Twenty Sided Dice

?

Siegel waited for a while, but the messenger of the Confederate Army did not appear, which was also what he expected. Several young knights in veteran armor came over with white flags, claiming that they were knights under the command of Baron Felton Turner, and demanded to bring back the body of their master.

"Are you sure this corpse belongs to Felton?" Siegel snorted, pointing to the shriveled corpse. "Look carefully and tell me what you think."

Several people bowed their heads and approached the battlefield under the supervision of the half-orc Humke. After a while, they looked at each other and shook their heads at the same time. "This is not our master. Baron Felton... not like that."

"Your master may have been replaced by this evil sorcerer long ago." Now that the battle with the Knox Common Society has surfaced, he no longer hides it: "You have to be careful of the Knox Common Society, they There is a very strong way to deceive the spirit. As far as I know, the most perfect disguise requires constant knowledge and memory from the original owner, so there is a very small chance that your master is still alive."

The knight raised his head, his eyes suddenly filled with hope, and asked anxiously, "Where will he be?"

"I don't know." Siegel smiled: "How do you usually find people, how do you find them now."

"Understood, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, it is worth it." The knight said: "As for this corpse, we naturally won't want it. May the wild dogs eat it and maggots fill its flesh and blood."

"That's not safe." Siegel raised his hand, and a small fireball ignited the body. The fire was very obvious on the battlefield, and the black smoke rose in the air. The flames of magic quickly devoured the broken body, leaving only a pile of ashes on the duel arena.

Siegel then ordered the Earth Elemental to drill back into the tunnel. All the way to the closed work, he also returned to the back of the city wall.

None of the southern coalition forces dared to move, and silently watched the Lord of Heim City go back. There seemed to be a fireball flying over in front of them, and the barking of a burning dog also appeared in their ears-how to fight tomorrow?

The warriors of Myr City cheered and cast an admiring look at their young lord. As for multiple siege one. Of course no one mentioned it. The terrifying sight of constantly changing monsters has frightened many people, how can we keep our hands on monsters? The coalition forces in the south did not express any objection. How could the residents of Myr City care about this matter?

Moore ran over and said in Siegel's ear: "Lord Lord, Madam invites you to the study. Knight Mana is already there waiting for you, and it seems that there is something important to report to you."

Mostly not good news. Siegel frowned. Something serious must have happened to get Janet out of the bedroom and into the study. He stepped forward quickly and pushed open the door of the study. As a result, in addition to Janet and Mana, he also saw an unexpected person: the dwarf Erint.

Siegel froze for a moment. But still warmly embraced the dwarf. "When did you arrive, there's no news at all," he said with a little greeting, "I'm so happy to see you still healthy and full of strength!"

Erinte did not have a happy expression. He rubbed his hands and cleared his throat before saying, "Siegel, this time I bring bad news. The Mora Peak clan meeting issued a war mobilization order. , close the Walled Mountains. All the dwarves on the top of Mora will return immediately, and even the sentry towers on the plains will be temporarily abandoned."

"What trouble have you encountered, do you need my help?" Siegel said: "I have made a new breakthrough in elemental rune technology recently. There must be something I can do."

"You're a good boy," Erint forced a smile, "but I'm going to fail you this time. The dwarves who helped you defend the Zebra Mountain fortress must be evacuated. I'm faster than the herald, but only for you. Get a maximum of two days."

"What? Dwarves guarding the Striped Mountains? What's going on?" Siegel looked at Mana.

"I arranged this matter." Janet said, "When I heard the news of the Southern Allied Forces, it happened that a caravan of Erint's gem family was in Zebra Mountain, with a total of forty people, ready to **** a group of them. Gold coins back. There are many good fighters among them. So I asked them to help."

"It's a well-cooperative hire." Erint explained: "The price Janet gave was very good. If it wasn't for the war mobilization order, I would like to organize some soldiers to come here to exercise."

"I see." Siegel said, "These dwarven warriors are each comparable to regular knights and are good at defense. They are more suitable for fighting in an environment reinforced by dwarf runes. No wonder the entire front is defended without the slightest loophole. If they withdraw, they will inevitably be discovered by the enemy, which is likely to trigger a full-scale attack. The weakness of our lack of troops will be exposed, and they will always find an opportunity to capture the city wall."

"That's what I'm worried about." Erinte said: "In the name of the Gem Family, I organized a mercenary group for you on the top of Mora, with a total of two hundred people, and they should be able to use it within four days. Arrive within."

"But I dare not put them on the city wall," Siegel shook his head: "The mercenaries who came for money will naturally betray me for money, and put the safety of my territory and people in their hands. It is better to believe that pirates only need Money rather than life. But putting them in the field will inevitably lead to dissatisfaction and possibly mutiny."

Erinte pondered for a while, and he had no other ideas. Without some Heimland militias, the Southern Alliance would not have seen it, but the dwarves were different. Siegel can't get kids and stuff their clothes with straw pillows and make up dwarves, can they? Even if it can be done very similar, he can't really send children to the city wall.

Siegel closed his eyes and thought carefully about how the situation might change. What would Master Faranis do if faced with this situation?

Janet suddenly had an idea and said to the two: "Maybe we can seek reinforcements from the Jackdaw tribe. Their cavalry may be able to solve the current predicament."

But when she finished, Janet understood that the plan would be difficult to achieve. Even if Siegel used his phantom steed to travel with all his strength, it would be difficult to reach the Jackdaw tribe within two days, let alone lead the cavalry back. What they need to solve is the immediate problem of how to make up for the lack of combat power caused by the departure of the dwarves in a day or two.

"Are Locke and the others going back too?" Siegel asked.

"Locke?" Erinte's beard shook. He himself is not sure to pay attention: "When the westward dwarves entered the great wasteland westward, they were nominally expelled from the top of Mora. Although they still have a relationship with the original clan, they are not Mora from a legal point of view. The pinnacle dwarves. If I say it, whether they respond to the war mobilization order or not depends entirely on their mood."

Siegel thought about it. Locke should not go back. The closure of the top of Mora is the last thing the westward dwarves want to see. They also need passages, and they need a way to cross the walled mountains. If you go back, you will never have a chance.

"That's good news, at least someone can defend the retreat." Siegel tapped the table with his fingers, making a hollow sound. "Want to win this battle. There seems to be only one option: night attack."

Before the war mobilization order was officially sent to the dwarves, Heimland was still their employer, which meant that Siegel could still command them. Dwarves are known for their resolute obedience to orders, as long as the target is chosen and the tactics are executed correctly. The dwarves will perform very dutifully.

After Siegel finished speaking, he kept staring at the dwarf Erinte, wanting to know what he thought. I don't know what choice the old dwarf will make in the face of this situation. Would he hesitate to oppose Siegel's plan. Knowing that these dwarves are going home in a day or two, is it necessary to venture to the enemy now?

The mage was very worried, but Erinte was not as tangled as she imagined. After thinking for a while, he said, "A surprise attack is a way to change the situation by getting as big a result as possible. I wonder if you have chosen a target?"

"While everyone was busy focusing on the duel. Balon the Raven conducted a detailed reconnaissance for me. The enemy's army has three weak points, the siege weapons camp, the granary, and the East Camp Gate." Siegel walked to the desk. Spreading out a piece of white paper, he simply drew the layout of the enemy camp: "Among the three places, the granary is the most difficult and has the most guards. The southern coalition also hoarded a large amount of sand and water, ready to deal with fires at any time. .Engineering camps are more suitable for raids, the only problem is that they are often brightly lit at night. Many craftsmen are busy building equipment, and sneaking troops are easy to be found. As for Dongyingmen, because it is close to the rift area, the defense force is slightly weak. In the past, cavalry could be sent to harass the enemy's supply lines."

The dwarf shook his head: "You are already outnumbered, can you still send cavalry?"

"At least tonight," Siegel replied. "How can we sneak attack without speed? Even dwarves have to get on horses tonight. With only two legs, there is no time to evacuate before the army closes. We are going for sneak attack. , not to die."

"Well, you're right, I'll go with you."

Siegel shook his head and said to the dwarves, "No. On the one hand I can't find the right horse for you, on the other hand because you'd better not show up in front of the dwarves. They will think about it afterwards and wonder why you didn't convey it. War mobilization order."

When Erinte heard this, she slammed the table and stood up shaking her beard. He wanted to reprimand Siegel, telling him that the Jewel Clan never shied away from responsibility, and would not shy away from the mobilization order to come. But he then thought that such righteous words would have no meaning after two days, and they would eventually leave, leaving the young lord to struggle alone.

No matter what he said, the people of Heimland would think they were deserters.

The reason for the war mobilization order and the closure of the city wall and mountains is naturally clear, but he cannot tell outsiders~www.readwn.com~ The Patronus instructs that foreign enemies are approaching, and must be prepared for the most dangerous situation, so specially An oracle descended. Humans don't know, elves don't know, other races in the world don't know. Mora's Pinnacle has begun to become a battleship of runic power, like an unsinkable ship that carries the seven clans of the dwarves across the sea.

Putting the interests of the clan and Mora's top first, this reason is very legitimate, and it does not mean that you can fully convince yourself or ease the shame of escaping. Erinte blushed and clenched her fists: "I must participate in your raid, whether others can see it or not. This is my business! Even if I don't have a mount, I have to walk!"

"Ever since I was born, I, Erinte, haven't escaped a battle! Siegel, you are a mage, and I don't have a suitable horse to ride, so you can conjure one for me! It's so hard to do this kind of thing. I teach?"

"Just tell me which direction you're attacking! I'll be standing where you've designated me until tonight is over!"

The mage pointed, "The only thing that can completely solve the problem is here."

At this moment, there was a knock on the door of the study, and More said through the door panel: "Lord Lord, there is a letter, please read it." (To be continued)
