Lux's Magic Penetration Rod

Chapter 711 Ending·The Grand March

After Lux's swearing-in speech, Northern Walkers, who harbored the idea of ​​"New Glory", began a large-scale mobilization step by step.

The nobles who had reached an agreement with the United Front took the initiative to open the city gates and welcomed the Northern Walkers as they entered and stationed themselves in the city.

Those nobles who chose to resist were mostly beaten down by Northern Walkers. Although many cities in the Northern Territory maintained private armies, the quality of the private armies can only be described as uneven. In addition, they were not on the front line, and most of the cities were located in Where transportation is convenient, a thousand Northern Walkers are often enough to sweep all the way.

For example, the partial division led by Ino to Irwindale almost always maintained a marching speed of a hundred miles a day, and there was no shortage of cities they visited.

During this period, many northern lords wanted to stand on the top of the city and reprimand the "rebellion" with dignity, but unfortunately, they often had to prepare to escape before they could finish their words, because Yi Nuo didn't care about your words at all, he just led the people and started charging at the city wall.

Then, these lords were waiting with great interest one second for these "rebellious people" to die under their own arrows, and the next second they were stunned by the scene in front of them.

Under the cover of the Northern Walkers and the leadership of Ino, the second sequence of mages quickly created a large area of ​​solid ice, easily forming a slope leading directly to the city.

Then without any need for Ino to greet him, Snow Walker stepped on the solid ice and started to attack the city wall.

Have any of the northern nobles ever seen this?

No, let alone the northern nobles. Looking at the entire Runeterra, this method of cooperative fighting between warriors and spellcasters has been lost for thousands of years!

Although most of these city walls are made of forbidden magic stones, and magic bombardment is almost completely ineffective, but who among the second-order magicians would be so stupid as to bombard the city walls with magic?

Wouldn’t it be nice to use a road of ice and snow to pave the way for travelers in the snow field?

Do you think we are Noxian fools when we rely on spells to attack us despite the high magic resistance of runesteel armor?

And with the construction of the ice and snow road completed, the snowfield walkers swarmed forward, and the winner of the subsequent battle would soon be determined - in front of the well-equipped, well-organized, and well-trained snowfield walkers, private armies from various places, although some, could also give them A bit of resistance, but this resistance is somewhat symbolic.

On the one hand, this is because these private armies are indeed incapable of fighting, and on the other hand, most of the nobles who are not included in the united front are not good birds. When the private armies under their command faced Fosbarrow's Snow Walkers, most of them I didn’t have much fighting spirit, so I gave in when the wind was against me.

Only a few ambitious nobles who were kind to their subordinates brought some trouble to Ino, and she needed to solve it personally.

Because Enoch and Snow Walker's siege was too smooth and too fast, as they headed east toward Irwindale, often by the time those who escaped from the previous city arrived at the next city, the flags on the city's head had already been was replaced.

The result is that others' destruction is done by rushing to defeat the troops, while Ino's destruction is by riding a cart and rushing faster than the troops are routed...

In just thirty-six days, Ino led the team from Forsbarrow to the gates of Owendale.

Owendale's First Northern Army was stunned.

The news they received a month ago was that they had just completed the assembly half a month ago. Now the city has not yet fully entered a fighting state. There is not even a single reported rout. How come the rebels are approaching the city?

Owendale has a city defense plan, but because the enemies in the past were all barbarians, its city defense plans were all for winter. Now, enemies are rushing over in this summer...

Shocked the people of Owendale all year long.

However, after all, the soldiers stationed in Owendale were not the private troops of the nobles, but the regular border troops. Although the morale of the soldiers of the First Army of the North was frustrated, they still entered a fighting state under the command of the commander-in-chief and planned to defend the city.

And Ino, who had been charging fiercely all the way, finally stopped cautiously when facing the wall of Irwindale.

Owendale is a mountain city, and it is a mountain city standing on a cliff. It is even more dangerous than Forsbarrow City - it is basically a gap in the east-west mountain peak, and then Two walls were built on the north and south sides, that's all!

This majestic city in the north, known as the "Home of Dragon Birds", if viewed from a high altitude, is simply a giant dragon bird nest. However, this nest is not inhabited by dragon birds, but the number one dragon bird in the north. Legion!

Looking up at the city, Ino couldn't describe his feelings in words for a moment. According to the scouts' information, if he wanted to board Owendale, he would have to walk up the seven or eight-mile winding mountain road from the east or west of the city. Or start from the south of the city, climb the mountain and climb over the city wall, climbing at least 2,000 feet.

Want to build an ice and snow road to reach the city?

Even if Ino drains his magic, he may not be able to build this road.

Under this situation, Ino could only convene a military meeting. She and all the commanders of the Snow Walkers sat down and discussed. In the end, everyone unanimously decided that storming Owendale was really unavoidable.

So, the Snow Walkers split into two, blocked the two exits of Irwindale City from the east to the west, set up camp, and spent their time here.

……………………

When Ino's troops entered the city of Owendale, Jarvan IV also formally set out from the capital with a counter-rebellion army.

According to the plan, they would go north along the Melan River, rely on water transportation for supplies, and continue to assemble the team on the road until Lithos completely completed the assembly.

However, what Jarvan IV did not expect was that the seemingly normal advance plan failed from the very beginning - Forsbarrow's river fleet completely took control of the Melan River.

Just when the army left the capital and just passed through Edessa, the next night, the Forsperone River Fleet raided the supply ship of Jarvan IV's army and burned at least two thousand tons of food.

That night, as he looked at the burning river, Jarvan IV's face turned red. He couldn't tell whether it was because of the firelight or because he was simply angry.

If that's all, forget it.

After realizing it, Jarvan IV quickly mobilized Demacia's poor navy and tried to escort the grain and grass supplies. However, the river fleet did not hesitate to attack down the river. The two sides launched a battle in Dessa Bay on the Melan River. A big battle.

As a result, even on the river bank, Jarvan IV provided as much fire cover as he could, but the Demacia navy still lost completely. Although the size of the ships of the Forsperone River Fleet was not large, they used The river fleet with small Hex kinetic energy cannons still dealt a crushing blow to the Demacian navy using trebuchets.

The trebuchet on the Demacia navy was still being calibrated, but the shells from the magic cannon over there had penetrated the side of the ship, causing a fire.

Jarvan IV's face turned red again, and in the end he had no choice but to rescue those navy soldiers.

The Forsperone River Fleet was not in a hurry. Seeing the opponent's ship fleeing at full speed down the river, as if it was about to enter the port, they quickly turned the ship around, manipulated the sails, and sailed against the current in the southeast wind. Soon Almost gone.

The angry Jarvan IV finally gave up his plan to march by water, and instead recruited people from noble fiefdoms along the way to help transport military supplies.

I no longer rely on water to transport grain and baggage!

But unfortunately, this is not over yet.

After Jarvan IV continued his march north for three days, Forsbarrow's river fleet attacked the city of Edessa and nearly captured the Watergate.

After receiving the news, Jarvan IV was finally furious - why is this navy army as disgusting as brown candy?

But no matter how disgusting he was, Jarvan IV had to detach some soldiers to increase defense forces at important ports on the Melan River to avoid sneak attacks by these rebellious people.

After the division of troops, the Forsperone River Fleet seemed to have finally calmed down. Apart from continuing to sail across the river and beating gongs and drums for propaganda from time to time, they were finally no longer able to cause trouble to Jarvan IV.

In this way, after nearly more than a month, Jarvan IV finally arrived in the Forsbarrow area.

And here, Lux and Northern Walker have already made full preparations.
