As the first rays of sunlight illuminated the earth, a loud horn sounded in Fort Riptide, and the soldiers from the sun never set woke up from the barracks one after another and began to put on their clothes, while the 30,000 Atlanta spearmen who were the vanguard army had already woken up when dawn began to brighten, and were now under the command of dozens of Atlantan officers, gathering in a large rectangular formation with a unit of thousands of people, and setting off in the direction of the western regions of the Central Continent outside Fort Rapids.

Today, these 30,000 Atlantan spearmen are no longer the cannon fodder units that wandered between militia and semi-professional soldiers in the battle of "Double Star Fall", but can completely become the second line of the sun never sets like the heavy hook scythes, Reykja archers, and Lancester macers, and can play the role of the mainstay at many times! And these Atlantan crescent spearmen are even higher than the combat power of the Atlantan crescent spearmen controlled by the New Atlantan Kingdom before.

The reason for this situation is not only because in the past half a year, these strong men recruited from the countryside of Atlanta, while enjoying the benefits of the army system of the Great Empire, have been trained by the officers of the Sun Never Setting for half a year, so that they all have the morale and loyalty to the army comparable to the heavy hook and sickle soldiers, the most important thing is that these 30,000 Atlantan soldiers have been replaced with new equipment.

Now these Atlanta soldiers are equipped with a kite-shaped shield that is not the previous wooden shield wrapped in iron sheets, but a solid shield wrapped in leather with an iron base and bordered with steel skin and steel nails, and the armor on their bodies is not the previous iron sheet armor and chain mail that are damaged, and even rusty in some places, but at the same time that the body is lined with a layer of fish scale inner armor, a set of chain mail and a hat that can even wrap the head are hung on the outside of the body. This allowed the Atlantan spearmen to adapt more quickly to the continuous drizzle in spring in the northwest region of the Central Continent and the sudden torrential rain in summer. In addition, the crescent spear used in the hands of Arter and Lan Crescent has also been updated: its head is also made of steel ingots, and the handle is made of a sturdy wooden strip with a layer of iron on the outside.

With excellent equipment and more than half a year of training, in Sun Lin's opinion, these 30,000 Atlanta soldiers are a stronger class than the Nordic sword and spear militia in the original world, because these Atlanta soldiers can switch between spearmen and halberders at will, which is destined for the Atlantan crescent spearmen to belong to the status of all-rounders on the battlefield, just like the Reykja archers can give up long-range strikes with powerful compound bows, and instead go to the front line of the battlefield with swords for hand-to-hand combat.

The forward army of the Western Continent will set off at sunrise, and the main force will set off at 9 o'clock in the morning.

Although the army of the West Continent does not have the so-called cavalry troops, and cannot fight excellent guerrilla warfare and mobile warfare tactically like the expeditionary force of the Central Continent where the sun never sets, the Western Route Army has also focused on the development of the walking arms of the sun never sets while giving up the cavalry troops, which makes the infantry soldiers in the West Continent Army not only have a wide variety but do not overlap, but also under the training of the officers of the West Continent, the cooperation between the various arms has reached an almost perfect level, which is also a characteristic of the West Army.

In today's army on the Western Continent, the second-tier troops include the Atlantan Crescent Spearmen, the Atlanta Noble Warriors (equipped with upper body plate armor, Atlantan swords and round shields, and the attributes are similar to the round shield swordsmen of the original world, but they are stronger, after all, the Atlanta noble warriors are heavily armed troops) Xiyi spear and bow foot light, as well as Reykja archers, Lancester hammer soldiers and heavy hook sickle men from the sunset; The first-line troops are the 3 major samurai legions from Xiyi, the heavy swordsmen who never set, the cavalry of England on foot and the giant crossbowmen, and the elite troops are re-planned and integrated 4 legions, forming a regiment of 12,000 people for the Sunset Longbow Guards, and the 2nd Air Cavalry Regiment of the Sunset from the New Delhi Peninsula with a total of 6,000 people, of course, in addition to tens of thousands of people, the baggage troops composed of town militia and Atlantan militia (equipped with swords, wooden shields and leather armor), With nearly a thousand engineers from the sun never sets.

If you count the 30,000 Atlantan spearmen who have left before, plus the main army that is currently preparing to set off and the baggage troops that will set off one after another, the number of the Western Army has now reached nearly 350,000. And Sun Lin dares to guarantee that even if Sun Lin takes out twice the foot army of the Central Continent, that is, more than 400,000 veterans who have fought in the Western Regions of the Central Continent and fought against foreign races and the 350,000 in the Western Continent, nearly half of them are the 2nd line troops of the Western Route Army fighting on any terrain, and the final defeated side will definitely be the foot army of the Central Continent Expeditionary Force rather than the Western Continent Army, this is not a problem between equipment, let alone morale and other aspects. It is the degree of training of the two teams on the battlefield: although the Central Continent Expeditionary Force fought hard in the northwest region of the Central Continent, but with the help of the cavalry army and the air cavalry troops, they can always fight smoothly, yes, the opponent's target is not the soldiers who are besieged by the cavalry army and are anxious, or the troops that have lost nearly half of their combat effectiveness after the cavalry army has been crushed; Since the first Mishar Heavy Infantry Regiment began to fight in the Western Continent, the army of the Western Continent has obviously been surrounded, besieged, and cut off from the back of the battlefield, whether it is the 2nd line of troops or the elite troops, they are all soldiers who have crawled out of the pile of dead, and they are all excellent soldiers who have found the light of hope in a desperate situation and carried out a comprehensive counterattack, and they are more able to adapt to desperate battles than the infantry of the Chinese and Continental Army. Even the officers and staff officers of the Western Route Army are much stronger than the officers of the Central Continent in terms of survival skills and other aspects of judging the enemy's situation and finding the enemy's flaws on the front-line battlefield.

And the most important thing is that last year, the two generals in the Western Continent Army who never set the sun in resisting the invasion of the Water Qilin Empire, and finally died due to the festering wounds on their bodies that could not be treated, until now the Western Continent Army still feels regret and grief for this, as the so-called mourning soldiers will win, Sun Lin feels that if he makes good use of this emotion, the North of the Imperial City of the Water Qilin Empire will be just around the corner.
