Dazzling bright light shot up into the sky, and a purple sun appeared in the dark night sky. Under the influence of this powerful magic, billowing heat waves rushed out mercilessly in all directions. As long as anyone came into contact with this heat wave, they would wear
Their clothes and armor will melt in an instant, followed by their skin, flesh, and bones...
When the heat wave hit, even Vivian, Adela and others who were wearing Ryan's special armor were not immune. The entire top of the Iron Fist Castle was razed to the ground by the powerful magic. When all this was over,
There was only Catherine's proud laughter in the sky.
"No!" Ryan suddenly sat up from the felt. He opened his eyes and was about to pounce on Catherine desperately, but found himself in the tent. Ryan calmed down and then recalled that he had followed Orlando into the tent.
It has been a month in the prairie. Obviously, the screams caused by Cassano should have been in Ryan's dream.
Ryan took a deep breath and tried to calm down his emotions. He slowly put on his coat, opened the door curtain and walked out. It was already midsummer, so the temperature outside did not make people feel any chill.
, Ryan first looked at the eastern sky, and found that it was already slightly white there. It was obvious that the sun was about to rise, and a new day was coming soon.
Ryan turned his attention to the southwest, which was the direction of his second hometown of Cassano. Although Ryan missed his parents, wife, and Vivian very much, he did not let his thoughts wander.
Fly, because he has a very important thing to do today, which is to sneak attack on the Clay tribe's camp at Mirror Lake.
In order to avoid Chief Abdul's main force, Ryan and his Windwalking Archer Legion must leave three hours in advance. They will first detour dozens of kilometers to the south, and then run towards Mirror Lake to wait until the main force of the Clay tribe
When the troops stormed the expeditionary camp, Ryan and the others would attack the Mirror Lake Camp to coordinate Orlando's counterattack.
"Wait for me, I will be back soon. No one here can stop me, no!" Ryan said this while looking in the direction of Cassano with a firm expression, and then he turned around without any hesitation.
Walk towards the camp where the Fengxing Archer is stationed.
When half of the smiling face of the sun appeared at the junction of the sky and the earth in the east of the prairie, Ryan led 4500 popular archers out. In the month after entering the prairie, 5000 popular archers were fighting with the Clay tribe.
Hundreds of people were lost in the battle, and minus some of the wounded who were seriously injured and unable to follow the army, these 4500 people are the current total combat strength of Fengxing Shooter.
They fought continuously for a month but suffered little loss. On the one hand, these popular shooters received strict training from the Moon Temple guard Seres and others from the elves, and their own quality is very high. On the other hand, it was because Ryan did not hesitate to spend money.
They are equipped with a full set of magic items, which even Orlando is quite envious of, because there are currently armies fully armed with magic items on the entire continent. In addition to the Royal Knights, Cassano's three are built by Ryan himself.
of troops.
Seeing Ryan riding away with the popular shooters, Orlando turned sideways and said to Jonas: "Okay, let's get started!"
Jonas solemnly gave Orlando a military salute and left quickly, while Orlando turned and walked into his military tent. All the captains of the Royal Knights had been waiting there. After seeing the captain Orlando
After entering, immediately salute together.
Orlando returned a salute and said: "For this moment today, we have been waiting on the prairie for a month and in the imperial capital for 4 years. The glorious Royal Knights will once again defeat the enemy in front of it, just as
Like that for the past 2oo years!”
"Honor is my life!" Everyone answered in unison, holding their right fists close to their chests.

"Report! Our leading troops have advanced 10 kilometers, and there is no trace of the enemy!" a Clay scout shouted loudly.
Chief Abdul sat high in his car and waved his hand casually, signaling the scout to leave. As the leader of the Clay tribe, Chief Abdul did not ride a horse, but chose this kind of method.
A human-driven carriage. This kind of carriage has a full 20 wheels, and the space above it is also huge, enough to accommodate more than ten people. At this time, only Kailim, Lugman and a few close friends were sitting on it.
Chief Abdul didn't speak after hearing the scout's report. He just kept looking at the map hanging on the side wall of the car. Instead, it was Luqman who spoke first: "Strange, our camp is 20 kilometers away from the enemy.
, now that our army is more than halfway forward, why can't we find any trace of them? Could it be that they..."
"If I guess correctly, the Imperial City Expeditionary Force should have chosen to stay in the main camp." Kailimu suddenly spoke.
"Not bad!" Chief Abdul pointed to the marching direction and said: "There are plains everywhere here. Our Clay cavalry is invincible here. The army in the imperial capital is basically infantry. Even if they are very powerful,
But once we leave the camp, we will take turns shooting them with bows and arrows. Even the powerful Royal Knights back then could only hate the prairie!"
"What should we do?" Lugman asked.
"Humph, since they refuse to come out, then we will kill them!" Chief Abdul said with a sneer: "Immediately send an order to inform the entire army that the imperial army is too timid to fight and has chosen to retreat and defend. Now
We will use superior force to overwhelm them and completely annihilate these invaders!"
After the herald left, Kailim whispered in Chief Abdul's ear: "Master Chief, is there any conspiracy by the Imperial Capital Expeditionary Force?"
Chief Abdul laughed loudly and said to Kailim: "That doesn't matter, because our army is far away from the enemy. As long as we don't make mistakes, what can they do? And our army is all cavalry, even if there is nothing in the war,
Turning around, with the mobility of our army, we can get out of the battle quickly. Since we are already in an invincible position, what else do we have to worry about?"
"However, if the Imperial City Expeditionary Force chooses to retreat and defend in order to attract our army to attack in large numbers, and then divides its troops to sneak attack on our back..." Kailimu said with some worry.
"Haha, Kailim, you are too worried." Chief Abdul said in a positive tone: "The Imperial Capital Expeditionary Force is not large in number. If they divide their forces, it will be useless if they are small. If they are large, they will not be able to protect themselves. What's more, they want to
It will take at least 4 hours to go around Mirror Lake, and by that time, I'm afraid we will have already captured their camp."
"Yes, they want to sneak attack our camp, unless they have wings and fly over Mirror Lake!" Lugman also echoed loudly.
Seeing that Chief Abdul's words made sense, Kailim stopped paying attention. In a short time, Chief Abdul's order spread throughout the entire Clay army, with 450,000 people in total.
The sound of cheers suddenly resounded throughout the land. Chief Abdul pointed with his hand in the direction of the Imperial Capital Expeditionary Force camp and issued an order for the entire army to attack.
450,000 war horses immediately started galloping, and the dust they raised covered the sun in the sky, and the flat earth also shook violently. Chief Abdul looked at all this with great ambition, and said loudly: "The true God protects us, after today
, we, the Clay tribe, will rise again!”

At the same time, in the expeditionary camp, Orlando stood quietly in front of a wooden stake inserted into the ground. The weather was very good today. Orlando could easily judge the current time by looking at the shadow of the wooden stake.
Next to the wooden pile, there was a large wooden barrel filled with water. The water surface was as calm as a mirror.
Suddenly, there was a slight ripple on the water surface in the barrel. This ripple swayed gently. Before it disappeared, a second ripple appeared on the water surface. Orlando looked at the projection of the wooden pile and saw roughly
After estimating the time, he found that the Clay army arrived almost an hour earlier than he expected. Apparently Chief Abdul couldn't wait any longer.
The clear water in the big wooden barrel became more and more messy, and finally started to ripple. By this time, the battle flag of the Clay tribe could be seen fluttering in the wind to the west of the camp. Today's weather is quite clear, and the sun rises from
It was rising in the east. It was still morning, and the Clay army came from the west, just in time to meet the dazzling sunshine. Unexpectedly, Chief Abdul did not wait until noon and directly attacked with his army.
At this time, the expeditionary force had already completed preparations. A trench 5 meters wide and 3 meters deep was dug overnight around the entire expeditionary force camp, and the soil from the trench was piled into a solid bunker on the inside of the trench. The expeditionary force
The soldiers will
Relying on this one-meter-high bunker to fight the enemy, if the Clay warriors want to engage in close combat with the expeditionary force, they must jump over the 5-meter-wide trench on horseback, and then crash into the countless countless enemies with their own flesh and blood.
A steel shield wall composed of spears.
Of course, Orlando still deliberately left two exits on the side of the expeditionary force camp without digging trenches. All large-scale horses were placed here to prevent the Clay cavalry from charging here. Orlando's Royal Knights
The regiment only has 5,000 people, and they are well-trained. As long as they form a close formation, they can pass here quickly. If the Clay cavalry attacks here in a close formation, they will taste the power of Thomas's crossbow shooters.
anger.
The 450,000 Clay warriors formed a formation several kilometers away from the expeditionary force camp without any scruples. They dispersed the team without even releasing the security troops. Chief Abdul was in charge of the central army, and Clay
The most elite "White Frost", "Cuiyu" and other troops of the tribe were placed here, while other real warriors who had received military training were placed on the right wing, and the herdsmen gathered together with the summons order
All are placed on the left wing.
