April 1.

The northernmost city of Pillar in the kingdom of Jestijah.

After the disastrous victory of the kingdom army in the Second Northern War, the main force of the sub-people retreated, and the head of the knights, according to the orders of the Red Earl Priscilla, led 10,000 elites to advance and seize this border fortress with a status equivalent to the lord's city.

Except for the defensive troops, these 10,000 people were all of Ulovar's elite mobile forces, and because of this, Priscika could not equip someone with enough troops, so he could only send a hundred cavalry to serve as the backbone of the officers.

The main force of the subhumans is engaged in a battle with the enemy army in the Holy Kingdom on the other side of the Great Wall on the border.

In order to prevent the kingdom from affecting the rear, the commander-in-chief of the Ten Clans [Snake King] not only left the nail of the northern city, but also reserved thirty percent of the troops in the buffer zone to deal with accidents and act as a reserve.

The battle of the subhuman kingdom pressed the national fortune, and the ten heroes died in the battle, and the situation could not be calmed down for a long time.

The most numerous minotaurs continue to besiege the city, and the main settlement of these xenomorphs is in the north of the empire, where hundreds of years ago internal strife caused the blood of the king to flee and eventually settle in the southwestern corner of the continent.

Nearly 50,000 minotaurs are constantly attacking the city, and their average level is not even as good as the kingdom's second-tier regular army, but the talent [Outstanding Endurance] and [Brass Skin] make this group of guys thick-skinned, and they are undoubtedly the best choice for assault cannon fodder.

However, the number can also cause qualitative changes, and the siege of the city lasted for half a month, and the Minotaurs were killed in a fifth of the battle, and their morale was still quite high due to their innate wisdom defects, and the defending troops only took 3,000 lives, but they were on the verge of collapse.

On the city walls, the fighting lasted from evening to dawn.

The Knight Leader's eyes were already red at the moment, but rest was just a luxury wish, and his comprehensive level was in the realm of LV36 steel-level adventurers, which was an indispensable and important support for the defensive line.

Stepping forward, the firm steps that have never stopped training from childhood to adulthood maintain the balance of the body, the long sword pierced straight through, piercing the body of the minotaur who climbed the city wall, and then directly discarded the weapon, picked up one from his own corpse and continued to fight, in this way to save physical strength to the greatest extent.

"Sir, the number of these animals is not at all!"

The deputy chief of the knights threw a bottle of bright red recovery potion from afar, both of them were the highest-ranking officers in the county, equipped with quite a lot of magic materials, but after fighting for half a month, no matter how rich the reserves were, they had bottomed out.

The knight leader bit the mouth of the bottle of the potion, and in the current situation, he had no room to pull out the cork, his physical strength surged, and he swung his long sword with all his strength, and a pale white sword qi several meters long killed the surrounding enemies, regaining control of the city wall.

"It's impossible for an adult not to be prepared."

The Knight Commander shouted loudly, Priscilla is not a person who can't give up anything, but the other party also doesn't do meaningless things, he must be here for something, as long as the time comes, this lone army can be saved, although he doesn't know who will rush here when the kingdom army is powerless.

The sun was rising, the defenders of the city wall of 2,000 people were changing guards, and the knight commander was just about to catch his breath for a moment when he saw a long "wave" rushing at the end of his sight.

It was a cavalry marching at full speed, and there were at least three knight battle formations on the scale, that is, fifteen thousand men.

The waves are surging forward, and the leader is in the battle array, but the momentum is particularly eye-catching.

The armor is pitch-black, the three-meter giant sword that glows with blue-black light, and the huge goatman who sits down.

As the swing of the sword fell so fast that it was impossible to see clearly, nine slashes tens of meters long tore through the ground like a crescent moon and struck forward.

After the iconic opening, the roar of the cavalry resounded in the sky, and in the process of advancing all the way north, the black knight would randomly select a team of five hundred people to go out hunting, a dozen or dozens of times had already lost the concept, since they always won and won, then the number of times seemed insignificant.

The Nine Paths slashed with all his might consumed half of the blue energy, but it also raised his morale to the peak, and the Lord Angel of Mighty Light in the Legendary Realm flew into the sky, because he didn't need to use [Crazy Military Momentum], he chose to give all his energy to greatly bless his allies this time.

Tier 6 Magic: Bones of the Silver Army.

A large number of combat units are also blessed with third-tier magic silver bones, which can improve physical fitness, stamina and skin hardness to a certain extent.

When the magic was done, the cavalry army suddenly glowed with a silvery white brilliance, like a dazzling wave crashing against the Minotaur troops beneath the city walls.

When the two sides touched, the flesh and blood immediately splattered, the hooves of the beasts trampled on each other, the heavy hammer smashed the heads, the horses smashed the chests of the enemies, countless weapons were waving, and at the forefront, the dark figure had already reached the city gate.

The gates of the city were immediately opened, and the seven thousand men of the defending troops rushed out, and the head of the knight was about to say a few words to the first knight of the earl, but in the blink of an eye, the other party led the guards to turn their horses around and start charging again.

The battlefield is like a cake being cut into different squares, gathering superior forces to break through one by one, selectively creating panic, breaking down various invisible morale nodes, and finally creating a rout of the enemy.

On the edge of the chaotic battlefield, Jiang Yuan grabbed the reins, and the goatman leader under the seat was covered in blood.

"Go and preside over the harvest."

The five hundred people behind him immediately dispersed, this group of people is composed of elite adventurers, thieves leaders, and strong people in the wilderness, with a comprehensive level of LV20 or above, and now they are all under the command of the Guard, under the control of the Death Lord.

The situation has been decided, and the follow-up process of chasing and twisting no longer needs to be done by himself, hunting all the way, his comprehensive level has come to LV52, Soul Sword Guard: LV10, and he can already pick the next high-level class.

Until noon, when the war ended, more than 20,000 troops entered the city, and after the camp was determined, the army took over the defense of the border fortress.

The number of captives of the minotaurs was as high as 20,000, and this group of guys was not very bright-minded, and after losing the leaders of the various departments, they became leaderless, which greatly reduced the difficulty of management.

The meeting of senior officers immediately began, and the four knights, the chief of the infantry, the chief and deputy commanders of the knights, and the deputy commanders were present.

Jiang Yuan sat on the throne as a matter of course.

The first order was about the formation of the mage regiment, which was concurrently served by the head of the infantry, and after absorbing the mages of the garrison, the number came to two hundred, which could only be regarded as having a preliminary framework.

The second order was to restart slavery, distribute Minotaur slaves to officers and soldiers at all levels according to their military exploits, and in the future, after the partition of the land, they would need manpower to open up the wasteland and cultivate the land, and in order to avoid riots, all captives would have their left arms cut off.

This decision will be fraught in the long run, but it will be a bearable problem for a rare period of rapid development.

Previously, under the impetus of the Golden Princess, the kingdom of Yestijah abolished the slavery system, but at present, the sub-people have caused great casualties in the territory, and they will not immediately face large-scale opposition under the cover of hatred.
