Chapter 232: Asymmetric War (Third Update, Ask for Subscription)

Chapter 232

The Sorcerers' Guild ultimately did not pass a resolution to interfere in Sintra's operations. A high-sounding reason, stuck that offer. Warlocks are not allowed to interfere in the internal affairs of the state. Even though all the warlocks knew that this rule was, once it was put on the table, it had to be followed. So eventually, the Warlock Guild remained quiet.

Tyrelia was not surprised by this situation. Foltest was a very decisive king. Even without the support of the Warlock Guild, the other side still gathered an army and prepared for battle. After all, the other party has already hit the door, and if he doesn't fight back, Tyrellia's thousand-year-old reputation will be ruined in his hands.

Tyreria is one of the strongest kingdoms in the north. In a dozen days, 8,000 regular troops were recruited. Mightily drove south, ready to fight Sintra to the death. It's not that he doesn't want to bring more, but Foltest knows. Whether it is Redania behind him or Aden on the side, they are not good people. If you come out of the nest, you don't know what will happen.

No sooner had the army left the territory of Tyreria than they were attacked. A dozen griffons, from the sky, dropped alchemical bombs on the ground army.

In one wave, hundreds of people died, and hundreds of others were wounded. When the heavy bow and crossbow were ready, the griffons quickly withdrew. The Air Force is so ruthless to the infantry. I can hit you, but there's nothing you can do about me.

In order to prevent sneak attacks from the air. More than sixty crossbows must be on guard at all times. This requires a large number of soldiers to assist in maintenance. The team was moving more than twice as slowly.

However, this is far from the end, and at night, even more bizarre attacks appear. The Giant Wolf, a visibly mutated giant wolf, will attack the camp at night. They don't hurt people, they go at the horses. There was no need for anything else at all, just the breath of those giant wolves made almost all the war horses frantically frightened.

In the face of this harassment, Temeria was helpless. Only cavalry can catch up with that kind of giant wolf, but the war horse does not dare to chase it at all. So a large number of soldiers could only be divided to guard the war horses overnight. As a result, it's slower. And the soldier's momentum plummeted, and his mood was impetuous. Before the battlefield arrived, Foltest felt like he was going to die.

But this battle cannot be left unfought. Because he sent troops with great fanfare, the whole continent knew about it. If you don't even see the enemy and run back, then Temeria will never be able to hold its head up again on the entire continent. He himself could also be included in one of the most disgraced kings of all time.

I can't retreat, I can only rush hard. The most terrifying thing is because of the presence of giant wolves and griffins. The scouts on Foltest's side were barely able to move. As soon as a small group of soldiers is left alone, the giant wolves and griffons will suddenly appear. And without the help of heavy crossbow arrows, in the face of air power, those soldiers simply did not have the power to fight back.

According to the soldiers who had fled, the griffons had weak spots on their abdomen, covered with a kind of light armor. Ordinary crossbow bolts do not work at all. Scouts are not able to move around in a large area. It means that the entire army can only be in a state of blindness.

And this state of affairs lasted for seven days, and the morale of the entire army was already extremely low. Because there will be attacks at any time during the night, most of the soldiers are nervous. The continuous rush, coupled with poor rest, the entire corps was already on the verge of collapse.

Fortunately, Brugg is now approaching. Foltest then ordered the whole army to halt its advance. Take turns resting, recuperate enough, and attack.

And at the first moment when the whole army set up camp, an overwhelming rushing sound came from afar. Knowing that something was wrong, Foltest shouted: Enemy attack......

And the soldiers, who had just relaxed, immediately strengthened their spirits and established a defensive circle. At this time, the griffin in the sky appeared again. Traces of giant wolves also appeared in the rear of the troops. For it has not yet been encamped, and the horses have not yet been tethered. The frightened horse suddenly dragged his knight and ran wildly. The entire camp was in chaos in an instant.

Foltest closed his eyes helplessly, he knew that he had lost. He was very unconvinced in his heart, and he always felt that the place did not set up a position, and he fought with him with real knives and guns, and there was a feeling of unconvincing to lose. But at the same time, he understands that this is not a reason at all. It's just because the opponent's style of play is too delicate.

Special operations also exist in this world. Nilfgaard did a great job. But the countries of the North are much weaker in this regard. What's more, under Su Yuan's various operations. Two beasts, the giant wolf and the griffin, have successfully joined the special operations regiment in Sintra. Alchemy bombs with traits, aerial bombardment, night disturbances. For the army in general, it can be called incomprehensible.

And when the knights of Sintra rushed over, Foltest saw the knights. The uniform dark gray armor and gray spear were carved out of a mold. From a distance, it looks like a gray torrent.

The torrent came in an instant, and the defense line that Temoria had just barely built was torn apart like papier-mâché. Thousands of knights, like a sharp sword, tore the entire camp directly from the middle, shattering it. The war was over at the very first contact between the two sides.

A group of knights forced their way out of the room. And the pair of cavalry seemed to be of little interest to him, and only symbolically pursued him for a few steps, and then turned back to encircle his soldiers.

The capture of a king is, of course, an exhilarating achievement. But kings are also of kinds. The king of a small country like Hidaris can toss whatever he wants. But if the king of Temeria is captured, it means a lot. It is possible to defeat the battle, but if the kings of the first northern power are captured. That might have spurred the rest of the northern powers into joining forces against Sintra. That would not be in line with Su Yuan's strategic intentions.

After a period of strangulation, the entire Temerian army completely collapsed. A large number of soldiers scattered and fled. But in the face of a whole cavalry encirclement, there is basically no possibility of escaping. Only Foltest's Praetorian Guard, plus a cavalry, broke through. The total number is about two thousand people.

The army of 8,000 men lost about 6,000 men in the First World War. This has already left Temoria in a state of nerve. And Hitla's cavalry regiment was not completely wiped out. Instead, all the remaining 3,000 or so people were taken prisoner. These are good labor.
