"In the fourth year of the new calendar, the one hundred and twelfth day of the Sivanian War. Rain. The date for the decisive battle is finally approaching. The constant harassment of vampires, while not stopping, has also significantly abated. He is probably also concentrating on preparing for the last big battle...... The things that Mistress Beller said to me haunted me. Tortured into the depths of my soul. I originally thought that the war was just a battle between the two sides, depending on the bravery of the soldiers and the command of the generals. But now it seems, everything is not so simple. I asked Lord Bellor what he would do now if he was the general of the Bin, and he shook his head and told me not to be greedy and not to be stupid. I couldn't understand what he meant, but I knew he wouldn't continue to explain. Because there are some things in it that I can't understand now......"

Robin sighed and put down his pen. He once wrote this war diary with great enthusiasm, wanting to record this war as a valuable record for his future reference. But the facts seemed to play a joke on him, and the outcome of the war was decided before it began.

The voices outside were so loud that he could barely continue writing, and the voices were so chaotic that he couldn't tell what the people were saying. In fact, even if they speak slowly, Robin is difficult to understand, he does not understand the dialect of the Bin.

"Robin!" an eager voice rang out, and it was Beller who spoke. Bayral stormed Robin's tent.

"Your Excellency!" it only took one glance for Robin to tell from Beller's face that something big had happened. "There's a decisive battle ahead?" he asked instinctively.

"Nope. Last night, vampires captured the city of Mill. Bayral replied. "Bernando is gone, we don't have time. Prepare your luggage immediately, throw away all the extra stuff and we'll have to leave within five minutes. ”

"Mill City? but...... That city...... Behind us!"

"Well, the vampire took a detour back behind us from that path with the dragon. Bayral said simply.

Robin also knew what was going on that road. Enough times to teach people that the dragon is a third party that cannot be messed with. The dragon was a beast that spewed flames of molten iron, wings that traveled thousands of miles a day, and a beast of immense strength. If all this wasn't dangerous enough, dragons also possess a keen sense that far surpasses that of humans and a high IQ that is not inferior to that of human minds. So even in this war, no one has any idea about that road.

"I think this is the trump card that the vampire has planned to use against the crusaders. Bayral replied. "He must have killed the dragon a long time ago. Hurry up, I'll tell you the details later. ”

But Robin had already prepared for it. The two men quickly left the place and ran towards the place where the horses were hidden. Several of Bayral's guards were waiting for them here, each with two horses, which could support them on a fast march for a long time.

It was only after getting on the horse that Bayral's attitude softened. The far-sighted Governor had already mapped out an escape route for himself and his entourage, so he was not afraid at this moment.

"My lord, what can vampires raid for ......?"

"Because vampires let his human minions take the lead. Before Robin could finish speaking, Baylor picked up. "Looks like I underestimated him. I thought that with a population of less than 100,000 in Sivania, there would be no way to raise a decent army no matter how much they put it together, so the vampires would abandon their intention of relying on human soldiers altogether, and at most treat them as a defensive force. But I didn't expect him to do the opposite...... Rely on a thousand human soldiers to launch a surprise attack. ”

"Of course, that's also half the credit of Kaedasa. In order to strengthen the front, he almost exhausted the forces in the rear......" Bayral smiled for some reason. However, it is also a consolation for him to be defeated by the enemy's masterful strategy, rather than being stabbed in the back by an ally. At least not before you die, with pain and hatred, and unwillingly. ”

"Then the ...... of the hama"

"The Hama clan is finished. Béral replied unabashedly. "But the Ryans' plan to consume it has also failed. ”

"What do you mean?"

"Holy water is limited and is mainly supplied to front-line troops. Bayral replied. "The old and infirm women and children in the rear did not receive holy water. Vampires will kill all the Hama and resurrect their corpses. In this way, he will be able to replenish his forces from death in no time. ”

"But the people of the Hama can escape. "A large number of Binds are scattered on the plains centered on the city of Mir, and after the fall of the city, they may not be able to fight, but they should have enough opportunities to escape.

"It didn't work. The plains do not mean that you can escape. Bayral replied. Ahead was a grove, and he stopped his horse and motioned for one of the guards to investigate. Taking advantage of this gap, he pulled out the map from his backpack and motioned it to Robin.

"Here, here, here, here...... If these five or six key points are kept, all the women and children of the Binzhou tribe can be trapped on this plain, and there is no escape. There's no way a vampire can't see it, and he's going to do it. Probably only a handful of people were able to escape the massacre. ”

After a short while, the guard returned. There was nothing suspicious in the woods, and fresh horseshoe prints were found on the ground. This means that in half a day, other teams have passed here.

"It seems that Bernando is also going down this path. Béral pondered for a moment before coming to this conclusion. "Looks like that guy is smart too, he's ready for a long time. Let's go. ”

He thought very clearly, the vampire was in a hurry to complete the siege now, and there would be no spare time to take care of this carefully selected remote path for the time being.

"By the way, Lord Bayral, where are we going?"

"Go and rendezvous with Leto. Bayral replied. "He's waiting there. However, this time it failed to accomplish the purpose of consuming vampires...... But it forced the vampire to show his trump card. Speaking of which, Bayral was still a little surprised. "I've thought about it, but it's too difficult to kill that dragon. The dragon was known for its wisdom and stubbornness. If you don't get it right, it's tantamount to getting yourself into a big trouble. But because of this, if you kill this dragon, you will have a chance to launch a surprise attack. Come to think of it, this would be tantamount to going around behind the enemy's back, encircling them in the valley, cutting off their supplies and backups. To be honest, this kind of thinking is dangerous, but it is very genius, and I didn't even expect it. ”

"Didn't you expect that, sir?" didn't you say you felt a little better than him...... "Robin remembered that Beller had thought he was better than that Essrufat.

"There is a difference between being serious and not being serious. And not in his position, not in his own business. Belle Ha laughed. "It's not our war anyway. Just wait and see how Kedasa copes. In fact, he still has a chance now. ”

"Opportunity?"

"Well, now there are only two options left for the Binds, to break forward into Sivania, or to go backwards, to return to the city of Mir before the massacre. It was a difficult choice, or rather a cruel one. On the surface, the latter seems to be an easy choice, but in fact, the latter is a dead end, and the former has the only way to live. Only by abandoning the old and weak women and children who have fallen into the hands of vampires can we gain a glimmer of life in this dead end. There was a palpable hint of ruthlessness in Bayer's voice. "Robin, even if it's the right choice, it's not so easy to make, do you know what Lu Dao is for?"

"For what?"

Because the vast majority of people in this world are selfish and foolish. Only with iron will and action can we overcome foolishness and gallop freely. Unfortunately, the Bins are essentially just a loose union. ”

While Bayrell was taking Robin all the way forward, on the side of the camp of the Bin, the leaders of the Binds also got the relevant news sooner or later. Before they got the news, everyone was gearing up for the last battle. No one ever thought about the rear.

The news completely shocked everyone.

As Beller said, the Hama are a loose union, not the kind of army united under the same will. They are not so much a unified army as a coalition of individual forces. In the event of such an unexpected incident that is beyond the normal range, the weakness of the coalition forces' internal coordination and sluggish response is fully revealed. The Great Elder of Kaidasa reacted quickly, and as soon as he was sure of the accuracy of the message, he sent a letter to summon the various leaders, but by the time they were assembled, a whole day had passed.

In the camp late at night, the light of the torches illuminated the chief's tent very brightly. In full contrast to the bright light of the fire are the faces of the people. Negative feelings such as fear, insecurity, and anger emerge and change on each face.

A whole circle of seating was arranged in the chief's tent, according to the traditional meeting of elders of the Bin. At this point, a quarter of the seats were still vacant, but the meeting had already begun.

Kedaza still sat in the chair as he was customary. During this time, his power and status have improved dramatically. At least four tribes have publicly sworn allegiance to him, and rumors have at least double-digit tribes that privately bid for obedience to him. At this point, at least one-third of the strength of the Binzu tribe is the only one-third of his strength.

Kedassa was still clad in a scarlet-trimmed black cloak, and he wore his red and gold, bright as flames. But his countenance was visibly withered. After all, he was no longer young, and the busyness and mental blow of a whole day and night made him seem a little exhausted and exhausted. The joy of victory had given him a brief moment of youth and vigor, but at this moment, he had long since lost his former demeanor. His gray hair was a little disheveled in the firelight.

"Hasn't Damon come yet?" said Kedasa in a low voice to one of his men. "I remember telling you that I was the first to inform him. ”

"Sorry, but ...... He seemed reluctant to come. The man replied in a low voice. There is also a quarter of the seats vacant, which can never be explained by "not being informed", but can only be understood separately.

Kedasa gave an unobtrusive wry smile. It's a rift he created with his own hands. In retrospect, it seems that he was indeed too impatient, and he should have been more secure, so that there would have been fewer confrontations. But there is only a trace of regret. Damon's gang had no choice—in fact, all of them.

Most of the elders and great elders have already arrived here, and they have reached the required number of people to hold a meeting. Even if Damon wants to do something secretly, there are no conditions and no excuses. He, Kaidasa is the most powerful person in the Bin, the real uncrowned king.

"Ladies and gentlemen," said Kedasa, in a deep voice, and as he began to speak, he noticed with satisfaction that all the cacophony had disappeared. "What do we do now?"
