Chapter 11 The Trap of the Swamp Depression

"Hmm... Sicily awoke from her bed and sat up in pain.

"Your Majesty, your towel... "Sit on the edge of the bed and serve the maid with hot towels in both hands.

"Thank you... She took the towel and gently applied it to her face, then lay flat on the bed again, stretching her limbs out.

"Your Majesty, do you need to take a break? You've been sneaking for days in a row, so please take care of your body even if you're fighting the Minami Country. The maid said worriedly.

"That's not going to work, the enemy has already discovered the leak of information, and the doppelganger I planted in the team has also been removed, and the other party will be more cautious after that, and the other party has detected Eleanor's location, I must inform them as soon as possible. Sicily said, ripping off the towel covering her head and tossing it aside.

"Understood, then Your Majesty, please be careful. The maid picked up the towel she had discarded from the bedside and saluted to Sicilia.

"I went. Sicily closed her eyes again, and the lilac magic slowly spread from her body to the entire bedroom. As if she were a sleeping beauty, she fell into a deep sleep again under the influence of magic......

At the foot of the central mountain range of Minami Country, sensing the enemy's reconnaissance force, Eleanor immediately ordered the troops to dismantle the camp and begin to move towards the deep forest on the west side in order to find a more secluded garrison.

You can see the huge army slowly moving through the swampy depression, and the heavy beast carts are moving slowly due to the soft terrain.

"Lord Eleanor, we have sent a reconnaissance force to spot a large number of enemies marching towards us at the entrance to the mountain pathway. ”

"It came so quickly ... Eleanor frowned.

"Judging from the current situation, I am afraid that it will not be long before the other party will encounter us. ”

"Is the ability to march above us? ”

"According to the reconnaissance team, the vehicles of the opposing army appear to have been optimized for snow and swamps, and most of them are similar to sliding sleds. ”

"Well, this is the enemy's territory, and they know the terrain better, but it's not so good for us. Eleanor noticed that the huge beast carts used by the team to transport supplies and siege the city were moving slowly through the mud.

"The encounter will be much sooner than expected, so we have to be ready for it now. Iska said.

"We can't fight the enemy here, once our beast cart troops lose their mobility, they will only be live targets in front of the enemy's fast-moving troops. Eleanor leaned out of the window and could see that most of the wheels were embedded in the dirt due to the weight of the beast cart, and the dragon dragging the carriage was constantly slipping under his feet due to the slippery mud.

"The other side just saw that we had to cross this depression before attacking at this time, right?" Gardia opened the car door, and then rolled over and jumped from the car to the roof.

"Gardia, what are you going to do?"

"Since the other side is rushing towards here with a large army, it is better to let the highly mobile troops follow me to launch a counterattack! She said, spreading her wings quickly.

"Wait a minute, how can I let you go alone... Eleanor clinged to the frame of the car, "I am the commander of the army, this time should let me go... ”

"You've said that you're the commander in chief of the army. Do your duty as commander-in-chief!!, find a way to get these beast carts out of this place. ”

"But... ”

"Gardia is right, before the beast cart escapes, the army's combat strength will be greatly damaged, if the war starts at this time, we will be in a disadvantageous state, let her lead the troops to drag the enemy. Iskar was also in line with Gardia's views.

"Well, be careful, then. Eleanor beckoned the lieutenant to their car.

"Lord Eleanor, please instruct. The other party rode a two-legged earth dragon and quickly came to Eleanor.

"Gather the hussar forces at once, and follow her. Eleanor set her eyes on Gardia, "Strike at the attacking enemy!"

"Yes, my subordinates will do it. ”

The adjutant tugged at the reins, and with the roar of the earth dragon, he galloped towards the mighty procession, and in a few minutes, the light cavalry in a neat line gathered in front of the car.

"Try to harass and attack as much as possible, slow down the pace of the opponent's march, and don't easily break into the enemy's formation, understand?" Eleanor ordered earnestly. "As soon as the large army leaves the swamp area, I will give a signal that you will retreat immediately, understand?"

"Yes, my subordinates understand. ”

"Gardia, then I'll leave everything to you. ”

"Well, I know. Listening to Eleanor's instructions, Gardia leaped straight into the air from the roof of the car, and as the brilliant six wings spread out in the mist, the golden light was like a new sun.

"Follow me!" Gardia raised her hand, and the mighty light cavalry followed her and disappeared into the mist......
