"The native Duke didn't want to burn our 150,000 troops to death from the beginning, right?"
A staff officer exclaimed.
"How is it possible? He is not the God of War!" Someone questioned, "It must have happened that the situation ended up like this!"
"What military god? Can we not scare ourselves? Maybe the indigenous Duke didn't think of this at all, and just wanted to use air strikes to consume some of our troops."
The staff officers quarreled, but they all tended to believe that Downton was lucky. There was nothing he could do about it. He was just a civilian postman who had never gone to school. Where did he get these military qualities?
The guards did not dare to interrupt because of their identity issues, but they were all uneasy because the commotion did not stop and the scope of the influence was getting wider and wider.
These people only know that Downton is a postman, but they don’t know that he has experienced too many wars in various identities in dreams, from cold weapons to hot weapons, and has been brutally killed countless times when he dreamed back in the middle of the night.
The scene wakes up.
The five guards who went to check the quality of the forest trees rushed back, causing the staff officers to temporarily put down their disputes and all looked over.
"Commander, there are fat pine trees all around!"
Following the guard's report, Kevin's face turned pale, he whipped his mount hard, and ran uphill to the right. After approaching a pine tree, he jumped down, pulled out his machete and chopped it down.
Click!
The tree trunk fell with the sound, and yellow viscous liquid visibly oozed from the fracture.
The staff officers also had a bad expression, because there was no need to cut it. They saw some tumors on the wrinkled bark of the pine wood, and pine resin was leaking out.
Ordinary people probably only know that the biggest use of this stuff is to make spices. It is very popular with women, but they don't know that this stuff is also very flammable.
At this point, if the staff officers had not understood that Downton intended to launch an attack here, then they would have been eating in vain for so many years.
"Quick, tell the entire army that it is forbidden to run into the pine forests on both sides!"
Kevin gave the order to end his life. Then he suddenly froze and stopped them from running into the pine forest. Where would the defeated troops flee? Forward. It would disrupt their own front and cause an avalanche-like rout. Going backward? Downton's
The soldiers and horses must be chasing after them, and that would be a dead end.
"Is this the so-called conspiracy? Even if you see his tactics, you can't adapt to it?"
Some staff officers looked ashen.
"It's not time to despair yet. Pass the order and tell General Lashen to stop Downton's troops for me!"
A staff officer yelled, but as soon as he finished speaking, the defeated troops spread into the field of vision, and bursts of shouts resounded.
"Run to the woods on both sides!"
"Don't break the line, run to the hillsides on both sides!"
"Get out of the way and walk from both sides, otherwise we will shoot and kill!"
Shouts came one after another, causing the color to drain from the faces of Kevin and the staff officers.
"Why are you dazed? Go and give the order!"
After Kevin finished roaring with all his strength, he saw a firebird made of orange-red hot flames appear from the horizon, flying over the forest as fast as a celestial, and it sprayed out several
The ten-meter-long fire breath, like a fire dragon, instantly ignited the forest.
The oily pine trees were like torches, instantly ignited and illuminating the starry night sky!
"It's over! It's all over!"
Kevin muttered subconsciously, the others were no better, their bodies were trembling, their hands and feet were cold, and in this battle, our own losses would definitely be astronomical.
In order to ensure that the air raid could cause chaos to the enemy forces at the first opportunity, the steam airships did not act collectively in formations, but dispersed the bombing.
"Look, it's our flying monster!"
"There's hope now!"
"Shoot down those airships quickly!"
There was a huge cheer on the ground!
The soldiers of the Second Corps were arranged in a neat battle formation. They watched the airship fly over and drop bombs that killed the friendly troops howling like ghosts. It would be a lie to say they were not afraid. The moment they saw the flying monster appear, they all
They cheered loudly, but who knew that they would be hit hard the next moment.
There is no air force in the southern border, but even if there are few flying monsters, there will still be a few. The steam airship carrying bombs does not have much defense, so Downton arranged the Firebird, Bone Dragon, and Twin Angels on separate airships.
So that if you encounter a surprise attack, you can intercept it in time.
On board the Pioneer airship was Fiona.
The flying monsters in the southern border were not of high rank, and it was their first time to face a battleship, so they were very cautious. They did not spread their attacks and defeat them one by one. Instead, they chose to kill the same target together, which in turn prevented Downton from flying.
The shortcomings of a small number of troops.
Looking at the flying monster that fluttered its wings and rushed towards it, Fiona spread her wings and killed it like a dragon spear that pierced the sky.
puff!
In just one encounter, a magical beast was pierced through the heart and smashed into a thousand-man phalanx with a thud.
"Angel?"
"Are you kidding? Why did an angel appear?"
"My Goddess, are you going to punish us for invading the Western Territory?"
In the night sky, Fiona's white wings shone with a holy light. Against the backdrop of the stars, they looked extremely gorgeous and completely became the focus of attention.
In the propaganda of the Holy See, angels are holy and righteous, but the Southern Border Army is invading the Western Territory, so they subconsciously feel that the goddess is punishing them.
"Your evil deeds will eventually be judged!"
Fiona put on a serious expression and scolded loudly, spreading throughout the nearby battlefield as the breeze carried out psychological warfare.
Some devout believers of the goddess subconsciously kneel down to pray and ask for forgiveness.
Edith and Firebird arrived, surrounding a group of flying monsters and killing them. Three super beasts, it was a piece of cake to kill this group of magic pets, which were not even the highest level of heroes.
"Leave one for me!"
Hutao rode on the back of the bone dragon and chased after him, but as a race that uses magic to fly, the bone dragon could not compete with those birds that were born with wings and belonged to the blue sky.
"Firebird?"
"Undead dragon?"
"Two angels?"
The moment Downton's super beasts appeared on the scene, half of the battlefield was completely silenced. Panic was spreading. Death was roaring!
When the bone dragon flying in mid-air sprayed out a stream of green dragon breath, plowing directly across the ground and vaporizing all the soldiers on the attack route, the Southern Border Army's front collapsed.
The soldiers turned around and ran away, wishing they had two more legs.
The Firebird circled and began to implement the plan to burn the pine forest. The two steam airships, escorted by Fiona, continued to move forward and kept bombing the soldiers on the road, while the others scattered towards the pine forest and dropped incendiary bombs.
.
During this year, the Krupp giants, who were born to love forging, finally made an incendiary bomb after thousands of failures based on the drawings and Downton's description.
Although the firebird flies very fast, it takes a lot of time to ignite a forest belt dozens of kilometers long. This will cause some soldiers who sense something wrong to escape, but with an airship it is different.
Before the battle began, the goblins had already obtained the coordinate map for dropping bombs. Instead of carpet bombing, they only needed to drop incendiary bombs in a wide range. They could cut off the retreat route of the southern soldiers and ignite the pine forest.
"So airdrop is also an art!"
Homer was very proud because it calculated the bombing coordinates.
"It's a pity that only three-fifths of the army has been affected. It would be great if they could all be swept in!"
Downton stood on the deck of the Ancient Spear, looking at the flames on the ground. He was a little disappointed because the commotion at the forefront had not yet spread.
"Just be content. The enemy commander's headquarters is right in front. He will definitely not let this chaos spread. If the stalemate continues with him, it will delay the fighter plane. Besides, after this battle, the southern border army is completely finished.
."
Homer reminds us that if people are weak, they should be careful about being killed.
"It's okay, their morale will be greatly reduced anyway, I can chase them all the way." Downton looked at it with amusement, "I hope Quasimodo and the others don't take credit for their success. If they were burned to death, it would be a big joke.
"
Step back in time a little.
The mission of the Dark Ranger is to drive the defeated troops into the woods on both sides. When encountering resistance, defeat them as quickly as possible, otherwise the enemies will gather together.
"Send signal, retreat!"
After calculating the distance, Drizzt gave the order decisively.
"Why? These humans are like lambs waiting to be slaughtered. Why don't they harvest more lives and dedicate their souls to the Queen?"
There are drow from other families who are dissatisfied. They have been killed until their blood boils. This hearty slaughter makes them not want to withdraw from the battlefield.
"The airship will return soon. If we don't move faster, we will be drowned in the sea of fire."
If it were Beyoncé, she wouldn't bother to explain and just retreat. People from other families will die if they die, but Drizzt is not such a person and tries to persuade her with all her heart.
"You coward!"
Someone cursed in a low voice.
"Save what you said to Lord Downton. If you violate military orders, don't blame me for being rude."
Drizzt held the scimitar and glanced at these people with cold eyes. Downton asked him to be the commander because of his trust. He must bring the Dark Rangers back as much as possible.
The drow were silent, and then returned as ordered. If they had to follow Downton before because he was a servant of the gods, then after this battle, they were completely convinced. With an army of 150,000, let's
Downton would probably be thankful if he could have thirty thousand left after such a battle.
"Damn it, why are you still running forward? Give me the order to retreat!"
Compared to drow, ogres are much easier to discipline. With just one word from Thiessen, he made them obey and drag the catapult back as fast as they could.
The barbarians, the foreign orc corps, and the human corps don't have so much to worry about, because they are chasing the southern border army one after another, and the leaders are two super-level crystal beasts, which are simply unstoppable.
"This battle is so easy!"
The human soldiers couldn't believe their eyes. They were originally going to fight a fierce battle, but unexpectedly they were chasing the enemy's butts and killing them. There was no danger at all. (To be continued...)
