Britannia's 5,000-strong expeditionary force, after traveling all morning, is now repairing and having lunch, and every soldier is silently eating the food in the bowl.

Coach's camp.

"There are three leaders in the rebel army, namely Anton, Abel, and Abt. They are now divided into three armies. Each of the three of them leads one arm. Anton is the most capable of the three.

He is also the most prestigious, so he commands the most troops and horses. He leads 15,000 people, and his current position should be here."

After the captain of the thousand-man team finished speaking, he stretched out his finger and touched a certain part of the map on the table.

Su Cheng looked at where the captain of the Thousand-Man Team was pointing and nodded.

"Well, continue."

"And Abel led 10,000 people, and his position was probably here."

"Um."

"Abut leads the smallest number of people, with a total of 5,000 people. His position is probably here."

"Um."

Su Cheng looked at the map in front of him thoughtfully, and then said:

"Judging from the advance routes of their three armies, their goal is Cordoba."

"My subordinates think so too," said the captain of the Thousand-Man Team. "Cordoba has a large amount of supplies and a small number of soldiers, so it is the most suitable target."

Su Cheng nodded.

"Well, I understand all the current information. Thank you for your explanation. You can go out first."

"yes."

After the captain of the thousand-man team went out, Su Cheng's originally straight waist immediately bent down, and the original cold look on his face disappeared and was replaced by a tired look.

"Ah...the armor is so heavy." Su Cheng twisted his neck, "I've been wearing it for more than a week, and I still can't get used to it."

Although Su Cheng is not even a soldier, he is now the commander-in-chief of an army, so His Majesty the Emperor gave Su Cheng a set of armor that only knights can wear.

It is a very handsome set of armor in white and blue.

The armor of knights in this world is very different from the armor of knights in Europe. The shoulder armor of knights in this world is very large, and it is not the kind of "iron can" armor, and there are many places on the body that are missing.

Guarded by armor.

The ranks of soldiers in the Britannia Empire are very simple and easy to remember.

The lowest level in the army of the Britannia Empire is the ordinary soldier. The next one is the captain of the ten-man team, the next one is the captain of the centurion team, then the captain of the five-hundred-man team, and the next one is the thousand-man team captain.

team leader.

Above the captain of the thousand-man team is the knight.

If you can be promoted from the captain of the Thousand-Man Corps to the lowest new knight among the knights, it means that you have successfully entered the ranks of senior officers.

But there are many people who are stuck in the process of being promoted from captain to knight, and never get promoted to knight throughout their lives.

Su Cheng now commands 5,000 people, so there are 5 thousand-man team captains. The person who just explained the current intelligence to Su Cheng was one of these 5 people.

Su Cheng originally thought that these five people, who had risen to the rank of captain of a thousand-man team by continuously accumulating military merit, would be very unhappy with him, a person who was not even a soldier, but could command them.

However, he was overly worried. None of the five captains of the Thousand-Man Team had shown any ill feelings towards Su Cheng. Instead, they were strictly abiding by the orders given by Su Cheng.

Not only the five thousand-man captains, but also the 5,000 soldiers below showed no ill feelings towards Su Cheng and did not obey or disobey Su Cheng's orders.

Su Cheng ordered the whole army to set out, and the whole army set out immediately. When he ordered the whole army to rest, the whole army rested immediately.

It can be seen that His Majesty the Emperor did not just hand over 5,000 unruly soldiers to Su Cheng, but instead handed over 5,000 elite troops who would strictly abide by orders to Su Cheng.

Thinking of this, Su Cheng's pressure became even greater. Any small mistake on his part could very well lead to the annihilation of this elite force of 5,000 people.

Moreover, although they were elite troops, the three waves of crusade troops sent before were also elite troops. These three waves of elite troops were defeated even though they were numerically superior.

But this time, the army led by Su Cheng not only did not have a numerical advantage, but was also at a huge disadvantage.

Thinking of this, Su Cheng felt even more stressed.

"So, brother, have you thought of a way to defeat the enemy?" Alan, who had been standing silently behind Su Cheng just now, said.

Su Cheng smiled bitterly.

"No, I can't think of anything."

"After all, we have to rely on 5,000 people to fight 30,000 people," Deng Jiaer frowned, "the strength gap of 1:6 is not so easy to find a solution to."

Su Cheng also brought Alan and Deng Jiaer.

This time, Alan and Deng Jiaer participated in the battle as Su Cheng's knight retinue.

A knight's retinue is a knight's retinue.

Each knight in the Britannia Empire can have 2 knight retinues. When the knights go to the battlefield, they can bring their own knight retinues with them to the battlefield.

If the retinue has made meritorious service on the battlefield, military merit will still be calculated for the retinue. When the military merit is accumulated to a certain level, the retinue can officially convert from knight retinue to knight.

Therefore, many people who dream of becoming knights are eager to become a knight's retinue of a certain knight, because it is easier to become a knight as a knight's retinue than as a soldier.

Therefore, knight's retinue can be regarded as an extremely popular profession. Whenever a knight openly recruits people to be his knight's retinue, there are often thousands of applicants. However, a knight can only have 2

Since then, the competition can be said to be quite fierce.

When Alan and Deng Jiaer learned that Su Cheng was going to lead 5,000 people to quell the 30,000 rebels, they had to follow him life or death.

Alan said he wanted to protect Su Cheng, while Deng Jiaer, who dreams of becoming a powerful general, said he wanted to experience more of the feeling of being in the army.

Su Cheng couldn't defeat them, so he asked the emperor for instructions and asked if he could be merciful and allow him to take them two with him.

Emperor Gozewen was also happy. Although Su Cheng was not a knight at all and was not qualified to have a knight's retinue, Gozewen also made an exception and allowed Alan and Deng Jiaer to follow him as "Su Cheng's knight retinue"

Go to the battlefield with Su Cheng.

Alan sighed.

"Hey, brother, why do you want to take on such a dangerous mission? But it's too late to say anything now. Let's find a way to deal with the 30,000 rebels together first. But apart from fighting, there is nothing I am good at.

, it’s okay for me to fight 100 people by myself, but it’s impossible for me to fight 30,000 people by myself... huh? Brother?"

Alan noticed that his brother suddenly seemed to be in a daze, looking intently at the map on the table in front of him, his eyes scanning around the map.

Not only Su Cheng, but also Deng Jiaer was stunned at this time, staring at the map in front of him and mumbling something, but Alan couldn't hear what she was saying.

Alan opened her mouth and was about to say something, but she quickly closed it because her intuition told her that it was best not to disturb these two people now.

It took an unknown amount of time before Su Cheng spoke aloud, but his eyes still did not leave the map:

"Those three armies are moving too fast...as if they are in a hurry."

As soon as Su Cheng finished speaking, Deng Jiaer echoed without raising his head:

"Yes, they were walking too fast."

Alan swallowed. She felt that Su Cheng and Deng Jiaer were exuding a strange aura. Alan did not dare to make a sound and could only watch quietly, still watching intently.

Two people on the map.

After a while, Su Cheng moved Reality away from the map and raised his head. The tired look on his face had disappeared, and a confident smile appeared on his face.

"I seem to have found a way to defeat these 30,000 troops."

At this time, Deng Jiaer also raised his head, with a smile on his face.
