Chapter 207: The Fall of the Deep Blue Province

When Thunder exiled himself from the fire elemental plane, one of the biggest wars between the Empire and the Minotaurs broke out when the Terrans were caught off guard!

The minotaurs of Dante's province finally drained the last of Dante's blood, and large swathes of winter wheat served as their military rations, and the Terrans who had starved to death added food to them.

Instead of starving, these attacking minotaurs ate better than ever, and in this case, the minotaurs were in an unusually high spirit.

They directly abandoned the already lifeless land of Dante's province and joined up with the army of the Minotaurs of the Deep Blue Province on the front line.

The gray land of Dante's province was a mess, full of charred black marks left by the minotaur arson, and the people of the empire, who had escaped hiding in the middle of nowhere, returned to the village where they had lived, and found that they had lost everything they once had, and wept and mourned for a long time.

The tragic death of the people was really dead, and the rude and brutal Minotaur took all the Terran corpses away to serve as their rations.

If you look at these minotaurs through the eyes of a human race, they are rude, stupid, greedy, belligerent, and even, dehumanizing.

The Minotaur wreaked havoc in Dante's province for half a month, completely destroying Dante's province, which had just recovered a little vitality, and less than one in a hundred were still alive.

In the Deep Blue Province, the Minotaur and the Terran each occupy half of the province's territory, and all the soldiers from the surrounding provinces have been transferred here.

Even so, the situation is still not optimistic, because the combat effectiveness of the Minotaurs is too strong, and the imperial generals who cannot accept the casualty ratio several times can only maintain this situation and resolutely defend.

If this situation can continue to stalemate, it will be fine, because the joint expeditionary force of Thunder and the Duke of Habsburg and the Steyrs is heading for the Deep Blue Province.

However, the Combined Expeditionary Force, even if it maintains a high-intensity march, will take at least ten days to arrive, if proper rest is taken into account. It can take anywhere from twelve to fourteen days, which is a fatal time difference.

His Majesty Xin Lian was no longer so afraid of the Minotaur because of the excitement of Chris's victory, and he was ambitious to slaughter the Minotaur. There was even a counteroffensive plan to expand the territory.

In order to win this battle, the empire has made a bloody investment, and almost every province has sent soldiers to the dark blue province in a steady stream.

At this time, the whole empire was full of confidence in this battle. Because the superiority in forces is too obvious.

There were more than 200,000 soldiers on the Empire's side, while the number of Minotaurs was estimated to be only 5 to 70,000.

If it dragged on, the burden of military rations would be extremely large, so the generals on the front line decided to start an all-out war with the Minotaurs after discussion.

Even the old Duke Auguste and others had an attitude of decisive battle, and even set off to rush to the front line to suppress the formation, but before he could arrive, he had already encountered the rout of the Terran army.

The converging army of the Minotaurs launched a surprise attack on the Terrans overnight. The tall minotaur looked even more terrifying in the night, and came out of the darkness like a terrifying monster.

The city wall several meters high still could not stop the footsteps of the minotaurs, and they rudely raised the blunt weapon in their hands and slammed the city wall with great force, because there were so many minotaurs that a few rounds of knocking could actually collapse the city wall that the human race was afraid of.

Originally, it was fine, but in the event of a surprise attack at night, although the soldiers would definitely panic, the torches were lit up. If the low-level non-commissioned officer scolds for a while, the Terran soldiers will be able to prepare immediately.

However, the Minotaur attack was so decisive that they devoted almost all of their forces to this night attack. The patrols scattered by the Terrans also did not return, and they could not send back warning messages, and the city wall only blocked the Minotaur for a few minutes.

Without the protection of the city walls, the Terran soldiers suffered especially when they fought the Minotaurs, who always attacked from a high position.

This sudden change completely disrupted the layout of the human race, and those minotaurs really didn't make any sense. There was no news before the night attack, and it is even possible that they did not have this plan before, maybe it was an improvised idea after the confluence of the armies.

However, it has to be said that the night attack of the Minotaurs is a classic battle that can go down in history, they use their height to distinguish between friend and foe, and use violence to bulldoze all obstacles.

The more than 200,000 soldiers of the Terran are not concentrated together, and there are many of them who have not fought with the Minotaurs, and the soldiers who have fought with the Minotaurs and survived by luck have a psychological shadow on the Minotaurs, so when the city wall collapses, it will also collapse with the morale of the Terran soldiers.

In this case, even if there are more Terran soldiers, it is useless, and the defeat is like a mountain.

The generals simply called on a group of newly assembled soldiers to launch a fearless counter-charge, the armor was untidy, the morale was low, and their counter-charge was as if they were in a hurry to die a heroic death.

However, it was this part of the fearless warriors who won a chance for more soldiers to escape, otherwise, there would not have been so many routs to escape, and the fierce battle only lasted less than half an hour, and the Terran side was either killed or fled.

The casualties of the minotaurs are actually not small, if they are well prepared, the soldiers are a little braver, at least they can inflict heavy losses on these minotaurs.

There weren't so many ifs, the Minotaur night attack was successful, and the Terrans were defeated.

The defense line that had been stalemate collapsed, and the entire Deep Blue Province fell.

It was news of a magnitude 10 earthquake, and at daybreak, the results began to spread throughout the empire with countless routs.

It seemed that overnight, all those high-pitched voices were gone, the bustling streets became depressed, the nobles' balls and entertainment were canceled one after another, and even His Majesty Xin Lian in the imperial capital panicked.

What about the good ones who are sure to win?

This result is completely different from everyone's psychological expectations, and some people scolded the Minotaur for being despicable and actually attacked at night.

However, people with deep thoughts will sigh in their hearts, at that time, there were so many strong people sitting on the front line, and so many patrols roaming around, and as a result, the Minotaur had no brains to attack at night, and all the hopes of the human race were destroyed.

Almost all of those generals were killed, and even if there were still alive, it was estimated that they would not have the courage to come forward again, as long as they stood up, the spit of the whole country could drown him alive.

This result is really unacceptable, even the Habsburg Duke who was in a hurry fell into a long silence, and before the thunder told him that the front line might collapse, he still didn't think so, but now?

The facts tell him that the front line is not likely to collapse, but it has already collapsed!

The defense line of the Deep Blue Province no longer exists, the Terrans are defeated, and the Deep Blue Province is lost. (To be continued.) )
