Warhammer: Return of the Dragon

"Laton..."

When the commander called his name, the leading soldier performed a military salute in an impeccable mechanical manner. The standard of the military salute was so high that even the stipulators of military salutes could not find any flaws in Raton's posture.

Rodon, whose face was covered by a helmet, only showed a pair of gray eyes. When meeting important officials, his mood was neither surprised nor happy, like a rune golem waiting for orders.

"My subordinates are here. Under the orders of the champion warrior Masno, the Anaheim Third Corps will fully obey your command, Lord Bruni."

The Third Anaheim Corps... Hearing this number, Bruce took a special look at the soldiers behind Raton.

He didn't know much about the situation in Anaheim and only learned some relevant information from conversations with Masnow.

The champion warriors have a pessimistic attitude towards the slave army and believe that it is a product of extraordinary times.

After ending the affairs in the Badlands and Ulthuan, Masnow is ready to disband the Ghulam Legion and allow all participants to return to normal society.

The actual situation in recent years has shown that a group of human soldiers living in normal society and receiving professional training are far more useful than slaves destined for war.

The actual situation was somewhat beyond Bruni's expectation. A legion with a name order was not even equipped with a flag.

This is unprecedented in any country, and it happened in Caledo, which has a strong military tradition. I really don’t know what the meaning of this plan is.

The high-level decision had nothing to do with what happened in the ruins of Morukan. Bruni nodded and said he understood. His old friend hoped that these soldiers would leave the swamp alive as much as possible.

The desire to live determines the fate of the slave army.

"What impact will your arrival have on the ruins of Morukan?"

The classic question, although old, is still valid. Bruni needs to know whether there is still some humanity in the soldiers led by Raton.

Raton bowed his head and said, "The Third Corps is good at attacking fortifications, specializing in cutting meat on the front line and covering heavy firepower. The orders you give will determine the impact we can have."

There is some subjective awareness, but not much...

"Well, let the senior officers of the Third Corps come in and convene a battle plan immediately."

"Yes."

After a while, with the arrival of Yiga, who was filled with the smell of beastmen or the decay of the swamp, the battle for the ruins, which was not a fierce battle, began.

Yiga, whose armor had a few more scratches, coldly took out a green stone no bigger than a thumb from the magic seal bag. The irregular shape exuded an alluring light. Just one look at it seemed to make his soul sink deep into it. Inside.

"The dimension stone, I speculate, was caused by the meteor shower not long ago, causing a piece of dimension stone to fall in the ruins of Morukan. The beastmen usually use giant dimension stones to erect the Ten Thousand Demon Rocks as a symbolic totem of evil and ugliness.

Some beastman tribes seemed to be responding to Malagor's call, pouring into the swamp from three directions, northeast and south. The specific number is unknown, but based on the reconnaissance conducted by the dwarf helicopter five days ago, there are at least 30,000 beasts entrenched near the Ten Thousand Demon Rocks. "

Bruni really didn't know much about the beastmen. He had been stationed at Caledor Rest for a long time in Ulthuan, observing the discussions with Assanil, and used Etain as his imaginary enemy.

From Yiga's tone, it seemed that the human officers were quite familiar with the beastmen, and professional matters were left to professionals for analysis. This was something Bruni learned in the shelter.

The Dragon Prince nodded slightly to express his understanding. Now that the leader of the Marine Corps has finished speaking, it is the turn of the other main battle force to speak.

He set his sights on Raton, but the commander of the third corps also maintained a similar attitude, waiting for the Dragon Prince's order.

I sighed in my heart. Even if I return to normal society, can I still be called a human being?

When attention returned to Yiga, the warpstone in the human hand caught Bruni's attention. It seemed to be very different from the warpstone that Caledor usually used to fuel the battleship engine. "Yiga, tell me a plan that you think is feasible."

The experienced Yiga was not surprised by the Dragon Prince's words. After many days of contact, he figured out that Bruni was still a type of elf who could listen to people's words.

Throwing the Warpstone in the center of the table, Yiga replaced the more evil Demon Rock with this evil object as a convenient way to explain the plan.

"The size of this dimensional stone must be quite large. According to my previous exchanges with some imperial knights, dimensional meteorites occasionally fall in the empire. The beastmen call it the will of the evil moon.

Through sacrilegious rituals involving flesh and blood, the hybrids are blessed by the Chaos Gods and become extremely difficult to handle.

Malagor Darklevy must be aware of a legion preparing to destroy the Brayherd, and in terms of military strength, the Marines and..."

Yiga glanced at his unknown compatriots. He had fought side by side with this legion, but after the war, these warriors who were not afraid of death and sacrifice would soon disappear. It is still an unsolvable mystery in the human army. .

"Third Corps, Anaheim."

After Bruni's reminder, Yiga returned to the topic, "Our military strength is enough to destroy the herd of screaming beasts head-on, but the terrain of the Morukan ruins is very complex, mostly swamps, undercurrents, hills, and trenches. The terrain has natural advantages, and Malago will definitely send cannon fodder troops to slow down our advance and wait for the desecration ceremony to be completed to launch a counterattack."

"Good analysis of your plan."

After saying so much, Yiga took out his sword and drew a straight line towards the center of the ruins starting from the square area.

"First of all, our most important goal is not to completely annihilate the beastmen. With the complexity of the Morukan ruins, this is a long-term task.

Secondly, the existence of the Demonic Rock allows Malago to summon a swarm of beasts to assemble. As long as this plan is shattered, troops will be sent to surround the exit outside the ruins of Morukan.

The hybrids were accustomed to fighting, so they would definitely fall into cannibalism when they lacked food. All they had to do was wait for a period of time, and use a basic unit of a hundred people to close in and wipe out the remaining beastman tribe. "

Bruni was very interested and kept nodding after listening to Yiga's words. This plan was good, but the core problem was how to destroy the dimension stone.

The magical power of Malago Darkness is not weak. The mage who accompanied the army in heaven tried to locate it many times but was unable to find it. Finding a meteorite in the huge ruins is not an easy task.

Even if it is found, how to destroy it?
Obviously Yiga also knew the loopholes in the plan. He took back his sword and made a ferocious smile.

"The key to the plan is to find the location of the dimension stone. As the proposer, I naturally have the obligation to take the lead and go deep into the ruins to search for it. But whether to adopt it or not depends on your idea, sir."

The smallest sacrifice is required to obtain the greatest results, but the sacrifice involved is not small. When searching surrounded by tens of thousands of wild beasts, the worst result is to be torn into pieces by a group of hungry mouths.

But Bruni still agreed to the plan. The Dragon Prince would not appear in person. In fact, the person in charge of paying off the ruins of Morukan was only a false position, used as a cover-up to deal with the Eternal Peak.

If practical leaders are willing to take such big risks, why not see the results.

Even if the plan to destroy the Magic Rock failed, the Dragon Prince was still confident that he would behead Malago Dark Recruitment as a talent review.

It would be even better if it succeeded, proving that Yiga was capable of leading this legion, and he could rest assured that he would take care of it and rush to the battlefield of Bafeng Mountain.

"You will receive my full authorization, but the price of failure should also be understood."

There was a smile in Yiga's eyes, and this was the best result.

"Of course, it's just me dying or becoming a hero." (End of Chapter)
