Chronicles of Ryan the Wizard

"Since humans appeared on this plane, war has been by our side. From the beginning of the infantry melee to the later cavalry charge, from holding stones and wood blocks to being covered by steel armor, the means of war have become more and more. Rich. Since the birth of His Majesty Fernando's Royal Knights, the cavalry has become the absolute main force on the battlefield. This concept has been deeply ingrained in people's minds."

"However, my teacher, in the Cassano war against foreign aggression at the end of February 206 of the Guangxi Calendar, he showed all humans in this world a means that can replace the knight to rule the entire battlefield. This is In a war with an outnumbered enemy, the number of elite Senat legions that came was 120,000, but the entire Cassano was only 200,000 or tens of thousands of people. The three elite troops of Cassano that you see now are there. At that time, it was not even fully formed, and there was no record of frightening the enemy."

"The whole war lasted only seven days, yes, only seven days. However, in this long time as seven centuries, I followed the teacher the whole process, and witnessed how he changed the mode of war in the mainland. The Iron Fist Castle Guards Corps, the Windfall Archer Corps, and the Death Scythe Magic Corps that you know now have just begun to emerge from that war..."

Archmage Barbara "The Years in Cassano"

The loud bugle sounded throughout the camp, and tens of thousands of soldiers from the Senat Legion moved out slowly to face the rising sun. Their neat pace brought the Cassano soldiers stationed on the opposite side at Lancer Fort. Great shock.After spending four days sweeping the village near the Lancer Fortress, the last fortress east of the Iron Fist Castle, the commander of the Senat Army finally lost his breath. He decided to take down the fortress in front of him today. The new city of Tekken Castle, which was still being built, became another woman without clothes.

"General Chez!" A messenger came galloping on the horse. He brought the Chess legion, one of the two elite legions that the Senate army had invaded Cassano, with the commander of the other legion. Lun’s announcement.Just about 30 minutes ago, Warren had led his 60,000 army to the north of Lancer fortress to set up a formation, ready to attack at any time, and also divided 20,000 troops northward for 30 kilometers to garrison to prevent reinforcements from the imperial capital.

"Please go back and tell General Warren right away!" The tall and thin General Chase was about 40 years old. He said to the Herald: "About an hour later, our army will launch an attack on Lancer. If Cassano’s reinforcements have not arrived, we will meet him directly under the Iron Fist Castle!"

"Observe, Your Excellency General!" After receiving the order, the messenger ran away on the same road under the protection of a dozen soldiers.

Looking at the messenger who was slowly disappearing, General Chez turned his head and looked at the 50 dump trucks slowly rolling out from the camp, secretly proud.In fact, he and Warren didn’t start a strong attack. In addition to sweeping the surrounding strongholds to relieve their army’s logistical pressure when attacking Iron Fist Castle, it was just to transport wood from the Wallo Mountains to make these. A powerful siege weapon.

These dump trucks can throw more than 100 kilograms of boulders directly into places 1,500 meters away at a time. For a small fortress such as Lancer, it is almost a gift from the gods.Of course, Chase took them out all at once, more to deter the enemy, the real purpose of these dump trucks was in Iron Fist Castle, not here.

"Are you going to attack? Your Excellency General. Our formation is ready!" The adjutant next to him shouted loudly.

"Wait, we will have a while before our appointment with Warren," Chase raised his head and looked at the sky, and said with a relaxed expression: "You won't even give such a little time to our enemies, are you? No, we must learn to be kind and let them write a suicide note. It will not be too late for us to attack."

"Hahahaha!" All the generals around Chez laughed. Indeed, now they have used 120,000 troops to besiege Lancer fortress with only 5,000 people, and they also have such a huge number of dump trucks, no victory at all. Suspense, but the biggest suspense is how much time they will spend, is it 20 minutes?Or an hour?Anyway, it won’t take more than 2 hours?If everything goes well, lunch can probably be enjoyed in Lancer Fort.

After a while, General Chase looked up again to look at the sky, and found that the time agreed with General Warren was almost around, so he waved his hand and gave the order to attack.The 50 stone dump trucks slowly began to move forward. After reaching the range, they immediately began to throw huge stones and burning wood at Lancer Fortress. Soon, Lancer Fortress fell into a sea of ​​flames.

With a loud bang, the walls of Lancer Fortress could no longer hold up. After being hit by a stone dumper for more than 40 minutes, a section of the city wall collapsed, and the front of the Chess Army, which had already been prepared, immediately used this The gap was the breakthrough point and the onslaught began. The soldiers stationed in the Lancer fortress in Cassano stubbornly relied on the fortifications in the fortress to resist. The two sides fought fiercely until Chez frowned and plunged into the fourth. The brigade, after putting 12,000 soldiers in a row, finally won the last fortress of the Iron Fist Castle in the east.

Chez frowned and walked up the wall of the dilapidated Lancer fortress. The body of the Cassano warrior who died under his feet, soaked the ground with blood, and dyed Chez’s boots red. These guys, let His army lost a total of 6,000 men.Then the next thing made him feel even more angry, because according to his report statistics, there were only 2,000 Cassano soldiers who died in the Lancer Fort.

"2000 people? Didn't the intelligence say that there are 5000 people stationed here?" Chez thought very strangely: "Where did the 3000 people go, were they transferred away, or was the previous intelligence wrong?"

"Your Excellency, what should we do now?" Chez's adjutant asked about the next move of the legion in a soft voice. After a little thought, Chez gave the order for the whole army to advance. Maybe there is someone on Cassano's side. An unknown plan, but in any case, as long as he and Warren's two legions surround the Iron Fist Castle, no matter how many tricks Cassano has, it will not help.

"The Lancer fortress has fallen, and all the 2000 defenders died!" Adela said in a emotionless voice: "The enemy of the Chess has passed the Lancer fortress and is approaching Ironfist Castle. The leading troops are less than 30 minutes away from us. Kilometers away."

Ryan sat quietly on the chair and said nothing to Adela, while Vivian asked Adela, "What is your plan?"

"In fact, I didn't expect you to come back so quickly. I originally thought you would arrive after tomorrow afternoon. I didn't expect you to arrive yesterday evening. I have to say that the horses of the Royal Knights are really amazing. Envy." Adela said: "My previous plan was to shrink as much as possible to avoid the greatest loss. Therefore, Senat’s legion wanted to fight against and create pressure for us, so I simply took advantage of it. With this opportunity, all the people around Lancer fortress moved to the rear."

"Not only that, because it is already certain that the Lancer Fortress will inevitably fall, I even secretly transferred back 3000 garrisons last night. Although these soldiers belonged only to the garrison, this number of troops still cannot be sacrificed casually for us. Now we are Cassano stationed a total of 30,000 troops in the Iron Fist Castle. The master's three elite troops totaled 10,500 people, including 5,000 guards of the Iron Fist Castle, 5,000 archers trained by Ceres, and those magic apprentices. In addition, there are nearly 20,000 ordinary troops. They can consolidate the rear, but it is still a little difficult to charge and trap."

"Master, what is your plan? Yesterday to now, no matter what news you hear, you have never said a word. Now the enemy has gone straight to the Iron Fist Castle!" Arad looked at the silent Ryan with some anxiety. , But Ryan remained silent.

The people in the entire room turned their eyes to Ryan, because the latter was their leader, and the lord of the entire Cassano. When the enemy army was using superior forces to crush the territory, Ryan hurried back, but he turned to Casa Nuo said nothing about the situation, and just sat quietly for more than ten hours. What exactly did he plan to do?

Vivienne whispered to Ryan, "Ryan, you can say a few words, even if it is to boost morale."

Ryan smiled at Vivienne, looked around, saw Adams, Vivienne, Adela, Barbara, Seres and Moses, slowly speaking: "I only have seven days."

Ryan’s words and methods seemed to be thrown into a small pebble on the calm lake, which immediately caused waves in the lake. Everyone present was shocked. The enemy here was very elegant, and Ryan said that he only has seven days. What is he? Are you only planning to come back and stay for seven days, or are you planning to deal with the 120,000 elite enemy forces in seven days?

If the people present had not witnessed Ryan’s convincing record one after another, they would definitely think Ryan was crazy, but because of the habit of fighting with Ryan before, they didn’t doubt Ryan’s words. Just waited silently for Ryan to continue talking.

"The current situation is that we have few people and many enemies. This is an unchangeable thing. The Emperor will not send reinforcements. This is also an unchangeable thing." Ryan said with a nonchalant expression: "So we only have 30,000 people. To be precise, it is more than 20,000 elite troops stationed in Iron Fist Castle. We can only use these people to deal with Senat’s 120,000 elite troops. If we continue to deploy troops from other places, it will not only affect local security, but also There may be more problems, such as other guys who border us and prepare to take advantage of the fire."

"Therefore, there is only one plan for me, that is, there is no plan." Ryan slowly said what he thought in his heart: "The most favorable situation for the enemy at the moment is that we have a main battle between the two sides. Very good, then we will accommodate them. , If possible, it will be done near the Iron Fist Castle. I don’t have much time. It will take about 2 days for them to gather here? Then all we have to do now is to wait, yes, wait, this is also me The reason for not saying a word from yesterday to now, because they are proceeding completely according to my thoughts, and I don’t need to change this fact."
