Chapter 186: Fighting in the Night

Yulian walked out of the door, stretched out, and then lazily turned his body, patted his head, and threw aside the useless murmur in his ears.

After that raid during the day, the entire Crimson Fortress was immediately busy. Especially after the prisoners captured by Tyre were delivered, the Celtic general and his men were almost as excited as if they had been beaten with blood. However, in Yu Lian's opinion, it is no wonder, although it is a small-scale contact, but after all, this is the first time that the Sith Empire launched a test against West, and West not only failed miserably, but won a game first, you must know that the war is about this kind of invisible and untouchable momentum, if you can make a good start, then people's confidence will be more sufficient. If you don't get out of school at the beginning, then you will be very passive. And now, instead of being breached, the right flank line has won a victory. This is enough for them to write a lot of money, you know, because of the coercion of the four generals of the Sith Empire, the soldiers and generals in the fortress have always been deeply disturbed about the battle with the Sith Empire. There are even people who fantasize about whether the other party has some three heads and six arms, and they will kill them all with one look. I have to say that this is extremely demoralizing, although because of strict military discipline, no one talks nonsense everywhere. But under the stability of the usual, there is always a faint uneasiness. So, this time Celtic was so happy precisely because he had found a means that could be used to boost morale.

The Sith Empire is not invincible, they can also be defeated!

If this belief can be deeply rooted in the hearts of the soldiers, then the next battle will be easier!

Of course, this degree must be mastered well, and it cannot be hyped up, after all, it is only a small squad of the front-line division and regiment that was arrested, and if you attach too much importance to it, you will show your courage. However, if you look down too much, it will make your soldiers think that their commander is incompetent, so you must grasp a scale between the two to get the best effect in the shortest time. Of course, this is not something that Yuren needs to consider.

And through the questioning of those prisoners, General Celtic also got a lot of first-hand information about the Scythian [***] team, and this made him very worried. For according to the confessions of these captives, for the time being, Sidwig and Karan's troops are still stationed in the depths of Orrut's territory, and there is no major movement. However, the Sith Empire sent two legions of about 50,000 men from the territory, and if it was said that this was to completely take over the territory of Orut, it was obviously too much.

And in this way, there is only one possible surname, and that is that the Sith Empire is going to change the way they fight.

Since the beginning of the Sith Empire, all their battles have been built on the bodies of four gifted knights, and every battle has been led by them and won. And the reason why the Sith Empire did this was largely because they were originally a small country with limited troops and could not withstand attrition. If you let an ordinary general lead the troops, you may win the battle, but the casualties will be very large. And under the command of the gifted knight, the casualties can be reduced to a minimum.

That's why although the Sith Empire has always been very strong, it has not made all the countries on the continent talk about it, the strongest point is the weakest point, if they can only rely on those four talented knights, then as long as they find an opportunity to contain these four people, the Sith Empire will become a toothless tiger, no threat at all.

And judging from the current situation, it is obvious that the Sith Empire also knows where its weakness lies, and according to the confessions of the captives, these front-line divisions and regiments have been strictly trained in the empire for several years before they are finally sent to the battlefield. There were even soldiers who had been trained under two gifted knights, Lintillot and Nahias, before returning to the legion to continue their training. In other words, these two 50,000-strong legions are composed of a group of veterans with considerable combat experience and a group of recruits who have passed the rigorous test -- this is enough to show that the Sith Empire has long been prepared, and when the four Knights of Damnation expand their territory, the Sith Empire is also enriching its own strength, and these two front-line legions of 50,000 people are their representatives!

This discovery made Celtic worried, but there were only 100,000 of the two front-line divisions combined, so there should be other legions? How many people were there? Who were these people?

This intelligence has completely exceeded their previous evaluation of the Sith Empire. They originally thought that even if the Sith Empire gained a large territory, there would be no way to gather and train more soldiers in such a short period of time, but they didn't expect that they had already begun planning and preparation?

Because of this, at the end of the interrogation, Celtic was already a little absent-minded, and after hastily thanking Yuren, he quickly left, apparently he wanted to report the news to His Majesty, after all, the information behind this information was very disturbing.

But none of this has anything to do with Yuren anymore.

"Master, the meeting is over?"

Charlotte's figure ghostly appeared behind Yu Lian, as Yu Lian's personal maid, especially after having an intimate relationship with Yu Lian "again", this head maid lady has now basically become Yu Lian's shadow and is inseparable from him.

"It's over. ”

Yulian rubbed his head and threw out the information that made him dizzy, and then asked.

"What are the others doing?"

"Miss O'Fariel and Miss Judy are out on patrol, and Miss Messiah and Miss Semia are resting. ”

After taking over the right flank, Julien changed the route and method of patrolling, with the twin sisters leading the cavalry of the noble coalition during the day, and Ofariel leading her mercenary group and Judy's dragon knights defending at night. Because of the darkness of the night, dragons flying in the sky are also difficult to spot, which can be regarded as a hidden strategy. Of course, in Yulian's original plan, he didn't plan to call Ofariel, but Her Royal Highness the former princess strongly asked herself to join. The reason is that since she has already made a plan, she must see for herself whether there are any shortcomings and loopholes in this plan, and change and make up for it at any time. Since Ofariel said so, Yuren didn't stop it. Anyway, even if there is any danger, with Judy watching in the sky, nothing serious will happen. Moreover, Ofariel is not alive anymore, so naturally it is impossible to be killed again, so it is unlikely that anything will happen.

"Well, let's go back. ”

After hearing Charlotte's report, Yulian stretched, then took a long breath.

"It's boring, I have meetings every day, and I can't come up with anything...... What's worse is that the food is not very delicious, so what's the point of having these meetings? It's really exhausting people half to death. ”

"So, after you go back, do you need me to dispel it for you?"

"I want to remind you, Charlotte, half of the reason why I'm so tired is the result of your 'dissipation' for me, be content, and besides, there are two little ones who need my help......"

"Those two young ladies won't mind. ”

"But I mind ......"

The night breeze turned cold.

Offariel reached out and brushed her hair, staring at the slope in front of her. By her side, she was followed by ten orc mercenaries, who had become Ofariel's personal soldiers since the Battle of the River Valley, and now they came out to protect her safety.

The line of defense is already dense.

Observing the sentry in front of him closely, Ofariel nodded in satisfaction. At night, it is not possible to use mobile sentry posts for uninterrupted passing and defense as is the case during the day. First, it will consume energy, and secondly, it will also expose its own characteristics to the enemy. Under Julien's tutelage, O'Faryl has learned a lot about defense. Therefore, she used the situation of the dark post at night, with the help of the harsh terrain of the entire right flank defense line, the dark post was arranged to lurk at various key positions, and once the enemy was found, she did not need to report immediately, but waited for the opponent to enter the trap before sending a signal.

Of course, this was a small attempt by O'Faryl himself, and Julien and Judy didn't think that this kind of defense would have any effect, but it really didn't matter to them. Anyway, Offariel has just entered the battlefield, no matter how talented she is, she is still a rookie, and if she wants to hone from the battlefield, she will have to pay the price of blood. The premise is that as long as it is not your own blood, then there is nothing at all. And now, these secret sentinels sent by Ofaril are basically the private soldiers of the aristocratic coalition, and Yulian is of course not distressed at all. In his opinion, these coalition privates were toys for the former princess to gain experience - and that's it.

"How's the situation around?"

"Everything is fine, my lord. ”

An orc mercenary standing behind Ofariel replied. This made O'Faryl relax a little.

"That's good, I think, since they have been here during the day, then presumably the empire should know that we will strengthen the vigilance, so the possibility of them appearing again is still very small, as long as everyone is vigilant and don't relax, then presumably the problem is not very big. ”

Saying this, Ofaril paused, then secretly clenched his fists and waved slightly. The daytime victory also made her extremely excited, and it was the first time that Ofaril felt the excitement and joy of the battlefield. In the first battle, Ofariel's disgust prevailed due to the murder of his own hands. This time, however, it was the first time she had tasted the feeling of "everything under control"! O'Faryl even liked it a little, and she couldn't wait to taste it again.

Of course, these emotions are human, and although O'Faryl is excited, he has not forgotten his job. Forced to use reason to suppress his feelings, after all, war is to die, even if he enjoys victory, but when he thinks of dying, Ofariel still can't accept it very indifferently like Yulian.

"Then, then, according to the plan, you will separate your patrols, pay attention, and report to me immediately if there is any situation. ”

Soon, O'Faryl reined in his emotions and quickly gave the order. The orc mercenaries who followed her agreed in unison, and then turned to leave.

And at this moment, the mutation protruded.

Offariel didn't see what was happening at all, because in the next moment, the orc mercenary in front of her had already fallen to the ground without a word, and the splattered blood cut an arc in the night sky, and then sprayed on Ofaril's body. It wasn't until she felt the warm, viscous liquid that Ofaril was startled, but at this moment, a sharp, glowing thin sword had already appeared on her neck.

"Violet long hair, royal blood. ”

An icy, elegant, and soft voice came from behind O'Faryl, with great excitement and excitement.

"I really didn't expect to find such a good prey as soon as I came. ”

At this moment, Ofaril's heart was cold, she didn't expect that she would be attacked here. You must know that this is the middle of the right flank defense line, and it is impossible for ordinary people to come over! Moreover, according to their own arrangements, even if anyone dared to rush here, the alarm would have already been triggered, so what is going on now? Why is there no movement from the enemy who have already crossed half the distance of the defense line?

"You......... Who is it?"

Gritting her teeth, Ofariel asked. She had already seen clearly that in front of her, the ten orc mercenaries who followed her had all died without suspense at this moment. And next to their corpses, dozens of riders appeared. O'Fariel is sure that just now, there should be no one here but himself!!

Was the line of defense dodged, or was it breached?

In an instant, O'Faryl quickly searched his brain for the outposts he had set up in the vicinity, it was impossible, it was impossible for these outposts to be blind to these cavalry, where did they come from, and how?

"Oh, by the way, I haven't introduced myself yet. ”

The voice was still very leisurely, without even the slightest anxiety and consciousness of being in enemy territory.

"It doesn't matter, though, beautiful miss. Tonight, you are everything to me, and I think it will not be too late to tell you my name when you and I are honest with each other when we get to bed. ”

“..................!!”

Ofaryl gritted her teeth, anger burning inside her. However, at this moment, she still has no way to act rashly. Since the other party can come behind him without even being aware of it, it already shows how powerful it is. But what do you do next? Will someone come to save you?

Thinking of this, Ofariel's mind suddenly appeared with the figure of Yuren, which made her suddenly startled. No, it can't be. He's supposed to be in the fortress for a combat readiness meeting now, isn't he?

"I advise you not to act rashly, beautiful young lady. ”

Just as Ofaril was surprised, she suddenly felt her hands being reversed, and then twisted behind her back.

"You are a beautiful young lady, and if you do anything, then I will have to deal with you roughly. I don't think that's polite behavior for a beautiful lady. And ............"

At this point, the other party's speech stopped. But O'Faryl could feel that his serpent-like gaze was watching her body, her own skin, and although O'Faryl was wearing clothes, it still made her feel very uncomfortable under the gaze of this gaze. It is true that O'Faryl has met many men who covet his beauty, but there has never been a man whose gaze is so explicit and so disgusting. It's like a snail crawling on top of you, and it's an uncomfortable feeling.

"This is the territory of the Kingdom of West!"

However, Ofariel is not intimidated, and she also has her own trump card. After all, she is no longer the powerless girl.

"You invaders............"

"I don't care about that. ”

The other party clearly didn't care what O'Faryl was saying.

"For me, you are everything now, beautiful young lady. For your sake, I can do nothing...... Well, that's a bit of a sagmy to say that here. I think we should go to a better place and get to know each other better, and then you will know what a good man I am. I can assure you, beautiful young lady, that you will be my cutest pet........."

As he spoke, the man reached out and began to stroke Ofaril's beautiful long hair, who was grim and gritted his teeth.

And at this moment, a red light flashed.

Fierce red flames pierced the night sky and roared down. The scorching wave of qi churned instantly, and the man's reaction was also very fast, and at the same time as the red flame appeared, he had already twisted his body and jumped away in an instant. But Offariel didn't flee, she didn't even have time to turn around, and then she was completely enveloped in the surging, surging, and devastating dragon's breath, and disappeared.

Accompanied by the firelight, a huge red dragon appeared in the night sky, and the red-haired girl sat quietly on the head and neck of the red dragon, staring coldly at the intruders of unknown origin below.

"Sure enough, it's a dragon knight, and it's really worthy of its name. ”

With the strong dragon might, even the war horses ridden by the surrounding cavalry began to become uneasy at this moment. And the faces of those soldiers also showed more or less fear. Only the half-elf man standing in the center did not change, instead, he raised his head, squinted his eyes at Judy, and licked his lips gently.

"It's a pity that the young lady died before I tasted it, but I really didn't think that a replacement would be ushered in so soon......... I really want to feel this beautiful red-haired lady, how are you going to show me your fiery passion?"
