Chapter 747: El Turns the Tide (Part 2)
When Alan led the cavalry back to Muhawicz Fortress, they were greeted with cheers that almost overturned the sky.
Willy and other generals saw Alan's heroic performance on the city wall.
They were stunned - this was their expression after seeing Alan leading his troops into the Xilan army's formation.
Alan's bravery not only exceeded the imagination of Xilan's army, but also exceeded the expectations of their own people.
Originally, Alan just wanted to "fight quickly and retreat quickly" and launch an assault on Xilan's army to scare the generals of Xilan's army and kill their morale and fighting spirit.
As a result, Alan led the cavalry into the Xilan army's formation and could not stop.
Breaking through five formations in one breath, they fought all the way to Xilan's main formation.
There are millions of soldiers in the North, but not one of them is a hero. Alan's bold words were not only heard by the generals of the Xilan Army in the main formation, but also by everyone in the Muhawicz Fortress. arrive.
It was only then that everyone realized that they had underestimated Alan before.
They had always thought that Alan was just a little girl with good skills.
But now they know - Alan is a very skilled brother and girl, she is simply the incarnation of the Valkyrie!
Like her brother, he has the ability to "ask you to buy a bag of rice, but you end up buying a warehouse full of rice."
After this battle, Alan's status in the Knights of Michael skyrocketed. Everyone, including Willy, couldn't help but salute and say honorifics after seeing Alan.
Compared with the morale boost of the Michael Knights, the situation of the Hiran Army is much worse.
Under Alan's attack, Xilan's army suffered numerous casualties, conservatively estimated to have resulted in thousands of casualties.
Regardless of these casualties, the biggest damage caused to Xilan's army was a serious blow to their morale and fighting spirit.
From high-ranking generals to ordinary soldiers, they were all deeply shocked by Alan's bravery.
Faced with the declining morale of the entire army, Dominic was anxious.
But there was nothing we could do.
Due to the decline in morale and the increase in the morale of the Michael Knights, the attack on the Muhawicz Fortress became increasingly difficult.
No matter how hard Dominic tried his best, he was unable to recapture the Muhawicz Fortress that originally belonged to the Hiran people.
The days passed day after day, and the supplies stored in Xilan's army also decreased bit by bit.
Finally - Xilan's army ran out of supplies.
…
…
A few days later.
Somewhere at the southern foothills of the Eghar Mountains.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhh!!"
The disheveled Gabriel raised his hands,
Roaring to the sky.
"I finally conquered the Eghar Mountains! I finally crossed the Eghar Mountains!!"
"If you can climb to the top of the Eghar Mountains, or climb over from the highest point of the Eghar Mountains, you will be able to conquer the Eghar Mountains." El, who was also unkempt on the other side, added in a low voice.
Although the reaction was smaller than that of Gabriel, El was also full of joy.
Because they finally successfully led 2,000 elite soldiers across the Eghar Mountains and arrived in the Britannia Empire!
Along the way, we also went through hardships and dangers. We walked through countless roads that were not taken by humans, and suffered a total of 139 casualties before and after. We finally successfully crossed the Eghar Mountains! Entering the Britannia Empire!
El and the others were lucky. As soon as they arrived at the southern foot of the Eghar Mountains, they encountered a clear river.
El and Gabriel led the remaining soldiers to the river and filled the kettles with clean water. After using the water from the river to wash away the dirt on their cheeks and hair, El said to Gabriel :
"Gabriel, follow me. We have to figure out our current position first, and let the soldiers rest for a while. After we figure out our current position, we can go to the rear of Avalon Fortress."
"Okay, let's go!"
El let the soldiers rest where they were, took Gabriel and 50 soldiers who were responsible for guarding and protecting his personal safety, and set out to find out where he was now.
However, just after El and others passed through a forest——
Then he saw a group of Britannian Army soldiers who seemed to be patrolling in the wild.
El also knew something about the army of the Britannia Empire, and knew that the army of the Britannia Empire was divided into first-line and second-line troops.
The frontline troops of the Britannian Empire are the soldiers of its four major knights-the Knights of Michael, the Knights of Gabriel, the Knights of Rachel and the newly established Knights of Uriel in recent years.
The second-line troops of the Britannia Empire are troops stationed in various cities, also known as "garrisons". Compared with the soldiers of the Knights, the combat effectiveness of the garrison troops is very poor, and they are basically old and weak. Being sick and disabled, there is no way to go to the battlefield. The best he can do is fight bandits.
If you go to fight bandits, you might even be defeated by them.
Last year, a large-scale banditry broke out in the western part of the Britannia Empire. A large number of soldiers stationed in the west were mobilized, but they failed to quell the banditry smoothly.
In the end, it was the central government that dispatched the Uriel Knights and armored warriors to successfully quell the banditry in the west.
With just one glance, El recognized the unit they encountered as soldiers from the garrison of the Britannia Empire.
Because their spirit, their movements, and the sophistication of their equipment were all incomparable to the soldiers of the Knights of Michael that he had seen.
Encountering the Britannia Army in the wild was completely beyond El's expectation.
Their whereabouts must not be exposed.
Therefore, although he felt a little reluctant, El quickly ordered Gabriel and the 50 soldiers he brought with him to kill the Britannia Army.
This Britannia Army had only 20 people, not only was its combat effectiveness far lower than theirs, but also its number was far less than theirs.
Therefore, the battle ended quickly.
However, in a flash, only one person was left standing on the Britannia Army side.
This Britannia Army soldier, who was the only one left, was a white-haired veteran.
Perhaps he was a veteran who retired from the Knights due to age or injury, so he had some knowledge and recognized that the people in front of him were soldiers of the Holy Hilan Empire.
Holding the sword tightly in his hand, he glared at the surrounding Hiran soldiers and cursed:
"You bastards! How did you get to the territory of the Britannia Empire!"
"Don't be so proud, you bastards! Your 300,000 troops were defeated by us and besieged in the Aighar Corridor. You rats who didn't know how to enter the country will soon be wiped out by our Captain Cheng!"
The old soldier didn't know that some of the Hiran people around him could understand Britannia.
As soon as the old soldier finished speaking, El couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
He squeezed the surrounding soldiers and came to the old soldier, asking in fluent Britannia:
"300,000 Hiran troops were defeated and besieged in the Aighar Corridor? What's going on?"
