Section 82 key

He had no other choice. The enemy had put the main attack on his defensive line, and all he could do was to brace himself and fight to the death.

Although he shouted, "We can't hold it anymore", if people from other tribes were observing here at this moment, they probably wouldn't have come to such a conclusion. Why? Although the situation on the battlefield is not good, on the whole, it has begun to turn into a state of stalemate. The enemy was still pressing, but their attack had been blocked by Yan zhòng. The Chaos Eggs were still rampaging there, but they were separated from the large forces behind them, and they were no longer able to tear apart the enemy formation. Most importantly, despite the heavy casualties and unfavorable fighting conditions, the Gars tribe did not show signs of demoralization. This means that they will hold out for at least a long time.

For the other two tribes, that's enough. What they need is for the Gass tribe not to be quickly routed, not for the Gass tribe to retain their strength. In fact, every tribe thinks in their hearts: on the premise of victory, the casualties of other tribes are as great as possible.

In any case, the Gass tribe still has the advantage in numbers. Under the supervision of officers at all levels, they surged upwards like a tide, and surrounded the fierce Chaos Eggs with their numbers, so that these monsters could only fight in place, losing the ability to continue charging. On the front line of the soldiers' engagement, they also relied on numbers to sustain a wave of offensives. Although Sag tore through the enemy's line of defense and penetrated deep into the center of the enemy line, the enemy still put up a stubborn resistance, narrowing the formation and compressing the defensive area, continuing to form a defensive circle that could still resist.

However, it is clear that the casualties of the Gass tribe far outnumbered the other side. As they retreated to compress their formation, many of the soldiers were divided and surrounded by the enemy, and then annihilated one by one. If the casualties were measured at this time, for every enemy down, the Garth tribe would fall three, four, or more. If this continues, sooner or later the Gass tribe will be defeated due to the exhaustion of their combat power.

It's hard to say how much time this will take, though.

Just as the Chaos Champion was trying to observe the battlefield and think about how to retain his strength, suddenly a series of exclamations came out from his entourage.

Right beside them, there was an inexplicable energy surging in the air. This is beyond the normal concept of magic, and even people who don't know anything about magic can clearly feel it. These energies were surging, converging in a clearing not far from them, and a figure gradually appeared in the clearing.

It was too late, and in the blink of an eye, a strange figure had appeared on their side. The monster was a majestic man, with a pair of large, twisted horns on its head and a pair of hooves on its lower limbs.

"Demons!" exclaimed more than one person.

Even an idiot can understand that it is not a good thing that a demon has appeared in this place, and it is definitely not the evil god who has mercy and sent a demon to help them fight.

This thought soon proved right: the next moment, the demon stood up. Its body was so strong and majestic, it was as tall as a tower. The demon's magical gaze stared at the prey in front of him. Unfortunately for these people, this is not a rainy day, this demon is less affected by the repulsive forces of the material world, and its power can be exerted to the maximum at this moment.

Many witnesses found themselves unable to take their eyes off the nightmarish monster, but there was a certain instinct in their hearts that they strongly wished not to make eye contact with the demon. The monster's gaze did indeed possess supernatural powers, because in the blink of an eye, several people who were facing him fell down, because the gaze was enough to stop the hearts of these mortals.

Then, just under everyone's gaze, a magic sword appeared in the demon's hand. From the black smoke continuously released from the sword's body, it can be seen that this weapon has a powerful evil power condensed. The monster brandished its magic sword and rushed towards it. Although its body is magnificent, its movements are dexterous and agile, smooth and fast. Before anyone could escape, it was close to hand-to-hand combat.

The killing began.

The anomaly was immediately catastrophic.

The size of the demon is so large and so striking that the warriors on the front line of the Gass tribe have also discovered it.

In fact, from a completely objective standpoint, the real lethality of one demon is no more than ten Chaos Eggs. Even if the demons can slash one at a time, the Chaos Egg is also invincible. But it has a religious impact that is far more than ten Chaos Eggs.

For the Gass tribe, who have reached their limit, this demon is the last straw that breaks the camel's back. In front of them were the closing enemy, in the middle of them were the rampage of the uncontrollable Chaos Eggs, and behind them a powerful demon appeared. The false morale of those who had been severely urged and intimidated collapsed in an instant, and the warlords who had urged them to fight were scattered by the demons in their faces. Suddenly, the Gass tribe began a general rout.

Both in front and in the rear, all the soldiers gave up the fight almost at the same time, turned and fled backwards. Even if there were a few who planned to resist to the end, they were forced by the flow of people to rout backwards.

The battle turned into a one-sided slaughter, and the mercenaries (almost all of whom had been bought by Ashrufat) took advantage of the situation to cover up, making the rout unstoppable in a very short time.

The tight formation is no longer there, and the next thing is naturally a scuffle. The warriors of the Garth tribe who did not escape the battle line in time were almost all besieged and completely annihilated in a very short time. This is also why the impact of defeat on the army is catastrophic, after a defeat, even if the casualties are not particularly severe, the entire army is no longer worthy of a battle. Because the defeat is not only an impact on the morale of the whole, but also a great purge of those elite units and backbones of the army. Because in the process of defeat, the brave are more likely to die, but the cowardly have more chances to live.

On that small hill at the rear of the battle line, everyone saw this qiē. Eshurufat's summoning of demons didn't come as much surprise - no one who panicked was a fool, so he had long known that the Chaos Lord had the ability to summon and command demons. Then again, they may not have seen such abilities, but they have heard of them - perhaps not outrageous for a Chaos Lord who is favored by the gods.

Bruce was standing not far from Eshurufat, so he was the first to notice Eshuruphat turning his head and walking backwards.

"Your Excellency......" he was amazed. What does this mean? Flee in battle? If this behavior was not surprising before the defeat of the Gass tribe, but now the situation is reversed. If before they only had a half-percent chance of winning, now the odds of both sides have become five to five. It was a trade-off process, and the defeat of the Gass tribe not only exposed the flanks of the other members of the coalition forces, but also boosted the morale of the silent panic troops. Because such a total rout is something that cannot be ignored on the battlefield, almost everyone noticed it at the same time. "What are you going to do?"

"Gone. Ashrufat replied without looking back. "The work has been done. ”

"What?" Bruce was surprised, and a hand reached out from the spur and patted him on the shoulder. The Chaos Champion turned around and saw none other than the high-ranking wizard Hardmond.

"Master Ashrufat is going back. Hadmund said. "Don't disturb him. ”

"Go back...... However...... "Don't look at it, it seems that there is a chance to win at this time, but due to the weakness of the frontal forces, the offensive seems to be fierce, but in fact it is a false appearance. The main reason why the left flank and the center are still on the offensive is that the enemy has taken a defensive position. Truth be told, once the enemy relentlessly disregards a single counterattack, no one can be sure how long the left and center will hold out, and perhaps they will lose without waiting for the victorious friendly support of the right flank.

"The battle is over. Hadmund said.

"It's over?" Bruce still didn't understand what the other meant, because it was obvious that the battle was far from over - as mentioned earlier, the victory was only five or five at this point.

"It's over. Hadmund said. "Next, both the Lord of Runes and the Void Thorn Tribe will retreat from the battlefield. They may have left one force behind, but the rest of the battle is only the end. All you have to do is bite them as hard as you can, preferably by killing as many enemies as possible so that they can learn more lessons. ”

"Don't you understand?" Hadmund looked at Bruce's expression (the Chaos Champion was not wearing a helmet at this time) and a smile on his face that was hard to describe. "They have made -- or are about to make -- the choices of smart people. ”

"What choice?"

"The collapse of the Gass tribe is a foregone conclusion, and the remaining enemy has two options, the first is to take a gamble, send a part of the force to cover the flank, and then attack us head-on regardless of the situation. As long as you break through the enemy's front before the flanks are attacked, then victory is still in sight. The second option is to give up the battle, and gradually retreat from the battlefield after the elite soldiers. What choice will you make?"

"Out of the battlefield and ...... Fight for a ......???"

"Think about it, if you were the commander of the Void Thorn Tribe, what choice would you make? Because if the Lord of Runes chooses to strike hard, you still have a chance to return to the battlefield...... And the Lord of Runes will attract most of the enemy's military power, so this action will benefit you. Conversely, if the Lord of Runes chooses to retreat as well, then you won't be able to choose to strike hard. Because this is equivalent to you attracting most of the enemy's strength to the benefit of the opponent...... Do you understand?"

Bruce came to his senses immediately.

"Do you know why Lord Ashrufat said he had an absolute advantage? Hadmund said. "Don't look at them as coalition forces, but for any tribe, being conservative, evasive, and defensive is the best choice. A brave and all-out fight will only benefit others. So that's it - don't look at how many of them there are, but in reality, they can only be beaten, and if they lose even the slightest loss, they will retreat. Don't be stunned, we still have to do the finishing work!"
