Chapter 52: Joseph's Ambition
"Retreat!" Harlan looked at the wounded soldiers behind him, his face unusually solemn. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info He shouted, and all the soldiers immediately withdrew to the rear!
"Lord, let's chase it!" The enemy retreated without a fight, and one of the Central Plains infantrymen immediately suggested.
Gretel shook his head, raised his right hand, and put it down horizontally!
All the soldiers of the Three Kingdoms who were charging suddenly stopped and lined up neatly!
"The enemy's retreat is in good order, now the enemy situation is unknown, don't pursue it easily, since we have defeated the enemy army, then our goal has been achieved, withdraw our troops!"
"Ding, congratulations to the host for defeating the enemy, a total of 122 second-order first-order enemies were killed in this battle, and 2684 distributable experience points were obtained, and the battle damage was zero! XP bonus multiplier 5 times. Gain 13,420 allocable XP. Gain 134.2 merit points. ”
"Goo......" Gretel swallowed hard.
In this battle, Glitter thought that if he could get 1,500 experience points, he would satisfy his wish, but when a huge pie fell from the sky, Glitter was smashed a little dizzy!
Zero loss! Two rounds of skills are unleashed, but you can get 13,420 experience points!
This......
Glitter took a deep breath, this huge and incomparable experience value made him be dominated by an impulse in his heart, kill the past, chase the past, if the regiment destroys these two thousand soldiers, then he can become an extremely powerful warrior in one day!
This impulse was like a tide, constantly beating Gretel's heart, but Glitter held back!
This time they were able to obtain such a large amount of experience points, firstly, the second-order warriors provided more experience points, and secondly, they had a zero-damage record, and the experience rewards were directly increased by five times!
But that doesn't mean that such victories can happen often!
The Burst Flame Arrow seems to be incomparably powerful, but in the settlement of the system, the other party only lost less than one hundred and fifty people, and the entire two thousand second-order soldiers, the loss was only one-tenth, so they withdrew in embarrassment, and the opponent was still most of the main city-level soldiers who only had the strength of the first order and the fifth order, to say that there was no explosion among them? Who would believe it?
Therefore, this victory, this rich experience reward, is actually based on the premise that the enemy pretends to be defeated, and if the opponent really decides to fight to the end with himself, then it is really difficult to say who wins and who loses in the end.
However, this kind of obvious deception will not be tricked by anyone with a discerning eye, so what does the other party mean by doing this?
Gretel was puzzled and decided to withdraw his troops, but at this moment, chaos arose in the rear!
"General Gretel listened to the order, and on the orders of Lord Joseph, the commander of the coalition army, he ordered Gretel to lead the soldiers of Seoul as the vanguard and continue to pursue the enemy!"
Gretel's fists clenched suddenly, "We have just repelled the enemy army, and Lord Joseph will know about it......"
The herald suddenly hesitated, "That, that, my lord must have expected General Grett to be able to defeat the enemy army in advance, so that's why he gave this military order......
Grett looked at the military order in his hand and sneered, "Three thousand first-order fifth-order warriors, against two thousand second-order warriors, can Lord Joseph still have such confidence in us?" In my opinion, his confidence is fake, he colludes with the enemy, and knows that the enemy will retreat after encountering resistance, which is the real thing! ”
The soldier's eyes widened, "Gretel, what are you talking nonsense, Lord Joseph is the commander of the coalition army, you disobey the military order, and you dare to slander the general, you, you just wait for the kingdom's military verdict......" After Gretel's voice was full of fear, the soldier turned around and ran. The Darkiron Sword in Gretel's hand was thrown violently, and the Darkiron Sword broke through the void and plunged straight into the man's right leg!
"Ahh Gretel, you, you want to kill me, you, you dare to betray the kingdom, I, I must report to the Lord, you are dead, you are dead!! ”
Grabbing him by the neck, Glitter led him up: "Say, where is Joseph now!" ”
The soldier's face was pale, and there was a lot of blood flowing from his legs, and he clearly felt that his life was gone......
"Let go of me, Gretel, let me go quickly, Lord Joseph will lead the coalition army behind you, and your rebellious behavior will definitely be severely punished by Lord Joseph......" The soldier shouted in Gretel's hands.
A cold light flashed in Gretel's eyes, and his right hand was violently forced, and the soldier was thrown out directly like a sandbag, but Zhao Yun refused to stop there, and threw the long/spear in his hand violently! The spear swept across a straight line and caught up with the soldier, passing through his chest and ending his howl of pain!
Gretel's killing of the soldier can be regarded as a complete tear with Joseph.
"Lord, do we want to go back to Seoul now?" The soldier suggested to.
If it was really like what the soldier said, Joseph led the 9,000 allied troops behind, then he would definitely attack with joy after knowing that Seoul had rebelled!
Gretel shook his head, his face was solemn, "The retreat of the vanguard army of Herman Province, there must be deception in it, such a simple layout, Joseph can see it even if he is an idiot, but he insists on ordering us to pursue, I thought that he was going to let us automatically get into the enemy's trap, and solve the grievances between us under the pretense of public and private affairs, but I was wrong, when he pulled the nine thousand coalition troops in, I found that I was wrong, this Joseph clearly wanted to push all the nine thousand coalition troops into the enemy's trap!" ”
Gretel waved his hand violently, "Let's leave the official road and enter the woods!" ”
"Lord, the last general understands, all soldiers, leave the official road and enter the woods!"
Now bypassing the Joseph coalition forces behind and returning to Seoul, even if Joseph meets Gretel on the road, he will not stop him, because as long as Gretel does this, he will be convicted of rebellion! He wished that Gretel would turn around and go back to Seoul now!
And now, Glitter only needs to hide the army first, wait until Joseph can't find him, and must complete the task of fornication, when he leads the coalition army into the trap and reveals his true colors, Glitter strikes again, if he can rescue the coalition army, even if he can't save it, he can tell the lord the news, not only can he clear the charge of rebellion, but also make a contribution, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
However, the direction of the next battle exceeded Gretel's expectations!
When Joseph learns that Glitter disobeyed orders and killed the messenger soldiers, instead of being angry, he laughs and threatens to go back and destroy Grett in Seoul after breaking through the enemy army!
And the 9,000 coalition army, under the leadership of Joseph, not only caught up with the retreating Herman provincial army, but also defeated it, 2,000 soldiers, and captured nearly 1,000 people!
Two thousand second-order warriors were captured by first-order warriors, and this amazing battle made people have no time to think about how it happened, so Joseph took advantage of the victory to pursue and led the coalition army to attack the enemy-occupied province of Ulku!
In three days, Joseph relied on these 9,000 allied troops to penetrate deep into the province of Ulku, and encountered only slight resistance along the way, Joseph proved with facts that under the threat of the Second Army of the Kingdom of Caster, the enemy had concentrated all his soldiers on the southern border of Moulton and confronted the Second Army!
As soon as this news came out, Bruce, the commander of the Second Legion, praised Joseph greatly, and ordered the 12,500 defenders of Moulton's territory, under the command of Steve, to go to Ulku to support Joseph.
Bruce has a lot to say about such an arrangement! Steve, as a lord, lacks the vision of knowing people, and under the bribe of the Magic Guild, he promoted the nobody Glitter to the city lord, and that's it, at the critical moment, Glitter even disobeyed the military order and rebelled against the coalition army! This is also in the time of war, the war is urgent, the Second Army can't take care of Gretel, if it was peacetime, the Second Army would have rushed up with a big wave and destroyed Seoul!
And Joseph, a young and promising general, despite the obstruction of his subordinates, saw the essence of the emptiness of the enemy's forces, led his troops forward, not only broke the enemy army, but also recovered half of the territory of Ulku, which was indispensable! In contrast, it is not impossible to have Steve assist Joseph!
And Steve also received an order to destroy Seoul if he could......
Steve was quite helpless about Gretel, but the strange events that happened on the front line made him even more uneasy. Gretel's character, he knows, that kid who is more shrewd than a fox will never be untargeted, since Gretel did this, he must have his own considerations......
Although Steve was also suspicious of his reuse of Gretel, out of his last trust in Gretel, he still led his troops around Seoul and did not fully carry out Bruce's order - destroy Seoul!
Merlin calendar November 10, 1949. The soldiers of Steve's territory joined the coalition forces, and more than 20,000 troops launched a massive attack on the remaining enemy huddled in the south of Ulku, and the final battle to recover the province of Ulku!
By this day, Gretel's Seoul army of 3,000 had disappeared for three days......
"Lord Steve, in front, is the last bit of defenders of Herman huddled in Ulku, according to my scout's report, the enemy should also be a provincial army, the number is only 10,000, my 20,000 troops directly pressed on them, destroyed them, and then built a defensive wall inside the border, then, the battle to recover Ulku, you can also be regarded as a meritorious achievement, so that you have offset your merits and demerits, and use the wrong Gretel thing, presumably Your Majesty of the Kingdom will not blame you much......"
Joseph rode on a tall horse and said in high spirits.
Steve rode alongside him, he observed the terrain in front of him, and said lightly, "Have you seen His Majesty?" I know that Your Majesty will forgive me for my mistakes......"
Joseph turned his head, there was undisguised viciousness in his eyes, he could hear it, Steve was clearly mocking him for his low status!
Joseph turned his head, it's okay, let your arrogance/arrogance accompany you for another night, tomorrow, hum, I'll let 20,000 troops bury you! "Lord Steve, go down and rest, tomorrow morning, you will personally lead the army and break through the enemy camp, I am here, set up a celebration banquet, and wait for your good news......"
At night, the army of 20,000 was brightly lit, and Steve sat in his camp tent, his heart was so depressed that he couldn't breathe! It seems that tomorrow's battle will not end the battle of the reconquest of Uleku, but the battle of death to hell......
"Hey......" Steve sighed, he shook his head, but the thoughts in his mind were even more confused, he was about to stop thinking nonsense, rest early, and concentrate on tomorrow, and at this moment, a black cloth bag next to him suddenly glowed blue!
Steve was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly opened the cloth bag, and a blue crystal inside was constantly flashing!
This crystal is a one-time communication device, and the key thing is that it was personally given to Gerrette when he conferred the title of city lord in the first place!
I heard that Glitter rebelled before, and he tried to contact Glitter with crystals many times, but Grett just didn't accept it, and now, Glitter actually took the initiative to contact him!
Steve gritted his teeth and swiped his right hand on the crystal......
A light and shadow pattern immediately appeared in front of Steve, above the light and shadow, nearly 20,000 well-equipped troops, are hiding in the dense forest, this dense forest, the more Steve looks at it, the more familiar it is, when he raised his head, he suddenly noticed, this dense forest, isn't it the dense forest next to the place where the Herman army is curled up in front!
And these troops hidden in the dense forest, the equipment and badges on their bodies are clearly the hallmarks of Herman's long-range army!
"Your Lord, have you seen it all......" Gretel's voice suddenly came!
