Chapter 720: The Flood
Iron Claw didn't understand why he had asked them to retreat at a critical moment, he had come all the way from the Far East to be a deserter. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
He had just heard the order for him to retreat, and Steelhoof had honestly complied with it, but he was a little unconvinced, and planned to hold his position against the incoming enemy.
But when Jason told him that it was Lin Ye's order, Iron Claw was stunned, he could ignore other people's orders, after all, the status was equal.
He was also a member of the Military Council, the highest military body in the Far East, and his status was a little higher than that of Lancelot.
However, Lin Ye's status is different, if it weren't for the young man who is now worshiped as a god in the Far East, at this time he is still fighting with other orc tribes in the Heishui River region for a little food, where is there such a graceful life now that he is wandering around the world?
"The Duke has been here a long time ago, and has already laid out a plan to deal with these guys? Can we arrange all this in such a short time, and this method is really worthy of the Duke, so what are we going to do now?"
Once Iron Paw understood the full plan, it dawned on him why even their orc legions had arrived on the Empire's Western Front.
Why is Lin Ye still late, it turns out that he has arrived early, but he has never appeared, this time they stood on the hillside and overlooked the battlefield.
"Wait a minute, according to the plan of the adults, after the water is released and all the enemies are drowned, the soldiers who are crossing the river in the river will bear the brunt of the end, and their army will be divided into two parts by the water, even if they do not drown directly in the water, they will be greatly affected. ”
"At this time, we attacked again in a light boat, and they had no intention of fighting when they were hit hard, and they were drowned in water, so there was no room for resistance, and it can be said that from the moment they attacked, they must have been doomed to defeat, which is really sad. ”
Jason stood on the hillside with a spear in his hand, and he looked in the direction of the upper reaches of the Misty River, waiting for the monstrous flood to fall, and it didn't take long for this moment to come.
Soon there was a loud rumbling sound as if the whole mountain was about to collapse, and they all buried their bodies and clung to the rock so that they would not fall.
In their sight, the rushing waves poured down the valley with a loud sound that cracked their eardrums.
The riverbed was not enough to restrain the beast, and it overflowed the riverbed, slamming down with a huge drop that was higher than a man's head, and it was surging and shocking.
The Crusader soldiers had no idea that there would be such a rushing flood, and for a long time they did not realize what was going on.
With such a vast power, it was as if the whole river was hanging in the sky and falling downwards towards them, who else but the gods had such great power?
But how are they the most faithful believers in the words of the gods, and why did this calamity befall them, not the enemy?
In that moment, the soldiers' eyes were doubtful, confused, and more fearful, and they were not afraid to die generously.
It was a new life for them, but what they feared was that they would have no place to go after death, and that there was no point in going to death.
"Is this the punishment of the gods? What are we doing wrong? To be punished like this, no, it's not true. ”
"Have we been abandoned by the gods? Isn't it the will of the gods that we have come here, and why is the disaster sending to us?"
"If I die here, I'm going to hell, right? I've lived a miserable life for a lifetime, and I don't want to be tortured after I die!"
These fanatical soldiers looked up at the monstrous flood, their eyes wide and their eyes full of fear, and they did not know how to respond.
"I can't die here, I don't want to go to hell yet, I'm going to run, escape from this cursed place, I've been deceived!"
"This expedition has drawn the wrath of the gods, it was not right from the start, that guy Gregor has deceived us, that bastard!"
"Run over there, you can escape with a life on higher ground, otherwise it's too late, run quickly, you can't die here!"
There were exclamations, and the soldiers woke up from a dream and began to run for their lives, no one wanting to be the mourners of this monstrous flood.
However, the merciless flood was like an upside-down heavenly river, and finally it poured down coldly, and the huge waves instantly overturned the light boat floating in the river, and the panicked people on the light boat had no way to escape, and were drowned in the fierce wave, and there was no chance to struggle.
The soldiers who had landed fled to the higher ground, the valley was so low that the ferocious flood overflowed the riverbed, and they were not given a chance to flee for their lives, no matter how fast they ran, how fast could they be with this life-devouring merciless beast?
Heavy rain poured down, and the entire river valley was completely reduced to a swamped country, and the raging flood flooded the soldiers on both banks. Struggle, despair, and redundancy.
But in the face of that loud "boom", it was insignificant, it was the roar of the most desperate beast, it wanted to devour everything, destroy everything, there is no god in this world, it is the supreme god, who can arbitrarily control the life and death of these weak people.
Even the elite paladins of the Crusaders were powerless to stop this irreversible torrent of fate, their armor was blessed by the light, and could withstand the slashing of ordinary swords, but in the face of this incomparable vastness of power, it was too insignificant, and they were rushed to pieces in an instant.
Standing in the position of Lin Ye, he looked down, the dense firelight became scattered, and there were countless tiny waves in the water slapping and struggling.
These are the last attempts of the dying to survive, and no one wants to be torn apart by the flood and crumble in despair.
"I'm very sorry, although I don't want to do it either, but from my standpoint, this is the only thing I can do, so I hope you can forgive me, the only way to stop the war is to completely destroy the opponent, I don't want to be destroyed, so only you are destroyed. ”
Lin Ye looked at the scene of the merciless flood engulfing this huge army, his face was expressionless, he couldn't figure out what kind of ruthlessness it took to see this scene and calmly give orders, more than a hundred small boats were ready, these were the ships that Lancelot had collected before demolishing the bridge.
Among them were canoes, including fishing boats, and the soldiers were ready to sweep the battlefield, and everyone could see it.
The opponent has already suffered a devastating blow, and there is no fighting spirit at all.
"Go ahead, put an end to this war, at least...... It is a war that burns within the borders of the Empire. ”
Lin Ye finally waved his hand down, and the soldiers began to move.
