Chapter 153: 151 March to Orleans (please subscribe)

Views:

The next day, early morning.

When the trace of the wyvern appeared in the sky again, all the camps stationed on the edge of the woods had been cancelled.

The French elite troops led by Gill are now hiding in the woods, avoiding the patrols of the flying dragons in the sky while gathering together to discuss the next countermeasures.

"Originally, with our strength, if we want to deal with the Dragon Witch with a group of dragons, it will be beyond our power anyway."

Gil knelt on the ground, glanced at Luo Zhen and Ma Xiu on his left and right sides, and spoke in a low voice.

"But now, since you have enough power to fight those monsters, we can organize an effective battle."

How to do this

Very simple.

"I want to march on Orleans."

Gill proposed such a countermeasure very boldly.

"March?"

Matthew was a little surprised, as if he didn't expect Jill to make such a choice.

Luo Zhen also frowned and raised objections.

"It's not what I want to say, Marshal Gil, maybe you think too highly of us." Luo Zhen said: "We do have enough power to deal with the two-legged flying dragon, but that is only limited to the limited number of the opponent. If we want to directly attack the opponent Our base camp, don’t you think this is too hasty?”

Perhaps, a dozen or twenty bipedal flying dragons would be nothing to Mashu with Luo Zhen's support.

But as the saying goes, if many ants kill an elephant, once faced with hundreds of sub-dragon legions, even Matthew can only stare.

And Orleans is the headquarters of the Dragon Witch. There will definitely be many bipedal dragons there, and there may even be real dragon species.

Facing such a lineup, with Ma Xiu's ability, he can only rely on his extraordinary defense to protect Luo Zhen and retreat unscathed. It is absolutely impossible to defeat him head-on.

If there were first-rate servants with high-level anti-army Noble Phantasms here, it would be possible to catch all the flying dragons in one fell swoop.

But at this stage, there is no way to deal with so many flying dragons at once. It is too reckless to rush into the opponent's base camp.

Not to mention, the enemy is not only the flying dragon, but also an unknown entity known as the "Dragon Witch". What's more, even Leif may be hiding aside and waiting for an opportunity.

Facing such a camp, Luo Zhenke never thought that it would be so easy to capture Orleans, recover the , and repair the singularity.

Therefore, Luo Zhen could only raise objections to Gill's proposal.

Jill wasn't surprised.

"I know your concerns." Gil said: "However, marching into Orleans now has only advantages and no disadvantages for us."

As he spoke, Gil told all the information he had learned.

"First of all, the doesn't always stay in Orleans."

According to the intelligence collected from troops all over France, the "Dragon Witch" not only summoned the wyverns to attack all of France, but also accompanied the wyvern legion every day at dawn. Go to ravage the cities that are still intact. After destroying a city, you will ride the wyvern back to Orleans. Sometimes, you will even attack several cities in one day.

Therefore, at this time, the opponent should have left Orleans with the flying dragon army and was not in Orleans.

"Secondly, the other party probably never thought that we would have enough combat power to fight against the wyverns, and there would not be many wyverns left in the base area. Our reconnaissance force also sent intelligence and guarded the center of Orleans. The number of flying dragons is quite limited. With your combat power and our support, it shouldn’t be difficult to capture Orleans like this."

Jill was making such calculations.

In this way, even with the combat power present, it is not completely impossible to win Orleans.

only…

"If that's the case, what's the point of taking Orleans?" Luo Zhen retorted: "Our goal is to defeat the Dragon Witch, right? We don't just want to simply take back a city, right?"

What's the use of just taking back a city

"That could simply change to another base, continue to summon the flying dragons, ravage all of France, and even concentrate its forces to fight back and capture all of us who have exposed our whereabouts. This is simply asking for death."

Obviously, Luo Zhen did not agree very much with the countermeasures proposed by Gil.

But Gil just smiled.

"Of course I know that our ultimate goal is to defeat the ." Gil said: "However, regardless of how difficult the is to deal with, let's just say that the two-legged flying dragon she leads can even You all said that you can't deal with them all. If you are really going to deal with the Dragon Witch, then you should first eliminate the threat of the flying dragon, right?"

This is correct.

Just think about it, if the was a Servant, then Mashu would have to use all his strength to defeat her.

To deal with followers, you should also send out followers. This is the most basic tactic.

And if Luo Zhen and Ma Xiu were concentrating on dealing with the "Dragon Witch", there were still a large group of flying dragons harassing them, and even the "Dragon Witch" herself didn't need to be dispatched, and would only control the army of flying dragons. What should we do to deal with Luo Zhen and Ma Xiu

Therefore, there are only two ways to deal with the .

"Either we have to deal with the threat posed by the flying dragon first, or we have to gather enough combat power to defeat the flying dragon's army head-on."

Jill said this.

"Unfortunately, we don't have enough combat power."

Then, there is only one choice that can be made.

That is to first deal with the threat posed by the flying dragon.

This is why Gill proposed taking Orleans.

"According to the investigation, all the wyverns flew out of Orleans, and they did not reproduce themselves."

The purpose of Gil's words was obvious, which was to say that the secret of the birth of the wyvern might lie in Orleans.

"After all, Joan of Arc never controlled a dragon during her lifetime."

Jill said these words in a low voice, just as Luo Zhen guessed last night.

After hearing Gil's words, Ma Xiu also echoed Luo Zhen's ear and said this.

"Is it possible that the is not in the body of the , but was placed in Orleans and used as a source of magic power to summon the flying dragon?"

Ultimately, the so-called "Holy Grail" is actually an almost inexhaustible source of magic power. The prerequisite for the realization of all miracles is that there must be sufficient magic power.

In view of this, even if the is placed in Orleans, placed on some summoning magic circle, and used as a source of magic power, it is not impossible.

"… Understood."

Luo Zhen pondered for a while, then nodded.

"Let's attack Orleans!"

Hearing this, Jill also nodded heavily.
