Chapter 297: Reversing Black and White

readx;

The revised marching plan has become more powerful in terms of the configuration of the army, but the problem is that the army of 25,000 people does not belong to the Higg Empire, but to the people of the Holy See, and it is clear that Cardinal Raphael understands in his heart that because of the misjudgment of this war against the Elven Forest, it will lead to a serious decline in the prestige of the Holy See, especially the prestige of the Holy See that has just been established in Higg, so Raphael needs an army to support himself, and this time against the Elven army is the best opportunity, as long as the main force of the Knights Templar is in the land of the Hig Empire, Busman Roland has to obediently do what he wants。 Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

And the reason for the Holy See to send troops is also high-sounding, although the war took place in the Higg Empire, but the invaders are a group of heretics who believe in evil gods, as the vanguard of the Holy See's eradication of heretics, the Templar Order has every reason to send troops to fight.

The helpless military department sighed and gave an order according to the will of Emperor Higg, who let them meet a cowardly master, and only knew how to blindly retreat in front of the Holy See! According to the gossip from the palace attendants, this time Cardinal Raphael asked to change the march plan after entering the palace, Busman Rolland insisted on his own opinion at first, but the enraged Bishop Raphael almost pointed his nose and scolded His Majesty the Emperor for betraying his faith, and threatened Boothman Rolland, if His Majesty the Pope wants, he can always let a child of the Higg family who is more loyal to the God of Light inherit the throne, which is already ** The naked ground threatened that if another emperor with a strong personality was replaced, he was afraid that Cardinal Raphael would be expelled immediately, but Busman Rolland just ate this, and when he heard that his position as emperor might be risky, he immediately compromised.

The military headquarters transferred 10,000 cavalry from the Guards Corps stationed near Triumph City, led by Major General Clark to Badencheng, and embarked on a journey to aid Baden City after joining up with the 20,000 infantry that had been prepared in Baden City, as the result of a compromise between the Holy See and Higg, this time the commander-in-chief of the reinforcements was General Gerain, who had just been transferred back from the Elven Forest, but Clark, the commander of the 10,000 cavalry, was a general close to the Holy See.

General Geraint's command style has always been known for his steadyness, marching almost step by step, and did not relax his vigilance because of the urgency of the military situation in Lua City, and as the commander of 10,000 cavalry, Clark was eager to arrive in Lua City as soon as possible in order to show loyalty to the Holy See, Geraint ordered Clark not to advance several times as commander-in-chief, but the vanguard officer ignored the orders of his superiors on the grounds that the situation was urgent and the scouts in front did not find the enemy's situation, although he did not completely let go of the horse speed, but the two sides gradually distanced themselves.

On the fourth day after the reinforcements left Baden, the main infantry led by Geraint had already left Baden for more than 300 miles, and the cavalry camp in front of them was attacked by the elven cavalry when they were cooking in the evening of the same day.

The elves sent a total of 100,000 troops to counterattack this time, removing 20,000 baggage troops, and 80,000 people, but the commander-in-chief Berego did not invest all his troops when attacking Lua City, but sent 20,000 cavalry to encircle and reinforce, and personally led the cavalry to ambush the road between Baden City and Lua City, although the elves have been living in seclusion in the elven forest, but the long life makes them understand the situation on the continent very well, and Berego has just turned around in human society, so he expected that Higg will definitely send reinforcements from the direction of Baden City, because Baden City is the closest to Lua City。

As expected, Higg's army really chose to reinforce Lua City from the direction of Baden City, but Higg's 30,000 soldiers and horses made Berego not launch a surprise attack immediately, but calmly waited for the opportunity, and Higg's cavalry did not live up to Berego, and the opportunity came. In the evening of the same day, when the Higg cavalry set up camp on a plain, dug a trench, and set up a horse rejection, Berego led 20,000 cavalry to hide in the forest three miles away, and the natural fit of the elves with the forest was hidden from the Sig scouts. At night, the elven cavalry was assembled, Berego ordered a surprise attack, and it was difficult for the Higg cavalry to organize an effective defense when they were caught off guard, and as night fell, the elven cavalry took advantage of their vision, and the camp of the Higg army was hit by the elven cavalry, and the severed Hig cavalry was killed by bows and spears, and finally collapsed, Clark led the remnants of the defeated army to flee to the rear in a hurry, and Berego personally commanded the cavalry in hot pursuit, and pursued until three poles on the next day, only to be blocked by the infantry corps led by Geraint。

Berego commanded 20,000 elven cavalry to tentatively launch two attacks, but were forced to retreat by the infantry who were waiting for the battle, after some consideration, Berego thought that after a night of fighting, the elven army has been sleepy and tired, even if this army can be defeated, I am afraid that the elven cavalry will have to pay a huge sacrifice, which is what the elves in this war strive to avoid, so Berego finally decided to accept it when he sees it, let go of this infantry, and ordered a retreat.

It wasn't until the scouts confirmed that the elven cavalry had gone all the way south that Geraint began to busily collect the defeated troops, and after a day and a night, the total number of cavalry finally collected was less than three thousand. In just one night, the striker lost more than seventy percent of his troops, which made Geraint very angry, and immediately ordered his own soldiers to arrest the cavalry commander Clark, but the subordinates who went to capture Clark soon came back to report that Major General Clarke, who claimed to pursue the retreating elven cavalry, had already led the remnants of his men to run.

Disobeying military orders led to a crushing defeat.

This is a big crime, Geraint immediately sent a letter to the military department accusing Clark, hoping that the military department would give a heavy penalty, but a few days later he received a reply from the military department to know that Clarke had preemptively written a letter to the military department, claiming that his reinforcements encountered an ambush by the elven heavy soldiers, he led his subordinates to fight back, and in the case of paying a heavy price, he won more with less, repelled the elven army, and he is currently leading the rest of the army on the way to pursue the elven defeated army. The delay of the fighter plane led to the successful escape of the elven cavalry, and it was hoped that the military department would remove Geraint from his post and bring him to justice.

In this case, the military department can only reply to the investigation and make a separate decision, but until then, the two will remain in their original positions, and hope that they can cooperate sincerely to repel the invading enemy.

In addition, from a letter carried by the military boss, Geraint also learned that Cardinal Raphael was now looking for His Majesty the Emperor to ask for a reward for General Clarke, who had defeated the elven cavalry.

Reversing black and white, but that's it!

Holding the letter from the military department, Geraint looked up at the sky and was speechless for a long time! It is impossible for the military bigwigs not to know who is real and who is fake, but they just like to be with mud.

But General Geraint did not back down, and continued to march towards Lua City by the safest of all means.
