For the next month, the Morning River was stained red with blood, and as far as the eye could see, the river was filled with dead warriors, and Phil Lopez's determination was even stronger than Lancelot had imagined.

Without the help of the bridge and the naval transport ships, they cut down trees on the other side of the river and let the craftsmen make small sampans similar to those of fishermen to cross the river.

On the other side of the river were catapult positions and thousands of archers, responsible for preventing the army of the Lopez Kingdom from crossing the river, but there were too many enemies, and even if the catapults operated non-stop, how many troop carriers could they sink?

And most of the archers' arrows were blocked by shields, so every time the soldiers in the north fought a hard bloody battle.

Fortunately, although they did not have an advantage in numbers, the number of Lopez soldiers crossing the river at the same time was not too terrifying, and they were always able to hold on to each battle.

Only in a few night battles their positions were almost crushed, because at night the effectiveness of catapults and ballistas was noticeably reduced.

Even so, Phil's soldiers still lost tens of thousands, and Lancelot's side was similar, at least nearly 20,000 people lost the ability to fight.

On the other hand, Phil had to adopt Sandra's suggestion because he couldn't attack for a long time, and the army was divided into two routes, and a legion of about 40,000 people took advantage of the night to break away from the barracks and advance to the lower reaches of the Chen River.

Although the Morning River basin on the side of Morun Fortress is the relatively narrowest area of the entire Morning River, with the fewest torrent whirlpools, and the fastest speed to cross the river, Phil has no choice but to make other choices.

It's just that Lancelot and Roland have long been prepared for this, and the commander of the Rangers of Hierro Province, Latis, has already received orders to patrol the Morning River Valley day and night, and establish outposts in some important locations.

At the same time, a force quietly infiltrated the city of Francis and the royal city of Slovan during this time.

Hassan's information was not wrong, and the Snake Cult did take this opportunity to poke their fangs into the Lopez Kingdom, but the High Priest of the Snake Cult was planning to completely destroy the country, not just Jason or Phil.

They want to complete the revenge of hundreds of years ago, so some people say that if you offend anyone, don't offend this kind of fanatical organization, and if you are not careful, you will be hated for a lifetime, or even longer.

In Phil's barracks, there was a huge tent that was very ornate and stood in it, but Phil and Sandra were not inside, but in a low tent on the other side, like the kind where the guards lived.

Because there are too many top powerhouses and killers under Jason's command, Phil doesn't want to take risks, and the lessons of the northern rebellion against the nobles are there.

At this time, Sandra looked at the map of the Morun Fortress to the banks of the Morning River, as well as the outpost of Dede Town, and said with some annoyance: "I said a long time ago that it will be much easier to unite the Northern Wild Goose Legion to storm the Baria Pass than for us to cross the Morning River here, but now it's okay, the main forces are pinned down here, and in the end, even if you win this war, the Lopez Kingdom will not be able to recover its ability to continue to expand its territory in ten years." ”

"Baria Pass has been completely built into a war fortress by Jason, and conventional siege weapons have no effect on it at all, and the siege there is not a small difficulty at all, as long as there are 50,000 troops stationed in it, we will not be able to break it in more than half a year, and we still have to maintain a huge amount of logistics. Phil glanced at her faintly, he had sent spies to investigate the Barria Pass before.

For this reason, he also paid a lot of elite spies for this, and finally decided to attack the fortress of Morun, because the current security of the Baria Pass is a military fortress, and civilians and even nobles have no right to enter it, and it is simply impossible to infiltrate the plan such as internal response.

But he can be regarded as keeping a hand, the whereabouts of the 50,000 troops are to launch an attack while the defense of the Baria Pass is empty, and whether it can succeed depends on whether the arrangements of Roland and others are thorough.

Presumably, as long as the battle on the Chenhe side put them under great pressure, it was possible to transfer troops from the Baria Pass to support.

"Then aren't you worried that the Duke of Asa will suddenly attack you at this time? I heard that his army has always been stationed on the border of the province of Lake, although there are only about 100,000, but it is still very possible to threaten your rear. Sandra said with a cold look in her eyes.

Of course, just one province of Lake could not support 100,000 troops, but at the beginning, Duke Asa led his troops to attack the Susin Kingdom, but some of the land occupied by the Susin Kingdom was not really returned to the Susin Kingdom.

The actual controller is still the Duke of Asa.

Hearing this, Phil chuckled: "In the north now, we only need to beware of the Dolan Kingdom and the Lion Kingdom, the hatred of the Susin Kingdom has always been on Duke Asa, he not only destroyed the plan of the Susin Kingdom, but also bit them a piece of flesh fiercely, King Susin has always wanted to take revenge." ”

"So now we just have to finish this game of life and death with my dear brother. But then he shook his head again and said, "Ah, I almost forgot that he is not in the north now, which is a pity." ”

In his heart, it would be a pity if his brother Jason Lopez could not watch the power he had created collapse step by step.

"You still need to hide your whereabouts, I don't want you to be in the middle of the war, and you suddenly and inexplicably die at the hands of the masters under Jason. Sandra struck mercilessly.

This is not that she is alarmist, in fact, since the start of the war, Phil has been assassinated several times, and the strongest killer has reached the realm of the Great Knight, and his status among the crows is not low.

But fortunately, Phil's security work is relatively in place, and he will rest in some inconspicuous military tents at night, in addition to Sandra, he is also accompanied by several masters.

This didn't make Lancelot's plan a success.

As for the counter-assassination, Phil and Sandra didn't think about it, unless they assassinate the other party's top commander, they basically didn't play a role in this war, and people like Lancelot basically went to send people to their heads unless they dispatched Sandra's grandfather.

Even if Axel makes a move, it is more likely that it will fall under the cooperation of Lancelot and other masters.
