Ark: The Cycle of Light and Darkness

In a sense, Levi's judgment was not wrong.

The army that defeated Tresisi's army came with great force, almost trying to pacify his army in one go, and then take advantage of the situation to attack the royal court.

The seemingly reckless plan actually contained a trap that Levi had to step on, which was the whereabouts of the Fourth Army: the army had been defeated, and as the most elite force in Kazdaele, the Fourth Army needed to stand up no matter what. In front, prevent the army that appeared out of nowhere from advancing further.

The key to this gamble is whether it can directly defeat the reinforcements of the Fourth Army.

If this can be done, then the Royal Court will be opened wide under the front of this army. Even if there is still the Seventh Army guarding the capital of the Royal Court, it will also win a lot of support for Mecklenburg. Land, people and most importantly, breathing room.

On the contrary, if it fails, then the supplies of this army will definitely be stretched in the gradually lengthening battle. Once there is a problem with the supply line, this seemingly huge army will eventually become a bloated burden.

So, everything depends on how Levi should fight this battle.

【Is the situation on the frontline... already so bad? 】

In the more than a day since the deployment of military forces, urgent military information from the front line has been sent seven times.

Tresis still has some military talent. Since the army retreated, he has insisted on digging deep trenches and using the border fortifications to tenaciously resist waves of attacks. So far, he has repelled more than 20 times. exploratory attack.

But the people on the other side seemed to be charging into the meat grinder-like battlefield for free, causing even the elite First Legion to suffer heavy casualties.

A rough estimate shows that the combined military strength of the opponent is probably 100,000. This number, even with the addition of the fourth and seventh legions guarding the royal court, is not enough.

Who is it that has such courage and military power to fight this war?

Levi frowned - this action has almost become a habit in the past two days: [What kind of method did the other party use to mobilize their troops so quickly?】

【Wait...Boy Levi, do you know the origin of this army? 】The old general who was also at the conference table was surprised when he heard the words, and looked at Levi in ​​disbelief.

【Warlords from various places attack each other on the surface, but internally they regard us as common enemies. ]

Levi replied calmly: [Ten years... Never once have we been able to annihilate so many effective forces and provide such a good opportunity to attack Mecklenburg - but at the same time, this is also a crisis for those guys.】

【you mean……】

【Coalition forces - I can't guess who has the ability to command this army, but there is no doubt that this is a coalition of warlords. 】

Levi sighed: 【The reason why the lips are dead and the teeth are cold... Some people obviously understand better - Halstein cannot raise this army, and the severely damaged Mecklenburg cannot raise it... But, You can make up most of Kazdaele. 】

The old general’s expression changed.

【If this is the case, we must invest more troops, even to support Tracys……】The white-haired general slapped the table: [There is no room for loss on the front line, otherwise the royal court will be in danger!】

【In this case, you are playing into the opponent's hands. ]

Shaking his head to stop the old general's impulsive behavior, Levi said calmly: [The fiercer the offensive on the front line, the more it shows the precision of the opponent's military use. This is not reckless, it is forcing us to reinforce so that he can make his next plan.】

【What’s next? Are you talking about surprise tactics? ]

The old general who calmed down looked at Levi with a puzzled look on his face: [However, our front line is only so long in total. Whether it is land or water, it is impossible. As for the aircraft... the target is too obvious and cannot be hidden, and Even if you really cross the front line, you still have to face the royal court with strong walls and high walls. This is not……】

【It's hard to say, because I'm not sure how many people were involved in the siege. ]

Levi's hand suddenly circled around the strategic map, and then drew a long offensive line: [The key question is-here!】

——————Dividing line——————

【Sir, it's ready. ]

Sakaz, who was guarding the door, bowed slightly, then opened the tent and let the people inside come out.

What came out was Li Boli wearing the traditional costume of Yan Kingdom.

The surrounding Sakaz stood up in awe almost the moment they saw this Li Boli - Li Boli, who was obviously from the Yan Kingdom, made these rebellious soldiers respect him so much. This was despite the fact that they were basically xenophobic. Sakaz, persistence is a miracle.

Li Boli, who was called"Sir", didn't pay much attention to the attitudes of the people around him, but stretched out his hand to take the information handed over by the Sakaz soldiers around him.

【Interesting...kind of interesting. 】

While looking at the information, he was amazed

【Coming to the front line alone...it seems that he has seen through my plan. ]

He was not worried about the failure of the arrangement at all. This Li Boli was just reading with great interest the top-secret information that the coalition spies had spent several lives to bring.

【However, this alone is not enough - Regulus Harvey, you know very well that Tracys cannot trust you. ]

Turning his gaze to the sand table not far away, young Li Boli narrowed his eyes. It was as if he saw a chess piece, slowly moving from the position marked"King's Court" to the front line where the two sides are now facing off.

Will this chess piece be the key to breaking the game?

Or is this chess piece the last counterattack before the opponent's destruction?
