Dane finally got the message.
Firmino is a capable person. In the most difficult time, he still held the dagger with his left hand and clutched his ribs that hurt from broken ribs. He stumbled out of the city of Cinderella, and then passed the spy's help. The secret method sent the news back to White Wolf Castle, and then the mages who stayed behind in the mage tower of White Wolf Castle passed the news to Joel through the power of spells.
Then, Dane's face was ashen.
He really didn't expect Kangli to be so decisive. Cinderella is the largest city in this barren land! Seriously, with a population of more than 100,000, I don't know how much tax and how many soldiers it can provide. In itself, it is another strong fortress, and the palace inside is not comparable to those great empires in the center of the human world in the West, but it is also second to none in the East.
Such a city, if it is destroyed, it will be destroyed? With a population of more than a hundred thousand, will it be slaughtered if it is said to be slaughtered
Using hundreds of thousands of human lives as sacrifices, the summoned demons...
This must be the biggest news in the world of Orienado in recent times. It can't be done—it's not that it can't be done, such a big matter will definitely cause the intervention of those organizations that claim to be righteous, such as the Holy See.
Of course, these things are still a bit far away for the time being. The power of the Holy See in the east is somewhat weak, and their temples are rarely seen here. Although the appearance of such a large demon will inevitably attract their strong attention, but in fact, those are not what Dane cares about.
Don't even think about it, with so many demons released, Dane is 100% sure that Conley's target must be himself and Ou Ze.
According to the last news from Firmino, there are at least tens of thousands of demons appearing in Cinderella. This is just the most conservative estimate. If you are unlucky, there may be more demons pouring out of that city.
It was too late to grieve for the people who died in Cinderella, and Dane felt that he was now facing a very severe test.
The facilities for the siege had already been built, and after getting the news, Dane immediately gathered all the troops and entered a state of preparation to participate in the battle at any time. However, he still hesitates in his heart.
Are you going to fight the Lost City? Is there any point in beating the Lost City
Now, in Dane's eyes, Governor Conley is no different from a red-eyed gambler. To destroy Cinderella, only a lunatic would do such a thing. But Dane didn't dare to speculate on a lunatic's thoughts. He didn't know what Conley would do next, just as he couldn't figure out where the summoned demon army would go.
But in fact, there is no need to find out, further news will come soon.
With such an important event happening to Cinderella, it is impossible to keep this news secret no matter what. Obviously, Conley didn't mean to act secretly. In fact, on December 11th, the day Dane got the news, he received further information.
Kangli's main force is heading south. He is leading an army of 5,000 people, with more than 10,000 demons, and is rushing southward. At the same time, a large number of demons did not appear in Kangli's army going south. According to intelligence, many demons scattered around after leaving the city of Cinderella, seemingly not organized at all.
Dane had a guess in his mind, but he didn't dare to confirm it, so he could only find a few spellcasters in his army.
After everyone shared the information, Joel, as a high-level mage, took the lead in giving his guess: "I think... Conley can't control so many demons."
"Oh?" Dane cheered up a little when he heard what he said: "Continue to talk about it."
"Demons are chaotic by nature. Unless there are high-level demons, or even monsters of the class of demon lords as commanders, they can condense into an army. If it is true that by sacrificing the entire population of Cinderella, a large number, quantity, or even There are tens of thousands of demons, I don't believe that Kang Li has the ability to control such a force. Not to mention, the main force of his Shadow Warlocks is still in the Northern Army, even if the Shadow Warlocks are all there, they can't control it Hold on to such a force."
"This can explain why the army that Kang Li really led to the south has only about 10,000 demons. It's not that he doesn't want to bring the other demons, but he can't move them at all."
"Those 10,000 demons heading south, don't think about it, they must be heading towards our territory in the south. But this doesn't mean that those scattered monsters don't need to be vigilant. On the contrary, if I were Conley, I would Even if we can't control the other demon armies, we will find a way to drive them to the north and toward us."
"Kangli's move is very vicious. The army in the south is going to copy our hometown. The disbandment of the army in the north must be a scam. If the main force in the north is still there, there will be more behind. The exorcised demons, we were suddenly plunged into despair."
Joel analyzed the current situation for Dane, and stopped talking. This high-level mage, who is not as strong as a mage, can do nothing more than that. He is not a very reliable military think tank.
But this is enough. Joel's analysis has made Dane understand the current situation somewhat, which is very helpful for him to make the next decision.
And he soon had an idea.
"Send a letter to Governor Oze to share with him the intelligence we received and our analysis, and hope that he can be ready to launch a general offensive against the Northern Army at any time!"
"Send a letter to General Verina, informing her that a large army is about to go south to attack our territory, and ask her to support it for as long as possible. I authorize her to use all the forces that can be used in the southern territory!"
"Now there is no time for us to think of a perfect plan. Listen to my order. The whole army gives up attacking Chaos City. Let's go east!"
When Dane speaks, no one will object to his opinion. He is a well-deserved commander in this army.
And what he meant was clearly revealed in the order—even if he wanted to save the old lair in the south, he probably would not have the ability or chance to save it. All chances of victory were placed with the northern army. on the decisive battle.
Let Verina stick to it. He himself knew that it would be difficult to achieve this order, so he could only hope that the woman could hold on for as long as possible. Dane, on the other hand, will use his own 5,000 troops, plus Governor Oze's nearly 30,000 troops, to defeat and eliminate the 40,000 soldiers of the Kangli Northern Army in the shortest possible time!
