Chapter 69: The Great Retreat
"What about the Zerg?" An officer asked.
In fact, Tiar's biggest headache at the moment is the Zerg, and he is only now suddenly realizing that the Zerg have long joined forces with Rigard, just waiting for the moment to come. Tiar was almost certain that if his army retreated, the Zerg army would follow.
Tial glanced around and said, "We must break our wrists." The officers apparently knew what Tiar meant, and they all bowed their heads when they were swept away by Tiar. Tial frowned, when did he become a group of cowards in his army?
At this moment, a middle-aged man wearing golden knight armor stepped forward and said, "The Radiant Knights are willing to break off the army for the sake of the army!" ”
"Sonia, you are worthy of being the only disciple of the Sage Lord Kane, but your Knights of Radiance have a more important mission, and you should not stand up at this time." Tial said.
This person is the only disciple of the paladin Kane, the sword of glory, Sonia, a knight with the title of rank 8, and the Knights of Radiance led by him is the largest knight order in the entire kingdom, with a total of 18,000 knights, belonging to the first division of the Holy Prayer Legion, but such a powerful combat force Kane obviously does not want them to be sent to death.
Bob, the division commander of the Fifth Division, saw this situation and knew that he had to go on his own, and even if he didn't come out, he was afraid that he would be named by Tiar: "Marshal, our Fifth Division is willing to stay behind." ”
This time Tial did not refuse, and readily agreed: "Bob, you are worthy of being an excellent soldier in the kingdom, and I will definitely ask Your Majesty to ask for credit for your family after returning to the royal capital." ”
Bob agreed bitterly, and looking at Tiar's satisfied smile, Bob knew that he must have already had his own candidate in his heart. First of all, as the Fifth Division of the Holy Prayer Legion, it is basically a pure infantry legion, and most of the magic crystal cannons and magic bed crossbows of the Holy Prayer Legion are basically operated by the Fifth Division, this time Tial will definitely not bring these obviously cumbersome things if he wants to return to the royal capital quickly.
"Now I have assigned combat missions, and the Fifth Division is responsible for guarding the camp, and as a support, we have handed over all the magic crystal cannons and magic bed crossbows to the Fifth Division. All the rest of us will immediately set out for the royal capital with their own armies, and we must return to the royal capital within a day! Tial said.
"Yes, Marshal," replied the generals.
When all the generals walked out of the camp tent, Tiar fell into deep thought, the Zerg had worked hard to lay out such a game, and there would definitely be a follow-up. Moreover, it is impossible for the 800,000 troops of the Zerg to be stopped by the 40,000 people of his Fifth Division, but at present, he has no choice but to follow the script of the Zerg. "May the goddess Isis protect us and others." Tial prayed silently.
As the generals of the various divisions returned to their posts, the whole camp began to move. A junior officer of the Fifth Division asked suspiciously, "What's going on?" Did those bastards of the 1st Division have a convulsion today? I usually hide that big magic guide-level magic crystal cannon like a treasure and don't want to take it out, why did I hand it over to our Fifth Division today? ”
Another officer beside him said, "Not only the first division, but even the second division's Great Magic Guide-level magic crystal cannon has been handed over, and just now my subordinates are in charge of taking over the guard work of the fort...... Do you think it's evil today, when did the 1st and 2nd Divisions become so good? ”
After hearing this, the officer just now frowned and said: "I don't think the situation will be so simple, just now I saw that the soldiers of other divisions and regiments are gathering, only our fifth division is taking over the important part of the entire camp, and now our fifth division has basically completely received the magic bed crossbow and magic crystal artillery arrow tower of the entire camp...... Are you saying they're ready to attack the Zerg? Leave us here to look after the family? ”
After saying this, the two officers looked at each other, in fact, they already had a bad premonition in their hearts, but no one wanted to say it. At this moment, a soldier on the arrow tower suddenly exclaimed: "They're gone, they're gone!" The crowd looked up and asked, "What is gone?" The soldier said: "I saw that the brothers of the other divisions had gone out of the north gate. Hearing this, the whole army was in an uproar, if they went out from the south gate of the camp, they could comfort themselves that it was those people who went to attack the Zerg, but if they went out from the north gate, it was obviously an escape!
"Silence! The noisy are summarily executed! At this moment, Bob, the commander of the Fifth Division, arrived at the scene and roared. The Sacred Prayer Legion was an elite unit after all, and it quickly fell silent under the pressure of Bob's bullets.
"Look at you, all the fuss you have become, are you still a member of the Legion of Holy Prayers?" Bob glanced around, and all the soldiers bowed their heads.
"I just received an order to fight, and my Fifth Division is responsible for guarding the security of the camp until the return of the army." Bob said.
"Will the army ever come back? Checkmate? An officer asked.
"Of course we will come back, the army is only temporarily dealing with some emergencies in the north, we only need to hold on for two days before the army returns." Bob had to lie to his men in order to boost morale, and while the Legion of Holy Prayers was second to none in the Northern Kingdom in terms of fighting will and morale, telling them the truth would only make them despair.
The officer looked back at the endless Zerg army outside the south gate of the camp, swallowed with difficulty, and said, "Can we hold out for 2 days?" ”
"Are you still a member of the Legion of Holy Prayers? The will of the Legion of the Holy Prayer is as strong as a rock, even in the face of the Rigard Griffin Legion, we have not been defeated in a hundred years, we are invincible! Bob said.
The sergeants were all boosted by Bob's words, but Bob knew that this was only temporary, and he himself was not confident that he would be able to hold out for half a day in the face of this boundless swarm, after all, the Fifth Division left behind could be said to be the weakest unit of the Sacred Prayer Legion......
The scout bugs scattered in inconspicuous positions took in everything in the camp, and the evolved Morgana was even more powerful, because of the initial evolution, she had not yet fully controlled her abilities, and the almost substantial spiritual power was swaying around him like blue flames, and the huge coercion made her mount Wyvern tremble.
"Stupid Tiar, do you want to rely on less than 40,000 men to stop my Zerg army? A strong man should also be decisive when he breaks his wrist, and you will pay for your arrogance! ”
