees approaching the team, trying to kill them. up in the air.

Many female demons were hit by these soaring spells, and their slender figures disappeared into the air with hoarse curse screams.

However, the team that wanted to break through was too large, and Wylis could not completely defend those high-level undead.

There were still many hateful butchers who crashed into the formation on the flanks. They raised and lowered their knives, and the bone knives dyed a large area of ​​land red.

On local battlefields, epic-level generals led their soldiers to kill the abominable butchers who rushed into the breakout formation. However, they began to lose touch with other teams and were separated by the undead kings and gradually eaten away.

In the end, the epic-level strongman faced several lichs and endless ghouls. The ether in his body was exhausted and he was outnumbered. He turned into a brand-new undead puppet and joined the ranks of chasing his own people.

Huilisi, who was rushing at the front, finished killing the lich in front of him and smashed its skull into pieces. Suddenly he felt the pressure in front of him lighten. When he looked up, he realized that he had broken out of the undead army.

Not far from him was the city wall of Leiden. However, Wylis looked back at the team and saw that the 2500 cavalrymen had not lost much, and there were still more than 2200.But the subsequent infantry lineup has not yet been updated, and the undead are trying to separate the infantry from the cavalry.

"Kill them back! Cover them!" Wylis immediately turned around without thinking, and the steel torrent of cavalry separated to the left and right, rushing back into the ranks of the evil dead.

Raghan was in charge of commanding the infantry. When he saw Wylis turning around and charging with the cavalry, he gave the order to let the mages tear apart the last spell scrolls on their bodies and throw them at the undead that were rushing around, clearing out a brief period of safety. district.

Then Wylis led the roaring iron cavalry and plunged into the safe zone towards the rear of the team.

Raghan did not stop, and cooperated with several other epic generals to maintain the gap that Wylis had just opened, allowing the soldiers behind him to rush through.

After charging back and forth several times, Wylis led the remaining infantry of more than 2500 to the gates of Leiden until only about 800 of the 6000 cavalry were left.

The remaining soldiers could not even sleep peacefully on this land, and stood up crookedly again and became part of the undead army.

The remaining soldiers of Leiden City had just regained control of the city gate with difficulty. They had long seen the huge army of Wylis breaking through the undead army.

So when Wylis spoke up for the first time, he immediately opened the city gate of Leiden City. At the same time, the defensive trebuchets and ballistae on the city wall kept running out stone balls and crossbow arrows to help fend off the chasing undead king. .

"Priests and mages go first! Cavalry will follow! Swordsmen, shield bearers and heavy armored soldiers will form a defensive line with me!" Wylis saw the gates of Leiden City opened and did not enter the city anxiously. Once the army rushed to enter the city, it would only be a disaster. The greedy undead behind have an opportunity.

Wylis brought two of his own guards, who had lost two, to the front of the team, shouting commands and boosting the morale of the soldiers.

All this was seen by the scouts sent by Roland.

Two Grek soldiers holding crossbows were close to the battlefield, looking sharply at the life-and-death race between humans and the undead. Then they got up and ran towards the military camp. There were many ghouls and ghouls scattered around them. The remains of living corpses.

Occasionally, a lone low-level undead would see these two Grek soldiers while charging, and immediately abandon their original purpose and rush towards them, but were neatly dealt with by these two soldiers.

These two soldiers were Robles and Amber. They came to the military camp and reported the information they had seen to Roland and the Homeless Knights.

Roland was a little surprised. He did not doubt that this army could withstand the attack of the undead, but charging in reverse and entering the city showed how powerful this army was.

"This army should be aimed at me, so it is stationed behind Leiden City and not inside the city to assist in defense." Roland expressed his speculation: "The soldiers of Leiden City cannot have such high combat literacy and strength. , this army is very strange."

Fortunately, the undead didn't know why they were crazy, so they bypassed Leiden City and forced the army out, which consumed a lot of their troops.

"Now that this army has entered the city to help defend it, the battle between the undead and Leiden City may have variables." White said: "But capturing Leiden City is still not a problem, but we will consume a lot of troops and time in the city. In the middle of a street fight. I'm afraid that if it drags on for too long, something will go wrong in Moren City."

Roland took out the scroll signed by Lord Malen and said to White: "I don't want you to completely occupy Leiden City. This cannot be achieved in a short time with just our number."

"I only need to let the commander who is staying in Leiden City see the surrender letter signed and sealed by the Lord of Malen City, and my goal will be achieved."

That's right, it was the same routine as when Roland forced Marek to give up the position of city lord to him and occupy Duogu City.

Occupying a city is not just about attacking it with troops. As long as the city manager recognizes that the city belongs to Roland, then Roland will count as occupying the city.It's just that when Malen left Leiden City, he arranged all the matters in the city to his subordinates. Although he was nominally the lord of Leiden City, the system did not think he was.

Therefore, Roland still needs to show this surrender letter to Mullen's men to let them know that their master has abandoned him.

"So we only need to capture the current commander of Leiden City alive to achieve your goal, Lord Roland?" White nodded slightly: "In that case, the goal will be much easier."

Chapter 10: The trap called "The Rescuer"

Wylis rode indifferently to the guards of Leiden City and asked in a cold voice: "Who is the current commander of Leiden City? Let him come to see me quickly."

A soldier whose leather armor was almost damaged stood up: "It's me, General."

Wylis frowned. He looked at this soldier who was obviously just a squad leader, with a hint of contempt in his eyes: "Elliot, don't you dare to see me? That's right. This waste allowed the undead army to bypass the defense line of Leiden City. As a result, many extremely brave soldiers in our army died for no reason."

A trace of anger flashed in the squad leader's lowered eyes.But on the opposite side was a strong man with legendary strength, who could easily crush him with one finger, so he could only say in a low voice: "Commander Elliot and Deputy Commander Dude have been killed, and the other adjutants are also here. He died in the defensive battles in the past few days, and now I am the only person with the highest military rank in the city."

Wylis did not feel sorry when he heard the news of Elliott's death. He just asked: "How did he die?"

"Commander Elliot somehow turned into a living corpse indistinguishable from the undead, and Deputy Commander Dutt was killed by a banshee after killing Commander Elliot."

When Wylis heard the news that Elliot had turned into an undead, he immediately asked urgently: "Was there a flash of purple light at that time? Did the water source in Leiden City come from the Leiden River? Why didn't you do anything?"

The squad leader shook his head: "At that time, I was on the front line resisting the undead army. I didn't notice what you said, General. I don't know why we didn't have any accidents. However, the water source in Leiden City does come from the Leiden River."

"Go, send some priests to check the various water intakes and granaries in the city, and the others will go to the front line to support and consolidate the holy light barrier." Wylis turned to the soldiers behind him and ordered, and the soldiers nodded and left the team to inform the people in charge. The clergy troops being repaired in the city.

Wylis dismounted and ordered the captain: "From now on, I will take over all affairs in Leiden City. Let your people go back first, and you can come and report to me how many people are alive in Leiden City." .”

"There are currently only more than 5000 soldiers holding the position in Leiden City, including the militiamen raised from the citizens." The team leader thought for a while and reported: "In addition, there are many old, weak, women and children in the city, we can only save More than [-] people have returned, and five blocks have been completely occupied and completely blocked by us. It is not clear when they will be broken through."

"Are there still [-] people alive? That's great." Wylis's eyes lit up, but the team leader could tell that the voice was not one of relief that the citizens were alive.

His heart skipped a beat when he heard Wylis's beautiful voice uttering demonic words: "Forcibly recruit all those who can bear arms from those untouchables. All women and children must bear arms for me."

"Wait, sir. Those women and children have not experienced basic combat training at all. They are just going to die on the front line." The team leader stopped him in a panic: "After death, they will only increase the number of troops for the undead. Besides, you have subordinates under your command. This group of elite soldiers can completely hold our line of defense until reinforcements arrive, why do you do this?"

"Noisy." The sword in Wylis' hand flashed, and the squad leader rolled to the ground with his confused head, frightening the soldiers behind him to retreat.

Wylis casually raised his sword and pointed at a bewildered soldier, and said lazily: "You, yes, that's you. From now on, you are their commander and you will directly obey my orders. If you don't act according to my words, you will be killed on the ground." That head is your fate, do you understand?"

The soldier was so frightened that he knelt on the ground, trembling all over, kowtowed and replied: "Yes...yes..."

"Very good, now go and carry out the order I just said, and let those useless pariahs go to the front line to resist those low-level undead." Wylis got off his horse and suddenly thought of something before leaving, and turned around, scaring the soldier all over again. A shake.

Wylis said in a generous tone: "Of course, I am very generous and will not be stingy in equipping these untouchables with weapons and armor. I will open the weapons warehouse in Leiden City and provide it to those people. Do you understand?"

"Yes."

Wylis nodded with satisfaction before leading the guards behind him to the command post and issuing orders.

"Let the chaplains and therapists in the army heal the wounded soldiers who just broke out, and then send people to check how many days the current granary in Leiden City can survive. The focus is on the water source. Please inform me of my order. Before drinking water, you must drink water that has been purified by the clergy. If there is any violation, he and his family will be beheaded in public after returning." Wylis sat casually in Eliot's seat before, with his legs on the table. .

Raghan turned back and frowned at the soldiers from Leiden City while walking into the command post and said to Wylis: "Master Wylis, why do you want those women and children to fight against the undead? In addition to increasing casualties, I did not No other purpose was thought of.”

"Why, couldn't you even think of it?" Wylis raised his eyebrows and pursed his lips: "What do you think our mission is?"

Raghan was not a fool. He figured it out in a flash: "It is to destroy the army of the Golden Dynasty. Do you want our soldiers to rest for a while to maintain their energy to deal with them?"

Wylis smiled and nodded: "No, it's not just that. According to the intelligence analysis provided by Ms. Lu Yi, the character of the leader of the Golden Dynasty named Roland seems to hate the suffering of those untouchables, and he is a disgusting good man. That's why I Thinking that if he saw the suffering of the untouchables in Leiden City, he would help rescue these untouchables from chaos. Raghan, you should understand that a drowning person will cling to anything close to him, right? "

Raghan sighed and said: "So you plan to turn those residents into 'drowning people', let these people cling to the Golden Dynasty and drag them into the water?"

"That's right, once the army of the Golden Dynasty chooses to help these untouchables, if they don't continue to help, all they need is a slight provocation from me." Wylis said here, picking up a broken arrow on the table and breaking it. With a slight twist, the arrow broke: "Just like this arrow, as long as there are cracks in a solid object, it won't take much effort to destroy it. Those despicable untouchables will aim their spearheads at My savior, guess why, Raghan?"

Raghan thought for a moment and shook his head.

Wylis laughed heartily: "Hahaha, that's because those untouchables know that we will really kill them, and the people of the Golden Dynasty will not attack them no matter how intimidated they are. Do you understand?"

Raghan nodded: "I understand, bully the weak and avoid the strong."

"Yes, yes. That's it, bully the weak and fear the strong." Wylis nodded with satisfaction.

Raghan looked sad and sighed: "But this may also cause them to rebel against us together with the Golden Dynasty. Lord Wylis, have you considered it?"

Wylis shrugged: "Then leave the children as hostages and let the women go. Sometimes when dealing with mothers, putting a knife on the child's neck is more effective than putting it on their neck."

Raghan frowned: "It would be too shameful to do this. Aren't you afraid that the matter will spread and your Greenleaf family will be embarrassed?"

Wylis stretched out a finger and shook it, and then showed a meaningful smile to Raghan: "No, no, no, they will not tell it. Because the evil Golden Dynasty colluded with the undead natural disasters, which led to the great and kind Lai All the citizens of Dun City heroically sacrificed their lives on the front line against the undead natural disaster."

"In this way, His Majesty has eliminated his worries, we have completed His Majesty's mission perfectly, and the people of Leiden City have gained a reputation. This is really the best of all three. Think about it, Raghan, you have completed this mission You will receive a reward personally awarded by His Majesty. I know that your family has difficulties, but all difficulties are not difficulties in His Majesty’s eyes, not to mention that you will also get the support of the Stacey family, do you understand?"

Wylis was like the poisonous snake that tempted Adam and Eve, and his voice lingered in Raghan's ears.

Raghan's face changed, his Adam's apple rolled, and the words of rejection were in his mouth.

But he thought of the haggard and overworked bodies of his parents who were bent on revitalizing the family in the capital, and the pure and innocent eyes of his younger siblings.

Raghan closed his eyes and took a deep breath. When he opened his eyes again, his eyes became sinister.

He looked at Wylis and nodded: "You are right, Lord Wylis. I will personally supervise this matter. Please rest assured."

Wylis smiled and nodded. When Raghan's figure disappeared, the smile on his face gradually turned into a sneer.

"Oh, a mere low-level noble still wants to win the favor of His Majesty and Ms. Lu Yi?" Wylis said to himself disdainfully: "You are just a substitute to take the blame for me."

To the west of Leiden City, the Golden Dynasty camp.

"Lord Roland, please be sure to sit on my horse when the battle starts so that I can protect you more easily." Ikosela found Roland who was resting with his eyes closed and said softly.

Roland opened his eyes and saw the loyal Knight Rodel in front of him nodding, and then said with regret: "It would be great if I were stronger. After all, in the border area, 'strength is the reason for being king.'" , isn’t it?”

Melina, who had been sitting next to Roland, comforted her: "We have all witnessed your power, it is only temporarily sealed. And you, who were very weak when you first arrived at the border, do not have that powerful power. Instead, you rely on your persistence and optimism to gradually reach the position of King of Elden."

Roland replied: "Thank you for your comfort, Melina. I understand what you mean, but if I can regain control of that powerful force now, my soldiers will suffer fewer casualties in the next battle."

Ikosela shook his head, and then said sternly: "No, as a king's army serving demigods, it would actually be a shame for us to ask you to protect us. Please don't worry, Lord Roland. Regardless of the battle. How difficult and bumpy the process will be, our King’s Army will definitely bring you victory.”

Roland did not expect Ikosela to think so. This was the difference in thinking between the two.

Because Roland still has the thinking of modern society and believes that every soldier dies because of his orders.Although he didn't feel any pain, he definitely felt guilty inside.

But in fact, Ikosela and the others didn't feel that there was anything sad about dying in battle because of Roland's order.

Because this is their mission, responsibility and obligation to serve the King of Elden.

Not to mention that Roland summoned them who had lost the blessing to the new world and gave them blessings again, allowing them to fight under Roland's command.

For the king's army, this represents a holy war!They want to fill this strange world with the glory of golden trees, and it is their greatest honor to fight with the king of faith.
