Chapter 179: The Battle of Tuogu
At a distance of several kilometers, a group of knights of almost a thousand people was on a rapid march.
All of a sudden. One of the knights looked up suddenly, as if in a chain reaction, and his companions looked at him one by one.
The knight stretched out his right hand, and in his palm there were six purple gems, one of which had been shattered into powder.
"Something happened to the Grand Priest. ”
"Do you want to raise the alarm?"
"So is there any movement in the Sword of Light?"
The knight looked at the man who had spoken.
However, everyone understands that there is no -
"So you can't raise the alarm. ”
The knight gave orders to the others: "Go to your aid at once, and I will go first." ”
The four knights behind him immediately took up their weapons and took orders.
The knight leapt into the air like a giant eagle and soared into the air.
......
"What password do your deep eyes want to reveal,
The corners of the hesitant mouth hid under the serious back.
The oppressive air loops around the closed castle,
The enigmatic swan has endless stories to tell.
The lonely figure is accompanied only by the bells......"
Arnold staggered out of the manor, a sea of fire behind him, and those who were alive had fled. Those who remain are dead.
He spat a mouthful of blood on the ground, and couldn't help humming a song from the past, a song that he had almost forgotten for so long.
He looked at a meteor flying in the sky, smiled mockingly, and strode away in the direction everyone had left.
Only the strange tone of the song lingers here.

Gladys' face was covered in blood, and the sky was turning white, and they had been fighting for the night since they encountered the Black Legion.
There are less than 2,000 remaining in the 10,000 Green Legion, and there are less than 100 knights, all of whom have blood on their bodies.
If the ordinary army had been damaged like this, it would have collapsed and surrendered a long time ago.
But they are not ordinary legions after all, the most elite legions of their kingdom are the direct legions of the princess, you can defeat their bodies, but you will never break their will. The only one who can defeat them is total annihilation.
Although Gladys's Blue Legion was close to losing its formation, Mo Yaheng's Black Legion was no better.
Of the 50,000 full-strength front-line regiments, there are now less than 20,000 left, and the battle loss ratio once reached 1 to 4. It is equivalent to the Blue Legion alone killing 4 people from the Black Legion.
You must know that they are actually elites of the same level, and the Black Legion has been fighting against the Lionmane on the border all year round, and their combat effectiveness is extremely fierce.
It can only be said that these belonging to the Blue Legion are more well-equipped, and the magic scrolls are constantly exhausted. What's more, they are the side that relies on justice, and they fight to the death against the water, and the mourning soldiers will win.
The Black Legion is attacking its own people, and its morale is one level less.
"Legionnaire, they have reached the point of exhaustion, and we only need one more collective charge to completely break their position. ”
A general ran to Mo Yaheng out of breath and reported excitedly.
Mo Yaheng's face was cold, and he kicked back the general who had just climbed up.
"50,000 people fight 10,000, do you still have a face like this?" If it weren't for the fact that the sky was still gray, you could see that Mo Yaheng's face was already black and blue, "In the end, people were consumed to death by numbers, and this still has a face?"
Mo Yaheng walked up to the general who fell to the ground for unknown reasons, kicked him again, and kicked him over.
"You can, it's really a face for the black legion, people who don't know still think it's a local army from the kingdom. Mo Yaheng's finger almost poked the general's face, "Look around, where can you still see a little, this is a black army that terrifies the lionmane?"
Mo Yaheng's words hit the general's heart like thunder, and his face turned pale.
He got up and looked at the soldiers around him who were demoralized and fighting passively, where could he still tell that this was an iron-blooded army? Thinking of Mo Yaheng's words, he was even more ashamed.
"Commander, give me a quarter of an hour, and I will reorganize my army and restore it to its former glory. The general's face turned red, his blood swelled, and he roared loudly in the wilderness.
After listening to the general's words, Moya Hengtie's blue face was slightly better.
"Go, the Blue Legion is also one of the four great legions of the kingdom, and it is out of respect for them to let them die under your strongest ranks. Mo Yaheng nodded and motioned to the generals to do it.
He sighed and looked faintly at Gladys, who was resting at the front line, and the last trace of tenderness in his heart was also extinguished by him.
"Drink !!"
"Kingdom Glory !!"
"Drink !!"
"Kingdom Glory !!"
Gladys was resting when she was suddenly awakened by a commotion, grabbed her weapon and crawled out of the hole, looking in the direction of the noise.
"What's going on?"
"Legion Chief, I don't know, just now the other party suddenly recalled all the soldiers, and then in a moment, there was a commotion. A soldier, his face blackened by war, replied beside Gladys.
"Damn the rebels, dare to do this, the glory of the kingdom has long been trampled on by them. Gladys' angry roar, shameless to her enemies, once again refreshed her bottom line.
"Go, gather all who are still alive, the enemy is ready to launch a general attack. Gladys glared coldly at the camp, but she knew it was the last attack.
She looked up at the sky, it was only an hour before dawn, but she didn't know if they could hold out for an hour in the Black Legion's general attack.
Gladys suddenly saw Marquis Clark walking towards her, and after bowing her head in front of her and saying something, Gladys nodded a little frightened and a little taken for granted, and agreed.
Gladys led Marquis Clark to another pit and found Chernobyl, who was sleeping with a sword in his hand.
"Chernobyl. Gladys raised her hand to wake up the little Juggernaut.
"Ah, what's wrong. Is the enemy coming, these little bunnies? Exhausted, Chernobyl was awakened by Gladys, thinking that the enemy was attacking again, and hurriedly got up, but what he saw was an empty wilderness.
"Captain Gladys, Marquis Clark? What about the enemy? Chernobyl glared at Gladys and Marquis Clarke, and complained a little. He dragged his wounded body and fought here for a night, and he was already tired, and it was rare to rest for a while.
"Mr. Chernobyl, we are looking for you to say something very urgent, otherwise there will be no time to say it. Marquis Clark shook his head and laughed.
"Mr. Chernobyl, I know that you are the grandson of Mr. Fiji, and here you are second only to Captain Gladys, and you also heard the commotion on the other side. This is the harbinger of the enemy's final general offensive, and here we have a request to Mr. Chernobyl. ”
As she spoke, Gladys and Marquis Clark were about to kneel, but Chernobyl, who was almost insane, was hurriedly dragged down.
The Marquis of Clark didn't care, but he didn't dare to accept Gladys's bowing.
Although he is the grandson of the Sword Saint, he would never dare to accept such a great gift from a future Sword Saint, this is a special death.
"Captain Gladys, Marquis Clark, if you have something to say, don't hurt me, if you kneel like this, if I can go back alive, I will definitely be hacked to death by my grandfather. Chernobyl hurriedly waved his hand.
Seeing this, Gladys was not reluctant, and said: "I hope that Mr. Chernobyl can leave with Her Royal Highness the Princess and Prince Emmanuelle when there is a contact war." I will personally guard the last line of defense for my husband. ”
"There are some things you know and I understand, to put it bluntly, we will definitely not be able to withstand the attack of 20,000 people, the enemy is tired, we are even more tired. What's more, now that the enemy has regrouped its morale, we have no choice but to fight to the death. ”
Gladys stopped Chernobyl, who was about to speak, "It's not a pity for us to die, but Her Royal Highness the princess is very talented, and Prince Emmanuel is the only legitimate heir to the kingdom, and they must live." Mr. Chernobyl, can I trust you?"
Chernobyl looked at Gladys, who was bent towards him with burning eyes, and said nothing.
He knew that Gladys was supporting Gu, and although Marquis Clark was powerful, his goal was too big. Not to mention the only military soul of the Blue Legion, Gladys.
None of them could leave, only his accidental encounter was an existence that the enemy did not know. Only he had the opportunity to take the princess and the prince away.
Chernobyl sighed and bowed respectfully to Gladys, "I'm here, the princess and the prince are here." ”
A gentle sentence already contains a thousand words of promise.
Gladys and Marquis Clark nodded in satisfaction.
