Chapter 2082 Calculation
To the east of the main city of the Dolemite Empire, an army is heading towards the main city. Of course, they are the troops of the Third Legion of the Dolemite Empire.
Marshal Milliens, the head of the legion, now has a sad expression on his face, because the current situation is really bad, and it can't be worse. A few days ago, of course, he also received information that the navy had come up with a new move to attack other continents. To be honest, this matter had nothing to do with him, because the Third Army was stationed in the east of the empire and the devils. Other things basically have nothing to do with them, so even if the navy conquers the territories of other continents, attacking and expanding the territory is just sending the first and second legions there, and it is impossible for him to leave the east.
But what he didn't expect was that the subsequent development was simply unimaginable. First of all, the navy was defeated. He could accept this, and he was even a little happy. But the news I received immediately was that the main city had fallen? Miles said that if it hadn't been for His Royal Highness the Third Prince who told him the news, he really wouldn't believe it. What is the situation and where did the enemy come from?
No matter how unbelievable it is, the news was finally confirmed. The country's capital was occupied by the enemy, of course he was anxious, and he didn't care about the navy or army at this time. The first reaction of Marshal Milliens was to rush back to rescue them, after all, they were the closest to the main city.
But the problem is that it's not that easy, what should I do if I go to the eastern border by myself? It is absolutely impossible for the demons to watch you go. It is estimated that the demons will receive this news soon, so...
Marshal Milliens calmed down and thought about it. First, he heard that the opponent's troops were not many. Furthermore, he heard from the third prince that the eldest prince, Vilante, had already gone to the First and Second Legion for help, so he only needed to continue to defend the troops in the east. Demons, if they don't give them a chance, they will be loyal to the country.
Unexpectedly, more exaggerated news appeared. Only one day later, a thunderbolt came from the north. The 200,000 coalition troops of the First and Second Legions were suddenly attacked by the enemy, and the 200,000 troops were directly dispersed. The Marshal of the Legion was killed, and both the Marshal of the First Legion and Prince Vilant were taken prisoner.
When Marshal Milliens saw the news, his heart collapsed. This is too exaggerated, it is unbelievable. The news I saw said that the opponent's army had a total of 30,000 troops, and they defeated their 200,000 troops, and then captured the First Prince alive? This is simply unacceptable.
But in the end, all the news was confirmed one by one, and Marshal Milliens was in a hurry. The emperor was arrested, the main city was captured, the coalition forces were defeated, and the crown prince was taken prisoner. What's the use of guarding the border now? Marshal Milliens thought about it, and rushed back to rescue no matter what.
So Marshal Milliens did something he would never have done before, which was to negotiate with the demons. Yes, the human race and the demon race are mortal enemies, and both sides wish the other party would die sooner. Marshal Milliens never thought that he would have a day to negotiate with the demon race.
Just have to talk now.
Negotiations were very hard. Marshal Milliens almost accepted an unimaginable condition. This almost gave up the entire eastern part of the empire to the demons. All of them were handed over to the demons so easily, Marshal Milaines was bleeding, but there was no way, after all, the emperor was gone, the main city was gone, and the empire would perish if things went on like this.
It is discussed here that Marshal Milliens will dispatch troops immediately, but the demons are not so easy to dismiss. Yes, the demons also received some news at the time that the main city of the Dolemite Empire seemed to be occupied by troops from another continent, but they have not received the news of the defeat of the first and second legions, but looking at The Third Legion was about to return to defense, and the Demon Race certainly felt a little strange, not to mention that the other party really agreed to their harsh request.
The head of the Demon Army is Marshal Edhillian, a very smart marshal, not easy to deceive. Seeing the reaction of the human army, he probably knew what was going on. First, he agreed to the conditions of the human army on the surface, but when he saw the human army retreating, he followed directly behind, saying that he was collecting land, but in fact he was looking at what else he had. It's cheap. After all, the treaty was torn up as soon as it was said, and of course Edhillian knew the reason to kill him while he was sick, so how could he let this opportunity pass.
Of course, Miles knew that his old opponent was not easy to fool, and he also knew what the other party saw, but he had no choice but to retreat. So it was unexpectedly careful, instead of rushing to the main city with all its strength, it collected information from the main city while guarding against the demon army behind it.
Judging from the current information, the situation in the main city is still... relatively good, because the opponent actually only has 30,000 troops, and it seems that they have no intention of increasing their troops so far. I don't know what the situation is. But the opponent is indeed preparing to defend. It seems that a fighter is inevitable, but after all, he still has 100,000 people, so he still has an advantage in numbers.
The demons in the back are really in trouble. Miles feels that the other party may have received the news of the destruction of the first and second legions on his side, and they have been following him more and more closely recently. This is not good in any way.
"It's better to deal with the troops in the main city first. The demons behind have to find a way." Miles said.
"Legion Commander, what if the demon troops attack us?" asked the adjutant next to him.
"Impossible, Edhillian is a smart man. Even if he wants to attack us, he will wait until we fight the troops in the main city to the death and then come to reap the benefits, so it is impossible to attack us now." Lyons immediately said, "So we can't attack the troops in the main city right now. We must think of a complete solution. Otherwise, even if we really defeat the troops in the main city, we will be attacked by the demon troops immediately."
"Damn demons!" The adjutant next to him also said angrily, "Why don't we fight the demons first? The other party will definitely not think that we will turn around and attack them again."
"No... others may not think of it, but Edhillian must be on guard." Miles thought for a while and said.
"This... what should we do?" The adjutant was also very anxious.
"Now that we're very close to the main city, I'm worried that the soldiers in the main city might attack the camp at night." Miles said after thinking for a while.
"What, how could the opponent only have 30,000 people..." The adjutant couldn't continue speaking halfway through. Yes, the First and Second Army probably thought so too, so they were attacked at night, and then collapsed , Marshal Milliens must have thought of this before he said that. The adjutant nodded and immediately said, "I'll put the soldiers on guard immediately."
"Yeah." Miles nodded. He hasn't figured out what to do, but today is definitely not suitable for attacking. The soldiers are really tired after a long day's journey. They are going to take turns to watch the night.
The preparations for Miles were also very sufficient, but something unexpected happened. In the middle of the night, the siren of the barracks suddenly sounded, and Miles also quickly jumped out of bed. He got up, put on his armor and walked out of the tent, and there was chaos outside.
"Marshal, it's not good, someone attacked the camp." A soldier came over and reported.
"I know, didn't I tell you to be on alert, what's going on, why is it still in such a mess?" Miles said angrily.
"Marshal, we are prepared, but what is attacking us now is not the troops from the main city, but the demon troops behind us." The soldier said immediately.
"What?" Milliens was stunned. This is impossible. Why are the demons attacking him now? Is this good for them? I have an army of 100,000 people here, even if they make a surprise attack, they will lose a lot, why don't I wait for myself and the troops in the main city to fight a few waves first to consume them? Take ten thousand steps back and say that even if the demons' attack was very successful and wiped out all their troops, what about the troops in the main city? Are they going to attack the main city again? So back to the previous question, why don't you wait for yourself to attack the main city first, consume the soldiers and city defenses in the main city, and then attack yourself? It doesn't make any sense.
"Could it be...they are allied with the forces in the main city?" Miles suddenly thought of this, but quickly shook his head, "It's impossible, how could they be allied with forces from another continent, let alone the forces inside? The army is also the army of the human race, how could they be allied with the demon race..."
Miles really didn't quite understand what was going on, but now was not the time for him to think too much. The surprise attack of the demons was quite successful, so he had to direct the defense immediately. So Miles first suppressed a series of questions, and hurriedly commanded the troops to resist.
On the other side, in the headquarters of the demons, Li Huailin actually stood beside the commander of the demons, Ed Hillian, watching the battle between the demon army and the human army.
"It seems to be pretty good." Li Huailin said with a smile, "Marshal Edhillian, your soldiers are not bad."
"..." Edhillian didn't speak. He is very angry now, but there is nothing he can do. This guy who appeared suddenly is obviously going to consume his soldiers, but he has nothing to do, because he has already learned from Duke Valtory. Knowing the current situation, after a while of thinking, he chose to join Li Huailin.
"Don't worry, Marshal Edhillian, I won't let your soldiers die too much." Li Huailin said with a smile, "After all, they are still useful."
