Chapter 61: On the Eve of the Decisive Battle

The Duke of Glasburg thought for a moment and said, "Actually, I also brought a very bad news this time. The Royal Expeditionary Force and several other principalities fought a second battle with the invaders this morning, only to be wiped out, and even the crown prince of our Redwood Kingdom was killed. ”

The royal family has always been on the same side as the Duke of Glasburg, and has been suppressing the Duke of Blue Wolf. However, instead of rejoicing at what happened to his opponent, Birek felt a chill welling up from the bottom of his heart.

"How many people are there in the coalition army?" Duke Blue Wolf couldn't help but ask.

"Seventy thousand. The Duke of Glassburg said the number with a wry smile.

Duke Blue Wolf frowned, and his voice became a little dry: "Seventy thousand...... Didn't the invaders fight a bloody battle with the Baroque coalition yesterday?"

"Yes. ”

Duke Wolf's mood suddenly became extremely heavy. The enemy first routed the more than 100,000 Baroque coalition troops that came prepared, almost swept away the Baroque townsmen, and then marched straight forward, annihilating the 70,000-strong Sequoia coalition army, and only rested for one night in between.

You know, it is much more difficult to annihilate an army on the battlefield than to defeat it. Once the battle losses reach a certain percentage, no matter how disciplined the army is, it will collapse. And if it is a coalition force, the proportion will be even lower.

Reilly smiled and asked, "So, how many enemies did they destroy?"

"Three thousand ......" the Duke of Glasburg said unwillingly, "Before the decisive battle with the coalition forces, the invaders were about sixteen thousand. ”

"That is, we have only thirteen thousand enemies. Reilly said with a smile.

The Duke of Glasburg hesitated for a moment and said, "But they are still strong. ”

"The two Dukes, and the Countess, you have seen the performance of my warriors. If I had led 16,000 elite soldiers and 70,000 allied troops, what do you think would have happened?" Richard said.

The faces of the two dukes were slightly softened, if Richard led the troops, the royal coalition would inevitably be defeated, but it was unlikely to be completely annihilated. The ability of the invaders to bring tens of thousands of troops into the Faro plane is evident in their strength. If the royal alliance can win the war, the gods don't need to jointly issue oracles.

Seeing their expressions, Richard said, "And now, we have gathered 50,000 troops. He pointed downward, his face revealing a strong confidence: "So I'm going to beat them all back to my hometown, right here!"

――――――――――――――――――――

In the next few days, the Norland Expeditionary Force was full of momentum, breaking through the tens of thousands of troops sent by the three principalities along the way, but they did not stop and went straight to the bloodstained land!

On the edge of the Land of Turmoil, on a Gobi with a large number of stone pillars, Raymond finally met his lifelong enemy, Richard.

On this small land, Richard deployed more than 50,000 troops, built a large number of fortifications, and arranged ambushes on the periphery.

When he saw Richard standing at the top of the tower, Raymond knew that this was the battlefield chosen by the other party. However, he was more concerned about Reilly standing next to Richard! Since the first time he sniped Richard, Raymond has been paying attention to Reilly's movements. When Richard first returned to Norland from Farrow, Raymond learned that Rayleigh had appeared with him, and judged that the two were working together on an Xenoplane.

Before entering Faro, Raymond thought of the possibility of the other party appearing on the battlefield. However, when he actually saw Reilly, his heart inevitably sank. In Raymond's opinion, there must be an extremely powerful family behind Rayleigh, not comparable to the nouveau riche like Akmund. You must know that his tuition for one year in Deep Blue is comparable to Gordon's military expenses for several years. Raymond also doesn't want to meet such an opponent on the battlefield if he can. However, just as Richard had to face Joseph, Raymond now had to face Reilly, and this is the fate of the nobility.

Although they were far away, both Richard and Raymond saw each other. With the aid of magic, the caster's eyesight can reach astonishing levels.

The eyes of the two collided in the air, almost sparks!

"Sure enough, it's Raymond of the Joseph family......" Richard turned around and said, "I heard he's your fiancΓ©?"

Rocky stood behind him and said, "It used to be." ”

"Alright, you can stand in the back. Don't let him see you and affect his judgment. Richard said.

Reilly smiled playfully and said, "You're a bit of a man, Richard." ”

Luo Qi was surprised, she thought for a while, and said: "Master, Raymond has deep feelings for me, but I don't have a place for him in my heart. I can stand by your side, and that might hit him. ”

Richard looked at her deeply, then said with a smile, "I'm not testing you! As for Raymond......"

He narrowed his eyes and looked at Raymond in the distance, and said, "I've never been afraid of thinking opponents, but I'm only worried about those who have gone crazy. ”

"Like Sinclair?" said Reilly.

Richard thought about it seriously and said, "If you want to choose between Raymond and Sinclair as an opponent, then I choose Raymond." ”

"However, you don't have the power to choose. Reilly shrugged his shoulders and said, "Because your last name is Akmund." ”

Richard smiled and said, "So, I will bury all of Akmund's enemies." ”

The Norland warriors on the opposite side did not need Raymond's orders, they lined up a strict formation by themselves, and a strong murderous aura rose to the sky!

Raymond said to one of the archmagisers, "Master, please help me. Let me fly and let my voice reach Richard's ears. ”

The archmage nodded, and with a wave of his staff, a magical light appeared on Raymond's body, and then rose into the sky.

"Richard!" Raymond's words resounded throughout the battlefield under the influence of magic.

"It's Raymond!" Richard looked relaxed, and didn't mean to compare the volume with Raymond, but just used directional transmission.

"Richard, we have finally met on the plane battlefield. Raymond said with emotion.

"You're in luck. Richard laughed, "After a while, you won't be qualified to be my opponent." Why, when he didn't succeed in playing the conspiracy, he lost his own brother, and now he finally learns to fight with dignity?"

"Didn't Akmund die too?" Raymond said lightly.

Richard laughed and said, "That fool would believe you, and you deserve to die." But that's also a loss for Akmund?"

Raymond smiled: "I'm talking about a man named Gordon, and the person who made him unable to come out of the Rocky plane is me." ”

A cold light flashed in Richard's eyes, and then he said casually: "Actually, the biggest mistake in your life is to send Gordon to the Rocky plane, so that I can get the opportunity to sit in the position of the patriarch of Akmund. You will soon find out that it is me who sits in this position, and it will be even more unpleasant for you than Gordon!"

Raymond nodded and said, "Okay! Richard, I really didn't misunderstand you, you are indeed qualified to be my enemy!"

Richard sighed and said slowly, "Before today, I thought so. Now, though, I've figured it out, you're not my enemy at all, it's just ...... It's just a nuisance. ”

A black aura swept across Raymond's face, he no longer looked at Richard, and instead said to Rayleigh: "Your Excellency Rayleigh, today's war is a matter for Akmund and Joseph, and I don't think you need to get involved. If you can remain neutral, the Joseph family will surely send you a satisfactory thank you!"

Reilly smiled and said, "Are you going to kick Richard out so that I can monopolize Faro? ”

"It seems that this battle is inevitable. Raymond shook his head, turned to the soldiers of the Norland Expeditionary Force and shouted, "Do you hear that? The man on the other side, with a group of soldiers from the lower planes, thinks that we are not qualified to be his enemies!"

There was a dead silence in the phalanx of the Norlanders, but the murderous aura emitted was getting more and more fierce. Raymond brought with him all warriors and had participated in more than one dimensional war. In the face of these low-level natives, they don't need to roar to boost morale and intimidate their opponents.

"Okay! Just let me see how much trouble you Raymond can cause me!" Richard turned to face his own warriors with a wild smile on his face, "Guys, the invaders want to take our homeland. ”

Hearing his words, the coalition soldiers showed angry expressions.

Richard snatched a battle flag from the guards behind him and planted it on the stone tower, and said loudly: "I, Richard Akmund, will stand with this banner and will never retreat!"

Under the influence of magic, his voice resounded throughout the battlefield.

With a bang, the Faro coalition army let out bursts of waves-like cries, and the soldiers were all enthusiastic!

Raymond fell to the ground and said to the generals around him: "Ladies and gentlemen, we will never be able to go home unless we open the passage ahead!

The generals gave Raymond a military salute and walked around the phalanx.

Raymond said to the archmage beside him, "Master, from now on, I need you to protect me and allow my orders to reach the ears of every warrior. ”

"As you wish!" the Archmage bowed slightly.

Raymond looked at Richard from afar, raised his right hand high, then fell, and shouted, "Norlanders, march!"
