On June 7,

The battle for the Kanya Pass continued.

This time, Prince Nuliv placed all his remaining 40,000 troops around the southern base of the Kanya Pass, and took advantage of the superiority in strength to surround the Pedi regiment in the middle.

But it was only around, and there was no rush to attack.

In Kebot's words: almost half of the Imperial army is stationed here, and with the size of the garrison walled city, it is impossible to hoard a large amount of logistical supplies, so we only need to surround it for a few days, and the Imperial garrison in the walled city will definitely come out and come out on their own.

Prince Nuliv listened to this, but he not only had to surround it, but also completely deal with the imperial army stationed here in the shortest possible time.

And Kebot was well aware of the intention of paying the prince for his efforts, so he said after the troops had surrounded the Canya Pass: "Give me three thousand men, and I promise that in a day there will be no more imperial troops outside the Great Forest of Britt." ”

"Hmph!" Hemai said coldly: "Your joke should be left to your woman, this is not a place for jokes, yesterday, we all 20,000 people returned in vain!"

Kebot immediately shot back: "Patriarch Hemai, don't think that others are joking just because you can't do it, the beast god will laugh at your ignorance!"

"Damn Southerners, you don't deserve to mention the Beast God!" Hemai said, pointing to Kebot's nose.

"Nairu, give him three thousand!" said Prince Nuliv suddenly.

"Your Excellency?" said Hemai, looking at Prince Nulifu in surprise.

"Do you need me to repeat?"

Naru immediately bowed down and said, "Kebot... Sir, you'll get this unit in half an hour!"

Half an hour later,

Kebot received three thousand soldiers as Nairu had said, and Prince Nuliv sent his personal guard captain Tyco as Kebot's deputy,

At one o'clock in the afternoon, the troops were drawn,

Target, Brett Forest, twenty miles to the east.

Early the next morning,

The scouts sent back the news that the Imperial garrison in the Britt Forest had been defeated, and that Prince Nuliv had received the news and immediately recalled Kebot,

"You should know why I'm calling you. "Prince Nulifu is not concerned with the Brett Forest.

"Understood, now that the Eastern Passage has been opened, do you want to directly wave the Koren Fortress and take advantage of the situation!"

"Do you think it's possible?" asked Prince Nuliv again.

Kebot thought for a while and said: "You should know that the garrison of the Britt Forest is being repulsed, not annihilated, and it is very likely that they will retreat to the fortress of Koren, so that the current garrison will be first, and there will be no way to capture it in a short time!"

Prince Nuliv immediately said: "But there is a chance, isn't it? The current Koren Fortress is an empty city, even if there are enough defenders, but there are not enough armaments and materials, so the only way for them to defend the city is to stand on the city wall and fight with us!"

"If we attack, we will suffer heavy losses!" said Kebot, after bowing his head and thinking for a while, "Give me another three thousand men, and in a day, the Imperial garrison on Roput Mountain will cease to exist!"

"Oh?" said Prince Nulif.

"But I need Prince Meru with me, he needs some military merit!"

"Well?" said the prince with a question from his nose, and after thinking for a few minutes, "you will get these three thousand." ”

"Thank you, Your Highness. Kebot had an exaggerated smile on his face.

...

Outside the Kanya Pass, the headquarters of the Imperial garrison of the Walled City,

Pei Di stared at the deployment of the enemy's and our forces planned by the staff group on the combat map, and his face was a little worried, "The troop supplies arrived last night." ”

"We've arrived at the walled city, and as you expected, this group of barbarians is ready to surround us!" the Knight of Alfred said not a compliment, "but they would never have thought that under the walled city, we had already built a granary in advance!"

"But if it's too long, it's still not good for us, and the battle reports from the Crane Territory show that an army of 50,000 orcs is heading here!" said Aemond cautiously, pointing his finger across the map of Koren Fortress and the town of Banda.

"Although the Imperial Military Department is sometimes stupid, they are not going to make a mistake at such a time, so it is impossible for the orc army to pass through Bandar Town smoothly, at least, there will be no problem in the short term. "Knight Alfred needs to try to perform in front of Pedi as much as possible, after all, he is no longer able to contribute to the fight with a broken arm.

Andy was dressed in heavy armor, and he had no interest in the matters discussed by the staff committee or the conversation between Pedi and the adjutant, he stared at the glaring red markings on the map, and pointed his finger and said, "My dear cousin, I suppose you must have some plan, right?"

"Oh, why do you say that?" said Pedy, smiling.

"If you don't have any plans, you're going to leave yourself here and surrounded by barbarians?" Andy was also laughing, "Don't worry, I'm not interested in your plans, but what I want to know is when we'll be able to get out of here and have a real showdown with the barbarians." ”

The officers of the surrounding staff groups all subconsciously withdrew a step when the two were talking, and their eyes fell on Pei Di from time to time, waiting for his answer,

In fact, these imperial elites have long guessed that Pedi has other plans,

After all, everything in the past two days was too weird, as if their commander could know all the information about the barbarian army's troop transfer in advance.

"The place you should be staying right now is the front line of defense, and the soldiers need to see their commander. Pedi didn't answer his cousin's question.

"Oh, I'm sorry, sir!" Andy said with an exaggerated military salute before exiting headquarters.

Pedi watched Andy leave, and then said to the officers of the staff beside him, "Gentlemen, I need you to simulate how long we can hold out if the enemy forces attack our defenses, remember, I need specific time." ”

"The report will be on your desk in two hours!" Aemond took the order, and while Sir Ike was gone, he temporarily placed the staff in charge.

...

At eight o'clock in the evening,

Today's weather is relatively clear,

Occasionally, moonlight shines on the white earth.

At this moment, in the camp of the Imperial Garrison on Mount Roput, a cat-and-mouse show is being staged:

Under the cover of night, the 3,000 troops of the Balu Kingdom attacked the imperial garrison camp from both flanks in two ways, and the soldiers of the imperial defenders seemed to be a little caught off guard in the face of the sudden attack, and retreated to Roput Mountain under the leadership of Hades, and the three brigades of barbarian soldiers chased after them under the leadership of their respective commanders.

Half an hour later,

After ten minutes of fierce fighting, a group of Imperial soldiers suddenly appeared in the rear of the barbarian army, surrounding the entire barbarian army in a narrow mountain stream.

After an hour of bloody battle,

The three brigades of barbarian soldiers were all wiped out!

After the battle, Hades had his lieutenant clear the battlefield while he searched for the stray fish, and he himself walked behind a gloomy mountain wall with two of his most trusted retinue.

"Make sure you don't leave alive!" a deep voice came from the darkness.

"Don't worry, my people are already in the perimeter, not even a mouse can escape!" Hades stopped when he heard this.

"Get your people to change into their clothes and remember to dress up like a little bit. At this point, something was thrown out of the darkness, and Hades caught it steadily, and when he looked at it, it was a metal buckle, but half of it was missing,

At this time, I only heard a voice in the darkness again, "Tomorrow at noon, with this thing, my people will wait for you under a huge hemlock tree a mile away from your camp, and when you see someone, give him what you have in hand, and he will arrange the next things!"

"When?" Hades asked hurriedly.

But no one answered him, so Hades asked again and made sure that no one was there before leaving.

...

June 8 at two p.m.,

Prince Nuliv received a letter from the orcs, urging him to end the war in the area of the fortress of Koren as soon as possible and support the town of Banda as quickly as possible, and at the same time, there was a lot of promises to capture the town of Banda,

This letter made Prince Nuliv anxiously walk back and forth in his camp, and it was at this time that he received the news of victory brought back by the Kebot from Mount Roput, and after receiving this information, His Royal Highness the Prince of Calmness could not help but shout: "Victory in this war is ours. ”

Half an hour later,

The 3,000 troops who had attacked Mount Roput returned triumphantly, but only 2,000 returned, and the appearance was somewhat miserable, in the words of the messengers: almost every one of them was infected with blood, as if they had come out of a pool of blood.

Prince Nuliv didn't pay any attention to what happened to these soldiers, and in his eyes, as long as he could destroy the imperial garrison on Mount Roput, it didn't matter if all three thousand people died.

His Royal Highness didn't even care about the triumphant return of Kebot,

There is only one question in his mind now,

That is, to put an end to this kind of fighting in the area of the Koren fortress as soon as possible.

And now, victory is in sight.

Therefore, the 'commendation' received by the two thousand soldiers who returned triumphantly was just one sentence: repair in place and wait for the follow-up order.

And Prince Nuliv was already preparing his troops for war when he received the news from Kebot, and when the exact news came, he immediately ordered his troops to be deployed.

Target, Fortress of Cologne.
