Chapter 685: Radical General

At this time, Ryan, Wolfhead, Fuller, and Hank are engaged in a heated argument, if nothing else, about how to divide up these routs.

After some quarrels, in the end, Ryan overwhelmed everyone as a commander and made a fairly fair decision, that is, Ryan led the wolf-headed and Fuller's cavalry, a total of 15,000 centaurs, to pursue the majority of the routed army, leaving 5,000 heavy cavalry to cooperate with Hank's 5,000 navy and 5,000 archers to deal with the enemy's 5,000 infantry who had just run down.

After Ryan and the others left with the cavalry troops, Hank laughed wickedly, looked at the enemy hoplites who were still running for their lives in the distance but couldn't run far for half a day, and ordered loudly and vigorously: "Surround them." ”

Most of these hoplites in the Eternal Empire are still in good shape, only one legion has been crippled, and less than half of them remain. The two army commanders ran wildly with their subordinates, and said dissatisfiedly: "Those guys are too immoral, let's come to charge into the dangerous battle, and when they escape, these guys don't even wait for us, it's too fucking unsophisticated." ”

The legion commander named Locke said, "That's it, don't let me see them again, or Lao Tzu will kill them." But then again, Lloyd, we have no food, no support, and we're surrounded by enemy troops, so what are we going to do now?"

Lloyd looked behind him, saw that there was no enemy chasing him, and let out a sigh of relief and said, "Let's take one step at a time, and then run for your life." ”

Locke dressed in a rough manner and said: "How to escape, even if we run for two days at this speed, people can't catch up after riding horses for half a day." ”

Lloyd thought for a moment and proposed, "Either we should lose our armor, or we will really not be able to catch up with the people in front of us." ”

Locke hesitated and said, "But, but we are hoplites, are we still hoplites without armor?"

Lloyd pouted and said, "It's time to reload your hair, and it's good to go back alive." ”

At this time, the two of them noticed that the enemy army in the distance was moving, and the long dragon of torches quickly surrounded them, and they were still shrinking the encirclement. Locke angrily said, "." It's over, and I can't run if I want to. With that, he stopped and ordered his troops to gather for defense.

In the dense circular defensive array, after seeing the enemy lineup, Locke smiled bitterly and said to Lloyd: "This battle can't be fought. ”

Lloyd also smiled wryly when he looked at the lineup of the enemy army, the five thousand guys who were wearing messy leather armor and full of fishy smell didn't know what kind of troops they were, and they didn't know their specialty, but looking at their muscular knotted arms, they knew that they were not easy to mess with.

Looking at the five thousand enemy troops with various bows and arrows, Lloyd swallowed even more. On the battlefield of Shenlong Pass, they have seen the power of bows and arrows with their own eyes, and even if the heavy armor they are wearing is shot squarely, they will not escape death.

And what made Lloyd feel the most desperate was the 5,000 hoplites, although they had not yet rushed to the battlefield to fight the enemy hoplites, but they clearly saw that their own soldiers' weapons were difficult to break through the enemy's defenses, and the enemy's weapons cut into the heavy armor of their own soldiers.

As hoplite captains, Lloyd and Locke knew a thing or two about smelting and metal, as they knew from their own and enemy battles. The texture of the enemy's armor is much higher than your own's, and the enemy's weapons are much sharper than your own. Look at these murderous hoplites in front of you, although the size is not as exaggerated as the enemy army on the Shenlong Pass, but the same armor is not fake. This caused the two corps commanders to rush to a burst of despair.

Lloyd and Locke looked at each other and uttered two words almost simultaneously: "Surrender." ”

After surrounding the remnants of the enemy's heavy army, Hank pouted and arrogantly stepped out of the crowd, shouting from afar, "Surrender or surrender." Either die. With that, he turned around and left. Hank didn't really try to persuade the fish in the net, he was just going through the motions. When he was ready to return, he ordered the archers to shoot and ravage the lambs to the slaughter with a stalk.

Hank even already has a specific plan, if the enemy army does not move, he will use bows and arrows to burn and slowly eat, and if the enemy army counterattacks, then he will retreat with his own people, and when the iron guys can't run, he will use bows and arrows to play with them slowly. As for his 5,000 heavily armed cavalry, Hank's plan was to wait for the enemy to counterattack their rear laterally, scraping the ground layer by layer like an onion.

However, just as Hankzhi was walking back triumphantly, a voice that he was extremely unwilling to hear came: "Wait, we have something to say." ”

Hank, who had his back to the enemy, grabbed the reins of his horse, his expression changed for a while, and he planned to continue the attack as if he didn't hear it, but thinking that Wang Yong had tried to avoid damage to his own soldiers, Hank still turned his horse's head with the last glimmer of hope, and urged the horse to come to the front of the two armies under the protection of a group of guards, and looked at the two guys wearing cloaks who were walking slowly with resentment.

Locke and Lloyd had already decided to surrender, so, as a sign of goodwill, they did not bring an escort. The two of them walked with heavy steps to stand more than ten meters away from Hank, and when Locke spoke: "I am Locke, the commander of the thirteenth heavy infantry regiment of the Eternal Empire, and he is the commander of the fourteenth heavy infantry regiment, Lloyd, may I ask your Excellency what to call him." ”

Hank rolled his eyes and said, "I'm Hank, the commander of the Navy of the Seaside Province, if you have something, hurry up and start fighting, and go home and sleep early when you are done." Lloyd and Locke rolled their eyes when they heard what kind of navy Hank was, but they also heard Hank's impatience and provocation.

Lloydra stopped the hot-tempered Locke, smiled and said to Hank: "It turned out to be Captain Hank, that's the case, I have discussed with Captain Locke, in order to avoid too many soldiers on both sides of you and me, do we think we should find a more peaceful solution?"

Hank heard the meaning of the other party's softness, and felt that Hank, who had not fought, was disappointed, but after a while, Hank smiled sinisterly and said provocatively: "You shameless invasion of our seashore, and now you can't fight and ask for peace, how can there be such a good thing?"

Locke gritted his teeth and said, "We are soldiers, and we are only here to obey orders from above. ”

Hank said disdainfully, "Okay, call your guy over to come and talk to me." ”

Locke gasped and said, "Commander Newman just died. ”

Hank was startled and said, "Damn, it turns out that the goods are hanging, I said why did you all run away?" (to be continued......)
