LOL: Summoner of Goddess Janna

The next day, early morning. The horn of war sounded slowly with the sunrise, resounding in this small seaside town called Tiwasa.

Vladimir stood on a high hill outside the city, overlooking the entire battlefield with the nominal commander Du Kecao.

If there are ten thousand people, there will be no boundaries. From the vantage point of the two men, the empire's hundreds of thousands of troops were like the sea, covering almost all the space in their field of vision.

But even so, this large Noxian army still showed amazing organizational power and maintained basic order.

Each battle group and legion strictly followed the troop organization and combat deployment. Under the leadership of their respective generals, they waited in an orderly manner in the areas where they were deployed.

Just waiting for Commander Du Kecao's order, they would move forward in a mighty and orderly manner towards the endless mountainous area ahead.

"These soldiers...are the elite of the empire." Du Cacao sighed softly.

He looked at Vladimir, as if giving his final advice to this cold-blooded monster.

But Vladimir only replied calmly: "It is precisely because he is an elite that he has the value of sacrifice."

"..." Du Kecao quietly clenched his fists and said no more.

"General Du Kecao." Vladimir glanced at him coldly: "It's time to start, give the order."

"Yes." Du Kecao knew that he was not qualified to refuse.

But he still instinctively looked in the direction of the Wuji Mountains, as if expecting some miracle to happen.

And just then:

"Here they come! They're here!" In the astonished eyes of countless people, a gust of wind blew from Wuji Mountain.

The wind is not very fast, but it is powerful. Everyone on the battlefield could feel a breeze blowing from the other side of the mountain. Then the wind became stronger and stronger, and the sound of the wind became louder and louder.

Finally, the leaders emerged collectively in the storm.

They are the Windleader Legion led by Levi and Riven, the German Mage Corps led by Lux, the German Expeditionary Force led by Jarvan and Galen, the Vastaya Free Army led by Xayah and Rakan, and the German Mage Corps led by Irelia. The Presidio Resistance Army, the Wuji Sword Sect, the Shadow Stream Sect, the Gale Sword Sect, the Kinkou Sect... and so on.

These mountain warfare masters, who had caused the imperial army endless complaints in the past two months, actually gave up their terrain advantage and walked out of the mountains and dense forests.

They stood guard on the wilderness of Wuji Mountain Pass, and faced off against the hundreds of thousands of troops from the Noxus Empire on this flat and open terrain.

"This..." Vladimir frowned deeply: "These guys actually came out of the mountain on their own initiative?"

"Is it you?!" He looked at Du Couture suspiciously.

But Du Cacao just secretly breathed a sigh of relief and replied in a natural tone: "The deployment of hundreds of thousands of troops cannot be hidden from the eyes of enemy scouts."

"Sir, you have issued such an unreasonable order to the army. The leader will be suspicious and choose to take the initiative... This situation is not impossible."

"Humph!" Vladimir snorted coldly, not sure if he believed it or not.

"Although things didn't go as you wanted, it's a good thing to be able to force the leader out of the mountains, isn't it?" Du Cacao did not hide his satisfaction with the current situation.

And he was right.

In the past two months, the terrain advantage occupied by the leader has always been the most troublesome place for the imperial army.

Now that they have voluntarily given up their terrain advantage and come to the plains outside the mountains to square up to the Imperial army, this advantage is now on Noxus's side.

Noxus has nearly 150,000 troops, and those who are leading the charge...

Don't look at the people in front of you who are announcing the names of the dishes. There are a lot of forces coming. But in fact, adding up the number of participants from Wind Leader, Ionia, and Demacia, only 10,000 people have arrived at the scene.

"150,000 vs. 10,000, the advantage is obviously mine."

With such a huge advantage in a head-on battle with the Leader, Noxus might be able to gain this precious victory without the Black Rose taking action.

Thinking of this, Vladimir's expression softened a little.

Then, almost at the same time, the leaders showed up and simply formed their formation...

The three Noxian war regiments in the distance of the two men suddenly started to act on their own without receiving any orders.

They were not enthusiastic and took the initiative to charge at the leader who appeared in front of them; rather, they greased the soles of their feet and fled towards the side of the battlefield without hesitation in front of the enemy.

The 10,000-strong army of the leader stood in front. They watched the three Noxian warbands retreat without intervening or pursuing them.

In addition, the soldiers of Noxus have always been well-trained. Not only are they aggressive like fire when attacking, but they are also like wind when retreating——

So within a moment, a clearing suddenly appeared on the battlefield.

The original mighty 150,000 imperial army soon lost 3 battle groups totaling 50,000 troops, leaving only 100,000 troops.

"Those are...people from Leicester?!" Du Cacao's expression was very ugly.

With his eyesight, he could certainly see what kind of trick Lester was using - that bastard must have reached some secret agreement with the leader in advance, so that the two parties could cooperate so well.

"Damn it, he is treason and collaborating with the enemy!" Du Kecao cursed angrily.

For so many years of leading troops, this was the first time he encountered such a shameful traitor who escaped from the battlefield and collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country.

However, after scolding him, thinking of himself last night... his face became cloudy and ugly again.

"General, do you want to pursue me?" the adjutant approached cautiously.

"No!" Du Cacao swallowed his anger silently and regained his composure: "Let's concentrate our forces to deal with the leader first, and then we can settle the score with the traitor after the war."

150,000 to 50,000, the situation is still 100,000 vs. 10,000, the advantage is still with me.

But if the 50,000 men were to pursue Leicester and force Leicester completely to the side of the leader, then the situation would probably be 100,000 versus 60,000... By then, who would have the advantage? It's hard to say.

"The 10,000 people who lead the way..." Du Cacao was keenly aware of the enemy's strength: "I'm afraid it's not simple."

According to his previous speculation, the leader's total strength in the Wuji Mountains should be 20,000. If you include the large rebel force in the neighboring province of Navoli, you can even assemble an army of 100,000.

But at this moment, on this frontal battlefield where the two armies faced each other, the leader actually only dispatched about 10,000 troops.

"Are the others still ambushing in the mountains? Or... does the leader have another trump card, and is he confident that he can defeat the empire's 100,000-strong army with just these 10,000 elite troops?"

Du Cacao secretly speculated on the enemy's psychology, but at this time, the leader seemed to give an answer with action.

Behind the 10,000 leaders, in the rolling Wuji Mountains, there were waves of distant and hazy sounds.

The sound was unclear at first, but later it not only became clearer, but also gradually gained an overwhelming and earth-shattering momentum.

It was the sound of engines roaring, steam roaring, and steel grinding against the earth.

Soon, along with the steam clouds that seemed to cover the sky and the sun, a machine army composed of steel monsters appeared on the mountain not far away and appeared in front of everyone.

"That's..." All the Noxian soldiers present were surprised.

Only a few well-informed officers know the origins of those steel monsters: "The steam robots of Zaun?"

"This..." Du Kecao was stunned for a while.

Steam robots, weren't they used to clean up toxic waste in ditch areas in Zaun in the past?

This thing is slow, slow in movement, low in intelligence, and has no attack methods. It has no advantages other than low cost, rough skin and thick flesh.

Therefore, from the first day it was designed, it was never a combat robot responsible for fighting, but a daily-use robot responsible for cleaning up garbage, carrying heavy objects, and doing some dirty work for the people of Shuangcheng.

How can this kind of civilian product be used on the battlefield on a large scale?

Just as Du Cacao was thinking this, he saw the steam robots with a rustic brass luster, like soldiers entering a preset position, collectively stopping at the highest point of the mountain.

They bent down prostrately to the ground, like deploying the support rods of a cannon, and dug their legs and feet deeply into the soil.

Then, huge cannons inlaid with Hex gems revealed thick and ferocious muzzles from the split and deformed back armor of these steam robots:

"Expand——"

"H-28Q cutting-edge turret!"
