Ant cavalry constantly appeared in the mountains around the forest camp, posing a considerable threat to the demon warriors who patrolled the forest.

Originally, in this mountain forest, it was a group of Bednar swordsmen who could deal with the demon warriors, but at the beginning of the year, Duke Newman suddenly gave up the battle plan to advance north, and the Bednar Constructed Swordsmen stationed in the forest camp withdrew from the forest camp.

The garrison in the forest camp was only responsible for keeping the evil spirits of Moyun Ridge at bay, keeping them at bay in the mountains of northern Handanar County.

In fact, after the Bena Constructed Swordsmen withdrew from the forest camp, the Demon Legion seized the absolute initiative in the skirmishes in the wild.

During this time, the scout team at the Tree Farm Camp did not even dare to set foot in the Kandaur Mountains.

No one expected that a Bena reinforcement would go all the way north along the Samosto River, not only completely wrapping the demon hunting groups along the way, but also transporting all the large amount of food they had hoarded to the forest camp.

This incident not only subverted the Demon Legion's perception of the Bednar Army, but the biggest problem was that the Demon Legion on Moyun Ridge needed to tighten their belts to survive recently.

The supply of the army has always been the main problem of the Warsaw plane demon legion, the demon warriors usually need to eat meat, and after the Duke of Newman occupied Handanar County, he concentrated all the people of this county in the area of Handanar City, and in the fringe area of Handanar County, it is rare to see imperial immigrants.

The demon warriors hunted the hordes of wild beasts in the mountains, as well as some local indigenous tribes.

In the past few years since the demons conquered the Warsaw plane, they have only blindly occupied and destroyed, and they have hunted down the slightly larger beasts in the mountains.

Until now, the demon legion needs to constantly invade the territory of the Grimm Empire in order to obtain more adequate food.

This is also a major reason why the Demon Legion gradually increased the pace of its offensive and began to quickly devour the seven counties of Warsaw.

In order to contain the Bena Legion, the Demonic Army not only deployed heavy troops along the Kempatomos River, but also set up a Demon Gate on Moyun Ridge, a mountain ridge in the northern part of Handanar County, where nearly 10,000 demon warriors guarded this mountain.

At the beginning, Duke Newman also thought of sending an elite army to completely eradicate the demon legion on Moyun Ridge when the demon legion did not stand on its footing.

It was this idea that led to the creation of a forest road in this woodland by the 57th Heavy Infantry Regiment to which Surdak was in the first place.

Unfortunately, the battle between the Bednar Legion and the Demon Legion in Moyun Ridge ended in failure.

In the following years, although Duke Newman has always been obsessed with Moyunling, he only sent troops to recapture the forest camp and guard the gate of Handanaar's backyard, and has never been willing to take another step north.

The demon legions were accustomed to this way of fighting, and the lord army of Surdak did not play cards according to the routine, and this sword stabbed down, just cutting off the logistics line of the Moyunling demon legion.

Due to the insufficient food supply of the Demon Legion in Moyun Ridge, a large number of demon hunting teams have to run out to find food.

In the area south of Moyun Ridge, the forest camp is also a fixed stronghold, and although the demon warriors have no intention of capturing the forest camp camp, they know that wandering around here will definitely encounter a human scout team......

Therefore, skirmishes in the vicinity continue every day.

Although the Ant Cavalry needs to have a threefold numerical advantage to defeat in small team battles, the Ant Cavalry can quickly withdraw from the battlefield once they are invincible in battle.

So in the recent period, although the Western Route Army has suffered casualties every day, it has also hunted every day.

It was precisely for this reason that Surdak would not be able to leave the forest camp for a while, and he didn't want the infantry soldiers of the Western Route Army to be consumed like this.

If you can save it, you must do your best to save it......

Recently, Aphrodite has been the busiest one, with the number of ant cavalry in the barracks growing every day, and the battles in the jungle have begun to show more wins and fewer defeats.

For the infantry warriors of the Surdak Lord's Army, the biggest gain of this time in the outer part of the forest camp with the demon warriors is that almost every warrior has learned to peel the black veins on the demons, which is a skinning skill and an important way for the warriors to earn extra money.

The free market on the dirt slope outside the camp finally had a little spring, and every day the merchants waited for the infantry soldiers in the camp to trade the black-streaked demon skins to them.

The heavy infantry soldiers actually hoped that the black-veined demonic skin could be exchanged for successful results, but the logistics quartermaster in the barracks was very picky about the black-veined demonskin, and as long as there was a slight flaw in the peeling process, it was returned by the logistics quartermaster, and finally went to the hands of those merchants in the free market.

It was for this reason that the caravans outside the forest camp became noisy again.

Due to the limited number of ant cavalry, and the fact that half of the Western Route Army was still on the way from Handanar City to the forest camp camp, Surdak was not prepared for a large-scale battle with the demon warriors who were active outside the camp during this time.

And the name of Surdak, the commander of the Western Route Army, also spread in the free market opposite the forest farm camp.

……

After a month and a half of 50,000 heavy infantry and 10,000 cavalry of the Western Route Army, the wind finally prevailed. Arrived at the forest camp in the dust.

The 60,000 troops arrived at the camp with hundreds of four-wheeled wagons carrying expendable supplies.

Although the situation in Epson City is extremely tense now, and most of the materials delivered from Ivorson City every day have to be distributed to other legions, as well as millions of refugees in Epson City, this time the logistics department of the Bednar Legion is still under great pressure and sent the logistics supplies of 100,000 troops to the forest camp together.

The only thing that made Surdak a little helpless was that there was still no news about the supply of the ghost-patterned soldier ants.

Samira, Jiali. Decker, Selena, Sighna, Naomi, Nika, and the medical team arrived at the forest camp with the large group, and finally let the stone hanging in Surdak's heart fall.

After all, many people in this team have special identities, Selena, who believes in the goddess of the night, Naomi, who is a necromancer, and Nika, who can feel the element of light......

Now everyone has arrived safely at the forest camp and the strength of the Western Route Army has reached 110,000 at once.

The entire barracks was suddenly lively. After Decker and Samira entered the barracks, they saw dozens of stacks of bacon in the material hoarding area at first glance, so they couldn't help but say: "What is this, is it a great gift left by friendly forces to us?" ”

"Impossible, if there was such a good thing, those guys in the logistics department wouldn't have put on a bitter face all the way!" Samira whispered in response.

Surdak hurried out of the commander's room, stretched out his arms to hug Signa, and then hugged Selena and Samira, whispered about the situation along the way, and then invited everyone into the command post.

Jiali. Decker couldn't hold back the curiosity in his heart and asked Surdak, "Boss, how did you get those stacks of bacon outside?" When we arrived in Handanar City, we were still applying for this part of the supplies from the logistics department, but we didn't expect it to be ready for a long time. ”

"We picked it up by the Samosto River when we came all the way in." Surdak lifted Signa up and sat her on his shoulder, turning to Carrie. Decker said.

Samira looked at the ant cavalry who were in and out of the camp, and watched them walk out of the camp with a gaze like a sharp arrow.

"It's a little hard to imagine that they can command these ghost-patterned soldiers so easily......" Samira sighed beside Surdak.

During the march, bathing is probably the most troublesome thing.

This time they arrived at the forest camp camp, and the group of women immediately took a bath in the bathroom on the side of the camp command post.

The best row of officers' quarters in the camp had been occupied by the Wizards' Scouts, and although there were some unused cabins in the corners, considering that some of them were sensitive. Surdak asked the craftsman to build a row of wooden houses next to the command post.

Selena was the person who had been with Surdak the longest, and she had heard Surdak talk about this desirable camp more than once.

However, there don't seem to be white tents in a row, but instead neat rows of wooden houses.

"How were you doing along the way?"

"Not bad."

Selena pulled up her long, wet hair and stood behind Signa to help her comb her hair.

Just after taking a shower, Signa's little face turned red, looking at the lively scene outside the window, it seemed that the heart had already flown outside.

"Duck, can you let me try the cavalry ants too, I think it should be interesting." Signa said with a flattering face.

"It's not going to work, it's too dangerous." Surdak refused without even thinking about it.

"Stingy......" Signa puffed out her mouth and muttered quietly.

With the Western Route Army fully stationed in the forest camp, Surdak handed over all the affairs of the camp to Andrew, and Samira was in charge of the route of the escort team. Decker had to take the cavalry regiment on this side of the forest camp to rest, and then he had to do daily training......

After arranging this, Surdak immediately set off for the Bena Army command post in the south of Handanar City,

……

Surdak and the Two-Headed Ogre traveled all the way, and it took them five days to cross the vast meadow, and the infantry soldiers of the West Route Army walked for seventeen days.

As the commander of the Western Route Army, Surdak received an order that after the Western Route Army was settled, he would take up his post as the commander of the Bena Military Headquarters.

This time, the Bednar Corps was preparing for a large-scale counteroffensive operation, and the commanders of several corps had to arrive at the Bednar Army command post to participate in the pre-battle meeting.

Surdak has only arrived until now, mainly because he has not received news of the death of Duke Ryan, and before Duke Ryan's death, Duke Newman's Bernard army will not set foot on the Moss River for half a step.

The command post of the Bednar Legion was located south of the city of Handanaar, where nearly 30,000 guards were stationed, and the Duke of Newman usually lived in this large camp.

Looking into the distance, Surdak can clearly see the outline of the city of Handanar.

This camp is also surrounded by log fences, almost all of the camp is built with simple wooden houses, columns of phalanxes run back and forth in the barracks playground, and some soldiers are basking in the sun at the gate of the camp, and the rhythm of life of the soldiers in this camp is soothing after all.

Surdak flashed his identification badge and was taken to a wooden hut by the guards at the camp gate.

Pushing open the door of the cabin, which looked not much bigger than the toilet, there was a table and chair in addition to a bed.

The space was small, but it was more than enough for Surdak to rest.

"Commander Surdak, Lord Duke is still in the war room, you can wait a moment......" The guard at the gate who led the way said earnestly to Surdak.

Surdak nodded slightly, then tied his horse to the door of the wooden house, turned his head to look at the two-headed ogre who was sitting down against the wooden house, and was about to eat, and stepped into the wooden house.

……

Before the meeting, Surdak finally met with Duke Newman.

The most powerful Grand Duke in the province of Bena actually sat at the table at the command post, with only a hard-looking piece of white bread on the plate in front of him, and he meticulously cut the white bread, and then dipped it in an unknown thick soup on the plate, and silently ate the bread into his stomach.

Finally, he drank half a glass of sweet wine slowly, and when he saw Surdak sitting on the opposite side of the table in a restrained manner, he hurriedly motioned to the servant behind him to bring Surdak a dinner plate.

The chef in the back held a silver plate and quickly added food to Surdak's plate.

At this time, Surdak looked at Duke Newman seriously, although he was middle-aged, his eyes were bright, and the beard on his face was a little gray, but it was very neatly trimmed, and his handsome face carried a vicissitudes and the majesty of the superior, and there was also some tiredness hidden in his eyes.

There was a guard standing beside him, it should be a third-turn powerhouse, because Surdak didn't feel any strong aura, but his intuition clearly told Surdak that the person in front of him was very dangerous.

Especially the two delicate storm swords on his waist, the cold light on them could almost clearly reflect the human face.

"I can always hear your name in the report lately, and you also occupy the treasure of the White Forest Plane, which originally belonged to the Bernard Legion, but unfortunately you picked the fruit before you could harvest it......" Duke Newman's voice was very deep, and there was a kind of cordiality in his voice.

He paused before he added:

"I'm guessing you've seen the queen, and it looks like you should have made some deal with it before it offered you the ants. Otherwise, even if you kill that queen, I'm afraid you won't be able to dominate those soldier ants......"
