The Amber Sword: Act 25 Aouine’s Fire Seed
The sudden situation on the battlefield disrupted all deployments and made Brando understand for the first time. The so-called precision plan is basically equivalent to Great Path King Hessen I ’s decree -- under the command art of this era. The noble army, especially those outdated command structures and procrastinating disciplines between low level on Squire Knight are the archenemy of all Commander. In this case, what you have to consider is not to pray which link will not be missed, but fortunate There was no omission in that link, the more complicated the plan, the more loopholes.
The Sloughfarren region is located north of the Silman river valley, southeast of Tosankaad Forest. It is the end of the Chablis mountains at the Golan-Elsen province. This low valley hill cuts off the connection between the Warren Denghu Plain and the Silman river valley. Natural barrier. Several tributaries that flowed into the Warren from the lake were cut across the hills to form several relatively gentle valleys. The army of Bloodcane was advancing along these valleys. The men of Gwen had long followed them to find out the direction of their march and detect these bones. May pass between the two valleys of Crevan and Chenier.
Clivan and Chenier are the two most important passages in the Sloughfarren hills. These two valleys are surrounded by the Jondell Mountains and are distributed in a fork-like north direction. There are many small hills in the middle. This is a gentle slope. There are also many large Linden forests that can be used for ambush during the season. This place is almost an ideal place to set up. Bloodcane never seems to have thought that there will be a coalition army from Lantolian and Viero to ambush him here. His previous victory made him proud and mad, so it will be broken in history here. .
In the original plan of Brando, Viero, Lantolian, Trentheim, and Highland Knight were set up in the two valleys of Kriwan and Chenier, and they opened an encirclement of about twenty miles to allow Lantolian's army. First of all, the Viero and Trentheim cavalry-based troops went around the more gentle river valley to attack, completely engulfing the army of Bloodcane.
But at the beginning, things have gone beyond everyone's expectations.
Bloodcane's army was divided into two, spreading in a valley about seven or eight miles apart. When a wing striker encountered the army of Viero, Squire Knight in the Viero army launched the attack in uncontrollable passion. The direct result is that the long arm of Bloodcane has not entered the encirclement at all. Except for a small part of vanguard, its main force is actually on the front of the Lantolian and Viero armies, and it is farther away from the Trentheim armies. From the beginning, the ambush became an obstruction.
And even more difficult is that Viero's army already is completely exposed to the Madara army's vision. Their already has lost a wing and their morale is accelerating. For others, especially the Lantolian army and the Highland Knight, they did not even know what was happening on their side. After learning that the Viero army was launching the attack, they immediately changed the battle plan and tried to preempt it. To the side of the Bloodcane army, I did not know that the covers of this encirclement were all already made a hole out of their own.
Ike still has a few cavalry with his men in the mountains and forests, and can only pray that the **** Knights, Viero, don't dig out a big basket, but for his little wishes Makarov and Oerding They are not very optimistic. They are too clear Chu's private army under noble. If they are allowed to chase or stay in place, or they can play 70% to 80% of their strength, but once they have a positive attack, they are afraid that they will collapse immediately. .
I have to say that these two old noble are very insightful about some of the sentiments and disadvantages of this land in their kingdom. Although they have not seen it in person, they also guessed that they would not leave it alone.
Among all the parties involved in this battle, Brando received the earliest reliable information through the Magic communication under Gwen. Magic communication was rarely used in wars of this era, because Magic communication can only be passed on. Text and Vaunde's decryption technology is really horrible: with Magic existence similar to 'Interpret the ciphertext', you can directly restore the original intention of the person who wrote the ciphertext when writing the ciphertext. Commanders is naturally unwilling to let the one's own command leak to the opponent Hands.
But 'Interpretation of the ciphertext' is not without flaws. On the contrary, the restraint method is actually very simple. As long as the person who sends the message is divided into two groups, one person is responsible for writing the ciphertext. The apprentice wizard for Magic communication is only It needs to be copied, so the person who sends the ciphertext will only think of the original ciphertext, and will not reveal the hidden secrets. The so-called simplicity is also after understanding the principle of Magic. The problem is that in this era, most mortal Magics still understand Magic. However, they do not know why. The wizards of silver is called Jianghu Sorcerer. The inherited wizard pays more attention to the knowledge contained in Magic. Most of Buga people are Scholar, while most of human wizard are surgeons. This is the gap.
In fact, Buga's wizards has long found a way to restrain this Magic, but this is their secret. It will not be popularized into the Black Iron races army until Tablet War. But Aouine now has existence outside the Brando situation, so the so-called 'barrier of knowledge' has become existence, and he directly plagiarized the method of wizards.
But this method has no technical content, and it is very easy to spread. Once Magic communication is popularized, countries with strong military forces such as Madara and Kirrlutz will benefit much more than Aouine. Brando has never used this technology publicly in the military, and often only used it in some intelligence exchanges with its confidants. Unless he is convinced that Aouine will have enough benefits to offset the impact in a large-scale war, he will never easily spread this secret to Buga people.
Actually, Brando's mind has already been settled, but the war with Bloodcane has never been serious enough to that extent.
He put away Cagliss's Magic letter in the drizzle, Madara defeated the old Knight army of Viero, but his Commander on the Viero side dare to assemble the Squire Knight from the territory below and put it on the left. Such audacity still made him laugh and cry. "I don't know if this is too self-confident or the self-cultivation of the so-called actor." Brando secretly thought, if those things were handed to him, he would rather send them to Madara to be against him, rather than command. The reason why "things" are used to describe those Squire Knight is that Brando is really impressed by these so-called army consisting of small landowners, run-down Knight and speculators. In history, they buried the northern noble, just like today's stupidity. . "But the adult Commander is also probably in a dilemma. At least these Knight masters are still vassals of Archduke of Viero. They are willing to shake their flags. It is loyalty and charity. If Archduke of Viero dares not accept it, his prestige will be gone. "
Brando knows these stale and rotten nobles these game rules, Knight and Thane, this is the cornerstone of this era. Unfortunately, these cornerstones already start from shake at their bottom. "Thanes, your era already ends --." At this time, he still had time to think of a famous Bard verse in game.
Brando is actually thankful.
Fortunately, Madara defeated Viero. What he was most afraid of was that Archduke of Viero's army first launched an attack to make Bloodcane feel the sense in advance. This Dark Thane, which has always been known for its caution, will turn the army and retract Silman area, if so , Things are troublesome, because there is still a Radnor in Aouine at the moment, they are now ambushing Bloodcane in order to fight a time difference. If Bloodcane fails in the ambush, then Radnor loses foreign aid and retreats to Madara's, morale naturally collapses.
But if Bloodcane curled up in Silman and gave Radnor a hope to break through in this direction, then the army of the three parties Trentheim, Viero and Lantolian will not be able to persist for too long in the hills that are not in front of the village and behind.
Once the Radnor and Bloodcane are merged, the chaos of Southern Territory will not know when it will end.
But what surprises Brando is that he guessed that the Squire Knight army of Viero was bad, but did not guess that they could rot to this extent. When the letter of Cagliss said that the left wing of Viero was defeated by hundreds of skeleton troops, He almost always thought it was a joke. But it is impossible for Cagliss to joke with him at this time, so the army of Viero is really ruined like a miracle.
It's just miracle stupid.
He played the letter paper, then walked to the side and grabbed the saddle to turn over the horse. In the rain, the army was being pulled up, and everyone was on the one by one; further afield, the young wizard group of Trentheim was under the leadership of Ciel's. Gathering, wizards climbed up to the phantom War Horse summoned by Magic, wearing uniform silver grey robe, and with hood, they turned their attention to this direction. Among them, there were Sorcerer originally from the rivers and lakes in Mercenary Company, and only from Valhalla, Fortress Fir completed the youngster of the apprenticeship test, and a small batch of Druid brought by Quinniel, and finally some women's faces. Most of these women wizard were pale, with a cold look, and their cheekbones had a mean face, they were witch from various places, persuaded by Babasha and two other witch, joined Brando -- or Dragon of Darkness in the future.
However, after these people put together a piece together, Brando finally has Southern Territory's first magic Wizard Corps. There are a total of 120 people with varying strengths. One quarter of them are Sorcerer and wizard from each Mercenary Company, two quarters are from the academic school of Trentheim and Royal Knight Academy, and the last quarter are witch and Druid. In the eyes of the regular army, this magic Wizard Corps is like a beggar group, but in Southern Territory, it is the first time it has been unprecedented.
The Commander of the magic Wizard Corps is naturally Ciel, but the deputy is Amandina. Since the fancier saw her talent and accepted her as an apprentice, Amandina began to learn Magic knowledge systematically, although she is still an apprentice, but Her accomplishments in Magicite technology are beyond the reach of most people. Brando knows the future of Magic Wizard Corps, so Amandina takes this position for granted.
Then Wind Archer.
Born from the legendary army of Silver Elf Forestsong Legion, the Princess guard, their Commander -- is sitting on the unicorn, now or in the past -- Medissa, spear hanging on the saddle, her hands folded and praying. Just like the warrior of ancient Silver Elf, pray for the Heroic Spirit of the sages in the forest to protect them, make them brave and defeat the enemy. It is also a prayer for the souls lost in the war. The singing of Silver Elf is ethereal and ethereal, so that all Forest Elf shooters stop and listen, showing a look of worship on their faces.
As for their deputies, Fina is already the most Fanaticism fan of Silver Elf Little Princess.
Of all his downtrodden troops, only White Lion Guards is the quietest and systematic. Those youngster from Trentheim seem to have long been accustomed to the atmosphere of Brando, while those NCOs and soldiers who have been supplemented from the original White Lion Legion mobilization, then They are full of curiosity, but they all have a sharp sword. This sharp sword shines in the hands of Freya. Since this sword reappears, the new White Lion has a soul.
At the moment, their deputy Commander Cagliss is far away in the Silman hilly area in the south. It is naturally impossible to appear in this army.
On the side of Brando, only Scippamira and Shita are left. The former is wiping the thick surface of Determination of the Mountains. The rain falls on the stone scepter. A blue circle of Halo is emitted from the scepter, as if it is mud. within the earth burst into life, full of lush Aura. However, Xiaofeilong did not dare to say a word at this moment. It roasted the shrimp of Scippamira, and the Priest girl did not bother it on dinner, but said nothing, just screwed Determination of the Mountains to find Go to the door.
It should be known that Scippamira benefited the most in the first battle of the Dead Frost Forest. At this moment, the strength of already has recovered to the level of element manifestation. Coupled with the nearly invincible Gaia's scepter, the end of Shita can be imagined. After that, it Seeing Scippamira is like a mouse and a cat.
In the field of Brando, the last one to appear is the Swordbreaker Knight group of Kirrlutzian.
These proud Knights rushed across the hill one by one and raised their swords to signal to him that although they were not many, only a few people understood the horror of this Knight. Little Pello was still wearing his thick cloak, and the crossbow was inserted under the cloak. He looked up at Brando:
"Sir, is the news reliable?"
"Reliable," Brando replied. Little Pello slightly surprised his eyes. It is very difficult to follow the investigation of Undead Army in this era. This difficulty mainly comes from two aspects. On the one hand, the Brumand's black rose rarely appeared in the world before this time. In the eyes, even in the eyes of Aouine, the dark country was a fragmented and weak country. Less than ten years before the first War of Black Rose, at that time Thanes of Callas often led the army into Madara territory for retaliatory predatory .
Although undead in that era was horrible, Dark Thanes was like a piece of sand. They even wanted to see their colleagues attacked by humans and take advantage of it. In that era, Madara wanted a Thane to fight against the power of Aouine, a kingdom, almost a dream. Therefore, except for those commoner who were deeply harmed by undead in the border area, in the mindset of Aouine noble, Madara is a weak, thieves-like country. They do n’t understand everything about this country, and they do n’t want to go. To understanding.
War of Black Rose is a terrible nightmare for the entire Aouine kingdom. In fact, until now, nobles did not know exactly where he lost. The previous defeat of Viero army against Bloodcane can tell everything.
So this is a country that knows nothing. It is a mystery in itself.
On the other hand, the huge difference between undead and the living has made it difficult for human scout to approach Undead Army. This problem was the most difficult problem to solve before Madara and Saers played against each other. Although Madara never bordered Kirrlutz Empire on land, the small Pello academics with their academic backgrounds were still very clear about this, and they were very skeptical of Brando's's rhetoric.
Brando's self-confidence comes from knowledge that transcends the times. In later generations, Wind Elf has many methods to deal with these bones and skeletons. Cagliss has to be taught by himself. It is not difficult to bypass the Bloodcane army. At that time, he had led the refugees to escape from under the eyelids of Madara when he was at Bucce, but Cagliss just led a few scouts behind the army, which is even simpler, not to mention that Madara did not really understand that there were such one's own investigation methods Many loopholes.
Little Pello salutes this Lord Thane far away: "Since the adult is sure that Bloodcane will never retreat for a while, then wait for our good news."
Brando nodded, youngsters of the Swordbreaker Knight group under his watch simultaneously pulled up the cape hood, turned around, and left to the south. But for a moment, there was only a shadow of a cape flying in the rain curtain. At this time Freya already came to the forefront of White Lion Guards.
"Brando," she shouted, "Ike has contacted us."
"Let ’s go," Brando stood up in the rain, and replied with a brave spirit: "Let those Knight masters of Viero understand that the era already has abandoned them, welcome to the future, this new era!"
Freya froze slightly.
Ciel blew a whistle and laughed: "Let ’s go, Freya, Lord Thane's means that although it is a pig teammate, we still have to save it."
