The Seremis family army stationed, commanding Edward-the great account of Siremis.
The brother-in-law of the Siremis family lord, Edward-Siremis is sitting in a marching chair, listening to his scout captain's report.
"Adult, we found that there are a lot of movements of the army in the Emilio family territory. The number of people is about 1000 to 1200. However, they just firmly held the border and did not mean to march." Scout The captain said on his knees halfway: "In addition, the scouts we released were carefully searched within 50 kilometers nearby, but only a few farmers' shadows were found, and no traces of the enemy's major forces were found."
"Oh, that's weird. What was Adams's idea?" Edward tweeted his beard and whispered, "I thought he would be a soldier, but I didn't expect our army to progress so smoothly. Lanar ’s main force. "
"Report! Urgent military situation!" A cry of guard came from outside the big account. Edward's eyebrows jumped and said, "Come in."
The curtain of the big tent was opened, and two of Edward's guards walked in with a scout covered in blood. The injury of the scout was so serious that he couldn't even stand. After Edward's guard released his hand, The scout collapsed to the ground softly. After a while, the blanket in the big tent was stained with a large red.
An Edward guard standing next to him quickly poured a large glass of spirits, and raised the scout to infuse him, and under the stimulation of the spirit, the spirit of the scout became hyperactive, and he left to the military doctor Bandaging himself, he said excitedly to the commander: "Adult, I have found the other's main position, I have found it."
"Ah!" Edward got up from the chair with a snap. He came to the scout in a few steps and asked repeatedly, "Where? Where?"
"Sir, a team of six of us was instructed to make a detour to the enemy's flanks. Unexpectedly, after traveling about 45 kilometers, we encountered a large number of opposing forces. Under the pursuit of the opposing party, only six of us were left with me ..." The scout's truthful report: "This army escorts a large number of old people, women and children. It should be the migration of a whole few villages. According to the direction of their march, it should be the Crimson Rose Castle where the Salana family is located."
"Oh, Crimson Rose Castle?" Edward gently read the name, slowly pacing back and forth in the big account, carefully thinking about the accuracy of the information and the other party's plan. After about five minutes, Edward gently clapped his hands and said in a decisive tone: "Yes, this must be the case."
After Edward said this, he gave a solemn expression and ordered: "Call all officers immediately for a meeting."
With Edward's order, a long horn sound was heard throughout the barracks, and dozens of officers looked out of their camps and quickly walked towards the coach's account. The sound of the horn only sounded for a few minutes. All the people were there. They stood quietly on both sides, waiting for their commander to give orders.
"According to the information brought back by the scout, as well as my personal inference, I think that the main force of the Saranal family should shrink towards the Crimson Rose Castle." Edward opened the door and said his purpose of calling everyone: "This is the main It was because our army attacked quickly and did not give the opponent too much time to prepare, so that several of their strongholds were quickly knocked down by us. In this case, it is normal for the guy of Adams to concentrate his forces to guard the family station thing."
"The Crimson Rose Castle is almost 200 years old. Its terrain is not under the Iron Fist Castle. It can completely stop our army's offensive with relatively little force. And the most headache for me is that the Crimson Rose Castle is backed by Vallo. In the mountains, they can put a large number of civilians there, and our army can only capture the slaves by knocking out the Crimson Rose Castle. "
"Our army is alone, although it has an advantage in the military, and it has added a lot of food to the other strongholds of the other party, but our time is not much, because when we were fighting with the Saranal family, Emilio The family is quickly recovering strength, and we must establish the victory before they intervene, otherwise our best chance in 200 years will be lost for us! "
"Please give orders to adults!" The dozen military officers shouted unanimously: "our army will win, and the glory of the Thremis family will be cast by us!"
"Good!" Edward was very happy when he saw that his subordinates had a strong fighting spirit. He believed that even if the enemy had any conspiracies and tricks, he could use his high morale army to annihilate in one fell swoop, so Edward gave the order: "Elie!"
"Here!" Eli, who is Edward's nephew and the third-ranked heir of the Theramis family, is very happy in his heart. He did not expect that he was the first to be sent, but he was full of face. His excitement solidified in the next second, because Edward ’s order to him was: "You lead a 2000 army stationed at the border of the Emilio family, and you can't defend without any attack."
"Ah?" Eli is a little reluctant. In contrast, he hopes to face the battlefield in person. Although he has enjoyed the life of Jinyiyushi since he was a child, Eli still longs for life in the military camp. He Ma Shou reproduced the glory of his ancestors, and thus became the commander of a thousand commanders.
"You don't underestimate this!" Edward said seriously: "I am most worried now that the Emilio family will give us a knife in the back. As long as no one else interferes, we may win this war. In order to get one Behind the stable back, your father personally sat in the family station to raise funds for us, and I also hope that you can hold our back firmly so that we can fight with no heart in mind. "
Although Eli was somewhat reluctant, he still obeyed the duties of the soldiers and accepted the order. Edward's second and final order was to order the whole army to set off immediately and move towards Crimson Rose Castle.
The two armies soon parted ways. Edward looked at his distant nephew silently and said to himself: "We will definitely win. Certainly. However, in case of any accident, Eli, my nephew, you Is the hope of our family in the future. "

Salanar family station, Crimson Rose Castle, Adams' house.
"Mr. Fabia, please see, our army is almost assembled." Adams pointed to a map on the table and said to Ryan: "And Edward's army has arrived here, and it is estimated that we will attack us tomorrow. "
Ryan took a closer look at this beautifully made map and nodded slightly, while Adela beside him said respectfully, "Master, according to our prior plan, Sister Vivian ’s 00 Warrior Already hidden in the Crimson Rose Castle, in order to ensure foolproof, all insiders will be put under house arrest until the end of the war. "
Lane did not like Adela to call his master, but he also knew that his relationship with Adela was not as close as that of Vivienne. At least he could not tell Adela about his true identity, so Lane also Reluctantly accepted this title.
"Well, I just went to see it. The soldiers were in a good mood. Although they had a hard roundabout in the Vallo Mountains, after two days of rest, their physical strength had almost recovered, and Moses all of them Very hard, still encouraging morale, after all, only if we win, their lives will be better. "Vivian said to Ryan with a smile:" Now look at when the other party called. "
When Vivian said here, a thought suddenly appeared in her head, so she opened her mouth and said: "Fabia, do you want us to go on a surprise attack tonight, maybe there will be a lot of gains."
Ryan was also very tempted by Vivienne ’s proposal, but Adela rejected Vivienne ’s proposal in one fell swoop:
No, Sister Vivienne ’s idea is very good, but it is difficult to achieve practical results. Our army went The effect of fewer people is not good, it is difficult to guarantee the secret if there are too many people. Even if the owner is personally out of the horse, after all, the other party has more than 10,000 people. Even if thousands of people are lost, it is meaningless for the overall situation. 'S layout leaked out in advance. "
Ryan agreed with Adela ’s analysis very much. He nodded and stopped mentioning Vivienne ’s proposal. After taking a sip of water, Ryan asked Adela again, "What is our strength? I What is needed is the kind that can fight, those old, weak and sick have to be counted out. "
"Well, the Salanar family has gathered more than 5,000 strong here. They usually have military training, and their families have been specially arranged to live in the castle. Although the conditions are a bit worse, they are enough to let them The fight will not retreat, unless they do n’t even have the most basic human nature.
Adela answered without even thinking about it:
In addition to the original soldiers of the family, there are a total of 6,000 people, and Sister Vivian ’s side There are 00 people, and our two coalition forces have fewer than 7,000 people. "
Ryan knew that this was the benefit of the large population of the Salanar family. Even if the whole army is annihilated, it can quickly recover its vitality. In contrast, although the Emilio family has the strongest combat power, once the army is defeated It's too difficult to recover.
"What about the enemies? How many do they have?" Vivian asked, asking, "I hope it's not too outrageous."
"We can't get too close to the other party's main force, we can only infer it from a distance, and then check the barracks after the enemy abandoned it. The preliminary estimate is that the Thremis army is about 10,000 to 12,000." Ad Opening his mouth immediately answered.
Ryan haha ​​smiled, he said confidently: "It sounds like there is a huge gap in numbers, but tomorrow's battle, this gap is not irreparable. The Royal Knights can defeat Senatán 30,000 elite with 5,000 people, I think, Can I always bring 7,000 people to defeat 10,000? "
