After escorting 20,000 cavalry through the breach, Nigel dispersed 10 thousand troops on all sides, which account for half of the total force, overseeing a vast area.
“If an enemy appears, report it to me immediately, without fighting. ”
After scattering the ten thousand ligaments, he stood with the remaining 10,000 cavalry.
‘An army of Duke Meutt will appear somewhere in this region. ’
Even if Duke Meutt is beaten out of power, there are over a hundred disciples, so we cannot win a battle head-on.
However, the Horn Imperial Cavalry, led by Nigel, was not an ordinary cavalry.
Nomad Warriors!
A sharp horseman who shoots arrows on horses and runs around stoning horses.
Even without melee combat, I was able to harass him in a straight line. In fact, it was a vicious tactic used by nomadic warriors.
No matter how many soldiers are caught by the nomadic warriors, they will be wiped out after constant harassment.
Not only that, Nigel had a plan in mind.
‘I will insult this opportunity and prove my skills in the past defeat at Ledon. ’
Nigel has been active at a young age following his father, the Marquis of Juden, through many battles. He was worthy of the trust of the Marquis of Juden, leaving the rich man’s home.
But I haven’t been on the big stage yet. Nigel wanted to become famous throughout the Horn Empire and receive the Emperor’s Medium Dragon ( ).
The battle for Leaden Kingdom was a great opportunity, but unfortunately, the break-in of the Caroc Ligand cost us our chance.
But right now!
Nigel got another chance.
With the history of defeating the retreating Duke Meutt, there will be no one in the Horn or the Kingdom of Leaden who does not know the name of Nigel.
As Nigel Jurden, not the son of the Marquis of Juden, he decided to impress everyone with his skills.
‘Welcome. I’ll hunt you down.’
Nigel smiles confidently.

Baron Joe Laurel was a student of Duke Meutt’s third sequence.
Although I had a moderate level of unparalleled imperative to come in line with the sequence of a third party, I have been struggling a lot for the past decade because my skills have not improved and I have been stuck.
Especially Rick Kunt, who became Duke Meutt’s apprentice much later than himself, now that Earl Fernando has reached the Master’s throne, he has experienced a great sense of self-esteem.
Seeing the genius at a much younger age who had achieved zero ambition, I thought he was not talented.
To him with such concerns, Duke Teacher Meutt said:
“You are not a timber for martial arts. ”
No matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t achieve anything more.
“But if there is a critical military mission, I will leave it to you. ”
It was a statement establishing the identity of Baron Joe Laurel.
Hearing that, Baron Laurel decides to rise up as a soldier, not an unarmed man.
I became an accessory to Duke Meutt and actively participated in military activities. His character that is faithful to the principles, upright, and duty-bound has been compromised by his quality as a great soldier. Therefore, he was entrusted with Duke Meutt and the Grand Duke Campbell, and now he is an indispensable figure to Duke Meutt.
Baron Laurel is on patrol with 100 cavalry men under the orders of the Duke of Campbell.
It was Baron Laurel’s mission to first escape through the secret passageway and locate the enemy and secure the best route of retreat.
We had to wait until the retreat because we had heard in advance that 20,000 horsemen were lurking in the Horn Empire.
‘The horsemen of the Horn Empire are made up of nomads. It is impossible to escape from the eyes of the nomadic people with very wide vision. ’
The nomadic warriors who had lived as plunderers in the grasslands had a good eye together. The nomadic warriors were the ones who rode through the meadow on horseback to find a target to pillage.
A large number of nomadic warriors specialized in scouting were included in the enemy cavalry.
‘The enemy commander must be familiar with the nomads’ specialty. I’m going to use tactics to get out of here without a head-on fight. It is important to know the position of the enemy even if you are prepared for that. ’
Nothing scared me more than an unexpected surprise.
The fear of the nomadic warriors was that they could attack from any direction. It meant that the maneuver was that fast.
In order to know when and where to attack, we needed to know the enemy’s location beforehand.
Knowing this, Baron Laurel scouts hard.
Luckily, it was getting brighter after dawn. As the sun rose, the dark vision became brighter, making it easy to scout.
Baron Laurel scouted the wilderness vigorously with 100 cavalry.
It was about an hour or so on patrol.
“Baron, it’s the enemy! ”
“I’m watching, too. ”
Baron Laurel has spotted an enemy cavalry in the distance. On a scale, it was a thousand ligaments. Since they are well-eyed nomads, the enemy must have found them too.
“Hooray, shouldn’t we retreat? ”
“Wait. The enemy seems unwilling to attack this side. ”
Baron Laurel’s judgment.
The Horn Empire’s Celestial Guard finds Baron Laurel’s party and shows no other movement.
‘Perhaps you’ve been ordered not to fight if you see an enemy. ’
Enemy ligament, by the way. This is only 100 people. There was no need to taunt the enemy unnecessarily.
“Let’s go. There may be enemies elsewhere.” ”
“Old!”
Baron Laurel scouts for half the day. From time to time, I encounter the Horn Empire Celestial Guard, and every time I do not approach them, I carefully avoid them.
And after scouting, he found the base of 20,000 cavalry.
‘Approximately 10,000. Yeah, we’re splitting ten thousand ligaments to keep an eye on this area like a cage. ’
It’s like a troop deployment with a wide net to catch fishermen all at once.
The worst is painted in Baron Laurel’s head.
In the front, 20,000 mounted troops will attack and retreat, tying their feet, and 100,000 troops who captured Temple of Knight will chase after them and wipe out Duke Meutt’s army.
‘It’s impossible to retreat without seeing the blood. ’
Without the help of the late lord ligand, I might have to be prepared for extinction.
Baron Laurel is nervous in anticipation of heavy damage to his allies and is sweating cold.
Baron Laurel, a third disciple, returned from reconnaissance when King Campbell had left the secret passageway with 20,000 troops of Duke Meutt.
“The enemy base is 10,000 at about 16 kilometers at one o’clock, and 10 of the fabric ligaments are each spread out. We haven’t been able to confirm the timing. ”
“It is likely that he is the son of the Marquis of Juden, as he said. I heard he is young but not mediocre. No, you have to be as brave as a child. ”
“I’m old enough to raise a ball and make a name for myself. Anyway, the book is spreading its net and just waiting for us to come. Collision seems inevitable, metabolic. ”
“Well, that’s hard. ”
Baron Campbell moans.
Among Duke Meutt’s 20,000 troops, the cavalry was only 3,000. By comparison, a total of 20,000 troops are cavalry. That includes a large number of nomadic warriors.
You can see how much manpower dominates the battle by looking at the previous warlords.
