Chapter 125 The Extravagant Lampari Kingdom Army
Following the usual patrol route, the patrol team traveled about five kilometers southwest away from the small town of Greenview, and a mountain range came into view in the distance.
This mountain range is the largest mountain range in the southern part of the former Frankish Kingdom, and it is called the Glisius Mountains.
If you continue to head south from the small town of Greenville, if you don't want to pass through this valley southwest of the small town of Greenville, you can only go east or west for hundreds of kilometers to bypass Grexie. Mountains.
Therefore, this mountain range became an obvious dividing line separating the north and south sides of the eastern part of the former Frankish Kingdom.
Nearly a month ago, under the attack of the Marfa coalition forces, the army of the Lampari Kingdom retreated all the way to the Glisius Mountains area. With the fortifications they built in advance in the only accessible Tianming Valley in the Glisius Mountains, Withstood the attack of the Marfa allied forces.
It has to be said that the fortifications built by the Lampari Kingdom here are too strong.
During this month, the Mafa coalition forces launched a total of fourteen attacks on this valley, many of which were led by four magisters and the most powerful group of magicians in the coalition forces. Still can't break through the defense here.
Even under the counterattack of the Lampari Kingdom army, the Marfa coalition forces suffered heavy losses. More than 20,000 soldiers were directly killed in less than a month of fighting, and the remaining number of seriously injured exceeded 40,000. countless.
And this is not a big deal, the real loss is that in these 14 battles, more than a hundred high-level magicians were killed by the Mafa coalition forces under the counterattack of the Lampari Kingdom army, and even two great magicians were killed in battle. .
Coupled with the fact that the four magicians were unable to do anything together, the mountain range became an insurmountable barrier in front of the Marfa allied forces for a while, preventing them from continuing to expand their victories. Take back the territory that originally belonged to the Frankish Kingdom.
In the past week, the top leaders of the Marfa coalition forces temporarily gave up their move to attack the Tianming Valley, and decided to stabilize the situation in the territory of the Frankish Kingdom that had been recaptured from the Lampari Kingdom before making any plans.
So now the armies of both sides are temporarily holding fire near the Gresius Mountains, and are in a state of confrontation.
certainly. This does not mean that the two sides will really make peace.
Whether it is the Marfa coalition or the Lampari Kingdom, they will definitely find an opportunity to launch another attack.
Therefore, the Marfa coalition forces have been strengthening their reconnaissance and patrolling of the Glisius Mountains area during this period of time. On the one hand, they are preventing the Lampari Kingdom's sudden counterattack, and on the other hand, they are also looking for loopholes in the Lampari Kingdom's army. In one fell swoop, he broke through the Grisius Mountains.
Lieutenant Nokmo and his scouting team, which consisted of 17 Frankish soldiers, were one of the many teams responsible for reconnaissance missions.
Lieutenant Nokmo and his men have patrolled the nearby area many times these days, and they can almost know where they have gone with their eyes closed. Naturally, there is no need to do more exploration.
Now that they have entered a place where they can see the Grisius Mountains in the distance with the naked eye, it is considered that they have reached an area that really needs their vigilance.
According to the information obtained during the previous battle with the Lampari Kingdom army. The army of the Lampari Kingdom is now equipped with the latest magic artillery provided by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and the range on flat ground can already exceed four kilometers.
However, if the attack is carried out from above the Glisius Mountains from top to bottom, the range can easily exceed five kilometers.
Therefore, when Lieutenant Nokmo and his men entered this area, it meant that they might be attacked by magic artillery from the Lampari Kingdom army at any time, and their lives would be in danger at any time.
Of course, this is only a theoretical consideration.
As a matter of fact, the Lampari Kingdom certainly wouldn't just waste the precious magic shells on the Ma-Fa coalition reconnaissance team who knows where. Such precious resources are usually only used in frontal firefights.
In terms of reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance, in addition to using the magic airship in the sky to conduct condescending reconnaissance, the Kingdom of Lampari will also send scout teams to conduct reconnaissance most of the time.
After the huge, seemingly invincible image of the magical airship floated in his mind, Lieutenant Nokomo raised his head and looked towards the sky. Finding that there were no suspicious black spots flying in the sky at this time, he nodded and felt relieved.
Because the Lampari Kingdom has magic airships, the Marfa coalition forces can easily detect the overall movement and a lot of information, which has suffered a lot in this regard.
Just two days ago, three reconnaissance teams of the Marfa allied forces were attacked by the army of the Kingdom of Lampari when they were approaching the Glisius Mountains, and none of them were brought back.
So even though Lieutenant Nokmo and his team hadn't even seen a single Lampali Kingdom army for a week, he was still cautious at this time, trying to avoid becoming an eye-catching target.
After leading his men in the lush forest at the foot of the Gresius Mountains and approaching the Gresius Mountains for about two kilometers, Lieutenant Nokmo motioned for everyone to stop. Then with a wave of hands, the team members took their positions and were fully on alert.
With preparation, Lieutenant Nokmo believed. The team he led was enough to easily wipe out an unprepared Frankish Kingdom team.
But once the other party has some warnings and preparations... then don't think too much, just run for your life is better.
The countless battles with the Lampari Kingdom before have proved that although the Marfa coalition has several times the force of the Lampari Kingdom, the real advantage is only the help provided by the four magisters.
Without the help of the four magisters, on the frontal battlefield. For traditional soldiers like Lieutenant Nokmo who are still equipped with swords, the soldiers of Lampari Kingdom who have fully armed themselves with military magic machinery may be able to clean up their team.
"Hey, it would be great if there was a single soldier of the Lampari Kingdom. If you take him out of the way, you can snatch the equipment from him."
Lieutenant Nokmo couldn't help but salivate when he thought of the various artifacts and powerful individual military magic machines on the soldiers of the Lampari Kingdom.
If he can also have such a set of equipment, I am afraid that even a single magician has the hope of success.
Of course, he also knew that even if he really met the Lampari Kingdom soldier who was alone, and snatched the military magic machine from the other party, he would eventually be taken away by the higher-ups.
Now the Maro Empire is in great need of various military magic machines equipped by the army of the Lampari Kingdom, in order to have more examples for research and imitation.
It is said that within the Maro Empire, a huge team of magicians and craftsmen has been organized, and they are going all out to study military magic machinery, in order to narrow the armament gap with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce camp as much as possible.
However, this kind of thing is obviously not something that can be achieved in a short period of time. At least Lieutenant Nokmo didn't see how many military magic machines suddenly appeared in the army of the Maro Empire.
Seeing that his subordinates were already lurking in their respective positions, Lieutenant Nokmo climbed up a tree, hid himself in the trunk, took out a telescope, and looked at the distant Glisius Mountains through the gaps in the branches and leaves. go.
In fact, this is nothing to look at.
During the previous week-long reconnaissance, every time Lieutenant Nokmo led his men to observe the vicinity, he would find that the Lampari Kingdom army on the Gresius Mountains was honestly in their positions on the mountains. , doesn't pop up at all.
Even if you see a few figures occasionally, it just flashes by in an instant, and you can't see any specific movement at all.
However, the task Lieutenant Nokmo received was to observe whether there were any abnormal behaviors in the Lampari Kingdom. As long as he monitored here for a day, he would be considered as having completed his task.
After looking at it for a while, after confirming that there was nothing abnormal in the camp of the Lampari Kingdom army in the distance, Lieutenant Nokmo yawned boredly, and prepared to take back the telescope and rest for a while.
When this idea just came up, a black spot suddenly appeared in the field of vision of his telescope.
Lieutenant Nuo Kemo was stunned for a moment, and quickly looked around, and quickly judged that this should be a magic airship.
This magical airship flew from the sky in the south of the Grisius Mountains, and then slowly descended to the position of the Lampari Kingdom on the mountains.
Lieutenant Nokmo didn't see any people or cargo coming down from the magic airship because of the barrier.
However, according to the information provided by other reconnaissance teams before, the Lampari Kingdom often has magic airships flying from the south. It is guessed that some supplies were transported from the south to the Lampari Kingdom army stationed in the Glisius Mountains.
When he heard this information before, Lieutenant Nuo Kemo still didn't believe it, because there are only twenty such things as magic airships in the Maro Empire, and all of them were given by the highest status people in the Maro Empire. After dividing it up, there is only one ship in the Mafa coalition army, which shows how precious this thing is.
Moreover, as far as Lieutenant Nokmo knew, the flying of the magic airship consumes a lot of energy, and it is obviously not cost-effective to use this thing to transport supplies.
Even if the Lampari Kingdom has a large number of magical airships, it should not be so extravagant and wasteful.
But as if he deliberately wanted to slap Lieutenant Nokmo in the face, just as this idea came to his mind, another magic airship appeared in his sight.
Before he could react, magic airships appeared one after another in the sky far to the south, and soon formed a black cloud in the sky, covering almost the entire Glisius Mountains.
Seeing this abnormal situation, no matter how ignorant Lieutenant Nokmo was, he knew that something was bound to happen. (~^~)
