Chapter Seventy-Eight: Preparing for Action

Outside the Golden City, the weather is clear.

Less than an hour before the gates opened, Alan rode the giant wolf of the north to a private forest in the forest. This forest farm covers an area of more than 10,000 acres and is the actual private property of Mrs. Wen Li under the name of Avalo.

Beside him, the old brother Odro rode a short-legged horse this time, not to fight, but to hurry, and as a berserker, Odro still preferred to fight on the ground. The dwarf's charging ability is not inferior to that of most four-legged animals, and now in this team, I am afraid that only Kaidon's earthwalking dragon can match him.

Immediately afterward, Master Crow arrived. Mr. Mage was wearing a cyan robe with white trim, this is Crow? One of the best pieces of equipment in Nadodi can increase wind attribute damage by 25% and water attribute damage by 10%, which can be regarded as the best of the best.

Eren handed him twenty Wind Magic Stones and twenty Water Magic Stones.

Crowe? Master Nadodi didn't accept it at first, but he was reluctant to accept Alan's gift. This is very helpful for Mage Crow's strength!

Walking into the farmhouse of the forest farm, Alan met two middle-aged men with white beards.

The two men were tall, about two meters tall, and looked to be in their forties, but their beards were white, their hair was messy, and they wore old clothes.

"Hello, honorable sage!" Two white-bearded middle-aged men greeted Allen, staring at the badge on Allen's chest.

"Hello, honorable Mr. Druid, in you I feel the power of nature."

These two are the second-order high-level druids that Madame Wen Li invited for Allen.

Druids are a powerful adventurous class on the Divine Grace Continent, which is relatively rare compared to warriors, knights, and swordsmen, and can be compared to warlocks. The druids revered nature, worshipped the gods of nature, and emphasized the harmony between various races of animals and plants.

Druids are skilled in transformation, healing, and have magical abilities to control fire, earth, and wind, summoning eagles, crows, wolves, vines, and even ghosts to their own devices, and sometimes transforming themselves into wolves or bears to gain wild powers and fight their enemies.

On the Divine Grace Continent, the praise for strong dwarves is that "a few dwarves can overthrow a principality".

There are also praises for the druids.

"Look, the druids can bring the desert to life."

This illustrates the strength of the druids and their protection of nature.

In the druid's room, ten first-order senior priests in white robes were praying to the shrine with their eyes closed. Alan walked up to them and greeted them gently. A second-order priest had a brief conversation with Allen.

Alan asked, "What are your mounts?" ”

As the Commander, Alan must understand the characteristics of each risk-taking class in order to better organize his operations.

The second-order priest told Allen, "We have a second-order 'Icefield Kodomon', which is used for marching in peacetime, and can be used to attack fortifications in battle. ”

Kodomon? This is one of the few magical beasts on the Divine Grace Continent that obviously has the blood of a dragon, and the siege ability of the combat-type Kodomon can be ranked in the top 15 among all known mounts on the Divine Grace Continent. With Kodomon in charge, Alan will be able to have more confidence when facing Lily's summoning altar.

"How many units of grain and grass does the Icefield Beast need to eat in a day?" Alan asked again.

"100 units, Frost Grass or Cold Dew Grass are its food." The second-order mage replied.

Alan silently recorded in his heart and said no more.

In addition, the hundred knights mentioned by Avalo were also in the forest farm, uniformly wearing blue and black armor, armed with guns and swords, and riding black horses. One hundred cavalrymen are divided into ten teams, and the captain is directly responsible to Allen, who holds the personal token of Lady Wen Li.

When Allen came to them for the first time, he was stunned, and couldn't help but secretly say: What a good cavalry team! I couldn't help but feel a little excited, and my confidence in capturing the Dark Elf Village also increased a little.

Immediately after Della and Joy arrived, Joy still riding his golden lion, while Della rode a very beautiful red horse, with fifteen warriors behind her, each riding a horse.

After many years, Master Crow saw the child next door again, and he didn't expect to change into a powerful warrior with an awe-inspiring posture who could subdue the second-order lion king, and tears flowed from Master Crow's slightly old face.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Mr. Hunter, the steward of Morel House, also came.

After meeting, Alan was surprised: "Mr. Hunt, why are you here?" ”

Steward Hunter smiled: "Mrs. Wen Li thought that there were probably many things to be taken care of on Mr. Allen's side, so she sent me to help. ”

"Thank you, Mrs. Wen Li!" "Indeed, as you can see, there are a lot of things that need to be done here. It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Hunt. ”

"Brother Allen, I can tell you clearly, now that the Earl's Court has dismissed me, from now on, you can take care of my salary!" Hunt said.

Is there such a thing? As soon as Alan heard this, he immediately understood that this team now belonged to the hidden power of Madame Wen Li's person, and if Mr. Hunt participated in it, it was obviously no longer suitable to return to the Earl's Court. Fortunately, there was a lack of an experienced butler by his side, and Mr. Hunt came, so he didn't have to look for it anymore.

Leading a combat team is not simply directing a few people forward. Along the way, everyone's food, lodging, fodder for mounts, and salaries for the team are all places that the commander needs to consider. Take the more than 100 horses in the forest as an example, after taking them out, they are particular about when to eat forage and how much to eat, and what kind of tools are used to transport people's food and mounts' grain and grass, and every step needs to be done in advance.

It is impossible for this team to forage for food in the forest for the next ten days, if this is the case, Allen will not be able to lead the organizational discipline of this team, and it will be difficult to establish personal prestige, which will have a very big impact on future battles.

Regarding the military salary, Alan had already made it easy for Mrs. Wen Li to discuss many days ago, and Mrs. Wen Li intended to exercise the combat ability of her team through this battle for the dark elf village, so she gave Alan great support, and had already entrusted Avalo to secretly allocate enough military rations and forage from the Morel family for "five hundred troops, one month's use".

Alan and Mrs. Wen Li have not actually met much, and such support may not be anything to an earl, but for Allen, this is almost everything. I just came forward to lobby, and I didn't pay a penny, and I got all this.

Aren couldn't think of anything other than trust and love.

Therefore, the dissatisfaction with Mrs. Wen Li's favor in my heart increased a little, and I secretly made up my mind that I must repay this earl.

At noon, the Berkeley cavalry arrived, also a hundred people, led by the captain of the guard whom Alan had seen that day.

The captain of the guard is named Buck and is a personal knight in Berkeley House. The 1st Cavalry Battalion of the Cayton Dragon Knights is a garrison under the Golden City, not a private property of the Berkeley family, so there are no cavalry battalions present today.

Captain Buck explained to Alan about Cayton's situation again, and said bluntly: "Lord Cayton still can't get out because of the affairs of the camp, but he will arrive as soon as possible, and I wish Mr. Alan success in advance!" “

For the arrival of Buck and the others, Allen's heart was full of gratitude.

When Mr. Hunt arrived, he brought with him more than two dozen highly skilled cooks, and without waiting for Allen's orders, he had already begun to prepare lunch two hours before noon, and by the time the lunch was served, all the food had been prepared.

A bowl of thick vegetable bone broth per person, a solid piece of baked naan and a large bowl of white pork.

White pigs are extremely common in the world of divine grace, and there will always be a few piglets raised in ordinary farmhouse estates, and after 10 months, they can harvest nearly 1,000 catties of meat, which is an absolute delicacy for civilians and low-level adventurers.

Alan, Odero, Dale, Joey, and Crow did not open a small stove alone, but ate this lunch with all the warriors present in the huge farmhouse of the forest farm.

Among them, Alan alone drank eleven bowls of soup, ate eight huge baked naan cakes, and swallowed ten bowls of meat, which was jaw-dropping. Before he set off, this miraculous leader had already attracted everyone's attention, and his secret path was extraordinary.

In fact, the vast majority of people present had heard of Alan's deeds.

In particular, the cavalry regiment led by Buck relished Allen's deeds of rescuing the Cayton Knights, as if he had seen it with his own eyes.

In his previous life, Eren had rich experience in leading legions, and had set countless brilliant records, leading hundreds of people to attack the elite reconnaissance force that chased and killed the Banshee of the Night Doris, leading thousands of people to defend the canyon, leading dozens of legions to defend the plains, and so on.

Now that he is leading a team again, Alan obviously feels like a lifetime away - really a lifetime away.

At the moment, this team, plus logistics and command, has a total of 248 people, which is not even the number of a knight battalion, but such a team, Alan has high hopes, believing that they will be able to help him capture the dark elf village.

Among the 248 people, the actual combat force was only about 220 people, but it was divided into three forces that were unfamiliar with each other, and on this first day of assembly, Allen was not in a hurry to set off immediately.

After lunch, Alan made his official appearance, and in the posture of a warlock, he made the first march mobilization of the team, explaining to the warriors the future march plan, battle position, and strategic goals.

"Everything, in order to retake the Dark Elf Village!" When Eren said this, his mana surged.

A body full of blood, 1.8 meters tall, flapping huge wings, like a demon with a hideous face summoned imp out at the right time, the northern giant wolf roared in the sky, provoking the golden lion and the Kodo beast to also howl angrily, and two hundred horses neighed.

The scenes were superimposed, the momentum was amazing, and the blood of the warriors was mobilized at once.

Alan did not set off that day, with the help of Hunter, Allen re-edited the book for the more than 200 people, sorted out the team formation, figured out the characteristics of each team, and after remembering everything, wrote a letter, which was sent to the small town of Palaya by carrier pigeon, and agreed to meet at a time.

The next day, Alan did not immediately give the order to set off, but held several competition training in the forest farm, and in the competition with each other, the team of more than 200 people communicated with each other, and finally became no stranger and had the conditions to march together.

(Recommended tickets are a bit too few, friends, if you have a ticket, support it!! )
