Chapter 142: The Battle of Hope Canyon (Part I)
At the same time, two days after the battle in the Lost Dream Swamp, Alfred, the head of the Royal Knights, and his men rushed to the island of Yavit and joined the 10th Legion of the Silver Cross Expeditionary Force stationed on the island of Yavit. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Mozambique, the commander of the 10th Legion of the Crusader Expeditionary Force, immediately reported the situation of the demon army to Alferred, and he said: "General, now this expeditionary force of the demon army has arrived at the mine northeast of the port city, and has set up camp there. Because I ordered the crusaders to set up ambushes all the way, the demon army did not dare to march rashly, but this was only temporary, once the demon army was familiar with the terrain here, or if they communicated with the local monsters, they would quickly go south and attack the port city. ”
Alfred asked, "Where is your Crusader Tenth Army stationed now?"
Mozambique replied, "In order to resist the advance of the demon army, we are stationed in the stone forest where the demon army must pass through the south, that is, the stone forest where the king of the four seas, Agris, founded the kingdom of mankind. ”
Alfred said: "I have come from Canossa City day and night, but there is not much time for us to rest, so we will slow down the march for the time being, march to the garrison of your Crusader Tenth Army, repair it, and prepare to launch an attack on the demon army on the right flank of the demons, and settle the battle as soon as possible, so that we can have time to assist other battlefields." ”
Two days later, the two armies faced each other in the central part of the northeastern part of the island of Yavit, fighting to the death in the forest, but after two days of fighting, both sides suffered heavy casualties, and they did not distinguish who won and who lost, and they could not hold out for many days.
It is said that Ryan, Gilly, and Keith led the group members and the Knights Commander Samson to lead the army straight to Hope Canyon.
As soon as he left the city, Long Cheng asked, "Master Lane, what is going on, and where are we going to lead the troops out of the city?"
Although Ryan didn't want to tell them, he would also know when he faced the demon army at that time, and told them that he might still be a little prepared, so he said: "According to the report of the scouts of the Hope Canyon, the demon army has broken through the Hope Canyon garrison where the humans are stationed, and now the three expeditionary forces of the demon army have launched attacks on several major cities of the human race. ”
"Huh?" the members of the three groups were taken aback.
Red complained, "So this time the Knights advanced game is also interrupted?"
Ryan said: "Yes, now is the time for the kingdom to survive, if we can't resist the attack of the demon army, now we are going to the mouth of the canyon of hope, retake the mouth of the canyon of hope, and cut off the path that the reinforcements of the demon army must pass." ”
Puth asked, "Master Ryan, where have the three expeditionary forces of the Demon Army arrived now?"
Ryan looked at Puth, who had never been willing to take the initiative to ask questions, and said, "For this, I should also tell you that the three expeditionary forces of the Demon Army have arrived at the Snow Wolf Ice Field, Yavit Island, and the Lost Dream Swamp respectively. All three places were resisted by the generals ordered by Her Majesty, but the demon army had the crushing defeat more than ten years ago, and I think they should have full preparation and strategy, otherwise they would not dare to advance rashly. ”
"How so?" asked Lace, "Isn't the Hope Canyon heavily guarded by the Kingdom's elites?"
Jili replied, "Because of the fiasco more than ten years ago, the demons have also been accumulating strength for so many years, and they have been attacking the Hope Canyon and harassing them many times. ”
Puth added, "Master Lane, can you tell us more about the Kingdom generals and troops that Her Majesty has sent to fend off the three expeditionary forces of the Demon Army?"
Long Cheng glanced at Puth and said, "Why, your words today seem to be very special." Besides, even if you knew, you wouldn't be separated, would you, wouldn't we, and now we're heading to Hope Canyon. ”
Puth replied to him: "You idiot, you need to know the current situation in real time, grasp the situation, you have to know the other side, do you know?"
Ryan explained them one by one, and then said, "If Alama is still the head of the Templar Order, I don't think the demon army will dare to invade the human race. ”
"Oh?" asked Enki, "is Alama really that powerful?"
Ji Li said: "It's not powerful, but quite powerful, it is said that he has a lot of tricks, such as lava fountains, broken sky flame slashes, burning waves, flame claw cages, lava barriers, when he was in the Templar Order, many demon troops fled as soon as they saw his banner." ”
"Ah, there are so many tricks?" Ryujo exclaimed adoringly, "but why did he join the demons?"
Ryan preemptively said: "Don't go far, we must rush to the Hope Canyon as soon as possible, we must capture the Hope Canyon mouth station, and then return to other battlefields, if the demon army captures the city and uses it as a base to attack the surrounding villages and towns, it will be difficult for us to deal with them." ”
When Ryan and the others and the knights and mercenaries led by the commander of the Knights, Samson, came to the Hope Canyon ten miles away, the forward scout reported back: "General, the Fourth Expeditionary Force of the Demon Army has arrived at the Hope Canyon station. ”
Samson was angry and said, "Hey, we're late, it would be nice if we could catch up with the Fourth Expeditionary Force of the Demon Army to the mouth of the Hope Canyon, and now it may be a little difficult to capture the Hope Canyon Pass." ”
Jili comforted: "General Samson, now that the matter has come to this, it is useless to say that, the most important thing is to think of a way to take down the canyon pass, if the demon army continues to send troops, it will be even more impossible." ”
Seeing what Ryan was thinking, Samson asked, "Do you have any plans, Count Ryan?"
Ryan replied, "I haven't thought of any plans yet. ”
At this moment, a soldier hurriedly ran over and said, "General Yu, the Fourth Expeditionary Force of the Demon Army has left the city, and it seems that they want to increase their troops to the Snow Wolf Ice Field, because the direction they are advancing is towards the Snow Wolf Ice Field. ”
Puth asked questions: "Increasing troops to the Snow Wolf Ice Field, could it be that the battle situation there has caused the demon army to suffer heavy losses?"
At this time, another soldier came to report: "General Samson, the Fourth Expeditionary Force of the Demon Army has marched less than thirty miles to the southwest and has been attacked by a human legion of unknown origin. ”
"Huh?" Samson and Ryan and the others were in doubt.
"Newspaper---" Another soldier rushed into the camp tent and immediately reported, "General, it has been discovered that the unknown human legion is a temporary legion of local villages and towns, and the leader is a young man named Havin. ”
"Harvin?" asked Long Cheng, "What do you say, is it Harvin?"
