Chapter 266: Unexpected Containment
What's going on with the core? Anyway. At this time, he launched an attack, and the unaware Yang only talked about it too early?. Jian Chen was a little confused by the situation at this time.
At this time, Christine had already ordered the whole army to fight, although it was two people who were in charge of this operation together, but the more experienced Christine was undoubtedly the first commander of this operation, and Chen Jian, who had not yet been fully accepted by these imperial soldiers, was just assisting from the side.
"Nothing strange! There will always be some idiot guys in this world who are self-righteous and want to take credit! There must be such fools among the Kregans! It seems that the enemy's encirclement is almost complete, so some people can't wait to jump out and want to eliminate our first work! ”
Christine said with a sneer, his eyes full of disdain: "But if you want to use me Christine as a stepping stone for him to get promoted and make a fortune, this guy's courage is really not ordinary."
After a while, the scout team patrolling in that direction also brought back information about the enemy's attack, but what made Christine and Jian Chen a little laughable was that the enemy's strength was only three thousand, and it was almost the same as the army that Jian Chen had attacked before, and there were not many great demon warriors among them.
"The enemy's commander has something wrong with his head, right? Such a force dares to come and grab merit? Doesn't he know that we have more troops than they do? "Chen Jianjue's is incredible.
Christine was also speechless.
The two of them were inexplicably puzzled, and the female magician, who had been monitoring the enemy's every move with her magical eyes, said with a sigh: "They have turned! ”
Jian Chen put his head in front of the magic screen to take a look, and sure enough, the enemy made a big turn of nearly ninety degrees, and he actually planned to leave like this.
"What the hell is going on? Jian Chen was very inexplicable, and the actions of these enemies were a little too weird.
Christine also frowned.
In fact, as Christine said, this Krigan army really wants to take the lead, because their commander is the Krigan Archdemon general Lafarage.
After sending men to scout the area where Bandak was located on the orders of Naames, Rafaqi learned of the annihilation of Bandak's army.
Rafaci, like Bandak, was Names's formidable man, and he and Bandak had always been in a competitive relationship, at least until Sherlock joined.
Rafaqi still knew a lot about Bandak's abilities and the combat effectiveness of his troops, so he was taken aback when he learned that Bandak's army had been annihilated.
For this reason, he also made a special detour and took his headquarters to the scene to investigate.
Because after learning of the Kerrigan people's plan, Chen Jian hurriedly evacuated, because he did not completely clean the battlefield, so the battlefield, when Lafage arrived, basically remained the same as before.
The corpses of the Cregan soldiers, the traces of the fire magic attack, the scattered camp from the battle, all of them told Lafaqi about the intensity of the battle.
That's when Rafaci had a misunderstanding.
Because he had to hurry, he didn't survey the battlefield too carefully Therefore, he arbitrarily believed that those fire magic attacks came out of the fire mage under Bandak's hands.
In addition, as a competitor, he also has a considerable degree of recognition of Bandak's ability, because he believes that although the enemy has annihilated Bandak's army, he must have suffered heavy losses.
Kill 1,000 enemies and lose 800 yourself.
It's just that he didn't expect that this kind of common sense seemed a little inappropriate to apply to Chen Jian.
Although intelligence from the Stone Castle indicated that the enemy's troops entering the underground were likely to be only about 1,000 men, Farage was completely unconvinced.
How could a thousand emperors wipe out the entire army of Bandak? Unless all those thousand soldiers are archangels!
With the idea of picking up cheap and relying on his familiarity with the terrain, Lafaqi took a shortcut underground, and quickly caught up with Chen Jian and Christine's troops.
As a result, after getting quite close, Rafaqi realized that the enemy's forces were not as heavy as he had imagined, and that they were still maintaining the initial intelligence of about 5,000 men.
This unexpected situation surprised Lafaqi, and he hurriedly ordered to stop the plan to attack the enemy, "However, he was not willing to leave, so although he was quite jealous that the enemy could destroy the combat power of Bendak, he still led his army to carefully keep a distance on the periphery of this imperial ** team, and was ready to act as the vanguard of Names's large-scale attack on the enemy.
His actions bothered Jian Chen and Christine a little for the rest of the day, as they couldn't figure out what the enemy was trying to do.
The unexpected situation made the operation that the two had planned to break out of the rear a bit restrained, after all, there was a Kerrigan army following them at such a close distance, so they had to brace themselves and be ready for battle. so as not to be taken advantage of by the enemy.
"No! If this continues, the enemy will know the direction of our breakthrough sooner than we expected, and will certainly be prepared, so that we will not be able to achieve our goal of taking the enemy by surprise and turning the passive into the active." Christine is now gritting her teeth with hatred for this Kerrigan army.
Jian Chen also had a solemn face: "But it is not easy to get rid of them, we are faster than the enemy and have the strength to destroy this Kerrigan army, but the other party will definitely choose to flee instead of fighting us!" In this way, our time will be greatly delayed by this enemy! It's hard to say whether you will be able to break through smoothly then! ”
Christine gritted his teeth and said, "Let's just give up all the radial weights that have nothing to do with the battle, and use the high mobility of the cavalry to get rid of these enemies, so that we will reach our destination faster than the original Jige, maybe there is still time for a short rest, and then launch a breakthrough attack on the emperor ** team led by Naams!" Increase the likelihood of success in the breakout! However, after breaking through, the problem of supply is more troublesome, the wild in this ghost place is so desolate, there is no food at all! ”
Chen Jian pondered for a while, and said: "It's important to break through first, as for the supply, let's find a way then, anyway, these things may not be able to be brought out when we break through!" And I think there must be convoys of convoys in the vicinity of the stone castle transporting supplies back and forth, and we'll see if we can get some out of them and we'll be gone! ”
"That's right!" Christine nodded, and began to summon the soldiers to prepare.
The magic letter teleportation array is an important communication tool, of course, it cannot be abandoned, and when a Christine personal guard in charge of storage and liaison took out the tool that had to be stored in the box because it was always in a state of readiness for war, he opened it by the way to check it, and finally found the emergency contact from Catherine.
He didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly sent the letter marked with an emergency sign to Christine's hand, Christine opened the letter and looked at it, couldn't help but smile bitterly, turned to Chen Jian and said: "Your Majesty also noticed the movement of the Krigan people, and also made an analysis of the enemy's troop layout I didn't expect the Krigan people to make such a big move, I said what did you do to make the Krigan people angry, they are so determined to win you?" Even at the expense of abandoning some of the transportation lines and easing the offensive against the elemental clans, he also had to draw troops to encircle and suppress you? ”
Christine's words made Jian Chen and the magician a little confused, so Jian Chen frowned and said, "What do you mean by this?" Are the Cregans targeting me? ”
"See for yourself! Important people! Christine handed the letter to Jian Chen, "Your Majesty said in the letter that you are the key to our victory in this war, and I will ensure your safety no matter what, and never let you die in battle or fall into the hands of the Krigans!" Even if I and this army are wiped out because of this! ”
Jian Chen took the letter and read it again, and the puzzle on his face became even heavier: "What the hell is going on, Your Majesty didn't explain the specific reason, how did I become the key to the Holy Alliance to win this war?" ”
Christine looked at Jian Chen with scrutinizing eyes: "You really don't know? ”
"Hell! Kristen! I really don't know! You doubt me! Chen Jian was furious and threw the letter back to the other party, these days, he and Christine have talked very much, and now the other party is questioning him a little difficult to accept, "If I really had a way to defeat the Kerrigans, I would have done it a long time ago!" Do you think I don't want to end this damn war sooner rather than later, and leave Hammondale to my new territory? Isn't it fun to fight the Kerrigans here with you? Why should I take such a risk? What's in it for me! ”
The sorceress also glared at Christine.
Christine thought about it carefully, and felt that what Chen Jian said made sense, and couldn't help but feel a little ashamed: "I'm sorry, Jian Chen, I really shouldn't doubt you, but what's the matter with Your Majesty's letter?" She must have said that for a reason! ”
"How do I know!" Jian Chen replied angrily, but his heart was also inexplicable.
He really couldn't figure out how he had become the key to the Holy Alliance's defeat of the Kregans for no apparent reason.
But Catherine would say this, certainly not without purpose, she is not a person who would casually say such irresponsible things.
And Catherine did not explain in the letter what kind of reason Chen Jian came out of that it was so critical and important, but only asked Christine to prove Chen Jian's safety no matter what, and repeatedly told Chen Jian to protect himself.
Seeing that Chen Jian didn't want to discuss this matter anymore, Christine had no choice but to stop talking, but hurried to write a letter to Catherine to report the situation of his group at this time, and questioned Chen Jian's matter.
Finally getting in touch with Christine, Catherine and Cedros are finally relieved.
At this time, a whole day had passed, and Catherine had already sent a rescue army composed of hundreds of archangels to rush to Baildus, and at the same time, together with Cedros, through the coalition headquarters, asked all the coalition troops in Bailders to move closer to the direction where Chen Jian and Christine were, trying to relieve the predicament they were facing and break the encirclement network built by Naames.
However, Catherine also knew that it might be too late for Shi Zhou, and Jian Chen and Christine were already trapped in the trap of the enemy at this time, and it was not easy to escape with their whole body.
By all indications, the enemy is already beginning to close the net.
