Nine hundred and fiftieth chapters decisive victory
"Why are we concentrating our troops? Another air raid and bombing? Please remember that it was him who blocked the front and rear roads this time. I think he did not leave because he was trying to reassure the trapped soldiers."
This statement made most of the officers nod. Within two days, our own army had established a preliminary defense system to surround them. This enemy army could hardly fly even with its wings.
Once Downton left, these desperate soldiers would most likely surrender, so it was better to lead them to fight against the enemy. In the end, he could still leave on a battleship.
"If it were me, I would definitely change my son, not abandon him!"
"Downton didn't leave, maybe because he was seriously injured. The intelligence said that he suffered a backlash when he rushed up the stairs. According to the deserter's account, they saw a huge impact in the castle two days ago, and the magic that accompanied the team
The division has indeed felt the violent elemental fluctuations!"
"Whether we can kill Downton or not, this is a good opportunity to annihilate an enemy army. We urgently need a victory to boost morale now."
The main war faction made up the majority, and they looked towards the supreme commander.
The commander raised his head and looked at the top of the big tent, listening to the sound of autumn rain hitting it, his expression solemn.
At noon, the Frankfurt Army launched another tentative breakout attack. The soldiers who had just picked up their jobs had to put down their jobs and quickly ran to the defense area to operate the catapult.
A moment later, wooden bullets made of wooden stakes were ignited and hit the group of cavalry rushing down the mountainside.
"Commander, Downton is personally leading the team to charge into battle!"
After seeing Downton's handsome flag, the scouts came to report immediately.
"Let's go and have a look!"
The commander was startled and stood up immediately, followed by other generals.
"Is that Downton?"
Using a monocular, the commander saw the young man riding the Fiery Nightmare who was rushing to the front. He was so young. When he saw him, he could not help but feel that the years are really fleeting.
The generals were silent. Is it this man who beat the country black and blue?
"Except for that team of red-skinned guards, they are all from Samosai!"
Some officers were angry, but this was reasonable. If they were to search for weak areas in the defense line for a probing attack, they would naturally send out surrender troops to die.
Soon, under the suppression of the projectile vehicles and rain of arrows, these surrendered soldiers who had lost their fighting spirit began to run back. The scoldings of the guards were completely useless. Downton had no choice but to wear an annoyed expression.
return.
"I'm afraid he will kill a lot of people if he goes back this time."
Some soft-hearted officers lamented.
"What do you care about them? Surrendering to the enemy and treason is a capital crime!"
Ignoring the clamor of his subordinates, the commander looked at his personal magic consultant and asked, "How?"
"Downton was indeed seriously injured. I felt that his soul was very weak and his vitality seemed to have been drained out."
The consultant wearing a mage's robe specializes in soul magic, so he hit the nail on the head.
"Give the order. Continue to garrison and notify all the major corps. You must get here within three days, otherwise you will be dealt with according to military law. In addition, notify the country and send out all the scepter ranks. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If you board the ship at Downton
Kill him. Those airships are ours!"
The commander-in-chief gave up the plan of attacking immediately and decided to continue to gather troops so that the outcome could be decided in one battle.
"How about it?"
As soon as Downton returned, Drizzt came up and took the reins of the horse.
"If I show up, I should be able to delay the enemy's offensive. Please inform me, except for the security forces, everyone else should take time to rest."
Downton was deceiving the enemy because he never thought about breaking out. He did not tell the Red Scarf Army, so these guys thought they were being used as cannon fodder, so the expressions on their faces were panic and fear, full of deception.
In the past few days, Downton took the time to recover from his injuries. During this period, he continued to send troops to harass. By the end of the fight, the opponent had changed from focusing on dealing with it to becoming lazy.
"Brace yourself, this is a feint attack. When you become careless, the real attack will come."
The officers patrolled the camp and kept warning. Facing Downton who had achieved such a brilliant record, no one dared to underestimate him.
"Duke, the number of enemy troops gathered at the foot of the mountain has exceeded 150,000, and there are also 100,000 behind the castle. If you have any plan, implement it quickly, otherwise when the comparison of forces reaches an extreme, any tactics will pale in comparison.
Powerless!"
Parr strongly recommended, with a very ugly look on his face. He thought that Downton saw that there was no hope of escape and was preparing to change his son.
"You're so presumptuous, it's not your turn to teach me what my master does!"
Jackson has an airship to ride on, so there is no need to worry, otherwise Downton would have been crying to break out.
"Drizzt!"
Downton asked.
"The General Staff has made an assessment. After the air raid, there are nearly 200,000 enemy troops stranded on the border. Excluding those who are missing and those who escaped, the number should be around 170,000!"
Drizzt opened a folder and handed over the data.
"Well, it doesn't make much sense to wait any longer." Downton took out his pocket watch and took a look, "Inform the entire army to bury the pot and make rice. At one o'clock in the afternoon, the entire army will assemble and start the general attack!"
Parr didn't care about Downton's wording. In his opinion, this young man was arrogant and didn't want to say such disappointing words as breakout.
The autumn rain is bleak, hurtful and sad.
In the square in front of the castle gate, the soldiers stood with solemn expressions. The whole place was silent. Even the birds and insects felt the oppression, and there were many of them from far away.
Even the hilly natives, who had always been heartless, looked solemn at this time, not to mention the Red Scarf Army. The total number of our own troops was only thirty thousand, and Elsingburg had been overthrown by more than thirty thousand.
Surrounded by tens of thousands of troops, if you break out downwards, there are too many enemy troops. If you break out upwards, even if you escape, you will enter the Satsumasai realm, and the final outcome will definitely be annihilation.
This place has become a place of death, and they are a group of dying people.
"The Duke has arrived, everyone stands at attention!"
The military discipline commander standing at the front roared, and all the soldiers reflexively put their feet together and raised their hands in salute. The sound of military boots hitting the floor resounded through the sky.
Downton returned the favor and rode Nightmare, stopping right in front of the legion.
"My warriors, after today's battle, you will personally destroy the Kingdom of Samosai and make it disappear from the territory of the Western Continent!"
Buzz!
There were slight exclamations in the square. This was because Downton's prestige was strong enough. If it were another commander, these soldiers would have exploded long ago.
This is simply a joke. It seems that the ones who want to be destroyed are our own legions!
"I know you don't believe it, and it doesn't matter. In half an hour, you will see the results of the battle!" Downton turned his head and told the Krupp guards, "Send the signal and the general attack will begin!"
When the magic fireworks bloomed in the sky, Downton walked outside the castle and looked down at the densely packed camp with large tents for tens of miles below.
There's a lot of people shouting and smoke curling up!
Soon, the supreme commander appeared outside the camp with his officers. Behind them was a guard regiment composed of magicians.
"Damn, they're about to break out!"
The deputy commander's face was so gloomy that he could almost drip with ink. Until now, not all the scepter-level experts were in place. If they sent out just two of them, they would be destined to die.
The supreme commander was helpless. How long had it been before the families were still united and calculating their gains and losses? But think about it, the Scepter Order is the extreme force of a family. If something happens, the family will be destroyed.
"The battle will begin later. The Seventh and Eighth Corps will do their best to hold Downton back. We must not let him have the chance to board the battleship!"
The supreme commander decided to use the human wave tactic to kill Downton.
The entire camp was full of soldiers running to gather, just like ants, because they were worried about bombing. Therefore, the distance between the tents was relatively scattered, so it took some time to gather together.
"Commander, something is not right. Why hasn't he launched an attack yet? Once we have assembled and the defense line is solid, it will be even harder for him to break through."
An experienced officer saw something was wrong.
"Is this guy trying to trick us?"
Some officers thought about Downton's actions in the past few days and felt that this answer was more reliable. That guy was deliberately sacrificing the soldiers' physical strength. After all, he had fewer people and it was easier to disband and assemble.
The commander frowned and looked through the binoculars. He found that the officers on the opposite side originally had expressions of determination, but as they hesitated to move, their morale dropped and confusion appeared on their faces.
"What on earth does this guy want to do? Could it be that he is looking at the scenery?"
The supreme commander couldn't understand.
Time passed by, and just when everyone was getting impatient, someone suddenly spoke.
"Listen, there seems to be some sound?"
As a magician officer with good hearing spoke, the others also turned their heads and listened attentively.
"There is indeed a sound. It comes from above. It seems like thousands of war horses galloping?"
"Are you kidding? The terrain here is not suitable for cavalry charges at all?"
"Then what do you think this sound is?"
The officers argued, because of the unknown, everyone's attitude was too bad, and their tone became more and more serious.
"I...I know what it is?"
When an officer spoke, the others immediately looked over and found that his face was pale and his lips were trembling, as if he was about to experience the end of the world.
"What's wrong? Are you talking?"
The deputy commander was so angry when he saw what he was doing.
"Mountain...Mountain..."
The officer's voice trembled and he couldn't speak.
"Mountain what?"
When someone questioned him, the deputy commander simply rushed over and slapped him several times with a wave of his hand, causing the corners of his mouth to crack and bleed.
"Flash flood!"
The officer lost his temper and finally yelled. This sound made the surrounding area feel as if it had suddenly dropped to freezing point, and everyone was dumbfounded.
"What did you say?" someone was still asking, "How can there be any flash floods at this time?"
"Why are you still dazed? Let the soldiers move to the nearby high ground quickly!"
An officer who reacted quickly looked towards the camp and ran away without waiting for the commander's order to command his subordinates to take shelter.
Boom! Boom!
The sound coming from the mountain became louder and louder. The soldiers stopped and looked at Elsingburg following the sound. They saw a huge flood peak rushing down from the waterfall on the right side of it. Because it was too big, it was not only
It flooded the forests on both sides, and some even rushed down from the other side of the castle.
The next moment, the soldiers turned around and ran away. Such a horrific natural disaster cannot be resisted by humans. (To be continued...)
