The Devil's Sharp Knife marched according to the plan towards the southwest city of Crodinah, which was more than 1,200 kilometers away from the city of Crodinah. In order not to collide with the enemy's main force, Ray was sent to the sky for reconnaissance, and Lei Peng's flight altitude threw off the griffin more than a dozen streets, and there was no need to worry about having natural enemies who could pose a threat to Ray in Eraxia.

After marching southwest for more than ten days, the Devil's Sharp Knife reached the edge of the plateau and mountainous area, and Simak resolutely attacked Dongning Pass, a strong fortress guarded by more than 5,000 people who entered the mountainous area, regardless of the opposition of the vast majority of generals, which was the only way to enter the city of Crodina from east to west.

This battle caused the devil's sharp knife to lose more than 5,000 killed in battle, and more than 5,000 wounded, Simak had to leave all the wounded in Dongning Pass, and send another 10,000 people to guard this pass, which was no less dangerous than the Kuba fortress, leaving a way out for himself, and without resting, along the official road, the speed of the march was accelerated, and continued to advance towards the city of Crodina which was less than 800 kilometers.

The other party did not play cards according to the routine at all, which made Arad very annoyed, and the unexpected completion of the counterinsurgency by the Fifth Army was a headache for him, coupled with the failure of the naval battle, and the fall of Anan City, the base camp of the Fourth War Zone, made Arad determined to eat the Kolenwa Department and Fuxing City at all costs in order to save his face and losses. If this army is allowed to continue to advance, and then break through the second barrier to the east of the capital, Wupara Pass, and then reach the Guanzhong Plain where the city of Crodina is located, the capital will be in no danger to defend, and his 80,000 Royal Forest Army will have to directly face this Devil's Sharp Knife of nearly 200,000 people.

Arad originally transferred 150,000 troops from the First Army and the Second Army Corps respectively, and originally exited the pass from Yuping Pass on the back of the Guanzhong Plain to meet the Devil's Sharp Knife to the north, but the Devil's Sharp Knife suddenly disappeared, and it was only eight days later that the wolf smoke transmission in Anan City made these two troops understand the location of the Devil's Sharp Knife, which was actually hundreds of kilometers east of him. Therefore, the two armies successively pursued east along the north side of the mountain range outside the pass, who knew that before they reached Anan City, they received a wolf smoke warning from Dongning Pass, and had to divide the troops into two routes, all the way to Anan City, and one to Dongning Pass. Now these 300,000 people have been led out of the gate by the devil's sharp knife, but the devil's sharp knife itself has penetrated deep into the gate and played a game of hide and seek.

It's not that Arad's intelligence system is underdeveloped, but that it is difficult to find the enemy's whereabouts in the rainy weather of spring, and even if it is found, the wolf smoke lit up will be confused with the smoke and rain weather, and accurate information will not be obtained at all. In addition, in order to avoid the griffon's tracking, the devil saw and even ventured to march at night, with thousands of cavalry lighting torches and marching away from the target, while the main force quietly hid its whereabouts and advanced towards the set target in the night.

Although the Devil's Sharp Knife that penetrates into the enemy's territory is not very strong in terms of troops, its reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance methods are used perfectly.

After five days of rapid marching on the official road, marching nearly 400 kilometers, the vanguard army came to the bottom of the Vupala Pass. Vupala Pass is the last pass in the east of the Guanzhong Plain where the city of Clodina is located, and it is only more than 300 kilometers away from Kulo Point to capture Vupala Pass.

The original defenders of Wupara Pass were not more than Dongning Pass, but the loss of Dongning Pass made Wupara Pass quickly ask for help everywhere, and a total of 3,000 troops were drawn from nearby strongholds, so that the number of defenders reached more than 8,000 people.

Although the vanguard of the Devil's Sharp Knife arrived at the city of Wupara Pass, but the baggage was far behind, if the Devil's Sharp Knife Pass was not quickly taken, the enemy's defenders would be more and more, and in the direction of Dongning Pass, there were already 150,000 troops marching there, and the consequence of not taking the Wupara Pass was that the Devil's Sharp Knife troops would be besieged in the narrow strip of Dongning Pass and Wupara Pass, and they would be trapped alive.

The first wave of 2,000 death squads, siege vehicles made of newly cut trees, under the cover of shields, rushed to the gate of Wupara Pass, just under the city gate, they were blown to pieces by the boulders tilted down from the city gate, and more than 100 daredevils were killed.

Five successive attacks were in vain, and they did not even approach the other party's city gates, only thousands of corpses and the laughter from the city towers were piled up at the city gates.

SMS had no choice but to order everyone to rest and wait for the arrival of the baggage troops.

"General!" Higg walked to Simak's side and said, "Even if the baggage troops can arrive in two days, the enemy's reinforcements should also arrive, and then not only will we not be able to take the Wupara Pass, but we will also lose the Dongning Pass and suffer from the enemy!" ”

"General Higg, are we going to retreat to Dongning Pass?" SMS said, "We only have to move forward, there is no reason to go backward!" If you have any good ways to tackle key problems, just say it! ”

"Operation Decapitation!" Higg whispered.

Simak was taken aback, and then asked, "How do you enter the customs and be beheaded?" Even if you can get in, how can you kill the other party's commander? ”

Higg said: "I have a way, I need the full cooperation of the death squads to act after dark!" ”

"You're alone?" SMS was even more surprised and said, "No, one person is too dangerous, and there is no possibility of success!" General Higg, you are too young, I have to remind you that war is not child's play, and it is not something that can be taken away by killing someone! Even if it succeeds, decapitation can take the city pass? If the other party has no commander, it will be difficult for us to take the city. ”

"General, you can't hesitate any longer!" Higg said, "Even if I can't succeed, I have a way to get out of it, please let me try!" ”

Simak asked, "General Higg, are you really going to decide to do this?" ”

Higg said awe-inspiringly: "Time is running out, please the general must believe me!" ”

Simak grabbed Higg's hand tightly and said, "Higg, do you know, I was actually born to be a member of the Fifth Legion, and my father was originally the general of the Fifth Legion, but he did not return home with the marshal, but was responsible for the defense of the Karnaca River. After the death of the marshal, the barbarian country and the water zee country launched a counteroffensive, the fifth army was attacked from inside and outside the barbarian country, and finally defeated, more than 600,000 people only broke through more than 100,000, my father was sentenced to death because of the defeat, at that time, I was only fourteen years old! I'm telling you this to tell you that no matter what, I won't let you take such a big risk! ”

Higg looked at Simak in surprise, this guy turned out to be like himself, with a deep hatred of blood, and also a common enemy, Arad, and many things he still saw with his own eyes, empathy, more tragic than himself. From the look in Simak's eyes, Higg believed that Simak was not lying, and there was no need for it. Similar identities and similar experiences make Higg feel more intimate and credible.

Higg didn't think so much about it, and said, "Since you don't agree, I can't disobey the military order, but if you're still a member of the Fifth Legion, you should know why I did it!" Higg said, stuffing the warrior order into Simak's hand, and said, "Without this warrior order, I would not be a member of the Fifth Legion, and if you can't command me, general, I won't be considered to be a disobedient order!" If I die in battle, please keep the Battle Order for the Fifth Legion! ”

Sigg said, ignoring Simak's reaction, and walked directly towards Lan Xian'er, just a few steps, turned his head and said to the stunned Simak: "It will be dark in an hour, and I will enter the customs in an hour after dark!" ”

……

"Higg, let me go with you!" Pantony said, holding up a large axe.

"Pantony, don't worry, I can't die!" Higg laughed, "You still have your own things to do!" ”

Lan Xian'er sorted out the battle armor for Xige and said, "I'll go with you, without you, there is no point in finding the ore?" ”

"You? Are you kidding? Higg said angrily, "You have no ability out of the Valley of Flowers, will you go with me to die?" ”

Lan Xian'er smiled, "I'm only looking at you from above!" ”

"That's dangerous, too!" Higg said, "I'm afraid I'll be distracted to take care of you!" ”

Lan Xian'er smiled: "You underestimate me too much! There is thunder, I can help you, don't worry! ”

Higg laughed: "Actually, I don't want you to see me die!" ”

"That's why I'm staring at you!"

"I don't think you're sad at all, you don't seem to be worried that I'm going to die at all!"

"I'm worried about being useful? You didn't ask for my opinion when you went to die, so why should I worry? ”

Higg stretched and said with a smile, "Forget it, I'm going to take a break!" I can see that even if I die, you don't want to collect my body for me, hehe! ”

Lan Xian'er's eyes were moist, and she couldn't let the tears flow, then she looked up and smiled and said, "Without my consent, you can't die!" ”

……

Military night sneak attacks are generally chosen after midnight to before dawn, which is the time when people are the most sleepy, and the time period when people in their sleep is also the deadliest, even if they wake up suddenly, their body functions cannot quickly reach the best state.

But Higg did the opposite, and just an hour after dark, he was about to act.

The first to attack were the daredevils on the ground, braving the rain of arrows and stones, pushing siege engines and advancing towards the gates of Vupalaguan.

The attack of the devil's sharp knife made the guards who had just eaten dinner very angry, and they all climbed to the side of the city wall to throw stones and arrows at the daredevils, and shouted insults.

Higg and Blue Fairy were already sitting on Ray's back, flying high into the air, hovering in the air, looking for the best place to land. Higg didn't know where the other party's commander was, and according to the general defense of the city, the commander would usually appear on the city tower, but Sigg observed for a day and didn't find the other party's commander showing up, otherwise, with his tree elf bow, it would be possible to complete the decapitation.

Lei slowly lowered his altitude and slowly flew towards the tower of Wupara Pass. Higg casts a swarm of steel shield ability to mitigate all physical damage.

Lan Xian'er grabbed Higg's hand, looked at Higg with both eyes, and said, "I'm watching you from above, alive!" ”

Higg looked back at Lan Xian'er and said with a smile: "You haven't agreed yet, I can't die!" As he spoke, he kissed Lan Xian'er lightly on the head, jumped forward, and jumped away from Lei's back.

The thunder was still more than twenty meters high from the ground, and several whirlwinds quickly blew up on the city tower, rolling over several soldiers on the city wall, and Higg took advantage of the rising air current, holding the sword in his right hand, and controlling the cyclone magic skill with his left hand, and slowly fell down towards the city gate tower.

All the people on and under the city gate looked at this strange soldier who suddenly fell from the sky in astonishment, as if they were watching the gods descend from the heavens.
