Arad's Sword

Chapter 22 Surprise
Elves, this is one of the biggest forces among the sub-human races on the Arad continent, and some tribes are even more civilized than human IQ.These elves are distributed in all major forests, including Gran's Forest, of course.

Under normal circumstances, the exchanges between elves and humans are mostly limited to some simple transactions, and most of them are carried out after human businessmen or adventurers take the initiative to go to the elves.Although they are very interested in some mechanical products and fruits of human beings, the elves who are good at carving, weaving and mastering advanced potion making methods actually don't have much demand.

For this mysterious race, the existence of human beings has little to do with them, let alone participating in any noble wars.

However, the elf tribe that Midi pointed out is a little different, the key is the geographical location.

The forest where these elves are located is located on the outskirts of Gran's Forest, next to the territory of the Asrex family. It is relatively prominent, and it happens to be within the action radius of Seth's army.

In other words, once a war breaks out, these elves are likely to be involved in the flames of war.Even if Seth's army chooses to detour, refugees, deserters, thieves who take advantage of fire, etc., will still have a great negative impact on this originally peaceful and peaceful land.

Of course, being negatively affected does not mean that the elves will help Midi. In the eyes of these elegant races who love nature and are good at bows and arrows, there is no difference between this noble and that noble.

It is more likely that the elves will regard all humans who step into the forest as enemies, and shoot and kill them without discrimination.

Although she has the memory of rebirth, Midi is not very sure that she can convince these elves.

After all, this aristocratic war itself did not exist in the previous life. At that time, Fina was already injured, and the family became the scapegoat sent by the councilors, and they were on the verge of burning out.In this life, the war with the Seth family happened because of the decisions and choices I made. History has changed. This is the butterfly effect driven by myself as a reborn.

However, these are not important, because what Midi really wants to persuade is not these stubborn and conservative elves.

It is the real master of this forest.

Witch of the Mist.

Alice Outropos.

In the previous life, his other beloved was also Fina's lifelong friend.

"The elves are very stubborn, and what's worse, they're very conservative." Fina obviously doesn't like this race, which is understandable. The Queen of Magic Bullets, who is as free as a flame, has a lot of emotions for those who have been fighting for thousands of years. A race that hasn't changed much, of course it doesn't look right.

"This forest is different, because the key is not in the elves. I'm about [-]% sure." Midi replied, "How about it, do you want to try?"

"Of course! [-]% is already high enough." Fina didn't ask the basis for the [-]% certainty, she directly chose to accept the answer, and then changed the subject, "But even so, our time is too late, Seth The army has begun to assemble."

"Not enough time, let's create." Midi showed a cold smile, "The method is very simple, let's fight a battle first, so that they can't gather together."

"Fight a war?" The red-haired girl's eyes lit up, and the job transfer was completed perfectly. She hasn't moved her hands and feet yet, and Midi's vigorous plan at the moment is exactly what she wants.

Sigmund and Lilian are naturally eager to try. After all, the factors of adventure and fighting are active in the bodies of job-changers. As long as they are certain about radical tactical plans, they will not have any rejection.This is also the style of the Falcon Group established by Fina in the previous life.

The surrounding knights looked at each other in blank dismay. Could it be that this time, this dandy young master is going to fight in person?Or against [-] with [-]?Wouldn't this ruin the entire foundation of the Asrex family?

Midi didn't explain, but turned her attention to her father, the current head of the Asrex family, Earl Engelmann.

"What are you going to do?" asked the Count.

"A small number of elites raided and burned the granaries. The Seth family did not fight in the local area, but borrowed towns from other nobles as bases. In this unfamiliar situation, once the logistics supplies are lost, at least they have to call them. Three weeks is enough for us to move in reinforcements." Midi replied calmly.

In the previous life, as one of the iron triangle of the Falcon Regiment, he was also a veritable legion commander, and he could easily judge the weakness of an army.

As soon as this proposal came out, the knights breathed a sigh of relief—at least, it wasn't a decisive battle as soon as they came up. If there were reinforcements as hope, a surprise attack would be a good tactic now.

Once the tactics are approved, the next question is very simple - who will lead the team.

"Are you going?" The count sighed lightly, and he understood Midi's eyes in an instant.

Midi looked around again, looking at the smiling and confident red-haired girl, at Sigmund and Lilian who were waiting calmly, at the knights who were loyal to the family but not at ease with themselves, looked at He looked at the old butler Lautrand who was silently waiting at the door, and then nodded.

"This is the place where I grew up. It is my territory and people. And they are my comrades-in-arms, partners who go through life and death together." Midi replied lightly, her voice was not loud, very calm, as if everything was originally It should be, "Of course I'm going."

"Bartland!" The count called out a name in a majestic voice.

The middle-aged knight immediately took a step forward, waiting for the order from the Patriarch.

"Immediately dispatch a hundred elites, I want them to be ready immediately, ready to fight at any time, not to protect my son, but to win!" Earl Engelmann said.

Butland paused for a moment, and the next moment, the hesitation in his eyes disappeared, and he brought the fierceness of a veteran who had really been killed from the mountain of corpses and blood on the battlefield.

"Understood, my count!"

"For victory!" The knights shouted in unison at this moment.

When the Ashleks family finally decided to attack brazenly, the Seth family was also making the final preparations before the war in Yorkshire.

Fenrir Seth, the slut who usually seems to be the leader of a gang of dandies at the Royal Academy of Magic, unexpectedly came to the frontline base of the battlefield this time.The setbacks and face-slaps he suffered in the previous trial made Fenrir hold grudges all the time, and could not sleep at night, and hatred, even if it is unreasonable and inexplicable outrageous hatred, is still the biggest driving force for a person to move forward.

That's why Fenrir came here, to Yorkshire where the "Red Flame Legion" of the Seth family was stationed.

At this moment, it was already the time when the moon was in the mid-heaven, and the new moon was like an arc hanging on the sky. Against the backdrop of countless stars, it sprinkled a cool and quiet brilliance.

The whole of Yorkshire is brightly lit. This small county town was not originally a military center. Naturally, there are winds on all sides, and no defense system has been established.It's just that after the Red Flame Legion came here, they immediately built towers in many places, and at the same time imposed a curfew, and the patrols and scouts at different times were also arranged in an orderly manner.

Almost in the blink of an eye, this small town became a watertight iron bucket, and a huge cobweb was sprinkled out. Whenever there was a disturbance, the fastest response would be made immediately.

"With such a lineup, is this the style of the so-called famous generals and elite soldiers?" Fenrir couldn't help but sigh with emotion as he overlooked the city dormant like a behemoth from the tallest tower in the county.

"It's not as exaggerated as you imagined, Your Excellency Fenrir." An indifferent voice sounded, and then a thin man in crimson armor who looked to be in his 30s and with a beard walked up At the top of the tower, "This level of defense is nothing more than a step-by-step implementation of military regulations."

The head of the Scarlet Flame Legion, Porter Seth, although he was born in a branch of the family, with his excellent swordsmanship and extraordinary commanding talent, he has built a large area of ​​territory for the family during the noble wars of the past ten years. He also became the head of the second largest army of the Seth family.

Because of his thin stature and good strategy, people called him "General Red Fox".

He is the commander in chief of this operation.Obviously, the Seth family didn't command the army to attack the Asrex family just for the sake of saving face.

"Uncle Potter, what are we going to do next?" Although Fenrir is a dude and extremely arrogant, after all, he has been fascinated by the nobles' vanity fair, and in front of a capable person like Potter who has been recognized by the family, he is also respectful. ask for advice.

"Of course it's an all-out attack! All [-] troops have marched into the territory of the Asrex family!" General Red Fox replied proudly without hesitation.

Fenrir became confused: "But what about our base here? Besides, since we are going to attack in an all-round way, why are we building so many fortifications..."

"Your Excellency Fenrir, it is precisely because there are very few people left that you should give them a better defensive advantage, right?" General Red Fox explained patiently. Obviously, for the future heir of the Seth family, He also has the intention to win over and show off.

"I see." Fenrir was relieved.

"But you don't have to worry. With the Asrex family's troops and that kind of command, I don't think there will be any real battle at all. At that time, the Scarlet Flame Legion will sweep across the entire territory, and finally Its lord's castle has become an isolated island in the vast ocean! At that time, they will surrender without even breaking the city." General Red Fox proudly twirled his well-trimmed mustache, "Information pointed out that the Hamilton family Miss Qianjin is also in their territory, and she will probably become our captive by then."

"If we can really capture Fina? Hamilton, then we have a lot of cards in our hand!" Fenrir's eyes lit up.He couldn't help but began to fantasize about the situation when the principality's most beautiful woman became a prisoner of his men.

General Red Fox obviously saw through Fenrir's ulterior obscenity, and he didn't point it out. He just smiled and twirled his beard again, as if he had seen the moment of victory in breaking the castle of the Asrex family.

The next instant, a thunderous bang rolled across Yorkshire.

A flame soaring into the sky suddenly rose in the camp of the Scarlet Flame Legion, as if it wanted to tear apart the silent night.

"Enemy attack!" The heart-piercing howl of the sentinel instantly pierced the eardrums of the two triumphant and thoughtful people.
