Chapter 134: Canyon County Encounter

After retreating to the foot of the mountain, Richard immediately dispatched the Beast Cavalry to inform Bishop Graham of the appearance of the Death Mists to Bishop Grim of the Dawn Church in County Brena.

Hearing the news of the appearance of the Death Mist, Graham was taken aback and asked, "Is the news confirmed?" ”

"My lord, Baron Richard, is a very knowledgeable and powerful magician, and what he has confirmed must be accurate."

The Beast Cavalry's eyes widened, and it was clear that Gram's suspicion had upset him a little.

Graham immediately asked the church priest to pass the news to the provincial bishop Dun Lekin, and he himself went to the vicinity of the camp where the fog of death appeared.

Seeing that the vast fog of death was still expanding, Gramm's face became very gloomy.

"The fog is still expanding, if the death fog is allowed to expand unlimitedly, the power that infiltrates the necromantic realm will become stronger and stronger, and if the powerful undead are attracted over, a plane war may break out."

"Is there any way to stop the Death Mists from expanding?"

"The best thing to do is to close the dimensional passage, but this requires us to enter the necromantic realm to set up a magic circle that closes the passage."

As soon as he heard Gramm's method, Richard immediately frowned and said, "This matter can't be solved by relying on us little shrimps, I'm afraid it will take the high-level of the church to come forward." ”

The necromantic realm is very oppressive to the living, and without the protection of a powerful legendary priest, it is almost impossible for the living to enter the necromantic realm.

Upon entering the Necronomicon Realm, powerful undead smell the temperature of the living, like a shark seeing blood, and bone dragons, lichs, death knights, and even undead lords may appear.

Setting up a magic array to block the two realms is not an easy thing to accomplish.

Richard still had military affairs, and since the Death Mists were managed, he immediately decided to take the path into Canyon County.

It is difficult to transport grain and grass on mountain paths, and it is difficult for large armies to walk on mountain paths if you are an ordinary army.

But Richard had the Starlight Vial, which replenished the military rations from County Brynner, saving a great deal of transport power. In order to alleviate logistical pressure, this time Richard did not take the Breena Serfs with him.

The soldiers who followed him through the mountain path into Canyon County had a total of four infantry squadrons and two cavalry squadrons, adding up to more than 1,700 men. The reason why there were more than 1,700 people in the six squadrons was because the main squadron led by Richard annexed several squadron auxiliaries. Several infantry squadrons doubled in size and looked a little bloated.

After the main force of the rebel army suffered losses, it has been steadily fighting in recent times and besieging the main force of the rebel army in the city of victory.

Victory City is the county seat of Canyon County.

The city is located at the southern entrance to the Dragon's Canyon, where Marshal Brenner commanded the soldiers of the Kingdom of Grant and broke the orcs.

The battle was a glorious battle for Marshal Breenner.

In this war, the Orc Kingdom suffered heavy losses, killing four legends in one battle and losing more than 800,000 square kilometers of land.

The territory of the Kingdom of Grant almost doubled, and relying on this victory in the war, the three northern provinces were established, the Duke of Jonathan, the Duke of Edward, and the Duke of Fox.

Directly pushed the territory area to the north by several hundred kilometers.

Since then, Nolan has become the hinterland of the kingdom of Grant, and has not been invaded by orcs for more than a hundred years.

Before this invasion war, the provinces of Sodamia and Gabria were the front lines against the orcs.

Orc armies often broke through the defenses of the two provinces, and on a few occasions even hit the vicinity of Nolan, which surprised the people of Grant's capital three times a day.

This battle dramatically changed the strategic situation of the Kingdom of Grant.

After this battle, Marshal Breener completely established the name of a famous general.

Even if the old marshal is dying, he can still rely on his past prestige to make the orc high-level not dare to move.

In order to commemorate that great victory, a castle was built on the site of the battlefield and named the City of Victory.

The area where Marshal Breenne was stationed for a long time was named County Brynner.

Duke Roger led his troops to surround the main rebel army, but the rebels still had a partial division roaming outside to fight with the main rebel army.

This detachment constantly attacked Duke Roger's grain routes, suppressed the efficiency of transporting grain and grass in Geda Province, and pinned down the Warcraft cavalry commanded by Duke Roger.

After crossing the mountains and crossing the trail into Canyon County, Richard immediately released cavalry reconnaissance and soon spotted a force of enemies.

This enemy was none other than the cavalry of the rebels roaming the way.

The cavalry was collecting food in a village at the foot of a hill when they suddenly spotted a coalition of nobles coming from the northwest.

The scout immediately dismounted and lit the beacon fire, and both sides were caught off guard and immediately caught in the skirmish.

This group of cavalry was not very numerous, only one squadron of about a hundred people.

The number of cavalry under Richard exceeded five hundred, and the number of Warcraft cavalry totaled more than sixty. There are more than 200 elite cavalry riding tall northern horses and wearing well-protected armor, and the remaining more than 200 miscellaneous soldiers can also fight, and they have many combat experiences.

The forces of both the enemy and the enemy were out of balance from the very beginning.

When the rebel cavalry spotted the enemy, they immediately sounded the rallying call.

Once the cavalry entered the village, it lost its impact and its combat effectiveness was not comparable to that of the infantry.

The rebel cavalry had just assembled and left the village, and Richard himself appeared nearby with the Warcraft cavalry.

Looking at the northern horses with shiny fur under the rebels' crotch, Richard's eyes lit up, as if these northern war horses were already in his bag.

Richard squinted his eyes and let his soldiers shout: "If you dismount and surrender, I swear in honor of nobility that I will not slaughter the captives." ”

"Bullshit aristocratic honor, believers in God the Father, charge with me!"

The rebel commander brandished his enchanted sword, pointed in Richard's direction, and charged at Richard with a kick of his horse.

Richard grabbed the reins and immediately unleashed a powerful cobweb technique, and large cobwebs appeared in front of the rebel cavalry, tripping more than a dozen cavalrymen in an instant.

If you fall off your horse in cavalry combat, it is difficult for an ordinary soldier to survive unless it is a strong professional.

How could the strength of ordinary people stop the charging war horse?

Strong inertia will trample a fallen cavalry into a pulp.

Tripping over the spider web, the cavalry who fell off their horses died instantly.

Seeing that the rebel commander was not afraid of life and death, Richard loosened his finger and shot a sharp arrow into the man's eye.

The rebel commander was already a third-order professional, and his reaction was very agile, and he dodged a fatal arrow at the last moment, and before he could rejoice, another deadly arrow came.

It was Soros who shot this arrow, and he couldn't dodge the second arrow at all after dodging the first arrow.

Soros's arrow directly penetrated the heart shield and hit the person's heart, killing him on the spot.

The strength and weakness of the two sides are so obvious, there are more than ten middle-level professionals on Richard's side, and there are dozens of Warcraft cavalry, and after a hedge, the rebels have all fallen off their horses, and the casualties are exhausted.

The casualties of the Warcraft cavalry were minimal, only two were injured by the drain, and after being treated by the priest, they could go into battle in two or three days.
