Lord of the People: My Talent is 100 Million Points Strong

Chapter 508: The end of the fortress battle

Chapter 508: The end of the fortress battle

He noticed the direction of the camp behind him, and the billowing smoke rising up.

Not only was Hong Mo's old eyes full of disbelief, but his words stopped abruptly.

Even the other soldiers of the Holy Night Army around them all had expressions of shock, and they could hardly believe their eyes.

For a while, except for the constant explosions and shouts of killing around.

This area was so silent, it was terribly quiet.

Such an extremely quiet scene is undoubtedly in stark contrast to the surrounding extremely dynamic battlefield.

While everyone was stunned.

A panic-stricken staff officer rushed to the front of the Red Devil, and said directly to the tunnel: "Master Hong Devil, the hinterland of our camp has been violently attacked by the opponent, and the absolute defensive barrier has been broken by the opponent." !"

"What?!"

Hearing the sound, on Hong Mo's old face, a pair of cloudy eyeballs filled with bloodshot eyes were almost about to burst out of their eye sockets.

You know, the absolute defensive barrier in the rear camp is deployed with three of the most elite magician squadrons.

Its strength is so strong that even if the Griffin Knight Squadron that was completely wiped out just now dropped all the alchemy bombs, it would be impossible to break it.

In addition, there are three elite archer squadrons and four elite heavy infantry squadrons guarding the camp.

Such a second-tier elite combat force with a scale of thousands of people, relying on the absolute defensive enchantment, is enough to make ten fourth-tier powerhouses return home without a feather!

"So, how did the other party do it?! Could it be that...in the camp of the mysterious helper, there really are fifth-order powerhouses?!"

Realizing this, a chill instantly rushed into the Red Devil's mind.

Until now, he didn't fully realize it.

How terrifying is that mysterious helping hand hidden in the dark.

"First, he broke Aogu's dedication to the city, and then used his tricks to swallow the most elite intrusion legion of the old man, and then played hard to capture, and defeated the old man's two long-range legions one after another."

Recalling the scenes of this fortress offensive and defensive battle, the Red Devil couldn't help taking a breath of the stale air full of blood and scorching, setting off a huge wave in his heart.

"Then, this mysterious helper used thunderous means to destroy the old man's Griffin Knight Squadron, the disappearing eighth legion, and the powerhouse of the Dark Devourer. Attacked the old man's camp?!"

Looking ahead at the fortress by the forest that was still strong under the fierce attack, the old eyes of the Red Devil were full of shock.

"Originally, the old man thought that as long as he sacrificed his three hole cards, he would definitely shake the balance of victory and welcome the goddess of victory. However, he did not expect that the opponent's hole cards are the real king of this war."

"What's even more frightening is that the mysterious helping hand, even with the top combat power of a fifth-order powerhouse, was not dispatched in a hurry until the final critical moment..."

"In short, recalling all the battles, such a calm and calm strategy and layout, it makes one's spine shudder! It is absolutely impossible for that old man with an elm-like head to do this!"

Thinking of this, the Red Devil's expression became more dignified and puzzled.

Then he roared in his heart: "Then, who is this old man fighting against? Or, who is that mysterious helping hand?!"

At the same time that the Red Devil's mind was fluctuating.

Looking at the direction of the camp in the distance, thick black smoke billowed continuously.

On the faces of the surrounding Holy Night soldiers, the killing intent just now had long since disappeared, replaced by restlessness and fear.

In an instant, the originally high morale and fighting spirit dropped to freezing point in an instant.

"Master Red Devil, retreat! My Holy Night has no chance of winning!"

Directly opposite, the middle-aged lieutenant kneeled on one knee again, begging with his head bowed.

The rest of the staff officers also made the same actions one after another.

Hearing the requests of all the officers, this time, the Red Devil finally let go of his clenched fist.

Knowing that the situation was over, he didn't hesitate any longer, and then he waved his hand and ordered: "First of all, order all the water magicians to create as much muddy terrain as possible on the only way down the mountain.

Secondly, arrange those horses and deer strongholds to prevent the opponent's cavalry from pursuing, and finally, the light and heavy infantry brigades of each legion will come to the rear and retreat! "

A moment later, the low-pitched sound of the retreating horn resounded throughout the battlefield.

"Great, the Holy Night Army has finally retreated!"

At the same time, in the hidden place of the city wall of the fortress by the forest, looking at the soldiers of the Holy Night Army retreating like a flood below the city, Ariel's delicate face suddenly showed a touch of uncontrollable joy.

She looked at Lei Xiao who was standing calmly at the side, and said excitedly: "Everything is exactly as you expected!"

At this moment, Ariel, who is Princess Lengyan, understood clearly.

The calm-looking young man in front of him who came from another world not only successfully repelled the Holy Night Army of eight legions, but also thwarted the opponent's plot to capture the three fortresses.

Moreover, after indirectly saving the fortress, countless unarmed Lengyan people!

Such a feat is enough for this young man from another world to be recorded in Leng Yan's history forever and become a Leng Yan hero admired by everyone!

Even, it is not difficult to be canonized by the royal family and become the most dazzling new nobleman in the upper class of Lengyan!

"However, the promotion of officials and the reward of wealth, such things that almost everyone dreams of, for him, I'm afraid he will just sneer."

Looking at Lei Xiao's calm profile, Ariel sighed softly in her heart again.

"With this guy's unbelievable financial resources and strong background, I'm afraid he should be the one to give other people promotions and rewards..."

Thinking of this, Ariel lowered her starry eyes and shook her head helplessly.

"Small tricks are nothing to worry about."

Hearing the sound, Lei Xiao first smiled lightly.

Then, he focused his gaze on the group of Holy Night Army mages who were concentrating on casting spells not far from the city wall, under the guard of the heavy infantry.

Looking at these water magicians, who either created huge water **** and smashed them to the ground, or simply created a small cloud that was dripping rain, Lei Xiao couldn't help showing a thoughtful look on his face.

There is no doubt that these magicians are obviously creating muddy terrain to prevent the cold flame army in the fortress from rushing out, causing more casualties.

"This idea of changing the terrain of the battlefield, I have already had some ideas before, but in the final analysis, I still have to rely on powerful magic power."

Realizing this, Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows slightly surrounded by his subordinates.

For him who has Hong Ye, who is a red dragon, and Chaoyan, a great magician of the fire department, under his command.

It is naturally a breeze to completely evaporate this moisture-filled terrain and turn it into solid soil again.

"Your Excellency, the Red Devil has finally retreated!"

Accompanied by a burst of hearty laughter.

Bai Lao, who was dressed in white armor, was already surrounded by several commanders of the Lengyan Army, and walked over in a hurry, and said excitedly: "This time, it's all up to Her Royal Highness Princess and Your Excellency Ke Qing!"

Then, under the leadership of Bai Lao.

All the commanders of the Lengyan Army put their hands on their chests and bowed deeply to Lei Xiao and Ai Lier, expressing their gratitude.

"General Bai and the commanders are welcome, this battle is the result of everyone's concerted efforts."

Smiling slightly, Lei Xiao immediately asked: "Old General Bai, among the three fortresses of our side, the pursuit troops who beat the dogs in the water are all ready?"

"Your Excellency, you are all ready. There are a total of 8,000 cavalry in the three fortresses, and they are already eager to try!"

Nodding to Lei Xiao, Bai Lao stroked his beard and immediately responded.

"Very good, let's start now when the opponent's morale is at its lowest."

Having said that, Lei Xiao turned his head, and then ordered to Hong Ye beside him, "Go, let the other party's magic terrain be disabled first, and then leave the final fear to the other party."

"Yes! My lord."

Hearing this, Hong Ye first bowed slightly, then disappeared in front of Lei Xiao in a flash.

"Thank you, Your Majesty Ke Qing, then I will excuse you first!"

After saluting Lei Xiao again, Bai Lao and the others took a step forward and hurriedly went to set up the pursuit mission.

That's it, it didn't take long.

Accompanied by bursts of monstrous flames, and the endless roar of horseshoes galloping.

Behind the Holy Night Army who was evacuating in a hurry, the screams of ghosts and wolves came again.

On the towering city wall, looking at the flames sometimes rising in the distance, Lei Xiao nodded slightly.

Just now, the four people including Hu Zhang and the ten pterodactyl knights including Xiao En also returned intact.

However, Lei Xiao did not let these subordinates go to the battlefield again, but ordered everyone to rest in place.

At this moment, Lei Xiao understood clearly.

What I have to do, of course, is not to wipe out the Holy Night Army fleeing in embarrassment.

Instead, it rebalanced the combat power between Lengyan and Shengye, so that the two sides returned to a confrontation state where neither could destroy the other.

It is conceivable that if the Holy Night Army is completely disabled here.

Then, losing the Cold Flame Frontier Legion controlled by the Holy Night Army will undoubtedly become an extremely unstable factor.

"Just like what I thought just now, once this cold flame army is used by those princes to deal with me in turn, it will be a matter of more harm than good."

With a slight curl of his lips, Lei Xiao continued to think.

"As for the underground tunnel, I have already asked Hongye to seal the entrance, and handed it over to Guanzhong's younger brother Guante, who will lead the garrison brigade recruited from Kongqing Town to be in charge of guarding it."

"Now that we have figured out the exact location of the tunnel, it is naturally not difficult to defend it."

"In addition, when I left, I took all the ice knights and earth guardians back to the space bracelet."

At this time, Lei Xiao was looking at the distant place, where the flames were looming and chasing the battlefield, while thinking thoughtfully: "As for that Guante, let the people get in touch with him later, and just wait for the opportunity to subdue him."

"By the way, there is also Mailan Town where Xuanyue is located. There is also a garrison brigade and two third-tier powerhouses here. I have to let Xuanyue get in touch later. Fortunately, as far as I know, this battle , the two garrison brigades of Kongqing Town and Mailan Town are almost unscathed."

"As for the three cities under my command, Magnet Town, Shuiyue City, and Fenglong City, I have not sent reinforcements to this border battlefield, let alone Chijian Town, which didn't even have a garrison before."

Thinking of this, Lei Xiao frowned slightly again.

I thought to myself: "Speaking of which, I don't think the underground tunnel under the armory is naturally formed... However, there are no traces of artificial excavation. Therefore, where is the mystery? ?

After thinking for a moment, Lei Xiao's frown furrowed, relaxed again, shook his head and said: "Forget it, the most urgent task right now is to completely stabilize the border battlefield, and then wait for the opportunity to subdue Ariel. As for other things, we will talk about them later." .

Realizing this, Lei Xiao moved his dark eyes and landed on Ariel who was beside him, only to find that this girl was also looking at him with a complicated expression.

"Dear Your Highness the Fifth Princess, do I have flowers on my face?"

Raising his eyebrows slightly, Lei Xiao teased.

"Don't...don't be sentimental, this princess is just looking behind you, and it just happened to be blocked by your head!"

On the other side, Ariel quickly withdrew her gaze, flicked the ponytail behind her head, and hummed softly.

However, just after she finished speaking, Ariel's starry eyes flashed, and she unconsciously cast her gaze over again, and said to Lei Xiao, "I came from another world, this time it's really thanks to you."

After finishing speaking, Ariel revived her spirits and gave Lei Xiao a standard breast-stroking salute: "On behalf of the people of Lengyan and all the soldiers of Lengyan in the three fortresses, thank you for your help!"

"You're welcome, it's just a matter of raising your hands."

Smiling lightly, Lei Xiao waved his hand slightly and said.

Immediately afterwards, Lei Xiao seemed to be inadvertently staring at Ariel's starry eyes and said: "However, even if the crisis is resolved this time, as the fifth princess of Leng Yan, you should understand better than anyone else that this is just Its just a battle to treat the symptoms but not the root cause.

"You're right, but that's all I can do."

Hearing the sound, Ariel recalled what happened in the capital, her starry eyes drooped, and a sense of powerlessness and frustration surged into her heart again.

Although she never said it, Ariel clearly understood it in her heart.

In her three brothers ~ she couldn't see a glimmer of hope for Leng Yan's future.

All she saw was the reckless killings in the capital, the frenzied destruction, and the desperate eyes of innocent civilians on the streets before they died.

The once prosperous royal capital has now become a **** battlefield for power.

But her father's exhortations, the royal family's maxims, and even the safety of the entire kingdom and its people had long been thrown out of the blue by her three brothers.

What makes Ariel even more uncomfortable is that she, who is weak, can't change anything about all of this.

On the contrary, because of Brother Wang's pursuit, she fled the capital in embarrassment, and was even forced to leave her seriously ill father.

"In your body, perhaps, there is another possibility."

Just when Ariel thought of this in despair.

On the other side, Lei Xiao's gentle and calm voice sounded again.
