Real elves vs fake elves

"If they win, then don't do anything."
"If they are about to fail, come to their aid."
"If they are in a situation where both sides suffer losses, then both sides will be eliminated."
The courtiers took the order and stepped aside. The White Deer King stood up and walked to the huge French window, looking down at this not very big city and the people below.
I have to say, she simply loves the feeling of looking down on everyone.
"Aenarion."
Stretching out his hand and pointing in the direction of Lothern, the White Deer King's eyes became a little confused.
"Lightborn."
"Let me see what's different about you."
If there is any difference between this king and the other elven kings, it is that she has a serious collecting addiction.
The most popular anecdote about this lady is her 300 male lovers. Other elf nobles would have to be polite even if they robbed them by force. But she was different. She sent people to rob them with swords. But even if she robbed them, she didn't enjoy them herself. She gave them to her subordinates as rewards. Even if she gave them to her subordinates, these men were still her male lovers.
All in all, this girl is really weird.
………………
Starry night, dense forest, an army of soldiers and horses.
This is the real armed force of the White Deer Royal Court. Apart from the conscripts of about 400 people, they are all regular troops who have received formal training. Among them are knights with superb martial arts and excellent equipment. It can be said that this is an armed force that cannot be underestimated.
If this level of armed forces were deployed on the elf border, how could human slave-raiding teams come and go as easily as the wind?
Standing in the middle of the team, the second princess of the Bailu family was wearing a gorgeously decorated robe with only a few pieces of armor embellished on certain parts of her body. It looked more decorative than practical. If it weren't for a war, people who didn't know would have thought it was some strange role-playing.
The knights' "excellent equipment" are mostly of the same nature. Bikini warriors are quite common. The most common outfit is a three-piece set of bikini, long gloves, and long boots. The only thing that can be considered iron is the pauldron on the shoulder, which is just one piece.
The whole look is like a geek looking ecstatic and a macho man crying.
Chapter 57: Mission Impossible
There are scattered villages, endless wheat fields, neat and uniform orchards, and livestock walking leisurely on the country paths.
This is the scene in the countryside of Phoenix King's Court, which is very similar to an ordinary elven manor, except that it is more abundant and prosperous.
"The agricultural community of the Phoenix Royal Court is known for its large scale and wide dispersion. The nearest livestock farm is about ten kilometers away from here. There are not many people engaged in farming, and a large number of wheat field dolls have been put to use."
In front of Princess Bailu II, a knight was reporting the situation here to her.
"Everyone is very excited. The richness here is beyond our imagination. This operation will definitely bring us enough capital."
"The place on the eternal platform will surely belong to you."
The second princess nodded modestly, not showing too much excitement about the compliments.
For this operation, she spent almost all her family wealth and mobilized all the connections she could. It can be said that she gambled everything on this military operation. Because she had to tear off the biggest piece of meat when all the surrounding forces were eyeing Lothern.
"Have we contacted our accomplice?"
The knight nodded: "I have made contact and provided the defense map of Lothern. As you expected, there are only about a hundred full-time combatants in Lothern, and the rest are insignificant militia."
"She also said that she would lead the way for us if necessary. She knew how to capture Lothern's arsenal, granary, and administrative hall as quickly as possible."
The second princess frowned slightly when she heard this: "She is so enthusiastic all of a sudden? Why?"
Knight: "She said that if you want her to do this, the prerequisite is to give her a knight title, and a canonized knight with land, and she has to choose the land herself."
After these words, the second princess's brows relaxed.
That's no problem.
She knew clearly how hostile her "insider" was to her, but if she made such a request, it was only to gain some benefits for herself before the fall of Lothern.
It is very normal to have such thoughts, and people who have such thoughts are the easiest to be exploited.
"Promise her, and after we capture Lothern, I will personally grant her the status of knight."
Night Raid; Group Lu, 9493'⑥13⑤ After all, he was only promised the identity of a knight, and other requirements such as land were not mentioned.
The interest groups behind her need enough resources and wealth to ensure loyalty and stability, and her resources are not enough to reward an outsider.
Besides, most of her subordinates are rangers and knights, who have not yet taken the lead in obtaining land and wealth. If she rashly gives these things to an outsider who has just surrendered to her, it will definitely cause dissatisfaction among her subordinates.
"Everyone, speed up the march. We must capture Lothern before that fake Lightborn returns!"
With the Second Princess's shout, the marching speed of the team of about 800 people increased again.
It has been improved a little bit. From this point of view, the organization and eliteness of this army are quite good in the whole world.
………………
In Lothern's temporary command center, Daxi stood in front of the sand table, thinking with her head down. Relevant information was constantly sent into the room, and new instructions were constantly sent out.
All in all, this sister made a skirmish involving just over a thousand people on both sides like a strategic battle, when in fact she was just doing "micro-management".
"There are three layers of encirclement in total. With the help of the mobilized civilians, we can mobilize about 3,000 people in total."
Da Xi bit her fingers with a cold look in her eyes.
It's not that I don't want to mobilize more people, I'm just afraid of the possible blame from Aenarion when he returns.
Mobilizing the people requires money, and mobilizing too many resources is a sign of incompetence. She doesn't want to lower her score with her king.
"You can't expect my sister to just go into the encirclement. Even though she's a fool who only knows how to win people's hearts, no one can guarantee that she will suddenly become smart."
Suddenly, a sturdy elf entered the command center. After seeing Da Xi, she spoke directly without any nonsense: "They agreed to my request and gave a clear time, but did not reveal their battle plan."
Da Xi's eyes lit up when she heard this, which meant that her plan was half successful.
Next, it’s time to wait for the fish to take the bait.
A large number of orders were issued to the combat troops, and a tight ambush circle was gradually formed. All the soldiers and civilians were on high alert. The whole of Lothern became less prosperous and more solemn.
The war is approaching, time is passing by, and as time goes by, everyone becomes a little nervous.
... ...
Da Xi thought she had planned everything, but after all, she was no different from her sister. Her experience in Lothern did make her grow a little, but not too much. When she was making arrangements for the battle plan, she still unconsciously began the weird operation of "the enemy needs to follow my steps."
In some ways, the two princesses of the White Deer Royal Court are still “equally matched rivals”.
Now the Second Princess Bailu is holding a dagger decorated with various gorgeous gems. The hilt is firmly held in her hand, and the blade is inserted into the body of an elf.
Inside the sturdy elf who was responsible for luring them into the ambush.
"Idiot, do you really think I would put all my chips on one person?"
"On the body of someone who wants me dead at any moment?"
The dagger twirled and blood began to gush out, but there was no pain on the sturdy elf's face, only disappointment.
It seems that the adults' plan has failed, and it has failed completely.
"Besides, I already know your background. You are my sister's close subordinate..."
"But unfortunately, she is still as naive and stupid as before. She can't beat me."
After letting go, the sturdy female elf fell straight to the ground, unable to make any sound anymore.
Taking the white silk handkerchief handed over by her subordinate, the second princess wiped her hands casually, and then threw the handkerchief at the sturdy female elf as if throwing away garbage.
"Let's go, destination is Lothern."
"Let my dear sister continue to wait. Her plan is still as ridiculous as before. Even if this idiot defected to Lothern, he has not made any progress."
The army of the White Deer Court continued to move forward, but it no longer arrived in Lothern at the time Yu Daxi expected, nor did it enter at a certain location according to her script.
This battle was completely beyond Daxi's control.
Chapter 58: The Feud between the Wild Elves and the Moonborn
Dark, damp, and cold, the strong female elf's strength was gradually draining away. She could feel that death was getting closer and closer to her.
There was a layer of sadness in my heart, but it wasn't too hopeless, it even felt a little funny.
Bai Lu Wang Ting's methods have not changed over the years. He still likes to kill people and dump their bodies, and then ignore them and let the unlucky people who are not yet dead be swallowed up by despair bit by bit in the darkness.
What a bunch of bastards.
Just as she was wondering when she would die, a powerful voice suddenly sounded in her ears.
"Come quickly! There's someone here. Judging from his attire, he's a ranger from Lothern. Help save him!"
"She's seriously injured, but she's still alive. Hurry up and bandage her up. I don't know if she can be saved."
Then there were some voices talking at once, and amidst the noise, the sturdy female elf slowly fell into a coma.
Before she fell into coma, the woman felt a sense of relief and relief.
Seems to be someone from the Silversteel Court? Lord Aenarion had made a backup plan. The princess was still too immature in comparison.
The fact is indeed as she guessed, Aenarion sent a letter to Miranda. Aenarion is indeed not a person who looks ahead and behind. After getting the conditions that are definitely favorable to him, he decisively took action and did not let any opportunity slip through his fingers. But he is also not a person who does not leave a way out for himself, and it is not his character to put all the weight on the gambling table.
Miranda was once again entrusted by Aenarion. This time, the Silversteel Court mobilized an army of about 300 people to prepare for the upcoming attack on Lothern.
Provide assistance.
Around the fruitful harvest of Lothern, the chess players present began to add their chips one by one.
It was late at night and the dawn had not yet appeared. It was two or three o'clock in the morning. This time was the most tiring time for both humans and elves. Choosing this time for a sneak attack was undoubtedly something that anyone with a little military knowledge should have.
Princess Bailu obviously had the same idea.
An army of about 800 people gathered quietly outside the city of Lothern without making any sound. Their discipline and eliteness were enough to carry out a beautiful night attack.
Suddenly, the fire on the walls of Lothern flickered, and it was not a random flicker. There was obviously a certain pattern in it.
The second princess' eyes lit up when she saw this scene, and then she waved her hand. Someone behind her took out a magic lamp, which also began to switch between light and dark according to a certain pattern.
It is obvious that this is a special code.
But after a moment, the lights on both sides dimmed. After waiting for more than ten minutes, a hissing noise suddenly began not far in front of the White Deer King Court’s army.
Someone is coming.
After another moment, an old human emerged from the dense forest. As soon as he appeared, he looked at the group of elves in front of him with his sharp eyes. Finally, his gaze fell accurately on the second princess.
"Mr. Joseph."
The second princess smiled brightly. As an elf noble, she had a close connection with the captain of the slave-hunting team that specialized in plundering elves. She could even be considered an old acquaintance.
Old Joseph was obviously her other bargaining chip, her real trump card.
How could a guy who was a slave in Lothern have even a little loyalty to the Phoenix Court? Especially for this old man who had been in the underworld for decades, the word loyalty might not exist in his dictionary. In front of such a person, the only bargaining chip is profit.
And she has interests that are enough to impress this old man.
Without any response to the second princess's advances, old Joseph just glanced at her, turned around and walked towards Lothern, without any intention of greeting the other party.
The second princess simply smiled at this extreme disrespect.
"I will lead you into Lothern from the dock area, not through the city gate."
"Because the dock area is still under construction, there are large areas without any supervision. You can enter the city freely from there. I don't care what you want to do when the time comes, and I don't care where you want to go."
"I'm only responsible for getting you to the dock area, that's all."
His voice was resounding and his attitude was firm, with no intention of getting close to him. If you didn't know the whole story, you might even misunderstand that there was a grudge between the two sides.
The second princess smiled and said nothing about it, then turned to look at a guy behind her who was hiding in a robe.
"Is what he said true?"
The hooded man was silent for a moment, then nodded.
"There are no lies."
The second princess smiled again upon hearing this, and was obviously very satisfied with this answer.
The road from the wild to the Lothern dock area has been repaired by less than half, and large areas of land are quite muddy, and many places are even swamps. Those things that can be called roads are basically only barely enough for people to use, and mounts such as deer and horses are basically difficult to move.
Horses are adapted to plains, deer are adapted to dense forests, and neither of them is adapted to swamps. If they rashly enter, not only will they fail to exert their combat effectiveness, but will also add a lot of trouble.
Since the battle that was about to take place was also a street fight in the city, the second princess almost did not hesitate to order her knights to temporarily abandon their mounts and fight on foot. As they watched Lothern approaching, the knights seemed to have begun to imagine a better life in the future and did not raise any objections to the order.
So, after a muddy journey, a group of more than 800 people slowly entered the dock area.
This is a new district being built in Lothern.
"It's really hard to imagine that this is just a district in Lothern. I feel that its prosperity has surpassed our White Deer City."
