The military agreement in the temporary garrison command camp outside the Yamaguchi village stronghold had ended. Yat held a thin note in his hand, and a pigeon cage was placed on the simple wooden table in the corner of the tent.

Ron stood beside him and saw that Yat had read the characters on the note and said, "Master, those two disguised messengers are indeed people from the Earl of Longxia. They have seen you in Longxia City, and can give me the details of my competition with Leonder, the Knight of the Inner House of Flanders."

Yat held the note and nodded slightly, and handed the note to Ron. "This secret letter was written by Sir Leond, who defeated you. After the new king Flander led the Longxia army north to him, the defense of Longxia leader was handed over to him. This time it was he who led the eight hundred mountain civilians left behind Longxia leader to the mountainous area to go north to attract the attention of the Kodor army."

Ron took the note and glanced a few times, "I heard from the messenger that Lord Leonard has been promoted to baron and served as commander of the Left-behind Legion."

Yat stood up and walked slowly in the tent, and put on the cowhide boots of the spurs made a creaking sound.

The content of this secret letter is very simple. The Longxia Mountain Civil Army has attracted the attention of the Kodor Southern Army for the Wells Cordore. Now they have to evacuate, and the rest can only be handled by the Wells Cordore itself.

Flander didn't want the army that directly belonged to him to participate in this battle to break the tranquility and worried that he would not be able to mediate in the future, Yat understood it very well.

However, Flander did not intend to put Yat and Wells completely in a desperate situation. Leoned sent someone to send Yat two carefully trained pigeons. Once the Wells army was dead and could not escape, as long as the flying pigeon asked for help, the Longxia Mountain Civilian Army would rush down the mountain area to rescue.

"Ron, give these two pigeons to Spencer and let him feed them well. I hope we can't use them, but this is our back path and we can't cut it off."

"In addition, the people of Longxia Mountain will withdraw their troops tomorrow, and the foreign Rior army will definitely return to defense immediately, leaving us with little time."

"The army ordered the army to rest tonight, eat in the early morning tomorrow to set off, and the destination Rior County Town."

"Yes!" Ron turned around and went out to pass the order with a dove cage.

............

Rior County City, a gem inlaid on the edge of the southeastern hills of Codor.

Although it is also the first city of a county, Rior is a bit more prosperous and elegant than Tinets. The entire castle's exterior walls are almost made of stones, and the houses and shops in the city are also tall and regular. The wide streets in the center of the city are even paved with stone slabs.

However, affected by the atmosphere of war, the city was also very nervous. There were few merchants and pedestrians on the castle streets. The castle walls were covered with armored guard soldiers, and the gates could not be closed.

It was obviously the consequence of the infamous reputation of the Longxia mountain people.

Since the Longxia mountain people suddenly appeared on the edge of the mountainous area, most of the garrisons in Leo County were transferred to the border to confront each other. At this moment, only sixty elite infantry and one hundred newly armed peasant soldiers were left in the county town.

When the defenders of Rior City were all looking at the direction of the southwest Longxia Mountains, a cavalry dressed in the burqa of the Cordore army appeared on the high hurdle half a mile east of Rior City.

The guards of the county city, staring at the southwest, staring at the arrow tower of the east wall of the county city, whose eyes were almost wide open, glanced east unconsciously, and suddenly found a team of more than ten cavalry outside the east of the city, stopping and observing the direction of the county city.

The guards exclaimed, "There is an enemy situation! There is an enemy situation!" Then they kept pulling the cuffs of the guards beside them.

The guards beside him had obviously discovered the team not far from the east of the city, and they squinted their eyes and looked at the team with their forehanded eyebrows.

After observing for a while, the guard put down his right hand on his brow, "Hi, fuss, that's our man. They just circled around the northeast of the city for half a circle."

The guard who exclaimed was a little suspicious, "Our people? Why are our people doing sneaky there? Go down and report to the whistleman!"

"Why don't you go? The arrow tower is so high, do you think you are not tired of climbing up and down? You go by yourself." Another guard refused sternly.

"Then forget it~ I'm my own person anyway."

The two defenders slacked off from each other.

But just as the two defenders refused, a team mainly carriages appeared in their sight...

Ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ~

A rapid alarm bell rang over the city of Rior...

............

In front of the team, Jafar, deputy captain of the Legion's cavalry, led several light cavalry to the front of Yat, the leader of the team, and tied the reins. "Sir, the cavalry team has already explored. There are indeed not many defenders in the city of Rior. There are at most one hundred people on the walls on all sides, and there are probably only a hundred defenders in the city."

"We have confirmed again that the fallow land in the northeast of the city is very hard and the carriage can pass smoothly."

Yatie looked around and kicked the horse's belly and ran towards a slightly higher terrain. Ron led the guards to follow him.

Stop and look at the city of Rior, at this time, the warning began. More and more soldiers were deploying defenses on the east wall of the city, and the figure of the crossbowman could be vaguely seen.

"Send an order! The legion cavalry team went to the castle with one arrow and was ready to resist the enemy soldiers out of the city at any time; the rest of the teams quickly walked around Rior from the northeast to the north." Yat issued a military order.

After a while, the deputy commander of the Legion, Angus, personally led a cavalry team of more than fifty cavalrymen to leave the marching line, lined up the cavalry line and approached northeast of Rior. He reached more than 300 steps outside the city and stopped and confronted the defenders at the top of the city.

At the same time, the soldiers who were originally riding in the carriage also jumped down and set up arrays in the open space next to the road outside the east of the city.

However, when the Rior City defenders were sifting the chaff waiting for the enemy to launch a sudden attack, the army was marching off the fallow land northeast surrounded by more than fifty carriages.

The defenders of Rior City thought that the enemy was going to attack the North City, so they immediately adjusted their deployment. The crossbowmen and infantry on the East City were driven to the north city wall to prepare for the battle.

When the Rior defenders were already holding their weapons with the determination to defend the castle, an accident happened again - the army that was in line passed through the fallow land and walked around the north road, then jumped onto the carriage, and ran towards the north.

The shadow of the carriage had just disappeared on the northern road, and the dozens of cavalrymen three hundred steps northeast of the city also turned their horses and followed them...

The defenders of Rior City were stunned. They didn't know what to do for a moment, so they could only stand at the head of the city and stare at the north in a daze.

"Oh no! The enemy is going to raid our hinterland!" Someone screamed and screamed...

............

Yat had no intention of capturing Rior, and had no intention of capturing this place from the beginning.

If the Wells Legion accepted the order to capture Codor, Naat must capture Rior step by step and then Lapas, and then go north to conquer all the major traffic routes and throat strongholds along the way.

However, the raid war is not a conventional war to erode the enemy's territory. At this time, Yat does not need a stable rear support for the front line to fight, so in order to insert the sharp blade into Kodor's confidant as soon as possible, he must give up those difficult strongholds, and if he can, he will surround it.

So when Rior's defenders reacted, Yat had already led the Wells Legion to run a long distance on a bicycle and horse.

"How is it? Are the defenders of Rior City chasing out?" Yat asked Angus, who had returned from the back line while controlling his horse.

Angus rode on the horse and took off his wine bag and drank two drinks. "The bastards just realized that they sent about twenty cavalry to chase them, and were beaten back by Lusinion. Kill the three cavalry of Lefang, and we died one of them ourselves."

This ending was not expected by Yat. Rior would definitely send someone to chase after him symbolically, otherwise they would not be able to escape the charge of involuntizing the enemy. "Okay! You continue to lead the cavalry team to the back to mount the formation, and if there is a pursuer, it will be defeated directly."

Angus agreed to turn his horse and run towards the marching team.

Yat glanced at the Wells Army soldiers riding in a chariot beside him, looked at the road leading to the north of Lapas, and said to Ron Ling: "Ron, go to the front of the team to tell Odo, who is the leader, so that he can speed up his pace. Tonight we will get a rest at the northern border of the two counties."

"Also, you immediately let the horse go north and sneak into Marsey City, telling the contingent lurking in the city to prepare for the response..."

............

Although the provinces of Kodor and Lucesen are close to the border, the two border territories have almost no connection due to the north-south mountain range from Besanson to the north to Sapu Fort.

The reason why it is "almost" is definitely not absolute.

This exception is Marsey.

If we mention the battle history of the Wells Legion, the battle between the Western Army in Tignets County and Thorne Province is definitely worth remembering.

When Count Bernard secretly dispatched a Western army to lightly cross the western mountainous areas of Luces-Nehl Province to raid Tignes, taking the mountain road in Marsey.

Marsey is located at the foothills on the western side of the mountain range. On the east side of Marsey, there is a winding and rugged mountain road leading to the southern part of Luces-N.

The most critical part of Atte's "lightning raid" is to occupy Marsey. If you carefully observe the sand table and draw the map, you will find that Marsey is very close to Diguan Town, and is the best enclave to attack Hudiguan Town, the southern part of the Kodor city.

Moreover, Marsey is located on the edge of the mountainous area, with a dangerous terrain, easy to defend and difficult to attack. The most important thing is another rugged road behind Marsey that leads to Lucesen.

This path is definitely not suitable for large-scale military marching, but it is absolutely fine to use it to escape.

Since it is a dangerous place and a road where the enemy of Codor Province Lucesen may send troops, it is naturally very strict to defend it, and it is almost impossible for the Wells Legion to capture the place without carrying heavy attacking equipment.

The strongest fortresses are often broken from the inside.

Yat, who had long planned to open a southern hunting ground, has certainly planted nails in Marcia...

"Ah snee~Who is talking about me?" Stanley rubbed his nose and applied the snot to the stone on the wall of Fort Marsey.

After applying his nose, Stanley turned around and shouted at Oliver and Millers who were carrying the willow basket of stones on the stone stairs of the fort wall, "You guys, lift all the stones up, don't be lazy! I'll take your wages today."

Seeing that several of his "forced workers" had accelerated their pace, Stanley turned his head with satisfaction, and then took a beer bag from his waist and handed it to the Fort Marsey defender officer who was supervising the wall of the fort. "Thank you for your hard work, commander, you are so hot. You can drink a beer to relieve the heat."

The defending officer obviously had Stanley's flattery and smiled and took the wine bag and took a sip, "Yeah! This beer is good!"

"If you like it, I'll give it to you!" Stanley waved his hand, and the officer hung the wine bag around his waist.

Stanley glanced at the steep terrain outside the fort wall, "Mr. Commander, your military fortress is already strong enough, so it is necessary to reinforce it. Especially people, even monsters will find it difficult to climb the fort wall."

The officer just got the benefits and his attitude was naturally close. "Brother, since Lord Baron hired you to repair and strengthen the castle, it is his reason. This is the only passage for Lucesen to attack Kodor in the enemy's territory. We must be more concerned..."
