There are many strange rocks in the Ladoga Valley, which looks particularly eerie under the hazy moonlight. A cold wind blows through, making people shudder. Ever since Yang Ling killed Yimia here in one fell swoop, people often hear heartbreaking sounds in the cold weather.

A lung-splitting scream.

Some people say that the ghost of Yimia is still lingering, some say that the strange snake demon blood staff attracts many lonely ghosts, and some people say that the snake demon blood staff breaks through the void and attracts the demons from hell. One pass to ten, and ten passes to it.

Hundreds of horror stories about the Ladoga Valley emerge one after another.

At the beginning, some hunters who made a living by hunting did not take it seriously, and dismissed these nonsense rumors every time. But since a young man who can give birth to tigers and leopards made a bet with others, staying in the Ladoga Valley for one night has changed.

After becoming a madman, people truly realize that many rumors are not groundless.

Normally, the Ladoga Valley is inaccessible, so it becomes even more deserted. As time goes by, it looks even more eerie.

Half an hour before dawn, Stov led 500 guards and rushed over. On the road, the streets became deserted and deserted. Not to mention the soldiers, even Stov himself could not help but murmur a few words.

, I can’t understand why Meryls would find such a desolate place for a date.

Could it be that Meryls was planning to commit herself to her tonight, so she deliberately found such a desolate place?

After fantasizing for a moment, Stov shook his head and gave up this unrealistic idea. During this period of time, let alone breaking through the relationship between men and women, he had not even touched Meryl's jade hands like water and hibiscus.

Needless to say, the other party will commit himself to her.

In a daze, Stov led the soldiers into the gloomy Ladoga Valley. They were unaware of the circles of faint water traces on the ground, and they did not even notice that there was a faint fragrance wafting in the air.

If there is an experienced Holy See mage here, he will definitely turn around and leave immediately. Because this is not a trace of water, but a kind of terrifying black magic, a black magic used to hide soldiers and horses!

The thicker the water traces and the wider the area, the more soldiers and horses are hidden!

After walking to the depths of the valley in confusion, Stov saw a familiar and graceful figure standing under a big tree in the distance. Stov finally breathed a sigh of relief. He ordered the soldiers to stop and strode up with a few guards.

.

"Miss Meryl, I'm sorry, Stoff is late!"

Seeing that Meryls was alone, Stov realized that he had really worried too much. As he spoke, he opened the dark and tight mask. Before leaving, just in case, he put on the family-ordered t-shirt for himself under the repeated advice of his advisers.

Made of armor.

"Hey, Stov, why is it you?" Meryl was very surprised when she saw Stov taking off his mask and striding over.

A moment ago, she was still wondering why Yang Ling's figure was different, but she thought it was because he was wearing armor and didn't think much about it. It wasn't until the other party took off his mask that she realized something was wrong!

No, I fell into a trap!

Looking at Stov who didn't know he was about to die, Meryls didn't need to think too much to understand that Yang Ling had tricked her again, and it was a complete mistake. She thought she could take Yang Ling down, but instead she foolishly acted as a

bait.

After gritting her teeth, Meryls made a prompt decision and gave the order to the hiding men and horses to retreat immediately, passing by the hurried Stov like a gust of wind, "Stov, we have all been fooled, hurry up if you don't want to die.

withdraw!"

Fooled?

Looking at Meryls who quickly disappeared into the darkness, Stov's expression was dull. He didn't expect that after half a day of hurried preparation, the beauty would quickly leave him without even saying a word.

Thinking of Meryls who passed by her coldly, and the indifference and disdain in her eyes, he felt that the whole sky seemed to be broken into pieces. Unwillingness, frustration, despair..., in an instant, there seemed to be something in his heart.

He kept stirring the knife, stirring it hard, breaking his fragile heart into pieces.

"Quickly, protect your lord, retreat!"

Stov was so lost that he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time, but the counselor not far behind him quickly reacted. Although he didn't hear Meryls' reminder, he looked at her strangely quick departure and felt instinctively

Something is wrong.

Stov's personal guards responded quickly, but it was a pity that it was too late!

With a loud shout, a large group of Russians holding heavy crossbows suddenly rushed out from behind the woods not far away. In just a short moment, dozens of Bantu people wearing black heavy armor fell to the dense rain of arrows.

At close range, the black heavy armor they were proud of could not stop the terrifying heavy crossbow arrows.

"Raise your shield, form a formation, protect your lord, quickly!"

Under the sudden change, the Bantu people, under the command of their commander, rushed forward and formed a formation with shields to withstand the Russian arrows and protect Stov. Unfortunately, the crossbow arrows were too dense, and soldiers were hit by stray arrows from time to time.

The attack, especially the magician accompanying the army, was hit hard, and screams came one after another.

"Sir, we have fallen into a trap, retreat, retreat quickly!"

Seeing that the situation was not good, several personal guards surrounded Stov and retreated quickly while shouting. The Russians were approaching fiercely, and they might have laid a lot of ambushes. If they didn't retreat quickly, the whole army might be wiped out in the blink of an eye.

If the Bantu people suffered enough from the crossbows of the Russians, then the heavy cavalry attack that followed left them even more stunned.

"Ula, Ula..."

Following a deep horn sound, a group of heavily armored Ross heavy cavalry rushed over from a hillside while shouting. With the help of the sloping hillside, they rushed faster and faster, and rushed into the squad like a sharp knife.

A large formation of figures, sprinting back and forth.

Caught off guard, the Bantu formation was thrown into chaos. No one could have imagined that the Russians would suddenly arrive with a large number of reinforcements, and that they would bring a large number of war horses and sophisticated weapons, let alone that all this was actually done by Yang Ling behind the scenes.

Some time ago, at the request of Genoa, Yang Ling received a large sum of crystal coins and asked the dwarf Rumi to go all out. He led many blacksmiths to imitate many Russian weapons and armor, and secretly purchased a batch from mercenaries and adventurers.

War horse.

The Rus Empire is located in the north, with snow falling all year round in many places, a harsh climate, and fierce folk customs. In the vast land, there are countless vast pastures. People have grown up riding horses since childhood, and their riding skills are exquisite, so they are called horseback.

country.

For thousands of years, the Russians have built a country with cavalry and conquered the world with cavalry. They are invincible. Except for the powerful Draa Empire in the west and the Bantu Empire in the south, which is famous for its magic, they basically have few opponents.

In terms of the individual abilities of the soldiers, the Russians may not be very outstanding, but if they have a war horse, the situation is completely different. In terms of horse warfare, in the entire Tyran continent, if the Russians claim to be second, I am afraid no one will dare to

Say first.

Although the situation was not good, under the command of their commander, the Bantu people fought back desperately.

The few surviving magicians gathered around Stov, exerting their power under the cover of heavy infantry. Some teamed up to cast a magic shield to block the Russians' long-range attacks; some tried their best to kill and rush over. The Ross Cavalry.

Unlike the Ross Empire in the north, the Bantu Empire in the south did not produce war horses at all due to the hot climate. For thousands of years, the country was founded with a large number of magicians and heavy infantry, and was known for being good at defense. As long as the formation was in order, the heavy infantry Infantry and magicians can respond to each other, and elite troops can even face the heavy cavalry raids of the Russians in the wild.

The five hundred soldiers brought by Stov are all the best among the best. Almost all of them have experienced hundreds of battles. Under normal circumstances, as long as they have the cooperation of magicians, they will not be inferior even against the elite heavy cavalry of the Russians. Unfortunately, they are not inferior at all. After losing most of the magicians accompanying the army unprepared, the combat effectiveness of the entire army has been reduced to 10 or 10.

The tide is over!

As the guards around him fell one by one, Stov had no choice but to go into battle and lead the remaining soldiers to grit their teeth and hold on. The scouts who reported the news had already rushed back to move reinforcements. The Ladoga Valley was not very far away from the military camp. As long as the remaining army is informed of the situation, they can arrive quickly in half an hour.

Stov and his party were caught off guard and suffered heavy losses in the blink of an eye. However, with their hard support, the Russians could not win a complete victory for a while. After all, Stov brought a full 500 elite and emaciated camels. Bigger than a horse.

During the fierce battle, neither the crazy Russians nor the struggling Bantu people noticed several dark shadows hidden under a bush in the distance.

"Agusu, where are Stov's reinforcements?" Seeing that Stov and his party could not hold out much longer, Yang Ling asked the guard captain beside him.

According to the serial plan, when Stov was ambushed, he immediately sent someone to report to the army he left behind, so that both the Bantu and the Russians would suffer losses, thus successfully controlling the town of Wesen. But seeing that Stov and his party suffered heavy losses, Yang Ling understood that if they If the reinforcements don't arrive quickly, the situation may be beyond one's expectation.

"Sir, the parrot has successfully completed its mission and promptly notified Stov's remaining army." Agusu paused and then said: "According to the scout report, they can arrive in half an hour at most!"

Half an hour, for most people, might be just the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, but for Yang Ling, who was well prepared, it was enough! It was enough to take advantage of the opportunity and dispatch the entire army to completely eradicate Stov's influence.

"Okay, let's go, everything will go as planned, and tell the warriors to put on Russian equipment!"

"Yes, I understand!"
Chapter completed!
