Chapter 56: Reversal

Although Ice Sword Sauer is also a great undead, his ability is relatively evenly distributed, if you talk about mental wisdom, he will definitely be able to defeat the Valkyrie, but he is still inferior to the boss in terms of physical strength and fighting skills. Although he unexpectedly beat Freya into a hurry, Freya ruthlessly put the threat of Duke Windsor behind him for the time being, and engaged the ice sword Sauer, and gained the upper hand in a few rounds. She relied on her stick to move quickly, forcing the ice sword Shaoer in a corner, Shaoer gradually felt that the swordsmanship was scattered, and several times she was almost broken through the sword net by Freya's long stick, fortunately, she also had some scruples about the cold ice sword qi, and she didn't dare to use the old tricks, for fear that Shaoer would fight with her and lose both.

At this moment, Lu Jingzhi's Hu Cong cavalry appeared. He struck out from the flanks and rear of the enemy infantry with a camouflaged husk, and rushed with all his strength as soon as he attacked. Although the cavalry did not have as many weapons as the knights, the first few cavalrymen also held spears in their hands, and the cavalry behind mostly used one-handed long swords and rushed over with an indomitable momentum. The infantry legion that was attacked from both sides did not know which side it was better to meet the enemy, and the Valkyrie in his heart was entangled by the enemy's ice sword commander, and he suddenly panicked. Obviously, he had several times the strength of the opponent, but he was defeated like ice and snow.

Seeing Lu Jingzhi coming with his troops, Freya hurriedly handed out two sticks, forced the ice sword Shaoer to take a step away, turned around and retreated to open the portal, and the end of the stick pointed at the ice sword Shaoer, as long as Shaoer dared to take a step forward, he sent out a shock wave to hit him. Ice Sword Sauer was also a warlike man, and knew that he couldn't defeat this beautiful female undead with his current strength, so he had to retreat and let Freya clean up the remnants.

Lu Jingzhi saw that Freya was no longer fighting with the ice sword Sauer, for fear that she would send another shock wave, so he hurriedly restrained his cavalry team and opened a safe distance. Freya took the opportunity to gather the remnants of her shockwave and retreated.

When the Duke of Windsor saw this in the Chinese army, he was sure that the left and right wings were victorious, and if the Chinese army could also win a complete victory, the grievances with the former prime minister of Ados would be a perfect rest.

Seeing the right flank advancing slowly, and the left flank also packing up the battlefield and preparing to attack, Duke Wensha's self-confidence instantly swelled. He also followed the example of Afaron to buckle his armor and strike his breastplate with a fist with his steel-gloved left hand, thumping. Seeing that the lord was about to attack, the knights of the Chinese army also held their left hand and tapped their breastplates together. For a time, the integration battlefield was covered with this thud. After boosting the morale of the Chinese army to the top, the Duke of Windsa rode out and led his army to rush towards the enemy's Chinese army.

Leonardo saw all the defeats on the left and right and knew that the decisive victory was up to him. So he also rode out and took his Black Flame Knights to meet the Duke of Windsor.

After the war, the Duke of Windsor and his high-ranking knights deduced the whole process of the war over and over again, trying to find out the reasons for the defeat. But no matter how many times it was deduced, the results all pointed to the Duke of Winsand himself. If he hadn't been too excited at that time and put all his forces into the decisive battle of the Middle Route Army, he would not have been robbed of the camp and the military supplies would have been burned.

At that time, the Duke of Windsor's Chinese army clashed with Leonardo's Chinese army, although the Duke of Windsor's troops were slightly inferior in equipment, but in terms of morale and numbers, the Duke of Windsor had the upper hand. Coupled with the simultaneous pressure of the left and right wings towards the center, it was soon possible to enclose Leonardo.

At this moment, Ados himself led a light cavalry to sneak around and attack the Duke of Windsor's camp, burning all the war materials inside. Sugar Candy and Leviatan followed Duke Windsor as escorts and were not affected. Sijiu hid in the grass outside the camp and picked up a life. All the undead infantry left behind were wiped out.

Seeing the fire in the camp, Duke Wensha's first reaction was to go back to the army to save him. After all, his years of hard work have been there, and he just let it burn, and he can't give it up no matter what. So he committed a military taboo, turned around and retreated before the enemy's formation, and his morale plummeted. Leonardo seized the opportunity and led the heavy cavalry to continuously charge, breaking through the middle of the leaderless Windsor army. Lu Jingzhi and Afalon hurriedly stepped forward to rescue, and in the melee, Afalon was hit by Leonardo's black ripple first, and was hit by Freya with a few shock waves, and died on the spot. Seeing that he could not resist the enemy, Lu Jing retreated from the battlefield and risked sending troops to feint and attack the enemy's camp.

Fearing that the other party would attack the camp in the same way, Leonardo quickly led his troops back to defense, and in line with the idea of not seeking merit but seeking no fault, Freya and Baronte also returned to the camp with the remnants of their subordinates. The defeated Duke of Winsha was unable to salvage his war materiel after all, and watched tons of sulfur and ice fruit burned to ashes. Having lost the war materials, the war could not continue, so the Duke of Wensha had to collect his troops and return to the city, completely withdrawing from the dispute for the border village.

When he returned to the camp, the Duke of Wensha ordered Lu Jingzhi to lead his troops to break off, and only gave him all the human slaves, and the undead knights and infantry were all taken away. Because in comparison, only Lu Jingzhi's army and horse suffered the least losses. Lu Jingzhi took the order, led the humans to set up an ambush in the hillock, made up for the gap in combat power with a large number of civil works, and used the fire prepared in advance to attack and repel the pursuing Ados army, and even Baronert was burned. The Ados army did not know what ambush was behind the hillock, and did not dare to enter lightly. Lu Jingzhi took the opportunity to flee back to the territory of the Duke of Wensha with his troops.

The two sides ceased fighting.

"Hey, I think this kid Lu Jingzhi is not loyal to me, what do you say?" Duke Wensha has often stayed awake late at night since he returned from the battle, and this time he even summoned Gasso and Ice Sword Sauer to have a secret talk. As soon as they met, they heard Duke Wensha say this, and the two great undead frowned.

"My lord, I have not the slightest doubt about your precise judgment, but I don't understand, where did you see that magic had caused your Excellency to be unfaithful to you?" asked Gasso, hunching over. At the time of this defeat, he flashed to his waist as he fled for his life. Although the undead did not feel a pain in their backs, old Gaso could only walk on his back.

Duke Wensha pointed to the map and said, "You said, that kid asked me to point my horse's head at the left flank, so that the Valkyrie discovered me, did you want to use me as a bait to lure the enemy?"

When others heard this, they might have been a little puzzled, but when Ice Sword Shaoer heard it, he was very unimpressed, and he knew best how much the duke had changed the battle situation when he saw it. It's just that his personality is cold, and there are some things that he would rather rot in his stomach than say. Gasso, on the other hand, was a wise man, and a wise man was obliged to speak out and explain when the lord had doubts.

"Dear sir, I don't think so. Gasso said humbly, as always, with his slumped forward figure, like a servant about to prostrate at his master's feet, "Your Excellency of the Magician, though he has used some small means, has no effect on you in the slightest, and your gaze has boosted the morale of our army. ”

"It also interferes with that pretty girl's attention, otherwise I wouldn't have had a chance to fight her in close combat. Ice Sword Sauer added to Gaso's help.

Duke Wensha said unhappily: "Are you my subordinates or his subordinates? I think he has a problem, otherwise why would the Ados army, who could defeat me, be defeated by him in the pursuit?"

That's because you're incompetent!" Ice Sword Sauer said in his heart, but he couldn't say it.

"My lord, are you looking for someone who bears the notoriety of defeat for you?" Old Gasso always guessed exactly what the Duke was thinking.

Duke Wensha smiled awkwardly: "Do you know why you still say it? Okay, he was picked up by me, and it's not a big deal to carry a black cauldron for me, right?!"

Gasso shook his head and said, "My lord, you shouldn't have done that. ”

Duke Wensha's eyes widened, and he said, "Are you saying that I shouldn't treat him so harshly, for fear that he will hate me?"

Still shaking his head, Gasso replied, "My lord, what you want to do with your Excellency is a matter of course. What I want to say is that we should not get someone to come out and carry the blame now, but we should find someone to come out and act as a hero. ”

"Hero?!" Duke Wensha said angrily as if he had been stung, "Are you sarcastic about me?

Gasso squeezed the cane in his hand, tried to raise his head, looked into the eyes of Duke Wensha and said, "My lord, it is precisely because we have failed that we need a hero. Because when the battle is defeated, the hearts of the people are scattered, and a hero is needed for everyone to look up to and follow. If we win, you can do whatever you want with the magician, but we lose, so make the most of him, so more soldiers and knights will be willing to follow you. ”

"Really?" Duke Wensha pondered for a moment and hesitated, "Then see if I can ......"

"My lord!" said Old Gaso, raising his voice, interrupting the Duke of Windsor, "he can be a hero, but you can't. ”

Duke Wensha was not only not angry, but looked even more embarrassed, was silent for a moment, and finally waved his hand in annoyance: "Okay." Tomorrow I will declare him the hero of this war, and the soldiers and cavalry of the whole city and the whole army will admire him, and that is enough, right?"

"Not enough, my lord. As if exhausted in the sentence just now, Gasso's momentum changed back to his rickety and humble appearance, and he whispered: "If you want to do it, why don't you do it all? Tomorrow you will give him a feast of celebration, and give him your treasured sword, and make him the most favored high-ranking knight by your side." ”

Although Ice Sword Sauer knew that this was a strategy against Lu Jingzhi, he was still extremely uncomfortable after listening to Gazo's words, and couldn't help but snort.

Gasso just smiled politely at Ice Sword Sauer, made an apologetic gesture, and then turned his head to continue looking at Duke Windsand expectantly.

The Duke of Windsor paced back and forth, and when he reached the twentieth lap, he finally raised his head and said hatefully: "I will not do it! ”

Gasso persuaded again: "My lord, it is not you who loses, but poor Afaron. Although he is familiar with the art of war, he does not have the combat power of a high-ranking knight. If you had changed places with him at that time, you would have been able to retreat calmly under the siege of the two great undead. ”

Surely he will die worse than Afaron. Ice Sword Sauer couldn't help but snort without contempt, but his eyes fell to the ground, he was afraid that his eyes were different, so that the Duke could see it.

Seeing that the Duke of Windsor still couldn't make up his mind, Old Gaso added: "My lord, he is your only 'son'." ”

Did the Duke of Wensha agree? Did Lu Jingzhi become a hero?

If you want to know what happens next, let's see the next breakdown.
