Section 137 Information

From this point of view, perhaps Tsengchi gave him the power of "incomplete ascension" because of this. With this, the conditions provided by the terror now are completely unattractive to Ashu Rufate.

At this time, the siege battle had completely subsided. The dead teeth's corpses no longer moved and struggled. The claws that had originally violently destroyed everything were weakly corroded between a pile of gravel and garbage. Within the effective range of the catapult, there were no soldiers who performed the siege mission. The tasks of a small number of soldiers on the front line had been turned into surveillance.

However, although they were defeated, and after yesterday's march, combat and last night's chaos, the morale of Ashurufate's army has not decreased. They have achieved such a great victory, and have even captured most of the Blood Fortress, which has made the enemy occupy the last position to resist. Many people believe that victory is near. The defeat of the siege is just a small local defeat in the background of the big victory - it is very hateful, but it does not affect the overall situation.

In fact, it is also a blessing for the Chaos Legion's strong physical fitness that gives them enough physical strength to persevere until now. If it were Groney's army, the entire army would have lost its combat ability due to fatigue. If that were the case, even if Eshu Rufate was urgent, he would have to choose to take a day off before trying to attack the city.

However, this is the idea of ​​the soldiers at the bottom. The senior management, especially Ashu Rufate, is far less optimistic.

The Chaos Legion had naturally strong combat power, but their siege ability was very limited. Not to mention anything else, the attack ability they showed in Groney was really lacking. As mentioned earlier, the Chaos Legion had used traitors to successfully conquer the White Fort and used raids to kill the former King Groney. But even with such an advantage, they still failed to break through the city of Sarek, giving the other party a chance to breathe and eventually led to defeat.

The reason for this is not that Chaos talent is not suitable for siege. In Ashrufate's view, the key is that Chaos believers lack experience and related equipment. It's not their fault - after all, Chaos warriors rarely encounter opportunities to siege the city during their growth. In fact, as mentioned earlier, there are only a few buildings in the entire Chaos Realm that can be called "castles". It is very remarkable to attack a camp.

In contrast, there are castle cities everywhere, and war is basically inseparable from the seven central countries that siege and defend the city. Such experience is much richer. The theory of urban offensive and defense is rich - anyone who learns military tactics cannot understand the art of siege and defend the city. There are special craftsmen in the army responsible for making siege equipment, and the army has a full understanding of siege.

Having said that, even if the Central Seven Kingdoms with rich experience and invented many siege equipment and soldiers are accustomed to attacking, siege battles are still considered difficult. It takes three or five months to attack a city and it is considered very fast, and siege battles last for one or two years and are common.

There is no doubt that Xingke (if she was the commander of the defender), he planned to do this. He defended for three or five months. In theory, there was no problem. Although there were not many remaining soldiers in the Blood Fortress at this time, it was simply not worth mentioning compared to the troops possessed by Ash Rufate, the siege battle never depends on the number of people. Obviously, no matter how many people there are in the siege, they cannot fly to the city - although magic can take people, the number is too limited - unless it is the legendary method of siegeing the city into a slope.

Of course, the so-called corpse-building and siege are just legendary - most of them are from the imagination of those who know nothing about war. Because soil and stone are obviously better choices than human corpses that can be burned and corroded.

However, Xingke might be able to defend for a few months, but Ashu Rufate could not afford to delay for a few months. As mentioned earlier, his army did not have so many supplies at all. He did not have the logistics and supplies troops commonly founded in the southern army; he did not collect the supplies stations and established along the march route; he did not have any battlefield warehouses or anything. He actually summoned a large army, and then collected all the available food along the way, and rushed to the city of the Blood Fortress. After the food and grass that the soldiers carried with them had no supplies.

Of course, the previous war allowed him to kill many terrorist believers, and the bodies were piled up like mountains. The Chaos Warriors would not mind eating corpses. This would give Ash Rufate a little more time - but no matter what, he could not hold on for several months in the Blood Fortress.

And as long as he does not conquer the final central castle, it undoubtedly means that he has not completed the tasks given by the gods. This consequence...

Ashu Rufate didn't think the consequences would be very minor.

Almost all the senior management, including Gande, saw this, but they didn't say it explicitly. In the original combat plan, as long as they could defeat the Blood Tooth Lord, they could guarantee to conquer the Blood Fortress. Although the Blood Fortress is a strong city, if there are not enough defenders on the castle, it is actually easy to deal with.

But no one expected that after Lord Blood Tooth was exiled, there was a Chaos Lord in the Blood Fortress who could control the overall situation. No one expected that the Chaos Lord had already made the decision to give up the outside and defend the central castle. No one expected that the Chaos Lord had such ability to kill giant beasts in seconds.

A battle that was originally considered to be a devastating battle now seems to turn into a long confrontation. No one wants to see this situation.

Of course, for Ashu Rufate, what's worse is that his opponent is Xingke.

Is this intentional terror or the "bride of terror" itself the purpose. But no matter what, Ashu Rufate felt that this matter was restricted. Because he could not even order to attack the city at all costs now. Because in this way, Xingke had a great chance of being killed in battle. By then, even the blood fortress he conquered, his battle along the way would become meaningless. In addition to obtaining an "incomplete ascension" that was not very valuable to him (Ahu Rufate was a black magician, which itself meant that he had life far beyond the scope of normal people), and the "drunk blood" that could be found everywhere in chaos, he was equivalent to a waste of time - serving the gods of Chaos for free.

He must first figure out what happened to Xingke.

Most of the day passed like this. When dusk came, Ashu Rufate's scout captain, Gande, finally brought him good news.

In a search and pursuit battle to chase the north, Gander captured a large number of terrorist believers. This was actually much easier than everyone expected. Those believers who were determined to sacrifice their souls to the Blood God had died in the previous war, and the rest were humans with less religious beliefs, or who were rational and emotionally normal. In this battle without any hope, they made the choice to surrender.

As for the senior officers - most of the senior officers died in the previous battles, this is also a feature of the terror-torture believers. Ashu Rufate believes that it is unlikely to be able to catch senior officers, and he can only hope to be lucky enough to catch those who have a low status but understand the inside story.

For this, Ashu Rufate also specially conveyed the latest order to Gander: to do everything possible to catch the living.

Maybe it was luck, maybe it was the favor of the gods, or maybe Gande was indeed a very capable person. At midnight, Gande brought a special prisoner to Ash Rufate. Yes, a special prisoner - actually a female Chaos Warrior. Moreover, it was not the kind of woman who was big and thick, and had no difference from a man except for her lower body (there are many of these women among the terror believers), but a woman who looked quite graceful and beautiful. If she hadn't been wearing the Chaos Armor with the symbol of terror, she wouldn't have recognized that this was a Chaos Warrior who believed in terror.
