Chapter Thirty-Eight: The First Battle of Ebon

In order not to irritate Dilumudo to think of his true self, Li Chenglong arranged for him to lead the Xincheng City Army, which was composed of Frank soldiers who lacked the strength of experts, and was responsible for the defense of Brown City and the logistics supply of the army. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Jatherine is in charge of housekeeping as a deputy with the shield maids and the deep-diving warriors guarding the city lord's mansion.

Cold Spider, who did not go with the army, stayed behind as the last guard force of the city, and was responsible for monitoring Dilumudo and Jessarin by the way.

Compared with the previous army, some soldiers with a good foundation have completed professional advancement in the previous training, resulting in an increase in the proportion of combat personnel above the expert level, and a decrease in the total number of soldiers.

On a normal summer morning, an army of more than seven thousand left Brown City. Li Chenglong wore a practice uniform made of alloy that he invented that could conduct qi, and carried a treasure knife of the same material on his back, flying at the front of the team.

This treasure knife is a gorgeous weapon made by Li Chenglong for himself in the style of the Mongolian scimitar. The new alloy body is engraved with the "Hagal" rune, and the scabbard is inlaid with colorful gemstones.

Under the effect of the alchemy array and the Philosopher's Stone mixed in the gem group, the scabbard can absorb the corresponding elements in the scabbard and gems to automatically repair and maintain the knife inside, so that Li Chenglong does not need to polish the knife every day, and can also have a weapon in the best condition at any time.

When he named it, he suddenly thought that Zhu Shou had mentioned Bi Xuan, so he named the knife Jing Zhongyue when he had a bad taste, thinking that if he could use this knife to hack Bi Xuan to death, it would be very interesting.

Although the weather is hot in summer, the parasols composed of hundreds of Shattuck birds overhead and the thermal blankets composed of aristocratic knights led by Adelaide under their feet are still good to protect themselves from the heat.

Rossifer's raiders, in addition to thirty carefully selected raiders, were organized into groups of sentinels to take turns scouting around the army. With this information, the experienced Rosifu helped Lee Seung-ryong to lead his army to the intended goal.

Behind the cavalry, the infantry led by several grandmaster-level warriors marched in an orderly manner. Although the last Frank professional pirates were a little reluctant to take part in the war deep into the interior, the horror of the Greggars marching behind them as they ate made the rebellious pirates behave like conscripted farmers.

To be on the safe side, Lee Seung-ryong did not risk going to Avalon City to pick up leftovers, but instead targeted the Mona brothers, who disobeyed Finn's rule. In the name of pursuing Dilumudo, they are building up troops in Droplik City.

King Arthur's invasion caused the Fiona Warriors to recall all of their elite stationed outside, which led to the surrender of most of the villages that stood in the way of the army's advance, and the few resistors only allowed the Alchemists of Is, who accompanied the army, to expand their stocks.

The first walled town that the army encountered was the town of Xins, located on the east bank of the Barlow River. Although the town had a wall several meters high, thousands of armored soldiers and a large group of giants prompted the capitulation faction to sneak up and kill the few Fiona diehards, and surrendered voluntarily with all the stockpiles.

After a night of repairs, Fred was left behind to lead a small number of Frankish royal guards to gather the army, sweep away all resistance forces south of the town of Cynce-Brown, and protect the agricultural production in the area.

Although Li Chenglong was happy to enjoy the maidens offered by the townspeople, it was a pity that the appearance of the girls in the town was far from the four maids. The Lee member of the Appearance Guild eventually refused to exercise this right, and spent a long night thinking about why not a single maid had been touched before.

In order to prevent the defeat of the Mona brothers, the remnants will turn to Finn. The Ebonn Army, which had scavenged large quantities of food and wagons from the town of Xins, turned to scattered encroachment, carrying out a village-by-village sweep along the border line between the areas under the actual control of the Finn and Mona brothers.

Under the command of the sane Is, the Shahtak birds and the Gulge giants were able to prey on the area without restrictions.

The raiders and pirates were also authorized to loot without limits, and these skilled bandits bit off a chunk of fat from the Fiona Warriors.

The villages that did not resist were treated better, and they only needed to hand over most of the young and strong, and bring their own drinks and food with the army. The villages and tribes that resisted were all implemented by the bandits who had been waiting for such a long time to implement the three-light policy.

The alchemists of Is, who accompanied the army, would set up and preside over the refining of the land in such villages, and drain the oil and water of these poor people after their deaths.

The lucky ones who were lucky enough to hide and didn't die also turned into the Stone of the Sage with the activation of the country's training formation.

Since there are only two situations that happen, full living and all dead, the people of the Emerald Isle only think that those villages have made a noble consciousness that they would rather be broken than destroyed, and have dedicated themselves to the Fiona Warriors.

Lee's scorched-earth tactics put enormous economic pressure on the Mona brothers, reducing the number of commercial taxes and the number of villages to pay conservation taxes. A large number of Celtic children and olds who originally lived in villages and forests poured into the city of Droplik, causing food prices to skyrocket and sanitation conditions to deteriorate.

While Lee was gathering his forces outside the town of Balina and waiting to attack the town, a plague was circulating in Droplik City.

In order to avoid further losses, the Mona brothers led more than 40,000 people with more than 8,000 Fiona warriors as the core, mixed with people with lofty ideals who did not want to die in the city, to support Balina Town.

As soon as the Mona brothers' army left the city, the time, destination, and supplies of their troops were sold to Lee Seung-ryong at a high price by the thieves' union. When the contact person left, he also left a business advertisement with door-to-door service, service service, cash transaction, and no credit.

Lee Seung-ryong, who had no intention of fighting a fierce battle in front of the tall walls of Droplet Rick, used a gemstone timepiece to launch a super-large-scale alchemy to turn the stone walls of Balina into a row of giant golems. The sudden change caught the soldiers defending the city on and behind the walls by surprise, and a large number of soldiers died from falling or trampling by others.

The human soldiers on both sides saw this as a miracle, and the morale-boosted Ibonn howled and charged, completely crushing the debilitated defenders of Balina who lacked expert veterans. After five days of confrontation, it only took one morning for Li Chenglong to sit in the mayor's mansion and drink mead.

In order to win the upcoming battle, Li Chenglong arranged for Charles to leave the army with the Frank noble swordsman to escort the alchemists of Isis to complete a crucial task.

Li Chenglong himself was not idle, leaving early and returning late for several days in a row, while directing Xiugus to arrange the battlefield, while using the Philosopher's Stone and the collected materials to transform the huge stone golem. The whole town of Ballina looked like a large barracks before the arrival of Mona's army, and all of the townspeople were held as prisoners of war, except for a few gifted children and good-looking women who had left the town with the return logistical supply team.

On the second day of the fall of Balina, there were prison tyrants in the concentration camps, although there was plenty of food but there were still people who could not eat, rape and murder were one after another, and the evil in human nature was brought into full play at this time.
