Which unit I am in is the main force in this battle.
——Su Cheng/in daily chat
As soon as Su Cheng passed through the south gate of Chubol Fortress, he saw Adair Acheson, the greatest hero of this battle who had been waiting beside the south gate.
After learning that the young man in front of him was Su Cheng, the leader of the Michael Knights, Adair quickly knelt down on one knee and greeted Su Cheng in half-baked Britannia.
This is the first time Su Cheng meets Adair.
Su Cheng dismounted and helped Adair up, saying:
"Sir Adair, thank you for your help. Thanks to you, we were able to capture this fortress. Thank you for your hard work."
"I dare not take it seriously." Adair shook his head gently, "I only hope that you, the leader, can abide by our agreement."
"That's natural." Su Cheng smiled, "If I don't even have this bit of credit, I'm not worthy of being the leader of a group."
"Acheson, wait a minute! You treasonous and collaborative bastard!"
At this moment, a loud shout suddenly came from the sides of Su Cheng and Adair.
Su Cheng and Adair followed the sound and saw a man dressed as an officer with a red face and yelling curses at Adair.
The officer, whose body was spattered with blood, was being escorted by two soldiers of the Britannia Army.
It can be seen from the current appearance of this officer that this officer was finally captured after experiencing a fierce resistance.
Looking at the captured and escorted officer, Adair's pupils shrank slightly.
Because this officer was the young officer who asked him in an excited tone why after he ordered the hanging door of the south city wall to be lowered.
The young officer flushed with emotion and cursed Adair with all the curse words he could.
Looking at the young officer who was hurling insults at him, Adair pursed his lips, then turned his head away, no longer or daring to look at the young officer.
The two Britannian Army soldiers responsible for escorting the young officer wanted to drag the young officer away.
But at this time, the young officer burst out with amazing strength because he saw his enemy. The two soldiers of the Britannia Army not only failed to pull him, but also allowed him to break away.
After breaking free from the two Britannia Army soldiers behind him, the young officer roared and rushed towards Adair.
However, just when he was only a few steps away from Adair, a petite figure beside Su Cheng moved.
This figure quickly stood between him and Adair at a much faster speed than the young officer, and subdued the young officer to the ground with one move.
This figure is naturally Alan.
The reason why Alan stopped this young officer was not because he wanted to protect Adair, but just because he wanted to protect Su Cheng.
Adair and Su Cheng were very close, and letting this person get close to Adair might hurt Su Cheng. Considering this, Alan stopped the young officer.
This young officer who wanted to eradicate the traitors saw despair and madness gradually appear in his eyes after seeing that his last efforts were in vain.
He turned his head and roared at Alan who was pressing him to the ground: ...
"¥#%x-on:&*! (x-on:¥!#%x-on:—+-=*&%$#x-on:!"
Alan: "...?"
Alan didn't understand Xilan, so he couldn't understand what the young officer was saying.
Therefore, Alan could only turn his head and look at Su Cheng for help.
Su Cheng's proficiency in Sheeran was as good as Britannia, so he naturally understood what the young officer was saying.
"You bastard! Let me go!" - these were the exact words of the young officer.
After hearing what the young officer said, Su Cheng frowned.
"Alan, remove his jaw for me."
"Huh?" Alan asked doubtfully, "Did this guy just say something offensive? Why do you want to remove his jaw?"
"He did say something unpleasant just now, but Alan, you don't want to know what he said specifically."
"Oh... forget it, I'm not very interested anyway."
After saying that, Alan removed the young officer's jaw with a "click" so that he could no longer make a sound, and then returned the young officer to the two Britannia soldiers who were responsible for escorting him. Soldier.

After capturing Chupol Fortress, the combined forces participating in the "Aurora" offensive took a short rest in the fortress.
After a day's rest, the combined corps, with a total strength of 164,000 men, officially followed the original plan, using Chupol Fortress as the force, and divided it into two groups, each marching to attack the target city they were responsible for.
Su Cheng split the United Corps into two armies - the West Route Army and the East Route Army.
The total strength of the West Route Army is 64,000, composed of 40,000 troops of the Uriel Knights, 4,000 armored warriors, and the 3rd Army of the Michael Knights.
The coach is Willie, and the knights under his command include Allen, Enley, Gary...
The goal of the Western Route Army is Otto, an important city located in the northwest of the Holy Hiran Empire. and all the towns along the way.
Otto is an important economic and trade city of the Holy Hiran Empire. It has very high strategic value.
The total strength of the East Route Army is 8
^0^ Remember in one second【】
Ten thousand people, composed of the 1st, 2nd, 4th, 5th and 6th legions of the Knights of Michael.
Commanded by Su Cheng himself, the knights under his command include Alyssa, Deng Jiaer, Raymond, Samuel, Dale...
No matter from the perspective of the number of troops or the composition of the knights, the Eastern Army is undoubtedly the main force in this "Aurora" offensive.
The reason why Su Cheng assigned the most troops and knights to the Eastern Army and commanded it personally is because the Eastern Army's mission is the most difficult.
The Eastern Army's goal is the secondary capital of the Holy Hilan Empire - Ariel, and all the cities along the way.
Although the distance is not as far as the Western Army, there are the most cities along the way, and the difficulty of capturing Ariel is definitely several times that of Otto.
Ariel is the secondary capital of the Holy Hilan Empire and the second largest city in the Holy Hilan Empire.
Su Cheng does not even need to send scouts to spy on intelligence. He can imagine how high and thick the walls of Ariel will be just by thinking with his buttocks.
Moreover, the marching direction of the Eastern Army is all the way east, which is the easiest to encounter the reinforcements of the Holy Hilan Empire.
Although the Holy Xilan Empire is very weak now, no matter how weak it is now, it was once a "superpower" with unfathomable national strength.
Su Cheng does not know how many troops the Holy Xilan Empire still has.
But Su Cheng guessed that it is possible for the Holy Xilan Empire to grit its teeth and squeeze out an army of about 100,000 to meet him.
To be on the safe side, Su Cheng took on the most difficult task of this offensive and personally led the Eastern Route Army to capture Ariel, which was the most difficult, and to meet the Holy Xilan Empire's reinforcements that were very likely to arrive.
Dear, this chapter is over, I wish you a happy reading! ^0^
