Chapter 365 - Surprise Attack on the Capital
Chapter 365: Surprise Attack on the Capital
Lei Luo used the money to bribe several great elders of Manlan United Trust.
He reached an alliance of attack and defense with them.
They also agreed to attack the Black Sea mercenary association together.
Because the capital was really big enough, Manlan United Trust agreed to all the requests.
They immediately sent troops to the capital of the Black Sea Mercenary Association.
Such a huge army was naturally impossible to keep as a secret.
After receiving this news, the Black Sea Mercenary Association immediately asked for help from Selklev.
Selklev also immediately sent troops to support them.
However, the Black Sea mercenary group said that in order to obtain reinforcements, they were willing to pay a huge amount of war aid.
However, they said that the army that asked Selklev to help defend their capital should not exceed 70% of their strength and that more troops should be used to attack the back of Emperor Victor and Manlan United Trust.
History also proved that Selklev did exactly as he was told.
During this period of time, Lei Luo had been staying in the magic environment of the Crystal Ball.
Emperor Victor’s army and Manlan United Trust’s army had already started their attack according to Lei Luo’s plan.
All the armies were approaching the capital of the Black Sea Mercenary Guild at full speed.
The reason why they chose this place was that Lei Luo looked at the map of the entire continent.
He discovered that there was a small mountain range on the way to the Black Sea Mercenary Guild.
The entire mountain range was the key to this battle.
It was in this small mountain range that Emperor Victor’s army and Manlan United Trust’s army under Lei Luo’s command were ambushed.
The ambushers were the Black Sea Mercenary Guild and the reinforcements from Selklev.
Caught off guard, the Manlan United Trust army was thrown into chaos.
In an instant, the losses were huge.
However, under the command of Lei Luo, the imperial army strangely maintained a complete formation.
Moreover, they cleverly escaped the occupation, and the Manlan United Trust Army had to fight alone.
When the Manlan and Vitos armies lost more than 50% of their forces, Lei Luo commanded the Victor Imperial Army to return to the battlefield.
However, it was not to support the Manlan and Vitos armies.
It was to attack both Selklev’s reinforcements and the Manlan and Vitos armies at the same time.
The best part was that at this time, the Black Sea Mercenary Guild’s armies also attacked both armies at the same time.
This was an attack without any warning.
Manlan, along with Velas and Selklev’s army, did not expect the situation to turn out like this.
After a bitter battle, they announced their surrender.
The entire battle process did not take more than twelve days in the crystal ball.
On the other hand, it took Lei Luo only four hours to command this war.
After the war ended, the surrendered army was immediately brought to the capital of the Black Sea Mercenary Guild for reorganization.
There, there were tens of millions of soldiers and assistive personnel arranged by Lei Luo.
In the crystal ball simulation environment, it was within a short 30 days.
In reality, it all happened in less than an hour.
All the surrendered troops and armaments were obtained by Emperor Victor and the Black Sea Mercenary Association.
After this battle, Manlan and Vitos lost almost 60% of their strength.
The remaining troops could only protect themselves.
Selklev lost almost one-sixth of his army.
However, the strength of Emperor Victor and the Black Sea Mercenary Association didn’t weaken. Instead, it increased greatly.
It was only enough time for the strength of the four sides to change greatly.
The combined forces of Emperor Victor and the Black Sea mercenary association had already surpassed Selklev’s strength.
The scariest thing was that Selklev still thought that his army was defending the Black Sea Mercenary Association.
This was the key point of the entire battle.
That was the speed of the information!
Lei Luo had checked the facts. According to the speed at that time, it would take at least twelve days for the information to reach Selklev.
During this time, they would have to use various sealing spells and various intelligence networks to confuse the information.
But at most, it would not take more than 12 days.
Lei Luo commanded the army of Emperor Victor and the people who surrendered.
It took them three days to reorganize.
After four days, Lei Luo commanded the coalition army to attack Selklev’s capital.
For this battle, Lei Luo brought almost all the magic crystals he could collect to replenish the mana of the magicians and to use large-scale teleportation magic circles.
Lei Luo knew that at this time, speed was everything!
While maintaining his basic combat strength, Lei Luo desperately used the teleportation magic circles to attack!
He only used six days to use more than 20 large-scale teleportation magic circles.
In total, ever since the war started until Emperor Victor’s army appeared in Selklev’s capital, only ten days had passed!
This meant that Selklev didn’t have any extra time to react.
He didn’t notice the magic fluctuations until he was teleported around the capital.
The two armies he sent out attacked Emperor Victor and Manlan.
The closest army to him needed thirty days to receive his order to retreat.
The earliest they could return was fourteen days.
When they returned seventeen days later, the war was over.
The retreating army had no other choice but to surrender.
When the husband who commanded the United Army appeared in the capital, he found that the strength of the enemy’s army was much stronger than they had expected.
The mages and swordsmen in their capital were on Selklev’s side. It was as they had thought. Lei Luo, who had been very nervous, also broke out in a sweat.
However, he still believed that he could easily win.
However, after that, a strange phenomenon occurred to Lei Luo when the two armies faced each other and officially engaged in battle
At first, everything went smoothly.
But when the army came into contact with the personal guards of the demon warriors that Selklev personally commanded, the situation suddenly changed.
Selklev, who was at a disadvantage in terms of military strength, actually dared to directly command his personal guards.
He launched a surprise attack on Emperor Victor, who had a million generals.
And at this time, the morale of Emperor Victor’s army, which was high, suddenly fell into a complete disadvantage.
Selklev’s personal guards, regardless of their morale or fighting will, including the coordination of the various troops, had reached a perfect state.
This sudden burst of fighting strength was impossible to estimate.
This situation made Lei Luo dumbfounded. “This is impossible…”
He didn’t believe that Selklev’s commanding ability would improve so much in an instant.
At this point, however, it was too late for Lei Luo.
He had to react immediately.
