"Clear skies...... Maybe it's going to be covered with war clouds soon, right? ”

As the sun set and the sky gradually darkened, Hathaway stood on the walls of Yamaguchi Castle with her hands on the battlements, leisurely looking at the dim sky.

Three days ago, after that so-called celebration feast, Leonardo. Beirut approached Hathaway alone.

For the victory achieved by the Cordillera city defense army, it is indeed a slap in the face of some people...... With Leonardo. Beirut's words said that Hathaway had given the emperor a long face, so His Majesty was very happy, so he gave her the city of Lancais. But with Barthes. In Willy's words, although Hathaway is now favored by His Majesty the Emperor, she is only using her, because she offended the conservatives in the military department, and then offended those lords, large and small.

However, Fivinville XVIII had a good conscience, and immediately after the Battle of Salem, Hathaway was transferred to Lanchees, and Hathaway also used the excuse of Lev. Carl Stey was about to take action against the Cordillera and excused himself from the next battle, otherwise he would really be calculated by those people in the military department - the magic guns have already attracted the attention of many people, even Leonardo. Beirut also made hints in a roundabout way.

For this, Hathaway had already planned.

It can be discussed, but it has to be talked about with real money, and she sued Leonardo, if there is really sincerity. The Cordillera Collar could consider selling a batch of firearms, but the manufacturing technology was absolutely not for sale. Leonardo. Beirut returns to Heidelberg to resume her life, while Hathaway frees up her hands and comes to Yamaguchi, where she wants to deal with Lev. Karstair's imminent threat.

It is said that Brinia's troops had been mobilized before she returned, so before she returned, she had already sent the scouts out. Karl's intelligence agency was also running at high speed. Feed back Briennia's situation to her.

"Your Excellency. The enemy forces have already moved, and the large army will arrive at the mountain pass this evening. A scout on horseback jumped off his horse outside the city, fell to his knees on one leg, and reported to Hathaway in a slightly alarmed voice.

"Huh. They came pretty quickly. It's good to do. Let's go into town and rest. Hathaway didn't blame the scout.

This time the fight. Except for some of the original city defense troops of Yamaguchi Castle, she did not gather other city defense troops...... Some of the city defense troops were stationed in various places, while there were also some city defense troops. At this time, he was resting in Lancastes. Therefore, she mobilized convoys drawn from various collective farms like this one.

Although those people are escorts, they have been systematically trained, and this time it can be regarded as a combat exercise, because in Hathaway's plan, they are the source of reserves, and now is the time to test whether this plan is feasible.

The scout just now was also from the farm guard, and it was normal that she hadn't gone through a big battle formation, so she wasn't angry, after experiencing the Battle of Lancastes City and the Battle of Salem, she really didn't have the menacing Brinian army in her eyes, but for those escorts, it would be a consideration of blood and fire.

"My lord, Karstair's army is more than 15,000 men, including a considerable number of cavalry and crossbowmen, do you really think that these peasants, who have temporarily armed up swords and guns, can withstand this army?" Bi Lin. Hegel appeared behind her, frowning and asked.

"Don't underestimate them. Since the day of its establishment, the escort team has been trained by the regular army with real swords and guns, and if they are not useful, then the previous efforts and efforts are not in vain? Besides, they fought not only for the good and honor of my lord, but also for their own loved ones. It is I who have given them a stable life, no longer having to live the life of refugees who are displaced and have no food to eat, they are defending their own interests. Hathaway said confidently.

Bi Lin. Hegel nodded slightly: "I thought I could sleep well tonight, but I didn't expect those guys to be so impatient." ”

"How's our army massing?" Hathaway asked.

"2,000 infantry, 1,000 archers, and 500 grenadiers, there is no problem with the number of arrows, bombs, and incendiary bombs, and I am worried about ......."

"Bi Lin, just let the enemy do what you are worried about, we don't have that time, let the troops wait for military orders in the city." Hathaway said.

"That...... There is no need to reassure them, so that their hearts will not fluctuate. "Bilin. Hegel asked.

"There's no need, the first time you participate in the battle, the appeasement effect is not great, you have to let them see the dawn of victory." Hathaway said lightly, keeping her eyes fixed on the sky ahead.

"Yes." Bi Lin. Hegel reluctantly agreed, and turned away.

Things have reached this point, and they want to evaluate the military situation and encourage the local spirit like the world, and these practices have long lost their meaning, and defending their relatives is their biggest reason. Hathaway had no illusions that this army would be able to burst into perverted combat power all at once, and most importantly, she didn't take the Brinian army seriously. In fact, on the day she returned, after inspecting the geography and climate of this area, she already had a strategy for the enemy, and she was waiting to implement it.

Ever since the Brienian army began to assemble, Hathaway had been keeping an eye on their movements, and as she expected, the Briennian army did not dare to attack the city directly, and when they arrived in the evening, they camped in a plain far from the mountain pass.

Obviously, the other party also knew about the build-up of troops in the Cordillera territory, so when the army was encamped, not only did they send a team of scouts to monitor the movements of Yamaguchi City, but also several troops were stationed on the high ground in front of the camp to prevent the Cordillera army's sneak attack.

Time passed quickly, the noisy camp gradually quieted down, and most of the troops and scouts had returned to the camp to rest.

In late spring, the air already brings a bit of early summer warmth. There was no blue moon or stars in the dark night sky, only a few sparse candles lit in the barracks. Distant mountains, near trees, jungles, and mounds present various colors of inky black, dark black, light black, and light black in this dark night.

On the night of the murder in the dark moon, when most people were asleep, a force of only a hundred people was busy in the area between the Brinian army and Yamaguchi City, and the scouts who were sent to monitor the movement of Yamaguchi City did not react, so they were cleaned up by this force, and then these people dug a pit several miles away from the Briennia military camp, and inserted bamboo tubes in it, and they opened the bamboo tubes and immediately retreated, and streams of white smoke poured out of the bamboo tubes......

Almost at the same time, at the mountain pass, Hathaway led dozens of magic apprentices, and had already set up a magic array, and when the smoke poured out, this magic array also activated at the same time, and a faint wave of magic power rippled around, and a strong wind 'whirred' forward, endlessly.

"My lord, is this all right?" Bi Lin. Hegel asked, surprised.

"How hard do you think it is?"

Hathaway smiled: "Immediately gather the soldiers and set off, we are going to fight." ”

Fight?

The soldiers looked at their commander and the lord in front of them with some confusion, after they were gathered, they had not followed, and they thought that they were to deal with the night attack of the enemy army, how could they go to war at this time?

"Warriors, now I will take you and you to attack the enemy army at night, and the victory or defeat depends on tonight!" Hathaway gave a loud order to the soldiers.

There was no exciting encouragement, no rhetoric about death, Hathaway only gave a brief order, and rode to the front of the group, and in silence the soldiers slowly followed, everyone had no bottom in their hearts, how could the so-called night attack be so easy to succeed. However, with the lord leading the way, the soldiers had some spiritual comfort.

In the darkness of the night, Hathaway and his army marched at a rapid pace, and in the camp of the Brinian army, the smoke diluted by the night wind was slowly filling the camp with the night wind.

This is specially made by Hathaway.

In Hathaway's fairy garden, there is a plant that is not found in this world - peppers.

This kind of chili pepper is also a Chaotian pepper seed specially purchased from Sichuan Province before Hathaway's rebirth, which is used to prepare hot pot seasoning, which is absolutely refreshing. Later, inspired by the incendiary bombs, she planted a large number of Chaotian peppers, and promoted them in her territory, preparing to use them to make zuò tear gas bombs, and the production of zuò was quite successful.

It's just that this weapon didn't come in handy on the battlefield, and she turned to the paralyzing potion. Paralysis is not difficult to make, the key is how to use it, and how to make it work a huge effect. If it was in the form of an ordinary potion, it would not be suitable for battlefield use, and later she thought of using it in the form of smoke.

In the Cordillera territory, there is a kind of thick bamboo, the texture is very tight, put paralyzing potions and nebulizers in it, and then seal the two ends, smoke will be generated inside, and when used, the plug can be opened - Hathaway even invented a gas mask to save her own people from being tricked.

Before this battle, she had surveyed the terrain around the mountain pass and decided to attack with paralyzing poisonous smoke.

On the one hand, she was sure that it was impossible for the enemy army to camp next to the mountain pass city, which was tantamount to sending her camp to the arrows of the defenders, and at the same time, it was impossible to place it in the narrow mountain pass, so it could only be in the plain area in front of the mountain pass, and the whole mountain pass was like a smoke pipe, as long as the smoke was blown out, it could quickly spread across the plain, even if only half of the people lost their combat effectiveness, it was enough to collapse the entire army.
