In the evening,

The setting sun at the Amyra Pass shines on the gorge full of rocks, dragging out long and strange shadows. The undulating mountains are reflected in the golden sunset, and the wild flowers in the mountains are accompanied by a burst of The rumble of war horse hooves made the semi-protruding rock wall tremble.

The cold wind of the bursting valley roared into the corner in front, making a fierce whirring sound like hitting a huge wall. It turned in one direction and rushed out, bringing out waves of hissing sounds.

Varisien, who was sweating profusely with his horse's hooves flying, couldn't wait to jump onto the slope of the mountain road ahead. The sound of horse's hooves behind him caused the gravel to fly and hit the connected stone walls. A crisp sound like a rainstorm

"Speed ​​up, the whole army will pass quickly!"

Crushing the rough and improvised mountain road map in his hand tightly, Varisien raised his whip excitedly and shouted, as far as he could see, 6,000 Falcon light cavalry led the entire sky. Smoke and dust, in the golden color Under the setting sun, like a huge steel rolling dragon, it surged out from the narrow pass of the mountain pass with great force. The setting sun was like blood, shining on the face of the Falcon Light Cavalry as if it had been released, and the light weight on its body was wiped out. The mail is stained with a rolling blush

At the end of the huge mountain road is a huge exit about 20 meters wide.

Just like the huge fangs of a beast, facing a piece of green grass, there is the exit of the Amila Mountain Trail that I have been looking for all day. Outside the scene of mountains full of exposed rocks, there is a landscape "The beautiful, green undulating plains suddenly appeared in front of everyone, giving people a feeling of great joy.

Plais, who followed the team, was riding a horse at Yamaguchi. [This chapter is provided for you] With a somewhat emotional expression on his face, he looked at the vast land in front of him.

This is a beautiful forest area, with dense alders and tender white birch trees in the shade, plain winds whistling by, desolate roads in the wilderness, and endless green land all around, stretching like a gorgeous meadow carpet. to the distant sky

This beautiful land made him feel inexplicably sad. Once upon a time, this was the country that he had sworn to protect even at the risk of his own life.

But now, the protector has become the invader, and he is getting further and further away from the ideal road. Leaving Ruidian and joining the Falcon Dynasty, will such a move be infamous for thousands of years? Or will it be passed down as a capable minister? No one knows,

But Plais knows that this road is tortuous, but it must be walked.

Palavon can no longer fulfill its original promise to protect the people. The civil war fighting for power will sooner or later bring an end to the entire country, and millions of Redian people will also be trapped in poverty.

Even if he is burdened with the stigma, he must carry out the oath that he has guarded for hundreds of years. The dark nobles have never been loyal to the king, but to the people of Ruidian. They are a group of people who bear the elite consciousness of the nobles. Even in the face of darkness , we must also shoulder the responsibility

The only person who can end all the turmoil and restore peace to Ruidian now is the Falcon who sits high on the throne of the north. This is the general trend and the reason why Prais finally decided to surrender.

Five miles out of the mountain pass, Varisien ordered a rest on the spot, and then sent a squadron of cavalry back along the mountain road to lead the way for the falcon army that would leave two days later.

The sky was gloomy, and drizzle began to fall in the sky. The raindrops patted on the ceiling of the military tent, making a rustling sound. The tent illuminated by lights was filled with light yellow color. halo,

Varisien used the torch on the tent pole and looked at the map hanging behind him with a headache. At the military meeting, His Majesty Falcon had extremely strict requirements for this attack, even to the point of being unreasonable.

"Sir, Lieutenant Commander Prais has arrived!" At this time, the voice of the guard reporting from outside came from the "mén".

"Please come in!" Varisien looked up from the map with a frown on his face, just in time to see the adjutant wearing a rainproof cloak opening the tent.

The young man sent there has disappeared. He must have been taken in by Plais in the rear army. From the fact that Plais came so actively, it can be seen that his goodwill has been recognized by the other party.

Varisien quickly stood up from his seat and saluted Plais.

"If it hadn't been for your help to get the mountain road map this time! Our army might have to wait on the mountain road for a whole day, delaying the opportunity for His Majesty's army to go south. Even if he has military exploits, according to His Majesty Falcon's temper, he would definitely He slashed me in front of an army of more than 100,000 people with high fighting spirit, in order to stabilize the floating morale of the army "

"Your Excellency, you saved my life this time! Please give me a compliment from Varisien!" Varisien said with a grateful expression.

Although he is a high-ranking corps commander, he is the adjutant commander personally favored by His Majesty Falcon, and is also the nominal commander-in-chief of this assault.

Behind his 6,000 forward cavalry, the 15,000 infantry led by Plais is the main force of this attack, and the rest of his army will have to wait until the army is dispatched tomorrow to come together.

"We are all colleagues, it's just a matter of a little effort!" Plais glanced at the tent and asked a little sleepily, "I want to ask, now that we have left the mountain pass, why did the army stagnate?"

Varisien rolled up the map on the wall and walked towards Plais. He said with some hesitation, "This is also the reason why I sent someone to invite you. Although we passed the mountain pass, I really don't know. How to fight the first battle of our army out of the mountain pass! This battle is related to the success or failure of the entire southern campaign, so it is really hard for me to decide!"

"Are you worried about who should fight first?" Plais said in a calm tone. He is worthy of being a veteran of Ruidian. With his eyes, he certainly knows who is under Varisien's command. The 6,000 cavalry are all first-class elites. Their riding skills are no less superb than those of the Kugits in the northern grasslands. In fact, more than half of them are Kugits.

Although the Southern Noble Army has 80,000 troops, most of them are infantry with poor combat capabilities. There are not enough mobile cavalry to contain the enemy. If faced with an unexpected surprise attack by 6,000 cavalry, Varisien only needs a few attacks. It's more than enough to penetrate the opponent's sparse defense line.

Since he was undecided for a long time, he was naturally worried about the target to attack first. 3∴35686688

Thinking of which point should be attacked first at the meeting, His Majesty Falcon did not say it clearly, but he made a request that made people want to hit the wall. No matter who you attack, you must not let the slightest bit of news get out before the army goes south to occupy the six cities. , with such harsh requirements, no wonder it makes Varisian so embarrassed.

"What your adjutant-general said is that I am completely helpless this time!" Varisien smiled bitterly, spread his hands, and asked the guard to take down the map from the wall and spread it on the table in front of the two of them.

Varisien pointed at the map and said, "Your Excellency, please look here. This is the city of Driss closest to the mountain pass where our army will attack. If it cannot be captured immediately, the army will be sent out the day after tomorrow, and it will definitely not be able to outnumber its eyes and ears!"

Varisien paused and said in a concentrated voice, "According to the information obtained beforehand, the Reda Legion of the Southern Noble Army is responsible for stationing here. This is a group that has been excluded from the mainstream regular army and is composed of thieves and robbers. A second-rate army composed of refugees and refugees, with poor weapons and equipment, and almost zero combat effectiveness. Its only role may be to serve as cannon fodder.

Such an army with no status, euphemistically called to defend the Amyra Pass, is actually equivalent to a disguised exile. The opponent placed it here, which seems ridiculous, but in fact it is an extremely powerful trap. "

"Oh, a trap?" Staring at the position of Varisien's finger, Prais's pupils narrowed slightly and he took a deep breath. It was the city of Driss located less than 20 miles away from the Amyra Pass. This is the closest point to the mountain pass, and it is also the most advanced position on the defense line of the entire Southern Noble Army. It is like an eye nailed to the Amyra Pass. The slightest sign of trouble will immediately send the news back. No wonder Wari Sean took a fancy to this place at first sight. It was indeed the most threatening location.

"The opponent has almost no strength to fight, so that's the most troublesome thing!" Varisien tapped the map with his fingers and explained, "The so-called defense of this army is to quickly flee when our army is discovered. When the news came back, 8,000 people panicked. Among them were 1,500 light cavalrymen who were fleeing. If such a group of skirmishers with no will to fight were to blow up the camp, I would have to intercept them all with the limited force in my hands without letting any news spread. Going back to the top of the noble army is easier said than done!

What a trouble! "Prussian's face was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Varisian to think so carefully. No wonder he was able to ambush and kill East Court General Bogor Zamu. Varisian's grasp of the fighter planes was as good as the enemy on the battlefield. The status of both sides is very clear. Thinking of an opponent who will run away at all costs as soon as they see the enemy.

Even with Plais's calmness, he felt prickly with a frown. He finally knew what Varisien was worried about. This time he was heading south to Xun, but as soon as he left the mountain pass, the news was leaked. Not only did all the previous preparations go to waste, but also It is also possible that during the trip south, we encountered a two-sided attack from Palawan Kyoto.

Such a situation is tantamount to exposing the backside of an army of more than 100,000 to the long sword of the Ruidian people, and they will be on the verge of destruction at any time.

After staring at the map for a while, Plais frowned slightly, hesitated for a while, and said to himself, "If you want to prevent the news from getting out, you should just cut off the connection between the six cities and Kyoto, but only There are more than a dozen large and small roads connecting Kyoto from the six cities. Even if you divide your forces and cut them off, it is difficult to guarantee that you will not arouse suspicion in Kyoto. This is the most critical point."

"Cut off contact?" Hearing what Plais said, Varisien looked thoughtful for a moment, then said happily, "I know what to do!"

"Oh? How?"

Plais looked at him with some sleepiness. Just now he said that he would cut off the connection between the six cities and Kyoto in one fell swoop. This was simply a tactical thought that was impossible to talk about.
