Blood Dragon

23 priests... [-] cannons... as well as muskets, armor, weapons, food... Kedasa thought with some satisfaction.Facts have proved the sincerity of all parties. It seems that everyone is serious about supporting the war between the Bin tribe and the vampires.Especially the Ryan people, they actually gave all kinds of weapons, including cannons, to the Bin tribe who were once sworn enemies.

But in fact, if you carefully measure it, this is not outrageous.Although this is a considerable amount of supplies, compared with the expenditure of a war, it is really insignificant.They only paid this level of price in exchange for a decisive battle between the Bin clan and the vampires, which is indeed profitable.

"Excuse me, when will the war start?" This time it was the leading priest who asked.His tone was very rude, and it could be seen that he was quite dissatisfied with the situation just now.You must know that although the Bin tribe also believes in the gods of the star field on the surface, there are still many ancient beliefs in them.Although I don't know the exact number, there is no doubt that a large part of them still believe in those hypocritical ancient gods.In the past, there have been disputes in the church more than once over whether the Bin people are considered to be a force in the religious circle, but in the end they decided to recognize their religious status.

Belleel slightly opened his eyelids (he had been closing his eyes just now), and looked at the priest who was speaking.Only at this moment, a sharp look flashed in his lazy eyes.

Kaidasa didn't realize that he was just falling into a kind of ecstasy of power.The fact in front of us is that on the surface these materials are given to the entire Bin tribe, but in fact all of them are in the hands of Kaidasa at this moment.Even if they want to share next, they can only get a very limited share.It won't take long for other tribes to bow to Kaidasa due to lack of supplies. "It will take more than ten days. We need enough time to settle down our people."

Belle closed his eyes.On the surface, it seemed that he had kept his eyes closed and rested his mind all the time, and only Robin, who had been paying attention to him, saw a smug smile on the corner of his mouth.

At this time, more people came.It was a real big meeting and the whole place was packed with people, many of whom Robin had seen at Ben Clan meetings before.

Robin didn't quite understand what was going on in the discussion.Because they all communicate in the local dialect of the Bin people.Although almost all dialects are inextricably related to the common language, Robin still can't understand it when he speaks very fast.But there was more than one person who couldn't understand.At least the priests of those churches couldn't understand it either.Robin saw that the leading priest was stern and silent, but his eyes showed a trace of confusion and confusion.As for Bellel, Robin could have heard him snoring.

"Gentlemen," Kedaza suddenly called out in Common, and the others' voices fell silent as he spoke. "In terms of tactics, I decided to follow General Beryl's suggestion. This is General Beryl, the excellent commander who once commanded the army to flatten Kalean, the 'Vampire Killer'."

Belle stood up abruptly.His reaction speed was so fast that Robin even wondered if he heard his snoring just now.But at least on the outside, Belleur doesn't look like he just woke up.

"Everyone, I believe everyone has seen what I wrote. In fact, my idea is very simple, that is to maximize strengths and avoid weaknesses." Baylor paused to strengthen his tone. "What is the advantage of the vampire? His undead army is a fallen and dangerous enemy. They don't need to eat, drink and rest. They don't know how to retreat, and they can't be bought. This is the advantage of the enemy. But in turn, the vampire's undead The Legion was born purely for war. They don't know how to operate machinery, build, or even dig trenches. They don't understand danger, when they need to retreat, and when they need to attack. What they lack the most is, It is the ability to attack and defend the city. Based on this, I formulated this tactic, and I would like to call it the 'fortress advancing tactic'."

"I believe everyone has seen the map. Between Sylvania and Mir City, there are mountains and mountains, and there is only one road between them. The vampires occupied Sylvania by relying on fear, deceit and lies, so they Our army will never be allowed to enter Sylvania. Because once we enter Sylvania, it is tantamount to declaring the bankruptcy of his reign of terror. He will definitely block us on this road! And we can rely on the fortress to advance Tactics, accumulating small victories into big victories, destroying the main force of vampires in one fell swoop..."

It was the first time for Robin to see Baylor's impassioned speech, so full of confidence, this high emotion unconsciously affected everyone.When Baylor finished speaking, most people were applauding, while a small number of people were whispering.Robin believed they were all admiring Bellel's plan.

"My lord, what you said is really good." When Belleil was over, Robin couldn't help leaning forward. "I almost thought you were telling the truth."

"I'm telling the truth." Belle replied.

At this time, Kaidasa announced the end of the meeting.

"Didn't you say that this is for..." Robin asked in surprise. "Hmm..." He looked around, although he couldn't see who was paying attention to him, he still didn't dare to say it.

"The reason may not be this, but my words are not false." Belle replied softly. "The vampires will indeed stop them on this road... In other words, if the Bin tribe passes through this passage between the mountains, it means that the vampires have completely lost."

"why?"

"Because there is only one vampire," answered Baelier. "They don't have a second commander. The undead army can't divide their troops."

"But, didn't the vampires organize a rebel army?" No matter what, they already had a few reliable subordinates.

"Those are ordinary people. At the beginning, perhaps in order to conceal the truth as much as possible, the vampire did not accept the necromancers to join. He did get the necromancers to join after he officially occupied Sylvania. This is Under such circumstances, the loyalty of the necromancer is questionable, and the army is handed over to the command of someone who does not trust it... Only in the most desperate situation will this be done. And the commanders of the Bin tribe need to be as many as possible. Therefore, the vampire must Stop the Bin tribe army in this valley. If we get the Bin tribe army to reach Sylvania and stand firm, it is almost equivalent to destroying the main force of the undead army." Beler replied decisively. "Those priests will lock the vampire in the battle. Once the vampire is defeated, he will have no chance to make trouble again."

At this time, the meeting has ended.Everyone else left, even Kedazar and the priests of the church.In the originally lively and crowded conference room, only Belle and Robin were left.Because in name, he is the official "temporary governor" of the local area, and his daily life is in this mansion.

"My lord, so the ideal strategy of the Bin Clan is... find a way to pass through this valley? Try to open up as many battlefields as possible, so that vampires are hard to defend against?" Robin thought.

"It's a mistake to think so. The ideal strategy of the Bin Clan is to fight the vampires in this valley."

"Why? Didn't you just say that opening multiple battlefields is a taboo for vampires."

"Robin, you have seen the map. We have also visited the field. Do you think this kind of terrain is suitable for deploying an army?"

"No." Robin replied honestly.Such terrain, except for those particularly narrow passes, other positions should be able to allow an army of about 6000 to [-] people to deploy, no more.

"That's it." Baylor pointed to the map on the wall. "Except for a small piece of relatively wide land in the middle...what is that place called? Oh, it's called Zise Stone. The entire valley is of this width, or even narrower, which is only suitable for troops of about 5000 people. And have you noticed that apart from Kaidasa and Damon, the two great elders of the Bin tribe, the size of the army of the other Bin tribe leaders is roughly this number."

"what……"

"In other words, a battle of about 5000 people is the most suitable for the Bin tribe. This kind of battle can best exert its combat effectiveness and reduce the disadvantages caused by internal disunity. Moreover, Kaidasa will also support this tactic, Because in this way, he can have the opportunity to consume the strength of other leaders in a legitimate way."

"So, the final result will be like this: the vampires will definitely deploy troops in the valley to prepare for the battle. The Bin tribe will take turns to fight the vampires in a tribe-by-tribe way. If they can win, they can Advance. If they fail, they will retreat to the inside of the prepared camp and defend against danger. The battle between the two sides has become a simple war of attrition. The Bin tribe advances gradually, building one camp after another, step by step Occupy the entire valley. There will be no decisive victory or defeat. In the end, either the Bin tribe will pay a huge price and wipe out the main force of the undead army. Then in the final battle, kill the vampires. This is the victory against the undead army The method of warfare... because humans can build strong camps as a support, but the undead legion cannot."

He finished the last few words in a slightly ambiguous tone.And Robin fully understood.

"Although casualties are inevitable, theoretically speaking, this is indeed a tactic that must win. If it is not the Bin tribe, but the Ruien people who entrust their army to my command, I will also adopt this tactic." Baylor suddenly changed the topic. "It looks like this on the surface, so the Bin tribe has no choice but to accept my suggestion..."

"surface?"

"Yes, on the surface... Robin."

"Yes, my lord."

"Get me a snack." Belleel rubbed his stomach. "I have to eat more now. When the war starts, I'm afraid I won't have a chance to eat snacks."

……

The air was filled with the stench of rotting flesh.

Kaidasa looked at the battlefield in front of him contentedly.A group of his men were burning the bodies.There are broken corpses all over the place, some fresh and some rotting.

Behind him, the soldiers in charge of building the fortifications were going all out.This level must be built before the next vampire attack.But it must be said that the vampire's offensive is really weak.The terrain here is narrow, and the undead army marches slowly.Cannon, musketry, and crossbows did a great deal of damage, wiping out at least half the enemy before the two sides entered close combat.The halberdman successfully resolved the following battle, and he only suffered few casualties.
