Magic Tower Starry Sky

As a minister of an empire, of course, there is no extra time to wait for a news that is not very important in their eyes. It was never in their expectation that they would dispatch the First Magic Guidance Brigade and fail.

After the order was signed, the Minister of Military Affairs returned to his office. Maintaining a large elite army has complex and complicated affairs. The decisions on these matters will ultimately be concentrated on him, so there will be no idle opportunities at all.

It has to be like a dog, which is why the emperor appointed them ministers. If it is done too easily and cannot share the emperor's worries, it means that he is incompetent and will be replaced sooner or later. There are not a few capable people in the empire who are jealous of power.

And in the evening, when the day's work was about to end, the task that he was about to throw into the corner of his memory only sent back a message:

The First Magical Battalion was defeated, and the Cid appeared in the city of Basra.

... "What's going on here." The Minister of Military Affairs tapped his finger on the table lightly, slowly and loudly, and glared angrily at the person in front of him. Although the young officer who came to report was not frightened. But it can be seen from the panic in their eyes that they are also extremely disturbed by such an unexpected result.

Advancing along the Abaizhi line, the Sid did not appear in the next stop of Abadan City, Hailis City, but appeared in the city of Basra, which can only be reached after seven days by ordinary airships. This represents a terrible meaning, that is, the speed of the opponent's movement is beyond one's imagination.

Since the other party has a wider range of movement, there are more places to choose from. Under such a premise, if you want to intercept the opponent, you can only spend more manpower and material resources. And the magic guide brigade sent out by the first branch can be said to be abolished in this operation.

Legion-level teleportation magic circle, this is an advanced magic device that is only installed in the capital. Transmitting magic circles in other cities in the empire can only be used as a legion-level receiving end. Although it is also possible to carry out teleportation operations, it can only be used for small-scale individual teleportation.

This is not due to the strong strength of the empire, which can only set up a legion-level teleportation magic circle, it is purely for the safety of the capital. If someone with malicious intentions sends a large number of troops into the heart of the capital, how will they be prepared?

You must know that with this level of magic circle, it is not a problem to send one hundred thousand troops at a time, as long as you can afford the cost of activation. And the 100,000 rebel forces entered the capital at one go, and even if they could hold it from falling, they would inevitably cause a large number of casualties. Instead of guarding against this kind of thing from happening, it is better to deprive other places of the possibility of legion level transfer from the beginning.

However, the first magic brigade's charged blow was empty, although the ordinary teleportation magic circle could also be used to recall the personnel. But the number of thousands of people, if you want to come back, it will take at least ten days. This is limited by the long-distance teleportation magic circle itself.

It is necessary to confirm whether the teleportation destination exists, whether there are any security concerns, and whether there are any magic traps that interfere with the space. After the teleportation is turned on, can people be delivered to the destination safely, instead of being delivered in "blocks" step by step! More importantly, long-distance teleportation magic cannot become a channel for creatures from other realms to invade the Lost Land.

All of this happened during the study of teleportation magic. To prevent these disasters from happening again, the long-distance transmission magic circle has been continuously improved to what it is today. Security is taken care of, it is inevitable that there will be some inconvenience in use, and it will take a little longer for a transmission, which is still acceptable to people.

It's like taking a plane at an airport on Earth, and you have to go through a boarding pass and security check, and you have to go through customs when you leave the country. I have never seen anyone protesting, complaining that if taking a plane is like taking a taxi, it will be fine if you wave your hand on the side of the road, or you can get a pick-up with just a tap of your mobile phone.

These are the reasons why the first magic guide group is unlikely to use the local teleportation magic circle to return to the capital immediately and launch a second wave of attacks.

"Will the First Magical Battalion have time to transfer there by other means?" the Minister of Military Affairs asked.

"At this distance, there is no known airship that can reach it overnight." This made the young noble officer feel a little guilty, and then they found that an airship did it, which gave them such a headache. However, things that airships can't do, and legion-level teleportation can't be done in non-capital cities, basically there is no need to consider other methods.

"Order the defenders of Basra City to find a way to delay the target and buy enough time for the First Magical Battalion. Is there a high chance of success?" The Minister of Military Affairs tried to come up with other ideas. But as soon as he said it, he shook his head and felt that it was not feasible. starting point

At the same time, the young aristocratic officer also replied: "If the target doesn't know our actions, there is a possibility of success. But the movement of the First Magical Battalion is never a trivial matter. Many noble lords have sent envoys to the Military Affairs Department to inquire. , Who or where is the target of the brigade. It is difficult to hide the situation, as long as the other party gets the wind and wants to break through, I am afraid that the local garrison cannot deal with it. Besides, the number of targets is not large, which means that the action is flexible It will take seven days for the First Magic Guidance Brigade to rush to Basra City at the fastest speed, which is too long, and there may be too many changes in the process."

After all, the Gwana Empire belonged to the feudal system. According to the law, when the emperor and the army of the central government pass through the territory of other noble lords, they should obtain the consent of the lord before they can pass. Of course, most of the time, when the local lords are not strong enough to resist the regular legions in the center, they can only choose to turn a blind eye or close one eye to these troops running around on their own territory.

However, when a regular legion passed through a country noble's territory without permission, the great magician who lived in seclusion in the area was directly blasted to pieces with a strategic-level magic. It is impossible to accuse the other party of a crime.

After all, it was an era of war, and there were endless rebels, rebels, and robbers on the ground, and sometimes regular legions cameo. As long as it is considered a threat, it is not surprising that people will do anything for their own lives.

At that time, even if Midi was under the wings of the empire, the only one who could protect him was himself. No one will depend on others for their own safety. Such a naive person could not survive that era.

Therefore, as long as the person who came to inquire was not targeted, it would be difficult for the military affairs department of the empire to dismiss the worried lords with the reason of 'this is a secret operation'. Where is the need for covert action within national borders.

As for the targeted target, the oath before the action, the declaration of guilt before the crusade, all military operations should be upright and aboveboard, this is the bearing of an empire. Of course, whether the other party can hear him or not, and whether he realizes that he has become a target, these are not the people in the Ministry of Military Affairs who care. These things are just for people to see, not necessarily for the enemy to see.

Of course, the Gwana Empire also has some secret troops who can't get on the stage and specialize in dirty things, but their actions have special rules. Do not pass through cities and towns, do not use teleportation magic circles, and if necessary, do not even leave any witnesses. However, that army is the 'fourth legion' directly under the emperor, and it cannot be easily used, let alone decided by him.

Abandoning the idea of ​​continuing to use the First Magic Battalion, the Minister of Military Affairs asked, "Suggestion from the Military Library?"

Given a chance to save face, the young noble officer of course cheered up and proposed a plan discussed with his colleagues, saying: "According to the distance traveled by the Sid today, it is speculated that their next stop will be at the same location in Asia. Nagadai City on the Baizhi Line. Even if there is a slight error, the stop will be a neighboring city. As long as the garrison commander of Nagadai City is entrusted to recruit enough airships in advance, the position of the Sid can be determined. Finally, use the fastest speed to transfer the intercepting troops to the target position. This time, we will definitely be able to capture the opponent."

"Who can be sent for the second interception force?"

"The newly created First Army Corps, the Tenth Battalion can handle such tasks."

The military system of the Gwana Empire, the first to third legions are stationed in the capital, and the fourth to tenth are stationed in places. As for the three legions in the capital, apart from the second and third legions that are actually responsible for the task of defending the capital, the first legion is a legion of various natures such as special purposes, teaching, and experiments.

In the First Legion, except for the First Magical Battalion, which is an unshakable meritorious force, the numbers of the other teams are sorted according to the history of their establishment. For example, the Windtalkers of the second brigade gathered Homo sapiens other than humans and mixed them into a special brigade mainly composed of elves. In addition to the purpose of expressing cooperation to the various races within the empire, it also has the purpose of bringing the powerful of all races under its command and taking care of them nearby.

The establishment of other brigades also have their own purposes and intentions ~ www.NovelMTL.com ~ such as experimenting with new tactics or arms, and training non-commissioned officers of various arms. When the tactics and arms of the old era are facing elimination, the establishment will be cancelled, and new arms adapted to the new era and new tactical thinking will be re-established. Therefore, the Tenth Brigade of the First Legion has always been the cutting-edge experimental force of the times.

And the most recent change, just three years ago, was the key to the 'forum' created by someone.

In the past, the command of war basically relied on the decision of the commander alone, and then sent orders to the orderly. It's okay if the troops are gathered, but if it's scattered, basically they can only rely on the mid-level officers who actually command the troops at the forefront.

It is impossible for an organization like the military to fail to notice the convenience of the forum for passing messages. For this reason, small troops are assigned soldiers who are dedicated to using the forum to pass information. With them, the commander can accurately grasp the situation of each team and issue tactical orders that can cooperate with each other.

If someone knew about it, he would definitely feel emotional. The lost 'radio soldier' ​​was actually born in this way.
