Chapter 241: Ambush
"How?" asked the Deputy Legion Commander Enste Baria, a member of the Barian royal family, the cousin of Evel, who became the Deputy Legion at a young age, the pride of the royal family, and a powerful swordsman himself. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Kane pointed to the map of the western realm and said slowly: "The defensive ability of this defense line is very strong, the legion cannot break through in a short time, the bayonet army is rushing to help, the fighter plane is fleeting, and being delayed here is a strategic loss, since the Pegasus Legion is squatting in the defense line, we can bypass the defense line and go straight to the empty Falling Dragon City." ”
"This is tantamount to exposing one's back to the Lasses," Enste frowned, "If the commander of the defensive line is bold and sends his troops in pursuit, we will be flanked from front to rear." ”
Kane nodded, "So we have to leave behind, the camp outside the defense line can't be abandoned, we have to leave dozens of people, light a fire every day and raise smoke, create the illusion that we haven't left, and confuse the commander of the defense line, the kid named Ivo." ”
"Then we took advantage of the darkness to quietly bypass the defensive line, and the legion was divided into two troops, one of which I led straight to Luolong City, and the other army set up an ambush in the middle of the road, and the ambush of the men who might pursue the defense line caught them off guard. ”
Enst's eyes lit up, and he immediately understood what Kane meant, and said: "There are many operational aspects of this tactic. ”
Kane: "The initiative is in our hands, if the defence is weakened, we will attack the dragon directly, if the defence is attacked, we will give him a head-on attack, no matter what, we will definitely get the result." ”
The mid-level officers admired Kane's tactical ability, thinking that Kane deserved to be the legendary duke of the kingdom.
Enste clenched his fists and pounded on his breastplate and said confidently: "I am willing to lead the troops in an ambush." ”
"Good. ”
......
For two days, the Barians did not attack, and after the first few victories, the confidence of the guards in the territory was built, and they all felt that this was a sign of the Barian helplessness.
That evening, Ivo came to the long wall, and the guards in front of him did not see him, and talked to themselves.
"Today the Barians are not moving. ”
"Hmph, they must have been scared. ”
"Your Excellency, Lord Lord, is so powerful that even the legendary Duke of Baria can't deal with it. ”
Ivo walked over, and the guards hurriedly shut up and straightened up, in awe.
"How long has it been since the enemy moved?" Ivo asked.
"It's been two days. ”
Ivo frowned, time is precious to the Baryans, he didn't believe that Kane would be silent for two days, he looked at the Barian camp from afar, only to see the smoke curling under the dusk, and the flickering pillars of smoke were blown away by the wind, it seemed that the Barians had eaten.
Several guards looked at the Barian camp with some jealousy, "I'm so hungry, we still have to finish standing guard before we can eat." ”
Ivo's face was calm, and he said, "Blow the horn and assemble." ”
Several guards were stunned for a moment, and hurriedly blew the horn, the soldiers took action, and the high-ranking people in the territory hurriedly gathered.
As soon as they met, Severn III asked, "Lord Ivo, what happened?"
Ivo's tone was heavy, "The Barians are gone. ”
Everyone looked at each other, not understanding what Ivo meant, and Lucian pointed to the Barria camp, "Isn't that still smoking?" ”
Ivo glared at him and exclaimed, "Have you ever seen cooking without smell?"
Everyone was shocked, hurriedly lay on the city wall, smelled the smell, and sure enough, there was no fragrance wafting out of the Barya camp, and tens of thousands of people buried the pot to cook, it was impossible that there was no smell.
There is only one explanation, the Barians have left.
The bear's sense of smell made Ivo very keen, and he used his sense of smell to distinguish the enemy.
Ivo decisively ordered, "All attack!"
The gates of the defensive line opened, and the guards slaughtered the Barian camp with no resistance.
There were only a few dozen soldiers left behind in the Barya camp, all of whom were captured alive, and the camp was full of pots and firewood, which was simply confusing.
Ivo glanced at the guards on the city wall, and all of them bowed their heads in shame, they didn't notice it for two whole days, and the lord only came for a few minutes before he found out about the situation.
The gap is too big.
Severn III was surprised, "Where have they gone?"
"Since we are left in the camp to confuse us, there is only one possibility. ”
Ivo and Lucian looked at each other, both of them with heavy faces, "They bypassed the defense line and went straight to the hinterland of the West, and the target could only be Falling Dragon City." ”
Severn III was shocked, his eyes were terrified, Luolong City is the last big city of Lasses, most of the nobles who fled are in Luolong City, if Luolong City is captured, it will lose the last talents and nobles of the kingdom, it is the last straw that crushes the camel, and it is almost not far from the death of the country.
"This must not be allowed to happen!" Lucian slapped the wall hard, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly said: "I will immediately lead the Pegasus Legion to pursue, and I can form a two-sided situation with Falling Dragon City!"
"That makes sense!" said Severn III, "maybe this is our chance." ”
The more the two of them talked, the more excited they became, Ivo leaned against the wall battlement, and directly poured cold water: "Don't think about it, that old man Kane has already thought of everything you can think, I dare to guarantee that on the way from the defense line to Luolong City, he has already arranged an ambush." ”
The king and Lucian opened their mouths, annoyed.
Ivo touched his chin, amazed at Kane's tactical prowess.
Hiding from the sky and crossing the sea, secretly Chen Cang, and luring the snake out of the hole, does the world also have thirty-six plans?
"Then we can't do nothing!" said Lucian.
Ivo nodded, "We need to chase time, maybe we can try...... Divide the enemy and set up an ambush with deception. ”
The two looked at each other, and although they didn't understand, they felt that Ivo already had a plan.
......
A few days later.
Kane led the Barria Legion of more than 20,000 men on a rapid march through the hinterland of the West, quickly approaching the city of Falling Dragon.
He connected to the teleportation badge and communicated with Enst, who had been left in ambush halfway.
"Did the pursuers ambush the line of defense?"
"Not yet, we're still waiting. ”
"Did you find out that the other party did?"
"The scouts didn't find out"
Kane frowned, the soldiers left behind in the camp were carrying teleportation badges, and when they were exposed, Kane had already received the news, and that was several days ago.
The place where Enste was ambushed was only about a day's walk away from the defensive line, and it was impossible that even the scouts hadn't discovered it, unless the defensive line chose to shrink down.
Suddenly, Kane Lerma stopped, his composure shattered, and he was shocked.
He thought of a possibility......
In a few days, he and Enst's troops were already very far apart.
Could it be ......
Kane's heart had an expression that Ivo couldn't see, and after a hundred battles, he shuddered, and hurriedly shouted: "The whole army obeys the order, turn around!"
He hurriedly connected to the communication badge and sent a message to Enst.
"Give up the ambush and meet right away. ”
Meanwhile.
To the west of the line of defense was a place called Wolf's Ridge, where Barria's second army lay in ambush, with 10,000 men.
The terrain of Wolf's Ridge is like the back of a wild wolf, with steep roads and dense trees, suitable for ambushes.
Enstein put down the communication badge, his face was puzzled, he didn't understand why he suddenly gave up the ambush, but the military order was like a mountain, and he was about to give the order to retreat, when the lookout suddenly whispered: "Someone is coming!"
Enst's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly poked his head out of the hillside and looked at the road.
Probably a few thousand horsemen in the armor of Lasses were hurrying on their horses, in a hurry, eager to whip their horses.
Enstein recognized that these cavalrymen belonged to the Pegasus Legion, his face was slightly happy, this was the best time for an ambush, he forgot Kane's order in a blink of an eye, and shouted in a low voice: "Do it!"
The Barians immediately rushed out from behind the hillside, shouting for the heavens and waving their banners.
Thousands of Pegasus cavalry were suddenly thrown into confusion.
