Lydia ’s call also shows that Rhodes ’s quest in Clouds and Mist Summit Fortress has come to an end, and he can prepare to leave. After getting this news from Gaya, Rhodes didn't say much. On the contrary, he quickly began to rectify his manpower and prepare for the next action. But before that, the first thing he had to deal with was John.

According to the requirements of John, Rhodes released the cavalry captives in the battle with Leiya's, most of them chose to go home, but a few cavalry remained, they are subordinates of John, so hope Able to stay by his side. For this, Rhodes listened to John's explanation, and after John guaranteed the loyalty of these people, and their prejudice against the North was not so profound, Rhodes nodded and agreed. After all, as an Noble, subordinate/hand cannot have only mercenary and no private soldiers. If the profession such as infantry and Archer can also be excavated from mercenary, then the cavalry is a thorough military profession, mercenaries is mostly not riding, nor cavalry tactics. Raising a horse is a very consuming job of money and energy. mercenaries does not earn enough money to spend on their own. How can a horse be raised? Although these people origin South, considering the current tension between North and South, there is no water in their willingness to stay, no one knows, but as long as they can stay, Rhodes naturally has a way to let them integrate into it.

Finally, sixty-three cavalry soldiers stayed. This number satisfied both Rhodes and John. Sixty-three cavalrymen are not very many, not too few. With the support of these 63 cavalry, John has the capital to take root around Rhodes. If Rhodes wants to turn his face and refuse to recognise people or pay the bill, then he can also use these people's strength to respond. Not a lonely helper. For Rhodes, the number of these 63 cavalry is within their control. Although their total number is almost a quarter of their own Mercenary Guild subordinate/hand, but the single strength of these cavalry is only two They are in the early tenth to twenty-fifth grade, so even if they have any thoughts in their minds that they intend to make wind and rain, they still have enough capital to clean them up.

It can be seen from this point that until now, both sides are still guarding against each other. Rhodes believes in John, but he does not trust his people so much. He didn't want his Fortress to be stormed. John still holds the same skepticism about the Rhodes' guarantee. But even so, John assured him that he would strictly discipline his subordinates. As a surrendered foreigner, he also understood that his position was unstable, although so far, neither side has built a foundation of trust. But this does not mean that there will not be in the future. Both he and Rhodes must make a proactive statement, so that their contact will be strengthened. So John assured Rhodes that his own subordinate/hand would absolutely obey his orders and would not betray Rhodes or even make trouble. And if some of them make trouble, Rhodes can pull them out and chopped off, without even blinking eyes!

In the face of John ’s assurance, Rhodes also responded. He will also restrain his subordinates and treat everyone as fair and fair as possible. But Rhodes is the winner after all, he doesn't have to be like John. In response to Rhodes', John did not protest anything, after all, he also knew his identity.

These things Rhodes did n’t hide from General Garcia, but the interesting thing is that this seemingly sloppy commander is also pretending to be invisible at this time, anyway, there are just a hundred cavalry, just let go Let it go, this time General Dade this big fish has been caught in his hand, so there is no ——— to release those small fish, but that is limited to the soldier of the cavalry team captured by Leiya, and the 3,000 led by Dade Infantry, Garcia can't let go of anything.

This is not surprising. Most of the cavalrymen led by John have suffered a lot of injuries in the ambush commanded by Leiya. They are all wounded soldiers. These soldier will have no major problems even if they are put back. . However, General Dade's three thousand infantry surrendered in accordance with the command of the coach. They were not injured or ill. If they were put back, then it would be equivalent to giving the Reformist an infantry regiment again ... Such an idiot thing , John will not mention it, and Garcia will naturally not go.

After finishing these things, Rhodes ordered Leiya to take a part of mercenary to the frozen lake to prepare for the completion of the second 5-Star level quest. The other part of mercenary is responsible for sending those wounded soldiers to Fortress for rest. As for John, this time Rhodes also let him follow others to the Frozen Lake. After all, he will also be under his own leadership. Through this quest, let John understand his combat style and style. The next cooperation between the two sides is also beneficial.

And after rectifying all this, Rhodes began to go north single and head to Golden City.

For him, the state of affairs on the northern front has come to an end.

But for others, this is just the beginning.

Victory! !

Standing on the city wall, looking proudly at the wilderness in front of you, Bachs is full of excitement and glory inside. He lowered his head and looked back at the Medal of Honor and letters from Southern Parliament in his hand, and he smiled proudly and excitedly on can't help but. In fact, even Bachs himself did not expect that his combat plan would be so smooth. ——— used two marginal legions to contain Origin of Flowers and Clouds and Mist Summit Fortress, while he personally led 20,000 cavalry to Bramble Wreath Fortress. Adventure, but now, he succeeded! !

The Bramble Wreath Fortress, with only 500 people in it, fell completely without any response under his impact, and Calentes has now fallen into their hands, which suddenly made Bachs feel unprecedented satisfaction and honor. . He is able to stand here and occupy this land, completely relying on his own strength and plan! Those Northerner can't do anything in front of his thundering offensive!

Thinking of this, Bachs held the letter in his hand excitedly. In this letter, Southern Parliament vigorously commended Bachs and also awarded him the medal of honor. In this letter, Southern Parliament also requires Bachs to guard Calentes, and they will take this opportunity to ask for assistance from Parliament of Light, so that they can intervene. If all goes well, then it will not be long before they will realize their dreams, completely escape from the brutal ruler, and establish a new country!

By that time, maybe he will become an Region Lord, or even a hero of the whole country, maybe he will be awarded the rank of Marshal!

Thinking of this, Bachs feels that the sky in front of him is so blue, the earth is so green, everything is so dazzling and colorful. The sun above his head is so bright, that wonderful future is already in sight, he can already imagine his scene after returning to the south, countless petals fall from the sky, the people shouted their names, beautiful girls He scrambled to send him flowers and fragrant kisses, and he stood proudly on the carriage as a winner, accepting the cheers and worship of these people. Southern Parliament's group of Noble also respected themselves. They lined up to welcome their return and at the same time presented themselves with long swords and badges representing marshal qualifications ......... Thinking of this, Bachs can't help but shuddered and bit his lips subconsciously.

If all this can come true, then it would be great!

And at this time, the eager footsteps sounded, interrupting Bachs ’s imagination, which made him glare at the place where his angry voice made his voice, and then he turned around, and was here. At the same time, a herald gasping for air ran up the city wall, he complexion pale, with panic in his eyes that could not be said.

"Report the general, we found the enemy in the direction of Ferales Wilderness!"

"Enemies?"

Hearing this news, Bachs's heart sank.

"How many people are there? Whose flag is it?"

"It is the flag of the northern Fifth Legion [Sword Wielding Lion], the number is about 25,000 people!"

"Twenty-five thousand people?"

At the news, Bachs can't help but was dumbfounded.

How is this possible? How far is Ferales Wilderness from Calentes City? How could the army of 25,000 people get no news in advance? What are the Reformist people doing! ? Did n’t they always say that Royalist had n’t even figured out which army to mobilize so far? Who can tell him which of the 25,000 people's Northern Legion came from? !

That group of rice buckets that do n’t learn anything! !

After a brutal curse of Southern Parliament, Bachs quickly calmed down, and it does n’t make much sense to talk about it now. There are 25,000 people in the other party, but there are 20,000 people. Although Calentes City is slightly worn out, but as long as you repair it properly and then defend, you can still keep it, as long as the Parliament of Light can stop it during this time. For further action of Royalist ...............

thump thump thump! !

Just when Bachs was thinking hard, another sudden rush of footsteps came, and then another messenger hurriedly rushed up the wall, he was even more embarrassed than the first messenger, only Seeing this herald soldier gasping for air, he was sweating, and even the station was not stable, but even so, he quickly moved to Bachs gave a bow.

"Report general, our spies found that 20,000 enemy troops are gathering in the direction of Dagger Valley! Request for instructions!"

"Clang."

The badge of honor in the hands of Bachs fell on the hard stone-made floor. He stared blankly at the messenger in front of him and opened his mouth, but he could not make the sound of a long time/half of the day. The bright and glorious future in the fantasy just now is rapidly away from him. Instead, it is dark, dim, like a storm that cannot be resisted ....

Why.

Why did Royalist have such a big move, he did not receive any news?

Why did they act so quickly?

How could they mobilize so many people in such a short time without being discovered?

Why? !

The wind on the city wall made Bachs tremble, and then it came back. Although the gust of wind was very warm, but blowing on Bachs, it made the general feel as cold as severe winter. He took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, and then gave orders to the soldier in front of him.

"Quick! Send someone to Parliament for assistance immediately, saying that Calentes is surrounded by Royalist, we need more manpower assistance! Quick, go !!"

The messenger immediately ordered to leave, and until this time, Bachs was took a deep breath, and then he looked back at the earth in front of him.

I do n’t know if it ’s an illusion. At the moment, Bachs feels the ground is bleak.

It seemed like a prelude to the storm, and the depression was breathless. RS
