Section 266 Pursuit of Victory (1)

How can there be no wind when setting fire?

As the baggage camp caught fire, Moon Shadow and Errigon saw it at the same time, the corners of the former's mouth rising to reveal a slightly evil smile, and a large amount of wind elementals gathered in her hands into a cyan whirlwind.

"Go ahead."

Moon Shadow tossed the whirlwind in the direction of the baggage camp, and when the whirlwind landed in the baggage camp, there was a bang, and the raging wind elemental turned into a violent wind that pushed the ferocious fire farther away......

Errigun was stunned when he saw the fire burning from the rear camp, but in a matter of moments, the fire not only spread over the baggage camp, but also spread among the other camps, and the soldiers let out a cry of terror, not only to avoid the attacks of the Dresses Imperial soldiers, but also to be vigilant against the engulfing flames......

"Magician, what about magician?"

There was a shout on the battlefield, yes, only water can overcome fire at this time?

Hundreds of mages chanted magic spells, and a dense concentration of water elementals began to gather---- undoubtedly telling the enemy where they were, and countless feathered arrows immediately covered the area they were, and several small dragon's breath balls turned it into a sea of fire......

"Withdraw!"

Errigun gave the most unspeakable order of his life, and with a salty throat, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and the man fell down.

"Legionnaire!"

There was an immediate mess around......

The defeat was like a mountain.

The death of two dragon knights, the destruction of all their baggage, and the confronting of a large number of undead creatures had reduced the morale of the Fats warriors to a minimum, and the unconscious of Errigun, the leader of the Red Moon Legion, was the last straw that broke the camel's back.

The undead warriors have been sent back to the underworld by Moon Shadow, and the ones who are chasing the Fateh rout are Moon Shadow's Earth Dragon Knights, Wyvern Knights, and the local legion that temporarily joined the fortress guards, its number is the 101st Lancer Regiment, and the commander of the regiment is a bearded man, not much taller than the dwarves. The voice is like thunder.

Due to the importance of the Duis Fortress, the pursuing troops did not include the defenders of the original fortress and the infantry of the Third Legion, but the cavalry units of the Third Legion were called in by Moonshadow, and the commander of the leading army was, of course, her brother-in-law...... Fertilizer and water do not flow into the fields of outsiders, who is not given this credit?

After two days of continuous pursuit, Moon Shadow ordered the pursuit to be stopped, much to the confusion of the officers and men of the local legions, who were bent on gaining more military merits, and the officers and men of the Second Dragon Knight Brigade under the command of Hawai.

As soon as the troops set up camp, Moon Shadow heard a loud voice from outside from Morrier, and then followed. Aosen's voice sounded outside the tent: "Count Alice, can we come in?" ”

"Please come in!"

Moon Shadow is a little helpless, Orson comes from a very traditional knight family. has an almost obsessive adherence to aristocratic etiquette, and never calls her name in public.

Moon Shadow thought it was strangely interesting, and the four people who came in had different expressions----

Orson is a helpless look; Maurier's face was indignant; The captain of the First Earth Dragon Knight, Lilde, looked innocent; Behind Lilde was Barzan, the captain of the Second Earth Dragon Knight Brigade, and this guy looked cautious, no matter how he looked at it, he seemed to have a weak heart.

"It's like...... It's almost here, why didn't the Hamptons come? "Moon Shadow checked, and there was one person missing---- the captain of the Wyvern Knight Brigade.

"That kid isn't interesting enough. I've been hiding for a long time! Maurier snorted.

"What can scare Your Excellency the Captain into hiding?"

Moon Shadow asked knowingly, she actually knew very well what these people were coming to, didn't they just want military merit, what's the big deal.

"That's it...... Hey, Orson, it's up to you. ”

Maurier is straightforward, but he's not stupid. Orson is the brother-in-law of Moonshadow, and this matter is not a secret in the fortress, so. He poked Orson in the back with his carrot-like fingers to get him out.

Moon Shadow shook her head helplessly, she was so old and a few people, and she was still playing children's tricks, she raised her voice and shouted, "Alto! ”

"Here, my lord, what do you command?"

Alto stepped in.

Veterans say that combat is a catalyst for soldiers, and there is a lot of truth in that. After the first two days of fighting. The lad has matured a lot, and he has done very well in these two days of fighting. "Find the Hamptons." Moon Shadow commanded.

looked at Maurier and the others with inexplicable expressions. Moon Shadow just doesn't make a sound...... Suffocate you!

When Hampton arrived, Moonshadow asked Alto to add a few more chairs to the tent to prepare for an impromptu pre-war meeting to answer their questions.

Moon Shadow was equipped with tables and chairs, she spread out a map on the table, pointed to a dot on it and said: "Aachen, it is the closest city, the inhabitants of this city have run out when the Fateh army arrived, it used to be a temporary military station of the Fatet Empire, although most of the supplies have been burned in front of the Duis Fortress, but there are still garrisons and considerable supplies left, the remnants of the Blood Moon Legion will definitely go there, we will kill them there, there is no escape!" ”

"Count Alice, wouldn't it be more difficult for them to take it if they had enough supplies and held the city?"

Not only was Morrier puzzled, but even Orson was full of question marks, if it weren't for the question of his sister-in-law's face, he would have asked the question a long time ago.

I don't know what other materials in Aachen City, at least long-range suppressive weapons such as crossbows and catapults are indispensable for defending the city, these long-range weapons not only have a considerable deterrent to the siege troops, but even the dragons are quite fearful, if the air superiority of the Wyvern troops alone, even if they win, it can only be a miserable victory, and the army of Prince Scott may arrive at any time.

"That's just for the average army, not for my troops!"

Moon Shadow said firmly, she was not interested in following those defeated soldiers in hot pursuit, it was easier to catch turtles in Wengzhong, as for those city-guarding giant crossbows that were regarded as flood beasts by ordinary dragons or flying monsters...... Hum! What kind of giant crossbow would cause damage to the puppet dragon, she was really interested in taking a look.

"Aachen is only half a day's journey from our current camp, and after a day's rest, we will attack Aachen tomorrow night, so as to fight a battle!" Moon Shadow commanded.

World War I? And it's still night!

Orson and Maurier looked at each other. And the captains of the Hawaii Command are full of confidence......

Aachen was originally a commercial city, not to mention any city defense, usually only stationed a swordsman army to maintain law and order, when the army of the Fatt Empire arrived, the city guard fled the city under the cover of the swordsman army, he only had time to do two good things--- one was to evacuate the residents of the city in time; Second, all the materials were taken away, and all the things that were not taken were burned.

After the capture of Aachen, the Fateh army used it as a temporary military station and stockpiled a large amount of supplies. and garrisoned a force of 10,000 people.

When the two main armies of the Iron Moon and the Blood Moon attacked the Duis Fortress, they took most of the supplies with the army. However, including the two legion elders, they didn't expect it. The battle turned sharply, the victor turned into a rout, and the Iron Moon Legion was wiped out from the legion commander Theodore down, and the Blood Moon Legion was also defeated, and the legion leader was seriously ill...... This series of blows brought the morale of the defenders of Aachen to a minimum.

Moon Shadow doesn't mean to be tricky, but it's a good idea to make enemies scared. The Wyvern Scouts were sent out from afar in a group of three, targeting all the spies from Aachen.

In the middle of the night the procession quietly marched into the woods outside Aachen at dawn the next day, where all the warriors and horsemen were resting on the spot, and eating all the same dry food. It is strictly forbidden to light a fire.

In the middle of the night, all the fighters entered the attack position in echelons under the cover of trees and night. The three-headed dragon and all the wyverns stopped in a clearing a little further from the woods, waiting for the order to attack.

Moon Shadow sits on the back of the puppet dragon. Raise your right hand high and fall down force-

With a long groan, the dragons soared into the air, their wings flapping rapidly into the air, and flew towards Aachen.

"Roaring ----"

The dragons also echoed in unison, like a heavy thunder rolling up on the ground, and whistling and flying behind the dragon.

By the time the dragon groaned, the defenders of Aachen were alert, and a large number of warriors hurried to the city in full gear (Moon Shadow suspected that they had not taken off their armor at all). The defenders of the city also immediately prepared crossbows and catapults......

Their speed is not unfast. Comparable to the Dragon...... The dragons didn't even have a breath to breathe before they reached the city.

First, two golden-red dragon's breath orbs and a white pillar of light turned the city's defending crossbow and catapult troops into a sea of fire. When the Wyvern Knights arrived, it was the beginning of the nightmare of the defending army---- among the countless small dragon breath balls, mixed with countless feathered arrows, the soldiers of the Fateh Empire fell in pieces, unable to organize effective resistance at all.

"Attack!"

The First Brigade of Dragonknights, led by Lilde, rushed to the city walls...... Of course, he would not lead the knights to directly attack the city wall, and at a distance of about three hundred meters from the city wall, he sharply led the knights to turn ---- keep parallel to the city wall, slowing down the pace of advance.

"Ready!"

With Lilder's order, the knights took out the Nine Dragons Thunder Torch and aimed it at the head of the city.

Rumble......

Dense rockets shot at the top of the city, and suddenly there was a wailing sound.

Under the multiple attacks, patches of fire appeared on the city wall, and many soldiers stumbled out of the fire but fell to the bottom of the city.

After the city wall was completely controlled, a squadron of dragon knights immediately seized the city gate, twisted the jack gate, opened the city gate, and the second dragon knight brigade rushed straight down the avenue to the city guard, like a sharp knife into the swarming Fateh army......

The offensive and defensive battle in Aachen was simply a one-sided massacre.
