CHAPTER XXXVII
Karen and Brewster converged and began to charge the king's army, knowing that the sky was gradually darkening, and the sound of fighting on the battlefield gradually disappeared. At this time, even those who were as strong as Karene and Brutus were exhausted.
"Brutus, don't be in pursuit, now count the soldiers and horses, and stop here. "Karen's side has already sensed that the offensive on her side is already at the end of the crossbow, and it may not be good to continue the attack.
Brutus had also noticed it, and after sighing, he said, "Okay, collect the troops!"
After defeating the thousand men on Karen's side, they joined up with Brutus, and the king's army was dispersed. In the face of this messy battlefield, there is no time for Brewster to stay and clean up the battlefield.
Brewster just exchanged a brief greeting with Karen and said, "Thanks to you, otherwise these people would definitely make it difficult for me." Why did you guys come out all of a sudden? ”
"This group is a lot smaller than the others, so I suspect they might have some men left here to protect the camp. Although he kept an extra hand, he also underestimated us too much, without the people inside, his troops here are much smaller than those in other places, so we simply divided our troops, and it can be regarded as easy to kill. At that time, I found that the other party had set up an ambush here. Karene said.
"Haha, Sister Karen, you always perceive these things in the slightest place, and in this alone, you are much better than Sister Charlotte. Brutus laughed, and then gave the team a brief rest, replenished some food and grass, and then prepared to continue the march.
Although Karene was also anxious to support His Highness, but looking at the already exhausted team, she still stopped Brewster and said, "In your current state, even if you go, it won't help much, so it's better to just take a break." ”
Karen could see it, and Brewster could see it, hesitated for a moment, and then agreed to Karen's proposal, so the cottage began a rare carnival.
"Sister Karen, don't you want to have a drink?"
"I don't like to drink this thing. Karin said, then looked at the drunken Brutus, and said, "You should drink less, and when the party is over, there will be other things to discuss." ”
"You know, I'm still more or less measured about this. Brutus said, and then, continuing, "In this battle, we won the war of 20,000 men with only 4,000 men, but many people were killed and wounded, and at this time, let them forget all this, this is the first step for His Highness to become the overlord after all." In the future, how many people will survive, who knows?"
"Hmm,"
Karen and they are not sentimental people, but, even so, after a victory, it is still difficult to calm down the thought of the dead warriors, and even more so of the same warriors, so they organize such a carnival.
After the carnival was over, Brutus came to Kalian's big tent and said: "Your Highness's situation there is not very smooth, although we successfully prevented the convergence of the king's army, but still converged more than 30,000 people, His Highness's first line of defense and second line of defense have been breached, and the third line of defense is only a temporary line of defense, His Highness may not be able to hold it, if he can't hold His Highness to retreat, or like this lord to flee again, it's still good, I'm afraid ......"
"I'm just afraid, Your Highness will fight to the death like the last time, so let's quickly return to help?" However, our soldiers are already tired from the days of fighting, so if you want to support......" Karen said with some concern.
"Even if the tired army arrives, it can hardly be regarded as combat strength. Brewster said.
"That's good. ”
"It's best to rest for three days, this is necessary, but although you are fighting the same, but the intensity is low, you can rest for two days, and for the rest, trust Your Highness." It can only be so, I really don't understand why His Highness left five thousand people to defend against the attack of the Empire. ”
"Once the empire attacked, it would inevitably happen to Bai Tingyue, so that there would be no problem with leaving most of the troops. ”
"Obviously, His Highness has already given it to Gray to deal with, and he only needs to leave a part of the troops to defend, and it's completely fine. ”
"It's just that these people are completely unable to defend against the Empire, this is a huge variable, and on the battlefield, how can the possibility be handed over to a variable. ”
"You, like Your Highness, are too conservative. If there are 5,000 mobile troops, I am afraid that the king will already be able to take the piece. ”
"The best of both worlds is rare, and His Highness is unwilling to let the empire come, so he has to take the risk of the king. Just like now, His Highness is at a point of extreme threat. ”
After a moment of silence, Karen grabbed Brutus and asked, "What information did you get?"
"Don't be so murderous, I'm your brother. Brutus said, reaching Karen's ear, and said, "I don't say anything else, but Your Highness is the person you like very much, sister, and I won't stand idly by." ”
"Say, what's going on?"
"It had rained in the town before, torrential rain. ”
"What's ...... this," Karlian was stunned suddenly, "didn't the artillery arrive smoothly?"
"Well, although I don't worship His Highness as much as you and Sister Charlotte, I still have a deep feeling for His Highness's words, that is, it is up to people to make things happen, and it is up to heaven to make things happen. God, it's never been good for us. ”
Karen pushed hard to the side and said, "You know this, why don't you just go to meet His Highness." ”
"It's very simple, because another woman gave me news, that's why I'm here. ”
"Sister Charlotte?"
"Holy Maiden, Fiona. Although she did not directly support His Highness with her people, the large army pressed the territory and pinned down part of the King's army. ”
"How could she?......" Karlian was a little puzzled, and Brutus began to explain.
"This is when I was wandering behind enemy lines, and my whereabouts were finally caught by the people of the church. Although the church is nominally our ally, we have been enemies with them for many years, and we originally planned to kill people, but that woman appeared, and with only one move, I was subdued. ”
"A move?" said Karen with some solemnity.
"Although careless, I think even if it's really serious, it's still only ten moves, and Sister Charlotte won't be her enemy of a hundred moves. Brewster said, and then said with emotion, "Obviously she is a saint of the church, but she can calm down and cultivate, Sister Charlotte has too much for us, so she obviously has the ultimate talent, but she can only reach the peak of refinement, and she has not even reached the realm of qi." However, the Holy Maiden has already reached the intermediate level of qi, and it can be said that she has already touched the advanced threshold of qi. One person can lower the number of people in tens of thousands of troops. ”
