Early the next morning, the army came out of the camp. The Marquis of Anghi led an army of more than 30,000 people into the Ardennes from the front. The army of Winford merged with the army of Bastogne and prepared to enter along the circular path. Arden Forest. ,. !
The number of this unit is not large, about 6,000 people. It has about 3,000 combatable soldiers, and the rest are army personnel and logistics personnel.
Early in the morning, a kingdom knight who appeared to be in his thirties, wore a silver-colored gilt flower-patterned cross helmet with a golden fire-dragon statue on the top of the helmet, and was forged by the master craftsman of Bastogne The full set of Mithril plate armor came to Ryan: "Hello, Lord Ryan, Knight of the Holy Grail, I am Marquis Gabriel de Bastogne."
"Hello, Your Excellency Gabriel, this is Ryan Macado." Ryan shook his hand.
"I'm very glad to be able to fight with you. If you don't mind, please let us soldiers from the Bastogne Beast Killer regiment lead the way." Gabriel said earnestly: "The soldiers live with the beasts on the edge of the Arden Forest all year round. People are'engaged' and they are quite familiar with the complicated roads in the forest."
"Oh, of course, I certainly welcome soldiers who know the way to lead us!" Ryan said very sincerely: "We are an army from afar and are not familiar with the forest. Your Bastogne army has been with these beasts all year round. We are'engaged', and we have to rely more on your performance."
"It's worthy of being the champion of the "women"!" Marquis Gabriel praised: "Please!"
"Please!"
About an hour later, the army completed its assembly and began to march along the road towards the forest.
At the forefront are more than 100 kingdom knights, then more than 300 ranger knights, then 600 serf archers, then more than 2,000 serf infantry led by sergeants, and the rest are a large number of soldiers. Behind the palace with the logistics unit, more than two hundred rangers were covering the two wings of the army.
Ryan, Julius, and Gabriel, the three kingdom knights, followed the leading kingdom knight team.
The third son of the Duke of Bastogne had a firm face, a lot of scars on his face, and his eyes were shining.
The Bastogne family has no mediocre people from generation to generation. As a direct descendant of the first knight king Arthur, this family has always had an extremely strict family system and house rules. Coupled with good training and excellent guidance since childhood, this marquis is also strong. Not surprising.
"This time, the Winford Fugitive Group and the Bastogne Beast Killer Group are going to fight side by side." Ryan took the initiative to provoke the topic.
"It is an honor for us Bastogne knights to fight side by side with the famous Winford knights, and it is an honor for me, Gabriel, to fight side by side with Lord Ryan, the champion of the'women's' champion!" Gabriel Er also seriously responded: "Although Bastogne's army is assigned here, we do not intend to be a spectator."
"Audience? How do you say that?" As we gradually entered the forest, the originally neat army formation could no longer advance so many troops side by side, and the whole army began to lengthen. Ryan said carefully while paying close attention to the movement in the forest.
"Hey, Lord Ryan, you don't know anything. When I learned that Anche Des Monde arranged for us to go on the right, I knew that he didn't want us to steal his limelight." Gabriel's The tone was a bit dissatisfied.
"I would like to hear more." Ryan and Julius glanced at each other, they were not clear about the situation in the Arden Forest.
"The right road is the most difficult road for the Three Route Army. There are a lot of Beastman war gangs on this road, and the road is also rugged and difficult to navigate, so it is difficult for us to have enough gains and it is not convenient to march in a hurry. "Gabriel continued: "Your Excellency Ryan, our army is not enough. My view of our march is to move forward steadily. Don't pursue the results too much. Just sweep the gang of Beastmen along the predetermined route. , Just meet up at the scheduled location."
"This is also my idea. The forest is not our home court. How do the knights charge in this uneven land and dense thickets?" Ryan nodded.
"We are here to kill the orcs, not to play 'hide and seek' with the orcs," Julius also said.
So the strategic policy of the Right Army was set in this way.
The knights of Bastogne have very rich experience in fighting against the Beastmen. Gabriel felt very relieved to see Ryan affirmed the plan. He was really afraid that the young holy grail knight in front of him would be victorious. Like a hot-blooded ranger and knight, he chased him when he saw a Beastman appeared.
In the forest, such a fight must be over.
The first day of the march did not encounter too many accidents. There were almost no traces of the beasts along the way. Everyone moved forward smoothly, and then set up camp near a small stream. The soldiers quickly boiled water to cook. Also gradually fell into the dusk.
"Hex, arrange people to patrol that hill! Olivier, pay attention to sending people to the swimming handle of the creek, and pay attention to whether the orcs are poisoned." Lane arranged the army patrol, and Gabriel of Bastogne also arranged With his own army: "Baudouin! Alfons! You know what to do!"
"Yes! My Marquis!" The knights of Bastogne are well-trained, and the serfs are very familiar with camping. These soldiers don't need to remind them. They look very skilled. The Bastogne Beast Killers are not for nothing. of.
Ryan stood alone by the stream and looked at the flowing stream. He noticed the sound of footsteps coming from behind him, as well as some faint fragrance.
Hmm~ It's the scent of jasmine'flower' and iris'flower', so Ryan turned around: "Miss Sulia? Miss Silvia?"
"Good night! Lord Ryan!" "Good night, Lord Ryan, Knight of the Holy Grail!" The two'girls' both greeted Ryan, and Silvia was still a bit rusty, and Sulia was quite natural: "I was thinking what?"
In the summer night, the quiet forest, the cool breeze, the sound of insects, and the two beautiful females in front of him, Ryan was in a good mood. The two female knights did not wear knights when they camped at night. Armor, uniform is the standard Breton knight dress, that is, the blue "color" vest and white "color" shirt, as well as brown "color" tight pants and riding boots, two "female" knights The figures are all very good, only Ryan can tell that Su Liya's shirt buttons are tighter.
"I'm wondering whether we can achieve our goal in this chivalrous war. At present, we have not encountered a powerful enemy." Lane said softly: "The Beastman seems to have disappeared."
"Your Excellency Ryan must not be careless! These beasts may be spying on us in the dark right now!" Silvia said subconsciously.
"Sylvia! How could Lord Ryan be that kind of knight?" Su Liya quickly motioned Silvia to stop talking.
A'quite' serious, beautiful'female' knight who likes a stern face, Ryan thought, but this'maid' has a very good relationship with Su Liya. The two people love sisters, so he smiled and said: "Miss Silvia, don't be so serious. I don't mean to relax. On the contrary, I am afraid that the Beasts will not fight with us."
Hearing this, the two 'female' knights were all here, so Ryan continued: "We Breton knights, what are we good at?"
"Well, what we are good at is to charge in the Plains Group, and what we are good at is to fight in formation." Su Liya thought for a moment, and Ma understood: "So, if the Beastmen are willing to fight us head-on, our knights will occupy a lot of money. The advantages."
"Yes, because of this, the Beastmen will never fight with us head-on. We are dressed in strong armor and holding heavy shields. Once a group charge is launched, the Beastmen cannot resist. We know this, and the Beastmen know that too. , Never underestimate the wisdom of these beasts, they may be much smarter than many knights." Ryan said these words and raised his head to look at the army camp.
Several Bastogne's ranger knights and Winford's ranger knights had already quarreled, and it seemed that another knight's duel was about to begin.
"Puff~" The two'female' knights looked at each other, and they couldn't help laughing.
For the ranger knights who want to charge mindlessly, perhaps the Beasts are really much smarter.
"Your Excellency Ryan is absolutely right!" At this time, the Marquis of Gabriel and the Marquis of Connelly joined the conversation between them, especially the Marquis of Gabriel, the kingdom knight who is already in his 30s, clapped his hands: " I have been fighting with these beasts for more than 20 years on the battlefield since I was sixteen. I have a deep understanding of their cunningness. In this huge, dense forest, our knights are strictly disciplined, defending the strong and attacking the weak, so Beastmen will never give us a chance to fight on the plains and grasslands. On the contrary, dense jungles, narrow roads, and even muddy environments are the favorites of these beasts."
Ryan nodded, and he suddenly said with regret: "I suddenly felt, Your Excellency Gabriel, you are the one who is suitable to lead the army."
"Perhaps." The Marquis Gabriel held the broken steel knight sword on his waist, his face was ugly: "But I know I can't get this position, so this time the war of chivalry is not the Marquis of Anshi. Commander, your Majesty Richard will not'hand over' the position of commander in this Chivalry War to me."
"Why?" Ryan asked kindly.
"Because my surname is Bastogne!" Gabriel left after speaking. Sulia walked to Ryan's side and said: "Richard's seat of the king of knights should be Percy'Mund'. The duke's, but he refused."
Ryan understood.
Yes, the Duchy of Bastogne, the land of Longxing in Brittania, the direct descendants of the first knight king Arthur, the red'color' fire dragon family, their talents are truly pure royal blood, the first knight king Arthur His dragon skin armor is still preserved in the castle of Bastogne, and the Duke of Berch'Mon' de is a glorious holy grail knight and holy knight.
If the Duke of the Red Dragon in the King's Selection Association stood up and shouted, saying that I am the purest blood of Arthur's descendants, and that I am also the Holy Grail knight and the holy knight recognized by the'women', then the selection of the king will be No need to open it, Bosch Monde can directly crown the Knight King by relying on these two points alone.
He refused to be crowned as a knight king. The duke himself was not interested in becoming a king, which allowed the election of the king to continue.
Will the current Knight King Richard be grateful for this?
No, not at all. On the contrary, Richard will take extra precautions against the Red Dragon Duke and strictly monitor him.
To put it simply, the Red Dragon Duke holds a "strong claim" to Brittany, and he is still a local faction. If this is a game, then the Knight King Richard should do everything possible to replace him or assassinate him. Just drop it.
But this is reality, not a game. Richard can't do that, but prevention and suspicion are indispensable.
Some people have rivers and lakes, and some people have politics. Ryan knows that any kingdom has its own unique political situation, such as the electoral system of the empire, such as the Duchy of Bretania and the faith of the lake fairy 'female'.
Ryan is not a barbarian, he cannot push it like a barbarian, occupying a place and declaring another territory under my control. The result of this is the enemy of the world, and then the fear and abuse of the Chaos Cthulhu will be Very happy, because they will get a lot of energy because of this behavior, sit back and watch human infighting and wait for the chance of a fatal blow.
The road is still long, and the Baron is just the beginning.
Ryan raised his head, and the summer moon was gradually turning round, emitting a bright light, moisturizing the dark earth.
Wait, gradually become round?
...
In the depths of the Arden Forest, the same moonlight shone on the heads of the beasts and beasts.
Wanmo Rock, also known as the'Chaos' core, is the sacred totem of the power and beliefs of the beasts. Various materials in the camp are also stacked here to appease the gods and exchange favor. The weapons, armors, flags and dismemberment captured by the defeated enemies The dead bodies of the enemy were surrounded by these stones.
Ten Thousand Demon Rocks always stand where the winds of magic converge, and are usually a place where a bad omen meteor falls.
Today, a grand banquet of Beastmen was held in the depths of the forest. Groz, the screaming shaman "Heart Eater", more than three meters tall, is presiding over this meeting of the League.
A captured Breton knight screamed before being dragged to the Ten Thousand Demon Rock, and was generously rewarded to all the strong beasts who came to the Alliance.
"We...eat! We...kill! We, strong!!!" Maras, the Beastman and Beastmaster "Bloodhorn" Maras, who is nearly four meters tall, has two huge horns and holds a battle axe: "Kill!!!"
After finishing speaking, the Beastmaster bit the head of a captive knight and his head splashed all over.
"Kill! Kill! Kill!" Tens of millions of Beastmen surround the Ten Thousand Demon Rock, while more Beastmen continue to come from afar, and every corner of the black forest is filled with it. These terrible creatures.
The earth is shaking, and the forest is crying.
The raging flames of the League lighted the sky, burning around the Ten Thousand Demon Rocks. The shamans threw the grass containing hallucinogenic ingredients into the flames, and large streams of colorful 'color' fireworks scattered all over the jungle.
The scent of fire and rotting'meat' attracted the Beastmen from the entire Arden Forest to gather towards the Ten Thousand Demon Rock, and gradually formed a huge torrent of flesh and blood, and every Beastman leader who arrived used Beastmen. The original character of the character depicts its name at the place of the Ten Thousand Demon Rock, loyal to the mighty Beastmaster "Blood Horn" Maras.
Three thousand, five thousand, eight thousand, ten thousand, the number of beasts is increasing every second, the first horned beast, the tall giant, the fierce doomsday bull, the chaotic war dog, the razor beast, The eagle-body'female' demon, the man-horse beast, and the most terrifying one-eyed giant and the four-armed bull demon.
"The knight...coming! The beasts...killed! Oh ah ah ah ah ah!!!" The Beastmaster raised his battle axe and let out a deafening roar, "Kill!"
"Kill! Kill! Kill!" The countless beastmen war gangs, battle groups, and beast groups with more than twelve thousand responded to the call of the Beastmaster. In addition, countless beasts in the distance are joining them: "Kill all... the knight! Kill... the false **** in the lake!"
"The season of rest...has passed...now...is the season of killing!"
