If I let you farm, will you become the emperor of the empire?
Chapter 234 Either you die or I die
They were afraid that they would not be able to pick up any spoils.
This was totally like picking up money!
A good-looking dagger could be exchanged for a sheep, and a sharp and heavy axe could be exchanged for half a cow...
Those who did not pick up any spoils ran very fast.
Those who did pick up any spoils ran even faster.
They did not care about the increasingly steep terrain, nor did they notice that their bodies were getting more and more tired.
Running all the way here would consume a lot of physical strength.
Most people's hearts were overwhelmed by joy.
…
"Shoot!"
Until a cold voice came, followed by a sharp whistle, and then the whistles sounded one after another.
Many figures appeared on both sides of the hillside at the same time.
The originally chaotic defeated army regrouped under the leadership of their respective squad leaders.
In less than two minutes, the formation was restored.
And they took the longbows prepared in advance.
The infantry brigade turned into longbowmen, and put arrows on the strings.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh...
Ten thousand arrows were fired at once!
…
The Broken Archers and the Judgment Knights looked down on the spoils, so they fell to the end.
Kate was sure that the rebellion was over, so she was in a relaxed mood.
What? You fell before I even tried.
However, the cruel reality told Kate that the war had just begun.
What was even more cruel was that their army had plunged into an ambush at the beginning of the war.
"Retreat!"
He didn't need to shout.
Now everyone knew to retreat.
But there were too many people.
That round of volleys caused a huge collective panic.
It was dense and crowded.
For professional armies, it takes a certain amount of time to move from the front army to the rear army.
But the more chaotic it was, the less order it had.
A brigade of Roman's infantry rushed out from the side, and the leader was tall and strong, holding a steel axe, and killed two standing mercenaries with one axe.
"All get down! Put down your weapons! Those who surrender will not be killed! Those who stand will die!"
The voice exploded like a lion's roar.
...
The tactics discussed by Roman and his military regiment were very simple.
Pretend to lose and lure the enemy deep into the enemy.
The result was unexpectedly successful.
Not to mention the huge army of believers, even if the mercenaries and free riders rushed out, they didn't care about the formation at all.
People who often fight wars know that once the army loses control, the original 60% combat effectiveness will plummet to 80%, becoming a negative number, and completely losing the ability to fight back.
The believers can charge forward under the call of the choir.
Even if they know that they will die, they dare to die in such an atmosphere.
But now the nuns are scattered everywhere, everyone is shouting, the scene is noisy and chaotic, how can they continue to sing.
The mercenaries have strong combat effectiveness, but they are also falling apart at this moment.
The crossbowmen can't gather, let alone where the enemy is.
Just like Bishop Melard couldn't control the vanguard army, Marshal Grana shouted his throat out, but it was useless, and he could only lead the guards to flee.
The elite troops such as the Judgment Knights and Broken Archers in the rear saw this scene and knew that the army was finished.
Kate's lungs were about to explode.
Suddenly, his skin felt a slight sting.
He stared at it suddenly, and his red pupils shrank suddenly.
In less than a second, Kate raised the broken longbow and stretched his arms to full strength.
Whoosh!
A special sharp arrow was released from the string.
It collided with the oncoming magic steel arrow as wide as a razor.
Clang!
When the metal and iron collided, ordinary people could only see amazing sparks in the air!
The impact of the two arrows offset each other and then fell to the ground.
Kate's face was frighteningly ugly.
His eyesight was highly focused, and he could see far away like an eagle, and he saw a figure standing on the hillside more than 200 meters away.
The man was holding a blood-red bow, looking at him, and then made a small movement.
The action was not very noticeable, but Kate saw it.
For some reason, he had a picture of Roman holding the Split Armor Greatbow in his mind—looking down from above, with contempt in his eyes, and a disdainful and arrogant snort coming out of his nose…
‘Hmph~~’
It seemed to really ring in his ears.
Kate’s face was frighteningly cold.
He had no expression at all, and pursed his lips tightly.
People who were familiar with his temperament knew that he was so angry that he couldn’t speak.
The Broken Archers also discovered Roman, and they reacted very quickly. More than 20 arrows were shot like a swarm of bees.
But the arrows had to fly for a while.
The Broken Archers’ shooting speed was between 100 and 150 meters per second, and it took two seconds to fly.
Roman had disappeared without a trace.
…
The first round ended, and the Anti-Rebellion Army was defeated.
More than a thousand people died on the spot.
A total of more than 4,000 people were captured.
Roman's losses were negligible.
However, because of the broken archers and the Knights of Judgment, and because the troops were dispersed during the siege, Roman did not dare to completely surround the enemy, leaving a relatively large gap, allowing half of the rebel army to escape.
Two days later,
Kate gathered the remnants.
He looked at the scattered army of only more than 3,000 people and remained silent for a long time.
Behind him were Bishop Maillard, Marshal Grana, Knight of Judgment Donna, Knight of Blood Salt Front, and Sister Mapel.
Everyone was silent.
They found it difficult to accept the current situation.
This battle cannot be said to be a complete annihilation, but at least more than half of the army was lost.
Fortunately, the most elite force was intact and did not suffer too much loss. Only a few hundred sworn riders and free riders were lost, and most of the mercenaries in the mud swamp were also lost.
Front's face turned bitter. He was just here to restrain the troops and did not rush forward, so the system was still intact.
Now that all the ministries are severely damaged, his army has become the main force.
"Let's withdraw our troops," Front said.
He didn't have a strong desire to fight at the beginning, but now he knew that the young lord was not only brave but also had a better strategy than them, so he decided to quit.
"Sir Front, we have no way to retreat!" Kate said coldly.
The bishop and the trial knight also acquiesced to this statement.
The Pope ordered them to test the war potential of the Believer's Army and ask them to hand over an answer.
As a result, they only submitted one defense.
This loss is too heavy. If we really have to retreat, we will have no hope for the rest of our lives. Being exiled is considered normal.
Don't expect to be reused in this life, you might as well die heroically.
"What Lady Kate said makes sense." Sister Mapel said,
"Our believers fell into the hands of Lord Roman, and we have to rescue them. This is how Count Kant's people were captured by him. May the gods protect them from suffering. I really don't know what they are like now. Alas..." she said worriedly.
It's not ours, it's yours.
Front thought.
He didn't argue with them, he could only obey.
In the last time the nobles joined forces, Bechtes let others be used as cannon fodder, but when things got tough, he had to play the role of cannon fodder.
In front of Leap Armor and the Holy See, Bechtes did not have enough confidence to refuse to participate in the war.
Although the number of troops has been greatly reduced, the rebel army still has fighting strength.
It was once a treasured sword hidden in a sheath, but now it is half unsheathed and its edge is beginning to show.
However, this is not a good thing for everyone.
Because there is no scabbard protection, no cannon fodder to fill the line, a gap in the blade will make them feel distressed half to death.
But they know in their hearts that this is the kind of war that is coming.
They have no chance of winning!
You have to quell the rebellion even if you fight to break out the gap!
At this time, Roman had also dealt with the prisoners.
The decisive battle begins.
Either you die or I die!
