Section 126 tricks

At dawn, or more specifically, when the east showed the whiteness of the fish's belly, Ashrufat's army began to set off and leave the camp. This time he led the entire army, and only a limited number of guards remained in the camp.

The rest of the road is very calm, with a wide view and flat terrain. He didn't run into any trouble along the way - not the enemy scouts who showed up by chance and left immediately and quickly.

Ashrufat didn't send troops to stop the scouts—he knew they couldn't be stopped. His army was too large to hide his whereabouts - and if he did do that, it would take a long time of preparation and more than a bit of luck. The entire terrain conditions determined that this battle was bound to be a frontal battle, and a single tactical trick, such as surprise attacks, ambushes, detours, flanking attacks, etc., was almost impossible to achieve.

In addition, due to the high terrain of the Blood Fortress (this fortress is located on the mountainside), the future Dreadnought Legion will have a certain advantage of the terrain, that is, the condescending position. This is also somewhat of a disadvantage.

As mentioned earlier, it took about half a day to depart from the camp of Ashrufat and arrive at the city of the Blood Fortress. Arrival is one thing, sight is another, though. In the morning, the soldiers on the march were able to see the Blood Fortress in the distance.

This castle surprised Ashrufat for a while, and for ordinary soldiers, the impact was even greater. For a moment, the entire marching procession was in a commotion, and all those who had seen the Blood Fortress for the first time were discussing the castle in the distance, marveling at the kind of architecture that was beyond the capabilities of humanity.

In fact, although it was the second time that Ashrufat had seen the Blood Fortress, he was still a little shocked by the majesty of the castle that surpassed human abilities.

The actions of both sides were not unexpected. After receiving clear news of the enemy's movements, the Lord of the Blood Fang immediately led his army out of the city to meet the battle. The place of the battle was the vast flat land beneath the Blood Fortress. In fact, it is inappropriate to call it a "plain", more precisely, a hillside. The Blood Fortress is located halfway up the mountain, and this is the gentle slope leading to the gates of the Blood Fortress.

For the Chaos Realm, snow and ice cover is a common occurrence. In the regions closer to the north, there is little difference between autumn, winter and spring. But there are a few exceptions here. Due to the cover of the "Ridge of the World", a warmer area is sheltered in a cold land.

This season - there is no unified calendar in the realm of chaos, so few people can accurately distinguish the four seasons - is really a good time to fight. The air is dry and cold, and the ground is not covered with snow and ice, making it suitable for horses and beasts to gallop freely. A good vision is also conducive to chasing the dead and chasing the north to cover up the victory, and is not conducive to the escape of the defeated.

At this moment, an ominous wind is blowing in the air. Perhaps the murderous aura accumulated by the mortal army was too strong, and even affected the world itself. The original sun has been obscured by heavy clouds at some point.

Taking advantage of the landlord, before the arrival of Aeshurufat, the Bloodfang Lord had already completed the mobilization of the army one step ahead. In a way that has been carried over since ancient times, he divided his army into three groups on a flat area. The sadistic berserkers wielded their swords and formed a murderous formation.

Ashrufat's formation was a little slower, and the Bloodfang Lord didn't let go of this opportunity. Before the opponent could complete the arrangement, he ordered the light cavalry to attack.

Everyone knows that the gods are watching this grand war and carnage in the skies, just as those who are looking forward to their favorite entertainment shows. Many of them had to struggle to suppress their impatient impulses, eager to prove their worth in front of their gods in the coming bloody battle. The officers among them, mainly the Chaos Champions, each wanted to prove to their gods as much as possible that they were stronger than the others, so that they could gain a higher level of status and power.

At this time, as in all such large-scale battles, the light cavalry of the two armies moved much more quickly than the main forces. The lightly armed forces of the Chaos Marauder cavalry had rushed forward at a much faster pace, ready to begin the prelude. Unlike during the invasion of Gruny, the two Chaos legions had similar equipment and fighting styles, and they did not use pistols, so the hussar engagement was essentially a bloody melee battle. Therefore, the outcome of this battle can be easily judged, and any retreat is not a tactical clever arrangement, but a defeat that cannot withstand the pressure.

At this time, the lightly armed troops had basically separated from the brigade. The main forces of the two armies were still slowly approaching, but the light cavalry was already in a state of combat readiness.

Soon, the apophobic warriors shouted the name of the god of blood in a highly excited and bloodthirsty tone, and then rode their horses into a frantic charge. They are few in number, so they hope to defeat the enemy by disrupting and breaking through the enemy's formation with a swift attack. In fact, they had this opportunity, as their opponents were slow to react, and they rode their horses and stood still as the Sadistic warriors charged.

Anyone knows that in a cavalry engagement, the charging side has a great advantage over the charged side. The side that is numerically inferior will have a chance to win only if it breaks through the enemy line with the first wave of attacks, rather than stopping and getting entangled.

This sluggish reaction quickly attracted the attention of the Bloodfang Lord. This is not normal - at least the Bloodfang Lord knows that a Chaos legion, a Chaos Lord, cannot make such a mistake.

"Stupid guy. The Demon Prince laughed at his retinue. "Sure enough, it's a set of magic again. ”

Magic lasts for a limited time, so many spells are not used as early as possible, but are used in the moments before the two sides go to war. Obviously, there is such a thing as zài on the other side. At the moment when the light cavalry of the two armies is about to touch, all kinds of magic will definitely appear. When the time comes, the advantage of charging will be gone.

"Let's teach our poor Chaos Lord a lesson. The Bloodfang Lord said. Then he casually pulled out a large handful of demon-breaking scrolls from the box beside him.

All the mages throughout the battlefield felt the unusual fluctuations in the winds of magic—and such fluctuations were not uncommon. In fact, many of them have experienced similar incidents, including Ashrufat.

"Demon Breaker Scroll?" Ashrufat immediately understood the source of the problem. His gaze was at the rear of the Dreadbook Legion, where someone had used multiple demon-breaking scrolls in a very short period of time, thus channeling a regional disturbance of the winds of magic. In other words, within the affected range, casting magic becomes an almost impossible thing to do.

"Immediately give orders!" Ashruphat didn't hesitate for a second, and immediately shouted at the herald beside him. "Get all the wizards with the magic disk out of here and go around to the left. ”

A wizard apprentice who doesn't have a magic disk may have a hard time mobilizing for a while, but a genuine Tzeentch wizard with a magic disk can move quickly. Moreover, because they fly in the sky, they actually do not need additional troops for protection.

"It should be too late......" Ashrufat felt the distance. The speed of the magic disk is very fast, as long as they can fly away from the area where the magic wind is disturbed in time, they should be able to provide magical support...... "Remember, let them use magic according to the situation, and provide support as much as possible......"

His voice stopped, as he noticed that the disturbance of the winds of magic continued to grow...... The other party is still using the Demon Breaker Scroll. The area of disorder has expanded, and now, no one can say whether the wizards will be able to go to an unaffected place and continue to cast spells, because no one knows how large the scope of this inability to cast spells will be.

To make matters worse, this continues.

"Hahaha...... Let's see what else you have to do!" On the other side of the battlefield, the Blood Fang Lord watched with satisfaction as another Demon Breaker Scroll turned into ashes in his hand. "That's pretty much enough!" he didn't deliberately learn magic, but he still had a lot of magical abilities. "All your wizards are now going to be waste...... Hmm......" He closed his eyes and felt it. "The winds of magic aren't fierce today...... But for at least two hours, the disorder doesn't go away...... Two hours ......" he smirked. "The battle has long been decided. ”

He didn't have to think about what would happen two hours later. The attacks of the Dreadcorps have always been ferocious and wild, destroying and killing enemies with killing and blood, rather than slowly exhausting the opponent's body to win. This means that if this battle is not over for two hours, then the Bloodfang Lord will basically lose.

He looked at the box containing the Demon Breaker. At this point, half of the inventory in the box had been cleared, but the rest was no longer needed. "Someone!" he shouted to his entourage. "Send the box back to the castle. ”

After saying this, his attention returned to the battlefield ahead.

The accident of the magic obviously disrupted the other party's pace, and the guy named Aerufat (the Bloodfang Lord hated the name because he actually had the same name as the southerner's general) was not too slow to react, but it was still a little late. The Bloodfang Lord's light cavalry had accelerated to the maximum at this point, shouting and pounced on the enemy, who had just begun to accelerate. All their precious time had been wasted waiting for magic.

In an instant, the two cavalry collided head-on, like two waves colliding, inspiring countless water foams. The Lord of Bloodfang expects a slaughter, and his cavalry will tear apart the opposing line in one fell swoop in the face of the great advantage created by the speed of his horse......

Then he found that the two armies were actually deadlocked. Although his men increased the speed of their horses to the maximum, they were unable to break through the opponent's line. The two armies were entangled and fought each other. The terrorists fought with great valor, but that didn't change the fact that they couldn't break through the enemy lines.

How could it be? The Demon Prince couldn't help but make a very humane move, that is, rubbing his eyes. This is a knee-jerk move, because everyone knows that he who has been sublimated into a demon prince will not have the inherent flaws of human beings, such as dazzling and the like.

Then he suddenly discovered that the vanguard of the opposing side was not light cavalry, but heavy cavalry.

Because on the battle lines that fight each other and entangle each other, you can see many Chaos armors. Since the Bloodfang Lord didn't send his own heavy cavalry, those cavalry covered in Chaos armor were the enemy's.

He was using light cavalry to storm the line of heavy cavalry, which is why he failed to break through the enemy line.
