"Woo-woo-" Benjamin's central army was the first to blow the horn of attack, and the first problem they faced was the Loris River.

The river does not freeze due to the arrival of winter, so it is necessary to build a pontoon boat bridge to cross the river. But it doesn't matter, Benjamin's army of divine beasts can swim across the river, control both sides along the river, and then set up pontoon bridges and boat bridges to let the main army cross north.

More than 500 one-horned horns jumped into the icy and biting Loris River without fear, and suddenly the river more than 200 meters wide became the focus of the fierce battle between the two sides.

The white unicorn beast almost blocked the already dry river, and the river was full of unicorn beasts struggling to cross the river, and Da Kemal sat calmly on the boat, commanding with battle flags in the rear of the beast army.

On the north bank of the river, the crossbow chariots, ballistae, catapults, and elven archers violently intercepted and blocked the army of divine beasts, and flying stones, flying arrows, and arrows poured into the river like raindrops. The flying arrow has no lethal effect on the unicorn beast at all, * and the flying stone will only cause abrasions and scratches to the unicorn if it does not hit the vital point, but there is the cover of the river, the unicorn only exposes the position of the head and neck, and the baggage troops on the north bank are difficult to shoot directly at the target, and the unicorn itself is born for battle, the action is too agile, and he can premonition the danger, and he can dodge the threatening force of * and the flying stone, therefore, the process of crossing the river of the army of divine beasts, There was not much loss and interference, and it was completely like a hanging, and a dozen unicorns were injured! The catapults on the south bank were not idle, and at the same time rained their own stone bullets on the north bank......

Part of the army of mythical beasts that landed on the north bank began to clear the enemy's baggage and defenders along the banks of the river, and part of it struck in the direction of the enemy's depth, and then Benjamin's army began to arrange the boat bridge from the south bank.

The debut of the Divine Beast army shocked Smecta's army, and the first line of defense, which barely caused much trouble to the enemy, was forced to give up.

However, the battlefield of the Forest Country is very different from the battlefield of Erathia, it is not a river crossing, and after breaking the barrier, you can start covering up like the cavalry of the Fifth Legion. There are mountains and mountains, hills and cliffs, and dense jungles, and the river defense line is not as important as the battlefield of Aracia, and it is impossible for any river in the forest country to be arranged as an impregnable defense line along the river like Aracia, because their warriors are more suitable for jungle warfare.

In the middle, on the left, and on the right, Benjamin's three-way army, within a day, basically crossed the Loris River, came to the north bank, and after the great situation of the Divine Beast army opened, it advanced to the depth of the enemy like a bamboo, and the same as when attacking Auguston, Smecta's army was crushed in front of Benjamin's army, and after a few days of stubborn resistance, they retreated to the town, relying on the walls of the town to resist the advance of the Divine Beast army. Attacking fortifications is the shortcoming of the unicorn beasts, and like the paladins, they are helpless against the walls.

But Benjamin's morale-boosting army first completed the sweep of the troops on the outskirts of the three towns, and then the three armies came to the city, and Benjamin issued an ultimatum that if he did not surrender, the day the city was broken would be the time to slaughter the city.

The morale of the army is one after another, the Loris River is not a big river, and the many big cities along the coast are not a solid big city, relying on the stubborn resistance of the city for three days, Smecta Middle Road was forced to break out of the city, the army broke up to the north, disappeared into the jungle, Benjamin fulfilled his promise, the 80,000 residents of the city of Hollis, regardless of men, women and children, dug more than sixty large pits outside the city, all of them were buried alive, for a time, so that the north bank regardless of the countryside, the residents of the town, were completely shocked by the north, Benjamin's name, The name of the Liberation Army and the prestige of the unicorn beast have become a good medicine to stop children from crying.

A day later, Bols's right army was forced to break out of the city under the onslaught of Pantony's left army......

"Marshal Pantony, you dare to disobey the king's military orders?" Benjamin was furious at Pantony, who had come to report the battle in person.

"Your Majesty, you can't slaughter the city!" Pan Dongni persuaded bitterly, "The two armies are fighting, what do you have to do with the people, these are your subjects!" ”

"There is no joke in the army, let alone a military order issued by this king!" Benjamin said angrily, "Even if this king's military order is wrong, it must be carried out this time, otherwise, where is the majesty of this king, and where is the military regulations of the Liberation Army?" ”

"No, Your Majesty, the lives of 70,000 people are no match for Your Majesty's temporary majesty?" Pantony cried, "I can't do this, I see those women and children kneeling in the cold wind crying helplessly and begging, I can't do this, I can't be the executioner, Your Majesty, please take back the military order, I beg you for the lives of these 70,000 people!" ”

"You can't do this, I'll ask someone to do it for you!" Benjamin was furious.

Pantony knelt on the ground and pleaded: "If Your Majesty wants to kill them, then please remove me from my position as Marshal, and I am willing to be only a pawn and continue to serve Your Majesty!" I'd rather die on the battlefield than wake up every night from a nightmare in which 70,000 people cry and shout and demand my life! ”

"Are you going to fight against this king?" Benjamin glared at Pantony fiercely, his eyes blazing, and said angrily, "Just for the sake of these ants, you dare to count this king in public?" ”

"For the sake of me saddleing your majesty for many years, please spare them!" Pantony was still pleading, "If Your Majesty really wants to kill them, then please kill me first!" ”

"Someone, send Marshal Pantony back to the Left Army!" Benjamin scolded, "General Mozari, you take people to help Marshal Pantony, he is not willing to slaughter the city, I am not reluctant, you will do it for him!" ”

Mozari was taken aback and hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, this ......"

Benjamin glared at Mozari and said coldly: "Why, do you have to fight against this king, and you are not willing to carry out military orders?" ”

"Yes, the last general's order!"

"No, Your Majesty, you can't do this, you can't......" Pantony, who was driven away by several armorers, cried out, but Benjamin didn't even look back at him......

……

"Killed?" Pantony, who had more than half of his hair gray, sat in the tent and asked Cavanagh, who had just walked in.

"Yes, patriarch, there are more than 70,000 people, and there is not a single one left!" Kavanagh said with a solemn face.

"Don't call me patriarch, you will be the patriarch of the Desi family in the future!" Pantoni got up, walked up to Kavanagh, handed the shield and axe of the patriarch of the Desi family to Kavanagh, and said.

"Patriarch, what does this mean, I never wanted to be a patriarch?" Kavanagh asked, taken aback.

"Hey, the Desi tribe? The Golden Family? Pantony ignored Kavanagh's question, and said to himself, "I'd rather my people live in seclusion in the mountains and jungles and continue to mine and log, than get this honor in exchange for a sea of corpses and blood!" What is the Golden Family? In order for our family to be protected from bullying, do we need to drink other people's blood and bully others? ”

Kavanagh sighed: "The honor of this golden family was originally bought by our clan for the matter of Princess Jenny, but I can't imagine that Your Majesty continues to use our family as an executioner for his sinful deeds!" ”

"Shut up!" Pantony shouted angrily, glaring at Cavanagh, and after a while, he sighed again, and then said, "What does he say, he is also our king, and I will not allow you to say that about Your Majesty!" ”

"Why does the patriarch put the responsibility of the patriarch on me?" Kavanagh said puzzled, "You are the pride of our Desi family, and only you can glorify our Desi family!" ”

"You don't understand!" Pan Dongni smiled, "The birds are all gone, and the good bow is hidden; The cunning rabbit is dead, and the lackeys are cooking! Your Majesty has done this to me now, how can he tolerate me when he truly recovers the entire territory of the Forest Country? I know too much, and I am in a high position, there will be no good end, and my end is not far off! It's enough for the Desi family to have me to serve His Majesty, and I don't need to catch up with the whole clan! ”

"Why is the patriarch so persistent?" "We can go back to the Desi tribe, and as you said, we live deep in the mountains and jungles, mining and logging, and whoever is outside him is king?" ”

Pan Dongni smiled: "He is my king, my only king, I have been with him since I was a child, when he was a prince, I was a guard, when he was down, I was by my side, he was a king, I was a marshal, I was destined to follow him, there was no choice!" A few years ago, Marissa approached me and asked me to help save Bors and the others, I hesitated, but in the end I firmly followed my elf king! Kavanagh, I don't blame you for going to tell Your Majesty at that time, the matter has passed, and you are also for my good, for Your Majesty's good! ”

Kavanagh was shocked and almost unsteady on his feet, he did report to Benjamin back then, sabotaged Marisa's rescue plan, causing Schneider's hundreds of thousands of advance army to fall into Benjamin's trap, causing the split between the Liberation Army and the Advance Army, and he still regrets it when he thinks about it now. Marisa and Pantony's conversation at that time could be heard by Evangelist Benjamin, how could Pantony not find out that he did it?

"Alright, don't worry about the past!" Pantoni looked at Kavanagh and said, "Put away the shield and battle axe, from now on, you will be the patriarch of the Desi family, whether you want to lead the Desi family to mine and log, or continue to follow Your Majesty, it's up to you!" You can also continue to tell Your Majesty, just like you did back then! ”

Kavanagh knelt down and said, "I am really touched that the patriarch is not to blame for the past, I have regretted what happened back then, how could I do something to betray the patriarch again?" Besides, the patriarch is loyal to His Majesty, what can he tell His Majesty? I'm willing to disappear with the Desi family and go to the mines and logging! ”

"Don't call me Patriarch, call me Marshal!" Pan Dongyi said, "You have a clear conscience, hand over the Desi family to you, and I can also explain to the old patriarch!" Since you have decided on the future of the Desi family, then leave tonight, return to the Desi family, don't hesitate, and disappear with the clan immediately! ”

"Yes, Patriarch...... Marshal! Kavanagh said with tears in his eyes.
