Chapter 440: Never Go Forward

A few days ago, the Landis forcibly landed in Osgilia, and Salvatore and Hughes saw that the situation was not good, so they simply took the initiative to evacuate the imperial capital. Landis's army and the remnants of the city's defenders, led by Adric, were then able to join forces.

At that time, there were various rebel forces entrenched in the city of Osgilia, not subordinate to each other, fighting for territory, and the Landis suddenly landed and killed, Salvatore and Hughes saw the opportunity to withdraw directly, and the other rebels did not move as fast as those two guys.

After Adric and the Landis joined forces, they soon launched an offensive, fighting in the streets of the city for several days, and the rebels in the city were defeated. First, the rebels were forced to land by the Landisians, which caused their morale to be low and the morale of the army was shaken; second, they were entrenched in Osgilia for several days, and the rebels of all walks of life and the officers and men of the whole army had made a windfall and had already made a fortune! Once Adric launched a counteroffensive, the rebels fought separately, and the pockets of the upper and lower sergeants were stuffed with looted property, where were they willing to fight desperately to the death?

The results speak for themselves.

Within a few days, the empire recaptured the city defenses of Osgilia, and many of the rebels in the city were annihilated, and there were even cases of small groups of rebels being directly surrounded and surrendered. The rest of the rebels had no choice but to evacuate and flee from Osgilia, relinquishing the city they had already occupied.

The morale of the defenders was greatly shaken, and the morale of the rebels was greatly reduced.

The ensuing battle seemed to have reverted to the situation before the destruction of Osgilia, with the defenders inside the city facing off against the rebels outside the city.

It's just that this decision, the situation seems to be the same, but in fact it is very different.

The Landis people on the sea then had reinforcements arrived, and the troops before and after the increase in the city, the Landis army landed in the city has reached about 40,000, and with the addition of such a new force, the rebels have lost to Osgilia, and even the two leader-level figures of Salvatore and Hughes have been discouraged, and the rest of the rebel leaders naturally have no intention of fighting.

Only three days after leaving the city, Salvatore and Hughes directly led their troops to withdraw from the coalition camp and return to their own territory.

Before leaving, Salvador didn't say anything, but Hughes hated it in his heart, pointing at the leaders of the rest of the rebels and scolding: "It won't be long before you stupid pigs will pay for your short-sightedness and greed!!"

(When Char heard this, he finally understood why he led people south, and it was so easy all the way, but why he encountered resistance after entering the Armenian Military District, it turned out that Hughes himself had returned to his lair to sit down.) )

After the departure of the two largest rebels, there was no leader in the rebel coalition camp, but for several days there were endless internal quarrels, and everyone's opinions could not be unified, some thought that they should continue to fight, and some felt that they had reaped enough benefits and could withdraw their troops and go home.

With Landis's fresh reinforcements in the city, the balance of forces between the two sides has also changed, although on paper the rebels still have a large advantage in strength, but in fact, the morale, fighting spirit, and determination of the two sides can no longer be compared.

And the rebels have no will to fight, Adric is becoming more and more courageous, and has been out of the city with the Landis coalition army for several days to meet the battle, and the rebels have fought a few battles under the city, and the rebels are all defeated. Although there are many rebels, their hearts are not even, and the leaders of all walks of life have the selfish desire to preserve their strength, where can they beat Adric?

Adric took the opportunity to expand his strength, sent a small group of men and horses out of the city, and entrenched in the northwest of Osgilia Butler and Sosia of the Qinwang's division got in touch, Butler and Sosia originally thought that the imperial capital had been lost, had already made up their minds to repay the country with death, and was about to pack up the people, they were going to go to the imperial capital and the rebels in the near future, but it was just a death, asking for a peace of mind, where did he think that the situation actually turned over again, and under the great joy, he immediately pulled up the troops and moved closer to Osgiria。

The rebel army that was originally in charge of deterrence in front of them had already retreated, and the two of them easily pulled the troops to the imperial capital this time, and the rebels did not have any intention of obstructing the army when they entered the city.

But in fact, for Adrick, it was only when he was able to bring Butler and Sosia troops into the city that he was really relieved!

The reason is simple: the balance of power in the city is so disturbing!

The 40,000 Lantis army is in the city, although it is an "allied army," but the defenders in Adric's hands are full of calculations, plus the remaining troops in the palace, it is only a few thousand! The guest is strong and the main is weak, which means that the lifeblood is pinched in the hands of the Landisians, how can people feel at ease? Even if everyone fights in alliance and their own strength is too weak, I am afraid that they do not even have the confidence to speak.

And Butler and Sosia's partial division entered the city, and immediately relieved Adrick's urgent need! Although the two did not have many troops, they also had more than 10,000 people, and once they joined the city defense, Adric's chips increased greatly, and the 20,000 defenders already had enough confidence to negotiate terms with the Landisians.

On the afternoon before Char arrived here, Adric suddenly launched an offensive! The combined forces of the defenders and the Landis went out of the city to meet the battle, and the rebels were not well prepared, thinking that Adrick was still fighting like a few days ago, but he didn't expect Adrick to come out of the nest this time and put on a decisive posture!

Adrick's generation of famous generals, with a spicy vision, has a natural and extraordinary capture of the battle situation, and has long seen the shortcomings of the rebels, he knows that although he and the Landis are united, the total strength is still at a disadvantage, so he simply concentrates his forces on one point and storms an area of the rebel coalition camp!

The rebels were not unified within the army, quarreling with each other, no one obeyed anyone, Adric grabbed one of them and attacked angrily, at the beginning, none of the other rebels would risk damaging their own troops to meet the rescue, and everyone really didn't expect Adric to have such a ruthless courage to come out directly to fight a decisive battle with weak troops.

By the time he found that the momentum was not right, Adric had already concentrated his forces on breaking through a camp of the rebel coalition, and the army broke a breakthrough and killed it, and the rebels lost the opportunity to come up and respond at this time.

From the afternoon to the evening, after fighting for half a day, the rebels have different thoughts, each family expects others to work hard, save their own strength, and have * hands ~ to fight hard, but the subordinates have no fighting spirit.

As a result, after half a day of repeated battles, Adric's troops became more and more courageous, and the rebels became weaker and weaker, and finally when it was dark, the rebels finally collapsed!

I don't know which rebel army was the first to break away from the battlefield, so they pulled the team to the north -- in this way, once someone left first, the rest of the people naturally followed suit: Since you are unwilling to fight to the death, is Lao Tzu a fool to stay and desperately damage his strength?

In this way, the victory or loss of this battle is finally decided!

Adric saw the opportunity to rush in one way, and the rebels who killed retreated, Adric led the troops to chase and kill, and the rebels only retreated at first, and then it became a big rout, like a snowball, and the tide of the rout of the army was getting bigger and bigger, and finally it was out of control!

In the end, this huge rout was finally formed!

※※※

When Butler talked about this great victory, although his face was covered with blood, he couldn't hide his eyebrows fluttering, and said loudly: "The general ordered me to chase down the rebels, little Char, you also know that my Ninth Corps is infantry, and it runs out on two legs to chase and kill, where can it catch up? Even if it does, where can there be cavalry chasing and killing happily? I suddenly remembered what you did when you dealt with the Black Flag Army in the Arbuckt Plains. At the beginning, you gathered the miscellaneous soldiers in the army, and you just gathered two hundred horsemen to charge into battle, and as soon as my mind moved, I took my subordinate guards and cavalry as the core, and gathered all the logistics horses and mules and horses in our army. In fact, I knew in my heart that if the rebels really turned around and fought hard, most of my hundreds of miscellaneous soldiers, most of them were still running on horseback, and they might not be able to fight immediately. But the rebels have already lost their courage, I guess they don't dare to fight, anyway, I just play the trick of driving the sheep all the way, only to make a gesture and scream to scare them, and they will run until they vomit blood!hahahaha......"

Hearing this, Char let out a long sigh.

Sure enough, he is worthy of being a veteran general from the Rhodria cavalry, and this kind of determination and skill in battle is not comparable to ordinary mediocrity. If he had changed to other ordinary generals and lacked a little courage, he would never have dared to take such a risk, and he would have come up with hundreds of rabble cavalry to catch up with tens of thousands of rebels.

After Butler finished speaking, the excitement in his heart subsided slightly, and then he looked at Char again, once his emotions calmed down, the doubts in his heart rose again, and he looked at Char: "Little Char, you haven't said it yet, why did you bring someone here?" You ...... in Mooreshire."

As he said this, he suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves in the distance! The sound of horses' hooves hitting the ground was like thunder!

Butler changed color and jumped up violently! With a veteran general like him, he could immediately hear that this was the movement of thousands of cavalry brigades galloping!

The rebels around here have all been scattered, where did so many brigades of cavalry come from?!

As soon as Char saw Butler's performance, he smiled bitterly and grabbed the silver-haired man who was about to shout at the guards of his subordinates: "General...... "Don't be nervous, this is ...... "My people." "Your centaurs?!" Butler's eyes widened.

Far away, just from the north, the wilderness was dusty, and a large group of cavalry galloped in, in strict formation, with distinct armor!

Char had already had a cavalry here to meet him, and in a moment's time, the cavalry coming from the north rushed in front of him, and suddenly stopped not far away, and the cavalry suddenly stopped, and the team was neat, and the people did not shout and the horses did not neigh, and there was a sharp spirit that soared into the sky! Butler, an old man in the army, has such a vicious eye, where can he not see that such a cavalry is definitely the elite of a hundred battles?!

Soon, several cavalry officers came out of the formation and slowly came towards Char, and a cavalry officer in the lead, after turning over and dismounting, although he obviously saw Butler and recognized the veteran general in the Rhodria army, he did not squint, walked straight up in front of Char, and after saluting, he said loudly: "General, our department has cleaned up the battlefield, and the surrendered rebels have been gathered, handed over to the follow-up friendly forces, waiting for your order!"

This officer is also an old man in the Rhodria army, Butler stood beside Char, his face was full of surprise, Char silently replied to the officer who came to report, and said lightly: "The whole army is on standby, and the friendly troops behind are ordered to gather the prisoners of war and send them here and hand them over to General Butler's subordinates to deal with." ”

The officer's face was awe-inspiring, and he took the order loudly, and immediately turned and left.

Butler squinted his eyes for a while, and suddenly frowned: "This guy just now, I look very familiar, like ......"

Char deliberately smiled faintly: "Well, General, your vision is good, he is also an old man in the Rhodria army." ”

After a pause, he pretended to be calm, and waved his hand at the two thousand cavalry waiting quietly in the wilderness in the distance: "Don't hide it from the general, these horses are all brought by me to the south this time. ”

Butler is really discolored!!

Cavalry!!

More than 2,000 cavalry!!

He was born as a cavalry general, so he didn't know how difficult it was to create a special army!

In his opinion, Char is just the chief of armaments in a county in Mor County, and that place in Mor County is just a grain production area, and with the financial and material resources of a county, it is so-so to feed thousands of infantry, and if you want to feed thousands of cavalry, it is simply nonsense!

What's more, the thousands of cavalry in front of him are imposing, and they are full of the appearance of an elite in a hundred battles!

With Char, the governor of the small county of Mor, where did he get the ability to build such an expensive cavalry elite?!

Char sighed, seeing Butler's doubts, he stared at Butler: "My lord, I really can't explain this matter in three or two sentences......

He then reached into his arms, and then took out a letter sealed with fire paint, and solemnly handed it to Butler: "Please do me a favor, my lord, I have written everything in this letter, please take the troops back and meet Lord Adric!

"Char, little Char, you ...... "What kind of trick is this......" "Butler just felt a little confused.

Char shook his head with a solemn expression, "Please tell Lord Adric that I will take my headquarters and wait for his order here!
