Chapter 072: The Wound of the Sword (I)
Besieged on all sides, this is the biggest problem of the 27th Corps, to fight head-on on the Great Plains, not to mention 780,000 demons, even 1780,000, the 27th Corps will not be able to fight it!
Listening to the shouts of the demons that sounded almost from all sides, Dana felt that his breathing was a little heavy, and looked at the captain of the guard next to him, Div, Dana still resisted the urge to turn the horse's head, he knew that the man in front of him was the real hero of the empire.
Div's hometown was not far from Clarence's house, in distant Bondres, yes, the place where good horses were abundant, but it was a distant place for Odo.
Dyna's army retreated, and according to Carey's plan, he was going to make peace with Jeffrey and then break out to the southeast of the encirclement.
Just when Dana shouted the retreat, Carey, who had been standing still, finally gave the order to attack, but the attack sequence did not have anything to do with Xilin.
The task of the three of Xilin is to lead all the scouts and transmit military information.
Carey said to Cilin: "Your Excellency the Great Governor, second son, Lord Baron, from now on do your reconnaissance, otherwise, even if the general returns, I will cut off your head!"
In this regard, Xilin had no choice.
The target of Kairi's attack is also to the southeast.
The breakout of the 27th Corps has not made much progress so far, and Diner has begun to retreat, while Bunier is still holding on.
Carey gave him the most troops, the only two battalions left in the Second Banner Regiment, and the two most complete battalions in the entire 27th Corps now, plus the rest of the personnel of the Second Banner Regiment Headquarters, a total of 2,000 people!
The battle was fierce, and even the chef of the entire Second Banner Regiment rushed forward with a kitchen knife, although they were not as fast as the war horse, but at least one thing was proven, that is, the kitchen knife could not only kill chickens, but also kill demons!
The battle was fierce, and the moment Bunier turned his horse's head sideways, he saw the most shocking scene in the world: a short, stocky middle-aged man, who Bunnier was sure he was from Lenslick, because the middle-aged man had no beard, not even a short beard.
The light of the fire was bright, and Bunier could see it clearly, the Lenslick man had a machete in his hand, which was used to chop bones, and he quickly waved his arm, as if with all his strength, and the gentle machete sank deep into the green skin in front of him.
A stream of green, seemingly hot liquid, erupted on the ground and onto the man's face.
The green-skinned demon clan looked up to the sky and roared, turned his head suddenly, and looked at the little little one behind him, although the Lunslick man was at least more than two hundred pounds, but for the green-skinned demon clan, he was indeed a small one.
"Roaring ......"
There was another long roar, if it was an ordinary cavalry warrior, the first reaction now was to continue to shoot back, or to dodge from a distance, but the Lenslick man obviously didn't know what to do, and the machete was still tightly nailed to the shoulder of the green-skinned demon.
Bunier looked at the scene in front of him, it happened so fast, he wanted to shout 'get out of the way', but as soon as his mouth opened, a large green hand slapped straight at the head of the man in Renslick.
Bunier's mouth was open, his throat never made a sound, and there seemed to be the sound of a shattering skull in his ears, but a crisp sound of a weapon striking him woke up immediately.
"My lord, what's wrong with you?" spoke to the battalion officer of the 2nd Battalion, a very spiritual imperial soldier with a very orthodox background, and his father served in the General Staff.
When Carey heard the sound, he had already turned his head, looked at the demon who had fallen to the ground, and then at the battalion officer, and it was clear that it was his subordinates who had saved him.
"Oh...... Ian, I'm fine, how is the second battalion now, what about the first battalion, is there any news from the first battalion?" said to the battalion officer as he quickly turned his horse's head.
Hearing what Bunier said, Ian didn't ask much, and hurriedly replied: "My lord, only a few scattered soldiers were found in the first battalion, and there was no news of the entire battalion. ”
Listening to Ian's report, Bounier's face was extremely gloomy, although he usually looked like a hanger, but at this time he seemed to be a different person, it seems, the current appearance, is the real flag officer, Lord Bounier.
"And what about your people, how many are left?" Buniel's eyes were fixed on Ian.
"Back to the adults, only remain, only ...... remain"
"Damn, what are you talking about, say it quickly!"
"There are less than four hundred people left...... "As he spoke, the Imperial soldier, who had never cried out in pain when he was wounded and bleeding, had tears in his eyes.
Hearing Ian's answer, Bunier shook slightly, his eyes widened a little, and then he took a deep breath, not knowing whether he was sighing or trying to stop the sadness in his eyes.
"Good ......"
"Good!"
Bunier said hello twice, but then he went crazy, whatever cultivation, whatever plain zhì, get out of the way!
"Damn green-skinned ghost, me, grass, you, Mazuzong!" word by word, Bunier shouted loudly to the demons behind him!
Indeed, although the history of the 27th Corps has experienced a lot of ups and downs, and even more tragic things have not happened before, but since Bunier came to this corps, this is still the most severe loss!
Just a few hundred meters behind Bunier, a black figure was still looking at the Qiē in front of him, including Buniel's every move.
By the light of the fire, you could still see the evil smile on the man's face, but after the last scolding of Bunier, the smile on his face quickly disappeared, and was replaced by a chilling anger.
Staring at Buniel's figure closely, the man's mouth also squeezed out a few words, in human words, that is: "I want him dead!"
After hearing this, a thin demon next to him also looked at Buniel, then nodded slightly, and slowly disappeared into the demon army.
"Did you find a battalion?"
Bunier asked with an ugly look as he looked at the scouts in front of him.
"Lord Hui, my subordinates are incompetent!" replied, a man who looked like the leader.
"Fool! Look for it again! You must find a battalion, even if it's the corpses of those cubs!" The successive defeats on Buniel's side have made him completely angry, in less than a day, a full three thousand men and horses, and now there is still so much left, the third battalion is gone, the second battalion is less than four hundred, and the whereabouts of the first battalion are unknown, who is this called, who can stand it.
Just after a while, the demon army followed closely again, looking at the demon army that was still crowded, Bunier's hand was clenched tightly, and his knuckles were white and terrifying.
