As night fell, the west bank was brightly lit, and the camp was preparing for tomorrow's river crossing.

When Chloe entered the house, she saw that Carey was solemn, and she couldn't help asking, "What's wrong, your face is so ugly?"

Carey handed over the letter in his hand and said, "According to reliable sources, there are 600,000 troops on the opposite side who will block our crossing of the river, and I'm afraid tomorrow's operation will not be so smooth." ”

After reading the letter, Chloe also said seriously: "We can slow down and cross the river again, the Church's army of one million has now entered the southwest of Muga, we just need to stabilize it, and there is good news that the Curtiz has broken the covenant with them." ”

This news also made Carey feel a lot better, but tomorrow's plan to cross the river cannot be postponed, and the church will definitely seize the territory after entering, and if he crosses the river slowly, he may not even be able to drink soup.

He then wrote to King Garris, sending their country's troops so that they would no longer have to confront the Curtis.

At the same time, Mekji led a million troops into the southwest of Muga, and in addition to ordinary soldiers, there were also a thousand mage legions of mages.

In one corner of the camp, several dragons and a flock of griffons were also there, all secretly cultivated by the Church, not just Hoto.

Along the way, Mekji found that many towns were deserted, and there was no food in the fields, which must have been abandoned for a while, and he did not understand why this was happening.

While he was stunned on horseback, his adjutant came over and asked, "My lord, what is our next task now?"

"Arrange for a part of the army to guard these towns and prevent them from being occupied by the enemy. Mekji gave the order.

"Understood. ”

Mekji was tasked with completely occupying Muga, but the specific route was not formulated, so he had to make his own decisions.

The population of Muga is mainly concentrated in the west, and the east is mostly deserted, with only the occasional town, most notably Motril and Albertin.

Thinking of this, Mekji immediately took out the map and looked at it, and then drew a line in the middle of the map of Muga, with the Banhad area controlled by Benguela on the left and the eastern part of Muga on the right.

Mekji couldn't help but laugh when he saw this line, and at the same time secretly said in his heart: As long as the team is sent to this line, then Muga will be divided into two, and the east will be completely occupied by us, and the Banhad area can be encircled.

Mekji then took command of the mission, and distributed the million troops on the line of defense that he had called a prison line.

Surin was also a fortified defensive position on the banks of the river during this time, and while writing a letter asking Felicia to bring the air force over, Banhard was about to face a siege on all sides, so the air force would play a huge role.

At the same time, however, he had received that the Church's army had established a line of defense, and Felicia's ability to survive was also a question.

At this time, Su Lin was sitting on the earthen wall on the bank of the river, watching the sunset on the horizon slowly set, and from time to time a flock of griffons flew around.

Seeing that there was not a single cloud in the sky, Su Lin knew that the weather would definitely be good tomorrow, and a big battle would await him.

In the middle of the night, columns of archers entered the trench in advance and set up an ambush, and bundles of arrows were sent to the earthen wall.

Tomorrow, the 100,000 archers will shoot the million arrows and deal a heavy blow to the Hotto soldiers who crossed the river.

The infantry phalanx, on the other hand, retreated a few miles, pretending to be fighting them on the shore.

The night before the Great War was destined to be a time when no one slept.

As the sun slowly rose, his eyes sparked on the earth again, and the air was filled with the smell of gunsmoke.

At this time, on the west shore, several kilometers were densely packed, and ships of various sizes were parked on the shore, and they boarded and set off just for an order.

After cloire put on his armor, he went to look for Carey, and when he saw that he had dark circles on his face, he knew that he hadn't slept all night.

Seeing that he was still frowning at this time, he couldn't help asking, "Big brother, what's wrong?"

"This morning I asked the griffons to probe the other side, and found that there were many trenches on the ground, and I don't know what they were for, and their main force was a few kilometers away, and it seemed that they wanted to fight us on the shore, but I always felt a little uneasy. Carey replied as he marked the map.

"Big brother, let me take the lead, and you can also find out. Chloe volunteered.

Hearing this, Carey agreed after a while, and he believed in his sister very much.

Then Chloe boarded the ship with his men in military uniform, fully armed, bows and arrows, and long swords.

Woooooooo

At this moment, a trumpet sounded, and everyone began to board the ship slowly, and then one by one, the sails of the ships spread and sailed to the opposite side.

Standing on the high ground behind him, Surin observed the situation on the other side with a telescope, and saw that the dense ships had sailed over, and a black shadow in the sky pounced again.

"Let the crossbow convoy prepare, and if the dragons and griffons dare to pounce, they will be brought down to me. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty. ”

Immediately, the herald came to the camp in the rear and announced the order.

Then a hundred two-wheeled ballistas were pushed out and divided into five columns, each with three men standing beside each of them.

After the block formation was placed, one person turned the winch to pull the string apart, and the other person set an angle diagonally into the air, and placed the one-meter-and-five-meter-long pure steel crossbow arrow on the bowstring.

After doing all this, the two of them stood aside, and the last man stood behind with a hammer, and he would not hesitate to fire the griffons and dragons whenever they were in range.

At this time, five dragons opened the way in front, followed by thousands of griffin knights, their purpose this time was to reconnoiter the situation on the ground, and at the same time give some blows to those Muga soldiers in the rear.

When they reached the sky, the first thing they saw was that there was no one on the ground, only the lonely earthen wall, and then they saw the large army gathered behind them.

"Rush down for me and show them how good we Hoto are. ”

One of the dragon knights at the front took the lead and then controlled the dragon to fly downward.

When they appeared more than two hundred meters above the ground, suddenly there was a sound of bells and bells from below, and then they saw a flash of white light.

Just when they were puzzled, they saw a huge crossbow arrow shooting at high speed from the diagonal front, dense and numerous.

"Rise fast. ”

But as soon as the words ended, the giant crossbow arrow shot over, and the crossbow arrow made of pure steel, under the high-speed impact, directly penetrated the body of a griffin, and smashed the griffin and the knight above it into the person next to him.

At this time, the griffons that rushed to the bottom were almost directly shot through by the crossbow arrows, and some of the knights on the backs of the griffins were also pierced by the crossbow arrows and fell to the ground.

And the five dragon knights were also not happy at the moment, watching the crossbow arrows hit the dragon's body and bounce away, making a clanging sound, they were also shocked.

At this time, a dragon knight looked sideways, and saw that the iron scales on the dragon's body had actually left scratches, and some scales were even peeled off, so he shouted: "Fly and get it, get rid of it"

Before he could finish speaking, a crossbow bolt flew over and shot him through.

At the same time, the bottom two dragons also had an accident, and the two wings of one dragon had been pierced by crossbow arrows, and they were slowly falling downward.

The other dragon had been shot in the abdomen by several crossbow arrows at this time, and the blood flowed and smashed straight to the ground.

At this time, Kairi, who was on the ship, saw that his griffin group and the dragon were not shot and fell from the sky, and he couldn't help but feel a tightness in his heart, these are Hoto's biggest reliance all along, but he didn't expect to be hit hard this time.

After a few rounds of crossbow shots, more than a thousand griffons and two dragons were defeated, and the rest fled in a hurry.

Seeing this, Su Lin couldn't help laughing, and from now on, I believe that they would not dare to be so presumptuous at a low altitude.

Then he sent the infantry phalanx forward, ready to strike a heavy blow at the Hoto soldiers who were about to land, and at the same time transported the catapults up to strike at the ships.

At this time, the crossbowmen who were lying in ambush behind the earthen wall, after seeing the heavenly threat leaving, ran out of the trench one after another, took their bows and arrows and lay down on the earthen wall.

On these kilometers of defense, 100,000 crossbowmen lay on their stomachs, and after they finished shooting, the infantry behind them would come up to replace them.

Claude was at the front with a few hundred men in a boat, leaving the other boats far behind.

At this moment, she was standing on the deck with a long sword and a shield, and his eyes were full of coldness as she looked at the imminent landing.

"Your Royal Highness, I feel that something is wrong on the other side, will we fall for the trick?" someone asked first.

"Rest assured, if they have an ambush and make a move on us, the ships behind will be vigilant, believing that they will not make such a mistake, their purpose is those big forces, not our boat, so now we are the safest. ”

Soon after, the 100 of them successfully landed ashore, and after crossing the sandy beach more than 100 meters wide, they came to the bottom of the earthen wall more than three meters high.

Looking at this unattainable earthen wall, Claure knew that with only their current 100 people, it was almost impossible to break through this wall, so they could only wait for the arrival of the follow-up troops.

When Carey stood on the deck and watched the road become another difficult task for them to overcome, the resentment towards Surin went up again, but there was no such earthen wall before, and it was built after he came, it must have been his idea.
