The Rise of the Cemetery

In the tent, Sir Hanwick and a group of lords and knight leaders had just listened to the scout's report on the surrounding situation, and waved him to go down to rest. Before they could speak, a surprise shout suddenly came from beside them: "Father!"

Sir Hanwick was shocked, this is, this is the voice of Little Jack, it is close to the ear, but what about it?

Suddenly, Master Li Xun suddenly appeared in the void beside him, nodded to Sir with a smile and said: "Lord Sir, look who is back."

Next to Master Li Xun, Little Jack also suddenly appeared, and plunged into Jazz's arms.

All the lords and knight leaders backed away in shock, only Jazz hugged little Jack and muttered. Li Xun found a chair and sat down to rest his mind, waiting quietly for everyone to return to normal.

Everyone in the tent repeatedly expressed the miraculousness of the mage, and congratulated the Jazz on getting back his youngest son before the war, which saved him from worries, and they were full of confidence in tomorrow's battle.

Li Xun also briefly talked about what he saw in the enemy camp, especially mentioned the issue of the number of people, and said that he would go to the nearby area to investigate immediately to see what their plans were! Then without stopping, he got out of the tent and added the "Invisibility" and "Levitation" skills to himself, and began to float towards the side of the camp on the branches.

An hour later, Li Xun hurried back to the camp in high spirits, and marked two locations on the map for Sir Hanwick and the others. There were 200 thieves hiding in a hidden place 3 miles away from the left of the coalition forces; 4 miles away from the right. There are 100 thieves hiding in the hiding place. It seems that they plan to attack the coalition forces from both sides at the critical hour when the war starts tomorrow.

After explaining the topography of the two places, Li Xun yawned and hurried back to the tent he had prepared for himself, and fell asleep soundly. Tonight, his own consumption was not small, and he used the "invisibility" and "floating techniques" continuously to make himself The mana is exhausted, if you don't take a rest to restore the mana in the state, how will you deal with tomorrow's battle?

After Hei Tian fell asleep, Li Xun woke up full of ambition, but his stomach was growling. He hurriedly ordered food to be served, and while eating, he listened to the chief guard guarding the camp to convey Sir Hanwick's battle plan.

After finishing his work last night, Li Xun went back to his tent and couldn't sleep, but Sir Hanwick discussed with the lords and knight leaders all night, and reached a final battle plan:

The two lords led their own private army and the city guard of Naya City, a total of 1,200 people, arrived at the camp of the blood ax thieves 1 mile away. The lord and two knight leaders led a private army of 600 people to deploy defenses on the right side of the coalition army, monitoring the dynamics of the 100-man hidden point on the right side.

Sir Hanwick led his own private army of 800 people to the hiding place of 200 bandits on the left side, trying to clean up the dagger hidden behind his back in one fell swoop. The jazz's chief guard guarded outside the mage's camp to convey the entire battle plan to the mage, and asked the mage to support Sir Hanwick's battlefield at his convenience.

Li Xun ate and drank, kept silent, pondered over this battle plan, and still agreed with it in his heart. It seems that Astali? Blood Ax intends to personally lead 400 people to defend the lair to lure the coalition forces to attack fiercely. This strategy is very dangerous, the danger is to divide the small number of thieves into three, if they succeed, they will win a big victory, and if they fail, they will be smashed to pieces.

Sir Hanwick and the high-level coalition forces also aimed at this situation. They used 1,200 people, including the most elite Naya city guards, to block Astali? Mainly, strive to be led by Sir Hanwick to break the largest dagger on the left first.

Originally, the best way was to attack from two directions and attack these two hidden points at the same time, but after all, it was a risk of aggressiveness. Still focusing on defending against enemy attacks, a large number of knights were transferred to Sir Hanwick's command to strengthen the strength of the left side, eat up the 200 thieves in one fell swoop to establish a victory first, and then work hard to secure the victory.

After eating and drinking, Li Xun rushed to the battlefield on the left accompanied by the chief guard. The 3 miles passed by in a flash, and when they arrived at the battlefield, the battle was going on fiercely. The thieves obviously didn't prepare for the attack from the coalition forces. The mountain depression where they hide is mainly hidden, and there is no strong camp to resist. Now they are blocked by Sir Hanwick's men, there is no danger to defend, so they have to fight hard to get out .

The coalition forces had already prepared for this. The front was mainly shielded soldiers and spearmen to resist, and the hunter troops behind spread out, spreading death to the thieves as much as they wanted. The equipment of the thieves is disorganized, basically there is no armor stomach, and there are not many leather armors. Most of them are still cloth clothes and leather robes. They really have no defense against bows and arrows. The thieves who are entangled with shield soldiers and spearmen immediately suffered a big loss. , screamed and fell to the ground, the whole situation is very good.

Li Xun came under the banner of Sir Hanwick, and was warmly welcomed by the knight and several knights. After a few days of getting along, everyone has become familiar with each other, and they all hope to have more contact with Mage Li Xun. After all, having an official mage as a magic consultant is something that ordinary nobles can't even imagine! The battle situation ahead is clearly on the side of the coalition forces, and everyone is also calm and thinking about how to make greater achievements. Therefore, when the 7th-level berserkers of the Blood Ax Thieves led people to rush out of the shield formation and kill the spearmen , several knights immediately asked for orders to attack.

Although Li Xun also has the experience of being hot-eyed, he didn't dare to stop everyone's eagerness to make meritorious deeds, so he could only accompany the Jazz in the rear and watch from a distance as several armor-piercing and shield-wielding knights with guards resisted the berserker's attack The giant ax re-sealed the gap in the shield formation, and surrounded the few people who rushed into the shield formation with the berserker warrior, stabbed with swords and spears, and soon there was only one berserker warrior barely supporting himself, with a sound Howling unwillingly, the berserker was also pierced through the chest by a sword and fell to the ground.

The follow-up battle was lackluster, it was simply a massacre. The thieves who had lost their leader and lost their terrain could not retreat. The jazz has long ordered that no prisoners should be kept, which is also the practice of Novus Principality.

Before the morning was over, the whole battle was over. After the battle, 50 people were left to clean the battlefield. The 700 people from the left army immediately returned to the army camp, and joined the 600 people from the lord's private army on the right, leaving 300 people to defend the camp. 1,000 people went straight to the hideout of the thieves on the right side, and they successfully wiped out the 100 thieves in the afternoon, which made Li Xun feel incredible.

Only then did Li Xun realize the importance of intelligence to a war. If there is no accurate information provided by oneself, how dare such a mixed team of the coalition force divide its troops for defense! How dare to mobilize the elite to go straight to the enemy's henchmen! I also care too much, always worrying that if I don't do it well, it will affect my "Bone Sea" plan. Only now do I know that as long as I know this and the other, a war can be so simple.

When the coalition forces that had won two major victories returned to the camp, their aura reached its peak, and they immediately made a strong attack. They rushed to the blood ax lair, joined the 1,200 people here, provoked the berserker's head, and launched a violent attack on the enemy's camp. s attack.

This is a battle that must be won. The generals of the coalition army are all proud and elated, urging their own private army to fight for the lead, and climb up the camp regardless of casualties. Showing up, the entire resistance quickly collapsed with the fall of the main gate of the camp.

After the coalition forces rushed into the camp, they found that many thieves were looting property and fleeing to the back mountain. So the last battle took place under the wall of the back mountain. The rope hanging down the mountain, the scene is chaotic. With the arrival of coalition soldiers, everything was over, and nearly 200 thieves did not die at the front gate of resistance, but fell at the back mountain of survival.

In accordance with Li Xun's strong request, at dusk, all the corpses of the thieves, including the two hidden spots outside, were gathered in the middle of the hilltop of Blood Axe's lair. After careful identification, Astali? Blood Axe was not found. It seemed that he had slipped away early on alert, which made Sir Hanwick resentful.

Under the proposal of Master Li Xun, except for a few major bandit leaders who were taken by the lords to Naya City to ask for credit, in order to avoid the plague, the remaining nearly 700 corpses of bandits and more than 200 corpses of coalition soldiers who died in battle They dug a deep pit and buried it, and then a big fire set the entire mountaintop on fire.

That night at the camp at the bottom of the mountain, we had a rest and carnival. When everyone was drinking and drinking, and enjoying the carnival, Li Xun also bid farewell to Sir Hanwick, explaining that he intends to continue to go deep into the Whispering Forest to hunt down Astari? Blood Axe, in exchange for The jazz and all the knights responded enthusiastically, and planned to send their own guards to follow the mage.

Li Xun politely declined everyone's kindness, whispered that the forest is vast and boundless, and it is extremely difficult to really catch a person who only wants to abscond. .

Sir Hanwick discussed with the knights, took out 8,000 gold coins from the seized property to thank the mage for his help, and took out their best wild survival tools for the mage to choose.

The next day, after the fire was extinguished, the coalition forces began to march back one after another. Li Xun also parted ways with the others, and walked to the depths of the Whispering Forest alone.
