The annoying harpy in the sky had finally vanished. General Anton was just about to give a new order, but suddenly heard a China Times-like cheer from the forefront of his formation: "Long live! Long live the Empire!" and this cheer instantly spread throughout the whole army, so the sound of "Long live the Empire" rang out one after another.

"Go and ask, why do you shout 'Hurray'?" General Anton shouted to his own soldiers with a raised voice.

After a while, one of the pro-soldiers brought the news: "They are all saying that the enemy army has been largely wiped out and is in the process of being routed. ”

"Huh?" General Anton and the officers beside him raised their clairvoyants at the same time. But in the clairvoyant mirror, the demon army's troops were still in neat formation.

General Anton silently lowered the clairvoyant. Understand that this is a lie told by the one who does not know it, in order to boost morale. But...... It's better to have higher morale!

Despite the defeat, the mobile forces were better than originally estimated. Due to the timely response, the most important thing is that it was dark in time, so as soon as General Gore counted it, there were still 150,000 or 60,000 mobile troops.

However, after the battlefield was controlled by the steppe barbarians, coupled with the hasty retreat, the material loss of the mobile troops was relatively large. The only advantage is that the strength is relatively bluffing. So General Gore proposed to General Anton a more effective way of using mobile troops, simply abandoning the decisive battle at Lion's Tooth City and trying to break through as far south as possible outside the encirclement that was about to form.

In fact, it was of little significance for the mobile troops to stay in the same place as Lion's Tooth City, and when the main force of the demon clan arrived, it couldn't hold out for a few days at all. To make matters worse, Lion's Tooth is very close to the Fortress of Seray. So this kind of containment may not work very well.

On the contrary, if you run away now, you can attract the main force of the demon clan to chase after you. The farther away you are, the better, and you can mislead the demons again. A small force is fighting desperately, while the other, a large number of people, is desperately on the run. In the eyes of the demons, the army that is also fighting is the outcast, and the army that escapes is much more important, right?

And now the biggest problem is not to make Marshal Joset suspicious. So after some discussion, he made a suggestion to the Grand Duke of the Red Lion, Van Bock: I hope he can abandon Lion's Tooth City, deliberately discard most of his possessions, and first attract the barbarians of the steppe to loot, and then the men will always retreat.

In fact, by now, the situation has become clearer. Even if the objectives of this operation are completed and the remaining troops can be withdrawn to the defense line of the Guana River, they will definitely not be able to rescue Lion's Tooth City in a short time. In that case, the fall of Lion's Tooth City will not be too far away. There's not much point in defending Lion's Tooth City. Then simply take advantage of the current containment of mobile troops to make a general retreat!

In the future, with the retreat of the mobile forces and the general retreat of Lion's Tooth City, this scene should also have enough weight to deceive Marshal Joset's attention. And this was the last contribution of the mobile forces to General Anton. In the ensuing battle, General Anton could only fight alone.

For some reason, the change of plans again, still did not inform Dipp. This is mainly due to the hesitation of General Anton, who is staying in the city of Colmar to more or less respond to the retreat of the mobile forces and the main forces. But on the other hand, General Anton no longer dared to let Dipu go to the battlefield again. After all, the losses of the Northern Army this time have been staggering, and if the Dipu army is consumed again, there will not be enough troops to maintain the defense line of the Guana River. When the time comes, it will become a demon clan that crosses the Guana River and goes to the clouds. So Dipu remained idle in Colmar. Still became a bystander.

In the early morning of September 9, Lion's Tooth City took the lead and began the final breakthrough. And this time, although the steppe barbarians were somewhat prepared, the troops of the Red Lion Principality used the secret passages in the city to make the troops suddenly appear in the outer city. A fierce battle ensued.

The remaining Red Lion Duchy troops are either the last remaining elites or civilians who have volunteered to join. As the battle progressed, the steppe barbarians discovered to their horror that it was the volunteer civilians who were truly terrifying.

It's not that the volunteer civilians are so strong in combat, they are even much weaker than the militia in the past. But the civilians who are still in Lion's Tooth City are all old and weak, and it is impossible for them to escape all the way to the Guana River, so their only purpose is - destruction!

Since you can't hold the Lion's Tooth City anymore, let's destroy this beloved city. So those volunteer civilians went around to prevent fire, and even poured oil on themselves, and pounced on those steppe barbarians nearby. The flames gradually spread, and more than a hundred magical golems, the last killer weapon of Lion's Tooth City, were thrown into battle. Under such circumstances, the steppe barbarians who remained in the outer city retreated. They finally got out of the way and let those who had rushed out of the city later.

"Boom!" another magic puppet blew itself up. Van Bock smiled at the Kuma Magister beside him, "I'll go and kill for a while to cover your retreat." ”

"I'll stay too!" Kumar refused. The last one left behind is too dangerous. And Kuma more or less guessed Van Bock's thoughts, he already had the intention of seeking death.

As if seeing through Kuma's thoughts, Van Bock smiled and shook his head: "I don't think about it that much. However, there is only one magister left in the principality, and when it comes to little William, I still need your guidance and assistance. Besides, after a lifetime of fighting for life and death, I haven't died so easily. Maybe you can find a way out. Well, without further ado. See you later!"

With that, Van Bock drove his horse forward. Kumar hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth, and turned around and flew out of the city......

In the end, more than 10,000 troops and tens of thousands of volunteer civilians left behind by Van Bock fought until the evening. In the end, only a few hundred people retreated to the Grand Duke's Mansion in the inner city. In the midst of the siege, Van Bock opened the reversal of the attached magic array, and an earth-shattering explosion occurred. Van Bock and his remaining troops and the more than 100,000 civilians who remained in the city were all wiped out.

In fact, Van Bock did have a will to die. When Bavra betrayed, he was already quite discouraged. And because of his revenge on Emperor Salen, he led to the fiasco of the Red Lion Principality at the beginning of the demon invasion, which made the proud Van Bock unable to accept it. But in the end, he washed it all away with his own blood. (To be continued.) )
