"Dad Da..."
The sound of horses' hoofs resounded through a country path, and the cold wind was blowing fiercely. Now it has entered December, which is already a cold winter, but the Principality of Nomas is in the south, so even in winter, it will not snow or the temperature will easily drop below ten degrees. The current temperature is about 13 degrees.
Some unusually lush leaves in summer or autumn around them lose a fine light at this time, which looks very desolate, but there is still a large part of the trees that keep their dense leaves, making the whole forest not look less gloomy.
A total of eleven people in moderate clothes rode on their horses. Ten of them followed a girl, which did not mean anything more than her. Immediately behind the girl were a teenager and a teenager, and the remaining eight were a teenager and a teenager. First, move forward slowly.
"Is it already three o'clock in the afternoon? The temperature has risen a little."
Bingyuan took out his pocket watch and looked at the time, and then looked at the sun that had been hidden since morning until now.
The light of the sun shines on this group of people, which makes people feel very warm in this cold season.
"It's about 20 kilometers away from the second peripheral stronghold. It should be possible to reach the destination before 6 p.m."
The girl in the front turned around and looked at Bingyuan and said.
The red pupils and long hair look extremely conspicuous, especially in this quiet season, which makes people feel extra attention.
The girl in front of me, who is even less than 160 in height, is the officer of this group, and also the commander of this branch - Lieutenant Colonel Sanali.
"If you let the horse run fast, you can arrive at about four o'clock."
And the girl in the front of the team with him next to Bingyuan said slowly.
White hair, gray-white pupils, and the very caring animal ears.
This girl is Rosina, a first-class lieutenant with Bingyuan.
"No hurry, we still have a lot of time. The deadline for arriving at the second peripheral stronghold is today. There is no need to make the horse too tired. Go slowly."
Nali took out a candy wrapped in red sugar paper from her pocket, opened it, put it into her mouth, and said to Rosina while enjoying the wonderful sweetness.
"Ha, half a year has passed like this~"
A blonde girl behind Bingyuan yawned and said.
She is fragrant.
And immediately behind Xiang are Luo Na, Jie and Xuan Yiyi.
After half a year of training, they are full of confidence in their strength. When they are about to set foot on the real battlefield, they believe that they can survive from the cruel battlefield.
The other three people followed a teenager next to Youxiang.
"So that's why I said that time passes quickly."
Rovert, who was moving forward side by side with Youxiang, smiled and said to Youxiang.
Behind Lofert are the other three [Pupil Eaters] of Rosina's team.
Two of them are recruits, while the other Bingyuan is a pupil-eater who knows but is not familiar with the other who originally belongs to the Rosina team.
"Okay, okay, pay attention to the alert around. Although this is still within the defense line, there may be a reconnaissance team from the Principality of Effisley lurking in."
Bingyuan turned his head and said.
The three countries with a combined population of only 400,000, the Principality of Nomas, the Principality of Dafeng and the Principality of Hidarin, are the preparatory defenses of the southern military united front after the continuation of the central defense front. In addition to the main traffic road, the three military strategic points guarded by these three countries - West The Principality of Nomas in the south guards the marine channel on the edge of the front line, and the Duchy of Dafeng in the northeast guards the westward direction after continuing the central defense line. It is likely that the plains are more undulating but flat compared to the mountains, and finally the Principality of Hidalin in the east guarding the eastern edge of the front. The Sakhams Mountains.
There are only four roads leading to the countries of the Southern Military Alliance - the Nomas Strait in the southwest, the Roskiff Mountains in the northeast, the Sakams Mountains in the east, and finally the Kavki Plain, where the main forces of various countries are stationed in the south of the central front. The Kafki Plain is at the front, but the most important are the other three. This place can completely bypass the Kafki Plain to attack.
Only these four places can allow the army and a large number of [pupil eaters] to pass through, and the rest are not that the roads are too narrow and dangerous. Either it is full of poisonous insects and plagues.
We don't care about other places. Let's take a look at the Nomas Strait first.
The Nomus Empire is located in the southwest of the southern military alliance, which is the front line after the central region, while the east is a heinous mountain range that the army can't pass through, and there is no flat bottom on the coast. All of them are sea canyons up to at least 30 meters high. There is no way to climb easily, so ships are used at sea. It is completely impossible to attack the Nomus Empire. Only some rare fish people can move and go up and down there, so this has caused the more expensive fish in the Principality of Nomas...
So, it is only possible to attack the Nomas Empire on land.
But the key is that on the land, there are large trees and forests sandwiched between mountains and seafood. It is very difficult for a large army to pass through, so it can only be attacked with small and medium-sized troops and [Pupil Eaters].
After passing the capital of the Nomus Empire, there is a plain all the way, which can easily reach any country belonging to the southern military front, which is why the Nomus Empire can receive military assistance from many countries and a powerful reason.
The sworn enemy of the Nomus Empire is the Principality of Effili, which is similar to its own in the Northern Economic and Military Trade Union.
The two countries are also the front-line countries of the alliance, occupying military important places and small countries with a population of only 100,000, and... The two countries can completely bypass the central region and engage in war.
Therefore, in addition to the central front, the Duchy of Nomars and the Duchy of Effisley can be said to be a thousand-year-old enemy.
Both sides will discharge reconnaissance teams from time to time to enter the other party's territory for military activities. Of course, they will also take the opportunity to attack the team or soldiers who have fallen alone.
The current fifth team has completed half a year of training and is going to the second peripheral stronghold. In fact, it is now in the area of vigilance, because I don't know whether there is an enemy reconnaissance team around.
"Hmm... What are you afraid of? We have five [pupil eaters] with titles, don't we?
Lona, who is in the back row, looks very happy, said.
title.
is a thing that can only be owned by the [pupil Eater] who is recognized and has made achievements on the battlefield. In many cases, it does not symbolize status, but more a kind of strength and honor.
For example, the title of ice source is called [Golden Blue Battle Array].
"Even so, you can't take it lightly. Underestimating the enemy on the battlefield will often kill you."
Bingyuan looked at Rona and said.
"I'm just joking. I know what I know."
Rona answered Bingyuan with a smile.
