Chapter 1023 (2/2)

”But I think it's better to try this kind of thing before you can understand it better than listening to others. Archduke Sarika... What do you think?”

Sarika, who was pushed back, snorted coldly and said nothing more.

”That's the end of the chat. Let's get back to the point.” connord's eyes turned and fell on the black haired Wizard: ”dreisis told me that Byrne sent only 5000 troops this time?”

”Yes, a total of five thousand knights, the red dragon grum who promised to help us, and half of the Earls of Byrne's thirteen leaders.” Loren deliberately stressed:

”This is the result of careful discussion by Byrne - we all agree that if your majesty only wants to hold the fortress of duanjieshan, he needs not a huge army, but absolute elite.”

”Moreover, with the 10000 Hussars of Boye, the Empire no longer needs more cavalry as mobile support; and the famous' black wall 'of saklan should not need the infantry of the south to show off in the ice and snow.”

”Five thousand knights, more than enough.”

Dreisis frowned as he listened to the dark haired wizard's seemingly righteous but insidious answer.

In the Empire, only Byrne, who followed the traditional ”knight system”, the title of ”Knight” was not like a title, but more like an honorary title and profession; As long as you have noble blood - no matter how much - and have received standard Knight training, you can be crowned with the title of ”Knight”.

Conversely, if a person has not participated in the war, has no ”travel” experience, and has not even received Knight training; Then even if he has a title, he can't be called a ”Knight”.

For this reason, only Byrne could assemble a large-scale ”Knight corps” in the Empire - although most of them were hired ”Ranger knights” and ”freedom knights”, they were also very shocking.

Of course, even for Byrne, the ”hometown of knights”, five thousand knights are an extremely powerful combat power; Moreover, the dispatch of half of the Earls in the principality is enough to prove Byrne's sincerity.

So no matter how you have an opinion, there is really nothing to refute and question.

”That is to say, Byrne decided the strength and quality of this battle out of his understanding of the form of war?” emperor connord said faintly.

Lauren nodded slightly, ”you can say so.”

”Then I will change my current operational objectives...”

”I can only strongly suggest to your majesty that you'd better not do so.” Loren said impolitely: ”any change in the established plan will inevitably cause unrest in the morale of the army and morale; besides, the temporary preparation must be in a hurry. I'm afraid I can't achieve any goal at that time.”

”What if this change doesn't require any more preparation?”

”If you don't prepare, you will...”

Suddenly aware of something, the dark haired wizard stopped talking and stared at connord with a cold expression.

At that moment, he found that the other two were looking at themselves.

Obviously, I don't know all the information about the Azores.

”Dreisis told me that the army of Azores was walking a third of the way from west to East, approaching the fortress of duanjie mountain.”

Lauren frowned slightly: ”has something changed?”

”One third... It's all the information a few days ago. You're not only late, but also know the news so late?!” Sally Ka, who doesn't look back, stares at the black haired wizard and deliberately asks back.

As for what dreisis's face was black, she didn't bother to care.

”The latest news, we have found the trace of these long ears - near a deserted camp near blood skeleton Valley, but the troops are far from 40000, just hundreds.”

”Not only that, it seems that these small groups of enemies are not just one or two. Together, they have about 2000 troops, but they are distributed in the ice field outside the great wall of duanjie mountain. They are almost everywhere from the east to the west of Xuegu Valley!”

Sarika deliberately joked in a very relaxed tone: ”so we came to a conclusion that these guys are doing something to hide their eyes. They deliberately make us mistakenly think that they are marching at a great speed, forcing us not to leave the fortress of duanjie mountain and shrink here. I don't know what they are doing!”

”In that case, we can't let them be satisfied!”

”So...” Lauren raised his eyebrows.

”So we sent an elite Ranger to raid the troops they sent to confuse us,” continued Sarika. ”Then follow the vine and grab their tails!”

”Can you succeed?”

”Two hundred legions of Rangers and one thousand boi hussars, led by the church Knight leader of duanjie mountain fortress, Lord Naze, the sworn knight, plus count Seth braha of BOI, are absolutely safe. Don't underestimate the bravery of our boi people!”

”I don't mean to underestimate the Boyi people. I just...”

”Just what, don't think that only you Byrne people can defeat the Azores.” Archduke machete glared at him and obviously didn't completely forgive him for what he just did: ”don't forget, if we hadn't been supported by Boyi's cavalry in time last time, eboden would have fallen!”

Sullivan hugged her shoulder and looked like ”you don't believe me”.

The dark haired wizard can only look helpless.

Between the three people talking, a short horn sounded on the wall, and the soldiers at the gate were busy in the distance.

”The Rangers in charge of communication should be back. I'll pick them up.” with that, dreisis, who bowed to connord, was ready to turn and leave.

Before he left, a soldier dressed as a cavalry hurried up the wall and handed him an unsealed parchment letter.

Dreisis did not dare to neglect it and showed it directly to Conrad without looking.

”This is...”

”Stamped with the seal of the church knight, it was the Knight Commander Naze and the count Seth braha.”

Before the dark haired wizard asked for the exit, connord said in a straight face.

The three people's expressions were dignified at the same time.

”On the third day of marching to the blood skeleton Valley... The enemy ambushed the werewolf tribe in the ice field... With more than 2000 troops... Surrounded in a hurry...”

”Our army's intention was perceived by the enemy... The cavalry queue was torn... The formation collapsed... Unable to organize effective... Effective resistance...”

The intermittent words made Loren's pupils shrink suddenly.

Sally card is even more pale.

”Knight Naze led his army to break through the Siege... His whereabouts are unknown. Count Seth braha raised his flag... Tried to cover in a detour... Encountered a siege on both sides... Lost... Ready to retreat...”

”Killed in battle!”
