There was a screeching roar and a blinding fire, the temperature of which was so high that Gray's skin, which was exposed to the air, tingled slightly as if it were baking the flames. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Gray forced himself not to close his eyes, and when he turned his head, it was the direction of the enemy camp, and a large fire was burning into the sky, and the flames were even more fierce into the sky.

Gray said secretly: "It's not good!" and hurriedly drove the horses under his crotch towards the accident site.

The closer he got to the edge of the fire, the higher the temperature, and although Gray was drenched in sweat, he still felt cold in his body, a chill that penetrated deep into his bone marrow.

Looking at the scattered soldiers, Gray roared, "Stop!"

When the soldiers saw Gray coming, and heard his voice again, they were stunned, and their bodies habitually stood still, and Gray shouted again: "The whole team!"

Gray hurriedly ordered the herald beside him: "Quick! Pass my military order, the captains of each major team will be succeeded by the deputy captain, and if all the brigade-level commanders are killed in battle, the captain of the first squadron will succeed him, and so on!"

"Go, tell the whole army!" Gray shouted angrily when he saw that the herald was still stunned.

"Pass on my military order, whoever dares to flee in all directions will be punished as the crime of defection, and officers at all levels and above the squadron leader have the right to deal with it!"

"Order, the 3rd Infantry Regiment and the 4th Infantry Regiment will be deployed along the east bank of the river!"

Gray issued a few orders in one breath, and then he pulled the reins of his horse and ran on the edge of the fire, shouting as he ran: "Don't panic! Don't panic!"

Many of the soldiers' nervousness immediately calmed down when they saw their commander, and with the few orders Gray had just issued, the rest of the troops were quickly assembled.

There were less than 3,000 of the 10,000 men left in the two infantry regiments on the front line, and Gray's heart was bleeding! He tried to keep himself calm, and Pula and Sent survived while they were scouting other enemy troops nearby!

Another fire, and a full 7,000 lives disappeared in an instant.

"Sir Grey! I... I... Hey...!" Pula didn't know what to say, both infantry regiments were under the command of their father and son, and now it was like this.

"I'm willing to take all the blame!" said Cent, dismounting, and fell to one knee.

Gray frowned: "Now is not the time to talk about this issue, let's gather the troops first, no one can run away from whomever is responsible, even me!"

Damn Viscount Donna!Gray cursed in his heart.

Suddenly, the left side of Gray's face was cold, this cold feeling was obvious, after all, the fire next to it was baking, and then the sound of 'ticking' sounded, and a drizzle slowly fell when everyone was unconscious.

"Damn it, why didn't it rain sooner!" Pula shook the rain off her arm.

At this time, a scout rushed in: "Sir Gray, the Mark Knight has discovered the main force of the enemy army, and they have withdrawn to the town of Mega!"

Gray stretched out his hand, took off the knight's gloves, and let the rain fall into the palm of his hand, the cold feeling could make people feel relaxed, and he said: "Let the Mark knight closely monitor the movement of the enemy army, and don't venture in without a precise order!"

The weather in the south of the Alan continent in July is always changeable, one moment it may be clear, the next moment it may be a torrential downpour!

The Earl had already given the order to gather his forces and retreat to the east bank.

The rest of the troops were already slowly retreating towards their own barracks, the fire behind them slowly becoming smaller in the rain, Gray's mind suddenly flashed, and he muttered to himself: "Water, fire, rain, river?"

The surrounding people were silent.

As Gray walked to the middle of the Ani River, he suddenly raised his head and asked Ruken beside him, "What about the scout named Vic?"

"Sir Gray!" Before Ruken could reply, Vic's voice came from behind Gray.

Gray immediately turned his head: "Tell those refugees, let them find a way to drag Viscount Donna's army in Meijia Town, they can agree to any request, even if it is a canonized noble, and the quota is unlimited!"

Gray's words shocked everyone around him, his face was full of disbelief, and Vic frowned: "Sir Gray, Viscount Donna's troops are at least 10,000 strong!"

"I know, I just need them to hold back, and only for a day, and we can agree to any request they have!" Gray repeated.

"Sir Grey, don't you ask the Earl first?" Pura reminded him, and Vic gave him a grateful look.

Gray shook his head: "Vic, do as I say, fast!"

Vic was stunned, looked at Gray's serious expression, gritted his teeth and replied, "Don't worry, Sir Gray!"

"Also, bring the man named Rena to me tomorrow before it gets dark, remember! tomorrow before it gets dark!" Gray stopped Vic as he was about to leave.

Vic was stunned, stared at Gray's cold eyes, and immediately nodded away.

"Sir Grey, you?" Pura didn't know why Gray dared to be such a lord and canonize a nobleman, this is not a promise that a captain of the guard should make!

"Knight Pura, I'll leave the rest of the army to you, and I'll go see Lord Earl!" said Gray, squeezing his horse's belly with his legs, and walking away.

This time, it was obvious that it was a trap that Viscount Donna had laid a long time ago, he was really ruthless enough, he had logistical problems, but as long as he reduced some troops, he could still maintain it until his army withdrew to his territory.

But Viscount Donna didn't want to waste this part of the soldiers in vain, so he chose to let this part of the soldiers become victims, the resistance of this part of the soldiers effectively covered the retreat of the main force, and also gave people the illusion of a temporary emergency retreat.

At the same time, in order to make his territory absolutely safe, he set up this fire, no wonder he dared to stay for one more day on the premise of knowing that his logistics line had been paralyzed, all in order to arrange this trap.

Gray thought to himself.

"Earl, I'm sorry!" Gray fell to his knees on one knee in the Earl's main tent, and the nobles gathered around Earl Lockton at this time.

Count Lockton was expressionless, and asked in a deep voice, "What about the casualties of the troops?"

"At least seven thousand dead!" Gray said hoarsely.

Lockton let out a 'hmm', his voice was low, and his eyes suddenly widened, and the nobles around him looked coldly, not at all intending to speak.

After all, Gray is not unfamiliar with any of them, or has no interest in it, and many of the nobles' sons are still knights of the Knight Guard, and now these people don't know whether they live or die, and the nobles are already good if they don't fall into the ground.

"The command is on me this time, Sir Grey doesn't have to blame himself too much! After all, I am the boss! You can get up first!" Count Lockton relaxed after thinking for a while, and the nobles next to him were obviously surprised when they heard this, and they swept around Earl Lockton and Gray.

"Thank you, Lord Earl!" Gray felt relieved, he couldn't understand why Count Lockton didn't blame himself, but he didn't care about it now!

As soon as Gray stood up, he immediately walked up to Count Lockton and whispered in his ear: "Lord Earl, I have a way to completely deal with the remnants of Viscount Donna's army!"

Earl Lockton's eyes lit up, but then he frowned again, obviously a little unconvinced, but he decided to listen anyway, and immediately said to the nobles on the left and right: "You go back to the camp first!"

Although the nobles wanted to know what Gray was going to say to Earl Lockton, they did not dare to disobey the earl, and they all looked at Gray thoughtfully before leaving.
