Chapter 16: The Decisive Battle
Claude instantly realized that this was an ambush, and that this was not the result of some careful speculation, but a momentary hunch. I have a hunch that this kind of thing is mysterious to say, but for people on the battlefield, it is the most important. Especially for a general, it is really a very important feeling. Sometimes, a bad premonition, prepared in advance, can save a war that is bound to fail.
In this world, many generals are convinced of this feeling, and they feel that this premonition is not inexplicable or abrupt, but a revelation in the dark, a manifestation of their fate.
Therefore, when this feeling instantly appeared in General Claude's heart, he almost did not hesitate, and opened his mouth to say that this was the place of ambush.
The soldiers listened to these abrupt words, and although they were a little hurried, they were still subconsciously vigilant.
Completely different from Rollin's army, the baron's army has already fought many wars, although the baron, the viscount, such a war is completely the smallest war, and there is no way to compare it with those kingdoms, principalities, and even empires. But there is still a considerable difference between the armies of Rollin and the Baron. This difference represents a rookie soldier who has only been trained, but has never experienced war at all, and they may have some hesitation to kill others, while the other is experienced in a hundred battles, for war, for life, has long been indifferent and cold, and deeply knows the laws of the battlefield.
It is precisely that the armies of both sides are not at the same level at all. That's why Rollin is so careful, that's why General Claude is so confident and launches a pursuit.
However, whether it is for Rollin or for Claude, the next war is inevitable.
This is an inevitable and indissolvable hatred and war, and the only way to do this is to use blood and the end of life to make a result.
This was already predestined.
Claude is worthy of a general, a level 9 warrior, and the moment he sits on his horse and shouts, it is as if he responds to his words. On the hill, countless figures appeared.
Claude squinted his eyes and looked at the figure not far away, with the help of the moonlight, coupled with the enhancement of the eyesight of the level 9 warrior, he could clearly see the scene on the hillside in the distance.
It was precisely because he saw clearly that his face suddenly changed.
"Not good!!"
General Claude saw that on the hillside not far away, soldiers were pushing huge rolling stones!
General Claude realized almost instantly, this was an ambush that had been prepared for a long time, an ambush that had been prepared since before tonight! Otherwise, the other side would not have had so many ready-made rolling stones!
From the beginning of the night raid, the pace has been completely controlled by the other party and Rollin, and this feeling of not being in control of the rhythm makes Claude a little uncomfortable, and the ominous premonition in his heart is getting stronger and stronger.
However, at this time, he didn't have time to think about this, he hurriedly shouted: "The whole army obeys the order, the tail becomes the head! Quickly retreat!"
With Claude's order, the army could withdraw without turning around, but it was already a little late, and Rollin, who was standing on the hillside, immediately gave the order and ordered the soldiers to push the rolling stones down!!
As the rolling stones pushed down, the huge stones, turning wildly, because of the slope, almost with a thousand momentum, crushed in the direction of General Claude.
If it weren't for the bad feeling in my heart at the beginning, I am afraid that this wave of rolling stones would have wiped out half of the entire army! General Claude gritted his teeth, a little glad. However, the results did not improve much.
"Ahh
"Help me!!"
"Ahh
As the people behind him evacuated a little slowly, they were suddenly hit by a huge stone, their legs were instantly broken, and they collapsed to the ground, although they did not die, they had completely lost the ability to fight. No matter how elite he is, he can't help but cry out in pain, even if he is heroic, in the face of death at this time, he can't help but reveal the fear in his heart and ask for help.
Losing their ability to fight on the battlefield! This is already doomed to their death! However, they have not yet lost their lives, and in the face of imminent death, it is inevitable that they will still ask for help from their comrades just now!
But this did not have the slightest effect, and the soldiers in the back, who dared to stop and try to save people, would be crushed by stones, and several of them even died on the spot.
With this wave of stones, the effect was surprisingly good, and almost instantly, the baron's army lost dozens of soldiers, and the morale of those people dropped by an unknown amount.
"It's a pity......" Luo Lin stood on the hillside, his eyes showed some pity in his eyes, this was a careful ambush that had been prepared for a long time, just waiting for the enemy to fall into the net, even so, it still made the other party sense that something was wrong and evacuate in time, otherwise this wave of ambush is likely to directly make the opponent's army lose half of its combat effectiveness!
If that were the case, there would be no suspense about this war for Rollin, but now, victory was not yet doomed!
But now is the best time to strike.
Don't miss out again!
Luo Lin stared at the fleeing baron's army, and suddenly said loudly: "Soldiers, two ambushes in a row, let me play with this baron's army, let them lose their cavalry, let them go to the precious magician, let them lose part of the army, and most importantly, morale! This is strategy! However, strategy does not determine a single qiē, and next, we also need your heroic impact to let them know that we are powerful! Now, there is no doubt, it is time to charge!" Do you dare to charge into battle and kill the enemy without giving up your life?!"
"Never give up!!" Rollin's soldiers were instantly activated by Rollin's morale!
"Charge!!"
With an order, Rollin's army, like a pouring flood, rushed towards the other side.
Claude's eyes were fixed on the onslaught of Rollin's army, and he looked at his own side of the demoralized army, and the sense of crisis was great, but he knew that now was not the time to escape.
If you escape here, the defeat will instantly spread to the point of no return. The opponent's pursuit of victory is likely to wipe out the army of his side!
So now, can't hold back!
Although Claude made two mistakes in a row, he was worthy of a good commander, and if this battle was as usual, he would have won lightly, but alas, he met Rollin and suffered two setbacks.
However, he did not give up, gritted his teeth, and said to the priest accompanying the army: "Lord Reverend, please cast a spell! Now is not the time to hesitate! We must fight back against !!."
The priest already wanted to escape, he didn't want to stay here for a moment longer, the terrible Cheng of the other party made him frightened, he didn't want to die here like those magicians. However, looking at Claude's red eyes and cold tone, he understood that if he refused his request, he would die now!
