LOL: I am a bad prince in Demacia

There is still a little time left before morning.

The army led by Nashat finally passed through the slot canyon, got rid of the sound of rushing water, and the team slowly landed.

"There is only a little distance left to the destination."

Nashat asked the team to stay where they were, rest for twenty minutes, and eat some food to replenish their strength.

After running around so fast all night long, even an iron man needs a rest.

He must keep all the soldiers in good condition to face the next battle without making any mistakes.

"How long has it been since we set off?"

Nashat asked the adjutant next to him.

The adjutant replied: "Seven hours."

"good."

Nashat was quite excited and said to himself: "It's shorter than we expected. Let's send a few scouts to the front to investigate and ask them to be careful."

The adjutant took the order: "Yes."

Soon, there were scouts in the team who took the lead in setting off.

Twenty minutes passed quickly.

Feeling that his physical strength was gradually recovering, Nashat stood up and became more confident in the upcoming battle. He waved his hand: "Let's go!"

The army moved forward at a faster pace, and soon encountered the scouts who were returning along the same route.

The scout reported: "Sir, no trace of the German army has been found ahead."

Hearing this, Nashat thought for a moment.

No trace of the German army found?

According to the location of their location and the speed of their march, they should be in this area at this time.

Because this is the only way to go, and there is a big mountain in the middle, unless they choose to go around the other end.

However, the other route is further and completely meaningless.

After thinking for a moment, Nashat ordered: "Keep going!"

He believed in Demir's judgment and his own judgment that the German army must be in this area.

It could only be that they slowed down their march.

Continuing to march is nothing more than a face-to-face confrontation between the two sides. Although this will reduce the effect of the surprise attack, it is still useful.

Even in terms of numbers, his 90,000-strong army has top-notch combat effectiveness.

As for whether their plan might have been exposed, this was completely beyond Nashat's consideration.

Because in his opinion, this is completely impossible.

There is no communication magic in Runeterra, at least to Neshat's knowledge, and no such method has appeared in the hundreds of years of Noxus' historical records.

He didn't believe that Demacia, a country that had just lifted the ban on magic, could have it.

You know, information can be said to occupy an extremely important position in a battle.

In a battle where there is an information gap, that is an overwhelming advantage.

For example, Demacia, this extremely fast march, and those black powders.

In the eyes of Noxus, this is all unknown.

Because of this, in less than a month, Demacia successively attacked several cities, captured more than 100,000 people, and sacrificed countless others.

But this time, Demir's decision was also based on information gaps.

When Demacia thought that the main force of Noxus was still defending Bruan City, they had already attacked another army as quickly as possible.

The reason why Demir dared to make such a decision was precisely because he was sure that even if the Imperial Army reacted, it would not be able to convey the news to the other army in time.

Even if those flying monsters that ignore geographical barriers come, it won't work.

And this is already the fastest communication method in Runeterra.

"We have the advantage in a frontal charge. Charge!"

Nashat firmly believed that no matter how he looked at it, the advantage in this wave was on his side.

There are not so many surprises in a war.

As the army marched forward, as the sun slowly rose in the east, the first rays of sunlight fell, signaling a formal farewell to the night.

In the early morning, in this rugged mountainous area, there was an extra touch of fog, but it did not block the view.

Nashat calculated the distance in his mind. From crossing the slot canyon, the team had advanced almost five or six kilometers.

The distance with another German army is getting closer.

He raised his hand to signal the troops behind him to slow down and move forward slowly. At the same time, he gave the scouts a look, signaling them to continue exploring the path forward.

The scout quickly took the order and left.

At this moment, they were in a low-lying place, and it was quiet in the mountains. For some reason, Nashat had a bad premonition in his heart.

It was impossible for the enemy to set up an ambush here, and he quickly gave up the idea.

All in all, why would the German army set up an ambush here? There is no reason at all.

However, the moment he put down this idea, a loud shout suddenly sounded from high up.

"fire!"

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Deafening blasts of cannons were heard, and Nashat looked up, his pupils suddenly shrinking, his face full of disbelief.

In his eyes, cannonballs as big as his head rained down from above.

"Enemy attack! Disperse!"

He instinctively yelled back and was the first to move.

The 90,000-strong army was suddenly in chaos, but at this time the artillery shells had fallen and smashed into the ranks.

"Boom! Boom! Boom"

Continuous explosions, accompanied by raging flames, resounded throughout the mountainous area at this moment.

All this happened so suddenly that everyone was unprepared. Just this first round of offensive killed an unknown number of Noxian soldiers.

Some people saw with their own eyes that their companions were swallowed up by the fire, and then the remaining limbs of their bodies were blown out.

A person can disintegrate in an instant. In just the first round of bombing, severed limbs, blood, and internal organs were everywhere. This scene is enough to leave a psychological shadow on people.

Before he could recover, "Bang! Bang! Bang!", the second round of rain-like shells had already fallen.

This was an overwhelming force, and they all fell into the shooting range of these artillery shells. Even if 90,000 people dispersed at the first time, such a large number of people still greatly increased the hit rate of the artillery shells.

Neshat only felt his heart pounding, and the loud noise of exploding artillery shells rang in his eardrums. He saw the German army occupying the high ground and the forts that had been deployed.

How can it be?

Why would they set up an ambush here?

"Charge! Avoid these gunpowders and fight in close combat!"

Multiple thoughts flashed through my mind, but there was no time to think about each one.

Nashat, tasked with saving the battle, raised his weapon and barked orders.

If these incredibly powerful gunpowders continue to maintain this distance, no matter how many of them there are, they will all be blown up.

He understood immediately that the only way to stand a chance against this German army was to charge and rush to higher ground.

Under his command, the Noxian charge began. When lives were at stake, the power that everyone could unleash was unpredictable.

Each black-armored soldier rushed upward desperately, and his companions around him were blown down one after another, even leaving no bones left.

Even though they were shaken, they still stepped forward without hesitation.

At the high point, every white-armored soldier watched all this with a blank expression.

"shoot!"

Following Lev's order.

This time more than just cannonballs were fired.

Nashat, who was rushing at the front, saw the rapid fire flashing continuously, and accompanied by a "chug" sound, countless bullets were fired at them.

Not arrows, but bullets!

Dense raindrops formed in mid-air.

"gun?!"

Nashat's eyes widened with horror.

Demacia not only has artillery, but also guns?

He had seen the gun, which was also a weapon being developed by Noxus. Some warlords had found the source from other places and kept it around.

However, the guns used by Demacia were different from what he had remembered, and there were many of them.

Such a sophisticated weapon, almost everyone has one.

The rate of fire of those bullets was very fast, but as a deputy general, Nashat naturally had certain strength.

He instinctively dodged left and right. When he couldn't avoid it, he raised his weapon to block.

It turned out that he was forced to keep moving forward in the hail of bullets.

But staring closely at those Demacia soldiers, he imagined a scene of fighting with them for a while, and he wanted to create a gap for his soldiers.

Only in this way can they have a winning chance.

Just as these thoughts came to mind, a bullet hit the armor on Nashat's chest, and the powerful impact made him take a few steps back.

The hard armor blocked the bullets, and the hail of bullets seemed to stop briefly at this moment.

Nashat couldn't help but look back. He was thinking that perhaps ten thousand or five thousand people had rushed here with him at this moment.

However, the moment he looked back, Nashat was stunned.

There were only a few hundred people, not even a thousand. They held shields and trudged forward. There were soldiers behind them who kept trying to fill up the queue, but to no avail.

The shield can block these bullets, but it cannot withstand the bombardment of artillery shells.

When a cannonball falls in the shield trooper team, it means that the entire queue will be blown apart.

The current Noxian army was full of gaps under this indiscriminate bombardment.

At this time, a sense of sadness and powerlessness could not help but emerge in Nashat's heart.

At this moment, he saw what a war with huge disparity in firepower was like.

Ninety thousand people, a total of ninety thousand people, who were bombarded at this moment were like a defeated army.

And up to now, not even one member of the German army has been lost.

The Noxian army, which terrified the entire Runeterra, was now like a toy in front of Demacia's army.

Continuing to charge will only cost more lives.

When Nashat realized this, he had already shouted: "Retreat! Send a message to the general. Demacia has the means to send messages very quickly! We have lost this battle!"

The soldiers who received the order immediately turned around and withdrew.

Some people saw that Nashat chose to continue charging and fought towards the heights tenaciously.

Being shot several times in the body was no longer painful for Nashat at this moment.

He raised his battle ax and charged forward.

When things got to this point, he no longer had the face to go back to see General Demir.

From being determined and confident before setting off, to now he was running away without even being able to fight the enemy.

Nashat felt extremely sad. He knew that Demacia, who came this time, had made preparations far beyond their expectations.

General Demir had miscalculated, and so had he.

There is only one possibility for them to set up an ambush here, and that is that the German army already knows the news of their surprise attack.

This also proves that Demacia has mastered a method of extremely fast communication.

This point is extremely important.

If this information is not conveyed, Noxus will suffer from this in the future.

At this moment, Lev looked at the escaping Noxian army and directly ordered: "Chase! Kill every one you can!"

Because of his order, the hail of bullets stopped, and the Demacia cavalry rode out.

They quickly passed through Nashat and pursued the fleeing army.

Nashat raised his battle ax and slashed at the nearby cavalryman.

But the next second, a figure stood in front of him, a standard Demacia steel knife, blocking Nashat's blow.

Lev looked at the general in front of him expressionlessly, and suddenly exerted force on his wrist, flicking his battle ax away, then mercilessly stabbed Nashat's armor with his knife, and then pulled it out.

Blood spilled all over the floor, and in the last few seconds before death, Nashat fell down with extreme reluctance.

The battle lasted less than half an hour.

The cavalry quickly turned back, and there were still some deserters left who fled quickly and could not catch up.

However, the result of this battle already satisfied Lev.

No one was killed on his side, but tens of thousands of Noxians died in exchange.

This has rarely happened in history.

You must know that this is a strong Noxian army. Even so, it is so fragile in the face of gunpowder weapons.

After a crushing ambush battle, it was a bit satisfying to say the least.

At least Lev had never fought such a comfortable battle.

The soldiers began to take care of the battlefield, and he took out the secret key, edited a message and sent it to Lu Qi.

Bruin City.

Lu Qi and his army were stationed in the city for one night and had a good rest.

Just when the army began to reorganize and prepare to continue marching, Lu Qi's secret key received the news.

"Sure enough, Noxus sent troops to attack another of our armies."

Lu Qi was not surprised when he saw the news.

I have to admit that the opponent's general's idea is still very bold. If it were a conventional war, they might really suffer this loss.

Using the prisoners of war as cover and superficial force, they actually sent out real troops to set off quickly, using the three-hour gap in between to achieve a speed that was unmatched by the flying monsters.

When Lu Qi discovered their intention and sent a dragon bird or flying monster to send a message, they were already halfway through their departure.

By the time the message was delivered, they had arrived at their destination.

Without preparation, even if Lev led the army, he would probably suffer heavy losses under such a large-scale army surprise attack.

But alas, this is not a conventional war.

Noxus didn't know that it only took less than a second for Lucci to convey the message through the secret key.

After such a wave, they should also know not to fight easily with Demacia due to information gaps.
