Chapter 092: Late Night Strikes

Kenny stood up, his hands on his desk, his eyes swept away the tiredness he had just had, and became resolute and sharp. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info "You know this is a military camp, right?" His voice was soft, but it exuded a hint of anger.

"I know better how dark the dungeons of Karta are, how smelly and cold the water is. Camille walked away quickly, lifted the curtains, and a raven flew into the tent, croaking and croaking, and finally came to rest on his shoulder. "It said that the men were well armed, moving very fast, and that we were less than a quarter of an hour away. When the birds were a little quieter, he looked at the crowd and said.

"This means that they are very familiar with the terrain and that they are able to travel under the stars. Neo also stood up, his eyes fixed on Kenny, "Lord, it's either your or Daylight, but I heard from my time in Assyria that your has been in a coup d'état recently....."

"Map!" Kenny reached out and pushed the fork of the plate on the table aside. Eugene immediately turned around and removed the parchment map from the board, spread it on the table, and pressed the crooked corners with the soup bowl. "This is the capital of Assyria, and we're heading north through the Shadow Forest," Kenny's index finger moved up the path, "and once we're here, we'll head west to Lake Mochizuki, and we're here now, north of the lake, right?"

"Probably," Eugene asked, "this map is a bit old, I don't know what year it was." ”

"But the border of Nikko is here," Neo frowned, "I heard in a tavern in Assyria that many refugees had been displaced and engaged in roadblocks due to the recent coup d'état in your. For this reason, Sunshine City had to expand the border guards to prevent Uruk and Assyria from going to their main caravans. ”

"Could it be Uruk?" asked Camille quietly.

"Uruk who loves peace?" Neo shook his head, "It's unlikely, Uruk is rich in minerals to make the nation rich, not only the lords, but also the townspeople. Legend has it that the people of that place slept when they were full, or they basked in the sun. 'In Uruk, only the blacksmith is the busiest. He said a quip, "You must have heard this proverb." ”

"Then it's just daylight. Kenny's brow furrowed, "Imp, ask your blackbird, it can see the banners of the knights." ”

"Lord, the crow can't read the human flag. Camille waved the bird into the night, "but it said there was something strange about the guys.....

Kenny's gaze follows the crow into the night, and he lowers his head in contemplation for a few seconds before looking at the map again. "Neo, order the whole army, prepare to meet the enemy!"

In just ten seconds, a rapid trumpet sounded outside the tent again, which was particularly harsh in the dark night. Immediately afterward, the neighing of the townspeople, the clash of spears, the screeching of horses, and war seemed to be coming, except for fighting.

Before that, Kenny left behind the silver armor given by the white dove. The heavy armor was originally carefully crafted by her, but unfortunately it was now placed in the city of Assyria, the advantage was that it was exchanged for the dignity of a down-and-out lord, and the disadvantage was that on the eve of the war, he scraped together on the army's baggage vehicles and found a rusty chain mail, the knee pads of a knight who had died eating poisonous mushrooms, and the iron bracers and steel boots with sharp horns that did not fit well.

When everything was ready, the time had come to the second half of the night. Eugene and Camille ascended the makeshift watchtower, watching as they waited for the scout's return. The western sky was a deep purple with a few scattered stars, the mist floating in the air floated on Lake Mochizuki, the grass left over by the horses was covered with dew, and the trumpets were blaring in unison, low and mournful, chilling.

In the firelight, Kenny was dressed in mismatched armor and mounted on a dark warhorse, and behind him the five thousand Confederates were like a rose of steel blooming in the dark night, the tip of the spear glittering in the moonlight.

The Chinese army was commanded by Neo, mainly cavalry, and the horses under their crotches neighed uneasily, as if they had foreseen the imminent war. The archers lined up in three columns, flanking in two ways, calmly adjusting the bowstrings, their arrows dangling at their waists. Spearmen stood in a square formation in the middle of the archers, and in the rear were the thousand guards, five long lines defending the last line of defense.

"Lord, here they are!" Camille's childish, shrill voice tore through the night, turning the trumpets into rumbling war drums.

Kenny sees a spark in the distance in the night, and it is approaching. Suddenly, he seemed to see the sights of the Peace Army attacking from the shadows again, quite similar to the battle of Robin City.

Will they snarl at him from all sides, as they did last time, grinning and baring their fangs and tearing the Alliance apart?

After a long march all night, those men must have been exhausted. He couldn't help but wonder what the people of Sunlight City were up to, to attack them while we were asleep? Such an opportunity was really not very good, and aside from other aspects, he was no longer the arrogant lord. However, the Confederate forces did not set foot in the territory of Sunny City, which was strictly the border between Assyria and the ice fields, and should be a place that neither of the two countries wanted to fight. Or, in other words, Assyria did not want to fight for it, and across the mountains to the north was a snow-capped ice field, and there was only a lake, but beyond that, it was desolate and barren.

Kenny was dumbfounded when he saw the fire-printed cavalry - the enemy was less than two hundred. In front of the 5,000 Confederate troops, it was like a ball of fleas that could ride horses, or eggs that were about to crash into stones.

"I'm the Captain of the Border Guard of Daylight City, Maurice Adam. The leader was dressed in a white robe, holding a sword, and rode on a tall horse, and said loudly, "First greetings, knight, then the Iron Forest Army behind you, even if you have nowhere to go, you should not set foot in our territory!"

"First of all, the group behind me is not the Iron Forest, and secondly, this is the border between Assyria and the Ice Field!" Kenny sat in the saddle, looking at the knight opposing him. Since the defeat at the Battle of Robin City, he no longer seems to have underestimated any war, even if the enemy is less than two hundred. "I don't think my people have set foot in your territory, strictly speaking, on the map of Assyria, it is clearly marked that this belongs to Assyria!"

"I'm afraid your broken map is out of date!" Morris laughed, "As early as two years ago, this place was leased to us in Nikko City, including the Ghost Forest over there, and your ruling king White visited Nikko for this matter to discuss this matter with our old lord Jefferson, and as I said, Mochizuki Lake is now in the Nikko realm!"

In the darkness, something rests on Kenny's shoulder.

"Only, two hundred!" the crow called in his hoarse voice, "Two hundred, two hundred, two hundred..... Kenny looked back at Camille on the watchtower, and slowly drew his sword from his waist.
