Lord: Start with the Pioneer Knight

Outside Fengbao Pass, 35,000 men of the 15th Army were ready to go.

The order was issued and the army set off towards Youhu Pass, eighty kilometers away.

On the hill, Weilin stood on the top of the mountain, looking at the marching team below, feeling heroic in his heart.

Youhu Pass is the last of the thirteen passes on the Xiaguan Ancient Road. As long as this pass is conquered, there will be a vast plain behind. With the knights in hand, the Stovia region will be at your fingertips.

Around the low hill, dozens of guards surrounded the place, scanning the surroundings to protect the safety of their lord.

"My lord, according to the report from the spies who broke into Youhu Pass, Warren, the former guard of Youhu Pass, is missing. The person who is now in charge of Youhu Pass is a marquis from the Kingdom of Anza named Edmund Isaac. He There is a low-level Holy Seal knight and a mid-level Holy Seal warrior beside him, which is equivalent to two soul-level combatants. As for whether there are other strong men hiding in the dark, the officer did not find out. "Kyle. When he came to Weilin's side, he bowed and saluted, and opened his mouth to report.

Weilin said: "You will deal with the middle-level warriors of the Holy Seal, and leave the low-level knight of the Holy Seal to me. If there is a third strong man secretly, let your red dragon mount Colclough take action. ”

"If the number exceeds three, then you can only use the ice token."

"My lord, it's more than that." Kyle shook his head and continued, "The combat power of the soul level in this world is naturally weaker than ours. With my current strength, I can't face three mid-level saint seals. A warrior can fight and win."

Verin turned his head and looked at Kyle, who looked confident, and said subconsciously: "Then do I still need to take action?"

"No, you can just command the troops. If that doesn't work, I will release Colclough. With his strength and racial advantages, if he cannot defeat an intermediate Saint Seal warrior, it will be the shame of the Red Dragon. It’s useless, it’s better to kill and eat meat.”

At this moment, Colclough, who was sleeping in a certain piece of angel feathers, felt something. He opened his huge dragon eyes and looked at the white surroundings.

"Is someone concerned about my treasure?"

Talking to himself in the air, Colclough looked around and remembered where this place was. His restless heart calmed down, he closed his eyes and continued to sleep.

A straight-line distance of eighty kilometers, a journey of one hundred and six kilometers, and in less than eight hours, the 15th Army arrived six kilometers away from Youhu Pass.

The sky was dark, and Verin directly ordered the camp to be set up. At the same time, he asked Devonshire to arrange for the Temple Knights of the Crusaders to patrol the surrounding areas and clear out the spies in Youhu Pass.

Late at night, on the wall of Youhu Pass, Edmund led his guards to inspect the wall while observing the situation in the distance.

After taking his uncle's advice, there were only about 80,000 defenders left at Youhu Pass.

In order to prevent the former Youhu Pass guard Warren's subordinates from breaking out into turmoil and defecting to the enemy, and to prevent some betrayers from seizing the gate, Elder could only replace all the guards at the gate with his own troops to prevent any eventuality.

Edmund stood on the wall, stretched his hand out of the wall stack, and wiped the outer wall with force. He looked at the brown rock oil in his hand and rubbed it carefully between his fingers. It had a partial lubricating effect, but not much.

"Is this the only way we can do it?"

Hearing Edmund's inquiry, a Liuyin soldier who was on duty here stepped forward and replied: "Your Majesty, only palm rock oil has the best lubrication effect in the pass, and other oils are difficult to match. In order to prevent the enemy from climbing On the wall, my subordinates have arranged for soldiers to hang a lamp down every fifteen minutes to check the condition of the rock wall. "

"Shorten the time to five minutes and order people to monitor the situation underground to prevent the enemy from digging holes and entering the pass." Edmund took the handkerchief handed over by the guard, wiped off the palm oil in his hand, and gave instructions to the officers on duty. Order.

"Yes, Lord Marquis."

After leaving the wall stack, Edmund came to a secret room inside the wall and saw an old man in white robe sitting in front of the door. He waved his guard to stop, and then walked forward.

Sensing someone approaching, the old man in white robe opened his eyes, saw the person, opened his mouth, and slowly said: "Your Majesty the Marquis."

"Bishop Carmine, can the deployment be completed?" Edmund sat next to the old man in white robe and asked in a low voice.

"The layout has basically been completed, and the forbidden air mark has been activated." At this point, the old man in white robe paused, and then continued, "There is a flaw here, and a mysterious force is eroding the mark. It can last about twenty About five days.”

"That's enough."

Edmund nodded and said, "It's up to you whether you can hold it for seven days. As for whether you can hold it for twenty-five days, you don't need to consider it yet."

After the inspection, Edmund summoned the generals of various ministries individually, giving both kindness and power to ensure that these people would not fall behind during the critical period.

…

In the early morning, the army came out of camp and lined up on the ancient road.

The cold wind was biting, the flags were ringing, and the soldiers' breath condensed into white mist in the cold air.

Youhu Pass is 2,136 meters long and 88 meters high. It is ten meters behind the wall and can deploy 5,000 troops for defense at the same time.

Under the wall, three thousand-man phalanxes in front were formed by the Black Rock Army. They were wearing heavy black armor and holding sharp weapons, and were ready.

After three rounds of bombardment, these three thousand people will serve as the first batch of troops to attack Youhu Pass.

Two kilometers away from Youhu Pass, sixteen large magic cannons and forty medium-sized magic cannons were pushed to the front army. The muzzles were aimed at the pass, waiting for the order to fire.

Seeing the enemy's move, Edmund's expression changed slightly.

In the battle of Leiying Pass, the enemy used this weapon to knock down the wall.

Seeing that the enemy had not made any move, Edmund said in a deep voice: "Uncle Leonard, thank you for your help."

"Master, don't worry, I will hold back the enemy's strong men, you can just send people to fight." The white-haired old man nodded and replied, then jumped down from the wall and rushed towards the enemy.

Under the cover of the forbidden air mark, with the wall of Youhu Pass as the center, within a radius of two kilometers, even a mid-level Saint Seal warrior like him could not fly and could only run on the ground.

"Order the Knights of the Gorge Pass Army to go out of the pass and destroy the enemy's siege weapons."

"Yes, Lord Marquis."

The messenger officer received the order, jumped down from the wall, and ran towards the Gorge Pass Army's station.

In the central army, on the command platform, Kyle looked at the white-haired old man in the distance and replied: "My lord, I'll go first."

"A soul-level combat power of thirty merits, don't let it run away." Weilin looked at the mid-level Saint Seal warrior and reminded him.

Hearing this, Kyle smiled and replied, "Don't worry, my lord. I won't be able to escape from the thirty military achievements."

After that, Kyle's figure disappeared from the command platform.

In an instant, he appeared in front of the army, with a cold look on his face, looking at the white-haired old man.

The cold wind whistled, making people's skin hurt, as if it would freeze people's blood.

The battlefield was dead silent, with only the occasional sound of heavy breathing and the collision of weapons, which added a bit of solemnity.
