Extraordinary in Reality Through Magic Games

352: Chapter 344 The allied forces advanced triumphantly, within an unreachable attack range.The eastern border of Lake is about a hundred kilometers from Keton City; the path is mostly plains, and undulating mountains only appear by the roadside as one nears Keton City.

This is also why Keton City is far from the border; there is no natural terrain to defend.

Benefiting from this, the three legions of the Allied Forces basically didn’t need to worry about ambushes for the first half of the journey.

The plains stretched as far as the eye could see with a wide field of vision; with the eyesight of High-tier Professionals, they could spot an ant crawling on the ground in the distance, let alone an ambushing legion.

The massive legions advanced slowly across the grasslands; when the mountains appeared in their sight, the three Legion Commanders ordered a thirty-minute rest on the spot.

The Soldiers carried out the order, sitting on the ground to eat the bread they carried with them, while the three Legion Commanders gathered to discuss the upcoming siege plan.

All cities on the Saul Continent had not experienced the flames of war for ten thousand years; the city walls were built with ordinary bricks, and no defensive Magic Arrays were set up inside.

Thus, although the Lake side was holding the city, they had no geographical advantage; instead, they were trapped in the narrow city, making it easy for the Allied Forces to wipe them all out at once.

The Mad Lion Legion Commander felt there was no need for too many tactics; they could just surround Keton City with their numerical advantage and then launch a general offensive.

The Grizzly Legion Commander held the opposite opinion.

The Allied Forces claimed to share honor and disgrace, but in reality, each had their own designs. Now that the war had just begun, the nations could temporarily set aside their disputes to unite against the enemy, but once Lake collapsed and it was time to divide the spoils, could everyone still live in peace?

Or to put it bluntly, the benefits were limited; if you took more, I took less. Could powerful nations restrain their greed and not plunder Kingdoms weaker than themselves?

The Grizzly Legion Commander sneered, ”We belong to three different Kingdoms and are all our respective nations’ elite legions.

Novak sent us to lead the vanguard. It looks very fair, but whether there are other schemes involved is hard to say.”

Hearing this, the other two couldn’t help but feel doubts in their hearts.

Novak’s explanation when issuing the order was that the three of them would clear the way; if they encountered fierce resistance and couldn’t advance, he would then send his own Kingdom’s elite legions to handle the tough nuts.

However, a promise is one thing; whether it is kept is another.

Who knew if Novak was tricking them, secretly planning to deplete their strength?

In fact, the three of them were truly wronging Novak.

For Novak to be recognized by all nations and hold the position of Supreme Commander, his military capability was beyond doubt; how could he not understand the principle that if the Allied Forces developed internal rifts, it would be equivalent to losing before the battle even began?

It was undeniable that Novak might have plans to seize the opportunity to annex neighboring countries after defeating Lake, but he would certainly not expose them now.

The Rose Legion Commander pondered for a moment, then looked up and asked, ”Then what do you think we should do?

Let me emphasize one point: being afraid to fight or being perfunctory will definitely not work; that would be like handing Novak a handle to use against us.”

”I know that,” the Grizzly Legion Commander said with his arms crossed over his chest. ”My point is, don’t treat the Allied Forces’ advantage as our own.”

The Mad Lion Legion Commander became interested. ”Oh?

Be more specific.”

”It’s simple. We act as if there are no reinforcements and that only our three legions are attacking Lake. We’ll formulate our battle plan based on that premise.”

”So...”

”Don’t seek to capture the city quickly; advance steadily and strike surely.”

The two nodded in agreement.

Seeing no opposition, the Grizzly Legion Commander continued, ”I brought some Magic Crystal Cannons. After surrounding Keton City, we’ll bombard it with the cannons first. Once the enemy’s morale crumbles, we’ll then storm the city.”

”I have no objection.”

”Same here.”
