Kailim looked at the fortress in front of him expressionlessly, but a feeling of powerlessness arose in his heart. Originally, he thought he could rely on the super mobility of the Clay light cavalry to give the guy named Ryan a victory in the Cassano Plain. After a harsh lesson, I found that the other party had already made arrangements, and the small fortress in front of me was one of the best countermeasures to deal with the harassment of the Clay light cavalry.
Such a small fortress is not very big, and can only accommodate thousands or tens of thousands of people. The fortress is not very high, but the height of three meters is still enough to stop the Clay cavalry, and with a few tall With the lookout point, traces of the Clay tribe can be discovered in advance on the plains, and then the surrounding Cassano people will hide in as quickly as possible, relying on such a small fortress to resist their attacks in Kailimu. , to minimize losses,
When Kailim secretly came to Sike City under the order of Chief Abdul, he heard very bad news. The members of the Southern Freedom Alliance, Freedom Paradise and Mochizuki City, successively fell to the imperial capital. The Clay people wanted to learn from Magic's plan completely failed. This time, after Senat handed over the Mori defense line to Bailey's undead army, he led 100,000 elites across the Valo Mountains at full speed, preparing to storm Cassano, and then planned to go south to recapture Free Paradise and Moon Moon City. Kailimu's 3,000 hoarfrost warriors naturally became the vanguard, and the price they paid for this was that after recapturing Mochizuki City, the Clay people could use the library of this magical city at will.
It's a pity that the small fortresses on the Cassano Plain blocked Kailim's offensive. Because they had to ensure their marching speed, the White Frost Legion from the Clay tribe would definitely not be able to carry any siege equipment, and they The most commonly used hooks and kerosene have met their nemesis. As long as the Clay cavalry approaches these small fortresses, they will get a taste of ballistae. Although these ballistae are far less lethal and range than the elite legions of the imperial capital. Those equipped, but they are simply the best weapons to deal with the Clay cavalry with almost no armor.
Luqman, who was next to Kailim, had veins on his forehead exposed. Just now, one of his childhood playmates took the risk and threw a can of kerosene on the gate of Cassano Fortress. He expected to burn the gate down, but unfortunately he retreated. It was directly cut in two by the crossbow from the opposite side, but the burning kerosene had no great effect, because Cassano's fortress was not a wooden door but an iron door. This little kerosene could not melt the steel at all.
Kailim looked at the soldiers around him and wisely gave the order to retreat. They had been besieging this small fortress for more than an hour, and the black smoke rising straight in the center of the fortress had been burning for an hour. Once thatch mixed with dried horse manure burns, the black smoke is enough to be seen by people dozens of kilometers away. Maybe Cassano's rescue army will soon arrive. Although Kailimu is not afraid Fight, but the 3,000 people in his hands are already the last seeds of the Clay tribe. He cannot take risks.
Lugman once again looked hard at the fortress opposite, as if he wanted to remember it in his heart, then turned around helplessly and called his men to retreat slowly. For safety, Kailimu personally cut off the rear, but the defenders in the fortress He didn't chase them, he just sat back and watched them leave.
It seemed that the army in Kailimu had only been walking for 15 minutes. Thousands of warriors rode horses and galloped from the direction of the Iron Fist Castle. The leader was Roger, the leader of the Windwalking Archer Legion. He and Letoz each guarded the traffic arteries. , in order to prevent the enemy troops from going deep into the Cassano Plain. Today, after seeing the black smoke calling for help, they rushed out in full force, but in the end they still failed.
Roger quickly learned the details of the battle from the fortress guards, and then said to an ordinary popular shooter who was following him: "Sir, we lost 17 people and 33 were injured. The losses are not counted. Big, the enemy has just left less than 20 minutes ago, we can definitely keep them behind if we pursue them now."
The popular shooter was actually dressed up by Ryan. He and Allendo followed Roger and Letoz respectively, just to look for opportunities to take action. However, after carefully understanding that the enemy just now was the light cavalry of the Clay tribe, Ryan shook his head. Shaking his head, he said to Roger: "The Clay tribe's cavalry is very strong. There is no need for us to pursue them closely. Now we have blocked any direction in which they may go deep into the Cassano Plain. They are working on an expedition. If there is no other way, If you replenish food on the spot, you will have no choice but to fight us."
"Well, I understand." Roger nodded. Now there are such fortresses to the east of Cassano. Even if Senat's army presses on the border, it will take some time to pull out such nails, and Ryan and the others will not give it. At such a time as Senat, perhaps before the army of Seike City had time to capture the fortress, the forbidden magic had already fallen from the sky.
"If I'm not wrong, there are only a few places in Senat where troops can be stationed, because there are not many water sources nearby that can support tens of thousands of people drinking water. The only thing I'm worried about now is whether the undead army will be among them. , which is why we are so vigilant. After all, the two legions in his hands were destroyed in my hands last time." Ryan said softly: "Send a team of messengers to contact Allendo and the others and tell them The situation on our side reminds them to pay attention to the Clay clan’s light cavalry.”
Looking at the back of Roger who was carrying out his mission, Ryan fell into deep thought. If Senat dared to invade the Cassano Plain at this time, he must have the means to resist the forbidden magic. Ryan had always suspected that there should be someone in Senat's army. There are a lot of magicians, otherwise they would not be able to hide their whereabouts so well, but no matter how well they hide, people always need to eat and drink, and Cassano has so many water sources that can supply so many people with drinking water. It's even rarer. As long as we sweep them one by one, the hiding places of Senat's army will be found sooner or later.

While Ryan was deep in thought, Allendo was also busy in the other direction. He and Letoz's Windwalker had just annihilated a small group of rangers. This was Senat's scouting force, but after all, they didn't There is no way to compete with the heavily armed dangerous shooters, not to mention there is a legendary strongman inside, so naturally the entire army will be annihilated without any suspense.
"Mr. Allendo, all the prisoners committed suicide. Their teeth were highly poisonous. They were obviously Senat's dead men." Letoz didn't look very good because Allendo wasn't the one who took action just now. Maybe he was also poisoned and died. At first, Letoz thought he had captured a few alive, so he interrogated them in person. Unexpectedly, black blood suddenly spurted out from the bodies of the captured enemies. The few soldiers around Letoz only had a little stain on their skin. He rotted immediately and died painfully in a short period of time. Only Letoz managed to escape with the rescue of Allendo.
"There is no need to keep alive next time. Anyway, there are only a few places where Senat can garrison troops." Allendo said casually. Although the venom just saw blood and sealed the throat, it was aimed at ordinary people. Allendo was originally After being contaminated with the poisonous blood of the ancient monster Hydra, not only did nothing happen in the end, but the power of this blood was stimulated in the battle with the Beast King not long ago, and he gained a powerful recovery ability similar to that of Hydra. Even if the venom is Spraying it on Allen Duo's body is no different from ordinary water.
"Well, I guess Ryan's side has also arrived at the designated place. Letoz, you can send a team of messengers to report the situation here, and remind them to be careful of prisoners." Allendo said lightly: "As for us, Rest on the spot for 2 hours, and then continue moving forward. If everything goes well, we will probably be able to have a main battle with Senat before the afternoon of the day after tomorrow."

"I didn't expect you to be the only son of the Minister of State. Alas, Chad Reeves has always been my idol. He worked hard for this empire, but I didn't expect that he would die under the conspiracy of that guy Luke. , but fortunately, Beile, you met Master Safanas. This is really a good person who is rewarded." Senat held up a glass of bright red wine and tried his best to get closer to Beile.
This time Senat attacked Cassano, and naturally he had already thought about how to deal with Ryan's forbidden spell magic. In the past few years, Safanas had secretly trained him hundreds of shadow wizards. This kind of magician is good at using the power of shadows. , torture their enemies with curses, illusions and other means, and then give them a fatal blow,
Although the strength of these shadow wizards is equivalent to that of an ordinary high-level magician, they are huge in number, as many as 300 people. According to Safanas, these shadow wizards can sacrifice their lives in extreme situations. A powerful force burst out in a short period of time. I believe that the combined force of 300 people is enough to kill Ryan, the forbidden curse mage.
As for Alando and others around Ryan, they were naturally handed over to Bailey and the others. This time Bailey was ordered to come secretly with the claws, silver leaves and others transformed by the dark ritual, just to help Senat seize the card. Sano, once Senat clears this place, whether it is the Northern God City or the South Free Paradise or Mochizuki City, they can quickly open up the situation, and Senat also firmly believes that as long as he also arrives outside Mochizuki City, then the magic on both ends of these heads and rats will The master will definitely fall to him again, which is why Senat tried his best to win over Bailey.
"We are well prepared here, Mr. Senat." Bailey smiled at Senat, but the stitched marks on his face became more ferocious because of it: "You can attract the opponent to attack, so that I can It’s a surprise for them, I hope our friends will like this welcome ceremony, this is a secret technique taught to me personally by my teacher Safanasi.”
"That's great." Senat turned a blind eye to Bailey's terrifying face, with a sincere smile on his face: "Then by the afternoon of the day after tomorrow at the latest, we can see our little friend. I heard that he The women around me are very good. I must experience it well after taking Cassano this time, hehe... "
A smile appeared on Bailey's face, and the disdain in his eyes flashed across his face. Bailey had no good feelings at all for the stubborn, scheming, and lustful guy in front of him. This time It's just a matter of using his power. After all, the secret technique taught by Safanath can only be realized with the help of Senat's power.
"Ryan, Ryan, I'm really feeling conflicted right now." Bailey said secretly in his heart: "Although I hope to kill you and Faras to avenge my parents, it's a pity that I can't do it myself. Well, should I hope that you die tomorrow at the hands of those 300 shadow wizards, or should I hope that you can survive until the day I kill you with my own hands? This is really a headache. "
