When the smoke cleared and the fire went out, Grant, who had just endured a tragic war, was immersed in grief and sorrow.
At this moment, a few sporadic airships finally appeared in the sky. These belated airships were hovering in the sky, as if they were mourning Grant's misfortune.
The ground was wet everywhere, the soot and ashes mixed into a muddy mess.
There are ruins everywhere, and the narrow alleys have long been blocked by collapsed debris.
At a glance, there were houses without roofs everywhere, and the roofs had already been lifted into the air by the violent explosions.
Although the fire has been extinguished, there are still wisps of green smoke rising into the sky, especially the towering city in the clouds. Countless wisps of green smoke are intertwined together, as if a huge vine is crawling around the huge city. On top of the cliff.
The city in the clouds that was once so bright and clean is now covered with black marks everywhere, as well as scattered stones and bricks that fall down from time to time.
The neatly stacked houses and streets were also covered by bricks and rubble at this moment, especially the northeast side of the Cloud City, which was where the frontal attack was.
The explosions and fires turned almost everything here into ruins. There was not even a complete house or a standing wall. There were debris everywhere. Even the rocks that supported those houses and streets collapsed in large parts. Come down.
The collapsed cliff was exposed like a conspicuous scar, as if to tell everyone that the City in the Clouds had just suffered a terrible blow.
On the contrary, the thick "wall", the circular fortification known as the City of Earth, the huge and independent blocks in a circle, survived this disaster, although the City of Earth also had several There are gaps in the road collapse and collapse, but compared to those neighborhoods that were completely reduced to ruins, the City of Earth can obviously be said to be intact.
According to Cecelia's order, the Montita people living in Grant City left their homes one after another.
Most of them were injured, with solemn and sad expressions on their faces. They looked panicked and even many of them kept looking up at the sky, as if they were afraid that the Kaoqi aerial fleet would come again. One coming.
The improvised search team crawled hard on top of the ruins, searching for every person trapped under the ruins.
The most hardworking and busy people at this moment were the clergy. Outside the city, the wounded were neatly lined up, waiting for their treatment.
Many of these wounded were already dying, while others had lost their hands, legs and feet. The tragic scene made everyone who saw it feel sad.
However, except for the cry of Gangge's newborn baby, no one else could be heard crying on the grassland.
Although grief covered the faces of all Montita people, no one made a cry.
This is the Montita people, a nation that has withstood countless storms and destruction and still stands on this grassland.
This sudden attack was undoubtedly a terrible disaster for them, but, as in the past, such a disaster was not enough to knock them down completely.
…
In the Kingdom of Kaoqi, on top of the clouds, Hageelo was leisurely looking at the thick clouds outside the porthole. At this moment, his heart was extremely comfortable, because not only had he successfully completed an adventure again, but he almost The most valuable property of the Kaoqi Kingdom was brought back intact.
He knew very well the value of the air fleet he led at this moment.
It is not blocked by any terrain at all, does not care about the influence of climate and bad weather, can easily break through any extremely solid defense line, and can move thousands of kilometers in a day. All of these are weapons that military strategists of all ages have dreamed of.
At this moment, such a corps was in his hands, and this feeling alone made Hagrid intoxicated.
Compared with this feeling of pride, the joy of victory ranks behind.
However, Haguero was obviously not the kind of person who was dazzled by victory. He had already begun to think about every subsequent strategy.
He was convinced that after the Montita people withstood this blow, even if they did not collapse completely, their strength would definitely be greatly weakened. Even if their air battleships were not completely destroyed in this raid, they would definitely suffer heavy losses.
At this moment, the balance of victory is tilted towards the Kaoqi Kingdom. If the Montita people are given several fatal blows in succession at this moment, the Montita people will definitely collapse.
However, Haguero also thought of the potential biggest threat. If the Kingdom of Sophie launched an attack from the rear, Kaoqi would face a terrible situation of fighting on two fronts.
What's more, there is the Kingdom of Laiding watching eagerly from the side. This enemy who is most likely to destroy Kaoqi has always been a huge stone that weighs on the hearts of every Kaoqi king and commander.
Hagrid's mind kept thinking about how to face the worst predicament.
He really hopes to make a surprise attack on Sophie or Canelio like this time.
However, this is obviously too risky a move. The Kingdom of Sophie has a large number of magicians, and the number of magicians above the median level alone already exceeds the air fleet he owns.
Although the Kingdom of Leiding does not have so many magicians, it is simply impossible to sneak into its hinterland as unnoticed as this time.
In that kingdom, almost every inch of land is shrouded by magic detection devices. Once the air fleet under his command enters the territory of the Kingdom of Leiding, it must be on guard against attacks from the other party at any time.
This feeling is almost as bad as being an enemy of Milinda. Because of this, Hegeelo has always regarded the Kingdom of Leiding as his most troublesome enemy.
Just as Hagero was lying on the narrow and simple desk writing his next action plan, the priest's voice came from the front: "Your Majesty, Vedsk is already in front of you, we finally Return home safely.”
There was a burst of cheers immediately in the cabin, and it was obvious that the subordinates were filled with joy and excitement at being able to return safely.
The priest waited until everyone's excitement gradually subsided, and then slowly said: "His Majesty the Emperor and the Prime Minister have conveyed news of celebration to you. They welcome your heroic triumph and are very surprised by your victory. I am delighted, this is obviously the most perfect raid in history, this battle will be recorded in the annals of war forever, and will serve as a model for future generations of generals to learn from."
The congratulations of His Majesty the Emperor and the Prime Minister conveyed by the priest once again aroused cheers from everyone in the cabin, but Hegeiro himself was calm about all this, because he had already expected such an ending.
This raid is undoubtedly the biggest gamble he has ever made, and there are only two outcomes for this gamble, either a complete victory and returning to Vedsk with incomparable glory and being praised as an immortal hero by the world, or a disastrous defeat. Throw the bones on the Montita grassland and take up the last hope of survival for the entire Kaoqi Kingdom.
Haguero knew very well that he just won a big gamble by luck.
With a deep sense of weariness, Hagero looked out the window, watching the aerial warships get into the thick clouds, watching the thick clouds become darker and darker, and finally blocked all the light outside. Watching the battleship emerge from the clouds again, the earth appeared before his eyes.
The scenery above the ground became larger and clearer, and the number of houses on both sides of the road gradually increased. A small town could be vaguely seen ahead, which was on the edge of Vedsk.
Just like when it set off, the huge air fleet slowly passed over Vedsk.
But this time Hegeero didn't play the same boring tricks as when he set out. At this moment, he no longer needed to inspire and motivate the residents of Vedsk in surprising numbers.
The victory he just won has tilted the balance of victory towards the Kingdom of Kaoqi. All he needs to do now is just to win a few more victories.
And this is obviously not difficult for the current Kaoqi Kingdom.
After passing over Vedsk at a very low altitude and once again attracting cheers, the huge fleet sailed towards the docked "harbour" - the huge valley in the mountains.
Just after jumping off the battleship, the adjutant was already standing in front of Hegeero with His Majesty the Emperor's envoy.
"His Majesty is very pleased with the Duke's victory. He ordered me to pay you the highest respect. The celebration ceremony has been prepared for you. You are the hero of the Kaoqi Kingdom."
Haigero had no interest in listening to the chatter of the palace guard. He believed that these words must have come from a certain palace steward. Horkels III would at most shrug his shoulders and say something to him. : "Thank you for your hard work. Looking at your disgraced look, you are worthy of the title of Son of the Sun."
After sending the palace attendants away, Hagrid boarded his carriage. This was a brand new carriage. He had carefully collected the original one because he had left the most beautiful things on that carriage. At the same time, It is also the memory that is the source of all pain.
The news of victory has obviously not spread among the common people. The streets of Vedsk are still deserted, and even horse-drawn carriages appear to be so rare.
Looking at the desolate and lonely scene in front of him, Hegeero had even forgotten the prosperous days when there were lots of traffic and crowds of people.
The prosperity of the past was gone forever, and suddenly Haguero's original excitement due to victory was replaced by deep melancholy.
With this melancholy, Hagero came to the palace, only this place was still as prosperous as before.
At least the illusory and gorgeous appearance that appeared above the level was not much reduced from its former heyday, but Hegeiro knew very well that in fact the palace was already empty.
Both the empress dowager and the empress dowager all moved away, along with many palace attendants.
At this moment, most of the palace attendants standing in the aisles at the entrance of the palace to welcome him were holy knights in gorgeous attire, serving as temporary decorations for the celebration ceremony.
Although the prosperity of the past no longer exists, Hagriro still feels a little satisfied.
His face was filled with a winner's smile, and he walked on the red carpet in the center with the most standard steps.
At the end of the carpet stood the emperor and the emperor of the Kaoqi Kingdom. Haguero had always had some complaints about this strange pair, but at this moment he had to maintain due courtesy.
"I'm glad to see you back. I originally thought the Montitas would bite off your tail." His Majesty spoke first.
"It's an honor to hear your compliments. Fortunately, the Montita people are obviously not interested in chasing other people's butts." Hegeello said in the same tit-for-tat manner.
"The spy lurking in the City in the Clouds is quite powerful. He actually successfully completed that almost impossible mission." Milinda continued to mock, obviously she did not intend to admit what Hagriro had achieved. score.
"Each of us has completed an almost impossible mission, especially to have your noble Majesty stand at the entrance of the palace to welcome me. I don't know if I will have such an honor in the future." Haguero countered.
The Emperor next to him had long been accustomed to the tit-for-tat taunts between these two guys. He stood there quietly waiting for the end of the battle.
Fortunately, the opposing parties obviously did not forget their mission. On the premise of each taking a step back, Hegeello and Milinda finally calmed down.
Obviously this also means the beginning of the celebration, but at this moment the proud and domineering ladies and ladies of the past can no longer be seen among the crowd attending the celebration. Most of the people attending the celebration are Vedsk officials and generals in the army.
Most of them were not qualified to enter here at all in the past, let alone chat and laugh with the emperor at the palace banquet.
War, at least for these people at this moment, is not a bad thing.
However, Haguero was not interested in this shrunken celebration or this attempt to impose respectability at all. He walked indifferently among the officials and generals, ignoring the flattering words. For him, no matter what Such scenery and glory can no longer make him feel happy and happy.
The ostentatious and grand scene even made him feel a chill, because it involuntarily reminded him of the scene at the engagement ceremony. It was the most glorious time in his life, and it was also the saddest and saddest time in his life. moment.
Hagrid waved away the shadows of the past and turned his mind back to this war.
Inviting His Majesty the Emperor to the small living room nearby, Haguero took out the plan he had just written on the aerial battleship.
At this moment, besides him and Horkels III, there were only Milinda and her brother in the small living room.
These four close friends in the past have now become important figures who can decide Kaoqi's fate.
Horkels III looked at the plan carefully. In fact, the plan was what he had expected. The only thing he lacked was the details, and this is what Hagriro is good at. matter.
However, Horkels III also prepared another completely different plan, and now he hopes to proceed according to the other plan.
After reading Hegeelo's draft plan, he gently placed the document in his hand on the table. After a while, he sighed and said: "Hageello, have you ever thought about using diplomatic means?" Means to temporarily obtain peace? Maybe now we have enough bargaining chips in our hands to take the initiative in negotiations."
Haguero didn't think anything of what His Majesty the Emperor said at all. He said coldly: "Are you sure that those Montita people will sit at the negotiating table obediently? Don't forget that they started the war in the first place. , used suicide attacks to make the residents of Vedsk live in fear all day long. They also raided the Port of Start and reduced the port and the nearly 100,000 residents living there to ashes. Montita Human beings are simply a kind of people without faith.”
Prime Minister Somyret, Hegeello's staunch ally, also said quickly: "Yes! I also don't agree with the peace plan. We can't guarantee that the Montita people will not take revenge on us. I I don’t want to see Vedsk swallowed up by fire and smoke like that prairie city. If we have a strict magic monitoring system like the Kingdom of Leiding, I don’t care at all about giving peace to the Montita people, but It is a pity that at this moment we simply do not have such strength, let alone the qualification to ask for peace."
"Drekes has already set up a monitoring magic circle near Grant, which can give us warnings of large-scale movements by the Montitas. As long as the Montitas dispatch a large number of air battleships, we will have enough time to arrange A good way to deal with it.”
"This long-distance attack by Haguero is undoubtedly an adventure with a very small success rate. So for the Montita people, if they want to take revenge, they will also have to take huge risks. If their actions are in our hands, In your hands, Hegeello, if you have this exact news, what kind of welcome will you give to those Montita people?"
"Just like the Kaoqi Kingdom cannot afford to lose its air fleet, if the same destruction befalls the Montita people, will they be unable to recover?"
His Majesty the Emperor said happily.
Hagrid and Somyret looked at each other, and both of them frowned.
In fact, this is what they are most worried about, that is, Horkels III will suddenly choose to stop attacking.
Obviously, these former friends knew very well about this old friend's hesitation and vacillation. They had already regarded this matter as the key to hindering Kaoqi's victory. They chose to abandon Hokol at the beginning. Si III is also really for this reason.
Seeing that his past worries had become a reality, Hegeiro first felt impatient. If it were in the past, he would have stood up and turned away, and then ordered his troops to prepare to attack his enemies.
But now everything is firmly in the hands of His Majesty the Emperor.
Without his orders, even if the soldiers are willing to obey his orders, the power of the air battleship lies in the magicians who allow it to fly in the air, and those who abandon the explosive flames and make the arrows loaded with explosive bombs miss and shoot one kilometer. members of the Magic Corps.
But these two keys are firmly in the hands of Horkels III and his strange wife.
Hagrid felt that he was full of strength but could not use it at all.
The same dilemma was also revealed in Somilet's heart. He frowned and thought hard. Although he did not know much about military matters like the Emperor, he at least knew one thing, that is, at this moment The Montita Kingdom is not at the end of its rope, and this grassland country possesses unusual tenacity and tenacity.
Once these grassland people are allowed to recuperate, it is difficult to predict how strongly they will fight back.
"How many aerial warships do the Montitas have now? How many warships are needed to attack Kaochi and destroy a medium-sized or above city? How long does it take to build such a number of warships? And do we have the ability? , so that the Montita people will never be able to recover the number of air battleships?" Milinda next to her obviously noticed this deadlock, and she said leisurely.
Hagrid thought for a moment and already understood what Milinda meant. Compared with his plan, Milinda's plan was obviously much milder.
"I can be sure that all the air battleships parked on the City in the Clouds have been destroyed by me. These air battleships were originally the targets of my greatest concern. I even concentrated all my attack power, and even the mountain cliff was blown apart by me. Collapse, since I started attacking, I have never seen the Montita people's air battleships intercept us. Considering that the Montita people do not have a large number of cities, the air battleships parked in the city in the clouds are probably The mainstay of their fleet.”
"The Montitas have thousands of warships. During the battle of Stat Harbor, they were attacked by me and lost a squadron of nearly 700 warships. If my estimate is not wrong, I am afraid they will still have more warships." There are more than three hundred warships." Hegeiro said slowly.
"Can you confirm the exact number of battleships owned by the Montita people?" Somyret asked.
"Just launching a few feint attacks will be enough to get the information you need." Haguero said.
"With the attack power and scale of the Montita people's warships, although more than three hundred warships are not enough to completely destroy a city, their attacks can cause a city to suffer heavy damage, even a huge city like Vedsk , and it will be difficult to withstand such a heavy blow." Haguero warned.
"If we knew that the Montita people's fleet was gathering and dispatching, would we have enough strength to intercept them?" Horkels III asked.
"If I can determine which target the Montita people's fleet wants to destroy, I am absolutely sure that they will never come back." Haguero said with unusual certainty.
"You don't need to worry about this matter. If the Montita people want to retaliate, they can only choose two targets." Milinda glanced at the gradually dimming sky outside the window, sighed softly and said: "One of them is here, Vedsk, the capital of Kaoqi. Only by venting their anger here can those Montita people feel the satisfaction of revenge."
At this point, Milinda paused. She stared at Haguero with a smile and said: "There is another target that is your territory. You are undoubtedly the most hated object of the Montita people, and Kashina is more powerful than Wei. Desk is much closer to the Montita Grassland. Your city is smaller and the roads are narrower, but the population is not much smaller than Vedsk. This is obviously the best target."
"I am quite willing to use my territory as bait. If I can completely cut off the 'sharp scimitar' of the Montita people, I am willing to bear any loss." Haguero said calmly.
"Although it is your territory, it is also Kaoqi's territory after all. I don't want Kashina to suffer any losses. I would rather see the Montita people's fleet intercepted and destroyed outside the city. Just ask De Rekes just set up a few magic circles. Although we cannot make every inch of the Kaoqi Kingdom under strict surveillance, it is easy to protect the two cities." Horkels III slowly said said.
"However, I don't like this passive way of fighting. Even if I am not allowed to risk attacking the distant Grant City again, I still have enough freedom to cut off the connection between the Kingdom of Leiding and the Montita Grassland. The artery that continuously delivers fresh blood to the Kingdom of Montita is obviously a top priority," Haguero argued.
Horkels III did not stop Hegeello's request. In fact, the existence of that "major artery" also made him worried.
"If you can promise me one condition, I can allow you to launch an attack, that is, never provoke the Kingdom of Leiding. At this moment, I don't want to see a challenge from the northern border." Horkels III said solemnly. said.
"I also don't intend to subject myself to flanking attacks and sieges from three sides. I don't even intend to attack ships laden with cargo traveling in the strait. The land passages and warehouses filled with cargo are enough to become my targets." Hagriro said with a smile.
"You'd better not get too carried away. If the Montitas concentrate their efforts to annihilate your fleet, it will be a heavy price that we can't bear." Milinda said in a mocking tone.
"I have already considered it. I plan to divide the existing fleet of the Kaoqi Kingdom into three parts. Each part is composed of a hundred air battleships. Such a fleet is enough to withstand the number of battleships of a squadron of Montita people. ." Hegeello said.
"Spread your troops to give others a chance to defeat each other. Obviously this is the tactic that your wise commander can imagine." Milinda's sarcasm became more intense.
"Does your Majesty have a more brilliant suggestion? I am willing to listen." Hagero kicked the ball to Milinda's feet, and he leisurely watched how this strange woman dealt with it.
"I will place a fleet somewhere between Stat Harbor and Fortress Ender, so that it can be used to cut off the main artery between Monti Tower and Leiding, and also to The Tatars risked attacking us while cutting off their return route," Milinda said.
"Excellent argument, but I seem to think that this is just a bias towards the use of the fleet. You still seem to have divided the fleet into three parts, or else there is something wrong with my arithmetic." Hagriro also used cynicism. replied.
"Well, the quarrel will not help solve the current problem at all. There is obviously no doubt about dividing the fleet into three parts. The only thing left is to appoint who will be the commander of the fleet." Horkels III stopped an original dispute. Endless quarrels that will most likely occur.
"There is really no need to worry about this matter. Vedsk belongs to you. Your wife has the responsibility of guarding it. Anyway, she has always been eager to board the battleship and fight on the battlefield. The fleet guarding Vedsk is under her command. That's it, and Kashina is my territory, and I personally guard my territory. As for the third fleet, I do have a suitable candidate. He left me with a great impression during the battle of Stat Harbor. A profound impact." Haguero said slowly.
This time Milinda never argued with her old rival, and she was obviously very satisfied with Haguero's nomination.
Horkels III and Somyret also nodded. This was obviously the best choice and also the easiest arrangement for them to accept.
…
When Vedsk was immersed in the celebration of victory, almost everyone in Montita Prairie and Grant City was filled with incomparable sorrow and hatred.
The most angry one among them all was Chris, who returned in a hurry, because her most precious laboratory was turned into a pile of ruins in the explosion.
This woman, with chirping electric sparks all over her body, frightened and frightened even the Montita people who were also grieving and angry.
"I will make the Kaoqi people pay the price." The sharp and piercing roar resounded throughout the Cloud City. The Montita people who heard this extremely sharp shout suddenly felt a sense of relief and excitement. They seemed to have already prepared for it. The revenge of the dead lovers and friends seemed to have washed away the shame and hatred.
And Cecilia, who was full of revenge, was obviously very excited to have a powerful ally.
Unlike Cecilia and Chris, who appear extremely crazy because of their anger, Enleco is probably the only character in the Cloud City who does not want revenge, because he knows very well that for Cecilia and Chris, Said that the so-called revenge is to use the same method to destroy a certain city in the Kingdom of Kaoqi.
The same disaster, the same destruction will befall the Kaoqi people, and most of the ten people who will be destroyed and annihilated are the common people of the Kaoqi Kingdom.
In his opinion, the so-called war is a game in which civilians are tightly tied to chariots. Both sides of the game enjoy it, but the civilians who cannot move do not like it, which destroys them and increases their suffering. war.
Enleco has never forgotten that he was once the son of a grocery store owner. For him, the future was just to become the owner of a grocery store.
Because of this, no matter what changes have taken place in the environment and status, Enleco always considers himself a member of the common people.
However, he didn't intend to express his objection openly. Chrissy's anger alone was enough to make him back down.
Enleco believed that if he stood up to stop him at this moment, the lightning storm would definitely envelope him in an instant.
And Chris will be the target of venting her anger, her destruction will fall on his head, and he will suffer unimaginable suffering on behalf of the civilians of the Kaoqi Kingdom.
Enleco believed that he had not yet reached such a sacred and compassionate state. Because of this, he chose to remain silent.
But it is a pity that he, who has always been regarded as a wise military man and a superb wise man, has become the only person who everyone believes is qualified to formulate combat plans.
Looking at Cecelia's burning eyes and Duck's eagerness to try, what made Enleco even more panicked and frightened was the bright light beating on the fingertips of his wife and teacher, Princess Princess Chris. lightning.
"If you want revenge, you must have a target for revenge." Enleco finally chose to compromise again. After all, it is better to act as the devil's accomplice than to become the devil's toy and suffer.
"Vedsk, I want the capital of the Kaoqi people to turn into rubble in the fire and smoke like the city in the clouds." Cecelia said angrily. At this moment, she looked like an extremely powerful statue. Nemesis.
"Why not pick a few more cities? Anyway, there are many targets in Kaoqi." Chris next to her said in a sharp voice. If Cecelia looks like the goddess of revenge, then Chris at this moment There is no doubt that it is the demon king Pitonconisarius who represents destruction.
Enleco naturally did not dare to pay attention to Chris's words. He said to Cecilia: "I'm afraid it won't be that easy to attack Vedsk. The capital of the Kingdom of Kaoqi has nearly half of their magicians concentrated there, and even more What's more, the Kaoqi people's flying boat must be hidden somewhere near Vedsk. If we take the same adventure and fail, Montita will no longer have the power to fight against the Kaoqi people's invasion. Is it necessary to use Mondita for revenge? Is the future and safety of Tita Grassland used as a bargaining chip in a huge gamble?"
Enleco's words made Cecilia hesitate. Apparently she also knew very well that this was a very dangerous gamble.
But Dak next to him was obviously far from being so rational. He jumped out angrily and said: "Even if we take greater risks, we must avenge the dead. If you are not going to sacrifice for this, then you can I'll take this adventure."
Dark's words obviously did not add a bit of fighting will to everyone's hearts. On the contrary, they made Cecilia, who was overwhelmed by anger, become a little calmer.
She glanced at her son coldly, and then casually threw a silent spell on him.
"In your opinion, how should you choose? If what you said is obviously reasonable, I am willing to give up the plan of targeting Vedsk." Cecelia said coldly, she could tell Enlai at a glance I don’t want to work hard and have thoughts and ideas.
Cecilia's cold gaze made Enleco tremble all over. He felt as if he was being stared at by a poisonous snake. At this moment, Enleco finally understood why Cecilia could do so without hesitation. Let the entire city in the clouds receive the baptism of blood.
He even suspected that Cecelia also had the same ruthless bloodline as the Roland family.
"Even if we want to avenge the Kaoqi people and bring destruction to the city of the Kaoqi people, everyone must at least consider how to return our fleet to the Montita Grassland safely." Enleco said slowly.
Seeing that no one responded to his words, he could only continue: "I am convinced that once we attack any city in the Kaoqi Kingdom, our rear way back to the Montita Grassland will be destroyed by the Kaoqi fleet. If we turn around and return to Montita, we will definitely be intercepted by the well-prepared Kaoqi fleet."
"So we have only two choices, either to fly to Sophien or to the Kingdom of Leiding. However, considering the distance between Montita and Sophien, this route is obviously a bit incredible, and the Kingdom of Leiding and us are There is only a narrow strait between them, so it is obviously a more suitable choice to cross the strait from Leiding and return to the Kingdom of Montita."
"In this case, the best option is to attack the city of Kaochi near the north. This will give us enough time to escape to the Leding border." Enleco said.
"North? Do you mean to attack Kashina, the second largest city in the Kaoqi Kingdom?" Cecilia asked.
Although Enleco didn't have a good impression of Haguero and his territory from the bottom of his heart, he did not want to cause Kaoqi and Montita to form irresolvable hatred.
He hesitated for a while and said: "I'm afraid Kashina is not a suitable choice. It is Hegeelo's hometown and also his territory. Kashina is probably not much weaker than Vedsk's defense. If we attack there, I'm afraid Monty The Tower Kingdom must also pay a huge price."
Cecelia thought for a moment, then turned her gaze to her father who stood aside without making any sound.
The old man nodded slightly, a cunning light flashed in his eyes.
"I have a suggestion. Since attacking Kashina seems too dangerous, it is better to attack a few cities that are easier to attack. As long as those cities have a large enough population, as long as our attacks can make the Kingdom of Kaoqi feel that we are The same grief and sorrow at this moment must be enough to calm the hatred in our hearts."
Cecelia obviously fully understood her father's thoughts. She nodded slightly and moved her gaze to the map hanging on the wall.
"As long as you spend some time, it is not difficult to find cities that meet the conditions. As long as those cities are near our planned attack route and have a population of more than 300,000 living in the city, it is best that those cities also have narrow The streets and the cluster of wooden houses would be even more perfect.”
Speaking of which, Cecilia glanced coldly at Enleco.
“The people of the grassland have never liked fire, but now, we must learn from our neighbors, the Kaoqi people. They taught us that compared with the earth-shattering power of thunder, the fire that spreads everywhere is better at devouring human life. Turning the Kaochi city into a sea of fire and letting the spreading fire avenge us is the best reward we can give the Kaochi people for teaching us such an interesting game."
The old man next to him also nodded and said: "Using the spreading sea of fire to attack the city of the Kaoqi people will save us a lot of things and time. We don't need to hover and stay over the city of the Kaoqi Kingdom. We only need to use The first wave of attacks destroyed the buildings on both sides of the main road, blocked the road with collapsed ruins, and then set off countless fires in all directions of the city. Then they were able to move away, allowing the fires to spread on their own and connect into one, making the building The city itself went up in flames.”
The words of the father and daughter made Enleco feel horrified, and he felt more and more the horror of war.
War can make anyone lose their mind and turn kind people into cruel executioners.
But Enleco was helpless, because he knew very well that war is like a blazing fire. A very small spark is enough to ignite it, but it is not so easy to extinguish it.
In most cases, the fire is extinguished not by the efforts of the firefighters but because there is nothing left to burn.
Enleco has no way of knowing when the war will subside, let alone what will be left of the Montita Grassland and the Kaoqi Kingdom after the war is extinguished.
"How much damage did Grant City suffer in this attack? How many spaceships do we still have in our hands?" Enleco quickly changed the topic.
"The total number of casualties is nearly 120,000. The Kingdom of Montita will not be able to make up for such huge losses for decades. What is even more distressing is that about 80% of the casualties are women and children, who are the offspring of the tribe. The root is Montita’s hope for prosperity.” Cecilia said sadly.
"As for the flying boats, we already have more than two hundred ships in hand. Most of them were originally used to guard the strait and make the waterway between the Kingdom of Leiding and us unobstructed. Because of this, they were lucky enough to escape. "
"However, it only takes three days for us to have a thousand spaceships again. Duck's unintentional move has brought us hope. He and those who were punished rebuilt a batch of spaceships. This was originally The core crystals and debris left behind by the teams that were accidentally wiped out during the raid have been installed on the new spaceship."
"This batch of newly built spaceships has completed the construction of the skeleton and the pasting of the skins. The only thing missing now is to place the magic array and various devices inside. This work is very important for Dak and his group of people. It’s obviously difficult to do it.”
Hearing what the old man said, everyone turned their attention to Enleco. For this matter, Enleco obviously could not find any excuse to refuse.
"We will be able to launch the attack in three days." Cecilia nodded slightly and said.
"This is enough to catch those Kaoqi people off guard." The old man next to him also knew very well what this meant.
"However, during these three days, we have almost no protective power. If the Kaochi attack Grant City again, we may still be able to watch helplessly as they pour thunder and fireballs on our heads." Xixi. Leah said worriedly.
"Don't worry, during these three days, I guarantee that no one will be able to come close to this place alive." Chrissy said next to her, with absolute confidence in her sharp voice.
No one dares to doubt Chris's guarantee. After all, everyone here knows very well about her strength.
With her mysterious teleportation magic, no one or any kind of power can intercept her.
Because of this, even if the great mage Kobe Leo, the royal mage Drakes and the evil mage Trode of the Kaoqi Kingdom join forces, they can't stop Chris from doing what she wants to do.
The dense raindrops of arrows and the fireballs falling all over the sky were also of no use to Chris.
As long as she controls "Telbot", Chris is simply invincible.
…
After Enleco and Chris left, the three grandparents returned to the table.
Cecilia said slowly: "I have already expected this outcome. Enleco will never be willing to attack the Kingdom of Kaoqi, let alone support the suggestion of attacking Vedsk."
Hearing what his mother said, Dak beside him frowned and said, "Maybe we don't need to tell Enleco to change direction and go to Vedsk halfway."
The old man shook his head slowly and said: "This is absolutely not allowed. If we turn to attack Vedsk, we will completely lose Enleco's trust, and his help is crucial to us at this moment."
Cecelia also said: "In addition, what Enleco is worried about may not be wrong. Since the Kaoqi people can sneak attack Grant, they must also be worried that we will give them a fatal blow in the same way. Vader Sk is most likely to be under heavy protection, and it would be very difficult to attack there."
"The reason why the Kaoqi people were able to catch us off guard this time is entirely due to the Kaoqi spies lurking in the Cloud City. However, we did not have the power to use it in Vedsk. Vader There is definitely more than just a magic monitoring barrier in Sk."
"What's more, Vedsk is almost in the center of the Kaoqi Kingdom. As Enleco said, it is obviously not easy to escape from attacking there. At least in terms of preserving strength, Enleco does not There is nothing hidden, and there shouldn’t be many mistakes in the attack line he directed.”
Hearing what his daughter said, the old man frowned. He gently took the map off the wall and laid it flat on the table.
His old, dry, slender fingers slowly traced along the line Enleco just mentioned.
There is a very conspicuous red dot on one side of this line that does not seem very far away. The marked city is Kashina.
"What a tempting target." The old man murmured to himself.
"In addition to pursuing luxury and prosperity, most of the houses in Kashina are built with bricks instead of wood. It is also an excellent target for attacks. Its roads are extremely narrow, and the streets are lined with tall buildings. A few mines are enough to Block the whole street."
"Kashina has a population of more than one million. Unlike Vedsk, most residents of Kashina stay in the city because the environment around Kashgar is too harsh, with water shortages, storms, sand and dust, all of which make Residents have no choice. Kashgar is famous for its high cost of land, which is why the buildings there are all tightly packed together."
"It would be a perfect target, and one that would cause the Kaochi Kingdom to feel as much pain as we do."
The old man said slowly.
Cecelia obviously had the same idea, and she also locked her eyes tightly on Kashner.
"However, what Enleco said may not be entirely wrong. Kashina is also likely to be surrounded by heavy protection. After all, the lord who owns this city is Heigelo, and Kashina is the closest to the Montita Grassland. Huge city." Cecilia said worriedly.
"How much power do the Kaoqi people have to defend their city?" the old man suddenly thought of something and said.
"Judging from this attack, their number of spaceships will definitely not exceed four hundred." Cecelia replied.
"If we add magicians, I'm afraid it's quite remarkable to be able to defend three to four cities. So, according to Enleco's suggestion, we can indeed give some smaller cities a fatal blow without any damage. Attack, but for the Kaoqi people, no matter how small the city is, it is their territory, and they will definitely pursue it. In addition to the remaining two hundred or so airships, we also have the nearly completed airship in Dake's hand. There are 700 flying boats, I hope the Kaoqi people don’t know anything about these 700 flying boats.”
"If this hypothesis is completely true, it is still possible for us to successfully attack Kashgar." At this point, the old man pulled out a small knife from his waist, borrowed another small knife from Duck, and pulled the two knives out of their scabbards. , the old man carefully placed these four things on the map.
"In three days, we will have less than a thousand airships. Instead of concentrating our efforts on attacking the Ka'aoqi people and thereby exposing all the strength in our hands, it is better to create a maze of formations so that the Kaoqi people can't figure out what's in our hands. How much power.”
As he spoke, the old man picked up a scabbard and said leisurely: "These are twenty flying boats. On board are only magicians who are proficient in monitoring magic and sentries who control falcons. They will be our eyes and keep our troops safe." nothing."
Putting the scabbard aside, the old man pointed to the three remaining things and said: "The other flying boats were divided into three parts. Each team had less than 300 ships. When the first team attacked the first city, At this time, other teams continue to rush to the target ahead."
"The team that completed the attack mission will go to a predetermined meeting point, and then the second team will attack the second city. After the attack, they will join the first team. The same thing will happen to the third team. However, they will continue to move forward as bait to lure possible pursuers from the Kaoqi Kingdom."
"If our sentinel proves that Kashina is not heavily guarded, then three teams will attack Kashina at the same time, dealing a fatal blow to the city and avenging our dead compatriots."
"If the sentinel discovers that Kashina is heavily guarded, then the third team will try to lure it away, allowing the first and second teams to have the opportunity to attack Kashina."
"If the defenders of Kashina remain unmoved at all, then the third team will continue to advance and attack other cities, using numbers to make up for the loss of being unable to attack Kashina, an excellent target."
The old man's plan made the other two people nod repeatedly. It was obvious that this was indeed an effective plan.
"I will command the third team." Dak said immediately, obviously he already saw that the third team has the most important responsibilities.
But she didn't expect that Cecilia rejected her son's request. She said slowly: "To complete this mission, it is best to choose a mature and steady person as the commander. Gunta is the most suitable candidate."
The old man next to him also nodded repeatedly, obviously he had the same understanding.
