"Your Highness, Baron Bader of the Tuput Forest sent someone to report... saying that a team with the Lagran Dragon flag is coming from the east. There are about a hundred people, well-equipped and they all seem to be professionals of a high level!" Renault suddenly lifted the tent and came in.
"What?" Roland, who was originally teasing the Smurf in his hand, immediately changed his face to a black question mark. Roland carefully searched his memory and it seemed that perhaps he had not sent troops to the east of Tuput Forest?
"No way..." Roland's eyes suddenly lit up. It seemed that he had signed in for a plot event not long ago - the Crusades!
"Could it be that the remnants of the Crusaders have fled here?" Roland made a bold guess, and his guess was exactly the truth.
"Prepare the horses, I'll go take a look!" Roland finally decided to go and take a look himself. However, Roland had probably already determined the identity of this remnant army. It should be the Eastern Expedition Army of the Principality of Nyx.
"However, I wonder what happened to Grand Duke Nyx... It would be a shame if he was killed like in history!" Roland shook his head slightly. After all, Grand Duke Nyx was indeed good-looking and could be considered a goddess for otakus.
"My lord, what are you thinking about? About the army coming from the East?" The ace lackey, Caslo, asked considerately.
"Yes, that's true, but I have a rough guess about the identity of this unit. They should be soldiers from the Principality of Nyx..." Roland said casually.
"Ah? The easternmost principality of the empire?" Kaslo exclaimed in surprise. This was a bit outrageous! The Lagran Empire had collapsed, so how did the tiny Principality of Nix survive? Kaslo expressed his confusion...
"Hehe~" Roland smiled mysteriously.
Accompanied by the crisp sound of horse hooves, Roland and Caslo led the El Nino Rangers on the road to the east.
…
"What's going on?" Roland's eyes revealed fatigue. He patted his armor casually, and the dust on his body immediately fell off. Roland and his companions had been riding at full speed all the way and had not had a good rest at all.
"Your Highness, please take a rest first!" Balder looked at Roland's bloodshot eyes and comforted him.
"No problem! Where's the army flying the Lagrange banner? I want to see them!" Roland waved his hand to interrupt Balder. He just wanted to see the true strength of this group that had defected to him. Remember, there was once a knightly order within this Crusade! Roland thought the army that had broken through must be the Knights of the Cross and Bauhinia. After all, the others didn't have that much strength. As for why they weren't riding horses, it might be because the fierce battle had reduced them from cavalry to infantry...
"Okay, Your Highness. They are stationed not far ahead!" Balder had no choice but to lead Roland and his party to where Nyx and others were stationed.
"Hmm! A well-organized camp! Although small, it has all the functions!" Caslo examined the camp in front of him. When he saw the wooden walls made of logs and the arrow towers standing at the four corners, he immediately felt a stronger sense of identity with this army.
"It should be one of us. This method of setting up the wooden wall is unique to us Lagran!" With the eyesight of a dragon knight, Kaslo noticed the appearance and position of the ropes fixed on the wooden wall and nodded slightly. After all, each race and force has different methods of setting up camp.
The group slowly stopped 200 meters from the camp. The reason for choosing this distance was to guard against heavy javelins and armor-piercing lances, which posed the greatest threat to the knights! (In reality, archers of the same rank had little deterrent effect on knights; they could hardly inflict a fatal blow. Conversely, melee classes like warriors and those equipped with javelins and lances posed a deadly threat to a single knight!)
