Working Prophet.

Chapter 736 Night Attack
Lanita rode the White Queen around the west for half a circle, and when she returned to Yanxue City, the new commander had been elected long ago, and had already marched towards the green field with an army of [-].

At the same time, reinforcements from the Moncent family arrived at Rock Snow City on almost the same day as Lanita. After being baptized by the dragon flame, the owner of Iron Horn City obviously changed his mind and began to actively participate in the war with the Arias family.

They sent an army of 2000 men in one breath, and they also brought a lot of weapons and armor.

Apart from the Moncent family, some other lords who were fortunate enough to be patronized by Lanita and her white dragon, as well as the surrounding noble families who heard about this incident, also succumbed one after another.

No way, almost none of the weapons in their hands can pose a real threat to the dragon. On the contrary, the white dragon can freely enter and leave their town and wreak havoc there.

Once this is realized, the choice becomes clear.

If all goes well, Lanita will be able to gather a second army in less than half a month.

Clovis, who had witnessed this scene, didn't know what to say. When the Marquis of Cullen was still there, it was not so easy to recruit troops.

Some vassals will always find various reasons, such as being late or sending fewer people, some castles are in urgent need of repairs, there are robbers in the territory, or there are not enough people to farm the land... I have never been so happy as now.

But Lanita is still not very satisfied with this efficiency, especially the news that the first army was attacked before reaching the green field.

The female lord of the Arias family did not stand guard in the city as most people imagined, but took the initiative to attack.

The number of people she sent was not too many, less than two hundred, but they were all cavalry, and all of them were dressed in black armor, even the horses were black, like a group of ghosts.

And they also appear like ghosts, always appearing at unexpected times and places, and the first time they appear is in the middle of the night.

It rained heavily that night, and the coalition army in Yanxue City had already camped on the side of the road, because the soldiers in the team were from different families, and several conflicts broke out just by picking places.

Some people took the position first, but another group of people preempted it, and then the two sides quarreled, and even rose to a physical conflict.

And finally when it was time to eat, some people started arguing over the lack of meat, and it continued until midnight, when everyone lost their strength, and then gradually subsided.

Wrapped in a blanket, lying in a muddy tent, falling asleep.

Although the new commander-in-chief Harvin also arranged for someone to be in charge of the night watch, but because it was night and it was raining heavily, the visibility was very bad.

It wasn't until the black armored cavalry rushed to less than a hundred steps in front of them that they were discovered.

However, the night and the heavy rain will not only affect the defenders, but also make the black armored cavalry unable to see the scene in front of them clearly.

So as long as they can survive the first wave of raids, the two sides will fall into chaos.

At that time, the numerical advantage of the coalition forces can be brought into play.

But at this moment, beams of light suddenly shot out from the heads of those cavalrymen.

This strange scene surprised many people.

Only some nobles and warriors who participated in the battle in the Longji Mountains realized that this was another method of Shuangxiu Sect.

But all they can do is try to appease the terrified companions around them, asking everyone to stay calm and not run away.

But the dozens of beams of light brought more than just a psychological shock. People who were illuminated by the beams of light often couldn't open their eyes, and could only become lambs to be slaughtered.

Those black armored cavalry went back and forth in the army several times, and then disappeared into the night again before being surrounded.

This guard team, which was originally led by Herodotus, was doing dirty work for the church. Their actions were often carried out at night because they needed to be kept secret.

Therefore, they have a lot of experience in night raids, and the headlights sponsored by Li Yu make them even more powerful.

The nobles of the coalition army counted the casualties early the next morning, and found that nearly 500 people were lost in just one night, and about 200 people were injured.

Those black-armored cavalrymen were very ruthless, and they hardly survived. As for the injured guys, most of them were injured because they were bumped into and trampled by their own people because of running around.

After that, the black armored cavalry appeared four or five times, each time when the army was most tired or relaxed.

And the most dangerous time, they almost robbed the food that was escorted behind. Fortunately, the new coach Harvin made arrangements and sent an additional cavalry regiment with a hundred men to protect the food and grass.

Those black armored cavalry only had time to burn a few carts of food and grass before they had to retreat.

The cavalry of the coalition army chased after them, and they didn't expect to defeat their opponents. They just wanted to entangle the black armored cavalry and let the large troops behind them complete the encirclement.

But if you don't fight, you don't know. After fighting, the cavalry of the coalition army realized that the opponents in front of them were all terrifyingly strong.

In just a short while, more than [-] of them lay down. On the other hand, only three of the black cavalrymen died, and four others were slightly injured.

The cavalry of the coalition army did not dare to chase any more, and could only watch helplessly as their opponents drove away again.

After such a lot of tossing, by the time they reached the green field, the coalition forces had lost almost 2000 people, and what was even worse was that their morale had dropped to the bottom.

Some nobles could hear their soldiers whispering about the Shuangxiu religion, especially the power of the Prophet Merlin.

Those who participated in the battle in the Longji Mountains before told their companions vividly about the various miraculous visions that occurred that night.

Although the new coach Harvin issued a military order not to allow the people below to spread rumors, another major flaw of the coalition forces was also exposed at this time.

Since the leader of the army was not a member of the Figuerola family, the new coach was only selected through a method similar to a multi-person contest, and his words were not so effective in the army.

After all, everyone was a vassal of the Figuerola family before, with the same identity and status.

Fortunately, Harvin was not stupid. He knew that if he just set foot on the green field, what awaited him was probably the fate of being defeated.

Therefore, when he was approaching the territory of the Arias family, he took the initiative to stop and found an excuse to reorganize the team and build fortifications there.

Harvin intends to wait for another reinforcement army to arrive before attacking, but Ilea is not ready to let him do so.

This time, the female lord personally led 5000 troops to the outside of the camp of the coalition forces.
