Chapter 82 is the Night
The wolf expeditionary force began to withdraw in an orderly manner.
It can't be called a defeat, because even if they retreat, they are still in order and cover each other, and although there are losses, the people who successfully evacuate still account for the vast majority.
However, when climbing the rock wall, a few more people were shot down by the Texas wolf clan with the help of muskets and crossbow arrows, and these wolf warriors who attacked at night were all elite forces, with rough skin and thick flesh, and ordinary projectile weapons could cause them very little damage.
Lothar pressed on the battlements and looked down, and saw the enemy's figure gradually moving away, before he said, "Really withdraw?" ”
He didn't use the half-dragon, and he didn't see Frigila's outburst, which meant that they only played one hole card and scared off the wolves.
Jeanne said with some pride: "I guess she recognized my breath." ”
"You had a fight with the ripper?"
"Perhaps, but I don't remember."
Jeanne's tone was very relaxed, in the days when she was the Grand Master of the Holy Church Order, she had lost too many famous dark creatures, and even once at the Dark Council, in front of a group of dark creatures with big faces and faces, she killed a Chaos Demon who was the cause of evil.
Francesco the Ripper, although he is also a well-known giant among the dark creatures, is still incomparable to those evil and murderous demons, and it is difficult to hang on to her heart.
Lothar let out an "um" and added, "It's a lot easier than I thought it would be to pour your light." ”
"This is just the beginning."
Jeanne shook her head, although her lethality to dark creatures was not as good as at its peak, but it was actually enough, and the dilemma she was facing now was the same as that of Lothar, and the blue stripe was too short.
"Well, that's just a good start."
Cards –
Lothar lit a match and wanted to light a cigarette, only to find that the cigarette case had been soaked with blood when he had just fought, and he paused slightly, and a voice sounded behind him: "Sir, I have it here, if you don't dislike it." ”
Looking back, it was a young wolf clan who had a broken arm and returned to the battlefield after a hastily bandaged.
"Thank you."
He took one out of the cigarette case handed by the other party with one hand, lit it for himself, and asked, "Do you want it?" ”
The young man was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said, "Isn't this a bit rude?" ”
"Where."
Lothar stuffed the cigarette into the other party's mouth and lit it for him, he took a big puff, the red dot of the cigarette quickly moved back, and he smiled a little embarrassedly: "Thank you." ”
"It's me who should say thank you."
Lothar patted each other on the shoulder, there are many ways to get closer to a person, and fighting side by side is definitely at the forefront.
…
In the humble camp of the expeditionary force.
Francesco the Ripper looked gloomily at the soldiers of the expeditionary force who had returned to the camp scattered, most of them wounded, silently calculating the casualties in his heart, and for a long time, seeing that no one had returned, he turned around and looked at the centurions who had returned one after another and gathered together.
Someone wondered: "Your Excellency Francesco, why do you suddenly ask us to retreat, and if you hold on a little longer, I will lead the boys to break through the enemy's first wall?" ”
A Yaksi wolf clan was puzzled: "Boss, is there any accident happening?" ”
Francesco nodded solemnly: "Well, the enemy has been prepared for a long time, and moreover, he has also invited a great foreign helper, do you know how much we have lost so far?" ”
The crowd looked at Francesco Bryant's gesture in disbelief.
"That's right, there are already more than a hundred people, and this is only the statistics of those who have not returned, and many of those who have come back have been seriously injured, which shows that the Basilicata wolf clan is not a group of weak people who can be easily exterminated by us."
He paused slightly, and said coldly: "Moreover, Renault died in battle, and the person who killed him was the great foreign aid that I called Basilicata. ”
Renault is one of the elite centurions sent by the Yaxi family on this trip, his strength is extraordinary, not much weaker than the ripper, and the strength of the patriarchs of several high-ranking wolf clans is similar, but he didn't expect to die so soon.
Surprise was written on the faces of the crowd.
Someone asked, "I heard from the boys under my command, is it the Bright Knight?" ”
"That's right, it's the Shining Knight."
The voice fell, and the crowd was in an uproar.
There was a flash of fear on everyone's face, this was the dream demon that every wolf clan could even say that all the dark creatures on the continent had the same heart for so many years.
"According to the information I have received, I have already seen the Bright Knights of the Holy Church, the Blood Demon of the Blood Royal Court, and the rebels of Basilicata in the enemy's fortress, and they have colluded with these two forces, no wonder the Wolf Lord is so aggressive."
"Now, who else wants to intercede for the rebels of Basilikata?"
His sharp eyes swept over everyone's faces, and when he saw that no one stood up to reply, he said: "Basilicata will be destroyed, and everyone in the whole clan must find out and kill them." ”
He snorted coldly: "Have a good rest tonight, arrange the night watchman." ”
"Early tomorrow morning, we will continue the attack."
Someone frowned and asked: "The rebels of Basilicata also have the fortress cannon used by the British, that is the latest model, I have seen it at the fortress of New York before, will they still collude with the British?" ”
The Ripper's grim gaze swept over him: "No matter which party there is collusion with, the will of the wolf lord is to erase Basilikata, and this result is already doomed before we set off." ”
"Okay, okay."
The interrogator was quickly defeated under the eyes of the Ripper, he clenched his fists, and a trace of unwillingness rose in his heart.
As Lothar said, the seeds of rebellion have long been planted.
But as Cellinina said, they will always be on the side of the victors, and when the Yaxi family still has the strength to dominate the wolves, even if they have a rebellious heart, they will never take action.
…
The Texan wolves at the head of the city sat around the campfires everywhere, and some of the wandering wolves who were too weak to be on the front line of the battlefield were cleaning up the corpses and blood stains at the head of the city, and bringing large pieces of barbecue meat to the warriors.
In this battle, the losses of the Texas wolf clan were not small at all.
Although the expeditionary force is limited in the strength it can put at the same time due to natural dangers, the elite level is much better than that of the Texas wolf clan, especially the wolf clan at this stage of the horn head, and the quality of the expeditionary force is much higher.
But the Texas wolf clan is not without merit.
The living conditions of the wandering wolf clan are harsh, many wanderers have exercised a good skill in the years of wandering, and after coming to Texas, they have been fighting with wild monsters all year round, although the hard power is poor, but the combat experience is better than those high-level wolf clans.
Although the losses were not small, the Texas wolves did not show much sadness.
They sang and danced, reminding Lothar of a popular medieval saying: life is but a game.
Lothar sat silently by the campfire, looking at the endless stream of figures who stepped forward to toast Jeanne, and the corners of her mouth curled slightly.
This may be Jeanne's talent, and any comrade who fights alongside her will love her if she wants to.
Hans sighed: "During this time, Ms. Jeanne really made a lot of friends in Texas. ”
As soon as the words fell, Lai Ang's loud voice rang out: "Brother Hans, come here, and I will introduce the brothers to you." ”
Only Lothar was left, and Giuliano walked slowly: "Your Excellency, is it convenient to talk?" ”
