C173 Even If There Are 100000 Pigs

Hilbert did not participate in the war directly. As the Minister of Magic, he was still in the capital, Brandenburg. Therefore, this matter was quickly sent to Falz III's hands.

The former wanted to say something good for Wayne in front of the king, but Wayne did not even know who the enemy he faced was.

So he could only use euphemistic words to describe the entire battle when reporting to the king.

"Your majesty, during the attack on Fort Lerge in the direction of Aldran, our troops fought very stubbornly, but in the end, they were still defeated. Almost a hundred thousand people were wiped out. Stark and Leonard tried their best to resist, but they were unfortunately captured. Only Wayne did his best to escape from the battlefield."

Even Hilbert himself couldn't stand it anymore. He really could not accurately describe the truth and make this battle seem like a glorious failure at the same time.

His efforts obviously didn't have any effect. Because Falz III caught the main point in an instant.

"A hundred thousand people were wiped out? Two Titled Devil Instructor warriors were captured? How is this possible?"

Falz III sat there with a solemn expression. His reaction was exactly the same as when Hilbert first heard about this incident. He slammed the table hard.

"Even if there are a hundred thousand pigs, those few Aldran can't catch all of them!"

Hilbert took half a step back. His bald head reflected the light of the magic lamp. "Your majesty, this is indeed the information I got from Sir Wayne. Furthermore, Sir Stark and Sir Leonard's communication cannot be connected."

Falz III sat quietly on the spot. He lowered his head and looked at the large flat European map in front of him. On it, cards of various colors symbolized the forces of both sides of the war were piled together. It formed a line that extended from the border of Helvedia Federation all the way to the northern coast of Aldran, twisting and turning for more than 600 kilometers. There were also large red arrowheads drawn on the map, indicating the planned attack plan before the operation.

Up until now, the direction of the war was completely in line with Falz III's expectations.

The operation to break through from the central area of the Aldran was unexpectedly successful. Now, the army and fleet of Westfalen had surrounded the largest city in the northern region of Aldran, Amsterdam. What was even more exciting was the 200 plus Great Mage trapped in the city. They were the backbone of the army of Aldran.

The attack in the south was also going smoothly. Under the joint push of Apostle of God, Roentgen, and Sage Analysis, the people of the Gaul had no way to stop them. One line of defense after another was easily broken through. This was simply a wild celebration. Under such speed, within half a month, the flag of Westfalen would appear in the center of Isle of France without any suspense. Even the most optimistic general did not expect this to happen.

However, the only thing that did not seem to be going well was the small setback that the troops that attacked Fort Lerge encountered.

This made Falz III feel a little disappointed.

After a while, he waved his hand and called for a messenger.

"Ask the intelligence minister to come."

The king's calm voice did not contain any emotions. The messenger left with an order.

About 15 minutes later, another person appeared in front of the young king. The intelligence minister looked a little older than Hilbert. He was dressed appropriately and held a scroll in his hand.

"Your Majesty?"

Falz III looked up at him.

"Do you know what happened in Fort Lerge four hours ago?"

The intelligence officer stood beside Hilbert and wiped the sweat off his face with his sleeve. "Yes, Your Majesty. I got the news."

"Is there anything you can tell me?"

"Yes, Your Majesty." He opened the parchment in his hand and said, "Our intelligence personnel tried to hear the communication between the commanders of Aldran and Brucedahl in Fort Lerge. Although we only heard a part of it, we are certain that... The people of Aldran have sent reinforcements to Fort Lerge. "

The intelligence minister placed another orange badge representing the combat units of Aldran on Falz III's war sandbox. This orange badge was very big, and it even overshadowed the legion corps that was originally there. It symbolized that this unit was higher than a legion corps. It was second only to an entire legion corps. The gathering group.

"And as far as I know, the combat strength of this group should not be underestimated. Because its level of confidentiality should be very high, we were almost unable to obtain any information regarding it before the war, this is my dereliction of duty "

The intelligence minister paused for a moment and took a deep breath.

"It seems to be called 'Rico Group' in the Aldran's battle command link."

A full legion corps in Aldran should be around fifty thousand people, and a group could have more than fifty thousand people. During peacetime, half of the legion corps would be formed, but there would still be seventy to eighty thousand people.1

As for the 'Rico Group', which had brought a total of one hundred thousand people and three Titled Devil Instructor warriors great trouble to the Westfalen, its number had just changed from one to four and a dragon.

Riko wanted to get to the battlefield as soon as possible, so she did not leave with Meiko and the others.

Without the help of her, the speed of the Tolstoy was much slower. It slowly carried Meiko, Loli Merlin and Undead Lady along the way and finally flew over.

By the time they arrived, Riko had already ended the battle. So the first thing Loli Merlin discovered was not the eye-catching fortress with several giant turrets, but a circle of military tents outside the Fort Lerge. It was also a huge camp built with tents brought by the captives.

Black Haired Great Devil Instructor flew over the sky of the fortress in shock, not knowing what had happened, "Looks like Rikku is really powerful."
