Chapter 579 Advance
"Third point, everyone is disbanded as usual and searches for supplies and young people in Tianzhu City and small cities. Five hundred people will be cavalry officers, two thousand people will be knights, five thousand people will be knight captains, and ten thousand people will be knight captains. The war is over. , the ministries remain unchanged, and the various regions are enfeoffed according to the number of soldiers. I believe you all know that the second prince of the royal family has issued a new fiefdom bill. When the situation is stable, you will be the new nobles. "

At the meeting, the next action order was issued, which the headquarters was accustomed to, but the two garrison commanders and deputy commanders looked a little subtle. Both of them were nobles. Seeing that a group of guys with low bloodline were about to catch up, they couldn't help but feel unhappy.

"It's okay to be dissatisfied, but don't speak out." Jiang Yuan said calmly.

"Sir, the earl did not give you the power to enfeoff before the battle begins." The deputy chief said seriously, "This kind of matter should be decided at a plenary meeting, at least until the earl..."

Before he finished speaking, the death lord's sharp claws pierced through the trespasser's heart. As he pulled away, a large bleeding hole appeared in the left chest of the deputy commander of the knights.

There was a heavy sound of falling to the ground, and the captain of the knights turned pale with shock, followed by strong anger. He resolutely pulled out the sword at his waist. Seeing this, the knight commanders also showed their weapons. This was what broke out during the process of dividing the spoils. The old and the new conflict, and chaos brings opportunities, causing the existing structure to change.

"The deputy commander died gloriously in battle and was buried generously."

Jiang Yuan casually picked up the cloth beside the table and threw it to the Death Lord to wipe his hands, and continued: "The headquarters and the garrison will immediately reorganize. I declare in advance that I am not interested in the tiring work of leading the army in combat. The troops will be exchanged for Earl, she is a smart guy. She will complete enfeoffment and promotion on her own to cultivate your loyalty..."

"My subordinates are always loyal to my lord."

A knight commander hurriedly expressed his loyalty, and the others also knelt down on one knee. Before that, he was just a loser who worked hard to practice swordsmanship in the village but had nowhere to serve. He dedicated his life to the nobility, and others needed their own people with a clean origin. , joined the Adventurer's Guild, but could never find a fixed team to work with. After all, occupations such as swordsmen and warriors were too common, and the royal army had many factions. Fortunately, it was only because of this war that I was able to advance.

"Your loyalty means nothing to me, so please don't interrupt me." Jiang Yuan's expression remained unchanged, "The captain of the knights has done a great job in defending the city. After reorganization, the number of soldiers will be 10,000, and 1,000 slaves will be sold or retained." Either way.”

The knight leader's face was uncertain, but the next second he was knocked out of the hall by the strong sword energy.

"But I am afraid that I will become ill due to overwork. I will temporarily recuperate. The deputy commander will be in charge of the department. I will show the earl afterwards that he barely has the ability to stand alone, so let's disband."

The meeting ended in a hurry, and the Death Lord carried away the unconscious knight leader. Jiang Yuan unfolded the map. Priscilla's Duke's plan was to capture the four nodes of Northern City - Border Fortress - Abyss Valley - Hub City, and move most of the northern part of the kingdom and the entire The buffer zone is included in the bag, the hub city is the responsibility of the other party, and their own goals are the northern city and the border fortress.

Because once the demihumans are defeated as a whole, they are destined to retreat back to their territory, so there is no need to use force to occupy the Abyss Valley.

The Northern City was an important town, and a strong attack would cost a huge price, so he abandoned it and came to Tianzhu City.

From a strategic point of view, the current main force of the demi-humans is in the Great Border Wall and the southern territory of the Holy Kingdom. As long as they are defeated, the northern city will lose its usefulness. When the time comes, the enemy will choose to retreat. .

In short, capturing the Great Wall is the primary goal today, just like the center of the whirlpool of the current situation.

……

Five days later, the army regrouped.

The previous troop recruitments took place in the east and west of the northern border. This sweep of the north has completely tapped the local war potential. The overall number has increased from 30,000 to 60,000 after reorganization. Although all the weapons in Tianzhu City have been Despite the distribution, every soldier could not be armed.

During the second reorganization process in three days, some of them disobeyed military discipline, left the camp without authorization, and beheaded all those who fled. More than 400 people died. After the organizational reorganization, the combat effectiveness of the entire army declined, but the framework was still there, and it did not collapse. Degree.

The officers were also updated, and eight of them became knight commanders one after another, bringing the total to twelve.

Jiang Yuan left 10,000 people to garrison Tianzhu City, under the jurisdiction of the deputy commander. He led 15,000 cavalry and 35,000 infantry to advance toward the Great Wall on the northwest border. Due to the establishment of transportation routes to the small city Tianzhu City, the army is not short of food now, but this is the result of the loss of local resources, which will be very troublesome in the future.

April 9, night

Multiple groups of goatmen cavalry harass the marching camp.

Jiang Yuan personally led the hunting team and traveled all night, capturing more than 500 goatmen to serve as mounts.

April 10th, night.

Harassment occurred again. It was obvious that the Holy Kingdom's southern battle had reached a critical moment. The Asians wanted to block the enemy's advance at the cost of ineffectiveness. All the 70,000 to 80,000 reserve troops had been wiped out and could only be mobilized from the front line. Some mobile troops.

This time, Jiang Yuan did not go out to hunt. Instead, he handed over the army to a knight commander and the death lord, and led five thousand elite cavalry to advance at full speed toward the destination overnight.

……

The Holy Kingdom supports a Holy King who wields faith-based magic as its king. The monarch and the temple forces govern the country in harmony. It is a country with a strong religious color. Even so, it is not as advanced as the Silian Theocracy.

There are two things that are particularly strange about the unique Holy Kingdom.

One is that the country is divided into north and south by a huge deep-water lake. Of course, the country is not completely divided, but forms an O shape surrounding it.

Therefore, some people even call the two places the Northern Holy Kingdom and the Southern Holy Kingdom. In addition, at the southern entrance, a Great Wall with a total length of more than 100 kilometers was built.

The majestic Great Wall, which took a lot of time and national strength to build, tells how much suffering the Holy Kingdom has suffered due to the existence of demihumans.

If the Great Wall is to be kept in the best condition at all times, it is inevitable to have a large number of troops stationed all year round. In the past, the lineup of the Holy Kings of the Holy Kingdom once tried to calculate how many troops they would need to prepare to defeat a race of demi-humans when they attacked.

The result is: without waiting for the demihumans to invade the country, the south will go bankrupt first. The best situation requires at least 200,000 standing troops.

Sufficient troops were needed but could not withstand such a scale, so the trinity of defense fronts was born.

The three fortresses and the Great Wall are integrated together. As long as these three nodes are not lost, the enemy will be gradually defeated even if they occupy the city wall, and the number of troops required for the best condition has dropped to 60,000.

But in the previous First Battle of the Great Wall, all Sentinel troops were attacked by the undead at the same time.

This is a difficult task that can only be accomplished by a deviant with deep knowledge and a thorough knowledge of the inside story.

What followed was a continuous onslaught of troops.
