Section 42 Crewe Leads Offensive and Defensive Battles (End)

In the Jamici grassland, the water has nearly wiped out all species in this grassland except for aquatic life, and the swollen corpses in the lower reaches of the Sancha River are connected together, and the smell of corpses can even waft into Hallensburg.

After joining up with the Eleventh Army on the morning of the 28th, the 9th and 10th Corps of Kru led by Pedi advanced all the way to the Gula Mountain Pass in the northwest of the Jamici steppe.

But the advance of the troops was extremely slow ...

The flood that had spread throughout the Jamich steppe a few days ago had caused the water level of the tributaries of the Sancha River to rise by nearly twenty centimeters in a short period of time, so much so that Pedi's army had to build pontoon bridges almost every twenty kilometers of advance, and at the same time, the official roads that had been wide and easy to march on were also muddy and difficult to walk due to the heavy water, and most importantly, almost all the main roads were greatly damaged when the orcs left.

Moreover, even the goddess was having trouble with Pedi, and since the night of the 28th, the continuous light rain over the Jamici grassland has not stopped.

The battle of Kru entered October with the slow advance of Pedi's main army...

At around six o'clock in the morning on October 1,

In the temporary camp of the main force of Kru in the northwest of the Jamich grassland, Peidi, who was quite tired, woke up from his temporary tent in a noise, he wanted to continue to sleep for a while, he was really tired,

However, after being woken up, Pedi couldn't sleep, and the continuous insomnia in the past few days made him very painful.

"Eden, Beze. Pedi called out to his servants, and in the end, he chose to get out of bed with the soldiers.

"Hula"

The curtain was quickly opened, and a cool breeze blew into the tent, making Peddy feel very refreshed, and he looked at Eden and Beze, who walked in, and said, "Open the curtain, I need a cold breeze to help me clear my head." ”

At this moment, the curtain was gray, and the tiny raindrops glistened in the light of the fire, and the shouts of the soldiers for the morning exercise rang out for nearly an hour, which was the necessary confrontation drill of the Ninth and Eleventh Legions every morning, presided over by the Marquis of Daisily himself.

Pei Di's mood may have been due to insomnia, or perhaps because the slow advance of the army had become very poor, and his slightly gloomy complexion made the two servants look very careful when helping him put on his armor, for fear of upsetting his master if he was not careful.

Ten minutes later,

Amid the trembling looks of the two servants and the impatience of Pedi, Peidi, dressed in military uniform, stepped out of his private tent before dawn... Seeing this, the soldiers who were eating around the iron pot immediately filled a bowl of broth and brought it over.

Despite his terrible mood, Pedi still needed a 'genuine' smile in front of the soldiers, who needed more encouragement than he did, and he took the broth and walked to the campfire where his soldiers were sitting.

...

The soldiers did not sit with Pedi all the time, they returned to their posts after eating their food, and soon Pedi was left alone by the warm campfire, and he sat alone until the day was completely light, and he looked at the gloomy dark clouds in the sky, and a feeling of annoyance grew in his heart.

"My lord, it seems that you are in a bad mood. Tang Wright quietly appeared at Pei Di's side, "The surrounding holy power is becoming extremely unstable because of your mood. ”

"I'm very nice. The words seemed to come out of Pedy's nose, and with that, he threw the wooden bowl of soup into the baggage box next to him.

"Maybe the news I've brought will make you feel better. As he spoke, Don Wright took out a black envelope with magical runes from his bosom, expertly uncovering the envelope and taking out the contents and handing it to Pedi.

"Good news, message from the Combined Fleet?" In Pedi's heart, the entire Kru Territory battlefield may be the only one that can bring him good news.

"The Navy likes to put off a war until the last minute, so if you need news from the Combined Fleet, you may have to wait a while. Don Wright said as Pedi flipped through the letters.

"Oh my God. Pedi held the letter in both hands, his face was both excited and a little incredulous, and then he raised his head and looked directly at Don Wright and said, "Tell me, is this true?"

There are two pieces of information that Don Wright brought, and it can be seen from the handwriting that they were written down by different people...

The letter on the first page is heavily folded and markedly folded, and it is recorded that Fort Byan had fallen on the morning of the 29th by Sir Fred's Seventh Mixed Legion;

The second piece of information, on the other hand, is new and very well written, and it records the victory of the Battle of the Gula Mountain Pass in the early hours of this morning, and the fact that the Orc Tenth Banner Regiment moved to the Dallas Mountains northeast of the Garmic Prairie at one o'clock in the evening after being captured by Earl Bane in the southern entrance passage.

In addition, the 11th and 15th Banner Regiments of the main force of the orcs also abandoned the passage of the Gula Mountains that had not been attacked for a long time due to the fall of Fort Bien and the approach of the main army of Pedi, and retreated in the direction of Fort Bien.

Two exciting and unexpected pieces of information, aren't they?

At least Pedi was so excited that he even suspected it was fake, but he knew that Don Wright wasn't joking.

After half a burst of excitement, Pedi asked, "Where is the Eighth Combined Legion now?"

"I think they're probably still in the Gula Mountains. Don Wright looked at Pedi and said in a very low voice.

"Viscount Biber should have his troops reinforce Beenburg. Pedi's happy face suddenly closed, "Could it be that the victory has made our Viscount forget the importance of Beenburg to the current situation of the battle?"

"Regarding the issue of Viscount Biber, I need to report it separately. Don Wright was a little hesitant, he stared at Pedi for nearly five seconds before he said, "Viscount Biber has been killed in the Battle of the Gula Mountains, he..."

"Wait!" Pedi looked at Don Wright in disbelief, "You said Viscount Biber had died in battle?"

"Yes, we've confirmed it repeatedly. "Don Lai nodded," he died in the blocking battle of the eastern passage of the Gula Mountains... I'm not going to joke about that, sir. ”

Pedi had an unbelievable look on his face, and the unexpected news shocked him even more than the two pieces of information just now.

Viscount Biber's death in battle was not a trivial matter for the Crewe Lord, he was not only the commander of the Eighth Combined Legion of the Provisional Formation, but more importantly, he was the Grand Lord of the Harrens region, and his prestige in the entire Crewe Territory could even surpass that of Pedi.

Therefore, when Peidi heard the news, he subconsciously couldn't believe it, and he thought for nearly five minutes before he said: "I need to know the details of the battle of the Gula Mountains, the more detailed the better... Also, I need a statement to explain to the Donna family, and I'll do it myself. ”

"Understood. ”

"Also, immediately inform the Provisional Eighth Combined Regiment to move in the direction of Fort Biron, so that Earl... No, tell Count Bane to take his place as Viscount Beybirt temporarily... The hoplite cavalry corps I gave him was not used as a guard of honor. Pedi struggled to calm himself down, "Gather my commanders at once... Call them all in, I need to have an impromptu meeting. ”

Pedi's words were a little messy, but his thoughts were clear.

Don Wright jotted down Pedy's requests one by one, and finally he bowed down and said, "Viscount Biber will get your order in an hour at the latest... However, my lordship, before you convene a meeting, I suggest that you meet Sir Geerbwick Donner alone, for he has the right to be the first to know the truth, both as the eldest son of Viscount Bieber, and as the current Commander of the Ninth Legion. ”

"Well... Thanks for the reminder, nice advice. "Well, then, the meeting will be postponed for two hours, and Sir Geercock will be called first." ”

...

Twenty minutes later, Sir Geerbock, who was leading the soldiers in their morning exercises, appeared in front of Pedi.

Sir Geerbock was a little surprised by Pedy's solitary summons, but more of a surprise, but when he learned the reason for Pedy's summoning him, he stood still.

"My lord, how could my father, as the commander of the entire Combined Legion, die in battle on the premise of victory? I cannot accept this factβ€”" Sir Geercock was not a fool, and he expressed his opinion tactfully.

"Viscount Biber is our hero, and the entire Kru Realm will mourn his death in battle, and his deeds will spread to every corner of the Crewe Territory and the Empire. Pedi spoke sincerely.

Geerbck shook his head, "Father doesn't like to be a hero... I'm sorry, my lord, I meanβ€”" He realized that he might have said the wrong thing, and immediately changed the subject: "I have the right to know what happened to my father before and after his death..."

Pedy raised his eyebrows, his right hand gently tugging at the armor on his waist, "Of course, I can assure you that all the officers of the Eighth Combined Legion, including Earl Bane and Earl, will answer all your questions... But that's after we've defeated the orcs once and for all. ”

"But..."

"We're going to be victorious soon, aren't we? ”

"I see... I'll keep my rights, my lord. Jabcock straightened up suddenly, and it dawned on him that he represented the entire Harrence Collar at this moment.

...

Pedi and Geerbwick didn't meet for more than half an hour,

When Geerbwick left, Pedi immediately summoned his magician retinue Cowlil, who told his retinue the news of Viscount Biber's death, and said, "Our troops need heroes, and the empire needs heroes even more, and I think Viscount Bibiel meets the conditions for all heroes to have." ”

Cowlier didn't have much emotional turmoil about Viscount Bibiel's death, and when he heard Pedi's arrangement, he immediately said: "Soon, the deeds of Viscount Biber will spread throughout the army of Crewe, and soon even His Majesty the Emperor will know that there is such a hero in the Empire." ”

Pedi nodded...

What he was most satisfied with about Collier was that he was able to take any orders he gave without hesitation.

Half an hour later,

When the nearly 40,000-strong army received the order to move out, Pedi and his commanders convened a brief military meeting.

Oct. 2 at two p.m.,

Pedi led the main force of Kru to the Gula Mountain Pass.

At three o'clock in the afternoon of the same day, the Eighth Combined Legion, under the leadership of Count Bane, encountered the main force of the Orc Expeditionary Force in the southern plains of Fort Byan, and after an hour of fighting between the two sides, the Orc Expeditionary Force quickly withdrew from the eastern passage of Fort Biron, in the direction of Balan.

The Earl of Bane did not pursue, and he led the provisional Eighth Combined Regiment into Fort Biron.

On the morning of October 3, Crewe led the Eleventh Regiment toward the Dallas Mountains and drove the Orc Tenth Banner into the depths of the jungle.

In the afternoon, as the main army of Pedi marched to the southern plains of Beenburg, an encrypted letter from the Empire disrupted his original plan. ()
