Section 63 Intelligence
If the prince dies or the assassin escapes, the Yasurs will definitely search everywhere. Their return to peace means that the assassin has not succeeded and even lost his life.
"It sounds nice, but it's actually a waste!"
The witch softly cursed the dead assassin. She stepped back on tiptoe. This area is very safe. The six shadow warrior scouts arranged by Yasuols have all been killed by the assassins. She can do something without worrying about being discovered by anyone.
The witch took out a scroll from her bag and through a magical word, a faint light was generated on the scroll.
"Garard has failed." The witch answered in a respectful tone. "Prince Ashrufate is safe and sound." After saying this, she recited another magical word. The scroll instantly turned into smoke.
Her magic warning has been spread. Soon, the Wizard King will get this news and will take the next step to target. The Witch knows that it is time for her to leave, and without the help of the assassin, it will be difficult for her to get close to the army.
...
"Your Majesty, we have repelled the evil cousin's attack on the southern wing." An elf noble in armor saluted to the monarch on the throne. "But their offensive was not very fierce, so I think this attack was only tentative, with the purpose of finding out the loopholes in our defense. I examined the battlefield, and the losses of our enemies and us were roughly equal, but we held our positions."
"I understand." The Phoenix King replied softly. Over the past period of time, small-scale battles have become more and more frequent. The enemy is accumulating strength and looking for fighter jets, and all fronts are on high alert.
Around this elf nobleman, there are several people waiting for the latest news.
"What else is there?"
"Your Majesty, the latest news is that Prince Juda has found and annihilated the enemy fleet that has been harassing the coast. However, the situation is different from what was expected before, and the enemy fleet only has twelve warships."
My people are already tired of the war, they are uneasy. The Phoenix King feels a little bitter in his mouth. Even a small fleet has been exaggerated ten times. The war still shows no sign of ending, and we are beginning to lose confidence.
"Prince Zhuda's fleet lost three warships and captured one enemy warship."
"I see."
The war is going on at the same time on three fronts. On the local land, the two sides are in a confrontation, and the Shenwu elves are powerless to drive away the invading Dark Elves army, and the two sides enter a difficult and protracted war. At the sea, the Shenwu elves' fleet temporarily gained an advantage, but no one dared to say when this advantage can be maintained. On the enemy's local land, the expeditionary army suddenly lost all its information, as if it had disappeared from the world, and no one knew what had happened to them.
The expression of the last subordinate already indicated the news he was going to report.
"The Expeditionary Force...is there still no news?"
"Yes, the Dragon Princes did not hear any news." The clerk replied respectfully. "I tried hard to inform the Dragon Prince, but they remained silent. Looking for relevant information from other directions, and finally found that our evil cousin's local troops had abnormal movements."
"I want to be more specific."
"After Prince Ashurufat captured Anfoglis," the clerk said. "Our evil cousins began to gather troops and gather the local troops stationed in a large army to fight Prince Ashurufat. They thought the prince would go north along the coast, so they went south along the coast. However, the prince threw down the fleet and rushed straight to Dosonian in the inland, so their plan to block the coast was vain."
"Now this legion has gone to the inland, which is the information from half a month ago. If Prince Ashrufat was still active in that area... it would probably mean that he has been chased by the enemy now."
Has the Expeditionary Force failed? Although it has outstanding results, it still ends up...
"What about the news from the Emerald King Court? I remember that the records of the Expeditionary Force will be recorded."
"There is no new news, and the Queen has not responded."
The Phoenix King nodded. Things may not be that bad, at least there is hope.
The handling of this war ended, and soon he was the only one left around.
Is Prince Ashu Rufate? Why does it seem like... I can only put my hope on this prince of unknown origin? Maybe I didn't expect this to be the result at the beginning... That combat plan is really bold and dangerous. But I have to say that, as Prince Ashu Rufate himself said, this plan is the only opportunity to break the deadlock.
What are the Expeditionary Forces doing now? They are destroying the iron mines, or struggling under the attack of the enemy's superior army...
"Father." This call awakened the Phoenix King from his meditation. He opened his eyes and saw a young and beautiful girl standing in front of him.
"Najiya... it's you? I didn't say that I can't disturb me when I'm handling official duties."
Even though he said so, a fool could tell from his tone that he was not angry.
"I heard that Prince Ashu Rufat has lost his news, right?" asked the girl.
"Yes... are you here to ask this? The war has nothing to do with you." The Phoenix King felt a little amused. In order to boost morale, he ordered the record of Prince Ash Rufate to be widely announced. This was originally a disposal measure, but somehow made Prince Ash Rufate the dream lover of many girls, including his daughter. In fact, elves are no different from humans. The girls in the boudoir who are not well-informed in the world are always attracted by men who are full of legends, are very brave or mysterious in the stories and legends. Of course, the effect is even more obvious when the two are combined.
"I heard that the prince is now in the middle of the army alone, why don't you send a reinforcement for him?"
"I have no reinforcements to send." The Phoenix King replied. "You are also fascinated by those legends? Prince Ash Rufat actually has no outstanding appearance. If you see him, you won't like it. Moreover, you have never heard of this name a month ago."
The name "Ashu Rufate" actually does not conform to the naming habits of the elves. In terms of elves, it is a very difficult name. However, it is precisely because of this difficult wording that the name is easier to remember.
"But he is extremely brave and has outstanding military achievements."
"This is true." The Phoenix King said softly. "Now he can only rely on himself... no one can help him." He suddenly raised his voice. "He is a prince, with noble blood and powerful ability. He knows what he is doing!"
A sudden noise appeared outside, and then they saw several elves strode in from outside. They were the officials responsible for handling information from all parties for the Phoenix King.
"Your Majesty, Prince Ashrufat has brought the latest news." The leading man stepped forward two steps. "The prince used magical communication to convey the news that he has captured the important city in the middle of our Nagaros coastline - Grey Star Port."
If the Phoenix King felt a little happy, at least he did not show any of his face. On the contrary, Princess Najiya, who was standing aside, looked happy.
"Go and confirm this news right away."
...
The thick smoke came from where the wind was floating, mixed with the smell of blood, and rushed straight to the nostrils of the witch Iluvita.
Beside her, on the steps of the temple steps of the God of Blood Hand, there were corpses of the Divine Martial Elf and the Dark Elf Warrior. She won the battle temporarily, but there were not many soldiers left. At a further point, the retreating Divine Martial Elf has joined the reinforcements. Iluvita does not have to calculate the number of enemies, but can see at a glance that the number of Divine Martial Elf is more than five times more than her soldiers. Half of them are spear infantry, and the other half are silver-helmet knights who dismount. In addition, you can see several white lion warriors mixed in the crowd.
Iluvita believed that as time went by, more Yasuors would gather. But perhaps the corpses on the ground shocked these stupid and incompetent Yasuors, or the officers who did not take the lead, which made them not attack immediately, although they had an overwhelming number of numbers.
The witch looked at the sun's sunset horizon. It was emitting the last light of the day. The sky burned from orange to blood red, which seemed to correspond to the desperate battle on the earth. In another direction, the first night star at dusk had flashed. The wind in the air brought the smell of blood and fire, as if it was the breath blown by the God of Blood Hands himself. Blood and horror were exactly what the witches pursued. Bloodthirsty desires and endless hatred filled the witch's heart.
Although there are no enemies on both sides, no warrior around her dares to retreat. This is true for every dark elves who have seen the means of torture of deserters by the witches. They would rather die than face such a fate.
"Silly Yasuuls." The witch chief laughed. "You will be punished for ignorance. I will look at every level of your blood staining red on this stairs."
Her scimitar was covered with blood. She had been fighting to stay in the temple for the whole afternoon, and conservatively estimated that more than a hundred cousins had been killed under her knife. She had already covered her skin with their blood, making her look like she had just bathed in a blood fountain. She enjoyed killing these stupid invaders.
Of course, all this has come to an end. At this moment, the hustle and bustle of fighting in the city has gradually subsided. The Shenwu Elves have won, and they are now mobilizing their troops to attack all the strongholds that have not yet fallen.
"Your war is doomed to fail!" said the witch leader loudly, trying to tease the Yasu's officers to come forward to have a showdown with her. "Our God has long been doomed. He will witness your destruction in heaven and use my hands to prove your cowardice and incompetence. All your struggles are futile, and the shame and hatred we have suffered will be upheld and cleansed with your blood!"
Then she saw an officer leaping out, a white lion warrior holding a huge battle axe in his hand.
"Your God can't decide anything!" The white lion warrior rushed forward. "You will destroy you, the evil Duruchi! The ancestors gave me the strength to destroy you!"
