Chapter 252 Breakthrough
"It's not a solution to continue like this." Yilwen said, "The other party intends to make the whole city starve to death. If we continue to stay here, we will only have a sad ending, so we must rush out."
"But..." Although the generals around knew that Yilwen was right, of course they were unwilling to give up the main city. Padktin City is the holy land of their elves. How could they give up if they say they gave up?
"His Highness, I have objections." said a general next to him. "The enemy should have known that we may abandon the city, so we must be waiting for us outside now. Have you forgotten about the main city of humanity?"
The elves knew what happened in the main city of the human race before. First, the opponent was bombed with artillery and had to abandon the city, and then when the opponent was about to break through, this was already a tactic that Ye Junwen used. Now it seems to be a perfect reappearance on them. How can you not be prepared?
"I know, but in the current situation, we have no other choice. Those who stay here can only wait for death." Yilwen said, "With the soldiers still have physical strength now, we will try a breakthrough now and may rush out. Otherwise, if we wait until tomorrow, the soldiers' physical strength will probably be exhausted, and even if we want to leave, it will be too late."
It is true that although the soldiers are vomiting very hard now, they still have some physical strength. However, if they don’t eat anything tomorrow, no matter how strong they are, they can’t stand it. It is true that they have no other choice, so it is definitely not possible to pray that the other party can let them go.
After discussing it, the final solution is to break through. There is indeed no other solution. Since the solution has been determined, the remaining problem is how to break through. First of all, the direction of the breakthrough is similar to what Edron expected. First of all, the south and east sides were eliminated. The remaining problem is the west and north directions. Of course, the west side is a better choice. There are more cities in the west. If you run to the north, you will be bounded by other countries after a while. If you have no place to run, you will be troublesome.
"I object. Since we can think so, the enemy will definitely think so. I think there must be an enemy ambush in the west." The person who spoke was Osseth. Although she was the assistant appointed by Ilwen, she had never spoken before. It was not until now that she spoke for the first time. "If others don't say it, that demon can definitely think of this, so I think West is very dangerous."
"I'll go and reconnaise." An elf suddenly spoke next to him.
Yi Erwen thought for a while and then nodded. It was not that she could not move outside, but she would be disgusted as soon as she went out. However, according to her level as the captain of the guard, she should be able to finish the investigation soon.
After waiting for a while, the elves responsible for the investigation came back. They first sucked a few breaths of fresh air, and then reported the situation they found.
Yes, just as they were discussing here, the enemy had already started to act. The opponent's artillery troops still fired several guns from time to time to maintain the concentration of poison gas in the city, but the opponent's infantry team approached their city, and then divided into four teams, surrounding them in four directions, southeast, west, and north, which was to block them.
However, what is strange is that except for the west, there are about 30,000 troops gathered at the city gates in the other three directions, and only a few thousand troops are only in the west. This is indeed very strange. Ye Junwen's troops are not hidden, or anything else, they are all standing outside the city brightly, of course they are all outside the range of bows and arrows. They also know that the elves' troops are very weak now, and it doesn't matter how many troops you have, so you will definitely be able to take it.
"Sure enough, there are some problems. Although there are only a few thousand troops in the west, it feels like it is a trap prepared for us." With this distribution, anyone can feel that there is a problem.
"If the troops in the west are not wrong, they are the special musket troops under the demon." Ossei said here. "Although they have a relatively small number, this unit is his ace force. The opponent's muskets are very special. They can not only be continuously fired, but have almost no attack intervals, and can be used even on rainy days, with almost no weaknesses."
Osseus was defeated like this, of course he immediately told them about this situation. But even if she didn't say it, the others didn't plan to break through the west again. After all, there was obviously a trap, so they couldn't be so stupid and really got in.
"Since that's the case, we can only break through from the north." Yilwen said.
"I have a suggestion." At this time, Osseus suddenly said, "In fact, we can divide the troops, some of us breaking out from the west, and some of us breaking out from the north."
"Ha?" Everyone was stunned.
"I took some of my soldiers to break through the west," said Osse.
Although Osces did not continue to say it, everyone quickly understood what she meant. It was obviously because she wanted to die. There was definitely an ambush in the west, and Osces took the initiative to send it out to attract the enemy's gaze to the west, so that the rest of them could break out from the north.
"Osess, you can't..."
"Stop talking, Ilwen..." Seeing that Ilwen seemed to be ready to persuade him, Ossei immediately interrupted her, "I should have sacrificed on the battlefield long ago. It was my wrong judgment that caused the death of 150,000 brothers and sisters. I was extremely guilty and should have paid for their lives. However, my mission has not been completed. Now it seems that I have survived for this moment. And now, it is time for me to atone for my sins."
Osces had made up her mind, and Yilwen also looked at it and found that the other generals seemed to agree with this method. They also believed that Osces, who caused the death of 150,000 troops, was responsible and she had to pay the price, so it was time for the other party to propose this method himself.
Yilwen couldn't say anything. She wanted to do this for Osces if she could, but her identity did not allow her to be so willful. So soon, the plan was passed, and Yilwen also immediately ordered to notify all troops to prepare for action.
The time of the action was still in the early morning. Although they also heard that during the attack and defense battle in the main city of humans, the opponent was also caught by Ye Junwen at night when he was preparing to break through, but after all, it was still difficult to detect at night, and the enemy should be very sleepy at this time, which still had some impact.
When the agreed time was reached, the first thing that started to act was the breakout troops in the west. Of course, the soldiers here already knew their destiny and did not hide it from them. This breakout in the west was just to attract attention, which was equivalent to being a death-sending force. However, the soldiers did not feel any fear. Their hatred for the human army had reached its peak. This hatred had already covered their eyes and went out to fight the enemy. Although it was very likely to be ambushed by the enemy, it would be better to be able to kill one or the other than starve to death here.
Ossei also stood in the army silently and looked at the soldiers around her. To be honest, she also felt that there were too few people following her here at the moment. Their goal was to attract the enemy's attention. If the number of people was too small, the enemy might see the problem. However, there was no way. After all, this was a troops to die, and she could not let more people die with her. Now she could only hope that it would be dark at night and the enemy could not see the situation clearly.
However, at this time, the time of operation triggered a special situation. Just when the time they agreed, Osse opened the West City Gate on time, but what she didn't expect was that another group of people appeared behind them at this time.
"Soldiers, I cannot guarantee that you will survive this breakthrough, but you are fighting for the great Queen, and you will always remember this." Osse said simply, then waved his hand directly, "Strike!"
"Kill!" The soldiers also forgot the disgusting smell around them for a while, picked up their weapons and rushed out of the city gate.
"Quick, they're leaving, let's follow!" At this time, a large number of people rushed out from behind Osse and the others. Yes, they were the elf civilians in Padkate. Of course, they came here to run out. They couldn't stay in the city at all. Of course, they also knew that staying here would be suffocated to death and vomited to death, and they wanted to run out too. However, there were human soldiers outside, and they would die if they went out, and they didn't dare.
However, some people also thought that the soldiers of the Elf Clan must also find a way to break through. The only way now is to follow these soldiers out and then see if their luck can run away. At night, they found that the soldiers gathered here, and it seemed that they wanted to break through. The soldiers would definitely notify them, but they could follow them by themselves.
So one person spread to ten or ten times. Many people heard the news, so they followed the soldiers. When the other party opened the city gate, they rushed out and then fled in dispersion.
However, what they didn't know was that this unit was actually a unit that sent death to the death, and was a unit that attracted the attention of the enemy. However, although this was not their original intention, with the help of these people, this unit really attracted a lot of attention.
"Report to the Deputy Marshal, tens of thousands of troops appeared at the West City Gate. The enemy has opened the city gate, as if he is going to break through." The soldier reported to Edron.
