Lord of War

  William would never think that this time the real commander of the army is not Domingo Hastings, but Thain Hastings.

  Even what he thought was a wonderful way to break the game was not invented by Domingo. He did not have the courage to make a desperate move, otherwise he would not be just an earl. But Domingo does not, but Thain does. He is not a person who can only talk about military affairs on paper. Whether it is territorial governance or military strategy, he is not bad. If it were not because he was an illegitimate child, the heir of the Hastings family would have been early. There will be nothing wrong with Avi.

  Of course, it’s not too late now.

  Tian has been officially recognized by Domingo at the Hastings family meeting yesterday and has become a member of the Hastings family.

  If there is no accident—of course, that means he can win this battle, then he is the next heir to the Hastings family.

   originally seemed to him to be a sure thing, but now it is an accident that shocked the entire Hastings family.

  Even Domingo Hastings directly fell ill after hearing the news.

   Seyin's face was uncertain, he just stared at the urgent report before him, and did not speak for a long time.

  "Turnchi was killed, the first regiment was annihilated, Taylor was killed, and the 2nd Cavalry regiment of Darbion suffered heavy casualties. He has now retreated to the capital."

  The words in the emergency report are very brief, but the significance they bring is extremely surprising.

Teenqi was killed, and Thain didn’t feel it at all. Ever since he met Sean’s troops in Void City, he already knew that the private army led by Tinki was not comparable to the opponent. This can be seen in the Lion of Thunder. The battlefield over there will know.

  Six thousand against five thousand, the result was only two or three days, only three thousand people finally escaped to Roves.

  If this result was acceptable to Thain, then 6000 people played against 3000, and the result was that 6000 people were defeated. This result made Thain unacceptable. Even if the opponent has a magician and a cavalry force that does not count the casualties, but if the number is twice the opponent, even if it can't win, at least it should be an orderly retreat, not a big rout!

   But the fact is that 6,000 people only fled back to nearly 4,000, but the other side only suffered nearly 1,000 casualties.

  The battle loss ratio of two to one does not seem to be a big deal, but the problem is that the opponent has only three thousand people!

   Thain forced himself to be calm.

  He took a few deep breaths and finally suppressed the resentment after seeing this urgent report. He originally wanted to rely on the back support of the 2nd Cavalry Regiment of Darbion, and then gather all the troops in his confinement to attack William’s coach in an attack, a front and rear encirclement tactic, but now Darbion is second. The cavalry regiment withdrew from the battle, and the force he could use was only ten thousand people left. Thain was still a little helpless.

  In fact, as long as the Dabion 2nd Cavalry Regiment does not retreat, but insists on returning, Thain is 100% sure that William and Sean can be left behind. And as long as these two people remain, then the war will be won by their Ting Qi, and he will be able to take it back no matter whether Rofus or other areas fall in the end. But he also knew very well that this time his father was able to bring the 2nd Cavalry Regiment of Dabion to participate in the war with Pandaren. Of course, it was because of the influence of Duke Nugus that the royal family acquiesced in this. This kind of behavior, otherwise, how could his father command this army to participate in the war between the nobles?

  You know, the 2nd Cavalry Regiment of Darbion represents the army of the Kingdom of Darbion!

  An army officially organized by the kingdom is involved in the conflicting war between the two nobles. Is this to start a national war?

  So, if the 2nd Cavalry Regiment of Darbion had too many casualties, then this unit would definitely choose to withdraw from the dispute between the two nobles. It's just that Thain didn't expect that things would come so soon, and even Tyler was killed on the battlefield, which was a heavy blow to the Hastings family.

  Because, now the Hastings family has only one golden power left.

  Once even this golden powerhouse is dead, then this battle can be eliminated.

  Because as long as the opponent has the courage to adopt decapitation tactics and successfully kill him as the commander, then the army under his command will completely fall into the chaos of losing the commander. With William's ability to command in battle, Thain believes that no matter how large an army loses its commander, it cannot pose any threat at all.

Perhaps others may not dare to take the risk of using decapitation tactics, because any commander who is not outstanding in personal strength will definitely have a jing sharp jing guard. This jing guard is used to prevent decapitation tactics. The stronger the army. The guards around its commander will be stronger. Thain knows that in the war between the southern side of Darbion and the Principality of Ryan, the two sides invested a total of 13 sanctuary powerhouses. Only the marquise was protected by four sanctuary powerhouses, plus The thundering front she trained by herself has no way to implement the so-called decapitation tactics.

If it was tens of thousands of years ago, the personal strength of the strong can really be said to be invincible, but in this era, if there are people who think that they can come and go freely in the army by the personal strength of the strong, they can kill as they wish. Kill, then this person must be an idiot. If this is the case, what kind of army do the major countries need to train, what kind of arms race do they need to engage in, and how can there be military class distinctions such as Jing Rui and Ace?

   will take the risk of using decapitation tactics. They are all very courageous and determined to be desperate. If the difference between the military strength of the two sides is not too great, no commander is willing to take the risk of using decapitation tactics. But Thain is very clear that once he loses the protection of the golden power sent to him by the Hastings family, then William will definitely not hesitate to use decapitation tactics to quickly end the battle.

  Without him, the opponent has three low-level golden powerhouses, and they are still very powerful.

  If there is only one person, Thain is not afraid. After all, the thousand Jing Guardians around him are not vegetarian. But for the three, the result is completely different.

Of course, if Thain knew that there were not only three people around Sean, and once he joined Mensor and Anno, the number of gold powerhouses would surge to seven, and one of them would still be half-footed into the sanctuary. If he is truly strong, then he will definitely choose to surrender without hesitation.

  Do we still need to fight this kind of battle?

The so-called war between the nobles only broke out when the high-end combat power possessed by each other could almost check and balance each other.

   Once the high-end combat power of one of the parties is strong enough to completely break the balance, then the war will not break out at all.

  But even if Thain doesn't know that Sean has an ally such as Florence, his pressure is still very high.

   Stretched out his hand and rubbed his face, Thain's face looked extremely tired, because he suddenly found that he had a desperate feeling. He knows very well that he has actually entered a dead end. There is almost no way to crack this game right now. Although it seems that he has the advantage, in fact, as time goes by, his advantage will only get smaller and smaller, until Finally, there is no ability to resist.

"Report!"

   Just then, a rough roar suddenly interrupted Thain’s thoughts.

"What's up?"

  "The enemy army has abandoned the camp and evacuated towards the northwest."

"What?" Thain was taken aback. At this moment, he immediately understood that the other party must have received the news that Turnkey and Taylor had died and that the Second Cavalry Regiment of Darbion had withdrawn from the war. "Immediately Order, the whole army will attack!"

   Soon, Thain’s order spread to all corners of the entire barracks, and a group of soldiers immediately began to assemble, and then followed his captain and left the barracks.

  This time, the army moved very fast, and they chose to attack without even cleaning up the camp.

Such an eager march made other people in the army secretly speculate, but under the constraints of their respective captains, the army has always maintained a marching formation. From this point of view alone, it is also possible to see the basic strength of this army. The foundation is still there, not as bad as the outside world imagined. It's just that since it's a rapid march, it will definitely have some impact on physical strength, especially if the rapid march lasts for a long time, it will even have an impact on the army's combat effectiveness.

   But right now, even if he knew these issues, Thain had no choice.

  Because once William and Steel Wings are brought together, Thain knows that it is impossible for him to beat the opponent by himself. What's more, he didn't believe that someone as cunning as William would prevent the Thunder Lion from giving up his original offensive goal and rushing to his side. When the time comes, if he is caught up by the Thunder Lion, then he will be surrounded by the front and back flanks.

  For this, no matter what price he pays, he must take down William as the coach!

  Fortunately, this kind of extremely wasteful rush march did not last long. Only three hours later, Thain had caught up with William's coach.

  The two sides encountered each other on a mountain.

  As soon as he saw the opponent's army, Thain immediately calmed down. He did not order to move on. Instead, he let the army set up a formation and began to rest on the spot. The three-hour rush march has actually begun to affect the combat effectiveness of the army, so if the army is not allowed to regain its strength, then once fighting breaks out in a while, even if he has 10,000 people, it will not help.

   However, almost when the entire army began to rest in place, Thain always felt that the situation seemed a bit wrong.

  Because he discovered that the strength of William’s coach’s army seemed to be less than he had imagined.

  But who are missing?

Thain's brows frowned. He knew that he was still a little anxious this time, and he didn't send a scout ranger in front, but since the situation is already like this, it is useless to regret it. It is better to calm down and solve this. A battle.

  Since twice the number of troops can’t fit your army, this time five times the army depends on how you fight!

  Almost just when this thought emerged, Thain’s face changed instantly!

  Because he knew who the missing soldiers were.

  Rena and her cavalry unit! (To be continued.)
