Chapter 34: The Raid
Levi returned to the Black Mist Castle and gave the order for the Knights to assemble quickly, and then quickly led the three thousand Knights to set off again, targeting the Barony of Gudronser.
This time, Levi did not let the Knights march in a hurry, and chose a jogging march to keep all the members of the Order physically strong.
Halfway through, the Order passed near the town of Conom, and Levi asked three civilian knights who had frantically supported him to bring a top-secret order back to the town of Conom, and the entire Order continued to advance at an even speed towards the Barony of Gudronser.
The Knights came to the junction of the territory of the Black Mist Castle and the Barony of Gudronser, and finally stopped about three kilometers away from the territory border.
Levi looked at the other side of the territory and saw that the Barony of Gudron Lser was relatively flat as a whole, with a small amount of hills and mountains, and it was a time of about autumn, and the scenery was very beautiful.
Levi's expression was indifferent, and he asked, "Mayor Senripman, have you ever been to Baron Gudronser's Red Moon Flower Territory? I heard that this territory is much richer and smoother than our Black Mist Castle Territory, and the living conditions of the people are also very good. ”
Senli Boman's face changed slightly, and he secretly had some guesses in his heart, explaining: "The territory of the Red Moon Flower is indeed very rich, this territory is about four or five times the size of our Black Mist Castle territory, and the most important thing is that there is a large river in the Red Moon Flower Territory, which can pass through that kind of large merchant ships, and the business contacts are very prosperous, which brings Baron Gudron Ersey a very rich income of gold coins, and also makes the people here live a very good life." The aristocratic life here was very luxurious and luxurious. ”
Levi nodded lightly and said, "Well, it is indeed a very rich territory, and the ancestor of Baron Gudron is really very lucky to be able to obtain such a vast and fertile territory. ”
"I heard that Baron Gudronser took refuge with a prince of the kingdom, and was very close to him, and even one of his own sisters was married to this prince as his ninth wife, and was very much loved by His Royal Highness. It was because of the strong support of one prince that Baron Gudronsert annexed the territories of the other two down-and-out barons, forming the current vast territory of the Red Moonflower. ”
Levi's expression was still indifferent, and he said, "Prince, what a noble identity. It's a pity that this place is too far away from the royal capital of the kingdom, it is already the border area of the kingdom, and if we want to go to the royal capital, we need to ride the black scale beast war horse for a month or two, which is really a long distance. ”
Through recent observations, Levi now finds that this Senripoman is no longer completely suitable to lead the entire Knights, this person no longer has the strong mentality of being a powerful median knight, and has been the mayor of Conom Town for many years, and Senripomman's whole person has been completely eroded by a comfortable and peaceful life.
At this moment, a loud and continuous sound of horses' hooves sounded behind the Knights.
Levi turned his head and saw this with a smile on his face.
In the blink of an eye, a huge knight order of thousands of people stopped in front of the knight led by Levi.
A sturdy young knight with red hair stepped forward to report and said, "Lord Baron, your subordinates have completed the mission! Gather 5,300 knights in the territory and ask your lord to give orders." ”
Levi took a few steps forward and said with satisfaction, "Well, Jaxhorn, you're doing a very good job. Please remember this mission, it is also a test for you. In this operation, the regular knights will mainly use it to annihilate the enemy's resistance, and will carry out a continuous knightly charge. There may be some other issues that cannot be taken into account. ”
This civilian knight is named Jaxhorn, and he had a very outstanding performance in the bloody battle in the town of Conom, and he was very fierce and brave in battle, and he also performed even better during the raid of thousands of miles late last night, and he had just been promoted to the strength of the median knight level, and he was very steady, and he was Levi's most optimistic civilian knight, so he chose to deliberately cultivate.
Levi continued: "The main task of your more than 5,000 reserve knights is to assist the regular knights to annihilate the enemy's scattered resistance forces, and more importantly, to achieve the tactical goal of fighting to absorb the knightly forces in the territory of the Red Moon Flower who are willing to resist Baron Gudronser. On these two foundations, you need to incite a large number of slaves in the territory of the Red Moonflower, publicize our latest slavery rules and systems, attract these slaves to join the attack on Baron Gudronser, and at the same time recruit as many civilian knights as possible to join the Reserve Knights to maximize the power of the Order. ”
Jaxhorn looked excited and said loudly, "Yes, Lord Baron, your subordinates promise to complete your orders." The subordinates have completely memorized the knightly war manual issued by the Knight Academy, and have divided the 5,000 reserve knights into fifty companies, which can effectively command the entire reserve knights. ”
Levi said with satisfaction: "Very good, this raid on the Red Moon Flower Territory depends on your performance, I hope you can grow into a qualified and excellent leader of the Knights." ”
The raid on the territory of the Red Moon Flower has officially begun.
Levi led three thousand regular knights and began to launch a knightly charge.
Thundered!
The roar of iron hooves shook the heavens and the earth.
The regular knights quickly rushed across the borders of the territory and rushed straight into Baron Gudronser's territory of the Red Moonflower.
The Reserve Knights likewise followed.
The hundreds of guarding knights on the border of the Red Moon Flower Territory saw the many knights charging into the territory, their faces were shocked, and they didn't dare to make any resistance at all, so they turned around and fled immediately.
Levi led the regular knights, and soon charged to the first town on the border of the Red Moon Flower Territory, Bakoostu, rode his horse and rushed into this Bakoostu Town, besieged the town's territory guard knights, and completely captured the border town of the Red Moon Flower's territory.
The Reserve Knights then entered the town of Bakoostu and immediately launched an operation, inciting the town's slaves to revolt, and at the same time publicizing the latest regulations and systems promulgated by the town of Conom, and absorbing many civilian knights in the town.
After the regular knights captured the town, they did not stop, and immediately rushed to the next town of Bogunitra again.
The raid was so successful that the town of Bogonetra was soon completely captured, and the knights of Baron Gudronser's domain guard were quickly slaughtered.
All the towns near the border in the Red Moon Flower Territory were completely unprepared, and they didn't expect to be attacked by a surprise attack at all, and in the face of the powerful charge of the Knights, there was basically not much resistance.
In a short period of time, Levi led the regular knights to capture more than a dozen towns, and the flames of war ignited the territory of the Red Moonflower.
After the rapid expansion of more than a dozen small towns, the Reserve Knights soon reached a huge scale of 12,300 people, and nearly 10,000 slaves scattered to follow the Reserve Knights, forming a huge force like a snowball.
A war that engulfs the entire territory of the Red Moon soon breaks out.
Among them, the slaves of the many Red Moon Territories are the craziest supporters and advocates of war.
Levi led the regular knights in front to defeat the main realm guard knights in the Red Moon Flower's territory.
The Reserve Knights followed closely, constantly absorbing and gathering the civilian knights and slaves who were usually oppressed and bullied, and expanding the strength of the entire Reserve Knights like a balloon.
The number of rebellious slaves skyrocketed even more, soon gathering to twenty or thirty thousand, and the rate was still swelling at a super-fast rate.
By the time the Reserve Order had expanded to nearly 23,000 people, the number of slaves had reached a terrifying 40,000 number, but it continued to grow rapidly.
At this time, Levi no longer chose to continue to attack the towns in the territory of the Red Moonflower, and conveyed the order to lead the regular knights to advance in a straight line towards Baron Gudronser's Kosnogin Castle Manor.
The nearly seventy thousand people formed a huge rushing torrent, making no one in the Red Moon Flower Territory dare to approach easily.
In the evening.
Levi led the Knights to Baron Gudronser's estate of Kosnogin Castle.
During this time, Baron Gudron had obviously received the news of the invasion of the territory, and wanted to gather the guardian knights of the territory in a very hurry, but the turmoil in the territory had already turned this idea into a fantasy, and the guard knights of the Kosnogin Castle Manor themselves had only gathered about seven or eight thousand knights.
Through the surprise attack, Levi has at least defeated and eliminated nearly 10,000 territory guard knights in the Red Moon Flower Territory, completely crippling the overall guard force of Baron Gudronser.
The territory war broke out, the two sides were irreconcilable, and Levi would never agree to negotiate a retreat, the goal was to completely occupy the territory of the Red Moon Flower.
War is on the verge of breaking out.
Jaxhorn led the Reserve Knights, and at the same time led the army of forty or fifty thousand slaves, and launched a ferocious charge directly towards the Kosnogin Castle Manor.
Fierce and bloody fighting broke out between the two sides.
Levi waited quietly from a short distance to observe, and noticed that the members of the thieves group of the three major thieves, the White Snake, the Nine-Headed Bird, and the Blue Poisonous Bee, were mixed in the crowd of guards and knights of Baron Gudronser.
At this time, the four very powerful black knights of the thief group showed terrifying lethality, gathered together with each other, and led the elite of the five or six thousand thief group to break through in the southeast direction of the entire battlefield.
Levi immediately judged that these four very powerful black knights of the thief group were the top black knight leaders of the three major thieves groups, the leader of the White Snake Thieves Group was the top black knight Dukason, the leader of the Nine-headed Bird Thieves Group was the top black knight Xitugar, and the leaders of the Blue Poison Bee Thieves group were the top black knights Uramon and Hanskrul.
Only a strong high-ranking knight-level strength can show a powerful and terrifying lethality and destruction power in this kind of battlefield.
"Kill! Destroy all the bandits!"
Levi's expression was indifferent, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he gave an order, and immediately led the regular knights behind him, launched a knightly charge, and attacked directly at the crowd of the three thieves.
