Three days later, Kant and his troops arrived at the mountain.
Groups of desert bandits were brandishing their scimitars and spears, riding their robust desert horses as they whizzed across the plains. They were all grinning ferociously, as if they were real bandits.
Desert bandits were light cavalry, scout cavalry, and bandits who had no scruples!
Especially when they came to the area around their destination.
They were like wild horses that had lost their reins.
They had lost their discipline.
Only cruelty and brutality remained!
Because in this core area of the Crimson Sect near the Mountain of Death, there were no longer any innocents or good people. Everyone had been becoming fanatics of the Crimson Sect and became their enemies.
The seemingly ordinary villages and farms were in fact completely empty.
Even the supplies and grain reserves had been taken away.
As for the well in the village, it had become a fishy-smelling deep water pit with a strange red glow. It had obviously been poisoned and destroyed!
However, Kant had long expected this because everyone in this army had brought enough food and water for seven days. They were all simple breads and sausages that could be eaten with a little heat.
Their supplies could last until they reached Mountain of Death and support them through an arduous battle.
Then, they would defeat the other side.
They would obtain the supplies stored by the other side.
Even if the other side burned their own supplies, it didn’t matter.
With the momentum of his victory, Kant could ask the East County’s noble families to contribute some supplies. Even the peasant villages that he didn’t offend along the way could become his supply points.
Kant did not offend them. He just wanted to leave a good impression so that he could reap more benefits in the future.
For example, he would not have to worry about the supply issue.
And even the communication in the future.
Slowly, he would infiltrate the East County, using absolute force and strict discipline to let the noble families and peasant families understand that the new conqueror, Kant, the second son of the Grand Duke, Cameron, was truly merciful!
But now, Kant also wanted to let the people of the Crimson Sect on Mountain of Death what was the greatest fear from their hearts.
The desert bandits whistled past.
They formed a team of 10 people, like knives that cut through meat, cutting through the various garrisons around Mountain of Death.
Those were the fanatics who took the initiative, holding simple wooden spears and garrisoned in the shack as spies, tried to slow down Kant and the others from advancing.
But they were nothing to the desert bandits.
They were just a bunch of trash.
From the looks of it, this group of zealots were sallow and emaciated. On their skinny faces, there was only fanaticism in their eyes. They looked like they had been brainwashed. They held simple wooden spears, or even no spearheads. They were just sharpened wooden sticks and baked hard with charcoal.
They were not even using the proper weapon They were just tools in the hands of the wandering villagers to barely defend themselves!
They were not even good tools!
The desert bandits swept past.
The scimitars in their hands easily cut through the wooden poles, and then they rode past. The scimitars swung horizontally, and as the sharp blade cut through the neck, it instantly cut through the spine, and the entire head was sent flying in the air.
With a blank and fanatical gaze, they finally fell heavily to the ground, rolling like a ball.
The headless body had no sign of life.
In a shack, there were about 30 fanatics, but they were easily slaughtered by the desert bandits.
The battle didn’t even last for a few minutes.

These people who were bewitched and lost their rationality, these fanatics couldn’t be considered as ordinary people.
To the desert bandits, even if they were ordinary people, they would still kill them. In the Sarrand Desert, they were all vicious horse bandits. They had killed many villagers back and forth. Their hands had covered with the blood of innocents.
They were bandits after all.
Even if they were recruited by Kant and were restricted by strict discipline, they still couldn’t avoid their savage nature!
Shacks were slaughtered one by one. Fanatical and bewitched believers were slaughtered around Mountain of Death. As the blood spread, the desert bandits had mercilessly cleared out a pure land without any enemies for Kant.
The shacks on the outskirts of Mountain of Death were all demolished, and the believers of Crimson Sect were all killed.
The outer positions had been completely lost.
And during this period of time, at the foot of Mountain of Death, there was a troop of long lance soldiers trained by Avilis Castle. They were already in formation, and behind them were many fanatical believers who wore black robes and held shields and longsword in their hands.
There were even cavalry wearing black robes waiting quietly with spears in their hands.
Kant led the army forward.
The distance between the two sides was about a kilometer.
A silent confrontation.
The desert bandits that had originally dispersed had all returned. Under the arrangements of Baheshtur, they wantonly wandered around the front, back, left, and right of the formation, as if they could transform into charging cavalry at any time.
This was the classic tactic of the Khergit Khanate.
If not for the fact that these desert bandits only had short pilums with a range of about 20 meters, the war would have already begun.
The range of the archers and cavalries could reach 80 meters. Although the power of the galloping horses was also relatively small and could not compare to the arrows shot by the footmen with all their strength. However, they could launched an arrow rain attack to impact the enemies.
As long as the enemy formation was disturbed, the heavy cavalries would have chance to charge forward.
They would completely tear apart the enemy formation!
However, all of this could not be achieved. Desert bandits who were only equipped with short pilums were more suitable for close combat after disrupting the enemies. They would use their scimitars and spears to open a gap in the enemy formation and charge in to kill.
With 2,000 desert bandits, they would be able to attack the enemy from all directions.
This was the advantage of number.
They were not in a hurry.
Kant himself was not in a hurry, so he did not give the order to attack.
Instead, he sized up the army that was organized by the Crimson Sect. He could not help but narrow his eyes and let out a chuckle. “I really did not expect Viscount Gibran to be able to gather so many troops.”
“But they cannot withstand a single blow.” Baheshtur, who was beside him, complimented.
At the front, the Crimson Sect’s army numbered more than ten thousand people.
Most of them were lance soldiers. They were all wearing mail armor and a small number of them were wearing mail armor.
In their hands were good-quality long spears that were meticulously forged by blacksmiths. They carried a chilling aura and were as dense as a forest of spears. After all, the number of these lance soldiers was estimated to be five thousand.
Behind them, there were about 3,000 fanatics who wore black robes and held a round shield and longsword.
If one looked carefully, one could see that under the black robes were mail armor.
These fanatics were the elites.
As for the archers in front of them, there were close to 1,000 of them. They wore simple leather armor and held short bows. They looked dispirited and did not attract much attention. To put it simply, they were just a group of hunters.
Avilis Castlewas close to the Senwaya Range, so the peasants there were also hunters.
However, this kind of short bow they used could not pose much of a threat.
It was even worse than the cavalry that had 1,000 people beside them.
Everyone was wearing mail armor. The warhorses were also covered in a black robe. They held a lance in their hand, and its entire body was covered by a black robe. Only their eyes were exposed, and it carried a fanatical desire for war.
All of them were knight attendants!
