On August 27, 3019 in the continental calendar, the outer city of Lion's Tooth City fell. In the evening of the same day, Marshal Joseter sent two lines of troops totaling 350,000 troops, which had successfully sneaked to the rear of the main force of the Northern Army, forming a situation of encirclement.

But at the dawn of that day, General Anton ignored the fact that his back road was intercepted, and suddenly the whole army was dispatched to meet the main force of the demon clan in front of him.

This unexpected move immediately caught the demons off guard. After the general army is surrounded, the army should be discouraged and want to open up their own back road as soon as possible. But I never thought that why did this human army, instead of fleeing, take the initiative to find the main force of the demon race?

In this battle of wits, General Anton completely deceived Marshal Joset. And if the master misses the move, he will immediately put the demon troops in an embarrassment.

In Marshal Joset's judgment, General Anton should have diverted the tiger from the mountain and used the main force of the Northern Army to attract most of the troops of the Demon Clan, creating opportunities for the other two routes. Since this is the case, it should be said that the purpose has been achieved. Both the way of Dipp and the road of General von Bourn are now in a state of war. As for whether it can be done well, it depends on the on-site performance, and General Anton can't help much anyway.

Because of this, General Anton should have found a way to withdraw his troops. And Marshal Joset's plan was very good, and at the same time as General Anton withdrew his troops, he would suddenly cut off the rear route of the Northern Army, and then he would beat the water dog to death.

Because of this reason, Marshal Joset arranged most of the elite of the demon race to cut off the back road, but the demon troops in front of it, although there were quite a few of them, they were relatively weak. Originally, it was used to scare and scare, but I didn't expect it to be a real game.

And General Anton chose the time very well. Originally, on the morning of the next day, the demons would also attack with all their troops, so they all rested in the barracks tonight. So I was caught off guard.

The human alliance also showed its hole cards this time, and more than 40 magic crystal cannons made their debut. Coupled with the dense flying arrows, the demons were a little out of breath. There is no need to think about going out of the camp to fight, Marshal Joset ordered: rely on the battalion to defend and withstand this wave first. Although the combat effectiveness of the demons is more than that of the human alliance, it is too far behind in terms of equipment, and it has fallen into complete passivity for a while.

For a whole day, the arrows, flying stones, and magical cannon fire of the human coalition seemed endless. The demons tried to organize a counterattack several times, but they were all pressed back by dense long-range firepower. The human coalition seems to be tireless, and the will to fight continues into the night. It was not until the morning of the next day that Marshal Joseter was surprised to find that in fact, only more than 100,000 were left outside the camp, and General Anton had already led the main force of the Northern Army to leave.

This shocking change made Marshal Joset finally suddenly realize, and he finally understood the intentions of General Anton. At this time, he realized that before he knew it, the Selei Fortress was actually empty. So he immediately ordered all the troops to march as quickly as possible to the rescue of the fortress of Sere, where General Overmars was stationed......

......

After some careful planning, General Anton successfully left the demon troops behind and bought most of the time. Then he ordered through a magical communication: "Let Grand General von Bourne's troops retreat, and Dip's troops cover the retreat of the civilians of Lion's Tooth City as well." And the more than 100,000 horses and horses contained outside the demon camp also ended their tasks and tried to find a way to jump out of the encirclement. ”

Now is the time for General Anton to perform alone.

Before introducing General Anton's actions, let's briefly introduce the results of the other two troops: the more than 100,000 horses outside the demon camp, when they wanted to retreat, they found that the two demon troops who were originally going to cut off the back road had rushed over. And the encirclement carefully prepared by Marshal Josett finally worked, and they were caught in a heavy siege.

In the end, this force was completely defeated, and only a small part of the remnants of the army broke out of the encirclement. Only about 10,000 retreated to the Guana River afterwards, and almost all of the rest were killed.

And General von Boone's results were better, but only limited. When he received the order to know that General Anton had finally succeeded in the "victory" march, General von Bourn immediately ordered all the troops that were fighting fiercely to be withdrawn and to turn around and withdraw to the Guana River. It has nothing to do with bravery or anything, now that the purpose of the battle has been achieved, it is time to consider bringing back more fighters.

However, in the heat of battle, it is not so easy to retreat. If you are not careful, the disengagement from the battle can turn into a rout. General von Boon was quite resolute, and in order to withdraw his troops, he was even a little paranoid and desperate, breaking his arm several times to survive, and even personally led the troops to break the rear. But at this moment, the goddess of fate seemed to be biased towards the demons, and the 100,000 demon troops who were in hot pursuit finally arrived.

The ensuing battle turned into a tragic one, with most of the broken troops killed, including General von Bourn. However, his death brought a lot of bad results, and some of the troops who had been evacuated returned to the battlefield to avenge General von Bourn.

But this approach, although courageous is commendable, is also a waste of the painstaking efforts of General von Boone. So sometimes it's quite difficult to be sensible. After a hard battle, the strengthened Thorn Flower Knights finally withdrew more than 50,000. And on the way back, I encountered several hard battles one after another. In the end, just over 30,000 survivors crossed the Guana River......

So far, the Tiger Heart Project has been successfully completed. Of course, how much success can be achieved is left to fate. And General Anton is worthy of being the chief general of the empire, and his performance is quite wonderful. Using the blind angle of thinking, he completely deceived Marshal Joset.

Of course, this cannot be blamed entirely on Marshal Joset. First, Hammett's prophecy, and then the news from the demon spies lurking in the upper echelons of the human race, made him have a preconceived idea.

And Marshal Joset did not expect at all that General Anton's secrecy would be so well done. Only General Anton and General von Boon knew the whole plan, and the others were all kept in the dark. And the demon spy didn't play a role at all.

But in any case, in this round, General Anton grabbed a very valuable first move. (To be continued.) )
