Chapter 275: On the occasion of the rout

"It's almost unbearable. www.biquge.infoQuincy, who was standing next to Chappell, made this judgment.

It was already dark in the sky, and the two of them stood behind, and they could only see the vague outlines of the soldiers fighting in front of them. As the sky grew darker, soldiers began to raise torches on the battlefield. But compared to the entire huge battlefield, where can that little bit of spark make people see the battle situation clearly?

But this vagueness alone was enough to make Quincy conclude that he was completely at the bottom of his side—because it was all too obvious.

The soldiers of the 1,000 garrison regiments have already suffered heavy casualties. The specific number, due to the poor vision, although it is a clear night sky, but after all, it is not comparable to the day, and there is no way to count the number of people clearly.

But the tendency of the garrison to be gradually broken down again is a problem that cannot be concealed by darkness and night. Not only the garrison corps, but even the light infantry regiment that had just been slapped into battle and had only been fighting for about ten minutes, all showed signs of collapse along with the soldiers of the garrison corps.

This annoyed Chappell a little. A low-quality unit like the garrison corps is simply too disturbing when paired with a high-quality army. Especially on the same battlefield, their collapse often leads to the collapse of other troops, and this chain reaction is the culprit of the situation of 'defeat like a mountain' in some battles.

And now, the White Wolf Fort Legion is about to face this situation.

The only consolation is that the elite soldiers of the White Wolf Guard are still so strong. Although they had been fighting for an afternoon, and had held out for half an hour after the enemy's offensive had become several times more intense, and the casualties had accumulated not to be few, they still seemed to be able to hold their ground. The position of the White Wolf Guards is also the most stable place in the entire front of their own legion, and it is also the most solid pillar that has not yet been defeated by the whole army.

But the pressure on this pillar is also very high right now. When the allies around them reach a point where it is difficult to hold on, the pressure to support and disintegrate them becomes minimal. Even if they still rely on their tenacity to stand at the forefront of the entire battlefield, this can only slow down the collapse of friendly forces at most.

And if the garrison corps and light infantry forces are really defeated, and only the White Wolf Guards remain, it is difficult to say how long they will be able to hold out on this battlefield alone.

"What should I do?" As the co-captain of the First Wing, Quincy was already a little flustered. His eyes looked at Chapur beside him, but he saw that his old boss was also frowning.

Chappell didn't know what to do either.

This is also the main reason why Chapur, who also has a twelfth-level strength, is still a figure who has been on the battlefield for a long time, but he is not counted as a hero in the systematic evaluation of the heart of the dynasty: he is not strong enough in command, and he lacks a decisiveness to make decisions when he urgently needs the boss to come up with ideas.

Now, there are two paths in front of him: one is to prepare to fight and retreat, but this option is very risky. In the dark of night, if you give the order to retreat, when there is still a fierce battle on the front, who knows if the retreat will be directly defeated by the enemy? The order is easy to order, but if it really becomes a rout, that is, the gods will not be able to save it when they descend to earth.

The other way is to stick to the current situation, hoping that Dane can come over as soon as possible. But this is no less risky, who knows exactly when the garrison regiments and light infantry regiments in front will collapse? Who knows how long the White Wolf Guards will be able to hold out on the battlefield? What's even more unclear is when Dane will be able to come back? Without addressing these issues, Chappell couldn't convince himself of that choice.

Relatively speaking, no matter what choice he makes, the last force in his hands that has not yet been used, the White Wolf Cavalry Brigade that has been cruising on the edge of the battlefield, is a force that must be relied on. How exactly this team will be put to use, Chapur has not yet figured out.

He has now felt how stressful it is to be a manager on his own. From following Morno to later fighting with Dane, he had become accustomed to following orders, but he rarely had the responsibility of being a boss himself. It was only at this time that he realized that he really did not have this talent.

But what's the use of figuring this out? Now, with such a responsibility on his shoulders, he can't escape even if he wants to.

Just when he was still hesitant and couldn't make up his mind, there was another change on the battlefield. Chappell and Quincy had been fearing the most—the garrison in the darkness seemed to be unable to withstand the constant pressure of the Chaos City infantry.

Under the bright moon, faintly, Chappell saw the soldiers of the garrison corps, who had already had several squads, abandoned their positions and turned their heads to become deserters.

This is a dangerous sign!

This signal, even if Chapell's command ability is low, he can see it!

Although only a few squads of soldiers have been defeated at the moment, it is conceivable that the knock-on effects of these soldiers abandoning their positions will be very bad. It won't be long before the follow-up defensive positions will retreat one after another because of the drive of these routs, from the small team to the squadron, and then to the entire brigade...... A major rout is already in sight.

"Colonel, shall we withdraw?" Quincy said uneasily.

"Can't be withdrawn!" It seems that Chappell has made a choice, "There is no way to withdraw it." ”

Fortunately, Chapur has not yet arrived home after all, before, before the garrison corps and light infantry regiment, which accounted for the largest number of people in the whole army, had not collapsed, if they had used the strength of the wolf cavalry, they might still have the opportunity to fight and retreat, but now it is gone. As long as he dares to order the White Wolf Guards to retreat as well, there is almost a ninety percent chance that the White Wolf Guards will be carried into the rhythm of the rout by the other troops in the rout.

And if the order is to defend to the death, with the quality of the White Wolf Guard, it may be able to fight for a while.

Finally, Chappell gave the right order: "Beat the drums of war for me, let the White Wolf Guards hold their positions to the death, and they must not take half a step back unless they fight to the last soldier!" Quincy, come with me, I'm going to charge with the White Wolf Cavalry myself!" ”

"Yes!" (To be continued.) )
