"As for your order, my emperor!"

Kurush's response somewhat made the other nobles in the chamber feel strange and shocked.

After all, the title of emperor sounds both arrogant and shocking. In the Central Empire, the mystery and prestige of the emperor always overlap with the shadow of God.

The bodies of more than twenty counts were placed there. Under this huge pressure, no one from the nobles who had been below the marquis had dared to talk too much.

"Margo Lampkin, the Count of the Beacon City, your loyalty and your bravery, will make the war bear flag on the shoulders of the Lampkin family burn. As the only surviving Count, I will give you the identity of a first-class nobleman. And draw ten thousand people from the army to form the Second Legion of the Revenge!"

The Margo in Aaron's mouth is of medium shape. Although he has silver hair, his body is very strong. On a hard face, there are bright eyes.

There are still 50,000 legions in Cleiston City, half of which are Margo's soldiers.

The corpses of his three sons were all left in Fenghuo City.

"It's as solid as a rock, as still as a mountain! Margo has followed the old Duke of Salmon since childhood, and in his later years, he followed his son. His vow to be loyal to the Reinhardt family will last forever."

The taciturn Margo had a loud voice and full of energy. He glanced at the corpse on the ground, then at the nobles around him, and a cold snorted disdain in his nostrils.

The 50,000 legions in Cleiston City will form five 10,000 legions, which seems to be something that everyone can guess.

Under the fog of war, the new commander of the legion represents the new nobles and the most practical power. From Margo, the nobles in the chamber did not lose hope.

Yes, Lord Aaron, he still needs allegiance from the old nobles.

With expectations. With everyone's eyes, Aaron looked around for a week, his lips outlined, and mentioned a name that no one could have imagined. "Keg, the captain of the Reinhardt Family Guard."

The moment he heard this name, all the marquis and nobles were cold to the freezing point.

Unfortunately, the disappointment and dissatisfaction of these people did not attract Aaron's attention. With four thousand Holy City warriors as their backing, Aaron was not worried that these nobles would rebel or lead their servants to riot, because it would be an act that would make them regret.

Aaron stared at Keg. The young man looked less than twenty years old. He had a pair of firm eyes under his two curved eyebrows. He could tell at a glance that he was a warrior with courage and faith. Under a straight and elegant nose, he had a big mouth, with two thick lips.

"Keg, Duke Saimen, is able to come back alive, all with your on-site command. Your leadership skills have been recommended by many soldiers. From now on, I will give you the status of a first-class nobleman. I will draw ten thousand people from the army to form the Third Legion of the Revenge Army!"

Hearing Aaron's appointment, Keg decisively raised his right arm and hit his left shoulder, shouting firmly, "It's as stable as a mountain, as solid as a rock!"

The three major revenge legions have formed their own institutions.

Aaron gave the candidate of the Fifth Legion of the Revenge Army to Earl William's eldest daughter Urrika!

"Urrika, sorry, you are a man who just became a mother. So, you and your Fifth Legion can only be used as a city defense force, staying in Clayston. Protect this city! Other things about counterattacks should be left to these men."

Aaron nodded to Urrika and stood in the center of the chamber with big steps.

"Listen to everyone else, you, your servants, and even the male members of the family, will all be incorporated into the Fourth Legion of the Revenge Army, with the Marquis being the Centurion, and those below the Marquis serving as the Ten-House. ... The survival of the Northern Continent will be decided in this counterattack battle. And I myself will be the commander of the Fourth Legion of the Revenge Army."

………………………………………

The 200,000 White Woods Legion is approaching, and Aaron does not intend to trap the lonely city. Even if the walls of Clayston are strong enough, the food stored is not sufficient. If the 200,000 White Woods Legion only sieges but not attacks, it will not take long before the city will be destroyed.

In Aaron's cognition, there is no unbreakable city wall in this world.

Perhaps only the strong will that cannot be defeated is... a mountain that is as strong as a rock.

“As far as I order!”

Aaron issued an order to Kurush, Marg, Keg, and the three legion commanders. The four major legions of the Revenge Army all had their own actions at the same time.

Destroy the only White Rock Bridge, and if the enemy wants to attack Clayston, they must pass through a naturally formed black swamp.

Regarding this black swamp, according to legends from the people in the North, it is said that this is an ancient battlefield. Due to the low terrain, the corpses are soaked in water, forming a permanent decayed land.

Nominally anyone entering the Black Swamp is in danger of life, and it is actually a paradise for many tax evasion smugglers.

According to Aaron's order, the First Revenge Army Corps ambushed in the east of the Black Swamp. It has 10,000 most elite war bear soldiers in the north.

The Second Revenge Army lies in ambush on the west side of the Black Swamp. Ten thousand heavy infantrymen with full armor.

The Third Revenge Army lies in the woods south of the Black Swamp, with 8,000 heavy cavalry and 2,000 light cavalry.

The Fourth Revenge Army, led by Aaron himself, dragged the enemy into a trap step by step from the north of the Black Swamp. In addition to the 10,000 spearmen and swordsmen, there were also 10,000 people composed of nobles and their servants, as well as the peasants and craftsmen who were temporarily recruited from Cleiston and more than 30,000 craftsmen.

Adding to the four thousand Holy City warriors, the total number exceeds 60,000.

…………

Black swamp———

Whether in highlands or lowlands, there will be dangerous "traps".

Even if you fall in accidentally, you may die.

After Aaron saw with his own eyes, the method of falling into the swamp to survive is similar to when he was trapped in quicksand. Don’t struggle. You should lie flat and try to expand the contact area between your body and the mud, and slowly swim to a safe area to escape.

"Transfer my orders, the Fourth Revenge Army traveled through the Black Swamp three times, be sure to be familiar with the environment here and the characteristics of the swamp."

Aaron's decision was very wise, because the key to winning this war was how to use this swamp.

As for soldiers, how to identify dangerous quagmire, the people in the northern border growing in this land have unique experience.

The mud is usually in swamps or wet, soft and muddy areas.

When you see the black flat ground where there is no grass growing, you should be even more careful.

At the same time, you should pay attention to the cyan peat moss swamp under your feet. Sometimes, the surface of the squash moss is covered with carpets, which is the most dangerous trap.

If you have to walk through a place full of mud, you should walk along the high ground where trees grow, or step on the heather grass, because both trees and heather are growing on hard ground.

If you cannot determine which path to take, you can drop a few large rocks forward and try to see if the ground is hard. Or stomp your feet hard. If the ground trembles, it is likely to be a quagmire and you should take a detour.
