In fact, what the leader of the rout said was true, and when it came to this point, Henry of the Valoa family was still thinking about cutting the domain, but it was not a blind move without thought, but a risky plan that was planned and decided.

In fact, the situation had reached such a point that the king no longer cared about walking a tightrope, and he thought that even if doing so would make the ranks at hand more unstable and even increase the possibility of mutiny, this qiē might only happen without facing an external threat.

If a single Caledonian army did run in front of them, the army would not be able to mutiny anyway, and would have to fight head-on—as long as the Galedonians appeared fast enough, there would not be enough time for the ill-intentioned men to join forces.

Therefore, after thinking about it, he was relieved and bold to use these guys as a bargaining chip to tempt Earl Lipton to continue his pursuit.

As for reputation, he doesn't care anymore. What reputation does a king have who has been defeated again and again? Now he is only relying on the prestige of twenty years to intimidate everyone.

As long as Yu Ge's reputation is good, he doesn't care about anything else - it can be said that everything he is doing now is paving the way for Yu Ge's future development. To do this, it is necessary to cut the domain, and then the domain, until there is no longer a single hill in Capet that can threaten the royal family. To this end, he did not hesitate to let Capet's defense forces destroy the Caledonians in a short time.

As for the outcome of the war? Even so far, he did not believe that he would eventually lose. The vast south, as long as you stand firm, is not something that the islanders of Caledonia can conquer lightly!

Now, whether the Varroa family can stand firm depends on tonight.

King Henry, who was expecting the news of the victory to reach his ears, raised his hands with difficulty and made a cross on his chest, while Theresa, who had been by his side for the past few days and had taken care of him, closed her eyes and prayed in the same way.

......

After the third hour of nightfall, the Earl of Lipton finally reached the pre-designated ambush position of the Capetian army. They piled up the roads with felled trees, blocking the passage and giving the illusion that the Capetian army was still on the run.

But...... In the middle of the road, a stout tree stood in the middle.

"Your Excellency, there are ...... written on it," shouted a soldier with a torch. But he didn't know what it was written - 99 percent of the people were illiterate these days.

Seeing this, Earl Lipton frowned. He jumped off his horse, handed the reins to his squire, and paced forward, reading the words on it.

Lipton...... Die under this tree?" the Earl of Lipton was startled, and cried out, "Not good!" and was about to retreat.

But it was too late, and in the next second, a feathered arrow was shot into his heart - and it was a bloodletting groove.

Then he collapsed to the ground and remained to his death, with a look of disbelief in his eyes.

"Cool!Flesova, your marksmanship is amazing!" Seeing the surprising success of the plan, Sinampei waved his fist excitedly. Even though there was a torch to guide him in the direction of shooting just now, in the eyes of Sinan Pei, the archery technique of being able to kill an enemy commander at a distance of three hundred meters was still too legendary.

"This is just the beginning, Mr. Si. Flesova said, and took another feathered arrow from the quiver.

With the sound of a three-pounder cannon firing, the battle finally began—but there was nothing to say about it, and the process was as simple and boring as it was.

Because, contrary to everyone's expectations, it was a battle in which Capetian slaughtered the Caredonian pursuers. The Capetian soldiers on both sides of the road, armed with spears and crossbows, rushed towards the ranks of the Galedonian army, with no formation to speak of, no tactics to speak of, and a complete chaotic charge. But it was under this charge that the Caledonians were quickly defeated, and they began to cry and cry backwards with the speed of which surprised the Capetians. After only an hour, there was no living Galedonian soldier on the battlefield.

No one in the Capetian army, who had been beaten by the Caledonians, could have imagined that victory would come so easily.

Even including Crown Prince Yuge. He hugged Si Nan Pei and shouted happily: "Si, do you see it? We won! As long as we take root, Nan Yi will be saved!"

"yes, I kept it. Looking at the corpses all over the ground, although his heart was empty, Sinampei still smiled. Even if joy was not enough to fill the void in his heart, it was enough to make him stretch his frown.

"But Your Highness, this is normal, there is no need to be so happy. When Sinampei pondered it carefully, he knew the reason for this victory.

It's just a replica of the Battle of Maling. There is a saying in the ancient Celestial Empire: "The skill of Qi cannot meet the martial arts of the Wei clan." "The Su zhì of the soldiers of the Wei State is obvious to all. Moving this to Eugenia, it can also be said that the longbow of the Capetian knights could not meet the island nation, but the Qi state still defeated the Wei state in the Battle of Maling, just as the demoralized Capet now defeated the Galedonians.

The reason for this is simple, firstly, this is not a positional war in the traditional sense at all, the Galedonian longbowmen do not have a favorable formation to rely on, but a very bad marching column for combat, and when the Capetians attack from the road with two cannons, the longbowmen simply cannot effectively use their firepower. The second is that when the longbowmen found out that the Capetians were attacking from both sides, the distance between the two was already very close, and at close range, the longbow's range advantage could not be brought into play, and the rate of fire was much lower than that of the crossbow, so how could they be undefeated? In addition, the night greatly weakened the combat ability of the longbowmen. The third is the body. The longbowmen were not a class that could guarantee their full combat capability for a long time, and coupled with the long journey, they naturally could not compare with the Capetians who had already rested for a few hours.

But the most important ...... But it was still the sudden death of the commander-in-chief. Flesovan's precise arrow was like an invisible hand pulling it towards its target until it hit the bull's-eye......

These truths, not only Si Nanpei, but Yu Ge and others naturally understood them, but they didn't have the time to think about them anymore, because the joy of victory had completely occupied everyone's hearts.

Finally won...... I can finally run around like a lost dog!
