In the shadows, an army marches in silence.

The setting moon curiously lifted the dark clouds and looked down, and the flag carried by the standard-bearer who pulled the war horse was embroidered with the knight family coat of arms belonging to the Sad Wind Collar.

The knights at the forefront were calm and calm, this civil war actually didn't have much to do with them, but as one of the conditions for the independence of the Sad Wind Leader, they wanted to help Krylov III win this battle, and what they were doing now was to solve the ambush in front of them.

Through the information sent back by the spies, they knew that the new head of the Valho family had sent someone to ambush and harass them, but unfortunately, those nobles really couldn't resist the temptation, and they were easily tricked.

This time the enemy was led by 'Ogilvy Glock', a cousin of the Duke of Valho and said to be a knight who was good at war.

Now they were stationed not close to the route that the king's army was about to pass, and if they wanted to ambush them, they would have to pass through a rough mountain road, but this was also a helpless move, after all, the Krull Plain occupied a large part of the Valho Territory, and until the main city of Valho Lord, 'Nogrod', it was almost a plain landform.

If they want to do an ambush, they have to do it, otherwise they will be easily discovered, and the ambush will be meaningless.

The previous scouts were also the people of the Grim Wind Leader, and the soldiers of the Sad Wind Leader were very good at fighting, although this was the first time they had fought against humans, but in their eyes, these humans were not much different from those cunning monsters and monsters in the Black Forest.

They weren't always on the defensive when they were in the Sorrowful Wind Territory, and the last beast tide was just because the time was not right, so they were a little caught off guard.

They prefer to attack aggressively rather than defend passively, and compared to the cunning monsters in the Black Forest, these humans are not qualified, and even the monsters are smarter than these humans.

The 'tired tactics' they now use are what they learned from the monsters - when they are stationed in the field to rest, there will always be monsters coming to harass them, and when they are numb and tired, the monsters will rush up and break their camp and defenses in one fell swoop.

What puzzled the knights was that even if these enemies didn't have much experience in warfare, hadn't they dealt with wolves?

If they've dealt with wolves, then why haven't they had a countermeasure?

Judging from the information sent back by the scouts in front, after the two attacks, they barely reacted much, and even the soldiers of the night watch were not startled by the sudden arrow shot from a corner.

Even though this is what they want, they always feel that there may be fraud in it.

If the leader is really a general who is good at leading troops to fight, then why hasn't he done anything so far?

Therefore, the knights of the Sorrowful Wind Leader marched in silence while guarding against possible calculations and ambushes.

They had long since been well rested, and were now very energetic, while the enemy was a group of weary men who had been awakened many times in the middle of the night, and they were all a group of miscellaneous soldiers, and according to their past experience, the private soldiers of the nobility were often not very capable of fighting.

They had enough equipment and supplies, and if the raid was unsuccessful, they could turn to harassment, and in the morning, according to their agreement with Krylov III, they would send an army to support them while they were marching, and by that time either side would have been exhausted, but by this time they had a support army on their side, and they would have won anyway.

They all brought horses, and because it was a 'support' operation, they did not have many soldiers from the Sorrowful Wind Tie, plus they themselves only had a hundred men, and tonight's operation was a surprise attack, counting themselves, only the elite of the forty elites came to carry out the night attack, so they only brought forty horses.

It doesn't take too many people to attack a military camp at night, what they need to do is not annihilate, they even need to delay time, as long as they can delay time, then the enemy's ambush plan will fail.

If the situation allows, they will bring an extra horse with each person, but the situation does not allow this.

It is known that there are spellcasters in the enemy army, and they must have already set up defensive spells and magic circles before going to bed, and there will be no shortage of triggered magic mechanisms.

Although they are knights, they are not ignorant of spellcasters, and they know very well the tricks commonly used by mages, not to mention who they are used against.

At first, of course, they won't let their horses appear, and when the enemy thinks they are lurking, they suddenly turn on their horses and turn around with a short charge, which can definitely kill the enemy by surprise.

Being able to defeat the enemy army is the best outcome, if not, then try to delay as much as possible!

It was late at night, but the soldiers who had woken up several times could not sleep, and they were physically exhausted and mentally sleepy, and now they were in a very bad state.

At the time of the second 'hostile attack' alarm, they had already tried to chase down the enemy who had come to harass them, but they hadn't learned how to track them in the woods in the middle of the night, so of course, they were lost!

Later, they chased two or three more times, but they still didn't see anyone, and they naturally didn't know that the enemies these scouts needed to deal with were not at the same level as them, so of course they didn't know why their enemies were able to run so fast.

Even now, they don't know who exactly their enemies are.

Not only were they uncomfortable, but neither were the mercenaries, who could have had a good rest, but they were all disturbed by the soldiers.

Often, they were woken up by reactivated soldiers not long after they fell asleep, causing them to lose their sleepiness now.

I didn't feel sleepy, and I didn't dare to sleep anymore.

Looking at the situation, the enemy has already figured out where they are, and perhaps even the composition and number of troops, and it seems to them that a battle is very likely to take place tonight.

If it was just simple harassment, it wouldn't have been so frequent at all, and it was almost early in the morning, and if there wasn't a sneak attack tonight, those enemies wouldn't have needed to continue harassment for so long.

This is judged by past experience and the influence of intuition, no matter what those soldiers think, the mercenaries have already packed up their things and picked up their weapons, even the casters have begun to prepare spells, and the negative state caused by lack of sleep can be temporarily offset by potions, as long as they can make up for sleep well afterwards, compared to the side effects, or their own lives are more important.

Although they are 'war hyenas', they don't think that they will survive if they don't participate in this battle, that's unrealistic!

Ogilvy Glock pinched his eyebrows, feeling that something was wrong.

I wanted the lads to have a good rest, otherwise the already difficult task would become completely impossible.

Those damn 'mage sissies', and those damned 'noble fat guys', if they hadn't dragged down the march, they would have arrived here long ago.

Now he had reason to suspect that it was those dead fat men who had exposed the news, otherwise how could such a secret operation be known to the enemy?

They set off in the early morning, their stand-in should have gone to a dinner party in the evening, and the barracks had also instructed them to 'business as usual', even if the food was wasted in breakfast, noon, and dinner, so that the ambush plan could go smoothly.

Already so secretive, how did the enemy find out about them?

After thinking about it, Ogilvy Glock suspected the nobles.

He is a soldier, and he is very disgusted with those dead fat people who are still 'arrogant and lascivious' at such a time, and he didn't want to suspect them, but only they are the most suspicious!

But if they were not brought with them, their privates would not obey his commands.

"Enemy attack—"

Ogilvy Glock was stunned for a moment when he heard the voice, and he didn't react until the voice stopped abruptly.

He grabbed the shield and sword that he had set aside, and rushed out of the tent, the first thing he saw was the 'warrior' who was armed with the same half-body armor and holding the sword and shield.

He also saw a blade fly out of the warrior's sword, and it flew directly towards the mage's tent.

Ogilvy Glock silently lifted the knight's shield and began to charge.

Bang!

The shield collided with the air blade, and the shield in front of Ogilvy Glock did not shake in the slightest.

"Juggernaut?" Ogilvy Glock asked.

"Knight!" Knight Tosoro made a knightly salute, "Kem Tosoro, Knight of the Storm Leader!"

Ogilvy Glock knew he couldn't dodge, and if he didn't do it, the knight in front of him would be able to slaughter the entire camp alone.

"Ogilvy Glock, Valio Knight!"

The next moment, the two swords clashed, and sparks bloomed.
