Lord of Lowland

Chapter 435 Bad Situation

Much to the surprise of King Rex, the Eluk Empire was very angry at this declaration of war.Cecil suddenly felt a strong pressure on the front line.On the opposite side, there are more and more soldiers from the Eluk Empire every day.Soon the five knights on the opposite side were already in place.And it is still increasing its troop strength one after another. With the increase of troop strength, the other side began to make tentative attacks on the border.Cecil was understrength and was forced to defend, with a shortage of mercenaries.Very embarrassed.

The mobilization of troops by the Eluk Empire this time turned out to be unexpectedly large. Those who should have been declared under-prepared turned out to be the active attacking party, while the Soloran Kingdom, as the active declaring party, could only do passive defense. This battle made Cecil himself very suffocated.Now the opponent is only making tentative attacks on the long front, and his two corps are exhausted.The opponent is still increasing their troops. Once the opponent attacks aggressively, I don't know if I can stop this tide-like offensive.

Cecil hurriedly sent a letter to the king, asking the king to promise his Golden Knights to come over as soon as possible. Although even if the Golden Knights rushed over, his own forces were still at an absolute disadvantage, but it was better than nothing. Now Cecil Syl was even a little thankful that King Rex let the Grand Knight of Osmond defend as the commander of the Eastern Front. It was a good thing for him. Please, the pressure on this front is so long, if I take the lead, I may not be able to bear it. get up.

But the news from the king made Cecil half dead. The Golden Knights and the Knights of the Guards were transferred to the province of Ecra, which is the central front in the west of the province of Samara. to defend, so King Rex appointed Cecil as the commander of the Eastern Front, and now he is solely responsible for all battles on the Eastern Front.

Cecil scolded his mother angrily. The king must have done his wishful thinking very well. When he had nothing to do, he would put a big butler like his immediate boss on his head. The highest officer on the front line, and then did not send any soldiers to himself, and even wanted the resources of the Samara province to resist the eastern front army of the entire empire of the Eluk Empire.Isn't this idiot's dream?
He didn't know that King Rex's pain is not less than his now, and the king's heart is also tens of thousands of points of resentment and anger. In fact, the king is not a reckless man. The attitude of the powerful nobles of the Croatian Empire, they all seem to lack interest in this kind of war.Fighting for the emperor, they can push and hide if they can, and if they can't hide, they send out some soldiers symbolically. With this attitude, King Rex dared to declare war with the Eluk Empire rashly.As a result, when war was declared, it was discovered that this was not the case at all. The nobles of the Eluk Empire sent troops as eagerly as if they were fighting chicken blood.Soon the troops assembled on the border far exceeded the Soloran Empire.The army in the hands of the king is completely insufficient, so he can only tear down the east wall to make up for the west wall.

He has seen Cecil's strength. Although he is very afraid, Cecil is still on his side, and now he can only transfer the Golden Knights to strengthen his center line, because the center line may directly attack him. The most powerful Griffin Knights in the world, the Dragon Eagle Knights and the Holy Sword Holy Knights, the three ace knights of the Eluk Empire.Therefore, King Rex could only bite the bullet and send all the troops that were going to deal with the major lords to the front line, and further compromise with the major nobles and deputy officials in order to gain their support.

Cecil has been observing continuously for the past few days, and the enemy's strength on his own front has grown to more than eight knight orders and nearly 5 people, and nobles from the Eluk Empire from all over the world are still coming to report.Even Cecil was a little surprised why the nobles of the Eluk Empire were so concerned about the war this time and contributed to Emperor Roland.Perhaps it was some agreement reached between Prince Mengshua and Emperor Roland. In short, the unity of the top and bottom of the Eluk Empire this time has hurt Cecil, and now he has ordered the front of the troops to retreat.In fact, there is not much room to retreat. If you retreat, you will reach the front line of the border city, and then you will be the manor of the Soloran Kingdom.

The border city is not a place where one man is in charge of the other and no one is allowed to leave. This fortified castle can be bypassed completely.Once they only left two knight orders to guard the main force of the knight order in the border city, other troops infiltrated and attacked Samara province, and the entire Samara province and even the northeast of the kingdom would open the door. Opened the gates to the armies of the Eluk Empire.

Thinking of this, Cecil was so anxious that his head would get dizzy, but he didn't dare to rush out of the city to fight the opponent. The strength of the two sides was too far apart. Well-trained, they are all the elite troops of the empire, and one of his two cavalry regiments has just been formed with little experience and is still very low in level, and the other has lost nearly half of the battles in the kingdom's repeated fires and battles. Staff, at this time, going out to head-to-head is like hitting a rock with an egg.Annie has started to train mage troops these days, but with little success. Annie has made amazing achievements on the road of magic by relying on her talent, but she is not a good teacher. She didn't have much patience to guide the magic apprentices who were not there, and these apprentices couldn't even cast a fireball after a month of training.

The entire border city is now shrouded in gloom. If the enemy continues to squeeze its strategic space like this, the bad situation imagined before will happen at any time, but everyone has nothing to do in the face of this situation, Ceci Er is very confident in his one-on-one ability, but he can't challenge an army alone.Anne once suggested that Cecil take the two of her out to fight. She has mastered a lot of large-scale magic, which can cause a lot of damage to a large number of troops. In fact, in this kind of battle, the so-called troops are actually Cecil. A drag on Bill and Anne.But this opinion was directly rejected by Cecil.He went to great lengths to find Annie to come back to treat this girl who has sacrificed so much for him, not to let her be his thug. Although Annie is extremely powerful, anything is possible on the battlefield If it happened, let her go deep into danger, even if Cecil died, she would definitely not want to do such a thing.
