Lord of Arcane

Chapter 1991 Time Limit Casualties
Outside the secret place.

On the southern plain of Adofil Fortress, the Sluvand spellcasters' all-out resistance continued. Although the battle was fierce, it had to be said that this brought great obstacles to the advancement of Ye Erlan.

In the command camp, Ye Erlan's commander Adalil, who was in charge of this war, was frowning at the moment. He knew that Ye Erlan must achieve a quick victory in this war, otherwise he might be dragged into the quagmire of the war from which it was difficult to escape.

At this moment, the adjutant came to report, "Master Commander, there is news from Tavimansa that the countries have not changed yet, but the time left for us is running out. Capture Adolfair Fortress before nightfall."

"Before tomorrow night?"

Hearing such a hasty time, Adariel suddenly turned his head and looked directly into the adjutant's eyes, and asked blankly: "Do you think we can do it?"

"I think this time is indeed a bit tight, but if you use that, you may not be able to—"

But before the adjutant could say wow, Adariel interrupted him roughly, "You know you can't, why are you bragging to your superiors?"

"I--"

The adjutant's face immediately turned pale. As the adjutant of the commander in chief of the Northern Expedition, it is naturally impossible to have no background. On the contrary, he has a profound background that many elves cannot match.

Needless to say, the upper-ranking family members, there is no one who can get along with the commander who is not a member of the upper-ranking family, but his real identity is the nephew of King Mian.

To a certain extent, it can be regarded as an eye placed by the Crown Prince next to Commander Adariel, but at this moment, the adjutant noticed the expressionless eyes of the commander, and couldn't help but think of what Uncle Crown Prince said to him before departure——

Adariel is a trustworthy elder, he listens more, learns more, and less self-assertive!
But how many young elves can ignore the merits of a war of extermination!Even if he is not the subject of meritorious service, as long as he participates, he will definitely share in the feat and glory of victory.

In this case, it is not a big mistake to be a little eager for quick success, but the mistake of the adjutant is that he is in the wrong position.

If he is just a grassroots soldier, no matter how radical his ideas are, it will be difficult to have much impact on the war itself.

But in such a position as an adjutant, he has many special backgrounds, and if there is a slight difference, the impact must be extremely far-reaching.

Adariel, as a close minister of the crown king, naturally had his own news channel on Taivimansa's side. At first, he couldn't believe it when he received the news, but he was still willing to believe in the flexible junior in his heart.

But at this moment when the adjutant came to report, one can imagine the anger in his heart. If the other party was not Mian Wang's nephew, he wished he could tear him up on the spot.

"Stay in the camp recently, don't walk around casually. If the next battle goes well, then I will pretend that this incident never happened. If the battle goes wrong, you should think more about the way to die!"

After Adariel finished his sentence coldly, he ignored the other party. Although the rear's understanding of the battle situation on the front line was a little off, an order was an order, and he could only choose to accept it.

As for afterwards, regardless of the outcome of the war, the political life of his temporary adjutant can be said to have ended.

……

After a while, Adariel's real adjutant, the herald who is currently commanding the camp, arrived. After entering the barracks, he first glanced at the gilded adjutant who was in a daze at the moment, and then saluted the commander respectfully.

"Sir, are you looking for me?"

"Wenders, here you come."

Seeing the arrival of his trusted former adjutant, Adariel's expression eased, "How about the casualties of the soldiers?"

In fact, there is a special record officer for statistics on this issue. The herald may or may not understand these, and it does not affect his own duties.

But Wenders obviously did not regard himself as an ordinary herald. Hearing the commander's question, he answered almost without hesitation:
"In the direction of the main advance, our casualties are minimal. Only a few mages have mental breakdown due to excessive casting, but in other directions, the casualties are quite serious. According to current statistics, more than a thousand brave fighters have gone one step ahead of time. In the Homeland of Avando, the number of wounded has exceeded [-], and most of them can fully recover after the war, but a small number of them will be permanently disabled."

If you compare this number of casualties with the Battle of Seven Forts more than 1000 years ago, it may not even be a fraction, but you must know that Yeerlan has "supervised" Sluvand for thousands of years.

Sluvande, who has been suppressed and castrated for a long time, can still cause such casualties to the Yeerlan army. If it was Sluvande in its heyday, what kind of casualties would be!

As the commander-in-chief of Ye'erlan in the current era, Adariel really can't imagine how Ye'erlan defeated Sluvande more than 1000 years ago.

Even now, he was very shocked by Sluwende's will to resist and even his ability to resist. Before he set off, he thought it should be an extremely easy "acceptance" journey.

And this is actually the cognition of many Yeerlan elves. It was true at first, but as the front line advanced, Sluvand's will to resist became stronger and stronger.

Even those areas that have been successfully taken over by Ye'erlan continue to report the activities of the resistance organization.

Just now, Adariel learned that because of a gilded junior, Taivimansa had issued an order that seemed very dangerous to him, which made him have a thought deep in his heart that he could never get rid of ——

Could it be that Ye'erlan really couldn't conquer Sluvand?

"How are the soldiers feeling?" Adariel asked again.

"Because the fighters in the regular army were not exposed to the frontline battle situation, their emotions were very stable. Although there were casualties, the previous progress was true."

If there are regular troops, there will naturally be irregular troops, which usually refer to spellcaster troops, but Yeerlan does not have an organized spellcaster army, and every war needs to be recruited temporarily.

Especially for high-ranking mages, the use of recruitment may not be enough, and the use of "invitation" should be used.

Therefore, the members of the caster's army are often complex and have different thoughts. If it is a smooth battle, there is no problem. Once there is a little trouble, the fighting spirit will inevitably be shaken.

Although Wenders didn't give a clear answer, he also let Adariel understand the general situation - the current mood of the caster troops should not be so stable!

"These traitors!"

Of course, Adariel could only scold in his heart for these words. If he really said such things publicly, even if he was a high-ranking mage himself, he would inevitably be excluded from the core of power.
