. Dio accompanied Laura around the other side of the river several times, but still found nothing. If there is anything unusual, it is that there seems to be an unpleasant smell permeating the air here, a bit like sulfur, but not that pungent. I can't tell what it is.
In the end, Laura reluctantly gave up, but still emphasized: ¡°I really don¡¯t feel very comfortable here.¡±
Dio nodded in fake agreement: "Then let's look more carefully?"
¡°Forget it¡± Laura was a little discouraged: ¡°Maybe I feel wrong.¡±
This was just a small episode, and Dio didn't take it to heart. Only Laura seemed to be unwilling to do so, and would frown and glance in this direction from time to time.
The coalition forces soon arrived at the Seine River. Naturally, a lot of preparation work had to be done to cross the river. Dozens of pontoon bridges were set up on the winding Seine River. The warriors responsible for exploring the path had reached the other side of the river and were observing Candia from a distance. Gecheng, beware of enemy sneak attacks when crossing the river.
"My lord, the coalition forces are ready to cross the river." A warrior hurriedly walked to the top of the city and reported to Benedick.
"How long will the effect of the medicine last?" "Two days."
Benedick pondered for a moment: "Go ahead and tell everyone to get ready."
"Yes, sir!" The samurai responded loudly and ran down excitedly. The Tsunami Legion took the initiative to give up the camp. The soldiers below were filled with excitement. This time they finally had a chance to feel proud. .
Benedick looked at the winding Seine River in the distance. It would take at least a day and a night for hundreds of thousands of troops to cross the river. In other words, they would have to block the coalition forces for a whole day before the advance arrangements would take effect. Is it successful? Failure depends on this time.
"The Tsunami Legion is in Candiago City?" Schloss, who was directing the soldiers to cross the river, turned to look at Alves beside him.
"I'm not sure how many troops there are in the city, but the man in the city is definitely Benedick."
Alves had dealt with Benedick a few years ago and had a very deep memory.
"That should be it." Schloss nodded: "It is impossible for Benedick to leave the Tsunami Legion at this time."
A samurai brought up the map. Schloss checked it carefully and soon discovered the problem. There were mostly mountains and forests nearby, and Candiago City guarded the only transportation artery. If he didn't want to conflict with the Tsunami Legion, , we can only take a detour, but that will waste at least three times more time. Schloss believes that the other party will not be unaware of this fact.
"Benedick wants to fight us here?" Schloss was a little doubtful. Candiago City is not small in size, but it is not a military center. He really can't think of a reason for the other party to do this.
Alves on the side also saw that Candiago City did not have much advantage in terms of geographical location. He frowned and said, "Probably not. We have checked all around and there is no ambush." ??"Also. It may be that there are warriors stationed in Candiago City." Schloss said slowly, and this is the only explanation that works. Otherwise, if it were just the Tsunami Legion, it would not be able to compare with the coalition forces in terms of troop configuration or high-end force.
Alves shook his head: "If this is the case, then there is no need for them to abandon the border camp. At least their morale will not be affected."
Everyone discussed for a long time, but could not come up with a result, so they had to put this question aside. Anyway, Candiago City is the place they must pass through. No matter what is in the city, they must open this road. We can only take one step at a time.
The soldiers of the coalition army were not weak, so they crossed the river very quickly. By the next morning, hundreds of thousands of troops were already standing on the other side of the river.
Laura was still frowning. She always felt that something was lurking in the dark, staring at her eagerly, but she couldn't find the crux. This result undoubtedly made Laura very depressed.
Dio looked at Laura a little funny. This little girl is really persistent. She has been struggling until now. In fact, Dio also wanted to believe Laura's intuition, but after several investigations, there was no result. In the end, he just give up.
A breeze blew by, and Dio suddenly found that the unpleasant smell in the air was no longer as strong as it was two days ago. However, Dio did not pay attention to this subtle change that was almost imperceptible. La followed the large army towards the direction of Candiago City.
At noon, Schloss was about to give the order to take a rest. Suddenly, a spy rushed back to report that a large force of the Tsunami Legion was discovered at the exit of the canyon ahead.
Schloss, who originally wanted his soldiers to replenish their physical strength, immediately changed his mind and told the soldiers to seize the time to eat dry food, so he and Mo LinThe people rushed over first.
Standing at the top of the steep canyon, Schloss and others could clearly see that a dense army had gathered at the exit. It was initially estimated that there were at least 15,000 people. This number was exactly in line with the strength of the Tsunami Legion. It seemed that Benny Dick sent out all his strength.
It has to be said that Benedick chose a good location. Although the canyon is very wide, it can only accommodate about 20,000 people at the same time. It is obviously impossible for Schloss to use superior forces to encircle the Tsunami Legion. The plan is to break through from the front, but that is not what Schloss cares about. The Tsunami Legion only has fifteen thousand people, and they are no match for them even if they fight hard. What Schloss really cares about is what the opponent has to rely on.
Schloss stared at the Tsunami Legion's military formation for a while: "I didn't feel the presence of the divine warriors, what about you?"
Others also shook their heads. When Blomfield and Darthwood ambushed Kaiman, it was because the battlefield was full of violent energy waves, so it was easy to cover up the aura they exuded. But now It is obviously different. The war has not broken out yet. If there are warriors in the opposite camp, it is impossible to escape their perception.
Schloss pondered for a moment and then made a decision: "I'm afraid I'm going to trouble you all this time. After the war begins, I will transfer the wind warriors from the legion to follow you."
Of course, no one objects to this kind of thing. Schloss's intention is obvious, that is, he wants people like Alves to lead the wind warriors in the legion to harass the Tsunami Legion. If the resistance of the Tsunami Legion is not strong enough, these people will It can turn into a sharp knife and stab into the heart of the Tsunami Legion at any time.
The soldiers of the coalition forces poured into the canyon like a tide. The military formation of the Tsunami Legion at the exit remained motionless, standing there like a rock. It seemed that no matter how violent the storm was, they could not move even half an inch.
The next moment, the torrent of steel collided with the rock, and the deafening shouts of killing resounded over the entire canyon. Countless secret skills were fired back and forth, accompanied by splashes of blood.
As soon as the battle began, it entered a white-hot stage. The coalition forces had just won a great victory not long ago, and their morale had already risen to the top. However, the soldiers of the Tsunami Legion were holding back their strength and wanted to win in this battle. In order to regain their dignity, both sides were fighting hard regardless of the cost. People around them fell one by one, but no one took a step back.
Benedick was still wearing the light blue robe, standing on a small mound and calmly watching the battle ahead. During the initial layout, they had already chosen the battlefield here, but they had to control the time. There was a slight deviation. The best result is that they only need to persist for about half a day. However, Dio, Alves and others cleared the mother body faster than he expected, causing the time to advance a bit.
Of course, this is not something Benedick can control. It is a blessing in misfortune that the deviation is not too big. As long as he survives this day, the battle situation will be reversed in his hands, so even if he uses up all the power in his hands, Benedick would not give up this passage.
"Ya Ren, look at the top of the canyon!!" A guard exclaimed.
Benedick looked up and saw hundreds of figures appearing on the steep peaks on both sides of the canyon. Those who could reach the top of the peak in such a short time were at least wind warriors or saint-level powerhouses of other types. No need to make any guesses, Benedick knew that these people must be led by saint-level powerhouses, but it is currently impossible to estimate the specific number of saint-level powerhouses.
¡°It¡¯s time for you to get active too.
"Benedick glanced at the few warriors behind him: "Remember, they cannot be allowed to break through the military formation no matter what. "
"Don't worry, sir." The tone of the warriors sounded very relaxed: "We will leave as many as you come." Benedick smiled lightly and did not refute the exaggerated tone of his men, because he knew that these words were actually He said it to the surrounding soldiers, and sure enough, after hearing the warriors' words, the surrounding soldiers looked obviously not so nervous. In the military camp, the panic was like a plague, which could spread at any time. So Benedick must give the soldiers firm confidence.
However, Benedick sighed in his heart. He actually needed to use such unsavory methods to boost morale. If he had a choice, Benedick would never do this with his pride, but right now The situation was no longer up to him. If the coalition forces could not be intercepted at the designated location, all previous efforts would be in vain.
Finally, Dio, Alves and others led the warriors to rush down the canyon, circled the Tsunami Legion's military formation from both sides, and divided into several small groups to carry out an uninterrupted attack.
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?The legion's response was quite conservative. If Dio and others only carried out long-range attacks, the earth warriors in front of the team would resist them. Only when the distance was too close would they launch a violent counterattack.
After several contacts, although Dio, Alves and others also made great achievements and killed many soldiers of the Tsunami Legion, they were still unable to break through the military formation. Once they showed their intention, they would immediately Incurring a desperate attack from the saint-level powerhouse on the opposite side.
For a while, the situation fell into a stalemate. Of course, if people like Dio and Alves could rush in regardless of the cost, it would obviously not be worth the gain. ! .
