As the three-meter-high ink-colored door covered with copper slowly opened, the army followed Count Reagan in front and entered the border city.
There are no residents, no excessive houses, and no shouting vendors. This is Allen's first impression.
What Allen saw the most were the jet-black military tents, like black graves, densely distributed in the border city. Allen noticed that there were no residents or houses in the border city. It was truly complete.
It looks like a military fortress. Apart from soldiers, there are only some personnel serving the soldiers! Of course, you don’t want to see a woman here!
Within the surrounding city wall, apart from the tombs, there are only a few well-guarded houses left. This border city only serves for war.
The cold and chilly, black-toned Border City just came into Allen's eyes. At this time, there were a large number of soldiers training outside many military tents. The sound of training sounded one after another, spreading throughout the Border City, giving Ai
A feeling of tension as a war approaches.
It didn't take long for Allen and others to be stationed in an open space, and camps began to be set up in their respective territories. The same jet-black military tents that Allen saw just now were erected in front of Allen's eyes.
As for Count Reagan, after entering, he was invited to one of the few houses in the city. At this time, the other three great lords had already arrived at the border city and were waiting for Count Reagan to discuss the matter of blocking the Duke of Bru's army.
Taking advantage of the gap between the army and the camp, Allen took the opportunity to observe the camps of the other three territories.
The Counts of Andre, the Counts of Alva, and the Counts of Reagan both dispatched eight thousand warriors, and the overall strength of the soldiers was comparable to that of the Counts of Reagan.
What concerned Allen the most was the warriors from the Marquis of Lane. This time, the Marquis of Lane brought not many warriors, so they probably brought the Knights of the Iron Spear with them. The warriors of the Knights of the Iron Spear are indeed very strong.
All of them were wearing armor and holding guns, with sharp eyes, giving people a sense of oppression. The most important thing was that a small number of them were actually wearing iron armor.
Allen estimated that based on the current strength of the Iron Spear Knights, his newly established Giant Rat Knights might not be a match, because this was a fact, and Allen had to admit it even if he didn't admit it.
Although in terms of individual strength of the warriors, the Giant Rat Knights and the Iron Spear Knights are basically the same, the Giant Rat Knights were just forcibly put together by Allen, lacking long-term training, and even the iron weapons Allen had
There is no complete match, let alone iron armor.
Although Allen recognized the strength of this knighthood, he did not have a good impression of Marquis Lane. Judging from Marquis Lane's past behavior, this time the Iron Spear Knights are definitely a soy sauce. Of course, this does not mean that they
There is no strength, it is just that under the leadership of Marquis Lane, their contribution is absolutely very small.
Because this knighthood can be regarded as the lifeblood of the Marquis of Lane. It was created by the Lane family with all their efforts. If the Knights of the Iron Spear are severely damaged, the Marquis of Lane will be severely damaged. The Lane family has accumulated many years of heritage.
It will also be used up.
Allen suddenly remembered something, that is, Marquis Lane seemed to have sent him an invitation to attend his 70th birthday party on May 1st. But given the current situation in the Principality of Kane, it is estimated that the party will be ruined.
Yes, but this is good, it saves him a gift.
Leaving Marquis Lane behind, Allen climbed up the city wall. The width of the city wall was about five meters. The dark bluestone had been eroded by wind and rain all year round, making the entire city wall look ancient and thick.
Allen slowly walked to the east side of the border city, which was also facing the direction of the Principality of Blue, allowing Allen to easily observe the landforms of the border city.
Flat! Still flat! Looking eastward from the city wall, you can see as far as the eye can see. It is a true plain landform.
The scene to the east seems very puzzling to Allen! Could it be that this area is connected to the Principality of Bru by a plain, otherwise this situation would not happen!
You must know that general military fortresses are built in strategic locations, which are easy to defend and difficult to attack. But what is happening with this flat terrain now!
Allen was sure that this kind of terrain would not be able to hold back the Duke of Buru's army. It was flat and wide all around, with no end visible at a glance. Once the Bulu Principality's army bypassed the border city, they could march straight into the Earl of Alva, and then move to fight in Cai.
Enled, deep into the hinterland of the Principality of Kane, Allen now couldn't help but regret that he didn't let Andy collect more information about the border city.
In order to understand the specific situation, Allen found a soldier stationed on the city wall. Judging from his clothes, he should be a squad leader or something!
"Sir! What's the matter?" Captain Chel asked in confusion as he looked at Allen who was approaching.
"Are you a soldier from the border city of the Earl of Alva? Or someone from other Earldoms or Marquises?" Allen asked.
Looking at Allen, who was wearing obvious aristocratic clothing, Chel did not refuse to answer.
"Sir! I am a soldier belonging to the Earl of Alva! I follow the order of Earl of Alva and garrison the border city!"
"You have been stationed in Border City?" Allen said, looking at Chel and the soldiers like him standing on the city wall.
"Yes, sir!" Chel nodded.
"I wonder if it would be convenient for you to tell me about Border City?" Allen said with a smile.
"Sir, what do you want to hear?" Chel asked hesitantly. After all, some things must be kept secret.
"About the location of Border City! Why was Border City built here? In my opinion, this is not a good location!" Allen stated his purpose.
After hearing Allen's question, Chel's face relaxed and he said with a smile: "Sir, do you want to say that the geographical location of this border city is very unreasonable?"
Allen did not speak, but nodded, indicating for him to continue.
"Sir, you may not know that building the border city here is a last resort! Our Earldom of Alva borders the Fire Dragon Territory of the Principality of Bru, and this bordering area is a plain landform. The plains in our Earldom of Alva
It’s called the Desolate Plains, and the plains in the Fire Dragon Territory are called the Red Earth Plains. In fact, the two plains are connected together!” Chel said with a wry smile.
"In other words, there is no danger to defend?" Allen knew clearly!
Chel nodded after hearing this.
"That's right! So in order to resist the incoming troops from the Principality of Bru, we built a border city at the border. However, this border city can only be built on the plains. This also means that in the event of a war, not only do we have to go out of the city to fight,
A large number of soldiers had to be sent to explore the enemy's position in order to stop the enemy in time. I was once one of the investigators!" Chel seemed very excited to introduce everything about Border City to Allen!
