1530. The Marquis's Troubles

The demon warriors first took a bath in the poisonous swamp of abomination, and just as they became weak, they were caught off guard by the ghost-striped red ants and the hoplites.

The whole battlefield became very miserable, a large number of corpses of demons and ghost soldiers and ants fell in the wild grass, this time the Western Route Army invested 20,000 ghost soldiers and 30,000 heavy infantry in the Mevaji West Canyon, and at this moment there were less than 9,000 demon soldiers who could stand on the frontal battlefield.

The only demon general was also killed by Gullitham and Carry. Decker and Naomi joined forces to round up.

In fact, the two-headed ogre Gullitham and Carrie. Decker's two second-turn powerhouses were in front, and they had already dragged the demon general on the battlefield, and the necromancer Naomi just let the skeleton warriors around him rush up and threw two bottles of corpse poison at the ghost general, and it didn't take long for the ghost general's body to start flowing viscous purple blood from all the joints of his body, and Gulitham and Jialidecker clearly felt that the ghost general's movements had weakened.

Gulit and Galidker didn't even want to kill the demon general, they just wanted to drag the demon general here.

Just waiting for the situation on the battlefield to be completely determined, I am dispatching a group of ghost soldiers and ants to come over and work together to surround and kill this evil ghost general.

But he didn't expect a small skeleton warrior 'Kacha Kacha' to run in front of the demon general, and the ghost general cracked the skeleton warrior to pieces with a sword, but before the skeleton warrior shattered, the poison bottle in his hand had been thrown out.

Then the demon general was stained with some disgusting rotten juice, and at first, the demon general didn't think that the juice had any effect, at most it was full of foul smell, which made people feel a little disgusting.

But as time passed, the venom began to work, and the muscles in the demon general's bone armor showed signs of melting.

There was some viscous purple blood oozing from his body, and the demon general felt the power in his body slowly pass away, and the big stick in the hands of the two-headed ogre began to feel extremely difficult, and the heavy gunman's musket began to fire frequently.

The large lead bullets sprayed from Santos' shotgun carried a scorching fire breath, and even the demon general's bone armor was extremely strong, and the exoskeleton at the joints under the close bombardment began to shatter.

It wasn't until Garry Decker knocked off one of the Demon General's left arms that the one-armed Demon General lost half of his combat power.

The two-headed ogre stepped on the 'Flame Trail', turning the battlefield into a sea of fire, and the demon general finally fell in front of the two-headed ogre.

The moment the demon general fell, the entire battlefield of the Mevajisi Gorge was surrounded by heavy infantry soldiers, and the few remaining demon warriors faced the ghost soldiers who were not afraid of death, and the fierce determination they had shown on the battlefield in the past turned into a desperate run.

The last shred of courage to fight also disappeared under the flood of ghost soldiers, and the battlefield was left with only heavy infantry soldiers with axes to harvest the heads of demons.

The battle lasted only half a day, and by dusk, the demons that were still alive on the battlefield were nowhere to be found.

The price paid by the Western Route Army for this victory was probably only the more than 6,000 ghost pattern soldier ants that fell with the demon warriors, and nearly half of the remaining more than 14,000 ghost pattern red ants were injured, and even their limbs and legs or giant pincers were cut off, but don't worry, these ghost pattern soldiers with broken limbs and legs can still grow back.

……

At this time, hundreds of adventuring groups watched the battle at the entrance of the canyon.

The members of the adventuring group were still in a very complicated mood, they hoped that the Western Route Army would win this battle, but they were so jealous that they had won a big victory, so that they could only rush into the canyon and dense forest to risk if they wanted to drink soup.

Watch as a row of axe-armed infantry warriors stomped on the corpses of demons in the setting sun to collect their heads.

The subsequent actions of these infantry fighters made the members of the adventure party a little incomprehensible......

They actually cut off all the heads of the ghost-patterned soldiers and ants that died on the battlefield and piled them together.

It's just that most of the adventure groups didn't find out, and when the Western Route Army was not completely sure of the victory, several adventure groups sneaked into the dense forests on both sides of the canyon from the side, and among these adventure groups that acted in advance was the Hayes adventure group.

With the victory of the Battle of Mevaji West Canyon, the confidence of the adventuring group who watched the battle at the entrance of the canyon was greatly increased in the Western Route Army.

A large number of adventuring groups enter the depths of the canyon for a hunting feast.

The heavy infantry regiment of Gallideker rested hastily for the night, packed up its tent before dawn, and chased it in the direction of the main army of the Western Route Army with more than 2,000 wounded soldiers.

Only more than 3,000 ghost-patterned soldier ants and one Druyin remained in the canyon on this side.

These ghostly soldiers need to recuperate for a few days before they can leave the canyon......

And the only person who paid the most for this battle was the necromancer Naomi, the abomination squadron she had worked so hard to accumulate for more than two months was completely destroyed in this battle, and even the skeleton warriors who had been accompanying her were crackled to pieces by the demon general.

Naomi found the skull of the skeleton warrior shattered in half on the battlefield, and found that there was still the last faint trace of soul fire in his eye socket.

When Naomi collected the soul fragments scattered around the battlefield and added fuel to the Skeleton Warrior's Soul Fire, the flames in the Skeleton Warrior's eye sockets burst into clusters of sparks, and the Soul Fire in the Skeleton Warrior's eye sockets turned out to be stronger than before.

As for the shattered bones, Naomi reglued them with fish glue by hand, but it didn't look very strong.

When the skeleton warrior got back on his feet, the bones in his body would still crackle and fall down, and at a glance it looked as if he was about to fall apart completely after taking a few steps......

Naomi saw the corpse of the demon general lying not far away, his head, bone spurs, and black veined demon skin...... All the valuable things had been looted by the hoplite warriors, and now only some hard bone armor remained, and Naomi thought for a moment, then walked over to collect the bone armor and put it in her magic waist bag.

She's going to equip the skeleton warriors with some bone armor, but the ghost generals' hard bone armor will take a little time to be patiently polished.

So this time, instead of returning to the main army of the Western Route Army with Gallidecker, she chose to stay in the Mevaji West Canyon with more than 3,000 wounded ghost-patterned soldiers.

At the same time, hundreds of adventuring groups have scattered into the depths of the canyon to hunt the evil spirits hiding in the canyon.

……

On the edge of the Vigliagasi hills, a group of swordsmen in armor rode along the southernmost boundary line, from east to west.

The Grand Master of this Constructed Swordsman Regiment is Simon. Marquis Geoffrey, whose main task as a team of constructed swordsmen is to ensure that the line of the Boundary Monument to the south of the reinforcement territory always exists.

There were many territorial disputes between noble lords, which were caused by the unclear boundary marker lines.

Of course, this often happens if there is not much harmony between the lords of the two territories.

Generally speaking, it is artificially moving boundary markers and expanding territory privately, and as long as this kind of thing is not caught red-handed, no one can say clearly.

The Marquis of Heller was worried that Surdak would privately reduce the land area occupied by the reinforcements when he saw that he had included a large area of the best land in the western part of Moyun Ridge in the area occupied by the reinforcements.

It was precisely this Vigliagasi Hill that had a vein of gemstones, and in order to ensure that the boundary line to the south was not privately moved by the Western Route Army, Simon. The Marquis Geoffrey led 1,500 swordsmen in armor to guard the line.

Lately, Marquis Geoffrey and his Constructed Swordsmen have been patrolling the area.

In the past few days, he saw the Western Route Army's Constructed Knights operating in this hilly area, and the two sides just passed by from a distance, and soon disappeared from each other's field of vision.

Marquis Geoffrey felt that the combat effectiveness of the Constructed Knights of the Western Route Army was actually the same thing, although some rumors circulating in the city of Handanar were saying how heroic the Constructed Knights of the Western Route Army were, but now it seems that it is likely to be an exaggeration.

In the Grimm Empire, when singing the praises of a certain army, it is often embellished with many words, making these Constructed Knights like the Royal Lion Eagle Knights......

The Marquis Geoffrey even did some detailed analysis:

First of all, the war horses of the Western Route Army are not very good, the reason is very simple, more than 80% of those war horses are Gubolai horses.

As we all know, although the Gubolai horse is not bad in terms of endurance, it has great defects in explosiveness and strength, which means that the Guboraima charges on the battlefield, and the power will be greatly reduced, and the Guboraima does not move and wears heavy armor knights.

In the Grimm Empire, the most suitable war horse for charging is the black scale horse, followed by the green scale horse, and these two war horses are generally equipped with the Knights and Heavy Cavalry Regiments.

The Constructed Knights of Lord Surdak had less than two hundred greenscale horses.

Because of this, the Marquis Geoffrey thought that this knightly horse was not very good.

The second is that these knights are not noble knights, and the armor they wear is all primary magic pattern equipment, which is basically some cheap goods, and you can know at a glance that they are all selected from the infantry regiment, although this kind of knights have rich combat experience, but they have not learned the skills and tactics of the knights.

How could such a constructed knight be combative?

Finally, the time for the formation of this Constructed Knights is very short, and an excellent Constructed Knights needs to have a certain background, and only after the precipitation of time can a Constructed Knights have a unique fighting style, rather than conformist battles.

Obviously, the Western Route Army's Constructed Knights didn't have that, Simon. The Marquis Geoffrey even thought that the Knights of Constructed Arms were made up of a group of peasants and natives from the countryside.

Of course, he really didn't see how the Constructed Knights of the Western Route Army performed on the battlefield.

In the city of Handanar, it is rumored that they are invincible on the battlefield on this side of Moyunling......

Now Simon. Marquis Jeffrey led a group of constructed swordsmen into the Moyunling Heights, and the demons saw his group of constructed swordsmen, and they would also drill into the mountains in a hurry, which had to make the Marquis Simon Jeffrey begin to seriously reflect: Could it be that the demons on this side of the Moyunling Heights are a group of cowards that have created such a good reputation of the Western Route Army Constructed Knights?

It's not that he hasn't met evil ghosts, but the performance of these evil ghosts is really special, not only when he sees the Constructed Knights, but even when he sees a large number of heavy infantry regiments, they will actually flee from the wind, which is really rare......

While patrolling the area, Simon Jeffrey's Constructed Swordsmen also encountered some demon squads.

The swordsmen of the constructs rode horses to hunt, and in ten days, they easily harvested more than fifty black magic crystals......

If he had known that the Black Magic Crystal was so easy to obtain, he would have come to the battlefield in the northern district of Handanar County a long time ago, and of course it was not too late!

After a few days of smooth fighting, Marquis Geoffrey's confidence was a little over-inflated, and he began to be a little dissatisfied with the patrol mission at this stage, feeling that his army of armored swordsmen was running back and forth here, which was a great waste of war resources.

Of course, he didn't want to use these 1,500 constructed swordsmen to face those demon legions that were often thousands.

He knew that he could not convince Valentine, who was bent on expanding the territory he occupied but desperately reluctant to go to war. Marquis Heller also said that he couldn't go to the Moyunling Heights to buy the Black Magic Crystal, so after thinking about it for a few days, he set his sights on the adventure group in the Moyunling Heights.

He found that in fact, these adventuring groups that could break through on the Moyunling Heights had good combat effectiveness, and almost all of them ambushed and killed lone evil ghosts when they encountered them, and quickly dodged when they encountered groups of evil ghosts.

Each party member has horses, and they are free to move around the highlands......

Therefore, the Marquis Geoffrey had an idea in his heart, that is, he wanted to persuade some adventuring groups to temporarily join his group of constructed swordsmen, as long as it could reach the scale of 3,000 to 5,000 people, then he could wantonly plunder those evil spirits on the high ground like locusts, even if he encountered a horde of evil spirits, he should have the strength to fight.

So whenever the Marquis Geoffrey encounters an adventure group in the past few days, he will personally go over to talk to the leaders of those adventure groups.

When the leaders of the adventuring groups on the Moyunling Heights heard some of his thoughts, almost all of them shook their heads very firmly, and they had no interest in joining his temporary raiding group at all.

Regarding the reluctance of these adventuring groups to join the temporary raiding group, Simon . The Marquis Geoffrey said that he couldn't understand it at all, after all, it was a win-win thing, the evil ghosts on the plateau were instigated to death, and they could kill them all if they rushed up, and there would be no loss......

But all the leaders of the adventure group refused to answer when they asked for reasons.

In fact, the leaders of these adventurous groups knew very well in their hearts that the reinforcements of Handanar City came to the Moyunling Heights, and they did nothing to carve out a large area of land in the western part of the highlands and become their occupation area.

This is completely a manifestation of the imminent benefits of the Western Route Army, and Lord Surdak, as the commander, will definitely not tolerate this kind of thing.

At this time, whoever stands on the side of the reinforcements in Handanar City means that they want to stand on the opposite side of the Western Route Army, so how can the members of the adventure group be sent to the Western Route Army medical team for treatment if they are injured in the future, and how can they get the magic weapons and magic medicines on the merit exchange list......

These are the biggest problems!
