Dazzling bright light shot up into the sky, and a purple sun appeared in the dark night sky. Under the influence of this powerful magic, billowing heat waves mercilessly impacted in all directions. As long as anyone came into contact with this heat wave, they would wear Their clothes and armor will melt in an instant, followed by their skin, flesh, and bones...
When the heat wave hit, even Vivian, Adela and others wearing Ryan's special armor were not immune. The entire top of the Iron Fist Castle was razed to the ground by the powerful magic. When it was all over, There was only Catherine's triumphant laughter in the sky,
"No." Ryan suddenly sat up from the felt. He opened his eyes and was about to pounce on Catherine desperately, but found himself in the tent. Ryan calmed down and then recalled that he had followed Orlando into the tent. It has been a month in the prairie. Obviously, the screams that happened in Cassano should have been in Ryan's dream.
Ryan took a deep breath and tried to calm down his emotions. He slowly put on his coat, opened the door curtain and walked out. It was already midsummer, so the temperature outside did not make people feel any chill. , Ryan first looked at the eastern sky and found that it was already slightly white. Obviously the sun was about to rise, and a new day was coming soon.
Ryan turned his attention to the southwest, which was the direction of his second hometown of Cassano. Although Ryan missed his parents, wife, and Vivian very much, he did not let his thoughts wander. Fly, because he has a very important thing to do today, which is to sneak attack on the Clay tribe's camp at Mirror Lake.
In order to avoid Chief Abdul's main force, Ryan and his Windwalking Archer Legion must set off three hours in advance. They will first circle dozens of kilometers to the south, and then run towards Mirror Lake to wait until the main force of the Clay tribe When the troops stormed the expeditionary camp, Ryan and the others would attack the Mirror Lake Camp to cooperate with Orlando's counterattack.
"Wait for me, I will be back soon. No one here can stop me, no." Ryan said this while looking in the direction of Cassano with a firm expression, and then he turned around without hesitation. Walking towards the camp where Fengxing Archer is stationed,
When half of the smiling face of the sun appeared at the junction of the sky and the earth in the east of the prairie, Ryan led 4,500 Fengxing archers and set off. During the month of entering the prairie, 5,000 Fengxing archers fought against the Clay tribe's Hundreds of people were lost in the battle, minus some who were seriously injured and could not run with the army. These 4,500 people are the current total combat power of Fengxing Shooter.
They fought continuously for a month but suffered little loss. On the one hand, these popular shooters received strict training from the Moon Temple guard Seres and others from the elves, and their own quality was very high. On the other hand, it was because Ryan did not hesitate to spend money. Equipped with a full set of magic items for them, even Orlando is quite envious of this, because there are currently armies fully armed with magic items on the entire continent. In addition to the Royal Knights, Cassano's three were built by Ryan himself. of troops,
Seeing Ryan riding away with the Windwalking Archers, Orlando turned to Jonas and said, "Okay, let's get started."
Jonas solemnly gave Orlando a military salute and left quickly, while Orlando turned and walked into his military tent. All the captains of the Royal Knights had been waiting there. After seeing the captain Orlando After entering, we immediately saluted together.
Orlando returned a salute and said: "For this moment today, we have been waiting on the prairie for a month and in the imperial capital for 4 years. The glorious Royal Knights will once again defeat the enemy in front of it, just as Like that for the past 200 years.”
"Honor is my life." Everyone answered in unison, holding their right fists close to their chests.

"Report, our leading troops have advanced 10 kilometers and no trace of the enemy has been found." A Clay scout shouted loudly,
Chief Abdul sat high in his car and waved his hand casually, signaling the scout to leave. As the leader of the Clay tribe, Chief Abdul did not ride a horse, but chose this kind of method. It is a human-driven carriage with 20 wheels. The space above is also huge, enough to accommodate more than ten people. At this time, only Kailim, Lugman and a few close friends were sitting on it.
Chief Abdul didn't speak after hearing the scout's report. He just kept looking at the map hanging on the side of the car. Instead, it was Luqman who spoke first: "Strange, our camp is 20 kilometers away from the enemy." , now that our army is more than halfway forward, why can't we find any trace of them? Could it be that they... "
"If I guess correctly, the Imperial Capital Expeditionary Force should have chosen to stay in the main camp." Kailimu suddenly spoke,
"Not bad." Chief Abdul pointed to the direction of march and said: "There are plains everywhere here. Our Clay cavalry is invincible here. The army in the imperial capital is basically infantry. Even if they are very powerful, But once they leave the camp, they will be shot by us with bows and arrows in turn. Even the powerful Royal Knights could not only hate the prairie."
"What should we do?" Lugman asked.
"Humph, since they refuse to come out, then we will kill them." Chief Abdul said with a sneer: "Immediately pass the order and inform the entire army. The imperial army is too timid to fight and has chosen to retreat and defend. Now We used superior forces to overwhelm them and completely annihilate these invaders."
After the herald left, Kailim whispered in Chief Abdul's ear: "Master Chief, is there any conspiracy among the Imperial Capital Expeditionary Force?"
Chief Abdul laughed loudly and said to Kailim: "That doesn't matter, because our army is far stronger than the enemy. As long as we don't make mistakes, what can they do? And our army is all cavalry. Even if there is a war, What a turning point, with the mobility of our army, we can quickly escape from the battle. Since we are already in an invincible position, there is nothing to worry about."
"However, if the Imperial City Expeditionary Force chooses to retreat and defend in order to attract our army to attack us in large force, and then divides its troops to sneak attack on our back..." Kailimu said with some worry,
"Haha, Kailim, you are worrying too much." Chief Abdul said in a positive tone: "The Imperial Capital Expeditionary Force is not large in number. If they divide their forces, it will be useless if they have a small number of people. If they have a large number of people, they will not be able to protect themselves. What's more, they want to It will take at least 4 hours to run around Mirror Lake, and by that time, I’m afraid we will have already captured their camp.”
"Yes, they want to sneak attack our camp, unless they have wings and fly over Mirror Lake." Lugman also echoed loudly,
Seeing that Chief Abdul's words made sense, Kailim stopped paying attention. In a short time, Chief Abdul's order spread throughout the entire Clay army, and 450,000 people gathered there. The sound of cheers suddenly resounded throughout the land. Chief Abdul pointed with his hand in the direction of the Imperial Capital Expeditionary Force camp and issued an order for the entire army to attack.
450,000 war horses immediately started running wildly. The dust they raised covered the sun in the sky, and the flat earth also shook violently. Chief Abdul looked at all this with great ambition and said loudly: "The true God will protect you, after today , our Clay tribe will rise again.”

At the same time, in the expeditionary camp, Orlando stood quietly in front of a wooden stake inserted into the ground. The weather was very good today. As long as he looked at the shadow of the wooden stake, Orlando could easily judge the current time. Next to the wooden pile, there is a large wooden barrel filled with water. The water surface is as calm as a mirror.
Suddenly, there was a slight ripple on the water surface in the barrel. The ripple swayed gently. Before it disappeared, a second ripple appeared on the water surface. Orlando looked at the projection of the wooden pile and saw roughly After estimating the time, he found that the Clay army arrived almost an hour earlier than he expected. Apparently Chief Abdul couldn't wait any longer.
The clear water in the big wooden barrel became more and more messy, and finally started to ripple. By this time, the battle flag of the Clay tribe could be seen fluttering in the wind to the west of the camp. The weather today was quite clear, and the sun started to rise. It was rising in the east, and it was still morning. The Clay army came from the west, just in time to meet the dazzling sunshine. Unexpectedly, Chief Abdul did not wait until noon and directly attacked with his army.
At this time, the expeditionary force had long been prepared. A trench 5 meters wide and 3 meters deep was dug overnight around the entire expeditionary force camp, and the soil from the trench was piled into a solid bunker on the inside of the trench. The expeditionary force The warriors will rely on this one-meter-high bunker to fight the enemy. If the Clay warriors want to engage in close combat with the expeditionary force, they must jump over the 5-meter-wide trench on horseback, and then use their own flesh and blood to The body crashed into the steel shield wall composed of countless spears,
Of course, Orlando deliberately left two exits on the side of the expeditionary force camp without digging trenches. All large-scale horses were placed here to prevent the Clay cavalry from charging here. Orlando's Royal Knights The regiment only has 5,000 people and is well-trained. As long as it forms a close formation, it can pass here quickly. If the Clay cavalry attacks here in a close formation, they will taste the power of Thomas's crossbow shooters. anger,
The 450,000 Clay warriors formed a formation several kilometers away from the expeditionary camp without any scruples. They dispersed the team without even releasing the security troops. Chief Abdul sat in the center, and Clay The most elite "White Frost" and "Cuiyu" troops of the tribe were placed here, while other real warriors who had received military training were placed on the right wing. The herdsmen gathered together with the summons order All were placed on the left wing,
