time flies.
As dusk fell, around 7:00 p.m., the torrential rain gradually stopped, but the dark clouds hovering over the head still failed to dissipate. The rain in the changing seasons of each year often lasted for several days.
On the wall of gold.
On the beacon towers separated by tens of meters, the flames are burning. The fuel is stone animal oil and sycamore wood, which are special products for the military. It lasts for a long time and is not easy to extinguish. Run up the steps to the wall and replace the post.
Aubenluo had a simple dinner and looked up at the sky above his head. There were no stars tonight, and it was as dark as ink. Obviously, the dark clouds were still there, and it would rain again in an unknown time. He turned to the adjutant and said, "Order the generals not to relax, in case they attack suddenly. Also, tell the intelligence department to do a good job in intelligence work. The frequency of replies from scouts will increase."
"Yes." Adjutant Jun Lang agreed, turned and left.
"You, let the six Purple Feather Army prepare for battle and be ready to attack at any time." Aubenluo instructed another assistant.
"yes."
"I want to drag us down by disaster rain. After the battle is over, I want to see which military strategist came up with such an idea." Aubenluo's face was gloomy, his eyes narrowed slightly, he marched all his life, experienced Jungle warfare, desert warfare, hill warfare and dozens of large and small-scale wars in different terrains have not been defeated. However, this war is unprecedentedly important, and the disadvantage of the environment is also unprecedentedly severe. Although he occupies the The location is favorable, but the climate and soldiers are difficult to match the opponent, and there are not many cards that can be used...

night.
In the old castle, in Du Dian's study.
Du Dian called Mr. Flynn, Nicotine and Kruen, and expressed his thoughts. After discussing with Mr. Flynn, he ordered Mr. Nicotine and Kruen to perform his tasks, and waited for them to leave the study. Finally, Du Dian sat at the desk and thought for a long time, then slowly looked away, sighed softly, with a touch of sadness in his eyes, lifted the curtains, looked at the dark night outside, and remained silent for a long time.
the next day.
In the early morning, the sky was shrouded in dark clouds, and it was drizzling.
The deliverymen of the Post put on raincoats and delivered newspapers to every household that subscribed in the drizzle.
While flipping through the newspaper as usual, the entire business district, and even the entire Sylvia outer wall area, were in an uproar.
The savages attacked the Wall of Gold, and the frontier war horn sounded!
This headline news appeared on the headlines of almost all newspapers, even the newspapers that only report on finance and economics, or the sideline newspapers that only report on the entertainment news of noble ladies, the headline position is also occupied by this news, which is irreplaceable !
The news spread like a virus to every corner of the outer wall area, and the residents who reacted the most were the residents in the commercial area. For a while, some residents even braved the rainy weather, put on raincoats, and headed to their neighbors, or to the Guangming Holy See and other authorities on the square. The local government inquired about the authenticity of the news, but saw that news of war was also written on the bulletin boards of the Bright Holy See in various squares.
"Yesterday afternoon, when the heavy rain came, the savages took advantage of the heavy rain to attack the Golden Wall. The war lasted until six o'clock in the evening. After the heavy rain stopped, the savages temporarily retreated. The soldiers of the army stubbornly held on to the fortress. The number of casualties was 26,000. Thousand, two hundred... 71,800 wounded soldiers..."
In the castle, at the fixed breakfast time every day, Du Dian read the morning newspaper delivered today while eating bread and milk. Yes, but when reading the newspapers of the military department, the key is their attitudes and ideas.
"In the past day alone, more than 20,000 soldiers died..." Flynn was a little shocked when he saw the casualty data in the newspaper, and said, "These savages are so cruel? We rely on the Golden Wall to defend, and we will suffer such heavy losses?"
Du Dian said: "How can we gain sympathy without losing some people? It is estimated that after this war, the military department will also make big moves. They are all taking advantage of the opportunity to warm up. Only fools are kept in the dark."
Fulin glanced at him, sighed, and said: "I heard some news before, it should be that the development of the Trial Office and the Holy See of Light has become more and more fierce these years, and the image of the military department in people's hearts has fallen instead. In addition to the idlers, the residents of the commercial district hope that their children will become soldiers, and they will receive a generous salary by standing guard every day. They are also members of the system. If the organization leaves people with such an impression, even if it is not corrupt, it is not far from extinction, and the military department retreating directly in front of the golden wall is also a risky move to restore its reputation."
Du Dian said: "This move is high, and the move is correct. If you can eat the enemy, you will naturally win a big victory. If you can't eat the enemy, you will be turned into an army, and you will lose everything. The superiors in the department are much more courageous and ruthless than we imagined! However, I just don’t know if they have expected that this time the enemy is much more difficult than they imagined. According to Kaqi’s information, When the wildlings attacked the city, they used a monster called 'giant frog' to attack the city."
"This thing crossed the city wall like it was walking on the ground. The savage picked an excellent time. A heavy rain destroyed the forbidden weapon of the general's cannon. I don't know if the military has any other cards."
Flynn glanced at his expression and said, "You... do you hope they have it, or don't you?"
Du Dian smiled and said calmly: "Of course it's not good."
Flynn was taken aback.
Du Dian looked at the military newspaper in his hand, and said slowly: "Through the intuitive things such as casualty data, injured personnel, and battle time, let people realize the tragedy and difficulty of the war, and take a brief look at the strategy and situation of the war, huh, huh, The military department is also well-intentioned, I hope they can control the situation in the end, and don't capsize by then."
Flynn withdrew his gaze from his face, picked up another newspaper, and said, "This is a medium-influential newspaper of the Huasheng Consortium. The news about you is under the headline of the war. Well, it focuses on the new magic. , I hope there will be good results.”
"Whether there will be a good result depends on the two of them." Du Dian said slowly with far-reaching eyes.
"The Mr. Nicotine and Kluen?"
"Um."
"By the way, what was the task you gave them last night? I haven't come back now. Can you tell me?"
"There is nothing inconvenient to tell you about your relationship with me. I'm just afraid that you will worry about it. It's not enough to rely on the newspapers to create momentum. I let them distribute leaflets and spread gossip. A punching bag for venting everywhere, if their mission is carried out properly, we can at least get a chance to attract people's attention." Du Di'an said.
Flynn gave him a suspicious look, but said nothing.
Around ten o'clock in the morning.
When the rain broke, dozens of figures appeared outside the castle, all dressed as farmers and civilians, rushing angrily to the front of the castle, only to be stopped by the Knight of Light at the gate.
"Get out of the way, we're looking for Du Dian who colluded with foreign enemies!"
"Get him out!"
"He blasphemed the belief of God, let him apologize for the dead soldiers!"
"My son died in battle, it was all his fault, it was all his fault, woo woo woo..."
Dozens of people yelled and shouted loudly, making it extremely noisy.
Du Dian, who was sitting in the study looking at the super chip, heard the sound, frowned slightly, and glanced down from the window. He could directly see the scene outside the castle. At this moment, several light knights were stopping in front of these angry people. Shout out.
Boom boom boom.
There was a knock on the door.
Du Dian glanced at it and said calmly: "I heard it, just let the Knights of Light stop them. If you are free, just come forward and send them away. A few troublemakers are nothing to be afraid of."
Sandro outside the door was startled, promised, turned and left.
Dozens of people drank and cried loudly outside the castle. After more than an hour, the sky began to rain again before they were forced to retreat.
Du Dian quietly flipped through the knowledge in the super chip and studied it seriously, as if he was not affected at all.
Another day.
"Is the war getting worse?"
During breakfast, Du Dian opened the newspaper of the military department, saw the headline above, slightly hooked the corner of his mouth, and looked down calmly.
