LOL: I am a bad prince in Demacia.

three days later.

Lu Qi led the army and stopped at the dividing river of the Shuoyin Mountains, preparing to take a rest and start crossing the river.

This river connects to the Sea of ​​Conquerors and flows down from the middle of the huge mountain range. It is seven or eight meters wide and long, but not very deep.

It would be a good place if Noxus set up a defense line here to block him and the army.

But Noxus chose not to do this.

There has been no fighting between the two sides in the past three days. It seems that Noxus chose to turn a blind eye to Demacia's march.

However, this is not the case, in fact, because they know that the thin defenders in various places are not enough to resist the attack of Demacia.

Because anyone can see that Demacia's troops are divided into three groups this time, and the battle lines span the continent of Valoran and Shurima. They are obviously ready for a strong invasion.

So as soon as the border defense was breached, they simply abandoned those unimportant cities, transferred important supplies, and joined the real large army.

Only in this way can we be fully prepared for the confrontation with Demacia.

There will be a wider river next to Boreham and Grove. If Lucci guessed correctly, Noxus will build a real defense project there.

Taking advantage of the soldiers' opportunity to cross the river bridge, after resting, Lu Qi opened the secret key and saw the message from Triwell, and then showed a thoughtful expression.

Noxus agreed to the terms of trading prisoners of war, and the exchange location was a flat land after crossing the river. There was no way to set up an ambush and the terrain was open.

If Demacia breaks the contract, Noxus will no longer pay attention to any further requests.

Naturally, Lu Qi would not break the contract. After all, after trading prisoners of war, he would definitely not be the one who suffered the loss.

There were no more battles along the way, so the number of prisoners of war did not increase. On this march, he did bring some "trading" prisoners with him.

As time passed slowly, Quinn soon found Lu Qi: "Your Highness, the bridge has been built."

Hearing this, Lu Qi stood up and said, "Keep going!"

Meanwhile, on the Noxian side.

The general who was directly appointed by Darkwill this time, Demir Araus, has also led the raised army all the way to the west, preparing to block the Demacia army, with a very large momentum.

He is in Grovet, so he is not far away from Demacia's army.

This time he has a total of 100,000 troops under his command. Demir, who has just turned thirty-five, has great confidence in this military expedition.

From the intelligence collected previously, he learned that the troops sent by Demacia this time, even if they were divided into three groups, totaled less than 150,000.

And he already has an army of 100,000 in hand, and 50,000 more will follow. After that, Noxus will continue to recruit troops and send reinforcements, and it is expected that there will be at least 100,000 troops.

Even if there is a slight gap in the quality of soldiers between the two sides, the quantity is enough to make up for it.

Not to mention, attacking on one side and defending on the other have different difficulties.

The reason why there was no more was because Noxus had to resist not only one attack this time, but also a Demacia army marching straight in from the north.

Noxus also sent a hundred thousand troops.

Demir was born into the Araus family. He participated in three major battles in his life and performed well in each of them. There were countless small battles, and a total of thirteen cities were captured for Noxus, and a small country was destroyed.

He made a great contribution to the expansion of the Noxus Empire on the map.

It can be said that he became famous at a young age, but now he is only thirty-five, and he is already a prestigious warlord.

Before this, he had never fought against Demacia, but he also knew about this country that had also stood next to Noxus for hundreds of years.

Even so, he has full confidence in this mission.

He heard that the leader of Demacia this time was just a young prince who was just over 20 years old, and he did not take it lightly.

For such a young prince to be responsible for such a large-scale war, he is obviously extremely capable, otherwise Demacia would not have sent him.

This made Demir very eager to learn what this prince was capable of.

Riding on the war horse, with a little pride in his heart, Demir had certain expectations for the next confrontation.

But before that, he needed to ransom those prisoners of war.

In the past few days, the ransom raised from various parties has also reached his hands.

Another three days passed in a flash.

Both sides are moving in the same direction, but currently they only have one purpose, which is to trade prisoners of war.

It is a bit strange to say that it is rare for prisoners to be exchanged right after a fight begins.

On the flat ground, the two sides reached a tacit agreement on a no-war treaty.

Lucci also truthfully allowed the captives to return to Noxus at a price of two hundred gold per person.

In the temporary military camp of Noxus.

An adjutant walked into the military camp and reported to Demir: "General, the prisoners exchanged this time are all old, weak, sick, disabled, children, and women, about 70,000 people."

After listening to his subordinate's report, Demir raised his head, not surprised.

Just thinking about it, I knew that Demacia would not let anyone who could become a fighting force return to Noxus during the war.

Then the prisoners of war exchanged here must be the old, weak, sick, disabled, children and women who lack fighting ability.

However, the Immortal Fortress had to force the exchange.

Otherwise, he will only receive a lot of infamy. According to his understanding of the current situation of Darkwill, who is currently in power, it is naturally impossible for him to refuse.

Because this is an obvious moral kidnapping.

Being a dignified Noxus and abandoning its people is tantamount to letting the enemy throw their dignity to the ground and trample on it. More importantly, it will only chill countless people.

If the people are pawns that can be abandoned at will when crisis strikes, then who would dare to serve such a monarch.

Although Noxus has always boasted that it has no moralism.

But after all, the country is big, and we all have some idol baggage, so we still have to save face.

At this time, this was not what Demir was thinking of.

"Are you going to let these people put on armor and go fight against Demacia?"

His eyes narrowed slightly and he said to himself.

This is the method given by the Immortal Fortress to stop losses, allowing these prisoners of war who have lost their hometowns to wear cheap armor and fight for the country.

Their enemy was naturally Demacia, who had already attacked them once.

However, can these old people, children, and women who have no fighting ability be Demacia's opponents even if they wear armor?

Demir naturally knew that the end of these people would be nothing more than cannon fodder.

They just need to rush to the front, and every extra arrow they waste on the enemy will be earned.

"Let this be the arrangement. I have other uses."

After thinking briefly, he waved his hand and gave the order.

After the prisoner exchange, Noxus quickly retreated with the prisoners.
