The sun hadn't seen in a long time shone on Kenny's face, and it was probably the most solid night out of Caltal. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info He dreamed that Nina appeared at Beicheng Bridge unharmed, and this dream seemed to indicate that good luck was coming, at least the heavy snow had stopped.

Lawrence had already put his soldiers and horses in order, and he had purchased all the clothes to protect him from the cold, and Kenny wiped the dried blood stains off his armor with a linen cloth dipped in snow water.

"Lawrence, give the order, and when you enter the Red Oak Grove, the interval between the marches of all will be shortened, and I want them to be as close as the bees in a honeycomb. ”

Kenny's order went down, and from the tallest tower of Ogps, they were nesting together like a swarm of ants, one after the other, but it seemed that they were safe, at least no one would be left behind.

The army of 5,000 men walked mightily in the huge red oak forest, the dense red oak forest covered the sun tightly, they could hardly tell the direction according to the position of the sun, and occasionally snow fell from the branches of the trees into the necks of the soldiers, and they shivered with cold.

Lawrence kept leaving crosses on the red oak trees to prevent them from spinning in place, but fortunately, the god Namu favored them, and Kenny, who was walking at the front of the line, did not see the marks of the cross carved by Lawrence, of course, this may have been temporary good luck.

In the evening, the Union forces stopped to recuperate. Kenny crouched under a large red oak grove and drank ale, playing with a notched silver coin in his hand.

"Lord, are you thinking about Nina again, God Namu willing, she'll be fine. Lawrence nibbled on half a loaf of bread and had just returned from his sentry patrol.

"No, I'm thinking we'll get out of this damn forest in a few days. Kenny took another sip of ale and stood up to tie the bag back to the saddle.

"Duke Lawrence, the forward sentry has reported that a group of men have intercepted our rear infantry guards, cutting off our way back. One of the guards hurried to report to Lawrence.

"What?!" Kenny stepped onto his horse, Lawrence following closely behind, and the two of them ran towards the rear of the troops.

The wind whistled through Kenny's eyes, and he tried to lower his body as low as possible to reduce the wind resistance.

Through the dense forest, Kenny saw that the troops in front of him had begun to fight, and the sound of killing and fire mingled in the sky, Kenny rushed into the battlefield and drew his black steel sword to cut off the head of an enemy soldier.

The quiet Red Oak Grove noisily overtook the Ogps Tavern, and as Kenny slashed at a Peace Army infantryman, Lawrence's spear helped Kenny block a deadly sword. After cutting down three or four Peace Army soldiers, Kenny withdrew from the frontline and began to command the battle.

The archers fired a salvo after the infantry guards, and the Union infantry guards were divided into several squads, consisting of four shield soldiers, three swordsmen, three pikemen, and a group of ten people to attack the attacking enemy.

Looking at the coalition army, the entire corps was able to move forward in a rhythmic manner as if it were a hypothetical exercise. The commander of the Peace Army apparently did not react, why this good surprise attack had ended before it had even begun.

The battle lasted until midnight, when the first wave of Allied attacks defeated the Peace Army, and Kenny defeated the surprise attack of tens of thousands of Peace Army with only 5,000 troops.

As the soldiers cleaned up the battlefield, Kenny removed the wine bag from his saddle and poured a sip of ale, which ran down his beard.

"Lawrence, it seems that the Red Oak Forest is not safe anymore, the Peace Army already knows our intentions, but what we didn't expect is that they dare to enter the Red Oak Forest, Bill is offering a reward of how many gold coins for my head, this group of people is crazy. But their commander is simply a stupid dog, I bet 10 gold coins that their commander is eighty percent of the lackey Marcy, hahaha. Kenny handed the bag to Lawrence and let out a wild laugh.

"No, Kenny, you should say that there are no safe places south of the North City Bridge, or let's go to Dragon Peak to have fun. Lawrence jokingly took Kenny's bag and took a hard sip.

Kenny ordered to stop recuperating and continue the march north, the soldiers were tired after cleaning the battlefield, but it was better to move on than to die, after all, they had chosen to lick the blood from the knife edge, at least they still had dry bread in their bags, and low-quality berry wine, and their clothes were warm enough.

Kenny walked behind the large army, and in order to command the troops to meet the oncoming enemy forces at any time, Lawrence led the team in front to avoid getting lost. The troops had just advanced less than five miles, and the rear was once again full of killings, and all the soldiers immediately turned around to meet them, and this time the peace army obviously had learned from the past, and did not immediately start attacking after catching up with the coalition army. They were well aware of Kenny's command ability and the speed of the Allied Legion's reaction.

The two sides were at a stalemate for some time, and neither of them launched the attack first. The Confederates have put on a new formation, which is more like Kenny showing off his command skills. The torches of the first platoon whistled westward in the wind, and their blood-covered faces were no longer tired, but only firm, as if the war had not yet begun, and they had already won.

Kenny on his horse began to be a little impatient, but no one was not afraid of the darkness, he could not estimate the number of Peace troops who stopped this time, and the black torches covered the forest in front of him like a fire net, and he could not see the edge.

When there was no movement on either side, there was a sound of fighting behind Kenny, and Kenny turned around to see that his rear was already on fire, and the sound of fighting was getting closer and closer.

"Report to the lord, the front is under a surprise attack by the Peace Army, Duke Lawrence has fought with the enemy army, and the situation is now unknown!" a cavalry hurried report.

"What?!" Kenny reacted at this time, from the brief victory just now to the current confrontation, all this is a ploy of the Peace Army, Kenny, who knew that it was too late to regret the plan, immediately launched a breakthrough attack on the enemy army in front of him.

The neighing of horses, the clashing of weapons, and the blood instantly stained the snow of the Red Oak Forest. Kenny sits on his horse and slashes at the enemy, when a cold arrow flies from the opposite side, shooting Kenny under his horse. In the panic, the coalition army was not as orderly as before, the opposing cavalry rushed into the coalition army formation again and again, more and more coalition soldiers fell, the whole battle lasted only 10 minutes, and the coalition army of 5,000 people was scattered by the cavalry of the peace army, divided and broken one by one.

Kenny, with an arrow in his left arm, struggled to his feet, and he and a hundred and ten infantry guards were surrounded, facing them by the cold blades of the Peace Army.

The sounds of killing around him gradually became quieter, replaced by the painful howls of the wounded Confederate soldiers, and finally even the howls were no longer heard. The peace forces that surrounded him suddenly dispersed, and a group of guards and a well-blooded horse marched towards him. Through the firelight, Kenny sees his long-lost 'friend', the leader of the Peace Army, Bill William.
