Chapter 765 Breaking Dawn
Chapter 765 Breaking Dawn
A small desert town in the north of the Kingdom of Feiduo has now become a military camp.
The city lord issued an order to mobilize all the troops he could, and he wanted to rely on this army of 10,000 to flatten the maze valley.
All the soldiers were gathered at the entrance of the valley, and the residents of the town were forcibly recruited to serve as guides for the army.
The gathering of such an army of tens of thousands naturally attracted the attention of the descendants of King Pingbei in the valley.
As the four Ada brothers were guarding the entrance to the valley, they sneaked out and collected complete data including the number of enemy troops.
At this time, in the secret military camp in the valley, all the soldiers were already wearing armor, with swords on their waists, holding spears and crossbows, ready to fight at any time.
In the central military tent, Dean and his men were making battlefield deployments.
Chen Cheng and King Pingbei were considering whether to really destroy the entire enemy army.
It’s not that they can’t do it, but we need to consider the series of consequences that will be caused by eliminating them.
Just as Chen Cheng had said to the soldiers before, their population is limited and they cannot compete with the forces of the kingdoms outside.
If it really attracts the attention of the kingdom's top leaders, the only option left is to migrate.
While Chen Cheng and the other two were thinking, Dean and the others had already come up with a complete battle plan.
"Your Majesty, Your Highness, please take a look at this battle plan. If you have any questions or requests, please raise them immediately and we will revise them immediately."
Dean handed the battle plan to Chen Cheng and the others.
Chen Cheng just glanced at it twice and knew that it would be easy for them to capture more than 10,000 people.
"What's important now is not how to annihilate them, but the series of turmoil that will be triggered after their annihilation.
His Majesty has determined the direction of our future struggle, and we must emphasize concealment, and at the same time, it is best not to have too much contact with the enemy here."
King Pingbei sighed and shook his head.
When King Pingbei said this, Bourne and others present fell silent.
After listening to Chen Cheng's lectures, these people became much calmer than before and knew that the direction of struggle Chen Cheng talked about was correct.
At this moment, Dean's eyes became firm, and then he looked at Chen Cheng and the others and said:
"Your Majesty, Your Highness, in my opinion, this is not a bad thing.
I believe everyone is aware of the fanatical mood outside now. Even if we can avoid this time in our secret place, as long as no accurate news is leaked, someone will come sooner or later.
This time, the enemies we encountered were not strong. If possible, we should give them a fatal blow, but we must not let them see our people. Instead, we must take advantage of the natural traps in the valley maze.
At the same time, most of the enemy's high-level forces need to be eliminated.
Capture the city lord who was responsible for this action, and then send people to leave with him to take control of him and his city.
This way, we can not only spread the news that this place is dangerous and there are no imperial orphans, but also control the nearest city lord, and seek the safest environment for us to develop in the dark."
What Dean said was very bold. As long as there was any exposure, this secret place would definitely be exposed, and they would not even have time to escape.
Because if the enemy is directly annihilated and no one is left alive, then at least with the current administrative efficiency, it will take at least several days to discover that the entire army has been wiped out.
Then we have to find out whether the annihilation of the entire army was due to natural factors, and then redeploy troops. It will take at least one month.
With this month, there is still enough time to transfer.
And if he follows his plan, and takes the city lord back with him, if he leaks the news, then he can abandon all the previous complicated procedures and there is no need to mobilize troops, because experts will come to encircle and suppress the enemy first.
It can be said that Dean is gambling, gambling that their actions are powerful enough and the enemy is weak enough, and at the same time he is also gambling that the city lord who takes the lead is a coward.
There was silence in the tent for a long time, until Chen Cheng made the final decision:
"Okay, let's use your plan.
But I need to improve.
After we succeed, we will capture the remaining prisoners and make them help us mine as punishment.
At the same time, a group of outstanding talents selected by us will be directly put into the liberation cause of the northern city. Those among them who have successfully undergone ideological transformation and performed well can also go out with us.
We will take control of the entire city from top to bottom, and our approach will start from the small towns and villages outside the city."
"Now that the decision has been made, let's name this operation - Dawn."
"The darkness will soon pass, and light will return to the world."
As the action plan was determined, a new action plan was quickly formulated.
Fortunately, King Pingbei and his men had already considered this matter, so they had set up many seemingly natural and deadly traps in the valley maze.
This is why this valley maze is called the Death Maze by local townspeople.
Outside the valley, the city lord's army gathered here, and standing in the front were not soldiers in armor, but a group of townspeople wearing civilian clothes.
"Soldiers, there are orphans of the empire living here. If you capture one of them, dead or alive, you will receive fifty gold coins."
The city lord's words were the best stimulant for these vicious people living in the north.
They waved their swords and shouted that they would kill the orphan and get the reward.
"Set off."
Following the city lord's order, the rabble of adventurers, gangsters, and regular city guards drove the residents of the small town in front of them into the valley.
The residents of these towns were either crying or looking as if they were about to die.
Because no one knows the horror of the Death Valley better than them. Not only are there natural death traps, but there are also magical sandworms that eat people.
They also didn't think that the orphans would live here, because as far as they knew, Mangliu finally took Chen Cheng and the others into the desert, not here.
Therefore, the bounty that the city lord mentioned had no appeal to them at all. On the contrary, the name of death here scared them.
Not long after they started walking, several forks in the road appeared in the valley. The city lord and his men seemed to have been prepared for this and they split into several teams and entered each of the forks one by one.
Each team was also equipped with extremely expensive communication magic devices.
The news of the army's actions was naturally passed on to the secret place in the valley. Dean and his team placed enemy action models on the sand table, and then without the need for reports on the battle situation from the front line, they could depict the enemies being strangled by traps.
Subsequent front-line military reports also confirmed this.
At this time, in the Death Valley, several teams that had been separated had suffered a devastating disaster.
Either there is a landslide or a sudden natural toxic barrier.
As we go deeper and deeper, man-eating monster sandworms begin to appear.
Many people disappeared while walking, which directly caused fear among the mob. The team immediately became chaotic and even fled.
As the large army panicked, the seemingly solid cliffs of the valley began to collapse, and large pieces of weathered and peeling rocks fell from the sky, killing and injuring countless people.
