194, Instantaneously, ten thousand demon soldiers were blown away.
The raging fire in the Misty Poison Swamp enraged some of the frontline demon warriors. Upon seeing the Allen army's carriages, they immediately rushed forward to attack. However, Daniel had already seen through their mindset. The Lust Tower to the south and the Envy Tower to the north each sent out five carriages. In the first round, when facing Daniel's carriage, the impulsive demons were killed by explosives.
The carriages were propelled by magical puppets and there was no one inside. With just ten horses, Daniel had replaced ten thousand demon soldiers. The tactical terror was more fearsome than the demons themselves.
Meanwhile, the burning Misty Poison Swamp was not just a wall, but also a hell on earth. For a long time, no enemy had been able to invade the swamp. Most were killed on the Jueya Mountain or in the Seven Sin Towers, and no one could have expected that the Seven Sin Tower would be captured so easily. Furthermore, no one expected that these invaders wouldn't take anything but would simply set everything on fire and destroy it all.
The Misty Poison Swamp not only had some hidden demon ambush troops but also some small-scale villages in the deeper parts.
Three hundred thousand troops? At that time, Daniel did say that to Cyclone, but how many actual forces were there? Who could accurately know? Daniel had observed and analyzed.
"How many of them are there?" When Cyclone asked this, Daniel replied with the number three hundred thousand. This number was true, but it included non-combat units and visible magical creatures. Cyclone misunderstood it as the number of soldiers.
From the very beginning, Daniel calculated all the demons and those related to demons. Because this was not just a simple war, but an annihilating battle to completely wipe out the demons. So this raging fire burned not only the enemies hidden in the Misty Poison Swamp but also the demon villages and civilians.
If we don't mention "demons", this is just a massacre of a race.
To be killed is to die, even for demons.
For example, Wrath, one of the Seven Sins. Based on data from many years, Daniel speculated that the true identity of Wrath was just a magician who played with dark magic curses. He was strong, probably the strongest magician Daniel knew. But so what? In front of Churchill, who had absolute magic resistance, Wrath was just an ordinary person without any power.
"What?!"
Another wave of five carriages came. This time, the demons learned their lesson and set fire to the explosives with arrows tipped with fire, directly burning them from a distance.
However, the carriages did not explode.
"This...what is this?!"
The carriages with flames rushed through the demons' first line of defense, and surprisingly, no one stepped forward to stop them.
It wasn't until the second line of defense that a demon mage killed the horses.
But the carriages stopped, and people actually jumped out from inside.
Divided into groups of ten, using the carriages as their base, the carriages broke through the demon's camp and set up defensive positions in deeper areas.
As the demons tried to deal with these additional enemies in their formation, the real Allen army launched a frontal assault.
But unlike before, they were not really charging to kill the enemy.
The army organized by Daniel is not a large army dominated by soldiers, but a special army dominated by magicians.
The squad sent into the enemy's camp is not meant to kill, but to locate and lure the enemy.
Out of ten people, eight are sword-bearing warriors, while the other two are magicians skilled in using shields.
The shield-bearers defend in all eight directions, while the magicians deploy their shields.
Once the enemy's position is located, powerful area magic spells rain down on the concentrated enemy forces, and the Allen army carries out a large-scale slaughter.
However, this is only the beginning of the war.
"Damn it, what is the Allen army playing at!?"
The little girl in the tower shouts in jealousy, as the advantage lies with the Allen army. After killing the frontline demon warriors, they unexpectedly retreat instead of pursuing a victory.
Jelousy rises among the rear magicians as they were not included in the advance, and now they face a new wave of attacks from the side by the cavalry formation.
Thus, the battle line is maintained for three days, with the bodies of one hundred thousand demons scattered everywhere, while the Allen army suffers only two thousand casualties.
With Daniel's strategy at play, the gap of two hundred thousand against twenty-eight thousand is gradually narrowing.
