Twenty miles west of the fortress.

On the side of the Light Legion.

In the rear command base camp of the battlefield.

Hilbert met Archbishop Obalge and made a request to dispatch the ace troops.

"Sir, that fortress has been blocking us for three months, so we can't delay any more! I ask to send out the Paladins to level the fortress!"

As soon as he saw the Archbishop, Hilbert knelt down and asked.

Mobilize the Paladins?

Just to capture that seemingly trivial fortress?

Upon hearing Hilbert's request, Obalch frowned.

In fact, in the past three months, Obalge heard such a request by the mouths of different generals, and at most four or five times a day.

But he rejected them all.

He didn't want to use the ace troops so early.

Because the most common sense is: if you want to keep the ace until the end, use the ace from the beginning, what is the ace?

The more important reason is: the Paladins are an offensive force suitable for flat terrain, but now they are used to attack cities. Isn’t this a good weapon to use?

Moreover, the casualty rate of siege battles is extremely high, and the training of each Paladin is sky-high. It is too luxurious to ask Paladins to do ants to siege.

This is not suitable.

Therefore, Archbishop Obalge repeatedly refused to send the Paladin Order.

So what about the Holy Mage Group?

Isn’t there a Saint Mage Group with more than 30,000 people?

The Holy Master can release a variety of long-range attack magic, and send the Holy Master to take action, release more powerful long-range attack magic from a group of speeches. Wouldn't the fortress blocking the front be finished soon?

This is the truth.

only……

In the fort opposite, there are also a large number of legendary mages sent by magic associations, with as many as 100!

There are so many legendary mages, and the mass attacks released by the Holy Mages are basically blocked above the fortress, resulting in the inability to damage the buildings and personnel in the fortress.

In addition, the fortress is at a high level, and hundreds of cannons set up, and the shells fired by each cannon can hit ten miles away. Each of the powerful flowering bullets is no less than level 5 magic... The body of the holy mage is generally weak. Once the shield is broken or the defense is not comprehensive, the consequences are not difficult to imagine.

In order to avoid the fortress' shelling, the Holy Mages must release spell attacks ten miles away.

But even if the spell released at this distance is the "holy light explosion" released by the eighth-level holy mage, after flying ten miles away, not to mention how much the correct head drops, how many% of the power can be left?

What if the Holy Masters don’t attack in groups?

That is no match for the fortress opposite. There are 100 legendary wizards in the fortress. It is as easy as cutting melons and vegetables when dealing with a small batch of holy wizards.

Therefore, after nearly 2,000 people were killed or injured, the Holy Mage Group had to be hidden.

And the Paladins, as cavalry units, are not suitable for siege.

So you can only use the heads of ordinary soldiers to pile them up and consume the opponent's weapons and ammunition!

But three months have passed, is this practice useful?

"Sir, this will not work! Even if our men die, we may not be able to take the fortress. It is time to send out the Paladins!" Hilbert said anxiously.

But Obalhe still shook his head: "This is not the way the Paladin is used. We haven't hit the Kingdom of Yadud yet. Let's do this, and then order the front-line troops to increase their attacks. Send 50,000 people every day! Attack ten days in a row! I guess that fortress should be almost unable to hold on, and their casualties are at least half of them."

Half the casualties?

Hilbert was stunned and asked quickly: "Sir Bishop, who told you that the defenders in the fortress had more than half of the casualties? Who said?"

"General Bannon told me," Obalher said.

"Bannon? That incompetent idiot who only knows how to flatter?"

Hilbert muttered, and then said, "Sir, General Bannon is so optimistic. If you believe him, we will die millions more!"

He said solemnly: "In fact, the enemy casualties in that fortress, not to mention more than 50%, are less than 10%. In the past three months, they have died in total 671 people! On average, only 7 people die every day!"

"But we will kill more than 10,000 people every day! Just count as 10,000 people, for every one we kill an untrustworthy person, 1,428 people will die!"

"Sir, if we continue like this, we can't even get the fortress even if we fill in 10 million people!"

Hilbert's math was good, and he immediately calculated the exchange ratio between the enemy and us. Finally, he knelt on one knee and shouted in pain: "Sir, please send the Paladins!"

What?

Obalch was shocked when he heard Hilbert's words!

"They only died 671 people, and they only died seven a day on average. We die ten thousand a day, this..."

How is this possible?!

Is this exchange really ugly?

Although there are countless believers in the Holy See of Light and the number of troops recruited is also unlimited, it cannot withstand such consumption, right?

Tens of millions of people will die if they take down a fortress with tens of thousands of troops. What if there are more such fortresses?

Is the human sea tactics of the Holy See still effective?

Thinking of this, Obalge couldn't help but shivered, and his confidence was shaken violently!

Of course, Obalge also had a hint of doubt about the death data of only 671 defenders in that fortress. It is impossible for the opponent to die so many people, right? If the opponent does not die with three or five thousand people, how can this war be fought?

But through his observations on the front line, the letters sent by the opponent and the data counted by various parties, Hilbert came to a reasonable conclusion: the number of casualties in the fortress shall not exceed 10%!

The deaths and injuries of millions of people on our side only result in less than 10% of the other side's casualties.

Faced with this ironic fact, Archbishop Obalch was silent and finally began to consider: Should we use the Paladins?

In fact, there is another plan, which is to take a detour, avoid the fortress, take more than a thousand miles, take other roads, and attack the Kingdom of Adude... It only takes two more months.

However, a small fortress stopped millions of the Legion of Light. When this matter spread, others would probably laugh out loud, and the Holy See of Light could not lose that face!

In addition, if this fortress is not broken, future military operations will still be greatly affected and constrained. If the nails are not pulled out, the rear will be unstable. Eliminating all the unbeliever and the rebels of the gods will become a big talk, making everyone laugh at them!

Therefore, no matter what, the fortress blocking in front must be completely removed!

Thinking of this, Obalge finally spoke:
Chapter completed!
