Chapter 100: The Last Step

The two sides of Paddington, which had been fighting for more than a year, suddenly subsided the fighting, and their respective armies retreated fifty miles. They proclaim that they need to give the army a break, but only a few people know the real reason.

When it was confirmed that Schaumberg's army had really retreated, General Suarez, the son of the elder Jean, relented and accepted the order to take 5,000 elite soldiers to ambush somewhere. At this time, the 10,000 troops gathered by the northern highlanders were also ready for everything, and they hid in the dense forests on both sides of the passage with dangerous terrain somewhere!

Baroque had rushed back to join Susan and them. After convincing Schaumberg to withdraw his troops, he also went to the Red River Valley to visit Miss Saila's father, Viscount Miro, and inquire about Susan's daughter, Claire.

Sera had been away with the archmage Lady Belinda for nearly two years, during which time she did return to visit her father once. Miro had heard from her daughter that Princess Claire was doing well in the kingdom of Ebral, and because of her outstanding talent, she had already crossed the threshold of a magic apprenticeship before she was nine years old and became a real magician. Now he is still studying hard under the care of Mrs. Belinda. It is said that King Alberon was very fond of this clever and beautiful little girl, and almost doted on her as his own daughter.

Susan is full of joy and sorrow, and she is comforted by her daughter's good life, but it is always sad that her relatives are far away. Baroque comforted her: "Soon, soon, when we have cleaned up the Grand Duke of Hansa and taken control of this principality, you will send someone to bring Claire back to reunite with you." ”............

"Lord Aragon, then I will take my leave. Savadi bowed to Baroque who had transformed into the Ranger Aragon. A few days later, he and Pahomi had led the Legion of Brokenhorn Bucks to the Northern Highlands with Archduke Morrison, and he himself had come to discuss with Baroque about the next ambush on the grounds that he had gone to visit Queen Susan first and had sent a request for Archduke Morrison to visit him in advance!

Baroque nodded, watching Savaty leave. It seems that there are a few human subordinates around him who are still very good, and some things that are inconvenient for orcs to do can be done by humans. In the future, if its power grows, it seems that it should recruit more human talents - of course, this world is also realistic, as long as enough benefits are paid, most of the human race does not care about serving the orcs.

They were now on a road to the northern highlands. Ten thousand of the strongest Highlanders have set up an ambush in the dense forests on both sides. The five thousand Paddington cavalry, led by General Suarez, was still hiding in a valley a few dozen miles away. It couldn't be helped, there was no place around here, and there was no place for them to hide except for the dense forest in front of them. So I had to hide in a relatively distant place first. They would bypass the Hanseatic legions from the rear when they were blocked, blocking their retreat and trying to annihilate their entire army. ........................

The Broken Horn Bucks Legion is the most powerful and only elite legion in the Duchy of Hanseas, with 10,000 men all made up of cavalry. The formation of this legion almost exhausted Morrisson's hard work and Hansea's treasury, which was also the most proud work of the Grand Duke Morisson. He went to study at the Knight Academy in Audria and met Roxana, who was only a captain of the Centurion at the time. Because of the deliberate relationship with Roxana. Their friendship is not bad.

Later, with the help of his family and the support he received from Prime Minister Severus, Roxana became the captain of the [Crown Bucks] legion. Archduke Morrison had also returned to China to inherit the throne of the Grand Duke, and he ambitiously began to form an elite army belonging to the Duchy of Hanseas. and pleaded with Emperor Audria for help, and Emperor Antony assigned officers from the Crown Bucks Army to help Morrison train the army. Because he is a good friend with Roxana, plus Morrison spares no expense in bribes and contributions. Roxana finally didn't hide all his secrets, and after simplifying the exclusive battle formation of the crown bucks, the Kudore Heavy Cavalry Battle Formation, he taught it to the Hansa people. This is also the origin of the name of the [Broken Horn Stag] legion, and they have a deep connection with the crown stag.

Even if it can't match the powerful heavy cavalry of the Crown Stag, the strength of the only elite legion of the Hansa should not be underestimated. Baroque never despised his opponents, he always used all means against his enemies. The Highlanders are not afraid of death. But he couldn't face the Broken Horn Bucks cavalry that was onslaught, so he chose this narrow road as an ambush site. And he was very vicious to have people dig out of the road countless small pits the size of bowls, which could only fit a horse's hoof. Once a running horse is trapped, there is no second choice but to break the horse's leg.

Archduke Morrisson, escorted by the legions, confidently rushed to the northern highlands. He was indeed energetic and ambitious when he was young, but after he formed the Broken Horn Stag Army, he slackened and began to chase beautiful women and hold banquets and dances, enjoying all kinds of luxurious and erosive lives. The previously shrewd head is gradually filled with wine, and he is almost surrounded by flattering villains. There are no subordinates with real talents. This may also be the reason why the people of the Duchy of Hanseasa are as poor as ever, so that the nobles do not care about the lives of the poor.

The soldiers of the Broken Horn Bucks are indeed elite, but the captain who commands them, the commander. And the legionnaires are all incompetent aristocratic waste. Like a pack of wolves commanded by a sheep, can you expect them to surprise you?

The magician of Savatdy had returned, and had good news for the Archduke Hanseas—Queen Susan had agreed to accept his visit, but on the condition that the murderer who had attacked her carriage and killed the three princes would be handed over.

Grand Duke Morrison had long since brought a dozen surviving soldiers and imprisoned them in the army. This visit to Queen Susan would have hanged them in front of her. Presumably if you get Queen Susan's forgiveness, then the rest will be much easier............!

Dreaming of a beautiful woman, Morrison even urged him to march faster. Anyway, they are all cavalry, and the Grand Duke himself has the strength of the earth warrior level, so he doesn't feel tired. But the two sons who followed him to watch the excitement were a little unbearable. They are almost useless, they don't do anything other than chase women and drink for pleasure, they are not even vindictive warriors themselves, and if it weren't for their aristocratic status, no one would pay attention to them.

The captain of the Broken Horn Bucks Legion was a good friend of Grand Duke Morrison back then, and he was quite capable. At the beginning, he seriously sent scouts to explore the way, and the back road was always smooth and vigilant. But as the two stupid pig sons of the Grand Duke kept complaining because of their hard work, wantonly disrupting and even meddling in the command of the legion, the Grand Duke Morrison always got together with the two magicians to talk secretly, so he didn't bother to pay attention to the affairs of the legion. This completely troubled the Legion Commander. He could not afford to offend the two sole heirs of the Grand Duke, so he finally gave up on himself and let them be blindly commanded. Anyway, in his opinion, there will be no danger around, so let them make trouble!

In this situation, they gradually walked into an ambush circle deliberately prepared by some orcs. When the ambush suddenly came, and a large number of highlanders wearing animal skins and bird feathers came over, the Broken Horn Stag Legion was almost completely stunned, and suffered heavy casualties in an instant!

Soldiers are to obey the orders of the officers, but their captains and commanders are gilded. After the surprise attack, it is only known that the panicked shouts order the soldiers to block the enemy and attack, as for the specific command at all. So much so that the soldiers, who didn't know what to do, even stood there in a daze. There are very few capable Commanders who have gathered soldiers in the chaos, but the Sneak Attackers have targeted them. The most ferocious ones were the orcs, all of whom were beastly warriors, wielding terrifying axes in their hands, easily slashing all the Hansa soldiers who stood in their way.

Ordinary soldiers would never be able to fight against the powerful orcs if they did not form a battle formation to resist the enemy. Finally enough soldiers were gathered, and they formed the smallest hundred-man heavy cavalry formation to charge at the attacking highlanders. But the war horse has just picked up the speed. They fell to the ground one after another, and the horses turned on their backs, and everywhere there was the terrible neighing of the horses, and their hooves fell into some fine deep pits at some point, and their calves were broken, and Bai Sensen's stubble was exposed.

Damn the highlanders dug holes in the ground! The Hansa soldiers were furious, but to no avail. The war horse could not be attacked, and the Cudore battle array lost its effect. They had to abandon their horses, and the cavalry turned into infantry, forming an unfamiliar ordinary [Odoil Battle Array] to block the enemy. But there is no round shield. The tower shield and the triangular shield, the power of the Odoyle battle array was also greatly reduced, and it was unable to stop the ferocious highland barbarians from attacking.

There was a cheer of the enemy from the front, and the Grand Duke Morrison was defeated and captured alive by the orcs. Just as he was seizing the place to show the public, the Severed Horn Buck Legion Commander knew that there was no way out, and immediately ordered a breakthrough to the rear. As long as you flee back, you can immediately ask for help from the Odria Empire, and there is still hope to negotiate with the highland barbarians to redeem the Grand Duke.

The highlanders only wantonly slaughtered the soldiers who did not have time to escape, and did not pursue the thousands of remnants led by the regimental commander. Before the commander of the regiment could get lucky, he suffered a blow to the head -- the Paddington soldiers led by General Suarez had blocked their retreat!

The ambush was a resounding victory. Due to familiarity with the environment. The Highlanders spilled out a large number of tribesmen to hunt for them, and few Hanseasa soldiers fled. Thousands of men were taken prisoner, Archduke Morrison was captured alive, and the courtiers who followed him were killed and wounded in the rebellion. The two poor princes had no one to protect them in the chaos, and they were trampled to death by their horses, and by the time their bodies were found, they were already miserable!

Grand Duke Morrison was defeated by Zainzu, broke both of his legs and threw it in front of Baroque and Susan. There was no one else around, all of them were Baroque henchmen orcs!

Grand Duke Morrison raised his head, and when he saw Savaty and Pahomi Magician standing behind Baroque with a smile and a groan, he was not an idiot, and he didn't know that he had completely fallen into someone else's trap?

"Tell me, what do you want?" Morrison simply sat down on the ground and spoke hoarsely.

"Your Excellency Morrison, when your army killed my three children, did you ever think that there would be today? I don't want anything, I just want revenge? Do you understand? I just want revenge. If you kill my son, I will destroy the family of the Grand Duke of Hanseas. Your principality will eventually fall into my hands, and I will let you die with nothing!" exclaimed Susan, who had taken revenge, with tears streaming down her eyes as she thought of the three little princes who had died.

"Hehe, you can kill me, but if you want to annex the Duchy of Hansea, that's a dream. Mad woman, do you think the Audria Empire will agree?" Morrisson, knowing that he was not going to escape death, simply let go, and shouted mockingly.

Baroque on the side suddenly walked up to Grand Duke Morrison and said to him with a smile: "Don't be happy yet, let you see something." He just wiped his face, and saw a faint light flash, and the young and handsome face had changed dramatically in the next moment—the face of the Grand Duke Morrison was exactly the same!

Suddenly, Morrisson's face was bloodless, he knew the purpose of these people! )
