Chapter 1217

"This war has been going on for a long time."

In the battle conference room, William's face looked a little haggard, not as energetic as before.

Sitting around the conference table are the generals responsible for attacking torus fortress this time. Of course, there are few humans, basically all of them are orcs, orcs and elves. Barbarian chiefs dare to fight and kill, but when it comes to discussing tactics with them, it's really a very ridiculous behavior. So William's way of dealing with these people is to tell them when to do what. The result is surprisingly good.

The people present didn't understand William's words very much, so they didn't open their mouth to express any ideas and opinions.

A few days ago, they tried to push the front, but they were stopped by Alexis before they pushed a kilometer.

Far apart, Alexis and kokirei felt the powerful power fluctuation. If they move forward, I'm afraid some less optimistic things will happen. In this regard, William can only choose to give up reluctantly. After all, with this force in his hand and relying on death tactics, I'm afraid it's not enough for the other party to consume.

You know, the qainas Empire also stopped before this fortress.

As for the scheme of underground passage, the current situation is also quite difficult.

The fortress of torus was engraved with large-scale stable magic, which strengthened the whole fortress and several kilometers of ground and 500 meters underground. Although this is not impossible to crack, it takes a long time. It is far from a problem that can be solved in a short time. At least it takes one or two months to dig such a channel. But in this process, once discovered, the consequences can be imagined.

"According to the news from the realm of nothingness, the kingdom of * * * seems to have been completely unable to resist the step-by-step pressure of the qainas empire. It is expected that the whole line will collapse in three months at most. Finally, there is only the layout of the only defense line, the fortress of torus." William said in a deep voice, and then put the report on hand on the conference table and distribute it to others. Even if only a small number of people can understand it, we must respect William. "At that time, if we want to occupy the majority interests, it will be impossible."

"There's no loss." Someone opened his mouth. It was a Orc who came to the meeting on behalf of a barbarian tribe in the wilderness. "Anyway, our loss is not big, and this kingdom can't continue to exist. Now it's a victory for us."

William sighed helplessly.

Because the fortress of torus had been inaccessible, some sweeping and looting had to be carried out around this line of defense. Only in terms of the results of the war, the harvest of the void principality is not small, so it makes the barbaric tribes involved in the war feel a burst of satisfaction. In this way, they naturally have no intention to bite the hard bone of torus fortress.

As for the battle between Alexis and kokirei, they can only block the bombardment of magic crystal artillery once at most, but the next third artillery will certainly cause them to lose one person. William could not bear this loss, because he knew that the key point for the void principality to truly become an empire and gain a firm foothold was the three super powers under Sean.

Without these super strong people, even if you can save enough information, it won't help. On the contrary, more wolves will look around because the fat Duchy of the void is large enough. The first to bear the brunt must be the Millennium covenant Empire and the qainas Empire - William is very clear about the mentality of these empires. Now the so-called cooperation is just based on being unwilling to bear too much losses, But once the void principality could not show the unique strength of the Empire, the qainas Empire would not mind taking a bite.

Even if the military God Jason can trust, the top leaders of the first empire in the East will certainly not give up.

Besides, the most important thing is that William can't tell these savage tribes.

That is Qi Yun.

The void principality needs a little less Qi to be directly upgraded to an empire. This point can be perfectly supplemented only after breaking torus Fortress - if torus fortress was not in front of William, he would not want to chew this difficult bone at all. Unless he is given more troops or more time, he can completely conquer the fortress.

However, what he lacks most now is these two things.

Because of the opening of the four battlefields, today's void principality is not only short of troops, but even the support of logistics lines has become a major problem. William even felt that if he was the general of Ryan Kingdom, he would recklessly lead troops to raid the city of void, and even occupy all the territory of the void principality outside the Great Wall in the gorge, completely cutting off the logistics of all armies of the void principality.

William mentioned this concern in his letter to Neil, but he only mentioned it slightly. Because apart from Sean and William, no one knows that Neil is not only good at internal affairs, but also has terrible talent and vision in military. After all, William is also an apprentice taught by Neil.

But now, these are not the things he should be in charge of. The most important thing for him now is to win the fortress of torus as soon as possible.

So soon, William began to issue new battle orders at this temporary battle conference.

In fact, these operational orders are still simple and old-fashioned: military blockade of several key roads around torus fortress to ensure that no materials can be transported into torus fortress. Then they still loot the surrounding cities and towns, and stop all killing before they don't endanger the lives of their own soldiers. After all, after the establishment of the void Empire, a large labor population is needed, and these prisoners of war are the labor source of the future void empire.

Although Sean banned the slave trade and slavery, the punishment of war prisoners was no different from that of other countries on the mainland. Only the slave treatment of prisoners has been abolished, but this remains the same for non free people. However, if these prisoners of war work hard enough, they can still regain the status of free people by virtue of their own ability, and once they change from prisoners of war to free people, they can also get some preferential policies.

Since the war against the kingdom of * * *, apart from the massacre tactics carried out to involve the defense network at the beginning, the Principality of void has looted millions of people in more than ten territories of the kingdom of * * *. These people are continuously transported into the wilderness through the logistics route, and are regarded as labor force to participate in the construction of various cities, fortresses and defense strongholds in the wilderness.

This is the strategic plan built by Hella, Neil and William: accelerating the growth of the void empire through war.

Although this requires a considerable number of people to take care of prisoners of war and prevent rebellion, the construction of the void Empire has obviously accelerated a lot after the plan has been gradually put on track. In particular, a considerable part of the supply of troops has been supplemented. Although there is still a big gap between becoming a real soldier and an elite force, a perfect reserve force mechanism has been completely established.

As long as this series of wars are calmed down, the void principality will only need a very short period of development time to become a powerful empire that is truly comparable to the five ancient empires.

Whoever it is knows that the Principality of nothingness must not be allowed to spend this time. However, under the scheming tactics of William and Hella, no one can stop it at all, because the two empires closest to the void principality and most threatening the void principality have their own troubles at this time, and the surrounding small countries can only make the current void principality feel some trouble at most, but the degree of trouble is not even thorny.

It can even be said that the reason why they feel trouble is simply because these clowns have chosen too good a time to find trouble. If the three main forces of the Principality of void were not dragged down by the * * * Kingdom, the army of the dead and the southern coalition forces, where would Ryan Kingdom, the karosha tribal United Nations and the Knights of Robyn run out to make trouble.

Just as William gave the order of the new strategic plan, the curtain of the battle conference room was suddenly opened.

A cold wind came in from outside the tent, and the temperature in the whole tent suddenly dropped by more than ten degrees.

This low temperature is not a normal seasonal temperature, but almost turns into a real murderous gas.

Several guards hiding the protection tent immediately appeared everywhere, including a former Peace Council executive who was subdued by Sean.

But these people were stunned when they saw that the intruder was Alexis.

"You all leave first." William frowned.

He knew the identity of Alexis, and even he had to maintain enough respect for the super strong man. However, he knew very well that Alexis would never interfere in all his military operations. On the contrary, Alexis and kokirei would cooperate as much as possible if it was their own request. At this time, knowing that they were holding a battle conference and broke into here without notice, it proved that Alexis must have something urgent.

After hearing William's words, everyone in the camp got up to salute and left one by one.

When everyone left, Alexis said, "I'm leaving for a while."

"Leave?" William was really stunned this time. "Is there any trouble with Sean?"

Alexis, coquirre, tungsten Lamo and Noro are Sean's attendants, which William knows very well. Although he doesn't know where Sean found the three super strong, this is not something he needs to consider. As the military commander of the void principality and even the future void Empire, what he has to do now is to take the fortress of torus, and Alexis and kokirei will not leave before that.

But now, Alexis came to tell him that she had to leave here for a while, so William had thought of the only answer.

There is no second possibility except that Sean is in trouble.

"I don't know." Alexis shook her head. "According to the news from tungsten Ramo, Sean seems to have fought someone and had an accident. It should have been tungsten Lamo, but now there is an accident in his charge, so he can't get away for the time being. "

"What kind of chaotic portal?" William is also in a hurry.

"No." Alexis shook her head. "We can't contact Sean for the time being, so tungsten Ramo can't locate accurately. Because kokirei is not suitable for this task, I can only rush to the site of the incident to check But you can rest assured that your plan can still be carried out with kokirei staying here. If the situation here is critical, you can send a message to me through kokirei. I have told him. "

"I don't need to worry. You'd better start looking for Sean as soon as possible." When William heard that Alexis said he couldn't contact Sean for the time being, he realized the seriousness of the problem. "In any case, Sean must be found."

Alexis glanced at William unexpectedly, but she nodded: "I'll do it without you saying."

Having said that, Alexis immediately turned and left, took off directly and rushed to the accident site where tungsten Lamo had sent a message.

……

At the same time, at a mountain in the wilderness, Noro also found Hella.

However, different from Alexis's slightly tactful expression, Noro spoke directly: "Lord Sean has an accident. Including me, all the people who have signed the soul contract with Sean can't contact Lord Sean. I don't know what the specific situation is. "

"What happened to Sean?" Haila was looking at the terrain ahead and preparing to arrange the battlefield, but now she was completely shocked when she heard Noro's heavy bomb, "what's going on? Why didn't I hear from William and Neil? "

"Because it happened not long ago." Noro said in a deep voice, "the news was sent by Mr. wolfram Lamo, and I really can't contact Lord Sean. I came to you after I had repeatedly confirmed it. Miss Alexis has left for the place of the incident. The specific situation can only be notified by Miss Alexis. In the current situation, I do not think it is appropriate to continue to wage war. "

"No." Hella was silent for a moment, then shook her head. "Sean, the situation is not clear now. We have to pose as an attack. If we shrink our forces or retreat now, it will make people aware of problems within the principality, and the results will be more troublesome. I'm sure William will make the same choice. After all, the situation he needs to face will be more dangerous than ours. "

"According to what you mean, we should end the war as soon as possible?" Noro asked.

"Yes." Haila nodded. "Fortunately, the situation on my side has been well controlled, and the enemy is stepping into the ambush circle as I expected. I can close the net in half a month at the slowest. However, it may take a month to a month and a half to wait until the situation is completely stabilized, but I don't need to do everything myself during this period. In terms of military strength, I can also provide support to other battlefields, so as to end wars in other places faster. "

Nolo hesitated for a moment and intuitively told him that the most appropriate way at present is not to continue the war to expand the territory of the empty principality, nor even to continue the imperial plan, but to maintain the stability and cohesion within the principality. Because this time Sean's accident made him realize that there was a very bad place, and this feeling was that he had never appeared, so he was so worried.

Different from the abilities gained by Alexis, coquirre and tungsten Lamo when they were promoted to legend, the ability gained by Noro when he was promoted to legend was legendary perception. This is a very mysterious and special legendary ability, which is somewhat similar to the sixth sense, or predictive ability. Although we can't clearly see the picture of the future, this sixth sense can play some very key roles to a great extent.

It was precisely because of his ability that Alexis decided to go to the site of Sean's accident at his strong request.

After all, Sean has caused a lot of trouble, and it's not once or twice when he meets a crisis. People like Alexis, kokirei and Nolo have long been used to it. Only this time, Noro felt really bad.

However, he was able to convince Alexis and Vladimir because they all had the same origin.

But Haila is different. She only knows that Noro is an old minister of the Sean family, but she doesn't know Noro's real identity.

This makes Noro very upset, and he really doesn't have enough reasons and evidence to convince Hella. In particular, Hella's strategic plan has entered the closing stage. At present, the plan has reached the key to success. It is obviously unrealistic to let Hella give up.

……

At the same time, located in Garrod fortress, tungsten Lamo also has a solemn face.

After he followed Sean's arrangement to help Simi clean up the rebels, he always looked kind with a smile. Although his strength is very strong, there is no opponent who can compete with him here in the Principality of Garrod, but the enemy he wants to solve is like a mouse, which makes him feel extremely annoying, because these rebels do not directly compete with the army of the Principality of Garrod, but shoot one shot at a time, which makes the army of the Principality of Garrod tired of coping.

Under such circumstances, even though tungsten Lamo's strength is strong and terrible, it is somewhat helpless for a skillful woman to make bricks without rice.

Before Sean's accident, tungsten Lamo always maintained an indifferent attitude and regarded this task as a rare leisure experience. At the same time, it also allows him to quickly integrate into the system of the world and understand the relevant data and history of the whole plane.

However, after feeling the information transmission of the tooth of nothingness, tungsten Lamo couldn't calm down. He tried to contact Sean at the first time, but the result was that the soul contact channel was closed. He couldn't contact Sean at all, let alone accurate coordinate positioning.

Tungsten Lamo, aware of the seriousness of the incident, immediately contacted Alexis and Nolo. Later, at Nolo's strong request, tungsten Lamo, who was uneasy, also agreed to let Alexis rush to the site of the incident to check the situation immediately. He has let the teeth of nothingness wait for Alexis there. At the same time, he is also to protect Elizabeth who is in a weak state. After all, many people still want Elizabeth's head.

However, after such an event, tungsten Lamo also had no relaxed leisurely state of mind.

At this time, in Garrod fortress, tungsten Lamo had asked someone to help clear a large open space. He painted a huge magic array on the ground. Although there is only one magic array, for those who have received systematic high-level magic array knowledge, they can see that it is composed of dozens of small and medium-sized magic arrays. This superposition not only does not interfere with and destroy each other, but makes all these magic arrays form a complete large magic array again.

Even if it has not injected magic, the powerful momentum emitted is enough to shock countless people.

"Tunrama, this is..." Simi had a meeting in the battle conference room, but after feeling the powerful momentum fluctuation, she rushed out at the first time.

Different from ordinary magicians, Simi recognized at a glance that the rune mark depicted by the large magic array occupying the vestibular square of Garrod fortress obviously belongs to chaotic language. This is a language that does not belong to the aspect of order. Such words can be seen only outside the void or on the battlefield of different dimensions.

"There's no time to spend here." Tungsten Ramo said in a deep voice, "I know that with your ability, it is not easy for the enemy to break Garrod fortress. It is still possible to support the arrival of the second wave of void reinforcements. But now, I have no patience to spend with them, so even if it causes vibration and change, I can only summon the chaos legion here. "

"Chaos Legion!?" Simi was stunned for a moment, and his face turned white immediately. "Your Excellency, I don't allow you to do this, this..."

"Don't worry." Tungsten Lamo said, although his voice was calm, it revealed an unquestionable and rebellious strength, "this is my chaotic legion, not a bait thrown randomly from the empty outside world And I will grasp the size and will not summon a large-scale chaotic Legion. "

Even if tungsten Lamo wants to summon a large-scale chaotic legion, it is impossible. Because Sean is the son of the plane, tungsten Lamo cannot excessively consume the source of the world. He can only summon the corresponding chaotic forces to support within the scope allowed by the will of the world, and under the limitation of this force, he can't even summon the seven strongest Warcraft under his command at the same time, which is also the helplessness of tungsten Lamo himself.

"What the hell... Happened?" Sensitive Simi realized for the first time that tungsten Lamo had an anxiety at the moment.

"Elizabeth has been rescued, but your Archduke Athena is still missing." Tungsten Ramo said in a deep voice, "and Sean... Something happened."
