【ps: Today is the fifth update, two more to go, will be updated soon, please vote more for seven updates a day! 】
The army of the Kingdom of Lot.
A full 80,000 troops marched in a winding manner, as if they could connect the sky and the earth, with spears entering the forest and flags connecting like mountains.
The King of the Kingdom of Lot, Lot IX, sat on his horse, and next to him was his 17-year-old youngest son
“Father, why did you mobilize our entire country’s forces to attack the Kingdom of Los just because Prince Nord sent you a letter?”
“I heard that the Kingdom of Los was badly beaten by the Kingdom of Nord, and there are only a few thousand soldiers left in the army. In this case, the Nord army can handle it alone, so why do they need us?”
Little Prince Lot asked puzzledly.
“I heard that in the last battle, a magician appeared in the Kingdom of Los, and defeated the 50,000-strong army of the Kingdom of Nord with only a thousand men.”
Lot IX replied
“Magician!”
Little Prince Lotte was surprised.
“Father, they have a magician, so why don’t we go?…”
“well…Ragnar’s teacher, Leander of the Gutuns Alliance Empire, is a person who is many times more noble than an ordinary magician…..”
Lot IX sighed, and a bitter look appeared on his face.
Actually, he didn’t want to come, but Prince Nord used the name of his teacher to pressure him.
Leander, the great magician of the Gutongs Union Empire.
Is that someone he can afford to offend?! He made friends with several grand dukes in the Gutongs Union Empire, and only needed a letter to call the Dragon Knight Corps to destroy their country.
That was someone who could recruit dragon knights!
They were just mortals, and their strength was amazing. They were knights, so how could they be the opponents of the dragon knights, who were the lowest and the great knights.
Moreover, the fighting power of the dragon knights was not only the knights themselves, but also the dragons flying in the sky!
Their 80,000 troops might not be enough for a dozen dragon knights to kill.
Lot IX dared not to give face to Ragnar, but he did not dare not to give face to Ragnar’s teacher, Leander.
Moreover, there were only a few thousand troops left in the Los Kingdom. Lot IX estimated that their 80,000 troops would just give face to Ragnar, and at most line up beside to wave flags and cheer.
Just think of it as paying for your own army to go on a trip. As for the military expenses, the treasury property accumulated by the Kingdom of Lot for hundreds of years is nothing.
Ragnar is nothing, but if you can please Leander, and it would be best if you can accept his youngest son as an apprentice, then you will make a lot of money.
Then their Kingdom of Lot will rise completely!
Lot IX also has his own thoughts, which is why he brought his youngest son this time.
Not only to let him see the world, but more importantly, in case his youngest son is favored by Leander and accepted as a disciple.
Five days later.
The Kingdom of Nord gathered the remaining troops in the Kingdom of Los and rushed to the town of Sloan first.
The army of the Kingdom of Nord lined up and stationed in the town of Sloan in a show of force.
Ragnar looked at the empty Sloan Town in front of him with a gloomy face. He smiled coldly:”Guyuan, Guyuan, you are really a coward. You actually let all the townspeople evacuate at the beginning.”
Fortunately, Guyuan had the foresight to evacuate all the residents of this generation to Los City first.
Bandits are like combs, and soldiers are like rakes.
The army of this era is really not a good synonym, especially the army of the enemy country.
Usually every time they attack a place, they will burn, kill and loot, which is worse than bandits.
At first, Ragnar planned to massacre all the local residents, but he didn’t expect that they were all evacuated.
This made Ragnar, who had failed, even more angry.
But Ragnar knew that it was useless to be angry now. Ragnar was more looking forward to seeing his wailing appearance after annihilating the Guyuan army.
After waiting for two days, the army of the Kingdom of Lot also arrived.
80,000 troops, the two sides merged together, a total of 110,000 troops
“Prince Ragnar, please take me to say hello to Lord Leander.”
Lot IX said very respectfully when he saw Ragnar.
But his respect was not really for Ragnar.
It was for Leander behind Ragnar.
“Yeah.”
Ragnar nodded and waved his hand:”Let’s go and completely annihilate the army of the Los Kingdom!”
“After the city is captured, I must massacre the entire city to vent my hatred!”
Just as the army was preparing to march to Los City, Ragnar suddenly received a report from a messenger.
“Your Highness, King Los, Guyuan III has sent a letter.
A messenger came to Ragnar and respectfully handed him a letter.
“What? Is King Los going to surrender?”
Lot IX couldn’t help but glance at the letter.
Before he finished speaking, he saw Ragnar laughing as if he had seen a big joke.
“Hahahaha! Gu Yuan really doesn’t know how to live or die, he actually asked me to have a decisive battle on the plains!”
Laughing, Ragnar tore the letter to pieces in an instant!
“Who does he think he is! Fine, if he wants a decisive battle, I will fight him, you ignorant fool!”
Ragnar’s face was grim, and he roared
“A decisive battle in the wild?”
Lot IX was stunned. Is King Los crazy?
He only has a few thousand soldiers. If he defends the city, he can survive for a while, but in a decisive battle in the wild, he will definitely die in less than half a day.
After all, it is a matter of a few thousand against an army of 110,000. Lot IX does not think that the army of the Kingdom of Los can win.
When Lot IX came, he saw that Ragnar also had magicians, who should be the magicians accompanying Leander’s apprentices.
There were even three great knights.
And the knights in their army and the cavalry accompanying the knights, added up to a total of 30,000 cavalry.
What kind of courage did King Los have to dare to fight them on the plains?
Walli Plain.
This is a very open plain, usually a pasture for the Kingdom of Los, but in the previous war with the Kingdom of Nord It was taken away. Although Guyuan later sent American soldiers to take it back, the cattle, sheep, and residents had been burned, killed, and looted by the Nord Kingdom army.
Now it is very suitable for a decisive battle between the armies.
It is even more suitable for cavalry combat! Because it is all plains!
The wind swept away the clouds, and the cold wind blew the overlapping flags like mountains.
The two armies lined up and looked at each other.
If you look down from the sky, you can clearly see the gap between the two sides!
The Nott coalition, a full 110,000 troops spread out on the plain, like a piece of black cloth covering a green cloth!
On the side of the Los Kingdom, the two thousand people are more like a black stain on a green cloth, very inconspicuous and not very noticeable.
The two sides are on the verge of a fight, and the battle is about to break out!
