C46 A Tug of War(2)

The fortress was quiet, and the Artes on the other side roared and charged at the walls. "Hmph! Ignorant! They have nearly two legions, how could they be destroyed by you mages? Do you think the mages on the other side have nothing to eat? "

As Sky High had expected, when most of the soldiers had already rushed to the front of the fortress... The other side's mages began to move. "Boom! Boom!" The earth trembled. "Earth magic!" Before Sky High could react, the ground in front of him started shaking even more violently. "Bang!" With a loud sound, the ground in front of them cracked open.

A large crack several meters wide appeared in front of the fortress. Although the soldiers were very cautious, not many people fell into the crack. However, the crack had already separated Arte's army from the front and back. Just as they were still confused, several tornadoes started blowing.

The soldiers in front of the fortress could not jump over the crack and escape. They could only stand there and be swept away by the tornadoes. For a moment, miserable screams could be heard without end. All the soldiers at the front were not spared. Some of the soldiers had their bodies shredded by the wind blades. Broken limbs flew everywhere. Some of them were directly cut in half at the waist. There were also some who were not really injured inside. However, he fell from the sky and died. He was lucky enough to survive, but he was also shot to death by the enemies on the wall. In front of the fortress, the ground was covered in blood, once again turning into hell on earth.

Ten thousand people! This assault had lost more than ten thousand soldiers' lives. However, it did not have any practical effects. They had only used magic to destroy a portion of the enemy's strongholds. However, construction would be restored in a few days. From then on, Stuya couldn't afford to be sick, so he temporarily gave the command to Du Wei Linke. This battle had become the biggest failure in his life.

"What a powerful move! It seems like the other party had already predicted his father's intentions. I think the resistance on the wall isn't that strong. It seems like most of the troops have already retreated to a safe place. When the magic here is over, the other party can reasonably use his own magician. Knowing that the range of magic was limited, he directly used earth magic to create a large crack. Split up our army, then kill all of the trapped soldiers. This move is really poisonous! My poor father has been led by the nose and hasn't realized it yet." Tian Qingtian was once again shocked by the intelligence of the enemy commander. "Talent, absolute talent! There was no such talent in the 21st century!"

"Sigh! Looks like the three of them don't have any good ideas. It has already been more than a month since I, this young master, personally took action. Thinking about Catherine and Na'er, she definitely can't wait any longer. That's good too. Let her come here this time." So, Qingtian wrote a letter and asked Ray to bring it back to Maya.

The letter roughly said this and told Maya to directly find Princess Catherine. He told her that the war ahead was not favorable and then suggested to the Emperor that he bring ten battalions of troops over to support. With the arrival of the Princess, the morale of our soldiers will definitely rise. Furthermore, tell that future father-in-law of mine to pass the command of the army to me. Also, promise me that within half a month, not a single soldier will be sacrificed. He would take down the Xigang Mountain vein. Just like that, with the disappearance of Ray, Qingtian's plan officially began.

Catherine, who had received Qingtian's letter, was overjoyed. Before she left, her sweetheart had told her about it. When he sent her the letter, she would be able to go to the border legally. After reading the contents, Catherine did not even think about it. She directly went to Yat V's place to be a lobbyist.

Yat V was very cautious when he read the letter. Three experienced generals returned in defeat. Could a sixteen year old child do it? However, his suggestion was not bad. They had been defeated in a row. The arrival of the princess at this time would definitely raise the morale of the soldiers. It was really a good idea. Furthermore, Catherine did not need to go to the battlefield. It was just a siege battle. It would be good to just stand by and watch from afar. She did not need to constantly bother herself over here. Anyway, this kid said that he wouldn't waste a single soldier. He just wanted to see what kind of ability he had! Just like that. Emperor Art assigned little princess, Catherine, to the battlefield in person.

Half a month's time passed just like that. During that time, the Empire Army organized a few more attacks. Both sides suffered losses, but there was still no breakthrough progress. At this time, Her Royal Highness arrived with a decree.

"Due to the unfavorable situation of the war, General Stuya Fernandez fell ill. I hereby bestow Ashlow Fernandez with the title of earl of the empire, commanding the army. Count Ashlow will be in charge of everything. No one was allowed to interfere for any reason. Yat V."

Such shocking news exploded like a bomb in the military, a sixteen-year-old count! This was something that had never happened before in the history of the continent. Stuya had been a soldier for his entire life, and only now did he become a count. It could be seen how lucky Qingtian was. He directly climbed to the height of a count. "Hmph! This father-in-law really treats me well. He pushed me to such a position now. Looks like I have to fight a good battle. He had given his daughter to another official. Hehe, looks like he has no other choice. But meeting me makes your luck turn for the better. When the time comes, I will lead my army into Menes and seize a few thousand miles of land. When the time comes, land! Money! Beauties! Hahahaha." Tian Qingtian fell into his fantasies once again. He did not notice that his saliva was already dripping out.

Little princess did not let go of Qingtian the moment she saw him. What territory? What mineral vein? In her eyes, they were worthless. Only her own feelings were the most important! "Ashlow, is Father happy to grant you the title of Count? "It was a beautiful afternoon, and Qingtian was lying on a chair, eating the fruits the Princess peeled. His small life was very comfortable. It was as if the war had nothing to do with him. "Mmm, it's alright. Father-in-law's move is really ruthless. He pushed me to the highest point. It would be terrible if I fell down. " " What!? No way, you're a genius! This small matter is not difficult for you. Isn't it just a mine? It's easy to take it down." Catherine looked at Qingtian with deep affection from the side.

"You are right. I don't dare to say anything else, but I am very confident in this matter. Actually, there is no need to forcefully attack. When the season arrives... Those people from Menes will take the initiative to give up the place to us. So, there was no need to rush. Just wait patiently. The sturdier their strongholds are, the better. They are all built for us. Hehe!" Tian Qingyou was very pleased. It seemed that the mine was already in his possession.

"Are you really that confident? Tell me quickly!" Catherine did not believe that Atlas had such a good idea. "Shh! Secret! The enemy commander is very powerful. Even the experienced generals like Du Wei and Du Wei have been defeated by him. If my plan is revealed, then it won't work. The Hillmen have their own plans. Just wait and see. Hahaha."
