Chapter 102 Crossing the River

Old Jimmy stood in the heavy snow, looking at the ice floating on the river, worried.

After arriving at Bailey City, Gurgaru led the land race to station outside Bailey City. As a strategic deterrent, amphibians such as fishmen were sent to the Earl to lead major water systems to guard the rivers and block traffic.

The fishman lived up to the Earl's expectations. With his amphibious advantage, he sank several ships of the Viscount Leo and Earl Lucas family. After he could not force his crossing the river, but things did not develop as much as the Earl had expected.

The Viscount Leo family and the Earl Lucas family discovered the plan of Bailey City. Although there were frequent frictions on the border between the two sides, the top leaders of both sides were very restrained and did not start a full war.

A delicate balance is maintained between the three forces, but now, this balance is about to be broken.

Because, with the arrival of winter, the rivers in the Kingdom of Rowe in the north began to freeze. If this trend continues, after a few winter nights, the surface of the river will be completely frozen and covered with a layer of ice that is enough for the army to pass through.

By then, the amphibious advantage of the fishman will be gone, and old Jimmy must retreat.

"Senior, the snow is getting heavier again, please go back quickly."

The reminder of the fishman guard interrupted Old Jimmy's thoughts.

"Have those soldiers sent out not returned yet?"

"Not yet, why don't I wait here, elder, please go back first, you..."

"Hahaha, little James, don't worry about me. Don't be too old, but I have received the gifts of Lord Lord and experienced the transformation of the dragon vein. Maybe you strong guys are not as good as me."

The fishman guard grabbed his head awkwardly when he heard this.

Suddenly, Old Jimmy was shocked. In the guard's shocked eyes, he suddenly jumped into the river with broken ice floating, swam to the center of the river ten meters apart, and grabbed a piece of ice and observed it carefully.

The fishman guard who jumped down with Old Jimmy was confused when he saw Old Jimmy's behavior.

"Little Zhan, please inform a few night walkers immediately and search up the river. The blood of the fishman was frozen in the ice."

"yes!"

Old Jimmy looked at the faint blood in the ice cube in his hand and felt solemn.

Finally can't help but take action!

Since the beginning of winter, two hostile families have seemed to have reached some agreement, and the friction at the border has almost disappeared, and more and more scouts have been sent to the river bank in the past two days.

Faced with such obvious danger signals, Old Jimmy sent someone to contact Bailey City and sent a fishman scout into the enemy territory to investigate. However, the two teams have not returned yet.

Old Jimmy had reached the breath of conspiracy, and now it was convinced that the enemy could not help but attack Bailey City.

Not long after Old Jimmy returned to the fishman camp, the fishman Night Walker who was out searching came back and brought back a frozen fishman corpse.

"Elder, we found our own body upstream of the river."

Old Jimmy looked through the corpse on the ground. An arrow was inserted behind the body. Old Jimmy pulled out the arrow and saw an iron hammer emblem printed on it.

The Iron Hammer Emblem is the clan emblem of the Earl Lucas family. Sure enough, they will not give up the opportunity to freeze the river surface. Ten thousand fishmen will definitely not be able to stop the attack of one Earl family.

"Notify everyone and prepare to retreat."

Dingdeng!

Suddenly, Old Jimmy heard the sound of horse hooves from far to near.

Hawkeye!

Old Jimmy's eyes were covered with a faint fluorescence and saw the scene from the distance across the river. In the heavy snow, a large number of human cavalry in iron armor were galloping towards the fishman camp.

When Old Jimmy saw a dozen people wearing mage robes behind the team, he immediately decided to make a strategic move.

"Quick! Bring rations and get into the water."

Facing an enemy that cannot be defeated, the fishman does not need to fight against the enemy for Bailey City.

Old Jimmy brought all the fishman into the bottom of the river, and he planned to take a detour from the river and return to Bailey City, after all, the employment was not over yet.

Not long after, the human cavalry came to the riverside, and the mighty human knights in the lead saw groups of fishmen under the water.

"Hmph, you guys know each other's face!"

If Old Jimmy met this man in person, he would definitely recognize him. He was the hyena that Count Dumbledore took out a magical image and carefully introduced - Count Lucas.

The full name of Count Lucas is Silva Lucas. He is the patriarch of the contemporary Count Lucas family. He is known for his despicable, cunning, greedy and patientness, so he is a hyena.

The knight beside him looked at the fishman under the water hatefully: "Sir, do you want to chase him?"

Earl Lucas waved his hand: "No need, there is no oil on the fishman, there is no need to waste time on them."

"But these damn fishmen killed nearly a thousand of our soldiers, I..."

Earl Lucas's face changed slightly: "Are you questioning my decision?"

The knight quickly lowered his head and stepped back: "I don't dare."

Earl Lucas's face improved and he explained: "Earl Dumbledore is rich and rich. We must hurry up before the old Dumbledore fox reacts, don't worry, these fishmen will encounter them."

"Sir, don't we knock Hammer Town down?"

Earl Lucas glanced at his subordinates.

"Master, create a passage!"

Old Jimmy felt the violent magic energy fluctuations behind him, and turned around and saw a team of mages frozen the ice surface and created an ice avenue for the army to pass through.

"All members dismount! Cross the river!"

In the wind and snow, the knights led their horses across the ice and stepped onto the land under the Count Dumbledore's territory.

On the other side, Old Jimmy spoke to the fishman guard: "You ride the fastest swordfish, enter the sea from the river, and then arrive at Bailey City, and tell the count to be prepared for defense."

"yes!"

...

night.

Bailey City.

Bruce was woken up by his servant in his sleep.

"Master Bruce, the master convenes an emergency council in the hall."

When the confused Bruce heard the word "Emergency Council", he immediately woke up and rushed to the castle hall, and found that the hall was full of people.

"Father! What happened?"

"Wait and talk about it."

Bruce pressed down his questions and went to the chair beside him.

After a while, the four-meter-tall two-headed ogre chief pushed the door open, walked in, and sat directly on an extra-large chair.

"Okay, everyone is here."

Count Dumbledore's face was solemn: "Everyone, we are in trouble."

"I just received the message that the hyena brought two thousand elite cavalry into the hinterland of the territory and plundered everywhere. Leonardo Leo, the heir of the military noble Viscount Leo family, was attacking the town of Wavetown with 10,000 soldiers. What do you think?"

Bruce: "Father, the Lucas family and the Leo family have definitely reached a secret agreement, otherwise why would they do it together so coincidentally!"

A certain baron roared: "That's right! These two families are so hateful!"

Bruce calmly analyzed: "Hyina expected that we did not have the ability to fight on both sides, so she gave up attacking the Hammer Town stationed by Viscount Wilen, and let us do our best to rescue Viscount Oliver stationed in Yongwang Town, and then watch the Dumbledore and the Leo family fight each other. What a cruel method!"

"Yes, Leonardo Leo was cheated by a hyena, but we can only be led by him."

"Then the civilians don't care?"

Count Dumbledore looked at the quarrels and made a decision: "Civilians will not be in danger of their lives. Our top priority is to rescue Viscount Oliver. Who would lead the team?"

Baron Adams stood up: "I'll go!"
