The sword of the Wolf King, the blade and the sword body are made of the teeth of the king of grassland jackals and the exquisite steel privately collected by the blacksmith Lao Ao. It is tough and sharp.

Its hilt and scabbard are made of the bones of the prairie jackal king, and are extremely strong and durable.

It is wider and longer than the largest greatsword used by ordinary warriors, but much lighter.

It glows coldly and exudes a fierce murderous aura, and is born to be bloodthirsty.

"Old Ao, you are indeed an excellent blacksmith. No, I should call you a swordsmith. When I come back from the war, I will arrange a good job for you in the town."

"No, my noble master, my life is very happy. Now I can see my wife and children every day. I am very satisfied."

After hearing this, De Lassel said no more, but he was extremely satisfied with the sword. After thanking the blacksmith Lao Ao, he took the sword and prepared to set off.

The journey was relatively smooth this time. They did not encounter strong winds or rainstorms, nor did they encounter muddy swamps. In order to wait for Xiaonan to return to the team, De Lassel and his team slowed down their pace appropriately.

On the second night, when De Lassel set up camp, Xiao Nan successfully returned to the team. While Safiya was asleep, Xiao Nan sneaked up to De Lassel.

"Why are you sneaking around me? I don't like men."

"No, my noble master, you misunderstood! The Queen Ronnie asked me to tell you something..."

"What did she want to tell me?"

"She said, 500 is enough to get rid of her? Is this the value of a princess? She told you to clean your face and wait. The next time she sees you, she will give you a few big slaps in the face."

"Hahahaha, she's very humorous. Did she say anything else?"

"She also said that she knew you were going to fight again and that this time it would be very dangerous, and she hoped you would have a battle plan before taking action."

"Okay, I know what kind of enemy I'm facing. You can arrange for people to take turns on the night shift."

"Yes, my master." Xiao Nan nodded respectfully and turned to leave.

Apart from anything else, being debt-free is a relief. Although he only had 1,000 dinars in his hand, De La Serre felt extremely relieved.

At the current rate of advance, we will be able to reach Duckburg by tomorrow afternoon.

Looking into the distance, De Lacelle could actually hear a little bit of the sound of fighting. He estimated that the battle had already started ahead.

According to the information previously provided by Count Harun, our army had approximately four to five hundred men in this battle, and together with the enemy, there were approximately one thousand men fighting in the front.

If I go now, I will be cannon fodder, and Count Harun won't be able to see me and won't know that I went to help him.

It would be better to arrive later, wait until the enemy is tired, suddenly charge out, disrupt the enemy, and then turn around and leave.

It can also effectively avoid excessive casualties among his own troops. This is what De Lassel is currently planning in his mind.

As he thought about it, De La Salle's eyelids began to droop and he soon fell asleep. The night passed just like that...

The time came to the morning of the last day of the appointment.

De La Serre's troops slowly advanced forward. The sound of fighting ahead became louder and louder, and the two sides were fighting fiercely.

The scale of the battle was so huge that De La Ser could not see the situation clearly for a moment, so he arranged:

"Xiao Nan, go and scout first to see how the battle is going. Don't go too deep. Remember to come back as soon as possible."

"Yes, my master." Xiao Nan nodded respectfully and hurried away.

"Ah." At this time, the young dragon Ryan began to cry out.

[Why don't you go investigate yourself and send your brothers to take risks? You are really unkind. 】

De La Serre had a serious expression and said in all seriousness: "Ryan, we are on the battlefield now and I need to command the troops. Stop joking."

“Ah…”

[Okay, I understand...]

Safiya touched Ryan's head and whispered, "Don't affect the Baron's performance at the critical moment~"

“Oh.”

[I know, I know, I know my limits.]

An incense stick of time passed, Xiao Nan came back and reported:

"We are in a great advantage, with about 300 men left. The Swadian Knights are very powerful, and they are defeating the enemy."

De La Serre looked calm and continued to ask: "How many enemy troops are there?"

"No more than 200 at most. Earl Harlan's troops were at the front and performed bravely."

"Are you sure the enemy didn't pretend to retreat and ambush from behind? They know they can't defeat the Swadian Knights if they charge head-on."

"This... Baron, please forgive me, I really can't judge." Xiao Nan is just a brave knight after all, and this is not his area of ​​expertise.

De La Ser nodded slightly, signaling Xiao Nan to return to the team. After thinking for a moment, he said to Safiya:

"I believe the enemy is not that stupid. Look at Nayan Tulu before. He was so cunning, strategic and courageous."

Recalling the previous battles in Xiko Village and Uxhall, Safia felt that this was indeed the case.

"Baron, you are right. There must be more than one lord of the Khergit Khanate on the other side. It is impossible that all of them are fools. How could they blindly charge into battle?"

"But I think Count Harlan is a smart commander and he will definitely consider these things. If he goes deep into the enemy's territory alone, there is only one reason for it."

"What's the reason?" Safiya didn't understand what the Baron meant.

"He probably thinks that even if the other side has an ambush, he can eliminate the ambushing troops together." De Lassel thought this was the only possibility.

After comprehensive consideration, De La Serre ordered: "Let's wait and see. Now is not the best time to attack."

[Extra rewards: Tactics skill +1, Charm +1. ]

【Evaluation: You really analyzed the situation carefully and faced it calmly this time. You performed very well. 】

[The "Tactics" skill allows your troops to temporarily improve their combat capabilities during combat.]

[For example, if you and the enemy are both 1 level 1 Swadian recruit, and you have the skill "Tactics 1" and the enemy does not, your recruit will eventually kill the enemy.]

Well, system, your explanation is very detailed. It means that under the same level and the same number, whoever has a higher "Tactics" skill can kill the other.

It seems that this skill is very useful, De Lassel thought secretly.

Sure enough, after another hour, De Lassel clearly felt that the enemy suddenly became more powerful.

He looked carefully and saw that the enemy had nearly a hundred Kugit cavalry troops rushing out from both sides, with about 50 people on each side.

These Kugit cavalry quickly outflanked and ambushed our rear army, which was mainly composed of crossbowmen and infantry and could not resist the trampling of the war horses at all.
