This means that the commander of Roland City, Wen Shidun, has already planned to close the net and annihilate the expeditionary force.
At most, I just need to hold on until the day after tomorrow, and everything will be over.
In fact, Qiu Lu’s guess was not wrong.
In the previous life, this expeditionary force was defeated in just five days by Roland City's counterattack. Now, with Roberts's prophecy, Roland City has taken the lead and its advantage is obviously greater.
What he thought was right, but could someone make him fulfill his wish?
“It’s pretty persistent.”
I held Ahri in my arms and looked at the fortress in the distance that was still impregnable, feeling a little surprised.
However, Qiu Lu's resistance was somewhat within his expectations.
"Yesterday was just the opening, today is the main event."
Qiu Lu, who was taking a short rest with his eyes closed, suddenly received news from his trusted subordinate. His eyes, which were already bloodshot, turned red in an instant.
"What's wrong, cousin?"
The person next to him, who was directing the guild members in the channel to draw a circle on the ground to make a prison, asked curiously.
"Alice's guilds gathered their men and headed towards our fortress group in the Karen area."
Qiu Lu gritted his teeth and spoke almost word by word with a cold voice.
Alice, Dark Irene, Glorious Alliance, and Against the Tide, at least more than 100,000 players. With such a large number and the direction they are heading to, anyone can see what their purpose is.
It's nothing more than wanting to take advantage of the fact that most of the Blue Shadow's troops are concentrated on the Blue Fortress for defense, and attack other fortress areas.
Chapter 70: Lure the Tiger Away from the Mountain
Although Qiu Lu has moved the guild headquarters to the Azure Fortress, those fortresses are also important economic sources for Azure Shadow, or basically every fortress is one.
If they were allowed to attack, Blue Shadow would at least lose an arm, if not its entire foundation would be destroyed.
When Huadiweijiao heard the news, he was also shocked and angry.
"What should we do, cousin? We don't have many people to spare."
Qiu Lu was also aware of the guild’s current situation.
It has to be said that Alice's action this time was indeed decisive. He had not received any news before this.
Qiu Lu rubbed his aching forehead and said in a deep voice, "Let Keju take 20,000 people in the Azure Fortress, and send Wenrou Ke to draw 30,000 people from the Iron Stone Castle, and use the teleportation array to rush over as quickly as possible to provide support."
Ironstone Castle is a fortress originally built by Blue Shadow in the More area, and there are also two low-level fortresses surrounding it.
However, compared with the Azure Fortress, the three fortresses of Ironstone Castle at the corners of the battlefield were under less threat, so the Azure Shadow only arranged 60,000 people for defense.
And according to the news from the gentle passerby, even these 60,000 people seem redundant.
Fifty thousand people may seem like a lot, but Alice has more than a hundred thousand men on her side. Even though the fortresses in the Karen area have a total of eighty thousand men, the gap in individual strength is still there, and it is still not enough.
"I'll tell Brother Hao and ask him to help."
Qiu Lu finally breathed a sigh of relief and made a decision.
Although doing so will lower Blue Shadow's reputation in the eyes of the other party, there is nothing that can be done about it at this point, and Brother Hao will surely understand.
In fact, when Alice made such a big move, Yuwen Hao naturally got the news. Even without Qiu Lu's request, he had already gathered people from the guild alliance below.
When Qiu Lu just contacted Yuwen Hao, Yuwen Hao had already organized nearly 300,000 people from the guild alliance under him.
When Blue Shadow and Alice were fighting before, Yuwen Hao was able to treat it as a minor fight and did not take action for the sake of his face.
But now Alice has already taken action to attack the fortress, which is no longer a fight. Yuwen Hao naturally cannot ignore it. After all, when beating a dog, one also needs to look at the owner.
However, just when he was about to transfer these 300,000 people to support the Blue Shadow fortresses, and possibly directly destroy Alice, he suddenly received news from Wenren Shanshui that shocked him.
While he was making arrangements, the Imperial Epic, Eternal Spire, Star Myth, Rose Heart and Ares, several of the top guilds in the empire, also organized a considerable number of people at the same time.
And based on the information sent back by the spies.
The targets revealed by the presidents of these guilds in the channel were also aimed at the guild fortresses from which he had transferred personnel.
While the final action is unclear, the meaning is clear.
Not only that, even more than a dozen secondary guilds such as Xingsha chose the same approach and made their positions clear.
That is to choose to fight against the guild alliance under his command, and it is very likely to form an alliance. Otherwise, it would be impossible for so many guilds to act in such a consistent manner.
When, why, and who was it that was able to bring together so many guilds with complex interests? The Sky Group spent so much money and effort to integrate the guild alliance.
If there was a capital as huge as that of the Sky Group moving in, there was no reason why he would not receive any news.
"Alice..."
Yuwen Hao tapped his fingertips and repeated the name.
He didn't know what role Alice played in all this, which actually caused so many guilds to express their positions at the same time, or perhaps an alliance had already appeared before this, and Alice was just a fuse.
Although all this was just Yu Wenhao's guess, he naturally couldn't help but be careful at this time.
"Withdraw those people and send the Holy Angels to provide support."
After receiving the news from Yuwen Hao, Qiu Lu's face changed and he frowned.
"Cousin, what happened?"
Seeing this, Draw a Prison on the Ground asked in confusion.
"Brother Hao can't take action. It seems that the Imperial Epic and Eternal Spire guilds have formed an alliance. If Brother Hao wants to organize a team, they will also attack the fortress of the guild alliance."
"How could this happen? What should we do?"
"The Sky Slayer will bring 80,000 Holy Angels to support us. Together with the defenses inside the fortress, we should be able to hold on."
Qiu Lu said in a deep voice.
On the other side, after receiving Yuwen Hao's arrangement, the God and Demon Shitian immediately took his members to the Karen area and met up with Keju and Gentle Passerby from the Blue Shadow in the fortress group.
Being able to provide support to Alice one step ahead of her is certainly not without cost.
Both cost at least tens of thousands in transmission fees.
This allowed them to make all kinds of preparations for war in the fortress more than ten minutes in advance, such as setting up the few war weapons in the fortress and gathering people to form formations inside and outside the fortress.
However, what they didn't expect was that they had to wait for half an hour.
There was no sign of any enemy outside the fortress.
"This is how the same thing?"
The God and Demon Shitian frowned, his heart full of doubts.
When Shenmo Shitian got the information from the spy, his doubts became even more serious.
Alice, the Glorious Alliance, and the people from Against the Tide have split up into several groups and gone to the fortress area to kill monsters and level up.
"What on earth are Alice and her group doing?"
When Qiu Lu heard this news, he couldn't help but frown deeply.
He hesitated for a moment, but still gave orders to the God and Demon Shi Tian.
"Shitian, just in case, keep a close eye on the fortress."
"Okay, leave this to me. I want to see what these guys are up to."
After hanging up the communication with Shenmo Shitian, Qiu Lu was making various adjustments within the guild to deal with the attacks of the monsters and the expeditionary force outside, while also thinking about the meaning of Alice's actions.
Although Alice's actions restricted part of the Blue Shadow and Holy Angel's manpower, the other side also wasted a lot of manpower.
Even if members are arranged to level up in other areas, they can stop losses by avoiding detection under other pretexts.
But anyone can see what Alice's intention is, and it is also a blow to the guild's reputation.
There was no reason for Alice to do something so thankless.
unless--
Alice's initial target was not the fortress group in the Karen area.
Qiu Lu was shocked by the idea.
But soon, the news coming from the prison confirmed his guess.
"Cousin, Ironstone Castle has been attacked by Alice, the Glorious Alliance, and the Tide Against!"
Chapter 71 The Main Show Begins
"!?"
Tune the tiger away from the mountain.
A word suddenly popped up in Qiu Lu's mind.
After he realized what was happening, he gritted his teeth and punched the wall hard.
He realized that he had been fooled by Alice.
Because of Alice's action, personnel from the Blue Fortress and Ironstone Castle were transferred to support the Karen area. It turned out to be just a feint used as a cover, which further weakened the already limited defense force in the Ironstone Castle.
No, it might not even be just a fake.
"Cousin, we in Ironstone Castle can't hold out for much longer. We must send someone to support us as soon as possible."
Draw a circle to make a prison and said anxiously.
"No, we can't transfer any more people."
"Brother Hao is dealing with the expeditionary forces, and he is also restricted by those big guilds."
Qiu Lu forced himself to calm down. "If we ask Shi Tian to come over for support, Alice's people in the Karen area may gather and attack immediately. And even if we rush over, it is estimated that Alice's people will soon capture the fortress, and it will be useless."
"But according to the news from Ironstone Castle, they should be able to hold out until reinforcements arrive, cousin."
"How do you know that Alice didn't do this on purpose? We can't fall into Alice's trap. According to the information passed on by my people in Alice, there are at least 100,000 people there. How can the Ironstone Castle hold it?"
Qiu Lu's words woke him up and made him break out in a cold sweat on his back.
Yes, how did he know that this was not a fake created by Alice.
If Shenmo Shitian really came to support, the fortress in the Karen area might fall. Trying to take care of both ends might end up not being able to take care of either, and falling completely into Alice's trap.
"So... we can only abandon Ironstone Castle?"
He said angrily, "Draw a circle on the ground to make a prison."
They have never been treated like this since they took over Blue Shadow.
Qiu Lu rubbed his forehead and sighed, then slumped back in his chair as if he had used up all his strength. "Yes, we must first defend the fortress here. Other matters can only be dealt with after the events of this expedition are over."
Under normal circumstances, he would never be so embarrassed.
The incident of the key expeditionary force's invasion limited most of the Blue Shadow's combat power, and Yuwen Hao also focused on helping to deal with the fortress groups of the Oath and Valhalla, and responding to the attack of the main force of the expeditionary force.
Even if he had other people from the guild alliance, they were constrained by other large guilds and could not give full play to their abilities.
The combination of various factors has led to the current predicament of Blue Shadow.
"As long as you hold down the Azure Fortress, I will naturally take back the Ironstone Castle. Just wait, Alice."
Qiu Lu clenched his fists.
After that, Zemo, Mishui and others contacted Qiulu one after another and expressed their "concern" about the Ironstone Castle, but Qiulu dismissed them one by one and told them to focus on the matters in the Blue Fortress for the time being.
"This guy has grown a lot and is much smarter than before."
After hearing the news from Hui Liunian, I couldn't help but look at Qiu Lu with a higher eye.
If it was the previous Demon Killer, it would probably fall into the trap here very quickly, but failure doesn’t matter, after all, it is just one of the DLCs and does not affect the overall plan.
After informing Sister Maple Leaf that they no longer needed to disguise themselves and should focus on capturing the Iron Stone Castle.
I used the Demon King's power on the vast herd of beasts in the distance.
decree.
An ability that can greatly enhance the monster that issues the decree, which was demonstrated during the Beast Tide.
After the Heart of Herontis was upgraded to level 4, it naturally became more powerful. Moreover, it also included the arrangement of using extra energy.
