In front of him was arguably the most difficult withdrawal in history, because his opponent was the Paz army of Basbarn and the famous and powerful Palch army, and it was undoubtedly an impossible task to take hundreds of thousands of Frankish troops in the gap of this pair of pincers.

And Deguzorf's approach is simple and straightforward, that is, to lose the pawn and protect the car. Since it is impossible to take the entire army, it is necessary to face the choice of leaving a part of the army, and the army that is left behind is almost equivalent to being sentenced to death. This is very cruel, but it is a helpless thing, and as a military commander, he will inevitably face this choice.

This decision made by Draguzorff surprised future generations, because the pawn he lost and the car he kept were beyond the concept of ordinary people. Generally speaking, when withdrawing troops, a force will be left behind, and this army will face a full-scale attack by most enemy troops, and most of them will end up in the end of the whole army, and this palace army will be exchanged for the precious opportunity for the main army to retreat. But Deguzorf didn't do this, and the car he wanted to keep was not the main force of the Frankish army, but the soul of the Frankish army - a large number of knights. Compared with ordinary soldiers, the amount of training received by the knights in peacetime is incomparable to that of soldiers, and the better living conditions of the knights compared to the common people make their quality superior to that of civilians in all aspects, so that their overall combat quality far exceeds that of ordinary soldiers. The Knights of the Holy Hammer, who grew up only in the war against Paz, were the best of the knightly class, and their terrifying fighting abilities were impressive. It is this elite force that Dguzolf wants to keep.

The advantages of Deguzorff's approach are as follows: first, the number of knights is relatively small, and the number of knights in Frank's entire army is only about 17,000 people, and even if a force of this size acts, it will be regarded by the enemy as a feint force and will not pay too much attention, so they have more favorable conditions to break through the enemy army and get rid of the enemy army; Secondly, these knights all have their own mounts, and they are also the highest in the Frank army in terms of mobility; Third, the breakthrough ability of this army is also the strongest in the army; Finally, and most importantly, as long as the force can return home safely, Frank will soon be able to rebuild a large army with this force as the backbone.

Correspondingly, Deguzolf regarded the remaining 200,000 troops as the palace army. In the face of such a large army, the enemy army will definitely have the illusion that the main force of the other side is still under their control, and they will gather all their strength to encircle and suppress this army, and even have to be determined to fight a head-on battle with such a large army. And the soldiers in this army will not have the consciousness that they are the palace army, they will think that they are the real main force, and they can better maintain their morale.

Another important reason why Deguzorf's bold and ruthless plan was successful was that he included himself and many of the Vlac kings and lords in the palace army. For it was only when the generals and kings were still in the army that the soldiers were sure that they had not been abandoned. The kings and lords of Frank had always believed that Deguzorff had mobilized almost all of his knights to fight together in order to form a powerful commando force in search of a breakthrough on the battlefield. Even the knights themselves did not learn the true purpose of their actions until they had left their team for quite some time.

In this way, Deguzorf deceived all his opponents and his own people, and unwittingly reserved a valuable combat unit for Frank. And he himself led Frank's army to fight and walk, constantly breaking through the encirclement and interception of the Paz army and the Palci army, and retreating westward step by step.

Of course, the Pac Army and the Palch Army were not good men and women, they saw the large and slowly retreating Frank army, like a pack of wolves with wounded bulls, and every step back of the Frank army was accompanied by the loss of human life, thanks to the skillful use of Derguzorff's troops, they barely managed to maintain the formation of the Frank army from collapsing, and the Frank army gritted its teeth and continued to insist on marching towards its own territory. The road to Frank from the village of Nisher was almost covered with the corpses of Frank's soldiers, and more than 60,000 people remained in the foreign land forever. However, this was not the end of the nightmare of the Franks, as it seemed to be fate, and in the vicinity of Gulabarcia, where Paswan's cavalry commander Arantrán was killed, the Franks were finally intercepted by Senas's own army.

A network of crossfires of bows, crossbows, and firebolts, combined with the fortifications already built by the Palci army, the massive Frankish army was bound to be smashed to the head as if it were naked against a stone wall. Even more tragic is that none of the Franks have ever seen the power of crossbows and firebolts, and they still use their shields to defend against bows and arrows, and they only realize their mistake when they are pierced by the projectiles of crossbows and firebolts, but it is too late.

Seeing a large number of soldiers being swept down like chopping vegetables, Frank's generals were stunned. They also don't know what this terrifying weapon of the enemy is, let alone how to deal with it. The only thing they could do was to spread their team as far as possible to reduce the chance of being hit, but then the team's assault strength was greatly reduced, and instead of rushing forward, the Franks were killed and wounded and corpses all over the place.

Hearing that the advance at the front was not strong, Dguzorf, who had been blocking the pursuit of the enemy in the rear, had to rush over. But when he saw the scene in front of him, his reaction was really not much better than that of other generals. After all, Deguzorf was not a fairy, he could not figure out the secrets and weaknesses of a weapon he had never seen before, and in the face of such a ferocious weapon of the enemy army, Deguzorf hesitated for a minute.

"Don't let the soldiers go to death again," after a short period of distraction, Deguzorf finally regained his composure: "It is impossible for such a fierce fire soldier to rush forward, even if we succeed, our casualties are incalculable, and the other side only needs to organize another defensive line to intercept us again." Instead of staying here and fighting to the death, it's better to take a detour! ”

"But that's going to take a whole four hundred miles!" It is normal to have voices of opposition, and in this difficult process of withdrawal, one more mile will cost more casualties, let alone four hundred miles.

"Are we all going to die here? That's a lot easier to walk! Dguzolf pushed back angrily. If he has a way to break through the enemy's defenses, then why bother?!
