The 10th army is at the forefront.

Su Cheng has felt the cool wind with water vapor blowing in his face.

It's almost there! Five more miles to Ellen ferry!

"Woo... It's so cold." Alan shrunk his shoulders while complaining about the cold wind.

After more than ten days of trekking, it was late October and now it is November.

After entering November, Su Cheng felt that the temperature had begun to decrease significantly and had begun to slowly enter winter.

Su Cheng felt it roughly. The current temperature is about 13 degrees to 18 degrees.

However, for the possible reduction of temperature, the British Empire had already prepared for it. Before the army set out, it had already mobilized enough warm clothes, stoves and coal for 100000 troops. Therefore, the army did not need to worry about the reduction of temperature.

However, Alan has always been afraid of the cold, so although she has put on enough warm clothes in her armor, she still can't help shrinking her shoulders when the cool wind blows.

"Brother!" Alan put out his hands to Su Cheng with a bitter face. "My hands are so cold!"

Su Cheng helplessly took Alan's cold hands and gently warmed her up.

"Bear it again, Alan. Wow, your hands are so cold. Why are you so cold intolerant... When you get back to panderagon, I'll buy you a pair of gloves. "

"Hey, hey, brother's hands are so warm."

"Wow... Mom, help me. There are two brothers and sisters showing intimacy here." One side of the Deng make complaints about the forehead.

"We're about to get to Ellen ferry." Su Cheng said, "just now coach Nicholas also sent the latest information: Ellen cloth has tens of thousands of heavy troops to hold the East Bank of Ellen ferry. We can reach Ellen ferry almost five miles away, so we will start fighting soon. You two should be ready."

"Brother." Alan suddenly said, "is that Alan Jones strong? How do you feel that people around you are so afraid of him? "

"Yes, this Alan Jones is terrible."

Su Cheng continued to rub Alan's hands, and then said, "there are two biggest threats in our campaign. One is Alan Jones, who now commands 80000 troops in the Caroline Kingdom, and the other is the 4000 armored paladins Alan brought from the Frankish empire."

"Alan Jones is a famous general of the Frankish empire. He not only has extraordinary strategy and command ability, but also has great courage. He is especially good at commanding cavalry. He is a terrible general with both wisdom and courage. When fighting, he likes to take the lead and personally lead the cavalry to charge. It is precisely because of his bravery that he has been given the nickname "steel bone."

"Over the past ten years, Allen's performance has also been extremely dazzling in the war between our British Empire and the Frankish Empire, which has made our British Empire suffer a lot. Therefore, many people in our British Empire are very afraid of Allen."

"As for the armored paladins, they are the trump troops of the Frankish empire. Like the holy Helan Empire, the Frankish Empire borders the prairie in the East. The prairie is rich in good horses. The Frankish empire will regularly buy good horses from the prairie people. Therefore, the Frankish Empire has formed a powerful cavalry team with these good horses purchased from the prairie. "

At this time, Alan answered, "it's the armored Paladin, isn't it?"

"Well, that's right." Su Cheng nodded, "the Frankish Empire has formed a 20000 strong heavy cavalry force, which is the armored holy cavalry. The iron paladin is a heavy cavalry. All men and horses wear heavy armor. When charging, they have strong lethality. "

Speaking of this, Su Cheng paused for a moment before continuing:

"In this way, the Frankish empire is quite interesting to the Carolingian kingdom. It sent the famous general Allen to help. Unexpectedly, it sent 4000 armored paladins with only 20000 people to help."

"It's just, sir." Deng Jiaer suddenly said, "now Allen chooses to stick to the East Bank of Ellen ferry and doesn't let us cross the river successfully, then his armored holy cavalry can't play its role. The heavy cavalry can't play too much combat power in guarding the river. In this way, our threat in this battle is only Allen."

"I hope so." Ellen smiled bitterly.

……

Before the sun completely sank below the horizon, the British army finally walked the last five miles to the West Bank of Ellen ferry!

After arriving at the West Bank of Yilun ferry, you can see that the East Bank of Yilun ferry is now full of flags, and various simple fortifications have been built.

It seems that Allen has been waiting for them at Ellen ferry for a long time!

In this way, the 100000 britannian Imperial Army on the West Bank of Ellen ferry and the 60000 Carolingian Royal Army on the East Bank of Ellen ferry began to confront each other across the broad surface of the Fu River!

After arriving at the Ellen ferry, Nicholas ordered to camp. Because it was too late now and the army needed to rest and recover their strength, Nicholas did not arrive at the Ellen ferry, so he launched an attack on the other side.

When ordering the encampment, Nicholas did not forget to tell people to keep an eye on the movements of the enemy in the opposite direction and not to let the enemy attack when they have just arrived and their physical strength has not recovered.

……

Night.

Fu River, Ellen ferry.

The lights on both sides of the Ellen ferry were bright, and the dazzling fire almost lit up half of the sky.

Because now the east wind is hanging, and the cold wind blows from the east bank, blowing across the broad and dark water surface of the Fu River to the West Bank.

Following the cool wind, the officers and men of the Britannia Imperial Army on the West Bank could vaguely hear the speech and laughter of the king Caroline army camp on the east bank.

At this time, the commander-in-chief of the British Imperial Army was in the camp.

The commanders, deputy commanders and commander-in-chief Nicholas of the whole army are gathering in the commander-in-chief camp.

"According to the information sent by the king of Lund Kingdom," said Nicholas, who was sitting in the main seat, "they saw with their own eyes that the enemy troops besieged the city pulled out and left, but about 20000 people remained to besiege helun city. In other words, the number of enemy troops on the other side is about 60000."

"That's good." Enly said, "now the number advantage of our army has been strengthened. In this way, it will be easier to attack the Ellen ferry."

"It's just," Eliza frowned, "the east wind is hanging now! We attack from the West Bank to the east bank. This wind direction is very unfavorable to us. Should we stay on the West Bank first and attack again when the wind direction changes? "

Nicholas shook his head.

"The current wind direction is not so easy to change, and we can only bite the bullet, but fortunately, the current wind is not too strong, and we will not fall into too much disadvantage."

Nicholas stood up with a shout.

"Well, it's so decided! Early tomorrow morning, we will attack Ellen ferry! The 1st army, the 3rd army and the 6th army serve as the main attack! Early tomorrow morning, the first army will attack first! "

As soon as Nicholas's voice fell, the commanders and Deputy commanders shouted in unison:

"Yes!"

Subsequently, the meeting ended, and the commanders and Deputy commanders successively walked out of the commander-in-chief camp.

This time, Su Cheng, like last time, always stood behind, didn't say a word, and was a quiet little transparent.

Su Cheng didn't come up with any good strategies and tactics for the river crossing campaign. The Fuhe River has a large amount of water and a rapid flow. There is no other place to cross the river except the Yilun ferry. When there is only one ferry, there are no other tricks and tactics to play except to attack the ferry by relying on the quality and quantity of strong soldiers.

After leaving the commander's camp, Su Cheng went straight to his army account.

When I was walking towards my military account, I suddenly heard someone shouting behind me:

"Hello! Su Cheng! Wait a minute! "

Su Cheng looked back at the sound.

Is one of the "Gemini generals", serving as the commander of the 7th army!

Enly pushed his chin aside and said, "come with me. I have something to tell you."

Although Su Cheng doesn't know what enli wants to say to him, it's not good to directly say "thank you, I won't go", so Su Cheng still chooses to follow enli and listen to what enli wants to say to him.

In this battle, the "twin generals" of the British Empire also participated. Enry hunt served as the commander of the 7th army and Eliza Hill served as the commander of the 10th army.

At this time, Eliza was about to go to her military tent. When she went back to her military tent, her eyes suddenly caught two familiar figures.

Huh? Isn't this enly? And Su Cheng? What are they going to do?

Eliza was puzzled. She knew that although she didn't know the reason, enly didn't like Su Cheng more than she did. What were they going to do for two big nights?

In order to dispel her doubts, Eliza decided to follow them secretly!

……

Enli led Su Cheng to a remote place in the army camp. There was no light at all. Su Cheng could only rely on the moonlight to see everything around him.

After arriving at this remote place, enli finally stopped, then turned around and looked directly at Su Cheng - but it was too dark here and Su Cheng couldn't see his face clearly, but according to his body contour, enli really looked directly at him.

However, neither Su Cheng nor enli noticed that behind a tree behind Su Cheng, a beautiful shadow was hiding here.

Eliza, hiding behind the tree, quietly stretched out half a small head and secretly looked at Su Cheng and enli.

Fortunately, it was dark here. Neither enly nor Su Cheng found Eliza hiding here to eavesdrop on their conversation.

"Su Cheng," enly said, "compete with me!"

"Ha?"

Su Cheng looked mistily at enli.

Eliza, hiding behind the tree, was also confused at this time. She didn't know why enly suddenly had to compete with Su Cheng.

"To tell you the truth, I don't like you." Enly continued, "I always thought you were just someone who can talk about military and art of war, but after you beat 30000 with 5000 people, I have to admit your talent."

"But I still feel dissatisfied!" Enly suddenly shouted, "although I admit your talent, I really want to know - which is stronger, you and me!"

"So, through the rescue war of Lund Kingdom, let's have a try and see who can win greater achievements in the rescue war of Lund kingdom!"

Su Cheng looked at enli in silence.

He said in his heart: is there nothing wrong with this young man? What's the difference between this kind of thing? Is it that self-esteem is too strong, so you can't allow anyone of your peers to be better than him?

At this time, Su Cheng suddenly remembered what Jacob had told him before: enli was narrow-minded and had no tolerance for others.

At this time, enly then said, "if I win, you just need to lead me in the stirrup and lead me into pandragon. If you win, you can do whatever you want. As long as you don't violate morality and law, you can let me do anything."

"Oh? Really? "

Su Cheng was not interested in enli's game and just wanted to refuse directly, but now he is interested!

Su Cheng thought for a while and then said, "well, I'll take part in your competition. Anyway, it's nothing for me to lead you into panderagon. Therefore, it doesn't matter whether I win or lose in this competition, so I don't care about the win or loss of this competition."

"I've thought about it now. What I want you to do for me after you lose."

"What's up?" Enly spoke softly.

"I want you not to meet and talk to Eliza for two months."

"What?!"

Enly's tone was not calm for a moment.

At this point, behind the trees.

Eliza covered her lips. She almost screamed just now, but in a hurry, she bit her tongue and held back the scream that had rushed to her mouth.

Eliza shouted in her heart:

You just play. What do you want me to do!

"Why should I not meet and talk to Eliza for two months?" Enley asked anxiously.

After hearing enly's question, Eliza quickly pricked up her ears. She was also curious why Su Cheng said such a thing.

"Well... Well."

Su Cheng pondered.

The reason why he said this was because he vaguely felt that enly liked Eliza!

During the ten days of marching, when it was time to rest, enly would always run from the 7th army to their 10th army to chat and talk to Eliza.

Therefore, Su Cheng feels that enli must like Eliza. Even if she doesn't like it, she must have a good impression.

Therefore, in order to satisfy his bad taste, Su Cheng asked enli not to meet and talk with Eliza in two months if she lost.

However, Su Cheng didn't want to tell enli that he was trying to satisfy his bad taste - he decided to tell him gently.

"Because," said Su Cheng, "I don't want to see you meet and talk to Eliza."

As soon as the voice fell, Su Cheng was complacent: what I said is really good! Euphemism and no lying!

After hearing Su Cheng's words, enli showed an unbelievable expression, but it was too dark for Su Cheng to see his expression clearly.

Alisa as like as two peas behind the tree, the same expression as enli at the moment - astonished and unbelievable.

Eliza whispered in her heart: don't want to see me meet and talk with enly... What do you mean? I seem to have heard some of my female friends say that when a boy doesn't want another boy to have too much contact with a girl, it means——

Eliza, who realized something, suddenly felt that her cheeks were a little hot.

If Eliza had a mirror in her hand now, she would see that her cheeks were beginning to turn red.

At this time, the dialogue between enli and Su Cheng began again.

"Su Cheng..." enli said in a deep voice, "can you say that you are right to Eliza..."

Enli was interrupted by Su Cheng before he finished his words.

"Well, just think about it." Su Cheng shrugged with a bad smile. "Anyway, don't forget what I told you to do after losing the game."

After saying that, Su Cheng turned and left directly.

Aware that Su Cheng was leaving, Eliza, whose cheeks were still red, quickly buried her body in the shadow of the trees.

Through the shadow of the trees and the surrounding dark environment, Eliza successfully covered up her trace. Su Cheng, who was leaving, didn't notice that behind a tree not far away, she was hiding from a girl with red and hot cheeks.
