Chapter 259: Deputy Commander

Message from the king came.

On the third day of entering the Skad Mountains, the King's army discovered several forts set up by Victor's forces, which had been repaired for more than two months and had taken over many hills.

In the fortress on the hilltop, countless pools of resurrection have appeared, and those skeleton monsters that have been destroyed on the battlefield are constantly resurrecting through this place. A large number of undead infested more than a hundred large and small towns near Scud, much to the anger of the king's army.

In the north and south of the Skad mountains, there are more than 200 small towns like Palaya that Shirley's father Grenor used to govern, and now half of them have fallen in the blink of an eye, and this is worth it, so that in the past, the Principality of Stormwind will be reduced to a ghost country.

King Sirnaul's fears were justified, and in fact, this happened to the north of the mountains of Skad in the previous Principality of Storm. The entire north of the Scud Mountains became Victor's territory.

After Alan received the news that Stormwind City might be besieged again, it didn't take long for King Shengnuo to know about it, and in the face of many things that happened along the way, King Shengnuo knew very well that he wanted to personally lead his troops south to recover the glory of the Golden City, and I am afraid that he had to run aground temporarily.

However, as a monarch, since King Shengnuo has already led his troops out, it is naturally impossible to return in vain, and doing so will damage the reputation of a king very much. So, King San Giulnaul made his decision in the mountains of Skade.

Enriquez and the Dragon Knight of Caydon received the king's order and led an army of 600,000 to continue southward, with the goal of recapturing the Golden City and the lost territory of the steppe within three months. The king of San Giulnault was stationed in the mountains, taking advantage of the shortest time possible, recovering the lost territory, and then leading a large army to quickly return to Stormwind Town to defend it.

Stormwind is the capital of King Sirnaul, and if it were to be taken by an army of skeletons, the consequences would be devastating. Even King San Giuliaul was willing to compromise his reputation, intending to leave 80,000 troops in the Skader region, while he himself led a large army back to Stormwind City, and King San Giulnaul had to ensure that he would return there before the skeleton army re-encircled the kingdom.

In this way, the communication mechanism before the battle is particularly important. Within a week, Allen's team had extremely close contact with the King's army, and finally, King Shengnuo immediately promoted Allen in the army based on the opinions of many parties, and appointed him as the deputy commander of the Southern Theater of the Principality of Stormwind, with full responsibility for the battle in the Skader mountains.

Deputy Commander of the Southern Theater of Operations of the Principality of Storm, in such a position, in the entire Raspar grassland in the south of the Principality, only Archduke Enriquez is taller than Allen. In addition, the commander of the Berkeley Legion, who guards the vast western region of the Principality of Stormwind, and the father of the Dragon Knight of Caydon, his rank is only 1.5 levels higher than Allen.

Allen's rise from a baron of the Raspar steppe to Raspar's military second-in-command is not only related to Allen's outstanding performance in the Golden City and Stormwind City crisis, but also because Allen's actions in the Skader Mountains this time represent King San Giuliault. Alan led the army in the name of the king, and his status was too low to reflect the glory of the royal family.

As a result, Allen's footsteps were temporarily bound in the mountains of Skader. After another three days, Allen's troops merged with the King's army. King Sirnaul met for the first time Mr. Warlock, who had made a name for himself in the Duchy of Stormwind, and the Frost Dragon, the guardian of the Duchy.

"Thank you for all you do for this country." King San Giulnaul was in his forties, tall, handsome and majestic. After a day in the army with Allen, King San Giul left an order to help the Duchy pacify the Skader region, and after that, the King's army quickly moved north, just to return to Stormwind in the shortest possible time.

King Shengnuo originally intended to leave 80,000 soldiers for Allen, but when he saw that Allen brought 55,000 elite soldiers from Stormwind City, he was overjoyed, so he only left 30,000 infantry and 15,000 cavalry for Allen, making up 100,000, and the remaining 200,000 soldiers and horses were led by the king himself and returned to Stormwind City.

Before leaving, Alan told the king his opinion, the Skader Mountains are an important passage between the northern lands and the Raspar steppes, and with the further attack of the abyssal forces, the status of this place will be more prominent, and 100,000 soldiers will have little impact on the situation here. The Principality of Storm now has a population of more than one billion people and more than 130 races, and in the future, I am afraid that tens of millions of troops will need to be hoarded here.

King San Giulnaul took this to heart. In the past two months, the Principality of Storm has suffered heavy losses, and the army of the kingdom has repeatedly encountered problems such as poor communication and information blockage, which is a crisis-style slap in the face for a monarch who has the heart to govern the country.

It was a war of the nobility. Those who can't see the direction and are confused must be led by the king.

In addition, before leaving, King San Giulnaul also agreed to one of Alan's requests, as long as the towns in the northern region of Skader were recovered, Eren could go south alone, go to the Golden City or return to the territory, and this area would be governed by the king with other people.

At the same time, the king even promised that as long as Alan solved the problem of the Skad Mountains and mobilized troops from the territory to rescue the Golden City, then Allen would not be deprived of the title of deputy commander of the Southern Theater.

After arranging for 100,000 troops to be stationed in the Skader area, Allen's heart could not be calm for a long time. In the previous life, Eren was just a great lord of a bronze-level city, and with the elite legions around him, Eren had the ability to challenge the bloody dungeon as a third-order mage.

And in this life, Allen became a military governor of the largest principality in the north, but such a status does not know if it can bring greater achievements to Allen?

A year ago, Alan was just a slave in the mines under a small lord in the Skader region, and a year later, Alan led an army of 100,000 troops stationed here, and lords from all over the country sent troops to help, nearly 200,000 or so troops, hoarded in the mountains, the goal, to clear the skeleton fortress and regain the lost territory.

With an impressive number of skeleton armies and massacres in the Skader region, it will take some time to retake the town and restore the rule of the nobles and grand knights. Although Alan had a confrontation with the Abyss, he didn't dare to be too confident, and for the sake of the Skader region, Alan left himself 2 months.

At this time, Alan has been away from the territory for more than 2 months, and he can't go back in the short term, so how to establish contact with his territory has become a big problem. The distance from the Skader Mountains to the Clément region is long, and there are many things that may not be solved for a while...... (To be continued.) )
