Act 25: Eruin's Tinder

The sudden situation on the battlefield disrupted all arrangements, and Brando understood for the first time that the so-called precision plan was basically equivalent to the decree of King Hesse I of the Great Road under the command art of this era - it was a joke. The aristocratic army, especially

The outdated command structure and sluggish discipline between the superiors and subordinates of the retinue knights are simply the enemy of all commanders. In such a situation, what you have to consider is not to pray that there will be no mistakes in any link, but to rejoice in that link.

Surprisingly, there were no flaws. The more complex the plan, the more loopholes it has.

The Slovak region is located to the north of the Silman Valley and southeast of the Tosankad Forest. It is the end of the Chablis Mountains in the Golan-Elsen Province. This low valley and hills cut off the Lake Valentin plain.

The connection with the Silman River Valley is like a natural barrier. Several tributaries that feed into Lake Valentin cut across the hills, forming several relatively gentle valleys. The Blood Rod's army is along these valleys.

As they moved forward, Ke Wen's men had already followed them to find out the direction of their march, and detected that these skeletons might pass between the two river valleys of Crevan and Chenier.

Krivan and Chenil are the two most important passages in the Slovak Hills. These two valleys are surrounded by Jondel Mountains and are distributed in a fork-like shape to the north. There are many small hills in between. During this season on the gentle slopes

There are also many large linden woods that can be used for ambushes. This place is almost an ideal ambush site. Blood Staff never seemed to have considered that a coalition army from Lantonilan and Viero would ambush him here. Before

His victory made him crazy with pride, which is why he failed here in history.

In Brando's original plan, the four armies of Viero, Lantonilan, Tonigel and the Highland Knights set up ambushes in the two river valleys of Krivan and Chenier, opening up a 20-mile radius.

Encirclement, Lantonilan's army was the first to block the attack, and then Viero and Tonigel's cavalry-based army went around to the gentler river valley area behind to launch an attack, completely encircling and annihilating the Blood Staff's army.

But the current situation has developed beyond everyone's expectations from the beginning.

The blood staff's army was divided into two and advanced in the valley about seven or eight miles apart. When one wing of the vanguard encountered Viero's army, the knights in Viero's army could not restrain their passion and rushed to attack.

The direct result was that the long-swept army of the Blood Staff did not enter the encirclement at all. Except for a small number of vanguards, its main force was actually still in front of the Lantonilan and Viero armies, and was far away from Tony.

Geer's army was farther away, and an ambush battle turned into a blocking battle from the beginning.

What's even more dangerous is that Viero's army has been completely exposed to the sight of Madara's army. They have lost one wing and their morale is accelerating. As for others, especially Lantonilan's army

The Highland Knights didn't even know what was happening on their flanks. After they learned that Viero's army had launched an attack first, they immediately changed their battle plan and tried to get around to the flank of the Blood Staff army first. Little did they know that this

The cover of the encirclement has already been poked with a hole by our own people.

Eco is still leading his few cavalrymen in a hurry through the mountains and forests. He can only pray that Viero's damn knights don't make too big a trap, but for his small wish, Maka

Luo and Ou Ding are not very optimistic. They are too aware of the private armies of these nobles. If they are allowed to pursue the victory or hold on in place, they may still be able to exert 70% to 80% of their strength. But once a frontal attack is launched, they are afraid that

It will collapse in an instant.

It has to be said that these two old nobles are very knowledgeable about some of the evils in their kingdom. Although they have not seen it with their own eyes, they have made close guesses.

Among all the parties involved in this battle, Brando was the first to obtain reliable information through Ke Wen's magic communication. Magic communication was rarely used in wars of this era, because magic communication could only be transmitted.

Text and Warnd's decryption technology is really terrifying: with a magical existence similar to 'deciphering cipher text', which can directly restore the original intention of the person who recorded the cipher text when he wrote the cipher text, the commanders are naturally unwilling to let themselves

The order was leaked into the hands of the opponent.

But in fact, 'deciphering the cipher text' is not flawless. On the contrary, the method of restraint is actually very simple. As long as the people delivering the message are divided into groups of two, one person is responsible for writing the cipher text, and the wizard apprentice who performs the magic message only needs to copy it.

, the person who sends the cipher text in this way only thinks of the original text of the cipher text, and will not reveal the secret hidden in it. The so-called simplicity is only after understanding the principle of this magic. The problem is that in this era, most mortals' magic

The understanding of magic is still at the level of knowing it but not knowing why. The wizards of Baiyin call them charlatans. The wizards who are truly inherited pay more attention to the knowledge contained in magic. Most Buga people are scholars, and humans

Most wizards are magicians, and this is the difference.

In fact, Buga's wizards have long found a way to restrain this magic, but this is a secret that belongs to them. It will not be popularized in the army of the Black Iron People until after the Slate War. But Eruin now has

Brando exists outside of this situation, so the so-called 'barrier of knowledge' no longer exists. He directly plagiarized the wizards' methods and used them.

It's just that this method has no technical content and is very simple to spread. Moreover, once magic communication becomes popular, countries with strong military forces and large armies like Madara and Cruz will benefit far more than Eruin.

Therefore, Brando has never publicly used this technology in the army, and often only uses it in some intelligence exchanges with his close men. Unless he is convinced that using it in a large-scale war can bring enough benefits to Eruin.

To offset the subsequent impact, otherwise he would never easily spread this secret to the Buga people.

In fact, Brando has already made a plan in his mind, but the war with the blood stick has never been serious to that extent.

He put away Caglis's magic letter in the drizzle. Madara defeated Viero's old knight army just as he expected, but the commander of Viero dared to attack those who came from the territory below.

The retinue knights gathered together and placed them on the left wing. Such boldness still made him dumbfounded. "I don't know if this is overconfidence or the so-called actor's self-cultivation." Brando thought to himself, if those things were given to him, he would

He would rather send them to Madara to be his enemy than to command those things. The reason why he uses "things" to describe those retinue knights is because Brando still has speculation about these small landowners and dilapidated knights.

The so-called army composed of communists was very impressive. In history, they ruined the northern nobles, which is exactly the same as today's stupidity. "But the commander may also be in a dilemma. At least in name, these knights are still the feudal lords of the Grand Duke of Viero."

Sir, they are willing to wave the banner and shout for the master, which is an act of loyalty and justice. If Grand Duke Viero dares not to accept it, then his prestige will be completely lost."

Brando knows the rules of these ancient noble games, knights and lords, which are the cornerstones of this era. But unfortunately, these cornerstones have begun to shake from the bottom. "Lords, belong to Your time is over—" At this time, he actually had time to think of a famous bard's verse in the game.

Brando was actually a little lucky in his heart.

Fortunately, Madara defeated Viero. What he was most afraid of was that Archduke Viero's army would attack first, so that the Blood Staff would be alerted in advance. This dark lord, who was always known for his caution, would turn his army around and withdraw. Go to the Silman area. If that happens, things will be troublesome, because there is still a Jean Denel in Eruin at the moment. They are ambushing the Blood Staff now to create a time difference. If the Blood Staff is defeated in the ambush, then Denel lost its foreign aid and retreat to Madala, and its morale naturally collapsed.

But if the Blood Staff is huddled in Silman, giving Jeandenel a hope to break out in this direction, then the armies of Toniguer, Viero and Lantonilan will be in this inaccessible hill. But I can't hold on for too long.

Once Denel and the Blood Staff are allowed to join together, there's no telling how long the chaos in the Southern Territory will end.

But what surprised Brando was that he guessed that Viero's knight army was bad, but he didn't guess that they could be so bad. When Caglis' letter said that Viero's left wing was When hundreds of skeleton armies were defeated, he almost thought it was a joke. But Caglis couldn't joke with him at this time, so Viero's army was defeated like a miracle.

It's just miraculous stupidity.

He flicked the letter, then walked aside, grabbed the saddle and got on the horse. Under the mist of rain, the army was setting off, and everyone was getting on their horses one by one; further away, Tonigel's young wizard group was being led by Charles. Assembling below, the wizards climbed onto the phantom war horses summoned by magic. Wearing uniform silver-gray robes and hoods, they all turned their sights in this direction. Among them, there were some from the mercenary group. There are charlatan warlocks, talented young people who have completed apprenticeship trials from Valhalla and Fircastle Castle, and a small group of druids brought by Quinir. Finally, there are some female faces. Most of these female wizards have pale faces and expressions. Cold, with high cheekbones and mean faces, they are witches from all over the world. They were persuaded by Babasha and the other two witches to join Brando - or the future Dark Dragon Mixia.

But no matter what, after these people were pieced together, Brando finally had the first magician group in the South. There were a total of 120 people, with varying strengths, and a quarter of them were Warlocks and wizards from various mercenary groups, two-quarters from Tony Geer and the academy of the Royal Knights Academy, and the last quarter are witches and druids. In the eyes of the regular army, this magician group is like It's a beggar group, but it's the first of its kind in the southern border.

The leader of the magician group is naturally Ciel, but his deputy is Antitina. Ever since the Stranger took a fancy to her talent and accepted her as an apprentice, Antitina began to systematically learn magic knowledge. Although now She is still an apprentice, but her attainments in magic technology are beyond the reach of most people. Brando knows the future of the magician group very well, so it is natural for Antitina to take this position.

Then there's the wind shooter.

This legendary army was born out of the Silver Elf Linge Legion and the Princess Guards. Their commander - whether present or past - Medisa was sitting on the unicorn, with her spear hanging on the saddle, her hands clasped together.

They are praying. Just like the warriors of the ancient silver elves, they pray that the spirits of the sages in the forest will protect them, make them brave and fearless, and defeat the enemy. They are also praying for the souls who died in the war. The songs of the silver elves are ethereal and ethereal, making everyone

The tree elf archers all stopped and listened, with expressions of admiration on their faces.

As for their deputy, Fina has long been the most ardent fan of the Silver Elf Princess.

Of all the armies he conquered, only the White Lion Guard was the quietest and most orderly. The young men from Tonigel seemed to have long been accustomed to the atmosphere under Brando, and those recruited from the original White Lion Army

The noncommissioned officers and soldiers who came in were full of curiosity, but they all had a sharp sword in their eyes. This sharp sword shone brightly in Freya's hands. Since this sword reappeared, the new white lion has a soul.

.

Their deputy commander, Caglis, is far away in the Silman Hills in the south at the moment, so it is naturally impossible for him to appear in this army.

And next to Brando, only Hipamira and Star are now left. The former is wiping the heavy surface of the mountains. The rain falls on the stone scepter, and a green halo is emitted from the scepter.

, like life sprouting from the soil, full of lush aura. However, the little fat dragon did not dare to say a word at this moment. It roasted Hipamira's shrimps and ate them, but the priest girl was not there.

He didn't cause trouble for it at dinner, but without saying a word, he just grabbed Shan Shan's attention and went to the door.

You must know that Hipamira benefited the most from the battle in the Dead Frost Forest. At this moment, her strength has returned to the level of elemental manifestation. Coupled with the nearly invincible Gaia's scepter, Star's fate can be imagined. Anyway, from

After that, it saw Hippamilla like a mouse seeing a cat.

The last group of people who appeared in Brando's field of vision were the Knights of the Broken Sword of the Cruz people.

These proud knights rode past the hill one after another, raising their swords to signal him. Although they were not many in number, only a few people understood the terrifying power of these knights. Little Pelo still wore his

Wearing a thick cloak with a crossbow stuck under the cloak, he raised his head and looked at Brando:

"Sir, is the news reliable?"

"Reliable without a doubt." Brando replied. Little Pelo looked slightly surprised. In this era, it is very difficult to follow and detect the undead army. This difficulty mainly comes from two aspects. On the one hand, it is

Before that, the black rose of Bromando rarely appeared in the eyes of the world. Even in Eruin's eyes, the dark country was a disintegrated and weak country. Less than ten years before the first Black Rose War

At that time, the lords of Karasu often led their armies into the territory of Madala to carry out retaliatory plunder.

Although the undead of that era were terrifying, the dark lords were like a piece of loose sand. They even wished to see their colleagues attacked by humans so that they could seize the opportunity to annex them. At that time, Madara, with the strength of a lord who wanted to fight against a kingdom in Eruin, was almost

Idiotic dreams. Therefore, except for the civilians who were harmed by the undead in the border areas, in the mind-set of the Eruin nobles, Madara is a weak, almost bandit-like country. For everything in this country, they

I don’t understand, and I don’t bother to understand.

The Black Rose War is a shocking nightmare for the entire Kingdom of Eruin. In fact, until now, the nobles still don’t know where they lost. The previous disastrous defeat of Viero’s army against the Blood Staff can be

Explain everything.

Therefore, this is a country where nothing is known and it is a mystery in itself.

On the other hand, the huge difference between the undead and the living made it very difficult for human scouts to approach the undead army. This problem was the most difficult to solve until Madara and Saint Osol fought. Madara

Although they have never bordered the Cruz Empire on land, young Pelo and other academics with academic backgrounds are still very aware of this, and are very suspicious of Brando's words.

Brando's confidence comes from knowledge that transcends the times. In later generations, the wind elves have many ways to deal with these skeletons, and Caglis had to teach him personally that it was not difficult to bypass the army of blood staffs. At that time, he was

During the Buqi period, he personally led the refugees to escape from under Madala's nose, while Caglis only led a few scouts to follow the army. This was even simpler. Needless to say, Madala didn't understand him at this time.

There are so many loopholes in the investigation methods.

Little Pello saluted the lord from a distance: "Since your lord is sure that the Blood Staff will not retreat for a while, then just wait for our good news."

Brando nodded, and under his gaze, the young men of the Knights of the Broken Sword pulled up the hoods of their cloaks, turned around, and left to the south. But for a moment, there was only a flying cloud in the rain.

The shadow of the cloak. At this time, Freya has arrived at the front of the White Lion Guards.

"Brando," she shouted, "Eco has contacted us."

"Then let's set off," Brando stood in the rain and replied with high spirits: "Let the knights of Viero understand that the times have abandoned them, welcome to the future, this new era!"

Freya was slightly startled.

Ciel whistled and said with a smile: "Let's go, Freya, what the lord means is that although he is a pig teammate, he still needs to be saved."
