It took Drake less than fourteen days to get eight allies along, and if it weren't for Ilea's quick arrival, Drake could have gotten more help.

But just the eight lords plus Drake himself, united, can make up nearly 10,000 troops.

Seeing that there were more and more troops available at hand, this famous commander of the Golden Valley couldn't help but have a bold idea in his heart.

He spread out his map and looked at the Golden Spike Avenue in front of the Berry Castle, and followed it all the way to the west, about a day's journey, where there was a hill.

Drake touched his chin, he had been fortifying the Berry Castle since he became the head of the Marsun family, so that this castle that was not famous in the first place has now become a famous fortified city in the Golden Valley.

But after the fierce battles with the dwarves, and the month-long siege of Lirania and his wife not long ago, the Berry Castle is not as strong as it used to be.

It's just that Drake doesn't have time to repair it now, and this time the enemy is from the West, and Drake has also heard that the Shuangxiu Sect has robbed those Wing Clan dragons.

Although it is said that Ilea did not bring a dragon with her when she went out this time, if the Chosen Queen has been unable to attack the Berry Fort for a long time, it may not be long before everyone in the Berry Fort will face the white dragon.

The Frederickson family at Turquoise Fort is a lesson in point, and Drake doesn't want to follow in their footsteps.

So he was going to surprise Ilea.

No one would have thought that he would not defend the fortified city of Berry Castle, but choose to take the initiative.

Moreover, Ilea and her army of the West are far less familiar with this land than him, and Drake, as a famous general, will not let go of such an advantage.

Therefore, he led the army to the east side of the Golden Harvest Avenue before Ilea arrived, completed an ambush in that hill, and waited quietly for the prey to come to the door.

And just half a day later, the spies sent by Drake saw the rabbit flag of the Arias family.

This unit changed the general impression of the soldiers of the West, in the past their equipment looked tattered, and the formation was very loose and undisciplined.

However, the equipment of this army is obviously much better, especially the guards of the Arias family, they are basically dressed in chain mail, iron helmets, shields, and even iron gauntlets, and have a high armor rate, which is difficult to deal with at first glance.

The formation is not neat, but judging from the overall level of marching on the continent of Brattis at the moment, it can be regarded as disciplined.

The armies led by the lords, under the double constraints of Ilea and the Shuangxiu Sect, did not run around and ransacked nearby villages or towns.

However, Drake's face was ecstatic after hearing the spies' report.

I don't know if it's because of her confidence, Ilea didn't put her descendants in the center of the team like a general commander, and let those militias and mercenaries be on the periphery.

This means that once the sneak attack is successful and the elite warriors of the Arias family on the periphery are defeated, the rest of the people are likely to flee without a fight.

In addition, Ilea herself was also in the front, and the spies saw her walking at the front of the army on a tall horse.

If you can take her down in one fell swoop, then this battle will be won.

Drake didn't hesitate any longer, the opportunity on the battlefield was always fleeting.

A lot of time had passed since the spies were gone, and Drake drew his sword and said to his subordinates behind him.

"Our enemies have appeared, it's time to give those hillbillies of the West a taste of what we're all good at!

"Capture that arrogant woman who claims to be the Chosen King, and when the time comes, whether it's Allister, Claudio, or Conley, will be happy to pay a large sum of money for her."

Drake's words were echoed by everyone, and then he looked at his grandson, "Joseph, remember what I said, you rushed to the front. ”

The young man named Joseph turned pale at this moment, but after listening to Drake's words, he nodded and mounted his warhorse.

He suppressed the fear in his heart, took the lead, crossed the hills in front of him, and immediately saw the enemy army not far away, on the Golden Harvest Avenue.

But the strange thing is that the enemy army did not go any further, but just stopped there, as if waiting for someone.

This made Joseph feel bad again, but he knew that it was too late to turn back, and his grandfather Drake would not listen to his persuasion, but would only think that this was a sign of his cowardice, so Joseph could only continue to rush forward.

Then he saw the spearmen in front of him suddenly move to the sides, revealing rows of black holes in the iron pipes behind him.

Joseph's hunch was right, Miss Rabbit was indeed waiting for them to show up.

The spies who thought they were well hidden were nowhere to hide under the telescope, and Drake and his army, who were still thinking about how to surprise the girl in the valley, were already under the surveillance of drones.

It was an expected sneak attack.

Ilea prepared the artillerymen early, and as soon as Drake's troops appeared, fifty Italian guns opened fire.

A huge roar resounded through the Golden Harvest Avenue in an instant, accompanied by the rising white smoke, like a grand welcome ceremony.

Welcome the queen and her new era, and the sacrifice is Drake and his ten thousand warriors.

The nobles of the Golden Valley Land, who had never seen the power of black powder, were directly stupefied by this loud noise, and in their eyes, this loud noise was tantamount to the wrath of the gods.

Referring to what had happened before, they were all worried about whether Saturday would strike again to help his followers repel the strong enemy.

But the really terrifying thing actually happened after the loud bang, only to see dozens of black iron balls flying into the crowd at an extremely terrifying speed.

As long as the person hit by it, even if it is just a light rubbing, he will immediately be seriously injured, or even killed.

Witnessing this scene, Joseph almost had his heart and gall shattered, because he rushed relatively forward, but he did not become the target of the cannon, and luckily saved his life.

However, the courage he had managed to accumulate had already been exhausted in this round of bombardment.

He grabbed the reins of his horse and tried to turn around and run for his life, but he happened to bump into his grandfather, Drake.

The latter liked to lead in battle, and he followed Joseph with a group of men, who were not hurt much, but a chill ran in Drake's heart.

He has been fighting horses all his life and has rich combat experience, so it can be said that he has encountered any kind of enemy, but he has never heard of this meeting today.
