Chapter 117: Ignition in advance

Leofrick's side had a smooth journey.

According to Leon's account, he stopped when he could see the lights of the Prophet's Legion's camp—a position about three miles from the Prophet's Legion.

Later, the doom was awakened with artemisia and Morgan was asked to explain that "they had rescued her from the enemy and that they should report the situation to the Prophet."

Leofrick then said that he had been commissioned by the Countess to deliver food to Lady Bella, and that Morgan was chasing a group of kidnappers on the way, so he came to his aid.

The acting skills of the two are probably not too good, but at least the caliber is quite perfect, although this doom inducer feels that something is wrong, but after seeing hundreds of carriages pulling grain, he does not suspect Leofrick - this baron only brought three hundred soldiers and drove three hundred carriages, and those soldiers were also lightly dressed, and it seemed that they were indeed here to deliver food.

Morgan was now fully aware that these women were not only not normal, but they were not necessarily human beings - his 'baby' had been hit on the head by Leon a few hours earlier, stunned, and had her face completely crooked and pulled back, but she felt like she didn't feel anything, and only remembered that she had been knocked unconscious.

Normal people always have some pain, right?

But the doom inducer touched his whole body for the first time, and after finding no injuries, he didn't move again.

Obviously, it's because they don't feel pain in their bodies!

Moreover, the doom inducer even claimed that she had been attacked while she was sleeping, and that the 'thieves' must have seen it - apparently, she did not know what had happened to her after she fainted, and she did not want to arouse the suspicion of Morgan and Leofrick.

So, with Morgan's active cooperation, Leofrick pretended to be interested in the beauty of the Doom Usher and the guidance of the Three Prophets, and he said that he wanted to receive the power of the gods so that he could establish a greater deed in the Shield Fortress - this is the line that the Lord gave him.

Because this is a very common appeal, there will definitely be many nobles who ask for the guidance of the three prophets with such a desire, especially the border lords in their thirties who are in the prime of life.

After all, every young man aspires to become an invincible hero in the world.

So, the Doom Inducer quickly found another taller woman—if Amy and Klose were here, they would surely recognize the tall Doom Inducer as the one next to Lady Nela.

She is here to confirm the situation and act as a 'guide'.

It was indeed her who did Madame Bella's purchase of food—for she did not ask a word about it, but offered Baron Leofrick a chance......

She said that Lady Bella was with the Prophet and asked Leofric to go in with her with the food—she was lying to Leofric, but it was in line with the lord's plan!

Leofrick, of course, knew that Lady Bella had been taken away by Forsette a few days earlier, and he immediately understood why Leon would say that his operation would go well—the Prophet Legion had been waiting for the arrival of the food that Lady Bella had bought.

In the early hours of the morning, when the sky was slightly dark, Baron Leofric entered the Prophet's camp through the north gate, which was closer to the town of Long River.

There were no knights camped in this direction, probably specifically requested by those women, probably to make it easier to observe the situation in Changhe Town.

And just as the convoy was moving towards the Prophet's camp, "hooohoo...... hooohoo ......", ghostly owl calls sounded one after another, and the night owls relayed back the message.

The Combine began to march in the direction of the Legion of the Prophets, and picked up its pace.

The Three Prophets still did not show up, but they set up tea sets at the door of a lavish tent, apparently to entertain Leofric.

A few dozen meters away, Leofrick saw the legendary Three Prophets with his own eyes.

The faces of the three witches were indeed stunningly beautiful, and the armor on their bodies looked gorgeous and strange, and the dark red lining did not look like cloth or metal, and I don't know what it was made of.

As soon as they entered the camp, they smelled a strong aroma, and the soldiers driving the car coughed one after another.

Leofrick also secretly stuffed a little bit of the grass foam that Leon gave him into his mouth, resisted the stimulation of the crucifixion, did not cough, and looked around.

He smelled a hint of blood.

Presumably the aroma was meant to mask the smell of blood.

The tall doom usher walked up to him and said that the three prophets wanted to treat Baron Leofrick to a cup of tea.

However, Leofrick was very clever and said that he was too dirty after a long journey, and it was inconvenient to drink tea in his stomach, so he still unloaded his food and changed his clothes.

Then he followed a few female soldiers directly to the grain cart near the granary in the camp, where a high tent was built with a waterproof tarpaulin, and the sacks inside were piled up like a mountain, and it was easy to see that this was a warehouse of supplies.

But perhaps it was the scent of the camp that was supposed to have had some effect, or perhaps it was Leofrick's head-to-head approach to the granary that led to the suspicions of the doom-inducer—and with a sweet smile, she showed a serpentine stone beside Leofrick!

However, with the lord's reminder, and Leon sending for him to find a lot of crucifixion, Leofrick certainly knew what that meant.

It's been discovered!

Then do it now!

Of course, the snake heart stone will not be useful, and he and his soldiers, after entering the camp, have the cross artemisia in their mouths, and even chew on the horses.

The cough was not because of the aroma, but because of the irritation of the cruciferous.

Fortunately, at this time, almost all the grain trucks had entered the camp, so the short-term undercover plan was executed in advance in front of the three prophets!

"Get in the car! Ignition! ”

Leofrick didn't care about the doom inducers around him, and directly lifted his black iron spear and began to drive his horse to speed up, galloping wildly in the camp, shouting to his subordinates to take immediate action.

Three hundred soldiers who acted as coachmen lit the tarpaulin-covered firewood behind them.

Then everyone did the same thing - he drew a lit firewood and pumped it hard on the horse's buttocks, and the blindfolded horse pulled the burning cart in severe pain and began to gallop violently, crashing everywhere in the camp.

Then, just as Leon had confessed, they jumped on their horses and cut off the shoulder straps of the cart with a single sword, causing the horses to break away from the carriage.

Led by Leofric, the horses began to gallop in the same direction—to the south.

They had entered through the gate on the north side of the camp, and now that they were surrounded by ignited wagons, so they had no choice but to flee south.

The four-wheeled carriage that had lost its horse was still running around quickly out of inertia, and the dry firewood on the carriage was also burning rapidly by the wind brought by the movement!

Three hundred unmanned and blazing wagons rammed around, and soon the entire camp was set on fire!

The large forces of the Combine have all seen the flames soaring into the sky.

In this early morning, the firelight is as striking as the sunrise!

At least dozens of wagons burned all over the granaries of the Prophet's Legion, and the waterproof sheds made of tarpaulins were soon all ignited, and the rising flames quickly evaporated the morning dew into a white mist, and then spread around at a terrible speed.

The tarpaulin tents that had been piled up were covered in flames almost instantly, and then gradually turned into volcanoes several meters high.

Flying sparks and smoke soon filled the camp.

At the same time, the soldiers on horseback lit the last fire—they threw the firewood they had lit at the tents and the curtains that served as the walls, which had not yet been ignited by the wagons.

The curtain of the wall outside the camp soon burst into flames, and blindfolded horses rushed out of the burnt curtain and stepped directly into the camp of the knights who followed to the south of the camp.

Most of these knights have been awakened and have come out of their tents to check what is going on, and some are shouting 'fire fighting'.

But people are most tired in the early hours of the morning, and they don't have time to put on their armor at all—knight armor in these days is quite cumbersome to wear, and it is very difficult to put it on by yourself, and even if someone helps, it will take at least a few minutes.

That's why these knights had to send their servants to keep vigil and find out about the surrounding area, and the consequences of their night raids were often catastrophic!

Moreover, the fire could not be saved.

The Prophet's Legion's camp was a huge two-hundred-meter-square camp with more than fifty large tents and at least two hundred small tents, as well as two huge stables and a storehouse nearly ten meters high.

Now almost all the tents were on fire, and the hay in the stables and the grain in the storehouses had joined the flames, and the sky was full of flying sparks.

In some places, there were even small deflagrations – such as when mountains of flour bags were burned through by raging flames, and large quantities of dry flour drifted up with the heat.

All kinds of cloth scraps and firewood dust leaves were raised by the fire, burning and floating into the air, and then falling continuously, spreading around this sea of fire, and even igniting the tents of many knights in the surrounding area.

The huge camp was full of flying tongues of fire, and the flames burning near the storehouses and stables were seven or eight meters high, and you could feel hot at a distance of tens of meters, and people could not approach them at all.

This kind of fire, unless it is a modern fire brigade passing through, there is no need to think about extinguishing the fire.

The reaction of the Prophet Legion was quite fast, and seeing that the fire could not be saved, the female soldiers scattered and fled the fire.

Quite a few female soldiers had already chased south and began to fire arrows.

But the female warriors on foot could not catch up with Leofrick, who fled on horseback.

Fortunately, the lord reminded him that the soldiers who came in to set fire were each carrying a shield on their backs, and the arrows shot from behind them occasionally missed, but they either hit the shield or the horse's buttocks, and the battle damage was very small.

Shooting the horse's butt can also increase the speed of the horse - this large animal has a thick hip, and the relative force of the arrow in the same direction in the chase is not strong, so it does not hurt the horse much.

Leofrick led his soldiers to easily fight their way through the battle spear, and in the face of those panicked enemies who had just woken up from their sleep, he probably experienced the feeling of being a god of war.

Only the doom inducers around the knights were not easy to deal with, but they didn't need to deal with either, these women with only one-handed shields and hammers didn't have time to ride their horses, they couldn't stop hundreds of heavy horses.

After a while, a group of doom inducers seemed to be organized together and chased them out on horseback.

Their horses must have been much faster than their horses, but they were not easy to catch up with the soldiers on their horses in the midst of small tents and camps—their horses were smart enough to go around the camp to avoid crashing into tents or other wooden shelves.

This is also the reason why Leon had encountered them patrolling the outermost part of the entire camp area before, and there were small campsites everywhere.

But pulling a horse is different...... They were all blindfolded......

Even if the horses pulling the carts are not flexible, they are generally large horses, and in such small camps set up by the knights outside, it is enough to just crash into them, and those small tents cannot stop such a big guy of one or two thousand pounds.

In fact, if there were shock-absorbing yellow or rubber, and wooden wheels were no longer used, these horses would have been able to pull nearly two tons of weight – they were strong laborers.

It's just that the horse is only strong and strong, but it is generally timid, not fast, afraid of fire and sound, and it is easy to be frightened on the battlefield.

In fact, probably a small part of these horses were frightened by now - although they did not see the fire, the noise and shouting around them was already loud.

But even so, it was okay to run straight forward blindfolded, because Leofrick's mission was done, he just had to run forward, and Leon had told him not to turn back.

The people who have really entered the battlefield have arrived!

In the time that Leofrick had entered the Prophet's camp to set fire and run away, the Combine troops had moved forward for a long distance, and by the light of the blazing fire, they could clearly see the chaotic camp of the Prophet's Legion.

The large force was now less than two miles southeast of the Prophet's Legion and was visible to the naked eye.

In fact, the Prophet Legion also saw the forces of the Combine, the female soldiers who were pursuing Baron Leofric turned around, and some of the knights on the periphery stopped trying to put out the fire and began to gather to the side in a noisy manner.

"The whole army is forward, ready to engage!"

Godric shouted with his sword raised, and then drove his horse to the lead and trotted forward first, holding the horse down.

This is not an order to charge, the charge will only be launched when it is two or three hundred meters close to the enemy, and too long a distance will make both people and horses tired.

In fact, Godric was no longer ready to let the army charge.

This is the order to engage the battle, control the speed and jog for two miles, and hand over all the heavy equipment to the logistics officer, who is in charge of logistics will not continue to move forward.

In fact, if it weren't for the sudden suspicion of the extremely tall Doom Inducer, Leofric would have lit the fire when the Combine arrived—a surprise attack by a strong army outside, and an undercover arson inside, most likely to wipe out the Three Prophets in one wave.

Now that the fire is ignited in advance, the Combine is still two miles away, which is probably about three minutes to give the Prophet Legion about three minutes to react.

Three minutes can actually do a lot of things, such as recalling the elite troops under your command, reorganizing some of the chaotic teams, and equipping some of the knights who are wearing equipment.

And some of the soldiers and horses can be quickly put into the front line for defense, buying more time for the large army.

So at this point, there was no need to charge over the melee and burn the food of the Prophet's legion, which in itself had already achieved the predetermined result.

In fact, the Prophet Legion did not waste those three minutes.

The three prophets quickly abandoned the camp, which had become a sea of fire, and rode fast horses to lead the group through the chaotic camp, surrounded by hundreds of female soldiers, as if to cover something.

And the Three Prophets also recalled all the doom inducers as soon as possible.

The Three Prophets recalled these Doom Inducers in order to give them an order to bewitch the knights and their minions on the outskirts of the camp to fend off the rapidly approaching forces of the Combine.

In fact, it is to take those brainwashed knights as cannon fodder to buy time for their female soldiers, who scattered after the fire in the camp and need to be regrouped.

"Rebirth: The Great Age of Waves"

The role of these Doom Bearers in the ranks of the Three Prophets was largely that of the knights of the nobles.

But the problem is that at the moment, those knights and their subordinates don't even have much equipment, and they can't actually form combat power......

And in the event of a sudden fire, these knights and their servants are now all in a mess.

These unsane creatures are hard to control in this chaotic environment, especially after the Doom Primers were recalled by the Three Prophets and left them briefly.

The two hundred knights did not know each other, and it was like a large group of tourists camping in the scenic area and encountering a natural disaster, all of them were scurrying around in their own way, and the scene was basically equivalent to the scene of the disaster.

Some were shouting, presumably looking for his 'baby' as Morgan had done before, some were fleeing for their lives in panic, perhaps frightened by the fire, and some were harassing the rest of the knights, apparently intending to grab some equipment to arm themselves.

There were even those who ran naked into the ranks of the Three Prophets, where hundreds of beauties all looked stunning...... But these stupid fools who ran naked past were all killed directly.

But after two minutes, most of the Doomers were ordered to return to the ranks of the knights, and some of them quickly settled down.

I don't know if they are protecting the beauties around them, or for their dreams...... It is also possible to justify your choice.

Anyway, many men took up arms and gathered in front of these 'beauties' of the Prophetic Legion.

Even though most of them are wearing only underwear.

Of course, there are still a lot of people who are messing around and not obeying orders, especially the miscellaneous weapons brought by the knights.

And one of the three prophets, a witch armed with a strange-shaped saber, with hundreds of chainmail women armed with foreign two-handed sabers or short-handled axes, directly started to kill those men who did not obey the command, and more than a dozen men running around were instantly cut to the ground.

This was the right thing to do, the Prophet Legion had to keep the chaos under control, or it would be difficult for even their own female soldiers to complete their pre-battle preparations—most of the female soldiers had been scattered to the outlying camps because the camp had been set on fire, and they were scattered by these chaotic men.

This group of cronies and female soldiers began to wander around, and as long as they saw men running around in confusion, they would attack directly, and their attitude was quite resolute.

Subsequently, more and more female soldiers were gathered behind them.

The killing of their own people by these female soldiers really calmed the chaotic scene, but it also made many knights collapse directly - they were just panicked, but after seeing the killing of female soldiers, they were scared......

Because there are a small number of knights who died at the hands of their doom and me.
