They had thought that if they stayed in Eruin, there was no doubt that the rest of their life would be boring, even monotonous, this was not an empire, there was no opportunity to make a difference, there were no enemies like Hazel, wind elves, knights of Faenzan, or even barbarians, and they stayed here only to fulfill their duties. They are military men, naturally to obey orders, but at the same time

They are still young, hot-blooded knights, and who doesn't want to conquer the Quartet on the battlefield and establish feats? But suddenly, such an opportunity appeared in front of them, although not to fight for the Empire, but at least not to be enemies of the Empire, the nobles of Eruin are also the nobles recognized by the nations, and the key is that if the eldest son of the emperor also approves of them, then they are in fact equivalent to for

The Cruz royal family is fighting.

Almost everyone was impressed.

Little Pelo was even instigated by Brende and others to inquire about the meaning of Veronica and the emperor's eldest son, and the reply was: Prince Leonarat secretly stayed in Eruin as the most distinguished guest, and he was one in attack and defense with Count Tonigel, sharing honor and disgrace, so Tonigel's war was the war of His Royal Highness Leonarete, so if Count Toniger allowed

The Knights of the Broken Sword can be allowed to obey Eruin at the same time, but they must still have the safety of His Royal Highness the eldest son as their first mission.

This answer reveals so much information. However, little Pelo didn't have the heart to analyze how many conspiracies and interest exchanges there were, because he was also moved, they were born for war, who didn't want to go into battle to kill the enemy? They can fight all enemies except their homeland, war is their glory, scars are their medals, they have one

names. It's called Imperial Knight.

Three days ago, Brando still brought all the members of the Knights of the Folding Sword in the name of the Observation Mission, and even Prince Lenarat was in this so-called Observation Group, but little Pello knew that their opportunity had come, and they were getting closer to the battlefield day by day. At this moment, he finally couldn't help but stop the earl.

Brando glanced at him and smiled inwardly, thinking that these guys couldn't help it. When he had Veronica agree to let the Knights of the Broken Sword stay in Eruin, he was loyal to the eldest son of the emperor and at the same time obeyed him, but he played a trick and didn't let Veronica directly tell the young people the inside story. The reason is simple, he knows only slightly

Give these young people a hint, and they will definitely not be able to help it, he knows these young war maniacs from Cruz too well - a third of the entire empire will be star-studded with this in the future. These people are born for war, and it is impossible for them to endure loneliness. These young knights received the most rigorous training, and they underwent the most rigorous knightly examinations and actual combat tests

It is impossible to come to Eruin for a vacation, if there is no opportunity, they may be loyal to their duties and willing to be lonely, but once there is a slight possibility. They're going to take the chance.

Therefore, instead of giving them orders, it is better to take the initiative to motivate them. He also wanted to see how powerful these future generals of the empire were.

However, even though he had such a plan in his heart, he still asked lightly, "What's the matter?" ”

……

The rolling hills of the Slovefa region stretch from the end of the Silman and Pine Mountains, where the eastern foothills of the Chablis meet, outlining the northernmost part of the Golan-Elsen Passage. It is also the easternmost point of the Tosancade Forest, where Eco and his fiancée Jura have historically ambushed and routed the combined forces of Lantonilan and Viero

The army of blood staffs, and today, it seems that history repeats itself. Once again, the army of the undead that had spread across the mountains had entered the area.

The sky was gloomy, and the whole mountain seemed to exude coldness, but for the undead, it didn't matter whether it was cold or hot, the skeleton of bones made a clattering sound along the valley, and the woodland seemed to be full of gray skulls, and there were some skeleton knights in the distance, unlike human knights, they rarely carried any flags, and the dark spears were theirs

Banner.

The development of the war is somewhat incredible.

Especially for the Blood Staff, since the White Wing Cavalry Regiment was completely annihilated in the Silman River Valley, the Eruin on the opposite side fell into complete passivity, and the Van Mill Legion was forced to change its defense on a large scale, as a result, the entire front of the guide was demoralized and exhausted, which brought the consequences of the severe zhòng, and in the battle a few days earlier, the army of the undead had routed almost every one that stood in front of it

The Van Mill Legion is in complete defeat, even worse than the defeat in the First War of the Black Roses. It was as if all of a sudden, the Blood Staff found that there was no enemy in front of him, and that the nearest army of the Eruins was still far away in Lantoniland, and even if they started to move now, it would be at least a week before they reached Kurk, which was already in place

for a ruin. And the armies of Carasu and Viero are even more of a shadow yet. Once it had captured Kurk and joined forces with Jean Denel's human, Lantoniland's army would be nothing more than that.

This is something that the Most High did not do in the war a year ago, and now it is to be done lightly for him.

The Blood Staff's heart was full of pride and pride. In his opinion, the Eruin army of Goran-Elsen was nothing to mention, he had swept through Karasu, and the Highland knights were really opponents, compared to which the Eruins of Goran-Elsen were weak and stupid, and it was a shame to suffer at the hands of such an enemy. It seems that the one-eyed dragon Tagu

He had heard that the army that had invaded Buchi had been in a bit of trouble, and that the Most High of Madara, who was armed with a staff of mercury, had risen to the throne because of the self-righteous vampires, and now it seemed that her eyes were no more than that.

In the heart of the Blood Staff, it seemed that even the reverence for the Supreme One was three points less.

Its eyes burned with white phosphorus fire, and its indifferent gaze swept over the rolling hills, where its army of the undead was rapidly expanding, and if it had been stronger, the Supreme would no longer dare to take it lightly, even in Madara. The only thing that bothered it a little though was the dark mercenaries from the Sea of the Dead Moon. Their greed is somewhat superordinate

As he expected, the beggars only wanted some magically rich land, but after witnessing the weakness of the human race, the idea of the big cities began to be taken from him.

But how could it possibly give it away, it was an innumerable number of bones and souls.

However, the Blood Staff was not clear, it was in the process of estimating the gains and losses in its mind. The dark mercenaries of the army, who had been fighting for so long that they thought of fighting almost as a natural activity of eating and sleeping, were beginning to feel a little unusual. Generally speaking, when scouts on the periphery of a large army are restricted, it may take a while for an inexperienced commander to feel probed

Capabilities are limited. But for a veteran, the loss of a team of scouts, the vigilance that has accumulated from countless life and death experiences can make them feel as if their necks have been choked.

And at the moment. The Dark Lords from the Sea of the Dead Moon feel like this.

In an hour, they lost more than five teams of scouts.

The north side of the entire army seemed to be suddenly shrouded in a layer of mist. Instinctively sensing the danger, the Dark Lords relayed their realizations to the Blood Staff while sending more skeleton cavalry in that direction. The Blood Staff was also an old rival of the Eruin, but he came to a simple conclusion - the Eruin were ready to take a gamble, they thought

Hold off the undead army here with all their might, or miss this barrier. Fort Kurk will be unsafe.

This conclusion was endorsed by the Dark Lords.

After all, unlike the Blood Staff, these dark nobles from the Sea of the Dead Moon knew nothing about Eruin. Aside from the Van Mill Legion in front of them, the only thing they knew about this kingdom was the White Lion Legion in Ampesel. It can be said that all of their military disposition to Eruin in the south at the moment comes from the Blood Staff, which tells them that they have no one left in the Golan-Elsen

They believed that it was true, and they didn't think about it at all.

In fact, the judgment of the blood rod cannot be said to be incorrect, in the information of Madara. The southern border of Eruin is now a scattered mess, with Princess Griffiin uniting forces from Ampesel and Anlek to Tonigel, but only nominal appeal to Lantonilan, Viero, Goran-Elsen, and Karasu, and the lords of these regions are among themselves

contradictions, the possibility of reaching an alliance between each other before the real threat is minimal. But the Blood Staff never dreamed of it. There is also a knightly madman named Eco in the southern border of Eruin, whose favorite thing in life is to meddle in his own affairs - the corpse witch lord has been so rash in history to bury his life, and he is still obsessed with repeating the mistakes of the past.

Moreover, this time, not only did the knightly madman Eco intend to teach it a lesson that he would never forget, but far away in Tonigel, there was also a sinister and cunning settling being who had been calculating it since a few months ago.

……

Eco was staring intently at the map in front of him with a frown, he was now both the representative of Lantoni and the commander of the aristocratic army of Duke Canonon. Of course, he has always had no command skills, in fact, the entire battle plan was completed under the repeated modifications of the knights and generals under Buga, Macaro, Outin, Jura and Duke Vieiro, of course, this must also be added to the highland knights, the highland knights finally sent a small knight group composed of silver strength, the number is about four hundred, although the number is not much, but the average silver strength level still makes people can't help but look sideways, Not to mention that this knight is accompanied by a one-third wizard group of the same strength level.

Such a luxurious configuration almost everyone can't help but be a little amazed, I have to say that the Highland Knights have always maintained a transcendent status in the territory of Eruin, relying on their strength beyond the kingdom.

However, after Her Royal Highness the Princess informed Brando of this, Brando was a little amused. He knew that there were not many knights like this in the Highland Knights, there were only three in total, and they belonged to their elite troops - this time it should be the Holy Stone Knights who were sent. But it's a little strange for them to make this statement, it doesn't seem to be necessary to demonstrate, Highland Knights

The current status is not a day's work, and their current actions, no matter how you look at it, make people feel a little too enthusiastic.

But in fact, from the beginning of the battle of Ampesel, these knights behaved a little too strangely. They could have avoided wading through the muddy waters in the first place, and it didn't do them any good. If it was simply because of his grandfather's status that they somehow joined the war, Brando felt that it was a bit too much to say.

However, he could not guess the Highland Knight's thoughts for a moment, so he did not mention anything about it in the letter.

He was concerned with something else - the whole battle plan, in fact, was his handiwork. It was with great difficulty that he persuaded everyone through Her Royal Highness the Princess to take the Blood Staff as their first target. It has to be said that the Eruin people of this era seem to have some kind of deep-seated prejudice against Madara, believing that the kingdom of darkness is only good at small fights on the border, even if it is experienced

After the War of the Black Roses, most people thought the same way. In fact, in the war a year ago, it seems that the undead did not penetrate deep into the border of Eruin, and the war only stayed in the border area, and the only ones who really fought against Madara were the Van Mill Legion, the Southern Legion and the Highland Knights, so in the eyes of most people. extremely

In the eyes of those who have fought against them, Madara belongs to the kind of image that can be compared to robbers and bandits.

Whether it was the royal party or the Grand Duke Vieiro, most people's eyes were on Jean Denel, and in their opinion, what they had to do was to defeat Count Jean Denel first, and then after the Blood Staff lost its internal response, it would naturally retreat. Even the Highland Knights are of the same opinion. They have the most fights with Madara and the deepest prejudices. The Blood Staff once swept through

Karasu, but in fact, it is just an exaggeration, the blade of the Blood Staff has not swept half of the area of Cadirego, and is blocked by the Highland Knights west of Silver Horse City, and then goes around the Golden City to the south, and then returns to Madara. They knew best how capable those skeletons were.

On the contrary, Count Jean Denel is a henchman of Eruin, and once Count Denel is defeated, the chaos in the south is basically half calmed. And for the Grand Duke of Vieiro. There is even a personal vendetta with Jean Denel.

The only one who supported Brando was Eco, but the knight maniac was simply unwilling to fight a civil war, and in his opinion, he should teach the invaders a lesson first.

But in the end, Brando convinced everyone that Count Denel might flee to Mardala even if he was defeated.

Although it didn't matter to Eruin whether to let Count Denel flee or not, this reason convinced the Grand Duke of Viero, who was definitely the last person to see Count Denel escape and ascend to heaven, and the hatred between the Viero family and the Jean Denel family had been formed since several generations ago, and it can be said that it was an undying hatred. And the Grand Duke of Viero

Since they had switched to supporting Brando's plan, and there was Echo, the representative of Lantonylan over there, the Highland Knights no longer objected, and in the end, Brando's plan was unanimous—

Ambush the Blood Staff first.

This battle plan basically copied the example of the day when Eco and Jura led the combined forces to ambush the Blood Staff, and the location of the ambush was still chosen in Sloffa, the most advantageous terrain. And it can be said that they now have an advantage over the previous ones, because in the past, Eco could not find a way into the Silman region, and had to sneak in from the northern edge of the Tosankad Forest, which resulted in a lot of wasted time. but

This time, Brando convinced Corvin and his party to open the door for them, and now that the hills of Sylman were almost under their control, they could unknowingly put a large army under the nose of the Blood Staff.

But it was at this time that Eco ran into trouble.

According to the original plan, the combined forces of Viero and Lantoniland would not attack the Blood Staff until Tonigel's army arrived, but by the time of the attack was still several hours away, the knights under the Grand Duke of Viero had begun to hold back. Eco himself hadn't figured out what was going on, but Macaro and his party realized the problem, Viero

The Duke's men apparently used the Blood Staff as a fish on the chopping block, and they felt that the purpose of the battle plan proposed by the Count of Tonigel was simply to share the credit with them, for the simple reason that Lantoniland's army and the army of the Grand Duke Viero were almost twice as strong as the Blood Staff, and it was well known that the undead army was in fact inferior to the individual combat ability

of the human army.

That is, in the case of a two-fold gap in troops, and there is still a mental calculation or unintentionality, it is impossible to lose, so there is no need to wait for Tonigel's army to arrive.

Therefore, as soon as the army of blood rods came into their field of vision, these lords and knights from the local area began to move.

When Macaro and the others reported the situation, the knight fanatic suddenly became a big one. He never dreamed that such a situation would occur, in fact, not only him, but also Brando himself. Brando only remembered the ambush battle in history, but forgot that the Eruin nobles of this era were not among the princesses of Griffiin more than ten years later

The army established by Freya after the revival of the kingdom, and more importantly, the historical Lantoniland coalition army was actually led by Eco, but this time due to the intervention of him and Her Royal Highness the Princess, the Grand Duke of Viero sent far more troops than in history, so now on the frontal battlefield, what Eco said does not count, which is very doubtful.

You must know that this is not an army in the normal sense, this is an alliance of nobles, usually when the dukes are at war with each other, there are often things where the following retainers act privately, not to mention that it is still a coalition of two dukes, in fact, when the news was passed to Eco, the knight lords under the Grand Duke of Vieiro had already begun to act.
