Of course, King Traag of Sindra would not have known that his most important adviser, Nobianda, had died in the middle of the expedition for no apparent reason, and at this time he was still commanding the army of Sindra all the way to the territory of Badana. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

As the troops approached Batana territory, increasingly complex terrain and rugged mountain roads began to hinder the speed of the Sindra army's march. Sindra is not without mountains, of course, but it is simply hilly compared to the mountains of Badana. The troops had to trude through the undulating mountains, and because of the narrowness and ruggedness of the roads, the army had to be stretched, and there was even a situation where the advance had already arrived at the day's scheduled camp, and the rear troops had not yet opened the camp of the previous day, so Sindra's army had to spread out its forces to find more roads and advance at the same time, otherwise the advance would be seriously insufficient, and then the numerical superiority of the army would not be able to play when it came into contact with the Badana army.

However, King Traag knew in his heart that the terrain in this area was the most likely place for Dadaran to counterattack, because only here the Sindra army was guarded and could not care for each other, and once it broke through a little, other friendly forces were powerless to come to the rescue.

According to the intelligence, Dadaran had mobilized 120,000 troops in Bataan's territory to advance towards him, but Traag knew that this was just an illusion. Judging from his own knowledge of Dadaran's army, Dadaran's actual army is likely to exceed 120,000, and his 120,000 army is likely to be just a front to attract the attention of Sindra's army. According to Traag's analysis, the number of troops in Badana's territory was only 70,000 or 80,000, so at least part of Dadalan's 120,000 troops were temporarily conscripted. And in fact, most of these 120,000 people should be temporarily recruited, their existence is just to make up the number, what really worries Trag is the location of the 70,000 or 80,000 regular troops of Badana, at this moment, Dadaran is very likely to really lead these elite soldiers to break through with all his strength, and his intelligence control rate of this army is zero.

Traag's suspicions were soon confirmed, and soon after he received his first report of battle after entering Badana's territory - the Right Wing Army and the Badana Army were at war, and Dadaran's 120,000-strong army was still two hundred miles away before making contact with the Sindra Advance Army!

With the arrival of reports of the enemy, there was a series of defeats. The Right Wing Army, which had been divided into many units by the mountain road, was defeated by the attack of the Badana Army, and eight detachments were routed in succession in one day, with more than 7,000 killed in battle.

Of course, 7,000 men is nothing to the 500,000 Sindra army, but the key problem is that these 7,000 people are lost in one day, which is a big blow to the morale of the Sindra army. Tragg knew of course the strength of Bataana's army, but the army brought by the obedient king could have grown from self-confidence to fear. And Dadaran's real goal is also the psychology of these people, if the military spirit of a large army is destroyed, then it is not impossible to defeat this behemoth.

But will it be that simple? Tragg secretly laughed inwardly at his opponent. The reason why Trag has such confidence is not because his military ability has grown by leaps and bounds in these days, but because his staff officer, or the mastermind of the expedition, has told him that Dadaran's attack is just another cover, and he needs to do everything possible to attract the attention of the Sindra tribes, and even more importantly, to attract the attention of Traag's central army, and finally look for an opportunity to directly attack Traag's own army.

Speaking of which, Dadaran was indeed a man of courage. Only this time, I knew your plan from the start. King Tragg secretly rejoiced in his heart, because this time he already had a foolproof plan - the elite troops led by Prince Yeshu would roam around his troops, and as long as Dadaran dared to come, he would lead his army of killers to take down Dadaran's head, and as long as Dadaran fell, then no matter how strong the Badana army was, it would only be a straggler.

Four days after the start of the battle with the Badana army, the situation became more and more depressing: the situation of the Right Army can only be described as miserable, and in just four days, the casualties of the Right Army rose to more than 34,000, almost 40% of its total strength, and as many as five kings or princes were killed in battle, the battle line was torn like rags by Dadaran, and what is even more infuriating is that the actual number of the main force led by Dadaran has not been ascertained so far. Originally, Traag had planned and sent a part of the central army and the forward army to flank Dadaran, but the forward army also fought a great defeat after coming into contact with the 120,000 troops of Badana, with more than 22,000 casualties and three kings killed in battle.

Traag knew that the quality of his army was indeed inferior to that of his opponent, but he did not expect that it would be so bad, if it was defeated by Bataan's regular army, it would be too embarrassing, but now he could not even defeat the enemy army that had been put together temporarily. Of course, Trag didn't know that Dadaran had already conducted quite adequate military training for the people in Badana's territory, so these so-called temporary conscripted soldiers were not weak in combat.

Instead of sending his central army to lure Dadaran into a trap, Traag now had to send them to reinforce the breached front and wait for an opportunity to launch a counteroffensive to save some face. It's not that Traag doesn't know that doing so will increase his own risks, but as a king, he should put the overall situation of war ahead of his own safety. In this respect, Traag has not lost his dignity as a king.

Things finally took a turn for the better, and the tide of the battle finally began to settle after Traag sent a large number of troops to reinforce the forward and right flanks. At this time, Dadaran must have learned that his middle army was very empty. Then the next step was to choose a location that could drag down Dadaran's raid as Dadaran's burial ground, Traag searched the map for a long time, and finally set his sights on a place called Wolf's Tooth Canyon.

The topography of this canyon, as its name suggests, is intertwined with canine teeth and peaks, which cannot be spread out by large armies, but which is conducive to the movement of small forces, and in every respect, it is in line with Dadaran's wishes, and of course, all these conditions are also in line with the requirements of the prince.

Death Canyon. Tragg mentally renamed the canyon and commanded the Central Army to march towards the Wolf's Tooth Canyon.
