Chapter 1089
Anson Zade’s recent days have been very difficult.
After getting the information of Loren Torino, the little Prince of the Elf immediately had some unpleasant premonitions, so on the one hand, he continued to gather his troops, on the other hand, he stepped up the battle against Imperial Capital. Ready to work.
Although it was later learned that there was no large-scale army near Western Sarkland, I should have been deceived by the Duke of Byrne. There were only less than two thousand cavalry around him-but even if there were only Loren Torino himself is also a great threat that needs to be completely strangled to death.
So the work of the chief wizard Anson Zade of the Regalia changed from rectifying the occupied area to encircling the Duke of Byrne.
This is not an easy and pleasant job-the enemy is a full cavalry configuration. Unless they actively attack the strongholds in the blockade or focus on the breakthrough occupied area, there is no way to judge their specific location or capture. Can't catch up.
What's more, just as the little elf Prince fears, even if Loren is alone, there is still a threat; he has the record of beheading the chief of the court, and has a good understanding of the tactics of the Azores, and wants to defeat him. It seems to be difficult.
Even in the battle of Eboden, which had a great advantage, the little Prince, who was full of ace cards, was still blocked on the coast for 20 days, and had to fight for more than ten days in the city. In the war, heavy casualties were paid, and finally the Duke of Byrne and the soldiers and civilians in the city were allowed to leave safely, which was considered to have occupied the city.
Even if it has been a long time, the shadow of the battle of Eboden on Anson Zade is still vivid and unforgettable...
So the chief wizard of the Regalia decided to wait and worship The Duke of Encouragement first started, and then he thought about his next plan for himself-but he didn't expect that it would be the same night, and he had already settled for the convenience.
Four strongholds were breached, six patrols were missing, a large number of imperial riots fled the stronghold, and an imperial cavalry was marching across the occupied area...
A lot of heaven falls The news of and earth rends fell like hail, and Anson Zade was stunned-in just one night, the originally seemingly solid blockade seemed to be papery in front of the Duke of Byrne. I was torn when I did it casually!
Lose one's head out of fear, he immediately began to organize new blockades and encirclement nets, and sent scouts to search for the exact location of the Duke of Byrne; then a lot of more "horrifying" news flooded in.
In the morning, Loren Torino was leading the army to attack the stronghold. At noon, news came that he and a group of survivors had ambushed the elven warrior patrol. In the evening, the Duke of Byrne was leading his army to pass through under the cover of cavalry. Blocked the line and moved closer to the Imperial Capital. At midnight, he suddenly withdrew the information from the Jewel River...
After confirming that the Lord Duke would not move instantaneously and reprimanding the scouts, Anson Zade, who was in a mess, began to mobilize troops from all over the area, and focused on blockades from the locations of various intelligence points.
Anyway, even if Duke Byrne really knows the Avatar Technique, the army in his hand is still very limited. Multi-line fighting intent means that his originally small army is split into very few. Several parts.
In this case, don't judge at all, press on the whole line-use dozens of times his strength to form an encirclement net and sweep all the places where he may be!
Then he found that he seemed to have been tricked by Loren Torino again......
............
Imperial Capital is directly under the southern section of the valley, An encounter has just ended.
Hundreds of Golden Lion battle flags with black background, equipped with a small number of Azorean weapons (captured and picked up) and simple equipment such as machetes, pitchforks, and wooden escapes, ready to bypass The continent’s survivors who took the trail to the Imperial Capital collided with the regiment chief wizard, Anson Zade’s entourage.
There was no warning at all. At the moment when the enemy was detected, nearly a hundred elven warriors launched a frontal charge in the form of a skirmish line. Facing the fierce elven warrior, the survivors were rushed on the spot. The army was broken, luggage, weapons, armor, and flags were thrown everywhere, moving towards the surrounding mountains and jungle and fleeing.
But they failed.
The elf warrior, twice as large as the front, has already opened the encirclement net around it, hunting and killing every survivor who dares to escape like a hunting;
Except for a few desperadoes , Most of the captured survivors immediately surrendered, surrounded by the elven warriors, and executed on the spot.
Survivors, none—under the sword of the wizard warrior, these people have no chance of escape.
The strong smell of blood permeated the valley, and the blood penetrated into the soil, making the paths that were not easy to walk underneath them even more muddy.
The elves warriors who were instilled with "life and death righteousness" had no resistance to this kind of slaughter-and after encountering rebellions and riots, the last little bit of "compassion" was also Replaced by extreme disgust and contempt.
Sure enough, Your Majesty Xiong Yingwang is extremely wise. The Azores and the Empires can only exist, and there is no possibility of harmonious coexistence; only the Empires will be completely razed to their land and cities. , In exchange for the future of the Azores...
"We have already found out everything."
Zade took a small step and walked to Anson Zade's side: "The imperial people we just defeated were the local natives assembled by the Duke of Byrne five days ago—it happened to be the day when the nearby valley stronghold was breached. ."
"Oh, yes, they claim to be the'Black Duke Advance Army'. It is said that there is also a battle flag given by the Duke of Byrne—this is what I just heard, I don’t know. Is it useful?" The elven girl Yiyiyaya added.
"My lord elder sister, you really worked so hard." Anson Zade gave a wry smile, with a hint of helplessness in his words.
There is still fatigue.
In the past few days, he has successively eliminated the "Black Duke Glory Team", the "Black Duke Vanguard Infantry Legion", the "Black Duke War Gang", and the "Black Duke Dalian Team", "Black Duke Banner", and...
As for the title, it’s myriad, from "Honor Byrne Knight" to "Black Duke First Servant", "Black Duke" "The Standard Bearer of Honor", "Born Knight's Count", "Noble Member of the Imperial Council"... Anyway, it's all made up!
There was even a young man who was captured alive by him with a bag of gold coins on his back. He insisted that he saw the Black Duke himself, but refused to say his marching direction...Anson Zade had to Kill him.
Black Duke, Black Duke...There are black Duke everywhere. Almost all the guys hit by him are under the banner of Golden Lion on the black background. They can’t tell which one is the Duke of Byrne before contacting. The army made An Sen feel confused and confused.
The most troublesome thing is that he has not dared to let these guys go, lest there will be more soldiers under the banner of "Black Duke" and disrupt his vision.
This kind of fighting like a headless fly lasted for three days. In order to pursue all possible targets, the army around Anson Zade has become less and less. The army of nearly 10,000 people has Cut to a thousand or so, chasing in one direction.
The reason is simple: the army around the Duke of Byrne is mainly Knight. Cavalry is impossible to walk in mountains and forests, and can only move on roads and trails; so as long as you chase down one road, it’s definitely Can find clues to his actions by Lord Byrne.
This idea is correct, because early yesterday morning, he did find traces of large-scale cavalry operations; after judging that he was on the periphery of the blockade, Anson Zade immediately judged that the surrounding area was very It may be the main force of the Duke of Byrne!
So after a day of fast marching, Anson Zade, gasping for breath, finally found the abandoned camp where Loren Torino had been; before he got excited, a new message suddenly came:
p>A large number of elite cavalry who are suspected of being the Duke of Byrne are about to break through the blockade and head to the direction of Imperial Capital. They are in urgent need of reinforcements!
The direction of the breakthrough is behind Anson Zade, which is almost three days’ journey by the elves warriors. If converted into cavalry, it is almost the same day that Loren Torino found the trail. They have been thrown off, and turned around to break through in the direction of Imperial Capital.
Anson Zade finally broke down.
East, South, West, North, valley plains, riverside jungles, avenues and trails...The black duke’s banner everywhere seems to be the Duke of Byrne, and it seems that none of them are; he may appear outside the blockade today , It may be besieging strongholds, or it may be forcibly breaking through, or stealth breaking through...
Anyway, no matter how large Anson Zade’s encirclement network is organized and how many troops are mobilized to pursue and intercept, Loren Torino seems to have it. To find a route that I don't know at all, Calm's slips away in front of my eyes.
And more than once!
This battle method, which is completely inconsistent with the warrior method and completely inconsistent with the fighting style of the imperial army, put Anson Zade in a daze. The Duke of Byrne has a With thousands of five hundred elite Knights, even if there are nearly 10,000 people on his side, he is not without the power of a battle.
Theoretically, it is not impossible to force a breakthrough, and it is even very likely to succeed; but Loren Torino did not, and instead set fire to the area controlled by the Azores, making this airtight Surrounded by fire beacon everywhere.
But it is this weird battle method that has plunged the entire blockade into chaos. The battle strength and supplies are rapidly losing, and like a headless fly, I don’t know what I’m doing. What should I do.
Anson Zade is now even anxious for his mission to fail. Loren Torino has escaped the blockade and entered the Imperial Capital city-at least the goal is clear, and there is no need to think about "The Duke of Byrne is here." "Where" is a terrible question, the past few days he has had enough.
"Are you tired?"
The blindfolded elf girl suddenly opened the mouth and said.
Anson Zade lifts the head, looking towards her in a daze: "Elder sister..."
"It’s nothing, it’s just the first time from Anson’s body for so many years. Feeling a breath of lethargy." Lori said as she gently sat beside her younger brother: "If you insist on saying something, there seems to be some fear in it."
"Ah...it's already obvious. Has it been noticed by the elder sister?" An Sen showed a wry smile: "I'm so sorry, I..."
Before she finished speaking, Lori raised her right hand and held down the younger brother's Mouth, shook his head slightly.
"No, there is nothing to be ashamed of or to say...Anson, you really should be afraid." The elf girl said seriously:
"Because the empire you are going to be the enemy with, He has the power to slay the chief of the superintendent front, and the power to block His Royal Highness Rodria in Eboden-I don’t know the latter, but the former...I...I don’t have that confidence."
"So you You must be afraid, and then use all your power after the fear; if necessary, you even need to break the bottom line and use everything you can to defeat him-otherwise we will never be able to defeat Loren Torino, and his existence will become righteous. The biggest obstacle on the road."
"Fear him, and then defeat him, Anson...in the name of Zade, in the name of wizard, in the name of...righteousness."
High-sounding words, from the closest population, yiyiyaya is also somewhat immature and lovely.
But Anson Zade’s face has unprecedented solemnity.
"I understand." Slightly nodded, An Sen's mouth has a smile: "Many thanks to the elder sister, your comfort is still the same as usual."
"Then...is it better?"
"Well, it's better."
"In that case, where do we go next... Continue to follow the trail?"
"No, let's return." Anson shook his head and said flatly:
"Because of my incompetence, Loren Torino was in the entire blockade as if there was no one, but it was also exposed. Out of his purpose-in the past few days, what he did was not only fighting us, but also fighting people in the city. All the movements he made were shown to the people trapped in the Imperial Capital city. "
"This is a battle of confidence. He wants to boost the morale of the defenders of Imperial Capital in the name of the'Black Duke', and may also have the idea of fighting for control of the defenders, but no matter How, he is trying to take the opportunity to mess up the battlefield and let the rhythm and initiative fall into his hands."
"Then we have only one thing to do-let him think Lost."
The elf girl tilted her head, expressing her incomprehension.
"Loren Torino's purpose is to use these riots to undermine the control of our team's surrounding Imperial Capital, so we simply do the opposite and completely abandon these areas." Anson Zade explained:
"Loot all the supplies, burn all the strongholds, evacuate all the strongholds, take away all the prisoners-in short, leave him nothing but scorched earth, and then retreat close to the attack. The location of the city camp, re-establish a blockade line."
"This reduced blockade line, if Loren Torino just wants to go to the Imperial Capital, then his goal has been achieved-hiding in the dark The enemy at the place will have to fight against the army of his Highness in the light place."
"But, if his purpose is more than that..." The 20,000 troops that have assembled and are waiting in full battle will become Loren · Torino's nightmare!"
