The 10th Army was at the front.

Su Cheng could already feel the cool breeze carrying water vapor blowing on his face.

We’re almost there! We’ll reach the Illun Ferry in another 5 miles!

"Ugh...it's so cold." Alan complained about the cold wind and shrank his shoulders.

After more than ten days of trekking, it was still late October when we set off, and now it is November.

After entering November, Su Cheng felt that the temperature had begun to drop significantly, and it had begun to slowly enter winter.

Su Cheng took a rough feel and found that the current temperature was probably between 13 and 18 degrees.

However, the Britannian Empire had already prepared for the possible drop in temperature. Before the army set off, it had already mobilized enough cold-resistant clothing, stoves, and coal for an army of 100,000 people, so the army did not need it. Worried about the drop in temperature.

However, Alan has always been afraid of the cold, so although she had already worn enough cold-proof clothes under her armor, she still couldn't help but shrink her shoulders when the cool breeze blew.

"Brother!" Alan stretched out his hands towards Su Cheng with a grimace, "My hands are so cold!"

Su Cheng helplessly took Alan's cold hands and gently rubbed them to warm them up.

"Please bear with it a little longer, Alan. Wow, your hands are so cold. Why are you so intolerant of freezing... I'll buy you a pair of gloves when I return to Pendragon."

"Hey, brother's hands are so warm."

"Wow...Mom, help me, there is a brother and sister showing off their intimacy here." Deng Jiaer on the side held his forehead and complained.

"We are almost at the Ilon Ferry." Su Cheng said, "The coach Nicholas also sent the latest information just now: Allen has deployed tens of thousands of heavy troops to guard the east bank of the Ilon Ferry. We can walk about 5 miles to get there. We have arrived at the Ferry of Iron, so the battle will begin soon, so you two need to be ready."

"Brother," Alan said suddenly, "Is that Allen Jones very strong? Why does it feel like everyone around him is so afraid of him."

"Yes, this Allen Jones is very scary."

Su Cheng continued to rub Alan's hands, and then said: "We have two biggest threats in this battle. One is Alan Jones who currently commands the 80,000-strong army of the Carolingian Kingdom, and the other is Alan who brought from the Frankish Empire. 4,000 armored holy cavalry are coming."

"Alan Jones was a famous general in the Frank Empire. He not only had extraordinary strategic and commanding abilities, but also was extremely brave. He was especially good at commanding cavalry. He was a terrifying general with both wisdom and courage. In battle, he even liked He took the lead and personally led the cavalry charge. Because of his bravery, he was given the nickname 'Steel'."

"In the past ten years, in the war between our Britannia Empire and the Frank Empire, Allen's performance has been extremely dazzling, which has caused our Britannia Empire to suffer a lot, so our Britannia Empire has suffered a lot. Many people in the Ya Empire are afraid of Allen."

"As for the armored holy cavalry, they are the ace troops of the Frank Empire. Like the Holy Shiran Empire, the Frank Empire borders the prairie in the east. The prairie is rich in good horses. The Frank Empire will regularly purchase good horses from the prairie people on the prairie. Therefore, the Frank Empire used these excellent horses purchased from the grasslands to form a powerful cavalry force."

At this time, Alan answered: "It's the Iron Armored Holy Cavalry, right?"

"Well, that's right." Su Cheng nodded, "The Frankish Empire formed a 20,000-strong heavy cavalry force, which is the Iron Armored Holy Cavalry. The Iron Armored Holy Cavalry is a heavily armored cavalry. Both men and horses wear heavy armor and charge.

It is extremely lethal."

Speaking of this, Su Cheng paused for a moment, and then continued:

"Thinking about it this way, it's pretty interesting that the Frankish Empire was fighting against the Carolingian Kingdom. Even if they sent the famous general Allen to help, they actually sent 4,000 of the armored holy cavalry who only had 20,000 people to help."

"It's just, sir." Deng Jiaer said suddenly, "Now that Allen has chosen to defend the east bank of Yilun Ferry and prevent us from successfully crossing the river, his armored holy cavalry will not be effective. The heavy cavalry is guarding

We won’t be able to exert much combat power in the river battle. As a result, our only threat in this battle is Allen.”

"I hope so." Allen said with a wry smile.

…

Before the sun completely sank below the horizon, the Britannian army finally walked the last five miles and arrived at the west bank of the Ilon Ferry!

After arriving at the west bank of Illun Ferry, I saw that the east bank of Illun Ferry was already lined with flags and various simple fortifications had been built.

It seems that Allen has led his army to wait for the Britannia Imperial Army at the Ferry of Iron for a long time!

In this way, the 100,000 Britannian Imperial Army on the west bank of Irun Ferry and the 60,000 Carolingian Army on the east bank of Irun Ferry began to confront each other across the wide water of the Fu River!

After arriving at the Irun Ferry, Nicholas ordered to set up camp. Because it was too late now and the army needed to rest and recover, Nicholas did not reach the Irun Ferry and launched an attack on the other side.

When giving the order to set up camp, Nicholas also did not forget to tell people to keep an eye on the enemy's movements on the opposite side, and not to allow the enemy to make a sneak attack while they had just arrived and had not recovered their physical strength.

…

night.

Fuhe, Ilon Ferry.

The two sides of the Illun Ferry were brightly lit, and the dazzling firelight almost lit up half of the sky.

Because the east wind is blowing now, the icy cold wind blows from the east bank, blows across the wide and dark Fuhe River, and reaches the west bank.

Following the cool breeze blowing, the soldiers of the Britannia Imperial Army on the west bank could vaguely hear the chatter and laughter of the Carolingian Kingdom Army camp on the east bank.

At this time, the commander-in-chief of the Britannia Imperial Army arrived at the camp.

All the commanders, deputy commanders and commander-in-chief Nicholas of the entire army are gathering in the commander's camp.

"According to the information sent by the King of Lunde Kingdom," Nicholas, who was sitting in the main seat, said, "They saw with their own eyes that the large enemy troops besieging the city broke up and left, but there were still about 20,000 people left to continue to besiege Heron City.

, that is to say, the number of enemy troops on the other side now is about 60,000."

"That's good." Enli said, "Now that our army's numerical advantage has been strengthened, it will be easier to storm the Ilon Ferry."

"It's just," Alyssa frowned, "the east wind is blowing now! We are attacking from the west bank to the east bank. This wind direction is very unfavorable to us. Should we stay on the west bank first and wait for the wind direction to change before attacking?

?”

Nicholas shook his head.

"The current wind direction is not so easy to change, so we have no choice but to bite the bullet. But fortunately, the current wind is not too strong, so we will not be at a big disadvantage."

Nicholas stood up with a "hoo".

"Then, it's decided! Early tomorrow morning, we will attack the Illun Ferry! The 1st Army, the 3rd Army, and the 6th Army will be the main attackers! Early tomorrow morning, the 1st Army will attack first!"

As soon as Nicholas finished speaking, all the military commanders and deputy commanders shouted in unison:

"yes!"

Afterwards, the meeting ended, and the military commanders and deputy commanders walked out of the commander's camp one after another.

During this military meeting, Su Cheng, like last time, stood at the back without saying a word, being quiet and transparent.

Su Cheng didn't come up with any good strategies or tactics for this river-crossing battle. The Fu River has a large volume of water and fast currents. There is no other place to cross the river except the Yilun Ferry. When there is only one ferry,

, apart from relying on the quality and quantity of powerful soldiers to storm the ferry, there are no other tactics that can be used.

After leaving the commander's camp, Su Cheng walked straight towards his military tent.

As he was walking towards his military tent, he suddenly heard someone calling him from behind:

"Hey! Su Cheng! Wait a minute!"

Su Cheng looked back following the sound.

Enri is one of the "Twin Generals" and serves as the commander of the 7th Army this time!

Enli raised his chin to one side and said, "Follow me, I have something to tell you."

Although Su Cheng didn't know what Enli was going to say to him, he couldn't just tell him "Thank you, I'm not going", so Su Cheng chose to follow Enli obediently and listen to what Enli had to say to him.

.

In this battle, the "Twin Generals" of the Britannian Empire also participated. Enley Hunter served as the commander of the 7th Army, and Alyssa Hill served as the commander of the 10th Army.

At this time, Alyssa was about to walk back to her military tent. When walking back to her military tent, she suddenly caught a glimpse of two familiar figures out of the corner of her eye.

Huh? Isn't this Enli? And Su Cheng? What are the two of them going to do?

Alyssa was filled with doubts. She knew very well that although she didn't know why, Enli disliked Su Cheng even more than she did. What were the two of them going to do all night?

In order to eliminate the doubts in her heart, Alyssa decided to follow them secretly!

…

Enli led Su Cheng to the army camp, a remote place so remote that no lights illuminated the place. Su Cheng could only rely on the moonlight to barely see everything around him.

After arriving at this remote place, Enli finally stopped, turned around, and looked directly at Su Cheng. However, it was too dark here, and Su Cheng couldn't see his face clearly, but based on the outline of his body,

, it felt like Enri was indeed looking directly at him.

However, neither Su Cheng nor Enli noticed that a beautiful figure was hiding behind a tree behind Su Cheng.

Alyssa, who was hiding behind the tree, quietly stretched out half of her head and secretly looked at Su Cheng and Enli.

Fortunately, it was very dark here, and neither Enli nor Su Cheng noticed that Alyssa was hiding here and eavesdropping on their conversation.

"Su Cheng," Enli said, "compete with me!"

"ha?"

Su Cheng looked at Enli confused.

Alyssa, who was hiding behind the tree, was also confused at this time. She didn't know why Enli suddenly wanted to compete with Su Cheng.

"To tell you the truth, I don't like you." Enli continued, "I always thought you were just someone who talked about military affairs and art of war. But after you defeated 30,000 people with 5,000 people,

I have to admit your talent."

"But I still feel dissatisfied!" Enli suddenly shouted, "Although I recognize your talent, I really want to know which one is stronger, you or me!"

"So, let's take advantage of this rescue battle of the Kingdom of Lunde and let's compete to see who can achieve greater military exploits in the rescue battle of the Kingdom of Lunde!"

Su Cheng looked at Enli speechlessly.
