090: Edward VII
A few days ago, the kingdom of Pru, the royal palace.
Edward VII sat on the throne in a splendid attire, a parchment scroll open in his hand, a rush that had just been brought from the front.
There are many similar rushes, from this war with Kendikes to the great battle of the kingdom's army on the plains of Morrest a few days ago.
Kendi Keith is really arrogant... Arrogant ridiculous...
The total number of troops invested in this battle on the side of the Prussian Kingdom was only 8,000 men, while the main force established by Kendicaith gathered several kingdoms exceeded 50,000, which was basically about half of the strength of the alliance.
The numerical superiority made them overconfident, and as soon as the army arrived at the front line, they handed over the decisive battle letter to Allen, and as a result, the team that played the slogan to destroy the Glory Knight and capture Allen alive was unable to resist the two frontal charges of the Glory Knight.
Behind the plains of Morester is a flat river, and Alan has already led his team in the pursuit of victory, and in less than a week, he will be able to reach the Silent Gorge.
And here, as long as you agree to the request for an increase in your hand, send a team to outflank the past on both sides, east to the Silent Valley, west to Kenreit City at the entrance of the Morrest Plain, this thousand miles of fertile land and millions of people will fall into the territory of the Pru Kingdom, and the Pru Kingdom will be at the top of this continent from now on, and there will be no opponents.
Oh, yes...
There will be no more opponents ...
Edward VII had an extremely excited smile on his face, which made him look a little crazy at this time, but under this smile, his body trembled slightly, and in those turquoise eyes, a clear trace of fear could be found.
Long.
He put down the rush in his hand, pressed one hand on the armrest of the throne, and began to give orders to the generals in front of him:
"The order was issued to Prince Achill to lead the 6th, 7th, and 9th legions to take the left road to garrison the city of Aqira, and to order the four princes to lead the 12th, 16th, and 17th legions to take the right road to garrison Icewind Dale, and build fortifications on the road. ”
At this point, he paused, took a deep breath, and then gave an order that the generals present had never thought of anyway.
Edward VII got up slowly, threw the sheepskin scroll in his hand to the fire beside him, looked at the scroll that burned in the flickering firelight, and said without looking back:
"Tell the two generals that if they don't move, no matter who they are, they must not open the city gates!"
To the east of the Plains of Moreste, on Anliz Boulevard, a carriage was escorted by more than a dozen soldiers speeding on the avenue, and the thick dust and smoke rising from the rolling wheels rose up.
Luo Xi, who was dressed in a white robe, sat in the carriage, reading a book in his hand, but the so-called reading was just forcibly recording the content in his head, and he didn't actually have the heart to read at this time.
Raising the curtain next to him, Roshi looked out for a moment, and then asked Adiste outside, "Adiste, where are we going, how far is it from the Valley of Willa?"
"My lord, we are already on Anlise Avenue, and the Valle de Willa is just ahead, and we will be there by tomorrow evening at the latest... I hope it's not too late," replied Addis, with a solemn face, a deep worry in his voice.
Luo Xi felt as if he should say something, so he comforted: "Don't worry, Alan has come over with strong winds and waves, even if he loses, he won't be so fast." ”
"I hope so," Adiste sighed
Rosie lowered the curtains of the car, tossed aside the scroll he had already read in his hand, and then raised his hand and rubbed his temples that were a little sore.
I really didn't expect it, and I really let Louis say it...
In a big battle on the plains of Morester, Allen successfully defeated the enemy's main army, and it was supposed to be a good time to move westward to reap the fruits of victory, but something unexpected happened-
The kingdom did not send reinforcements!
Although Allen won a great victory in the plains, he only had 8,000 troops after all, and he lost more than 3,000 people in this battle, and it was impossible for the remnants of the army to eat such a large piece of land.
According to the pre-plan, Eren should take the middle army, all the way to the Silent Canyon, where he will meet the other two 10,000-strong armies sent by the kingdom on the left and right.
However, now the two 10,000-strong armies of the kingdom have stopped at the northern edge of the Morester Plain and the southern edge of the Archival City and Kenrit City respectively, which directly leads to the fact that in the Morester Plain, a thousand miles of fertile land, only Allen's 5,000 troops are galloping.
If the enemy's ranks were completely wiped out, it would be fine, but the problem was that the battle on the plains only routed the enemy army, in fact, the number of people did not decrease sharply, after all, the war in this era is still basically stuck in the level of rushing to the top when the battle is over, and they will flee in all directions when they see that the situation is not good.
After such a long time, I didn't see the army of the Prussian Kingdom stationed in the land, and although the local Candikes nobles who were already preparing to flee west did not know the situation, they still quickly gathered the remnants of the army, and in the past few days, they regrouped a legion of almost 10,000 people, and the number of soldiers continued to increase.
The army of tens of thousands of people in front of them was crippled by Allen, and at this time, with these twenty thousand people, they didn't dare to go to Allen again to provoke them with a hundred guts, but at this time, they suddenly made a surprising discovery-
Eren didn't even have a baggage!
In order to get the results as soon as possible, after the battle of the Plains of Morester, Allen only brought a small amount of grain and grass and marched westward, after all, there were no enemies at this time, and only after waiting for the other two teams of the Silent Canyon and the king to escort a large amount of grain and grass to turn, and then resupply.
Now that the kingdom's team can't come, Alan naturally has no grain and grass, although the Morester Plain is vast, but the town is too loosely distributed, not to mention that before Allen came in, the nobles from all over the country had already fled everywhere with grain and grass, and it was not very realistic for the team of five thousand people to supply on the spot.
After discovering that Eren had not brought supplies, the already frightened Kendikes suddenly came to their senses and hurriedly pulled the newly pulled team to the Silent Canyon, vowing to annihilate Eren here.
Because of the timing of the message transmission, Addiste only found out about the incident at the front the night before yesterday, and according to the estimates, the team of the Candikeyes will all arrive in the Silent Canyon as soon as tomorrow morning to launch a total of 20,000 well-fed and high-spirited soldiers fighting at home against 5,000 remnants of the army who are sleepy and lack of armament... It's really damn good.
It's just that...
What's worse seems to be this...
Roshi picked up a sheepskin scroll placed on the carriage and spread it out, this scroll was recorded by the soldiers who broke through in the Silent Valley, which described in detail the situation of Allen at this time and the enemy's ranks, and among them, the most interesting thing for Roshi was a pattern on this scroll, a pattern from an unfamiliar banner of the enemy.
The motif depicts a skull with pale flames burning inside the skull, and a crow hovering over the top of the skull.
Roshi recognized this pattern, which was the emblem of the Necromantic Tower from the Eight Great Wizarding Organizations under the Black Tower...
