Chapter 347: Chapter 75 Intentional Calculation Unintended_1

"On the Silk Continent, the original intention of Illusion Magic was just that," Ning Yu said with a radiant smile. "Intimidation, a strong power of intimidation."

Avril pouted.

"Creating an actual human form is a luxury. In fact, we only need to carry on the embryonic form within the ranks to intimidate the enemy, and that would already be sufficient," said the Fairy Dragon excitedly.

"Indeed, Illusion Magic can play a significant role, I must admit that," Liu Zhenhan nodded his head, "So, what’s your plan?"

"Let’s not focus on the strategic issues at the moment. Let’s take a look at the environment surrounding the Feilengcui first," the Fairy Dragon said, taking a piece of bread and laying it flat on the table. "This represents the bamboo forest of Feilengcui. The idea of such lush bamboo forest growing on the red soil is truly beyond my comprehension. I have checked the current boundaries of the bamboo forest, do you know how far it has expanded?"

"I’ll have to ask Gude about that." Liu Zhenhan turned his gaze towards General Pan.

"I do not know. The bamboo forest is still sprouting units every day, expanding on a daily basis," Gude raised his hand and said.

"Being a noble lord, the highest military commander of the territory, and a learned sacrifice ceremony! You are so unfamiliar with the geographic situation around your territory? I’m sad for you. Such a great place with excellent scenery was taken by you!" The Fairy Dragon furiously criticized Liu Zhenhan.

"What does the bamboo forest have to do with the lord?" Liu Zhenhan was puzzled, "Do you want to be beaten?"

"The Donau Wasteland is the most suitable terrain for cavalry charges and large-scale battles. If the military force is too small and the field is vast, it lacks space for maneuvering and detours, and due to the lack of terrain support, the battle will be exceptionally tough. Since ancient times, battles won with fewer soldiers always had the upper hand in these two points," the Fairy Dragon pointed outside the cave and said, "The human slave capture team came prepared. They have more than ten times our forces. If we now choose to sit back and wait for reinforcements, I don’t know if you’ve calculated the height of Feilengcui. I’ve calculated it. It’s 52 blades in height. With such a height, it can be compared to a medium-sized castle. However, a bamboo forest covering an area of 400 acres can provide the enemy with the materials to make siege machinery. These are all unfavorable factors that a military commander must consider."

"Respectfully, Fairy Dragon, don’t think that Feilengcui is undefended. I have considered this point long ago. That’s why I have had the slaves rework the Red Earth Highland recently. The hill is practically vertical now, and all the cave entrances have been widened and deepened. If I have time, I even plan to dig a secret tunnel to the river," Gortani proudly stated.

The Swan knight recently ordered all the slaves to rework the Red Earth Highland. Given its hardness, Gortani asked the slaves to shovel off the excess red soil and rework the entire hill’s exterior into a sleeping beauty shape. At the time, she had mentioned to Helen that next year she would plant Thousand-leaf Nymphaea on the head of this sleeping beauty. Long vines falling down would become the hair of the sleeping beauty. If she could set up a water tower on top of the hill, the continuous, waterfall-like gush of water would keep washing the hair of the sleeping beauty, making Feilengcui even more beautiful.

Everyone thought that the Swan knight did this simply out of the Swan Clan’s inherent love for aesthetics. No one imagined the strategic reason behind Gortani’s actions.

"No wonder you flattened all the paths, leaving only one stairway-like passage. So that’s why," Liu Zhenhan suddenly understood.

"As soon as there’s a war, there’s only one way up and down Feilengcui. No matter who attacks, they have to climb up this stairway. And inside, I’ve connected several caves with bamboo stairs from top to bottom. If one level can’t withstand the defense, it can retreat to the upper level," Gortani courteously nodded her head, unable to hide the pride on her face.

"What’s the purpose of placing a series of small stone warrior statues, which you had the slaves dig up from the wasteland, along the edge of that stairway?" Avril rubbed her hands and asked after exhaling on them.

"Aesthetics," Gortani lightly sniffed. "This place has picturesque scenery after all, and a bare passage would be visually displeasing. With these stone warrior statues, it at least looks better."

"This is identical to my thoughts when I built Razor Mountain," the Fairy Dragon laughed, "I greatly appreciate Miss Gortani’s innovative idea of combining aesthetics with a military fortress. But now I have a better suggestion to have a good fight with the humans."

"What’s the idea?" Vieri couldn’t wait to ask. Although the bear-man couldn’t think as quickly as the Swan, he at least had some military knowledge.

"This time the human slave capture team has hired Heavy Scythe-wielders and Mages. Ignoring the powerful Mages for now, the Heavy Scythe-wielders, known as one of the strongest infantry on the continent, are our militia’s rivals with their full body armor and triple layer iron tower shields. The towering figures of the Pompei are no less than the Viking Pirates and the Berserkers of Tel Aviv. Once they ensnare us on the battlefield, the fate of Feilengcui would be in question," As the Fairy Dragon spoke, many people frowned.
