The next day, the commander of the Phantom Cavalry Regiment received the approval from the military. At that time, three infantry regiments and one cavalry regiment would come to support, but the premise was that the Phantom Cavalry had to hold on for five days! After all, it would take time to mobilize the army from the capital! Usually, it would take at least ten days! It seemed that the military was really going all out this time!
Ximen Yu took the documents from the military and casually threw them on the table. He said to Kahn,""If the Behemoths attack the city, are you confident that you can defend for five days?”
Kahn said with a troubled face,"We Phantom Cavalry are good at field battles. Defending a city is not our forte! However, there are still 30,000 infantrymen in the fortress. I think they should be able to hold on until reinforcements arrive!”
Ximen Yu looked at Kahn and shrugged.""According to my scouts, the Behemoth has gathered about 30,000 troops. There are still a few regiments that dare to arrive before sunset tomorrow! Moreover, they brought along siege weapons. It is said that these few regiments are commanded by the fox clan, but if they arrive, I'm afraid our situation won't be optimistic!”
Chief of Staff Counselor Kobe pointed at the provinces marked on the map and moved east.""Young General, look, this is the map we drew. After years of surveying and drawing, we have accurately confirmed the terrain of a radius of 300 miles. 130 miles to the east of Mengzhong Province is the border. Due to the heavy rain two months ago, the roads in this area have basically been washed away by the flood. I think that no matter how fast the behemoth's heavy siege weapons are, they will be delayed because of the difficult roads. If we can send out a surprise army to attack this army halfway, I think it will definitely reduce the pressure on us!”
Ximen Yu looked at the terrain carefully and pointed at a red mark on the map. He asked,""What is this place?"
Counselor Kobe looked at the place Ximen Yu pointed out and said,""Young General, this is the Red River Valley, not a strategic location! It was marked in red because of the silt here! However, according to the scouts, the Behemoth army seemed to be in a hurry. It was very likely that they would cross the Red River Valley!”
"Did our Empire's army step through here?”Ximen Yu was lying on the map, smoking a cigar as he measured the distance from Red River Valley to the fortress with a ruler.
"Young general, although we often have conflicts with the Behemoths, we have never taken the initiative to attack! The pursuers would not be more than 30 miles away from the fortress!”Kahn said as he stroked his stubble.
Ximen Yu flicked his cigar and looked up at Kahn and his aides. He said expressionlessly,""In other words, our army has never attacked the hinterland of the Behemoth Kingdom?”
After taking a few more puffs of the cigar, he threw the butt of the cigar on the ground and pointed to the west of the fortress on the map until the vicinity of the Red River Valley."Just relying on us alone won't be able to withstand a few attacks from Behemoth. I don't deny your bravery, but fighting with such a powerful opponent like Behemoth will definitely cost you a lot! Therefore, I have decided to send my Wolf Fang Heavy Cavalry to attack this place as quickly as possible. I believe that the Behemoth Air Force will definitely know of our movements, so I'm sure that they will think that such an elite force is going to attack their heavy siege weapons. In that case, they will definitely send their fastest Wolf Cavalry to intercept us! My cavalry will arrive at the Red River Valley in the shortest time possible to wait for the Behemoth's troops to surround and annihilate them. Counsellor Kirby also said that this might be the only way for this army, so the Behemoth must do his best to return to support!”
Kobe pointed at Red River Valley and said,""Young general, your idea is very good, but if the enemy wolf riders encounter our cavalry, I'm afraid the chances of victory are not high. If the behemoth infantry arrives, they might be surrounded and wiped out!”
Ximen Yu smiled and said,""Who told you that I would definitely fight them in Red River Valley? My goal is to attract the attention of the Behemoths. The main battlefield is still here!”Ximen Yu pointed at Cappuccino Fortress on the map!
Could it be that our young general wants to divert the enemy's cavalry and start a decisive battle? Absolutely not. Let's not talk about whether they could win or not. Once the Behemoth broke through the defense line, the western region would be defenseless! At that time, the wolf riders of the Behemoth Empire would be able to charge into the heart of the Empire!
Ximen Yu looked at the stunned advisors and smiled helplessly.""I'm not going to fight the Behemoth head-on. To put it bluntly, the Wolf Fang Cavalry is just a supporting character this time. My magic team is the main character!”
Ximen Yu called Cameron and Ander over and said,""Cameron, this time, I don't want you to achieve many achievements, but speed! You have to get here in the shortest time possible. It is the Red River Valley. Once you encounter the enemy Wolf Riders, you are not allowed to fight. Bring them around in circles. If there is a chance, you can give them a good beating. However, your main task is to attract the attention of the Behemoth! Also, think of a way to set up a simple trap in the Red River Valley to hinder their advance, understand?”
Cameron took the order and hammered his chest with his right hand."General, don't worry. I won't let you down! Wolf Fang is an invincible existence. I will definitely not tarnish our reputation!”With that, he strode out of the hall!
Ximen Yu then said to the team leader of his own team, Ander,""Your mission is the most difficult. Get close to the Behemoth's camp at night and launch a large-scale magic attack. Remember, I don't want any casualty rate. I want the Behemoth to be in chaos. It's best if they can't launch a counterattack against the fortress for a short period of time! As for the Wolf Cavalry soldiers, I will ask Captain Kahn to send a regiment to keep them outside. After that, return to the fortress as soon as possible! Otherwise, when the enemy's air force comes out, I can only collect your corpses!”
Ander smiled." Boss, we haven't had any decent battles since the establishment of our Magic Brigade. Don't worry, it's up to us this time!"”
"Yes, I believe you. Oh right, I'll assign Sharmie to you. You have to make good use of her!”Ximen Yu said with an evil smile!
Ander looked at his boss in shock. Oh my god, that was a tier 9 dragon. How cool would it be if it cast magic!
Ximen Yu continued," Spread out all the snipers in your team. Hide near the Behemoth camp and hunt freely. I don't believe that I won't make a mess of them!"”
After everything was arranged properly, the Wolf Fang Cavalry swaggered straight into the Red River Valley, the hinterland of the Behemoths!
As expected, the Behemoth Air Force soon discovered this unit. A large number of Eagle People and Vulture People began to prepare to surround and annihilate this unit of cavalry! The Behemoth camp also sent out a regiment of wolf riders to join the encirclement. Both sides began a ridiculous game of eagle catching chicks in Red River Valley!
Night fell, Behemoth Military Camp!
Prince Kemp and a few of the Fox Tribe's military strategists were planning how to attack Cappuccino Fortress when they suddenly felt the ground tremble. A series of ear-piercing explosions entered the ears of the Lion Tribe's Prince!
When he staggered out of the military tent, he was stunned by the scene in front of him!
Fire, raging flames! The entire military camp had turned into a sea of fire! A Twin-legged Flying Dragon was circling above the Behemoth Army Camp without any fear! Kemp roared," Don't panic! Don't panic! Cavalry Unit, kill that damn Wyvern!"”
After all, the Centaurs were the most elite archers. After Kemp gave the order, they began to gather and fire at the Wyverns in the sky!
At this moment, a Golden Dragon appeared in front of all the Behemoths. This dragon flapped its huge wings and spread the dragon language magic from its mouth across the Behemoths! Although the Behemoth's air force had taken to the sky to intercept them, the scorching dragon breath whistled over and over again! In the end, she had also become a moth flying towards fire! At this moment, Sharmie was the absolute ruler of the sky, because the sky belonged to the giant dragons!
Kemp looked at the dragon in the sky, whose sword was about to be crushed by the angry lion. However, he knew that without the Behemoth, they would not be able to fight against the dragon! However, the Behemoth's warlike passion did not allow them to retreat. They still held their weapons and launched attacks again and again!
A rain of arrows and javelins flew towards Sharmie, but the dragon with its powerful physical immunity didn't care at all. It continued to leisurely cast its dazzling and deadly spells!
As the saying goes, even ants can kill an elephant! Sharmie didn't push her luck and instead learned to stop! After rewarding the ground with a few spells, it wagged its tail and flew back to the fortress!
Ander, who was outside the camp, was still commanding the magic brigade to set fire to the campsite! However, the Behemoth's camp was simply too vast. Just relying on these hundreds of mages was simply not enough! Kahn had no choice but to pull out a team of archers to join the fire!
However, the good times did not last long. Soon, the Behemoths, who had stabilized themselves, found this group of damned Magicians. Two full regiments of wolf riders came! The black torrents in the flames charged forward like ferocious beasts. The Behemoth Air Force also began to join the battlefield, ready to tear the mages apart in front of Cappuccino Fortress!
Faced with this sudden attack, all the Magicians were worried. Once the wolf riders got close to them, they would only die! Moreover, the Behemoth Air Force in the sky above the battlefield was even more ferocious. They were not afraid of the arrows that filled the sky at all. They were all on steroids! Behemoth's bravery was truly demonstrated by them! It was not the beginning, nor the end. From the beginning to the end, bravery was the undefeatable soul of the Behemoth army!
