Chapter 559: Lies (2)

Captain Vashon had been stationed in the southern watchtower, and he and his men were alone, watching the aimlessly roaming zombies wander not far from them...... In the beginning, they also frantically swept the area around the watchtower, but it was difficult to secure manpower and supplies, and every time they communicated with the monastery, it was like performing an impossible mission...... They finally relented to reality and accepted the dilemma that they could not clear the low-level undead on their own. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The long coexistence with the undead prevented them from becoming too insane, so when the new orders reached Vasson, he chose to obey.

A few days earlier, the Scouts had received news that a vision had occurred north of the ruins of Lordaeron - a climatic disaster like a sandstorm had suddenly occurred, and the resulting saloon had only lasted for a short time.

Upon receiving the report, Vashon immediately left the watchtower with two of his men, and they followed the relatively safe road that countless people had confirmed with their lives all the way north, and finally met the person who gave the order on the south side of the valley.

"That's it, General, everything happened as you said."

Vashon reported the timing of the vision, reporting the distribution of the undead along the way, and he stole a look at the majestic woman in the new armor in front of him...... Since Renault took control of a section of the Crusaders, it had been a long time since the Scarlet Abbey had not held the position of general.

New commanders, new generals, new equipment and new combat orders.

"Good."

Clement frowned and reread the report in her hand, she couldn't figure out why Loria knew that there was going to be a salon in the south...... It was unclear what was going on for the next series of actions, but she decided not to think about it and just faithfully carried out Loria's secret orders.

"You're doing a good job, Captain Varsson." She turned over and waved her hand to signal the assault troops to gather, "Miss...... The Commander offers you several options to return to the Abbey or continue to do your duty. ”

"I ......"

"Don't be in a hurry to decide, take your men back to the monastery for a debriefing first. Recuperate for a while. ”

Clement gave Vison and his wounded warriors a horse and sent them north, while she began to march south with the well-armed cavalry, the source of Loria's suffering.

She didn't care about the distribution of the undead along the way, and the order she received was to show force with great fanfare. Finding the general direction, she and more than a hundred powerful cavalry built with a lot of money rushed all the way over, and she didn't care whether those who stood in the way were the scourge undead or the so-called forsaken, and approached Brill in just one day.

The heavy cavalry could not fight long distances, for this operation. They all left their heavy and expensive plate armor in the armory, and fled with only three days' worth of dry rations and a spare weapon.

Cryment was furious at the dilapidated and gloomy appearance of the town that had been taken by the undead, and she was tempted to give the order to set foot on this place—but only to think about it, she would not ignore Loria's orders, nor would she sacrifice countless lives in exchange for a senseless victory to appease her anger.

The crusaders had lost almost half of their strength and could no longer afford another major loss.

"Alright, listen to my orders and light the torches." , after a short break. Clement, who was on a horse, raised her right hand into a fist, and when she saw the undead who had already sensed her movements rushing out of the town, she threw her fist downwards and shouted, "Strike!" ”

The Crusader cavalry whipped their horses and increased their speed, charging head-on towards the undead army, only to suddenly split into two columns out of range of arrows and magic to bypass the enemy...... Most of them have experience fighting on horseback, and simple tactical maneuvers are not a problem.

Two columns of cavalry rushed far around the perimeter of Brill and threw their torches at the town...... Most of them were not thrown on the house at all, a few burned themselves, and the two flames that were successfully lit were quickly extinguished by the undead. They converged on the south side of the town, turned around and charged the few undead soldiers they had pursued, and then quickly left.

Two people were left behind, and they didn't know if they were alive or dead. The results of the battle were pitiful, and they only wiped out a dozen undead soldiers in the final impact.

The morale of the cavalry began to slump, and Clement did not intend to explain the hidden reason for the battle, which was bluffing, but promised the soldiers to beat up the undead on the way back.

Anyway, those scattered brainless zombies can't do much damage.

Leaving the pursuing army of the undead far behind, this lightly armed cavalry unit arrived at its predetermined location - west of the entrance to the valley. A narrow lake shore east of the clear lake.

By the time they arrived, it was already a busy scene, with nearly two hundred warriors digging trenches and building improvised fortifications, while the remaining cavalry was doing routine training in the distance.

At her weakest, Loria unexpectedly decided to move the entire line outward, and her new order arrived with the silver-haired girl with a paralyzed face—the freshly baked general, after arranging the defenses, was to lead the cavalry to clear the vast expanse of land north of the lake to the northern coast.

On the third day, Clement departed with her cavalry, and Alice yawned and climbed the wooden watchtower, staring out at the trenches and wooden fences below, leaving behind Doru as commander of the position to reassure the people that they would be able to hold it in the retaliatory attack of the undead.

As the general's aide-de-camp, Doru clearly did not have the prestige of Clement, and most people did not believe his words at all, and some even openly quarreled with him and questioned Loria's orders - it was not wise for the Crusaders to throw half of their soldiers into the makeshift defensive line, except for the army that had returned to defend against the snowman...... Loria? Mograini may be good at intrigues, but she knows nothing about military affairs, and she's dragging everyone to die with her stupidity!

"Don't make any noise." Alice threw the bread she was holding downward, "The undead are coming!" ”

The potential riot ceased for the time being, the warriors nervously but not very flusteredly took their swords, shields, spears, and crossbows from the warehouse, the archers and a handful of magicians climbed up the wooden platform, hid behind the stakes and peeked out, and the priests followed the warriors and knights, clinging to their staffs and lining up before the fortifications.

The dense undead soon appeared in everyone's sight, Clement took all the cavalry, and now, less than two hundred warriors had to face the army of the undead, they had nowhere to escape, and after the fall of this fortification, the undermanned monastery would be easily overcome.

The sky is falling, the Scarlet Crusader Pill! (To be continued.) )
