Regarding the situation on the front line, Iron Axe has deduced it with Itis hundreds of times.

The conclusion is that before the personnel and equipment are fully equipped, it is difficult for the First Army to take the initiative and can only focus on defense. Even if all the troops are present, they must fight flexibly and try to find the enemy's main force to annihilate it with one blow. Once the battle is dragged into the Red Mist Zone, the situation will become extremely unfavorable.

"According to the information from Tachila, the red mist of the obelisk will eventually spread to most of the wolf's heart," Iron Axe pointed to the red arc on the map, "so our defense will be longer than before. Considering the warning and preparation time, there are four cities near the arc suitable for current defensive strongholds - from east to west, namely Jinshiling, Fengxiaobao, Xiaosha City and Shenchi Bay."

These four cities are connected into a broken line across the wolf's heart, echoing the future red fog area.

"But now the First Army does not have enough troops to defend the four places at the same time, so it can only focus on defense. The most important strongholds among them are undoubtedly Shenchi Bay and Xisha City - they are horns and are located at the apex of the Red Mist Zone, less than 50 kilometers away from the front of the enemy. If they are lost, the devil will have the opportunity to directly threaten the Lanshan Mountain."

"Especially the Shenchi Bay." Fu Xiaochenguang added, "It is the closest port to Langxin in Langxin. Now there is 30% of the materials needed to be transported through it. Losing Shenchi Bay means that the assembly speed will be greatly delayed, and this consequence will be unimaginable."

"No need to be so tactful," Itise said openly, "If the devil conquered Shenchi Bay now, then we would have lost half of the battle of divine will. Fortunately, the enemy might have encountered problems with human hands - after all, it is not easy to build the obelisk on the spine of the mainland to keep the transportation smooth."

Perhaps only the North Pearl dared to say the word "defeated" at such a meeting. Iron Axe coughed helplessly, "In short, we might as well assume that the devil also encountered the same difficulties as us, and was busy opening a "shortcut" among the mountains. Of course, no matter what the real reason is, the First Army cannot miss this opportunity - at least before the North and South arteries are penetrated, neither city should be missed."

He paused and continued, "At present, there are 3,000 troops stationed in Shenchi Bay and Sharbor City, and the trenches and permanent fortifications are under construction. In addition, I have arranged a reserve team of 1,000 people, located behind the two cities, so as to support the front line at any time. However, this is still not safe enough. I hope Miss Sylvie can provide reconnaissance and early warning for Shenchi Bay like in the past, while Miss Maisie is responsible for the other one."

"I see."

"no problem."

"Gu!"

The three of them responded at the same time.

"As for Jinshiling and Fengxiao Fort, I arranged a team of 500 people to guard it, but these two cities are far from the Red Mist Zone, and it is unlikely that the devil will launch a sudden attack. Even if there is, it will definitely be a terrifying beast." Iron Axe saluted Tilly, "So, please come down to the Princess to be responsible for the air alert in the area."

Tilly nodded, "Don't worry, the Sky Knight was born to fight against the Terror beast."

"The end is the Dagong Island." The Iron Axe pointed to a large island on the east side of the map. "Although it will eventually be covered by red fog, it still has extremely high strategic value. Not connected to land means easy to defend and difficult to attack. The madman needs to cross two or three kilometers of strait to reach the island. Whether those spider demons have the ability to cross the river is still another problem. Flying terror beasts can come and go freely, but their ability to attack is limited, which does not cause much trouble to fortifications such as bunkers."

"As long as the Dagong Island is in our hands, the Sandpit Bay located below it will be much safer. Similarly, it can also serve as a dagger that lies across the enemy's waist - if you set up artillery in the city, it can cover the entire beachhead and land within ten kilometers."

"But there is always a red fog area..." Aegas worried.

"The General Staff has also considered this point," Northland Pearl took over the topic, "so the number of people guarding the island was set at 500. Even if it was difficult to hold on to the devil's desperate attack, Shenchi Bay could send a fleet to respond and withdraw immediately. There is no evidence yet that the enemy also has a powerful fleet at sea."

"That... can I mention a little?" Wendy said.

"Please say it."

"I have been in the Monastery of the Old Holy City for more than ten years, so I remember that there are several roads directly to the Helmes Plateau, both Wolf Heart and Yongdong. Especially the latter, most of which are located between the mountains of desperate situations. Is it possible for the devil to use these mountain paths to raid Helmes? After all, there are divine stone veins there."

Wendy's words caused a lot of discussion.

There is no doubt that once the devil erects the obelisk in the center of the four kingdoms, it will be much fatal than the strongholds on the fertile plains. The red mist pouring down from the plateau will engulf the last corner of the continent, and humans will have no place to hide.

"This is indeed possible, but it is not easy to achieve it." There was a hint of praise in Itis's tone, "No matter the past two battles of divine will, the devil can only establish one obelisk at a time. First of all, they are not allowed to dispatch a large number of troops across the desperate mountains and go to the Hermes Plateau. These mountain paths are not secret, and a few reconnaissance sentry points can be set up to monitor them. Once the action is exposed, the enemy will fall into an extremely passive situation."

"So even if the devil wants to set up a new holy city, they can only act in the form of an elite team like they did in the past when they attacked the hidden forest. Even if they arrived in Hermes, they could not quickly build an obelisk. Moreover, the Hanfeng Ridge is only one step away from the plateau, and their chances of erecting an obelisk under the eyelids of the Gray Castle are slim."

"It turns out that the General Staff had considered it," Wendy breathed a sigh of relief, "this way I'll feel relieved."

"This is roughly the way forward arrangement of the First Army," concluded Tie Axe, "and we are trying to find out the whereabouts of the devil. To be honest, because of the lack of intelligence and insufficient staff, the First Army has been extremely passive in recent times. I am really happy to see you all. With your help, these problems can finally be compensated. When the army is fully equipped and the intelligence is sufficient, it will be the time for us to launch a counterattack!"

Next is the specific allocation of the witches.

For example, the leaves remained in Changshan and together with Lian, it transformed this border coniferous mountain full of traps.

Andrea, Sawei and others went to Shenchi Bay. For the fighting witches, they were everywhere on the front line.

Hummingbird and Morriel joined the logistics brigade, which increased the loading and unloading efficiency of the harbor terminal by a sudden increase.

Echo even took on the condolences to the ambassador and revitalized the morale of the soldiers with singing.

In this busy and intense preparation work, autumn has completed its last journey.

On the first day of winter, the sun did not rise as usual, and scattered snowflakes floated in the sky.

The first demonic moon after the appearance of God's will has arrived.
