Chapter 382: Brayney's Blocking Battle on the Grassland

The Plantagenet family developed the agricultural area of ​​the castle.

Aria waved her hand casually.

The knights she summoned cut a demon wolf into two pieces.

This orange-quality monster leader was killed in front of her without even blocking a move.

After killing the demon wolf, Aria picked up the demon wolf's body and found half of its leg bone.

This is the material produced by the monster.

In the foggy world.

The probability of directly producing equipment in a wild monster nest is very low.

Most of them are various materials.

To produce equipment, you have to attack the nests of sub-human civilization monsters such as goblins and jackals.

But compared to ordinary monster nests.

The monster nests of the sub-human civilization in the old continent are often concentrated in tribes.

A sub-human civilization nest belongs to a tribe.

Many nests of various colors will form around the tribe.

Attacking one will immediately attract a bunch of monsters.

And it is easy for monster lords to be born in such tribal monster nests.

It is extremely difficult to attack.

However, the monster nest that Aria attacked was a pure wolf nest.

There was no tribe.

This is because this area was the direct jurisdiction of the Plantagenet family to open up the castle in the old continent.

That is, after the fog invaded, the agricultural area turned into a resource territory.

Source crystals were born in the resource territory, and then monster nests appeared.

At this time.

Aria, who picked up the wolf leg bone, looked at the material.

He quickly made an accurate judgment.

"Monster materials can be used to forge high-level weapons."

"It's a good harvest."

"But the only units under the lord who can forge are the gray dwarves in Blackwater City."

"These gray dwarves are not suitable for heroic commanders."

"It's a waste to use high-level materials to forge them."

"It seems that it can only be thrown into the warehouse to collect dust like the previous spoils of war."

Aria put away the magic wolf leg bone with some regret.

The reason for regret is that if this kind of monster material is handed over to high-level craftsmen for production.

But it can make high-level magic weapons.

Now it can only be stored in the warehouse or sold, so she naturally feels sorry for Fang Yuan.

And at this time.

As Aria killed the highest-level magic wolf leader in the agricultural area.

The Guardian Knights behind him began to attack the magic wolf's nest.

With Aria as the leader.

The combat effectiveness of the Guardian Knights is extremely strong.

It has become the second most powerful knight legion under Fang Yuan.

With the rumbling sound of the warhorses charging,

the orange magic wolf legion gathered in front of the magic wolf's nest was easily cut like butter.

Then the Guardian Knights were divided into two.

A turn on the battlefield, the panicked magic wolf legion was caught.

On the battlefield.

The warhorses roared.

With each charge, thousands of magic wolves were killed.

At the same time.

With the large number of magic wolves outside dying in battle.

The source crystals in the magic wolf's nest are also constantly producing new magic wolves and even mutant magic wolves to protect the nest.

But they are facing the Guardian Knights with high fighting spirit.

These mutant magic wolves are enough to be regarded as a great threat by the eighth-level lords.

At this moment, in front of the Guardian Knights.

They were easily killed.

When there were no more groups of magic wolves in front of the magic wolf's nest.

A dozen guardian knights jumped off their horses, rushed into the wolf's lair, and found the source crystal inside.

The guardian knight drew out his greatsword.

He swung it hard dozens of times.

After a while.

The huge orange source crystal turned into piles of fragments.

Among these fragments, there was also a part of the completed orange source crystal.

The guardian knight picked up all the source crystals and source crystal fragments.

Then he quickly left the lair.

The wolf's lair that lost the source crystal began to collapse.

After a while.

This wolf's lair that occupied the entire agricultural area was shattered.

It turned directly into a pool of mud fragments.

At this time, the agricultural area also revealed its original appearance.

Uniform farmland and farmhouses.

At the same time

Along with the collapse of the wolf's lair.

At the edge of the battlefield, some of the wolves that had not yet died began to flee in all directions.

These fleeing wolves should have been hunted down to the end.

Because after they escape, they can quickly regroup into a new magic wolf tribe.

And they have the memory of the war, once their strength is restored.

They will organize the magic wolf army to counterattack.

When the Blue Star Lord first opened up, he suffered this loss.

The monsters that were let go returned with a tide of beasts three years later.

Directly destroyed an entire alliance.

When in the Wasteland Territory.

Fang Yuan had told his heroes more than once.

Attack monster nests in the wild, not a single one should be spared.

It is necessary to cut the grass and root it out.

But at this time!

Aria watched these magic wolves escape, and did not order the guardian knights to chase and kill them.

The reason why she did this.

Because before cleaning up this place.

Aria deployed a large group of guardian knights around, just to catch all the magic wolves in one fell swoop.

These magic wolves!

None of them can escape.

And the facts proved that Aria was right.

Soon.

The guardian knights responsible for intercepting the fleeing magic wolves came on horseback.

"Sir."

"All the fleeing wolves were killed."

"No one survived."

"This wolf lair is the last one."

"With this place breached."

"Has the Plantagenet Fortress been completely recaptured by us?"

The voice of the guardian knight who reported was filled with a hint of excitement.

But Aria shook his head.

"It's both right and wrong."

"It's wrong because the Plantagenet Fortress is huge. Taking down the outer castle is only the main part. During the heyday of the Plantagenet Fortress, the outer guard walls were all over the border."

"The area enclosed by the guard walls is ten times larger than the duchy of the Plantagenet family in Gondor."

"Thousands of knight lords are enfeoffed in it."

"These knight lords were once the source of troops for the Plantagenet family to open up the grassland."

"The territory we have taken now is less than one-tenth of the heyday."

But soon, Aria changed his tone.

"But you are right. The main part of the Plantagenet Fortress has been recovered."

"The main castle, inner castle, outer castle and the most core part of the guard wall are all under our command."

"This is actually the core part of the Plantagenet Fortress."

"After all, when I left the Plantagenet Fortress for the dungeon in the old world, this was all that was left."

Aria recounted the past, with a hint of loneliness in his words.

The guardian knight beside him seemed to feel this emotion.

He lowered his head unconsciously.

But Aria adjusted his emotions quickly.

Just now, he just remembered some of the past.

"Memories always make people sad."

Aria said softly.

"But what is gone is gone forever."

"Civilization has been destroyed, and there is no point in saying this."

"We still have to focus on the present and fight for the Wasteland Territory."

Aria changed his tone and began to issue his own orders.

"The fortress of the Plantagenet family has been taken now."

"Send someone back to the main city where the Lord is."

"Tell the Lord."

"The main part of the fortress has been completely occupied."

"You can upgrade the fortress."

"And tell the Lord, be quick!"

"It is best to upgrade the fortress within one day."

"The orc army has entered the Mirkwood."

"Now the fortress is not only our base for counterattack against the orcs to replenish troops."

"We must also stop the orcs from going deep into the Mirkwood to prevent them from finding the road to the main city."

"The second one is more important than the first one."

"The Lord must be urged to complete the upgrade as soon as possible."

"Yes!"

As the messenger returned to the main city and left.

Aria asked again.

"How is Blayney?"

Originally, the task of retaking the Plantagenet family fortress was completed by Aria and Blayney together.

But after they came here from the main city.

Soon it was discovered that the orcs on the grassland had sent a legion of 30,000 to march towards Mirkwood.

According to the intelligence sent by the scout soldiers.

The goal of this orc army's march was very clear.

It was heading for the Plantagenet Fortress in Mirkwood.

At this time, it would take some time to recapture the fortress.

Once the orc army entered Mirkwood, they would inevitably be affected by their own plan to recapture the fortress.

The orcs would definitely attack them.

And this would definitely delay the progress of recapture the fortress.

In order to ensure that the fortress could be recaptured in the shortest time.

After Aria discussed with Brenni.

It was decided to divide the troops!

The stronger Aria led the Guardian Knight Corps to quickly clear the monsters in various areas of the pioneer territory.

Complete the occupation of the Plantagenet Fortress.

Brenni led the Demon Knight Corps to block the orcs who tried to enter Mirkwood.

Delay their marching speed.

To ensure the safety of the Demon Knight Corps.

They also received support from the Blood Castle.

Christian made an offensive gesture there.

Attract the main force of the orcs to the vicinity of the castle.

At the same time, Yasis was sent to lead the griffin knights and dragon hunters as air support to assist in the battle.

To prevent Blayney's Demon Knights from being surrounded by the main force of the orcs.

At this time, more than half of the day has passed.

Analyze from the time.

Now Blayney has either defeated the orc corps preparing to enter the forest, or been defeated.

But there is no news yet.

Aria is not clear about the situation there for the time being.

And the Plantagenet Fortress has just been occupied.

Now we have to wait for a while until the lord completes the upgrade.

Aria can leave.

Because if we lead troops to support Blayney now.

Once the orcs invade, they will take away the outer fort or the core warning wall that has just been occupied.

Then it will take time and manpower to retake it.

In this repeated struggle.

The orcs can easily see the strategic role of the Plantagenet Fortress.

At that time, in order to cut off the defense of the fortress and the Bloodline Castle,

they will inevitably send more troops to support.

In this way,

the two sides can easily fall into repeated tug-of-war.

The tug-of-war consumes troops, and the most critical point is that

when the fortress is not completely occupied.

it is difficult to cover the passage from the grassland to the dark forest.

With the huge number of orc legions, they can completely send legions that are good at reconnaissance to find the way to the Wasteland Territory.

Thus, the war will be led from the grassland to the forest, or even the main territory of the Wasteland Territory.

At that time, the orc army will have many soldiers.

But there are few soldiers on their side.

The orcs can choose to fight on two or even three sides.

Launch attacks on the Bloodline Castle, the Plantagenet Development Territory, and the Wasteland Territory respectively.

The Bloodline Castle will lose its ability to attack because there is no side cover.

They can only choose to defend the city.

The Plantagenet Frontier Territory only has the main castle, which cannot be upgraded, so it cannot produce troops to replenish the consumption nearby.

If it cannot replenish nearby, it means that in the war of attrition, the troops on our side will inevitably fall into disadvantage.

The front line dare not fight the enemy in a war of attrition.

The momentum is at a disadvantage.

If the Wasteland Territory is attacked, the problem will be even more serious.

With the cautious character of the lord, in order to protect the main city, it is very likely that he will directly order a retreat, abandon the outer territory, and defend the main city.

No matter which of the above three situations occurs.

It means that our side will lose the initiative to attack.

After the orcs have the initiative to attack.

They can choose to attack the Blood Castle fiercely, or they can choose to use the Plantagenet Family's fortress as the main battlefield.

Burn the war from the outside to the inside.

Our side will immediately fall into disadvantage.

So at this critical moment.

Aria must first send troops to defend the territory that has been captured.

As long as we can wait until the Lord upgrades the Plantagenet Fortress.

Then the situation on this battlefield will be activated.

With the Plantagenet Fortress, not only does the Bloodline Castle have a defensive support point, but it can also be supported from the land and teleportation array at any time. .

Even the entire boundary between the Dark Forest and the Grassland can become a point of active attack.

This means that we have the initiative in the war.

I can attack wherever I want and whenever I want.

Even if the orcs have an army of nearly 500,000.

They can only shrink their forces and evacuate the junction of the grassland and the forest.

In this way, the safety of the side of the Bloodline Castle can be guaranteed without spending a single soldier.

The Bloodline Castle can also put the defensive side of the side into the front battlefield and the battlefield behind the enemy.

At the same time, there is the outer warning wall of the Plantagenet Fortress.

It is enough to block the passage from the Dark Forest to the Wasteland Territory.

At that time, as long as the guard formation is opened,

Even if the orcs sent Behemoth to attack, they could only retreat in the face of the protective formation.

And this ensures the safety of the Wasteland Territory.

As long as the main territory is safe.

Then the Lord can mobilize all forces to support the war on the front line.

So.

The key turning point in the war against the orcs is the Plantagenet Fortress.

Hold it and wait until the Lord completes the upgrade.

The entire battlefield in the east can be transformed from strategic defense to strategic offense.

At this moment.

Aria's eyes passed through the jungle.

Looking at the junction of the dense forest and the grassland.

That is the blocking point chosen by Blayney.

She said softly.

"Blayney!"

"Everything depends on you and the Demon Knights."

Just when Aria was worried about Brenni.

At this moment.

At the junction of the grassland and the forest.

Brenni and Asis chose the battlefield for the blocking.

The war has entered the final decisive moment.

The victory or defeat is only a matter of seconds.
