Amon shook his head and said: "If you want me to put down my weapon here, there is only one possibility, and that is that your guards killed me, but before that, they will definitely kill you, His Majesty the King by mistake! So in order to protect you , I can't put down my weapon. Before your Majesty makes a request, let me make a request to invite the man outside."

Under the "escort" of a team of imperial guards, Mei Danzuo walked in with a high spirit, and stood behind Amon with a sword in his hand. He acted like a loyal captain of the personal guard. Seeing him with his chest up and his head held high, he seemed to be He was accompanying the coach to inspect the army under his command, but his eyes kept staring at the two beauties on the bed, and he whispered in Amon's ear with his sword: "My god, you are so amazing, I have already I knew you would be able to capture the king, but I didn't expect to bring this beauty to the table!"

Then he waved his hand and said to the people around him: "You servants, how can you watch the jade body of the princess? It's so shameless that you don't have the etiquette, so why don't you cover your face and step back! Your majesty also needs to wear clothes, so it's not suitable here." Stay here and change us a good tent, do you want His Majesty to sleep naked in the open air in the middle of the night?"

As he spoke, Mei Danzuo had already changed Amon's position, hung the long sword back to his waist, drew out the short blade, and tapped lightly on the back of the chair behind the king. And Amon put away the short blade, stretched out his hand and took out a branch out of thin air, stepped forward two steps, pointed around and said: "I'm sorry, I was rude, how could you treat Your Majesty and the two princesses like this. Please take the king Bring back the clothes, wait for the two concubines to leave here for a good rest, and change us into a comfortable tent."

He picked up the branch, and the two bed boards on the table flew up lightly, as if they were held in the air by invisible big hands and fell into the yard outside. Only then did Celia see clearly that the "twig" in Amon's hand was actually a magic staff. This legion commander was also skilled in magical arts, and he used his magic power quite subtly.

The efficiency of the king's personal entourage is high. The palace people lifted the bed board and the two princesses down, and reinstalled a magnificent animal skin tent. Naturally, the king has a special account and bedding for traveling. Amon and Metanzuo "guarded" Lucier, only saying that the king was tired and frightened and needed to rest, and if he had anything to say, we could talk about it tomorrow, and then closed the big tent.

The imperial guards surrounded the big tent heavily, and Amon and Metanzuo couldn't fly, but no one outside dared to rush in, because the king's life was in the hands of the assassin. I don't know how the king and the assassin are "resting". Anyway, other people in the camp don't want to sleep. They can only wait for the dawn in anxiety, guessing what tricks these two assassins want to play

The supreme commander in the camp temporarily became the king's accompanying magician Celia. She couldn't make the decision when such a big incident happened. The frontline headquarters of the main battlefield. At present, this news can only be known to the high-level people on the front line. Otherwise, it must be tightly sealed and cannot be leaked, otherwise it will shake the morale of the army.

Of course, Celia had to ask Afei, the great warrior guarding the big tent, how could the assassin capture the king? Afei was also full of grievances and couldn't tell. Medanzuo made a lot of noise outside, and finally attracted Celia's attention. When she went out to perform magic spells to take down Medanzuo, Amon came from another One direction sneaked into the camp.

If Celia was still next to the king's tent, even if Amon could enter the camp, it would be difficult for him to quietly approach the tent where the king sleeps. The king's big tent has three entrances, front and back, and the front tent is the usual place for discussions and banquets. Afei and his personal guards are guarding outside the front tent door. The tent in the middle is the king's sleeping place, and there is another tent at the back, which is guarded by the palace guards who serve the king, and there are two magicians and a group of guards outside the back tent door.

When Celia made a move, the fierce battle outside the camp attracted everyone's attention. Amon suddenly made a move on the side of the king's tent, splitting the entire tent in half with a single blow, but the people inside were unharmed. Not hurt. It's hard to describe how amazing this knife is. Amon didn't use a short blade made of monster snake fangs, or the short knife that Mayor Dusty gave him when he left Duke Town a few years ago.

Amon sneaked in silently, but he did not hide it when he started. A hunter used a knife when walking in the mountains, but it had a dazzling light like a rainbow across the night sky. The large animal skin tent was cut in half together with the brackets, and made a sharp sound of breaking through the air. The separated tent was rolled to both sides by a force, covering all the people in front of and behind the tent.

As a great warrior, Afei naturally wouldn't be entangled by the fallen tent. He reacted when Amon swung his knife. He opened the big tent with his sword and rushed in. He appeared by the king's side immediately. . He was closer, and although he was delayed for a while, he rushed into the middle tent faster than Amon.

But as soon as he rushed in, Amon, who was also galloping forward, picked up the staff in his hand, and the bed on which the king slept was split into two halves, and two naked princesses lay on it and threw them at Afei. Afei's duty is to protect the safety of the king and queen. He has raised his sword, but his subconscious reaction is not to strike, but to pick it with the tip of the sword, very delicately picking the two bed boards past him, smoothly It landed on the table in the front tent, and the two terrified princesses were unharmed.

When he raised his sword to strike forward again, Amon also rushed forward, swinging his staff and striking directly with a whistling sound. This is the power that can only be aroused by a great warrior. The long sword clashed with the iron staff, the sound was like thunder, and it was A Fei who flew out.

If Afei had held the stick with all his strength, maybe he wouldn't have been blown away that far, but the king was lying between the two of them. Lucille deserved to be unlucky today. He had fun during the day and drank some wine at night. He was having fun on the bed with the two princesses in his arms. Suddenly, there was a sharp piercing whistle, and he saw the sky naked. of the stars.

The battle between the king and the beauty was in full swing, and no one else dared to disturb them, so they were not too close to the position of the middle tent. Amon used the magic of space to split the bed board accurately, and threw the two princesses to the great warrior Afei, but Lucille fell to the ground from between the two split bed boards, and then saw a sword and a sword on his back. The rods clashed over his body.

If the strength of the two great warriors erupted in a head-to-head confrontation, the nearby unshielded king would be enough to be killed several times by the aftermath of the sword light. So Afei couldn't take it hard, so he was knocked out. When he smashed over the big iron stove in the courtyard and got up and rushed back, other people had already jumped out from under the tent. Celia and Aluka They also arrived, but the king had already fallen into the hands of Amon.

Orebane, the head of the Nannar Legion, and Vivian, the chief priest, were shocked when they received the news. They heard that the assassins turned out to be Amon, the head of the An-La Legion, and his personal guard Captain Medanzo. It was realized when these two men crossed the line of defense and entered the rear. It was during the inexplicable offensive two days ago.

Ge Lie has long reminded that Amon is the person who is most familiar with the terrain and environment in this area. But Aurebein never dreamed that Amon, as the commander of the legion, quietly infiltrated the enemy's line of defense with only one entourage, avoiding all the sentries and scouts, and actually accurately touched the king's camp , and successfully held the king hostage!

If there is something wrong with the king here, not only the accompanying guards cannot escape the guilt, but also Orebein and Vivian can't bear to walk around. The Nannar Legion did not win the battle at all.

After receiving the secret report, Orebein immediately ordered the entire army to stick to the camp and the line of defense, not to take the initiative to attack. He and Vivian rushed to the king's camp with the elite guard Pegasus. To deal with two assassins, in fact, the guards around the king were enough, and it would be useless to have more people, but Orebein had to do this, he had to put on a posture of loyal escort.

On the side of the An-La Legion, the chief priest George is anxiously waiting for the news. The life and death of Amon and Medanzuo are uncertain, and they will decide the fate of the entire battle. Amon said about his plan, even if he can't catch King Hattie, he can disrupt the opponent's battle line, disturbing the rear will make it difficult for the Nannar Legion to take care of the end, and the An-Ra Legion will have the opportunity to carry out the pharaoh's order. Rescue the main battlefield.

The adventure of two people is safer than the death of 20,000 people. Amon gave the order as the head of the army and did not bring a priest. The chief priest, George, was responsible for supervising the army, but in the end he reluctantly nodded and did not stop Amon's actions.

Orebein and Vivian left the camp suddenly with their elite guards and rushed to the edge of the Black Fire Swamp in the northeast, naturally they did not hide from George's investigation. The great magician couldn't help but feel secretly happy. It seems that Amon's action was successful. At the same time, he was also very worried, not knowing what the situation of Amon and Mei Danzuo was, and it was almost impossible to escape.

The only help George could offer was to put pressure on the field, and An-La's army was already ready to strike. George and John immediately led the main force of the legion to rush northward to attack the camp of the Nannar Legion. If it was changed to a few days ago, the An-La Legion would never have such a military operation, but the situation has changed now.

The last time they were chasing and attacking the battalion, the Nannar Legion underestimated the enemy and rushed too hard. The battle was unfavorable and hurt their vitality. And the An-La Legion has just won three battles and their morale is high. The confidence of the soldiers who have never fought before has reversed.

The An-La Legion made its best efforts and launched a fierce attack on the Nannar Legion. This time it was really equivalent to tying people to a tree and beating them. George did not attack rashly, but set up a battle formation and chose a main attack direction to advance steadily and steadily. Since the other party did not take the initiative to attack, this fierce battle scene actually looked like a battalion attack exercise. John calmly mobilized various arms to cooperate and launched round after round of offensives.

Olebein had just walked halfway when he heard that the camp had been attacked. He was in a dilemma, so he gritted his teeth and continued to march towards the king's camp, sending a message that he must rely on the fortifications to hold on. George's purpose was not to capture the big camp, but to use the strategic advantage to severely damage the opponent's vital force, so he did not storm the fortress and solid fortifications, but only chose the weak link in the defense line to launch an assault. In order to defend the defense line, the Nannar Army The casualties paid by the gap were great.

The battle lasted for a day, and the An-La Army, the main attacker, also suffered hundreds of casualties, but it captured a corner of the Nannar Army's camp and achieved brilliant results. They burned many tents and stockpiled a lot of military supplies, and before the reserve forces of Oreben and the Syrian city-state arrived for reinforcements, they withdrew their troops and returned to the camp, bringing back a large amount of spoils of war.

After this battle, on this flanking battlefield, the combat effectiveness, morale, and offensive and defensive initiative between the two legions have all reversed. The Nannar Legion, which had suffered two heavy losses, was no longer able to launch an active counterattack against the An-La Legion, and could only passively take a defensive position.

There was another rumor that made the Hatti soldiers terrified. The An-Ra army shouted slogans during the attack: "King Hatti has been captured alive by our great army leader Amon. The Hatti army is about to be defeated. Your army leader You have already rushed to the king to accept the surrender, you should surrender soon!"

Such rumors are unbelievable, but they have to be suspicious. The head of the legion and the chief priest left in a hurry and only ordered to stand by. The battle was so fierce that they did not come back to preside over the overall situation. Something must have happened. Could it be that the king was really captured alive? ? If the king was captured by the enemy, then the main force of Hatti must have been defeated!

A day later, Orebein came back and immediately ordered heavy punishments for those who spread rumors in the army. However, panic hung over the hearts of many soldiers like a lingering shadow, but they dared not speak out publicly.

How did Orebain come back? He was under the orders of Zhu Guli, the prime minister of the empire and the minister in charge of military affairs, and Ge Lie, the commander-in-chief of the front line. Half a day after he arrived at the king's camp, Ge Lie personally drove the flying shuttle and brought Master Zhu Guli to arrive.

Ge Lie received the news that the king was kidnapped very suddenly. Before the news came, he was with Prince Asher who represented the king on the front line to supervise the battle, the prime minister of the kingdom Juguli who commanded the Enlil Legion, the chief priest of the Enlil Legion Zhanbie, Wallet, the chief priest of the Anu Legion, and others discussed the frontline war together.

Zhanbie is the patriarch of Hatti Theological Academy, the chief magician of the royal palace, and a ninth-level great magician. Of the only three nine-level great magicians in Hatti Kingdom, two of them came to the front line of the main battlefield this time, which can be described as the best of the best.

Zhanbie frowned at that time and said: "The latest order from His Majesty the King is to urge us to launch the main attack and eliminate the main force of the Eju army as soon as possible. It is best to capture Lacis II alive and establish an unprecedented miracle in the history of Hatti. Song Lord Lie, as the commander-in-chief of the front line, you have been standing still for so long, His Majesty the King is very anxious."

Ge Lie smiled wryly and said: "Of course I understand His Majesty's mood, everyone wants to win the final victory as soon as possible, but at this time the general offensive is launched, and the Eju army will fight against trapped beasts. The fighting power in despair cannot be underestimated. Although we can win Victory will come at a high price. As long as the siege lasts for another half a month, Hatti will win without a fight, and they will have no strength to counterattack, nor will they be able to retreat across the desert.”

Prince Asher nodded and said: "Lord Gelie is commanding this war, he is really predicting the enemy like a god, the army of Eju is led by our noses, and the situation of the battle is completely in line with the expectations in advance. His Majesty is indeed a little too impatient. , He waited for many years for this big victory, of course he wanted to capture Rasis II. Pharaoh Eju became a prisoner of King Hattie, and he will wash away the humiliation of the past century. I will send the specific situation on the battlefield to The envoy explained to the father that the adults still act according to the plan."

Ge Lie added with a smile: "I suggest that Your Highness add another explanation. If you want to capture Pharaoh alive, he will definitely run away if you launch a general attack at this time. Although the masters around him can't lead the army to retreat, they can protect one person and escape back to Egypt." But it can be done. The reason why Pharaoh has not left is because the main force of the army is trapped in the desert, and he is waiting for the arrival of rescue."

Zhu Guli also analyzed: "I hope that the pharaoh will escape sooner, which means giving up the war. The army besieged by us will be defeated without a fight, and the outcome of a complete victory will come sooner. The pharaoh will not stay in the army." Walking is a symbol, and the Ecu army will continue to invest in reinforcements here. Reinforcements may come from two directions, one is the backup army that departs from the cape city-state and crosses the desert, and the other is the An-La army on the coast."

Prince Asher nodded and said, "Eju's national power is strong. In order to turn the tide of the war with all our strength, it is completely possible to invest in two more legions."

Wallett interjected cautiously: "In my opinion, the longer the pharaoh does not escape and the war drags on, the better it will be for Hatti. If the pharaoh leaves, we will wipe out the Horus and Isis legions, although we can severely damage Eju Temporarily achieved a big victory, but it did not shake the foundation of Eju's national strength. With Lacis II's temper, he would definitely reorganize his armaments and make a comeback.

Then the war will not end, and whether we win or lose in the future, we will have to pay a heavy price. If we encircle without attacking now, attract the follow-up reinforcements of the Eju Empire to fight under unfavorable conditions, trap the Pharaoh's main force and only attack his back-up, and wipe them all out in the desert, only then can the Eju Empire be hurt. , If you are unable to go on an expedition for a long time, peace will truly come. "

Ge Lie nodded and said: "This is exactly what I think. Since the Eju army is waiting for help, let them take their last breath here, and first destroy the An-La army that is going east to rescue, and then concentrate the main force Destroy the Ecu reinforcements that came across the desert. We don't even need to fight annihilation battles. The logistics supplies in the desert are destroyed, and the broken army cannot get supplies on the spot. It is basically a dead end. This is a consumption that we have the advantage of It depends on when the ECU energy consumption will last?"
