Chapter 1365: The Last Request
At this time, in the Locke Kingdom, there are only people who have the strength to come here to snoop.
After receiving Chigil's report, Locke and Chigill exchanged a few polite words about his reward for the future, and then led the troops and quietly slipped nearby.
When he saw the fighting between Kucha Khan's troops and the border garrison under Kuoper Rosen, Locke's heart was happy.
Now, outside the camp, it has become a hell-like existence. But even so, Locke was not in a hurry. He just led the troops, more than a thousand meters from the battlefield, and spied on this place from a distance.
After the battle between the two sides had become anxious, Locke finally gave the first order. But instead of attacking, the forces were dispersed, and they slowly detoured from a distance, encircling everyone in the entire battlefield in their own encirclement.
In the entire Locke Kingdom, people who can pose a threat to his throne are concentrated here. Another legitimate heir, Kucha Khan, as well as several chiefs of the border garrison, are now here. As long as no one here is killed, then there will be no one to shake the position of the king of the Rock Kingdom after that.
As time passed, Cooper Rosen suddenly stopped, and then quietly moved towards the diagonal back with a few people.
Although the number of troops stationed on the border has been reduced to less than 20,000, the troops under Kucha Khan are less than 13,000 or so.
And this is not a positional war, it is a disguised encounter, and by now, the two sides have long been out of bullets.
The people of the 30,000 have already begun to fight at this time. In this way, the advantage of a large number of troops stationed on the border manifested itself. Although by virtue of the superiority in individual combat strength, some exercise armies can quickly defeat their opponents when they are single-handed. But this is a battlefield, and it is very easy to beat the master to death.
Compared to gunfights, white-knuckle battles are obviously more brutal. In ancient times, the proportion of casualties was so large that many soldiers were actually not killed by the enemy, but by their own people who had already killed the red eyes.
Although people represent civilization, there is still a ferocity in their bones. Soldiers, as one of the groups that represent human ferocity, are also the place where ferocity is most likely to appear.
And now in the white-knuckle battle, that's it. Many soldiers are killed to the end, because they regard everyone around them as enemies, and as long as they are close to them, they will subconsciously identify them as their enemies.
Cooper Rosen saw that the two closest soldiers under his command had fought for a long time, and they had directly slashed each other! If it weren't for the fact that both of them were very good at fighting, and because the fight had been going on for a while, if the battle could not be fought for a long time, people's minds would gradually become clearer. In the end, the two finally gave up after seeing the appearance of the person who was fighting with them.
Although Cooper Rosen has lived for so long, and the time he has spent in the army, it is not too short. But after all, because the fighting strength of the Rock Kingdom itself is not very high, and it has been a long time, although there have been a lot of internal strife in the Rock Kingdom, there are not many external troubles. So although it was a high-ranking member of the border garrison, Cooper Rosen had not seen such a bloody scene for a long time.
At this time, after seeing the scene of flesh and blood flying and severed limbs everywhere, Cooper Rosen suddenly had a fear in his heart!
Yes, he was scared.
No matter how tempting the existence is, high positions, beautiful women, money, if you don't have the life to enjoy it, no matter how tempting things are, they are just a passing moment.
When he didn't know how many people's blood was spilled on his body, Cooper Rosen still felt that he was fighting on the battlefield to earn prestige. It was not a wise choice for him, who was already in his sixties.
Although his strength is still there, although his ability is still there, but after all, old is old. There are some things that you can't do if you don't accept them.
It's like now, although most of the time, he is protected by everyone, although most of the time, he just needs to take a gun and shoot at the enemy in the distance, and that's it.
But just such a simple thing, after an hour or so, Cooper Rosen already felt a little exhausted. And now, the soldiers on both sides have completely mixed up. Even if Cooper Rosen is protected in the middle, at this time, he occasionally needs to fight a few times with a red-eyed soldier.
If it was at a young age, Cooper Rosen would not be afraid. But now, he's really old, just like Chuck. Although time has brought them more and more wisdom, it has also taken away their energy and physical strength, as well as their sharpness.
Seeing the people around him who were protecting him, being pulled aside by more and more soldiers who were red-eyed, rolling directly on the ground to catch and fight, this kind of scene, Cooper Rosen really had enough of seeing it, and he was also afraid. What he wants most now is nothing but to get out of here as soon as possible, to leave this place that even Allah does not want to be attached to.
Taking advantage of the inattention of the people around him, Cooper Rosen took the few remaining soldiers around him and gradually retreated towards the diagonal rear.
There are also Locke's troops directly behind, and if they collide, he, the mastermind, will definitely not be able to escape. In fact, let alone escape, whether Locke will give himself a chance to be judged at that time is two words!
On the way out, Cooper Rosen bumped into several other men. In addition to Chigil, who had fled to Locke's side, there were two other people who could not go back completely. They accidentally rushed too deep, so in the end, their own soldiers were directly pulled out by the soldiers of Kucha Khan's troops, and the group was besieged in the middle, and then the two people were also killed by the soldiers of Kucha Khan, who were red-eyed.
"Alas......" Not long ago, they were still in high spirits, delusionally thinking that with the forces in their hands, they could control the direction of the country, and even become the masters of the country.
But now it seems that they still overestimate their own abilities after all, and they underestimate the strength of Kucha Khan and Locke too much. Just these two young men, who are nearly twenty years younger than them, are stunned to brush these veterans who have entered the ranks of the elderly!
Although he was very unwilling in his heart, he became a king and lost a king, since he had failed, no matter how unwilling he was, he could only accept it helplessly.
glanced at each other, and they both saw the unwillingness, helplessness, and regret in each other's eyes.
Regret is certain, if they honestly stay at the border and do nothing. Don't participate in the battle between Kucha Khan and Locke, in the end, whether the winner is Locke or Kucha Khan, the winner needs to curry favor with their nominal courtiers.
But now, his own troops are almost fighting with Kucha Khan's troops. Even if you can really win in the end, when the time comes, it is tantamount to a fool's dream to defeat Locke with such a few remnants.
Don't talk about it, just say that now, if they can escape back to the border and go to their own territory. At that time, everything can still go and do it again, of course, this again, not to fight with Locke and Kucha Khan again, but to rely on the strength in his own hands to straighten his waist again and negotiate with Locke or Kucha Khan again.
Even if you can't get much benefit, at least you have to get some convenience, right?
However, looking at the situation today, Kucha Khan's troops are almost desperate. In the end, a group of people participated in the political competition, and the final winner was the youngest one!
"I'm still getting old after all. After finally evacuating from the battlefield, Cooper Rosen looked at the battlefield in the distance, and then shook his head helplessly.
"yes, you're old enough to be involved in this kind of thing anymore. Suddenly, a playful voice came from the side, and immediately after, there were hundreds of people, and soon there were hundreds of people, surrounding Cooper Rosen and his own soldiers, who together were no more than thirty people.
"Who?" Cooper Rosen exclaimed, startled.
But as soon as he shouted, he couldn't help but want to slap himself.
Now participating in the internal struggle in the Locke Kingdom are a total of three forces - Kucha Khan, Locke, and several of them. Kucha Khan's side is fighting with his own people, and he will definitely not be able to pull away.
So who else can come and besiege him now, but Locke?
"Huh...... Admiral Cooper Rosen, hello, long time no see, your granddaughter, are you alright?" Locke's way of greeting was obviously different from the others'. However, this is also his favorite way to greet the merry prince.
Although it was his disguise at the beginning, but now, he is a king and a loser, and it is nothing to greet Cooper Rosen like this. After all, this is a royal battle, the winner is king, and the loser is the villain. As the victorious side, you can dispose of all the things of the loser's side at will. Whether it's property, or their family.
Of course, it was the young women of their family who Locke preferred to dispose of.
"I'm too old to be useful. When Cooper Rosen was about to make a move, the soldiers under Locke, who surrounded them, raised their guns in unison.
Although the soldiers of the Rock Kingdom are poor in combat effectiveness, they can still shoot accurately at such a close distance.
"So what?" said Locke, with a playful laugh.
"Locke, you win, we lose. As a loser, there should have been no qualification. But I still hope that for the sake of sacrificing my life for the Rock Kingdom, you will spare my family. ”
……
Today's three watches, after all, happy holidays.

Let's cheer me on, everyone!
