On the night after Jason launched a final assault on Dede and Panik was bogged down, a mutiny broke out at Baria Pass.

With a deputy commander named Cecil, he united many nobles and nobles, and led more than 10,000 warriors in the Barya Pass to rebel against Atum.

And the army stationed at the Barya Pass this time was selected and gathered by him.

They controlled another group of army commanders in the Barya Pass as quickly as possible, and obtained from them the command of all the troops in the Barya Pass, a total of 13,000 soldiers.

Of the entire Pass Fortress, only Atum's Guards did not fall into his hands, but this guard was only 500 men.

But when they entered the house where Atum lived, they did not find Atum himself, and even his five hundred guards disappeared.

This sent Cecil into a brief panic, having served under Atum for more than a decade and was well aware of the horrors of this fine commander.

In other words, his rebellion was already expected by Atum, but why did he turn a blind eye and let himself bring all his troops to the Baria Pass, and why did he give himself the opportunity to mutiny?

It's just that Cecil knows very well that now is not the time to think about this, he has more important things to do at the moment.

That night, the gate of the Baria Pass slowly opened, and an army in the distance took advantage of the night to enter the Barya Pass quickly, and they would leave here at dawn tomorrow, but they were not advancing into the interior of the White Sword Province.

A total of 15,000 soldiers will pounce on Lucca along the border of the three provinces early tomorrow morning, targeting the army led by Jason, who is engaged in a battle with Pannik.

But the plan had been deviated, and Panick's army had been defeated, and now even if it was not possible to destroy Jason's army, he had to hold them back and wait for reinforcements from home.

An advanced army of 50,000 men consisting of private soldiers of the nobles from all over the country had reached the province of Coz, south of the province of Geran, and in less than a month they would reach the already fallen Baria Pass.

"Baron Donte, I have a piece of advice for you. ”

Before leaving, Cecil found Baron Donte, but his expression was not very good, because Baron Donte had deprived him of most of his military power after coming to the Baria Pass, leaving only the right to control the 1,000 army.

Even the girl, who looked to be only about twenty years old, and whose name was Audrey, had control over an army of two thousand, and Cecil would stay with her at the Baria Pass after the departure of Baron Donter.

"It turned out to be Captain Cecil, what do you have to say?"

Baron Donte put down his task, explained a few more words to one of the guards, and then turned to him with an eager face on his face.

"Atum fled, and I suspect he had anticipated my rebellion. Cecil said this with his fists clenched, and he felt like a monkey being played around by him.

"You leaked the news before?" Baron Donter's eager expression vanished, and what remained was complete indifference, he said in a cold tone.

"Absolutely not, and I'm still wondering. ”

Cecil gritted his teeth and said that he didn't know where he had gone wrong.

"I want to remind you that in addition to the thirteen,000 soldiers who have fallen into your hands, there are at least nine thousand troops that can be gathered in the White Sword Province now. ”

Although dissatisfied with Baron Donte's attitude, he continued to say that he was now on the ship of the province of Gelen, and it was impossible to turn back.

"It can't be!"

Baron Donte's face changed drastically, and he exclaimed: "How can there be so many troops in the White Sword Province, even if all those nobles are combined, it is impossible to have so many soldiers, this is the north, not the rest of the kingdom!"

"You underestimate Atum too much, although the White Sword Province is not the richest province in the north, his military power is definitely second only to the Lucca Province, and before Jason went to the north, his military power was the strongest. ”

Cecil sneered, he had planned to leave Atum at the Baria Pass, so that no matter how strong the White Sword Province was, it would be useless, but he fled.

"I see, you can go back. "Baron Donte's face turned pale, and he wanted to shove the heads of those intelligence men into their own ass!

After Cecil left, he called Audrey again, and his face was solemn: "Audrey, tomorrow after I leave with the army, you immediately leave the Baria Pass with your general guard, and I will order Bink to take over your mission." ”

"Why?Father?!Didn't we already say it?" Audrey's face was full of disbelief, and she even called out her usual name.

"The plan couldn't keep up with the changes, and our plan was frozen. ”

Baron Donte's face was ugly, and finally he got up and kicked over the table in front of him, and couldn't help but scold: "This useless Cecil!

Then he told Audrey about the accident.

"No, I'm not going back!

After listening to this, Audrey's face was full of stubbornness, and her good-looking eyes looked directly at Baron Donte without blinking: "If I become a general who escapes, how can I take your place in the future?"

“......”

Under the attack of her eyes, Baron Donte sighed, he really had no way to deal with his daughter, especially what she said was very reasonable.

"I'll leave you another thousand soldiers, and if there's a crisis at the Baria Pass, I hope you'll hold out until the Earl of Milne arrives, and if you can't hold on, retreat, sometimes there's no shame in taking a step back. ”

"Thank you, Father. ”

In the early morning of the next day, 14,000 soldiers, led by Baron Donte, left the Baria Pass and marched westward, leaving Audrey with another thousand soldiers to guard the Baria Pass, and the general named Bink to assist her.

But what he didn't know was that as his army left the Barya Pass, a gaze caught in their movements.

In the mountains northeast of the Baria Pass, a man in gray armor with hundreds of soldiers quietly watched them leave, and it turned out to be the missing commander of the Atum army.

"It's time for us to go back and get ready, I don't want to mess things up and be punished by Princess Helena. He chuckled and turned to lead the soldiers away.
