Unparalleled Beast Soul

Chapter 230 The Road to Return

Leon woke up from the coma. 【】

The cost of using the Soul Devouring Armguard is huge. He was drained of a lot of blood, and his energy and spirit were severely depleted after the fierce battle. Even if he regained his sanity, his body was full of power.

Leon found himself leaning against a warm, soft embrace, and the familiar scent made him sniffle involuntarily.

"Are you awake?" There was a whisper of joy in my ear.

Leon opened his eyes, Qiangwei's bright and beautiful eyes were the first to come into sight, full of joy and comfort.

A warm current surged in his heart, and he nodded vigorously.

The galloping snow camel stopped, and the surrounding Thunder Beast warriors and soldiers surrounded them one after another.

"Boss, you're finally awake, that's great."

"Where are we now?" Leon straightened up and asked.

He and Qiangwei rode together, surrounded by a vast snow field, and there were fine pieces of snow under the cloudy sky, but the wind was not strong, so it was not particularly cold.

"You have been in a coma for two days, and we are on our way. We are now in the northwest of Valen City, near the barbarian Black Iron Fortress." Rock Hammer said, "If you don't wake up, we don't know where to go. "

The Black Iron Fortress is a strategic point on the border between the extreme northern barbarians and the Beamon Kingdom. It is guarded by two legions and is one of the frontier base camps for the barbarians to fight against the orcs.

Before Leon planned to raid Linsk Harbor, he planned the retreat route.

Winning the victory is the responsibility and mission of the Thunder Beast Brigade, but in this barbarian territory, it is easy to pick the fruits of victory, but it is very difficult to get back unscathed.

After the Battle of Linsk Port, it is strange that the barbarians have not reacted, and they will definitely not lack the means to quickly transmit news.

As long as you know that the Thunder Beast Squad is coming along the coastline, the Linsk Fortress will definitely send troops south to pursue it, and the troops from Valen City will definitely intercept it in advance.

Therefore, retreating from the original route is tantamount to self-defeating. Leon's strategy is to detour from the western front, pass through the area between Valen City and the Black Iron Fortress, and return to Beamon's territory.

"It's been two days..." Leon pondered for a moment, and asked, "Has the news been sent back to the third battle group?"

"Everything has been sent back, we only have the last green falcon left now"

The Thunder Beast Squad carried five green falcons for transmitting messages. This small bird is fast and good at identifying directions, and it is most suitable for transmitting information to the rear.

However, this transfer is also one-sided, because the Thunder Beast Brigade cannot stay in one place, and it is difficult to find them again when the released blue falcons come back. Therefore, the third battle group can only receive reports, but cannot give feedback.

"Let's change the plan, now turn to the southeast, and go back from the original route" Leon said in a deep voice, his black eyes flashing with a stunning divine light, "send the last message to the third battle regiment, asking them to pretend to attack Valen City , to welcome us back"

This is two days of surprise, as long as the barbarians are not too stupid, they will definitely find that the Thunder Beast Brigade did not return from the same route, and the area between Valen City and the Black Iron Fortress will inevitably become their focus of defense.

So the Lightning Beast Brigade turned around again, precisely to make the enemy unable to grasp their exact position.

However, Leon's decision was based on judgment and speculation, and there were too many uncontrollable factors on the battlefield, so who could guarantee that the barbarians would stick to the eastern front of Valen City.

Therefore, the cooperation of the third battle group is very important. Once they launch an attack, the surrounding enemy forces will inevitably withdraw to the city for defense. The barbarians will never easily discard this strategic point that has been obtained with great difficulty.

At that time, the Thunder Beast Brigade can take the opportunity to break through the enemy's interception line and return to the safe zone smoothly.

Soon, the last blue falcon of the Thunder Beast Squad was released.

This bird carrying the hope of the Thunder Beast Brigade flapped its wings vigorously and flew straight into the sky. After hovering over the snow field for a while, it quickly flew towards the southeast and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

The Thunder Beast Brigade turned around and headed towards the eastern front

While they were looking for their way home against the wind and snow, in Baishi City, hundreds of miles away, the headquarters of the Third Battle Group was caught in a heated debate.

In front of the conference table, a noble officer stood up and said loudly: "I seriously doubt the information sent by the Thunder Beast Brigade. It may be a bit credible that they raided Hailanji and wiped out two barbarian transport teams, but they raided Linsk Port and burned All the supplies in the port area, and the two frost giant war puppets were destroyed during the retreat."

"Everyone, is this Leon a god? He only has [-] warriors and only four warriors. How could he do this?"

"It doesn't matter that he lied about the record, but if we were deceived by his lies and made wrong judgments, which led to failure, then who can bear the responsibility?"

The officer's words have been recognized by a large number of people.

It has been seven or eight days since the Thunder Beast Brigade left Baishi City and entered the Arctic Ice Field. During this period, several battle reports were sent back one after another through the blue falcon.

If they can accept the Battle of Hailanji, the surprise attack on Linsk Port will be incredible. You must know that next to Linsk Port is the Linsk Fortress, which is heavily guarded by barbarians. Back then, the Kingdom sent out two legions and failed to take it down. How could a team of less than a thousand people achieve such brilliant results?

So many officers and staff think that Leon is falsely reporting his achievements, but there are also some commanders who are skeptical, and the battle group has held several meetings for this.

"According to the battle report they sent back, the Thunder Beast Brigade used the captured barbarian materials and equipment to disguise themselves as a barbarian transport team and sneak into the Linsk port area before successfully attacking." Another officer said: "This is completely feasible in tactics, Linsk If the enemies of the fortress are unguarded, they have a chance of victory"

"Then how do you explain the destruction of the two frost giants?" The noble officer just now retorted with a sneer: "With their five low-level warriors, they can defeat the pursuit team of Linsk Fortress and destroy their two war puppets. Do you think this is possible?""

"I'm afraid we can only find out when they come back..."

"Okay." Count Octavia, who had remained silent all this time, stood up, and his majestic lion eyes swept over the faces of the two officers who were arguing: "Stop arguing."

"Regardless of whether the battle report sent back by the Thunder Beast Brigade is true or not, we must take action. Ugru's expeditionary force has already started, and we can no longer do things here." The count said seriously: "Actually, we must It is not difficult to understand the truth about the Thunder Beast Squad, I have sent the battle report back to the Kingdom, and there are spies from the Northern Garrison in Linsk Port, as long as the news from there is passed, everything will be clear."

"For Baron Leon, I personally tend to believe in his quality. If his battle report is true and false, then the enemy army in Valen City will inevitably fall into a state where they cannot get supplies in a short period of time, which is even more rare for us. Opportunity"

Anyone with a little understanding of military affairs will understand how much supplies a team of tens of thousands of people needs to consume every day, and Valen City originally belonged to the barbarians. When the city was broken, all the supplies stored there were burned. They have to rely on transportation supplies from the rear.

Once the material supply of Linsk Harbor is cut off, it will undoubtedly be a fatal blow to the defenders of Valen City, and it is also a fighter that the Third Battle Group cannot miss.

Count Octavia's authority in the Third Battle Group is unquestionable. Although most of the commanders still have some doubts, no one dares to question his decision.

The headquarters immediately began preparations for the plan to recapture the city of Valencia.

During the time when the Thunder Beast Brigade left, the third battle group did not stay in Baishi City. They scouted and haunted the surrounding areas of Valen City, and they knew the situation in Valen City well.

Near the afternoon, a knight hurried into the headquarters and handed a letter to Count Octavia.

The count opened it for a few moments, and his expression became a little weird: "It's the report from the Thunder Beast Squadron. They turned from the area between Wallen City and the Black Iron Fortress to the east of Wallen City, and then made a detour to withdraw again. They hope that our third war regiment will make a feint attack." Valen City to cooperate”

All the officers looked at each other in blank dismay, and many of them couldn't help but have a thought in their hearts, could it be that the results of the Thunder Beast Brigade are real?

But how is this possible?

"Unbelievable, incredible"

At the same moment, in Bingfeng City, the capital of the extreme northern province of the Behemoth Kingdom, a staff officer broke into the meeting hall at the military headquarters of the Northern Garrison.

He was waving a piece of parchment in his hand, his face was full of shock, and the senior officers in the chamber could not help but frown at his stunned appearance.

The northern garrison is an important component of the Beamon king's team. It has a long and glorious history and undertakes the important responsibility of defending the northern border of the kingdom and resisting the invasion of barbarians.

The northern garrison has five legions with 15 soldiers, and its overall strength is second only to Shengyao Province, which has the guards.

At the same time, the northern garrison is also the organizer and commander of the extreme north expeditionary force. All important information about the expeditionary force will be sent back to Bingfeng City as soon as possible, and the high-level elites of the army in the meeting hall will issue orders.

The Kingdom's call for the Territorial Army of the Three Provinces came from the request of the Northern Garrison Army. They planned to launch a huge campaign against the barbarians in the spring and summer in order to curb the increasingly rampant invasion of the barbarians.

The extreme northern barbarians are like pastures on the prairie, they have been mowed one crop after another, and if they do not deal a heavy blow, they will spread to Beamon's territory sooner or later.

Every commander of the Northern Garrison knows this truth very well, and they have made unremitting efforts for it. . .
