146: Abyss
Woooooooo
The morning sun had just shone on the land, and the sound of trumpets continued to sound in all corners of the imperial capital.
Stomp stomp
Neat groups of soldiers, watched by civilians, marched into the distance.
Alan looked at the Imperial Capital army walking in front, and their southern army was arranged last.
"Are you ready for anything? We're going to go. Alan said to Carl behind him.
"It's all ready, we're ready to go. Karl's face was full of excitement, because they were about to usher in a big war involving hundreds of thousands of people, which was a rare opportunity for them soldiers in a remote town.
"Okay, let's wait here for orders. Alan patted his horse.
"Alan, you're all ready. Keith came from the side on his horse.
"Brother Case, we're all set. Alan said.
Keith was dressed in black armor, and immediately had a longbow and a few arrows hanging in addition to a sword.
"When are we leaving? Alan asked subconsciously.
Keith looked at the thousands of meters in front of him, and he smiled: "Don't worry, I got the news." The rebel forces have all crossed the Osbonu River, and they are now moving south, so I predict that we should set up a line in the Skyfall Valley to fight the enemy. The advance troops had already begun to build a fortress there. ”
Skyfall Valley!
Alan recalled this place, this place had been noticed by Alan when he looked at the map before, and it could be said that this was the last natural danger for the empire to face in the north except for the Osbonu River.
On both sides of the Tianluo Valley are thousands of high cliffs, which cannot be passed by the army, and only a long corridor of less than 100 meters in the middle can be used for people to pass through.
This long corridor is usually relatively wide for merchants and civilians to pass through, but if hundreds of thousands of troops pass through here, it will take a lot of effort.
And this barrier has been stretching for tens of kilometers. If the rebels did not choose to pass through here, it would take them at least twenty days to a month to reach the imperial capital. In this case, let's not talk about whether they can bypass it, even if they do, it is impossible to quickly determine the winner of this war. In ancient times, the war of this kind of cold weapon was at least possible for more than ten days to several months. With a total of 200,000 troops, Allen didn't believe that the rebel army had brought enough food for 200,000 troops and horses for more than two months.
Moreover, the longer their journey, the more vulnerable their supply lines became, and by that time, not to mention the attack of the imperial capital army, they themselves would have to have civil strife because of the problem of food.
So they can only attack from the Skyfall Valley.
However, once the Imperial Capital Army arranged a defensive line on the side of the Heavenly Fall Valley, it would be a fierce battle, and the Imperial Army was 150,000 more than the rebels in terms of numbers, plus the geographical disadvantage.
To tell the truth, this problem that anyone with a discerning eye can see, the sky of this war is steadily falling to the side of the Empire.
But why, did the rebels choose to attack in a hurry?
This is a question that bothers Allen very much.
"All of them, the Duke of Caesarbelia has an order, and all the soldiers in the south are immediately assembled and ready to go. ”
That's when the herald began to run over and give orders.
"Alan, let's get ready to go, in a few days we will see a big battle, you must not have seen it when you are young, this time it will open your eyes. Keith put on his helmet and smiled.
"Yes. Alan nodded silently.
The army in the south was quickly assembled, and compared with those imperial capital armies, the armies of these lords in various places can be said to be completely chaotic, and the ranks are all chaotic.
But the lords seemed to be used to it, and walked aside.
Alan looked at the Keith army next to him, Alan could clearly see the difference between this army and other lords' armies, although their ranks were not very neat, but their eyes were flashing with a murderous aura, which would only exist in the face of blood and blood wars.
"Let's go. ”
In this way, the troops in the south set off slowly under an order.
Alan rode on horseback, and he was in front of his own team, and next to him was the team of Bear Eagle City.
"Alan, you're a good soldier, you have the look of a soldier. It's the army that defeated the Bloodseal City army and those bandits before. Keith looked at the warriors of Stormwind, they didn't whisper as they marched, and they walked in a very orderly manner. It's the result of training, and those non-stop training every day have made these things habitual.
Alan nodded and said modestly: "It's nothing, Brother Keys, your army is the real army, no worse than those soldiers of the Imperial Capital Army." ”
While Alan and Keith were chatting, a man in a black robe rode past them and ran to the front of the Duke of Caesarbelia's car.
"That's a magician!" Alan saw a magician's mark on the black-robed man's chest.
"Yes, I guess the Caesarbelian helper. After all, a magician still has a great role on the battlefield. ”
Black robe!
Alan always felt that this look seemed to be very similar to the magician described by Zorro who he had saved before, and I don't know if there is any connection between this.
However, I can't control these now, so pay more attention to myself along the way.
The troops stationed outside the city began to slowly leave, forming dragons on the vast land.
On top of a hill, several women dressed in black were standing quietly, and the others were looking around with nothing to do.
One of the women stared at the corner of the departing army, as if there was something there that attracted her.
"Claire, delaying your return to the Order, are you here to watch these troops leave?" said a young girl impatiently.
"Let's wait a minute. Claire still looked into the distance, and she secretly wished in her heart: I hope you can come back safely this time, although I can't say goodbye to you in person, but I still sincerely wish you.
Let's hope we'll meet again next time, Alan Omis.
The woman who looked like a leader on one side said, "It's almost time, we should be on our way, we should have set off, because your request has been delayed until today." ”
"Big sister, I understand. Let's go. Claire looked nostalgically into the distance, then turned around and gently put a thin black veil on herself.
A few people quickly disappeared from here.
