Skull flags flutter in the sky.

In the war of the gods, most of the many armies that participated in the war were very successful, especially in the middle and late stages, and some armies even had a record of beheading the gods, in this case, the more distinctive the army, the more they wanted to be able to reflect their own completely different style. As a result, the military flag, military song, military uniform, etc. have undergone great changes.

As a result, squadrons and thousand-man squadrons with even smaller formations at the brigade level began to display their own distinct military flags.

Among the many military flags, there are two military flags, except for the difference in the background color, the others are almost exactly the same - the skeleton flag.

The two skull flags have a solid black background on one side and a black-edged blue background on the other.

These two skull banners symbolize the two supreme powers of the Great War of the Gods.

-- "The War of the Gods: The Theory of the Legion" Chapter 116 Life and Death Speed Magic Calendar 6 In the middle of January of the 6th year, a mighty life and death speed race was staged on the northeast side of the Flower Language Plain.

Chi Aotian's expeditionary army roared past at the front, and most of the knights were riding in pairs, and when one horse was tired, he immediately changed to another horse and galloped wildly. After the 20,000-strong army, a red avenue 200 meters wide appeared on the green steppe - the iron hooves of 100,000 war horses trampled all the bleak grass along the way.

The Norton Legion followed closely behind, and at the beginning, all the soldiers of the Third Legion were able to follow, and by the afternoon the three Bearmen of the Thousand Men began to appear as soldiers of the Bears, and General Norton turned a blind eye, and by seven o'clock in the evening, all but a few of the Bears were left behind. The orc troops also began to form a long battle line, and at this rate, it would not take until midnight for half of the orc troops to be left.

The remaining 7,000 commanders wondered what the Norton Commander was going to do? Aren't they afraid that the enemy will suddenly turn around and set up an ambush to eat themselves? Unfortunately, they can't speak now, where can they still ask questions.

At this moment, there was a faint rumbling sound between heaven and earth...... Ahh

After a long battle, any thousand-man commander can hear that this is the sound of the horse's hooves of a large-scale human knight joint charge!

"Enemy ...... Enemy...... Attack ......" the commander of the thousand people who pressed the formation reluctantly shouted, and the human infantry around him turned pale with fright.

"Nonsense!" Norton didn't know when he appeared in front of the human thousand-man leader: "Sneak attack in the middle of the night, don't the enemy tie the horse's hooves? Is that still a sneak attack? This is the knight of the sweat and blood mercenary group." Next time you call the police like this without thinking, you have to be careful of your head!" The always gentle and elegant regiment commander actually said such a thing, which shows the urgency of the situation.

Sure enough, not long after, more than 4,000 sweat and blood iron cavalry brigade chased up from behind, in order to prepare for this battle, the iron hand barricade duke also made a bloody investment, 4,000 knights equipped with an extra 2,000 horses, from the time they got the information, they didn't even eat a bite of food along the way, and they chased forward quickly.

Han Han harnessed the dragon at the moment when the night fell, and finally saw the smoke rising from the camp of the commander Monton, the dragon knight did not have time to take into account the ban of the army, and directly commanded the dragon to fall in the middle of the camp, Monton and other supreme commanders thought that they had encountered a late-night enemy attack, and only to find out that it was the fire dragon knight when they came out of the big tent.

When Han Han relayed Norton's judgment, everyone, including Monton, had a look of disbelief on their faces, especially the generals from the Holy See, how could this be possible, they were too familiar with the Sicilian River, every summer and after January, the Sicilian River is the nightmare of the Holy See, which year will not swallow up hundreds or thousands of lives? This is still an ordinary year without floods, catching up with floods, killing tens of thousands of people and hundreds of thousands of cattle is the most common thing. Anyone standing in front of the Sicilian River will lament the insignificance of human power. Turning the Sicilian River into ice? It's a big joke, no matter how cold the winter is, the Sicilian River never freezes. How is it possible for humans to ......

Mengton pondered for less than a minute amid the rambling rebuttals of many officers, and resolutely gave the order: Except for the five bear-man thousand-man detachments that came later, all the other troops pursued them overnight with only weapons and three days' worth of dry rations! The last 1,000-strong team to reach its goal and the 1,000-strong team with a fall behind rate of more than 30 percent will have their numbers revoked, and all officers below the rank of 1,000 officers will be dismissed from their posts on the spot.

After the battle with the Northern Federation Legions, especially when the Norton Legion arrived from the northwest for reinforcements in only 35 days, Monton already vaguely felt that there was a gap between the Eastern Legions and the Western Legions. Previously, the fundamental reason why the Eastern Legion had achieved brilliant results was because the mercenary empire's combat power could not be compared with Amy's empire. Chi Aotian took a partial division of the Black Dragon Knights to beat the entire Eastern Joint Theater to the point that he couldn't even find the north, but the Western Theater was directly competing with the four ace knights of the empire and the small mercenary group. In front of opponents of the same level, the difference between the two is immediately visible.

In this case, Monton had to trust this unfamiliar but well-known colleague.

Moreover, if with an army of 60,000 on the unobstructed Huayu Plain, Chi Aotian's vast majority of the coalition composed of peasant armies still escaped smoothly, then it is estimated that he, the commander who has just been promoted, will be immediately beaten back to his original form. Monton would never allow such a thing to happen.

Taking a step back, even if Chi Aotian had the intention to eat himself in one bite in a high-speed movement, but in front of him were the direct troops of Norton and the Iron Hand Grand Duke of the River, Chi Aotian really had such an iron mouth and steel teeth? As long as either of the two troops in front of him supported for a day, the remaining 50,000 troops would outflank him, and 50,000 would fight 20,000, there was no reason why he couldn't win.

Early the next morning, the Monton army had already seen the magnificent red clay avenue on the prairie!

On the side of the Red Clay Avenue, there were more than 20 warriors, and behind the warriors, dozens of war horses fell to the ground spitting blood, and when they saw a large army, they hurriedly ran over.

They are the mercenaries of the sweat and blood iron horse, and they were borrowed by Norton in the second half of the night yesterday to ask them to return the same way to urge the commander's troops to speed up their actions, according to the joint judgment of the one-armed general and the iron hand of the Grand Duke of the Iron Hand, if nothing else, Chi Aotian is very likely to be able to go to this town. Moreover, the enemy has already exhausted hundreds of war horses, and it can be judged that the enemy will also be at the end of the crossbow.

Twisting his waist? Monton was a little confused.

Immediately next to it, the general of the Holy See added: Twisted waist is also known as ox waist, is the name of a small town, the origin of this name, because the mighty Sicilian River is less than 20 miles long here but suddenly turned three times in a row, just like an old lady twisted Yangge and sprained her waist, and a bit like the waist of a cow holding urine, so the indigenous people gave this place such a name. Although the river is a little wider, the water slows down suddenly, and there are many crossings. If it's really like Captain Norton's judgment to cast an ice forbidden spell, the slow water here is really the best option.

Oh, by the way, there is indeed such a place on the military map, but it seems to be transliterated on the map of Fanos -- "NEWYORK", translated into the Farnos text as "New York", right? Monton scolded in a low voice: "This name is really ugly for his grandmother, who is so tasteless to come up with such a name? Garbage, after this battle, I set fire to this broken place." ”

According to the prediction of the Grand Duke of the Iron Hand, the Chi Aotian army will arrive at Niu Yi early tomorrow morning or noon. Once he and Norton reach the waist, they will attack frantically at all costs, delaying the speed of Chi Aotian's crossing of the river as much as possible, if ...... Before they arrived, Chi Aotian had already crossed the river, so ...... He will send his men to inform the commander of Monton...... Stop moving forward.

Yes, if Chi Aotian crosses the river, the form will be completely reversed, Chi Aotian will definitely not be as benevolent and righteous as Song Xianggong, he will definitely seize every opportunity to take advantage of the opportunity of the coalition army to cross the river and eat it all in one bite. In that case, the end of the Holy See is just around the corner.

"Pass my orders!" Mondon's face at this time was no better than that of a desperate gambler: "Chase, chase, chase, chase, everyone, except weapons, give up all useless defensive equipment, regardless of race, regardless of troops, and follow down this red clay avenue." The first 300 warriors of each race, the first to catch up with the enemy, regardless of their origins or combat exploits, will be upgraded by one level on the spot, with 30 bonus coins. All the 300 cowards of all races, who arrived at the end of the battlefield, regardless of their rank or exploits, were dismissed on the spot. Chase, chase!"

As soon as this order was issued, the entire Phanos coalition army was injected with stimulants and rushed away on the plain of flowers like crazy.

At noon on the fifteenth day of the first month of the sixth summer of the Magic Calendar, Monton, the Flower of Phanos, received another report from the flying general Norton: "The army of Chi Aotian has approached the Sicilian River and is speeding along the riverbank. During this period, in order to block the pursuers, Chi Aotian attacked the coalition forces with the Vulture Knights twice in a row, thanks to the iron hand blocking the river and the extraordinary combat power of the cold cold, plus the sweat and blood iron cavalry mercenary group also had a few phantom beast knights, and they did not fall behind in the air battle. Again, General Monton is asked to advance as soon as possible, no matter what. ”

In the afternoon of the same day, Monton sent a hundred men to take in the soldiers who had fallen behind in the Norton Legion along the way.

At 19:30 in the evening of the same day, the Monton Regiment had its first meal and repair in 24 hours, and in half an hour, some of the soldiers who were left in a coma due to fatigue were left behind, and the rest set off on the whole line, at this time, there were less than 40,000 men left in the Monton Regiment.

At 11 a.m. on the 16th day of January in the sixth year of the Magic Calendar, the latest battle report was delivered to Monton -- great news! At 4 o'clock this morning, the 11,000 troops of the Norton Legion and the Sweaty Mercenary Regiment finally caught up with Chi Aotian's Legion and fought a bloody battle in the middle of the night! Nearly 4,000 allied soldiers were killed in battle, inflicting heavy losses on Chi Aotian's expeditionary force, and the executioner's legion had to hide in a dense forest on the south bank of the Great River and build fortifications relying on the dense forest. And it's only 15 miles away from the sirloin!

From 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. on January 16 in the summer, three updated battle reports were sent in a row (this was a requirement of the Phanos War Base Camp, so after the soldiers arrived at a certain place, they had to submit a briefing to their immediate superiors in one hour, and detailed information in three hours): The first briefing: In the bloody battle in the early morning, about 3,500 soldiers were killed in the Chi Aotian Legion, most of whom were recruited from the Holy See; The enemy is cutting down trees in the dense forest, possibly for pontoon bridges or rafts, and the second briefing: It has been confirmed that most of the trees along the Sicilian River are shrubs, and it is impossible to build pontoon bridges or make rafts. Now, the Chi Aotian Legion is digging in place. The sweat and blood mercenary group transferred to the local county chronicle, where the Sicilian River is 6 meters deep, the water flow is turbulent, and the Sicilian River has not frozen over the years. The Norton Legion, the orcs and other thousand-strong troops arrived one after another, and they had already occupied all the dense forests in the upper and lower reaches of the river, where the enemy was located. The Phantom Beast Knights of the Sweat and Blood Mercenary Regiment have been patrolling the river, and the enemy has not crossed the river.

The third detailed report (summary): The sweat and blood mercenary group sent people to investigate the upstream and downstream water conditions, and many people were washed away by the river, confirming that the river could not be crossed. During this period, Chi Aotian personally led 2,000 troops to attack downstream along the riverbank, and the casualties of the Norton Legion and the Sweat and Blood Mercenary Group have reached 60%. The village chief of Niuwaist sent people to collect ferries along the riverbank, and encountered the Vulture Knights, a small mercenary group who also collected ferries, and finally had to set fire to all the ferries. Knowing that the Executioner Legion had been blocked here, some of the villagers came to help dig a trench to trap the enemy.

At seven o'clock in the morning on the 17th day of the first month of the Magic Calendar, the main force of the Western Emperor's coalition army finally converged with the outpost troops, and in front of the coalition army, a vast river appeared and disappeared in the lush dense forest, ups and downs, and the turbulent river water continued to surge and lap the riverbank. Above a dense forest up to 200 meters wide, the black dragon banner and the winged rattlesnake banner fluttered. In the woods, trees were falling and then dragged to the outermost part of the trees, and all the canopies were rushing out, and in the woods there were neighing horses, and in the dense foliage, even soldiers could be seen pointing outward with bows and arrows.

"Norton commanded his troops to dig up the ground, and the Grand Duke of Iron Hand sent troops to collect the stragglers along the original road; The clerk recorded the military exploits, and His Highness Shuda went to Ulu City with a dragon to bring two dragon knights of the water system to join the battle, and at the same time, asked His Majesty the Pope to send all the grain and grass to this place. Commander Monton issued four orders in an orderly manner, and finally muttered for a moment: "Please ask His Highness Xiuda and the two dragon knights to return here in two days, and we will fight the enemy according to the situation!"
