When Sorop was disposed of by Skipp and the others, Simon's situation became even more chaotic due to his retreat signal, although his judgment was not wrong, whether it was due to the real riot in the city or Lu Chen's survival, but there was too much difference in time.

The rain of arrows from behind had already caused great damage, and then the two battalion commanders were now flanking their opponents in front and back, the strength was far beyond the maximum estimate of a legion, and it was also equipped with a powerful mage regiment, without any hesitation, the two immediately issued an order to fight and retreat to the south gate.

But it didn't take long for a catastrophe to happen, first the signal of the enemy at the north gate caused the low morale to fall again and again, and then the retreat signal from the flagship caused their complete collapse.

There was some surprise at the enemy's command, but since they were willing to let him go, Lu Chen also accepted this "kindness", and the result would only be better anyway. When he saw that Valles had left the people to maintain order near the musket erected, he gave the officers around him an order to quickly organize the evacuation of the people in the city.

――――

It was a little earlier than expected, but not too much, and when they joined Mark and Katrick, who had turned back after driving the enemy, the sky was cloudy and white. Not only children, but also many adults showed fatigue after a night of nervousness, which caused the procession that had not gone far at all to slow down immediately.

"My lord, I'll take someone here for a while. Cattrick proudly asked for the Queen's task. Because his team was to return to the fleet, he had a great advantage over the others, a two-hour march.

Valais and Mark, who knew how much power Lu Chen had, did not speak, but their eyes also revealed their willingness to leave behind to block the enemy for everyone.

The team of 30,000 people is really a bit big, and it is the old and weak women and children who account for two-thirds of the people, Lu Chen also feels extremely tricky for them who can't walk fast, but he can't let go of these people and let them scatter their determination to flee for their lives.

After continuing to walk with the team for a while. Glancing back at Brion, who still hadn't disappeared in his left eye, Lu Chen could only give an order: "Cattrick, you and your men take all the wounded soldiers and return to the fleet immediately; ”

"This~" Katrick was pulled by Valais just as he wanted to object, while Mark hesitated. gave a military salute and took the reluctant order.

"I know you have feelings, but you are soldiers, and as long as my orders are not excessive, you must obey them. After pressing it for a moment, Lu Chen continued: "The enemy will most likely blockade the mouth of the Diana River next, and the fleet of the Armorine Empire may also go south. So~ when you return to the team, you will not be able to be idle, you must find a way to evacuate, and then go south to find Evelyn, or join Craig, if you really can't, hide in Lake Stargne, in short, do not let the fleet fall into the hands of the enemy. ”

One regiment of Brion was dismantled, and the defenders had only two battalions. After removing the injuries, there were only about three thousand left, but although Lu Chen's reason sounded a little reluctant, it was understandable, not to mention that his first sentence decided that they could not disobey. Cattrick, who couldn't let go of the fleet, could only salute like Mark and reluctantly accepted the order.

Then Lu Chen asked Valais to break up his men into three wings, guarding the people in the front, middle and back, and continuing to "use his authority" to order Valles to open the way in front. He himself stayed at the end.

――――

Just before dawn, Brion had miraculously broken out of the city, standing in front of the city lord's mansion full of corpses and wounded, listening to the loss reports of an entire battalion, and Sorop once again angrily ordered: torture the living Brion soldiers in the city lord's mansion until they breathed their last breath.

The death of more than 2,000 people is not a big deal, but such a failure is undoubtedly a drop of ink on the excellent life resume. It's like being slapped in the face. Sorop even had the smug sneer of those in his family who were jealous of his talents, and the most troublesome thing was that any family idiot who wanted to take control of the military would inevitably take advantage of this to amplify the situation and try to replace himself in any way. At that point, the consequences will be unimaginable.

"Your Highness. The pursuing force has been assembled, you see......"

"Pursuing troops, did I say I wanted to chase them, who gave you the right!" Sorop felt his anger tumbling at the thought that the family members and ministers who supported this cooperative expedition would definitely fight Lucien for the land. Although he is well aware that he is just an incompetent member of the royal family who only wants to have fun, he understands that a truly happy life needs to be built on a peaceful and stable society.

The officer who wanted to take credit was frightened and could only wait to the side, because it was the first time he had seen such a big fire as this strange-tempered prince, but it was at this moment that an unfamiliar voice relieved him.

"I'm sorry, Your Royal Highness Prince Sorop, we were attacked by unknown forces behind us last night, and the entire camp has not yet recovered from the chaos, so I'm afraid we won't be able to pursue the enemy with your army. Before the Palmer arrived, they walked as if they were barely able to get out of a hurry.

Glancing at the "dusty" Palmer, Sorop calmed down a little, although he knew that he was pretending, he still cooperated and said: "Yes, that's a pity, without you as a guide, this pursuit is just a futile loss of the soldiers' morale...... In that case, then they are considered lucky. Anyway, in such a short period of time, there will definitely not be much to take with you. ”

Pretending to be a pity, he whispered but deliberately said the latter sentence so that people could hear it, and then Sorop continued without giving anyone a chance to speak: "Hehe, General Palmer, you see how we are also outsiders, if we rob the property in the city like this, we will be called robbers, which is very bad for our reputation, and I will trouble you to help me." Well, all the things I have collected will only need to be divided into half of them, and they will be regarded as the settling-in allowance for my poor soldiers who died in battle, what do you think?"

The periphery of Brion City has been destroyed, but it still has some value, and according to the tripartite agreement, it can also grasp some initiative in this area, but now that her master has appeared in advance, it is not an ordinary hot hand;

"Haha, that's really thanks to the general. Tell the soldiers who have been busy all night to go back and recuperate, and don't let the Imperial people who arrive in a few days see the joke. The thorny problem of not being able to refuse explicitly was solved, and Sorop's mood finally improved a lot, but his heart was still inevitably a little unsteady: "If something like this happens, most of you will be transferred back, but Brian is already Angus's, and those wastes in the royal family who only want to expand their territory should have no choice, unless Angus is really willing to spit it out......"

――――

And just when Lu Chen was worried that there would be no pursuers, and Palmer, who had obtained Brion, was worried about how to make the other two allies confront Lu Chen, the small team of less than twenty people who fled at night finally encountered friendly troops who were watching from the periphery and did not dare to approach shortly after the sun rose.
