Chapter 189: The Great War Begins

Ten minutes later, Kesel's army was only a kilometer away from the temporary station, and although they could not see the clear appearance of their soldiers, the tens of thousands of troops still maintained their original order even after a forced march, and even Nicholas had to admire Kaiser's ability to lead the troops.

Nicholas waited quietly for the arrival of the Kaisel army. The warriors were already gearing up, and Singh and other magicians were ready for battle, just waiting for Nicholas's orders.

Kesel's army advanced a hundred meters, but Nicholas gave no order to fight, and Kesel's army advanced another hundred meters, and there were only eight hundred meters left from the main army, and Nicholas still showed no signs of marching.

He needed a chance to get his mages to unleash a powerful wave of magical attacks!

In addition, if his own army moves rashly and the formation is chaotic, it will be a disaster for him if the other party's magician is hidden in the army.

Kesel's army finally came to a halt seven hundred meters ahead.

This distance could not be said to be far, and Nicholas could even feel the same high-spirited momentum coming from the opposing army.

At this moment, a tall fiery red figure was running quickly towards Nicholas.

It is a magical beast, a blood pupil horse that is rarely seen on the continent with the same strong speed and defense.

"Hahaha, how is General Nicholas doing?"

There was a person sitting on the back of the sixth-level demonic beast blood pupil horse, and he was laughing heartily, and his voice made every warrior hear it clearly, and it was obvious that he had also used his internal strength. This person is naturally Keisel.

Kaisel was one of the best generals of the Abomato Kingdom, and was stationed on the northern border all year round, and was very familiar with the northern border. He did not fall behind in several battles with Nicholas, and was considered by Nicholas to be one of the most difficult generals on the border.

Kaisel was forty years old, tall and large, with a tiger's back and an ape's arm. At this time, he was fully armed, and he was completely a fierce and fierce general. But Nicholas knows that many strongmen are actually inconspicuous, and the "rough people" in front of him are also not simple.

Kaiser, who seems to have developed limbs and big nerves, is actually a general with both civil and military skills, and his wisdom is no less than that of a literati strategist. And I heard that this person started as an ordinary soldier and rose step by step by virtue of his military merits. It can be said that he survived the pile of dead people, and relied on strength and wisdom to get to where he is now.

Such a character is naturally not an ordinary person. In several battles with him, Nicholas found that Keisel was a guy who had a good sense of the big picture and knew the essence of the art of war!

"Your King Vetut is really good at picking the time!, if we hadn't been prepared, we would have known nothing until your Kessel army was overwhelmed!" Nicholas smiled, his tone sarcastic.

Kaisel is really an old fox, and he didn't react to Nicholas's sarcasm, but he still didn't move, and snorted again, "Sneak attack? With you, General Nicholas, in charge, even if we are fast, can we succeed in a sneak attack?"

"In that case, Kaiser, you brazenly came to call for battle, and you didn't look at your own strength, aren't you afraid that I will serve you in one pot?"

Nicholas was talking to Kaisel, hoping to delay time, but he waited anxiously, hoping that the Spike Team would be able to determine the location of the opposing mage team as soon as possible.

Although Nicholas behaved quietly, Kaiser's judgment naturally figured out the reason for Nicholas's concern.

"Nicholas, you must have arranged for a magician to greet us in front of you, and you have piled up such a large number of soldiers in front of me just to scare me?"

Nicholas did not speak.

Kaisel seemed very proud, and said: "General Nicholas is worried about my magician? You can call your people back, I, Kaiser, don't talk in secret, and there is no magician in this operation." ”

Nicholas seemed to smile, raised his sword eyebrows, and said noncommittally: "Just the army behind you?"

Kaizer rode the Bloodpupil Horse, turned and ran backwards, "You'll see soon." I hope this is a face-to-face battle. ”

Kesel returned to the corps, and his troops began to march again. Now that he had told Nicholas that this time it would be a face-to-face fight, Kaisel didn't have to worry that Nicholas's magicians would attack his army.

Faced with the approach of the Kaisel army, the northern army became even more excited, eager to rush over immediately and fight the enemy.

Nicholas really withdrew Singh and the others quietly, although he didn't know why Keisel didn't send a magician, but since the other party explained what he said, Kaiser's personality Nicholas still believed, just as Keisel believed that Nicholas would not send a magician to deal with him at this time.

Just as Kaisel was approaching, suddenly a leader of the Spike Squad sent back a shocking news to Nicholas: Kaiser's 1,000 mounted dragons turned out to be all from the former Dragon Knights of Neo City!

The mounted dragon led by the leader was the mount of Hilario, the former supreme governor of Neo City, the sixth-order green dragon Richie! The spike team did not find out before, but after Kaisel's army marched again, a member of the spike team recognized this conspicuous green dragon at a glance with sharp eyes.

The discovery of this news forced Nicholas to reconsider Kesel's intentions.

Before coming to Neo City as the head of the Dragon Knights, Nicholas had been the head of the Heavy Knights of the Ace Legion. But just half a year later, the internal situation of the Northern Army suddenly changed, and the city of Neo, which had been extremely calm, suddenly made waves, and under the instigation and threat of the regimental commander Hilario, all the mount dragons and nearly a quarter of the dragoons fled with him and ran to the neighboring country of Apomato!

After the defection, the Northern Army was very moved, but fortunately, the adjustment work was done well, so that Apomatto did not have a chance. However, the empire still suffered extremely heavy losses! A thousand mounted dragons, even if they were not authentic direct dragons, but some subspecies of dragons of the fourth order or so, were extremely precious. Not even a mounted dragon can be measured in money, let alone a full thousand!

You must know that in order to catch or get these mount dragons, the empire not only paid a lot of gold coins, but also used a huge network of connections, and even sacrificed a lot of dragon hunters to establish the Neo City Dragon Knights Regiment among the five dragon knight corps!

It was in this worrying situation that the Empire sent Nicholas as the supreme commander of the empty Neo City Legion, tasked with forming a new dragon knight legion.

Therefore, in the past six months, in addition to transferring some subspecies of dragons from the other four dragon knight regiments and transferring some talents who are good at dragon taming, Nicholas has done his best to get a new subspecies of dragons. Fortunately, with the full assistance of the Empire, Neo City was finally successfully formed in half a year, and it regained 1,500 mount dragons.

However, compared with the thousand dragon knights led by Kaiser, the Dragon Knights of Neo City are inferior in terms of combat experience and tacit understanding between humans and dragons, which is a gap that cannot be made up in half a year.

At the moment, Kaisel's wishful thinking is clearly to let the Noqi Empire's own mount dragon kill each other, which is too cruel!

But Kaiser's army had already begun to move forward, and by the time it reached a hundred meters from Nicholas' garrison.

"What are you doing here, Kaiser?" asked Nicholas, pointing to the thousand mounted dragons.

"Since General Hilario has abandoned darkness and joined us in Abomato, these dragons naturally belong to our combat power. We have never doubted the character of General Hilario, but we can't feel the hearts of the more than 200 dragon knights who came with him, so it has been the original dragon knights of the empire who have been controlling these dragons all these years. Of course, there are always just chances, and in order to prevent these dragons from defecting, we have to do some small tricks to make these big guys obedient. ”

"Haha, Hilario has been thinking about it for a long time, and he took refuge in your Abomato, and then used these dragons as a greeting gift, so that he became the general Hilario you call him. However, now that these dragons have been dealt with by your king Vetut, with such indiscriminate means, I really wonder if it is Hilario's sorrow or Vetut's sorrow?"

After Nicholas finished speaking, his face turned pale, and he issued an order loudly: "The dragon knight rises into the air, the heavy cavalry strikes first, the infantry follows, and the warriors rush with me!" After speaking, he took the lead in riding his horse to kill the enemy.

Kesel was unhurried, and his troops began to move in an orderly manner. In the blink of an eye, the earth shook and the dust filled the plain, and the battle between the two sides began!
