On the afternoon of the first day after entering Fernando Territory, Ronan encountered a reconnaissance cavalry team under Leon. Although he tried his best to chase them, there were still some who were killed by Ronan and the strong lions.
Some ran back, and without Jackson's eagle eyes, Ronan couldn't find them.
Leon's army began to gather together. Apparently they knew that Ronan had arrived and wanted to enter Fengming City. Ronan would have to collide with Leon's army no matter what.
"Now that they know that we are nearby, they must have started to gather their troops to look for us or directly strengthen the siege to force us to show up. Magna, what would you do if it were you?" Ronan analyzed it.
Asked Magna.
"Well, if it were me, I should steadily advance the battle, but after Leonard's defeat, Leon will definitely be more anxious after you take control of the royal city, and his impression of your strength should still be the same as before. I guess he should take the initiative.
Strike out and find us!" Magna responded to Ronan.
"Well, no matter what, we must first settle in Fengming City to take back the initiative, and fight with them bit by bit, waiting for Jackson and the others to use their strength to defeat them!"
The marching speed of the troops slowed down. On the one hand, it was to detect Leon's army to avoid being suddenly attacked by him. On the other hand, it was to recover the physical strength consumed by the previous rapid march and prepare for the upcoming battle.
"They are already here!" Barbossa walked into the tent and said to Leon, who was cutting a piece of dried meat with a knife.
"Rodrit, I didn't expect that he could actually kill Leonard. There are rumors that he is the reincarnation of the God of War and has angels and dragons working for him. Do you think it is true?"
Leon used the tip of the knife to pick up a cut piece of dried meat and stuffed it into his mouth, chewing hard while looking up at Barbosa.
"God has not appeared for hundreds of years. That Roderite may have some magic, but he can never be a god!
Finally, the dragon, although I don’t know where he found it, the spies I arranged did see it. According to the spies’ reply, the dragon was about fifteen or six meters long. I carefully checked the information in the classics.
It should just be a young dragon.
According to the ancient methods of dealing with dragons recorded in the classics, I have ordered craftsmen to imitate and design some large-scale instruments specifically designed to deal with dragons. If they really appear then, they will definitely give Roderite a surprise.
"
Barbossa said confidently to Leon.
"Do you think we can win?" Leon asked after talking for a while.
Barbossa was silent for a while, then slowly said:
"At the beginning, neither Leonard nor us took him seriously. They all thought that he was just a careerist who was swallowed up by his ambition and wanted to get a piece of the pie by relying on His Highness the Sixth Prince. He could be easily extinguished.
flame.
But he repeatedly let us know his mistakes and ignorance. The southern nobles who despised him were defeated, and His Royal Highness Leonard, who still didn't pay much attention to him, was also defeated.
They all lost completely. Roderite is now stronger than before. This time we must not underestimate him like the southern nobles and His Highness Leonard did.
We still have the advantage to beat him, but it will be a hard fight and we have to go all out and fight every battle and not let them catch any mistakes."
"Well, pass on the order to strengthen the patrols of the scouts. Be sure to be prepared when Rodrith's army enters our vicinity. Their cavalry is very strong and fast. If they are attacked, they will be at a disadvantage."
Ang waved his hand and signaled Barbossa to arrange the task.
The scout team consisting of several light cavalry divided into dozens of groups and spread out around, and started a scout battle with the scouts from Ronan's side.
On the battlefield, information is definitely one of the key factors to victory. In this regard, Ronan, who can communicate with the heroes remotely, has a great advantage.
Ronan took the lead and contacted Meluses who was dispersed into several troops and played a game of chase with Leon's troops in various villages and towns in Fernando's territory.
Lysus' troops were all gathered back. Although these black men were not very good at fighting, they had relatively good obedience as slaves and there were many of them.
Ronan's troops were stationed in a village in the southwest of Fengming City. Ronan had visited this place before when he was traveling, but now it was devastated. The houses were rickety and there were many traces of fire on the ground.
Everything was almost destroyed, with burned and trampled crops everywhere.
The villagers are desperately rebuilding their homes with the help of Ronan's troops. After repeated battles, it is these villagers who suffer. Their families are killed, their houses are destroyed, and the land and crops they depend on for survival are also damaged.
, but they can do nothing but lament their sad fate and how they will survive in the future.
"Give some food to the villagers and help them build their houses. Remember to tell Bornhard that after Leon's army is driven away, remember to allocate a sum of money to compensate the villagers for the damaged villages.
And the money to rebuild the village, at least let them survive this winter!" Ronan walked in the broken village, looked at the traces left by the war around him, and said to Magna in a low voice.
Ronan could only see the cruelty of the war world and the dangers and hardships faced by the people living in it from some news channels that broadcast war areas or news reports on the Internet in his previous life. Now he is personally involved in it, and
He was still one of the two parties who caused everything, which made Ronan feel a little inexplicable.
Although he has long known that war will inevitably cause destruction, families will be broken, wives and children will be scattered, and even corpses will be scattered everywhere, but Ronan has never gone deep into the grassroots to observe before, and this is the first time he has seen the aftermath of the war.
The village decoration and the status of the residents living in it.
"War is like this, sir. In this kind of world, this kind of thing happens every day. The survival of the fittest is the most perfect interpretation here. After the whirlpool of war, we are all floating on the sea.
The driftwood may be broken or submerged by a wave at any time.
Everyone on both sides of the enemy and us are just materials fed into this huge meat grinding machine called war. Whoever runs out of materials first will lose." Magna saw that Ronan was not in good condition and left.
He came to Ronan's side and looked at Ronan and said softly.
"I know, it was just a sudden emotion. Unknowingly, I was assimilated, alas!" Ronan raised his head and sighed.
