Chapter 461: Pocket
Although Joanna had not seen some of the battles that Langdon had experienced, she had heard about them, especially the one that helped her change the situation of the war.
But alas, it is clear that the memories of this younger brother as a child are even more profound, so that Joanna has never been able to equate her younger brother with "a wonderful lord with a bunch of powerful troops".
So, the following scene happened.
"With such an enemy, I can come, and let your troops continue to recuperate. ”
Langdon had just waved his hand to send his troops out to attack, but he was stopped by Joanna, and then watched as Joanna's troops poured out, drowning the enemy's troops.
Yes, the troops rushing out from behind Langdon were not his, but Joanna's......
And Joanna's words look like care, but as long as you are not stupid, you know that it is a distrust of the Langdon troops.
Losing an opportunity to pretend to be public, Langdon was a little unhappy, but he still suppressed his emotions well, and pouted his lips concealedly at the eldest sister who was watching the battle, but didn't say anything.
Joanna had a lot of troops at her disposal, much more than Langdon's.
Although many troops had been lost in previous wars due to 1vs2, when Mistress Isis left the Underworld, she was given a much larger and more elite force.
Isis's mother left, leaving the city to Langdon's third sister, the army to Langdon's eldest sister, and Langdon's second sister Vivien, who received a lot of valuable materials, but Langdon's son got nothing.
I don't know if Mistress Isis was angry because Langdon had rejected her before, or if she really felt that her son didn't need her help.
Therefore, despite going through such a difficult war, Joanna is now much stronger than before.
This kind of strength was not shown at all in the first battle, the number of enemy troops was not large, and it was not elite, under the premise of being attacked by the enemy, it was instantly crushed by the tidal wave of troops under Joanna's command, and the last one escaped alive, but it was also in line with the sentence "I don't want to take prisoners" that Langdon said before the war.
The Morty family was not quick to react to this, and by the time the upper echelons of the family got the news that the territory had been attacked, Langdon and Joanna had already fought two battles.
In addition to the sneak attack in the first game, the other two were run into the defenders arranged by the Morty family.
Territorial defense, mainly reconnaissance, the general defenders will only be stationed on some communication arteries, and a large number of patrol teams will be scattered to control the entire border.
This second battle takes place after the Morty family's scout team finally spotted Langdon and Joanna's forces and informed the defenders.
That garrison was quite numerous, and it was the main defender of the Morty family's border with Joanna's territory, numbering more than a thousand.
After learning that someone had invaded, they sent someone back to report it, and on the other hand, relying on their own strength, they took the initiative to come and fight with Langdon Joanna and them.
It was also a sneak attack, but their sneak attack did not have any effect, because when they reached a few kilometers away from Langdon's headquarters, they had already been spotted by Langdon's scouts.
Because this time it was a regular large-scale war, Langdon didn't dare to make too much of it, and in addition to bringing almost all the main forces, he also brought a special scout force formed by the dark elf Cahill.
"The enemy has discovered us, and now their troops are about five kilometers to the southwest, about 1,500 men. ”
Langdon told Joanna about the information that his subordinates had just reported, and his expression was calm and his tone was ordinary on the surface, but his heart was strangely refreshing.
Also out of distrust of him, Joanna sent out the scout force herself, but it was not until Langdon told Joanna the news that her scout force had not returned, and it was clear that, at least in terms of scouting, Landon had outdone the eldest sister.
The last time I wanted to pretend to be public, I was stopped by this eldest sister, but this time I finally succeeded, and it was still a slap in the face, this feeling was quite sour, and the sour Langdon couldn't stop laughing in his heart.
"Then get ready to fight. Joanna said lightly, turning and walking towards her troops, but Langdon still saw her brow slightly condensed the moment she turned around.
"Wha......ha
The scout battle was won, and it would be a fool not to take advantage of it, and Joanna, who had inherited the fighting talent of Isis's mother, could not be a fool, and after knowing the enemy's situation, she immediately made a series of commands.
Half of those troops are her own, usually from the Mother of Isis, and in the face of this new master who is most similar to the Mother of Isis, those troops are no strangers at all, and the speed of feedback to her orders is also first-rate.
Soon, all the troops were deployed, and according to Joanna's deployment, when the enemy arrived, they would fall into the pockets that had been laid out long ago.
And Langdon watched Joanna finish the setup from beginning to end, however, at the end, Joanna didn't mention him and his troops, and it was clear that, like last time, she didn't intend to involve Langdon's troops in the battle because of distrust.
Langdon, who had just finished his dark refreshment, suddenly became a little unhappy again, pouted, turned around, and walked to his troops.
He didn't make a fine arrangement like Joanna, but simply said, "Since my eldest sister doesn't want me to interfere, then I won't be in a hurry to interfere, but, out of politeness, it's still necessary to arrange it casually." ”
After speaking, Langdon turned around and returned to Joanna's side, seeing that his brother turned around and came back after less than 1 minute, obviously not arranging anything specific, but the troops under his command all moved, Joanna pouted without a trace, in her opinion, her younger brother was simply pretending, wanting to pretend to be a man and pretend to be powerful in front of her sister.
She doesn't care too much about this, no matter how much trouble you make, as long as you don't get in the way of me fighting and defeating the enemy.
Again, Langdon didn't say much, just waited quietly, waiting for the enemy to arrive.
In the scout battle, the Morty family's defensive forces were completely defeated, not only because they were discovered by Cahill so early, but also because they did not find Joanna's arrangement against them until they reached the ambush site.
The reason is simple, most of the scouts they sent were diverted by Cahill and his party, and the other few who discovered the enemy's pocket formation were not able to return to the army alive.
When two armies are fighting, scouts move first, so dying a few scouts is normal for a large-scale battle.
For the defending force, it was just a sign that the enemy scouts had spotted them and left them with no way to surprise them, but they had no idea that they had already stepped into the enemy's arranged pockets!
