Chapter 105: The Battle Situation
"Boom!"
With the launch of the rune attack, the ground suddenly trembled violently, and the entire space shook for a while, and huge rocks continued to fall in the sky, rumbling on the rune shield, and the black light curtain rippled, like a candle flame swaying in the wind.
The commanders were also out of shape at this time, and they didn't expect that launching a siege rune would cause such a huge reaction. Fortunately, the defense work was done in the early stage, so that the soldiers did not fall into a large-scale panic.
However, the infantry that supported the rune shields were not so lucky, although the rune shields withstood most of the attacks from the boulders, but even so, the huge impact force still made those soldiers blood surge one by one, and their faces flushed, obviously suffering from minor internal injuries.
"Everyone, hurry, defend yourself!" Just after a wave of boulders fell, before the soldiers could catch their breath, the commanders in the front row had already noticed that something was wrong.
Although they all only have an average strength of more than 20 levels, as awakened ones, they are beyond the keen vision of ordinary people, even in the dark, they are still better than those ordinary soldiers, and they saw that something was wrong at the first time.
Above them, boulders the size of small houses rolled through the fog and fell directly in front of them like meteorites falling from the sky.
If these soldiers could see through the fog, they would have fled back in fright. Because at this time, a huge crater was pierced by siege runes on the top of the mountain, and the rock that originally supported the mountain rock was already crumbling, but it was stuck because of the structure like an architectural bump.
But at this moment, because the small stones below gradually rolled down, causing a huge cavity in the fault rock above, even if it has not been smashed down yet, as long as a few slightly larger stones below are falling, then the next thing those soldiers will face is no longer a boulder, but a hill that is almost half of the cliff.
No matter how strong those charging runes are, they can only die down in the event of such a natural disaster, even if the shield formed by the rune shield is not broken, it is impossible for these soldiers below to withstand the huge weight, and they will all be crushed into flesh.
Ron sighed and turned to leave. Once a war starts, it is always the ordinary people at the bottom who will suffer the most.
At the same time as Ron left, there was a deafening loud rumble behind him, and many soldiers were buried alive under the huge collapse before they had time to scream, and then all kinds of wails and shouts resounded continuously, at this time there was no need for Ron to do anything more, those soldiers had no intention of attacking, and fled at the exit of the frenzied exchange, many soldiers were pushed to the ground in the escape, and then never stood again
Get up too.
The mighty army of 20,000 ended with the loss of nearly half of the troops and the death of all four commanders.
......
"Good!"
In the makeshift camp, in front of a huge sand table, teachers and royals of a kind of academy gathered here, nervously looking at the images coming from the tracing crystal.
When he saw Ron slaughtering 20,000 troops in a daze, a royal nobleman couldn't help but cry out.
It has only been a total of one day since Sean was officially appointed by Ron to take full command of the battle, but Ron first started with 30 students of the academy defeating 10,000 elite cavalry and capturing the local commander Andy alive, and ended with a plan to kill 20,000 enemy infantry.
Everything made everyone here no longer dare to look down on Ron because of his youth, and even gave birth to a trace of admiration.
The teachers of the major colleges had different expressions, and of course, they were the happiest to touch Macbeth from Cologne College. Although the other teachers were envious, they could only sigh helplessly in the end.
Before many people could discuss for long, the curtain of the tent was lifted, and a herald ran in.
According to the report, 22 students of the college were slightly injured, 3 were seriously injured, and none of them died. The Order of the Guards suffered 88 wounded and 17 killed. Lord Baron Otis was mortally wounded and still unconscious...... "The herald has reported all the details of the situation so far. Although he was only an insignificant herald, he still couldn't hide the shock in his heart when he reported the data. What kind of commander can fight such a beautiful war?
Listening to the herald's report, Sean waved his hand and motioned for the herald to stand down.
"Don't be too happy, everyone, the battle has just begun. You should have heard the news from the herald earlier, and Ron said that tomorrow's battle is crucial, and I believe that everyone should not be afraid to fight when the time comes. ”
Sean's expression was quite serious, not that he was unhappy with Ron's victory, but that he was really unhappy with the news he had just received.
As soon as communication with the outside world was resumed, Sean spread the news to the imperial city. It's just that what he waited for for a long time turned out to be a big bad news.
The Holy Capital was breached, the National Teacher's Mansion suffered heavy casualties, Bradney's life and death were unknown, and the whereabouts of the prince and queen were unknown.
I don't know if it's a message delivered by risking death, but the communication rune has not moved since receiving this message.
At this moment, Sean's mood can be good, then there is a ghost. However, he knows what the overall situation is, even if the Holy Capital has fallen, he still has the means to turn the tables, at least here he can't announce the news, otherwise he doesn't dare to guarantee everything here
People can still persevere with one heart.
Everyone thought that Sean was worried about tomorrow's last battle, but they didn't think much about it, and said that they would not disappoint the king tomorrow.
Without waiting for those royalty and nobles to show their loyalty, the door curtain was lifted again. Ron walked into the tent with a little tiredness.
Macbeth was the first to greet him and asked with concern, "Are you alright?"
Ron waved his hand and said, "It's fine. It's just that the energy is a little overdepleted, and it would be good to take a break later. ”
"You've done a great job. Macbeth patted Ron on the shoulder and smiled. This is simply the pride of Cologne Academy, and he now likes Ron in his heart.
"Your Majesty, I don't know how the follow-up preparations were?" Ron was indeed a little tired, and the high-intensity fighting and coordination made him never rest from morning to now.
"It's all set up according to your requirements, but is it really okay to do this? You remove the fog circle outside, isn't it obvious that there are traps inside? How do you know that they will definitely go deep, with such a huge loss of 30,000 people in the vanguard army, will they still rush in stupidly?" Sean said with some unease.
"Be of good cheer, King. The foreshadowing we had done was enough for them to consciously step into our trap. Seeing that everyone was still a little confused, Ron smiled and continued, "Actually, this matter is very simple, the vanguard army first lost 10,000 elite cavalry with the assistance of rune masters, and then 20,000 infantry although not all killed, but also suffered heavy losses. The total strength of the Chinese army is 120,000, such a powerful force, if the vanguard army does not find a field, then even those soldiers below will not agree. Once you are afraid of not fighting, it is definitely a crime to disturb the morale of the army. So even if someone can see that we will definitely not be kind to open the door wide, they can only rush in. ”
Listening to Ron's words, Sean touched his chin with one hand and scratched his head in thought.
"According to my observation and understanding, the forces in the Eastern Regions are by no means monolithic, and among them, the Lord of Bahaya Travia is the most powerful and domineering. Whether it is the vanguard or the Chinese army, the leaders are all Bahayas. And the other five ancient cities in the Eastern Regions Alliance are forces, and they will definitely not sit back and watch Bahaya become stronger, so there will definitely be no shortage of things to secretly make stumbling blocks and tricks in this battle. Especially when the opponent's 10,000 elite cavalry was wiped out, and the commander Andy was nowhere to be found, the five ancient cities still had a faint advantage, and they would definitely give priority to the consumption of Bahaya's army. Naturally, this is what we would love to see. ”
Ron had a trademark smile on his lips, but in the eyes of others, Ron smiled treacherously, like a little fox secretly watching his prey.
