Start as Inherited Baroness

After a while, Simon met Adela.

She first glanced at the Courage Guards, her eyes full of shock, then came back to her senses after a moment and whispered: "Segol, that idiot, has sent out troops.

I didn't expect that he would really dare to take the initiative to provoke a war. Two direct barons responded to his call and led troops to join the expedition.

However, the other five direct barons are willing to help us, and are now leading their troops to gather in Muye Territory."

"Have you found out the marching route of Seger's army?" Simon asked after nodding slightly.

"No, but I have three griffins. With aerial reconnaissance, their movements will be clear at a glance.

Wait for the news." Adela smiled confidently.

"Okay!" Simon also smiled, but he was thinking about the three griffins in his heart. This thing is very useful.

Ivna Mild has already made the black fire potion. Because it is mixed with some alchemical materials, it is very expensive.

A can the size of a human head costs hundreds of golden eagles, but this thing has a very good explosion effect.

Just this one can, if it explodes, can destroy half of Yongyi Castle, which is much stronger than the high explosive TNT.

If it is equipped with a griffin, it is simply a bomber, which can strike the enemy with a dimensionality reduction. In the era of cold weapons, no one can withstand it.

However, the royal family has hundreds of griffins, and Simon has no air superiority, so this thing must be kept strictly confidential for now.

Otherwise, if the Bavarian royal family knows about it, they will definitely discover the great value of black gunpowder.

Simon's current body can't withstand this kind of pressure, so he can only show off his power in the border areas.

Afterwards, Simon and Adela discussed for a while and felt that those direct barons were unreliable and only helped a few people.

So they decided not to wait for the direct barons' army, set off in advance, and occupy several key positions.

The northwest direction of Muye Territory is Shanshui Territory, and passing through here is the closest road from Changxiang Territory to Yongyi Territory.

And this territory is now also Simon's fiefdom. There is a mountainous area over there, which just happens to be on the main valley road.

It is a natural place to deploy troops.

Two days later, Simon led his army to Shanshui Territory and looked at the undulating mountains from afar.

He had actually walked here several times and was quite familiar with the area.

The mountains here are not dangerous at all, nor are they high. They are only two or three hundred meters on average and look relatively flat.

The mountains are bare and not suitable for ambushes.

However, it is always more advantageous to set up camps in valley passages and mountains than to set up camps on flat ground.

"Shelt, you lead five knights and a division of the East Guard Corps to set up camps in the valley to block the passage.

Sarit, you lead the remaining soldiers of the East Guard Corps to set up camps in the mountains in the southeast to guard the right wing.

Hilde, you lead the West Guard Corps and station with me on the mountains on the left side of the valley...

And the soldiers of the five barons of you, Somier, are also with me."

After Simon rode a griffin to look at the surrounding terrain, he summoned the knights to make arrangements.

Adela led her army to station on the gentle slope of the mountains in the northeast, so that the three parties formed a horn.

After a few days, Simon rode a griffin every day to scout the terrain around and flew hundreds of miles to the southeast to scout the enemy.

The three griffin knights under Adela did the same, but the direction of the scout was different.

After a painstaking investigation, they finally found the traces of an army after a few days.

It was Simon who discovered it himself. The enemy army stretched for seven or eight miles, with almost 30,000 people and about a thousand cavalrymen.

These cavalrymen were all riding two horses, probably the remaining two thousand war horses of the Sword Legion.

"Commander! A griffin knight was found in the sky!" The enemy troops below soon discovered Simon and reported to the upper levels.

"Don't worry, march as usual." Deldy Ivan, the current commander of the Sword Legion, ordered in a deep voice.

"Yes!" After the guards left, he shook his head gently and sighed.

Deldi didn't support Prince Seger's action at all, but he couldn't persuade him.

If it weren't for the personal relationship in the family, he would have even wanted to leave. Seger couldn't help him at all.

When he was in Eagle City before, this guy was drunk with money and sex, how could he deal with the battle in this border area? It was completely the case that those who obeyed would prosper and those who disobeyed would perish.

It was straightforward, but it must be supported by hard power.

"Alas! Seger, Seger!

Don't you see what is happening in Changxiang Territory now? The armor of the Protector Corps is gone, but they dare to go on a long expedition..."

Deldi complained in his heart without hesitation, and his face could not hide his resentment.

Simon, who was flying in the sky, naturally didn't know the commander's psychological activities. He wandered around for a few rounds, saw the enemy's equipment, and then went back.

He found that more than 10,000 people in this army were not wearing armor, but only simple cloth armor, and the others were mostly leather armor and iron-studded leather armor.

It's not that there are no elite troops, but it looks like there are only about 7,000 to 8,000 people, which should be the remaining troops of the Sword Legion.

Simon was relieved. With such a level of army, Xia Ji could win with eight cuts!

Not long after, he returned to the camp.

"Malan, gather the knights. I have found Seger's army. At their marching speed, they will be here in about three days.

Let everyone get ready and go all out. The enemy has about 30,000 people."

Simon let the griffin go and have fun, and walked towards the big tent while giving orders.

"Yes! Sir!" Mailan took the order and left.

Soon, the knights in the main positions gathered in the tent.

"Segol's army is coming. This time, Sarit will be in charge of the command. Let's work together to drive him back home!"

"Yes! I am willing to die for you!" the knights shouted.

"Okay, next, let Sarit arrange a detailed battle plan for you..." Simon nodded and smiled.

He would definitely not rashly command such a large army to fight. He would observe and learn from the side first.

Simon had never been exposed to military affairs before, and he was not a military academy student before crossing. It was inevitable that he would make many mistakes when he first started.

Mistakes on the battlefield would cost many lives to make up for. He should learn from him for a while and then try again.

And this battle is very critical, and the victory or defeat is extremely important. There is no room for carelessness and slackness.

"Yes! Sir Earl!" Sarit took the order and immediately began to arrange combat tasks.

His commander was not the best, but according to the data of the Three Kingdoms, he was at least 91.

In the blink of an eye, it was a few days later.

On this day, Prince Seger's army appeared on the horizon, and by noon, they were at the foot of the mountain.

Sarit's deployment was very conservative. The army set up a solid camp in the valley, and there were also strongholds on the mountains on both sides.

It can be said to be impregnable.

If Seger wants to pass through here, he must attack the mountain by force.

After careful observation, they wandered at the foot of the mountain for a while, retreated five miles, and set up camp...
