Chronicles of Ryan the Wizard

Chapter 336 Surprise (5)

After Tempus sat down, in the entire conference room, among the people sitting at the round table, only Ryan did not speak.

Keynst pointed to Ryan and said to Orlando: "He is Ryan, a magician, a mercenary guild from Liberty Paradise in the south. He performed very well in the previous battle, so he attended the meeting as a representative of the mercenary. ."

Orlando nodded, indicating that he knew it, and then looked around the meeting room with his eyes, carefully looked at the people sitting at the round table, and said in a majestic voice: "This time I brought 5,000 holy knights, 10,000 archers and 30,000. The infantry, as well as the 200 magicians of the Royal Magic Guild, hope to completely defeat the orc army in the next battle and solve the border problems in the north."

All the people present shouted together: "Death to your majesty!"

Orlando raised his hands and gently pressed down. The people in the room left and closed their mouths, and the whole meeting room was quiet again.After a brief mobilization of morale, Orlando started the theme of today's meeting. He said to Keynst: "General Keynst, I just got here and I am not familiar with warfare. Let me introduce the situation of the orc army."

Keenster said: "Yes, sir. According to our intelligence, this time the orc army has gathered at least 500,000 people. In the past half month, the orcs have attacked once a day during the day and occasionally sneak attacks at night. Our army has annihilated about 200,000 orc warriors. Our army killed more than 40,000 people and seriously injured more than 8,000 people. Most of the seriously injured have lost their combat capabilities."

"According to the current intelligence analysis, the orcs are not monolithic. It is very likely that there will be multiple small lords among them, who have to fight under the command of the supreme ruler. However, no opportunity has been discovered so far. The entire Thor Fortress is almost I can't find a few people who are proficient in the language of the orcs, and the physical differences between the enemy and us make it difficult for our army to collect information on the orcs.

"The orcs have been under the city for half a month. Every day before they attack the city, they will list a square formation of 100,000 people. The 100,000 soldiers and equipment are quite sophisticated, but they just look indifferently every time. The orcs who were attacking the city died one by one under the wall, as if their existence was only to drive away their companions. These days, the number of orcs soldiers attacking the city varies from 30,000 at most to a few thousand at least. But they are all old, weak, sick and disabled. Although there are a small number of elites, the number is too small to have much impact on Thor Fortress..."

Keenster talked about everything about the orcs, and especially emphasized that some of the orcs' troops should not be inferior to human soldiers. They also have iron discipline, and are also equipped with iron weapons and sophisticated guards. A. Simpler siege equipment was also used in the siege. These were supposed to be the advantage of humans over orcs, but now, apart from occupying favorable terrain, the human defenders really have nothing to rely on. .

After listening to Keynst's report, Orlando nodded, and then asked General Clark, General Jonas, and Ryan many questions in detail, and got a simple understanding of the current situation through their answers.

"The Jonas Legion has been garrisoned for 10 days. Let's change defense tonight, General Clark, you will take over the line of defense first." Orlando thought for a while and said: "I'm here this time and bring the Royal Academy of Magic 200 magicians. Ryan, you are also a magician and have personal experience in combat. Do you have any good suggestions to use these magicians?"

Ryan didn't even think about it, and directly replied, "How effective are these magicians?"

Orlando said: "150 junior magicians, 40 intermediate magicians, and 10 advanced magicians."

Ryan shook his head and said, "No, the combat power I'm referring to is not such a useless title. How about their actual combat ability? If you don't release a magic, you should sit down and meditate?"

Keynst and others were worried about Ryan's attitude, for fear that Orlando would be angry.After all, Orlando is the commander of the Royal Knights and the highest military commander of the imperial capital. In a sense, he basically controls two-thirds of the imperial military power.Ryan's manner of speaking to him is not at all respectful like that of an opponent holding a heavy-armed superior, but rather as if he was talking quite casually with a friend.Of course, Keynst and the others do not know the relationship between Orlando and Ryan, nor do they know that Orlando can be regarded as Ryan’s half teacher. Ryan’s shallow knowledge about military and command is all selflessly taught from Orlando. Coupled with Falasi's relationship, naturally there is no need to tremble like an outsider.

Orlando shook his head slightly and said, "I'm not a magician. You are more familiar with this aspect. Well, from tomorrow, you will be in charge of these 200 people. I just heard General Keynst say that you are Clark. A squad leader under the legion, why don’t you come out independently and command these magicians as mercenaries. After all, they are not part of the army. If they are directly assigned to various squads, the effect may not be good."

Ryan thought about it carefully, and said: "I have an idea, regardless of their strength, these magicians are put together in a unified manner. Then a part of the sword and shield warriors are mobilized, and the largest shield is used to protect these magicians, so that they have no worries. Attack. Then you can add some archer assistance. After all, the magician has limited magic power, and it takes time to cast spells. Some elite archers can also make up for it. Well, because of the terrain, these magicians must stay on the wall , If the orcs climbed up, it would be very troublesome. Just mobilize some spearmen to form a phalanx and stand in front of the magician. A small number of orcs cannot break through this spear phalanx in a short time. These time is enough The magician casts a spell. This magician-based troop does not assign specific lines of defense. It can be divided into several teams according to the method I just said. One is placed on the wall at intervals to support the most critical mobile forces. local."

Orlando laughed, and asked Ryan, "Is this what you came up with?"

Ryan nodded shyly and said, "Since I saw Farasi just now, I have been thinking..."

Orlando waved his hand and interrupted Ryan's explanation: "Just do what you said. The manpower is selected from the soldiers I brought. They were also trained according to this idea."

Keenster, who was sitting on the side, had a higher evaluation of Ryan. This young magician was really knowledgeable. The method he just said was actually the standard configuration and combat method of the Legion under Fernando I 200 years ago. , It's just that you have to join the Holy Knight in the field.

"Everyone is gone." Orlando said: "There are still a few days to be your Majesty's 30th birthday. I hope you will do your best. Let us use the blood of the orcs as a coronation gift for your Majesty!"

At night, Lane’s residence.

Due to the arrival of Faras and others, Ryan asked him to set up another tent next to his residence as the residence of Faras and Alina.But after dinner, Ellendor called to Flanner, took Elina out and wandered around, leaving only Faras and Ryan in the tent to complain to each other.

At the request of Farath, Ryan told about his own experience after separation, but what he didn't expect was that Falasi didn't care too much about the dangers Ryan encountered, but about that everywhere. Interested in the female thief of Lane.

"Ryan, is that Daphne beautiful?" Falasi snuggled into Ryan's arms, her lips whispered in her ear, "Is it beautiful with me?"

"Cough, cough," Ryan coughed a few times when he heard the words. This is a sensitive question. In case of answering the intention of illegal drawing, it will suffer.However, when Ryan's eyes rolled, he immediately took measures. He said casually: "Oh, I have forgotten what the female thief looks like. At that time, I devoted myself to the production of the magic circle. Miss you."

After listening to Ryan's words, Falash showed a smile on her face, and then gently pinched Ryan's earlobe with her hand, and said in a tired voice, "Okay! It's only been a few days since I haven't seen you, your glib tongue has improved a lot. ."

Ryan's body stiffened suddenly, not because of Farasi's words, but because of the sore tingling sensation that Farasi squeezed his earlobe gently.

"Hehe, it doesn't really matter." Farasi's lips were almost close to Ryan's ears: "Anyway, you are mine. The more girls who like you, the better you are, doesn't it?"

Ryan resisted the tingling sensation in the earlobe and defended: "Fanny, I don't have..."

Before he finished speaking, Ryan's mouth was covered by a soft hand, and the soft voice in his ear sounded again: "Fool!"

Ryan couldn't bear it anymore. He pulled Farasi's shoulder roughly, hugged Farasi in his arms, and then said in a condescending posture: "Fanny, you don't trust me, I, I I want to punish you!"

Faras didn't speak, she just lay her neck back in Ryan's arms, then closed her eyes, raised her small chin, and opened her lips slightly.Looking at Farasi’s red lips, Ryan’s mind seemed to have detonated 100 fireballs together. The blood in his whole body seemed to have poured into his head. Ryan’s body had even begun to tremble slightly, and his face was even more flushed. .

Ryan put one hand on Farasi’s slender waist and one hand on Farasi’s back, staring at Farasi’s slightly trembling eyelashes and the bright red lips, suddenly an impulse surged. , Kissed desperately.

The thoughts of more than 150 days and nights were rewarded at this moment. This young couple once again intertwined their two hearts that missed each other, and time seemed to be released by a forbidden magic." Time stops", condensed at this moment, if you have to add a time limit to this magic, it is forever...
