After watching the surroundings carefully for a while, Du Wei simply burned all the corpses on the ground with fire, then took out some magic potions and threw them into the fire. A group of green flames suddenly appeared, burning the corpses.
The wreckage was burned to the point where no dregs were left.
After removing all the footprints and traces left on the surrounding ground, Du Wei cast an invisibility spell and took Sebastian back.
At this moment on the battlefield, both sides did not have the help of magicians, and it became a pure waste of soldiers' combat power. The Royal Guards were indeed the elite of the empire, and the morale of the northwest army dropped again and again, and they could no longer resist.
The camp gate has been breached. Although the officers of the Northwest Army supervised the battle and shouted desperately, and even killed some soldiers who were afraid of fighting on the spot, they still could not inspire the fighting spirit of the soldiers. As a group of soldiers from the Royal Guards rushed forward,
After entering the camp gate, they immediately formed a circular formation and were firmly nailed there. Then the Royal Guards from behind came in one after another. The Northwest Army was unable to block the gap, and the gap was expanding rapidly.
.
Gu Huaduoluo tried his best. He even rushed to the front line in person, leading a team of his most loyal guards to try to regain the camp gate. However, although he tried his best, most of his soldiers could not hold back.
Back up.
At this time, the generals of the Royal Guards also sensed the opportunity and immediately issued the order. Thousands of soldiers from the Royal Guards shouted loudly from behind: "Surrender and avoid death! Surrender and avoid death!!!"
This voice was neat and unified, and it spread clearly throughout the battlefield. When the soldiers of the Northwest Army, who were already demoralized, heard this voice, how could they still think of fighting for their lives? Hundreds of them immediately knelt down and threw away their weapons.
Kneel there with your head in your hands.
Gu Huaduoluo felt annoyed when he saw it, but he rushed to a surrender soldier who was kneeling on the ground next to him. He shouted: "Get up, if you dare to surrender in front of the formation, behead him!!"
As he spoke, he raised his sword and chopped off the soldier's head. Then he hacked to death three or five surrendering Northwest troops around him. But at this time, no matter how hard he tried, he could not resist the momentum of surrender.
Already.
Many of the surrendered Northwest troops were so frightened that they ran away when they saw Gu Hua Duo Luo's crazy appearance. Some even picked up weapons and faced their former commander.
Seeing that the situation was over, several soldiers around Guhuataro rushed over, grabbed Guhuataro, and dragged him back.
At this time, the Royal Guards rushed towards the Northwest Army camp, and the soldiers at the front of the Northwest Army surrendered one after another. There were still some people behind who were resisting. Guhuataro was dragged all the way to the military camp by several of his own guards.
Inside, we were pulled to the camp behind. A personal guard had already brought a fine war horse over. Then several people knelt on the ground at the same time and begged: "General! Our situation is over. Please leave quickly. We still have time to leave."
There is a chance. If it is later, it will be too late!!"
Gu Huaduoluo said proudly: "Stop talking, I have been trusted by the commander, and the only way to repay him is to die. I will not leave! If you want to die, just die here!"
But several personal guards knelt on the ground and hugged his legs to prevent him from rushing forward. They dragged him desperately to get on the horse. Although Gu Hua Duoluo was grateful for the loyalty of the personal guards, he felt hardened in his heart: "
Don't say any more! It's a man, come up with me and kill more enemies!"
Several personal guards suddenly became heartbroken, swarmed forward, and snatched Guhuatara's sword away. One of them had already gone around behind him, raised the hilt of the sword and hit Guhuatara hard on the back of the head.
Go up. Guhuataro snorted, looked back at the guard, and then fainted. The guard carried Guhuataro onto the horse and tied him to the horse's back with a rope. He shouted: "I want to
Find a way to take the adults out, brothers, see you in the next life!"
After saying that, he turned over, jumped up, and ran towards the back of the camp.
At this moment, the Northwest Army has completely collapsed. The Royal Guards of the Royal City have rushed into the camp, killing the Northwest Army. There are shouts of killing everywhere. More and more Northwest Army have given up seeing that there is no hope.
Arms knelt down and surrendered.
The guards glanced at each other and shouted: "Brothers, the time has come to serve your lord!"
After saying that, several people picked up their swords, shouted, and at the same time rushed towards a large number of royal guards coming from a distance...
At this time, outside the northwest army's camp, the cavalry of the Storm Legion had already rushed over. However, the cavalry commander who led the team ran around the camp and came to the main entrance of the camp, but he was almost mad to death.
"These bastard Guards, what the hell kind of war are they fighting!!"
The Storm Legion's anger is justified.
It stands to reason that the Royal Guards are infantry. They are responsible for opening the gap in the opponent's camp, and then the cavalry of the Storm Legion, which has the strongest impact, should be allowed to rush in. As long as a large group of cavalry rushes in and penetrates once, it is enough.
The enemy army completely collapsed.
However, the general of the Royal Guards of the Royal City seemed to have made up his mind to take credit. Before the cavalry of the Storm Legion could rush in, he had already waved his hand, and his Guards infantry rushed directly into the barracks.
As a result, although the royal guards of the royal city pressed in one after another and defeated the northwest army steadily, they were blocked by people and blocked the camp door, leaving the cavalry of the Storm Legion outside to stare.
, the cavalry commander was so angry that he cursed and roared, and had people blow the horn repeatedly.
At this time, the general of the Royal Guards seemed to be deaf and ignored all this. He kept urging his men to rush in and allowed the cavalry to wander around outside. This was clearly an act of stealing credit.
, think of this guy who, in the morning, faced the defeat of Governor Bohan's army but stood still and did not send troops to support him. Now he deliberately ignores the cavalry behind him, blocks the entrance of the camp, and takes the credit for himself...
From a distance, Andre was riding on a horse and saw the situation on the battlefield clearly. He was so angry that he suddenly grabbed his helmet, smashed it on the ground hard, and cursed: "Damn Guards! Damn it.
!What kind of bullshit is this? I’m going to sue you! Sue you for violating military orders! Sue you for delaying military flights!! Sue you for ruining everything!!!”
The deputy next to him couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when he saw his commander in chief being so angry. Then he heard Andre curse: "Send someone up to tell Alian, is he an idiot? Others have blocked the camp door, you
Wouldn’t you attack from the side!!!”
The horse rushed forward. After hearing this order, the cavalry commander Arian who was leading the charge couldn't help but cursed in his heart: Attack from the side? Didn't you see a trench?
But he did not dare to disobey his general's order. Seeing that the Royal Guards had rushed into the northwest army camp like a tide, if he hesitated for a while, he might not even be able to drink the soup. He could only take it with him.
The men and horses went around to the flanks and ordered the cavalry in front to charge forward first. All the cavalry in the front row took off their helmets and threw them into the trench.
Hundreds of cavalry helmets filled up a section of the trench. Finally, someone rushed in, cut down the fence, and then rushed in. However, among the rebellious army, seventy or eighty cavalrymen in front of the Storm Legion were shot to death by bows and arrows.
Fortunately, the Northwest Army itself had already messed up its position inside, so it could not cause more damage to the Storm Legion.
The cavalry commander of the Storm Legion was so angry that this kind of trench-filling work was basically done by the infantry! How could the precious cavalry do such a thing? It was simply a waste of the cavalry's life!!
Finally, after leaving behind dozens of corpses, the cavalry of the Storm Legion also rushed into the Northwest Army's camp and plunged in from the side.
At this point, the last glimmer of hope for the Northwest Army was completely lost!
The shouts of killing continued until the sun was about to set, and finally stopped intermittently. Large numbers of Northwest Army soldiers finally put down their weapons and knelt on the ground to surrender. At this time, another thing happened on the battlefield.
... Those royal guards of the royal city actually had some red-eyed officers, and they rushed forward with their men, not even sparing the surrendered Northwest Army. They looked at the opponent kneeling on the ground, but still rushed over with swords and swords.
.Cut off the head.
Such a crazy move actually inspired the Northwest Army's final fighting spirit! Damn it! Surrendering means killing? Since surrendering also means death, why not just give it a damn fight!!
As a result, this incident caused a small-scale commotion on the battlefield. Fortunately, the cavalry of the Storm Legion charged back and forth, defeating this wave of resistance and preventing the Northwest Army from re-forming a resistance force.
But this incident caused an uproar after the war!
When the sun went down, the battle was completely over. In the northwest army camp, there were no more shouts of killing, and the surrendering soldiers, one after another, threw away their weapons, took off their armor, held their heads in their hands, and lined up to walk out of the camp.
Here, they stood in formation on the wild ground, closely supervised by the cavalry of the Storm Legion holding spears around them.
This is because the surrendering soldiers of the Northwest Army said that they did not trust the Royal Guards. The Royal Guards even killed prisoners of war. Such actions caused panic among them, so they expressed their willingness to surrender only to the Storm Legion.
In the eyes of the soldiers of the Storm Legion, the Royal Guards were just a bunch of bastards who were crazy about taking credit. After rushing into the camp, the first thing these Guards did was to occupy the Northwest Army's ordnance logistics camp.
. Then several groups of people were separated and chopped off heads everywhere.
If they hadn't caused the killing of prisoners, I'm afraid the battle would have ended an hour earlier.
After the war, these Wangcheng Guards did not even clean the battlefield. Bohan's people were responsible for cleaning the battlefield and carrying the corpses. But these soldiers of the Wangcheng Guards carried the severed heads and ignored them.
He withdrew and openly evacuated the "captured" ordnance logistics camp of the Northwest Army!
Truck after truck of ordnance supplies were all moved to the camp of the Royal Guards in the Royal City. General Andre and Governor Bohan learned the news when it was too late, and they were both furious to death.
On the battlefield, nearly 50,000 Northwest troops were killed, nearly 18,000 were killed, and the rest all surrendered.
General Andre of the Storm Legion, however, had immediately sent a message to the Guards camp in the Royal City, severely criticizing the behavior of the Guards commander. Governor Bohan was also dissatisfied. Then the two of them stayed
He gathered his troops to clean up the battlefield, count the casualties, etc., and then took the people with him and went into the city to meet Du Wei.
After all, Du Wei has the highest position and rank here, and both of them expect that only Du Wei can bring justice to them.
During this battle, Du Wei ran out to chase Sebasta. When he came back, the battle was coming to an end. Du Wei quietly imprisoned Sebasta in his own residence in the city, and then climbed up the city wall again.
Go and watch the battle. Under his command, he ordered nearly 20,000 new soldiers to go up to the city wall to watch the battle.
Watching such a brutal and fierce battle at such a close range can also allow these recruits to truly feel the cruelty and bloodshed of war, allowing them to appreciate the atmosphere of war.
Of course, Du Wei also clearly saw the behavior of the Royal Guards in grabbing credit. He also had some complaints in his heart, but it didn't show on his face.
Later, General Andre and Governor Bohan came into the city to see Du Wei. In front of Du Wei, Governor Bohan restrained himself. After all, he was a civil servant, and his words were somewhat measured, but he only expressed himself vaguely.
dissatisfaction.
Andre didn't care about this. He was a military commander and his temperament was straightforward. In front of Du Wei, he explained today's events bitterly, mixed with some vulgar curses from northerners, and finally shouted: "
...My Lord Duke, I have never seen such a fight in my life! The battle plan was discussed in advance. He completely ignored it! He only knew that his own people were rushing up to take the credit! Damn it, where did they fight like this again? Infantry
He rushed ahead and deliberately blocked the gate to prevent our cavalry from entering! I sent someone to urge him, but he deliberately ignored him! In the end, all the northwest troops surrendered, and his men even killed the prisoners! As a result, those who had surrendered were
The Northwest Army took up arms to resist again, causing many of our people to die in vain! Where did this bastard come from! I want to sue him! Sue him to death!!!"
Du Wei sighed. He comforted the two of them a few words, and then said slowly: "In this way, you two don't have to be so anxious. The Royal Guards will be led by General Alpay this time. He will surely come to the city later.
Yes, let’s talk about it when we meet.”
But the three of them waited for a long time, and the sky was completely dark. General Alpai of the Royal Guards did not even come into the city to see Du Wei!
It stands to reason that Du Wei is the highest-ranking figure in this war, and he is also the landlord here. After all, the battle is over, and the general of his Royal Guards will always come to the city to see Du Wei. But in the end, three people
When it got dark, a letter came from Wang Cheng's Guards.
This was an official document. Du Wei opened it and read it, his face darkened.
There was no politeness at all in this official document, but it only used a business-like tone to report the "results" of the battle to Du Wei, the highest officer.
"Your Excellency Duke Tulip, the results of this battle are as follows. Our headquarters lost 3,622 soldiers and injured 1,400. We killed 16,400 enemy heads and took no prisoners. We captured enemy supplies.
, more than 7,000 sets of standard swords, more than 4,000 armors and shields, and no provisions..."
When Du Wei saw this, Andre, who was standing next to him and reading the official document, yelled: "This bastard! More than 16,000 beheadings? Damn it!! At least half of this number
The enemies were killed by my men! My men told me that these Guardsmen were extremely despicable. On the battlefield, I saw many of these guys deliberately picking up and chopping up the bodies of the enemies killed by our cavalry.
He killed his head! You knew they were using it to claim credit!! Haha! His people were able to kill more than 16,000 Northwest troops! It was a joke!! There were also captured enemy supplies! Those things were captured by him
Really! It was only after their battle ended that before our people could react, they emptied the military vehicles in the Northwestern Army’s camp first!!”
Du Wei's face also looked a little ugly, and the last few sentences of this official document completely made Du Wei angry!
"...The number of casualties in our headquarters has been reported. Please report the compensation to Grand Duke Tulip. In addition, please replenish the half-month share of grain and grass in the headquarters camp on the spot."
Are you still asking me for food?
Du Wei snorted and sneered twice, then put the letter on the table.
He didn't get angry, he just took a deep breath, called his own soldiers, and said calmly: "Send someone to go out of the city immediately and go to the Royal Guards Camp to see General Alpay and tell me
'Invite' him to come to the city to discuss things."
When Du Wei said the word "please", he deliberately emphasized his tone and showed a gloomy smile. Governor Bohan, who had interacted with Du Wei more in the northwest, saw this smile on Du Wei's face, and he
You know, this Tulip Duke is really popular.
Du Wei turned around and sat on the chair. His face seemed calm, but he was thinking to himself... How can this General Alpai be so sacred?
