Time flies, three days later. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

On the border between the two major territories, Quicksand Castle and Olympic Sailing City, there are rugged and barren mountains on one side and a flat, rich plain on the other. There is a clear and natural dividing line.

On the flat plain, an army of 10,000 people wearing leather armor and holding swords is neatly displayed. In the rear of the army, there were countless wagons full of swords, armor, shields, food and other armaments.

In the center of the army, on a magnificent chariot drawn by four white horses, Baron Ao Fan was wearing a golden armor made of pure gold, and a golden helmet on his head, looking heroic and powerful. Holding the ancestral heirloom of the Olympic sail family, the golden sword representing the authority of the family. Looking out at the rough road ahead, the quicksand castle overgrown with wild grass is full of spirit and ambition.

"All the troops are attacking!"

The golden greatsword swung forward, and a majestic voice came out of his mouth. An army of 10,000 marched neatly into the territory of quicksand castles, ready to crush all enemies and conquer this place with a strong army.

It was only as the magnificent chariot staggered along the rough road of quicksand castle that the smile on Baron Aofan's face turned into a wry smile of complaint.

"Quicksand Castle, this place!"

The marching speed was extremely slow, and the army of 10,000 and countless wagons behind them formed a long snake that stretched for miles on the rugged road of the quicksand castle. Meandering, slowly moving.

Build a camp, bury the pot and cook rice.....

A day's march is less than a few miles!

The quicksand castle fifty miles away seemed to be very close in the past, but when the army walked, it was so far away.

Baron Ao Fan's brows furrowed, and his heroic and brave face also turned into a sad face: "How many days will it take to get to the foot of Quicksand Castle City?"

"According to today's marching speed, it will take at least seven or eight days to .....," Shawn, the butler on the side, hurriedly replied in a low voice.

"It will take seven or eight days!" Baron Aofan's face turned pale!

Judging from the data, he led an army of 10,000 people, and it was extremely simple to conquer the small quicksand castle. But when he really went out to march, he, a powerful baron on the Great Plains, rampaging and crushing everything, knew how difficult it was to march in the mountains.

Even the horsemen who galloped on their horses and rode the world complained bitterly in the quicksand castle. Soldiers in armor climbed up and down the mountain paths, tired and kicking as if they were enough. And the wagon, full of supplies, got stuck in a mud puddle and crawled like a turtle.

As soon as he saw this, Baron Aofan wanted to curse!

"No, if it goes on like this, you won't be able to catch up with the city of quicksand castle for ten days and eight days!" Baron Ao Fan shook his head, pondered for a moment, and said to his chief butler, Sean: "Leave the logistics horse convoy behind, let them go slowly." The army is lightly armed, carries ten days' food, and marches at full speed!"

Speaking of this, Baron Ao Fan raised three fingers: "Three days, I will only give three days! After three days, we must reach the city of quicksand castle!"

"This ......" Sean butler looked embarrassed, even if he didn't know how to march and fight, he also knew that it was dangerous to abandon the logistics convoy, once the logistics convoy was blocked by the enemy and the food could not keep up, the army would be hungry, once hungry, how could he have the strength to fight?

But Baron Aofan's attitude was so resolute, how could Steward Sean have the courage to refute it, so he could only nod his head and receive the order: "It's Lord Baron!"

Early the next morning, after a hurried breakfast, the Olympic sailing army went into battle in a light car, leaving the logistics transport team behind, throwing away all carriages, riding horses, walking and walking, and galloping towards the quicksand castle.

In the mountains on both sides of the road, the quicksand castle soldiers who were monitoring the Olympic Sailing army all the way couldn't help but sneer when they saw this: "Baron Aofan doesn't look down on us mountain pariahs at all, and he has left all the logistics convoys behind, and he is not afraid that we will attack their logistics convoys?

"It's not stupid, he doesn't look down on us at all, and doesn't think we can pose a threat to their logistics convoy!"

"Captain, do you want to kill him? Burn all their food!"

The captain of the reconnaissance team shook his head: "Don't worry, go back quickly, inform the Baron of the news, and let the Baron decide!"

"Good!" several soldiers nodded, and one of them galloped down the hill. There were their tied horses on the trail down the mountain, and they untied the ropes and rode their horses to the quicksand castle.

.......

Not long after, Morin, who was in the castle, received information from the reconnaissance soldiers, and heard that the Olympic sail army had left the logistics and transportation and all the ordnance and materials, and was lightly armed and flew forward. The corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a hint of sneer, and he didn't have to think about it to know that Baron Ao Fan didn't know how much the military strength of the quicksand castle had increased over the past few days.

Perhaps Baron Ao Fan thought that his 10,000-strong army would go to the next stop in Quicksand Castle City, and the soldiers and civilians of Quicksand Castle would obediently open the door and surrender when they saw the momentum of his army.

It's not that Baron Ao Fan is stupid, it's just the pride of the very common aristocratic lords, who look down on the mountain people like quicksand castle from the root.

"Enter the battle line and wait for work!"

Morin commanded lightly.

As early as outside the quicksand castle, he had set up fortifications, and the traps in front of the battle line, such as horse traps, iron nails, horse bars, etc., that hindered the army's charge, had already been dug.

Even the trenches of war needed for the war of firearms have been dug!

He didn't even think about engaging in a field battle with the Olympic sailing army. It is to resolutely fight defensive battles, positional battles, and block the attack of the Olympic sailing army.

On the other side, five hundred cavalry were also ready to sneak up on the later troops of the Austrian Sail army and burn their food.

Originally, he was going to enter the camp of the Olympic Sailing army at night to burn their food, but he never thought that Baron Aofan would be so arrogant and lightly armed. Leaving the later troops behind, he led the army to rush up in a daze.

It can be said that as soon as the station started, the war situation went as Morin envisioned. Even smoother than he had imagined.

.......

Ten miles southeast of the town of Quicksand Castle, there is only a slightly wider road into Quicksand Castle. There are hills on both sides, and although it does not form a canyon terrain that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, it will take a lot of mountain roads to go around the quicksand castles on both sides of the hills without going through the road.

But at this moment, both the only road and the hills on both sides are full of fortifications. Dense tunnels stretch for miles.

This is the result of hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in quicksand castles, day and night.

Not to mention the army walking, even if you are walking alone, if you want to pass, you have to constantly jump pits and climb pits, jump pits and climb pits and other time-consuming and laborious actions to pass.

So much so that Baron Ao Fan led an army of 10,000 under his command, and hurried to this place in three days, and was dumbfounded! The dense tunnels, these fortifications, were simply unheard of to them.

In front of the battle line, in addition to the dense traps, it was also deliberately sprinkled with water, and the whole land became a quagmire. Not to mention the charge, it's good for the war horse to be able to walk normally.

"This ....."

"Are all the people in Quicksand Castle rats?"

Baron Ao Fan looked at this scene and couldn't help but scold.
