The riding and chopping simulator of the Lord of the Rings

Chapter 105 Preparation, departure

Almost half a month ago, Kress took Allen's order and led fifty cavalry from Lonely Mountain to Jungle Road to inform Allen, who was stationed there, to prepare him for enemy attacks. Prepare.

After spending a few days, Kress and his party finally arrived at Allen's camp and completed all the things that Allen explained.

It's just that the Dongyi people were still building bridges at that time, and they didn't even get close to Honghe Town, let alone close to Alan's sphere of influence, so the surrounding area was quiet and peaceful, and there was no sign of preparing for war at all.

After staying in the camp for a few days, Kress, who had nothing to do, took Grim across the River Run and headed east. She wanted to see what kind of enemy it was that made her boss so nervous.

Soon the birds around told Kress a lot of news, letting her know that there was a huge human team driving the livestock to migrate here.

After Kress, who couldn't be idle, learned of this, he took the fifty cavalry assigned to her by Allen from the camp, and ran towards the direction provided by the bird.

Elaine, who was trying to find a way to strengthen the camp, originally thought of sending out these cavalrymen as a scouting team, but before Fatis gave a reply, all these cavalrymen were taken away by Kress.

The helpless Elaine could only watch Kress leave in the end. After all, the fifty cavalrymen were not under his management in name, and before Kress left, he was still under the control of Elaine. Asked for a lot of supplies.

If Fatis is here, whether it is his personal prestige or the various authorities given to him by Allen, it is enough to order Kress to stop her from messing around.

However, Alan's military minister is still preparing to recruit the entire army in Wilderness Town. Since Jamila and Alan are on their way back to Wilderness Town at this time, Fatis has a lot of things to do. I have no time to take care of Elaine,
Now, Chris, who still has the right to command these cavalry, can really do whatever he wants.

Since the ones who provided information to Kress were not those small animals that had been raised for a long time, their intelligence was relatively low, and the information they provided was also vague.

At the beginning, Kress got the news that the people driving the livestock were coming from the direction of the rising sun. According to the information, Kress led the team and ran straight to the east.

As a result, Kress' direction was naturally wrong, and most of the people in Red River Town came here along the rushing river.

A few days later, the animals around told Kress that many people were resting by the river, so she ran east along the running river for a while, only to find the residents of Red River Town who were planning to migrate to the west of the Black Forest.

It's just that the people Kress found at this time were not the first group of northern humans who set off from Red River Town, and at the same time, they missed the opportunity to join Horimion.

It was precisely because of the stagger that Kress did not return to Wilderness Town with the elves. Instead, he learned about the battle where Herbert died from the mouths of other small animals.

Kress didn't know how important the dead people were, but she was definitely going to take a look at such things, and after hearing that someone died, there was obviously some confusion in the migration team in Honghe Town, and then they also divided up. A few cavalry came out, followed Kress and continued to move eastward along the current.

Soon, they ambushed Barr and Akkad's team, and also protected the residents of Red River Town who were migrating in small boats.

Because of Grimm, several Honghe town cavalry who followed Kress far behind, after seeing the large-scale Dongyi people, their faces clearly showed panic expressions. , there have been some guesses.

After interrogating the prisoners for a few words, they finally confirmed the fact that their lord had died tragically, so they bid farewell to Kress, who was helping, and rushed to inform Malhebi who was walking at the front of the team.

Kress didn't care about the reactions of these people. She was a little complacent about her ability to destroy some enemies and save hundreds of people. After all, the order she received from Allen was just to send a letter, but She is very subjective, but she can do so many things in a short period of time.

Of course, these are all good things. Although this little girl is a little restless and restless, she is extremely lucky. Most of the time, she can always bring some unexpected surprises to her boss.

It's just that her eldest brother Alan, who doesn't know about these surprises yet, is on his way back to Wilderness Town.

At this moment, there is a tense atmosphere everywhere in Wilderness Town. There are no children playing everywhere on the street. Even if the family conditions are quite affluent, these children will go to the fields to help their mothers complete the work of spring plowing. .

And their father, who was busy in the field, immediately put down the farm tools in his hand after receiving the lord's call to prepare to respond to his lord's call.

After receiving the order, there was actually very little time left for them, only enough time to confess a few words to their elders, wife and children, and then they had to follow their captain to the playground in Wilderness Town for pre-war assembly.

Fatis, on the other hand, led his personal guards and waited for the arrival of the soldiers on the playground. As the Minister of Military Affairs, while issuing the order to recruit soldiers, he also brought the weapons and equipment of each legion from the warehouse in Wilderness Town. out.

These weapons and equipment will be issued with a soldier brigade as the basic unit. According to the past habits, soldiers need to check whether the equipment they have sealed up before is in good condition, and at the same time they have to be fully armed for a few days of actual combat training before they can set out on the battlefield. .

"Infantry Corps, the third brigade of light infantry has been assembled. There should be 100 people, and there are actually 100 people."

"The Archer Legion and the Crossbowmen Brigade have been assembled. There should be 100 people, and there are actually 100 people."

"The infantry regiment and the heavy infantry brigade have been assembled. There should be 100 people, and there are actually 100 people."

Looking at the three captains reporting to him, Fatis thought about how much time it would take before he could finish recruiting the soldiers.

Since the battle in Gushan, many brigades are no longer fully staffed. It's just that Allen thought of this very early and asked Fatis to do a good job of replenishing soldiers in advance.

And Fatis also carried out Allen's order very well. In the past few months, each legion has been gradually replenished from the reserve team. That is to say, there are still enough soldiers that Wilderness Town can recruit. Fourteen brigades were formed, with a total of 400 people, and their combat effectiveness was much stronger than before.

Only after the New Year, according to Allen's order, Allen took the first and second battalions of the Light Infantry Corps, and the first archer battalion of the Archer Corps, to the southern end of the dense forest road and stationed there.

And in March of this year, before Allen went to Gushan, he also took away a brigade of cavalry from the herding horse village.

Now, there are still [-] soldiers on the list who can respond to the call-up order.

At this time, it was the second day after Fatis issued the order. The three brigades that could come to report were all soldiers whose fields were very close to Wilderness Town, so they were able to complete the assembly in just one day. At this time, they have already started to receive equipment and prepare for training.

As for the other soldiers, it will take two to three days before they can be recruited, especially the cavalry in the horse village, and those families who responded to the cabinet's call to move out of Wilderness Town, it will take longer for them.

This is one of the negative effects of policies issued to reclaim more land.

It was at this time that Alan and Jamila finally returned to Wilderness Town, and with their return, various affairs in the town were carried out more quickly and smoothly.

The recruitment of soldiers will inevitably affect the farming work, so after discussing with Allen, Jamila transferred the hundreds of captives rescued from the orc town from the old ferry, and the spring plowing work was not completed. Before, they all needed to help in the fields.

After finishing the work in the field, they still need to urgently build some simple weapons and ammunition under the leadership of Frey, as a backup for the soldiers.

Because Allen and Jamila can't judge how long the battle will last, the weapons in the hands of the soldiers, as well as the various ammunition used by the archers and crossbowmen, will definitely become less and less as the battle time prolongs .

So it's always good to make some preparations in advance, and these artisans who were once forced by the half-orcs to learn the crafting skills also have the ability to complete these tasks.

On the second day of his return, Allen took over all the military-related work from Fatis. He was going to send Fatis to lead the cavalry to Lonely Mountain to support the relocation of the Durin dwarves.

Allen has no choice. If possible, he still hopes that his military minister can be by his side to handle some complicated work, or provide some suggestions on the battle.

It's just that in Allen's current team, except for himself, there is only Fatis who has experience in commanding a large number of cavalry. Therefore, he had to let his military minister perform the duties of the cavalry commander again, and the wilderness remained. The next thing is done by Allen himself.

After receiving Allen's order, Fatis, who had clearly handed over the work in hand, led his personal guards, received the corresponding supplies from Jamila, and set off immediately.

The task of recruiting soldiers fell on Allen. Allen, who has been giving orders, does not particularly like to deal with complicated government affairs. His consistent idea is to let the right people do the right things. matter.

As the lord himself, he should control the general direction, lead this small boat that everyone is riding on, and sail on a correct route, instead of writing notes in the tent, asking how many spears this team should receive, and how many spears that team should receive. Get more leather armor, or call all the captains at night, let them train at the right time, and get ready to go.

It's just that Allen at this time has no other choice. With the help of Bandak, he stayed on the playground for a whole week, and finally assembled all the remaining soldiers and distributed all the equipment go down.

After the troops were assembled, Alan asked the heavy infantry brigade, which was ready to go, and the two archer brigades, to be dispatched to the dense forest road urgently.

Those who followed the soldiers to the dense forest road, and Yatiman who came back from the lonely mountain with Allen, this engineer will continue to build the unfinished fortifications as soon as he arrives there.

As for the cavalry, Allen believed that the ones that Kress took away were enough for Allen's scouting needs. The fifty cavalry in his hands and the other hundred cavalry that had been assembled in the horse-wrangling village would be enough. Under the leadership of Tuoju, guard against the enemies who may come down from Mount Gundabad or Misty Mountains.

Although these filthy guys have suffered severe injuries, Allen always felt that they would take risks and do something unacceptable to him under Sauron's order.

For example, when I was fighting the enemy on the dense forest road, these guys rode wargs and appeared around Wilderness Town again. inside.

As the present of spring, Allen must leave a force that can actively drive away the wolf cavalry, otherwise the farmers' hard work for a year may be completely wiped out in this battle. Such a loss is really unacceptable.

In order to avoid this from happening, in addition to 150 cavalry, Allen also found Beorn, and asked his skin-changing friend to arrange several tribesmen to assist the cavalry in defense.

Beorn thought for a while, and decided to let Woolf stay. At the same time, at critical moments, the skin-changing family members can also transform into bears to assist Allen's soldiers in defense.

As for himself, he will take the other two male skin changers who just joined them, Balk and Ogris, to the dense forest road to help Allen defend against the Dongyi people's attack.

After all, the skin-changing people's living environment is closely related to the existence of Wilderness Town. Even if they want to protect the hard-won stable life, they have to make their own efforts.

As Sauron's followers, the Dongyi people are extremely savage and aggressive. Beorn can't guarantee that they will have a friendly attitude towards the skin-changing people. Those people who are keen on fighting are more likely to domesticate them. Become a mount, or a battle pet, to attack other human forces.

Therefore, facing Allen's request, Beorn naturally would not refuse, but he, who is naturally peaceful, often sighs in his heart that wars come too often.

Alan didn't like this either. Originally, he had made a five-year short-term plan for the development of Wilderness Town and a 20-year long-term plan, but now he was completely disrupted by Sauron's single-handed counterattack. Now, everything All must make concessions for the sake of war.

After continuing to be busy for a few days, Allen handed over all the remaining work to Jamila, and he set off towards the dense forest road with a team of extremely complicated personnel.

In addition to Alan's six personal guards and a hundred light infantry armed with elven spears, Beorn and his three skin-changers were also in the team.

As Alan's old friend, James is a stalker and wants to go to the front line again, but Alan had no choice but to agree to take him with him, and at the same time he also brought the battlefield medical team formed by his apprentices.

On the side of Wilderness Town, Allen not only left 150 cavalry, but also [-] light infantry, [-] crossbowmen, and Bundak to assist Jamila in defending his base camp, so as not to appear What an accident.

As for the defense force on the dense forest road, Alan is going to talk to Hank and ask them to accept his employment and fight the Dongyi people. As for whether these northerners will accept his employment, Alan still has a question He has some confidence, after all, in his memory, most of the northerners have endless hatred with Dongyi people.
