ps: On the last day of the double monthly pass, after holding back 5,000 words, the emperor is here to ask all book friends for tickets! Any ticket will do!

In February, the snow had not disappeared and the weather was still very cold, but Ryan had ordered the territory to mobilize on a certain scale. Crazy Sand Literature Network

Hundreds of tents have been set up, and the remaining soldiers have also set up camps one by one under the order of the sergeant. The food transported from Lane's territory has been continuously imported into the camp, and the war mobilization is in progress.

At present, the mobilized population is basically the industrial and commercial population, especially free people. Lane hopes that this advance attack will not affect the agriculture of his territory as much as possible, so he will try to recruit as few agricultural population as possible. In this context, he only recruited There were about 2,000 infantry, and they were basically semi-professional troops, and Poldero and Winford also sent a large number of knights and a part of the standing army to commander Ryan. The commander of Poldero was Federmond. Baron De, Wynford's commander is Sir Jarrod, and they all obey Ryan.

The Lake God Witch Morgiana led an entire Lake God Prophet Squad and a team of Holy Grail Guards to the front line. Theresa and Aurora and their mother and daughter were also stationed in the camp with the entire Ice Witch Apprentice Group. It was Ryan's magical power in this war, and Veronica was on standby in Ryan's territory. If Ryan needed her help, Witch Garland would come to the front line.

Belgar, the king of the Angland clan, also led the dwarf army to the camp. Belgar only brought more than 800 people this time, including Angland's sworn guards and the famous North Star Axe Corps and the Brotherhood of Steel. As well as a squad of rangers and a squad of musketeers, the rest are artillery.

The Iron Crusher Warriors of Norviglin and Dugan's Black Powder Brotherhood, hired by Lane, also arrived at the camp.

The forest was covered with heavy snow and turned into a white patch. It was very cold in the Sharon Forest. Ryan was wearing a white bear skin cloak, and he was patrolling the camp.

"Count, we have gathered more than 5,000 people to the frontline camp so far." Holy Grail Knight Armand, Ryan's flag-bearer followed Ryan, he said: "Five kilometers north is the Grismore River, as long as Crossing the river, not far from the other side of the river is the Palace of Spires."

"Yeah." Ryan nodded, thinking about the current situation: "The Earl of Ocasson probably hasn't found out that we are gathering troops here?"

"Not yet, the Earl of O'Cathon has been alerted to our movements. He sent many scouts and sentries to guard the key points of the Gresmory River. If we cross the river on a large scale, he will immediately send the army. Transfer back to the Palace of the Spire." Armand continued: "Our dwarf brothers have already calculated, even if Ms. Teresa can help us smuggle, the number cannot exceed 100."

"One hundred people, that's enough." Ryan focused his eyes on the skyline, and he took a deep breath: "Baron Federmond and Sir Gerald will come with us, Armand, you are ready. Is it?"

"Where the earl's sword goes, that's where I, Armand, go!" Armand held the banner with the coat of arms of the Ryan family.

"Very well, let's find an opportunity." Ryan nodded: "Sir Bertrand and the two half-elf Estelle and Dess have sneaked across the Gresmory River, let's wait for the opportunity."

All kinds of supplies were urgently deployed in the entire camp, preparing for war.

After waiting from the morning of the first day to the afternoon of the second day, Sir Bertrand and the two half-elf rangers finally brought back the news that Ryan wanted: "Count, we have news that tomorrow Earl of O'Cathon will lead his The valet are going to hunt in the wilderness near the Spire Palace! This is a routine winter hunt!"

"Very good, get ready to act!" Ryan immediately ordered, and within the entire camp, the eighty knights he selected responded immediately. The Holy Grail Knight Federmond was holding the golden sea monster cross helmet, and the Holy Knight Sir Gerald was holding Wearing the silver unicorn cross helmet is ready.

Ryan found the Aurora mother and daughter who were resting in the corner of the camp: "Ms. Aurora, Teresa?"

A luxuriously dressed Aurora nodded. She didn't say much. The witch of the sanctuary began to sing a great spell. Teresa led the entire witch apprentice group to recite the spell with Aurora and began to cast the spell.

The witch of the lake **** Morgiana also led the prophets of the lake **** to sing spells, and layers of auras appeared on the eighty knights headed by Ryan.

The action begins!

Eighty knights were fully armed, and they all strengthened the seven or eight kinds of life spells of the witch of the lake **** every week. Taking advantage of the night, this knight team came to the river bank in the dark.

At three o'clock in the morning, the turbulent but extremely filthy Grismore River was covered with a layer of ice floes, with flowing river water below.

The sorceress Teresa rides on a half-blood elf warhorse, chanting ice magic.

The river water starts to freeze and becomes more solid.

Ser Bertrand was wearing a warm animal skin cloak, a three-cornered hat with two feathers on his head, and a large Starfire bow made by wood elves, and he reported to two half-elf rangers. Condition: "Earl, we have cleared the sentry on the other side of the river. Earl O'Cathon and his army will not find out about our movements for a while, but the disappearance of the sentry will still cause vigilance on the other side of the river."

"Enough is enough, please, Bertrand, Estelle, Dais." Ryan rode on the pure-blooded elf war horse Grape, and encouraged the three of them: "If this operation is successful, the military merits will be awarded. There will be a part of you."

He couldn't ride a griffin in this operation. The target of the griffin was too big and too conspicuous.

"It's my honor to serve for the count." Bertrand lowered his head and said, "Now, let me lead the way for you."

"Very good! Let's go!"

The ice layer on the river became extremely strong under the action of magic. As the three Bertrands mounted their horses, Ryan immediately led eighty knights to ride directly through the ice layer and quickly.

Five minutes later, after confirming that all the knights had passed, Teresa immediately stopped casting spells. Without the support of magic, the solid ice layer soon gradually thinned under the impact of the river water, returning to its previous fragile state.

The sorceress looked at the direction where Ryan and others were leaving. She didn't pause for too long. Teresa got on the horse, and she wanted to rush back to the camp to assist Aurora in casting spells.

This great spell will be the key to determining the outcome of the surprise attack!

…………I am the dividing line of crossing the river in the early morning…………

Early in the morning, the lord of the Spire Palace, the Earl of Okason woke up from his sleep.

Unlike many undead lords in Musilon, Okason is a human in the true sense. He has always refused to become a vampire, and for some reason, whether it is the blood-red duke who ruled Musilon before, or the middle is responsible for controlling the situation. The Lich King Arkhan, or the "Viper" Matthew Bard, who is now in charge, did not force the Earl of Ocasson to be converted into a vampire.

Because of the special status of the Earl of Ocasson, he may be one of the very few. From the aristocrats of the first generation of Duke Mousillon "Victor" Randuin, there is a clear family tree that has been passed down to the present Mousillon nobles.

This is really commendable, because after Musillon suffered three major disasters, the local nobles either switched to Leonasse or died or were transformed into vampires. Because of this, the Earl of Ocasson became a It is the object that Brittany and the vampires need to strive for, that is, the so-called "setting a model", and the undead want to prove it through the case of Earl Ocasson.

It is precisely because of this that Ocasson has been highly valued by vampires since he came to Musilon, not only giving him a title of earl, but also giving him two thousand troops stationed in the Spire Palace, which is an important southern part of Musilon. stronghold.

The Spire is a well-maintained ancient castle dating back to its central spiral staircase with a hall and several bedrooms. Okason himself lived at the top of the tower, while most of his attendants lived in the basement.

The Earl of O'Cathon set up stables nearby to look after himself and the mounts of individual knights. The interior of the castle is elegantly decorated and is more suitable for entertaining guests than defending against foreign enemies.

There is a lot of furniture and even the rooms full of antiques, and the prominent Ocasson coat of arms is everywhere.

It is worth noting that there are several exquisite tapestries hanging in the castle, which depict the historical stories of Mousillon, such as the heroic victory over the necromancers by the first Duke Mousillon, "Victor" Randuin, which was apparently chosen to be ignored.

There was a vigorous flame burning in the fireplace. Every night after the sun went down, the serfs would give a sumptuous dinner to the residents of the tower. Count Okason washed his face with clean water under the service of his servants. The Count intends to go out for a winter hunt today.

Winter hunting is a custom here, and it is also a means for the lord to show his authority and control. Earl Okason has ruled the Spire Palace for many years, and he conducts winter hunting every year.

This Musilon nobleman was very worried about the recent developments in the south. His subordinates reported many times, saying that the southern earl of Lane had been recruiting a huge army to attack Musillon.

If Ryan wants to attack Musilon, then the Spire Palace will be the first to attack, which is a recognized fact in the entire kingdom.

For this reason, Earl Ocasson is also very anxious, and now he is also thinking about what he should do.

There is a secret in Okason's heart, a secret that cannot be told to anyone.

He was the last king of knights, the "tyrant" John II sent undercover to Musillon. The brutal king of knights had planned to conquer Musillon for a long time. In order to implement his plan, John II sent only ten people at the time. A few years old Ocasson came to Mousillon.

As a former Musilon nobleman, Okasen had a natural advantage, he was quickly appreciated by the Red Duke and successfully entered the top ranks of Musillon.

Ocasson once thought that he could play a role soon enough to make a huge contribution to John II's recovery of Musillon, to restore his glory and become a hero of the kingdom.

In the first year of Musilon, he secretly reported to John II: "My king, I have successfully joined the ranks of the undead nobles."

"Very well, dear Okason, hold on."

In the third year, Ocasson, who had become a knight commander, secretly reported to John II: "My king, I have assembled a loyal human deployment, ready to cooperate with each other at any time."

"You've done a very good job, Okason, and when it's done, I'll make you a baron!"

In the sixth year, Ocasson reported to John II again: "My king, when will the war of chivalry be launched to recover Musillon?"

"Wait, now is not the time!"

Ocasson had to continue to wait, and what he was waiting for was the news that John II was pulled from the throne by the lake **** witch Morgiana and the Holy Grail Knights rushed into the palace, and the throne was deposed.

After hearing this news, Okason was like falling into an ice cellar, and John II was the only person who knew his undercover! After the king was deposed and ordered to be secretly taken into custody by Morgiana, no one could prove Okasson's undercover identity. subordinate!

There is no purpose in life.

With the disappearance of his life goals, what followed was Okason's personal ambitions. After he got rid of the shackles, he began to truly surrender to the vampires and became a vampire's subordinate. Fleeing slaves and accepting people's hearts, whether it is the Red Duke, Arkhan or Matthew Bard, they all regard Ocasson as a model for establishing an undead empire to keep the living and the dead living in harmony after conquering the kingdom of knights, and they have never been. Begrudgingly rewarded, under the guidance of the blood knights, Okason was successfully promoted to the legendary powerhouse.

He began to enjoy the feeling of being on both sides of the two forces. He was the living, but he was the subordinate of the dead. The living recognized him, and the dead needed him.

In this dark age, he Ocasson has to achieve his own great cause.

Started, had breakfast, and summoned the retinues to assemble. Earl Ocasson put on his armor, mounted his horse, and prepared for winter hunting. Dozens of knights and knight retinues, as well as more than 200 serf infantrymen, had assembled. .

The sky in the distance was very clear, and it seemed that it would be a typical sunny day in winter. Okason looked at the clear sky and nodded with satisfaction. It would be a good weather for winter hunting.

Oh, I said three years, three years after three years, three years after three years, and now it's been more than 30 years, boss! Dear John II, my king, have you seen it? I'm already a count! Who cares about your Baron title?

Okason looked at his huge winter hunting team, bright knight armor, the Earl of the Spire Palace only felt satisfied, this is what he wanted, wait until the Lich King Arkhan and Duke Matthew Bard conquer the entire knight kingdom , he is also a founding member of the country, what kind of duke title should be better at that time?

Think about it carefully.

So what if the Lich King and Mathubad were defeated? When Okason thought of it, he could immediately jump back. He could surrender openly on the basis of his human rights and even reveal his undercover identity at the right time. The Knight Kingdom considered recovering Musillon's influence, not only would he not be judged. Instead, he should treat him favorably, give him a piece of land, and give him a new title of equal count!

Why do you treat me, the undercover party and the leading party badly? !

Thinking of this, Okason, who thought that he was not at a loss, asked his valet: "What's going on across the river? Are Earl Lane and his army nearby?"

"There is no news for the time being, my earl." The valet immediately responded: "We have established a lot of outposts by the river, and there has been no change recently, and it has always remained calm."

"Well... the time is approaching, even if Earl Ryan wants to attack the Spire Palace, he should wait until after the ploughing." Okason slightly forehead, he then asked: "But we also can't despise Ryan, who is famous for his murderous reputation. Guys, have the sentries and scouts reported anything unusual today?"

"Not yet today." The valet shook his head: "Normally, news will come from the scouts and sentries in the afternoon."

"Let's do this first, let's start the winter hunt first!" Earl Okasson did not doubt that he had it. He immediately ordered the winter hunt to start. In the wild, winter hunting begins.

The winter hunt lasted for more than two hours. Today, Earl Okason was lucky. He hit two hares and three pheasants, but he was not able to hit the wild deer he wanted the most, which made Okason a little regretful. But he was immediately attracted by the change in the sky.

The originally sunny sky gradually turned, and the sky was heavy with dark clouds. Before Earl Okason could react, fine raindrops had already fallen from the sky~www.wuxiamtl.com~ The sky was dark, and the bone-chilling chill soaked through the whole winter. The heart of the hunting team.

"It's raining!"

"Damn! The weather was so good before, why did it rain suddenly?!"

This is not the end of everything. Just when the whole winter hunting team was talking about it, something even more terrifying happened. In the rain, a huge amount of hail smashed into the gray ground and the snow-covered forest. The hail and rain fell in patches, on the helmets of the serf infantry, on the armor of the knights' squires, on the richly decorated plate armor of the Earl of Ocasson, and in a few minutes, the fine hailstorm and the terrible rain The snow has almost completely submerged this group of people!

"Dang dang dang ~" The dense hailstones smashed the entire team into the sound of hailstones hitting the armor. It sounded extremely harsh. The hateful hailstones became bigger and bigger, and gradually changed from thumb size to egg size. Many serf infantrymen were smashed to death on the spot, and the knights were also smashed to the point of being unable to lift their heads.

The heavy rain like a waterfall then swept the entire winter hunting brigade. The freezing cold made the infantry and knights sluggish. It seemed that the winter hunting could not go on.

In desperation, Earl Ocasson had to order: "Everyone, find a place to hide!"

"Yes!" The attendants responded in succession, and everyone had to disperse, looking for a place to shelter from the rain in the wilderness and swamp.

The entire plains and swamps turned into a muddy swamp, and in the hail and sleet, everyone could not see their fingers and screamed miserably.

It was precisely because of this heavy rain that no one in the entire winter hunting brigade noticed that a team of more than 80 knights was slowly approaching from a distance. Surrounded by light, all the rain, snow and hail that came towards him were automatically deflected.
