Twenty-six Chess Opponents Chapter 9 Sacrifice
Afterwards, Luz commanded his troops to go into hiding and began to wait for reinforcements from the town of Vilai. However, they should have arrived a long time ago, but they never showed up.
To make matters worse, the scouts have spotted enemy troop trails.
"Strange, why haven't the troops from Weilai Town arrived yet?" The situation was unknown, and the soldiers couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
"Lord Rutz, would you like to send someone to look in the direction of Vilai?" the officer suggested, "they may be lost. ”
Lutz shook his head: "No need, if they come, they will definitely be able to arrive." ”
In this situation, Lutz remained calm. Silent and silent, he was like a reassuring stone, calming the restless soldiers.
Half an hour later, the enemy finally appeared.
5,000 enemy troops who invaded the center appeared in everyone's field of vision, heading towards the ambush circle.
It can be seen that the poor terrain here has had a great impact on the enemy, and the Dirk army, which was originally strictly disciplined, was very loose at this time, with soldiers carrying weapons with tired faces, and a group of light cavalry serving as a guard on the side of the team.
The current state of the enemy army is the best time for an ambush. But the troops of the town of Kovai were nowhere to be seen.
"Lord Rutz, what should I do?" said the officer anxiously.
If you force your way and attack with the 2,000 people you already have, it would be no different from suicide. But allowing the enemy to pass is tantamount to completely exposing the rear to the opponent.
Now that they are completely in a dilemma, then Luz's decision is...
"Still stunned for what to do, the enemy has already come, ready to fight. Beamon said lightly.
The officer was shocked and said, "My lord, are you really ready to attack?"
Lutz glanced at him: "Remember, the lives of tens of thousands of friendly soldiers now, as well as the lives of our relatives and civilians in the rear. It's all in our hands. ”
"Even if you die, you have to crucify the enemy here, understand?"
The officer took a slow breath, and when he raised his head again, his eyes had become extremely determined: "Understood, we will never let these enemies go one step further." ”
This time he was in charge of intercepting the enemy troops. All of them were the elite of the Hydington army, many of whom were natives of Hydington or had been recruited from among the refugees.
Their families are all in the rear, and in order to protect their homeland, no one flinched even if there was a huge difference in strength.
So, when all the enemy troops entered the ambush circle, Luz suddenly got up. I saw that his body swelled rapidly, and soon turned into a huge Beamon beast.
Luz let out a loud roar at the sky. Rushed towards the enemy forces below. Immediately after, behind him, all 2,000 Hydington soldiers got up and killed them without looking back.
The worst battle of the battle began...
Raymond's whole body was violently agitated.
"Lord Raymond, what's wrong with you?" Lorna noticed his strangeness.
Raymond shook his head: "I don't know what to do, but I have a very bad premonition in my heart." ”
"Are you worried about the war?" said Lorna.
Raymond shook his head, "No, I just feel like I'm going to lose something extremely precious." ”
Then. Tavent slowed down to walk with Raymond, saying, "I didn't think even you would have to gain or lose. But don't worry. The Dirks don't know about our existence, and when we get to the battlefield, we're going to have those guys fighting. ”
After leaving the Giant's Seal, Raymond rushed to the ambush site in the middle with reinforcements, and as long as he could deal with the 5,000 enemy troops, he could deal a heavy blow to the Dirk army. Make Renard reconsider the war against Headington.
But in the end, it will be up to Chip to be able to deal with Dirk's king.
However, because the road was so rough and difficult to navigate, even if they didn't stop, it took them most of the day. If you count the time, Luz should have already started fighting the enemy army by this time.
This also made Raymond more and more worried, they only had 5,000 people. Can the enemy be dealt with?
Seeing that he was about to arrive at the ambush site, Raymond's heart couldn't help but jump. Just then, several centaur warriors approached them from the front.
These centaurs were the fastest on the band, and were assigned by Tavent as scouts to detect movement ahead. At this time, seeing them come back in a hurry, they must have discovered something.
"What's wrong?" Tavent asked as they got closer.
It is dangerous for a person to talk while riding a horse, because it is easy to bite his tongue. However, because the centaur and the horse body are integrated, they have no scruples about this, which is really convenient.
A centaur scout said, "There's a Dirk army fighting ahead. ”
As soon as Raymond heard this, he knew that his troops must be ambushing the Dirk army, and he hurriedly asked, "How is the situation over there?"
"Dead," said the centaur.
"What?" Raymond was stunned.
The centaur had a look of apprehension on his face: "The battlefield ahead is really miserable. All those who attacked the Dirk army were dead. ”
Raymond and Lorna glanced at each other, both of them looking incredulous. How could it be that there were 5,000 people on their side, and even if they couldn't be defeated, they wouldn't be wiped out.
"No, there's another one. At this time, another centaur said.
"Yes. The first centaur slapped his forehead: "There is one more alive." However, it was a monster we had never seen before, very large, but it was already surrounded by the Dirk army. ”
Before he could finish speaking, Raymond had already slammed the horse on the belly. The war horse let out a wail and suddenly sped up and galloped out.
Lutz! It's Lutz! At this moment, the ominous feeling in Raymond's heart became stronger and stronger.
What's going on, and what did the battle turn out to be like this?
Seeing Raymond rushing forward desperately, Tavent knew something different. He raised his head and shouted, and the entire cavalry force suddenly picked up speed and rushed forward with Raymond.
"That's... Is that thing dead?"
Dozens of Dirk's spearmen formed a circle, their sharp spears pointed to the center, all with expressions of fear on their faces, and several of them were holding spear tips that were even trembling slightly.
Reynard's troops. It's all the elites who have been through a hundred battles, I don't know what can make them afraid like this?
At this time, if you look down from a high altitude, you can see that there are thousands of Dirk soldiers on the outer layer with the circle of spearmen as the center. Now. All gathered around, their attention all focused on one person.
In the center of the encirclement of the spearmen, the Beamon Behemoth stood tall.
Lutz led his soldiers to attack Dirk's troops, but there was a gap in the combat effectiveness of the two sides, coupled with the fact that they fought more with less, and they were in the wilderness where there was no danger to rely on, the result can be imagined.
On the vast battlefield, corpses were strewn all over the field, and rivers of blood flowed. The corpses were scattered almost everywhere the eye could see, which showed the tragedy of the battle.
Flocks of vultures hovered in mid-air, staring greedily at the delicious meal below. All 2,000 soldiers who attacked the Dirk army died heroically, and now there was only one man left on Headington's side.
Lutz!
The huge Beamon beast was covered in blood, and there were more than a dozen visible wounds on his body alone, and there was a terrible scar on his chest that was almost bone-piercing. The muscles are turned out, and at first glance they are the result of a heavy axe chop. Two spears pierced him in the abdomen. In addition, there were dozens of arrows stuck in Lutz's front chest and back, and drops of blood trickled down the broken shafts.
Due to the fact that there were so many wounds, the oozing blood turned Beamon's hair into wisps of blood-red, and at his feet, the blood that flowed out of it pooled into a large puddle on the ground.
Rao is so. The spearmen only dared to surround him from a distance, and did not dare to take a step forward.
Because at the feet of Luz, in addition to his own blood, there are more mutilated corpses of Dirk soldiers!
Standing there, Luz couldn't stop but have blood flowing from his body. It's been a long time since it's been moved. The spearmen around him, you look at me, I look at you, and walk cautiously forward together.
The circle of spears kept shrinking, and the tip of the spear almost touched Rutz's body. Seeing that he was still motionless, the spearmen all looked happy.
It seems that this monster is really dead.
Unfortunately, their joy did not last long, and the eyes of the Beamon beast opened, and at the same time, Luz circled his hands forward, holding dozens of spears in front of him under his armpits.
The spearmen were taken aback and hurried back, but a dozen men pulled back together, but the shaft of the spear did not move. Immediately after, Luz jerked his hands back, and the spearmen felt a tremendous force pull them forward, and everyone involuntarily fell towards Luz.
Then, Beamon spread its huge claws and swung it towards the crowd.
In an instant, the sky was covered with flying blood and severed limbs, and a dozen elite Dirk spearmen turned into fragmented pieces of flesh in an instant.
The corpses fell to the ground one after another, and several human heads smashed into the blood at Luz's feet, and immediately splashed with brilliant blood flowers.
"It's... This monster!"
Seeing the tragic death of his companion, the spearmen behind Luz hurriedly stabbed him, and more than a dozen spears pierced Ruz's back together. The intense pain caused him to let out a wild roar, and the Beamon beast turned violently, and a flying pounce crushed all the soldiers behind him, and then slapped it like crazy.
In the blink of an eye, the spearmen had turned into a mess of meat sauce, red shredded flesh and blood, white bones and brains mixed together like a carpet with strange patterns.
By this time, the massive blood loss and severe injuries had made Luz almost mad, and he crawled to his feet with red eyes, glaring fiercely at the Dirk soldiers around him, the spears on his back, trembling with his movements.
I didn't expect it to be like this, Luz is still so fierce. Under the pressure of his terrifying momentum, for a moment, the thousands of Dirk soldiers present actually shrank back in unison.
"What are you afraid of, this guy is dying, just..."
However, before he could finish his sentence, the officer suddenly felt a darkness in front of him, and followed a huge shadow above his head under his hood.
Lutz trampled the officer under his feet, and the weight of his whole body sent the body straight into the ground. Everyone heard a click, and something very brittle seemed to burst.
Holding up the officer's headless corpse, Luz raised his head to the sky and roared, as if to announce how small the enemy was in front of him.
"Are you still Dirk's soldiers, and how long will you delay for an enemy?" at this time, the commander of Dirk's army shouted angrily, "Quick. Kill him for me!"
Under the pressure of the military order, the soldiers around rushed towards Luz. Luz directly used the officer's corpse as a weapon and swept it in front of him, and immediately a dozen people flew out of the body, but more enemies made up for it.
A heavily armored tomahawk roared and rushed in front of Ruz and slashed Ruz in the thigh with an axe. Blood gushed out in an instant.
However, before the axe could feel complacent, Luz grabbed him by the body, pinched his feet with the other hand, and lifted them above his head, tearing the man in half along with the armor with a roar.
At this moment, seven or eight spearmen circled behind Ruz and stabbed the spears into his back. Dozens of shield-mounted soldiers rushed up from the left and right, using their shields to form a wall and sandwich Luz in the middle.
"He couldn't move. Kill him!" the Commander screamed.
The three tomahawkers took the opportunity to rush forward, and the axes in their hands slashed towards Luz's chest.
Luz let out a muffled roar from his throat, and the muscles in his body swelled. He twisted on the spot, and all the shield men who were squeezing him flew out of the air, and at the same time threw the corpses of the two tomahawkers in his hand at the onrushing axemen, and immediately knocked them on their backs.
At this moment, the force of Lutz's swing body caused the spearman behind him to stagger, and Ruz turned around and waved his giant claws. Send all these unlucky eggs to hell at once.
I didn't expect that even this would not kill him, and the rest of the soldiers who wanted to rush over. Fearfully stepped back again.
However, this outburst also exhausted Luz's most powerful strength, and the haughty Beamon Beast shook a little, its massive body shortened, and finally fell to one knee on the ground.
"He's not going to do it, kill him quickly!" the commander saw this. Screaming.
Finally, one of the spearmen mustered up his courage and rushed towards Ruz with a spear in both hands.
With a pop, the spear plunged straight into Luz's left chest.
Even the spearmen themselves couldn't believe that they could be so easy to get, and he froze in place. Luz let out a roar. The giant claw gripped the shaft of the spear, but he didn't have the strength to break it anymore.
Two more soldiers rushed forward, and three Dirk soldiers grabbed the shaft of their spears and pushed forward desperately.
The spear was sent forward, followed by a bloody tip piercing through Luz's back.
"Kill... Kill him! The monster is finally dead. The people around immediately erupted in cheers.
Luz knelt on the ground, his hands grasping the shaft of the spear, but he could no longer exert any strength. He gasped for air, blood spurting from his mouth and nose with every breath he had.
At this moment, the Dirk soldiers on the periphery suddenly let out an exclamation, followed by a panic all around, and the soldiers who were surrounding Luz just now all turned around, and someone kept shouting something.
Luz slowly raised his head, and from his blurred vision, he saw a large group of rushing shadows rushing towards him.
He couldn't see what the shadows were, and he couldn't hear them in his ears. But there was only one, the figure at the forefront, clearly visible in Lutz's eyes.
"Young master, I have not failed in my mission, these enemies have not taken a step forward. ”
"But it's a pity that I can't see your victory anymore. ”
A smile of relief appeared on the corner of his mouth, and the huge body of the Beamon Beast fell to the ground.
"Lutz !!!!!"
In the distance, Raymond's eyes were split when he saw Luz's huge body fall to the ground.
He galloped, raised his sword in his hand, leaped from his horse, and slashed off the head of the terrified enemy commander the moment he crossed his head.
Behind him, the centaurs and steppe cavalry rushed into the Dirk army with an unstoppable force.
Raymond came to the place where Luz had fallen, and before the horse could stop, he jumped down and rushed towards Luz.
The unconscious Luz had regained his human form, soaked in a pool of his own blood. As his body shrunk, the horrific wounds were all the more terrifying, leaving him with scarcely a single piece of skin intact.
Raymond picked up Luz: "Luz, wake up, I'm back, reinforcements are coming, we are victorious, wake up." ”
However, this loyal subordinate who had followed Raymond since the Orc Empire, the invincible Beamon warrior, could no longer open his eyes.
At this moment, the battle on all sides continues. The steppe knights relentlessly pursued Dirk's soldiers, and everywhere there were galloping horses, running figures, dying screams and horses' hooves roaring.
However, Raymond turned a deaf ear to all this, and just quietly held Luz's corpse, and the scenes between the past and Luz appeared in front of his eyes like a picture.
I don't know how long it took, a small hand was on Raymond's shoulder.
"Lord Raymond, we have won. ”
Raymond turned around, and behind him, the vast wilderness had turned into an asura field.
The Godan steppe warriors' hatred for Dirk made them not let go of any Dirk soldier. The land as far as the eye could see was completely red with blood, corpses covered the ground, and even the vultures in the air were frightened by this terrible scene.
In this battle, a total of more than 7,000 lives were forever returned to the arms of the gods. At some point, dark clouds covered the sky, and the rain fell as if the gods were crying for the cruelty of war.
"Lord Raymond, the battle is over, let's go back. There was a sound of horses' hooves, and Tavent slowly walked behind Raymond.
Raymond nodded, holding Luz's body and standing up: "Luz, let's go, we should go back." ”
"The corpses here," Lorna whispered.
"When the war is over, I will send someone to gather these soldiers. Raymond said: "Whether it is the enemy or our warriors, they will be buried." ”
Lorna nodded with a pale face, she had been very heroic in the battle, but it was only after the battle that she realized what a terrible scene she had in front of her.
Placing Luz's body on horseback, Raymond and the steppe knights left the bloody land and headed for Tars.
When they were all gone, several vultures descended from the sky. Standing on top of the mountain of corpses, they should have been partying to their heart's content, but they stretched their necks and let out a dazed wail... (To be continued......)
