Chapter 857 252 Kael's Domain: The Beginning of the War - The Fall of Gransham Territory (10K)_4
Imre shook his head and said, "Although the probability of repelling them is extremely small, it is not impossible... You must know that your and my loved ones are all in this town.
We have no choice! If we let them drive straight in like this, everything we value will become their wanton trampled plaything.
Time is too short, the enemy is aggressive, no one is stopping them, they won't give them a chance to escape at all...
The tens of thousands of people in Gransham City don't have the time to escape safely, we can only choose to fight them to the death, this is the only option!"
"A composite standing battle regiment, which should be relatively standard 2000 non-professional types of robust soldiers along with 1000+ cavalry and 1000+ war priests.
Among this group of War Priests, I often interact with them, belonging to a combat profession that possesses many Divine Arts abilities and even a small portion of spell-casting capabilities.
To be honest, if the leader is really Marquis Gransham, Imre... prepare yourself mentally, you'll have to find a way to escape their pursuit first thing."
Hearing this, Imre also felt a headache for a moment.
No one understands better than the Silver Guard Army what the current situation means.
The Silver Guard Army often sweeps out the largest groups of monsters in high-level dungeons, relying on what?
It's not just their own strength, but more on knowing the enemy while being unknown, the Silver Guard Army can obtain intelligence from dungeons in advance with a complete stance, and continuously expand their battle results using the advantage of information asymmetry.
Even those more powerful monsters, when facing the Silver Guard Army who hold ample information, can win out of weakness because of advanced planning.
But…
The current situation is completely different.
"Damn... what exactly is Father doing?"
Imre slammed his fist heavily on the city wall, his powerful strength directly creating a small indent in the corner of the wall.
His face was full of anxiety.
Because he knows, no one understands the situation of their own territory better than his father.
All the defensive forces of Gransham Territory, to the owner of the territory, are completely undefended, related situations, no one knows them better than him.
For a long time, in the Silver Guard Army, he was used to fighting relying on intelligence advantages, now unexpectedly becoming the one being wrapped by intelligence.
"Imre, you didn't leave what the commander handed you in the headquarters, did you?"
After pondering for a moment, a member of the Silver Guard Army still couldn't help but ask.
Imre's pupils narrowed slightly, almost immediately refuting: "No, the Dawn Star can't be used here!"
"Imre!"
That Silver Guard Army member loudly said: "Don't forget, compared to Dawn Star, Gransham Territory occupies the most fertile area in the north.
If you hand over Gransham Territory to others, losing the defense of this northern fortress, the surrounding areas will be completely open to the Northern Plains.
Those barbarians on the Northern Plains will not be taken seriously by the Holy Crusaders of Briania, they will simply crush over the corpses of the barbarians without mercy.
Tribes cannot stop them, the Crusaders driving straight in will pierce through the entire plains like a spear stabbing into the northern heart of the Federation!
This will make the entire north suffer in continuous bleeding, further affecting the strategic layout of the northern Federation, compared to these, the sequelae brought by Dawn Star are insignificant!"
Dawn Star, is an offshoot of the Federation Star project.
Facing the crisis of a significant downturn in the number of top middle-generation strong who face the crisis of dwindling numbers, the Bell Federation realizes that if there is no way to tide over the development period of the younger generation within these fifty years, they may face the situation of lacking successors.
Thus, the Federation decides to go all out to maintain the existing deterrence of the Federation, talent is not enough, so using external force to deal with it.
Dawn Star is just the product that emerged in recent years.
If you had to compare... this thing is somewhat similar to the legendary weapon used by the Goblin Empire to slaughter gods back in the day, the End Bomb.
Just that compared to the instant explosive damage of the End Bomb, Dawn Star's destructive power is somewhat lacking, but…
The vast range of high heat pollution released by it is so harmful that it even surpasses the Alchemy Storm that once ravaged the land of Orean.
Fortunately, the pollution produced after Dawn Star exploded, when covered by the explosion of the second Dawn Star, can dramatically decay, eventually reducing the harm to a barely acceptable level.
So in extreme cases, detonating Dawn Star in a short time, to buy time for Gransham City to hold on, may not be an inappropriate solution.
What's more deadly is…
He has no choice.
"If it really comes to this, someone needs to think of a way to carve a bloody path from the Crusaders to send the Dawn Star to the belly of the Crusaders, I will lead the charge."
Imre gritted his teeth, finally making a decision.
He once swore under the flag of the Silver Guard Army "to protect the land of the Bell Federation and our compatriots, regardless of the sacrifice", now, it is time for him to fulfill that promise.
However, surprisingly, this proposal was laughed off and rejected by several of his friends.
