vs 58 Backstabbing (5)

In the vicinity of the Covey Woodlands, under the endless darkness of the night, there is a continuous stream of fine snow, which has been falling since the beginning of November, and there is no intention of stopping.

Temperatures are getting colder.

The Imperial Command in the Cove Woodland Defense Area has set up a cold protection office in the logistics office to cope with the increasingly severe cold weather.

At two o'clock in the morning, Pedi and his servant Eden were patrolling the front line on horseback.

It was now three hours after the end of the Enlargement Meeting, and for the first three hours, Sir Bowenright and Pedi were inseparable, and the old Sir was persuading Pedi to follow the advice of Knight Danry-Forren to launch a raid on the orc camp.

But Pedy never replied positively to Sir Bowenright, and the old Sir did not give up until half an hour ago.

While patrolling the front lines, Pedy's mind always had the words of old sir's persuasion.

To be honest, if Peidi hadn't had the experience of the previous life, he might have impulsively agreed... After all, Knight Danri's suggestion is really a good solution.

But what Pedi wants is the stability of the battle, especially after the loss of Twak City, he needs absolute control of the battle situation, and victory is not so important to him!

...

The vicinity of the Covey woodland area has been unusually quiet these nights.

In the dark night, both the orc camp and the Imperial Defense Zone were trying to keep quiet, and even the patrol soldiers on both sides tried to exercise restraint when encountered.

"Step, da"

"Step, da"

The sound of horses galloping was unusually harsh in this quiet environment, and the soldiers who were resting behind the sandbags were extremely sensitive to this sound, and they equipped their weapons at great speed, and then looked in the direction where the sound came from.

At this moment, Pei Di had already inspected the place where the central defense line and the western defense line met, and when the sound of the war horse galloping sounded, he subconsciously followed the prestige... The voice came from the command post line of defense!

In the distance, several knights in armor galloped at breakneck speed toward Pedi's location in the flickering firelight.

"Your Excellency, it's a scout knight from the MIA, and Baron Danmen is among them. ”

When the knights were close enough to see what they could see, Eden reminded his master.

Pedi nodded and took control of the warhorse.

Soon, a wave of heat and cold swept across Pedy's cheeks at the same time, and Baron Danmen and his men and his knights arrived at Pedi.

"Your Excellency. The people saluted on horseback.

"What's going on?" Pedi asked directly.

"Not good news. Baron Danmen had a serious expression on his cheeks under his thick yarke hat, and after the knight behind him led the nearby soldiers away, he whispered, "The Orc Seventeenth Banner Regiment and the Second Rebel Legion in Twaka City set out from the north of Twak City five hours ago, and their destination is most likely to go around our rear and flank the Corvey Woodland Line!"

Pei Di's face also changed slightly, and he asked, "Is the news accurate?"

"Exactly, all three waves of my scouts sent back the same message using magic. Baron Danmen's tone was very affirmative.

"Whew"

A long white breath came out of Pedi's mouth, and he struggled to calm the heart that was suddenly beating violently in his chest, while his mind quickly thought about what to do.

The encirclement of nearly 100,000 troops is no small matter... This force can easily crush Pedi and his three legions, and the only way to break the encirclement is to attack one of them with one click before the encirclement is complete.

But now, he simply does not have enough troops to accomplish such a thing.

Suddenly, Pedy's eyes lit up,

"Shhhh

The war horse under Pedi's crotch moved in the direction of the orc camp under the inertia of Pedi's pulling the reins, and Pedi's eyes also followed the movement of the war horse, and he looked at the orc camp in the distance... His mind popped into the suggestion that Knight Danri Forren had made a few hours earlier.

"What time is it?" asked Pedi, glaring at his servant.

"It's almost three o'clock. Eden was startled, and his voice trembled as he answered.

Three?

Pedi cursed in his heart, even if he started mobilizing the army now, there was no way to launch a surprise attack before dawn.

It's too late!

Tomorrow night?

At that time, it only took less than half a day for the orc reinforcements to come over!

What to do?

Forced raid?

But there is only one chance, and once you fail, there is no turning back.

Pedi was faced with a choice.

The choice came suddenly, and in the cold temperature below zero, a trace of cold sweat began to break out on Pedi's forehead.

"Da, da"

"Da, da"

At this time, the sound of a war horse galloping came from the direction of the command post.

Everyone looked at it subconsciously.

It was six or seven cavalrymen in standard armor, and in front of them was a thin female knight.

The light of the fire in their hands was dim, and it was evident that they had been running so far that the oil on the torches was about to run out.

The team is getting closer...

"It's Knight Syra, how did she end up here. Baron Danmen guessed the identity of the person who had come.

Pedi frowned, and a bad premonition began to ferment in his heart, and he sent the Knight of Syra to attack Fort Tulbuk, but not just for her to attack Fort Tulbuk!

"Go and tell Sir Bowenwright that I have agreed to his plan, and let him prepare first. Pei Di was worried about the information from Baron Danmen just now, and he stared at Hu Cong Eden, "You go now, go as fast as you can." ”

Young Eden could feel the solemnity and seriousness of the atmosphere, and as soon as he received the order, he pulled his horse's head and galloped towards the command post of the Western Defense Zone, and less than ten seconds after he left, Knight Syrah and several of his retinue had already reached the outside of the knights' cordon.

"Just let Knight Syra in. Pedi commanded loudly.

The two knights, who were about to stop them, immediately retreated to both sides.

"Your Excellency. "Knight Sila takes off his helmet,

"Your Excellency. Wren, who was next to him, also took off his helmet.

Pedi was not in the mood to reminisce now, his gaze swept over Wren and then stared at Knight Syra and asked, "What's going on?"

"I'm very sorry, sir. "Three nights ago, Sir Andy closed the gates of the city after our routine patrol, and refused me and my men to enter the castle again, after a routine patrol, before destroying all means of communication between us and the command post. ”

"Three days ago?" Pedi was stunned.

"Yes, three days ago. Sira nodded, and then asked, "Is it true that when the command post was just now, the officers were discussing the fall of Twak City?"

Peddy obviously didn't want to bring it up, and he whispered, "Yes, the current affairs magic newsletter from last night. ”

Sira thought for a few seconds and said, "But three days ago, when my Sir Andy asked us to leave, he said that Twak City had fallen!"

"Are you sure?" said Baron Danmen's voice as if he wanted to be angry.

Knight Sira paused for a few seconds to recall, and then said in an affirmative tone: "I'm sure Sir Andy also told me that if the orcs and rebels want to flank the Corwee Woodland through the northern official roads of Twak City, please don't worry, because his two legions of light cavalry have been waiting in the grasslands west of Bolenburg for a long time!"

"Huh?" Pei Di and Baron Danmen glanced at each other, both seeing shock in each other's eyes.

"Knight Silla. Baron Danmen couldn't help but ask, "Are you sure Sir Andy said these words to you three days ago?" ”

"Of course, Wren can testify. ”

"Yes, I was there. Wren hurriedly replied.
