On the one hand, Amon did this because he had just taken control of the legion, and he needed to win over the people to stabilize his morale. On the other hand, he did not lack money.

In addition to the head of the legion, the highest officer in the legion also has the Master of Gods officer. The Master of Gods officer has 50 magicians, and their treatment is very generous. Amon himself was very clean, but he did not ask the Master of Gods officer George to follow him to be bitter. The materials and money that belonged to the priests were all allocated to George for disposal.

As a result, George also sent the materials and equipment in full, leaving only 10% of the military pay, completely following Amon ’s approach. As the high priest of the Temple of Isis, what level of oil George wants to have is an opportunity, and he does not need to make a fuss in this regard.

Equipment and military pay were adequate, but Amon was not lax in training. He planned to manage the army strictly, but he encountered a former commander who was more severe than his requirements. John was famous for his fierce temper when he was in He Lie Mountain. Now he comes to the legion to take soldiers to fight. With enough equipment and money, how can he tolerate the soldiers being lazy?

Whoever does not do his best in the exercise, the former commander will cross the lower-level officer and drag the person out for a fight. On the contrary, Amon played a role of leniency, often persuading John not to be too harsh, and to dispose of it according to military discipline, without additional punishment.

Amon also told John not to be too anxious and not to unduly burden the soldiers. For example, an archer's round of battle volley requires fifteen arrows to be issued continuously, so the usual practice is to shoot fifteen arrows. There is no need to force them to shoot twenty arrows. In the end, even the accurate head and strength are gone. After all, they are still on the march and need to recuperate.

John passed Amon ’s instructions on Mount Helie. He was able to control the restlessness that was difficult to suppress, but the power of restlessness did not disappear. When we meet again, this sixth-level warrior has become stronger than before. He was still irritated and impulsive, but he found a way to turn this restlessness into a burst of power, and he could suddenly enter a more powerful, flexible, and more sensitive state.

This seems to be a strange, explosive power awakening, which is an interesting discovery for Amon.

Amon once tested John's power outbreak. When he entered this state, even Mei Danzuo did not dare to resist. If Amon only used martial arts without performing divine magic, he would be able to suppress it. In this state, John becomes stronger than usual, but after this state, he also becomes weaker than usual, and needs a period of rest to recover.

According to Amon ’s analysis, if John overuses this explosive force, it may cause unpredictable physical and mental harm, and reminds him to pay more attention.

In addition to strict requirements and good command, the training requires two conditions to achieve the best results. The first is to keep up with the diet and nutrition. This point Amon ordered the quartermaster to absolutely guarantee that the fleet of the Shio organization provided sufficient dairy products. And another condition requires the cooperation of the priests.

The magicians will not directly rush to the front line in melee combat in the formation, their role is mainly reflected in two aspects. One is to use various magic techniques to assist the soldiers in fighting, and the other important point is to improve the morale of the formation. Divine magic can be not only offensive but also auxiliary. For example, although healing divine spells can't heal the wounds of soldiers immediately, they can temporarily make them forget their pain, while praying divine spells can make soldiers Be braver and no longer fear. Some clever spiritual magic can even give the soldiers a faith to win, inspiring the soldiers to forget to die and fight.

This is very important in the battle of the large army. Often the failure of a battle is not because of the number of dead and wounded soldiers, but because of low morale and the collapse of the front. Once the soldiers lose their confidence and do not have the courage to fight anymore, the feelings of despair will infect each other and the commanders cannot control it.

These magicians and masters usually have good habits, and marching is already a hardship for them. They do n’t use this power until they actually fight. However, Amon asked the priests of the army to play a third role outside the battlefield, which was to form a healing and blessing divine spell during training, so that the soldiers could recover from fatigue, and always improve morale to maintain a confident and passionate battle status.

Amon cannot directly command the priest. This needs to be ordered by Lord George. The Master of Gods officer George was very cooperative and issued an order in accordance with Amon ’s request to divide the subordinate magicians into four teams, each team of twelve, forming a magical array to take turns to help Amon training.

The magicians are suffering this time. Their mana is very precious. How can they be consumed at will? Adults of very noble status occasionally use this method when training their own soldiers, but they have done so in the entire legion and have hardly heard of it. The magicians grieved after a few days, and went to Lord George to complain-and they were not really fighting. How could they allow these noble clergymen to consume mana for those civilian warriors at will?

George did n’t say anything at first, and then came to see that there were too many priests who complained, and made a stunned decision. The great magician came to the training ground in person with a staff, and led four different teams of magicians to perform divine skills in coordination with the training for four consecutive days. Even Lord George himself did this, and the other clergymen dared not complain publicly.

At this time, George said publicly: "Our legions had previously lacked training. If they encounter a real war, they may not be able to hold their ground. Once the warriors on the front line in the war broke down, you as priests have no good end, training soldiers. You are also protecting yourself. Before this battle is fought, you start to complain, what if you really want to go to the battlefield? "

Master George ’s words are very beautiful, so that the clerks of the subordinates dare not refute, but Amon ’s approach is indeed unconventional. I have not heard of any commander who would make the enemies of the army consume unnecessary. Mana, and every day during the march. Amon, a student taught by Nietzsche, had never used the concepts taught in the temple to use mana. He even started to use divine art at all times even to avoid rain and shade. He had long been accustomed to it and let the priests do this. What's the big deal.

The priests are not clear. Their boss, Lord George, was also a magician in his early years, and he was a friend of the old maniac Nietzsche. He also knows how much Amon's details are.

But Amon will not be bothersome. He gave George a precious staff. Although as a high priest in the Temple of Isis, George does not lack good staff, but it is also a wonderful thing to stay in the hands or reward students and subordinates. Amon got three staffs in the mysterious cave, one of which was Nero ’s relics, the other one was given to Link, and the remaining one was finally given to George today.

In addition, Amon gave the gods a huge amount of magic stones for each of them, which was a astounding generosity.

There are rewards and punishments. Although the priests dare not complain any more, they can be lazy and slippery. As a result, Amon really does not give face, and regardless of the honorable status of these people, he once ordered John to work hard at the training ground The priest dragged out and beat him to death in public. Since then, everything has been on track.

The magicians are of course nobles. These clergymen may come from a large family with honorable status, or they are relatives of an imperial minister. But now in the legion, I have to bow my head temporarily. Even if anyone has a complaint against the head of the legion, he can only wait until the battle is over.

In this way, Amon trains while marching and steadily advancing along the coastline. Two months later, when the legion entered the cape city-state territory and was close to the border, he finally ordered the station to stop the exercise, and the generals only needed a good rest. According to the combat plan, Amon can't go alone or be backward. He needs to follow the northern coastline according to the speed of the main army.

There are reconnaissance rides between the An-La Army and the main army to send messages. If it is a critical moment, there will be a magician who will directly communicate with the aid of flying objects.

The An-La Army finally left the border and turned north, with the desolate Syrian desert ahead. The crooked coastline divides the blue sea and the pale yellow sand, and the waves and sand dunes spread out endlessly. The sky is as blue as washing, and there are white clouds floating in clusters, just like the gods in the sky are grazing their sheep.

The scenery is so beautiful, but Shino is so desolate. In this tranquility, a war is about to usher in the desert in the distance. After leaving the border, Amon marched more cautiously, sending a magician to take turns to detect the magic and always pay attention to the surrounding movements. The transportation supply fleet also trailed far behind, no longer too close.

At this moment, Scout Rider reported an unexpected situation. The Horus Corps led by Pharaoh did not advance steadily according to the original combat plan, but suddenly accelerated towards the center of the Syrian desert. The Sette Corps, which was originally stationed at the border, also had to change its plan to cover the civilian husband and the grains to enter the desert and follow the pharaoh.

According to the original plan, the Isis Corps should go hand in hand with the Horus Corps, which was tens of miles behind, but the Pharaoh did not wait at the border. The Horus Corps suddenly accelerated, throwing the Isis Corps away. The Isis Corps, fearing that it would lose, left a large yoke in the cape city-state, and lightly accelerated the march into the Syrian desert.

This is inconsistent with the original plan made by the Ethiopian Military Department. The whole strategic situation has been changed, and the steady advancement has become a surprise attack.

Although the situation on the battlefield is ever-changing and requires the commander to make various temporary decisions, such a big change has not been made before the battle. After all, marching according to plan has no success, even if the battle is unfavorable, it is the responsibility of overall command. However, if the main force rushes into the premises without permission, all cooperating teams must make corresponding adjustments. Only the head of the Horus Corps dared to do this, because he was the supreme pharaoh.

At the same time that the Horus Army launched the raid, it did not give the An-Latin Army an order of cooperation, which made Amon very at a loss. It was unclear whether he should advance according to the original plan, or follow the pharaoh to accelerate the march? It took a few days before he received a letter from the reconnaissance ride sent by the commander of the Sette Corps, Rod Dick, requesting that the An-La Corps also accelerate the march to cover the main battlefield's flanks.

Don't mention Amon's doubts, Rod Dick, who is responsible for the heavy army of the Seth Corps, is also miserable at the moment. He once persuaded His Majesty Pharaoh not to change the plan, but Lassis II did not listen.

In Rod-Dick ’s view, Ecu ’s national strength is significantly stronger than Hatti, and the legion ’s combat power and equipment also occupy a great advantage. Promoting operations in all directions is the most stable option. What's more, this time it was Her Majesty the Pharaoh who drove in person, and he did not tolerate any risk of losing. The only obstacle to conquering Hati is the huge consumption of logistics supplies through the Syrian desert, which is very expensive.

But something unexpected interfered with the original combat plan and changed Pharaoh's decision.

According to the reports of pre-war spies, this time King Lucir of the Hati Kingdom also led his elite Enlil regiment to take the lead. Lucille did not intend to go to the battlefield personally, but the royal aristocracy, the emperor of the Manchu Dynasty, and the veterans of the Divine Academy all wrote to the king to ask the king to lead the soldiers like Pharaoh Egu, even as a symbol.

The forces of the Egyptian empire are coming, and the Kingdom of Hati has been planning for this war for years. It is the moment when the greatest power needs to erupt in silence. Lassis II of the other party is on the front line. If King Lucille still shrinks in the capital, it will give the public an impression of timidity and lack of confidence. The king led the elite legion of the kingdom in person and was the best way to inspire morale.

This battle has different meanings for the Hati Kingdom and the Egyptian Empire. If the Egyptian empire loses, it is nothing more than the loss of a subordinate state. But if the Kingdom of Hati loses, it will be a turning point for the entire national game, at least it will lose a large territory, pay heavy compensation and tribute, completely surrender to the rule of the Egyptian Empire, and will not recover its vitality for a long time.

King Lucile was reluctant, but he was still in control. Over the years, the seemingly peaceful and quiet Syrian city-state has suddenly tricked together a well-trained and well-equipped elite army, the Anu Army that was originally stationed on the western border. Gorei acted as the chief of the legion as a great magician. The Master of Gods officer of the legion was his disciple Warlett, the former commander was the great warrior Moon, and the chief logistics officer was Governor Xiao Mo.

Another Nannar Corps, originally stationed in southern Haiphong, also advanced along the coast towards the Syrian Desert. The Hati Kingdom is well prepared for war and marching fast. The three legions have assembled in the northern desert area south of Charcoal Forest and west of the inland lake.

The above is the last message sent by the agents sent to the Kingdom of Hati. It has been difficult to travel across the hundreds of miles of deserts without being discovered by the enemy. The latest and latest developments of opponents are temporarily unknown through the channels of the opponent.

The Scouts sent by the Horus Corps went deep into the desert and caught several groups of people in different places, some were passing caravans, some were fishermen by the sea, and some claimed to be robbers. They appeared in such a place at this time, and they were naturally very suspicious, so they were all treated as enemy criminals. Under severe torture, they all confessed that they were the criminals of the Hati Kingdom.

The same message is mentioned in all the confessions of the spy. King Lucile led the Enril Legion, and has advanced to the grasslands bordering the desert on the south bank of the inland lake, and a permanent camp is being established. The Anu army led by Gore was stationed in the southern part of the Syrian city-state, and mobilized combat supplies while building fortifications. It was two hundred miles away from the king's Enril army. Another Nannar Corps is stationed near the coastline, two hundred miles from the Anu Corps.

The three legions are arranged in an inverted triangle, echoing each other, waiting for the Egyptian army to enter the ambush circle.

According to the original combat plan of the Egyptian Army Department, the pharaoh's main line of attack was to directly hit the pass of the southern Syrian city-state, and it will be faced by the Anu army led by Gore. And the other two legions of Hati may suddenly attack from the left and right, even if they continue to cut the supply line of the Egyptian army, they can also drag the main force of the Egyptian army. In this way, the Egyptian army will fight a costly war of attrition on the other side of the desert away from the country.

If only one person said that it might be fraudulent, but the criminals caught in different places, the interrogation confession revealed similar information after analysis, it seems that the possibility is very great. At the beginning, His Majesty was very angry, and he even suspected that a traitor in the high-ranking military of Eju had provided Hatti with a top-secret battle plan, so that the other party had made a targeted arrangement.

The former commander of the Horus Corps, General Brez, the Master of Gods officer, and the royal priest Li Qued all persuaded the pharaoh to rest his anger. According to the normal strategic posture, as long as the military understands a little analysis, it can judge Egypt. The main attack line of the army. There is nothing surprising about the combat plan formulated by the Egyptian Military Commission, that is, it is quite satisfactory and stable.

The Kingdom of Hatti has been preparing for war for a long time, and it is completely normal to make such a response plan. They are to rely on the border line for defensive operations and occupy the favorable conditions for logistics supplies and soldiers.

The Eju Army only needs to attack the southern pass of the Syrian city-state as originally planned, and the main battle with the Anu Corps led by Goret is in a head-on decisive battle. The connection between the Legion and the Enril Legion can be blocked by the Enril Legion.

As for the Nannar Corps stationed on the coastline, the An-La Corps led by Amun can go to the north to face the confrontation without asking Amun to win, as long as it can pin the Nannar Corps near the coastline, If you can't use the main force to attack the Egyptian army, you will be successful.

If the battle goes on like this, it will be a tough competition without any speculation, depending on the combined results of the combat effectiveness, equipment and training of the two sides, battlefield command and logistics supplies. However, Pharaoh rejected this plan and decided to launch a raid on the Enril Corps on the south bank of the inland lake. This decision of Lasis II cannot be said to be unreasonable. V
