Chapter 674: Su Cheng Arrives!

"The enemy this time is a 300,000-strong army commanded by Dominic, the first marshal of the Holy Hiran Empire."

Willy said loudly to everyone present.

"So don't be careless and be cautious no matter what."

Resisting the southern invasion of 300,000 Xilan troops - this was too much pressure and responsibility, and Willy had to become more steady.

Don’t seek a big victory, just be safe and sound.

Samuel's idea just now seemed to be very good. He took the initiative to send their cavalry out of the fortress to attack the vanguard of Hiran's army.

But this is far from being a safer thing than guarding the Avalon Fortress from beginning to end and being a complete tortoise.

Therefore, Willie did not intend to adopt Samuel's strategy and preferred Gary's idea.

"Alas..." Willy couldn't help but sigh.

I thought to myself:

——It would be great if the regiment leader was here. If the regiment leader were here, what kind of strategy would he draw up to deal with the enemy...

——Where is the leader now... How long will it take to get back...

Willy has never been so eager for Su Cheng to come back as he is now.

When he really began to command an army of 120,000 people and fight such a large-scale battle, Willy deeply experienced how inadequate his abilities were.

Previously, the largest battle that Willy had commanded was the "Summer Wind" offensive that assisted Su Cheng in commanding 40,000 people two years ago.

Willy, who had never commanded an army of more than 100,000 men, was not confident that he could command the 120,000 soldiers of the Knights of Michael to fight against the 300,000 soldiers of the Holy Hiran Empire.

"Commander!"

Willie yelled outside the room.

As soon as Willy finished speaking, the door was opened immediately, and a messenger walked in quickly.

Outside the door, more than a dozen messengers were waiting for the possible arrival of Willy and others.

"Go find out where the leader is!"

Willy ordered to the messenger.

"Ask the captain to rush back to the fortress as quickly as possible!"

"yes!"

After receiving Willy's order, the messenger immediately retreated and prepared to carry out the task that Willy had just given.

This battle would not be possible without Su Cheng - this is the consensus of all the knights of the Michael Knights.

Su Cheng is the backbone of their Michael Knights, and he is also the only commander among them who has commanded an army of nearly 100,000 people.

As long as Su Cheng is here, they will feel very at ease - Su Cheng is so important.

At this moment, just as the messenger had just left, a petite figure broke into the room where a military meeting was being held.

It's Vivian who currently serves as the "Knights Chronicle".

Vivian's current job is to assist in conveying orders within the Knights and guiding guests.

After breaking into the room, Vivian said in an excited tone:

"Your Excellency, Deputy Commander! Mr. Su has rushed back to the fortress! He has now entered the fortress and is heading towards the headquarters!"

After hearing what Vivian said, Willy didn't react immediately:

——Mr. Su? Who?

--ah! right! Miss Vivian has always been accustomed to calling the group leader Mr. Su.

--etc……

——Head of the group? !

Willy's eyes suddenly opened wide:

"Really?!"

After saying that, Willy held onto the knight's sword on his left waist and walked quickly outside the headquarters.

The other knights, especially Alyssa, also filed out with joy on their faces and walked towards the outside of the headquarters.

As soon as everyone arrived at the gate of the Knights' headquarters, they saw a carriage parked steadily in front of the headquarters.

The two good horses pulling the cart and the horses surrounding the guards were panting heavily and covered in hot sweat.

The driver responsible for pulling the cart and the guards on horseback all around also looked tired.

As soon as the carriage stopped, the door of the carriage was opened.

The person who stepped out of the carriage was none other than Su Cheng, who had not returned to Avalon Fortress for five months since returning to DìDū at the end of last year!

Just after Su Cheng's car entered the northern territory, he received news that the Holy Hiran Empire claimed to launch an 800,000-strong army to invade the south.

After receiving the news, Su Cheng did not panic too much, but immediately ordered to speed up.

Time for eating, time for sleeping... These resting times can be compressed as much as possible.

The main reason why Su Cheng was able to come back so quickly was because of Humphrey's help.

When he received the news of the Holy Hiran Empire's southern invasion, Humphrey knew that Su Cheng was still on his way back.

Therefore, he ordered all the cities in the north to be prepared to welcome Su Cheng, and to prepare horses and wheels for Su Cheng to replace.

As soon as Su Cheng arrives at a city, the city lord of that city must immediately change the horses for Su Cheng and his guards so that Su Cheng can continue on his way.

Su Cheng changed horses without changing people and raced all the way, and finally managed to get back to the fortress before the vanguard of the Holy Hiran Empire arrived at the fortress.

Su Cheng felt very tired from riding all the way.

So when he got off the carriage, Su Cheng's face didn't look good.

But even if he didn't know the specific situation of the current battle, Su Cheng also knew that the time was very urgent, and he couldn't delay even a second, and he couldn't even take a rest.

After getting off the carriage, he didn't say anything nonsense to Willy and others who came to greet him, but immediately walked into the headquarters and towards the command room.

And Willy and the others knew that this was not the time for greetings and chatting, so when they saw Su Cheng walking into the headquarters without saying a word, they followed Su Cheng and returned to the headquarters with him.

When he walked into the headquarters, Su Cheng found a familiar golden figure among the knights who came to greet him.

It was Alyssa, who had been away for 5 months.

After 5 months, Alyssa's hair was a little shorter.

If the situation allowed, Su Cheng would like to talk to his wife who he hadn't seen for a long time, but unfortunately - the situation did not allow it.

Therefore, Su Cheng could only show Alyssa a slightly apologetic smile, then turned away and walked quickly into the headquarters.

When walking towards the command room, Willy followed Su Cheng closely without waiting for Su Cheng to ask, and took the initiative to report to Su Cheng:

"The Holy Xilan Empire claims to have sent 800,000 troops, but according to reports from scouts and spies, the Xilan Army's combat troops are only 300,000."

"The Xilan Army's vanguard troops total 50,000 people, and have now arrived 20 miles north of the fortress, which is very close."

"The 3rd Army and the 4th Army stationed at the 2nd and 1st bases have now all arrived at the fortress, and all the troops of the Michael Knights - a total of 120,000 troops have been assembled at the fortress."

"The Northern Frontier General Administration is now working quickly and has begun to raise and allocate supplies to reinforce us. This morning, the first batch of supply transport teams has transported a batch of medical supplies. The day after tomorrow, there will be a second batch of supply transport teams arriving at the fortress, and the second batch of supply transport teams will deliver a batch of meat products."

...

Willie quickly reported all the important information to Su Cheng.

After reporting all the important intelligence, everyone just arrived in the command room.

Su Cheng walked to where Willy had just stood and looked at the huge map hanging on the wall.

While digesting all the information Willy had just reported to him, he stared at the map of the Aighar Corridor in front of him.

All the knights, including Willy, Alyssa, and Deng Jiaer, stood silently behind Su Cheng, waiting for Su Cheng to speak.

After seeing Su Cheng's figure at the door of the headquarters just now, most of the haze and worries on everyone's faces immediately disappeared.

This is Su Cheng's power - as long as he shows up, he can make these knights who have been on the battlefield for a long time feel at ease.
