Rise of the Empire Total War

On a road from the Pintus Territory to the Sukenya Territory, an army of nearly 6,000 people is marching. They fly a variety of flags, which are not unified, and some flags are stained with blood and mud. Embarrassed. Not only that, their soldiers were also downcast and silent. Although there were no traces of fighting on their bodies, it could still be inferred from this that they had just experienced a failed battle.

And it is true. This army was the coalition army that had just retreated from the city of Tus. After recuperating for a while, King Titos, who was the commander-in-chief, ordered the whole army to move again to the city of Suken. They did not dare to stay in the territory of Pintus. Inside, it seems that there is a great danger hidden in this place.

What they didn't know was that if they kept marching, they would be walking into a trap set by the Winsters.

"Lieutenant General Derek, our scouts have discovered a group of nearly 6,000 enemy troops. It seems that they have experienced a defeat not long ago."

In a forest in front of the coalition forces, there are already more than 2,000 soldiers of the First Legion and the Kingdom of Lucino hidden. The commander in charge is the deputy general Derek next to Earl Charles. The Danish commander is listening According to the report of the officers around him, his brows were slightly frowned. The enemy has 6,000 soldiers, but he only has 2,000 soldiers in ambush here, and 300 of them are unusable Lucino soldiers. These weak soldiers fight against the wind. Like a tiger going down a mountain, it will show its true colors if you fight hard.

"According to the original plan, after most of the enemy has entered the ambush circle, cut down the big tree used to block the road before attacking." Derek said, depending on the situation, Earl Charles' plan has succeeded, the enemy has been defeated, and the responsible He who was in ambush naturally couldn't retreat, letting the enemy go was a trivial matter, and he would lose out if he was punished by Earl Charles after the fall.

"Obey." The officer who had known the number of enemy troops was a little timid, but seeing that Commander Derek's face was calm and not panicked at all, he calmed down and went to pass on Derek's order. .

Speaking of which, after many days of ambushes, this army has already produced a large number of fireballs. The inside of this kind of fireball is a huge stone, and the outside is wrapped in its own combustible material. Causes massive damage. In history, even the elite like the Roman Legion would be scattered by fireballs, and then cut down by the barbarians who roared and charged (refer to the movie "Missing: The Ninth Eagle").

On the other side, an hour or two later, the coalition army led by King Titos walked into the ambush circle unprepared, because they were defeated by the main force of Winster's army in the city of Tus not long ago, so they sent their scouts to the rear, To detect whether the enemy is chasing, so they know nothing about everything ahead - of course, this should only be one of the factors, and the more important thing is that they don't think there will be an army of Winsters ahead. Just imagine Winston The special people have already rushed to the city of Tus with 8,000 reinforcements. How could there be extra troops deployed here in advance to intercept them?

The cause of this false information is thanks to Marcos, the deputy commander of the coalition army, Prince Marcos of the Kingdom of Osong. If he hadn't lied about the military situation in order to preserve his dignity, Titos would have been more careful.

What? Do you think Titos won't ask the broken soldiers who fled back with Marcos? Please, how could these self-regarding nobles put down their dignity and ask those lowly soldiers in their eyes, what's more, Marcos, who is a prince, said it himself, which is more credible in their eyes.

Tragedy happened from this.

Click - boom!

When most of the coalition forces entered the ambush point, there was only a crisp cracking sound, and a towering tree standing on the coalition army's marching route collapsed and fell directly on the wide stone pavement road, blocking the advance of the coalition forces. The route, not only that, behind them, the same thing happened. The towering trees fell heavily, breaking the middle of the coalition army on the march, and killing many soldiers who couldn't dodge at once.

"Enemy attack!!!"

next moment,

A shrill scream tore through the tranquility of the woods, and the coalition army immediately fell into chaos. Although they had not been attacked yet, their already low morale was shaken again. Those soldiers who were not trapped inside retreated one after another. Regardless of the cries of the people inside, they actually retreated privately.

Titos looked at all this angrily. Although he didn't curse directly like those soldiers, his clenched fist could still see his anger. At this moment, Prince Marcos rode over and asked in a panic. Said: "Your Majesty, what should we do?"

what to do? After hearing his question, King Titos took a deep breath, suppressed the useless anger in his heart, drew out the sword at his waist, and roared: "Don't panic, line up! Line up!"

"Trust me, I will definitely take you out alive!"

Perhaps Titos' words played a role. Although the chaotic soldiers were still full of panic, they barely formed a phalanx. They crowded together densely, standing their shields in front of them, and resting their weapons on the shields. He looked at the woods on both sides of the road in horror, as if a flood of beasts would rush out of it in the next moment.

"Palhati, go to the back, I want you to be in the rear!" Titos continued to order, and after hearing his words, Parhati not far away promised, and rode his horse to the rear. Looking at his back, Titos then shouted: "All cavalry dismount and engage in foot combat!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a deep and distant horn sounded from the depths of the woods on both sides of the road. He was very familiar with the sound of this horn. It was clearly the horn that the Winsters blew before they attacked!

Hearing the sound of the horn, the faces of the soldiers in the phalanx changed drastically. Their hearts were full of uneasiness. At the same time, they looked around, trying to find a favorable escape route, but to their disappointment, both ends of the road were blocked by big trees , unless the enemy is defeated, they will have no chance of escaping!

Woo--

The sound of the trumpet continued to reverberate over the woods, and the birds that were disturbed by the human movement were flying in the sky. They fluttered their wings and looked at the human beings with their small eyes. It seemed that the gods used their bodies to try to Observe the process of human war.

boom--

A few seconds later, a piece of light suddenly lit up in the forest, and immediately after, countless burning fireballs rushed out of the forest, rushed down the slope, and rushed towards the phalanx in the middle of the road!

"Steady the formation, stabilize the formation!"

"what--"

In just a few seconds, a large number of fireballs rushed into the crowd in the middle of the road, tearing apart the phalanx formed by the coalition soldiers. The burning fireballs ignited the clothes on these soldiers. The soldiers who encountered the fireball uttered heart-piercing screams, and the whole paved road was like a purgatory on earth!
