Chapter 1270 (2/2)

After several fruitless fights, the General Staff had for on

The intention of their military operation was, in a way, the same as His Majesty's, which was to take more populated cities and have theevery effort to stop the First Arees away

To seize men's territories as fast as they could, the demons normally used the Fortress-like Monstrous Beast to circle out a small Red Mist zone to enable their troops s, and then attack the city before the Red Mist completely spread out

By the tidonificantly slower This indicated that as their territories expanded, the dee the cities they had taken

It was actually pretty easy to understand why it had happened

It took tie encampments As the territories expanded, the demons' troops were further scattered Another key factor was that the demons did not really need to send their main force to attack humans With sufficient Red Mist, they just needed to dispatch a unit to destroy one unit of the First Are army

Given that, after the dedom of Everwinter, there were fewer attacks from them Perhaps, the demons did not necessarily reduce their total force However, as the Red Mist had expanded significantly and stretched away for several hundred kilometers, it was al the force

This was exactly what Iron Axe had observed

”Sir, all the 'supplies' shi+pped from Neverwinter have arrived at the Tusk City,” a soldier ran up to the watchtower and reported

”Finally!” Iron Axe exclaimed in exciteo take a look”

They thus walked out of the castle and saw several hundred iron barrels at a clearing in front of the city gate These barrels were round, about half as tall as a le crack on the surface

”Sir, what are they?” Brian asked as he studied the barrels up and down, looking utterly confused They did not look like regular containers since there were no handles They did not look like weapons either Numerous battles had told him that fixed explosives were far less powerful than cannons It was a little too unrealistic to use these barrels to fight the demons off

Brian pushed the barrels but they did not budge at all Apparently, these barrels were filled with so nobody would like to spend ti hundreds of heavy iron barrels to the front unless they were extremely important

”This is His Majesty's new invention You were still in the Southern His Majesty expand his territory when they were being tested, so naturally you don't know,” Iron Axe replied sly ” These barrels will be the key to this battle If they really work as perfectly as they did in the test, ould then be able to catch the deuard even in a mobile warfare!”
