Act 22: The Fighting Knight II

They originally thought that if they stay in Eruin, there is no doubt that the next life will be boring, even monotonous. This is not an empire, there is no opportunity to make achievements, there are no Hazel people, wind elves, Farnzan knights or even barbarians.

Such enemies, if they stay here, their role is only to fulfill their duties. They are soldiers, so they must obey orders, but at the same time

They were still young, passionate knights. Who didn’t want to conquer all directions on the battlefield and establish meritorious deeds? But suddenly, such an opportunity appeared in front of them. Although they were not fighting for the empire, at least they were not fighting against the empire.

, the nobles of Eruin are also nobles recognized by various countries. The key is that if the eldest son of the emperor also recognizes them, then they are actually equivalent to them.

The Cruz royal family is fighting.

Almost everyone was moved.

Little Pelo even went to ask Veronica and the eldest son what they meant under the instigation of Brund and others. The answer he got was: Prince Lenaret stayed in Eruin secretly as the most distinguished guest.

, and Count Tonigel's offense and defense are integrated, sharing weal and woe, so Tonigel's war is His Highness Lenaret's war, so if Count Tonigel allows it

, the Knights of the Broken Sword can be allowed to take orders from Eruin at the same time, but they must still protect the safety of His Royal Highness, the eldest son of the Emperor, as their first priority.

This answer revealed too much information. However, little Pelo did not have the time to analyze how many conspiracies and exchanges of interests there were, because he was also moved. They were born for war, and who would not want to go into battle to kill the enemy? Except with

In addition to fighting against their own motherland, they can fight against all enemies. War is their glory, scars are their medals, and they have a

A name. It's called Imperial Knight.

Three days ago, Brando still brought all the members of the Knights of the Broken Sword in the name of an observation group. Even Prince Lenaret was in this so-called observation group, but little Pelo understood that their opportunity would come.

, seeing that he was getting closer to the battlefield day by day. At this moment, he finally couldn't help but call out to the earl.

Brando glanced at him and smiled in his heart, thinking that these guys couldn't bear it anymore. When he asked Veronica to agree to let the Broken Sword Knights stay in Eruin, he asked the eldest son of the emperor

While loyal to him, he also obeyed his orders, but he used a trick to prevent Veronica from directly telling these young people the inside story. The reason was simple, he knew that with just a little

Give these young people a hint, and they will definitely not be able to help it. He knows these young war madmen from Cruz too well - one-third of the future generals of the entire empire will gather here. These people are born for war.

It is impossible to endure loneliness. These young knights have received the most rigorous training. They have gone through the most rigorous knight exams and actual combat tests.

According to experience, it is impossible to come to Eruin for vacation. If there is no opportunity, they may do their duty and be lonely, but if there is a slight possibility, they will definitely seize the opportunity.

Therefore, instead of giving them orders, it was better to actively stimulate their enthusiasm. He also wanted to see how powerful these future generals of the empire were.

But even though he had such a plan in mind, he still asked lightly: "What's the matter?"



The rolling hills of the Slovak region extend from the Silman area to the end of the Pine Mountains, and the eastern foothills of the Chablis mountains meet here, outlining the most rugged and difficult route of the northernmost section of the Golan-Elsen passage.

A section of terrain. This is also the easternmost point of the Tosankad Forest. Historically, Eco and his fiancée Yura led the coalition forces of Lantonilan and Viero to ambush and defeat them here.

The army of the blood staff was defeated, and today, it seems that history is repeating itself. The undead army all over the mountains and plains has once again entered this area.

The sky was gloomy, and the entire mountains and fields seemed to be exuding coldness, but to the undead, cold and heat did not matter. The skeletons moved along the river valley, making interlacing sounds, and the forest seemed to be filled with gray skulls.

, there are some skeleton knights in the distance. Unlike human knights, they rarely carry any flags. Their dark spears are theirs.

banner.

The development of the war was somewhat incredible.

Especially for the Blood Staff, since the White Wings Cavalry Regiment was wiped out in the Silman Valley, the Eruin people on the opposite side have fallen into complete passivity. The Vanmere Legion was forced to change defenses on a large scale, resulting in the entire

All fronts were demoralized and exhausted, which had serious consequences. In the battle a few days ago, the undead army defeated almost every army in front of it.

The enemy, the Vanmere Army was being completely defeated, even worse than the defeat in the first Black Rose War. It was as if suddenly, the Blood Staff found that there were no enemies in front of it, Eruin

The nearest army is still far away in Lantonilan. Even if they set off now, it will take at least a week to reach Kurk. By then, Kurk has already become a

It was in ruins. And the armies of Karassu and Viero were still nowhere to be seen. After it captured Kurk and joined forces with the human Jean Denel, Lantonilan's army was also gone.

Worth mentioning.

This is what the Most High failed to do in the war a year ago, but now it will be easily accomplished for him.

The blood staff was filled with pride and pride. In his opinion, Golan-Elson's Eruin army was simply not worth mentioning. He once swept across Karasu, and those highland knights were truly opponents, and

In comparison, the Eruin people of Golan-Elsen are weak and stupid. It would be a shame to suffer a loss in the hands of such an enemy. It seems that the one-eyed dragon Tagu

Si was nothing more than that. He had heard that the army that invaded Butchi had encountered a little trouble. The Supreme Being of Madara who held the mercury staff took refuge in those self-righteous vampires and ascended to the throne. Now it seems that

, her gaze is nothing more than that.

In the blood stick's heart, it seems that even the awe of the Supreme One has been lost by three points.

Its eyes were burning with pale phosphorus fire, and its indifferent gaze swept across the rolling hills, where it was rapidly expanding its undead army. If it were stronger, then even in Madala, the Supreme One would no longer

Dare to attack it easily. But the only thing that makes it a little troubled is those dark mercenaries from the Sea of ​​the Dead Moon. Their greed is a bit beyond compare.

Contrary to his expectations, those beggars originally only wanted some magic-rich lands, but after witnessing the weakness of human beings, they now started to take advantage of those big cities from him.

But how could it give it up? There are countless bones and souls.

However, the blood staff didn't know that. It was calculating the gains and losses in its mind. The dark mercenaries in the army, who had been fighting for a long time and almost regarded fighting as a natural activity such as eating and sleeping, were beginning to feel something unusual at this moment. Generally speaking,

For example, when the scouts on the periphery of the army are restricted, it may take a while for an inexperienced commander to feel the sense of detection.

The ability is limited. But for a veteran, as long as they lose a team of scouts, the vigilance accumulated from countless life and death experiences will make them feel as uncomfortable as if their neck is being strangled.

At this moment, the dark lords from the Sea of ​​Dead Moon feel exactly like this.

In the past hour, they had lost more than five teams of scouts.

The north of the entire army seemed to be suddenly shrouded in a layer of fog. These dark lords instinctively felt the danger, and while conveying their awareness of the situation to the Blood Staff, they sent more skeleton cavalry in that direction.

The Blood Staff is also an old opponent of the Eruin people, but the conclusion he came to is very simple - the Eruin people are ready to make a desperate move, they want to

Use all your strength to stop the undead army here, otherwise you will miss this barrier. Fort Kurk will be undefendable.

This conclusion was recognized by the dark lords.

After all, unlike the Blood Staff, these dark nobles from the Sea of ​​the Dead Moon know nothing about Eruin. Apart from the Vanmere Legion in front of them, their only knowledge of this kingdom is the kingdom far away in Ampelsel.

The White Lions. It can be said that their current military deployment of Eruin in the south comes from the blood staff. The blood staff tells them that there is no one in Golan-Elsen anymore.

As for the existence of similar armies, they believed it to be true and did not consider the existence of other ambushes at all.

In fact, the judgment of the blood staff is not incorrect. According to Madara's intelligence, the southern territory of Eruin is in disarray at the moment. Princess Griffiin has unified the forces from Ampelsel, Anlek to Tonigel.

, but for Lantoniland, Viero, Golan-Elsen and Karasu, they still only have nominal appeal, and the lords of these areas have their own differences.

Contradictions, the possibility of an alliance between the two sides before they actually face a threat is slim. But the Blood Staff never dreamed of it. In the southern border of Eruin, there is a knight madman named Eco. His favorite thing in life is to meddle in other people's business.

——In history, this corpse witch lord ruined his life so carelessly, but at this moment, he still persists in his obsession and repeats the same mistake.

What's more, this time, not only is there the knight madman Eco who plans to teach it a lesson it will never forget, but there is also an insidious and cunning being far away in Tonigel who has been plotting against it a few months ago.



Eco is frowning and staring at the map in front of him. At the moment, he is both the representative of Lantoni Lanfang and the commander of the aristocratic army of Duke Canonon. Of course, he has always had no commanding skills.

, in fact, the entire battle plan was completed with repeated revisions by Buga, Macaro, Odin, Yura and the knight generals under Duke Viero. Of course, the Highland knights and Highland knights were also added to this.

The knights finally sent a small group of knights composed of Silver's strength, with about 400 people in total. Although the number was small, the average strength level of Silver's upper class still made people look at them with suspicion, let alone with this knight.

The group is also accompanied by a wizard group with one third of the strength and the same level of strength.

Such luxurious configuration makes almost everyone unable to help but be a little surprised. It must be said that the Highland Knights have always maintained a transcendent status in the territory of Eruin, relying on their transcendent strength above the kingdom.

But after Her Royal Highness the Princess told Brando about this, Brando was a little funny. He knew very well that there were not many knights like this in the Highland Knights, there were only three in total, and they were among their elite. Troops - The ones sent this time should be the Knights of the Holy Stone. However, it is a bit strange for them to make this statement. It seems that there is no need to say it is a demonstration. The Highland Knights

The current status is not achieved in a day, and their current actions make people feel a little too enthusiastic.

But in fact, starting from the battle of Ampelsel, the behavior of these knights was a bit too weird. In fact, they could have avoided that muddy water at all, and it would not do them any good. If it was just because of his grandfather's identity, If they just joined the war inexplicably, Brando felt that this was a bit unreasonable.

However, he couldn't guess what the Highland Knight was thinking at the moment, so he didn't mention anything relevant in the letter.

He was concerned about another thing - the entire battle plan was actually his own handwriting. He finally convinced everyone through Her Royal Highness the Princess to use the blood staff as the first target. I have to say that Elu of this era Because people seem to have some deep-rooted prejudice against Madala, thinking that the country in the dark is only good at making small troubles on the border, even if it is experienced

After the Black Rose War, most people thought the same thing. In fact, in the war a year ago, the undead did not seem to penetrate deep into the border of Eruin, and the war finally only stayed in the border area. The only ones who really fought against Madara were the Vanmere Army, the Southern Army and the Highland Knights. Therefore, in the eyes of most people.

In the eyes of those who have fought against them, Madala is the kind of image that can be compared with bandits and bandits.

Whether it's the royal party or the Grand Duke of Viero, most people's eyes are on Jean Denel. In their opinion, what they have to do is to defeat Count Jean Denel first. Then after the Blood Staff lost its internal response, it would naturally retreat. Even the Highland Knights had the same view. They had the most fights with Madara and had the deepest prejudices. The Blood Staff once swept across

Karasu, but this is actually just an exaggeration. The blood staff's front had not swept through half of the Kadirego area before it was blocked by the Highland Knights to the west of Silver Horse City, and then circled south to Golden City. , returned to Madala. They know best how capable those skeletons are.

On the contrary, Count Jeandenel is Eruin's confidant. Once Count Jeandenel is defeated, the chaos in the south will basically be settled in half. As for Archduke Viero, the relationship with Jeandenel There are also personal vendettas.

The only one who supports Brando is Eco, but the knight madman is simply unwilling to fight a civil war. In his opinion, the invaders should be taught a lesson first.

But in the end Brando convinced everyone on the grounds that even if Count Denel was defeated, he might flee to Madara.

Although it actually has no impact on Eruin whether Count Denel flees or not, this reason convinced Archduke Viero. This Duke was definitely the least happy to see Count Denel escape and ascend to heaven.

A person, the hatred between the Viero family and the Gendenel family has been forged several generations ago. It can be said to be an undying hatred. And the Grand Duke of Viero

Since they turned to support Brando's plan, and there was Eco, the representative of Lantonilan, the Highland Knights no longer objected, and in the end Brando's plan was unanimously adopted——

Prioritize the ambush of the blood staff.

This combat plan basically copied the example of the allied forces ambushed the Blood Staff by Eco and Yura that day. The location of the ambush was still chosen in Slovakia, the most advantageous terrain. And it can be said that they have more advantages now than in history.

Because historically, Eco could not find a road to enter the Silman area, so he could only sneak in from the north of Tosankad Forest. As a result, a lot of time was wasted. But

This time Brando persuaded Ke Wen and his party to open the door for them. Now the hills of Silman are almost under their control, and they can put an army under the eyes of the blood stick at any time without anyone noticing.

Underneath.

But it was at this time that Eco ran into trouble.

According to the original plan, the coalition forces of Viero and Lantonilan had to wait until Tonigel's army arrived before attacking the Blood Staff. However, there were still several hours left before the attack. The knights under Grand Duke Viero

He was already unable to hold himself back. Eco himself hadn’t figured out what was going on, but Macaro and his team realized the problem. Big Viero

The Duke's men obviously regarded the blood staff as fish meat on the chopping board. They felt that the purpose of the battle plan proposed by Count Tonigel was simply to share the credit with them. The reason was very simple. The army of Lantonilan added

The strength of Archduke Viero's army is almost twice that of the Blood Staff, and as we all know, the undead army's individual combat capabilities are actually inferior to

of the human army.

That is to say, when the difference in military strength reaches twice that, and there is still a mental calculation, it is impossible to lose, so there is no need to wait for Tonigel's army to arrive.

Therefore, as soon as the Blood Staff's army entered their field of vision, these local lord knights began to prepare for action.

When Macaro and others told Eco about this situation, the knight fanatic suddenly became confused. He never dreamed that such a situation would arise. In fact, it was not just him, but even Brando himself.

Unexpectedly, Brando only remembered the ambush battle in history, but forgot that the Eruin nobles of this era were not Princess Griffin more than ten years later.

The army that he and Freya established after the Kingdom was reestablished, and more importantly, the historical Lantonilan coalition was actually led by Eco, but this time due to the intervention of him and Her Royal Highness, Archduke Viero

The number of troops dispatched is much greater than in history, so it is very doubtful whether Eco's words still count on the frontal battlefield.

You must know that this is not an army in the normal sense, it is a coalition of nobles. Usually when the dukes are fighting, there are often private actions of the retainers below, let alone the coalition of two duchies now. In fact, the news

When it was passed to Eco, the knight lords under Archduke Viero had already started to take action.
