The Amber Sword

Guests are naturally acquaintances of Brando - Greyfin Naga. The pearl in his hand was also given to him by the hand of Sannir by Queen Naga Cold Lu. It is a magic item of communication between Naga. Unfortunately, this thing has limited yield. Otherwise, he can be every important person around him.

As soon as the black pearl shined, Brando immediately realized Sannir had arrived. But the first reaction was the outpost set up by the peripheral White Lion Kingsguard, and young people from Tonigal naturally recognized the Naga crowd and directly led them here.

The first thing Brando saw was a tall, taller Thanir than most people, beside him was a female Naga - a feminine Naga charmer, but not like a human being, with sharp, fin-shaped ears, smooth skin, three fine mumps above the clavicle, and a snake body below the belly button, just like the male Naga.

Brando began to wonder why Sannir didn't rendezvous with Antina and took the sea to Tonigal. But as soon as he saw the woman, Naga, he understood, who also happened to know, Bridget the Sea Demon, one of the main priests by the Cold Queen.

In the Naga clan, the men who presided over the sacrifices and wars were all women, like Sannir, who was a warrior but only a warrior on the front line. Although the Naga clan greyfin was later coincidentally led, that was an exception, usually a matrilineal society.

And Naga, a woman of noble descent like Bridget, appeared in the army mostly as a sacrifice, and in fact probably played a role equivalent to that of a prison guard.

Brando understood in a moment that he was coming to an alliance with himself. This also explains the whereabouts of the Port of Ambesseur Guard, which seems to have been committed from the outset to participating in the war.

And as soon as the other person spoke, he confirmed his guess:

“Lord, at the behest of the Queen, we fight alongside the allies of mankind in accordance with the sacred covenants of thousands of times.” Bridget speaks excellent Krutz, can barely hear it coming from the mouth of Naga, and there is no such low sand murmur as Sannir.

When she spoke of Her Majesty, she bowed her head slightly and offered Brando a gift. This gift is not so much a tribute to Brando as a tribute to his queen.

Brando had a slight glimmer in his eyes, how acute he was as a player, and how well he understood Naga's customs. It appears that the Cold Queen intends to associate with him on an equal footing, or else there will be more. But he did not believe in the bullshit of the sacred covenant, and if the sacred covenant did work, there would be no jihad between the four temples.

What a powerful means, under the pretext of crowning, is obviously a naked political investment. But His Majesty had a crush on him, and he was clearly just a little Tonigal lord.

Bridget shut up after the scene, obviously not giving him a chance to satisfy his curiosity. Sannir probably wouldn't know, but in his capacity, he's not really a big shot in Greyfin Naga.

But Brando has never been a root-searcher, and although it is better to have reinforcements, he can only accept them reasonably. Anyway, consider yourself in debt to the Queen. I'm afraid this is the purpose of the other party, and I'm not worried about paying back with his abilities.

The arrival of Greyfin Naga also caused a lot of disturbances among others. After hearing that they were allies, disturbances quickly spread among young people. Ovewell couldn't help but say that Brando was a bandit lord and all his men were bandit pirates, which was a joke, of course, because Sir Wolf had only one thing to admire.

Only those who feed their own militias and forcefully associate with the parties cannot be counted on. Most aristocrats in Eruin, including even scrap wood like Groudin, raise militiamen, a natural instinct of the aristocracy that seems to be learned without learning. Being able to forcefully interact with all parties requires some personal charm in addition to your own strength.

The problem is that Brando knows too many forces, Druid, Naga, all of which are usually out of reach. The human identity before these people is useless, and nobility is no different from civilians in Druid's eyes, while nobility is, in Naga's view, about the same as fat sheep.

And Brando gets their approval, which can only be described as a freak.

Others are fine, but the princess's eyes get a little complicated when she sees him. Brando could even clearly feel both an identity and a slight vigilance in the eyes of a half-Pokémon girl, and he knew where that vigilance came from.

With the addition of Greyfin Naga, the army gathered next to Her Royal Highness expanded to at least 6,000 men, barely having the strength of a close guard regiment. The crowd seemed to see a little hope, especially Count Odin's militiamen, that they would no longer look like warlords - and Brando was really afraid that these guys would collapse into desertion.

Brando asked Sannir again how they had caught up to understand that Sannir and his men, the Greyfin Naga Guard, had followed themselves around the sea along the Gulf of Ambessel. According to Sannir, they broke down the Harbor Guard and discovered that Brando had withdrawn from Ambethel. At that time, the Black Blade Regiment had assembled south of Ambesseur, and Sannir had taken a stand, ordering all Naga to evacuate along the city's river course, enter the Gulf off Ambesseur and land from the Gulf of Dungan before blocking Brando's line.

The topography of Ambesseur is very special, where the north-south land converges to form a moon-shaped bay, the centre of which is the Ambesseur Strait, with flat topography to the north and cliffs to the south. This unique landscape can be seen by boat sailing, and the line south of the port of Ambesseur is almost entirely a razor-sharpening cliff, underneath which the reef is dense and the sails are difficult to get close to.

And there are two landing points to the south, and Dungang Bay is actually a shallow beach, and only Naga can land there. Not to mention the turbulence of the reef outside, which Brando knew very well, so he got rid of the idea of sailing from there. Further south is St. White Bay, far from the port of Ambesseur and the only anchorage in the area.

Brando made an estimation of the time and it seemed unlikely that he would make it to St. White Bay before being caught up by the Blackblade Regiment at the moment, but the addition of Greyfin Naga gave him another plan.

Brando immediately rolled up the parchment map, and the officers of Wang Li Knights College around him knew that their ‘commander' was going to make a plan, so they came around. Ovewell and Count Odin also stood right and left beside Brando.

“I figured it out.” Sir Wolf asked.

“Well," Brando nodded: “There's a concept, but it needs to be tested. ”

“What's the best trick, my lord, to get rid of those nasty guys in the sky?” Enroque asked grinningly.

“Brando, can you drag the dragon cavalry out of the sky at night?” Freya asked.

“Impossible,” replied Count Odin, who had served in the Black Blade Legion and the Southern Legion and was the most familiar leader of the Feilong Cavalry: “The Feilong Cavalry's riding name is Eruin Aaron, and lives mainly on the northern plateau. They are actually nocturnal creatures, and the trained Feilong Cavalry has no problem tracking them at night. ”

“That's nasty, or 24/7.” Brando cursed in his heart, but he also knew this; speaking of which, he was also a Feilong cavalry in the game, and he knew the creature Eruin Yalong quite well, so he did not keep this delusion from the beginning, "Okay, unless the knife is in the sky or down, he still doesn't want to lose each other, after all, he is flying, we are walking. ”

He was playful and the crowd couldn't help it.

“We're dead too, Brando.” Only Freya glanced at him without anger.

“So we have to face the Black Blade Legion, and at that rate we will be caught up as early as tomorrow afternoon," said Rocha, the head of Sanjie, very quick to react. "No, not even then. Earlier, the Black Blade Corps Light Cavalry would bite. ”

“Light cavalry isn't good at fighting in the mountains, maybe we can bite them back.” Bryson shrugged, answering.

“Then we lose time.” Nimaisie said quietly, looking at Brando. She has always been the commander of this army, but now her calm face doesn't seem to show any discontent with Brando.

Brando also found that the knight had a qualities that he admired very much, namely the obedience of the military, her calm, steady, absolute obedience to orders, which he could not even do himself, and this was a truly good soldier.

But he was a woman, and he looked exactly like her, which made him a little unacceptable.

Ovewell didn't talk, he seemed to be waiting for these young men to talk. Brando thought the same thing, and it would be nice to take this opportunity to see what Eruin Sanjie really is capable of.

After a moment of reflection, Rocha answered, “Sooner or later, the advantage of time will be lost, at least until then, we can decide where and how to fight the Black Blade Legion. ”

Exactly.

Convert the heavens and the earth to earth. Brando praised the idea that the head of Sanjie was worthy of his reputation. However, he was premeditated, but the other party was an instant judgment, and there was a huge gap.

Fortunately, he never considered himself a genius commander, and he was here because he had much more insight than anyone else in history. That's enough.

“What is the goal of the battle? ”

“Obviously, stick to the standby.” Enrock replied.

“So where do we choose the battlefield?” Everyone can't help but look at the open map, as can Brando. They were actually heading east into the Machenko Mountains in the direction of leaving the port of Ampesar, and are now in some places south of Jean Din's foothills estate.

Jean Ding's Foothill Estate is a famous landmark near Ambesseur, which is actually a mountain inn that looks like a fortress. The estate is situated in a mountainous forest surrounded by mountains about a dozen miles east of the port of Ambesseur, on a must-pass path leading to the province of Ambesseur.

Because it's the only avenue around here, and they're off that avenue, and it's actually southeast of Ambethel that's already in the mountains. And there is another avenue south of Ambesseur, which leads to Vlada-Pez, and they are right between the two avenues.

This area is a level 25-30 adventure area that Brando is familiar with. To the south, there is a guard city in Ambesseur, near which there is a sawmill, Ambesseur's main daily charcoal supply site, where Brando has done many tasks before.

There is also a small iron mine nearby, because of the availability of charcoal, and a large number of plantations run by blacksmiths arose around Harvest Year (1st.360). Centered in the city of Weicheng, it enters the mountains to the east, and to the west is a smooth coastal area with dense smoke.

Brando's gaze deliberately drew a line in the area.

Young people are arguing.

Caglis believes that the advantages of their small but elite army should be harnessed to thwart the Black Blade Legion in the Fama Valley (1), which penetrates into the northern branch of Antilles and is one of the best terrain to be used as an ambush.

But Enroque believes that they should have entered the Fama Mountains and followed them to the northern mainstay of the Anlic Mountains, similarly retreating with less elite advantage and circling with the northern coalition in the deep mountains. This is a fantastic idea, Brando, and when he heard it, he thought, "Isn't this the prototype of guerrilla warfare?" That could be an option.

But he was just stunned, and the controversy over there has become feverish. Enroque laughed at the rigidity of Caglis' ideas, his military dogmatism, Caglis's weakness, his opposite lips claiming that he was a bandit bandit, and his mind was a mountain king's idea.

There was no conclusion to the dispute between the two sides, and Bresson supported Caglis' view, while Murko thought Enlock was better. Only Freya, Rocha and Nimaisi's eyes fell on Brando.

Brando smiled and pointed on the map: "We are here to throw a grand banquet for the Blackblade Legion. ”

Everyone looked in his direction, but Brando was not far from here, and he drew a line that eventually pointed to a place called the Male Heights.

What is this place?

Everyone saw that the place on the map was obviously not the best place to strike. The Mar Heights was a terrain, and although it was also a crossroads of three mountains, the open surface was a flat alluvial plain that was very conducive to the army's development. I'm afraid there's a problem here. If Brando hadn't taken them out of a bloody road, everyone in the room, including Caglis, would have wondered if he was a Northern Union mole...

“Mr. Brando…? ”

“Believe me, this is the best choice,” Brando laughed. “I'm not joking about my own little life, am I? ”

“But why?” Freya couldn't help but ask.

The reason is simple: Brando laughed badly, and this place called Marl Heights was a nightmare in the minds of countless players. Inside the Male Heights is a copy of what is called the ‘Temple Ruins of Affiga', the famous demon of Vaughn, who is said to be a demon - of course, this temple has nothing to do with him, except that it is occupied by a group of wind elements from the Mountains of the Storm's Rest, and the temple is buried deep underground, and should not have been discovered before this era.

The temple was published in a later version, with a small opening task. Brando can totally imagine how much trouble the Blackblade Legion would be in if he got this thing out. The player was beaten to death and the wolf howled, and it wasn't until almost five years later that someone took care of the copy.

Not to mention in front of the Marl Heights is still a colony of monstrous wild boars. If you don't know the right march route, these 20 + level herds of creatures are enough for them to drink a pot.

Brando thought about it and felt like he was going to laugh. Moreover, he chose the battlefield on the plain not only to relax his opponents, but also for deeper considerations. But there are things that cannot be said yet, and while the Cavaliers of Wang Li College are credible, the aristocratic vigilantes of Count Odin are difficult to say.

He waved to show others to stop the discussion, Brando Wisdom had been initially established, and although the young people were somewhat confused, they chose to believe the commander who had taken them all the way out.

“This place is actually an inverted triangle, and if you stick to two of those hills, you can't defend it. I think the lord may have other considerations, but isn't this place too close to the city of Weather in Ambethel?” Rocha also frowned and asked.

“On the contrary, we are going to kill along this line.” Brando pointed to the estate and said.

“Ah, what? Really?” Enroque almost didn't jump up: “Lord, this doesn't seem necessary if you're going to show the army to shock the Yankees... well, I'll admit we're already pretty good. ”

“No, it's very necessary.” Brando smiled at him. Then he turned around and said to Sannir, "Sannir, do you and your men perceive your sea demon whale? ”

Sannir nodded slightly.

“Please take them immediately and make sure Miss Antina shows up in front of me before tonight. ”

“No problem.”

Brando rolled up the parchment and said to the others, "Get ready, and come up with a battle plan. And don't forget, we have to beat the pioneer cavalry of the Black Blade Legion and let them know we're here. ”

Everyone looked at each other, but they had to get up and pay their respects.
