The second offensive and defensive battle of the temporary garrison camp next to the outpost had just ended. ▲-八▲-八▲-Read▲-Book,.◇.o≧

"Sergeant Major, extinguish fires and save people, fill empty seats."

"Smith, concentrate your hands and shoot at the enemy forces attacking the outpost to cover Simon's retreat."

"Lusignan, observe whether there are any enemy ambush traps outside the camp, and the sentry cavalry is ready to go out of the camp at any time to attack the rear of the enemy army, so that they cannot concentrate on attacking the outpost." In the garrison camp, Art stood on the arrow tower and watched the enemy troops turning to attack the outpost, while deploying soldiers to prepare for battle.

In the hour since the sun rose in the sky, the "Dean Legion", which had been stirred up by the huge reward of battle, relied on the numerical superiority to carry out two fierce sieges on the walls of the camp on all sides.

In the first offensive and defensive battle, Yate stood on the arrow tower and held a bow to command, and more than 30 elite soldiers were distributed on all sides, and under the desperate defense of the camp soldiers and the diffuse support of the arrows of the outpost gōngnǔ, the attacking enemy left seven or eight corpses and dragged the wounded soldiers back from the wall.

In the second attack, the enemy changed their tactics, and instead of rushing to the wall, they first launched a round of fire attack on the temporary camp, and when hundreds of flaming arrows flew into the camp and set fire to the tent and the wooden wall arrow tower, the enemy army rushed up in a swarm. The defenders who were still fighting the fire at the previous moment had to give up the fire and withdraw to the walled wall to defend against enemy attacks, and for a while, the temporary camp was full of flames and killings, and the first lúngōng hit the central commander of Yate had to personally climb the walled wall to participate in the defensive battle.

However, just when the attackers and defenders were at a stalemate across a wooden wall, the defenders of the outpost, who had been actively defending, suddenly opened the wooden door, and Simon and Benjamin led a dozen outpost defenders (including some elite caravan guards who stayed behind} to cut down seven or eight enemy troops who were watching and guarding, and then rushed towards the enemy soldiers attacking the temporary camp. The attack of the defenders of the outpost broke the stalemate between the attacking and defending sides, and the disturbed "Dean Legion" had to withdraw some of the soldiers to rescue the rear position, so that there was a gap in the fortification, and the defenders of the camp successfully repelled the enemy's second attack, and the enemy left behind a dozen corpses and howling wounded soldiers before retreating.

Seeing that the enemy army had failed to attack the fortification, Simon dragged a few battle-wounded soldiers back to the outpost under the cover of the arrows of Smith's gōngnǔ team, and the "Dean Legion" led by several mercenary captains also quickly turned their attention to the outpost.

"Lord Dean, please bring someone to guard against the enemy in the camp in the afternoon, we must take people to level that outpost first, otherwise we will not be able to attack the camp with peace of mind." The mercenary captain wiped the blood on his face and said to Dean, the "legion commander" who was "supervising the battle" in the back. (5) ∞ eight (5) ∞ eight (5) ∞ read (5) ∞ books,.. o≈

Dean has never experienced the flames of war, even in the "national war" with Swabia, he is just a baggage officer hiding in the rear to transport military rations and embezzle military salaries, yesterday's tentative attack has not shocked him, but today's two rounds of desperate onslaught have made him realize that war is never as heroic and ambitious as he thought, and the roar of battle, the wailing of wounded soldiers, and the hideousness of dead corpses all made him feel frightened and panicked.

"Lord Dean? Lord Dean!! The mercenary captain raised his voice to wake Dean out of his mind.

Dean came back to his senses with a shudder and asked, "You, what did you just say?" ”

The captain of the mercenary held back the disdain in his heart, and replied dissatisfiedly: "I said that in the next battle, please lead your troops to guard against the camp defenders from attacking the camp, and I will lead people to level that outpost first, otherwise we will not be able to attack the fortification with peace of mind." ”

"Alright, alright," Dean said in quick succession.

The mercenary captain glanced at Dean and organized several other mercenary teams to return to the camp to repair and prepare to attack the outpost.

"Who's that, come here." Dean casually called one of his own caravan guards.

"A few of you bring someone to guard me against the defenders in the camp."

With that, Dean summoned a few personal guards to mount his horse and run towards the rear, he wanted to be farther away from this murderous hell......

Five miles northwest of the border post, Felix and his two retinue were galloping along the edge of the mountain with twenty recruits under the cover of the shade of the woods.

"Speed up~, we ~ arrive earlier, they will be able to ~ have one more winning power!" Felix led his horse to the front of the group, panting sharply and his chest heaving violently.

From the early morning when the wolf smoke warning was received to the sky in the morning, more than 20 people ran wildly for more than 20 miles in one morning, and these recruits behind them were worthy of being slaves in the labor and mining mines, and they ran all morning without anyone falling behind.

According to Art's prior arrangement, the team lurking in the canyon to the west was tasked with a surprise attack, so they did not take the flat trade route but rushed to the edge of the mountain to help the border fight.

After a little more galloping, the team came to a gentle slope at the edge of the mountain woods with a view of the border outpost.

An attendant pointed to a smoking building on the east side of the gentle slope and exclaimed, "Young master, look, black smoke is still rising from the camp over there!" Lord Art, will they be~"

"Nonsense! They can't be defeated so easily. Felix scolded his entourage, but his eyes were full of anxiety as he looked east.

The three veterans in charge of the recruit team also gathered around Felix, "Young Master Felix, what should we do next?" Did you rush straight to it? ”

Felix rolled his eyes and thought, he was worried that if he rushed out and was discovered by the enemy in advance, the purpose of the surprise attack would not be achieved. And once their own side cannot coordinate the attack from both sides, it is very likely that their two dozen or so people will be entangled and killed by the enemy.

"Don't rush out, the three of you are hiding here with everyone and are on standby at any time, I'll sneak over to check the situation first~"

The garrison camp of Boulder Town in the north.

"What do these bastards want to do, they won't fight, they won't go." Colin stood on the tower and looked at the bandits facing off half a mile north of Boulder.

Since two days ago, this group of bandits of unknown origin has been wandering near Boulder Town, they neither attack the garrison camp of Boulder Town nor leave, once the defenders show signs of attack, this group of guys immediately retreats again, and when the defenders return to the camp, they stick up again.

"These guys were sent to hold us back, and they must be worried that we will send troops to support the southern border." Odo looked coldly at the forty or so bandit-looking guys not far away.

"I don't know how my lord is doing, I haven't heard from them at all in the past few days." Andrew is also concerned about the "main battlefield" in the south, where success or failure is the difference between life and death.

"Okay, let's not think about it too much, the task given to us by the adults is to hold on to Boulder Town, and to defend this place is to share the worries of the adults. Obote, your patrol team is on duty in the afternoon, keep my eyes on the distance, and watch out for those mongrels to make a detour to attack the valley. ”

"Yes!" Obote was ordered to take the vice-captain Benson to look around.

Otto stared at the group of bandits who were planning to set up camp not far away, and said to the two people beside him: "Colin and Andrew, you each choose three smart and reliable soldiers, and I will take you out quietly tonight to attack the enemy camp, even if it is just to kill a few sentry bandits, it can also boost the morale of the soldiers in the camp!" ”

"Since you're here, you're going to have to leave a few arms and legs behind these bastards!"

"Big Chief, since we're all here, why don't we really try it?"

On a large farm a day's walk southwest of the county of Tignats, Redogan and his forty or so bandits had been circling around the farm for five days, and they never approached the fence in the middle of the farm, except when they had just rushed out of the woods and tried to storm the farm.

However, the two dozen or so guards on the farm did not dare to step out of the stone wall of the farm, allowing Redogan to lead the bandits to loot the farmers around the farm and burn the farmers' houses and farm tools.

"I wanted to go in and rob them all, but there were two dozen elite guards inside, and we had less than fifty. In the past few days, we have also grabbed a lot of things from the surrounding area, and we will surround it for another five or six days, and when the news comes from the south, we will retreat. ”

The second leader beside him whispered in Lei Duoan's ear: "But someone from the south said that if we can grab something from the Dean family this time, it will all belong to us, and they will not ask for copper coins~ Now that the garrison of the county town has also gone south, this is a great opportunity~"

The words of the second leader of the bandits once again brought up the courage of Lei Duoan, the Dean family farm, which he didn't even dare to think about in the past, is now like a woman in a tuōguāng coat, those scissors threaten to get close to him, how can this group of bandits endure it~

Redogan's eyes wandered between the farm and the east side, and it took him a long time before he made up his mind, "In this case, in the afternoon you yourself will take a few old brothers to the surrounding outposts to make sure that there are no other armies and enemies in the vicinity, especially the Wincheston Manor, and then we will discuss whether we can try to take this farm at the lowest cost." ”

On a trade road a few miles west of Boulder Towns.

Viscount Pierre, the former chief of the palace guard and now the magistrate of Tignats, personally led eighty county garrisons south along the trade route to stop the "conflict" between the two knights, Yat and Dean. Behind this little guīmóchōngtū, which seems to be just a contradiction between the little knights, there is the shadow of a struggle between two court forces.

Five days ago, there was an order from the palace for Viscount Pierre to personally lead the garrison of the county town to the south to stop the border conflict, but Viscount Pierre obviously did not want to participate in the struggle between the two forces, he only hoped that when he arrived at the border, the two waves of people had already divided the victory and defeat on their own, and no matter who won at that time, it had nothing to do with him, and the two forces would not be offended. It was also because of this selfishness that the county soldiers led by Viscount Pierre spent two full days gathering and preparation, and then it took three days to march to the trade road west of Boulder Town.

Viscount Pierre straddled his horse and watched the two cavalrymen rushing back from the east, and when the cavalry rushed to him, he asked loudly, "Why didn't you bring the garrison of Boulder Town to meet me?"

The cavalry jumped off his horse and replied hurriedly: "My lord, they can't come, that camp in Boulder Town is surrounded by a group of guys of unknown origin, and we see at least fifty or sixty people in the distance."

Viscount Pierre was shocked when he heard this, "Didn't you say that Dean took everyone to the south?" Where did the people come from to besiege this garrison camp? ”

"I don't know, it doesn't look like these people don't look like the army, they are more like, more like bandits." The cavalry replied.

"Bandits?" Viscount Pierre was overjoyed, he didn't want to rush south, but now he met bandits, and he just stopped for a reason.

"Tell everyone to turn to the east, let's go and kill the bandits who attacked us!"

"Huh? My lord, the bandits didn't attack us~"

"I said they attacked, they attacked! Since you have to take a bite if you run into it, everyone will follow me to suppress the bandits! Pierre said, turning his horse's head and leading his army toward Boulder Town to the east...... 11
