I didn't open it in another world, I'm sure

As for the reason for the war, it is to suppress bandits, and other issues are drawn to verbal battles. Anyway, our strategic goal is not to occupy the entire territory of the two provinces of Leipu and Nanzhong.

I'm really curious, when we reached a tacit understanding between Dawn City and the Crusaders in these two provinces, and we reached a win-win situation with the Holy See of the Holy Light, but only Stentel was damaged, what would King Stentel do? What expression is it. "

"Master, don't worry, the staff department and the military department will definitely not disappoint the master." Mai Wei wrote down Nangong Xiao's words in handwriting, and then said, "Master, Consul Qiuba asked his subordinates to bring a message, saying that Princess Changxi was here. Knowing that Dawn City is going to start a war, she privately expressed that she can transfer the Princess Guards to Dawn City to garrison."

"She... She has a heart, she agrees, and expresses my gratitude on my behalf..." Nangong Xiao thought for a while, then took out a book from the system backpack, "This is the "Teacher's Quotations" that I wrote and compiled by myself. "Collection Class Volume" has not expressed much all the time, so let's give it to her as a gift."

Maiev took the red-covered notebook with a strange expression on her face. She really wanted to tell her master that it would be more suitable to send some luxury items such as jewelry, but seeing how cautious her master was with this notebook, she also deliberately The act of putting the data in the system backpack, I know how precious this red-covered notebook is to my owner, so I can't say much.

From the point of view of the heart, it is reasonable to give away the things you cherish the most...

"what happened?"

"No, it's nothing. The will of the master must be brought by the subordinates." Maiev restrained her thoughts, and carefully put the "Teacher's Quotations Collection Class Volume" into the space ring.

Nangong Xiao nodded, and then asked again, "I remember that Lilia often went to the elf camps in foreign lands recently, didn't she cause you any trouble?"

Maiev replied sternly, "No. Princess Lilia has a naive personality, and the clansmen in the station like her very much."

"That's good... By the way, when you go back, ask Qiu Ye to make a perfect copy of "Teacher's Quotations Collection Class Volume" and give it to Lilia."

Huh~~ The master finally didn't mess up with women, that's good.But, isn't this kind of gift a bit casual?

After Maiev sighed secretly, she responded seriously, "This subordinate knows what to do."

"very good."

Then, Nangong Xiao explained some things, and took out a lot of documents for Maiev to take back and hand them to Qiu Ye. Maiev saluted again and left directly.

After Maiev left, the temporary camp became quiet again. When Nangong Xiao was planning to continue looking through the documents, Yukinoshita Yukino who was processing vegetables and planned to make a vegetable salad for two suddenly said.

"Mr. Nangong, your task of picking up newcomers should be almost finished, right?"

Nangong Xiao nodded and said, "Well, except your level has not yet reached Level: 10, all other branches have reached the standard."

"That's it..." Yukinoshita Yukino secretly made up her mind that she must hunt harder tomorrow and reach the level as soon as possible.

At this moment, she thought, someone can't run around outside because of such a trivial matter...

Nangong Xiao saw what Yukinoshita Yukino was thinking, and said, "Don't think too much. I set up the cabinet responsibility system under the constitutional monarchy system at the beginning of the establishment of Dawn City. My current position is the same as your neon The current emperor is very similar, except that I have more comprehensive authority and more real power. Even if I am not in Aurora City, Aurora City is still functioning normally, and it is functioning very well."

Yukinoshita Yukino paused for a moment with her chopping knife, but asked curiously, "Then the documents that Nangong-jun looks at all the time..."

"This is not official business." Nangong Xiao turned the document in his hand for Yukinoshita Yukino to read.

Seeing the tedious and complex geometric design drawings and identification data above, Yukinoshita Yukino was completely stunned, unable to understand what it was.

"This is my interest. The design and planning of the new structure of the magic circuit, the design drawings of the magic industrial products, etc., if I have time, I will think about these things."

"O-I see..."

Nangong Xiao added, "Well, I'm actually very free now. I only need to grasp the general direction for military and political affairs, just like the current military operations against the two provinces of Leipu and Nanzhong. In addition to formulating a general strategy Other than the direction, other things don't require me to do it myself, or if I really want to do it myself, doesn't that mean that the civil and military people in Dawn City are not capable enough in disguise?

The so-called professional things are done by professionals. Even if I know everything, I can't steal the jobs of my subordinates, right? "

"That's true..." Yukino Yukino understood what Nangong Xiao meant, but she couldn't help sighing, "It seems that Nangong Jun's desire to control power is really low."

"I'm not interested in power. Huh? What's wrong?"

"No, I just think that Nangong Jun's words are like the world's richest man declaring that he is not interested in money, very... special."

"Oh, what I said is the truth. The establishment of Dawn City is not only an ideal test site for me, but also because Asuna and the others should not live in such a harsh social environment... Well, I hate it too I miss the social environment of this world, the modern stability and peace. Since this world does not have the stability and peace of the modern earth, I will create a social environment that I like.

If there is a stable and peaceful social environment in this world, then I will definitely not do these things.Well, that's all. "

After listening to Nangong Xiao's words, Yukino Yukino suddenly realized, and at the same time, she couldn't help sighing in her heart - this kind of "willfulness" can be described as crazy, but after success, it looks great and brilliant... .

This man is really special...

Chapter 228 The First Battle

According to the common calendar in mainland China, on December 3114, [-], the first snow stopped.

On this day, the front page of Shuguang Daily published an article "Report on Bandit Suppression", claiming that officials in the two provinces of Leipu and Nanzhong did not act, which led to the rampant banditry and the people's livelihood. In the name of justice, Shuguang City raised troops to help the two provinces rectify law and order. and so on.

Once this issue of Dawn Daily spread, it caused a sensation in the world. However, the major forces had already predicted that Dawn City would start a war, but they didn't expect it to be so soon.

Immediately, countless scouts and spies from all major forces swarmed in, in order to spy on the real military strength of Dawn City and collect more information on the actual combat of magic weapons.

The next day, the capital of Stentel made an announcement, reprimanding Dawn City for disregarding the overall situation, overstepping the law, starting a war without reason, and so on.But it was just a verbal reprimand. On the surface, King Stantel did not make any gestures that he should have. He continued to strengthen the defense and shrink the defensive circle. Anyone who is not blind can see that Stantel The king's focus is still on the orc black wolf army.

On the same day, the head of the eleven crusaders stationed in Leipp and Nanzhong provinces, General of the Holy Light—Lips Greenlandfance publicly stated that the Holy See of the Holy Light took over Leipp and Nanzhong provinces under the decree of King Stantel. The task of rectifying law and order in this province does not require Shuguang City to be troublesome, and sternly warns Shuguang City not to cross the thunder pool and so on.

However, the officials of Dawn City kept silent about King Stanter's decree and the existence of the Holy See. They only said that the bandits were rampant, and for the peace of the people, Dawn City sent troops to suppress the bandits on a certain day.

While the three parties were constantly arguing on the surface, in secret, General of the Holy Light Lips Greenlandfance officially set off after detecting that two 5-strong reorganized legions in Dawn City were targeting Leip Province. A 4-strong mixed regiment mainly composed of cavalry was deployed on the Great Plains at the junction of Leip and Kerton provinces.

With the detailed information on the front of Stantel King Capital, General Lipps of the Holy Light is very clear about the advantages and disadvantages of magic weapons. The generals also have a very intuitive understanding of magic weapons.

The only pity is that the number of magic rifles that have been purchased is too small to form an effective combat force, especially against the Dawn City army that is fully equipped with magic weapons, it is even more powerless.

Why not buy some more?

It's not that the Church of Holy Light doesn't want to buy more, but that Dawn City doesn't want to sell more at all, even the small-caliber magic artillery. This shows that Dawn City is hostile to the Holy See of Holy Light.

Therefore, General Lipps of the Holy Light knows very well that so far, in conventional warfare, he can only use the method of the orc black wolf army to avoid positional warfare and fight highly mobile harassing warfare with the Dawn City army.

However, there is also a prerequisite for this, that is, Dawn City lacks cavalry.Otherwise, it might not be possible for anyone to launch a harassing war against whom. After all, judging from the current situation, the Crusaders belong to the defensive side, and Dawn City is the offensive side.

It's a pity that Dawn City is not the Kingdom of Stentel. Dawn City has the support of dragonmen and elves, and there is no shortage of high-quality mounts.

This regular game is tough, and Lipps knows it all too well.

On December 40th, the sky was rarely cleared. On the great plain on the border of Leipu province, the Crusaders consisted of five cavalry-based mixed regiments, plus auxiliary soldiers. Nearly 5 people had been fighting on this great plain early on. Once the layout is complete, we will wait for the arrival of the two large mixed legions with 15 people in Dawn City and a total of about [-] soldiers and auxiliary soldiers.

On the commanding platform of the crusaders' main formation, surrounded by dozens of generals, General Lips of the Holy Light stood in armor and held his sword, looking ahead.

Charl Duronda was by Lips' side.

Char Duronda was worried about this battle, so he deliberately ran over from the capital of Stentel.Although as a legend, he can't make random moves, but he can also deter the opponent's legendary power, so that the legendary power of Dawn City will not secretly meddle in regular battles.He knows that there are many legendary masters in Dawn City.

Of course, this crusader also has a legendary master. His Highness attaches great importance to the ownership of the two provinces of Leipu and Nanzhong. This is the real territory of the Holy See. Once these two provinces are taken, The Holy See will be able to develop the military openly.

In essence, the Holy See has no real territory. Even the Tartania Territory, where the Holy Mountain of Nalu is located, fundamentally belongs to the private territory of a Marquis who believes in the Goddess of Light. Legally speaking, the Holy See of Holy Light is just Temporarily borrowing part of the territory of the Tartania Territory for missionary stationing.

From this, one can imagine how much the Holy See valued the two provinces of Leipu and Nanzhong.

It is also because of this that King Stantel is confident that he can use the ruling power of these two provinces to formally provoke the war between the Holy See of Holy Light and Dawn City.

Char Duronda is not stupid, he can see King Stantel's thoughts, but the Holy See really needs these two provinces as real territories, this war must be fought.

Closer to home, Charduronda said to Lips with some concern, "General Lips, I have personally experienced the battle in the capital of Stentel, and I also understand the combat style of Stentel's new army. Magical weapons are best at Fighting positional warfare, is it a bit..."

Although Char Duronda hadn't finished speaking, the generals present could understand. Most of the generals showed expressions of disdain. Of course, this was not disdain for the great leader, Char Duronda, but for the Dawn City army. Disdain.

The Holy Light General Lipps, who has experienced many battles, has no expression on his face. He does not underestimate the army of Dawn City. He has a detailed battle report of the battle in the capital of Stentel. He is very aware of the power of magical weapons in positional warfare. However, he still arranged a more traditional offensive formation.

Lipps said in his unique and mature middle-aged masculine tone, "Dear Lord Char, please rest assured, it's not that I underestimate the enemy, but that both the enemy and us are mainly cavalry, and harassing warfare is difficult to be effective. .Once we hide in the city, we will fall into passive defense. Don’t forget, Dawn City has large-caliber artillery, which is not only a sharp weapon for positional warfare, but also a sharp weapon for siege warfare. If we If we defend the city, we can only passively withstand artillery bombardment. On the plains, we still have certain tactical maneuvers."

"This..." Charl Duronda had limited military insights, so he couldn't say anything for a while.

"Dear Lord Char, the only thing we can do now is to take advantage of the speed of the air and land cavalry on the plains to attack the enemy head-on. Once the soldiers are close to each other, our winning rate will be greatly improved." Lipps said on the surface. His face didn't change, but he said secretly in a voice that only Char Duronda could hear clearly, "Char, to be honest, we shouldn't rush to start a war, the crusaders need time to adapt to the new battlefield, and it's too urgent now. I'm not confident."

Charle Duronda's face changed slightly, and he quickly said, "Lips, there is no chance of winning at all?"

Lips said nothing, just shook his head imperceptibly, and nodded again.

Just as Charl Duronda was about to say something, the herald stepped forward quickly, "Report to the general! The two legions of Dawn City have entered the range of ten kilometers, and the cavalry is ahead, walking slowly, about fifteen thousand, mounts It is the black-scaled horse of the dragon race, the flag is a white handprint on a black background, and the starry lord's flag on a red background in Dawn City"

"White handprints on a black background? Isn't that the banner of Uther Lightbringer, the commander of the Fourth Legion in Dawn City who just appeared publicly not long ago? This arrogant and ignorant guy actually has the courage to face us, the real Lightbringers?"

"Hmph! Just right! Let this shameless guy accept the sanction of the Holy Light!"

"Does this idiot want to have a cavalry duel? Just right, the cavalry regiment of our Crusaders hasn't purified evil for a long time!"

"Enough." With Lips' soft call, the handsome platform that was originally like a vegetable market fell silent in an instant.

"Gunogrand, you lead [-] cavalry to face you. The main thing is to test, and retreat if you can't eat."

"Obey!" A 1.9-meter tall blond man snapped his breastplate in salute, and then walked away quickly.

"The ministries acted according to the plan, the magic legion was on guard, the cavalry mounted their horses, and the air cavalry lifted off."

"Yes!!"

Following Lipps' order, all the generals quickly prepared, and there were only a dozen heralds, Lipps, and Char Duronda left on the commanding platform.

Lips said at this time, "Charle, I don't know why, I feel very uneasy. I have never felt this way before."

Char Duronda hesitated for a moment, and finally had to say, "Lips, maybe Dawn City is not as strong as we thought?"

"I hope so too..." When Lipps was about to say something, he suddenly heard a series of dense whistling sounds from the sky, as if something was coming in groups through the air.

When Lipps was stunned, Charl Duronda's face changed drastically, and he said, "No! This is a live ammunition bombardment! Damn it is possible to... Lipps at this distance!"

Lips also reacted, and shouted, "Command! The antimatter barrier is activated!!"

Following Lipps' order, hundreds of translucent protective covers were quickly erected in the crusader's 10-strong military formation, covering all the crusaders, and almost at the same time, the ensuing It was hundreds of solid shells that fell on the translucent protective cover one after another.

"Boom boom boom boom!!!"

The successive explosions made Lipps' expression on the handsome platform change drastically, "The power of the explosion is so strong, but it hasn't reached the limit of the enchantment..."

Lips didn't finish sighing, and another burst of physical shells roared.

"Boom boom boom!!!!"

After welcoming the second wave of shelling, the hundreds of protective shields of the Crusaders, as long as they were affected, seemed to be crumbling. Most of the mages of the Crusaders magic group had blue veins on their foreheads, and the explosion power of the shells was almost It exceeded the upper limit of the protective cover.But fortunately, this has not reached the limit of the protective cover.

But at this time, the third round of shells roared again...

Chapter 229 This Is Justice!

Faced with this situation, Lipps yelled sharply, "The formation shrinks, with the mage group as the center, and the legion as the orderly phalanx! The air cavalry went to the enemy's artillery position to wait for an opportunity, and the land cavalry attacked across the board in three directions. Attack!! "

Following the order of Lipps, nearly [-] land cavalry troops of the Crusaders divided into three groups and quickly rushed out of the protective cover and left the formation.Eight thousand air cavalry riding on griffins accelerated into the air, entered the clouds and set off in the direction of the Dawn City artillery formation. Anti-matter enchantment, so as to meet the artillery coverage of Dawn City.

"Boom boom boom boom!!!"

The shelling continued, but because of Lipps' on-the-spot mobilization, coupled with the elite crusaders, the speed of change was extremely fast, but the infantry of the crusaders basically hid in the protective cover and did not cause much loss.

However, Lipps saw that as long as this ultra-long-range bombardment continued, the magicians of the Crusaders would always have their magic power exhausted. At that time...

Lipps didn't dare to imagine anymore, so he had to grit his teeth and say, "Is this the beyond-visual-range saturation attack tactics that the secret agents are talking about... It seems that the situation will be worse than I feared."

Char Duronda also said with a gloomy face at this time, "The artillery sold to Stantel by Dawn City does not have such power and range, although I know that Dawn City must keep a hand... Lips, maybe you are right."

"It's useless to say these now, cavalry, if we can eat the opponent, we still have to fight, if not, we can only withdraw. Judging from the current frequency and power of shelling, the magic group can last for 10 minutes If we don't find a suitable opportunity for a decisive battle within 10 minutes, we have to retreat!"

After all, Lipps looked into the distance with an ugly face...

The Silver Hand Cavalry Regiment of the Fourth Legion of Dawn City had already left the infantry formation at this time, advancing quickly, and like a decoy, it attracted the attention of the three cavalry of the Crusaders.

On the vast plain, watching the three cavalry of the Crusaders each divide [-] cavalry to surround them, under the flag of the general of the Silver Hand Cavalry Regiment, Uther Lightbringer, who was riding forward, closed the book in his hand , Raising their hands, more than ten thousand cavalry quickly stopped the black-scaled horse under their crotches.

Uther said again, "Circular formation."

"Order! Everyone, circular array!"

Under the order of the adjutant, more than ten thousand silver hand knights quickly dismounted and quickly formed a circular formation relying on the black scaled horses. The rapid-firing close-in defense guns are the outer layer, the shoulder-mounted magic artillery is in the middle layer, and the mage battalion and the quartermaster battalion carrying the space ring are the innermost layer, forming a standard infantry defensive circular formation.

However, under the lack of actual combat experience, the dismounted knights generally looked tense, with more or less panic, even fear in their eyes.There were also some mistakes and omissions in the process of changing formations. Fortunately, they were corrected by experienced officers in time. In addition, this army has sufficient training on weekdays. Strict and frequent daily training makes them still subconsciously maintain the tightness and order of the battle formation. A bigger mess ensues.

At the center of the innermost layer of the circular formation, Uther glanced at the cavalry group of the Crusaders in the distance, with a rare look of disgust on his face, "These people are flying the banner of the Holy Light, but they are full of evil thoughts and filth. , This is simply a blasphemy against the Holy Light."

"General?" A dragonman adjutant looked over.

"Send the order, stick to it, the mage group is ready to meet the arrows and magic bullets, and wait for the arrow to strike back before attacking."

"Here!" The dragon man's adjutant responded and went to deliver the order.

At this moment, Uther glanced at the expressions of the soldiers in the formation, knowing that everyone was full of uneasiness at the moment, but his heart was still full of hope and anticipation—this was a reborn battle, and it was also my lord who surpassed this world. The first battle, brothers, don't let the Lord down...

"Woooo!!!!"

Not long after, the crusaders besieged the tens of thousands of vanguard cavalry of the Silver Hand, divided into three directions and blew their charge horns towards the Silver Hand battle formation, and quickly entered the land of a stone's throw.

The Holy Cult vanguard cavalry took the lead in attacking, and the rain of arrows mixed with magic bullets covered the Silver Hand's battle formation, but was soon stopped by the silver hand's magic battalion which erected a translucent protective cover.

The cavalry generals of the Crusaders were not disappointed in the fact that arrows and magic bullets could not be used. In their knowledge, as long as there was a mage camp, before the magic power of the mage camp was exhausted, ordinary arrows and magic bullets would be difficult. To have an effect, the real meritorious deeds depend on the fight after the hand-to-hand combat.

Now, entering the land of a stone's throw, at the speed of the cloud-haired horse mount of the Crusaders' cavalry, it takes only a few breaths to...

"Boom~~~~~"
