Originally, Zhao Lanlan was not among the scheduled candidates on the list of personnel, but before departure, after escorting the last batch of cavalry with Zhou Xun, she stayed regardless of Li Ran's dissuasion, saying that she wanted to see the glory of the Salanka Empire, but everyone understood her feelings.

After hearing Zhao Lanlan's words, Bao Zhuoyi, who was standing beside him, couldn't help but spit out and said, "Bao! If it weren't for the guy Nuches who sent nearly 500,000 people to chase us, and the support and baggage troops were attacked by us several times, they could have defended the fortress?"

The teammates couldn't help but agree with Bao Zhuoyi's words. At this time, some of the legion generals around him nodded repeatedly, counting the entanglements and depressions of these days, including the casualties and losses of their subordinates, all of which were on the heads of these people. In their hearts, they felt even more disgusted with the nobles of the Holy Falcon League.

However, they were also curious to find that after listening to Zhao Lanlan's words, the prince Li Ran had not spoken for a long time.

Just when everyone felt something was wrong, Li Ran suddenly said, "When you go back at this time, you can only be considered as barely completing the task at most. In the eyes of the people of the Holy Falcon League, you may not be as guilty as our sin of leaving the Lyon stronghold."

"Brother Ran, do you mean?" Seeing Li Ran say this, everyone present was slightly stunned, and Cai Chang asked first.

Looking around, especially on several legion generals, Li Ran even looked at it for a long time and said: "This march is very dangerous. For the sake of the Holy Falcon Alliance, we hid in and out like a broken dog. So far, nearly 10,000 people have fallen down. What's even more hateful is that we brave soldiers are not dead in the real battlefield. I believe everyone knows that most of them sacrificed to protect us."

Hearing this, the atmosphere was a little heavy, and when he thought of the soldiers who died, the generals present at the legion were even more sad and angry, showing a sad expression.

"It can be said! At this moment, the obligations I have made for the Holy Falcon Alliance have been fulfilled!" Speaking of this, looking at the generals whose moods have gradually changed, Li Ran suddenly said loudly: "But the blood of our Tel City warriors cannot flow. Even though the Salanka Empire hates us so much, and does not even sacrifice the troops from the front line to encircle our soldiers and let our soldiers bury their bones in a foreign land, then I will announce it here, starting from now on! Our army has entered a formal state of war! The first goal is the Toliman troops coming from the rear, so that they can know what the heroism of the warriors is! What the glory of Tel City is!"

At the same time, Duke Griffiz, located in the fortress, was now understanding the casualties of his troops through the adjutant's report.

During this last month of offensive and defensive battle, he held the fortress under his feet, and judging from the current situation, the troops on the opposite side of Salanka are no longer able to launch a powerful attack again. If nothing unexpected happens, he should be able to determine the responsibilities assigned by the empire.

But in the face of Duke Nuches's almost crazy attack, his troops here were suffering heavy casualties. In less than a month, not only did his troops lose 40%, but the main combat troops of 1.67 million people in the fortress were already less than one million, and most of the remaining ones were physically injured.

More than ten minutes later, the adjutant finally reported the details of the damage. After remembering these, the Duke of Greenohm suddenly stood up and slowly walked to the floor-to-ceiling window while thinking.

"Do you have any information about Prince Tyrris?" Looking at the condolences in the fortress, the duke suddenly spoke after a long time.

There were only two people in the room at this time, so after hearing his words, the adjutant who had just reported the list of deaths, felt a little strange, but he immediately replied: "Since the last message, there is no information from the Prince of Khan Locke Empire."

"Last message? Wasn't it been more than ten days?" Griffitz said with a frown.

Seeing the duke's unhappiness, the next moment, the adjutant stood up straight. He knew the duke's habits. The more angry he was, the more he couldn't stand the laziness of the people around him, and tried hard to straighten his body.

"Okay, you can't blame you, after all, he is behind the battlefield at this moment." Turning his head to look at the adjutant, Griffiz waved his hand in a daze and asked, "Do you think they can still live now?"

Hearing the Duke's question, the middle-aged adjutant said after thinking about it, "In my opinion, it is unlikely that they will survive. After all, according to the information last time, the Salanka Legion chasing behind him not only had more than 400,000 people sent by Duke Nuches, but also all the forces in that area seemed to have taken action. In this case, they~"

Although the adjutant didn't say this, Griffiz obviously understood what he meant. After a long time, he suddenly swung his fist and hit the wall heavily, which made the whole room tremble slightly.

"Stop your anger!" At this time, the adjutant hurriedly said: "This is just my personal guess. If this Prince Telris dares to take on this mission, maybe there may be other means of escape."

He snorted coldly, and at this time the Griffith said angrily: "I am not angry about this Telres. This man is ambitious and very capable. Although the king cooperates with him, he undoubtedly has the power to make a fuss with the tiger. Although I admire his control of the battle, I never regret giving this task to him. If he is wiped out in this battle, it will be no harm to the alliance. I hate the empire. Even at the critical moment of the life-and-death battle with the Salanka Empire, there are still those people who are willing to bet on the interests of the empire for their own interests. Fortunately, it is only Prince Telres. Then next time, who can guarantee that they will not sell us to the other party for their own selfish interests!"

As the Duke's adjutant for many years, this person also flashed his eyes and said, "Sir, is referring to the incident in which Prince Telris's identity is exposed? The only possibility is Marquis of Yukov of the Aukington Empire."

The corner of his mouth on his right side was slightly raised. At this time, the fortress commander changed his calmness in the conference room and said disdainfully: "This Prince Telres occupies nearly half of the territory of the Roaring Island. Coupled with the previous dispute, this matter must be inseparable from these selfish dwarves, but if it was all done by this Yukov, it would be too much for him."

After looking at the cold light flashing in Lord Griffiz's eyes, the adjutant seemed to have thought of something, but when he thought of the powerful Airoland, even the master above him did not say it clearly, and he even pretended not to hear it and stood up.

After a period of silence, just when the adjutant felt a little depressed, Griffith suddenly said, "Go to the Scout Corps and pass my orders! Let Li Ying arrange someone to go to the rear as soon as possible. Regardless of life and death, find out the situation of Prince Telres for me."

After saying this, without waiting for the adjutant to react, the Duke Griffiz also changed his subject and asked about the current situation of some other fortresses after the war. When he learned that on the original basis, another fortress was lost, and it was the Ukta Garbage Empire Fortress next to him, he quickly walked to the center of the room and carefully studied it based on the large real-life map here.

"I didn't expect that these barbarians were so crazy that they even lost the fortress guarded by Duke Bancrotoff." After a long time, the duke couldn't help but sigh and said, "It seems that when the next order of the Supreme Council of the Alliance comes, we will inevitably take action."

"Sir, right?" At this time, the adjutant also said, "The fortress commanded by Duke Bancrot is very close to us. As for Duke Alphrede's fortress on the other side, it could have been supported, but judging from the current information, although they can also defend, they were defeated outside the city gate twice, and this time they were both in the situation of losing both sides, so we are likely to be sent to get the fortress back next."

Regarding this matter, Griffiz shook his head helplessly and said, "I didn't expect that the Salanka Empire would be so crazy this time. Although we must have some advantages in terms of casualties between attack and defense, if we wait until they recover, these three lost fortresses may be even more difficult to get back. With these three fortresses as the basis, our next battle will be even more difficult to fight."

Hearing him say this, the adjutant said with some concern: "Sir, since the Salanka Empire has taken great pains to finally take down these three fortresses, then in this case, they will definitely increase troops here as soon as possible. Will it be risky if we just go there like this?"

Griffiz said indifferently: "If they want to win this time, it is certain that they will increase their troops in these three fortresses, but at that time, the Supreme Council will definitely not just let us go. Wouldn't that be equivalent to letting us die? Besides, the imperial capitals on our side, especially at this moment, maybe Uktara's reinforcements are already on the way."

Hearing this, the adjutant nodded, and after talking about the wars of some other fortresses for a while, especially several powerful lords, including Duke of Fortonmar in his country, Prince Seria of the Eroland Empire, etc. After the details of the war, seeing that Lord Griffiz gradually became sleepy, he also left here on the grounds of going to the Scout Corps.
