Chronicles of Ryan the Wizard

Chapter 558 Hunter and Prey (3)

Nelson rode on a horse and quickly passed by the army desperately marching with a dozen soldiers.

As the most trusted general under Senat, Nelson has more than 30,000 elite troops in his hands. He was originally responsible for garrisoning Seck City, but Senat suddenly gave him an order this afternoon to let him go as fast as possible. At the speed of 20,000 elite infantrymen rushed to the Waluo Mountains area, intercepted the Mochizuki City Magic Exchange Group and his entourage, and gave him the power to command all the Senat troops in that area. In order to reduce the threat of the opponent's magician to his own army, Senat also generously provided him with 12 magicians.

As a good general, Nelson certainly knows that the Valor Mountains are the natural territory of the territory of the Senat and the territories of several other lords. There is a 5,000-man infantry stationed there, and this infantry has also received orders. , Will win them time to hurry.

Before Senat publicly broke away from the empire, Nelson was the head of a mercenary group. In fact, this mercenary group was the base for the training of the Senat army. They established a base in the mountains far away from the city. For more than ten years, Nelson has personally trained tens of thousands of fighters there.

Every once in a while, some fighters who have passed the training and meet the standards will be selected out of hundreds of people. They register a new mercenary group under various names, and then take risks outside to accumulate actual combat experience. It will not be long before these new The mercenary group that emerged would be very reasonable and reasonable to be hired by some rich men or caravans, and soon faded out of the Adventurer Guild.

Therefore, no one will find that the members of the mercenary group will become unrecognizable every once in a while, and the original members of the group are almost completely replaced by new faces.Even the proprietors who hired them would not say, because these so-called rich and caravans are simply Senat’s men.

Senat used this method to accumulate strength in the dark. His strength was mainly concentrated in the southern region, which was far from the imperial capital, and the business was developed. Mercenaries were everywhere, and it was easy to hide power.Originally, Senat should have concentrated all his forces before launching a rebellion, but he believed himself too much and underestimated the strength of the legendary invincible Royal Knights. In addition, the timing of Senat’s rebellion was indeed rare. If he waited for all his forces Concentrated, the imperial capital also passed that period of weak military strength.

At that time, Senat thought that the Imperial Capital could not send troops so quickly. Even if the army arrived in Seck City, Senat could defend for a period of time with his troops. What he never expected was that Orlando, the head of the Royal Knights, was bold. He was careful and led the cavalry to go south quickly, continuously attacking Senat’s important stronghold outside Seck, making Senat unable to defend himself in the city. In addition, Senat believed that the Royal Knights were all cavalry not good at attacking the city. He came from afar to nourish his deficiency, and he also wanted to become famous in a battle, so he took the army out of the city to fight.

It was not until facing the legendary army of the undead that directly crushed tens of thousands of people, and the Royal Knights that had never failed since its establishment, did Senat realize that he was wrong, as long as he had a slight flaw. , The opponent’s cavalry assault can speed up and hit their own vital points in an instant, and no matter their sword bayonet, they can’t hurt those golden holy knights.

In this asymmetrical battle, even if Senat is the greatest military commander in human history, he is powerless. When his army was defeated, Senat had to flee the battlefield with hatred. He hid in order to protect himself. The power in the dark can only choose to flee north, and leave traces all the way to lure the Royal Knights to chase him, so as to share the pressure of his hidden power in the south.

Orlando succeeded in one blow, and could not stay in Seck for a long time. Soon he returned to the imperial capital. The imperial ruler Fernando XIII ambitiously dispatched the lord, hoping to use Seck as a pedal to conquer the entire south. Senat's hidden strength in Seck City was far from what others could imagine, and the City Lord was emptied soon after he arrived.

During that period, Senat not only had to hide in Tibet, but also spent a period of time under house arrest in the orc territories of the frozen plateau in the north. It was not until the orcs launched an attack that Senat was responsible for attacking the imperial capital on both sides. The mission returns.After Senat returned to Seck City, he used the imperial capital to fight against the orcs, and made all-out efforts to expand and prepare for war, turning the tens of thousands of elites into 200,000. These troops in turn expanded Senat's territory. .

"Although there are a large number of 200,000 people, the combat effectiveness has declined compared to before. Fortunately, the Imperial Capital is overwhelmed. We still have time." Nielsen rode on the horse and thought silently, "Unfortunately, the master refused to listen to my persuasion. It is not sensible to be an enemy of Mochizuki Castle, once..."

"General, general!" The guards beside Nelson kept calling him, which also made him recover. Nelson raised his head and found that a scout riding on a horse was less than 5 meters in front of him. .Nelson reacted extremely quickly. He tensed the reins with both hands. The horse under his hips immediately made a long neigh, and his two front hooves were raised high, almost stopping the fast galloping movement in place.

"Good riding! Good horse!" The scout naturally knew how difficult it was to do this. He cried out loudly, and the soldiers trotting on the road saw their generals showing their hands. They applauded, but they closed their mouths immediately after the applause and proceeded without delay.

"What's the situation?" Nelson asked, riding on the horse, "is it news from the front?"

"Yes, General. The Cindicantelli department of our army has successfully encircled the target on the Valen Mountain peak in the Valor Mountains. The target shows no sign of breaking through. Commander Cindy Cantelli has divided the troops and blocked the target’s north-south passage. Now ten times the superior force is ready to launch a trial attack..."

"Bastard! Do you think this is just an ordinary hunting? Just rely on your thousands of soldiers to dare to smash the Grand Magister?" Nelson scolded when he heard this. He had already issued an order and demanded the Valor Mountains. The Cindy Cantelli’s department only encircles and does not attack. First, it is afraid that the attack will be unfavorable, but the encirclement will be looped. Second, the owner’s ultimate goal is not known. If this incident leads to a deadly battle between Seck City and Mochizuki City, then no Is the imperial capital cheaper instead?

Nelson knew that he was not the superior of these leaders before. Although he personally trained tens of thousands of elites, for these second-line troops, he did not know how powerful Nelson was. If Nelson trained himself, how could this happen? When he acted rashly, he immediately took out a token from his arms and threw it to the guards around him, shouting loudly: "Hurry up with my token and rush over, and strictly order Cindy Cantelli not to act rashly, as long as he surrounds the target. Just make them escape. Remember, Cindy Cantelli must not be greedy for merit, or I won't let him go!"

Seeing his guards galloping away with eight scouts, Nelson suddenly had some bad feelings in his heart, and he immediately issued a second order: "Order the former army to drop their equipment and move forward, tell them , There are still 80 kilometers, if you can't make it at dawn, I will take the command of the army and send them to see the gods!"
