"Lord Commander-in-Chief, the Falcon Army's defensive combat power is too strong, and it is difficult for our army to attack it!"

The battle report from the front made the face of Algernon Katya, who was pressing the battle behind, gloomy face, his palms holding the horsewhip were full of sweat, tens of thousands of troops fought fiercely in the middle of the night, and a slope that seemed to be no danger at all became a natural barrier to block tens of thousands of elites.

In this land of about 200 meters long slope, the two armies faced each other, and the Southwest Army, known as the elite of a hundred battles, drove up one regiment after another, killing flesh and blood, but it was difficult to shake the opponent's defense line in the slightest, but there was a faint tendency to be defeated by the opponent's counterattack.

Algernon Katya's two eyebrows were completely twisted together, "Sure enough, the sequelae of the 7-day journey in a row are still revealed, the continuous fierce battles have made every soldier go all out, the two sides are fighting for the body, the will, their own side is a tired division, and the other party is hiding in Biye Valley to wait for work, this battle is becoming more and more unfavorable to our army!" He glanced at the white line in the distance with restless eyes, it was a sign of dawn, and the feeling of uneasiness in his heart became heavier and heavier, it was not just an intuition,

Algernonkatya was able to serve as the commander-in-chief of the southwest, not all relying on the shadow of the family, and he was also praised by the Gallic Empire military circles as the most talented genius of the younger generation, he knew very well that once the sky cleared, his advantage of raiding Biye Valley by night would be gone, but the other party could be on the high ground of Biye Valley, and he would know the situation at a glance, and when the time came, whether he continued to fight or chose to evacuate, it would be very difficult!

Algernonkatya is also a resolute person, and when he found that he could not achieve results in a short period of time, he decisively decided to give up.

Rather than achieving a momentary victory, Algernonkatya needed to consider how to bring the 60,000-strong army back safely, and although the raid was unsuccessful, it was not until it was fully withdrawn to the southwest. knocked the Falcon Army hard, and it can be regarded as a half-catty fight with the Falcon Army, with such an idea, Algernonkatya made up his mind,

"Today will be a rare good weather, huh?" Algernonkatya smiled bitterly at the corner of his mouth with a deep sense of helplessness, the sky in the distance could already see the red light before sunrise, he raised his hand and ordered the herald behind him, "Order all combat regiments to withdraw and rest!

As the order was given, the Southwestern Army, which was engaged in the front, retreated like a tidal wave. The sound of fierce battle suddenly calmed down, and a bloodied general of the Southwest Army who withdrew from the front ran over angrily from the front, grabbed the herald's collar, and asked with bloodshot eyes, "Say, who ordered the army to withdraw, if you don't say it, I will kill you immediately!"

"Yes...... It's the Commander-in-Chief!" The herald's face turned pale with fright, in front of the tower-strong general. He was as weak as a chicken

"Your Excellency ...... Commander-General"

Like him, many generals were very dissatisfied with the evacuation order, and one general even said, "Why did you order us to withdraw! Give me another half an hour." Our army will be able to tear through the enemy's defenses"

"yes, it's only half an hour!"

The generals were excited, and the Southwestern Army fought fiercely in the middle of the night, with more than 5,000 casualties. The opposite slope was littered with the corpses of soldiers of the Southwest Army, and the generals' eyes were full of unwillingness, even though they were facing their immediate superiors. There was also a sense of indignation in his tone, "Half an hour, are you questioning me?" Algernonkatya's majestic gaze swept over several people, and he snorted heavily, "Don't dare!" Several generals realized their gaffes, and hurriedly didn't dare to gnaw, "I know what you're thinking! There's no need to be so forbearing, everyone is a soldier, and my mood is the same as you!" Algernonkatya looked at their unconvinced faces,

"Then the Commander-in-Chief is still ......" One of the generals opened his mouth, and finally said nothing at the signal of his companion's gaze

Algernon Katya said with a stern expression, "Our army has been fighting fiercely for more than 2 hours, and the other side still shows no signs of collapse, and there will not be much progress if we continue to advance, what half an hour or something like that, but we are just deceiving ourselves!" "On the contrary, compared with the enemy, our army has been on the road for 7 consecutive days before this, the army is exhausted, and it is already the limit to forcibly launch a 2-hour assault, in such a stalemate, when a large number of enemy reinforcements arrive, Biye Valley is the death place of our 60,000 troops!"

"Look at your soldiers, do they still have the strength to fight?" Algernonkatya pointed at the retreating troops, "Soldier ......" The generals looked at each other, not knowing what the commander-in-chief meant by this, and when they turned their heads, they all stood there, the whole army was in chaos, seeing the withdrawn troops, sitting on the ground scattered, weapons thrown aside, many people lying on the ground like this, although it was winter, but many soldiers untied the armor on their bodies, and their whole bodies were steaming, which in the past, such a scattered scene, in the strict military discipline of the Southwest Army is completely unimaginable, "This is really ...... Shame on the generals' faces, as Commander Algernonkatya said, the soldiers have reached the point of exhaustion,

Once the other party discovers and grasps this point, and suddenly launches a fierce counterattack, will these tired soldiers who have difficulty even wielding their swords be able to fight? The answer is clear in everyone's minds, no, and will soon collapse, when the army will collapse like a landslide, and then this Biye Valley will be stained red by the blood of the Southwest Army" When victory is about to be achieved, it is really unwilling to abandon the target and retreat like this!" Algernonkatya said in a deep voice, full of regret, "But this is war, as a commander-in-chief, I can't send tens of thousands of troops to the point of no return because of personal impulse, in the history of imperial wars, there have been too many things because the commander can't let go of the target, and finally be eaten by the enemy, okay, let's straighten out the troops, let's evacuate immediately!" Algernonkatya turned around, took a deep breath, his eyes contained unwillingness, his fists clenched together, and his ten fingers were slightly white because of excessive force! "It's really unwilling to give up like this!" The words also lingered in his mind

"陛xià. The Southwestern Army seems to be trying to slip away!" Looking at the Southwestern Army, which had withdrawn and excluded the marching queue, Statunko, who had led the Southern Army in a fierce battle for half the night, limped over, his shoes and boots were still stained with red blood, and he stepped on the white snow, leaving a string of bloody footprints

"Isn't that what we expected?"

A cold light flashed in the fat man's slightly squinted eyes, and the golden morning light in the distance had jumped up from the horizon of the earth, like a horizontal line, turning the earth into two worlds of light and darkness.

From the height of Biye Valley, you can see that a swift forward black line is speeding from the forest about 1000 meters on the side of the valley, like a wind, unstoppable, it is the 5,000 cavalry of the Falcon Army, which is the sum of all the cavalry that the fat man can mobilize at present, and it is also the sharpest knife that has been withstanding for most of the night. If it was a head-on engagement, the surprise attack of 5,000 cavalry might only disrupt the position of the Southwestern Army.

But now, it's been a seven-day journey. The Southwest Army, which had been fighting fiercely with the Falcon Army for half the night, still has the ability to block this torrent of steel? "Can't!"

There is no doubt about the answer, even if it is a fat man who is known as the god of war, in this sudden situation. can only choose to flee in panic,

And at this moment, the tired army is in front of the cavalry onslaught. Even the most basic resistance could not be launched, not to mention that the Southwest Army resting below was still ignorant of it,

They were forming a long line, and an infantry force of about 10,000 people was in charge of breaking the rear, and all the attention of the Southwest Army was on the Falcon Army on the hillside, without knowing that their weak flanks were completely exposed to the impact arc of the Falcon Cavalry, "This is a massacre!"

Statunko looked at the fluttering battle flag of the Southwest Army below with a cold face, which was torn apart by the rapidly impacting black line, and the cavalry cut into the scene of the entire column of the Southwest Army, like a mass of spinning spikes and flails smashed heavily on the thin armor, and the fragments were splashed, and even the hundreds of soldiers of the Southwest Army who were in contact with it first could be clearly seen, directly swept into the galloping war horses, and turned into a ball of flesh on the ground, "Kill!" Five thousand falcon cavalry knives, like a river of light turned up in the morning light, the horse's hooves roared, the earth trembled, the falcon cavalry moved forward neatly, and then suddenly rushed towards the southwest army like an avalanche at 200 meters by the arc of the slope, "Mom, cavalry!" The chaotic infantry was completely suppressed by the cavalry, and the black cavalry with the roaring blood had already struck by their side like a hurricane, bringing up a rush of blood, and the head of the big man was slashed into the air by a sharp blade, and the cavalry came like rolling thunder.

The extremely tired Southwestern Army ran around like frightened ducks, "Lord Commander-in-Chief, a large number of Falcon cavalry have been found on the left flank of our army! The Fifth and Seventh Legions have been completely disorganized! The other legions have also begun to fluctuate" A general galloped on horseback out of breath, "Cavalry!" Algernonkatya's head was stunned, the worst he had envisioned had been confirmed, but the other side did not use infantry to counterattack, but used cavalry to impact himself "Bastard, I should have thought of it" Algernonkatya's hand holding the reins made a creaking sound, in the terrain of Biye Valley, it was the best battlefield for cavalry to crisscross! The timing of the cavalry's appearance was so accurate, there was no other possibility except for an ambush in advance, "This is a trap!" After beating a clever fight, Algernonkatya gritted his teeth and asked loudly, "Where is Francis, where is Francis now?"

"Because the troops collapsed and it was difficult to fight again, Duke Francis's Bangor army withdrew in the second half of last night!" said the general with a panicked expression

"Bastard, it must be Francis, he betrayed us!" Algernonkatya's face was full of rage, and he gritted his teeth as if he was going to eat someone, "Lord Commander-in-Chief, what should we do now?" "Sue Belif of the Fifth Army and Zamsa of the Sixth Army, no matter what, you must withstand the cavalry of the other side! Give the other armies time to break away from the battlefield of Biye Valley! The terrain here is flat, which is not conducive to the engagement of our army, and if the opponent's frontal troops and cavalry are flanked, no one of our troops will be able to withdraw from Biye Valley!" Do you mean to abandon the Fifth and Sixth Armies?" asked the general, who had come to report with a shudder, and his voice trembled

"Now, do we have any other choice? In any case, we must hold on, if the Legion Commander is killed. It is the adjutant commander, and if the adjutant is killed, the first squadron leader directly under him will serve as the commander, and so on, until the last man in the battle!" A trace of silence flashed on Algernonkatya's face, and he raised his horsewhip: "As a soldier, you should have the consciousness to face this day! After the tens of thousands of troops are broken, although they still die honorably, as for their families, I, the Algernon family, will treat them kindly! They can completely rest assured!"

"Okay. I hope the Commander-in-Chief will keep his promise!" the general walked away with a choking cold

"Run, if you don't want to die, run!" The left flank of the Southwest Army was completely chaotic, and countless black cavalry rushed through the middle of the hastily formed column like a cluster of arrows off the string, and the fierce impact sound came with the wind, and the powerful impact force cut the ranks of the Southwest Army into pieces, and the soldiers of the Southwest Army flew or fell to the ground in pieces, only in two minutes of contact. Like a strong wind blowing down weak grass, it forcibly broke the troops on the flank of the Southwest Army, "Kill!" The passionate shouting of killing made all the soldiers of the Southwest Army tremble.

One row, two rows, three rows. The impact of the falcon cavalry in a queue was completely in a crushing posture that did not shy away, forcibly making a strategic cross-cutting of the flank of the southwestern infantry, and lined up the southwestern army that marched into the queue. In the face of the sudden flank attack of a large number of cavalry, it was simply impossible to mobilize troops in time to respond,

The army was completely left in a situation of fighting on its own. One by one, the flags of the squadron crumbled under the onslaught of the falcon cavalry, and in the face of the falcon cavalry, panic began to spread like a plague from the middle of the array to the entire line. Tired and demoralized. The powerful impact of the high-speed cavalry troops on the flat terrain is vividly reflected,

"Everybody's rallying to me!"

Belif, the commander of the Fifth Army of the Southwest Army, who was as strong as an iron tower, brandished his sword, stood under the banner of the Legion, and shouted hoarsely, in front of him, more than a hundred elite infantry directly under the Legion raised their bayonet spears neatly, and the tips of the long spears moved forward in unison, as if a forest composed of spears suddenly appeared on the ground, and the tips of the spears flashed with a terrible light of metal,

"Rush over and cut off that flag!"

Legion battle flags with golden tassels, which quickly became a target for the Falcon Cavalry,

With the terrible sound of hooves and shouts of killing, a team of 100 falcon cavalry flashed with knife light, and the rapid killing speed was like a huge scythe, and the dozen or so southwestern infantry in the front disappeared in an instant, followed by countless heavy horse hooves kicked down,

"Kill!"

At this moment, the blood of the warriors on both sides surged, and the spear pierced into the abdomen of the war horse in front of him, causing a rain of blood, and the falcon cavalry above was thrown off the horse as if it had been hit hard, and fell on the spear below.

"Well done!"

Before Beliff's shout could be fully uttered, he was stunned to see the cavalrymen who had fallen from their horses, completely ignoring their own lives and deaths, and using their bodies as companions behind them, holding down the spears that were erected towards the front

"No, it shouldn't be like this!" believ cried bitterly,

"Bang, Bang, Bang!" lost the resistance of the spears, and the southwestern infantry was quickly knocked to the ground by the cavalry rushing from behind, and the cavalry that followed completely trampled them under the hooves of the horses, followed by the second row, the third row, and everywhere there was the sound of broken spears and broken guns,

Finally, the tall Belif was trampled under the hooves of countless war horses, and the battle flag of the Fifth Legion was cut off with a single sword, and the golden tassels fell in the air

"My lord, the commander of the Fifth Army, Bellive, has been killed! The Commander-in-Chief ordered our army to defend to cover the withdrawal of the main force of the army!"

The bad news from the flanks made the commander of the Sixth Army, Zamsa, know that he had no way to retreat, and in front of him, the army formation of the infantry, like paper paste, in front of the black cavalry swept by the wind, his own soldiers fell one after another like ripe ears of wheat

"It's really unwilling!But as a soldier, let's do something in general" Zamsa pulled out his sword with a wry smile on the corner of his mouth, his troops were already in chaos, and his war horse jumped high, like a swift cluster of arrows rushing towards the black cavalry cluster in front,

Kill!" Zamsa shouted with all his might, his sword stabbing into the chest of a staggered falcon cavalry with the sound of the wind,

The horses intersected, like two huge clusters of arrows colliding at the same time, the horses neighed and fell, the knight above was covered in blood and flipped off the horse's back, the long sword pierced through the chest of the falcon cavalryman, and the sharp blade completely pierced the horseman's body

"Poof"

Several falcon cavalry knives also struck at the same time, slashing mercilessly past him, bright red blood squirting out from between Zamsa's armor like water squeezed out of a pipe burst!

"Lord Commander-in-Chief, after the Fifth Legion, the Legion flag of the Sixth Legion is also broken!"

Ardev Katya, who was rushing to the mouth of Biye Valley with his troops, heard the news, and his face was gloomy and wanted to drip water.

In the case of sacrificing 20,000 troops of two legions in a row, at least he guaranteed that he would be able to escape back with more people,

He glanced at the Biye Taniguchi in front of him, the spacious Taniguchi had no obstacles, and his face finally showed a look of relief,

Vecchia Falcon, no matter how powerful you are in front of you, not blocking Taniguchi is your biggest failure!"Your Majesty, the other party is already approaching Taniguchi! Are we ......" On the slope in the rear, Statunko reported to the fat man with a hesitant expression

Below the slope, the troops in charge of the Southwest Army have been completely defeated, and the mountains are full of scattered soldiers, but where can they flee?

Although the interior of Biye Valley is spacious, it is surrounded by a basin and uplift, except for the valley mouth and this slope, there is no other way to get out, and the final outcome of these routs is only two, surrender or die!

"The other party's strong man's broken wrist is also tragic, but unfortunately, do they really think that Taniguchi will be so unprepared and open?"

The fat man looked at the battlefield below with cold eyes, raised his right hand and waved his hand at Statunko, "Light the fire, I don't want this extremely valuable Southwest Commander-in-Chief to be blown up like this! Order all the troops to advance in a queue, I want to capture him and his Southwest Army alive!" (To be continued......)
