Demon Royal Family
Chapter 242 God’s help
After being tricked once, the Barians seemed to have put away their little thoughts and focused on attacking the defense.
The two sides fought each other, and the enemy was never able to take down the defense line.
For more than ten days in a row, every day was a high-intensity battle. Both the territorial guards and the Barians had deep fatigue on their faces.
Finally Kane seemed to give up, leading his army dozens of miles away from the defense line and no longer attacking.
The soldiers in the territory breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that they could finally rest.
"We held our territory!"
"The defense line built by the Lord Lord cannot even be broken by the Barians!"
"I never thought that one day I would be willing to fight for my territory."
With Kane's retreat, the territory's morale is high.
A trust eagle conveyed information about the Spear Legion, which was only three days away from the defense line. This was presumably the reason why Kane withdrew his troops.
"Our support has finally arrived." Severn III said in a relaxed tone, "The Western Territory is out of danger. With the help of the Spear Legion, we can find more fighters."
A new round of military meetings was held in the lord's longhouse. The senior officials present were very optimistic. Lucian said: "Of the four major legions of the kingdom, only Ziyuhua and Thorn Spear maintain most of their combat effectiveness. Your Majesty, We need more people.”
"The kingdom also has a western border, and we can recruit many soldiers to replenish the army's establishment."
"We have survived the darkest period and are finally on our feet."
The senior executives were talking about the future prospects, but Ivo frowned and sat silently in his seat, thinking about other things.
After experiencing so many wars, Ivo had a keen intuition about the direction of the war, and he instinctively felt that there was something strange about Kane's retreat.
After a brief battle, Ivo had a general understanding of Kane. The old Duke had a sophisticated fighting style and always had backup plans.
Everyone present soon realized that Ivo had not spoken and looked at him one after another. They had already been impressed by Ivo's ability. They attached great importance to Ivo's opinion. They noticed Ivo's heavy expression at the first time and thought in their hearts. One jump.
Lucian asked: "Lord Ivo, what do you think?"
Ivo knocked on the table and said slowly: "Kane's tactical style is like a hungry tiger. He will not easily give up the opportunity to hunt. He will seize all seemingly inconspicuous combat skills and squeeze out rich results. , so I think he didn’t give up, maybe he just changed his goal.”
Everyone looked at each other and asked in confusion: "Other targets?"
Ivo thought of something, his face changed slightly, he quickly relaxed, and said with a smile: "There is an 80% chance that we will gather around to call for reinforcements."
Lucian chewed on these four words and his eyes lit up: "It's a very appropriate description."
"It seems we are indeed going to attack." Ivo smiled and quickly made a plan.
Lucian looked at Ivo with admiration and said, "You seem to be able to see into people's hearts. The enemy's commander's thoughts cannot be hidden in your eyes."
"This is because I stand on the shoulders of giants." Ivo recalled with an expression. The Thirty-Six Strategies and Sun Tzu's Art of War in his previous life had already analyzed most of the tactics. Only Ivo can do it in this world. It is his advantage to guess the enemy's movements based on the ground.
…
The Spear Legion galloped in the wilderness. After more than half a month of trekking, they finally approached the Western Border.
After the news of Ivo Jean Kane's defeat reached him, Andrew felt relieved, slowed down the pace of support, and allowed time for the soldiers to rest so as not to become exhausted.
The sun was shining brightly in the sky, and the Spear Legion passed through an undulating hillside.
Andrew suddenly became restless, reined in his horse and ordered the entire army to stop.
He looked around hesitantly. The hillside was wavy, and they were just at the "bottom of the wave." The surrounding mounds were bulging, blocking the view, which made people a little uneasy.
Andrew had the illusion of being surrounded. He suddenly remembered something and asked: "Where are the scouts exploring the road?"
"They haven't sent back the news yet," the adjutant said.
The uneasiness in Andrew's heart became more and more intense, and he was about to give the order to retreat. Suddenly, the surrounding hills erupted with a tsunami-like cry of killing. Countless Barian soldiers appeared and rushed towards the spear trapped at the bottom of the hillside. The legions are enemies on all sides, boundless, like a wave that covers the sky and the sun!
The Spear Legion fell into chaos in an instant, and the team was cut off! The commander-in-chief cannot continue to command the rear troops!
Andrew's face changed drastically, and he screamed: "The enemy is attacking! Form a ring formation on the left and right wings to resist the impact!"
The soldiers of the Spear Legion hurriedly arranged their formations. The circular defensive formation had just been formed when the Barian cavalry rushed forward, leaping on their horses, and their lances easily penetrated the defensive formation of the heavy shield infantry.
In a hurry, the Spear Legion suddenly showed a tendency to collapse.
Andrew was so worried that he hurriedly grabbed an officer beside him and shouted: "Lead a small group of rangers to break out of the encirclement and ask Ivo for help!"
This officer was Caesar. His face was solemn. He knew that the task assigned to him by Andrew was a narrow escape, but he nodded firmly. Caesar was willing to take huge risks in order to assassinate the Spear Legion.
"Ranger Squadron 1, follow me!"
Caesar shouted loudly, and the warhorse stood up, hissing loudly, and then the horse's hooves hit the ground heavily, galloping at full speed, leading hundreds of rangers behind him, turning into a sharp cone, and fiercely rushed into the mountains and plains. In the enemy camp.
Attacks from all directions quickly wounded Caesar. There were enemies in front of him, and there was no end in sight. Caesar held his breath and charged, regardless of consumption, turning all the holy light into armor to protect the war horse.
The rangers he led were constantly being hacked off, and their numbers were getting smaller and smaller. This breakout team continued to penetrate deep into the enemy's formation, with a fierce momentum!
Andrew's eyes were always following Caesar's team. He spat out a mouthful of bloody phlegm and slashed a cavalryman in front of him with his big sword, with a look of death on his face.
At the moment of the ambush, Andrew knew that the Spear Legion was basically finished, but even if he died in battle, he would not let the damn invaders win completely. Andrew actually did not hold out the hope of inviting support because the distance was too far. .
Andrew's real idea is to use the power of the entire legion to hold back the enemy regardless of losses, until Ivo receives the news and comes to harvest the mess, beat the Barians hard and reduce losses.
By then, it is very likely that he would have died in the battle.
But forget it, since the day the war broke out, he had the consciousness of sacrifice.
Even if you die, you must die well!
"For Lasseth——"
Andrew roared, wildly bursting out with all his strength, and charging across the chaotic battlefield.
…
With the banner of the Barrian army fluttering on the hill, Kane looked at the melee below indifferently. The spear army was divided into countless small parts, completely in disarray, and it was only a matter of time before they were completely wiped out.
The adjutant next to him had a look of joy on his face, "The Lassese people will eventually understand that you are the master of the battlefield. It's ridiculous for those Lassese people to have blind confidence because a little lord accidentally took advantage of us. This This time will surely destroy the poor and weak hope of the Lassese people!"
Kane was noncommittal and suddenly looked to the side of the battlefield. Caesar's breakout team, with only a dozen people left, had rushed to the end of the formation and was about to break out.
"Send a cavalry squad to hunt down those people." Kane pointed at Caesar in the distance. He didn't want to let go of any of the Laces soldiers who escaped to deliver the message. Since it was a "return gift" to Ivo, of course it needed to be kept secret. , only then will there be a surprise.
When he thought of Ivo finding out that the spear corps supporting the Western Territory had been completely wiped out, Kane looked forward to the expression on Ivo's face. Was it disbelief? Or panic? Or both?
…
Caesar didn't know how many attacks he had endured and how long he had been charging. The pressure beside him suddenly lightened up. Caesar raised his head in surprise, and the enemies were left behind.
"We succeeded!" Caesar was excited. Only eleven rangers were left alive behind him, and everyone was injured.
A small Barian cavalry squad of hundreds of people came after them. Caesar hurriedly urged his horses to gallop towards the defense line at full speed.
After nearly half an hour of pursuit, Caesar was already far away from the battlefield. The enemy's cavalry followed far behind and never gave up.
"We must catch up!" Caesar pursed his lips tightly, wishing that the horse could run faster, even a little bit.
The pursuers behind him were equipped with bows and arrows, and arrows shot through the wind. Caesar controlled the horse to snake forward, dodging long-range attacks. The speed gradually slowed down, and the distance between the two sides gradually narrowed.
Caesar's face was anxious. The horse finally climbed up a hillside, and his vision suddenly became clearer.
Suddenly, Caesar froze.
There are soldiers everywhere in front of you, covering the mountains and plains!
All of them are wearing Lasith's armor!
The leader is none other than Ivo, who is wearing the lord's cloak!
Ivo, who had an insight into Kane's intention, led the soldiers in the defense line to set off early. When the Spear Legion was ambushed, they were only a short distance away from the battlefield!
Caesar's eyes were filled with dust, and he suddenly had the urge to cry.
It turns out that surviving from desperate situations can be so touching!
It turns out that having reliable allies can make people feel so at ease!
Divine soldiers descend from heaven!
