Chapter 118: Phantom Armor Warrior Reinforcements
Davenport has retreated, and already intends to take all the sins on his own to save the remaining soldiers from returning home safely.
Forcing himself to remain calm, Davenport instructed the generals to go back and take command of their troops and prepare for retreat. And immediately send an elite and powerful army of 100,000 people to the west to rescue the survivors of the cavalryββββ if there are any survivors!
Just as Davenport thought, the leaders were terrified! The heavy loss of half a million cavalry like this was almost unprecedented in history. In particular, they did not witness how the disaster happened, and with their own imaginations, all kinds of horror and incomprehension became more and more terrifying. It can be said that they are all frightened, and they have long lost the initial enterprising spirit. Davenport's retreat order made them breathe a sigh of relief, and one by one they relaxed their minds and rushed back to their troops to prepare to retreat.
As for them returning in vain, it will definitely have a bad impact, and the Holy See will inevitably punish the coachββββ that's Davenport's business, they are just obeying orders!
The human army stopped at this, and they no longer entered the path of the Broken Mountain, but retreated backwards, and began to reorganize their ranks and prepare for retreat. The army that went to find the survivors soon returned, and they reported to Davenport: the small plain to the west had completely become a flooded country, and those who could escape had fled to the high places, and those who were missing, fearing that they would be more than lucky, saw the orc army on the periphery, and feared that they would be attacked by the orc plot, so they could only rush back. Davenport didn't bother to scold these timid creatures............ An elite army of 100,000 people is actually afraid of being attacked by orcs?
Come back, come back, anyway, even if those cavalry have survivors, I'm afraid they won't be able to escape the orcs. It's better to keep the army in front of you!
Baroque, who hurriedly mobilized all the beast armor warriors, all commanded by himself, and hid in the shadows to prepare for an opportunity to attack, immediately became depressed.
He didn't expect Davenport to be so decisive. Seeing that things were not good, he immediately gathered a large army and retreated. Although it is a good thing for the orcs, after all, they no longer have to face the threat of humans. But in this way, Baroque's plot to sneak attack and kill human mages failed, and under the protection of a million-strong army, with only two hundred beast-armored warriors. Don't want to hurt the magicians by half a hair.
It can be said that for the resourceful and resourceful man, the most feared are not those brave and strong commanders, but precisely the calm and rational commanders like Davenport. Because brave and fierce people are often stubborn and self-serving, they will always show their weaknesses, and those who are calm and rational will show their weaknesses after they are exposed. But he can make up for it immediately with an open mind. There's nowhere to start.
Just like that, I watched the 1.5 million human army turn around, and the legions maintained a tight defensive posture among themselves, retreating safely the way they came. There is no good chance of sneak attack, and the Baroque can only sigh.
If it continues like this, maybe Davenport will be able to safely bring the army back intact, and Baroque can only let the orc warriors carry out a sneak attack at most, and kill and injure 18,000 people at will. But perhaps it was Baroque luck, or perhaps it was the blessing of the fictional beast god, a twist suddenly appeared..................
Davenport and his army had already embarked on the retreat route, and had only been on it for less than two days. A rumbling scout hurried back and came to him to report: "Lord Master, I have encountered reinforcements from the Holy See...... It's a group of powerful Phantom Armor warriors, a whole team of two hundred!"
Davenport gasped, his brow furrowed deeply. Although the people around them heard that such a powerful force was rushing to reinforce them, their originally low morale actually magically swelled and their spirits were refreshed. Davenport, however, had a headache, and he suddenly remembered that he had sent a request for reinforcements to the rear, and that he had forgotten about it in the past few days. Unexpectedly, the Holy See really sent reinforcements from the Phantom Crystal Armor Warriors, and more than two hundred people were sent at one time. He really didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
Arguably. Davenport put himself in a dilemma. Reason told him that even with the help of these two hundred Phantom Armor warriors, his best choice was to withdraw his troops. After all, after destroying the core elite force in his hand, he didn't dare to guarantee that he would be able to win. Not to mention the Valley of Miracles that captured the Orcs. And if they are not careful in the tundra, they will end up in total annihilation. It's the home of orcs, and humans are just intruders-by, inherently disadvantaged.
However, he was unwilling, relying on the two hundred phantom armor warriors who came to help, plus nearly two thousand magicians whose strength was intact at this time. No matter how you look at it, he has enough background to give it a try. Who wants to admit defeat and retreat when there is still hope, and then bear all the guilt himself? Davenport was a loyal member of the Holy See, but he did not want to be infamous as a substitute for the dead.
This is human nature, the most elusive thing! Two hundred illusory armor warriors inspired the character of Davenport gamblers. He wanted to try again.
Soon two hundred phantom armor warriors arrived, led by a stout man, he had a height of more than two meters, and he was as majestic as an orc. The body is covered with a layer of dark iron armor-like heavy phantom armor, that is, like a walking steel fortress. This is a [Iron Armored Bull Phantom Crystal Armored Warrior], a powerful warrior who belongs to the peak of the high rank. On the battlefield, the strength he could exert even surpassed the [Radiant Tiger King Phantom Armor] that was one order higher than him
Davenport had a headache when he saw the high-level phantom armor warrior [Lu Kiyan]! Although this tower-like man was brave in battle, he was not afraid of death. However, he is also notoriously rebellious, and in the Bright Mountain, his most famous deeds are that except for obeying the orders of the Pope, no patriarch or apocalypse is looked at by him. He despised even such revered beings as saints and divine envoys. In his mind, only God's spokesman [His Majesty Magus] is truly worthy of allegiance.
The arrival of Lukyan can also show the importance that Pope Magus attaches to the eradication of orcs this time. It also shows the Pope's support for Davenport. Otherwise, if it was those people from the patriarchal families of the Holy See who led the team, they would not dare to say such a thing as disobeying Davenport's orders, but it would be certain that Yang Fengyin would disobey.
But Davenport was not happy, and he even hoped that it would be those who came to the aid of the senators, and it would be easier for Lukiyan to arrive. Because he was in a very bad situation at this time, even if he decided to return and attack the orcs again, he needed to march safely, and after arriving safely in the Valley of Miracles, he would force the orc army to come out and fight the human army. But Lukiyan was not the kind of person who could be safe, especially when Davenport suffered a big loss and lost almost all of his half a million cavalry. Expect Lukiyan to obey orders? Don't be bloody, don't be scolded!
Davenport was just about to step forward to meet the Phantom Warrior reinforcements, when Lukiyan rushed over, crashing the soldiers who couldn't dodge along the way, and a series of screams came.
"Davenport, Lord Controller, you are really impressive! You have buried half a million cavalry before you have even fought the orcs head-on! With the God of Light above, is this how you repay the Pope's trust in you? Even 500,000 pigs, you won't be killed by the orcs at once, right?" the iron man Lukiyan yelled in a fiery temper. It can be seen how angry and incredible this big man will be when he learns the news of the destruction of the cavalry army.
In front of the army, Davenport felt that he couldn't get off the stage, and his face immediately sank. Before he could reply, Lu Kiyan rushed forward and spoke: "What did I see? After suffering such a great humiliation, not only did you not take revenge, but you were actually ready to retreat with your tail between your legs? Are you still a human being? You just call a dwarf, you are as cowardly as a mouse!"
"Enough, Lukyan, His Majesty the Pope has asked you to follow my orders and conquer the Orcs, not to have you come and sneer at me. If you think that the Pope's words can be ignored, that you can depose me as the commander of the army, then come and I will abdicate and make way for the virtuous. Davenport exclaimed.
Lukyan immediately fell silent, he could be unruly to anyone, but he did not dare to have any disrespect to the Pope. We are not here to be deserters, if you still want to retreat, then I will lead the Phantom Armor warriors to avenge the destruction of the 500,000 cavalry." β
"Since you are here, it is natural that you will continue to crusade the orcs and make them pay the price of blood. But only if you obey orders and follow my commands. Davenport said in a soothing tone. He didn't want to fall out with Lukiyan, it would be bad for him.
.................. Dividing line ............
God turned, the human army went and returned! Baroque was overjoyed. He already knew that the Holy See's Phantom Armor warrior reinforcements had arrived, and the appearance of these warriors also made him change his plans temporarily.
Scattering the Thunder Eagle Beast Armor Warrior to closely monitor the enemy's movements, the Totem Beast Rak also turned into invisible, quietly infiltrating the human army, and probing the identity of those Phantom Crystal Armor warriors. Although Rak, who was in the state of a spirit beast, did not dare to expose it at all in the face of the strong spiritual power of a million army, it was undoubtedly excellent to secretly inquire about the news. The conversation between Lukiyan and Davenport was soon passed back.
Baroque calls in Dennis and asks for information on Lukiyan. Dennis actually smiled when he heard this order. To the Baroque, he said: "The Baroque master, Lukiyan is a die-hard loyalist of Pope Margus, in the Holy See he is loyal only to the Pope, because he is protected by the Pope, although he is short-tempered and self-serving, but he makes others helpless. Hehe, although this guy is not afraid of death in battle, his temper is too short-tempered, almost a pile of dry firewood, and a little spark can detonate. He was sent to the calm Davenport, and it was not known what the Pope's purpose was. β
Baroque laughed too, and just now he had a headache with Davenport's composure, and immediately came a reckless man who was just a little bit at it. Although the original intention of the Pope should be to let the fierce Lukiyan, who is not afraid of death, act as a fierce general who charges into battle. But he certainly wouldn't have expected the total annihilation of the human cavalry. This time, the combat power of the human race is at its lowest ebb, and it is necessary to gradually restore the confidence in the combat power. That means it takes some patience, but ...... Can that reckless man endure it?(To be continued.) )
