After the cavalry charged for a while, they all seemed to be stuck in a quagmire and couldn't continue to charge. The battlefield area was too large. After the cavalry staggered into the enemy's infantry position, they didn't have enough attack power to penetrate the enemy's position. From time to time, some knights were forced to stop Had to fall into a hard fight.

The infantry of the two armies also collided with each other quickly, and Ronan led the cavalry to charge left and right, tearing apart the enemy's position, and intersecting with the knights led by Barbossa from time to time.

Due to the anxious situation, Leon had to reduce the siege efforts and send more troops to the battlefield where he was fighting Ronan to gain more advantages, but Ronan received the news from Bernhard at the same time.

Retreat! The order to withdraw troops was conveyed to the entire position. Because it was arranged in advance, Ronan's troops did not rush forward except for the more mobile cavalry. They just stood firm to deal with the impact of Leon's troops.

The retreat horn sounded, and Ronan's troops began to retreat steadily. The cavalry archers who had been standing still before also ran out and began to harass and block the pursuit of Leon's army.

After some soldiers stayed behind, the rest of the troops retreated according to the planned route under the cover of the cavalry archers. Ronandai led his knights and the cavalry of Barbosa's side to entangle for a while, and then also covered the help of the troops. Start to evacuate.

As the last soldier left to cover fell, Barbosa took off his helmet and looked at the messy battlefield with a frown. The fighting spirit of those soldiers left behind was something Barbosa had never seen before.

The attitude of treating death like home and continuing to fight until all casualties left Barbosa a little moved, and he also had some bad premonitions. The ordinary troops, after knowing that they were left behind to die, basically broke up or surrendered in a short time. Yes, that is, Ronan's system troops can achieve this level.

The battle didn't take long this time, but nearly two thousand soldiers were lost, although Leon's troops lost even more than us in terms of siege. Ronan took off his helmet and said with a gloomy face. I had already prepared in my heart, but I was still a little unhappy.

One will be exhausted, my lord, their sacrifice is worth it! Magna was right next to Ronan. He didn't charge with Ronan just now, but was in charge of leading the cavalry without Jackson.

Well, do you think it took them a few times to find out that something was wrong? Ronan turned his head and asked Magna.

Two or three times, after all, we have been fighting with them with such a large damage, and retreated after each break, but they will definitely not be able to guess the truth. They will wonder why we didn't directly It’s a bit of a loss every time we go together, but it’s absolutely impossible to guess that we will continue to get new troops.” Magna said after thinking for a while.

I'm afraid two or three times are not enough? Ronan asked again. According to previous estimates, two or three times of such mutual consumption should not be enough to equalize the strength of the two armies.

Actually, that's enough, my lord. They are not like us. They will definitely not be able to endure such attrition several times. After all, they are composed of a coalition of nobles, and they may not be of one mind. When there is too much attrition, some people will inevitably be dissatisfied or disagree.

After Jackson cut off their supplies and even harassed the territories of some eastern nobles, their military morale must have been shaken more violently, and we would no longer have to use this method to reduce the gap between the two armies. It is impossible to squat us in the siege.

At that time, we will break it up into pieces and play hide-and-seek with them. It doesn't matter if we lose some city territory, because they must be at the end of their battle at that time, and we don't need to do anything more. If they can't deal with Jackson and his party behind them, it will be very fast. It is about to collapse and retreat, and then we will take the initiative. Magna analyzed Ronan, this is also his consistent strategy, try to avoid frontal combat.

If it wasn't for Ronan who didn't want to lose Fengming City, he would never propose such a tactic to reduce the gap between the two sides. Fight small-scale local battles, and use the characteristics of stronger local combat power of your own troops to defeat the opponent.

But this kind of shortcoming is bound to be taken away by Leon. In Gaoling, who advocates chivalry and force, it will inevitably lose some reputation if he is dismissed like this. He is said to be cowardly or insidious, and it is not very suitable. Ronan's anger.

Only about half a month later, the two armies fought like this again. This time Leon was determined to capture Fengming City, and did not allocate more troops to deal with Ronan's army, but Bernhard was also very good. The cooperation with the wyvern sent by Ronan forcibly destroyed the siege ladder sent by Leon, blocking Leon's attack this time.

How do they know every time we attack, and come so timely every time! Leon slammed his helmet on the ground and roared angrily.

What's wrong is that this city is definitely not that important to him. Why do they insist on supporting and keeping this city? Even at the cost of huge casualties, the soldiers who stayed behind were very elite and powerful. Don't you feel bad for them just consuming it like this?

And this kind of consumption is definitely more inappropriate for them. They are already weaker than us, so why should they fight us if they continue to consume so much? As long as that Rodrite is not a fool, there must be some conspiracy! Barbosa followed Leon into the tent, and said with some doubts.

It can't be like this anymore. No matter what schemes they have, it must be because their strength is not as good as ours now. Immediately send scouts to find their traces and attack them. If they don't fight, they will ignore the territory along the way and go directly to Starfall City. , I don't believe he can still sit still after we arrive at Meteor City! Leon said angrily.

But there is a problem with this, that is, it is very stressful for our supplies! Barbosa brought up the shortcomings of this plan.

Then contact the logistics and increase the weight of the next supply. It's time for the grain harvest soon. We can plunder some village-style farmland along the way! Leon continued.

Barbosa nodded. He also felt that something was wrong, but he really couldn't be led by the nose like this. The nobles who suffered a lot in these two battles had some discordant voices. The longer it lasts, the more unfavorable it is. Although the main force is the expeditionary force that Leon took away at the beginning, those noble coalition forces are still a force that cannot be ignored.
