People's ideals and behaviors also follow this principle: what is meaningful to others is meaningful.

– Alfred Adler (Austrian psychologist)

After marching north for two and a half hours from three o'clock in the afternoon, the Parthian archers, who were exploring the way ahead, found a large number of orc troops on the periphery of the third main fortress, and the total number of orc warriors would never be less than 300,000!

Bai Feng and Marquis Longdstead, who decided to lead their troops to the north to rescue friendly forces, had already been mentally prepared for this; since the orc army surrounding the fourth main fortress was as high as 300,000, and there were wolf riders appearing, the orc army surrounding the other main fortresses would naturally not be less than 300,000.

Nightfall is the sharpest weapon that Bai Feng and Marquis of Rundstead use against the orc army, and almost every warrior has an orc army with severe night blindness, and it is impossible to fight at night, which is the biggest advantage of the imperial army.

If it was in daytime, it would be impossible for the 500,000 Imperial army to defeat the 300,000 orc army, after all, the difference in strength between the soldiers of the two sides was there, and without the fortress and the mage to rely on, the Imperial army was no match for the orc army.

If it was at night, not to mention an army of 300,000 orcs, or an army of 1 million orcs, Bai Feng was confident that he would lead an army of 100,000 to completely defeat the other party, because he only needed to lead the army to disrupt the formation of the orc army, and he could let the orc army in chaos kill each other.

The orc army, which is also well aware of its own shortcomings, never attacks Sunset Fortress at night, and it is not only human instinct to play to their strengths and avoid weaknesses, but will the orc army, which has changed from attacker to defender, take the initiative to avoid the outbreak of night battles?

The report of the Parthian archers did not interrupt the advance of the battle group, and it was half past five in the afternoon, and the rising sun of the whole day was gradually turning into a sunset, and the brilliant and colorful sunset illuminated the blue sky into a beautiful light red, and the dusk was slowly falling.

Hans's Seventh Wing, the vanguard of the battle group, was followed by the Iron Guard, which had been rebuilt by Shame, and when Leonardo's First Brigade discovered the traces of the orc army, the huge orc army retreated directly east without a fight.

In the previous breakout battle, the 300,000 orc army withdrew from the battle after only about 50,000 casualties, but now the two armies meet, and the orc army, which is also 300,000 in size, is so unusually unconventional that it withdraws from the encirclement of the third main fortress without even a tentative confrontation.

Although Bai Feng didn't know what the commander of the orc army was having, he knew that the other party's every move must have other plans; otherwise, how could the fierce and warlike orc army take the initiative to withdraw again and again?

Bai Feng, who lacked intelligence support, could not judge the purpose of the commander of the orc army, so he could only take a step by step to implement his original plan with the Marquis of Rundstede;

Half an hour later, the 50,000 soldiers of the battle cluster had completely controlled the outer area of the Third Main Fortress, and the Fire Legion, the 39th Legion, and the Fortieth Legion had successfully arrived near the 3rd Main Fortress.

With the cover of the falling night, the defenders of the third main fortress, who were hurrying to evacuate the fortress, could not discover the existence of the Spartan legions, and with the Marquis of Rundstead personally intervening, the Duke of Reinhardt did not hesitate to lead his army to join the breakout army.

It was almost seven o'clock when the Praetorian Legion, the Twenty-third Legion, the Twenty-sixth Legion, the Thirty-seventh Legion, and the Thirty-eighth Legion in the Third Main Fortress withdrew from the fortress one after another.

The 3rd Legion, with the Praetorian Legion as the core, advanced north behind the Flame Legion, and the 39th and 40th Legions, which also took on the task of helping them take care of the wounded, and the presence of a large number of wounded soldiers slowed down the advance of the large army.

According to the plan, the breakout army would arrive at the second main fortress under the command of the Duke of Kleist at eleven o'clock in the evening, and in fact, it was not until half past twelve o'clock at midnight that the seventh wing, which was the vanguard of the whole army, could not reach the second main fortress.

Perhaps the commander of the orc army had long expected the purpose of Bai Feng to lead the army north, and there was not a single soldier of the orc army on the periphery of the second main fortress; this time, the imperial army and the orc army did not even fight each other, and rescued the defenders of the second main fortress.

With the Storm Legion as the core and the 22nd, 31st, 32nd, 35th, and 36th Army Corps as the auxiliary, it took more than an hour for the second main fortified garrison to evacuate the fortress;

"Your Excellency Duke, didn't Sophia follow you to Sunset Fortress, why didn't I see her in the retreating army?"

Duke Kleist, who had a few more strands of gray hair on his head, heard Bai Feng's greeting to Sophia, and barely showed a smile on his face that was more ugly than crying, before replying: "A month ago, I sent her to escort the wounded soldiers to the province of Nice, and asked her to stay there to take care of the wounded soldiers. ”

"I see!" Bai Feng, who was determined in his heart, changed his words and said: "Duke, you are the commander of the second main army of tens of thousands of people, and you are one of the commanders of the empire's future counterattack against the orcs;

"You ......" Duke Kleist, who had just looked at Bai Feng with admiration earlier, was a little moved in his heart at this moment, he didn't say anything, just patted Bai Feng's shoulder hard, and then rode straight forward on his horse.

The slow pace of the march made the time pass little by little, and when the first rays of fish belly white appeared in the eastern sky, it was already more than five o'clock in the morning, and the breakout army was nearly two hours away from the first main Cézanne!

At this time, if the breakout army continues to move north, it is very likely that it will be surrounded by the orc army; what do others think Bai Feng doesn't know, at least Bai Feng himself doesn't believe that the commander of the orc army will sit back and watch his hundreds of thousands of troops retreat to the rear of the empire.

Unbeknownst to everyone, Prince Sainsbury, who commanded the orc army, had already given the order to avoid the battle last night, and he did not want to let his soldiers pay unnecessary casualties after winning the victory, after all, the number of warriors in the orc empire was limited.

With a total population of more than one billion, the Celestial Dragon Empire can raise another 100,000, million, or even millions of troops at any time, and as long as the Celestial Dragon Empire's treasury has enough gold coins, the Celestial Dragon Empire's army can continue to go to the battlefield.

The orc empire, which has a vast and sparsely populated territory, is not good, and the orc empire, with a total population of only tens of millions, has already the limit of sending two million soldiers; the death of more than 500,000 orc warriors is a heavy blow to the orc empire.

Therefore, after the breakout army commanded by Bai Feng yesterday killed and injured 50,000 soldiers of the orc army, the distressed Prince Sainsbury directly ordered the whole army to retreat;

Ten minutes before 8 a.m., the breakout army reached the first main fortress, and the Duke of Gerner and Duke Albert led the defenders of the fortress to join the breakout army. The breakout army then turned around and retreated to the northwest.
