Mark Dean made a mistake in his decision, and when he didn't understand the enemy's situation, he rushed to send reinforcements, which turned out to be a refueling tactic, making it easy for Haaland to lead all three battles.

Finding that Duke Hubble appeared nearby with his troops, Richard directly set a trap in the dense forest halfway and defeated the opponent in a short time.

In just five days, Richard led Haaland to lead the army to attack the enemy's left flank, won three battles and three victories, and annihilated 64,000 enemy troops, while the losses of Haaland's army were less than 600 people.

Such a brilliant victory suppressed the nobility of the United Kingdom on the east coast.

Mark Dean sensed the low morale of the soldiers and decided to lead the team to a big victory himself. However, he did not want to go toe-to-toe with Haaland and his army, as Mark Dean had already received information about the reasons for the defeat of the Nineteenth Army.

The killer feature of the Starlight Bomb has fallen into the eyes of Mark Dean.

Although Mark Dean also has a Legendary-level treasure on his body, and the mage regiment at the headquarters has arrived, he still does not want to face the power of the starlight bomb.

Unwilling to engage in a head-to-head battle with Haraland's leadership, Mark Dean decided to launch a fierce assault from the Hubble Mountains, attacking the logistics line of Haaland's army, and defeating Steven's 30,000 allied forces with the southern nobles first.

In this year's war, the three kingdoms mobilized an army of nearly two million people, and the main force on the front line exceeded a million troops, and the width of the main battlefield was as long as 1,000 kilometers.

On the Western Front, William commanded the Grizzly Bear Army plus four Duke Grant, led an army of 150,000 to attack the 300,000 defenders of the Delong Kingdom and the 100,000 troops of the two Dukes of East and Orlando. Although the start was very smooth, with the elite cavalry of Duke Anton's troops joining the battlefield, it has now fallen a little behind.

The central line was commanded by Zakary, and the five legions were all elite soldiers of the royal family, and their opponents were the 100,000 Delong Kingdom troops, plus six legions, about 120,000 East Coast United Kingdom troops. Despite the large disparity in forces, Zakary had already gained a considerable advantage, reaching the south bank of the Mara River and beginning to approach the Citadel of Saint-Sis, the capital of the Delon Kingdom.

Richard commanded the smallest number of Eastern Route Army, and with the combined forces of Count Steven and the southern nobles, the first-line strength was only 75,000 men. Richard's opponent was Mark Dean, the legendary knight of the United Kingdom on the East Coast, who commanded a total of nine legions, plus the armies of the two dukes Hubble and Isaac, for a total of 220,000 men.

In addition, there is the northern front battlefield, the four marquis of the eastern part of the Grant Kingdom plus the three legions of the royal guard, the first-line troops are about 150,000 people, and the east coast United Kingdom has a total of 220,000 troops including the naval army.

In this direction, the United Kingdom on the East Coast, because of its naval superiority, can come and go whenever it wants, and occupies the strategic initiative. The troops of the United Kingdom on the east coast moved the defenders back and forth, and fought a very wonderful battle, annihilating 30,000 men of the Kingdom of Grant.

King Roger failed in the first battle and was forced to take the method of clearing the wilderness with strong walls and issuing an order to move to the sea. As soon as the order of moving to the sea was issued, the four marquis in the east suffered heavy economic losses, and more than 100,000 slaves died on the way. It was only by using this lose-lose approach that the United Kingdom on the East Coast could be stopped.

In the war five years ago, although the Kingdom of Grant won a complete victory and expanded its land of 150,000 square kilometers in the south, it lost the Earl of Silvermoon Island and fought against the United Kingdom on the East Coast, and was strategically passive.

If the last war had kept the Earl of Silvermoon Island, this war would not have been so passive.

Through this war, the fleet of the United Kingdom on the east coast woke up King Roger. In this war, King Roger clearly felt the important role of the navy.

In the battlefield in the four directions, none of them can break the balance, and they are all in a state of stalemate.

Sensing that Richard was approaching with his troops and wanted to fight a decisive battle to break the balance of the war, Mark Dean wanted to do the opposite.

He amassed six legions in the southern part of the Hubble Mountains, and took the method of clearing the wilderness and setting up more forts to hold back Richard's army, while he personally led two legions to pulse down from Hubble Mountain to attack the combined forces of Earl Steven and the southern nobles.

Mark Dean's attack was very sudden, ensuring the concealment of the attack. He took the lead, led the elite infantry, and broke through six camps in a row.

This unstoppable momentum suppressed the southern aristocratic coalition army.

Compared with the army of Earl Steven, the army of the Southern nobles was more loose, faced with severe tests, and lacked internal cohesion, and was first broken down under the blow of the United Kingdom army on the east coast, and the rout also broke up the camp of Earl Steven, leaving Steven's army in a slight confusion.

Sensing that the situation was not good, Earl Steven did not choose to flee with his troops, he knew in his heart: "Once he breaks and flees, let the United Kingdom army on the east coast cut off the food route, Duke Harland will inevitably hold himself accountable when he returns."

Although I have Grant royal blood, Duke Haaland will not care about this and reduce the punishment for himself. There is a high probability that I will use my head to deter the army, and at that time, the territory will also be removed and taken back by the royal family, presumably Roger's Kingdom will also agree.

Now it's just a matter of living a few more days to escape, and it's better to fight for your children. If this battle is won by luck, it can still make meritorious deeds, even if this battle is lost, I die here, King Roger and Duke Harland will not be able to hold the officers who died in the battle responsible. ”

In the flash of light, Steven had thought clearly, and he decisively gave the order to suppress the fleeing soldiers, and led Steven's army to fight a bloody war with Mark Dean.

Count Steven led the soldiers to fight bravely, but could not stop the onslaught of the legendary knight, and Markine took the lead and personally led the troops to charge into battle, breaking through the formation of Count Steven.

Although Count Steven was a ninth-order epic knight, he could not compete with the legendary second-order knight after all, and although the resistance was fierce, he still died at the hands of Markdeon.

In this battle, Count Steven was defeated and killed, and the southern aristocratic coalition lost ninety percent of its troops, and the rear only collected less than 3,000 defeated troops.

More than 30,000 troops were annihilated, and Mark Dean's losses were only 4,000.

After winning this battle, Mark Dean successfully completed the combat objective, cutting off the food route of the Richard Department, and leaving the Richard Department in front and back.

After a night march and a hard battle, Markion told his soldiers to rest for the night, and tomorrow decided to attack Saron Castle.

Although Markdian was unexpected, there were Haaland's air scouts at a height of hundreds of miles nearby. The griffon cavalry quickly sensed the anomaly and delivered the news to the city of Salon.

After discovering that the back road was lost, Levin, the defender of Salon, did not hesitate, and immediately burned the grain and grass, abandoned the 20,000 slaves collected and captured, slaughtered the prisoners of war, and decisively withdrew to Jinshan City with a large army to join the Sox Department.

After the two armies converged, there were three infantry brigades and three Warcraft cavalry squadrons, with a total number of about five thousand people.

The 5,000 men were holding on to the walls, barely touching Mark Dean's men.

After Mark Dean defeated the alliance between Earl Steven and the southern nobles, he also needed to cut off the food routes of the army and attack and control several key castles, and the army he personally brought to Jinshan Castle was only 18,000 men.

Losing the suddenness of the attack, Mark Dean could only order his soldiers to attack.

Jinshan Castle had complete fortifications, and although the defenders were small in number, they were well-trained and elite soldiers, and there was no progress on the first day of siege.

Although Mark Dean personally led the troops to raid, he was attacked by a large number of alchemy bombs, bursting arrows, magic feather arrows, and even the Warcraft cavalry were ambushed under the city walls, constantly releasing magic missiles to besiege Mark Dean.

Although in the battle, Mark Dean killed and wounded hundreds of soldiers, the defenders still did not collapse and withstood Mark Dean's onslaught, but Mark Dean consumed most of his magic power, and the ninth-order enchanted armor on his body was also severely worn.

Levin and Sox blocked Mark Dean's first round of onslaught, and Richard led the army with Haaland and approached the United Kingdom defense line on the east coast.

Now that the back road has been cut off by the enemy, Richard's department only carries seven days' provisions, although there are 500 tons of food hoarded in the space props, but this food is only enough for Richard's army to eat for three days.

The food is only enough to eat for ten days, and if the enemy cannot be defeated in ten days, Haaland must kill horses to satisfy his hunger with an army of 40,000 people, and when the horses and livestock are eaten, he must eat people in order to survive.

At such a critical time, Richard did not choose to deceive the soldiers, but made a brief pre-war mobilization and told the soldiers the real situation on the battlefield.

"Soldiers, our food routes have been cut off. The five thousand brothers of Jinshan Castle were also surrounded by enemies, and it was difficult to get out. Now we only have enough food to eat for ten days, and if we can't defeat the enemy in ten days, we will fail, and even if you barely survive your life, you will become slaves, and you will lose your freedom and live miserably for the rest of your life.

Therefore, in order to avoid such an outcome, we can only desperately break down the defense line of the United Kingdom army on the east coast, and we can go deep into the enemy's territory, rob money, food, and girls, and control the fate of the vanquished. At that time, whether it is a high-ranking aristocratic lady or a beautiful aristocratic lady, you need to be tactful under your crotch in order to save the lives of their relatives. ”

Under normal circumstances, the military discipline of the army led by Haaland is very strict, especially in the territory, and the punishment for violating military discipline is very severe, but when going abroad to fight and invade the enemy, in order to keep the soldiers morale and fight hard in battle, military discipline must be relaxed a little.

Although Richard indulged in robbery and rape by soldiers, he forbade soldiers to slaughter cities. Zooming in to the Dawn Plane Army, the moral level of Haaland and the soldiers is already at a relatively high level.

Even if the United Kingdom forces on the east coast avoided fighting, Harland's attack was still very rapid.

In just two days, Haaland led his regiment to attack the city three times, and Richard twice used starlight bombs to break down the enemy's counterattacks. Five battles were fought, three fortresses were overcome, and more than 20,000 enemy troops were annihilated.

The war has continued until now, and the enemy's Eastern Route Army has lost 90,000 soldiers.

The loss of 90,000 troops is equivalent to 40 percent of the battle losses, because many troops are lost in formation, and the remaining enemy troops are basically intact and can barely support them.

Richard had achieved a great victory at the front, and the vicinity of the Golden Hill Castle was no longer able to support it.

In the face of the attack of the legendary knight, there was no master of the same level, the defenders faced serious difficulties, only held for two days, and the losses were already very serious, although the defenders smashed Mark Dean's set of ninth-order enchanted armor, they still couldn't severely damage this person, and on their own side, they were killed by this legendary knight nearly a thousand people.

The war has continued until now, and the defenders are only 2,400 left, and there are more than 300 wounded soldiers, if it were not for the strict military law of the army led by Haaland, as well as good logistical support, and the pension system is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, the ordinary army, after suffering more than 60 percent casualties, would have been unable to support it.

The main force led by Richard is about eighty kilometers away from Jinshan Castle, and now the army led by Haaland has been intertwined with the defenders of the United Kingdom on the east coast, and it is not easy to withdraw, so through the Lion Cavalry, Richard issued a military order to the defenders of Jinshan Fort to retreat.

After receiving the warrant for the Lion Cavalry to be airdropped, Levin and Sox abandoned their wounded soldiers and gave the order to break out in the middle of the night.

As the saying goes, mercy is not in charge of the army, and although it is very inhumane to abandon the wounded, at the moment of life and death, the commander must make a choice, and this choice often obliterates human nature.

The breakout action was very decisive and swift, and the two did not choose to break through to the east and get closer to Richard, but went the opposite way and launched an attack to the west.

The two were taken by surprise, and the process of breaking through the encirclement was also very smooth.

Although Markine personally led the troops and chased them for some distance, Levine and Sox still escaped with their lives, and the troops who broke through the encirclement with them were still about 1,200 men.

Because Levine and Sox were wandering, Markion had to leave 3,000 soldiers behind to guard the city.

In the two-day siege battle, the United Kingdom troops on the east coast led by Mark Dean also lost more than 3,000 soldiers. Fighting with Earl Steven and the Southern Alliance, Makedeon's troops lost 4,000 men, attacked Jinshan Castle, lost 3,000 men, and cut off the food route for Haraland's army, leaving 18,000 men behind.

Now that Mark Dean can flank Richard's troops, there are only 12,000 men left, and the continuous hard fighting has also made this army lose its fighting spirit.

Through the lion and the wyvern, Richard already knew that Fort Jinshan had been lost, and that the enemy army was about to come after tomorrow.

Before the enemy arrived, Richard once again led the army with Haaland to launch a fierce attack, and in one day, despite fatigue, he attacked two castles in a row, and once again annihilated more than 10,000 enemies.

The war has been fought until now, and the soldiers led by Haaland to maintain high morale, relying on the support of artillery, five active sieges of the city, breaking five enemy castles, crushing the enemy's two counterattacks, and annihilating the 30,000 troops of the United Kingdom on the east coast. And their own losses were only 1,500 people.

The war has continued to this day, and with the losses of Levine and Sox, the losses of Haaland's army have approached 6,000 men. And the enemy army they annihilated was close to 100,000 people.

After this day of fighting, the front of the United Kingdom on the East Coast was already shaky and could barely be sustained.
