Chapter 233 Great Rout

As time went by, the battlefield became more and more chaotic.Whether it is the orc army or the human army, they have all fallen into the embarrassing situation of "the soldiers don't know the generals, and the generals don't know the soldiers".

The situation of human soldiers is better. Ordinary soldiers don't have so many life and death enemies.Even if there are individual enemies, the probability of encountering them on the battlefield is not high.

The orc army was different. Although they were fighting together, the racial hatred accumulated over countless years could not be eliminated with a single military order.

After falling into chaos, the original military orders and laws also lost their binding force on everyone.

I don't know who made a bad start, killing the hostile aliens who strayed into the army of their own race, and then spread to the entire army.

Pandora's box is opened, and the situation is no longer under control.At this moment, all the ugliness of the beast was exposed.

First of all, it is to kill the hostile race that strayed into it, and then it becomes actively looking for opportunities for revenge.This kind of thing happened so much that it was impossible to keep it secret.

It's a beast's brain, so it's not so clever to think about problems.When he found out that his own person had been killed, he brought up the knife to take revenge without even thinking about it.

"Stop it, you idiots! Supervise the battle team, separate them..."

Balazs roared.

At such a time, there can still be cannibalism, and he is powerless.There are really "pig teammates" in this wave, and they really can't be moved!

Facts have proved that low-level orcs with insufficient IQ will not think so much once they become red-eyed.The intervention of the supervisory team just added a group of people to join the melee.

Command the army to fight?

At this moment, it has become a joke.Even if it is an expeditionary force, what Hudson can mobilize now is only the reserve team that has not participated in the battle and the cavalry wandering on the edge of the battlefield.

The team that was deeply involved in the war was already in a mess at this moment.The training in the past can only allow the soldiers below to maintain the linkage of a small group of ten people.

Officers who can gather hundreds of soldiers are talents.As for more troops, it is no longer a question of wanting to, but it is simply impossible in reality.

In the era when communications depended on roaring, after the army fell into chaos, the limit of the soldiers that a front-line officer could directly command was the range of his voice.

Beyond this limit, soldiers can't even hear the orders of officers, let alone implement them.

There is no doubt that in this chaotic scene, no matter how many troops are thrown into it, they will soon be dragged into chaos.

Now the more you do, the more mistakes you make.For soldiers trapped in the battlefield, any order issued will cause a new round of chaos.

It is meaningless to increase troops, so just watch them kill randomly!
After this bloody battle, all the survivors are veterans.They couldn't stand the test of war and fell on the battlefield. They could only be considered unlucky.

In troubled times, the least valuable thing is "life".

……

"Stop shelling at the south gate, and start shelling from the other three gates instead. You don't need to aim, just shoot randomly at me. The farther the shells hit, the better!"

Earl Martins suddenly ordered.

The battle in the south of the city has been going on until now, and the two armies have been fighting together. If the magic crystal cannon continues to bombard, it will be fighting with their own people.

On the contrary, the other three sides are completely dark at the moment, and nothing can be seen.Adding some artillery fire can create psychological pressure on the orc army.

"Fire back with the magic crystal cannon!"

Baratz's illness ordered him to go to the doctor in a hurry.

This was the second time he made a mistake. He had just ordered the besieging troops to come over for reinforcements, and now he asked them to organize firepower to fight back. It was a complete failure.

It's a pity that Balazs has no choice. Seeing the army collapse, he has to do something.

Regardless of the fact that the two sides are still fighting, it's just that the orc army in the center has no place to run.There are more and more deserters sneaking away in the fringe areas, and some even run away in tribes.

Originally, the centripetal force of the orc empire was not strong, and the army obeyed the orders of the five royal families purely out of respect for the strong.

They are all oppressed beasts on weekdays. Asking them to devote their lives to the Beastman Empire is obviously embarrassing the "beast" on purpose.

The magic lamp on the tower could not cover the entire battlefield after all.There are too many unknowns hidden in dark corners.

Orc soldiers kept fleeing, and reinforcements from the other three sides of the city wall kept coming to make up for it. The collapsed battle situation was dragged down in a daze.

Unfortunately, Balazs was not in the least happy.

The scene was too chaotic, the orc army had already overwhelmed the entire army, the expeditionary army still had a reserve team, and not all the defenders in the city had come out.

The dawn is their doomsday, and maybe they don't need to wait for the dawn.

Time passed by every minute and every second, and the battlefield was completely in chaos.At this point, even if Balazs wanted to give the order, he didn't know who to give the order to.

The commanders of the major legions under his command have all lost contact. As the commander, only the soldiers of his own tribe are left available.

The big crash finally came, but this time the crash came a bit bloody.

More and more deserters directly led the follow-up reinforcements in the wrong direction, and ran all the way in the dark night.

It was too late when the tribal leader realized that he was going off track, and the troops could not be found in the dark night. The chaotic army behind squeezed the front team and disappeared forever on the way to escape.

Whether it was accidental or deliberate, it doesn't matter now.

Without reinforcements, the orc soldiers exposed to the lights quickly realized something was wrong.

The comrades-in-arms all ran away, and whoever stayed behind for a bloody battle would be a fool.

One by one scrambling to run, anyway, with the cover of night, they are not afraid of the enemy's pursuit.

"Ming Jin withdraws troops, treats the wounded!"

Hudson suddenly ordered.

In the vast darkness of night, with only a little bit of light from the moon, he really didn't dare to let his army continue to pursue.

Reason told him that if the soldiers were to attack at this time, there would definitely be more people who would be lost tomorrow morning than those who would die in battle tonight.

Now that the battle has progressed, the scattered orc soldiers have fled to nowhere, and it is no easy task to reorganize.

What's more, all the siege weapons they carried were thrown under the city. Even if they completed the reorganization again, they lost the ability to threaten Dapes.

Seeing the soldiers collect the magic crystal cannon and bed crossbow, Hudson was speechless.Sure enough, it was very orc-like, and it was bigger than the ones he had seen before.

Being able to transport so many big guys is enough to prove how hard the orcs are.

It's a pity that these five big and three rough guys are destined to have no chance with the expeditionary army, and can only be thrown to the Moxi people as defense tools.

The magic crystals and magic cores used to emit energy were most likely taken away by the orcs, and none of them were left behind.

After searching all the orc camps, no valuable loot was found, which made Hudson feel very disappointed.

The broken copper and rotten iron all over the floor really didn't interest him, so he simply left the aftermath work to the Moxi people.

"Your Excellency, the palace has prepared a celebration banquet, please..."

Before the visitor could finish speaking, Hudson interrupted: "I'm tired today, orc reinforcements may appear at any time, and the expeditionary force still has follow-up work to deal with.

I will not be attending the celebration banquet, please thank Your Majesty the King for my kindness! "

The news of Chris IX's illness was kept strictly confidential, and all edicts were issued normally in the name of the king, even Hudson did not know about it.

Hearing the words of refusal, Renato was both embarrassed and relieved.

Refusing to attend the banquet is a trivial matter, the key is that the expeditionary force did not ask to enter the city.The military discipline of the army is not very good these days, especially this kind of guest army.

It's fine if other places are harmed, Dapes is the capital of the king.If you are tossed about, you will have to suffer heavy losses.

Even though it was rumored that the military discipline of the expeditionary army was strict, the senior officials of the Principality of Moxi did not dare to bet.

I didn't know how to refuse the expeditionary army to enter the city. I didn't expect that Hudson had no idea of ​​letting everyone enter the city at all.

After solving his worries, Renato became more and more eager.

It's a pity that Hudson is not a diplomat, and he is not interested in in-depth communication with the foreign minister of the Principality of Moxi, so he dismissed him in a few words.

Take the opportunity to deepen the friendship between the two countries?
That was something the king and the ministers in the capital had to consider. As the commander-in-chief of the expeditionary force, he only needed to fight a good battle.

It is not a good moral character to seek his own affairs in his position and stretch his hands around. Who makes Hudson, the coach, still a rookie?

The current position is all played out.The foundation in the kingdom is extremely unstable, and he has no qualifications to be a minister at all.

If it were a certain veteran nobleman, he would have been fully responsible for the affairs of the Principality of Moxi at this moment, and would try to distribute as much cake as possible, and would not give others a chance at all.

In fact, Hudson is also operating.It's just that they are all forming good karma in their personal capacity, and it won't be effective in the short term.

After the war is over, it is time to reap the fruits.He is not qualified to touch the political interests that are on the surface, but it does not mean that the hidden commercial interests cannot intervene.

As a commanding general, a bit of aloofness is also a must.How indifferent he is in business, but how enthusiastic he is in private.When dealing with smart people, everything goes without saying.

Lifting the siege of Dapace is only half completed.The next step is to withstand the orc's counterattack before the real success is complete.

After sending Renato away, Hudson had secretly planned how to deal with the Beamon cavalry.This is also a battle against time.

The five imperial courts of the orcs have all sent reinforcements, and they will arrive at the city of Dapace in the fastest five days.The slowest one is still building the road. I don't know when it will arrive, so I don't need to think about it for the time being.

If you want to severely damage or encircle the Beamon cavalry, the time left for them is only five days, and it may even be less.

The news of tonight's battle will soon reach the orc royal court, and it is very likely that they will change their decision and let the cavalry get ahead of the brigade.

Then the original five-day journey can be completed in two days at most.If you dare to run all the way, you will not be surprised to reach the front line Hudson one day.

Of course, the probability of this happening is very low.If you really play long-distance raids, your combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced, and you will suffer a big loss if you are not careful.

It is undoubtedly the best choice to make use of the difference in the arrival time of the orc reinforcements from all walks of life to make a gap.

Dare to plan like this, Hudson also has the confidence.The orcs have reinforcements, and the Principality of Moxi also has reinforcements.

Although the reinforcements from the southern provinces were beaten up by the Beamon cavalry, they have not received bad news of the entire army's destruction so far, which means that the situation will not be too bad.

What's more, the other two reinforcements are still doing well.And the arrival time was a little faster than the orc army.

Even if the ordinary army is ignored, the elite regiments of the Principality of Moxi can always come in handy.Especially those knight groups are the absolute main force.

Relying on the superiority of troops, it would be perfect if there was a time difference between attacking the enemy and turning the orc's encirclement plan into a "refueling tactic".

Whether it can be realized or not, there is always a plan.Although the success rate is low, what if the enemy is stupid?

If you open the history books, you will find that 90.00% of the legendary battles are filled with a lot of idiots.

On the contrary, it is the kind of peak duel that rarely becomes a legend.Unless there is an absolute gap in strength, there is a high probability that if the two powerhouses meet, they will end up with both losers.

……

Bathed in the first ray of sunlight in the morning, he turned around and glanced at the Beamon cavalry who were waiting in formation. Prince Butzweig waved his hand and said, "The whole army set off and return to Dapes!"

Watching the mighty Beamon cavalry leave, Earl Fidelis, who wanted to order the whole army to attack several times and stab the Beamon cavalry in the eye, finally resisted the temptation.

I really can't afford to offend him, as far as the number of cavalry in his hand is concerned, if he offends the Beamon cavalry, few of them will be able to come back alive.

Not to mention the infantry, they couldn't even touch the shadow of the Bimon cavalry, let alone causing trouble to others in the past.

Suddenly an eagle descended from the sky and landed in front of the Beamon cavalry.It can be seen from the blood color hidden in the eagle's eyes that he must not have slept well last night.

Although Yingman's vision is good, in the dark night, it is inevitable that he will go astray.

In order to send the information as soon as possible, when the orc army suffered a major defeat, all the Eaglemen in the orc army traveled day and night, looking for traces of Prince Butzweig's camp.

In the end, it was the messenger who had run twice before, who found the Beamon army first.

"Hurry up... tell Prince Butzweig that the army...during the night...something happened!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he passed out directly, and passed the bad news to Prince Butzweig successfully.

"Sacrifice, save people!"

After receiving the news, Prince Butzweig hurriedly ordered.

He may not care about the life and death of an Yingman, but he cannot ignore the life and death of the 30 besieging army.

Even if these troops were defined as cannon fodder from the very beginning, they couldn't be buried in such a vague way.

The ancient sacrificial song sounded, and Yingren, who was in a coma, slowly opened his eyes. He just opened his mouth to say something, but suddenly got stuck.

The expression of the priest in charge of the treatment changed, he just wanted to wake up the person as soon as possible, but he didn't expect that the side effect of the spell he cast was too great, so he sent the person away directly.

He kept crying in his heart, but he said without changing his face: "Your Highness, this eagle has been injured many times, and its body has long been exhausted. Now it has returned to the embrace of the beast god!"

He didn't ask any useful information, and wasted his time on the road. Prince Butzweig's face was very ugly.

However, he was helpless in the face of the fearless priest.A layman like him has no say in such professional matters.

"Keep going!"

While speaking, he had turned over and jumped onto the beast.
