The Amber Sword: Act 329 Holy White’s Campaign XIII
It was almost late at night when we arrived at Maer Highland. silver moon was suspended in the sky, and a veil of moonlight was poured between the mountains. The forest is silent, covering the mountains and rivers on both sides, but at the intersection of foothills, the river flows wide to form river plain.
NCO students of Royal Knight Academy intends to survey the terrain by night, but is stopped by Brando. Brando let everyone rest on the spot, get up early in the morning to arrange defense. The noble personal soldiers were okay, and they had been miserable for a night. The Brando's command made them praised; but the young NCO students inevitably has some criticisms. How can -- arrange defense without detecting the terrain? Even the simplest line of defense must be adapted to local conditions. The infantry code clearly states, what does the adult Commander think? However, the military order was so mountainous that everyone was destined to fall asleep with doubts.
The mountains and forests at night when the snow melts are extraordinarily cold. Due to lack of preparation, NCO students often only has a thin blanket, which can be imagined at such a temperature. Brando saw that many of the youngster were blushing and blue, but the noble army of Oerding did not have a tent. This was no other way. He could only inspect it to see if there was anything else that could help.
Count Oerding of noble Private soldier, Naga , Royal Knight Academy of NCO student versus Southern Legion of Wyvern Cavalry Nor was it mixed up. noble The military discipline of private soldiers is not as good as expected, considering NCO student There are many girls Count Oerding Afraid of causing trouble one's own Subordinate Wyvern Cavalry To take care of their mounts, naturally they are not born; Flash Sea Up Greyfin Naga They are accustomed to the cold climate, but the dry land makes them feel uncomfortable, they all rest under the river bed, their bodies curled up.
For Brando, after physical fitness reaches Gold-level Domain, sleep becomes less necessary. The metabolic system is self-improving, and it is normal to not sleep for a few days and nights. He walked slowly along the edge of the black pine forest, the sky was full of stars, in another world. It's hard to see such a beauty, Brando can't help but stop and watch.
However, a gust of wind blows from the mountain pass to the south, and the storm outside Ampere Searl is converging again, which will inevitably cloud the next battle. Brando suddenly heard the sound of rustling noise shrubs being trampled in the back of his head. He pulled out the long sword and turned around. A bright costume came into his eyes. Aouine's Half-Elven Princess replaced with a silver armor. The following is an improved Skirt. Standing in the woods looked noble and moving.
"Mr. Brando."
"Her Highness the Princess." Brando was slightly surprised, but Princess didn't expect to fall asleep, and came running to him. He wouldn't think that this encounter, and Princess wouldn't come for a walk in the forest at this time. He smiled awkwardly: "How did Her Highness the Princess come here?"
Princess Gryphine looks a bit lonely. She also knew that she should not have come here, but after leaving Ampere Searl. That night she turned around and couldn't sleep. Brando did such a rude thing to her that day, she was so disgusted at the time that she wished to kill her with one sword.
But for Aouine, she finally forced herself to calm down and go all out. She told herself that this kingdom had more ugly faces, and she could suppress the one's own mood even in the face of Viscount Bergen's betrayal. But the scene at that time was like a nightmare, leaving a shadow on her spirit / mind.
If this person is more unbearable, it is so good.
Princess Gryphine's silver eyes reflect the Brando's figure. My heart is full of complex tastes. She had never seen love and hate for no reason since she was a child. Everything that night made her believe that there would never be an unconditional helping hand in this world, but what was he pretending to be like nothing, Obviously already reveals its true colors, doesn't it?
In addition, the status of Brando Darus descendant makes her feel deeply worried. If the other party has a bigger picture, what should she do? But this is also her last chance. She hopes to get an answer herself, even if she needs to give up more, as long as she can keep Aouine and rescue Halutz. She will stick to it.
Brando feels that Princess Gryphine is looking at himself. Can't help but blush. He doesn't know how complicated Her Highness the Princess's mind is, but probably guesses why. That night, he had a blank mind, and he couldn't help but ...
It's a shame that I've lost my heart for a long time, and it's too shameful to think of it.
Don't say that Princess will kill him with a sword, but with a word of Princess Gryphine, he is probably ashamed of himself; but the mood of modern people is much tougher after all. After one day, Brando can pretend to be treated as It never happened.
I'm just a little embarrassed to be staring at half-elven girl with such sharp eyes now. He couldn't help but cough and turned back.
This subtle action caused Princess Gryphine's surprise. She was born in the royal family, and was born intelligent and superb. She has watched more and more struggles, and herself has inherited elf's sensitivity to changes in the human heart. Immediately felt the meaning expressed in this action of Brando.
"Is Mr. Brando also embarrassed?" Princess Gryphine's voice is soft, but it is crisp and soft like a forest Nightingale.
"Sorry, that ..." Brando is almost sweating, thinking Her Highness the Princess you are shame play. Although I know I did something wrong that day, you are not too much. The soul of his life was only nineteen years old, and the last life was a otaku that was not good at expressing his feelings. Although some of the original mentality has gradually been corrected after upper rank, it is helpless at the moment.
The guy blushed? Princess Gryphine couldn't believe the one's own eyes, she suddenly became curious: "Since Mr. Brando also knows that it is ... rude, why do you do that?"
She can't help but grit her teeth again: "Really ... too much! 枉 I thought Mr Brando is still a real Knight."
Brando suddenly spoken, how can he answer, can't say that the real Knight is to pursue romance? so funny. Otherwise, I will is responsible to you? It doesn't seem to be very good. -- doesn't say if Princess is responsible or not, what should Little Romaine do? upperclasswoman was the most profoundly influential in the last life, but the past cannot be traced, and the time cannot come. Brando is very clear about one's own feelings.
Princess Gryphine stared at him for a long while.
Seeing Brando is so bad.
Finally, half-elven girl only lightly breathed out: "so that's how it is, I understand."
"Well? What do you understand?" Brando thought for a moment, and looked at this Her Highness the Princess in confusion. A closer look at the noble and elegant Princess-Regent of the future Aouine. Today, she is still just a sixteen-year-old girl, adhering to the unique slenderness of the elf family and looking even weaker.
Princess Gryphine seems to have unlocked the knot. When she came to raises head, her silver hair flickered slightly in the moonlight; she smiled slightly, lifted her skirt out of the woods, came to the side of Brando, and looked at the stars in the sky.
"Is Mr Brando watching the stars?"
"Almost." Brando replied that Dim Sum was absent. Don't understand what this Her Highness the Princess means.
"Astrologers said that after death, people will turn into stars, so Xianjun and Father Wang are watching us in heaven."
This story sounds romantic, but Brando knows that those are just big fireballs forget it/that's all. Of course, he wouldn't say it in such a terrible way, besides that there are serious Astrologer in this world.
"Probably."
"Mr. Brando doesn't believe in fate?"
"No, I believe."
"Huh?" Her Highness the Princess froze slightly. Can't help but look back. She was not too tall, she could only see the wide shoulders of Brando.
"I believe that the fate created by man in the epic of Kirrlutzian, fate, is resistance." Brando quietly recounted the words that upperclasswoman told him that year.
"Fate ... is resistance ..." Princess Gryphine savored this sentence carefully.
Brando saw the figure of Nemesis from afar. She was covering the one's own blanket with several women NCO student. This detail surprised Brando a little. I didn't expect Female Knight on the cold side to have such a gentle side.
His Highness Aouine's princess, Brando still feels inexplicable. Half-Elven Princess said nothing at the end, and sat with him outside the forest and watched the little star for a long time. What kind of attitude is this? He hasn't even thought about it yet.
But all in all. It seems that Her Highness the Princess is not planning to hold accountable for that matter, it is finally a good thing. Brando is also greatly sighed in relief, otherwise this face will be lost.
At three o'clock in the morning, Brando finally met the Druid master named Wachick, who looks as abstract as Brando memory. The other person's first impression was like a crow man, with a pointed and long face, and covered with black patterns. He was dressed in a jacket and looked like a crow's feathers, his arms and fingers dry and slender. Shaped like a claw.
This person should be placed in the film and television works that Brando is familiar with. It's typical Villain, but the opposite is true. In history this is a character cold, but strictly neutral NPC image. Of course, most of the Druid is this virtue.
Wachick was rushed back from Ampere Searl, with a tired look, but according to the opponent, it should still be fine to stick to one or two low-intensity battles. Brando hurriedly let him go to rest first, plus the Druid master, he soon found that his Wizard Corps already reached an unprecedented luxurious lineup.
At least four Gold rank surgeons, High Druid Wachick, Conjurer master instructor Ciel, sea monster Bridgette and Dark Night Thane Andelique. Then there are Naga's 20-person priest group, Count Oerding also has a few wandering wizard, plus Flo, Tia two sisters, in addition to the lack of a Element-rank pillar -- this more than 30 people, the minimum Rank(s) Wizard Corps above silver Can basically crush all forces of Aouine's.
Unfortunately, the number of people is still too small in Brando's view. These thirty or more spellcasters are scattered into the army of several thousand people. Unlike the war in the future of the big Monster Wave era, one legion can assemble more than a hundred Wizard Corpss. In addition to being distributed in the army to be responsible for defense, it can also gather dozens of exclusive Wizard Corpss for centralized use, which plays the role of long-range firepower support. .
Of course, this dream is nothing more than forget it/that's all. The wizard without Silver rank has a very low survival rate on a large-scale battlefield, but the wizard above Silver rank is extremely poor. This is the status quo of Vaunde.
4:30.
Royal Academy Knights's NCO students ended the rest, and then Naga and noble personal soldiers were also woken up in turn. Brando took out a map arranged overnight and let them arrange the line of defense as required. This hand surprised everyone again. They didn't know that Brando was already familiar with the mountains and geography in this area. They thought that adults Commander took people to take the night to survey the terrain in order to give them a good rest.
The young NCO students didn't say anything. But I am grateful. Only Princess Gryphine guessed faintly, but she only buried this kind of guess in her heart.
The terrain of Maer Highland is a surprise for the defense. The branch of the three mountains meet here to form a huge valley. The valley is misty and envelopes the valleys on both sides. The river flows from the middle stream and emits a huge sound of water.
A towering ridge traverses the north side of the valley, and it is near ashen color at the far end of the field of view. Hazy in the night before the morning. This is the end of foothills that Fama Mountain Range extends southward. Locals call this mountain Angkor Mountain. Angkor means which means 'wall' in the ancient language of mountain people.
The two streams meet at the foot of the Angkor Mountain, converging into a shallow mountain stream. The stream flows down the river bank, forming an open river through the years. Chuandi goes down. Like a huge bevel, the sides are covered by forest-covered Mackenzie Mountain and Levico Mountain.
But both Mackenzie Mountain and Levico Mountain are flat and gentle, well below the height of Angkor Mountain Top. This means that if a position is placed on Angkor Mountain Top, the archer will be able to attack the two hills to the south.
If Northern Coalition and infantry and cavalry are to attack them through the valley, the attack on the two hills in the south will be a nightmare. But if you don't capture the south hill, the bottom-up attack is not just a nightmare.
This is a natural snag position.
Unless Black Blade Legion finds a way to cross Fama Mountain Range and launch an attack from Angkor Mountain. But it takes a long time, at least half a month, they don't have to worry about enemies from behind.
So the rest is simple. Although there are still a few people who think that it may be better to continue to dive into the Anlieke mountains. But that was just a possibility after all, and most people energetically started to set up defenses. NCO students quickly proposed a very classic and practical solution.
This plan immediately Was sent Brando , Her Highness the Princess as well as Oberbeck On hand. The plan is simple, as expected main formation The land is located north of the confluence of streams, Angkor Mountain foothills under -- Followed by bow and arrow positions, main formation Ground -- But the focus of defense is moving forward, Mackenzie Mountain Donglu, Levico Mountain Two hills on the west foot are included.
Brando saw the core of this plan at a glance. There were two battlefields on the two south hills. The young NCO students planned to use the terrain advantage to consume the living power of the southern coalition on these two fronts.
This tactical intention is very typical, and it can be said to be almost like a textbook. But in Brando it seems not so good. too conservative has some. He glanced at the others. Her Highness the Princess didn't say anything, and Oberbeck shook his head.
Lone Wolf is Lone Wolf.
Brando just shook his head: "Generally possible. But details have to be corrected."
"Ah, how to fix it?" Cagliss, who was full of confidence in the plan, couldn't help but stay aloof. This plan was actually made by him and was also unanimously approved by NCO students. I thought it would pass, but now it seems a little too taken for granted.
"That's it." Brando replied by hand on the temporary map.
"Ha?"
Cagliss almost didn't shake his hand and put the plan in his hand on his Lord Thane face. This is also called plan? This is not to give up the entire frontal position, Lord Thane should we surrender directly faster?
He looked at Brando pitifully, and seemed to want to confirm whether one's own Lord Thane had not slept all night and talked nonsense for a moment. However, he did not expect to be immediately sternly glanced by Brando, rebuked: "What are you still doing?"
So this young man from Trentheim noble can only think that he is unlucky and walks out in despair.
"This seems a bit ..." Oberbeck couldn't help but shook his head. The plan of Brando was too bold, a little bit beyond his expectations.
No, it's more than just bold. If he hadn't known this youngster before, I'm afraid he would start to wonder if this guy was a spy, this plan is simply contempt of IQ of Northern Coalition.
"It's dangerous, you and Makarov are very similar in temperament, but unfortunately ..." The kingdom's Lone Wolf also sighed. In the past, there was a lion, a wolf, and a fox, but now they can only rely on these youngster.
He can only hope that one's own is right.
Only Brando smiled a little, confident.
The sky is shining brightly, and the indistinct army in the forest begins to gather. Norsid and his Wyvern Cavalry were lifted off by one by one in the early morning breeze, and then cooperated with Brando-controlled Wind Spider Spirits to start expelling Cavalry Scout on the upper reaches of Northern Coalition sky.
This is the clearance work before the war.
By this time, both parties can no longer hide their tactical intentions. Northern Coalition's Commanders quickly understood that Brando was ready to fight them.
"Know you can't run away?"
Williams reached out to catch the parchment tube thrown by the passing Wyvern Cavalry. After a light look, a disdainful smile appeared on his face.
He is Maer Highland in front of raises head --.
It's eight past twelve.
Brando closed the pocket watch with brass cover on his hand and looked away from the other side of to the valley. His field of vision is extremely far away, and his powerful Perception ability allows him to see scenery beyond miles without fake foreign objects. At the other end of the valley, already has the first Northern Coalition, but it is not clear whether it is brigade .
"It should be Viscount Finn, there are a lot of people, afraid of thousands." Count Oerding put down the monoscope and muttered to himself: "They stopped, they should be waiting for support."
Brando nodded, Count Oerding is indeed a qualified noble who has served in both Black Blade Legion and Southern Legion. This judgment is still very accurate. His guess should also be Finn Brigade.
On the other hand, Enrique was a bit dismissive. The youngster shrugged: "No matter how many people there is, it doesn't make any sense. This valley allows them to launch an attack of 1,500 people from the front. It's a real northerner."
"But they can first capture the two hills in the south of Mackenzie Mountain and Levico Mountain, aren't they?" Freya stood beside Brando, answering with a long sword, and frowning.
"Then there is a good show." Brando hehe smiled.
