Chapter 109: The War Begins
The next morning, after the soldiers had breakfast, the 11th to 20th numbered warrior regiments marched in two directions in two parts with their belongings, and the 11th to 17th regiments marched slowly towards the city of Morrill three hundred miles away, without baggage caravans, not even auxiliary troops, all of them were regular warriors.
300 miles, with the physical fitness of a first-class warrior, one day is enough.
Maple Leaf County suddenly mobilized its army, and the entire ten legions marched towards Morrill City, and of course the spies of other principalities in Maple Leaf County knew about it immediately, and frantically passed the news back.
One by one, the messages were passed back, and several principalities were immediately shocked.
The county seat of the Duchy of Rabit, in a small study.
"Their army training is done? How can it be so fast? How much combat power can such a thing be? A middle-aged man frowned, looking at the information on the table that had been transmitted from Black Mist City.
"Yes, it's only been three months, and it's a little too difficult to make a group of farmers a qualified soldier." Another old man with thinning hair also nodded and let out a chuckle.
"I think this should be a normal transfer, no need to make such a fuss, right?" The last young man in his twenties also continued.
"Ladies and gentlemen, don't you think this information is strange? They mobilized nearly seven legions to Morrill City, and three legions to Tanao City, the deep meaning of which is worth pondering! Archduke Bill Rabbit was very young, looking no more than thirty years old, sitting behind a desk and looking at the three ministers in the room, and said solemnly.
"What do you think, Grand Duke?" The middle-aged man who spoke first looked up at Grand Duke Bill, and the other two couldn't help but look over.
"Huh." Grand Duke Bill smiled first, the corners of his mouth curled up with sarcasm, "These ten legions are to defend the three principalities of Blue Yan, Proud Wolf, and Antun, which is why there are seven legions heading to Morrill City, where is the most stressful." As we all know, in order to build the so-called warrior corps, Maple Leaf County has transferred a lot of strong people to fill in the past, resulting in the weakness of local troops, once there is a war, the combat effectiveness of those places can be imagined, even if Morrill City has an army of 400,000, how much role it can play, everyone knows very well. ”
"And in the Black Mist City, there are still ten legions that have not moved, what do these ten legions want to do, can't you think of it?" Grand Duke Bill let out a few chuckles.
"Are they going to attack us or the Principality of Dongming?" The old man with thinning hair was taken aback and exclaimed, "Isn't Maple Leaf County afraid of attacking it in groups?" ”
Fear?
Can one person beat Jace and Leo, two strong people who die and surrender, will they be afraid of these problems?
Afraid of a crowd attacking it?
It's a joke.
"I don't see it, a deeper consciousness, I think Maple Leaf County wants to swallow our Principality of Rabit and the Principality of Dongming in one bite, Rock Fire City does not send troops to reinforce and strengthen the defense, I understand, after all, where is it far away from the Principality of Proud Wolf, when there is a war, where the attack is not useful, but the other party did not send troops to reinforce the defense, what did you think of?" Grand Duke Bill glanced back at the small map hanging on the wall behind him, the location of the Rock Fire City was right between the territory of the Proud Wolf and the Duchy of Dongming.
"Shhh
The three people in the room gasped and whispered, "Maple Leaf County's intention is to attack our two principalities of Rabit and Dongming at the same time, with such a big appetite?" ”
Rantis didn't expect that someone on his side would guess his intentions just by moving, if it weren't for the fact that he knew that the people on his side were very loyal, he would probably suspect that someone else had leaked his military plan to the Duchy of Rabit.
Grand Duke Bill can inherit this position with the strength of the sixth level, of course, he has a strong sense of smell in this regard, and he has excellent foresight, so among several heirs, he finally won the position of Grand Duke of the Duchy of Rabit.
"So, Archduke, what do we need to do?" The old man asked.
"Of course, we should immediately notify the Dongming Principality and let them prepare, when the time comes, whether Maple Leaf County is attacking one of us at the same time, or attacking at the same time, we must immediately launch a counterattack, delay the pace of the other party, and prevent them from successfully occupying our city, as long as the war is delayed, it will not be either of us that will be uncomfortable, it will only be Maple Leaf County, understand?" Grand Duke Bill said as he looked at the map with a smile on his face.
The three of them nodded hurriedly, left their seats one after another, and went to arrange affairs.
The sudden transfer of the army of Maple Leaf County made the Principality of Antun very nervous, originally in the location of Tanao City, Maple Leaf County had more than 50,000 troops, and now it has sent three legions of 30,000 people, adding up to 80,000 people, which is enough to fight a medium-sized war, of course the Principality of Antun does not want to have such a war, after all, they also have enemies of other principalities, if Maple Leaf County attacks, then the logistical pressure will inevitably be too great.
So they also immediately conscripted troops, hoping to scare Maple Leaf County.
However, for a few days, Maple Leaf County did not attack, nor did it send people out to ridicule, but only defended in the field passes, which made the Duchy of Antun a little puzzled.
However, Lan Yan and Proud Wolf, the two powerful principalities with the most cities, do not have much to worry about, they occupy a small ore vein, and their financial and population are not comparable to other principalities, and they are not afraid of the seven additional legions of Maple Leaf County at all.
Originally, there were 400,000 soldiers in Morrill City, so what if there were 70,000 more, could Maple Leaf County still be able to fight?
And for a few days, Maple Leaf County didn't make any movement, but Dongming and Rabit, the two high-level officials of the principality, were sneering, especially Grand Duke Bill, he knew that Maple County's move was to paralyze himself and others, but at the moment when he relaxed, he suddenly attacked, but would he give them such a chance?
It has been five days since Wright Buyun went to the military camp to offer condolences and make plans, and Wright Buyun basically didn't ask what Lantis was doing, fighting wars, and so on, so he didn't plan to ask, just practice quietly and wait for news.
Late at night on the sixth day......
In the huge military camp twenty miles away from Black Mist City, the remaining ten legions gathered quietly on the barracks training ground, and then quietly and directly took advantage of the night to go north......
Three hours later, the 1st to 6th Legions of Maple Leaf County arrived at the barracks twenty miles north of North Rock Castle and began to rest, while seizing the time to rest.
In the early morning, the sky showed the belly of the white fish, the air with the unique smell of earth flying in the wind, the soldiers and soldiers in the barracks had already woken up, more than 100,000 soldiers and soldiers washed their faces, ate a little dry food, the first to sixth legions set off first, riding war horses towards the Dongming Principality.
Moreover, these six legions still have a lot of warriors running against the siege ladders made of steel.
On the earth, a full 60,000 warriors rushed like a white tide towards the small city called 'Balon' under the Principality of Dongming, a distance of eighty miles, and it only took an hour to reach it.
An army of all warriors, the excitement is too strong.
A first-level warrior, the body has completely broken through the limits of the human body, if it is a sprint state, 80 miles can be completed in a maximum of twenty minutes.
Meishan Pass, at seven o'clock, the soldier on duty standing on the pass yawned sleepily and stretched his waist, suddenly, a soldier on duty shouted heartbreakingly: "There is a situation......
The sleepy soldier on duty came to his senses and looked up into the distance, where smoke and dust were billowing like a tornado, and yellow mud and dust were wafting above the sky, which shocked the faces of dozens of people at the pass.
Soon, there was a tremor in the earth, like thunder, ringing in their hearts, and the soldiers knew very well that it was the sound of the hooves of a large number of horses.
"Enemy Attack ......"
"Woo~~~~"
A trumpet sounded, and the whole pass was in chaos.
"Herald, quick, send a message to Balon City, Maple Leaf County has called." The general of the pass town roared, quickly put on the battle armor, and hurried up to the wall of the pass, looking at the enemy in the distance, which was at least in number and tens of thousands.
"Quick, kick the walls, get the stones ready."
"Quick, hurry up, stop the door with a blockade stone."
"Quick, quick, quick, haven't you eaten?"
In the pass, the officers on the side of the Principality of Dongming were shouting and directing the soldiers.
On the side of Maple Leaf County, hundreds of places have been reached under the pass, Rantis looked at this pass like a small fortress, and his face sneered, the Principality of Dongming was afraid of Maple County (Ice Blue Principality) before, so it built such a majestic pass to defend against war.
The normal garrison, three divisions, 30,000 people, plus other auxiliary personnel, the total number reached 50,000.
"Commander Lantis, the other party is obviously prepared, as if he knows that we are coming!" Otto rode a war horse, his whip pointed to the Meishan Pass hundreds of meters away, frowned and said: "You see, the other party is a little chaotic, but it is chaotic and not panicked, many soldiers have armor on their bodies, and there is still time to prepare other defensive items, which is obviously not normal." ”
"Be prepared, we can only attack now, after all, the Principality of Dongming is mainly to defend our Maple Leaf County, and there are more than 200,000 troops in this direction, accounting for most of the military strength of the Principality of Dongming, we can only fight a time difference, and we can't wait for them to react and reinforce it." Landis also frowned, the Duchy of Dongming actually saw through his plan, how could this be possible, unless...... They were notified.
But now he didn't have to think about it, and waved his hand: "Prepare to attack!" ”
Under the transmission of the military order, the soldiers quickly launched a battle formation, although this pass is huge, it cannot allow tens of thousands of troops to be deployed at the same time, and a legion is tightly expanded, and there is not much space left.
The pass was flanked by steep mountain walls that ordinary warriors could not climb.
"The archers brigade is ready to ......"
The Legion Commanders roared.
The number of archers and warriors reached thousands, and they immediately lined up in formation, followed behind the warriors holding shields, and advanced towards the Meishan Pass.
Archer warriors, each legion with two brigades, were an oppressive force.
