Volume 6 In the World Chapter 681 The Power of Dranosh
The army left the city, and Jules followed the Grand Duke of Gros. The Holy Grail Knight looked at the gray sky and frowned:
"The weather is a little unusual."
Almost all the knights have felt this. The main sources of this knight army are the three principalities of Shire, Albrex Empire and Batoria Empire.
"It is the power of evil. The power of evil is corroding the main material world."
Grand Duke Gros raised his head and looked at the gloomy sky:
"The wind of evil is blowing across the earth. Under such circumstances, it is not surprising that anything weird will happen."
A long army of knights is marching on the grassland, and there are five Holy Grail Knights following the Grand Duke of Gros. This is the bodyguard sent by the Lake Fairy to the Grand Duke of Gros.
Since the whole country of the Principality of Shire converted to believe in the Fairy of the Lake, the Fairy of the Lake frequently performed miracles, causing the number of Shire believers to increase day by day.
The arrival of the miracle not only promoted the growth of the power of faith in the Fairy in the Lake, but also allowed many knights of the Principality of Charles to achieve breakthroughs, taking their overall strength to a higher level.
"Grand Duke Gros, our food can last for up to ten days."
A Holy Grail Knight came up from behind and said to Grand Duke Gros:
"If the winner cannot be determined for too long, we are in danger of running out of food."
"It doesn't take that long to ambush, ten days is enough. The northern barbarians are a warlike race, and I know their character well.
Regardless of the outcome of this battle, we must leave with one blow and return to the Shire to defend with all our strength."
Regarding food, Grand Duke Gros still has confidence: "What I'm worried about now is the food storage of Storm Fortress."
The countries in the south have responded. When the Principality of Charles faces a crisis, these emperors all understand who is the primary enemy.
Even the Holy Empire has promised to send reinforcements to support.
Even the troops of the Xirel Empire are preparing to move north, and other small countries are also preparing to provide food supplies.
Perhaps human beings are filled with all kinds of conspiracies and cannibalism, but in the end they are still united when facing a common foreign enemy.
The army continued to advance for two days, and Grand Duke Gros began to send out a large number of scouts to detect the movements of the orc army. The scouts suffered heavy losses, but they still brought back valuable intelligence.
The orc army was once overwhelming and advanced very fast. However, after the forced march, the orc army began to advance slowly.
Many chiefs of small tribes ignored the orders of the three Groat brothers and ran around. In the spring, many rivers and mountains began to melt snow. The muddy environment made it difficult for the orc army, especially the Chaos Hell Cannon and Chaos Mammoth War Elephants of the Chaos Dwarves, to advance.
becomes difficult.
Moreover, the main force of the orcs has not yet completely landed, and is still wandering on the long sea.
After several days of marching, Grand Duke Gros and several Holy Grail Knights analyzed the intelligence sent back by the scouts:
"Have you confirmed which tribe this orc army belongs to and who is leading it?"
"It is the Shadowmoon clan among the orcs, and its leader is the beast god's chosen champion, Blood Demon."
A Holy Grail Knight said:
"Things are not good. The orks destroyed all strongholds to destroy possible supplies in our route."
"The beast god's, the god's chosen champion?"

Holy Grail Knight Jules looked at the map and suddenly smiled: "It's a good gift. I will dedicate his head to the lady."
"The damned orcs will eventually turn to ashes under the light of the lady!"
"These green beasts will pay for what they have done!"
At this time, a scout, holding a big flag, came to Grand Duke Gross and others: "Grand Duke, we have the latest information."
"explain!"
"The orc army is gathering in the nearby plain! Judging from the number of people, it is just a vanguard army without left and right wing cover. The formation is extremely chaotic and long."
"Then, our opportunity has come!"
After two days of march, the knight army approached the plain mentioned by the scouts.
In the knight's tent, the candles were lit, and Grand Duke Gros and senior officers gathered together. Jules and other Holy Grail knights stood on the other side. They gathered around the big table in the tent and looked at the map above.
"Tomorrow, we will fight the orcs on this plain."

Grand Duke Gros pointed his finger at the small area of the plain:
"Our plan is to first have a large group of knights make a powerful charge against the orcs' formation, break up their formation, and then use Mr. Gonzalez on the left to lead a part of the knights to make a detour, and Mr. Jules on the right to fight against the orcs.
Counterattack.
Then I will lead the Chinese army to advance, defeat the main vanguard force of the orcs in one fell swoop, and drive these beasts into the sea to feed the fish!"
"Suppressing a large number of knights from the beginning? Directly attacking the orc army?" Gonzalez asked: "My Archduke, is this too reckless?"
"Oh, Gonzalez, obviously you can see what the terrain of this plain is like."
Grand Duke Gros smiled disdainfully:
"Do you think I can't see it? The orcs want to fight us here, and the knights are unable to exert their full capabilities. They want to lure my knights to attack their carefully prepared military formations in batches, and then gradually eliminate them.
.
I will not be so stupid as to fall into the trap. Tomorrow, I will personally lead the knight army to charge directly, and I must defeat the orc army in one fell swoop!"
Gonzalez remained silent upon seeing this, perhaps he thought that Archduke Gros's plan had some truth to it.
Jules on the side nodded:
"In this case, Your Majesty the Grand Duke, your knights will attack the orc army head-on. I will lead the knight army on the right to respond to your action from the side. We will give priority to defeating the orc army, because it is composed of the most elite orc warriors of the Shadowmoon Clan.
composition.
As long as we can force the Blood Demons of the Shadowmoon Clan to retreat, those vassal tribes will no longer obey the Shadowmoon Clan’s command!”
"We need to keep a reserve team."
Jules also had some objections to Grand Duke Gros' bold plan. He said:
"We can't rush all our troops without reserves."
"My adjutant, Aldreeld, will lead 3,000 knights and 8,000 knights' retinue, with a total of 11,000 cavalry as a reserve." Archduke Gros nodded.
"No infantry left?"
"Infantry is useless in this war, Jules. This is not the first time I have experienced a war with the northern orcs." Archduke Gros shook his head and said seriously: "The only ones who can defeat the orcs are knights."
"..." Jules pondered for a moment and nodded heavily.
Yes, the northern orcs believe in evil. Compared with human infantry, their combat effectiveness is no problem if they fight one against five, let alone one against ten.

The infantry will be easily defeated by the brave orc soldiers. Only the knights who have undergone strict military training can unite under the banner of the lady and fight against the terrifying orcs.
So the decisive battle strategy for the next day was decided, and everyone took the time to rest.
Grand Duke Gros and Jules walked out of the camp. Grand Duke Gros adjusted his plate armor and robe, and said to Jules:
"Your Excellency Jules, from now on we will all belong to the goddess and fight side by side. You have led your army to the Shire for more than a year. Here, I am very grateful for your support."
"This is a lady's order, this is my duty, you don't need to thank me."
Jules shook his head. On the contrary, his face was full of determination:
"I'm just worried that the strength of the orcs may exceed our estimates. The lady gave me a dream, saying that this invasion is unprecedentedly powerful."
"But do we have any other choice? We can only fight to the end."
"If we don't take the initiative to disrupt the orcs' position and continue to huddle in the Storm Fortress, then when the orcs come to the city, our knights will not be able to show their strength.
Moreover, we need time, and it will take some time for the support from the southern countries to reach the Shire.
Especially the reinforcements from the Holy Empire, hey, I don’t know if accepting the aid from the Holy Empire is feeding a tiger into danger!”
Grand Duke Gros frowned and followed Jules' gaze into the distance.
In the distance, it was pitch black. Tomorrow, the army would fight the orcs not far ahead, and the orcs had been waiting for them for a long time.
The night was like a black cloth, blocking all sunlight. Grand Duke Gros and Jules looked at the sky in silence.
White things began to fall from the sky, and they fell on the knights' hair and armor.
It's snow, it's starting to snow in the sky!
"Get some rest, Jules."
Grand Duke Gros patted Jules on the shoulder. The Grand Duke himself knew that tomorrow would be a fierce battle:
"I'm going to rest first."
"Um."
The Holy Grail Knight nodded silently. He stood alone in front of the tent, silent.
