The news of the victory came one after another, and everything was in Deguzorf's plan - the Frankish army first annihilated Arantran and his 5,000 elite horsemen, and then used spies to report the false news of the siege of Alantlan to the Paz army in the fortress of Barnoor, and the garrison of the fortress, which had lost its commander, sent an army to try to rescue Alantlan while asking for help from Billiudas, and the troops in the city were also destroyed. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 Info Then Dguzorf mixed the elite infantry with the defeated Paz army, and managed to open the gates of the fortress of Barnol during the night, and when the Frankish army entered the fortress, many of the Paz troops were still asleep. In just five days, the fortress of Barnoir and the 25,000 troops that had been stationed there had literally disappeared.

With the capture of the fortress of Barnoor, in fact, the defense line of the Paz Empire has collapsed, because from the fortress of Banor it can already be driven straight into the hinterland of the Path Empire, and Billiudas and his 80,000 army are not only powerless to stop the 300,000 Frankish army, but are even in danger of being divided and surrounded by the Frankish army. And Billiudas's reaction was also very correct, he did not continue to stay on the already useless line of defense, but took the initiative to withdraw before the encirclement of the Frankish army was formed, although in the process the Paz army suffered nearly 10,000 casualties, but at least the main force of the Paz army was preserved.

After these victories, the various units of the Frank army cooperated sincerely with each other and shared the fruits of victory, but the commander of the Frankish army, Deguzolf, was not happy.

There are three main aspects that make Decuzov unhappy, the first of which is the issue of military discipline. Thanks to the capture of the fortress of Barnoor, the vast lands of Paz had been opened to Frank, and the Franks no longer had to worry about limited food supplies as before. However, this also meant that the Franks would inevitably plunder the civilian population to replenish their military supplies, and Deguzorf knew that his order to prohibit plunder would probably not be followed anymore. Of course, it was not that he did not understand that his previous order could be carried out not because the lords and kings obeyed his authority, but because there was nothing to plunder, in order to prevent the problem of military discipline after the situation changed, Deguzorf applied to the Holy See early on to give him higher authority. For these kings and lords who wielded secular power, the only thing they could control was the restriction of divine authority, which was the only authority that Deguzorff could use, only to be met with the Holy See's rejection of his application, leaving him completely out of control of the current situation. He wanted the horses to run again, and the horses to stop grazing, and he almost wanted to stop doing it, but he knew very well that the Holy See would not let him go if he had won this series of victories, and he could not guarantee that his successor would not allow the Frankish army's misdeeds to continue to escalate.

In addition to these two events, there was another thing that worried Deguzolf even more, and that was that although the Alantlan army was completely destroyed, he and his 5,000 cavalry did not show up to surrender. For such a high will to fight in the Paz army, Deguzorf was full of awe. He knew very well that Arantran chose to fight to the death even though he knew that there was no hope of breaking through, and that all his men followed him, which had a spiritual significance far greater than the actual combat significance, and he openly showed himself that the Paz Empire would never give in to Frank.

It was with great difficulty that he had worked so hard to design a game to get Arantlan into it, but he set an example for all the living Paz people - fighting to the death against the Frankish invading army, coupled with the misdeeds of the Frankish army, would inevitably strengthen the will of the Paz people to resist, and it would be too difficult to defeat such an army. Dguzolf knew it all too well. But now there is nothing he can do, and the enemies he is about to face are Billudas, who is more savvy than Arantlan, and the legendary warrior Baibasbarn.

If, according to Dguzolf's intentions, after taking the fortress of Barnol, he should quickly march to surround Biluidas, and even if he fails to encircle this part of the Paz army, he should march as soon as possible, without giving the Paz army a chance to breathe, and then seize large tracts of Paz land, establish a solid defensive line on these lands, and prepare for the next stage of the battle with Baibasbahn, but now he can do nothing - the Frankish army goes out to plunder the property, and slows down the march. The only army that Deguzorf could mobilize was Hilda's army and the 2,000 knights he had assembled, but these forces alone had to penetrate deep into the enemy's territory, and they could not hold on to it, and it was easy to become the object of the enemy's encirclement. The current situation was as if the cheetah had to stop and keep pace with the tortoise, and the thought of leading such an army against an opponent even stronger than Alantran would of course make Decuzorff's will become depressed.

Of course, Deguzorf did not forget his responsibility as the commander of the whole army, no matter how uncompetitive his subordinates were, he still had to keep his troops in a situation that was not easy to defeat as much as possible. To this end, Deguzorf made every effort to grasp the current position and attachment of the various units in a timely manner, and to move them to the nearest strategic position at any time according to the changing situation, under his unremitting efforts, the Frank army was like a huge amoeba, eroding the land of Paz bit by bit, although the people of Paz who were plundered along the way spontaneously organized together to defend their own safety, but this could not stop the advance of the Frankish army, They advanced for a full twenty-five days at an ultra-slow pace four times lower than the normal march. Then they were confronted by the 300,000-strong army of Basbarn.

In contrast to the Frankish army, the Paz army had lost its entire line of defense and a large part of the country after suffering such heavy losses, and this bad news was not a small blow to Baibasbahn. Basbarn couldn't believe that his closest subordinate, Arantlan, had lost his life in such a small battle, and he couldn't believe that Nisinis's prophecy had been true, and he had completely disregarded the nonsense of witches and sorcerers. Now that Paz's gates are almost open to the enemy, he must take on the role of gatekeeper.

In the face of the defeat of Billiudas, instead of blaming him, Baibasbahn gave him high praise. Biludas did not lead his troops to relieve Arantrán as Nisinis had predicted, thus causing the complete collapse of the Paz army, and he also withdrew from the defense line in time, keeping 70,000 Paz troops on track for Baibasbarn, this alone was enough to make Baibasbar feel sorry for him, not to mention that after having already lost one of the 10,000 cavalry commanders, Paz really couldn't afford to punish another 10,000 cavalry commander. There is a lot of work to be done by this capable general. The first problem facing Baibasbar was to take the 300,000 untrained troops to stop the menacing Frankish army.
