When a regimental configuration that shook the entire Nottingham district was posted on the bulletin board under the castle at 10 a.m. on June 1, under the confusion of countless people, he dropped a sentence: "The second detachment decides who is the commander and will set off after tomorrow morning", he went directly down to the first detachment and the third detachment and set off, ignoring the confused soldiers of the second detachment, and led Leo and the second detachment out of the Nottingham Square area.

"Your Excellency, isn't that good? If you don't let Captain Richard take command of the second detachment, the second detachment without a commander is doomed to a crushing defeat! After leaving the city, Leo rode a black horse and asked with a worried face after seeing that there were not many soldiers beside Sun Lin.

"Who said there was no commander in the second detachment?"

"But you don't have ................ written on the bulletin board"

"Oh, tell me about this, if that's the case, you don't need to worry about it, I promise that the second detachment will elect their commander tomorrow morning, and I can also guarantee that guy will definitely make everyone in the second detachment obey him." Sun Lin rode Bai Xue and said very confidently, and the temperament revealed in his words made Leo have the urge to trust him completely, but the careful Leo still smelled a hint of playfulness from Sun Lin's words, and instantly felt that an ominous premonition was about to happen: "Your Excellency General? Do you ............. already know who will be the second team? ”

"Of course, I don't know how to get it, but .................."

"But what?"

"But the second detachment stationed at the 'God Blessed' gorge tonight should not be so calm............ Anyway, let's let them have a combat training before the battle, but which team will win the most? Is it the 3rd Chainmail Cavalry? Or the 2nd Longbowmen? Again............. but the worst loser of this should be the 2nd Hobila Rangers, if they win, it would be really unreasonable............. huh? Why have you been feeling a little stuffy in your chest lately? It stands to reason that the body made by the system will not invade except for the war wounds that cannot be eliminated, and other germs and the like? Is something going to happen? ”

"Your Excellency, General? What are you muttering? What does it mean to have a little stuffiness in ....... chest? ”

"Ahaha! What's a little stuffy in the chest? Why don't I know the way? Oh, look at us, this conversation has come to the end of the team, let's go, you have to know which team has the most orcs this time, but there are military merit rewards! I don't want to lose this game, let's go. ”

“…………… Well, follow your orders, Your Excellency. ”

…………………….

That night, as Sun Lin expected, there was a sudden noise under the originally calm "God Bless" canyon, and some unique horse sounds, and these sounds rang for more than half an hour before they ended, during which the most surprising thing for the soldiers and civilians in the Nottingham Castle area was that the two teams of hook and sickle soldiers who stayed in Nottingham Castle did not react after hearing the noise, as if nothing had happened, and even the next morning, when a group of people with blue noses and swollen faces, As the disheveled soldiers departed from the castle under the guidance of a mysterious man on a brown horse, the Hook and Scythe soldiers did not react, but some attentive citizens noticed that the team with the least number of casualties in the second detachment seemed to be the 2nd Hobila Rangers, and the figure of the mysterious commander seemed to have been seen somewhere................

At the same time, the first and third detachments led by Zalaku and Sun Lin also entered the northern desert area in turn between 8 o'clock and 11 o'clock in the morning on June 2, and the first team led by Zalaku and Richard entered first, and their target was a large oasis in the northwest of the desert, according to Zalaku's previous prediction, this large oasis raised more than 7,000 orcs, of which only more than 3,000 were young and middle-aged who could take up arms and fight. It can be said that it is the easiest way to run this battle, but maybe the truth will be the opposite............

And the northeast of the desert that Sun Lin's third detachment attacked are three small oases, and the font is finished on the map drawn by Zalaku with sand, although these three sandbanks are far apart, and the number of them together is not even 7,000, and the number of half-orc warriors it has is only more than 2,500 people, but what is a bit of a headache is that Juzaraku said that these three half-orc tribes are all allied with blood, if one of the tribes is attacked, At that time, the remaining two tribes will surely join the battlefield in half an hour to save their allies.

"It's not easy! Although our army is well-armed, the number of combatants is too small, and this is a rush battle, and the food and grass brought by the team is only enough to maintain the effect of our army for a maximum of 5 days, so it must be done quickly................ Leo, did Zalaku say that these orcs can make wooden fences or something? "Due to the hot weather, in addition to wearing armor on the body, Sun Lin and his human soldiers have taken off the sackcloth wrapped inside the body and put it on the camel (as early as when the desert was discovered, Sun Lin had exchanged gold coins from the system for many camel cubs to be cultivated in Nottingham District) and put on a big white robe outside, of course, this does not mean that they will be stupid enough to throw the sackcloth on the camel to reduce the amount of transportation, don't forget that the white angel in the desert is hot to death, but at night it is cold to death, As for Sun Lin, at this time, he had also removed the heavy plate armor, put on a relatively light set of half-body armor, and rode parallel with Leo to study the desert terrain map drawn in his hand with the first batch of white paper produced in the city of London.

"I'm sorry General, but if you want to use chainmail cavalry and Hobira Rangers for horse fighting, it's not possible, because those orcs not only build wooden fences, but according to Zaraku, they can even create spike barriers, and your Excellency, have you forgotten how small the tribe of uninhabited orcs is, they can always pull a team of wolf horse slingers from the tribe, and their influence on our cavalry troops is very great."

"Alas! It seems that the third plan can only be activated................ Leo, you lead the cavalry troops as much as possible after the battle on my side after a while, drag those reinforcements of the orc troops, but be sure to keep a distance, if they rush towards me, you will attack the tail of their team, to delay their march as much as possible, to buy time for me to set up a formation, this time we will come to a siege point to help! ”

"Yes!"
