Chapter 1347: Trapped in the Pass

This campaign! In order to evacuate the safety of the army, Prince Terryth personally led the king of giants, Ahiri, and the leader of the frost giants, Yurek, with only more than 6,000 soldiers, to leave behind and intercept the pursuit of the coalition army of nearly 30,000 elite cavalry legions, and finally succeeded in repelling the coalition cavalry legion and ensuring the safety of the army after nearly two hours of bloody fighting until it was getting dark.

However, this time to intercept the pursuing army, these three also took a great risk, not only the king of the giants who had stepped into the realm of the gods, Ahiri was carried back, even the Prince of Territh was seriously injured, but the most pity was the frost giant leader Yulek, although he persevered to the end, but he fought to the death and sacrificed his life for the demon god Koschurch.

Fortunately, King Vertunmar, who learned the information, sent troops over in time to reinforce him, otherwise under the pursuit of the other party's subsequent army, not only would these three and the few hundred warriors who were left unable to survive, but even the evacuated army would probably not be able to reach the meeting point.

Although in the eyes of the people, the side of King Vertunmar that suddenly appeared at this time did not seem to be too many troops, but these hundreds of thousands of elite divisions relied on the dangerous terrain there and firmly guarded a pass, and even won three battles and three victories during the period, blocking the nearly 400,000 troops pursued by the coalition forces outside the pass.

However, at this point, the commander of the coalition forces, Prince Clandis, did not seem to be in a hurry, even though he had drawn out the army of Fortonmar and knew his strength here, he also ordered the reinforcements and supplies to arrive quickly, and stationed the army firmly here.

On the side of Vertunmar, there were originally several powerful legions hidden, just to take advantage of the opponent's strong attack to turn the tables in one fell swoop, but what I didn't expect was that the commander of the coalition army, who was eager to lead the troops to pursue in person, suddenly became stable at this time, which couldn't help but Vertunmar, including the generals below, was very depressed, and had a feeling that he was a beast, but was led into a trap by hunters.

Several times he tried to lure the opponent to fight a decisive battle before reinforcements arrived, but at this time, the Prince of Crandis only defended with all his might, even in the face of the flaws they deliberately leaked, he never made a move, which could not help but make the generals on Vertunmar's side feel depressed At the same time, they also knew that this person was indeed a good fighter.

For a while, there seemed to be a stalemate here, but everyone knew that even if Vertunmar might still have some troops in his hands, as long as the main force of the coalition army arrived, there would definitely be a big battle here, and in front of the coalition army's million-strong army, only Vertunmar and Prince Terreth with the remnants of the army remained, even if the previous record was extraordinary, there would be no chance of a turnaround.

"Otherwise, we'll go out and fight with them! I don't believe that with our current strength of more than 200,000 troops, we can't settle those guys," at this time, in a tent in the pass, the leader of the two-headed giants, Okusk, shouted with some anger.

However, in this regard, Fortonmar looked at him and sighed and said: "I know that the death of Lord Yulek makes you feel very sad and angry, but what can we do now if we go out and win, I believe that you have also seen their strength, even if we win in the end, I believe that there will be only one or two of you left, and at that time, when the other party's reinforcements come again, what will we do to complete the task assigned by our lord?" ”

"Is there a result if we wait like this?" Although he knew that what Vertunmar said was reasonable, he was obviously still unwilling in his heart, and at this time, the leader of the two-headed giant couldn't help but ask again, but his voice was much quieter than before.

Hearing his words, everyone present at this time couldn't help but show helpless expressions, obviously they also knew the current situation, and they were indeed in an extremely passive position.

It may be that seeing that the atmosphere is a little depressing, at this moment Li Ran also stood up and said with a smile: "You might as well be patient, millions of troops are marching, especially when there are still many hoplites, it is impossible for the other party's reinforcements to come so quickly, and my side has ordered to transfer troops from the Dawn City, although I can't solve the immediate urgency, but as long as my soldiers and horses go out, I believe that the other party will definitely have some main forces to come back, in that case, we may still have a chance, not to mention that you come over this time to complete the myth, Tell the Demon Lord about this, and if the Great Immortal Frost God sends some more men, we will have a better chance of winning."

Despite his cruel and tyrannical nature, the generals present still had a lot of respect for Li Ran, the Prince of Terres, after all, for them, this person not only lost hundreds of thousands of soldiers, but even his own injuries have not healed yet.

Especially at this moment, when they heard that he had transferred troops from the Dawning City again and was about to hold off some reinforcements from the other side, they cast even more eyes of approval.

However, for the last sentence Li Ran said, after glancing at each other, they all turned their eyes to King Vertunmar, but this one was a little eager to say anything.

"I'm sorry, it seems that I asked more, even if it's inconvenient to say, forget it, let's continue to discuss the current form" seemed to see some hidden intentions in this, and Li Ran, who was the Prince of Terres, also hurriedly said with a smile.

Glancing at everyone again, especially when he found that Gilbert was nodding slightly, Vertunmar said with a dry smile: "Lord Terryth, don't care, if you want to say that with the relationship between us, it doesn't matter if you tell you about this matter, the place of mythology we are going to this time is a secret that our lord has obtained in the endless abyss, although we don't know what is in it, but it should be of great use to my lord, and the last time the royal court battled, you also know that my lord has been warned by the gods, Therefore, if our lord opens the teleportation channel here, it will inevitably attract the attention of other gods, and let them discover this secret, I am afraid that it will be even more troublesome at that time! ”

Being able to be noticed by the gods naturally can't be an ordinary thing, and when he saw that after listening to what Fortonmar said, the eyes of this Prince of Terryth did not show too much greed except regret, including the two-headed giant Okusk, he was also a little relieved.

But at the same time, they also knew that in this case, they agreed with Vertonmar to inform the prince of the matter, in addition to the good relationship, after all, the other party had lost hundreds of thousands of troops for this matter, and they did not want to have a rift with their hearts.

And more importantly, in the current situation, all the troops under this Prince Terryth are only a few thousand here, even if they are greedy, they don't care.

Fortunately, this person was very knowledgeable, and did not show a greedy expression because of this matter, and then said to Vertunmar with a wry smile: "I said why don't you even want the capital this time?" It turns out that because of this incident, you told me earlier, didn't I say that I would prepare more manpower? I'm trapped by these guys from Rebecca now, and if you can go back this time, you'll have to compensate me in full."

Hearing Li Ran's words, everyone present couldn't help laughing, but when they discussed the current embarrassing situation later, they had no choice, after all, now they are fighting to the death, and if they don't fight and wait for the other party to come, they will only have the end of defeat, and it is even more impossible to retreat, that is undoubtedly to show the secret of the demon god Koschurch to everyone, even if they die, they can't afford to delay such a responsibility.

However, dragging it out like this is not a way after all, although Li Ran has already said that his forces in Dawning City have been assembled, and it is possible to drag back some of the main legions of the coalition army, but in the past few days, they have also seen the ability of the Prince of Clandis on the other side, even if something like this happens, they will definitely leave enough legions to destroy them.

In the end, in desperation, Vertonmar proposed a bold plan, that is, to take advantage of the steady character of the Prince of Klandis, leave part of the army here to feign confrontation with him, and then the army secretly rushed back to continue the road.

After all, in his opinion, after so many days of development, it is not far from their estimate of the location of the Divine Land, as long as they make sure that the Demon Lord Costchurch can obtain it first, no matter whether they are defeated or killed in the end, it can be regarded as completing the task given by the God of Faith.

And in this way, as long as the demon lord Koschage gets what he wants first, he is naturally not afraid of other gods coming to snatch it, and even if he establishes a teleportation channel to come over the troops, I believe that the other gods will only warn again at most, after all, under normal circumstances, most gods will not provoke a demon god from the endless abyss without interest.

For the people who were already in a desperate situation, suddenly hearing this plan of Verton Marr, the generals present couldn't help but light up, because they also knew that according to the current situation, it was indeed as Verton Marr said, as long as this way maybe they would have a chance of survival.

Although during this period, Gilbert and others also raised some concerns, such as the time it will take, whether there is a chance of success, and if the coalition commander suddenly attacks, it will only expose the plan in advance.

But these worries, after all, are only unconfirmed things, and no matter how cruel and cruel people are, they will not be willing to wait for death here, so after some deliberation, this plan was quickly finalized.

Then it was decided who to stay, but Chebman, the leader of the demonized barbarians, took the initiative to petition to take on this task, because he knew very well that the troops he led were indeed inferior to those stronger giant warriors in the task of opening the way.
