Chapter 197: The Storm (17)

As Marl had expected, as soon as he walked on his front foot, the cavalry of the Iron Shield Legion on his back foot arrived. However, Marl retreated just in time, and the cavalry of the Iron Shield Corps pounced.

Pablo also regretted that if the dwarves were a little late, he would have eaten them.

However, on the way back, Marr turned back and pointed straight at the Wind Knight. Relying on the dwarves' extraordinary stamina, Mar once again tested the Wind Knight Leader. This time the losses were not as large as the last one, but unfortunately they ran into the cavalry that rushed back. chased after Mar Sanli and made Mar disgraced. Fortunately, the cavalry had exhausted their strength, otherwise their casualties would have been more than so small.

Just when Marshall thought the dwarves would finally stop, Mar miraculously appeared in front of Pablo.

Caught Pablo, who wanted to repair the defense, off guard, and after paying some price, forced the dwarves back. When the whole line thought that the dwarves were coming again, Marr ordered the whole army to go back.

Marshall slapped the table heavily, and the comments he had made about the dwarves from his fight with them more than twenty years ago came out of his mouth.

"These dwarves can run better than horses!"

The dwarve's attack is a mess, and the dwarve's constant return of the carbine always catches people off guard, but the point is that you don't know where he'll attack next.

Marshall also encountered this tactic decades ago, and the only way to defuse it was to rely on crowds. As long as there are enough cavalry, they can catch this group of dwarves. But not now, he's nervous. Now it's a matter of luck to send the cavalry to a line of defense in advance. Wait for the rabbit!

As Marshall had expected, Mar decided to lead the dwarves to do it again. Didn't play enough yesterday. He decided today that he would no longer run with a few hits like he did yesterday.

Marr first decided to sharpen his knife with the Wind Knight's Collar, a place he had already tried yesterday, the weakest point of defense, just right for the soldiers to see blood.

Then there are tens of thousands of dwarfs running across the grassland, which is very spectacular.

The Wind Knight is a farm on a high hill with several windmills that use the power of the wind to drive water. However, due to yesterday's dwarven attack, all of them have been destroyed. Huge blades were stuck straight into the ground.

Today, Marl once again landed on the land, and fought back and forth with the defenders, and even gained the upper hand for a while.

This is a coalition of the lord's private soldiers, and its own combat effectiveness is not good, plus it is loosely organized, so it is naturally not an opponent of the dwarves. Therefore, the Marshall will also garrison such troops to guard the Wind Knights.

They don't expect anything they can do, as long as the enemy dares to smuggle through here and block it a little, and wait until reinforcements arrive.

Yesterday this group of soldiers had already been frightened, not to mention the fact that this time the dwarves were coming in a rage.

The commander of these lords' private soldiers hurriedly said to Duke.

"Lord Duke, ask General Marshall for help, we can't stand it. ”

Of course, Duke would not have agreed to such a request, he could see that this time the dwarves were just a temptation, and if he really wanted to pay attention to the Wind Knights, at least 80,000 people. But today's dwarves are up to 40,000 people.

Duke said slowly.

"Do you see I'm in a hurry, if the dwarves could take it, I would have asked General Marshall for help a long time ago, and I still need to say it. Now I can still talk to you calmly, and it shows that the dwarves can't attack at all, and you will retreat after a while. ”

Duke's self-confidence undoubtedly gave these officers a lot of confidence, and they half-believed Duke. After a while, the dwarves did withdraw their troops.

The officers hurriedly said.

"It's still Lord Duke who is wise and knows things like a god!"

"Yes, yes. ”

......

After attacking the Wind Knights, Mar decided to go to Stone Mountain City to test the temptation, but the main reason why he didn't go yesterday was because of the strong defenses there, and many Rune coalition troops were stationed there. It's just a thorn ball.

But today he decided to check it out.

Tens of thousands of dwarves marched more than 30 miles without stopping. I don't know how many lawns have been trampled.

Stone Hill is considered a major export of trade with the Papal States and Ortunno, but the Papal States themselves are self-sufficient, so there is not much trade with Rune, and the main trade between Ortuno and Rune is iron and coal. However, Rune did not reach the industrial level, so it did not consume much coal, so Stone Mountain City was far less prosperous than Vasser, but like Nolan before. However, the defense of Stone Mountain City is good, so Marshall can hold Stone Mountain City with a little repair.

Marr looked at the city wall and felt that it was better not to be tough, because his own few people were not enough for others to stuff their teeth.

Then the dwarves retreated, leaving behind a puff of dust that drifted in the wind, and fought with a group of Rune coalitions who had fought their own statues but were released by pigeons.

Marr came back between the Wind Knights and Stone Mountain City, where the thin defensive line was garrisoned by only two or three thousand men per kilometer. Although well equipped, Mal felt that he could barely touch it.

But he felt that something was wrong today, like something was missing.

It's like a beautiful woman who feels a little lonely and wonders why there is no hooligan following her. Of course, Marr is not as filthy as one of the authors, but he feels that the cavalry of the Rune coalition is not in front of his eyes today.

Didn't you run into it yesterday in the Wind Knight Collar, why didn't you have it today?

Although Marr is old, his brain cells are still active. Immediately said to the adjutant.

"Retreat, retreat!"

The horn of the attack that had just been blown suddenly changed the rhythm.

The dwarf who was still fanatically shouting Yagli! was a little confused, and he withdrew without even eating the gun on the other side?

But in the next second, they felt that they had lost two legs, and the cavalry suddenly rushed out from behind the defensive line.

The dwarf was also taken aback, although he was shocked in his heart, his legs were not weak, and he ran fast.

Marr reacted in time, otherwise it wouldn't have been a matter of losing thousands of people. Perhaps the Dragon's Breath and the Iron Shield Legion are about to make history of capturing Ortunno's first-class inquisitors.

Now, of course, it's a pity that they missed the opportunity to make history. Pablo also missed out on the opportunity to make a name for himself.

But none of this was known to the Rune coalition.

After being run over all the way, Mal was finally able to stop and catch his breath.

It was just noon, and I simply ate dry food. After taking a break on the spot, he decided to find a place to come back, thinking that he would definitely be laughed at by Camille if he went back like this.

So the defenders led by the Wind Knight were the targets of abuse again.

The officer complained to Duke.

"Lord Duke, didn't you say that the dwarves would retreat, why are they back now? ”

Duke said as a matter of course.

"I said they'd retreat, but I didn't say they wouldn't come back. ”

The officers seemed to think the same way. But he still cried and mourned.

Duke reassured.

"Don't worry, you hold back a little longer, and the dwarven legions are guaranteed to retreat again. ”

"Then will they come next time? ”

"Well, this.... Let's see the mood of the general opposite. ”

"That is to say, if the general on the other side is in a good mood, he will not come to fight us!"

"No, it's just going to hit harder. Because he has found a flaw in us. ”
