Late at night.

Leon and Lehman led more than 200 people to the direction of White Deer Castle.

The composition of more than two hundred people is sixty lion knights, one hundred and fifty knightly servants, and ten great swordsmen of Metenheim.

All are truly elite.

They did not go directly to the city of White Deer Castle, but stopped on a relatively gentle hillside between White Deer Fort and Mai Xiangling.

After that, there will be no flat road.

In fact, Leon and Lehman first went to the vicinity of White Deer Castle to see it.

The area around Bailu Fort is densely packed with troops, and the surrounding area is full of mountains, and the terrain is really not suitable for cavalry.

Coupled with the fact that he only had more than 200 men in his hands, Leon decided to let Lehman's Lion Knights intercept the enemy's scouts or small forces in this place.

Nearby is a hilly meadow with a relatively small slope, which is relatively spacious and there are no woods around.

More than two hundred people were standing on the top of a gentle slope, and if an enemy appeared, they could be seen at a glance.

In fact, it was still thirty miles from White Deer Fort - that is, they were now about thirty miles from the enemy's flank.

On the way here, they also encountered a few spies from the Bacchus Empire, probably sent by the Bacchus Empire to check on the situation, but they were all quickly killed by the lion knights.

Presumably, the people of the Bacchus Empire thought that this area belonged to mountain warfare, and most of the people sent out did not ride horses.

But Eric and John had already paved the road near McChander, so none of the spies who walked on two legs had escaped after being spotted by the Lion Knights.

"Sir Lehman, this place is best suited for cavalry play. Your men are here to clear out the scouts, and you have to make sure that the Bacchus Empire can't find out the truth of the McCean, and you have to protect our way out. ”

"Understood. But, Lord Leon, your plan is risky......"

It's really risky.

Leon planned to have someone pretend to be Rainier, go to the Chinese army camp of the Bacchus army to ask for credit, and then find an opportunity to hijack a big man to delay a little longer.

For the sake of this humble plan, he took the dead face that was still unconscious.

As for deliberately finding the gentle slope of this meadow, on the one hand, it is so that if the plan fails, it will be convenient for the lion riders to escort him to escape......

On the other hand, it is necessary to use this spacious flat land so that the lion knights can take out all the scouts, so that the situation of McXiangling will not be discovered by the enemy and lead to a scam and goof.

In Leon's opinion, the upper echelons of the Bacchus Empire should have known about the existence of Rainier—that dead face must have reciprocated the information to the Bacchus Empire.

After all, he said to Rainier, "You will be the governor of the empire".

To be able to give such a temptation, even if it is to write a blank check, at least it must be allowed by the upper echelons of the Bacchus Empire.

However, what Rainier looks like, it is estimated that most of the high-ranking members of the Bacchus Empire do not know - there are no photos and videos in this era.

Then, find a warrior, bring a few knights and elites dressed up, and bring a group of miscellaneous troops who have never shown their faces in front of the Bacchus Empire - such as the Great Swordsmen, this is very in line with the situation of Rainier in the minds of the high-ranking leaders of the Bacchus Empire.

It should be reasonable for such an elite team to take that dead face and pretend to be Rainier near the commander of the Chinese army of the Bacchus Empire on the pretext of 'successfully capturing El-Deag'.

Then approaching the leader of the Bacchus Empire, suddenly attacking, and coercing one or two high-ranking hostages, there is still a good chance.

At least, in Sir Lehman's opinion, there was a slight chance of success in the plan, but it was dangerous...... This is not only a test of martial arts, but also eloquence and acting skills.

"What brother wants to be a hero? Now is a great opportunity to make a big difference – I promise it's not too difficult and not too dangerous! ”

Leon looked around at the lion knights, his eyes sweeping over Lehman.

The cans looked left and right, but no one responded......

The lion knights are not stupid, how can it not be difficult to enter the army of the enemy country alone to cheat......

"Lord Leon, there are quite a few people in the Bacchus Empire who know me, so don't beat my idea, you better do it yourself - you have the best skills, and besides, my people are not good at fraud......"

Lehman was a little hairy and hurriedly made a statement.

"How can this be a scam...... This is a great cause that will be passed down through the ages! Forget it, I'll go...... Ten of the best brothers will be my 'Rainier' subordinates! ”

Leon wasn't going to pretend to be Rainier himself, he wanted to pretend to be an inconspicuous servant - it would be safe and easy to get by. Moreover, it is reasonable to have Hu Cong 'supporting' that dead-faced spy to follow 'Rainier'.

Rainier is a nobleman, and there should always be a few followers.

But looking at the reaction of this group of iron cans, Leon still had to go on his own.

There are quite a few people who are willing to pretend to be subordinates, and there are still many brave people among the lion knights under Lehman, but they generally have little confidence in their ability to fool......

The lion knights often competed in martial arts, and they knew who was the best, and soon ten people stood up.

"Alright, I'm going to do the kidnapping work. Lehman, remember to keep the road......"

"Lord Leon, please rest assured. Good luck! ”

Lehman was still somewhat admired, and he felt that Leon's behavior of sacrificing his life and forgetting his life to be loyal to the country could be used as an example for knights.

But in fact, Leon is not very comfortable with the lion knight's temperament. He took ten knights out of Rayman's attitude towards the lion knights - so as to ensure that Rayman would defend his back road.

…………

Early morning.

Camp of the Bacchus Imperial Army.

On top of the huge military tent, a black, purple, and gold eagle flag was erected.

"Report! Your Excellency the Governor, there is a procession of white flags coming outside...... The leader calls himself Rainier, and says he is an ally from Ellerdegg, and wants to see you! ”

"Rainier?"

Governor Justus stood up: "Has the flame of Elder Deggar been extinguished?" ”

"I can't see the beacon over there, Lord Governor."

"Looks like they've got it...... Let them in. ”

A short time later, a knight was ushered into the camp of the governor of Justus, followed by two attendants driving an unconscious bard.

This is Leon and the two lion knights - the Metenheim are too stout and rude in their manners, and they are not submissive at first glance, and they are easy to goof.

So he had to find a loan from the Lion Knights, and most of the lord's own subordinates were uneducated.

The Great Swordsmen and a few other 'servants' waited outside the camp, watched by the enemy.

There were quite a few Imperial crossbowmen near Governor Justus's tent, and Leon also saw a few Radiant Cross Knights, all of whom were looking at them coldly.

Almost all of the Radiant Cross Knights looked at each other with disdain, clearly showing no affection for a traitor like Rainier.

"Your Excellency the Governor, the people have been brought."

A knight stood in front of the tent to give a report.

Governor Justus stepped out of his tent, looked at the dead-faced bard being carried, and greeted him.

Seeing that he was unconscious with his head down, he turned his head to look at Li Ang, with some doubts in his eyes.

"What's going on?"

"You must be Governor Justus, right? In Lower Rainier. He was wounded when he attacked with me, and he has been like this ever since...... I had to bring him over first. ”

Leon saw that Governor Justus seemed to be looking at the dead man's face and explained.

The two Radiant Cross Knights behind him seemed to be muttering, "These vipers...... ...... as soon as you get hurt"

The voice was low, but Li Ang was already cautiously observing and heard a little.

"Lord Rainier, you should stop reinforcements in Al-Deig now! What are you doing here? ”

Governor Justes frowned, and his attitude did not seem very polite.

However, probably because he saw the secret spy, he didn't seem to suspect Leon's identity.

It's good that you don't have any doubts.

If Rainier did capture the Wheat Collar - that is, Elledegg, then he must do as much as possible to create the illusion that nothing had happened in Fort White Hart, and if reinforcements came, he would have to trick them out.

After all, if he occupies the Mai Xiang Territory, the other nobles of the kingdom will not find out that he is treasonous.

In fact, even if Rainier was discovered by others during the attack, at most it was believed that it was due to a territorial dispute between him and Leon......

"Your Excellency the Governor, I have done what I had to do! I even left all of my men behind in Al Dega. Naturally, they will pretend that everything is normal - rest assured, even if reinforcements from the kingdom come, they will be sent away by my men. ”
