Chapter 257: March
However, things often do not turn towards people's good intentions. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ Info Mr. Welling's forces did encounter the routs that had fled. Immediately after the routs were taken aback, the idea of getting these little men to the king arose. As a result, it became clear that there was a conflict.
Dozens of soldiers were routed, but more than two dozen were killed, and more than fifty escaped. Of course, more than 100 of Welin's mercenaries were killed and more than 300 wounded, which means that the entire mercenary regiment was abolished. The battle loss rate is already almost half, and it is really hard to say what combat effectiveness these mercenaries have.
In addition to the casualties, two helicopters were shot down, and ten tanks were scrapped. The remaining number of tanks is less than six. There are also thirty-two helicopters. The ammunition would only last them two more times in such a conflict and they would run out, which was why Mr. Welling's hair was gray.
Obviously, even if the Giant Kingdom is still in a backward social system and still uses ancient cold weapons, then the losses they suffer are unbearable. Their most urgent wish at the moment is to find the place of the Rainbow Bridge as soon as possible. This land of giants is really not where they should be, and the original plan must be adjusted.
However, the giant creatures of the Giant Nation and the genes of the human body were acquired by the biologists who brought them. The purpose of further cracking the secret of the longevity of the giants of the land of giants has been achieved. Now we must get out of here as soon as possible. The address of the base camp had to be demolished and all the material was taken with it.
"I wonder where Dr. Larsen is now?" Mr. Welling, who was sitting in the back seat of a military SUV, suddenly asked Marina who was sitting in the passenger seat. This made Marina a little stunned, since Emilia had left the camp with little mention of this person.
"I want to ...... Life must be difficult!" Marina said cautiously, "Maybe they are dead, not necessarily, when they meet these giant warriors, they have no power to resist at all, unlike us ......" It's just the latter words, I'm embarrassed to say it, I have the power to resist, but I have suffered heavy losses.
"Send a scout team, if you can find them, that's the best, whatever their purpose is to separate from us, but...... I don't think we can abandon them. Working together...... It's the best. Mr. Welling sighed and stopped talking.
Still, Marina was a little surprised, and forgave them like that?well, she had to do what she was told, so she found a place to stop, got out of the car, and went to Lieutenant Colonel Hank, the commander of the mercenaries, and conveyed Mr. Welling's orders to him.
Lieutenant Colonel Hank didn't say anything, but the look on his face showed that he was quite happy to do it. Everyone in the mercenaries knows that that very cute little girl is a very powerful character, even the huge black dragon can be injured, and can kill those huge creatures. With her joining, she can only improve the strength of the declining mercenaries and smoothly get out of the giant country.
What's more, they also have an expert guide who is familiar with this place, Dr. Emilia Larsen. So Lieutenant Colonel Hank was more than happy to carry out this task. So he sent two helicopters to conduct a larger search. The entire team continued to follow the clues left by Emilia's notes.
A bird hovered in the air, and under the canopy, the bird spread its wings, crossed the high hills, swept over the treetops of the mountain forest, flew over the forest of swords and guns, and the "rumbling" cavalry, and then rushed into the sky with its head up.
A general on a war horse put his hand on a pergola, looked at the bird that had disappeared into the clouds, and then rode forward, the officers in front of him shouting loudly, urging the troops to move forward. An officer rode his horse and galloped over, walked up to the general, stopped, and reported in a loud voice: "General, we are not far from the rebel village. It can be reached in half a day, at the current pace of the march. β
The general nodded: "Continue the march, we will reach our destination before dark." Follow the plan and pinch from three ways!
"Yes, General!" the officer replied loudly, and then galloped through the ranks, loudly relaying the general's orders, and the ranks began to divide into three groups, encircling the village in different directions.
In the blue sky, a bird rushed down from the clouds, and this majestic eagle, in front of these giants, was like a small bird. The eagle had already landed on Jia Huan's shoulder, and then disappeared. They were not surprised by these things, but felt that this was where they depended.
The power of God also sustains their will. Therefore, the twelve leaders led by Mu De all looked nervously at Jia Huan and Emilia standing at the round table, and they were ready around the round table. On the other side, there are Anne and Emilia's assistants who are protected, as well as Garil and others. They also looked nervously at the group of giants and Jia Huan and.
"An army of at least five thousand men divided into three directions to surround us. Jia Huan explained to the giants through the translator Emilia, "It seems that they have left a gap through which we can escape and jump out of their encirclement." Jia Huan tried his best to draw a huge schematic diagram on the round table.
These giants understood it and nodded quickly. Mu De shook his head suspiciously and said, "Mr. Jia, if we can get out of the encirclement, what will be the result after that?"
Jia Huan nodded appreciatively, and continued to translate through Emilia and said, "Yes, this is their intention, let us jump out of the encirclement, just to make us tired and have no intention of fighting." Therefore, it is impossible for us to organize any decent resistance when we escape, and we can only be hunted down and killed along the way. Know that the last of you has fallen. β
Mu De nodded, and then said: "He gave us a psychological hint to escape, that is, he wanted us to collapse without a fight, and finally win easily, although the process was a little longer, but it was the most beneficial way for them." So...... We should have our way, not what they tell us to do, we just do it!"
"So what do we do?" Mu had to have a brain, but after all, he didn't have a lot of combat experience, so he couldn't figure out what to do. I could only look at Jia Huan and say, "Please Mr. Jia help us!" He stood up and bowed respectfully to Jia Huan.
The other eleven people also stood up and bowed towards Jia Huan. They expressed their requests to Jia Huan very sincerely. Jia Huan nodded and looked at Emilia next to her. Emilia nodded at him as well. Jia Huan said, "That's why I asked you to pile up the dead grass and wood in the village. β
This time Mud and the rest were silent. Yes, if you want to win, the price is essential, and what they are about to pay now is a heavy price. But there is no way to do it, and only this way seems to have a better chance of winning.
There is also the issue of time. Mu had to ask Jia Huan. Jia Huan just smiled slightly and said, "Now that the decision has been made, I can guarantee that they will definitely not arrive before the evening." Get ready, get your men ready, especially the archers. Mude, here's what you have to do. β
Seeing what Jia Huan said, Mu De put down his heart, and then said to the people around him: "Let's start acting, remember, we have no turning back, we can only get everything if we give everything." β
Once the decision is made, Mude's execution is very in place and very bold. It took less than two hours to evacuate from the village. They took everything they could. All that was left of the village was the haystacks, timber and grease that could ignite everything. There were not many people in the village, plus the previous lumberjacks, a total of more than 1,300 people, marching towards the woods.
The last seven hundred men lay in ambush in the woods, at the only gap, waiting for the arrival of the king's army not far away. It must be a desperate battle to save the current crisis. Everyone held their breath and waited for the night to fall. It seemed like a long time, but Mude waited very firmly.
And at this time, the sky was still relatively clear in the afternoon. The sunlight was dazzling, making many of the marching soldiers feel tired. So some people marched on the side in order to replenish their dry rations. There are all kinds of food they eat, and they all brought out the food they brought out when they went out on the expedition.
"It's damn weather. One of the soldiers grumbled quietly, and just as the words fell, he heard the sound of the air being cut. There was a "bang", then a crunch, and a whip fell from the air and struck the soldier in the face, and an officer on horseback looked at him condescendingly.
"Don't make noise during the march!" the officer shouted a loud reprimand, and suddenly the soldier, not even daring to touch the wound, crooked his mouth. Silently endured all this. The officer was satisfied with the way he had handled it, and he was able to be satisfied by silencing the soldiers.
When the officer left, one of the soldiers next to him lowered his voice and said, "Matthias, that bastard will be punished sooner or later." Hopefully, the lumberjacks will give him an arrow. β
The soldier, Matthias, did not speak, but his eyes were full of rage. Yes, those damned officers will only wag their tails and beg for mercy in front of the nobles, but they will be fierce and vicious in front of them. They will be punished. What the hell is driving them to war now!
While on the march, General Hall was calculating how to achieve his victory. Suddenly, the officer from before came again and said, "General, our troops will be divided into three directions and attack the enemy, and we will have about an hour to reach the enemy's village." Now the sun is estimated to be two or three hours away. β
The officer's words made General Hall smile at the corner of his mouth, but he still didn't lose his temper. Because he was not an arrogant man, he knew very well that the lumberjacks who could wipe out the thousand men of General Gesim were no ordinary lumberjacks. They are a group of soldiers with strong fighting power.
"Speed up the march and get to the battlefield as soon as possible. General Hall gave the order again, "I will begin our attack in forty minutes." So saying, he moved his finger and motioned for the officer to give the order.
"Orderβspeed up the march!" the voices of orders were heard in the ranks. The soldiers were already tired, especially those on foot. But the military order had already been issued, and they did not dare to disobey, so they could only move forward desperately, gritting their teeth. Even people like Matthias, who was relatively strong, were soaked with sweat on their backs.
"Damn, damn it, I'm going to die here!" the soldier next to Matthias who had spoken to him grumbled in a very low voice, his steps staggering.
"I'll help you, Eddie. We will not die here, nor will we die on the battlefield. Matthias took the soldier by the arm with one hand. Pull him forward and keep walking. If it is a little slower, the leather whip will fall back, and even if it is covered, it cannot make a scream, and can only endure it silently.
Half an hour passed, and even the outline of the village could be seen in front. This made everyone relax. Yes, the destination is almost there. It only takes a few more minutes to reach the village and start their slaughter. At least that's what the officers thought.
But suddenly, the sun in the sky seemed to be obscured by dark clouds, and the white light on the ground dimmed, like a premonition before a rainstorm, and under the gloomy sky, streams of white mist slowly emerged from the trees, like air condensed by cold air.
All the soldiers were trapped in an instant. The fog came suddenly, and all of a sudden, and spread all around quickly, and the visibility was no more than an arm's throw away. This caused the soldiers who were still marching to lose their direction all of a sudden, and suddenly they became a mess, and shouts and cries of terror were heard everywhere.
In the woods, Jia Huan picked up a pen with one hand and kept smearing it in the air, and then it became a piece of mist, which quickly spread in the air. The whole land was so foggy that nothing could be seen.
Mude's heart kept churning, yes, Mr. Jia is too powerful. This battle, even if they pay a huge price, they will definitely win, as long as Mr. Jia is there. Not only him, but everyone who was ambushed here looked at the figure in the mist with reverent eyes like looking at the gods. Even some people don't see it at all. The small, tiny one who permeated the white mist!
